200 In the face of chaos, Li Gang made up his mind
For this kind of questioning, Li Gang has always been dismissive of verbal rebuttals, he has always liked to speak with facts, so he accompanied a eunuch in charge of city defense to the field, surrounded by city defense professionals, after that, Li Gang confirmed that although the current city wall is much worse than the good intentions of Emperor Taizu's design, but on the whole it is definitely the strongest city wall in the Great Song Dynasty.
He opened the arsenal prepared by Zhao Kuangyin for the Kaifeng city wall more than a hundred years ago, and was pleasantly surprised to see the mountains of sophisticated weapons, the mountains of city defense equipment, and the mountains of arrows, he couldn't help but sigh, the ancestors took everything into account for the descendants, and the descendants lost the sense of crisis of the ancestors, which made the country to the point where it is today, and he seemed to see Zhao Kuangyin's expression of hating iron and steel.
Li Gang came back and reported that there was no problem, and told Zhao Huan everything he saw, saw, heard and thought, Zhao Huan was silent, sat on the chair and thought about it again and again, and decided to believe Li Gang who was on the field trip, and then asked who could open the guard for the general.
Li Gang said that the practice of our dynasty is that the literati command the army, the higher the status, the better, and on weekdays, the imperial court uses high-ranking officials to raise the ministers, and at this time the ministers should stand up, such as Bai Shizhong and Li Bangyan, they are the rulers, and they should go to war.
Bai Shizhong suddenly became Spartan, he instinctively thought that this was Li Gang harming him, he exploded all of a sudden, he didn't know how to fight at all, he didn't even know how to fight, he couldn't even hold a sword, he only read books and hurt others, he was not very good at others harming himself, and he was not very used to it, he immediately wanted to reverse the situation, I have always harmed others, you still dare to harm me? I don't understand fighting, reversing black and white is my unique skill at the bottom of the box! So he asked very indignantly: "Li Gang, do you dare to fight?" ”
This sentence is Li Gang's dream, of course he dares to fight, he is not in vain to collect taxes in the small border county, the chaotic situation requires him to at least know a little self-protection martial arts, at least know some of the art of arranging troops, the years in the small county town in the southwest frontier, is his most precious precipitation period, he is hungry to learn the knowledge that can not be learned in books, compared to six years ago, he has evolved, he has the minimum self-protection ability, after becoming the ruler, he led Kaifeng also has the minimum self-protection ability.
Kaifeng City, which has not stopped decent resistance since the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms and has repeatedly fallen without bloodshed, finally organized a decent resistance for the first time, under the leadership of Li Gang, a weak scholar.
He took the opportunity to ask for the identity of the chief executive, he said, the identity is not enough, the order is not clear, I am now just a squire of the military department, no authority, others do not listen to me, it is okay for me to fight, but I want a higher authority, so that I can command a battle smoothly; So Li Gang was named Shangshu Youcheng, equivalent to the deputy prime minister, and at the critical moment when the Jin army was about to enter the city, he rode a rocket into the slaughter column.
When someone wants to be a prime minister, the time of struggle is calculated according to the years, and when he is the prime minister, the time of struggle is calculated according to the days.
But the time of others as prime minister is also calculated according to the years, and the time he is the prime minister is calculated according to the days, to be precise, if he can't hold the city, he will also become the prime minister of the Song Dynasty with the shortest reign, perhaps, just three or five days, in the historical trend, he used his courage and will to go upstream, and this prime minister was bought by him at the cost of his life.
Li Ganggang stayed to resist the enemy, to defend the capital, to defend the dignity of the Great Song Dynasty and the Han people, and he wanted to use his fragile body and strong spirit to fight against the formidable enemy, but not everyone had such a strong spirit and courage as him, to be precise, 95 percent of the people did not have this kind of courage and spirit.
Zhao Huan's queen and son belong to this ninety-five percent, they ran, secretly ran, at a critical moment, the queen and her son abandoned their husband and father and ran away, this news was sent by the inner servant, panicked, the news has been blocked for a while, this inner servant ran out secretly, calculate the time, the queen and the prince have been running for a while.
Zhao Huan collapsed suddenly, he was a young man, a very young man, fledgling, with a sharp spirit, but pay attention, what kind of situation he is facing, what kind of enemies and helpers he is facing, and what extent is his own ability, so, he collapsed, collapsed without accident, facing Li Gang and others, he showed the same cowardice as his father, and said in a panic: "You don't have to keep it anymore, I have decided to go out of Beijing to Shaanxi, and go there to recruit the western army to recover the capital." and must not stay here any longer. ”
He's just going to run away.
My family is gone, and they're going to abandon me, so what am I going to do here? Waiting to die? This is his heart.
He wants to be with his family.
At this point, what else can Li Gang do, can he hold on to Zhao Guangyi's robe like Kou Zhun and say nothing and let you go? Or continue to study Kou Zhun, be the first person in ancient and modern times, and force Emperor Zhenzong to go to the front line to fight the enemy? Kou Zhun is a young genius, a courtier appreciated by Zhao Guangyi, and a minister of the humerus of Zhenzong, what is he Li Gang, a captain of Team Rocket who is disgusted by the entire imperial court, he has no prestige and achievements at all, he can only kneel on the ground, burst into tears, and continue to analyze the consequences for the emperor.
You are the emperor, you are the psychological pillar of your subjects, you are gone, what do you let your subjects and your army do? They stayed here for you, for the protection of you, and when you leave, who are they fighting for? How do they struggle? Lose your command, lose your spiritual pillar, no matter how strong the army is, you are the last hope of Kaifeng City, you can't go no matter what! What's more, if you leave, the army will go with you, what will I take to defend the city? Why should I defend the city?
You are going to recover, what are you recovering from? With the brutality and greed of the Jin people, Yanjing City is a lesson for the city of Tokyo, millions of people, all the treasures of a hundred years will be destroyed in one fell swoop, there is nothing left, at that time you regain the capital, what is the point?
You are the emperor, you are the supreme of this country, you are the master of this country, you are the master of the strongest power, and at the same time, you are also the bearer of the most difficult tasks, you have these powers, you have to pay for it, your father ran away, he is no longer an emperor, he paid for it, what about you? What do you give? What did you pay for?!
Your Majesty! My Majesty! You stay! You stay! I defend the city for you, I fight for you, I swear to you, I will die in front of you, I will die in front of you, and even if I die, I will definitely let you get out of here alive, you are the emperor, you are the emperor of the Han people, you are our totem, you will not have an accident, I will guarantee my life, you will not have an accident!
Hoarse, crying blood, weeping, Zhao Huan was silent, hesitated, his panicked figure stabilized a little, he looked at Li Gang who begged him, he couldn't say that he was leaving, what Li Gang said was right, he couldn't refute Li Gang no matter what, he was the emperor, everyone else could go, but he couldn't go......
Maybe God watched Li Gang cry too pitifully, and took pity on him a little, Zhao Huan's two uncles who had not yet escaped, Yan Wang Zhao Yu and Yue Wang Zhao Stubborn came, they strongly persuaded Zhao Huan not to go, Zhao Huan quieted down again, he thought about it, and wrote two words: "You can go back." "Put on the royal seal, hand it over to the chamberlain, let them catch up with the queen, and call them back, I won't leave, I'm the emperor, I can't go, you are my family, you have to accompany me, and you are not allowed to leave.
The emperor is not leaving.
Li Gang's plea worked.
However, this is just Li Gang's wishful thinking, and at night, His Majesty Qinzong changed his mind again, the reason is likely that the chamberlain caught up with the queen and the prince, but they insisted on leaving, regardless of Zhao Huan, Zhao Huan, who had not experienced a blow and had fragile willpower, was shaken and collapsed again, he recalled how he became the emperor, and it was his father who used him to block the disaster! Now Li Gang and the others say that they won't let him go, and they are obviously using him to prevent disasters, he is so unlucky, anyone can bully him and calculate him? He's the Emperor!
I'm the Emperor!
My wife is separated, everyone abandons me, and you hold me down and use me as a shield!
There is no heavenly reason!
He couldn't bear it anymore, and issued an order to the ministers overnight, telling them that he would leave in the early hours of tomorrow morning, and the state entrusted him to Li Gang to stay in Tokyo, with Li Yan as the deputy, who loves to guard this capital, anyway, don't bother me again, I am the emperor, not a mascot, not a meat shield! Not your chips! I'm an autonomous emperor, I'm not a puppet, I have power, I have power as a human being, don't any of you try to use me! Don't even try to hold me hostage!
I'm leaving!
When Li Gang got the news, it was also the middle of the night, he couldn't see the emperor, he could only wait until dawn, he was suffering, and finally suffered until dawn, as soon as the palace door opened, he rushed in, seeing that the palace guards, eunuchs, and palace maids were packing all kinds of things and preparing to leave, he suddenly realized that if he couldn't persuade the emperor to stay here and not leave, then once the people in the palace left, the hearts of the entire Kaifeng people would be scattered, and there would be no need to keep and the success rate.
How fast can so many people walk together? The golden soldiers and iron cavalry went south lightly, and they could catch up with them in less than three days, and they were in the field, and what did the unarmed people take to resist? Except to die or die, isn't it?
Li Gang raised his head and watched the people in the palace running out with boxes and burdens, his face was full of panic, his face was full of despair and timidity, Li Gang's body couldn't help but tremble, his hands were tightly clenched into fists, he stood here, he faced all this!
Li Gang made up his mind!
