Chapter 428: Internal and external troubles are chaotic
In the Song Dynasty, the central institutions that governed the forbidden soldiers and the box soldiers included the front division of the palace, the horse military division of the guard east army, and the infantry division of the guard pro-army, which were collectively called the three ya.
It's a pity that the Sanya forbidden army stationed outside the city to defend the imperial city is not like Zhonglin's impulsive 800,000 forbidden army.
At the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China, perhaps the forbidden army really had 1.8 million, but now it is not what it used to be, and since the accession of Xiaozong Zhao Yan, the army has been screened, so the number of forbidden troops guarding the capital has totaled more than 100,000 people!
But since ancient times, the military camp has been reported by imaginary numbers, so the registered forbidden army has completely exposed the real number of people in this dispatch.
The so-called 100,000 forbidden army, only 60,000 can really fight against the number, and then pick out those old, weak, sick and disabled soldiers, and only 40,000 can really go into battle against the enemy!
Of the 100,000 forbidden troops, only 40,000 have combat effectiveness, which undoubtedly casts a haze on the originally tense government and the opposition.
Lin'an, which was originally full of flowers, is now extremely depressed!
The closest army to the capital Lin'an is Gu Shi, the envoy of Jiangnan East Road, whose 80,000 troops have broken through the local military defense line of Huizhou, and it only takes three days to reach Lin'an City.
At the same time, Ma Chengqian of Jiangnan West Road has also led an army of 90,000 under his command, and he directly broke through the Xinzhou defense line all the way, and followed Gu Shi to Lin'an.
The 60,000 naval divisions of Fuzhou, which started from Fuzhou and were farthest from the capital, had already led the fleet to Lin'an by Zhong Yiguo himself. At this moment, he has led the army to the coast of Wenzhou and is approaching the direction of Qingyuan Mansion.
As long as you arrive at Qingyuan Mansion, it is close to the capital.
This also confirms what Ye Yu said when he inspected Fuzhou's coastal defense during his trip to eastern Zhejiang: as long as King Fu has a huge sea fleet, he can directly sail north from the port of Fuzhou to Lin'an.
However, this time it was different, and that was because the Zhedong Naval Division of the Jin State was also involved in the war.
This time the sea is lively, the sailors of the Jin Kingdom are approaching Lin'an from north to south, and the Fuzhou sailors of King Fu are from south to north, and their intention is also to close Lin'an.
This time, Admiral Li Bao of the Sea can be said to have encountered two strong sea teams, and the tripartite fleets formed a triangular posture at the mouth of the Yangtze River, completely opening up the situation of fighting on the water.
The war at the border pass was scorching, and King Fu's three-way army was also advancing at a very fast speed, and this situation of internal and external troubles was unexpected by everyone.
All of a sudden, the various roads south of Jianghuai have been completely chaotic, and most of the garrison generals of the Great Song Dynasty have been transferred to the three-way front.
Among them, although there are troops in their hands, they are indifferent when King Fu rebels, and they sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight.
Because for them, this time has become a troubled time.
Help the court exterminate King Fu's rebels?
This is obviously a fantasy thing, because these three roads have a total of more than 200,000 troops, how can they be wiped out lightly?
Help King Fu rebel together?
This is obviously a great rebellion, so this kind of thing must not be done.
Therefore, these people can only sit on the sidelines and watch the play, even if they receive an edict from the imperial court, they will not be very concerned......
This tense situation and atmosphere has also directly affected the people of Beijing. There was a lot of talk in and out of the city, and there was anxiety and anger, but there was also more fear.
When the war ignited at the border pass, the people of Lin'an City could say irresponsibly: "Their lives and deaths don't care about my business?" I just need to live my life and become a ......"
Although this kind of remark seems very indifferent, it is a realistic thought of the common people.
However, now that the flames of war have burned on their own ass and stocks, this naturally closes their ass and things. Therefore, all day long, whether it is businessmen or ordinary people in the capital, they all discuss this matter.
For the people, it doesn't matter who is the emperor, because that is what the civil and military generals consider, care about, and stubborn. What they care about is this war without suspense, whether they will frantically grab strong men to defend the city because of resistance.
History only records the victories and defeats of wars, highlighting the names and exploits of people, but the thoughts of these ordinary people are not known.
Everyone in the world appreciates Guo Ziyi and Li Guangbi, who quelled the Anshi Rebellion, and it can be seen whether the people of the Tang Dynasty at that time really praised them unanimous.
If it is unanimously praised, where did Du Fu's three officials come from?
These six long poems, each of which narrates the tragic fate of the Tang army to capture the strong Ding and fill the army to fight against the Hu people. Perhaps in the eyes of those people, the Tang army at that time was no better than the Hu people.
The people are selfish, but they don't need to hide it; The civil and military are selfless, but they cover up with righteousness!
……
In the pavilion of Wu's mansion, Ye Yu chatted with Wu Xi about the feelings of the people in the city about the war.
Hearing Ye Yu's words, Wu Xi was stunned for a moment, and his half of his bruised black skin showed a little surprise.
Because this kind of words came out of Ye Yu's mouth, it was really unusual, because who was Ye Yu?
That is a major representative of contemporary Shilin literati, that is, Kong Dexian, a descendant of Confucius, who sacrificed wine to the country, and also gave way to this young man.
But now these words are obviously slandering the literati's loyal and patriotic thoughts, and as a civil servant, how can he not be surprised when he says this.
Seeing Wu Xi's stunned expression, Ye Yu smiled and said, "What's the matter, Brother Wu thinks what Ye said is wrong?" ”
"Uh, no, no, no, Lord Ye misunderstood, Wu is just a reckless man, and he doesn't have Lord Ye to guess far-reaching......"
Wu Xi's caution made Ye Yu laugh: "Actually, we are all laymen, and sometimes we are more reckless than literati!" ”
Ye Yu's words did not arouse Wu Xi's interest, he just smiled slightly, and his words and deeds were very rigorous.
Now the coach who is fighting against the Jin soldiers on the West Road in Shaanchuan is Wu Ting, the father of Wu Xi in front of him. Wu Ting was the third generation of power in charge of the Wu Clan's army, and his son Wu Xi was detained in the capital to accompany him.
The meaning of accompanying the driver is to be a hostage, and the Song Dynasty's distrust of military generals has been brought into full play.
In fact, Ye Yu's most recognized and respected the history of the Southern Song Dynasty was the Wu family. Because for the long-term peace and stability of the Great Song Dynasty, the Wu family of Sichuan and Shu can be said to have made an indelible contribution.
Since ancient times, Sichuan and Shu is a wartime need to reserve granary, as long as the battle starts, it is to ask people to have food, there is a reputation of the country of abundance, it is not an exaggeration.
Since ancient times, the Sichuan army has been brave and good at fighting, conquering and killing all directions, or for the unification of the country, or resisting foreign humiliation, all of which have shaken the world and left a name in history!
