On the third day of the fourth month, Liangshan Shijin suddenly led 50,000 troops through the Guangji army to Tokyo, and hundreds of warships also came to Tokyo along the Wuzhang River.

Xingren Mansion sent troops to snipe, but was easily defeated by Liangshan soldiers and horses.

Liangshan did not take advantage of the situation to attack Heunginfu, but went straight to Tokyo.

The ministers of the court originally thought that Liangshan would first attack the Guangji Army and Xingrenfu before they could invade Tokyo, but they did not expect that Liangshan's soldiers and horses would actually come straight to Tokyo.

The emperor was so frightened that he wanted to summon the soldiers and horses of the world, but the ministers of the court and the central government agreed that the soldiers and horses of Liangshan could not conquer Tokyo, and only needed to gather the soldiers and horses near the capital to defend the city, so that the soldiers and horses of Liangshan could not cross the thunder pond.

The new lieutenant He Guan was born in the Western Army, and unlike Gao Yu who went to the Western Army to gild, He Guan was promoted step by step in the Western Army and was well aware of military affairs.

The emperor appointed He Guan in the hope that he would rectify the forbidden army and make the country have available soldiers.

He Guan received the emperor's decree, and first began to rectify the forbidden army in the capital.

Shandong, Hedong, and Huaixi have official documents about the loss of cities from time to time, and the emperor also inquires every day.

At the urging of the emperor, He Guan had to use thunderous means to purge the forbidden army in Tokyo.

Although it was impossible to make the Tokyo Forbidden Army an elite soldier in a short period of time, all battalions of soldiers and horses began to train on time and seriously, and it was no longer the same as in the past, and most of the forbidden army was doing other jobs in the city.

However, all the soldiers and civilians in Tokyo knew that He Guan would not be a lieutenant for long, and there were not many imperial relatives and Chinese martial arts involved in the 100,000 forbidden army, if it were not for the fierce trouble of Liang Shan, Tian Hu, and Wang Qing now, even if there was the emperor's support. I'm afraid He Guan won't be able to be a lieutenant for a few days.

Everyone knows that once the situation stabilizes a little, it will be the time for He Guan to lose his position.

He Guan also knew this, but the emperor jumped to his feet in a hurry. He can only offend the Tokyo magnates head-on, otherwise he will not be able to pass the current hurdle.

He Guan has been in the western military for many years, knows more about siege warfare, and feels that the Liangshan bandits can't even go up to the head of Tokyo, so he strongly advises the emperor to wait until the Liangshan bandits attack the city for a few days, and when the division veterans are tired, he will summon the forbidden troops of Xijing Henan Mansion, Beijing Daimyo Mansion, and Nanjing Yingtianfu to come to King Qin. The inside and outside should be combined with the Liangshan bandits.

The Chinese Wu also felt that the other Sanjing forbidden troops gathered now were easy to be defeated by the Liangshan thieves, and it was impossible to say that the Liangshan thieves were just moving the tiger away from the mountain and wanted to attack Nanjing Yingtianfu. All take Shandong.

Under this self-confidence of the Manchu civil and military forces, the emperor also relaxed and just gathered all the forbidden troops near Tokyo into the city.

Shi Jin led the troops to the outside of the city, and set up camp five miles outside the new Cao Gate.

Next. Liangshan soldiers and horses built siege equipment outside the city. At the same time, 20,000 troops were divided to bypass Tokyo and attack Mutuogang, ten miles northwest of Tokyo, obtaining more than 20,000 war horses and countless grains and grass.

Mu Huogang was the land of horse grazing in the Song Dynasty, and almost all the few war horses in the Song Dynasty were raised here.

It's not that Tokyo officials have forgotten these horses, but the city of Tokyo, which houses more than a million soldiers and civilians, has long been overcrowded. In addition, when Gao Yu was a captain, he wantonly invaded the military camp. There were difficulties in camping after the forbidden army entered the city near Tokyo, and there was no place to place these war horses.

Drive the horses to other state capitals. Afraid of attracting the attention of Liang Shan, he sent troops to pursue, and if the 20,000 war horses were mighty and damaged the people's land, even if these war horses were saved, they would be attacked by Wenchen.

He Guan was so busy that he "forgot" about Mu Camel Gang, hoping that the Liangshan thieves would not attack Mu Camel Gang. Or even if he loses Mu Huogang, as long as he can hold Tokyo, the merit will outweigh the demerits.

He really didn't want to provoke those civil servants.

This is also the helplessness of the military generals of the Song Dynasty, the Song Dynasty looked up to the Wen and suppressed the military, and the verbal and written criticism of the civil servants was much more powerful than the swords and guns of the military generals.

The situation of Mu Camel Gang was not concealed from the Liangshan Intelligence Division, so Shi Jincai sent troops to attack Mu Camel Gang on the second day.

captured more than 20,000 war horses, even if he couldn't capture Tokyo, Shi Jin's encounter was not in vain.

When the emperor learned of the loss of Mu Huogang, he reprimanded He Guan, but the war was imminent, and he still had to rely on He Guan to defend the city, and he had to be exhorted again at the end.

On this day, an official document was also transmitted into the city from the north, and Xingren Mansion was captured by Liangshan soldiers and horses, except for Nanjing Yingtianfu and Huaiyang Army, and Shandong all fell.

It turned out that when Shi Jin led people to Tokyo, Yang Zhi, the general soldier of Shandong, also led troops to attack the Guangji Army and Xingren Mansion.

However, in one day, the Guangji army was defeated, and the soldiers and horses of Xingrenfu resisted stubbornly for two days and were also captured by Yang Zhi.

Shi Jin's soldiers and horses built siege equipment outside the city for two days, and early on the third day, they came towards the Northeast Water Gate.

He Guan saw that the soldiers and horses of Liangshan were going to attack the Northeast Water Gate, and hurriedly shifted the focus of defense from Xincao Gate to the Northeast Water Gate, and at the same time asked the emperor to go to the city to inspect and boost morale.

The emperor was a little worried about the flow of arrows and was reluctant to go to the head of the city, but He Guanzuo said that the city of Tokyo was high and the river was deep, and it was difficult for bows and arrows to shoot at the head of the city.

Wang Hao, Cai You and others knew that the emperor was so happy, and they also asked the emperor to go to the city to inspect it, and when he turned around, the historian could write that the Son of Heaven was wise and powerful, and personally went to the city to repel the thieves who invaded the capital.

Emperor Zhao Ji has always wanted to leave a name in history and cover the ancestors, so he has been letting Tong Guan use force in the west to expand the territory, and now he has caused chaos in the world, but he still thinks that these thieves are just the disease of scabies, as long as these thieves are wiped out, they can still sweep away the Western Xia, recapture the sixteen states of Yanyun, and become the first emperor of the ages.

So, Zhao Ji led a group of civil and military soldiers to come from the palace to the city under the escort of the golden gun class and the silver gun class.

Two days ago, Tokyo closed the city gates to prevent a surprise attack by the soldiers and horses of Liangshan.

Prices in the city suddenly soared, not only the vegetables and meat that needed to be supplied outside the city, but also the price of a large amount of grain and rice hoarded in the city.

The imperial court had to open a warehouse to release grain to stabilize prices, but they were basically taken away by the magnates in the city, and the price of rice still rose one by one.

It turned out that the magnates in the city knew that the Manichaean uprising, the agricultural affairs of the prefectures in the south of the Yangtze River were basically abolished, and a large part of the grain of the Great Song Dynasty depended on the supply of Suzhou and Hangzhou.

None of the powerful people in the city believed that the Liangshan bandits could take Tokyo, so they saw this raid on the city as an opportunity to make a windfall, and joined forces to raise the price of grain in the market, forcing the emperor to open a warehouse to release grain, and they took a large amount of grain from the official warehouse and hoarded it until the autumn before selling.

After Tian Hu and Wang Qing rebelled, grain prices began to rise.

After Fang La rose in the south of the Yangtze River last year, grain prices rose sharply like wild horses.

If it weren't for the fact that Liang Shan had been preparing for the army and had purchased a lot of grain and grass, Shi Jin would have had a headache for the price of grain.

In the case that the price of grain has already doubled, the price of rice is rising again, and the people in the city are naturally boiling with resentment, especially the imperial court has put hundreds of thousands of stones of grain, but few people can buy it, who does not know that it is a traitor.

"Kill the nine thieves and reduce the price of grain."

"Kill the nine thieves and reduce the price of grain."

"Kill the nine thieves and reduce the price of grain."

……

After Liang Shan shouted in the crowd, the people who watched the emperor on both sides of the road shouted along.

It soon spread throughout the city. (To be continued......)
