Chapter 520: Extraterritorial War
The time when the Jin people chose to attack Ujak City happened to be stuck at the node of the New Year.
This once again disrupted Wang Yan's plan, and Wang Yan was originally going to hold a New Year's ceremony during the New Year to win over the hearts of the people.
This is very important, and the celebration of every major festival can increase the recognition of the Great Song Dynasty by the Ujak people.
Wang Yan was fully prepared, but unfortunately Jin Ren no longer gave him this opportunity.
Whether or not they were able to repel the attack of the Jin people this time became a dispute over the ownership of the black soil area near Ujak City.
Uyakat and Hoeryeong are located at the northern and southern ends of the black soil districts, and both Buyeo and Hoeryeong provinces are using their power to control more of the black soil districts.
And this time the Jin people attacked Ujak City, obviously they came prepared, from combat preparations to marching, they were all quiet, if it wasn't for Han Fang's news, maybe Ujak City would have been hit hard.
But now that the Jin people's intentions have been exposed, as long as the defense is carefully arranged, the Jin people's offensive should not have much effect.
He flapped the horse and drove swiftly in the direction of Ujak City.
Da Song will not forget that this song also sounded in the six cities of Baoyi Prefecture and the Hetao area.
Zhang Xiaochun did not choose to surrender this time after all, he always felt a little ashamed, because the opponent was a Western Xia person.
And he did not choose to surrender, and actively prepared for war, although Wuyuan City was in danger several times, but it turned around safely.
When Hu Yantong rushed into the camp of Western Xia with his cavalry and burned the grain and grass of the Western Xia army, Wuyuan City finally got a chance to breathe.
When Li Qianshun's logistical supply line was speeding up to replenish grain and grass for the 50,000-strong army of Western Xia, the dragon flag with red background and yellow characters fluttered in the distance.
Then the morale of the Tangut people collapsed.
They had been fearing that Yue Fei's Dong Shengwei's army would come to repel them.
This worry has been brewing for more than a month, and when they really saw the bright Yuezi flag, the Tangut people didn't do any fighting.
Those who directly threw away their armor fled in the direction of the mouth.
Yue Fei's attack was to eliminate the 50,000 Tanguts, and Zhang Xian of Hangjin City led 10,000 Hejian troops to Dengkou City to block the retreat route of the Tanguts.
If Yue Fei frightened the Tanguts with his outstanding achievements, the soldiers led by Zhang Xian made a detour to the mouth to block the retreat of the Tanguts.
The final sword to kill the Tangut people was completed by the people of the Hetao area.
The plundering of the Western Xia soldiers and the behavior of using the people as rations completely ignited the anger of the people in the Hetao area, and the people of the entire Houtao picked up their only farm tools and began to resist.
The pursuit of the cavalry led by Yue Fei killed most of the Western Xia soldiers, and Yue Fei also captured nearly 10,000 Western Xia soldiers, and was pulled down by Yue Fei to the mining area on the Iron Mountain under the newly developed Jiuyuan City.
When Yue Fei's soldiers formed a team of three or three and pushed the battle line to Dengkou, it marked that the 50,000 people in Western Xia were completely wiped out in the Houtao area.
Yue Fei once again proved his talent as a famous player with a brilliant record.
"I don't know how Zhang Xianggong is going to manage the two sets of Hetao next?" Yue Fei took off the bloody cage hand.
He washed his hand in clean water, dried it next to the brazier, and took out a small iron kettle, which was full of oil.
Washing, drying, rubbing oil, and taking good care of the cage hands, Yue Fei has never forgotten things.
Although the iron materials of the Great Song Dynasty have become less tense with the continuous expansion of the Cizhou mining area, the plate armor accessories of the cage hand are still extremely scarce, and there are no more than 1,000 pieces in the whole army.
He carefully unwrapped the cage and prepared to coat it with oil and store it in a green wood box.
"General Yue, is there any good way?" Zhang Xiaochun asked cautiously.
Yue Fei thought for a while and said, "It seems that I asked you." General Wang asked me to ask Zhang Xianggong if he had surrendered in fright. ”
Zhang Xiaochun looked at Yue Fei, who was seriously maintaining his hands under the candlelight, and said, "I've thought about it." ”
Yue Fei was stunned for a moment, his subordinates' movements stopped, sneered, and said, "You are sincere." It's a pity that there is no chance, and the Tangut people are all dead. ”
Zhang Xiaochun scratched his head and said: "It's still a little worse to think and do, I don't know if General Yue knew Zhao Chongguo when he was a strong man?" ”
Yue Fei continued to take care of his cage hands, and after oiling it, he was relieved and said in the box: "Don't think that you scholars know allusions, we martial artists also have many books. ”
"One of the ten philosophers and seventy-two sages of Wumiao, Zhao Chongguo, who is ranked in the west, is only ranked after Wei Qing, can a certain An not know Zhao Chongguo?"
Zhang Xiaochun said with an embarrassed face: "General Yue misunderstood, he didn't mean that, he just remembered some decrees of the Western Han Dynasty general Zhao Chongguo, and thought that the current situation could rely on Tuntian to defend the Western Xia and seek the Hetao again." ”
"That's what Zhao Chongguo did in Hetao at the beginning, and the effect was good. Therefore, I thought that the effect in Hetao Tuntian should not be bad. ”
"Oh? You're quite knowledgeable. Yue Fei put his things away and said with a smile.
This Zhang Xiaochun is a little timid, but he still has some vision and strategy.
"I'm just about to give the official good news, I can forward what you want to say." Yue Fei smiled and opened the notebook.
Zhang Xiaochun asked with a hint of confusion on his face: "I said, the official family won't be angry, right?" ”
Yue Fei ignored Zhang Xiaochun's statement and began to write a military newspaper, and he first made a summary of the war in the Hetao area with the officials.
The main army led by Zhang Xian has completed its own task and is returning to Hangjin City and Shuofang City, Yue Fei has a day of rest in Wuyuan City, and he must hurry back to Dongshengwei.
Yue Fei was originally worried that if he eliminated the enemy of the back set, there would be unnecessary trouble, such as the Jin people attacking Dongshengwei, and the entire defense system of the Great Song Dynasty would collapse.
However, judging from the frequent military reports from Han Shizhong, it seems that the Jin people are defending the city and have no intention of attacking.
And according to the information from Jingbian City, the eyes of the Jin people are now focused on Ujak City.
Han Shizhong analyzed that the Jin people were unwilling to fight on two fronts.
This year, the Jin people fought on two fronts in Ushabao and Goryeo, which was extremely risky, and the Jin people, who had gained little, seemed unwilling to start fighting on two fronts lightly.
This made Yue Fei breathe a sigh of relief, but he still decided to hurry up and turn back to Dongshengwei to prevent any trouble.
Yue Fei finished writing the notebook, blew dry the ink and said, "Tell me what you think." ”
"At this time, it is not suitable to send troops to attack Western Xia, Tuntian will get twelve pennies, and send troops to lose twelve benefits." After Zhang Xiaochun finished speaking, he looked at Yue Fei with some apprehension.
Yue Fei is a well-known main battle faction, and he has won many battles, the battle of Xingzhongfu is a defeat at most, he has never broken a soldier, where is it a defeat?
How could he not be apprehensive when he said such a truce in front of Yue Fei?
Yue Fei looked at Zhang Xiaochun's left hand hidden in his sleeve, and said, "Take it, I know that you have been ready for a long time, ready to convince me, and then let me persuade the official family, right." Let me see. ”
Zhang Xiaochun nodded and took out a notebook "Twelve Incidents of Cheap Tuntian on the Strip".
Yue Fei looked at this note for a long time, and said: "At this time, the turmoil in Bianjing's "Hanging Ancient Battlefield Text" has not subsided, and there may be major changes in the court after the year, so you are not willing to go to such a delayed war, right?" ”
Zhang Xiaochun nodded helplessly, the incident of "Hanging Ancient Battlefield Text" made the entire Great Song Dynasty known, he was a timid person, so he naturally did not dare to read at this time.
"Tuntian truce for twelve times, and the army will lose twelve benefits, your notebook is very well written. You convinced me. Yue Fei said with a smile, ready to summarize Zhang Xiaochun's notebook and write it to the official family.
This truce of Zhang Xiaochun refers to a truce against the Western Xia, not against the Jin.
There are twelve of them, and among these twelve articles, in Yue Fei's opinion, three are the most critical.
The first is that the Hetao area, especially the Houtao area, should recuperate with the people, and if there is another war, the people will not be able to do so.
Houtao suffered from the military disaster of the Tangut people, and if the fight continued, the people's hearts would be turbulent.
Article 2 Residents may combine their fields and cultivate their fields without losing their agriculture.
Houtao was originally a big granary, but now even the regular closing has bottomed out, and the cultivation of next spring needs the support of Hedong Road.
If the fight continues, the grain and grass will not be transported in time, and it will easily cause the grain and grass transportation on the front line to be unfavorable.
Article 3 The Jin people must not be prepared, and the Khitan must not be worried.
In Zhang Xiaochun's view, the current situation is very similar to the situation faced by Zhao Chongguo at the beginning, the Jin people are eyeing up at Wushabao and want to take back Dongshengwei and then seek the territory west of Daxianbei Mountain.
And Western Xia also has the peep of the remnant Liao soldiers led by Yelu Dashi.
If he continued to attack Western Xia, the Great Song Dynasty would not necessarily benefit, but the remnants of Liao would definitely benefit, which were the three most important reasons why Zhang Xiaochun should not fight against Western Xia.
are also the three reasons that persuaded Yue Fei.
"I will explain to the official family that this Tuntian Twelve Incident is your merit. What you're saying here is excellent. Yue Fei finished writing the notebook and said with a smile.
Tuntian is a series of decrees to persuade farmers.
For example, the use of incentives for soldiers, common people, and merchants to reclaim wasteland; There are also soldiers who are soldiers in wartime, and farming is a specific military dispatch for farmers; and the training of the militia of the rebels to serve as reserves.
Zhang Xiaochun said it very well, but he didn't dare to talk about the truce, so he came up with his own ideas, wanting Yue Fei to share the credit and risk with him.
Of course, Yue Fei could see Zhang Xiaochun's intentions, and he was also willing to share a little merit in the matter of the Hetao.
In fact, Zhang Xiaochun has been away from the court for too long, and he has lost his keen sense of politics.
In Yue Fei's opinion, this matter has been troubled for so long, and the official family exiled Kong Duanyou to Zhenzhou, still in the name of receiving reeducation.
The official was going to raise it high and put it down gently.
Yue Fei knew the heart of the official family, and in order not to interrupt the combat deployment of the Jin State, everything else could be compromised.
Including his own face.
There may be a liquidation after the year, Yue Fei guessed that it was also Li Gang who took action to clean up some tumors in conspicuous positions in the court.
It is impossible for this action to involve the entire territory of the Great Song Dynasty, at most it will be done in the Beijing officials in Bianjing.
Therefore, Zhang Xiaochun's merit of persuasion can only give Yue Fei a piece of the pie.
"Then will you add this to me?"
"Chen Chun is fortunate to receive the grace of God, and he will be punished by heaven, and this crime deserves death. However, His Majesty was lenient and benevolent, and did not bear to punish him, so that the ministers could count it. ”
"The foolish ministers are very scheming, they dare not avoid the punishment of the axe, and they will die foolishly, but Your Majesty will investigate." Zhang Xiaochun said with a blank eye.
Yue Fei also shook his head again and again when he heard this, and the official family used Zhang Xiaochun to do the Hetao scripture, which shows that the official family is a person who follows the traces from the heart.
Zhang Xiaochun wanted to surrender, but after all, he didn't do such a thing.
He followed Taiyuan City, fought for more than 200 days, and was surrounded by the Tangut people in Hetao for more than 60 days.
Yue Fei felt that Zhang Xiaochun didn't have to be so careful.
It's a pity that Zhang Xiaochun obviously didn't dare to use his life to test the bottom line of the official family.
Yue Fei smiled and said, "Okay, it's okay to add it to you?" ”
Yue Fei felt that if the literati of the Great Song Dynasty were like Zhang Xiaochun, it would actually be good, fear would be fear, and work would be done.
It's quite capable without dragging its feet, and that's enough.
Yue Fei and Zhang Xiaochun were discussing Zhao Chongguo's strategy in Hetao, and at this time in Laizhou City, Wanyan Zonggan and Wang Yu were also discussing Zhao Chongguo.
Wanyanzong wiped the sweat on his forehead and said: "Zhao Chongguo is a typical example, Sun Tzu's Art of War, the form is cloudy, and the so-called good fighters in ancient times are better than those who are easy to win." Therefore, the victory of the good fighter is also without wisdom and fame, and there is no bravery, so his victory is not bad. ”
"Therefore, it is said: Those who are good at fighting have no great name."
"Look at Zhao Chongguo, hasn't he fought any tough battles? Who knows about him among the people? However, they are ranked among the seventy-two sages of the martial temple, and they have enjoyed the imperial sacrifice for generations. This is called the good fighter without a great name. ”
"Don't keep thinking about fighting Jinzhou, that's the gate of Wanyan Zongwang to the Eastern Dynasty, what are you doing in Jinzhou? Nailed to Laizhou, it is a big trouble for Wanyan Zongwang, he can't eat you, as long as he keeps Laizhou, Jin Ren will be like a fish in his throat. ”
"The feeling of eating, not being able to eat, vomiting, and not being able to vomit, is always uncomfortable."
After Yan Zonggan finished speaking, he continued to do his own thing, he was living in the mud, preparing to make a fire kang for Wang Yu.
The injuries on Wang Yu's body were more serious than the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, stationed in Laizhou, and when the cold blew, it was a pain all over his body and heart.
Wanyan Zonggan didn't want Wang Yu to die, Wang Yu died, and he had to die too.
And Lin Youyu didn't want to see Wang Yu in such pain, and the entire Great Song Dynasty's Jiesheng Army stationed in Laizhou didn't want to see Wang Yu tortured by injuries.
However, the cold wind was not under the control of Wanyan Zonggan, so Wanyan Zonggan decided to take out the golden man's method to fight the cold and give Wang Yu the entire fire kang out.
The pan fire kang is not complicated, as long as there are bricks.
He also drew a sketch and commanded the people of the almshouse and the soldiers of the Jiesheng Army to prepare to build a row of houses with underfloor heating.
Dig a pit in the foundation of the house, plug the bellflower, plug the fire door, let the bellflower burn incompletely in the pit, and the smoke goes down the flue made of the bricks to ensure the temperature of the room.
When the floor heating house and the kang are up, Wang Yu will not be so difficult to survive the winter.
Wang Yu shrank in the big air, shivering in the cold wind and said, "Isn't this boring? This is stationed in Shanhaiguan, so there is no way to attack. I fought a war once a year, or my wife took over the Imperial City Division, and I didn't move for a year, and I felt that my bones were rusty. ”
Lin Youyu patted Wang Yu lightly and said, "If you want me to say, you are a tired life!" This festival has been made to the throne. But two days of leisure, just thinking about war! You've done all your merits, what other generals have done? ”
"The credit is big enough, let's not stand up." Lin Youyu coaxed Wang Yu like a child.
There was also a hint of worry in her words.
In Lin Youyu's opinion, the official family put Wang Yu in Shanhaiguan, and they also did not want Wang Yu to continue to make meritorious contributions.
"Mrs. Sister-in-law, this is underestimating the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, I have seen the official family, that is a reckless man!"
"I want to kill Jinren with all my might! He was a good man in his bones. Wang Zhengchen is to make immortal achievements, and the officials will only be happy. ”
Wanyan Zonggan pasted the mud in his hand on the masonry and said: "If you can't seal it, you will be given all kinds of privileges, anyway, your Central Plains Dynasty will prosper this, and you will not enter the dynasty, and you will have privileges such as praise and worship, and you will get a bunch of them." ”
"Whoever says that Wang Zhengchen rebelled in front of the emperor, that is the real rebellion, and the official family is not a stupid person. Anyone in the world can rebel, but Wang Zhengchen will not. ”
Wanyan Zonggan commanded the two people, carrying a cement slab and placing it on top of the masonry, and several steel bars were worn in the cement slab.
This method was invented by the emperor, called the method of reinforced concrete structure, and the stone slab made is durable, but it is absolutely good to use it to make a fire kang.
"I hope so. Alright, let Zong do the work, you go back to the house. Lin Youyu persuaded Wang Yu.
Wanyan Zong shoveled some dust, spread it under the kang and smashed it, wiped the sweat on his head and said, "I said that I was called Wang Jiayan!" ”
"Zhengchen, go back to the house, I am here, you can rest assured, you will live in a warm floor heating kang room the day after tomorrow!"
Wang Yu nodded, stood up and returned to the house, took out a piece of paper in his hand tremblingly, and learned from the Great Song Emperor, the song "The Great Song Dynasty Will Not Forget" passed over.
Wanyan Zonggan frowned, listening to Wang Yu's duck-like singing, and shook his head again and again.
This emperor of the Great Song Dynasty is really a genius in the world!
During the Chinese New Year, relying on this song, I don't know how many soldiers I can win, and I don't know how many supporters of the Great Song Emperor will come.
Da Song did not forget Wang Zhengchen, but it is a pity that Dajin forgot all about him, the eldest son of Wanyan Agu, Wanyan Zonggan.
Wanyan Zonggan went from handcuffs and leg cuffs at the beginning, to the later thousands of miles of war, with his own ox cart, and then to give advice to the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, in exchange for the current stability.
Wang Yu no longer let people look at him.
Wanyan Zonggan even took people out of the city to hunt, and the farthest place he ran could see the ironware workshops in Benxi and the tall city walls of Liaoyang City.
But he had no intention of going back.
It's better to stay in Da Song to be safe when you go back.
He is going to Liaoyang City now, and he will die violently on the first day he will enter the first day.
His identity determines that he will never return to the Kingdom of Jin.
"Wang Jiayan, someone is looking for you! She said that her name is Li Jinge, and she is your concubine Shun......" A soldier in the distance who was loading rafters shouted loudly.
"It's a beautiful Ujak girl, isn't it the romantic debt you left in the Golden Kingdom? What a big pomp, Concubine Shun! The soldier burst out laughing, and the whole camp was filled with joy.
Wanyan Zonggan is a Jin man, and in the eyes of the Great Song Dynasty soldiers, the Jin people are equivalent to military merits.
But Wanyan Zonggan can't kill him, and if he kills him, Wang Yu will be very angry and sad.
The soldiers couldn't do it, after all, in front of the Huanglong Mansion, on the snowfield, it was only by the strategy of Wanyan Zonggan that they survived.
So the soldiers could only treat him as a Song man.
After a long time, everyone has forgotten that he is a noble man.
This cold concubine came out of nowhere, which reminded them that Wanyan Zonggan was still the Liao King of the Jin Kingdom.
Wanyan Zonggan raised his head, he glanced at the woman, shook his head and laughed and said, "There are too many impostors!" Lao Tzu, the name of the King of Liao, is still very valuable! ”
There were tears in his eyes, it was indeed his wife Li Jinge.
and his eldest son, Wan Yanchong, who is less than nine years old this year.
The seven-year-old eldest daughter Wan Yan Di bowl, and Wan Yan Liang in his arms.
But he can only joke with haha, he can't admit it.
The Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty would not tolerate him having descendants, and although the Jin Kingdom forgot about him, his wife still ran thousands of miles from Huining Mansion and came to him with her children.
"That's your wife, we have investigated and reported it to the official family, you are ready." Lin Youyu stood behind Wanyan Zonggan, looked at the woman in the distance and said.
Wanyan Zonggan's face changed several times, and finally turned into a sigh, he didn't know if the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty would spare his wife and children.
Wanyan Zonggan didn't blame Li Jinge, after he was kicked out of Huanglong Mansion, his three children and Li Jinge had nowhere to go.
Jin Guo doesn't want them.
But can Da Song tolerate having an heir?
The sky and the earth are big, and there is no place for him to complete the Yan Zonggan family.
