Jin Shangjing is located in the big triangle area at the confluence of the Tongtong River and the Hushui and the Aden River, the remaining veins of the Changbai Mountain lie in the east of the capital from south to north, the terrain has transitioned from the vast and flat plains to the hilly and shallow mountainous landforms, the undulating terrain is like waves around the capital, and the city is built on the platform on the west bank of the flat Aten River. This was originally the residence of the Jurchen Wanyan Department, commonly known as the emperor's village, the imperial village, and the country's separation. Jin Taizong began to build the capital, called Huining Mansion.

Since the construction began in the late period of the Aguda administration, and then the two emperors Wu Qimai and Wanyan Kang have been continuously built for more than 20 years, the palace and ancestral temple have been completed and become the political and economic center of the Jin State. The whole city is rammed with yellow clay, the outline of the thick city wall stands up, the circumference is as long as 23 li, imitates the Liao Shangjing system, the overall layout is divided into two cities in the north and south, showing the trend of horizontal and vertical opposites, the south city is horizontally arranged, the north city is vertically arranged, the southern city lives in the Jurchen aristocracy, and the north city is the industrial and commercial area. The scale of the imperial city is in accordance with the capital of the Northern Song Dynasty, Bianjing, and is located in the west of the southern city.

The whole city has a strong defensive color, has a complete defense system, and the corner tower is built on each of the five corners of the city, which is the key fortification on the city wall. The city wall has nine gates, seven of which have urn cities, all surrounded by moats, and there are also horse faces. At the intersection of the north and south cities, a wall was built to separate the north and south cities, and there was also a moat from west to east between the two cities......

On the Fude Palace, Wan Yan was full of sadness and paleness, sitting weakly on the dragon chair, looking at the civil and military ministers below who were also listless and helpless. He had already received the news of the annihilation of the entire army from the reinforcements sent to rescue Yan Yanying, and the Song Army's Western Route Army was less than fifty miles away from the city. And the news from Huanglong Mansion is not good. The city was lost, and the defenders were killed. Zhao Er led his troops to cross the river from the lower reaches of the Mingtong River, less than 100 miles away from the Beijing Division. It will take less than two days to arrive in the city.

In just half a month, nearly 300,000 soldiers of the Jin Kingdom were defeated, several senior generals were killed, Wanyan Yanying, Tang Kuobi, Wanyan Alin, Mou Yan, etc., these are all the generals who have just risen in the Great Jin Kingdom, and the hope for the revival of the Jin Kingdom. The bad news is like a sharp knife. Coldly and mercilessly inserted into Wan Yan's heart, leaving him in agony, grief, and panic.

Wan Yan Kang was very sad, very painful, and very confused, why he had worked hard for many years to turn the tide and try to get the Dajin Kingdom rid of the oppression of the Southern Dynasty, but all his efforts had come to naught, why did God treat the Jurchens so unfairly. Is he really going to be the king of the country? The armies of the two routes have almost been wiped out, and the shape has deteriorated to the point of "the mountains and rivers are exhausted, there is no way out, and there is no village in the willows and flowers".

Wanyan almost fell into despair, but as a descendant of the Jurchen warriors, as the emperor of the Jin Kingdom. He would never surrender to the Mongols, so he even had the idea of hanging himself and martyrdom for a time. However, the pain also wants a good medicine, so that Wan Yan Yan began to reflect on his absurd behavior for many years. Introspective, he finally dispelled the idea of martyrdom, realizing that this would only hasten the demise of the Jin Kingdom.

And when Yan Yan thought of the difficulties of his ancestors' entrepreneurship. It is even more dangerous than it is now, so this is not the time to give up completely and surrender and admit defeat. Only by rising up again can we save the country. And now does not seem to be the time to be sad and cry and complain, the Song army has entered the Beijing division in full depth, but there are only 40,000 soldiers in the city, and they must try their best to save themselves again.

Taking advantage of the fact that the Song army has not completely surrounded Huining City and leaving may be a good choice at present, so that he can escape with his life first and leave the capital for a comeback. But this is also an extremely dangerous road, not only to abandon the ancestors' tombs and the soldiers and civilians in the city, leaving behind the name of cowardice to flee without a fight, but also where to flee is also a problem. The Jin Kingdom once occupied all the lands of the Khitan, the largest country in the world, but now it has become the bag of the Great Song Dynasty, leaving only the last land of Huining Mansion, and the only way to escape is to go to the extremely cold land in the north.

After thinking about it, Wan Yan thought that running away was not the best way, not to mention avoiding the pursuit of the Song people like a lost dog, and losing the last hole card to fight against. Now he still occupies the fortified city, and he still has hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians under his command to dispatch, and if he leaves, he will lose the favorable conditions that he has in front of him. Therefore, Wan Yan decided to stay and make a final struggle with the Song army.

After quickly adjusting his feelings, he rose up like a return, and first decided to issue an edict to review what he had done. This time he fully demonstrated his profound literary skills, an edict of guilt expressed his true feelings of repentance and mourning, his words were sincere, the words were sincere, the words were touching, and the tears were induced, and the land was lost, the people suffered, and the lives were devastated.

And then Wan Yan thought that the fate of the country was so tragic, maybe it was time to change the era name, and maybe he could change his luck by changing the era name, so he decided to change the era name to Xingfu, in order to express his desire to rejuvenate the Dajin Kingdom. But the so-called reform and sin are only superficial to motivate his subjects, and perhaps these wills will not help to save the fate of the Jin Kingdom, but he must try.

Wan Yan also understood that the real salvation of Shangjing had to rely on the soldiers who defended the city. Although most of the elite generals of the Dajin Kingdom were martyred on the bank of the black water, after all, there were still so many elites in the capital city. Huining City has a population of 300,000, and the population that fled into the city in the later period is now more than 400,000, he ordered all Ding Zhuang to be incorporated into the volunteer to participate in the war, and there will be more than 100,000 available soldiers in the city.

Now almost all around the capital can be seen galloping and wandering back and forth of the Song cavalry, and the contact with the outside world has almost been cut off, and after the Southern and Northern Expeditions, various places have fallen and the fields have been destroyed. There was no way to collect taxes, and there was a shortage of grain and grass in the city. Obviously, it cannot solve the problem of food and clothing for tens of thousands of soldiers. Wan Yan also issued an order to implement the policy of bracketing, that is, the modern military food supply and distribution system. The food of hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians in the city was handed over to the marshals of all armies, and each army was responsible for distributing food, and the standard was one stone and five buckets per person per month, so as to prepare for a long-term war of resistance......

The determination has been made, and the posture has been put out, but Wan Yan is not a mature politician and a qualified military commander after all, so he still has to ask a few important ministers.

"Taishi, the Song army has approached Jingshi, how do you think we should deal with it?" Wan Yan Yan said that he had changed his ways. To be a good emperor again, the place of meeting will be chosen in the Jigu Palace, which is one of the three major halls of the imperial city, and it is also the emperor's imperial study, and the surrounding bookshelves are full of books and classics looted from Bianjing in the Song Dynasty, but now the Song army has come to the city, which is really a bit ironic.

"Your Majesty, the minister thought that while actively preparing for war, he should make peace again. As long as we drag on for another month. Winter is coming, and the southerners are not tolerant of the bitter cold, and their combat power is greatly reduced; In addition, the Song army's baggage was transported by water, and the rivers froze at that time. They will not be able to get supplies in time, and they will struggle to survive the months-long winter. At that time, His Majesty called out, and the soldiers and civilians from all over the country rose up. We can take the opportunity to counterattack and regain the lost states. Wushu said, leaning back on the couch. His condition was getting worse and worse, and it was difficult for him to sit for a long time. And the proposed construction yì is still a rehash of the same old tune, and time should be exchanged for space.

"Well, what else do those Aiqing have to do?" Wan Yan nodded modestly and turned his face to ask the others.

"This ...... The minister thinks that what the Taishi said is very right, we can start to make peace again to delay time! Taibao Wanyan Zongmin said.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that after the arrival of the soldiers of the King of Qin from all over the country, we should fight a decisive battle with the enemy, as long as we defeat it, we will be able to regain the lost ground by pursuing it." Taifu Wanyan Zongxiong said that a few days ago, when he learned that his son Ah Lin had died in battle, his love was always unstable, and he always thought about revenge.

"Yes, what do you have good ideas for Arubu and Uze?" Wan Yan Yan listened to the words of the two and had no new ideas, but he didn't express any dissatisfaction, but asked the two young people who were the only ones left.

"Your Majesty, the minister thought that Wulu was ......," said the servant after thinking about it.

"Presumptuous, don't mention that rebellion again!" As soon as Zhi Ning's words came out, he was interrupted by Wushu with an angry face. Wanyan Yong's rebellion against Jin has always been a pain in Wushu's heart, and he doesn't want to hear anything about it, or even its name.

"Taishi, don't be angry, let the Wu Zhi finish speaking." Wan Yan didn't care, and let the servant scatter Zhongyi to continue.

"Yes, the minister thinks that although Liaoyang City was eventually lost, it is a good idea to use water as a soldier, there are two big rivers on the side of Huining City, why don't we follow suit and dig the river embankment to irrigate the city, so that the enemy army cannot get close." Servant Sanzhong said carefully, trying to avoid words that made the Taishi taboo.

"Well, this plan is feasible, Huining City is independent of the high platform, and digging the river embankment will not flood the city, we just need to wait for the arrival of the cold." Wan Yan said with a smile, obviously satisfied.

"Your Majesty, the minister thought that he could also build a wall around the city, and it was built with twists and turns, and the road only allowed three or two people to go in parallel, which made it difficult for the enemy army to deploy and could not attack the city on a large scale, and the city was supplemented by artillery bombardment, which was enough to resist the enemy." In fact, his strategy was only a combination of the siege methods used by the Wushu in Goryeo and the advantages of the boundary trenches, which made it difficult for the Song army to give full play to its field strengths, and it could also limit the use of the enemy's artillery.

"Well, this strategy is also wonderful, you can mobilize the army and civilians to build overnight before the enemy arrives." Wan Yan said happily, this is really three stinkers who have beaten Zhuge Liang, not to mention that he still has good ministers and fierce generals on his side, so why be afraid of Zhao Er.

Time was pressing, Wan Yan said to do it, he was not as big as Wan Yan Yong waiting for the arrival of the Song army to dig a breach, but ordered the Ministry of Industry to send someone to immediately lead 10,000 people to dig the embankment, let the river flood around the city to prevent the Song army from approaching. At the same time, he let the servants scatter and lead 20,000 soldiers and horses to patrol the river, and move all the people along the river into the city. Of course, he will not let Su Shi Lie Zhining be idle, so he led 50,000 people to besiege the city and build a low wall, rushing to work day and night without delay.

At the same time, the city's Kuli operation also began, and this major event was personally handled by Zuo Xiangwan Yan Zongxiong. Originally, Kuli is not necessarily a bad thing, as long as it is strictly implemented in accordance with the standards and patiently publicizes the benefits of Kuli to the common people, Kuli can still be implemented normally. But Zongxiong doesn't seem to be up to the job, after all, he is used to shameless performances, and it seems a little difficult to occasionally want to express himself positively, so there is a problem in the specific operation of the policy.

For example, the original standard was that the strong people kept three stones of rice, and the old and young people kept half of the rice, but in practice, there was a problem again. Some of the people who carried out the order were eager to loot all the food in the people's homes, and even used force indiscriminately to forcibly suppress them, which caused the people in the city to be resentful and boiling, and all the rich and poor families were starving and waiting to die......
