In the seventeenth year of Jiading, in 1224 AD, Zhao Yun succeeded to the throne with the support of Shi Miyuan and Empress Yang, and was Emperor Lizong of the Song Dynasty, who died on October 16, 1264 AD, and reigned for forty years.
The forty years of Zhao Yun's reign was a period of rapid decline in the national strength of the Southern Song Dynasty, with the dictatorship of Shi Miyuan, the dictatorship of Ding Daquan, and the dictatorship of Jia Rudao, and the Jin State and the Mongolian Tartars pressing forward step by step, so that the Southern Song Dynasty gradually lost, but unfortunately Zhao Yun did not think of enterprising matters at all, blindly seeking peace and stability, and blindly enjoying himself.
Emperor Zhao Yun didn't do well, the calligraphy was still good, it has been passed down for thousands of years, and it has been affirmed by later generations.
The Manchu civil and military dynasties all know that the emperor is not good, I am afraid that it will not last long, but the sudden death of the emperor still stunned the minister of civil and military affairs, without a trace of warning, at the beginning of the month, the right prime minister, the privy envoy Jia Nidao proposed to build more Yinguan, the emperor also issued a decree to agree, supporting Jia Nidao's proposal, the two major events of the Jingjie push and row law and the earlier silver pass were rolled out at the same time, Jia Nidao was very busy, and the emperor was worried.
When Ouchi's bell came, the civil and military ministers above the fourth rank went towards Ouchi one after another.
The first to arrive was the right prime minister and privy envoy Jia Nidao, and the rest of the civil and military ministers, even if they arrived in Ouchi, would wait outside, and no one would enter the palace in front of Jia Nidao.
Jia Rudao also felt surprised, the emperor's health is indeed not good these days, but that is already the norm, for more than a year, the emperor's body has been bumpy and bumpy, whether it is good or bad, tired of the imperial doctor in the palace.
If he knew that the emperor would die so soon, Jia Rudao would not have continuously implemented the meridian push method and changed the silver pass.
However, Jia Rudao is not in a hurry at all, because the emperor who succeeds to the throne will also support him.
The emperor died, and the new emperor must succeed to the throne immediately, and the country cannot be without a king for a day.
At the request of Jia Rudao, the crown prince Zhao Yu succeeded to the throne and became the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty.
Song Lizong Zhao Yun's funeral has not yet ended, and the emperor's decree has come down.
He was crowned as a Taishi and Pingzhang military affairs, and was crowned the Duke of Wei.
At this moment, Jia Yidao's power has reached its peak.
Jia Rudao was originally the right prime minister, the privy envoy, and the seal of Pingzhang military affairs, which is equivalent to integrating the power of the party, government and army, on this basis, he was also named the Taishi of Zhengyipin, and he was also crowned the king.
Such a favor, the rest of the people dare not imagine it.
And with the passage of time, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty discovered that the emperor was very dependent on Jia Nidao, almost obedient, and every time he discussed matters in the court, the emperor objected slightly to Jia Nidao's proposal, and Jia Nidao immediately threatened to resign, and the emperor obediently complied, begging Jia Nidao not to leave, and even left tears.
Zhao Yu is very respectful of Jia Nidao, this respect is manifested in the bones, the emperor allowed Jia Nidao to be a day for three days, only a month later, he issued an order again, allowing Jia Nidao to be a day for ten days, every time Jia Nidao went to court, the emperor showed great respect, when Jia Nidao left, the emperor got up and watched, until Jia Nidao left, he would sit down.
The story in this, the Chinese military minister did not dare to speak, everyone understands, the emperor Zhao Yu's life was not very good when he was young, but was born in the side room of King Fu Zhao and Rui, when he was pregnant in the stomach, he was bullied by Mrs. Zhengfang, and his mother was forced to take fetal medicine, Zhao Yu's life was big, and he still survived, but because of the influence of fetal medicine, the intelligence was really not good, and there was some taste of retardation.
At the beginning, Zhao Yun of Song Lizong was ready to appoint Zhao Yu as the crown prince, but Wu Qian, the prime minister of Zuo, objected, because he considered that Zhao Yu's intelligence was problematic.
In fact, Song Lizong Zhao Yun also has concerns about this, Zhao Yu has problems in intelligence, and he also found it, so he concentrated the world's famous teachers and professors Zhao Yu, but Zhao Yu is really not enlightened, and sometimes Zhao Yun is dizzy.
However, the bloodline left by the Zhao family, that is, Zhao Yu, Zhao Yun has no choice, and after years of cultivation of Zhao Yu, they also have certain feelings for each other, so Zhao Yun of Song Lizong finally followed Jia Yidao's suggestion, made Zhao Yu the crown prince, and deprecated Wu Qian, the left prime minister who held opposing views.
Invest in peach and repay it.
Jia Rudao is a smart person, he discovered the emperor's flaws, and even found that the emperor was unusually lustful.
The emperor often forgets the time of the court because of entertainment in the harem, and he never bothers to review the recitals, all of which are entrusted to Jia Yidao, and the recitals that must be reviewed are actually handed over to the four most favored concubines to reply.
Jia Nidao has long been in control of the power, but the former emperor Song Lizong still has a little sobriety, Jia Nidao still needs to pay attention to some times, and he dare not offend Song Lizong, now the situation is different, the new emperor completely relies on him, and there is no spectrum at all for how to deal with the affairs of the DPRK and China.
On November 15, exactly one month after the emperor ascended the throne.
It has entered the harsh winter season, but the climate in the capital is not too cold.
An expedited memo was sent to the capital, which was sent by Lu Wende, the envoy of the two Huai systems.
Shouchun in Yongfeng, which is under the jurisdiction of Huainan West Road, and Zhongli, to which Haozhou belongs, were attacked by the Mongol Tatars, and the Mongol Tatars' attacks were unusually brave, and the soldiers defending the city were unable to resist, begging the imperial court to send a large army to help.
Everyone knows the importance of Shouchun and Zhongli, this is the most cutting-edge place of the Great Song Dynasty, Huaibei is occupied by the Mongolian court, and with the danger of the Huai River, the Song army and the Mongolian army confront each other on both sides of the Huai River, Shouchun and Zhongli, is the most cutting-edge position of the Great Song Dynasty, once these two cities are breached, then both Huai will suffer a major impact, and even Luzhou and Jiankang Mansion City, may also be attacked.
The Mongol Tatars who attacked on these two sides were the army led by the Mongol prince Habichi, the head of ten thousand households, and the marshal of the capital, Batuer.
Zhang Rou, who attacked the west road of Lizhou, was slow and unwilling to attack, but the attack on the two Huai Habichi and Batu'er were different, they were full of confidence, eager to take the capital of the Great Song Dynasty Lin'an, and the army they led was mainly Mongolian iron cavalry, and the new annexed army was only supplemented, and the army they led reached 50,000 people, including 20,000 Mongolian iron cavalry.
With such a strong army, it should be invincible wherever it goes.
When the attack was launched, Habichi and Batuer's soldiers were divided into two routes, the 30,000 army led by Habichi, the 20,000 army led by Batuer, Habichi launched an attack on Shouchun, and Batuer launched an attack on Zhongli.
Habichi and Batuer are both among the best generals in Mongolia, and they are even more unusual commanders.
They adopted the same strategy, ordering the new annexed army to break through the Huai River at all costs, while the Mongolian iron cavalry waited behind, and under the desperate attack of the new annexed army, in just two days, the two armies broke through the Huai River and began the siege of Shouchun and Zhongli.
Habichi carefully studied the terrain, and before the battle began, he issued an order that he must take the two cities of Shouchun and Zhongli, and use them as a base camp to launch an attack on the depth of Lianghuai.
Habichi understands that the 50,000 army must have a place to rely on, he is not arrogant enough to think that relying on the 50,000 army, he can destroy the Great Song Dynasty, once the army is attacked, evacuate to Shouchun or Zhongli, you can rely on the danger of the city to stop the Song army's attack, and you can also calmly evacuate to Huaibei.
With a strong city, the Song army stationed in Shouchun and Zhongli resisted desperately, but unfortunately the gap in their strength was too great.
Shouchun and Zhongli were in danger, and the two Huai systems made Lu Wende dare not underestimate them, and even sent his son-in-law Fan Wenhu, who was the deputy commander of the palace division, to lead the troops to help, but unfortunately in the face of the brave Mongolian Tartars, Fan Wenhu was also helpless, in order to avoid being completely annihilated, Zhiqu evacuated.
At this time, Lu Wende realized that something was wrong.
If the two cities of Shouchun and Zhongli are captured and the gates of Lianghuai are opened, then the Mongol Tartars will drive straight in, and they can attack the city of Luzhou or the city of Jiankang.
This is something that Lu Wende dare not imagine.
In this way, the expedited recital was sent to the capital, and Lu Wende sent Fan Wenhu to make a special trip to send the expedited recital.
After receiving Lu Wende's recital, Jia Rudao's face turned pale, of course he knew that it was powerful.
Before waiting for the early dynasty, Lu Wende came to Ouchi. went straight into the vertical arch hall and instructed the lieutenant to invite the emperor.
After waiting for half an hour, the emperor was late.
Jia Rudao's face was already angry, and when he saw the pale emperor, he knew that the emperor was indulging in joy again at night.
"Your Majesty, the two Huai systems made Lu Wende urgently fold, and the Mongolian Tatars attacked Shouchun and Zhongli on the Huainan West Road, these two places are the forefront of our Great Song Dynasty and Mongolia confrontation, if there is any mistake, it will directly affect the land of the two Huai. . . ."
The emperor hadn't woken up yet, and looked at Jia Rudao with an indifferent look.
Finally, when Jia Yidao finished speaking, the emperor's demeanor became a little more serious.
"Prime Minister Jia, I have entrusted you with all matters in the court, I have just ascended the throne, and I am not familiar with the government and politics, so please worry about Prime Minister Jia..."
Jia Rudao was a little stunned, or he hadn't adapted to it in a short period of time, such a major event, if he was replaced by the first emperor, he would immediately convene officials such as the Privy Council, the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Households, and the Ministry of Officials to discuss.
Looking at the emperor's indifferent expression, Jia Rudao shook his head secretly.
"So, the minister summoned the Privy Council and the military department to deliberate. . . ."
Before Jia Yidao finished speaking, the emperor spoke again.
"Everything is subject to the decision made by Prime Minister Jia."
Walking out of the vertical arch hall, Jia Rudao knew that his power was already unlimited, but his responsibility was also greater.
The Mongol Tatars suddenly attacked Lianghuai, which made Jia Yidao a little unable to react, according to his thoughts, the Mongol Tatars should have attacked Sichuan.
Jia Yidao's face became a little gloomy.
He won't go to the early court, it's useless to go, he won't go to the Privy Council, after the emperor ascended the throne, most of the government affairs, Jia Rudao was disposed of in the mansion, and this time will not be an exception. (To be continued.) )
