Wang Qing, the commander of Fengguodu, said to Dewey: "Now that the army is only five miles away from Hengzhou City, what are we doing here!" In this way, the isolation of the barracks and the running out of food will inevitably put our army in a dangerous situation.

The last general asked to lead two thousand infantry to act as the vanguard, seize the bridge, open the way, and then lead the armies to follow, as long as you can enter Hengzhou, there is nothing to worry about. ”

Dewey agreed to his plan and sent Wang Qing to attack with Song Yanyun.

Wang Qing took the lead, unstoppable, the Khitan army could not resist, retreated slightly, the generals saw this, and asked to send a large army to attack later, at this time Dewey was confused again, and he silently did not allow it.

Soon, Song Yanyun was defeated by the Khitan, leaving only Wang Qing alone to lead his soldiers to fight the other side of the river, the two armies suffered casualties to each other, Wang Qing repeatedly asked Dewey for help, but Dewey has been standing still and refusing to help.

In desperation, Wang Qing reluctantly said to his soldiers: "The general has a heavy army, but he sits and watches us being surrounded, it seems that he must have the intention of rebellion, and my generation should only repay the country with death!" ”

When the people heard his words, they were very moved, and no one retreated, until the evening, and the battle continued, and the Khitan threw in a new army to attack, and Wang Qing and the soldiers were all killed.

Since then, the morale of the Later Jin army has been low and there is no fighting spirit.

On the eighth day of the first month, the Khitan army surrounded the Later Jin camp, and the Jin army was completely cut off from the outside world, seeing that the food was about to run out.

Dewey plotted with Li Shouzhen and Song Yanyun to surrender to the Khitan, and Dewey secretly sent his henchmen to Yelu Deguang's tooth tent to ask for merit and reward, Yelu Deguang fooled him and said: "Zhao Yanshou's prestige has always been shallow, and I am afraid that he cannot be the emperor of the Central Plains." If you can really come and surrender, I will make you emperor. ”

Dewey was very happy when he heard this, and he strengthened his determination to surrender. On the tenth day of the first month, Dewey ambushed a large group of soldiers around the tent. Then he summoned all the generals to come and discuss the military situation, and when the generals came, Dewey took out the surrender table and showed them and asked them to sign it. When the generals saw it, they were stunned and at a loss. Only "yes, yes" bow down and obey orders.

On this day, Dewey ordered all the soldiers to line up outside the camp, and the soldiers were in high spirits and were very enthusiastic, thinking that they were about to go on an expedition and could beat the Khitan dogs. Then, Dewey cleared his throat and said, "Now that we have run out of food, we are desperate." I will work with you to find a way to escape. ”

After speaking, he ordered the whole army to take off their armor, put down their weapons, and surrender out of the camp.

Yelu Deguang sent Zhao Yanshou to comfort the soldiers in the Houjin camp in an ochre dragon robe, and said to him: "These will be your things in the future." ”

Zhao Yanshou arrived at the Jin camp. Dewey and the others all came to her horse to welcome her. Zhao Yanshou also took the ochre dragon robe and put it on for Dewey to show the Jin army.

Then, Yelu Deguang appointed Dewey as Taifu and Li Shouzhen as Situ. Dewey took Yelu Deguang to the city of Hengzhou and told Shunguo Jiedu that Wang Zhou had surrendered, and Wang Zhou saw that the general trend had gone. The city also surrendered.

On the twelfth, Yelu Deguang entered Hengzhou, sent troops to attack Daizhou, and assassinated Wang Hui to open the city and surrender. Previously, the Khitan army had repeatedly attacked Yizhou. Assassin Shi Guo Ling stubbornly resisted.

Every time Yelu Deguang passed by the city, he pointed to Yizhou City and sighed: "I can annex the world, but I am blocked by this person!" ”

At this time, Yelu Deguang sent Geng Chongmei, a general, to Yizhou to persuade Guo Lan's subordinates, and the subordinates all surrendered, Guo Lan could not stop it, and was finally killed by Geng Chongmei. Soon, Yiwu Jiedu made Li Yin and An Guo stay in the rear, and they also surrendered to the Khitan.

When Dewey surrendered, Huangfu Yu did not participate in it, and later after being forced to surrender to the Khitan, he was extremely ashamed. At this time, Yelu Deguang planned to send Huangfu Yu to lead the army to attack Daliang, but Huangfu Yu refused, and he said to his subordinates: "I have received the grace of the country, I am also a general, and I can't die if I am defeated, can I still bear to plot against my own king?" ”

A few days later, he said to his attendants: "I have not eaten for two days, and the king is dishonored, and he deserves to die for his courtiers, and I have decided not to go south." "Say stop slashing your neck and commit suicide.

There is an idiom in China called loyalty, but there is also an ancient saying that those who know the times are handsome, some people keep festivals, and some people defect, and the emperor is reluctant to meet with the old master soldiers, and naturally some people regard this as a godsend.

Yelu Deguang sent Zhang Yanze to attack again, and Zhang Yanze readily agreed. Zhang Yanze was previously the envoy of the Jin army's horse army, and he had a terrifying appearance in this life, with red eyes and glowing at night, like a yaksha, famous for his bravery and brutality.

After Zhang Yanze received the order, he traveled day and night, galloped, and crossed Baimajin that night. On the 16th, Shi Chonggui learned the news of Dewey's surrender, and in the evening of the same day, he heard that Zhang Yanze had arrived in Huazhou, so he planned to order Liu Zhiyuan to come to King Qin. Helplessly, Zhang Yanze's soldiers were very fast, on the morning of the 17th, before dawn, Zhang Yanze had broken through the Fengqiu Gate and entered the city.

Li Yantao led the forbidden army of 500 to meet the enemy, but he could not stop it. Shi Chonggui heard that the city had been broken, put a fire in the palace, and drove more than a dozen people in the harem to jump into the fire with a sword, and then he also committed suicide by throwing himself into the fire.

Soon, Zhang Yanze passed a letter from Yelu Deguang to the Queen Mother from outside the Kuanren Gate to show comfort, and Shi Chonggui saw that he could save his life, so he ordered to extinguish the fire and open all the palace doors to welcome Zhang Yanze.

Shi Chonggui sat in the imperial garden and wept with the concubines, and summoned the Hanlin scholar Fan to draft a table, saying: "Sun Nanchen is noble, and the disaster is so confusing that he will die in the sky."

Now with the Queen Mother and his wife Feng, the family is bound to the crime in the suburbs. Send the male Zhenning Festival to make Yanxu, the prestige festival to make Yanbao, and welcome the national treasure one and the golden seal. ”

After that, the Khitan Governor Bo Zhu'er entered to announce Yelu Deguang's order, Shi Chonggui took off his yellow robe, changed into plain clothes, bowed his head again, and the ministers on the left and right hid their faces and wept.

Shi Chonggui summoned Zhang Yanze and wanted to discuss things with him, but Zhang Yanze said: "The minister has no face to see Your Majesty. Shi Chonggui continued to summon, but Zhang Yanze just smiled and ignored him. On the 18th, Zhang Yanze moved Shi Chonggui to Kaifeng Mansion, and the palace cried.

Shi Chonggui sat on his shoulders with the queen mother and queen, and more than a dozen palace people and eunuchs followed on foot, and everyone he saw on the road wept bitterly.

After arriving at Kaifeng Mansion, Zhang Yanze sent Hekong to command Li Yun to lead troops to guard Shi Chonggui's family, so that inside and outside could not figure it out, Shi Chonggui's aunt Princess Wu bribed the soldiers guarding the door. was able to go in and say goodbye to Shi Chonggui, and the two cried with each other, and then Princess Wu went out to commit suicide. Shi Chonggui asked people to take a few pieces of silk cloth from the inner treasury, but the people guarding the treasury did not give it, saying: "This is not the emperor's property." ”

begged Li Song for wine again, but Li Song refused to give it. I wanted to see Li Yantao again, but Li Yantao couldn't shirk it, and overnight, the situation changed greatly, Shi Chonggui was melancholy for a long time, and he wanted to cry without tears.

Soon, Shi Chonggui heard that Yelu Deguang was about to cross the Yellow River and wanted to go with the Queen Mother to greet him, but Zhang Yanze reported it in advance. Jerod light does not allow it.

The relevant officials wanted Shi Chonggui to hold the jade and the lamb in his hand, and the minister carried the coffin to the suburbs to greet him, Zhang Yanze reported again, and Yelu Deguang said: "I sent strange soldiers to take the girder directly, not to accept the surrender." ”

It is also not allowed.

On the first day of the first month of the first month of 947 A.D., the civil and military officials of the Later Jin Dynasty bid farewell to Shi Chonggui far away in the north of the city of Daliang, and changed to white clothes and hats. Kneel on the side of the road to greet the arrival of the light of Jerod.

Jerod was bald and wore a mink hat. Wearing leather clothes and iron armor, he immediately stood on the high post and ordered hundreds of officials to be calmed down and appeased.

Shi Chonggui and the Queen Mother greeted him outside the Fengqiu Gate, and Yelu Deguang did not see it. When Jerod Light entered the gate of the Great Beam. The people ran with astonishment. Jerod ascended up to the tower and instructed them, "I am like you, all human beings, do not be afraid!"

I will recuperate you from your troubles. I didn't want to come south, but the Han soldiers brought me here. ”

The fifth day of the first month. Yelude made a system under the light, and the stone was valued as the Guanglu doctor, the inspector of the school, and the marquis of righteousness, and placed in the Huanglong Mansion on the border of the Bohai Sea. Yelu Deguang sent someone to say to Empress Dowager Li: "I heard that Chonggui didn't listen to his mother's words, so he ended up like today, you can do it at your own convenience, don't go with him." ”

The Queen Mother said: "I am very respectful to serve the nobles. His mistake was to go against the will of his ancestors and cut off the friendship between the two countries.

Now that I am fortunate to have received great grace and saved my life, where will I seek a home if I am a mother who does not follow her son? ”

On the seventh day of the first month, Yelu Deguang moved Shi Chonggui's family to Fengchan Temple, and sent Cui Tingxun, the envoy of Datong Jiedu and a servant, to lead the troops to guard it.

Yelu Deguang sent messengers to greet him many times, and every time he heard that the messenger had arrived, the family trembled and panicked.

At that time, it snowed heavily for more than ten days, and the supply outside the temple was cut off, and the whole family was cold and hungry. ”

The monk politely refused on the grounds that "the Khitan was unpredictable and did not dare to offer food". Shi Chonggui had to beg the guards to get a little food.

After that, Shi Chonggui was escorted to Huanglong Mansion by 300 cavalry, and the officials of the former dynasty came to welcome him, but they were all blocked by the Khitan soldiers, and even food could not be supplied. Towards the clouds, the sound of the wheel is like water.

White grass and yellow sand, the moon shines on the lonely village of three or two. Feihong has passed, and there is no day and night for thousands of knots. Approaching Yanshan, it is difficult to return to the countryside.

Along the way, I slept in the open air, and all I saw was desolation. The group lacked food and clothing, and only relied on the palace maid and the officials to pick wild vegetables and fruits to satisfy their hunger. In this way, I walked more than a thousand miles and crossed the Liaoshui River to Huanglong Mansion.

Soon after arriving at Huanglong Mansion, the Khitan Mother summoned Shi Chonggui and his party to Huaimi Prefecture, which was more than 1,000 miles northwest of Huanglong Mansion, and they had to travel day and night again to embark on a journey. Shi Chonggui was overwhelmed, and Empress Feng secretly ordered the internal officials to find poison and wanted to commit suicide with Shi Chonggui, but when death came, the two had no courage and had to continue to live in exile.

After walking more than 200 miles, fortunately there was a coup d'état within the Khitan, and the new king Yongkang allowed them to temporarily live in Liaoyang, and since then the supply has been slightly guaranteed.

In the first year of Qianxin of the Later Han Dynasty (948), King Yongkang went to Liaoyang, and Shi Chonggui wore a white dress and a hat to worship him. Shi Chonggui had a young daughter, and the wife and brother of King Yongkang begged for it, but refused because of her young age. Within a few days, King Yongkang sent someone to take it away and give it to his wife and brother.

In the second year of Qianyou (949), Shi Chonggui's family was allowed to live in Jianzhou (now southwest of Chaoyang, Liaoning). Halfway through the trip, Shi Chonggui's biological mother, Concubine An, fell ill and died. After arriving in Jianzhou, more than 50 hectares of land were obtained, and Shi Chonggui ordered his group to build houses and divide the fields for cultivation.

In this year, Prince Shulu of Khitan forcibly married Shi Chonggui's favored Ji Zhao and Nie and left. Shi Chonggui was sad and indignant, but he was also helpless.

In August of the third year of Qianyou in the Northern Han Dynasty, some Han people came from the north and south, saying that Shi Chonggui, Empress Feng and several of his sons were still in Jianzhou, and most of the rest of the retinue officials who followed Shi Chonggui to the Khitan land had fled. According to the "Jin Dynasty Trap Records", Shi Chonggui lived in Jianzhou for 18 years before he died, which was already the second year of Song Taizu Qiande.

Finally, with some finishing touches, let's take a look at the final ending of some of the old acquaintances mentioned above. After Shi Chonggui succeeded to the throne, Sang Weihan, who advocated reconciliation with the Khitan, was gradually pushed out of the center of power.

In the ninth year of Tianfu, the Khitan invaded the south on a large scale, plundered Beizhou and other places and returned to the north, causing great losses to the Later Jin Dynasty.

Sang Weihan took the opportunity to let people say in front of Shi Chonggui: "To make Khitan and settle the world, you must use Weihan." Shi Chonggui then transferred Jing Yanguang out of the imperial court to guard Luoyang.

Sang Weihan was able to return to the position of prime minister, was promoted to Zhongshu Ling, and at the same time restored the establishment of the Privy Council, with him as the privy envoy, Sang Weihan once again became a hot figure in the later Jin Dynasty. After Sang Weihan took power for the second time,

Once again, he showed his sophisticated political talents, and within a few months, Baidu immersion. However, he also relied on the power in his hands to accept bribes extensively, "still in the middle of the year, accumulating huge amounts of goods", which aroused criticism from the government and the opposition.

Li Yantao, Feng Yu and others attacked Sang Weihan in front of Shi Chonggui, and Shi Chonggui wanted to depose him immediately, but after the persuasion of Liu Yun, Li Song and others, they adopted the method of gradual decentralization, intending to have Feng Yu first appointed as the privy envoy and then as the prime minister, so as to reduce Sang Weihan's real power.

Sang Weihan also unceremoniously gave a counterattack, and when Shi Chonggui was sick, he suggested to the Queen Mother that "Shi Chongrui is the master of the emperor's younger brother".

Shi Chonggui recovered from his illness and was furious when he learned of this, and immediately dismissed him from his post and released him as the governor of Kaifeng.

Since then, he has gradually faded out of the core of power on the grounds of "foot disease". When Zhang Yanze attacked Daliang, someone persuaded Sang Weihan to escape, he said: "I am a minister, where can I go if I escape!" ”

Later, Zhang Yanze summoned Sang Weihan into the palace with the order of Shi Chonggui, when Sang Weihan came to Tianjie, he met Li Song, stopped the horse to talk to him, and before he finished speaking, there were military officials in front of the horse to invite Sang Weihan to go to the Guard Division, he knew that he would inevitably die, and turned back to Li Song and said: "You are presiding over the state as a servant, and now the country is ruined, but let me die, what is the reason?" ”

After Li Song heard this, his face was ashamed. When he arrived at the Guards Division, Zhang Yanze behaved very arrogantly, and Sang Weihan accused him and said: "I promoted you from among the sinners last year, and let you govern a large feudal town, and granted you military power, how can you be so gracious!" Zhang Yanze was speechless.

Soon after, Zhang Yanze killed Sang Weihan and put a rope around his neck, and said that he had hanged himself.

Yerod Guang lamented: "I have no intention of killing Sang Weihan, why is he like this!" Then he ordered his family to be generously compensated.

After Yelu Deguang arrived in Anyang, he sent people everywhere to arrest Jing Yanguang, a class-A war criminal, Jing Yanguang had nowhere to escape, so he had to send himself to the door and go to Fengqiu to surrender to Yelu Deguang. Jerod rebuked him, "It is all your good deeds that have caused the discord between the two lords!"

And now where are the '100,000 horizontal sharpening swords' that you are talking about? Then summoned Qiao Rong to confront him face to face, and there were a total of ten counts.

At the beginning, when Qiao Rong wanted to return to Khitan, Jing Yanguang humiliated Yelu Deguang, Qiao Rong was worried that there was no evidence, so he coaxed Jing Yanguang and said: "I'm worried that I will forget what you want to convey for a while, please write it down with pen and ink." Jing Yanguang was in power for a while, and he didn't think much about it, so he wrote it down very simply.

At this time, Jing Yanguang tried his best to argue at the beginning, and Qiao Rong took out evidence to confront him, in black and white, Jing Yanguang had nothing to say, so he had to admit his guilt. (To be continued.) )
