Chapter 248: Snow Hidden Yue Fei (Asking for a Monthly Pass!) )
…
After the coffin in the seed master was escorted to Bianliang City in Tokyo by his nephew Chong Shu, Zhao Huan cried sadly, and wrote a memorial to the seed master with his own hands: "Appeal to the tiger minister, forget your body!" ”
Zhao Huan also sent his attendant Zhang Shi to represent him to the priest.
Subsequently, Zhao Huan posthumously sealed the seed division as the envoy of the township German army, opened the palace with the three divisions, and promoted the descendants of the seed clan to become officials in the Zhao and Song dynasties.
Soon after, Zhao Huan Junchen held him responsible for the defeat, and Wang Congdao, the commander of the Chinese army, and Zhang Shizheng, the deputy commander of the Shengjie army, were beheaded by the Zhao and Song courts.
But—
People of insight privately said that the biggest responsibility for this defeat should be Zhao Huan and Xu Han, if they didn't know how to soldier, they still wanted people to command the battle on the front line in Bianliang City, Tokyo, and force the seed division to march quickly to relieve the siege of Taiyuan City and defeat the cadre army, so that the seed division would not raise its own army, and the seed division would not rush forward, and the Song army would not suffer this defeat.
In addition, some people concluded that the main reason for the defeat of the Song army this time was that there was no unified commander, and the seed division, Yao Gu and Zhang Hao all fought separately, which was broken by Yue Fei by seizing the opportunity.
The death of the seed master made the elder brother of the seed master very sad.
But the seed master Dao can't take care of the sadness now, he is already ninety percent sure, after the high horse is fattened this autumn, Li Cun will definitely lead the army to attack the Song Dynasty again.
Based on this, the master of the sect gave Zhao Huan a recital, asking Zhao Huan to transfer troops and horses from the six roads of Shaanxi, Hedong, Hebei, and Gyeonggi to guard the line of Cang, Wei, Meng, and Hua, that is, to abandon Hebei and Hedong to concentrate superior forces along the banks of the Yellow River to prevent the cadres from moving south, and to strengthen the southern defense line, so as to not allow the cadres to go north as easily as last year.
Zhao Huan actually attaches great importance to the suggestion of the Seed Master, but he can't make up his mind, should he implement it like this?
After all, if the suggestion of the seed master is adopted, it is basically equivalent to giving up Hebei and Hedong.
Zhao Huan thought about it again and again but couldn't make up his mind, and finally he brought Xu Churen, Wu Min, Geng Nanzhong and other Zaizhi to discuss whether the plan of the Cultivation Master Dao was feasible?
Unlike his previous focus on the main battle, after becoming the prime minister, Xu Churen encountered many practical difficulties that he had to consider, such as financial difficulties that he had neglected before.
You must know that Li Cunke has just taken away 10 million taels of gold and 100 million taels of silver from Bianliang City, Tokyo.
Although Zhao Huan quickly created a large amount of money to solve the financial problem.
But this still can't make up for the huge deficit of 10 million taels of gold and 100 million taels of silver.
Therefore, Xu Churen did not support the plan of planting the master Dao this time, but firmly believed that the Zhao Song Dynasty was in extreme financial difficulties now, if they were desperate to raise such a large amount of military expenditure to display heavy troops on the banks of the Yellow River, in case they thought too much in the end, Li Cun did not mean to attack the Zhao Song Dynasty again, wouldn't it make the already tense finances of the Zhao Song Dynasty even worse?
Zhao Huan felt that Xu Churen's proposition was very reasonable, and the Zhao and Song Dynasty really had no money and couldn't waste it so much, so he didn't adopt the suggestion of the seed master.
When he learned that Zhao Huan and Junchen had discussed such a stupid result, he became disheartened, so he officially proposed to Zhao Huan on the grounds that he was old and sick, hoping to return to his hometown.
At the same time, Geng Nanzhong set up the banner of the Lord and the Lord.
Geng Nanzhong advocated that the Zhao and Song dynasties were now weak, while the Daqian dynasty was now in full swing and strong in arms, and in this case, the use of troops against the Daqian dynasty could be said to be harmful to the Zhao and Song dynasties, and that Hebei and Hedong should be ceded to the Daqian dynasty in exchange for peace, so that they could keep the Zhao and Song dynasties.
As soon as Geng Nanzhong's proposal came out, it was immediately supported by Wang Shiyong, Xie Kejia, Li Hui, Li Zheng, Sun Mao, Wang Jizhi, Liu Guan and other ministers.
However, He Li, the right man of Shangshu and the servant of Zhongshu, firmly believes that the land of the ancestors must not be abandoned, if the Zhao and Song dynasties really cede Hebei and Hedong to the Daqian Dynasty to seek peace, it will only make the strength of the Daqian Dynasty stronger, and will also make the people of the Zhao and Song dynasties fall into the enemy's territory, which will definitely make the Song people disappointed in the Zhao and Song dynasties, and then throw themselves into the arms of the Daqian Dynasty.
Zhao Huan considered that he ceded Hebei and Hedong to Li Cun, he was really sorry for the ancestors of the Zhao family, and He Li was right, Li Cun's ultimate goal must be to seize the Central Plains, so even if he ceded Hebei and Hedong to Li Cun, it was impossible to seek eternal peace.
However, the problem is that if the Zhao and Song dynasties do not cede Hebei and Hedong, Li Cun will never withdraw his troops from Hebei and Hedong, so this war is bound to continue.
So how should this battle be fought?
Seeing that Zhao Huan was unwilling to negotiate peace, Geng Nanzhong proposed again, if he fought again this time, he would have to let the seed master Dao personally go to the front line to unify the command, so that it was possible to achieve victory.
Geng's proposal was supported by Wu Min.
Zhao Huan actually heard the analysis of those people of insight, the defeat of the Zhao Song Dynasty this time was mainly because the Song army did not have a unified command, he felt that if he also appointed a front-line commander like Yue Fei like Li Cun, instead of him laboriously commanding from Tokyo Bianliang City, the Song army might not be defeated, so Zhao Huan also wanted to let the seed master Dao leave Huazhou to go to the front line as the pre-war commander-in-chief, so that he would save a lot of effort and not have to worry about everything.
But the master believes that there is no point in fighting like this, and it is impossible to win the Daqian Dynasty at all, because so far, the Daqian Dynasty has not moved seriously, so the top priority of the Zhao and Song Dynasty now is not to compete with the Daqian Dynasty for Hebei and Hedong, and it is impossible to fight at all, but to first keep the basic plate south of the Yellow River and not lose it, and wait until the invasion of the Daqian Dynasty is repelled by the danger of the Yellow River, and then see if it is possible to cross the Yellow River to recover Hebei and Hedong according to the situation.
Another one, the body of the master is really not good, he is already seventy-six years old, and now he is riddled with old diseases, relying on his breath and his powerful obsession to hang his life.
Therefore, the seed master Dao tried his best to refrain from Zhao Huan's appointment, saying that he was now old and sick, and he really couldn't be the commander of the front, and it was likely that he would miss the major events of the Zhao and Song dynasties if he barely went to the front.
Chen Gongfu, the servant of the Imperial History, and Chen Guoting, the middle of the Imperial History, also said that the current health of the Seed Master Dao is too poor to let him go to the front line again.
Zhao Huan thought that Chen Gongfu, Chen Guoting, and the Taiwanese official Yu Yingqiu, who echoed them, were lobbying for him, so he was furious and dismissed the three from their positions on the spot, and drove all three out of the court.
Because of such an incident, no one dared to advise on this matter from then on.
Wu Min and Geng Nanzhong insisted that no one could subdue the hundreds of thousands of troops on the front line except for the Seed Master Dao.
Zhao Huan even directly ordered someone to draft an edict to plant a teacher to go to the front line.
The seed master Dao really couldn't move, so he wrote again to state: "By making the ministers immeasurable, forcibly going to the front line, if there is a case, it will harm my Great Song Dynasty and will not recover, and besides, if you call the ministers to command the troops, the ministers will order, and the army will withdraw to the Yellow River to hold on, but what?" ”
However, Zhao Huan did not agree to withdraw troops from Hebei and Hedong.
As a result, the two monarchs and ministers were at a stalemate......
Later, Xu Han personally went to Huazhou to find the planter, and then wrote the word "Du Post" on the table with his hand dipped in tea.
Fan Ju, the favorite of King Qin Zhao, wanted Bai Qi to lead the troops to attack Handan, but Bai Qi repeatedly said that he was sick and refused to accept the order, and three months later, the news of the defeat of the Qin army continued to come from Handan, and King Zhaoxiang was angry with Bai Qi, and ordered Bai Qi to leave immediately and not stay.
Bai Qi had to go on the road with illness, and after discussing with Fan Ju, King Zhaoxiang sent a messenger to give Bai Qi a sword to kill himself on the grounds that "Bai Qi was unwilling to obey the order, resulting in the defeat of the Qin army".
Bai Qi finally committed suicide in Du You.
The seed master understood that Xu Han was telling him that if he continued to complain about illness and refused to accept the order, he would be the second white rise.
The breeder had no choice but to drag his old and seriously ill body to lead more than 10,000 horses on the expedition.
Before leaving, the seed master once again wrote to Zhao Huan and said: "The minister goes out with illness, there is no reason to return, after the minister goes out, if there is no frustration, he will lead the army to advance bravely." Died on the battlefield, and the minister's wish was also. However, if the minister dies in battle, Your Majesty should not hesitate any longer, and immediately transfer soldiers and horses from Shaanxi, Hebei, Hedong, and Gyeonggi to guard the line of Cang, Wei, Meng, and Hua along the banks of the Yellow River, and concentrate superior forces as a plan to prevent autumn. I hope that Your Majesty can observe the solitary loyalty of the ministers, and take the righteousness of all the monarchs and ministers. ”
Zhao Huan was very pleased and moved by the statement of the planter.
But this did not make Zhao Huan change his mind.
Zhao Huan then issued an edict, appointing Xie Qian to replace Yao Gu as the deputy envoy of the Hedong system, and appointing Zhi Yanzhi as the official secretary of the Hedong Xuanfu Division, so that the two immediately took over the remnants of the Song army in Yao Gu's hands, and then entered Hedong, and together with Zhang Hao's department, continued to Taiyuan to relieve the siege of Taiyuan City.
At the same time, Zhao Huan appointed Liu Ju, the pacification envoy of Zhendingfu Road, as the deputy envoy of Xuanfu in Hebei, and led 50,000 troops north to Zhongshan Mansion to prevent the cadres from going south from Hebei again.
After Liu Ju received the order, he quickly led 50,000 elite men and horses of Zhending Mansion to the north with Wang Yuan, the head of Zhendingfu Road, and Li Zhen, the ruler of Zhendingfu.
It is precisely because of this that the strongest and most geographically important city of Zhendingfu in Hebei has become an empty city......
……
At the same time as the Zhao and Song Dynasty dispatched troops, the Daqian Dynasty also changed generals here in Hedong.
- No one knows what Li Cun thinks, and he actually transferred Wu Lan from the south to replace Yue Fei.
Changing generals in battle has always been a taboo for soldiers.
Moreover, Yue Fei fought in the battle of Hedong, not only did he have no problems at all, but also defeated the two generals of the Zhao Song Dynasty and Yao Gu in a row, and defeated the hundreds of thousands of troops of the Zhao and Song Dynasty, and the fight was not ordinarily beautiful.
But even so, Li Cun still transferred Wu Lan to replace Yue Fei.
No one can understand what Li Youxing is thinking?
It's not that no one doubts that Li Cun is unloading the mill and killing donkeys, or is afraid of Yue Fei's military exploits, or prefers Wu Lan, who has guarded the south for Li Cun for several years, or something.
But unloading and killing donkeys is not Li Cun's style at all - all along, one of the reasons why Li Cun is admired is that Li Cun must be rewarded for his merits, and even Guo Yaoshi, the three-surnamed domestic slave, was immortalized because of his many military exploits.
As for the fear of Yue Fei's exploits, this is even more impossible.
Yue Fei's achievements this time are not small, but they are far from the point where they are high and shocking.
The key is what kind of person Li Cun is, he fought from the south to the north, without a defeat, and established the emperor of the first empire in the world in a few years, Yue Fei not to mention this military exploit, even if he made ten or a hundred times the military exploits, he could not shock Li Cun.
Can't figure it out.
Don't understand.
Yue Fei was even more angry, and directly gave Li Cun a recital, asking to go home and worry about his father Yue and Ding.
- Because he went to live in Ezhou, which has a pleasant climate, Yue He lived two years longer than in history, but he still died the year before last, according to the etiquette of this era, Yue Fei should go home for three years, but, in view of the tense military situation at that time, Li Cun issued an edict to let Yue Fei continue to control the Long Xiang army, and now, Yue Fei proposed to go home for Yue and Ding Worry, which is actually reasonable.
After Li Cun saw Yue Fei's recital, he directly asked the chamberlain to pass on an edict to Yue Fei: "Get out of Yanjing." ”
After Yue Fei listened to Li Cun's words, he was angry and aggrieved, but he did not dare to disobey Li Cun's orders, so he could only hand over all the military forces in Hedong to Wu Lan who hurriedly came from Yingtianfu as soon as possible, and then returned to Yanjing with his own soldiers.
As soon as Yue Fei arrived in Yanjing with his front foot, Liu Xuan came to him with his back foot and asked Yue Fei to enter the palace immediately.
Yue Fei didn't dare to delay, and hurriedly followed Liu Xuan into the palace.
In front of the Yaochi Palace, Yue Fei met Li Gang, who was appointed by Li Cun as the envoy of Yanyun Xuanfu before Li Cun led his army south last year.
Li Gang smiled kindly at Yue Fei, and then strode out of the palace.
Yue Fei didn't know if it was his own delusion, Li Gang's smile just now seemed to have a deep meaning.
For Li Gang, whether in terms of ability or character, there is nothing that Yue Fei and the others of the Daqian Dynasty do not admire.
In Li Cun's words: "Li Boji has the talent of a prime minister." ”
Actually-
The northern part of the Great Qian Dynasty did not stop.
The Jin people are cunning and shrewd, they know very well that if they don't take advantage of the time when the Daqian Dynasty is doing the Song Dynasty, they will help the Zhao Song Dynasty, and when Li Cun turns the Zhao Song Dynasty into a hand, they will definitely turn around and do the gold.
Therefore, Wanyan Wu begged to send Wanyan Zonghan and Wanyan Zongwang to send a garrison in Swallow City to keep an eye on Yundi, and a garrison to Bei'anzhou, looking for an opportunity to go south from the Liaoning West Corridor or from Yanjing.
In addition, the various tribes on the grassland did not stop, they always wanted to go south to cross the Great Wall to fight the grass valley, and sometimes, they dared to go south with three or five thousand men and horses to attack the pass of the Daqian Dynasty.
In other words, the war of the Daqian Dynasty against the Zhao and Song Dynasty was actually done under a lot of pressure.
But Li Cun did not flinch because of this, he dared to appoint Li Gang, a minister of Zhao and Song, as the envoy of Yanyun Xuanfu, and then handed over the north of the Daqian Dynasty to Li Gang with great confidence, and let Li Gang lead Wu Jue, Su Dong and other cadres to stick to the north of the Daqian Dynasty, while he himself led the army south to attack the Song Dynasty.
Li Gang did not live up to Li Cun's trust in him, in the past two years, no Hu people have been able to cross the Great Wall and go south to fight the grass valley, and the Yanyun area, whether it is political or economic, has developed very well, even if Li Cun does not need to transport grain from the south, the Yanyun area will no longer have the turmoil and great hunger like the Liao and Song dynasties, and Yanyun, an area where the lake and Han live together, has also been completely stabilized.
Facts have proved that Li Gang is indeed a prime minister.
However, many people remember that when Li Gang was in the Zhao and Song Dynasty, he was only a minor official who supervised the taxation of Shaxian County, Jianzhou, Nannan, and it was here that Li Cun became a feudal official.
Therefore, in terms of employing people, Li Cun has always been respected.
But it was precisely because of this that Yue Fei couldn't figure it out, why did Li Cun transfer him back in such a good situation?
"Could it be that the official family suspects me of disloyalty?!"
Thinking of this possibility, Yue Fei's heart was even more aggrieved!
- He is not a general who followed Li Cun halfway like Wu Lan and them, he has followed Li Cun since his debut, he is a general promoted by Li Cun from the end of the micro little by little, it can be said that if Li Cun hadn't given him opportunities again and again, he would not have become the only general in the current Daqian Dynasty, so he was too late to be grateful to Li Cun, how could he be disloyal to Li Cun?
With such grievances and anger, Yue Fei followed Liu Xuan into the Yaochi Palace.
As soon as he came in, Yue Fei saw Li Cun lying on a dragon couch in the middle of the hall, and dozens of warblers and Yanyan around Li Cun were surrounding Li Cun to loosen Li Cun's bones, and Li Cun was playing with them happily in the east and west.
Seeing this, Yue Fei, who was very bad at women, couldn't help frowning.
However, Yue Fei also knew that their majesty had no other problems, that is, they couldn't do without women.
In this regard, not only Yue Fei was helpless, but Lu Jiang, Li Gang and others could only rely on Li Cun's temperament.
Fortunately, although Li Cun likes women, he has never made a mistake because of women.
Therefore, slowly, no one cares about Li Cun's personal hobby.
Yue Fei came to Li Cun in a proper manner and bowed: "Minister Yue Fei, meet Your Majesty." ”
Li Cun didn't raise his head, and said, "I can't figure out why I replaced you?" Angry? Grievance? ”
Yue Fei wanted to deny it, but with his straightforward personality, he couldn't say such hypocritical words, especially in front of Li Cun, whom he respected very much.
In the end, Yue Fei could only say hesitantly: "Minister...... Can't. ”
Li Cun didn't say anything to Yue Fei again, but said casually: "Show it to him." ”
Chen Hoop Bucket, who was drinking tea in the corner, heard the words and showed Yue Fei a very thick pile of rice paper.
Yue Fei didn't pretend to shirk, he was puzzled, so he simply took the pile of rice paper handed to him by Chen Hoop Bucket, and then stood in front of Li Cun and read it seriously......
In this process, Li Cun didn't care that Yue Fei was opposite him, he was there to accept the service of the concubines he had just received, and at the same time flirting with these concubines, so unhappy......

Whisper to everyone to ask for a monthly pass.
