"Your Highness! Kaifeng Guangfu! Kaifeng Guangfu! Kaifeng Guangfu!"

"Good!"

Looking at the generals who rushed inside and cried with joy, Gu Cheng smiled, and his mood was very calm.

When the Battle of Xiangyang broke out, Gu Cheng ordered an army of 50,000 to leave Chang'an and storm Kaifeng.

In less than three days, the former Northern Song Dynasty Tokyo, and now the Golden Kingdom Nanjing, were taken!

Thinking of Yue Fei's depressed and angry cry of "ten years of work, ruined in one fell swoop", Song Jiang no longer had the feeling of being born at the wrong time, and at this moment Xin Qijian was full of enthusiasm, and he couldn't wait to look up to the sky and roar.

I pity you the most for dancing in the middle of the night, a man, until my heart is like iron. Look at the test hand, mend the crack!

However, this ambition, when Gu Cheng's next sentence sounded, he was almost frightened: "Prepare to move to Kaifeng!"

The ministers were shocked: "Your Highness thinks twice, there is no danger to defend in Kaifeng!"

Why did the Northern Song Dynasty perish so simply?

The Song capital Kaifeng is easy to attack and difficult to defend, which is an important reason.

In fact, even Zhao Kuangyin once had the idea of moving the capital.

It is a pity that at the beginning of the founding of the Northern Song Dynasty, Kaifeng was really a helpless choice, because Kaifeng was the most important thing in the world at that time.

During the same period, Chang'an and Luoyang suffered great damage due to years of war, and their economies withered.

For the Song Dynasty, which implemented the policy of strong cadres and weak branches and stationed a huge army in the capital, Kaifeng was undoubtedly the only choice to build the capital to solve the problem of the supply of the government and the army.

When the Northern Song Dynasty was destroyed, Kaifeng was positioned by the Jin State as Nanjing, one of the four major capitals, as the ruling center of the south.

After more than 20 years in history, Mongolia officially rose, and after successive defeats to Jin, the Jin State even moved its capital to Kaifeng.

Of course, it was the same as the Southern Song Dynasty, it was just a long time to survive.

But now, if Gu Cheng enters Kaifeng, he will face the same problem in the Northern Song Dynasty and the Jin Kingdom in the future.

In the first battle of Xiangyang, the Song Dynasty destroyed 30,000 Jin troops and 5,000 Mongolian cavalry, and won a hearty victory.

However, Wanyanxiang and Temujin eventually fled, leading to the possibility of a comeback between the Jin and Mongols.

At this time, the risk of keeping Kaifeng is huge, which can be imagined!

Gu Cheng looked at Xin Qiji, Bi Zaiyu, and a group of generals who knelt down and asked for their lives, slowly stood up, came to the map, and pointed heavily: "Kaifeng has no danger of mountains and rivers, which is not conducive to defending, but it is conducive to attacking! Take the key points of attack and defense with the land of the four wars, vertical and horizontal, go south and north, and advance and retreat freely! Emperor Taizu is strategically offensive rather than defensive in order to achieve unification, have you forgotten that you have held it for too long?"

Under the deafening voice, all the ministers showed shame, and Gu Cheng said word by word: "I can guard the country by the Son of Heaven, and the rest depends on the generals!"

"I am willing to sweep the eight wildernesses and dominate the world for His Royal Highness!"

Since then, the goal of the Northern Expedition is no longer just to restore our rivers and mountains, but to unify the world and achieve the ambitious hegemony that Taizu Zhao Kuangyin failed to complete back then!

Half a month later, the prince drove himself and entered Kaifeng.

"Outside the mountain, the green mountain building outside the building, when will the West Lake sing and dance rest? The warm wind smokes the tourists drunk, and Hangzhou is made Bianzhou. ”

"The dead Yuan knows that everything is empty, but the sorrow is not the same as Kyushu. Wang Shi set the Central Plains Day in the north, and the family sacrifice did not forget to tell Naiweng. ”

Gu Cheng rode on the sweaty and bloody horse, looked at Kaifeng Mansion from afar, and suddenly silently recited two poems that had been praised through the ages.

The former has already been sung, but the latter part has not been born, Lu You is still alive, and there is no need to show it.

This history of shame was rewritten by his own hands, and the Southern Song Dynasty was no longer unenterprising, drunk and dreaming of death, but was about to reign over the world.

Such a sense of accomplishment cannot be described in words, and can only be experienced by personally looking at the ten-mile city wall full of traces of war.

Faintly, Gu Cheng had a deeper grasp of the "Tao".

It's not just for the sake of the gods, nor is it for the fulfillment of the responsibilities entrusted by the Great Han Dragon Spirit, but for oneself.

The unattainable dream of a modern man!

"Great Song Tianwei!

The people greeted each other and cheered, and countless people looked at His Royal Highness the Prince, who was like a god descending from heaven, with tears in their eyes, and the soldiers and soldiers of the army had unparalleled glory.

But there are also many people with blank and indifferent faces, and even some of them faintly reveal hatred.

Those who were also Han Chinese, but had a vested interest under the rule of the Jin dynasty.

Seventy years of rule is enough to erase the national imprint, and the sense of belonging has changed from Song to gold.

Therefore, in the eyes of these people, there is no king who has recovered the lost land, only invaders!

These people are all unstable factors, but they cannot be cleaned for a while.

After Yan Xiang was defeated in the Battle of Xiangyang, he knew that Kaifeng could not hold it, so he simply destroyed all the grain, grass and baggage in the city.

Kaifeng as a large city with a population of more than 100,000 people, grain and grass is the top priority, Duanping into Luo is a typical negative example, the people were worried that the Song army entered the city after grabbing grain, if they can't wait to carry out the purge, it will only cause a mutiny, out of control.

Internal and external troubles, this is a problem that Wan Yanxiang gave Gu Cheng.

Aren't you going to reclaim the old capital? I'll give you the old capital and see if you can hold it!"

"How can it be difficult for me?"

Gu Cheng smiled slightly, and Wei Jinzhong, who was standing on the side, immediately beckoned.

Swish!

Nearly 100 monks suddenly walked out of the crowd, led by Ku Hui's hands folded, and released his true qi to open the way, while the monks in the rear carried grain bags on their shoulders, came to the center, and shouted in unison: "Shaolin Temple offers 10,000 stones!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked.

This is just the beginning, and next, the disciples of the Jingyi Sect, who were wearing patched clothes but had been very clean, came out of the ranks under the leadership of Hong Qi.

"The beggars give 10,000 stones!"

"The Iron Palm Gang will donate 10,000 stones!"

......

When the originally unruly martial arts sect, a dusty person in the rivers and lakes, carrying rice and grain on his shoulders, presented it to the prince of the Great Song Dynasty, a spiritual force of unity and unity suddenly infected everyone.

No matter how indifferent the person is, he also shows his face, and the person with a ghost in his heart is as pale as the earth, and he is uneasy.

The main event is yet to come-

"The Heavenly Ninja Sect abandons the darkness and surrenders to the light, offering 20,000 stones of grain, 100 flint cannons, and 300 trebuchets!"

When King Likong appeared with a group of Heavenly Ninja disciples, if Wan Yanxiang was here, I was afraid that he would be so angry that a mouthful of old blood would spurt out.

All because of the roster that Feng Sheng handed over at the end, coupled with the detoxification method of the Three Corpse Brain Divine Pill, the remaining Heavenly Ninja disciples all chose to surrender.

In the First Battle of Lin'an, although the killers and assassins of the Heavenly Ninja Sect suffered heavy casualties, and all the masters of the Five Halls were wiped out, it still had a large number of officials placed in the Great Song Dynasty and the Jin Ting.

Wan Yan Xiang was planning for a rainy day, and Feng Sheng had already had the idea of causing chaos between Song and Jin, and now Gu Cheng was logical and pulled out all the nails of Song, and Jin's officials grabbed the handle.

It is thanks to this that these grains and grasses can be safely sent into Kaifeng.

And after a show of offering grain, one spread ten, ten spread hundreds, and the people's hearts in Kaifeng quickly stabilized.

The army and the people in the rivers and lakes worked together to arrest the rebels, and the people cooperated with each other, and the army and the people were united.

Kaifeng must be, Gu Cheng left 50,000 soldiers and horses to defend, set up stone artillery on the city wall, trebuchets in the city, and Wanyan Xiang came to attack several times, but all returned in vain.

Xin abandoned the disease to seize the Tong Pass, Bi again encountered the patrol of the Yellow River, the two veterans opened the Guanhe defense line, the external defense against the invasion of the Mongolian iron cavalry, and the internal and Jin Lian clashed, more than a dozen battles, there were victories and defeats.

After learning of Feng Sheng's death, Feng Yu was grief-stricken, and sent an envoy to Western Xia, the lord Li Chunyou was unwilling to attach himself to the Great Song Dynasty, and the envoy instigated Li An'an to rebel according to the plan, deposed Li Chunyou to stand on his own and supported the Great Song Dynasty.

Feng Yu then used Baituo Villa to select 800 dead soldiers, dressed as Mongolian warriors, and entered Western Liao under the leadership of Ouyang Feng.

At this time, the Western Liao State was strong and there were many vassal states, but the Liao Emperor was mediocre, and he used troops externally for many years, intensified exploitation internally, and indulged in safaris.

Ouyang Feng bribed the Western Liao magnates again, and the Liao Emperor immediately declared war on Mongolia.

Temujin had no choice but to withdraw his troops, and at the time of the war, Huang Yaoshi got the help of Wang Chongyang, took Yan Jing to escape, and went to Shangjing.

Shangjing is the place where Wanyan Aguta died, located in Huining Province, and has now become a symbolic capital, related to sacrifices, because every year the Golden Emperor has to come here to deal with the corresponding government affairs, or there are troops stationed.

Wanyanxiang was unfavorable in the war, lost the land again and again, and Wanyanjing was orthodox, so he was immediately supported, Wanyanjing re-ascended the throne, and called on the kings of Qin everywhere.

Since then, the north and south of the Jin Kingdom have been divided, and the Great Song Dynasty has been like a bamboo, attacking the city and plundering the land again and again.

Shaoxi eight years, spring.

The Song army besieged the capital.
