Chapter 271: Wealth and honor will be the world, and we will be worthy of our old robes. The thief chief!
At the end of November, Wanyan Liang saw that the army had reached 80% or 90% and the Dading Prefecture had already been overwhelmed. The troops were nearly 90,000, and the troops were noisy inside and outside the Dading Prefecture all day long. Even the civil and military officials who were accompanying the army could not bear it anymore. So on November 25, the army of the Dading Prefecture Alliance was set off and came to Yanjing.
Yang Zaixing got General Liu Qi to receive money and food, and he had already accumulated the Hejian Prefecture warehouse. He expected that he could support him for at least three or four months after a battle. So he ordered the army to build siege equipment early, and was very busy. After hearing that Wanyan Liang's army came, he knew that many years of preparation had come to use, so he didn't have to hold back at this time. The central army sent an order to go forward, and the Hejian Prefecture army moved forward with the front army and camped within 30 miles outside the Yanjing Prefecture City.
On that day, he was discussing camp transfer with the generals in the tent. Suddenly, he heard that the Bai army came to report. He said that thousands of cavalry were coming quickly, but they were not the soldiers who came to Beijing. I don’t know where they came from, so I was inquiring. At night, the Bai army entered urgently and reported that it turned out that it was the Wang Gu army with Helan Khan to help. The migratory day and the moon were all 70,000 Song people who were accompanying him!
From Ali, the tiger was sent to Xiao Yu's order, and led his troops back to Yanjing to defend. Song people who went to Dongshengzhou to build walls and trenches fled one after another. The Jin people who supervised the work were limited. When Ali, when the tiger was sent to lead the army to go away, not to mention supervising the construction of the Song people, even their own safety became a problem. Sure enough, by mid-October, Helan Khan, who led his tribes away from the Jin army, heard the news and was overjoyed. He led his troops to the walls and stormed the Jin people who were left behind, and then rescued them.
More than 70,000 Song people were captured from Hebei. Later, from the time of the Jin people he captured, he learned that Yang Zaixing had launched a large-scale northern expedition. He had lost the news of the Helan Khan's army in chaos. He heard the good news and discussed with his tribesmen, so he led these Song people to the front of the army to serve. However, along the way, the Jin people were scattered soldiers and bravely wandering. Helan Khan protected the Song people on the road. He was unhappy for a while and was anxious, afraid that he would miss the Yanjing War, but he did not want to arrive at the place before the war.
"Brother, after leaving for many years, Luo is fortunate to be humiliated!" Helan Khan bowed his hands and kneeled down, unable to control himself.
Yang Zaixing also burst into tears, and with a long laugh, he stepped forward and helped him up: "The Helan Khan of the Wanggu tribe is powerful in the northern desert and is famous for thousands of miles. He is called the No. 1 Khan of Mongolia on the grassland. Even the Khan of the Golden Tent Hu Tu Shi praised him. How can he be so polite in front of a certain family! I dare not take it!"
The two of them looked at each other and laughed, and the generals burst into tears.
Gao Lin, Wang Lan stepped forward and grabbed Helan Khan firmly. Gao Lin laughed and scolded: "Our family is still working hard under the command of Master Yang. Helan Khan fell on the grassland to dominate the country. I wonder if he was in the tent of the concubines of the Wanggu tribe, and he was worried about returning to Zezhou for a gathering? Hahahaha!"
Helan Khan slapped Gao Lin's backhand and scolded: "Mr. Gao is now building a church and opening a mansion, so how can he know the bitterness among the wild grass? If Gao is asked to go to the Qianli Ranch of Wanggubu and chew butter tea for three years, I am afraid he won't envy Khan's glory!"
When the generals retreated, only Gao Lin and Wang Lan were there, Yang Zaixing said with gale, "Li De was a wealthy man in Jiangnan. Apart from Qin Hui and a certain family, there was no other son in the world. Yao You was the head of the cloth shop in Jincheng, Zezhou, and managed the world's largest white cloth business. There was no rich merchant in Jiangnan silk and satin. There was no one who could earn less than one million silks per year. But he had gained weight and was not inferior to Li De, so he could no longer go to fight to kill thieves. However, what the soldiers in the army were doing and what they were eating from their mouths, Li De and Yao You were actually of great achievements!"
"Mr. Wang is the head of Huainan Marketing Department. He has more than 10,000 troops and more than 100 warships. Now, the South and the East Seas are invincible. Even if the two dynasties in the north and south want to fight each other, they must be far inferior to Wang Lan! Helan Khan cannot say anything. On the grassland, if the strength of the military armor is intensified, there is no other family than Helan Khan. Brother Gao is slightly inferior to everyone in terms of money, but Hebei's troops are all in their hands. At present, which school lieutenant dares to say that he was not trained in Zezhou in Zezhou? After the battle in Zhuxianzhen, he did not expect that all the brothers will achieve their achievements today, so Yang has no regrets!"
The three of them bowed together and said, "All thanks to my elder brother Hongfu!"
Yang Zaixing shook his head and said, "There is no necessity in the world. It is all about human power that goes against the will of heaven. If the brothers achieve this, how can they be blessed with the brothers? Most of them are about the brothers who use their own lives and follow the trend. If you win this battle, it will be worth working hard with the brothers, and you can comfort your brothers for your whole life!"
Helan Khan was silent for a moment, and hesitated for a few moments, and then hesitated: "What the brothers did is nothing more than the success of the Northern Expedition. Although he was in the Wanggu tribe for many years, he enjoyed great honor, but after this battle, he was willing to return to Zezhou to follow his elder brother, and did not want to stay on the grassland for a long time as a khan. This was supposed to be reported after the battle of Yanjing, but now there are brothers. Shu said boldly and bluntly that he had not examined the elder brother's intentions..."
Yang Zaixing said in surprise: "Helan Khan is famous in the grassland and has benefited endlessly. What else can he be afraid of? Why do you have to return to Zezhou?"
Helan Khan said unan: "I knew my elder brother would not allow it."
Yang Zaixing stood up and stroked his shoulders and said, "It's not that my foolish brother gave up. I have worked hard on the grassland, but it's of great use. The importance of it is not under the battle of Yanjing. If Helan Khan is not here, the Song Dynasty will not be safe for a hundred years. I will leave this to the next battle in Yanjing. Now I will make preparations first, cut off Wanyan Liang's head, and then tell my brothers in detail at the celebration banquet!"
The next day, the army gradually moved forward and settled a camp between 30 and 50 miles to Yanjing City. It was like a city for dozens of miles, but the scale seemed to be nowhere below Yanjing. From a distance, it was as vast as endless! According to Yang Zaixing's intention, the army did not make a siege deployment, and the army gathered in one place to build a village, waiting for Wanyan Liang to come and fight. The army's food and grass were continuously transported from Hejian Prefecture to fill the camp. At this time, the scale of the Yue family army was different from what Xiao Yu saw on that day. After repeated destruction, there were still 170,000 troops left, with Zezhou and Luzhou as the main force. These troops had experienced the battle in Hedong and had seen life and death on the battlefield. Although they could not be compared with the Yue family army's battles, they were also the mainstay.
The Yue family army, which had been newly trained in Hedong for less than two years, only went to the battlefield in the early stage of the Hebei expedition. When they arrived in Yanjing, they finally passed the most fearful stage and were no longer panicked against the enemy. With veterans, they were quite brave in the killing.
In front of the camp a hundred miles away from Yanjing, Yang Zaixing faced the sparse snowflakes in the cold wind. Seeing the army slowly moving, the flags were not chaotic, the army was mighty, and he was very relieved. In a few days, it would be the tenth anniversary of the death of the Marshal Yue. If he could pacify Hebei at this time, he would finally live up to the meaning of Yue Shuai's name "Zhiyuan" for the eldest son of the Yang family.
Just as he was feeling, Sun En, a white army, rushed over and reported: "Prince, Mr. Hong from Zezhou Prefecture has an emergency pigeon book!"
The pigeon book is sealed with gold lacquer, which is a specification that can only be used in the urgent report of the army. When Yang Zaixing opened it, he wrote: "The emperor's oral instructions: If the descendants compare with the country, the latter is the most important, and if there is a chance to save it, save it. If it cannot, give up the light and take the heavy! The envoy from Jiangnan has returned, and the emperor has no intention of fighting for the throne, and he is willing to live in Hebei before he can only."
"Your Majesty!" Yang Zaixing pulled his horse and looked at the direction of Zezhou from afar, feeling deeply moved. Although he was from later generations, he did not have much favoritism for this emperor who brought the Song people for the ages. Therefore, those who tried their best to rescue him were mostly based on Yue Fei's wish to "welcome the two saints", and he never thought of establishing a new court in Hebei. However, Zhao Huan's location was a great psychological comfort to the people of Hebei. Although Yang Zaixing was crude and unliterate in his previous life, he at least knew that this Song Dynasty was a dynasty with great Confucianism. If he did not establish a firm foothold in the word "loyalty", he would inevitably be pointed out by thousands of people and would be in danger!
Putting aside this kind of exploitation relationship, Zhao Huan can only be considered a third brother-in-law in his family and has no other connection. It is not the turn of Yang Zaixing to respect him. As long as he sees Roufu and Zhao Huan crying with joy when they meet, everything he does is worth it. Unexpectedly, Zhao Huan, who has experienced all kinds of hard work, was so generous in his later years that he could not only give up his throne, but also give up his own children, and get thousands of miles of land!
However, who knows if this is Zhao Huan's cleverness?
Even if he wants to go south to compete for the throne, can he be able to defeat Zhao Gou, who has already established a firm foothold? Even if he doesn't want to sacrifice Zhao Chen and other three sons, can he be able to stop Yang Zaixing? Instead of embarrassing himself, it is better to take a step back and broaden the sky and be much more comfortable!
Yang Zaixing really couldn't grasp Zhao Huan's original intention at this moment, but what he could deeply understand was that Zhao Huan must have tears in his smile at this moment, and his heart was extremely sad. Yang Zaixing only had infinite sympathy for this brother-in-law!
"Prince, is this?" Sun En asked in confusion when he saw Yang Zaixing's expression desolate.
Yang Zaixing handed him the pigeon book: "Let's read it yourself!" After Sun En took it over and read it, he was shocked to look up. Yang Zaixing had already left and followed the army.
At noon on December 7, the sound of hooves outside Yanjing City was heard, and a large group of soldiers and horses rushed to the city. Hundreds of dragon flags rolled high, with no less than 30,000 cavalry behind them. The defenders on the city were used to the constant disturbance of the Yue family army recently. They had already seen the constant disturbance of the Yue family army early on, waiting for the dragon flag to appear in the wind and snow, all of them were overjoyed and shouted at the top of the city: "Long live! Long live! Long live!"
In a short while, everyone in the city knew that Wanyan Liang led the imperial army to Yanjing.
In the evening, in the old hall in Yanjing City, Wanyan Liang summoned all the generals and generals in Yanjing City to have a banquet. Now the new hall project is suspended due to the battle. All craftsmen have served the construction of fortifications. There are crossbows, catapults and other things on the top of the city. The broken walls are also filled with many sharp woods in the moat to prevent the Song people from filling the river. Wanyan Liang came here, and the defenders swept away the decline. Most of the previous fears were gone, but at the dinner party, they were very happy. Wanyan Liang saw it and felt very comforted. Although he dared not say that he had the right to win, it was far more usable than the morale of the army that he had imagined before.
"The weather has been cold recently and the food and grass transportation is difficult. I heard that there are no less than thousands of frostbite in the Song army. I dare to go north to fight the royal army in the severe winter. I don't know how stupid Yang Zaixing is! Your Majesty came to Yanjing in person and was better than thousands of troops. I guess what the Southern Barbarians can do! I dare to give this cup, wish Your Majesty the great power, the thieves and the enemy will be destroyed, and the Jin Kingdom will last for thousands of years!" Xiao Yu was energetic and stepped forward to toast.
Chapter completed!
