The Fall of Youzhou
Do you need to talk about the rest of the story? The Song army threw down enough corpses before crossing the white ditch and returning to the Song realm...
This is the end of the two northern expeditions of the Huizong Dynasty! The defeat of the Song army was to the point of misery, don't talk about morale, glory and the like, every soldier of the Western Army is depressed to death! Looking at the overall situation, they were not defeated by Northern Liao at all, they were intimidated by Northern Liao!
Lao Tzu is not scared, he is scared to death... Such humiliation is completely the result of the complete decay of the upper class! What about the Western Army's bravery? What if the whole army is ten thousand enemies? As long as there are big leaders like Tong Guan, Liu Yanqing, and Liu Guangshi, they will all be defeated, all will die, and they will all be humiliated!
After this battle, the supplies are gone, the military strength is lost, and the morale is lost... And that's just its own loss. Looking outside, the Khitans and Jurchens all opened their eyes and saw the fact: the dignified Song Dynasty, such a huge thing, is actually just a silver-like spear head, a paper tiger... Ha Luha, I knew this was the case, I should have adjusted the policy in the first place, and the fat meat should have the treatment of the fat meat? Especially the Jin Kingdom, they no longer regard the Song Dynasty as a strategic partner!
This is still only part of the loss. The greater consequences of the two Northern Expeditions will not really be revealed until more than a month later! At that time, the Song Dynasty wanted to cry without tears! The Jin Army has finally come to the rescue! This is something that everyone knows is going to happen. But when it does happen, it still makes people shiver. To be precise: it was the Jin people who trembled with joy, the Liao people who trembled with fear, and the Song people who trembled!
Hate! At the beginning, in order to take advantage of the advantage, he launched an attack first, but he thought that he would collapse at the touch of a button and grab Yan Yun, and since then he has a northern defense line. Who knows that the effort is in vain, and the soldiers are lost! The most terrible thing is that the two Northern Expeditions also hurt the vitality of Northern Liao! At this time, the Jin army came over, and it was a standard descent down the mountain to pick peaches. After thinking about it, what a good tailor the Song Dynasty was, he made a wedding dress for the Jin Kingdom... At this moment, the people of the Song Dynasty could only stand on the border line and watch...
In October, Zhao Liangsi and his entourage came to Fengshengzhou (that is, Xinzhou, one of the 16 states. It originally belonged to the Great Liaoxi Jingdao, and the gold was lowered last month) His task is too heavy, and he has to guarantee the performance of the contract under the premise that the Song army is defeated? It's so hard! What I said before: It was the two armies that flanked and worked together to make the Jin army give up Nanjing Road, and now the Jin army has enough reasons not to admit it!
Sure enough, the people of Jin Guo no longer had a good face, and as soon as they met, they scolded Zhao Liangsi for being bloody, and Zhao Liangsi could only listen! People say it in an orderly manner: 1 The two countries made an agreement to attack, and the envoy of the Jin State arrived in Kaifeng and was hung for half a year. Wasted the precious time of the Jin army. 2 The Song Dynasty suddenly sent troops, wanting to take advantage of loopholes and take advantage. 3. Now that I have lost the battle, I think of my allies. Are you playing Jin Guo for a fool?
A thousand words come together in one sentence - take the money!
Daliao Nanjing Road 7 states can give! But 500,000 cents per year cannot be less! In addition: in these 7 states and 24 counties, only the property of the Han people is given! The population and property of other Xi, Khitan, Bohai and other ethnic groups are all owned by the Jin State! It's too harsh, too vague! As long as you are a little black-hearted in the implementation, you can move all the people and property in the state and county! But under the low eaves, Zhao Liangsi had nothing to say, he could only agree...
Then, Ma Kuo was left behind, and Zhao Liangsi took the Jin envoy Li Jing and other three people to Kaifeng on November 25 to submit the credentials, which clearly stated that "the Song Dynasty only had the ownership of the Han people in the seven states of the Great Liao Nanjing Road." All other nationalities belong to Daikin. In addition: Seokyeong-do is already Daikin. Do not be delusional! Although the three prefectures of Ying, Ping, and Luan are still the territory of the Liao State, they will be recovered by the Song Dynasty in the future, and they will have to give us a lot of gold."
On December 2, the Song army finally won a game. Guo Yaoshi defeated Xiao Gan in Yongqing County. Chased straight to the city of Youzhou. This also gave Zhao Liangsi a little confidence again.
On the 3rd, Zhao Liangsi and Li Jing and other three people returned to the Jin Kingdom. This time, Zhao Ji had to lower his posture, "Money is no problem!" In addition to the 500,000-year-old coin, you can add 50,000 horses of silk and 50,000 taels of silver. To the end of the joy of Song Jin. But I want to return all Xijing Road and Pingzhou Road! The extra 100,000 taels a year is considered the price of Pingzhou Road."
At the moment when the Northern Liao Empire was already suffering from internal and external troubles and was almost collapsing, Concubine Xiao De also had to beg Wanyan Aguda: Please set up Ye Luding, the king of Qin, and be a subordinate of the Dajin Domain... 5 times in a row. All rejected!
Subsequently, Jin Taizu finally conquered Youzhou in person!
The Empress Dowager Xiao of Northern Liao pinned her hopes on the defense line of the Great Wall, and guarded Juyong Pass with the most heavy troops. The one who came to attack Juyong Pass was Nichuhe, who was as famous as the Jurchen God of War Wanyan Lou Room! At that time, the two of them rushed to the million-strong Liao army. The ghost who is nine in and nine out of the direct kill cry wolf howls... So in the face of the danger of Juyong, does Nichukh still have to repeat that heroic scene?
I have to admit: there is such a thing as qi in this world! And there is no doubt about it: the 215-year-old Daliao country has exhausted its strength! Nichuhe came to Juyong Pass, and the Great Wall actually collapsed! The Northern Liao army was defeated without a fight. The situation has reached this point, Concubine Xiao Defei's firmness is gone, Xiao Gan's courage is gone, and Yelu Dashi, who has an infinite future, has also disappeared, and the entire Northern Liao Empire has an unprecedented unified: escape!
After Yan Aguda was still a long way away from Youzhou City, the Liao people began a great escape. They left Youzhou and went west from Gubeikou to find the Tianzuo Emperor Yelu Yanxi, who had escaped farther and more completely... So far, all the 5 capitals of Daliao have fallen into the hands of the Jin people!
On December 6th, Wanyan Aguda came to Youzhou City. Ordered Ni Chuhe and Wanyan Lou to line up under the city and enter through the south gate by themselves! In the Battle of Youyan, the Jin army almost did not use swords, and it was directly on horseback into the city. After entering the city, all the Jin army was dizzy... So blissful! Is this the legendary city of perfection? What they saw was prosperity that they had never seen before, even if they had occupied the other four capitals before, they had never seen such a worldly realm. Youzhou City is special, she has Liao characteristics, more Song Dynasty colors. She was the closest area to the civilization of the Song Dynasty in the Great Liao at that time. Both material and style are almost synchronized with the Song Dynasty...
Don't go! I'm not going anywhere! Led by Jin Taizu himself, the Jurchens were all intoxicated by the wealth and prosperity of Youzhou City. Go shopping every day, kill someone, grab some flower girls, do house raiding games, and live a very fulfilling life... Of course, in a good mood, they also did two serious things:
1 sent people to the west to continue to pursue the Great Liao Emperor Yelu Yanxi. This thing must be done, but there is no need to rush, the Khitan people have completely lost their tricks, and they are actually the people who have lost the country, so they are almost extinct!
2 is more troublesome, but full of fun and fantasy. The Jurchens cast their eyes to the south... It is a kind of torture to fantasize about wealth in poverty, and it is a kind of enjoyment to yearn for greater wealth in wealth. And when yearning can be infinitely upgraded like fantasy. How would the person concerned feel if it could become a reality at any level? Ask the Jurchens!
Wanyan Agu sent the Song envoy Ma Kuo, who was detained at that time, to report the victory to the Song Dynasty. He met with Zhao Liangsi again.
Wan Yan: "The original agreement was a pincer attack. Not only did the Song State send troops without greeting, but they were also defeated. Now the land of Yanyun is all laid down by our Jin Kingdom. What more can you say?"
Zhao: "It was true that we agreed to attack at the beginning. However, more than one month ago in Fengshengzhou, His Majesty the Emperor personally promised that no matter whether Song Fa sent troops or not, he would return Nanjing Dao. In addition, at the beginning of this month, Pharmacist Guo also defeated Xiao Gan and chased him to the city of Youzhou, which can also be regarded as a flanking attack."
Wanyan: "Okay! Let's not talk about the attack. Nanjing Road also gives! However, I never said anything about Pingzhou Road. If Song Guoru begged again, he wouldn't even give it to Nanjing Dao."
Zhao "Everything depends on His Majesty"
"In addition. I also remembered one thing: Youzhou City was defeated by us, so the tax should be Dajin. Now I even give you land and taxes, which is a big loss. Therefore, in addition to the New Year's coin, Song Guo also had to pay a one-time ransom fee of 6 million. This is only given once, unlike the annual coins, which have to be given every year, and I don't want to be stingy when I come to the Song Kingdom."
Zhao was shocked: "Your Majesty said this?" Throughout the ages, taxes have been levied everywhere. If you give land, how can you not pay taxes? It doesn't make sense."
Wanyan: "The matter has been decided. If you don't give the 6 million tax, you don't want this Nanjing Road! Nowadays, in Nanjing Province, the Song State still occupies the two states of Zhuo and Yi. If you don't give the 6 million. I'm going to take these 2 states."
Four days later, on the 19th, Wanyan Aguta sent Li Jing to negotiate with Zhao Liangsi to the Song Dynasty. Zhao: "There are still a lot of things that have not been negotiated. How do I go" The answer was 4 words, "The emperor is angry", so Zhao Liangsi could only return.
In this year, Gen Yue was completed. Emperor Huizong of the Song Dynasty made the "Gen Yue Ji" to Ji Qisheng. But this mountain of fate of the Northern Song Dynasty. It has witnessed the most prosperous peak of the Northern Song Dynasty, and will also witness the imminent demise of the Northern Song Dynasty...
Number of accounts in the current year: There are 20882358 main customers and 46734784 customers. Slightly more than in the heyday of the Western Han Dynasty. Although the territory of the Sui and Tang dynasties was wide, it was not as good as the household registration.
On January 3, the 5th year of Xuanhe (1123), King Xi of the Great Liao State returned to Bao and established himself as the emperor of Xi State. Set up Xi, Han, Bohai 3 privy councils, east and west jiedu envoys, two kings branch office. Emperor Tianzuo is now fleeing in the home of the four tribes. There are no soldiers at hand, but the posture of a great power still has to be made! Ordered to unify Brother Ma to quell the Xi rebellion!
Before the pro-conquest, Ah Guda ordered Yan Ang to stay in Linhuang Mansion (formerly the capital of Shangjing Province in Daliao) to supervise the surrender of all clans. As a result, Wanyan Ang made a mess, and the people returned to Liao one after another, and Emperor Tianzuo was finally able to gather and disperse. This caused Jin Taizu to be furious, and ordered Wanyan Wu Qimai, who stayed in the prison country, to arrest Wanyan Ang first, and convict him when he returned!
On the 4th, the Jin envoy Li Jing entered the court, and the Song Dynasty at this time could only accept the conditions of the Jin people in order to get back Youyan. The next day, Zhao Liangsi and Ma Kuo brought their credentials and sent an envoy to Jin with Li Jing to make an alliance for the second time.
After that, the Song Dynasty had to choose civil and military generals before going to defend the border. Shangshu Zuo Cheng Wang Anzhong invited himself to go. So on the 7th, Wang Anzhong was appointed as the Xuanfu envoy of Hebei, Hedong, and Yanshan Prefecture 3 and the prefect of Yanshan. And the military general Guo Yaoshi is the commander-in-chief of the city defense, and he went to Youzhou City together. After that, Zhao Ji personally summoned Guo Yaoshi to the court, and he was very courteous. Give Jiadi and concubines. Then the noble ministers took turns to set up a banquet, and then the emperor personally set up a banquet in the Yanchun Hall in the palace, and Guo Yaoshi knelt down and wept and said, "The minister is in the Khitan, and the emperor Zhao is in the sky." It doesn't mean that you have to look forward to Longyan today" For the important task of guarding Yan, Pharmacist Guo was very satisfied with the 3 words "willing to die", and then proposed to let Pharmacist Guo arrest Yelu Yanxi. Pharmacist Guo cried again, "Tianzuo, so the lord also." The country broke and fled, and the ministers surrendered to His Majesty. The minister is willing to do everything for His Majesty, but he can't oppose the master" Zhao Ji was very happy, thinking that he had received a super "loyal minister" and immediately took off the royal robe as reward. But at this time, Zhao Ji can know what Pharmacist Guo will do after more than 2 years, and will he still appreciate him like this and send him to Shouyan? Hehe! It was a huge disaster...
On the 18th, Wanyan Agu sent an envoy to surrender King Xi to return to Libao, but was refused.
This month, after Guo Yaoshi, the character who will play a pivotal first supporting role in the historical transformation of the three kingdoms of Song, Liao, and Jin will appear: Zhang Jue! This person has a great background, he is a Jinshi of the Great Liao State, and he was formerly the deputy envoy of the Jiedu of Pingzhou in the 18th state of Yanyun. As a second-in-command, he was insignificant. But his boss, Pingzhou Jiedu, caused Xiao Dili to have a pig's head attack, and his attitude towards the people was rude, and as a result, the strength of the masses was very shocking, and they rushed up and cut Xiao Dili! Zhang Jue took over, and rejected Shi Liai, the envoy of the Pingzhou Festival sent by the Empress Dowager Xiao of Northern Liao, and became a big leader. His Pingzhou Road was very sensibly kept on the sidelines in the two Song-Liao Wars and the Liao-Jin War, waiting for the results on the one hand, and expanding its strength on the other hand, reaching the strength of 50,000 troops and 1,000 war horses! His Pingzhou is the existence of the independent Song 7 Jin 9 and the other 2 states in the 18 states of Yanyun: the land of the 3 states of Ying, Ping, and Luan, sandwiched between the two countries, everyone can see that his future is really bleak, but Zhang Jue himself actually lives a very nourishing life, whether it is Song or Jin, they don't care about him...
For what? It's very simple: his Pingzhou geographical location is too superior, and his strength is too much to be underestimated! But now it's finally time for him to take the stage!
Wanyan Zonghan finally proposed to attack Pingzhou Road! At this time, Kang Gongbi, the former governor of the Northern Liao Staff, said, "In this way, it is to force Zhang Jue and Jin Bing to come." Pingzhou is not so easy to fight. I invited myself to go and recruit Zhang Jue for Dajin" After coming to Pingzhou, Zhang Jue said to Kang Gongbi, "Now that all the land of Daliao has fallen, I still exist in Pingzhou." How dare you defy the great powers? Therefore, the recruitment is to prevent Xiao Gan. As for Daikin, I am willing to surrender" and bribed Kang Gongbi with a lot of money.
After Kang went back, he really said to Wanyan Zonghan, "Zhang Jue is willing to surrender", Wanyan Zonghan was very happy, and ordered Pingzhou to be promoted to Nanjing, and Zhang Jue was added to the title of prime minister.
At the end of the month, Zhao Liangsi and his entourage finally walked out of the abandoned temple (living in the ruined temple is the etiquette of the Jin State to the Song envoys now), and saw Jin Taizu Wanyan Aguta: "This dynasty has added a lot of money." For what His Majesty has always said to Pingzhou Xiaoxiao all the way not to "Wanyan Aguda" I have already made it clear: Pingzhou Road is the border pass of Dajin and cannot be given" (to be continued......
