Sixty-eight reopening of the Discussion and (I)

As soon as they heard that the reinforcements from the Jin Kingdom had finally arrived, the Western Xia government and the opposition seemed to be looking forward to a savior, and some people even cried excitedly.

Li Renxiao immediately led the civil and military officials out of the city for twenty miles, and sent a grand ceremony to welcome the people and horses of Monk Wanyan Chen. Just like welcoming an angel, he welcomed Monk Wanyan Chen into Xingqing Mansion. Then ordered to kill cattle and sheep, reward the three armies, that night Li Renxiao in the palace and feast, entertain the main generals of Yan Chen and his party, the attitude is very respectful.

And Yang Yan learned that after the men and horses of Monk Yan Chen arrived in Xingqing Mansion, he did not want to engage the Jin army now, so he immediately withdrew his troops and returned to Yingli.

At this time, the monarchs and ministers of the Western Xia Dynasty even respected the monk Yan Chen as if they were gods, and held a banquet again to celebrate the retirement of the Song army, and Li Renxiao announced in public at the banquet that all the men and horses of the Western Xia had listened to the dispatch of the monk Yan Chen, and then rewarded 200,000 yuan to reward the Jin army. Monk Wanyan Chen is a real person, and he knows that there is no merit, so he tries his best to refuse. But Li Renxiao said that he would also be rewarded, and after Yan Chen, the monk excused himself repeatedly, but finally accepted the reward, half of it was left, and half of it was scattered to the soldiers.

So after Monk Wanyan Chen rested in Xingqing Mansion for a few days, he immediately divided half of the Jin soldiers, led by Guo Shrimp Toad, and stationed in Shunzhou, and he was still stationed in Xingqing Mansion. And the Song army saw that Shunzhou was garrisoned by the Jin army, and they did not come to attack the city. However, when Monk Wanyan Chen saw that the Song army did not come to attack, he had no intention of taking the initiative to attack, and the two sides fell into a confrontation again.

Nearly 20 days have passed, and the two sides are still holding each other's troops still. Li Renxiao was a little anxious again, and also asked Monk Wanyan Chen when he would attack the Song army, but he was dismissed by Monk Wanyan Chen because of the lack of time to send troops. After asking several times, this was the result, and Li Renxiao was afraid of annoying him, so he didn't dare to ask again.

In fact, Monk Wanyan Chen mentally understood that Yang Yan's withdrawal was not because he would be afraid of the Jin army, but because he didn't want to tear his face with the Jin State for the time being. Since others have taken a step back, they can't help but be ignorant of what to do, and they are pressing forward step by step, after all, Dajin is not willing to start a full-scale war with the Southern Song Dynasty now. And this time Wanyan Chen monk only brought 30,000 gold troops, although Li Renxiao handed over all the troops of Western Xia to Wanyan Chen Monk to dispatch, but after Wanyan Chen Monk inspected the Western Xia army, he couldn't help but be disappointed, no wonder such a big country in the west was beaten so badly by more than 100,000 people and horses in Yang Yan, such an army will only become a burden, and it must go through some strict training before it can be used.

In this case, Monk Wanyan Chen naturally did not have the certainty of defeating the Song army, so he could only temporarily hold his troops and strictly defend the city, but only sent a small group of elite men and horses to attack the Song army's grain transportation team. According to his idea, now that the winter is entering and it is difficult to transport grain and grass materials, it is impossible for the Southern Song army to be stationed in Western Xia for a long time, as long as it can hold on for three or five months and constantly disturb the Song army's supply line, it can force the Song army to withdraw automatically.

Moreover, he also selected 30,000 elite soldiers from the Western Xia army to train them, and waited for the Song army to retreat, as a subsequent pursuit of the Song army and the recapture of the lost territory, because these things were done by the Western Xia army as much as possible, and he was only remotely commanded, and the Jin army could not come forward, so he would try to come forward as little as possible. In this way, after all, the Song and Jin countries did not directly confront each other, and both sides had room for maneuver in the future.

But Monk Wanyan Chen can wait, and Song Jun can wait, but Li Renxiao alone can't afford to wait.

Since the Song army invaded the territory of Western Xia, in order to prevent the Song army from receiving relief from the land of Western Xia, the Western Xia used the strategy of clearing the wilderness with strong walls, moved a large number of people into the city, and razed the villages and fields outside the city to the ground. Therefore, more than 100,000 people have moved in Shunzhou, Jingzhou, Xingqing and other big cities. After the Jin army arrived in Xingqing Mansion, although the Song army retreated, a large number of people flocked to Shunzhou, Jingzhou, Xingqing Mansion and other big cities every day. When I asked them, I learned that these were all people from Shatuo, Yingli, Youshou Baotai Military Division, Jing'an Military Division and other places, who were driven out of their homes by the Song army and could only be thrown into the big cities around Xingqing Prefecture.

These are all the people of Western Xia, although there are also some officials, but they are worried about whether the people will be mixed with the spies of the Song army, and advocate refusing to let the people into the city. But now the entire Western Xia Yijing is deeply influenced by Confucianism, and every word is to govern the country with benevolence, so what can it do? As a result, most of the officials of Western Xia scolded the Song army for being cruel and unkind, and on the other hand, the emperor asked the court to come forward to appease these people.

Li Renxiao naturally could not refuse such a request, so while issuing an order that all localities must let the people into the city, he also sent officials to Shunzhou, Jingzhou and other places to take charge of the resettlement of the people after they entered the city.

However, except for Xingqing Mansion, these cities themselves are not large, and nearly one or two hundred thousand refugees have poured in at once, and it is difficult to fully resettle the vacant dwellings in the city, although the government has also built some shacks in the city for living, but it is far from enough, and most people can only sleep on the streets. And at this time, it is the end of November, the middle of winter, dripping into water, and heavy snow will fall at any time, even if you live in a shack, it is still not safe. Moreover, the refugees almost have no food, so they can only rely entirely on the government to open porridge shacks to survive.

Therefore, after ten days, a lot of the food stored in the cities was also consumed by the refugees. Although it is not enough to run out of food, we must now be prepared for a long-term confrontation with the Southern Song Dynasty, and we can't consume food endlessly. Later, the number of times the porridge could only be opened, three times a day was changed to twice a day, and the porridge became thinner and thinner, almost becoming rice soup. The refugees who did not have enough food and clothing had no choice, and some people began to steal and rob to make ends meet, and the law and order in the city began to deteriorate. At this time, the monarchs and ministers of Western Xia discovered that the Song army's expulsion of the people was not blindly brutal, but intentional, and this trick was extremely ruthless.

And what gave Li Renxiao a headache was not only the refugee problem, but also the 30,000 gold troops brought by Monk Wanyan Chen, which also became a big burden.

In fact, there are not many 30,000 soldiers, and the military discipline of Monk Wanyan Chen is very strict, and there is no appearance of bravely breaking the ban and oppressing the people. But the bad thing is that at the beginning, the Western Xia monarchs and ministers were like looking through the autumn water to the Jin army, so as soon as the Jin army arrived, the hospitality standards for the soldiers were set too high, not to mention the meat, there was a pound of wine every three days, and they lived in a good house, eight people in a room, and someone was responsible for cleaning.

I thought that after the Jin army rested in the city for a few days, it would go out of the city to meet the Song army, and the height would be a little higher, but it would not be a few days anyway. Knowing that the Jin army lived in the city, it did not move, and the standard of daily recruitment could not be lowered, for a long time, I couldn't help but the Western Xia court was a little unbearable, and even the Western Xia army was quite complaining, after all, after the Jin army arrived in Xingqing Mansion, he didn't fight a battle, but the treatment he enjoyed was much higher than his own, and no one would be convinced.

Although Li Renxiao was worried in his heart, he was afraid that if he couldn't wait for the Song army to hold on, Western Xia would not be able to hold on first, but now he had to rely on the Jin army to deal with the Song army, so he didn't dare to say anything to the Jin army.

At this moment, Jiao Jingyan finally rushed back from Zhongdu and told the court that Jin Guoyi had promised to maneuver through it, and sent people to put pressure on the Southern Song court, forcing the Southern Song Dynasty to agree to negotiate peace with the Western Xia and withdraw from the army. When the Western Xia monarchs heard this, they felt a lot more relieved. Li Renxiao immediately summoned his ministers again to discuss the preparation of peace with the Song Dynasty.

Some people advocated that peace should be negotiated with the Song Dynasty again, while others thought that the conditions of the Song Dynasty were too harsh, and that it would only be self-inflicted humiliation to negotiate peace again, so they resolutely opposed it. Li Renxiao couldn't make up his mind for a while, and when he was at a stalemate, someone suddenly came to report that Xiangguo had to enter the DPRK to participate.

"Yu Yang Shuai, this is the last group, and now the residents of the city, except for the old and young children, have all been expelled from the city."

In fact, Yang Yan, Zhao Yueru and others were watching from the city, Yang Yan nodded to the soldier who reported the incident, and said, "I know, you go down to rest first." ”

In fact, after learning that the Jin army aided the Western Xia, Yang Yan was also clear, and it was not suitable for the Great Song Dynasty to completely break with the Jin State at present, and the 30,000 Jin army led by the monk Wanyan Chen was not comparable to those generals in the Western Xia, although the Song army had more than 100,000, but the real combatable soldiers were actually less than 70,000, and if they fought hard with the Jin army, the gains outweighed the losses. Moreover, although the Song army has penetrated deep into the territory of Western Xia, it is not ready to fight a protracted war after all, and if it continues for a long time, it will be very unfavorable to the Song army.

In the places occupied by the Song army, although Yang Yan strictly forbade soldiers to harass the local people and trade fairly, in the eyes of the local residents, the Song army was still an aggressor, so it was still full of hostility to the Song army. Although there was no large-scale resistance in the face of the powerful military might of the Song army, sporadic resistance still occurred from time to time, and maintaining local security also involved considerable energy of the Song army.

Therefore, Yang Yan decided to expel all the people from Shatuo, Yingli, Xishou Baotai Military Division, Jing'an Military Division and other places from the city, on the one hand, it is more conducive to the current management of these places by the Song army, and on the other hand, it is also to drive all the people to the areas around Xingqing Prefecture, so as to increase the pressure on the Western Xia court.

Therefore, although he knew that it was morally unjustifiable to do so, in order to be able to end the battle against Western Xia a year ago, he could only do so, so before Yang Yan launched an attack this time, Yijing made such a decision. However, Yang Yan finally left some Sheland, stipulating that residents under the age of 50 and under 15, or who were sick, could stay in the city and not be expelled from the city. In addition, the residents who were expelled from the city were also given 15 days' food for each person, on the one hand, out of morality, and on the other hand, to ensure that the residents who were expelled from the city could continue to walk to the area around Xingqing Province.
