At the head of Chang'an City, Jingzhao Yin Wei Yu was quite helpless to usher in a group of squires from outside the city who came in to persuade them to surrender, these people are all prominent families who live in Chang'an, and they came under the banner of Sangzi Tranquility, although Wei Yu was determined to stick to Chang'an and be loyal to the Great Song Dynasty, but he also wanted to leave a back road for himself and the soldiers and civilians of Chang'an. At present, Chang'an has been isolated from the outside world for a long time, and from these familiar squires, they can also inquire about the situation of the outside world. opened the letter casually, but Wei Yu was shocked, this letter was the handwriting of Cai Yu, the queen of the Southern Tang Dynasty.

"When the monarch offered Tu to the Song Dynasty, so that Sangzi was saved from being ruined, the merit is not small, the hardships of the king, I also know very well, and do not blame, today's summer into the army, the situation is the same as that year, why not choose the good and follow, so that the people of one side are free from the disaster of swords. ”

Wei Yu was appreciated by Cai Yu for his book, and was awarded the Hongwenguan school scholar, and then he was promoted to the important position of judge of the Xiongyuan Army, however, when the Song army invaded the Tang Dynasty, Wei Yu could not defend the land, but surrendered to the Song Dynasty when Tu wanted to land. Zhao Kuangyin and Zhao Guangyi brothers all love to use scholars, Wei Yu also gradually promoted to Jing Zhaoyin with his own talent, and then transferred to Songzhou and Langzhou, Ding Wei later reinstated as an official, because the businessman Jia Haogin near Chang'an thought that he was an honest official and could protect the people, and paid to help him take the post of Jing Zhaoyin for the second time. Unexpectedly, Cai Yu, the old lord of the Southern Tang Dynasty, who had long since passed away, was still alive, and was taken in by the Xia Kingdom, and wrote a letter to persuade him to put the people of Jingzhao first and surrender the Xia Kingdom with Chang'an City.

"I have already taken the responsibility of the queen, how can I bear the Bianliang official family again. Wei Yu folded the letter, and was about to take it to the candle to burn it, muttered for a long time, and slowly retracted his hand, and put the letter in his arms.

At this moment, in Bianliang City, Zhao Jiong did not have the heart to consider the battle situation in Guanzhong, the rebels were menacing, and the state capitals along the way almost fell to the wind.

"There are many people in front of the palace and the guards who have left the town, and there are only 50,000 soldiers left behind in Bianliang. The privy envoy Cao Bin said quite carefully, he was more worried that the remaining forbidden army had a lot of entanglements with the rebels, and it was not as loyal to the official family as the elite of the imperial front class.

Since Zhang Yongde and Liu Yanrang rebelled and Zhao Dezhao disappeared, Zhao Jiong's face has become more and more gloomy, and his hair has turned a lot whiter, he stared at Cao Bin with quite suspicious eyes, as if he was the internal response of Zhang and Liu's second generals.

"The road between Jiangling and Bashu has long been cut off by Shu thieves, and recently Xia thieves have occupied Hangu Pass and Dasan Pass, and cut off the connection between Guanzhong and Shu," Hou Mowu, deputy envoy of Chongyi, said, "So ......"

"Okay, I know," Zhao Jiong closed his eyes quite tiredly, when the heavens and the earth are together, and the heroes are not free, and said in a low voice: "All the classes of direct guards have the heavy responsibility of guarding the imperial city, and I will consider the matter of going to the city to help defend it." With a wave of his hand, he asked Cao Bin and the other ministers to step back.

Beside the official road in Xiangzhou, in the ten-mile pavilion, Zhao Dezhao and Wang Yu looked north, and saw a group of people and horses with the word "Yang" in the distance, and then went out of the pavilion. Yang Yanzhao turned over the saddle and dismounted from a distance, ran quickly in front of Zhao Dezhao, and said in a deep voice: "Your Highness personally greets you, kills the last general, please forgive Yanzhao for the crime of being late!" He was fashionable at first and had to be careful to avoid the eyes and ears of the government along the way, but later, he found that all the states and counties were panicked, and Cao Bin even concentrated all the forbidden troops stationed in nearby states and counties to Bianliang, and was dedicated to guarding against the rebels in the northeast.

Zhao Dezhao helped Yang Yanzhao up, and said happily: "The Yang family's father and son are famous generals, pillars in the country, and this king has to help Yanzhao, it is really like a fish in water." With a wave of his hand, five servants stepped forward with a wooden plate, which contained a gold seal, a brocade robe, a jade belt, a scarf, and a sword. Seeing the doubt on Yang Yanzhao's face, Zhao Dezhao said: "The safety of the lonely body is in danger, so I entrust the hand of General Yang." If the big thing is accomplished, can General Yang be willing to lead the forbidden guards for the lonely commander?" Zhao Dezhao's tone was sincere, but Yang Yanzhao was a little sincere and afraid, regardless of the armor on his body, he immediately knelt down on one knee and bowed his head and said: "Your Highness is trustworthy, Yan Zhao is willing to die for His Highness!"

Wang Yu looked at the two monarchs and ministers, he was also born in troubled times, grew up in the army, and was familiar with the art of looking at qi, these five thousand Yang family troops are indeed the best soldiers in the world, if Zhang Yongde and Liu Yanlet the two generals see this brave general and the elite soldiers next to His Royal Highness, even if they are really ambitious, I am afraid they can only temporarily clean up.

A few days later, Zhang Yongde, Liu Yanrang, and Cao Han successively joined forces under Bianliang City, and the army drove to Bianliang City, outside the east gate.

Seeing that the city gate was closed, and the guards did not open the city gate to welcome the king, Liu Yanrang was furious, and he wanted to reprimand the generals to prepare to attack the city.

Wang Yu smiled and persuaded: "It's all in the same vein of the forbidden army, it's always not good to fight in the same room, General Liu is slow and angry, and let the juniors and General Yang escort His Royal Highness to go to know the reason and persuade the guard." ”

Liu Yanrang was stunned for a moment, his face showed doubt, and when he saw that Wang Yu didn't seem to be laughing, he said in a deep voice: "Then there is Lord Laowang." ”

The commander of the East Gate is the commander of the Xiaowu Army, Dong Zunzhi, seeing the 100,000 army in the siege formation, he is really like an ant on a hot pot, he keeps looking into the distance, and finally sees a group of men and horses surrounded by a noble man in a yellow robe, and he can't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"In Xia Hanlin Scholar Wang Yu, dare to ask which general is the defender of Dongcheng?" Wang Yu shouted with a loud face.

Dong Zunzhi hurriedly signaled his personal soldiers to reply: "My general is the commander of the Xiaowu Army, Lord Dong Zunzhi!" Xiaowu Duyu Hou Lin Zhong looked at the main general with confusion.

"It turned out to be General Dong, who has been admired for a long time. Wang Yu smiled and said, "In this time, I will escort His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of Emperor Taizu into Beijing and ascend the throne, and I hope that General Dong will open the city gate to welcome Wang Shi, His Royal Highness will not forget this meritorious service!" He turned his head and nodded with a smile to Yang Yanzhao, who was puzzled.

"The last general has long looked forward to the succession of His Royal Highness the Prince, please forgive the last general's belated sin!" Dong Zunzhi saw Zhao Dezhao and Wang Yu clearly, overjoyed, and immediately ordered the defenders to open the city gate, and personally took Lin Zhong to the outside of the city gate to greet him, and told Lin Zhong as he walked: "Follow me out to meet Your Highness, this support is not able to run away, Lord Wang values you very much, if you are prosperous in the future, don't forget Yu Wu." Lin Zhong hurriedly arched his hand and said: "The general's grace will be remembered in the heart of the general." ”

Zhang Yongde and Liu Yanrang watched the Bianliang City Gate slowly open with expressionless faces, the Great Song Dynasty Forbidden Army, which has long been famous in the world, is worthy of its tradition of grass on the wall, and once again embraced the new monarch, Zhang Yongde and Liu Yanrang glanced at each other, and they all read the fear of Wang Yu from each other's eyes. Seeing Wang Yu talking and laughing, Dong Zunzhi opened the city gate, and a sentence appeared in their minds at the same time: "The merit is greater than the support." I can't help but wonder how many of my subordinates have secretly been loyal to Zhao Dezhao.
