Zhao Yongbu first fought with the Jin army from Zhongjing in Yangcheng, three battles and three victories, the enemy was defeated, and the Jin army retreated to Zhongjing, guarded by Tanshan, and did not dare to engage in another battle. The lion will send troops from Tiancheng and enter Fengsheng Prefecture, first Kehuai'an, and then attack Guihua Prefecture. According to the Jin army, which was guarding the front line of Longshan, fearing that it would be surrounded by the Xijing army, it took the initiative to withdraw and retreat into Zhongjing, and deployed defenses along the Heihe River. Zhao Yong's troops crossed the Tianling Mountains, and the two armies combined forces to move south, approaching Nanjing Road.

Wanyan Zongwang was shocked when he heard the news, and hurriedly led the army out of Juyongguan to reinforce Khan Prefecture and Ruzhou, at this time the Xijing Army completed the plan to recover Fengshengzhou, deployed along the Sanggan River, and confronted the Jin army across the river. The Jin army was defeated in Fengshengzhou, and the Tatar tribes saw that the soldiers and horses on the Xijing Road were strong, and they did not dare to fight again, so they surrendered and became subordinates of Xijing.

In December, Zhao Ta entered the Xijing city of Datong, and in the past three months, he led the army to fight, restored the entire territory of the Xijing Road of the former Liao State, subdued the White Tatar tribes, and more than doubled the territory under his control, which greatly changed the situation in Xijing.

On the tenth day of December, Yu Liyan, the princess of the prison country, was seriously ill, and Zhao Er, the princess of the prison country, was named the king of Jin, the generalissimo of soldiers and horses, and was in charge of the government.

After Zhao Ta took over Xijing, he first carried out the reform of the imperial court, set up a government affairs yuan in charge of state affairs, and appointed Yelu Yu as the prime minister and Zhou Xingji as the vice minister. Zhao Li raised the Privy Council and presided over military work. There are six departments, with Xu Hong as the secretary of the ministry, Qiao Kun as the secretary of the household department, Yang Shi as the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, Zhao Yi as the secretary of the military department, Xiao Dejian as the secretary of the Ministry of Works, and Xiao Xianfu as the secretary of the criminal department.

He also ordered Chen Dong to restore the road school, establish academies, and set up state schools and county schools in each prefecture. Provided by the state and educated the people. Nurturing talent. The students in the teaching brigade who followed Chen Dong into the northwest were assigned to serve in various states and counties, and after such a big change. Xijing is almost all Zhao Ta's people.

Zhao Ta then began to carry out professional reform of the army according to his own ideas, first establishing the Xijing Lecture and Martial Arts Hall, setting up five departments of infantry, cavalry, artillery, baggage, and doctors, and then recruiting students from the whole army and Xijing Middle School to train middle-level military commanders at and above the capital level, and to teach brigade commanders and grass-roots commanders at the team level.

The second is the implementation of the military rank system, so as to adjust the service period, change the situation of soldiers' lifelong service, and prevent the return to the old road of redundant soldiers in the Great Song Dynasty. Zhao Ta is also lazy. The modern thirteen-level military rank system was copied, and the maximum service period was set for the fourth rank of colonel, lieutenant, and sergeant. These already had a prototype when the Loyal Army was first established, and there was no resistance to doing it.

The army was reorganized again, and the Kryu Army and the Loyal and Brave Army were merged and expanded and renamed the Zhongxing Army, with Zhao Yong as the commander and Zhao Yan as the deputy commander, and there were still five generals. For each additional brigade, six brigades will be added, with an artillery brigade and a special operations battalion directly under it, plus a baggage brigade, a scout battalion, an engineer brigade, and a guard battalion, each of which will have an establishment of 20,000 people.

The corresponding prince's guards brigade was also expanded into a guard division. It has an establishment of 8,000 men and has jurisdiction over two guard brigades, a special operations brigade, an internal guard brigade and a baggage brigade. With Zhao Zhong as the commander, he was responsible for the security and security of the Xijing Royal City. Travel with the prince.

As the main force of national defense strength, the Zhongxing Army is responsible for defending the country. The duty to resist aggression and expand territory. As for the states under the jurisdiction of Xijing, a state army was formed to be responsible for guarding the state and suppressing the rebellion. In the border areas, various tribes took turns to send troops in turn, and at the same time, they recruited landless Han people to the border areas to open up wasteland and reclaim land, establish pastures, and consolidate border defense.

In this way, there were a total of 150,000 soldiers in Xijing, and the population of Xijing was 1.6 million in its heyday, and after years of war, the population was sharply reduced to 1 million, and it can be said that Alexandria had to feed an army of 150,000 people with one million people, but Xijing had to be like this in the place of four wars.

Zhao Ta became the big housekeeper, all kinds of things are complicated, and he can't sleep every day, and what makes him even more distressed is to see his small treasury empty day by day, this is his accumulation for many years, and now he has contributed to Xijing...

………

Anyone can do things that go smoothly, but those who can rise against the current and achieve a career are really worthy of admiration. In the blink of an eye, a year has passed, and in the fourth year of Jingkang in the Great Song Dynasty, Zhao Ta worked hard in Xijing, trained the whole army, accumulated strength, and was always vigilant against the ambitions of the Jurchens.

was tossed by Zhao Ta, delayed the demise of the Great Song Dynasty, and stumbled and survived to this day. Zhao Huan also wanted to do something, and he issued an edict to exempt 17 maladministrations in order to alleviate the suffering of the people and try to revive the former glory of the Great Song Dynasty. But although Chaozhong has experienced a purge by Zhao Huan, these people have also declined under the influence of a generation. Geng Nanzhong and his group of villains manipulated the government and government, and purely used villains, and the country had to work hard if it wanted to be good.

Zhao Huan has been looking at the Jurchens with anxiety about the war, he is worried that the Jin army will go south again, but he doesn't want to fight from the bottom of his heart. However, the main warlord and the two factions of the DPRK and China are still fighting each other, and they advocate peace, on the grounds that Kim cannot afford to provoke them, how good it is to live in peace, and using the limited military strength for defense can ensure peace. The main battle is to wash away the humiliation of the Jin army under the city and recover Yanjing, which was taken back by the Jin army.

In an era of decline, there must be a twilight trend of thought that is barely the spiritual pillar, and this trend of thought must be quite utilitarian. Now the main peace is still the mainstream of the court, because the emperor doesn't want to fight, and in the feudal dynasty, only the emperor has the final say, you don't please the emperor, you don't make the emperor happy, how can the emperor give you a chance? How can you fulfill your ambitions? The emperor is also a human being, and if you are a human being, you will make mistakes, you always criticize him, he is not happy, he will ignore you if he is not happy, no matter how capable you are, you will be a fart? So everyone coaxed the emperor to be happy.

In fact, whether it is war or peace, it is to defend the country of the Great Song Dynasty, but whether it is war or peace, there is a need for strength behind it, which is precisely the weakest place of the Great Song Dynasty. The Song soldiers could not overcome the shortcomings accumulated for many years, and their combat effectiveness could not be improved rapidly, and they were finally defeated by the Jin soldiers. Although he was determined to resist after signing the alliance under the castle, he could not overcome it immediately due to the depth of the accumulated shortcomings, and the battle was not so easy.

But things are not all transferred by your Zhao Huan's will, in the Great Song Dynasty, everyone can follow you and play with you, but the Jurchens don't care about him. As soon as they collected the summer tax, they hurriedly sent it to the Jin Kingdom, but the Jurchens sent envoys to ask why they sent some grain mixed with chaff, silver in poor condition, and thin silk that cut corners as tribute.
