After defeating the rebels, after reaching Tianming, Wanyan Fushou and Zhang Hu discussed the matter of cleaning up the mess, and also received the full support of the queen Wanyan Ruixian. So the two first ordered in the name of the crown prince to implement military management in the middle capital, while cleaning up the battlefield last night, on the other hand, to stabilize the order of the middle capital, and to search for the remnants of the rebels in the city, and at the same time to recruit other officials who did not participate in the rebellion left in the middle capital, and declare the crimes of Yan Zongzheng and others. And he sent people out of the city to find out the movements of the rebels.

Knowing that this rebellion was not over, the spies came to report the next day, and Wanyan Zongzheng and others led more than 20,000 troops to kill back to the central capital.

It turned out that after withdrawing from the central capital, Wanyan Zongzheng led the rebels to Damu Mansion, wanting to take refuge in Bai Yanjing, who was stationed in Datong, and Nazhi happened to meet the responding men led by Po Sa and Bai Yanjing on the way, with a total of more than 27,000 troops. So Wanyan Zongzheng discussed with Po Sa and Bai Yanjing, and decided to immediately return to Zhongdu and attack Zhongdu again.

Wanyan Fushou, Zhang Hu, Wuyan Tuochi, Han Leming and others were also taken aback when they heard this news, and they couldn't imagine that even generals like Po Sa and Bai Yanjing, who held military power, also participated in the rebellion, and now they actually came to attack Zhongdu again. As soon as everyone discussed, now that order had just been restored in Zhongdu, the people's hearts were unstable, and most of the military horses in the city had lost most of them, in this case, it was not suitable to fight a decisive battle with the rebels, so everyone decided to withdraw all the men and horses to Zhongdu and defend them with the help of the city wall. At the same time, he sent someone to the south immediately, informed Yan Changzhi, and asked him to return to the army to rescue Zhongdu immediately.

At this time, Wanyan Changzhi was arranging in Dengzhou to guard against the counterattack of the Song army, and he also expected that Yang Yan would never stop there, and would definitely take advantage of the situation to launch a counterattack, and even carry out another Northern Expedition, so he had to prepare early.

The defense line of the Jin army is still divided into two lines, the east line is also the core of Suzhou and Pizhou, and the west line is centered on Dengzhou and Tangzhou, and the northern expedition of Yue Fei in the tenth year of Shaoxing (40 years) is based on Deng and Tang states, and the northern expedition of the Great Song Dynasty in the third year of the main road (8 years) is to take Suzhou first. Therefore, as long as these two fronts can be held still, they will not be afraid of the counterattack of the Song army. However, it is now the midwinter season of November, and the Song army will carry out the Northern Expedition after February of the following year, so these three months will be the construction of the Jin army's defensive line.

However, at this moment, Wanyan Changzhi received an urgent message from Zhongdu, and only then did he know that there was a rebellion in the court. After reading the urgency, Wan Yan Changzhi's face changed greatly, and a mouthful of blood spurted out. was only frightened by the fact that Fusan Zhongyi, Shi Mo Yanshan, Pu Cha Dingzhu and others were in a panic.

Fusan Zhongyi hurriedly went to invite the imperial doctor to come, at this time Wanyan Changzhi waved his hand and said: "Fusan Aiqing, no need, I just vomited a mouthful of blood in a hurry, in fact, it is not a big problem, there is no need to alarm the imperial doctor." You should retreat first, and I will rest for a while, but the matter of the rebellion in Zhongdu must be kept strictly secret, and the soldiers and other generals must not know about it. ”

Fusan Zhongyi, Shi Mo Yanshan, Pu Cha Dingzhu and others all nodded at this time, and said, "The ministers are respectful." ”

In fact, Wan Yan Changzhi is only forty years old this year, and he is in the prime of life, and he has superb skills and energy. Although the military affairs have been busy for a period of time, it is by no means exhausting to vomit blood. It's just that Daikin has no choice but to make a Northern Expedition this time, fundamentally speaking, it is to bet on Dajin's national fortunes, and if it succeeds, Daikin can get rid of the predicament of being attacked by the enemy on his back and create a good environment for future development, and failure means that Daikin has lost the initiative since then, and can only survive under the attack of Song Meng, constantly weakened, and until he dies.

Although the Jin army did not suffer a large-scale defeat, the result of the war ended with the failure of Dajin's Northern Expedition. For some time, he had been racking his brains, hoping to come up with a clever plan to reverse the current unfavorable situation and redeem the failure of the Northern Expedition. It's a pity that he thought about it and thought about it for several days before he couldn't come up with a good way.

Wanyan Changzhi even thought about it, and also learned from Yang Yan, to make a surprise expedition, and also attacked Jiankang, the capital of the Southern Song Dynasty, to change the situation of the war, but unfortunately there was a Yangtze River in front of him, which became an insurmountable natural danger, and also made the Jin army's surprise plan impossible to realize at all. Therefore, Yan Changzhi couldn't sleep for a few days, although his skills were profound, he was also exhausted.

And at this moment, he received the news of the rebellion in the capital, no less than giving Wanyan a dull stick, he couldn't help but be anxious, angry, and hateful, anxious that the Northern Expedition had failed, and now there was a rebellion in the middle of the court, it was really a house leak and overnight rain, the situation was getting worse and worse, and he was angry that he trusted Po Sa, Bai Yanjing and others so much, not only paid the military power, but also entrusted them with heavy responsibilities, I didn't expect them to betray themselves, hated Wanyan Zongzheng's gang was so disregarded of the overall situation, in the critical moment of Dajin, stabbed himself in the back. There was no way to vent his anger, and for a while, his blood was tumbling and he was angry, so a mouthful of blood spurted out.

However, after vomiting blood, Wan Yan Changzhi's heart was a little more relaxed, and after a while, his qi and blood calmed down, knowing that the situation had developed to this point, it was useless to be anxious, and the matter still had to be solved step by step. That's when I started to rethink my next step.

First of all, Zhongdu must be rescued, although the news of the rebellion in Zhongdu is strictly confidential and must not be leaked, but paper can't contain the fire after all, and sooner or later the matter will be revealed. Moreover, many soldiers' families are in Zhongdu, once the news comes, the army's morale will be shaken, so only by quickly quelling the rebellion in Zhongdu can the army's morale be stabilized immediately.

And the candidate for quelling the chaos can only rest assured if he leads the army back, and as soon as he leaves, only Wanyan Chen is left in the south, can he hold the entire south? You must know that the news of the rebellion will soon reach the Southern Song Dynasty, and with Yang Yan's ability, he will never let go of this opportunity, even if he plans to carry out the Northern Expedition after the spring of next year, he is afraid that it will start immediately in advance.

On the next day, Wanyan Changzhi received a battle report, and the Song army divided into two routes to attack Tangzhou. Wan Yan Changzhi smiled bitterly, Yang Yan's reaction was really fast, and he started to do it with the scriptures.

Wanyan Changzhi immediately ordered Shi Mo Yanshan to lead 20,000 horses to rescue Tangzhou. At the same time, he announced that he would return to Nanjing to sit in the town, and then secretly sent a secret order, and after the transfer, Monk Yan Chen rushed to Nanjing immediately to discuss with him.

Knowing that there was a civil strife in the Jin Kingdom, Zhao Chen couldn't help but be surprised and delighted, he didn't expect that there would be a rebellion in the Jin Kingdom when this Guan was built, it was like Providence wanted to help the Great Song Dynasty recover the lost land.

And the ministers of the Great Song Dynasty are also very excited, if there was some resistance to the Northern Expedition before, then at this time, no one is against the Northern Expedition, after all, in the current Great Song Dynasty, there is no real lord and faction, the difference is just a rapid advance and slow advance, and now everyone knows that a rainbow is a rare opportunity to put in front of the Great Song Dynasty.

Therefore, Yang Yan suggested that the imperial court should start the Northern Expedition immediately, and the proposal not to wait until after the beginning of the year to send troops must also be unanimously approved by Zhongshu Province. Zhao Chen, as His Royal Highness, ordered Yang Yan to take full responsibility for presiding over the use of troops in the Northern Expedition.

Of course, such a large-scale military operation cannot be accomplished by the Privy Council alone. The entire bureaucracy of the Great Song Dynasty also began to act.

However, fighting a war costs money, so Zhao Chen first issued an order to take out all the money in the treasury and the inner treasury, and collected a total of more than 9 million yuan, part of which was used as a reward for the meritorious soldiers of the Song army in the early stage, and part of it was also used as the first batch of expenses for the Northern Expedition. Then he decreed that the general economic system should be re-levied throughout the country, and that ten million yuan must be collected by the end of the year, and that this money should be used to pay for the Northern Expedition, except for a part of the reserve funds that must be kept in the state treasury.

After the decree of the reintroduction of the general economic system was handed down, it was not met with the same strong resistance as people imagined. The reason is quite ironic, not because the common people of the Great Song Dynasty supported the imperial court to carry out the Northern Expedition and recover the lost territory. Instead, it has long been accustomed to the imperial court setting up another name and adding taxes. Although the Great Song Dynasty has been striving to reduce the types of taxes, the result is the opposite, the more they are reduced, the more tired they are, and only after Zhao Chen implemented the mu tax law, all kinds of miscellaneous taxes have been completely eliminated. But it's not just four or five years. Therefore, the imperial court's re-collection of the general economic system money is too normal in the eyes of the people.

In addition, whether the imperial court carried out the Northern Expedition and regained the lost territory or not did not matter to the common people, all they cared about was whether their lives could continue. However, it is also thanks to Zhao Chen's succession to the throne, has been implementing the policy of reducing taxes and light taxes, recuperation, the burden of the people in the past seven or eight years has been reduced a lot, as long as they are willing to work hard and hard, no big accident, they can more or less have some savings, and they can also afford to pay the tax increase of the imperial court, and there will be no great resistance.

Therefore, except for a few areas, the collection of money from the general economic system in most areas of the entire territory of the Great Song Dynasty has been carried out relatively smoothly, and it has not been more than a month, although the money has not yet been delivered to Jiankang, judging from the feedback information from various places, the goal of collecting 10 million yuan within the year is completely possible.
