Chapter 460 The role of credit

The Jin envoy sent a quick horse to Bianliang to discuss with the State of Song. Li Gang refused to open the city gate. He replied loudly to the Jin envoy: "The situation in the city has been out of control now. The people of Bianliang have discussed it together: I will never admit any peace talks!" The Jin envoy was furious, and his mouth was naturally unclean. He leaned a little. A man stood up from the city and raised a pipe-like object to aim at the Jin envoy. With a thunderbolt, a ball of soil splashed in front of the envoy, and the war horse raised its front hooves in horror. The Jin envoy was shocked. Although he did not know that the other party was a musket, he knew that it was obviously a long-range weapon after a long battle formation!

This ranged weapon is farther away than the chuáng crossbow and has a huge sound and light effect.

Not only that, as he shouted in annoyance on the top of the city, countless gun barrels stood up and aimed in this direction... The Golden Messenger drove his horse away, and a sound of a burst of beans sounded behind him.

In fact, there are not many people on this pair of musketeers, they are just guards from Yuwen Xu.

In fact, in the past few days, Li Gang has completely realized the original history. As soon as the young Qinzong ascended the throne, he insisted on fighting with the impulse of a young man. As soon as he failed, his psychology immediately fell into the sway of self-disappointment and self-denial. He suddenly became warfare and insisted on peace talks. In the end, he completely lost the hearts of the people in Bianliang City. The civil and military officials and the people in the city were full of contempt for the court. Even if the Jin people retreated, the court still did not restore control over the road of Jinglu, so that famous officials such as Li Gang, Zongze and Zhang Shuye could not restore their credit.

〖Real history, the rulers of all dynasties were extremely taboo about this, how could the people who had the right to betray the court? Even if the emperor did not do well, they were still blinded by his ministers. In fact, he was glorious... Therefore, with the efforts of rulers of all dynasties, the last public opinion of the people in Bianliang City was completely blocked. Only some notes of the Song people in the Southern Song Dynasty had a vague hint of clues.

Li Gang, Zongze, Zhang Shuye and others were born in a monarchy society. Although they were disgusted with the actions of the court and made some actions that contradicted the court at all times. Then the facts proved that what they did was right. The court did everything wrong, but they were limited by the education they received since childhood and were unable to abandon the only monarch above their heads. They did not know who they would serve in addition to the emperor. Now, they gave them a new idea: change to an emperor.

Shi Chuan also told them that the emperor was also responsible for his duties, and he had to perform the tasks he should perform. Originally, changing the emperor was not a big deal. There were precedents in the Han and Tang Dynasties. However, the descendants of Huizong, who proposed by Shi Chuan, now seem unreliable.

At the same time, the King of Yan now holds the largest military armed forces in the north. Judging from the several orders issued by the King of Yan, the King of Yan tends to agree with the literati's constraints on imperial power... So as a member of the literati, what else can hesitate?

As the country came, everyone was reflecting on it. The logic that Shi Chuan said was clear and self-justified. So Li Gang, who once wrote a blood letter to ask Huizong to abdicate, has now made up his mind that no matter who Bianliang City belongs in the future, I must protect this city that is the best in the world and hand it over to the legal ruler intact.

After he made up his mind, Li Gang suddenly realized that his power was not weak. When he announced that the guardians of Bianliang City would no longer accept the orders of Qinzong, the people of Bianliang City, who were originally disdainful of the government's orders, took to the streets and responded to the call to defend the city. Then, when he heard that the defending troops were not dispatched by Qinzong, Ling Peng, who was stationed at the South Gate, immediately announced that he would accept Li Gang's command. Then, Li Gang received a million thunderbolt bombs. With these thunderbolt bombs, although they could not attack the enemy, it was enough to defend the city.

Soon, Han Shilou sent people to the city and announced that the army of kings was about to arrive in the normal history. The news that the army of kings was about to arrive was instead stabbed Qin Zong, who was in a hysterical state. He insisted on speeding up the surrender, which made Li Gang angry but helpless. But now, this hysteria will only make Li Gang more inclined to King Yan, and he refused to open the city gate and let the envoy of Qin Zong out of the city.

Compared with the literati in Bianliang City, the Jin people knew better about war. They knew that they would never attack the city at this time, because they went deeper alone. Once the attacking action was launched, the king-stricken army rushed to the place where they could not retreat, and then they would die without a burial place. So the Jin people continued to intimidate the Qin Zong in the city... Unfortunately, Li Gang, who calmed down, saw the clues from the continuous threats of the Jin people. He sat firmly on the top of the city and refused to pass on the threats of the Jin people to the Qin Zong.

Therefore, Qinzong, who had made all the etiquette of succession, became a puppet without anyone to care about it. The Yanjing City also stabilized.

At the end of February, Yue Fei, who occupied the entire Zhending Prefecture, welcomed the huge acceptance team brought by Lin Chong. Lin Chong brought about 120,000 people into Zhending this time. Almost everyone in the team had never been empty-handed. He held hands and pushed countless food and weapons to carry. Yue Fei looked at this huge team and said for a while: "It turns out... you actually have so many people coming over?" Lin Chong smiled tiredly: "Mr. said: We should do what the Jin people can do. The Jin people can start with the bitter and cold land to capture our Great Song Hebei, and the troops are coming to our Great Song Dynasty. We can also use the power of Jingdong and the two routes to recover Hebei and even Yanjing.

The Jin people can cross the Yellow River south, and we can cross the commander of Yue north. Half of the resources of my two routes in Jingdong are here. During this period, I tried hard to blow up the river and break the ice surface just to transport these materials to you...

Although there are many people coming this time, there are not many soldiers fighting. About 100,000 are all civil servants. Taoist lord has been exempted from his husband's money. These civil servants are all hired by us. The adults said that if you want to attack Taiyuan, the food you carry must be resistant to storage. What I bring to you is to cover meat, bacon, cheese, food and grass, you can get it, but this time there are only 20,000 soldiers who come across the river. I can only give you three thousand at most. I want to use the remaining 17,000 people to block the Jin people's retreat, so I can't give you many thunderbolts..."

"Enough" Ji Qian laughed loudly. When Lin Chong talked to Yue Fei, he had already jumped off his horse and flipped over the weight brought by Lin Chong, and cheered loudly for his discovery from time to time: "It's enough. It's really a good thing to fight with this Lord Shi. It's really a good thing. Secretly, the marching tent, the pot of drinking water, and the pot of cooking are all given. What else can I say? Brothers have sold this life to the Lord."

Yue Fei smiled proudly: "Mr. Lin, the Jin people in Zhending Mansion did not take away the food and gold. Moreover, the Jin people came to the army to bring countless cattle, horses and sheep. All of these things were seized by me. Even if the Lord did not send me one soldier and one soldier, I would still want to go to Taiyuan..."

"Don't hurry to leave." Lin Chong waved his hand: "Mr. said: After I come, I will do military merit statistics first. We cannot learn from Taoist, so that the soldiers will fight in vain. Even if we have no money now, we will count the accounts first, and wait until the river transportation is smooth, and then we will not give the soldiers. It will take about three days for me to count military merits. In these three days, you will hand over the defense and receive the weapons. In three days, you will go to Taiyuan...Mr. will force cross the river and attack the Jin people of the Amway Army in three days."

Yue Fei rubbed his hands excitedly, and then he looked at Lin Chong and said, "Lindu Jian Zhending Mansion has such a large territory, and it is absolutely impossible to defend with 17,000 people alone. I have to let Lou Lai do this job. Even if I have 50,000 people in my hand, I can't defend... But if I use attack instead of defense, I can only protect Zhending Mansion with 10,000 people."

Lin Chong waved his hand: "The order given to me by sluggishing the pace of the Jin people. If we have few soldiers, if we attack,"

Yue Fei hurriedly added: "There are more than 270 small Jin people villages in Zhending Prefecture, and I have burned all of them. Now, there is no one left in Zhending."

Lin Chong turned around and looked outside Zhending City. He saw that in the shacks all over the mountains outside Zhending City, trembling refugees were coming in and out like ants. In the gap between the refugees' camps, the sheds for porridge and relief were burning a faint heat. Teams of refugees were moving mechanically, waiting for their turn in a daze...

"Rise, the people suffer, the people suffer, the people suffer... Forget it, what is most needed now is to stabilize people's hearts. I brought more than a hundred civil officials and immediately dispersed to let the local administrative officials restore the administrative masters said that the most important task was "the refugees entered the wing (training refugees to enter the wing army). Now there are no Jin people in Zhending Prefecture, but this is temporary. After the river water freezes, the Jin people will immediately cross the river. I defend Zhending, which means defending the fruit of victory..."

Yue Fei sighed no wonder when he said that Lin Chong was cautious, had enough success, and had no progress...

Forget it, I'd better organize my team.

It is strange that Huizong launched the Northern Expedition. Tong Guan brought cash to the camp to fulfill his military achievements on the spot, but no one believed it. Now, he didn't find the money, but he just counted it and made it into paper accounts. However, the soldiers believed that they could get the money. People with credit were different from those without credit.

Countless soldiers changed into spring uniforms with new methods, tied armed belts around their waists, hung long swords, packed plate armor and chain mail on horses, and drank the distributed high-alcohol wine in an iron military pot, chewing salted whale meat in big mouthfuls, while talking about how to huā the money in the future. A soldier said drunkenly: "I have long been interested in Erniu at the village head. I sent the money this time. I heard that the adults changed the land. I bought another ten acres of land and went back to the village to go to Erniu...I... Erniu..."

"What's wrong?" Another soldier was from the same village. While enjoying himself, he asked vaguely, "What's wrong with Erniu?"

"Wow... Erniu is gone, my Erniu is not here. The day before yesterday, I met a fugitive from the same village at the east gate. They said that the village was burned down, the Jin people... Jurchens, I want to kill their whole family."

The soldiers in Tonglin put down their bad heads and comforted them, "They can't run away. They are all in the Amway Army and will not let them run away!"

Another soldier advised: "You can apply to stay so that you can go to Amway's first batch of military muscles.

The Yue family army was basically composed of Taihang thieves. After Ji Qian annexed Shi Bin's team, the team expanded to 10,000 people. Yue Fei was particularly good at snowball fighting. After the Zhending Mansion was defeated, his team had expanded to 100,000. Due to the difficulty of transporting food and grass, Yue Fei planned to bring only 30,000 soldiers to Taiyuan this time, including half of the war soldiers and half of the auxiliary soldiers. Zong Han was facing Zong Han, and under his command, he had 60,000 elite Jurchen cavalry. However, even so, Yue Fei insisted that he was bullying the more people in this battle, and he was less than 15,000 combat soldiers, and he bullied the 60,000 soldiers of Zong Han.

The selected soldiers will be supplemented with Lin Chong's army and will be taken to various counties by civil servants in his team as the main force of local regiment training, and those who are familiar with the terrain will serve as guides and become auxiliary soldiers of Lin Chong's army. The responsibility that Lin Chong's army will soon bear is to intercept the returned Jin people.

At this time, the Jin people felt the danger of staying in the city of Bianliang for a long time. Zong Wang sent a team of 3,000 people along the river to find a crossing point. At this time, the Jin people with low news did not know that the situation in the north had become very serious.

Zhang Shuye was a capable minister, and he was not a Jinshi, but a ninth-rank judge. He was promoted step by step from a low-level minor official. He knew all the skills of minor officials in the officialdom. He was also a guy who dared to think, do and acted, and he was trapped in the enemy's siege when he crossed the river. In this way, he avoided Zhang Shuye's edge, Zhang Shuye, the first person in the Yan Palace, immediately burst out with all his enthusiasm for work.

In early February, after a difficult transfer, more than 300 artillery pieces arrived by the Yellow River. Zhang Shuye immediately ordered Xu Ning and his eldest son Zhang Bofen to lead the army into Hua... that is, the white horse of the Three Kingdoms era) to bombard the Jin soldiers' camps on the south bank with cannons. Zhang Shuye relied on the number of soldiers and did not rush his money to siege them all night. After tens of days, Huazhou City fell, Zhang Shuye immediately used tens of thousands of civilians to build a new building.

Shortly after the recapture of Huazhou, Qin Hui and others came to the Yan King's Mansion. Through the Battle of Huazhou, the Yan King had already shown his strength. At the same time, the court in Bianliang City was in panic and did not want to know what the people outside were doing. So, the backbone of the War of Resistance immediately fell on the Yan King. The gentry and people of Huazhou all "cupped pots to welcome them". In order to whitewash their performance among the Jin people, many gentry sent their own slaves to help build the city. In just ten days, a new-style, time-style bastion appeared in Huazhou, blocking the road of the Jin people's cavalry.

At this time, the wind direction had changed. When the King of Yan promised to compensate the people for war, countless idle officials followed Qin Hui's footsteps to the King of Yan's mansion. Under the leadership of Zhang Shuye, the King of Yan's mansion had already begun to take over the rule of Jinglu Road. Zhang Shuye, who had received sufficient manpower and material support, immediately became ruthless when he saw this group of Jin cavalry. The Jin soldiers fired an arrow at Huazhou New City. Tens of thousands of corpses surrounded them, surrounding them so that they could not be separated...

Two days later, Zong Wang received the news from the breakout soldiers and felt that the city of Bianliang could not stay for a long time. Then he used Yin Keshu as the vanguard and the entire army led the camp and rushed towards Huazhou.

When the army marched near Ji County, Zong Wang heard the muffled thunder in the distance, remembered the thunder sounds mentioned by the scouts, and asked quickly: "But the Song army is launching thunder bombs?"

The horse trampled to the river bank and looked around, and reported: "Sir, there are much less ice on the river surface, and there are more black ships on the river surface. The thunder sounds from the opposite side of the river. Fireworks are ripped out on our camp on the north bank of the river. It seems that the Song army in red is besieging our camp..."

Zong Wang thought about it, remembering a group of Hebei surrendered ministers who had been forgotten by him, and hurriedly urged: "Call those southerners in the camp and tell me what this is?"

"Pi Li Bomb" the surrendered minister replied: "This is the sound caused by the new gunpowder of the Ling clan in Mizhou. Emperor Daojun once used it to create the sound of thunder in Jingfu Palace to imitate the fight between gods in the sky. It is said that the Shi family of Haizhou used this new gunpowder to make weapons. I heard that this weapon sounds like thunder, and the iron and stones are broken when they land...

Zong Wang first heard that it was Emperor Daojun's toy, and he was a little despised. When he heard about the name Shishi in Haizhou, he suddenly remembered the news that Yin Keshu had heard of and asked anxiously: "Is the one who came here Shi Chuan, the defense envoy of Jingdong East Road?"

On the other side of the river, it was Shi Chuan who besieged the Jin people's camp. As the ice on the river surface decreased, Shi Chuan's military operations were fully launched on the sea surface. Zhang Heng suddenly led a fleet to attack Tanggu, and arrested Zhang Linghui, who had surrendered to the Jin people, on the spot. Then, Zhang Heng killed Guo Yaoshi and Zhang Linghui for the crime of Guo Yaoshi surrendering to the enemy, and announced the takeover of Tanggu City.

Next, Shawhuang declared the land of Yanyun as the fief of the King of Yan in the name of King of Yan. Those who take one city are the lord of one city, and those who take one county are the lord of one county.

Zhang Heng's words are almost a copy of Tong Guan's words, but strangely, the people in Yan did not believe Tong Guan's belief in the King of Yan. Then, the resentful troops stationed in various places turned against Xiancheng. Zhang Heng signed several city lords within a day, and then he was stunned to find that the land of Yanyun, the Jin people, was so empty that it was unimaginable.



The fall of Tanggu City in Zhang Heng means that the entrance to the sea estuary of the north and south tributaries of the Yellow River was controlled by Shi Chuan Navy. On that day, Hu Yanchuo led the inland waters into the Yellow River, and while blasting the ice, he was struggling against the current. The roar and power caused by their blasting invisibly increased the speed of surrender in Yanyun. When the huge fleet entered Hebei, the officials who had surrendered to the Jin people were frightened and they vaguely guessed that the Jin people who crossed the river to threaten the imperial court might not be able to return home.

At this time, the Jin people in the camp on the north bank were moved, and some of the subordinates had deserted. At this time, Shi Chuan suddenly crossed the river north of Kaide Prefecture and began to contact the Jin people head-on.

Shi Chuan's tactics were very conservative. He insisted on the step-by-step strategy. He only advanced twenty miles a day before setting up camp. After continuing to move forward the next day, the camp was not demolished, leaving it to the soldiers who came to cross the river continuously. At first, the Jin soldiers bullied others, and thought of letting him stay away from the river bank and captured it in one go. But five days later, Shi Chuan had already left five camps behind him, with about 5,000 people stationed in each camp.

When the Jin people saw it, Chuan was not impatient or impatient, and there were more and more people, which seemed endless. So when he drove three thousand soldiers to drive them out yesterday, Shi Chuan suddenly made a counterattack and advanced to the Jin army camp that night. Then, Hu Yanchuo's inland waters arrived and used cannons to disperse the Jin soldiers by the river, and helped Shi Chuan camp.

There was no general in the Jin camp, which caught Shi Chuan off guard. Early this morning, when he saw Shi Chuan's subsequent camp reinforcements, the Jin people decided to dispatch cavalry to attack the reinforcements. When the Jin people moved, Shi Chuan immediately ordered the entire army to attack the Jin camp.

"I don't know the details - Piao Tianyi - waving the whip in leisurely. In front of him, a group of soldiers were spreading hollow square formations with the sermon drums, and the auxiliary soldiers were crazily piled up sandbags in front of the array. At a glance, the fiery red military uniforms were covered with the new green earth, and the tassels on the soldiers' heads were facing the cherry blossoms and cherry blossoms on the ground,

The sound of military horns came one after another, causing a light atmosphere to float in the sky.
