Although the Song Dynasty Huizong Zhao Ji was mediocre and incompetent, he only knew how to be greedy for pleasure, although the traitorous ministers above the court were gathered and tried their best to make money, and the country was corrupt, but after all, there were capable ministers and a backbone army.

The Hedong battlefield was the first to improve.

It was not because of Song Jiang, a-stirring stick, that he led his troops to join the battle and change the direction. In fact, the effect was minimal, but it was beaten back one after another.

Tian Hu, the king of grass, led the army with a rainbow momentum, and continued to attack the city and plunder the land. It was only after occupying the land of the six states that he met his opponent and ran into the Western army that had been reinforced. suffered several defeats in succession, lost troops and lost territory.

That invincible spirit was resisted, and he had to face up to the tens of thousands of Western troops. At present, it has turned from offensive to defensive, confronting more than 100,000 imperial court troops. Under the leadership of the brave and resourceful Fang Xuedu, the two sides won and lost each other.

But no one in the Huaixi battlefield could contain it.

Emperor Wang Qing of Chu seemed to be open, and he could easily capture the city wherever he passed. It occupies the land of seven states, and it is not far from the eighty-seven counties of eight states in the original trajectory. There are 300,000 troops under his command, and they will gather the stars.

It was only at the suggestion of the number one military commander Li Zhu that the offensive was stopped and he recuperated. One is to train the army, and the other is to eliminate internal hidden dangers. Just because the imperial court has once again sent 50,000 troops from the Western Army to fight Wang Qing.

The leading general is the famous general Wu Jue.

Chao Gai didn't know much about Wu Jue, he only knew that he was in the army in his early years, fought against Western Xia, and was a famous general who resisted Jin, and paid attention to his opponent as much as possible. Before the opponent arrives on the battlefield, train the soldiers and be ready for battle.

As for the Jiangnan battlefield! Fang La bought more than a dozen catapults from Jeju at a high price, and after paying heavy casualties, he successfully captured Hangzhou, which was easy to defend and difficult to attack. With more than 100,000 soldiers, they fought fiercely with the imperial army.

After 100,000 elite western troops reinforced the Hedong and Huaixi battlefields respectively, they took over the command of the imperial army, quickly reorganized the army, and fought against the rebels. Although they were inferior in numbers, they won and lost each other, reversing the decline.

In the Jiangnan battlefield, Wang Yu and Zhao Tan were all from the Western Army, after passing the initial adaptation stage. Familiar with the army, control the initiative, recruit young people for training. Relying on the complete system of the city and the government, the city is held to the city. While calling on the people to help, they also eliminated the spies and fought steadily.

Despite being at a disadvantage, the situation is under control!

However, the imperial army stubbornly held the city and delayed time, which was extremely disadvantageous to the three and a half of the imperial court. They occupy little territory, have shallow foundations, and cannot afford to fight a war of attrition. A resourceful person can see this at a glance.

Of course they don't want to see that!

It's just that the price paid for storming the city is too heavy to accept. Chao Gai saw the opportunity to sell them siege equipment such as ladders and catapults, and sold the equipment he produced or eliminated in batches. As a result, the three rebel armies did not suffer any loss in terms of equipment, and their morale was high.

With his variable, the two sides have collided for several months, winning and losing each other. Until June, when the rice was ripe and the weather was very hot, several soldiers and horses invariably stopped fighting, and the battlefield was rarely calm.

Only the steady stream of people pouring into Jeju seemed endless. The fact is that the population of the Song Dynasty exceeded 100 million, which is beyond imagination. The imperial court deliberately connived and agitated, and people dragged their families and had to go.

Until Chaojiazhuang announced that Jeju would be blockaded and would no longer receive an influx of people. Immediately afterward, tens of thousands of people reclaimed wasteland and dug wild vegetables everywhere. News of the food woes spread like a storm.

This constant influx of people gradually disappeared.

The Northern Song Dynasty court was also afraid, afraid that Chao Gai would not be able to bear it, so he would command a large army and attack the city and plunder the land.

Throughout the summer, food shortages became the main theme in Jeju and even in the whole of Shandong.

The cavalry of the brigade went to the county towns of various states to collect grain and grass, and it should be said that it was more appropriate to say that it was plundering. In addition to not touching the people's rations, they were snatched directly from the government. Or buy food from the rich and powerful from all over the world. They even exchanged weapons and equipment for food from Hedong, Huaixi, and Jiangnan.

The imperial court did not stop all this, but strictly ordered private traders to sell grain, and those who violated the order were even the nine clans. A large number of recruits were sent to set up roadstops to intercept them, and there were no restrictions on the flow of other items into Jeju except food.

In the past few months, the number of people pouring into Jeju has reached seven or eight million, which means millions of more mouths, how much food do you have to consume in a day? Even if Shandong is rich, it is difficult to feed tens of millions of people, and it is for a short time.

Even if you buy grain from the rich and powerful, what can you do with the grain from the three forces? Tens of millions of people are simply a bottomless pit. How much food is not enough to eat, and having land does not change the result.

Shandong Chaogai is not to be worried, at most half a year, without a fight.

This is what Song Huizong and many ministers unanimously believed, and for this reason, he was complacent.

In order to prevent the other dog's dog from jumping over the wall in a hurry, the grain of each county town was concentrated in the prefecture. He also dispatched 20,000 Western troops and 10,000 forbidden troops in the imperial city, a total of 30,000 elites, and led 100,000 recruits who had been trained for several months to be stationed in various prefectures.

Completely block the possibility of grabbing food nearby.

It doesn't take a single soldier to solve Chao Gai, and then there are the other three big guys.

Shandong Chao cover is finished!

Dragged down by fame, it is estimated that it will not survive this winter.

Tianhu in Hedong, Wang Qing in Huaixi, and La, South of Jiangxi all have this view. Understand that when the heat is over, it will be a big battle where you die or I live. The tripartite forces took advantage of this opportunity to form an alliance and train their armies.

But no one could have imagined!

Chaojiazhuang's lack of food is just an illusion, a misleading behavior to the outside world. In fact, he devoted all his energy to the Goryeo battlefield. Not only were recruited recruits sent in turn, but they were also successively put into regular divisions.

Although the Goryeo Kingdom was not strong and its territory was small, it imitated the Tang Dynasty and the Great Song Dynasty everywhere. Most of the place names and rivers in the country are borrowed from the name. The state is still the same system as the Tang Dynasty, and there is no ban on slaves and maids.

The Chao family army purchased slaves and maids to restore civilian status and trained a group of daredevils. The Furong army sent from the battlefield of the Wa Kingdom was 100,000 people. Assist the Gong clan royal family in the former dynasty to attack the city and occupy more and more territory. At most, there are three or two months left to be able to hit the capital.

Frightened, the Goryeo royal family urgently called for the border troops to come to the rescue.

It's just that the waters around Goryeo are blocked, and no one knows!

The irony is that Zhao Ji and the traitors of Song Huizong took it for granted, imagining Chao Gai as mentally retarded and unable to see the consequences of the influx of the people. And for the sake of reputation, they are unwilling to abandon these people and go down the road of self-destruction.

In the blink of an eye, July is over, and the scorching summer heat has passed.

The imperial court almost emptied the hundreds of thousands of troops recruited by the treasury and trained hard for months. Except for the 100,000 troops around Jeju, all the others were put into battle.

However, as if agreed, they did not wait for the arrival of imperial reinforcements. Hedong Tianhu, Huaixi Wang Qing, Jiangnan La, at the same time, divided the army into multiple ways to attack the city and plunder the land. The advent of wheeled folding ladders and catapults made the imperial court suffer.

It can also be said that I was caught off guard!

In the Hedong battlefield, Tian Hu, who was the first to ascend the throne and claim the emperor, led the army to conquer more than ten counties in Jinning and Zezhou, and strangled tens of thousands of imperial troops, including more than 10,000 western troops.

When the imperial court was losing and retreating, Cao De, a famous general of the Western Army, led his own soldiers to the battlefield. The command team collided violently with Tian Hu's army. Whether it is command and dispatch or control of the battle situation, he is far superior to ordinary generals, although his troops are not as good as Tian Hu, he fights with the other side well. After 100,000 new recruits arrived for reinforcements, the situation was reversed and the defense turned into an offensive.

The situation on the Huaixi battlefield was similar, Wang Qing's army of more than 300,000 was banned after special training. Relying on siege weapons, it occupied the entire territory of Wanzhou and Xijing in a short time, and the territory was much larger than in the original trajectory.

Compared with Tian Hu, who relied on breaking the city to strangle the Song army, relying on Teng Hu, the elite under the command of the Teng Hu brothers, relying on the strength of the people, and accurate intelligence support and headquarters combat command. Many times with the imperial army in the field. Bravely defeated the imperial army many times, and wiped out nearly 20,000 Western troops.

However, the famous general Wu Jue really did it, flexibly changed his tactics, no longer limited to defending the city, nor colliding with these armies, wandering around in the case of inferior troops, going around to the rear to attack Wang Qing's main force, and beating Duan 2, Duan 5, Gong Zheng and the rest of the brothers were defeated and retreated, and the troops were defeated.

For this reason, Teng Ji, Teng Ji, Li Xiong and other generals were busy rescuing and running around. After the arrival of the 100,000 troops of the imperial court, they moved back to decline little by little.

On the battlefield in the south of the Yangtze River, Fang La planned for the longest time and had the most rigorous internal organization. The army is not numerous, all of them are elite, and the generals are also very strong. Relying on siege weapons such as catapults, they launched onslaught in many directions.

It has successively occupied many counties such as Xuanzhou and Runzhou, and has a larger territory and strategic maneuver space. I wanted to go all out and capture the rich Jiangzhou. However, the situation took a sharp turn after the arrival of 100,000 reinforcements from the imperial court.

The two sides are fighting one after another!

The fighting on the three battlefields was fierce, consuming the forces of all sides like a meat grinder. As the war situation scorched, the emaciated camels of the imperial court were bigger than horses and had a profound heritage.

There is enough food in the granaries everywhere, and there is no shortage of supplies, which are constantly being delivered to the front line. On the other hand, the rebel army had no foundation, and the shortage of grain and grass gradually appeared. Although there are many soldiers, the generals are from mud legs, and the gap is too obvious.

With the passage of time, just two or three months.

The situation on the battlefield was more unfavorable to the states of Jin, Wu, and Chu.

The first to be unable to bear the Hedong Tianhu, the Latin capturer, with more than 500,000 troops, the most serious food consumption, and the harm of reckless military force appeared.

Occupy the territory because there is not enough labor to transport grain and grass.

The imperial army seized the opportunity to spread rumors one after another, and attacked the grain team on a detour. Losing several crucial battles, it is gradually declining, and it is becoming more and more obvious, and the loss of territory is like a river declining.

On the other hand, the imperial army defeated the enemy army, captured the prisoners, and persuaded them to surrender and then regrouped. The size of the army swelled dramatically, the morale was like a rainbow, and the Tianhu who fought was defeated and retreated one after another.

As long as there is a turnaround on one battlefield, it is destined to have a chain reaction. The momentum of Hedong Tianhu was frustrated and he pulled his hips, which made the morale of the imperial army high. The traitors in the court took this opportunity to make a big fuss in the whole army.

The two battlefields of Huaixi and Jiangnan were also affected!
