Chapter 22: Resistance to the Decree

The July Mutiny in Lin'an City was also known as the Renchen Mutiny in later history, which almost affected the development of history, and was heavily written in the history books of later generations, and Zhao Yun was also completely nailed to the pillar of shame in history. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 info If you start from Zhao Yun's point of view, it seems that there is nothing wrong with him doing this, as the last emperor of the Southern Song Dynasty, it seems understandable that he wants to seize power!

However, from the perspective of the overall plan, after he regained control of the government, he adopted a policy of drawing wages from the bottom of the kettle for the Northern Expedition, which had already achieved a phased victory, but he was also guilty of public anger, and because of his distrust of the military, he transferred the soldiers and horses of the front division of the palace and the infantry division to leave the city, which caused deep suffering to the people of Lin'an City.

After the Renchen mutiny, a large number of garrisons in the entire Lin'an City were transferred to the outside of the city, in order to maintain his imperial power, he appointed a group of loyal personnel to use the stragglers to form a so-called loyal army, to serve as the protection force of Lin'an City, because of their lack of troops, so they temporarily recruited soldiers in Lin'an City, as a result, a group of ruffians in Lin'an City took the opportunity to enter the loyal army, turned into an official army, but this group of people did not perform their duties, there was no military discipline at all, but it became a huge disaster in Lin'an City, In the name of arresting the rebellious party, they looted the people's property and robbed the people's daughters, and ran rampant in the city to plague the people.

After this change, a large number of houses were burned, and the people had no fixed place to live, so they could only sleep on the streets, Zhao Yun could not see their suffering, and they did not give relief, they also suffered from the cruel exploitation of the so-called loyal and brave army, which made the people of Lin'an City suddenly miserable, and they hated the emperor comrade who seized power to the bones.

The people's requirements are very simple, that is, to let them have a way to live, whether Gao Huaiyuan and his party are traitors, they can usually talk about it, but when Gao Huaiyuan was in power in Beijing, no matter whether he launched a mutiny or what he did, in short, he did not harm them so much, and the capital and the local economy were prosperous, a large number of corrupt officials were also punished, and the people's lives were stable, so after this great change, the people in the city almost all secretly complained about Zhao Yun, the bastard emperor, and scolded them in private. can't help but start to miss the years when Gao Huaiyuan was in power again. The news of the Renchen Mutiny also spread quickly throughout the Southern Song Dynasty, causing an uproar in the Southern Song Dynasty, and the political situation suddenly began to be turbulent again.

As soon as Zhao Yun took control of the court, he began to do a lot of work, he was the first to order to stop the transfer of materials in front of the army, and to force the army to obey his dispatch and not go to Xuzhou to relieve the siege. . .

Then he issued orders one after another, deposing Zhao Fan, the envoy of Jingdong, Zhao Kui, the envoy of Sichuan, and Chen Boot, the envoy of Qin Feng, and arranged for several ministers recommended by Yu Tianxi for him to take over their positions.

These places can be said to have a direct impact on the development of the war situation, although he did not dare to move the main general of the Zhulu army at the moment, but he listened to Yu Tianxi's suggestion, starting from the local first, cutting off the local support for the military, the army must have food and pay to survive, after cutting off their food and salary, even if the main generals of the army have the ability, they cannot let everyone obey their dispatch.

This is actually a continuation of the salary draw plan at the bottom of the kettle, in short, it is a purpose, first to control local government affairs, force the generals of the military to obey the will of the imperial court, and then slowly deal with these descendants cultivated by Gao Huaiyuan...

Zhen Dexiu, as the head of the civil ministers, did not say a word in Zhao Yun's decision-making this time, ignoring Zhao Yun's nonsense, and in the name of the right minister, he supported Zhao Yun's restoration.

In order to eliminate the power of Gao Huaiyuan in the court, he connected many civil officials who did not belong to Gao Huaiyuan's line, imprisoned their whole families, and confiscated their family property, so that almost no one in the court dared to raise a little objection to his decision-making in the court. On July 4, Zhao Yun had just seized power, and on July 9, Zhao Yun issued an order to take away Ji Xiancheng, Wei Liaoweng, and Liu Dayong...... On July 8, Wei Liaoweng died in prison, Liu Dayong died on July 9, and Ji Xiancheng was imprisoned in the city on July 12......

In less than ten days, many of the Beijing officials of the Gao Huaiyuan family in the capital were beheaded in the city, Lin'an City trembled under such a terror, and every day in the downtown in the south of the city had to kill a large number of officials and their families, and the downtown of Lin'an City was almost a river of blood. . .

Several of the generals of Gao Huaiyuan's line stationed outside the city were forced to enter the city, and they were immediately arrested, and the rest of the generals heard the news in the city, although there was a decree to ask them to enter the city, but they immediately refused, either they could not get out of the barracks due to illness, or simply ignored them, Zhao Yun was even more jealous of them, and strictly ordered the city gates to be closed, prohibiting idle people from entering and leaving the city gates, resulting in piles of garbage in Lin'an City, no one to deal with it, and the people who suffered could not survive, and could only beg along the streets.

A series of holy decrees were issued in Lin'an City, rushed to all parts of the country, and sent the imperial decrees of appointment and dismissal to all parts of the country, even when Gao Huaiyuan was in power, there was never such a large-scale personnel adjustment, and as a result, many local officials were in danger and had no intention of government affairs, resulting in the failure of government decrees and the beginning of chaos throughout the country. . . .

All this happened in just half a month after Zhao Yun's restoration, and the political affairs of the entire Southern Song Dynasty fell into chaos.

The officials were worried about their official hats, and the transfer envoys were deposed and replaced one by one, and almost all the grain and straw materials that were originally being transferred to the northern front line were stopped, and the armies on the front line immediately began to have a shortage of food. ā€œā€¦ā€¦ Zicha, who is also aware of the Privy Council's affairs and a doctor of martial arts, Hua Yue, has conspired against him, and now resigns from his current official position and returns to Beijing immediately...... Chin this! A eunuch of the Yellow Gate trembled, holding a scroll of Huang Juan's holy decree, standing in the tent of the handsome, and read it to Hua Yue and the generals in the army.

"Fuck you! Fart! Vice Marshal Hua has rebelled! Full of nonsense! You bastard, you dare to go to the army to announce the decree, I think you are tired of life! Come! Drag this guy out and cut it down! Without waiting for Hua Yue to speak, an adjutant general jumped up and pointed at the eunuch who ran to the army to announce the decree and scolded...

When the eunuch heard this, he urinated on the crotch of his pants, and as soon as his hand shook the holy decree, he fell to the ground, crying: "No wonder I am! I just came here to announce the decree by order, how dare I, a yellow man, convict Vice Marshal Hua? This is the will of God today! I don't care if you listen to me or not, but if I don't come to proclaim the decree, I'm going to lose my head! Don't kill me! Don't kill me! ā€

Hua Yue's face was gloomy, he raised his hand to stop the generals' actions, and asked the Yellow Gate eunuch, "What about my family?" ā€

Huang Men was so frightened that he sat on the ground and kowtowed to Hua Yue again and again: "I can't blame me for this matter!" Vice Marshal Hua's family has been imprisoned by the saint, and they are still in prison in Dali Temple for the time being, and the other small ones don't know! ā€¦ā€¦ā€

Yue Kun's face is also very unpleasant, their Yue family has been loyal for generations, and it can be said that they are loyal to the Zhao family, but why can't the people of the Zhao family help them so much? His grandfather Yue Fei saw that the Northern Expedition was about to succeed, at least the recovery of the Central Plains was already in sight, but he was recalled to Lin'an by Zhao Gou's twelve gold medals, and then instructed Qin Hui and others to convict him of a trumped-up crime and unjustly die in the Storm Pavilion, and the great Northern Expedition was over...

Now they finally fought to such a point, but this emperor jumped out at this time to dismantle the stage.

Could it be that this is the fate of the Zhao family? Should they be angry with the Zhao family? Why is it so difficult to do something for the country?

"Tell me about Lin'an as it is, if it's half false, be careful of your head!" Yue Kun first stopped the hustle and bustle of the generals under him, and lowered his head to ask the eunuch who announced the decree...

So the frightened eunuch of the Yellow Gate didn't dare to hide it for half a sentence, and told Yue Kun and Hua Yue how Yu Tianxi gathered the emperor's relatives and some officials who were dissatisfied with Gao Huaiyuan to make trouble this time, as long as he knew, he didn't dare to hide it at all, and added a sentence at the end: "These things were all planned by Yu Tianxi, the small one is just a small Yellow Gate in the Inner Servant Province, and he didn't participate in this matter at all, and the little one was forced to come here to announce the decree!" Everyone knows that coming here to proclaim the decree is a matter of nine deaths, if the little one is the emperor's henchman, he will not let the little one come here to die! I beg you generals to spare your lives! ā€

"Yu Tianxi should be cut with a thousand cuts! All those involved in this matter should be cut with a thousand cuts! "Even if Yue Kun's temper is relatively mild, he can't help it!

"Vice Marshal Hua! What do you want to do about this? Zheng Bingjie suddenly asked Hua Yue...

Hua Yue's heart was like a knife at this moment, he thought about his wife and children at home, and thought of his youngest son, who was only seven or eight years old, his two hands were clenched into fists, the green tendons jumped high out of the surface of his skin, his face was pale, and he didn't speak for a long time.

ā€œļ¼ It's a big deal! Vice Marshal Hua simply took us to Lin'an City and slaughtered these bastards! A Huayue general scolded and shouted.

Li Ruohu was also furious at this time, and couldn't help but say to Hua Yue: "So far, we can't sit idly by!" The marshal is still surrounded in Xuzhou, dragging the Wokotai army for our Zhulu army, and there is danger at any time, but now that bastard in Lin'an wants to draw a salary from the bottom of the kettle, and wants to sit back and watch the marshal be killed by the Mongolian Tartars! Why don't I wait now and turn around and return to the division, rush to Henan Mansion to meet General Huang, and go to Xuzhou to relieve the siege for the marshal? Then let the big marshal take us back to the Qingjun side! ā€

"Take this eunuch down first, don't be embarrassed for him! Ladies and gentlemen! Will be subject to the king's life outside! Hua can't go back now!

But we can't change the plan either, our goal is Taiyuan Mansion, which is the goal set for us by Dashuai! Only by taking Taiyuan Mansion, and then waving the army straight into Hebei Road, can we force Wokotai to withdraw from the siege and return to the division.

In fact, the day before yesterday, I already learned about the incident in Beijing, the marshal sent a book to Fengxiang Mansion with a carrier pigeon, and someone had already sent the news to the army to inform me, the marshal had an order, so that I could not wait for this to mess up, so that I could quickly take Taiyuan Mansion, and then turn to Hebei Road to cut off the retreat of the Mongolian army, Xuzhou City has him and Meng Heng here, and will never fall into the hands of Wokotai! Hua Yue restrained his emotions vigorously, and commanded the generals in the account.

"So what about Vice Marshal Hua's family?" Yue Kun couldn't help but ask Hua Yue.

"Life and death are fateful! Even if I lead the army back to Lin'an now, I'm afraid it won't be too late! We can only do the things we are doing well at hand and live up to the trust placed in us by the handsome! Don't hesitate, restrain your own subordinates, speed up the march, raise money on the spot if the military food is not enough, and the day after tomorrow must be attacked under the city of Taiyuan! Hua Yue closed his eyes, endured the pain in his heart and said to Yue Kun and the others.

"I would like to listen to the deputy marshal! ......" The generals in the tent immediately resounded with a roar.
