The walled wall built of stones can block the crossbow arrows that come from shooting, but it can't stop the whistling cannonballs, the walled wall is knocked down one after another, and the Jin army behind is smashed in all directions, but there is a place to hide on the empty mountaintop. At the same time, the 3rd and 4th Wolf Brigades launched a feint attack on the front, while the 1st Brigade of the Wolf General, which had long been on standby in the ravine, quickly made a detour through the gully to the flank of the Black Stone Ridge Fort, setting up machine guns to strafe the Jin army at the head of the city.

The artillery brigade then also set up an artillery position under the cover of the 1st brigade, several mortars began to fire shells into the fort, and the 4th brigade arranged an outer defensive line to prevent reinforcements from the Jin army under the mountain. The Jin army in the fort was completely suppressed by the artillery at this moment, and there was no power to fight back, so the second brigade that feinted immediately turned to attack, and used the ladder that was rushed overnight to attack, and quickly attacked the wall.

"Lord Wang, you've got it!" Seeing the wolf general flag raised on the wall, Zhao Yan said with unconcealed excitement on his face, since he stepped on the Flying Fox Mountain, he has been worried that this pass will not be able to pass, I don't know how many major battles have broken out under the small Black Stone Ridge, countless heroes have bent their waists here, and today they were actually attacked by them very easily.

"Hehe, with four infantry brigades and an artillery brigade, we can all capture Bianjing, let's win without force!" Zhao Ta said with a smile, this Black Stone Ridge and the battle that may be encountered after that may be just a small stumbling block, and there is still a long road ahead.

"Lord Wang, don't we use a knife to kill chickens, if you can't beat Heishiling, you won't pick my skin!" Zhao Yan teased, he couldn't sit still yesterday, so he had to go up the mountain to reconnoiter himself. I'm going to pretend to be relaxed today.

"Alright, let's get ready to go. If you delay any longer, you will really starve to death on the road! Zhao Ta got up and said. The wall of the north wall was breached, the south gate was also blown open by artillery, and the first brigade began to enter the village to carry out a clean-up, and the remnants of the Jin army, who had been blown up by artillery fire, obediently became prisoners!

Black Stone Ridge is the highest point of the Flying Fox, and it is also the most important dangerous pass, after here there is no danger to defend, all the way to the ground, as soon as the Xijing Army opens the way, the Tiger General's dragoon brigade immediately takes the Flying Fox County first. Took control of the county seat. After conquering the fortress, Zhao Ta walked into the fortress, although this fortress occupies a favorable location, it is similar to many fortresses in the northwest, it is located in a remote area, and the supply of materials is difficult.

Feihu County is a transportation hub. Five roads go out together: Flying Fox to Ulzhou is the north road, through Flying Fox Pass; Flying fox to Lingqiu is the west road, through the Tianmen Pass; Flying Fox to Yizhou is the host, through Zizhuang Pass; Flying fox to Baozhou is the southeast road. Through Wuruan Pass and Wuhui Ridge; Flying Fox to Zhongshan is the southwest road, passing through the Fallen Horse Ridge. The five roads are all side plugs. Baozhou, Zhongshan, and Zhending are all the big rears that support these side plugs.

But there is still a pass on the road to Zhongshan stuck in this traffic artery. That's the inverted horse pass. The city was located in the Han Dynasty called Changshan Pass, and the Northern Wei Dynasty was called Tieguan. Also known as Hongshan Pass, the city wall is rammed with loess outside masonry and stone. There are three gates to the east, west and north.

The architectural design of Guancheng is unique, it is according to the cliff, near the deep stream, half in the valley, half in the mountain, the whole Guancheng is built according to the topography, and the Tang River flows around the Guancheng from the west, north and east. Mountains, waters, and gates complement each other here, and they are dangerous and obstacle to each other. The depth of the ancients' strategy, the strict fortification, and the strangeness of the architecture are breathtaking, and it is not a little stronger than the Black Stone Ridge Fort.

Although the road ahead is a little wider than the north of the mountain, it is easier to walk, but the road is covered with snow, and in some sections, the snow is quite thick. The sharp winding road and the snow and ice were already difficult to walk, and after the large group of people walked through, the snow turned to ice in some places, which was quite slippery, and the danger increased a lot. But there is no turning back when you open the bow, even if there is a mountain of swords and a sea of fire in front of you, you have to break through!

"Wangfu, is there any news from Bianjing?" The road is slippery and difficult to walk, and at this time, both infantry and cavalry have become two-legged, and the prince is certainly not exempt from vulgarity, and walks between the brigade of men and horses.

"Lord Wang, no, it's been a while, isn't it already in Bianjing City..."Wang Fu replied as he looked at the prince's face.

"What the hell is Lao Li messing with?" Zhao Tan frowned and said, since he got the news that the outer city of Bianjing was captured, the information over there has become abnormal, and the news has actually been cut off after they sent troops to Flying Fox.

"Lord Wang, now that we are marching every day, even if Bianjing City has not all fallen, it must be surrounded by the Jurchens, and it is difficult to transmit information, and it may be that they missed." Wangfu persuaded.

"Well, there's a good chance that Operation Ark has failed!" Zhao Ta was shocked in his heart, "Pass my order, speed up the march, and order the front army to capture the Fallen Horse Pass within three days!" ”

"Lord Wang, there is a lot of snow on the road, and the snow in the shade of the mountain is knee-deep, and the roads are narrow in some places, making it difficult for the army to pass, and some soldiers have accidentally fallen into the deep valley on the side of the road, no matter how fast it is, I am afraid that it will increase casualties!" Wang Jin reminded.

"Then mobilize sappers to clear the snow on the road, and use gunpowder to blow up stones in the narrow part of the road to open the road, now that the weather is getting warmer, the Yellow River will thaw, the Jurchens will withdraw their troops, and something big will happen in Beijing!" Zhao Ta ordered again, anyway, he was trying to speed up the march by all means.

"Lord Wang, if you open the mountain and blow up the rocks, it will definitely alarm the Jurchen spies, which will not be good for our future operations!" Wang Jin said.

"There is no secret to speak of after we conquer the Black Stone Ridge, and the Jurchens must have spread the news, but their army is assembled in Bianjing and Yanjing, and it will take time to transfer troops, now it depends on whose speed is faster!" Zhao Ta said that there is a delivery shop every ten miles on the Flying Fox, and the speed of information transmission is not satisfied, if nothing else, it will arrive in Zhongshan Town in three days.

Zhao Lian personally led the two dragoon brigades of the front army to speed forward, Wang Jin commanded the concentrated sappers to open up the march route for the army day and night, and all departments also sent people to join the ranks of snow removal, at least this can provide convenience for the later transportation of baggage!

………

After the official family left Beijing that day, the people under Bianjing City waited for the official family to return, from afternoon to sunset, from dusk to night. Finally, someone brought back the emperor's decree from Qingcheng: the leaders of the Jin Kingdom have not yet gathered, and they cannot discuss matters today, and they can only return to the city in the future. But the wait became a long wait...

"Dusi, the emperor was detained by the Jurchens. What to do? Xue Hai walked in and said.

"What's the news over there?" Li Jun was not surprised, and asked in a deep voice.

"After it arrived in Qingcheng. The second marshal of the Jin Kingdom refused, and only sent Xiao Qing to convey their meaning, if the Great Song Dynasty was unwilling to pay the gold and silver in full, he could use other items and people to arrive. Xue Hai pursed his lips and said, if it weren't for the prince, I'm afraid he would have to be called a cat and a dog.

"Countering people against each other, hateful!" Li Jun slapped the table heavily and said.

"The damn thing is still to come, He Li and a few ministers who went with him bargained with Xiao Qing for a long time, and asked the faint monarch again. The most reluctant agreed: as long as Dajin retreated, the Song Dynasty was willing to take the prince and the prime minister as hostages to escort the Jin army across the Yellow River; and 2,000 crowns, chariots, and treasures, and 500 folk girls and female musicians each paid tribute; The annual tribute to the Jin Kingdom increased by two million taels of silver and two million horses of silk; In addition, the two royal daughters were presented to the second marshal of the Jin Kingdom. Xue Hai saw that Li Jun's mouth was not clean, so he was also presumptuous.

"Since you have agreed to the conditions of the Jurchens, why do you want to detain them?" Li Jun asked again.

"The treatment given by the Jurchens to the faint king can be seen what they mean, the faint king has proposed several times that everything has been agreed, and there are still many things in the city, and I hope to return to the city as soon as possible. But it was refused, I'm afraid it's going to be taken away! Xue Hai said with a sneer.

This time, Xue Hai personally went out of the city to check, but he couldn't get close at all, and he still got the news through the inside. Although the emperor still lived in Qingcheng Zhai Palace, the Jin army pulled up layers of iron nets on the periphery and surrounded the residence of the Great Song Dynasty monarchs. Bonfires were lit on all sides, and sentry posts were all over the place. There was also a group of golden soldiers patrolling throughout the night, nominally to protect the safety of the emperor of the Southern Dynasty. In fact, Zhao Huan was imprisoned.

"Hmph, this matter is not easy to handle!" Li Jun snorted coldly, but an imperceptible chuckle flashed on his face, and things were developing step by step towards his expectations.

"Dusi, there is one more thing, the second prince of the Jurchens wants Emperor Namod as a concubine, and they are discussing it at the moment!" Xue Hai said.

"Oh, isn't he already married to Cai Jing's son?" Li Jun frowned and said, Princess Yanqing was first crowned and renamed Kangfu. Looking for the change of the name of the emperor, and then sealing Maode, marrying Xuanhe Hall to be made Cai Ying, Maode Emperor Ji is the most beautiful among the many princesses, I think it was known by the Jurchens, and asked for it by name.

"Dusi, the prince has already sent troops, let us quickly inform the situation in Bianjing!" Just as Li Jun was thinking, Junzi suddenly broke in and said.

"The prince has moved, where is he now?" Li Jun stood up and asked in surprise, he was a little worried that the prince would know what he had done.

"The Xijing soldiers set off in two ways, the prince took the flying fox, and now he has conquered the dangerous Black Stone Ridge Fort, and is approaching the Reverse Horse Pass; Dushuai Zhao Yong went out of Shuozhou to Hedong all the way to Henan, they played the banner of the King of Qin in the Great Song Dynasty, Zhao Ren in the river first raised troops in response, Hedong pacified Zhang Xiaochun was also willing to send troops to help by the order of the prince, he killed the Jin envoy and the edict all the way to cut the land, all the way to Jinzhou! Junko replied.

"Well, it's time for us to act, just settle the matter together, you follow me to the inner hall to discuss!" Li Jun was a little excited, but he quickly calmed down, now is a critical moment, he has to 'push' the prince.

………

He Su and Li Ruoshui, who were deeply trapped in the golden camp, were extremely remorseful at the moment, and they knew that if the official family could not go back safely, the two of them would be the sinners of the Great Song Dynasty through the ages. Just when they were anxious, the Jin envoy Xiao Qing came to visit again and conveyed Wanyan Stickyhan's request to send Emperor Maode Zhao Fujin to Wanyan to leave the village.

"Emperor Maude is already married, how can she be married?" He Li and Li Ruoshui were shocked when they heard this, and He Li hurriedly said.

"If you get married, you can also remarry, and remarry my second prince of Dajin, can you still insult Emperor Maode?" Xiao Qing said with a smile.

"The Chinese are honest and shameful, and virgins do not have two husbands, and there are no taboos at all compared to the noble dynasty. Li Ruoshui explained.

"Fujin is the title of the prince and wife of my Dajin Kingdom, so Emperor Maode Zhao Fujin should be dedicated to the second prince. Let the emperor of the Southern Dynasty send someone to send Zhao Fujin to the second prince's village as soon as possible, if this matter is not allowed, then the matter of reducing gold and silver does not need to be discussed, and it is difficult to negotiate peace. Xiao Qing still said with a smile, but his smile was like a thunderbolt in the ears of He and Li.

"Since the Gui Dynasty is unwilling to discuss it again, I will immediately drive back to the city with the holy car, and continue to root the gold and silver..."Li Ruoshui hurriedly said, it's good to take this opportunity to go back!

"The second marshal means that since you are here, you must stay for a few more days." Xiao Qing arched his hand. It was not early, and Xiao Qing retired. Please think twice about the matter of harmony. Then he slammed the door and left.

Outside the window, the cold wind was fierce, and the crescent moon gradually sinking in the west sprinkled the desolate moonlight on the white snowy fields in the distance. Outside the house, there were piles of blazing bonfires. The sound of the hammer constantly broke the silence of the winter night, and every sound seemed to knock on the hearts of Zhao Huan's ministers and ministers, their hearts were bleeding painfully, and He and Li bitterly persuaded the emperor to agree to the matter of peace.

This night, where could Zhao Huan still sleep, he was frightened all night, and he was thinking hard about how to get out. He Li and Li Ruoshui never closed their eyes overnight, and the second marshal of the Jin Kingdom wanted to force the princess of the Song Dynasty to remarry, which was a great shame that could not be accepted no matter what. The two of them were remorseful, and the Jin people's attitude this time made them feel that they might have used the hands of the two of them to trap the emperor in a dangerous net. But at this point, there is no way to do it, so I can only keep the official family first.

The rule of officials is always related to the country's major affairs, and no matter how many officials who work from 9 to 5 and follow the rules, what is the use of the family and the country? The corpse is a vegetarian meal, and he is in the middle of the court, grabbing power and profit, and offering flattery and favor. There are really big things, and they all shirk the blame, blame each other, and seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. It seems to be the tool of the dry city, but in fact it is just the silverfish of the country!

In the early morning of the next day, the envoy of the Jin State asked Wu Yi and Mo Yan to bring a message to Zhao Huan again: Zhao Fujin is the daughter-in-law of the criminal minister Cai Jing. It should have been sent to Jinying as soon as possible, but it was too late. I'm afraid that the peace talks will not be successful.

Zhao Huan was heartbroken, but if he refused. I definitely can't go back. He found a reason for himself: even if he didn't allow it, if the peace agreement could not be reached, his sister Zhao Fujin would not be able to escape the doom, so it was better to sacrifice Zhao Fujin and protect the Zhao Song Sect, so he tearfully agreed.

But things didn't go according to the wishes of both parties. Two days later, when Li Ruoshui led the golden envoy back to the city to invite Emperor Maode out of the city, and Han Li was ready to marry, an accident happened, not only Emperor Maode, but almost all the emperors in the capital disappeared, and the rest were still feeding.

……

The Jurchens were furious, they didn't believe it at all, and sent people into the palace to search for the governor's mansion, but there was really no one, and the story was almost understood, this thing was actually done by Zhao Ta, the king of Qin, who had become an immortal, and he took his sisters away.

It turned out that the emperors had been waiting for the official family to return for a long time, so they agreed to go to the Immortal Temple to pray for the blessing of the official family. So headed by the eldest princess Jiade Emperor Ji Zhao Yupan, there is a husband with a husband, and a child is holding a child, except for a few emperors who are still in infancy and have no title, all go to the concept of eternal life, this line of people plus guards, personal entourage, and maids There are thousands of people, and it is also a sensation, not to mention the people in the city, even the Jurchens on the city wall have followed to watch the excitement for a long time, because the Qin Wangfu is not far from the city wall, and it can be seen clearly.

This concept of immortality in the capital after several times of rooting actually remained intact, there was no loss, even the Jurchen commissioner did not dare to tamper with the view of a thing, the people in the city said that the King of Qin was afraid to kill them when he was alive, and they were also afraid when they died, if the King of Qin was still in the city, I am afraid that the Jurchens would have already withdrawn, of course, even the portrait of the King of Qin on the city gate may be more effective than those divine soldiers.

When it came to the Immortal Temple, it was impossible for so many people to go in, only a group of emperors and their families entered the main hall, and there were more than 100 people, and the rest stayed outside the hall and waited. At noon, the hall suddenly sounded bells and drums, and chimes sounded, and golden light shone through, followed by a puff of smoke, and then it was silent.

The people guarding outside the hall hurriedly rushed into the hall, but only the master Wang Laozhi sat alone, the emperor and his party disappeared without a trace, everyone hurriedly inquired, Wang Laozhi opened his eyes and pointed to the statue of King Qin and sat on the main hall, everyone saw him look serene, smiling, thinking that just now King Qin appeared not only took away all the sisters, but also ignited Wang Laozhi, and went to the fairy road together...

After hearing the report, Zong Han was furious, he thought that someone was pretending to be King Qin Chengxian and coaxing them to send someone to burn the Immortal Temple. But they were not stopped by Han Li, they were not the opponents of King Qin when they were alive, and they let him put a place when they died, it can be seen that they must not be mortals, and they admired it even more in their hearts, and they faintly felt that their immortality was only false, and it was true to bury their names in this way, if they were angry, there would be no good fruit to eat!

Although he failed to burn the concept of immortality, Zong Han also made a ruthless move, he saw that the things of the golden silk were really exhausted, and this time he no longer asked for the golden silk, but people. The craftsmen of the Imperial Palace's ordnance supervisor will be the supervising craftsmen, the craftsmen who make belts, hats, pens and inkstones, the craftsmen who carve books, and the artists who perform acrobatics, storytellers, shadow puppets, singers, puppet shows, zithers, shengsheng, and pipa are all blacklisted.

Even Cai Jing, Wang Hao, Tong Guan, Liang Shicheng and others were singers and dancers in the former mansion, these people were released back to the people after the new emperor ascended the throne and the master was unlucky, and most of them were scattered in Kaifeng Mansion to find another career, and it was difficult to escape the doom at this moment. Kaifeng Mansion Yin sent his subordinates to arrest according to the name, for a time the city was crying everywhere, the sky was miserable, the wives of the people were scattered, calling for children and daughters, and crying goodbye to relatives, everyone knew that Lu Dao did not know when he would meet again, and he was afraid that the reunion would be in the underworld. Those who have lost their souls, but farewell! (To be continued......)
