Chapter 236: War on All Fronts
Zhang Shuye and Liu Tao's angry departure can be regarded as making those civil officials and gentry everywhere completely desperate for Zhao Huan......
Of course, resistance cannot be resisted.
Especially those officials north of the Huai River, all silently accepted the reality, after all, they did not have a Huai River moat in front of them to protect them.
and those south of the Huai River quickly drew a line with Zhao Huan.
Even because of Wang Yue's release of water, more local officials had illusions, thinking that they could really rely on the Huai River to play partial peace, so more local officials joined the banner of the great painter, and when Yang Zaixing's gang began to torture the gentry on the Jingbei Road, the two roads of Jinghu Lake and North Lake, Guangnan East and West Road, and Fujian Road all pledged allegiance to the great painter's family.
Then there are the Sichuan roads.
The great painter took Feng Lu, the doctor of the left counsel who fled south with him, as the envoy of the four roads of Sichuan Gorge, arrived in Kuizhou by boat and was welcomed by the officials of Kuizhou Road, and then began to proclaim all roads in Sichuan, which is actually equivalent to Sichuan also chose to be loyal to the great painter, and the Lizhou Road north of Sichuan and the Jingnan South Road north of Jinghu Lake have begun to join the ranks of denouncing Wang Yue, although they have not openly declared their allegiance to the great painter......
Actually, it's not just these two ways.
At this time, all the magistrates who had not openly pledged their allegiance to the great painter, from the various pacification envoys to the magistrates, were all denouncing Wang Yue like mad dogs.
Zhizhong Mansion Zhan Du was even more upright, resolutely opposing the imperial court's division of Hejian and Zhongshan Prefectures into Yanshan Mansion Road.
He even claimed that if Wang Yue forcibly took over, he would lead the army and people of Zhongshan Mansion to resist to the death, and Cai Jing of Zhihejian Mansion also agreed.
Of course, the main thing is that they know that Wang Yue can't go back for the time being.
There is no danger in playing it.
But this kind of performance is the same as Zhang Shuye's resignation, it is an attitude, an attitude that will not be in the same stream with these traitors and traitors, they are indeed still loyal to the official family, and will not be loyal to the emperor, and they can't reach it if they want to be loyal, but they will definitely not sit back and watch Wang Yue cause trouble in the Great Song Dynasty. Therefore, they all played justice and awe-inspiring to show their attitude, as for how the emperor chooses, it is the emperor's business, they have a clear conscience, and they don't have to worry about their reputation among the righteous people in the world.
As for raising troops to respond to the emperor......
It's ridiculous, everyone is a loyal minister, and now that His Majesty the Emperor is still in the capital, wouldn't it be a betrayal of His Majesty the Emperor to raise troops to respond to the Emperor?
Loyalists wouldn't do such a thing.
And at the same time that these civil officials denounced Wang Yue like mad dogs, Yao Gu and the others happily accepted their Shang Fang sword, only the seed master Dao twisted it, but in the end, under the unanimous urging of his generals, he accepted this thing that was very inconsistent with his values.
And Xin Xingzong took over the appointment of the Longyou Xuanfu envoy with a pie-in-the-sky ecstasy.
He was originally in Hedong, and he followed Zhang Xiaochun before, but after the fall of Master Tong, he has been confused and helpless, and he is in a state of confusion where the dog has lost its owner.
And he can ask for a secret fight with Zhang Xiaochunming, fighting for the actual control of Hedong Road, he is caught in the middle and doesn't know what to do, this time he completely got rid of the predicament, and then he took a group of brothers, and two thousand elite subordinates evacuated Hedong and returned to Longyou. And the compromise of obtaining the sword of Shang Fang completely overwhelmed Zhang Xiaochun and really took over the control of Hedong Road, and then he took advantage of the opportunity of Xiao Hulu and Tianzuo to unite to resist the Jurchens, and quickly transferred all the elites of the Zheyang family from Linfu Feng Sanzhou, together with Han Shizhong's troops to counterattack the Xin Dynasty.
At this time, the main force of the Jurchen guards had been transferred to Yunnei to pursue and kill Tianzuo, and Geng Shouzhong, who stayed behind, was originally a rabble, and under the attack of the Song army on both sides, he had to abandon the Xin Dynasty and flee back to Yanmen Pass.
Fold can seek to recover the Xin Dynasty.
The Hedong defense line of the Great Song Dynasty returned to Yanmen Pass.
Han Shizhong's troops even went out of the pass to pursue, captured Shuozhou and continued to move forward, out of the pass and then swept away the old Liaoning border state occupied by the Jurchens, even captured the population, and turned south to return in Fengzhou.
Although his trip was purely a sweep, and he actually did not control any city outside the pass, it was the first time that the Great Song army went out of Yanmen Pass for more than a hundred years, and the significance was still very unusual, but after Han Shizhong withdrew to Fengzhou, the Jurchen army led by Yinshuke and the Han army led by Guo Qizhong went south from Fengzhou.
Jurchen Toyoshu.
That is, the area of Hohhot.
And Guo Qizhong is said to be Guo Ziyi's successor......
Well, this is a bit ironic, this Guo Ziyi should be genuine after that, his family is the hereditary Tiande Army Festival Envoy in Liao, and after the Jurchen hit, he immediately surrendered to the Jurchen, and then followed the Jurchen to destroy the Northern Song Dynasty, which can be said to be a high degree of hard work.
Yinshuke and Guo Qizhong immediately retaliated and attacked Fengzhou.
Yang Zongmin and Han Shizhong's troops held on, and when Yinshuke's attack was frustrated, Emperor Tianzuo was like an immortal Xiaoqiang with an army of said 20,000 to kill, at this time, not only Yinshuke and Guo Qizhong were in Fengzhou, but the main force of the Jurchen army led by Lou Room had just recovered Shuozhou and Wuzhou, and Zhe Keqiu confronted him at Yanmen Pass, and the Jurchen supreme commander in Xijing was also caught off guard.
Emperor Tianzuo once approached Datong.
Yinshuke and Guo Qizhong had no choice but to give up the attack and return to the rescue.
Fortunately, Tianzuo is Tianzuo after all, and he has no victory in front of the Jurchens, and then he was defeated by Yinshuke.
But Silversmith didn't catch him.
Tianzuo still led his subordinates to wander around the Jiashan area.
This small-scale melee between the Liao, Jin, and Song dynasties officially opened the prelude to a new round of large-scale Jurchen attacks this winter, and then the Jurchen army led by Mu Han arrived in Fengshengzhou and began to attack Juyong Pass head-on, while Zhu Li Butong led the army to attack Gubeikou. In fact, there is also Pulu Tiger attacking the mountain, this time it is the Jurchen attack with almost all their strength, completely crushed by strength, in order to avenge the death of Aguta.
The whole north is in flames.
From Jinzhou to northern Shaanxi, the long front was full of bloody battles.
However......
"Is this problem difficult to solve?"
Wang Yue sat on a recliner in the sun, blowing the sea breeze of the golden autumn season, and said leisurely with a teacup.
"I didn't expect that I would go down this path again!"
Ma Kuo, who was almost identical next to him, sighed.
He was almost cut down by the great painter as a scapegoat before, but fortunately, Tong Taishi rescued him in time, and when Wang Yue led the army north, Tong Taishi intercepted the prisoner car escorting him in Longde Mansion with an expedited 500 li......
Master Tong was actually reluctant to expand Ma Kuo.
Although Xiaoma's official position is not high, he is an extremely rare diplomatic talent in the Song army.
In short, after interception, all that was left was for him to have a fight with the great painter, and the great painter also knew that he was not authentic, so he never ordered him to be executed, that is, he was locked up in the prison of Longde Mansion, and the Longde prefect also knew that he was the scapegoat of the great painter, and he also had the face of Master Tong, so it was not difficult for him to be in prison. After Wang Yue's army returned, in order to show friendship, the great painter finally issued an order to release him, and Ma Kuo immediately returned to his hometown, which was recalled by Wang Yue with a holy decree.
Originally, he actually wanted to avoid this place, but this time Wang Yue really couldn't do without him......
"It's just that I'm a little puzzled, what can you do with these five thousand people?"
He said.
Well, they're in Dengzhou Knife Fish Village at the moment.
Wang Yue wants to go on an expedition across the sea and go to Liaodong to smash Huanglong, this is how Wang Dashuai solves this round of Jurchen attacks, the Jurchens come to fight his lair, then he will go to fight the Jurchens' lair, anyway, the defense of Yanshan Mansion Road will not have any problems at least this year. During his southward journey, Juyong Pass, Gubeikou, and even Wangpingkou, Songting Pass and other places have been fortified, although there is not enough time to build Shanhaiguan-level fortresses, but it is still easy to repair the Guancheng and add defensive equipment in these places.
Even Bauhinia Pass.
These places not only rebuilt the castle, but also equipped a large number of defensive firearms such as counterweight trebuchets, three-eyed guns, and even 10,000 enemies.
Moreover, the forces that may betray him in the current jurisdiction of Yanshan Fulu have also been cleansed.
Except for those who are really attached to him, the others have been cleaned by cleaning up the traitors last time, and those who moved southeast of Liaodong already have their own land and their own women, and because of the last time the Jurchens cleaned Liaoyang, the local Han people, including those brought back from Kaifeng, also have their own land, and they are like gods to him. At this time, the entire Yanshan Mansion Road can already be called a united heart, and in such a situation, the Jurchens can still break through these already extremely difficult passes, and the Jurchens will really be open.
What's more, there are three groups: Xiao Gan, Zhang Ying, and Seed Master.
And Hedong Zhekeqiu also restrained the Lou Chamber, and Tianzuo was also watching from the side, and even the news that he had just gotten that the Western Xia soldiers were originally on the Liaoxia border again, and they were likely to be stimulated by the death of Ah Gu, and they were ready to rescue Tianzuo again.
Originally, they always wanted to accept Tianzuo in history, and the latter was also caught by Lou on the way to Western Xia.
It can be said that because Ah Guda was killed by Wang Yue, coupled with the last defeat of the Jurchens, and the series of events that Liaoyang was broken by Wang Yue, all the forces saw the opportunity to curb the expansion of the Jurchens.
Enemy, it's better to be familiar!
"Five thousand people are enough, I don't need too many people to fight!"
Wang Yue said proudly.
Of course, the main thing is that all the Jurchens can be dispatched, and there is almost no one in Liaodong who can fight.
Ma Kuo was speechless......
This guy really doesn't need too many people to fight, he can do it alone, in fact, it's easier for Wang Yue to go straight to Huanglong by himself, but this kind of thing has no audience, no cheering, this is completely a brocade night walk, so ......
Could it be that this is a cheerleading squad with 5,000 people?
"It's coming!"
Suddenly, he sat up and said.
At the entrance to the harbor protected by the city wall below, new centipede ships are slowly sailing in.
