Huanglong Mansion.

"This has to be a monument!"

Wang Yue stood on the wasteland behind the snow, looking at the breached city in front of him and sighed.

After breaking through Tongzhou, the remaining road was unimpeded, the Han people in Xinzhou surrendered directly, and the Huanglongfu side because of the arrival of a Jurchen army, the officials in the city chose to be loyal to our Dajin, since Wang Yue also met their requirements, and he usually tried his best to meet such requirements.

The goal of smashing the Yellow Dragon was so easily successful.

It's not that hard.

The earthen city standing on the snowfield was just a misunderstanding by Yue Wumu.

The cellar of the great painter is not here in the city of the Five Kingdoms.

It was originally the main city of the Bohai people, and later became a military fortress for the Khitans to suppress the Jurchens, but at this time it was only a small city with a total population of just over 1,000 households. However, it is still worth a monument here, even if it is just to smash the word Yellow Dragon, but what the monument is made of needs to be considered, after all, he does not have much time.

Le Shi Yanran needs to find a mountain rock or something like this, and the engraving can withstand thousands of years of weathering, but this ghost place can't even see a mountain, it's a completely large plain, at most it's a bit of a mound or something.

This is the Songnen Plain!

It was a bit difficult to get a big rock from somewhere else, but that would be beyond his current time limit.

"Maybe you can learn from horse aid."

Ma Kuo said.

"You mean to make a big bronze pillar?

We are not short of copper, and there are some copper coins seized, but after we leave, it is not the last cheap Jurchen, they smashed the copper pillar and melted it or took it again to mint money. ”

Wang Yue said.

"You can use the worst iron."

Ma Kuo said.

"Where do you find so much iron in this area?"

Wang Yue said.

The iron pillar is a good idea, get a few furnaces, smelt the worst quality iron, which is basically equivalent to half a slag, and then pour it directly into a big pit, regardless of the shape, anyway, pile it tens of thousands of catties of slag iron. Then take your own treasure axe and engrave the words, carve them deeper, and the handwriting is larger than the cliff stone carving, or don't simply engrave the words, and directly use these slag iron piles up a rough shape......

This is really good!

Although iron will rust, in fact, such an oversized iron lump will not rust deeply.

It's okay to hold on for at least a few hundred years.

The Yellow River Iron Ox can survive in the water for so many years!

But here's the problem......

Where can I find so much iron?

There's no iron ore in this area, so you can't melt everyone's weapons and armor, right?

"Don't you know that the Jurchen Huining is an iron smelter?"

Ma Kuo said with a smile.

"Uh, Jurchen iron smelting?"

Wang Yue was stunned.

"Of course, otherwise what do you think Akuda is going to fight with the Khitans?

He not only smelted iron there, but also smelted iron in large quantities, and even sold it to the Khitans, and the Jurchen armor and weapons were all excellent, most of which were made by themselves.

Don't think they don't understand anything, these savages in the eyes of others know everything, they can hunt on horses, they can support boats on ships, they can farm, although they can only grow weeds, they can still use barnyard to make wine, and they can also smelt iron, although the means are not very clever, but because they are willing to work hard, they can really forge armor that is more sophisticated than what our court has made in the past.

Huining has iron ore, and it's all excellent.

We won't get much gold or silver.

Their gold and silver are all parted, the Jurchen is different from us, there is no real court, I didn't even have a palace when I went, even Ah Guta is also living in their kind of big tent with a fire kang inside, it is said that in recent years they have also begun to repair the palace room, but the reality is still very crude.

Hoeryong is not a big city either.

In the past, it was a military state set up by the Khitan to pacify the Nuzhen.

But it's just a tiny earthen city.

The gold and silver plundered by the Jurchens could not be stored there, so the chiefs of their tribes were divided, and those who had common use would only be hidden in the mountains.

Next to Hoi Nyeong is the mountainous area.

It's just that I haven't said it, after all, we have to coax those soldiers with this, but we can't steal much gold and silver from Huining, and they can escape to the mountains and forests at any time, so it's hard for us to even catch people.

At that time, it was not very easy for these soldiers to come back with iron ore, as well as the iron they smelted, tens of thousands of horses, and hundreds of thousands of catties of iron? Here there are people left to repair the furnace, just build it on the city wall, and tear down the houses inside, enough to use it as fuel, let's come back with iron and throw it into these furnaces to burn it, and dig a big hole in the city wall, and finally pour the molten iron directly into it.

Hundreds of thousands of catties of iron lumps, the Jurchens can't smash them if they want to, and they can't move them if they want to, at most they just bury them.

But in the future, let's destroy the Jurchens and pick them out again. ”

Ma Kuo said obviously excitedly.

"Will you repair the iron furnace?"

Wang Yue said.

"I won't, but there are tens of thousands of people here, there will always be a few people who will, such as the Liaoyang area, which is the official metallurgy of the Liao State second only to Yanshan Mansion, our Liaoyang, Tiezhou There are no soldiers?"

Ma Kuo said

Well, this one will definitely have.

In fact, it only took six days for Wang Yue to get here from Shenzhou, and he could still squeeze out a few days to work on a big project here, and the iron smelting furnace is not a modern large-scale blast furnace that takes a long time to build.

There is also fuel that can be demolished by a surrounding city.

But what to cast?

It is necessary to forge something to suppress all evil spirits, and use this to suppress this land, and the divine beasts or something are definitely not powerful enough......

Well, Wang Yue knew what he should have minted.

"King, the Jurchen envoy has arrived!"

Dou Cheng suddenly ran to report.

"Emissary?"

Wang Yue was stunned for a moment.

But then he came to his senses, this was Wu Qimai sent someone to sue for peace, after all, they were less than four hundred miles away from Huining at this time, and there was no obstacle in front of them except for Xiangzhou, which was completely ignored. Originally, there were still Songhua River and Lalin River blocking it, but at this time it has been completely frozen, and you can directly pass through it on horseback, and these two rivers are completely useless. Next is the Songnen Great Plain, which is less than four hundred miles, just let go of the horses and run, Huining has no real city wall at this time, it is just a simple earthen fence, and it is impossible to block their attack.

Wu Qimai has no reinforcements, and if he fights again, he can only put the old and weak women and children on top.

Summing is inevitable.

"Bring it here!"

Wang Yue said.

Dou Cheng quickly brought the Jurchen envoy.

"Zhang Hao? I seem to have heard the name. ”

Wang Yue looked at the envoy and said.

This is a young literati, who looks quite personable, quite elegant and handsome.

"The king, his family is from Liaoyang, the last time the king beheaded Luguan, his father was torn apart, and the king also dedicated his mother to the official family, no, it was dedicated to the emperor."

Dou Cheng reminded him.

Zhang Hao lowered his head, and he could clearly see that his body was shaking.

"Ah, I remembered, this is really in response to that sentence, a grain of ash of the times, falling on the head of a person, is a mountain, I regret your personal tragedy, but this is the fault of the times, who let us all be born in such a chaotic year? Ling Zun was torn apart by the car, and it is just a microcosm of this era, there are too many such things in this dog's day, since Ah Gu started the army, how many people in Liaodong have been ruined, although the car crack died more miserably, but compared to those who died in the chaos of the army, there is no difference.

Alas, prosperity, the people suffer, death, the people suffer!

But fortunately, Lingtang finally got her happiness, after all, it is also her blessing to be able to serve the emperor, which can be regarded as worry-free in the second half of her life, and you are also half of the son of my Emperor Tai Song!

You're half a Song person! ”

Wang Yuexu said babblingly.

Zhang Hao took a deep breath......

"The king laughed, how dare you do this!"

He regained the demeanor of a Confucian scholar and said with a smile.

"It's not a big deal, the Emperor Taishang is also a very good person, you will know when you go to the Great Song Dynasty to meet him, if Ling Tang really gets his favor, your benefits are indispensable. Let's not mention this for the time being, after all, you are still in the Jin Kingdom now, and Song Jin is still at war, and when Song Jin returns to friendship in the future, then what did Wu Qimai let you do? Don't worry, just for the emperor, I won't embarrass you, what can you say directly. ”

Wang Yue said.

"Your Majesty took the first emperor as a traitorous minister to bewitch him, and rashly destroyed the alliance to invade the Southern Dynasty, causing the Song and Jin brothers to fight, and the result was killed on the battlefield, which is also enough to warn our country, and now Your Majesty also deeply regrets this move, so I sent a certain to rebuild the good of Song and Jin. Dajin is willing to return to the Great Song Dynasty in accordance with the covenant with the land of the original Youyun Sixteen Prefectures, and the Song and Jin Dynasty will be bounded by Yuguan, which will be a brotherly state for this generation, and will compensate for the losses caused by the previous emperor's southward movement to the Southern Dynasty with 500,000 taels of silver. ”

Zhang Hao hurriedly said.

"Yes, I don't have any opinions, as far as I'm concerned, I really want to see Song Jin restore peace, but I'm a war, and I have no right to intervene in this kind of diplomatic affairs, these have to be decided by the imperial court, so I can only play and wait for the official family to make a decision on your peace."

Wang Yue said casually.

It is said that the king of Zhongshan is a loyal minister, and of course this kind of major event must be played by the official family.

"Can the king withdraw his troops first?"

Zhang Hao said with some surprise.

He didn't care about pestering that peace, and besides, in fact, it was indeed them who sued for peace, so it's a shame to be ashamed, the key is to coax this demon-like man first.

"Well, you must know that we are still at war before the court makes a decision, and since it is a war, of course I will continue to attack, and it is the court's business for you to sue for peace, and it is my business to fight on the front line. So I still have to go to Huining next, as for the peace talks between the two sides, I will go to Huining the same, at that time the imperial court will send an envoy to Huining to continue the talks with Wu Qimai, this will not delay the restoration of friendship between Song and Jin. ”

Wang Yue said with a smile.
