A group of military leaders looked at Wang Yue meaningfully.

This means that Wang Yue does not eat alone, and it is beneficial for everyone to share.

They all led troops to fight, and they all knew what would happen to the army when they arrived in Jiangnan, saying that the last time Tong Taishi went south, both the Yao family and the Zhejia family participated, and everyone knew how rich Jiangnan was, and everyone knew how much they had caught last time.

It is said that Tong Taishi's southern expedition caused the death of two million people in Zhejiang.

Although it was all pushed to Fang La, in fact, the truth was well known......

Of course, the figure of two million is an exaggeration, but it is true that the literati recorded it at the time.

Although Zhejiang does have a population of two or three million in the Geographical Chronicles of the Song Dynasty, in fact, the records of the Geographical Chronicles of the Song Dynasty are Ding rather than the population, and there was a clear decree in the second Zhao Dynasty to count the population, and until sixty, women are not counted, so there will be a record of two people per household in the history of the Song Dynasty, or even less than two people. But at the same time, in the articles recorded by those officials separately in the local area, in fact, there is a huge gap between the population and the household, and the average household population is no different from that of other dynasties, all of them are more than five, and there are even prefectures with seven households per household.

Taking Ezhou as an example, there are nearly 100,000 households and 240,000 people in Chongning, but the record of Li Xinchuan in the Southern Song Dynasty is very clear that there were 66,000 households and 310,000 people during the Shaoxi period.

The latter is clearly the real mouth.

The former can only be Ding.

Therefore, Zhejiang, which has a population of two or three million in the history of the Song Dynasty, has to be at least multiplied by two to convert the actual population.

At this time, the literati recorded that Tong Taishi's square wax caused a one-third loss of Zhejiang's population.

Why did the officers and soldiers kill innocents indiscriminately?

To grab money, of course.

Yue Wumu's army was a miracle......

It's true.

You can't use the standards of the Yue family army to demand the ancient army, that is too harsh, in fact, it belongs to the miracle of the ancient army, and there are few in the history of thousands of years.

Robbing money and women is the true color of my Great Song Dynasty official army.

Therefore, when the civil war is against the rebellious Diao people, it is as fierce as a tiger, and when the foreign war is against the invading aliens, it instantly becomes a big cowardice.

Here's a big reason for that.

The former is easy to make money.

The latter can't make money when he wins, but when he is defeated or surrendered, then he can really grab money and women, so the officers and soldiers who were originally miserable in combat often have a sudden surge in combat effectiveness after becoming traitors......

It is no different from the Ming Dynasty. ，

And Wang Yue must have gone south to make money, this bastard is the same as my Great Song Dynasty official and military nature, but he is different from others, he does not rob the low-end population, he only robs the elites, other officials and soldiers do not have the ability of him, they can only rob the low-end population, but they have to be careful to serve the elites. Therefore, Wang Yue's shots are often more efficient in robbing, after all, the poor ghosts have no oil and water, and the elites are really rich, and following him also means that the opportunity to make a fortune has arrived.

Wang Yue is inviting them to make a fortune together.

"King Zhongshan, I have received the emperor's favor from my family, and now that the Emperor Taishang has been kidnapped by the traitors, how can the Zhe family sit idly by, just when Zhe Kecun and Yang Zhen are there, let them lead two thousand cavalry with the King of Zhongshan to rescue the Emperor Taishang."

He said in a righteous manner.

Wang Yue nodded with satisfaction.

"In that case, let's let Pingzhong and Youzhong go south with King Zhongshan."

Yao Gu said.

"If the official family agrees, then let Shedi Zhao follow the King of Zhongshan."

Liu Xi said.

Nine of his brothers!

Liu Kuang, Liu Zhao, and Liu Rui all led the troops.

Among them, Liu Rui was originally in the history of Liu Kuang was kicked aside and idle to replace him to lead his subordinates, and Liu Zhao followed Liu Kuang during the Battle of Shunchang.

Then that's all that remains.

"Li Xiaozhong is still in the Flying Fox, the old subordinates were scattered before, and now they are still reorganizing the army, so it's too late to arrive."

Seed Master Dao said.

"This is not right, the festival marshal is favored by the emperor, how can he sit idly by at this time? Didn't Yang Weizhong's department follow the Chang Shengjun behind? Let him lead the army to the south with the King of Zhongshan? ”

Zhe Keqiu said very dissatisfied.

This is actually standing in line, everyone is standing in line with Zhao Huan, you breeders still want to stand aside and watch?

Yao Gu also looked at the Seed Master Dao with complicated eyes.

"Okay!"

Seed Master Dao said.

He did feel a little embarrassed and didn't want to participate.

Everyone said that they were going to rescue the Emperor, but in fact, they were all going to beat the Emperor, and the family was also a great Confucian family, and the two brothers were also promoted by the Emperor, and they were a little awkward to beat the Emperor with these bastards. But now there is no other choice, after his subordinates were broken up by Wang Yue's one million guan, that is, Yang Weizhong was not captured, and those soldiers returned to Xiongzhou after receiving the money, Yang Weizhong then gathered it up and led them to follow Wang Yue far behind in the name of pursuit.

Now stationed in Liyang.

Yang Weizhong is Yang Weizhong, at least he is not a farmer.

In this way, Wang Yue's southward army was gathered, he himself commanded 10,000 cavalry, and the other 10,000 stayed in Kaifeng or continued to watch Zhao Huan, if the Jurchen went south, he didn't have time to rush back, then the 10,000 people would go back quickly, and the four families of the Seed Master Dao would make up the remaining 10,000.

Their meeting completely bypassed Zhao Huan.

Of course, Zhao Huan did know that this was also what he agreed, but these generals got together and held a meeting directly to decide on national affairs, which was still very exaggerated in the Great Song Dynasty. Wang Yue used this way to make these military leaders understand that now that they are really in power, they no longer need to look at the faces of civilian officials, they can make decisions, and this is the beginning, and they will become more and more accustomed to this.

The civil officials who had been riding on their heads were no longer able to do anything about them.

As for the defense of the Jurchens, the same is certain.

Yao Gu returned to Shaanxi, and also took Tongzhi Privy Council affairs to continue to command the armies in Shaanxi, mainly to defend the Western Xia......

The Tangut people also danced happily during this time.

Last year, they once sent troops to support Tianzuo, and even defeated the Jurchen in the first battle, that is, when Wang Yue attacked Yanshan City, at this time, the combat effectiveness of the Western Xia Army was not weak, and the penultimate place in the class of the Great Song Dynasty was still very real, and the commander of the Western Xia Army, Li Liangfu, also felt that the Jurchen was just like that, and then he was so proud that he ran headlong into Wanyan Lou's room.

And then there was no then.

The Tangut people, who were beaten by Lou Mu, never dared to get involved in this war again.

As for Zhe Keqiu's return to Taiyuan, he also took Tongzhi Privy Council, together with Wang Yu there, as well as the Xin family brothers and others to continue to defend the western road, and went north as much as possible to recover the Xin Dynasty, where there were not many Jurchen troops, mainly Geng Shouzhong and his subordinates. It should be no problem for them to be right, it just so happens that Han Shizhong and others are also in Flying Fox, and they should be able to attack from the north and south, after all, this time the identity of Zhe Keqiu is different, and the Zhe family will definitely work hard there.

The front of the Hebei front is still the group left behind by Wang Yue.

In fact, when the Jurchens go south next, they will definitely attack Yanshan Mansion first to take revenge.

So the seed master returned to Xiongzhou.

At that time, he must be responsible for rescuing Yanshan Mansion.

Wang Yue led his subordinates to solve his father for Zhao Huan, and Zhao Huan had to be responsible for protecting his lair, which was an exchange.

If Zhao Huan didn't give him the rescue of Yanshan Mansion, then don't blame Wang Yue for turning his head to support his father in Jiangnan.

Well, that's called a strange thing.

And as long as there is rescue behind, Xiao Puxian and others are enough to withstand the Jurchens.

In the final analysis, Wang Yue's group really can't attack the Jurchens, but the defense is enough.

Moreover, Wang Yue had already transported a lot of grain to Han Qingmin before.

The latter cooperated with Chizhan Hui, and even sent troops to Xingzhongfu, that is, Chaoyang, although they failed to save Yelu Jiejian, who rebelled against the Jurchen, but brought back a large number of Khitan and Xi people from there, as long as Wang Yue's grain transportation would not be interrupted, they should be able to hold Jinzhou. And they held Jinzhou, that is, blocked the Liaoxi Corridor, plus Xiao Gan's barrier, Zhang Ying was safe in Pingzhou, so that when the Jurchens attacked Yanshan, they had to face Zhang Ying's Pingzhou army, the Song army of the southern line, and Xiao Gan's attack in the north, and even if it was possible to ask for a smooth progress there, it would threaten Datong.

That's enough.

So many people can't resist the Jurchen, that's too exaggerated.

In fact, at this time, the Jurchens were still dealing with the internal affairs after Ah Gu's death, and they had to continue to hunt down Emperor Tianzuo and didn't care about anything else.

The latter has not yet been caught.

However, he is no longer able to resist, and is only fleeing for now.

His son Yali, with the support of part of the army, had already run to the Hulunbuir grassland, and Yelu Dashi had not yet gone south, but he had gathered a lot of strength in Zhenzhou, although he was a vassal to Tianzuo, but he did not go south to participate in the counterattack according to Tianzuo's will.

Not even now.

In short, this is the case in the north at present, the original Daliao is left with a group of people who are still breathing, Tianzuo is hiding everywhere, Yali is hiding under the protection of the Great Xing'an Mountains, Yelu Dashi is thinking about the Western Regions, and Han Qingmin is still fantasizing about Tianzuo going back to revive the Great Liao. As for Xiao Gan's family, he is already the emperor of the Great Xi Kingdom, and now Xiao Puxian is a virtuous woman with a group of remnants who are happy in Yanshan Mansion, so she is very attractive there, and from time to time there are fleeing Khitans running to Yanshan Mansion.

But she's going to Khitan there......

Originally, there was not much Khitanization, the Khitan people have been sinicized for more than 400 years, how many Khitans are still there, and now they are just changing their Han surnames.

The main thing is that Yelu is changed to Liu.

It can't be regarded as changing the Han surname, which was originally determined by Yelu Abaoji.

The ancestors have already said that their Han surname is Liu, so they naturally have to listen to the ancestors, so at this time, the three Yelu people in Yanshan Mansion silently accepted the reality for this reason.

As for the Xiao of the descendants, there is no need to change.

Everyone said it themselves, they are the descendants of Lanling Xiao.

Although this is what Abaoji has decreed, who knows that after so long, even many Khitan descendants feel that they are the descendants of Lanling Xiao.

In short, Wang Yue temporarily put aside the disturbances in the north, and then led 20,000 cavalry to embark on a journey to meet the emperor.

And by this time it was already the end of July.

However, it is still the fifth year of Xuanhe, although Zhao Huan has succeeded to the throne and changed to Yuan Jingkang, but this era name will not be officially used until the end of the year.
