…

After a bloody storm that swept almost every corner of the capital except the imperial palace, the once bustling international metropolis of Shangjing became devastated and dilapidated.

The streets are littered with burnt houses and corpses, as well as ruins and fires that have not yet burned out. The air was filled with the smell of ashes and death. Everywhere you can hear the terrified and miserable cries of Jurchen women and Jurchen children.

These are intertwined to form a bleak picture that feels heavy and oppressive.

The streets that were once full of life are now deserted, with only a few rebel horses that have begun to maintain law and order and fight fires occasionally rush past them.

The river was stained blood-red with blood, and the trees along the river were charred, leaving only black trunks and withered leaves.

Many people who were crazy like demons last night hid in their homes at this time, looking at their own blood-stained hands, listening to the accusations of those Jurchen women who had lost their husbands and Jurchen children who had lost their fathers, and couldn't help but ask themselves what they had done. Their eyes are full of self-blame and confusion, and they don't know if what they are doing is right or wrong. And then let out a cry of remorse and pain......

Standing in Yuwen Huangzhong on the tower of the city gate, looking at all this, he let out a long sigh: "Alas~ The lives of people in troubled times are like mustard, and the ancients did not deceive me!" ”

At the end of the Sui Dynasty, the population of the whole country was nearly 60 million, but by the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, the national population was only about 25 million, and in just over a decade, the total population had dropped by almost 60%.

During the Five Dynasties, the population declined by about 50%.

When the Mongols rose in history, the country's population was less than 20 percent of its original population, and the total number of people had decreased by more than 80 percent.

Such is the cruelty of war.

As a very knowledgeable person, Yuwen Huangzhong knows very well that if he can't beat a Li Cun, the world will definitely have to be in turmoil, and there will definitely be more deaths, the key is that in the process of the rise of the Jurchens, they deserve to fall into such an ending, and they are not worthy of sympathy.

At this time, someone came to report that the rangers of the Golden Vulture had arrived under the city, and the army would be able to arrive at the city in the evening at most.

When Yuwen Huangzhong heard this, he hurriedly notified the soldiers and civilians in the city to prepare to wait for help.

In fact, there is no need for Yuwen Huangzhong to send someone to inform that the news that Jin Wushu will lead the army to return to Shangjing City has already spread, and there is already a panic scene in Shangjing City, and people are panicked, worried, and at a loss.

However, soon, without Yuwen Huangzhong sending people to urge and threaten, the soldiers and civilians in the city immediately actively obeyed the command of the hundreds of civil and military monks, monks, and elders, and carried out preparations for war in an all-round way, repairing the building and turrets, hanging felt curtains, installing artillery mounts, setting up crossbow beds, transporting bricks and stones, applying torches, hanging wood, preparing fire oil, and all the equipment needed for defense.

This is the biggest gain of Yuwen Huangzhong in killing all the Jurchens, that is, they tied everyone in Shangjing to their chariots, so that the people in Shangjing City worked together to wait for help, and also made the people in Shangjing not only dare not give birth to two hearts, but even dare not do not do their best.

- Everyone understands that if they can't hold the capital, let the Jin Wushu lead the Jin army back to the capital, and see them kill all the Jurchens, they will definitely kill them to avenge the Jurchens, so now they are not fighting for others, but for themselves and their families, this is a battle for survival!!

In a short period of time, under the leadership of Yuwen Huang and others, hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians in Shangjing City were quickly formed and began to operate at high speed.

Yuwen Huangzhong is well aware of the heavy responsibility on his shoulders, and he does not dare to slack off in the slightest. He divided the city wall into four defense areas, east, west, north and south, and each defense area sent more than 12,000 people as frontal combat troops, and was also equipped with auxiliary militia teams.

For these four defense areas, Yuwen Huangzhong each arranged a civilian official and a military general to jointly serve as the promotion officer of the defense area, and each arranged a cronie to supervise it.

Each city gate is the focus of defense, and Yuwen Huangzhong has sent safe people to defend the land.

At the same time, Yuwen Huangzhong also quickly gathered more than 40,000 people from the horse army and the infantry army, divided them into five armies, 8,000 people each, and established an organizational system of command, commander, general, and team general.

Yuwen Huangzhong arranged for the front army to be stationed outside the Tongjin Gate to protect the granary in the city (there were more than 400,000 stone of beans in the warehouse, which would be the most important grain and grass for the cadres who came to reinforce), and the left, right, and middle armies were stationed in the city as a strategic reserve for emergency purposes.

- Lack of manpower, immediately select brave men from the city to replenish them.

As the capital of the Liao and Jin dynasties, Shangjing City is the political, economic and cultural center of Northeast China, and it is also a military center, and its city fortifications are very strong.

There are a total of 14 city gates on all sides, including seven water gates, and each city gate is set up with a round or square urn city to strengthen the protection of the city gate entrance.

There was a war tent on top of the urn city for the defenders to defend and rest.

The outer city wall is equipped with a horse face every sixty or seventy steps, and the horse face protrudes beyond the city wall, which can be cross-fired to protect the wall from enemy damage.

There are warehouses about every 200 meters, which contain a variety of weapons and munitions.

In order to strengthen the defense of the city, a moat was dug around the outer city, and elm and willow trees were planted on both sides of the river, which also constituted an obstacle for the besieging enemy.

Under the leadership of Yuwen Huangzhong, the soldiers and civilians of Shangjing City worked together and soon made use of all the urban defense facilities in Shangjing, making Shangjing City impregnable.

In the evening of this day, Jin Wushu led the cavalry of the Jin army to arrive outside the capital city, they beat the drum and marched strongly, the mighty and mighty, the momentum shook the sky, and the cavalry brigade rushed towards the capital city.

Obviously, the Golden Vulture who had already sent back Duobo Tanma had found out that Shangjing had been occupied by the rebels.

However, the Golden Vulture did not immediately attack the city, but seized a piece of high ground in the northwest of Shangjing City and set up camp there.

At this time, all the gates in the capital had been closed, martial law was imposed in the whole city, and the officers and soldiers defending the city were waiting for them in their respective positions.

Yuwen Huangzhong judged that the Jin army would definitely attack at night, and he did not dare to slack off, and he and Han Qi had been patrolling the various defense areas of the city wall first.

Really!

That night, the Jin army began to attack the city.

They attacked Xuanzemen first.

Carrying torches, they rode dozens of large boats down the river into the moat and descended one after another.

Yuwen Huangzhong personally came to the scene to command the battle, and he deployed all the 2,000 soldiers who dared to die recruited under the abduction city, and let the fierce general Han Chang command.

When the enemy ship approached, Han Chang led the defenders to hook the ship with a long hook and pull it to the shore.

At the same time, Yuwen Huangzhong ordered the soldiers and civilians defending the city to set up a wooden fence in the middle of the river, and arranged for people to throw the rolling wood thunder stones into the river to block the advance of enemy ships.

After a simple trial between the two sides, Jin Wushu knew that Shangjing was very well prepared, and he wanted to recapture Shangjing City casually by scaring him, rescue the royal family and clan of Wanyan Kang and Jin Guo, take back their families, and then flee, but there was no door.

Jin Wushu looked up to the sky and sighed!

Sigh, the golden vulture can only be called gold and retreat.

In this battle, the defenders won a complete victory, and more than 100 Jin troops were captured from the boats in the water.

The first attack of the Jin army was repulsed, and the confidence of the defenders was greatly increased.

Until dawn, the Jin army did not dare to attack the capital again.

And in the morning, from the distant horizon, a group of black cavalry rushed in, and the black battle flag they were fighting against fluttered in the wind.

The Daqian Dynasty is the Shuide Dynasty, which is still black.

Reinforcements are coming!!

Seeing this, an incomparably enthusiastic cheer broke out in Shangjing City, and many people left tears of excitement on their faces.

They were saved!

Next, the cadres gathered more and more, and after noon, they gathered almost 60,000 or 70,000 horses, not much less than the Jin army led by Jin Wushu, who camped in the northeast of Shangjing City and confronted the Jin army-for-tat.

Seeing this, Yuwen Huangzhong hurriedly sent someone out of the city to report the situation in the capital to Han Shizhong, the commander of the support army.

Han Shizhong, who also sent a lot of sentinels to inquire about the news and met the people sent by Yuwen Huangzhong to ask Yue Fei for help, actually knew about the changes that had happened in Shangjing City for a long time, and knew that Shangjing City basically belonged to the Daqian Dynasty.

Han Shizhong immediately expressed his position, telling the people in the capital to rest assured that tomorrow he would send troops to defeat the remnants of Jin Wushu's defeated generals and liberate the capital.

In order to appease the soldiers and civilians living in the upper capital, Han Shizhong also said that they were only the front army, and there were millions of troops behind them who were advancing to the upper capital under the leadership of Yue Fei and others, and the golden vultures had no chance of winning at all.

After receiving these news, the soldiers and civilians in Shangjing City were relieved.

However, not waiting for the next day, Jin Wushu, who was not willing to be driven away like this, took advantage of the fact that Han Shizhong's troops were not firmly established and the heavy weapons had not yet arrived, and launched an attack on Han Shizhong's troops, wanting to defeat Han Shizhong's troops in one fell swoop, deter the soldiers and civilians in Shangjing, and then blackmail Yan Yan and other royal families and clans of the Jin Kingdom and their families.

Who would have thought, Han Shizhong had long been guarding against the hand of the Jin Vultures, and when the Jin army was coming, Han Shizhong decisively ordered a formation to engage the Jin army who came to attack him, and Cheng Min, Xie Yuan, Wang Sheng, Hu Yantong, Xu Shi'an and other generals led their troops to engage the Jin army.

In order to rescue their families, the Jin people fought very fiercely, and once surrounded the generals of the cadres under the lonely mountain, and the fierce general Cheng Min was even shot and almost fell off his horse.

When the victory or defeat was undecided, Han Shizhong personally led reinforcements to come to the battle in time to stabilize the battle line.

The two sides fought from dark to dawn, and there was still no winner.

At ten o'clock in the morning, Yuwen Huangzhong sent Gao Hailong and Han Chang to lead the Bohai Navy and the Liaodong Han'er Army out of the city to reinforce Han Shizhong's cadres and defeat the Jin army.

Seeing this, Jin Wushu knew that they would not have a chance to rescue Wan Yan Kang, the royal family and clan of the Jin Kingdom, and their families, so he could only order a retreat to the west.

Han Shizhong did not pursue again.

These remnants of the defeated army, like rootless duckweed, are no longer to worry, maybe they don't need to fight, they themselves will collapse in internal fighting, and the top priority is to take over the capital and stabilize the huge results that will be obtained.

Subsequently, Yuwen Huang and others opened the city gate and let Han Shizhong's cadres enter the capital.

Seeing this, Han Shizhong boldly led only 3,000 pro-troops into the city, and resettled the rest of the cadres and troops outside the city, so as not to cause panic among the soldiers and civilians in Shangjing.

Han Shizhong did the right thing, and the soldiers and civilians in Shangjing City were really relieved when they saw this.

Subsequently, under the mediation of Yuwen Huangzhong, all the Jin troops in Shangjing City went out of the city, handed over the city defense of Shangjing City to Han Shizhong's pro-army, and accepted Han Shizhong's reorganization.

The two sides peacefully completed the handover of Shangjing.

After the handover, Han Shizhong discussed with Yuwen Huangzhong, Han Qixian and others, and decided to quickly escort Wanyan Zonggan, Wanyan Kang father and son, all the Jin royal family and clans, and all the Jurchen nobles to Vladivostok, and then send them back to Nanjing Yingtianfu of the Daqian Dynasty by sea to Li Cun.

This is not only a great achievement, but also a hot potato sent away.

- Without these people, the Golden Vulture should not have come to attack the capital again.

Everyone expressed their support, including Yue Fei in the rear.

In this way, after the second batch of cadres arrived in Shangjing, Han Shizhong immediately sent Wang Sheng to lead 30,000 horses to escort Wanyan Zonggan, Wanyan and his sons, all the royal families and clans of the Jin Kingdom, and all the Jurchen nobles to Vladivostok.

Also sent away were the first batch of gold, silver and jewelry of the Jin Kingdom that were counted by the officials of the household department of the Daqian Dynasty who arrived in Shangjing with the Second Cadre Army......

Half a month later, more than 15,000 royal families and clans of the Jin Kingdom, as well as Jurchen nobles, including Wan Yan Kang, were escorted to Jinling City.

In history, when the Jin Kingdom destroyed the Northern Song Dynasty, it captured Zhao Ji, Zhao Huan, as well as thousands of women such as the Queen Mother, the Empress, the Imperial Concubine, the Imperial Concubine, the Imperial Concubine, and the Imperial Concubine.

These women, whether they were princesses or princesses, were all wantonly raped by the Jin soldiers, and more than half of them were ravaged to death.

Then Zhao Ji, Zhao Huan, Empress Dowager Zheng, and Zhu Lian also had to expose their upper bodies and kneel down in the streets in the eyes and cheers of countless people of Jinguo.

The scene was more than miserable!

When the Jin State destroyed the Liao Dynasty, Yelu Yanxi was chased to the head of the rat, and finally ran into the desert, an emperor was almost starved to death in the desert, and could only swallow ice and snow to quench his hunger and thirst, and finally it was difficult to escape the end of being killed as a prisoner.

And after the Jin people killed Yelu Yanxi, they also trampled him into a puddle of flesh, leaving Yelu Yanxi's bones gone.

Similarly, the Jin soldiers wantonly raped the daughters of the royal family and the daughters of the clan of the Liao State, and more than half of them were ravaged to death, and those who did not die were also treated as playthings or goods by them.

All of the above is enough to see the ferocity and tyranny of the Jin Kingdom when it destroyed other countries.

Therefore, for all this that happened in the capital city, Li Cun did not have any psychological burden at all, this was the retribution that the Jurchens deserved.

The key is that when Li Cun's current status comes, it is impossible to think about just the trivial matter of revenge, he still has to consider the consequences.

Li Cunke has not forgotten that in history, the Jurchens will make a comeback.

And now, a large number of things similar to those in Shangjing have been discovered, and the Jurchens, whose ancestors are about to be killed, will completely withdraw from the stage of history, and there is no need to worry.

Of course, you can also understand that although Li Cun did not give the order to massacre the Jurchens, to a certain extent, Li Cun must have connived at the Khitans to seek revenge on the Jurchens.

This can only be said that the cycle of heavenly principles, retribution is unpleasant, and if you come out to mix, you will have to pay it back sooner or later.

Li Cun did not humiliate the royal family and clan of the Jin State as the Jin people humiliated the royal family and clan of the Zhao and Song Dynasty in history, but did not even see Wanyan Zonggan and Wanyan Kang's father and son, so he simply ordered that all the men of the royal family and clan (including the Jurchen nobles) of the Jin Kingdom below Wanyan Kang entered the City of All Nations and were imprisoned for life, and the women were all entered into their own harem for their own enjoyment......

As of this moment, the Jin Kingdom, which has experienced three generations of emperors for a total of 22 years since the founding of the People's Republic of China, is basically over.

Li Cun ordered to change the Shangjing City Road of the original Jin State (a total of jurisdiction: a mansion, that is, Huining Mansion; Three states, namely Zhaozhou, Longzhou, and Xinzhou; Five roads, namely Puhe Road, Helazy Road, Xipin Road, Suguan Road, Huli Road; Six counties, namely Huining County, Qujiang County, Yichun County, Shixing County, Lishe County, and Wuchang County. Probably the later Heilongjiang and part of Jilin and the entire Far East) for the Beining Road, changed the capital to the city of Beining, as the capital of the Beining Road, Ren Yuwen Huangzhong as the prefect of Beining, Han Qi first for the general judgment of Beining, and then sent Gao Qingyi to serve as the governor of Beining, strictly ordered the three to restore the stability of the Beining Road as soon as possible, cooperate with the railway, the Ministry of Communications, and the Ministry of Households to establish a railway that is fully linked to the Daqian Dynasty, and cooperate with the Ministry of Agriculture and the Ministry of Households to open up land and cultivate on the black soil......

- This is only temporary, in the future Li Cun will definitely divide the Bac Ninh Road, after all, there are more than 6 million square kilometers in the Far East alone.

At the same time, Li Cun sent Sun Sanyu to reorganize and teach all the surrendered troops in the northeast (including the Khitan army that had surrendered to the Daqian Dynasty before, and also the Jin army that later surrendered to the Daqian Dynasty), and dispersed them into various military regions of the Daqian Dynasty, and appointed Li Yanxian as the commander of the Beining Military Region and Yao Youzhong as the capital supervisor of the Beining Military Region, so that the three of them could sweep away all the resistance forces on the Beining Road as soon as possible and eliminate the war in the northeast......

Li Cun also gave orders to Yue Fei, Han Shizhong, and Li Yanxian, asking them to eliminate the remnants of the Jin Kingdom such as Jin Wushu and Wan Yanchang as soon as possible.

Finally, Li Cun sent a large number of envoys from the Great Qian Dynasty, such as Ma Zhi, Ma Kuo, and Wang Lun, to send envoys to the Western Xia, Tubo, Mengwu, Kumoxi, Yuju, Murowei, Tieli, Wuja, Wugu, Dilie, Zhubu, Dangxiang, Tuyuhun, Hezhuo Xiaofan, Ganzhou Uighurs, Gaochang Uighurs, and more than 50 tribes of the Divination (mainly including the Heichezi, Chaza, Wuguza, Dalidi, Pasimu, Poli, Paisa, Pulu, Yejian, Duying, and the Tatar tribe north of Yinshan). There are also the six major tribes that have been separated from the Divination (the Ministry of Reform and Reform, the Department of Governing the Garsi, the Ministry of Menggu, the Ministry of Meili, and the Department of Sticky Bagge), as well as the Sukuna Department in the eastern part of Wugu Mountain, and other countries, telling them: Those who follow me prosper, and those who oppose me perish......
