Chapter 838: Time Falls
If the Jurchens in Jizhou City did not retreat, they could still say that Yan Zongwang was bluffing, but the Jurchens took the initiative to withdraw from Jizhou City, and they didn't even leave anyone to watch the gate, and the intention couldn't be more obvious. Of course, Yeluchun can send troops to take advantage of the situation to recapture Jizhou City, and I believe that Jizhou City will be obtained unscathed, but what's the point of doing that? As soon as the water comes, whether it is Jizhou City or Nanjing, it will have to become a piece of water. Last year, it snowed heavily, and after the ice and snow melted, it all entered the Yongji River, and after the beginning of spring, it rained a few times, and the water level of the Yongji River rose. Flooding Nanjing City with the water of the Yongji River, or in the spring, before it is released, is it definitely a joke, the water of the Yongji River is enough to flood the city of Nanjing? But Xuan is different from seven years, the water of the Yongji River is sufficient, it is really going to be dug up, and it can rush into the Yongding River from north to south.
The room was very quiet, Ye Luchun's face was pale, suddenly, he grabbed the chair next to him and slammed it on the column of the hall, with a click, sawdust flew, and a few pieces of wood chips also cut the back of his hand, "Ah God, are you bent on going against me Ye Luchun, why do you want to do this, thief old thief thief God", Ye Luchun's face was hideous and terrifying, his eyes were bulging, his hands were clenched, and he let the blood flow. The hoarse cry was filled with too much resentment and unwillingness.
Looking back on the past, Yelu Chun has too many things that cannot be forgotten, when Yelu Hongji succeeded to the throne, his life was in turmoil, and he continued to endure it, waiting for the opportunity of the Liaodong rebellion, taking this opportunity to cultivate power little by little, and finally entered the Xijin Mansion and got rid of the shackles of Yelu Hongji in Shangjing. At that time, he was full of spirits and felt that his own spring had come, and everything that followed was as he thought, and his power continued to expand. Almost put his hand into Dading Mansion, and Yelu Hongji had nothing to do about it, but on the Jungar grassland, everything changed, or rather, from the day he met Zhao Yougong again. Fate began to play a joke on him. For many years, I was bent on marrying Yelu Nanxian, this woman was amazingly talented, noble, and powerful. Maybe Yelu Hongji also wants this woman, but most of them are just greedy for beauty and jealous of the people, but Yelu Chun is different, he knows deeply how much energy this woman has, and he has this woman. can be in the palm of more than 100,000 B room troops, and Dading Mansion can also go down without a fight. It's a pity, all this was shattered because of Zhao Yougong's appearance, Yelu Nanxian, that woman actually chose that Han person.
"Abominable and hateful" roar came from the house, and Han Bianqiao and some generals in the army had been guarding outside, hearing that the situation was a little wrong, for fear that something would happen to Ye Luchun. Quickly ran in. Ye Luchun only scratched a little skin on the back of his hand, and it was fine. But at the moment, the mental state of His Royal Highness the King of Qin Jin is really worrying, his hair is a little messy, and his eyes are abrupt, as if he is crazy.
"King, please put aside the wrath of the thunder for the time being, now that Wanyan Zongwang has made up his mind to dig the Yongji River, I should respond in advance, if I stay here. There is no hope at all" Han Fangyu was anxious, his words were earnest, and his face was a little unwilling, "King, the last general pleads." Quickly return to Yizhou, and then make plans, this Nanjing City can not be defended, there is a way to leave the green mountains without worrying about no firewood and ask the king to make a decision as soon as possible."
Han Bianqiao is as unwilling as Ye Luchun, why is he so unlucky? The water level of the Yongji River has been very low for nearly a hundred years, and the water potential has eased, but the water level has skyrocketed this year. Listening to Han Panxiao's words, Ye Luchun's body trembled, and he sat down in the chair behind him, it was not the first time he heard this, leaving Qingshan without worrying about no firewood, hehe, how long can he Ye Luchun wait, he is not young anymore, but what Han Panqian said is right, he can still struggle when he leaves Nanjing, but staying in Nanjing can only become the soul of Wanyan Zongwang's knife. Gradually, Ye Luchun's eyes showed a bit of hideousness, hehe, Wanyan Lao Er wants Nanjing City, okay, give it to him, but it can only be a lonely city, clenched his right fist, did not raise his head, and said gloomily, "Pass the order, take away all the baggage, burn everything that can't be taken away, and don't take any of the people in the city." ”
didn't leave anything for Yan Zongwang, leaving his mouth to eat. Ye Luchun did this, which can be regarded as stabbing Wanyan Zongwang's key point, what does Wanyan Zongwang lack most? Of course, there is a shortage of food, and he is so insistent on going south, but Ye Luchun left hundreds of thousands of mouths in Nanjing City, Wanyan Zongwang must find a way to solve the problem of eating, otherwise these hundreds of thousands of people will riot. People, once they are about to starve to death, they are not afraid of anything, of course, Wanyan Zongwang can also take the initiative to slaughter these hundreds of thousands of mouths, but that will not benefit him at all, Wanyan Zongwang wants to rule Nanjing City, not go to Nanjing City to fight grass valley, so Yeluchun's strategy is very poisonous.
When the order of the garrison was conveyed, the Liao soldiers in the city became a group of outright mad dogs, they burned and looted in the city, as long as they used for food, gold, silver, jewelry, etc., all the robbing, if anyone dared to stop, the scimitar in their hands was not polite at all. For a time, the ancient Nanjing Xijin Mansion became a hell, and the Liao soldiers slowly withdrew from the Xijin Mansion for two days, in the face of all this, Wanyan Zongwang saw it in his eyes, and was angry in his heart, Ye Luchun, this son of a bitch, was really ruthless, most of the people living in Nanjing City were Khitan people, and he could do it. Someone suggested that Wanyan Zongwang take advantage of the situation to pursue and kill, but Wanyan Zongwang, who had always left no room for people, refused, and he rarely showed kindness and withdrew to Fangshan by Yeluchun and tens of thousands of soldiers and horses.
Wanyan Zongwang did this, which is somewhat puzzling, but for Wanyan Zongwang himself, he felt that it was necessary to do so, he did not send troops this time to exterminate Yeluchun, Yeluchun is a sick tiger waiting to die, it is the same when he fights, the most important thing is to take Xijin Mansion and open up the main road to the Great Song Dynasty in the south. Moreover, Wanyan Zongwang also needs Ye Luchun to complete his next plan, you must know that now the Great Song Dynasty and Dajin still have an alliance, and this alliance is still known to everyone, as an ally, take the initiative to occupy Nanjing and attack the Great Song Dynasty, who will dare to deal with Dajin in the future? Therefore, not only to fight the Great Song Dynasty, but also to find a reasonable reason, and these fell on Ye Luchun.
On April 18, the city of Nanjing officially changed hands, and now all the soldiers and horses of Yeluchun have retracted to the west of Fangshan, so as long as Wanyan Zongwang is willing, he can wave his troops into Xijin Mansion at any time. What is surprising is that Wanyan Zongwang did not rush to do this, and gave the order. All subordinates must strictly restrain their subordinates, and must not enter Nanjing City for half a step, in addition, the original Jizhou City, Shunzhou City defenders all withdrew to Danzhou in the north. Wanyan Zongwang's order really made countless generals of the Dajin Kingdom scratch their heads, our Khan King. If you don't occupy the city of Dahaozhou, you still take the initiative to let out the city that has been beaten down, and your head is kicked by a donkey, or is it a woman who is dazed and delirious?
No matter how dissatisfied the generals of the Dajin Kingdom were, a military order was a military order, and no one dared to disobey the order personally issued by His Royal Highness the Khan, so within two days. Nearly 30,000 troops of the Dajin Kingdom withdrew from Jizhou City and Shunzhou City one after another, and they did not commit any offense against Nanjing City.
Is Wanyan Zongwang stupid? No, he is not stupid at all, he can even be said to be extremely smart, he just wants to take the initiative to give Nanjing City and other places to the Song people, and give these cities to the Great Song Dynasty, which can be regarded as fulfilling the covenant, if anything happens in the future. Then it's not a breach of the contract of the Dajin Kingdom, right? Moreover, although he wanted Nanjing City. But I don't want to spend food at this time to feed those hundreds of thousands of mouths, so it's better to let the Great Song Gang help. The Great Song Dynasty was very rich, but there was no shortage of grain, so after the Song army occupied the city of Nanjing, it would definitely transport grain to supply the people of Nanjing. When the time is almost up, it is good to retake Nanjing, when the time comes, not only will Nanjing City be their own, but also have a batch of grain for nothing, isn't it beautiful?
The Great Song Dynasty also had an army to defend the city? Hehe. Wanyan Zongwang has never put those weak Song soldiers in his eyes, as long as he wants to, he can defeat those so-called Liangjing forbidden army at any time, not to mention, the water of the Yongji River is indispensable, if it can drown Yeluchun, it can't drown the forbidden army of the Great Song Dynasty?
Since Wanyan Zongwang has decided to be a good person, he will make a big show, and he will write the world on the same day, and give Nanjing and other places to the Great Song Dynasty openly, so it is really shocking to the world. If you want to say what is the greatest wish of the official family of the Great Song Dynasty and even several generations of emperors, of course, it is to recover the sixteen states of Yanyun, especially when the official Zhao Ji of the dynasty, who has been forced by his nephew to be anxious over the years, he wants to recover the sixteen states of Yanyun and fight for the prestige lost. Because if the Dajin Kingdom really wants Nanjing, and does not let go, the Great Song Dynasty has no way, how fierce the soldiers and horses of the Dajin Kingdom are, Zhao Ji knows, the tens of thousands of forbidden troops of the Great Song Dynasty are still defeated and won less in the face of Liao soldiers who are less than their own, and many times they are beaten to the ground, but the soldiers and horses of the Dajin Kingdom can chase the ass of the Liao soldiers and beat them, so a comparison can be seen. When Dajin Guo's text came to Bianliang City, Zhao Jike was really happy, and on the same day, he asked people to inform the whole city of Bianliang to celebrate. Of course, the happiness of the Zhao official family has also brought a lot of benefits to a person, and this person is Tong Guan, the Xuanfu envoy of Hebei Road. Originally, Tong Guan cooperated with the attack on Nanjing, but there were many defeats and few victories, especially after Ye Luchun reoccupied Nanjing, he plundered everywhere, and the soldiers and horses of the Great Song Dynasty were defeated, and now Zhao Guanjia is trumpeting how brave the forbidden army is to fight, and how powerful it is to capture the city, in short, look at the text drafted by Zhao Guanjia, it is simply said that the soldiers and horses of the Great Song Dynasty are invincible in the world, and the city of Nanjing is completely recaptured by the soldiers and horses of the Great Song Dynasty in one go, so the recapture of the sixteen states of Yanyun is the credit of the forbidden army of the Great Song Dynasty, and it is the glory of his son of heaven of the Great Song Dynasty. Zhao Ji is so promoted, can he blame Tong Guan again? If you still blame Tong Guan, won't it become a slap in the mouth?
As others expected, when Tong Guan was busy letting people occupy Jizhou and other places, an order was issued to Nanjing, ordering Tong Guan to return to Beijing and reward him for his meritorious deeds. Tong Guan stood at the head of Nanjing, looked at the distant south, sighed silently, raised his hand and stroked a few beards, his face was full of self-deprecating smiles, hehe, under the whole world, he can still be rewarded for his meritorious deeds after defeating the battle, I'm afraid he Tong Guan is the first person in the past, right? The Great Song Dynasty celebrated the whole country, but Tong Guan, as the commander of the Northern Expedition, was not as optimistic as the people in Bianliang City, he had some understanding of Yan Zongwang, the second prince of the Jin Kingdom was scheming, insidious and vicious, a typical unprofitable lord, he took the initiative to give up Nanjing and other places, would it be a good thing? Moreover, there are a lot of messes in Nanjing City now, first of all, there is a shortage of food, although there is surplus food in the army, but it will not last long, and it is necessary to mobilize food to Nanjing City as soon as possible.
He has been in charge of the army for so many years, Tong Guan's power in the army is incomparable, he walked at the head of Nanjing, and several commanders followed him respectfully. In fact, several commanders are also a little puzzled, the official family's behavior is obviously a good thing, but why is Tong Shumi's face sad. When he came to the corner of the battlement, the commander Fu Chenghuan stepped forward and asked, "Dashuai, the official family transferred you back to Beijing to discuss meritorious deeds, why are you still depressed?" ”
Tong Guan frowned, his eyes narrowed, his hand stroked the battlements, and said with a faint smile, "You guys, you are all too careless, and you don't want to think about who Wanyan Zongwang is, do you think that the second prince of Wanyan is like a compassionate master?" If Yan Zongwang took the opportunity to blackmail something from our Da Song, he wouldn't feel strange, but he didn't ask for anything, and he was so generous, Ben Shuai felt uneasy. ”
Tong Guan was really uneasy, but he just couldn't figure out what Wanyan Zongwang was going to do, maybe this was the most terrifying, right? Knowing that others have conspiracies, but they can't prevent it, and the most distressing thing is that Tong Guan can't and doesn't dare to say to Zhao Ji, now the official family has long been carried away by joy, isn't it to make the official family unhappy by saying these words?
Two days later, Tong Guan returned to Bianliang City, the next day at the court, in front of the civil and military officials, Yang Lian read out the holy message, saying that my Song Dynasty soldiers and horses were brave and good at fighting, conquering the city, and only then did they return triumphantly, but also thanks to Tong Guan's proper command, Tong Guan is hereby crowned as the privy envoy of the Privy Council, leading the Duke of Xu. Don't look at the actual position, it's just a sub-word, but there is a world of difference between the deputy privy envoy and the privy envoy, especially Xu Guogong, who is a big eunuch with Tong Guan, can be the prince of the country, which is simply the pinnacle of martial arts. Anyway, during the reign of Emperor Huizong, anything strange could happen. Tong Guan was naturally grateful, but he was very worried in his heart after all, just looking at the joyful face of Zhao Guanjia, he swallowed back the words when they came to his mouth.
On the same day, it was decided to feast the ministers in Genyue Garden, so the court meeting was quickly dispersed, Tong Guan did not leave in a hurry, he leaned on the inside of the palace gate and waited patiently for a person (to be continued. )
