Chapter 722: Thousands of Rivers, Thousands of Mountains, Always Love

Immediately, the pretty face was angry, and he stretched out his hand to push the door, and there was a bang, and this sudden sound made Zhao Huan tremble in fright. When he saw that it was Chai Keyan walking in, he breathed a sigh of relief, but Chai Keyan didn't want him to feel better, pointed at Zhao Huan's nose and scolded angrily, "Zhao Huan, are you a man, the Jurchens have already fought outside Bianliang City, you don't want to think about how to stop the enemy, you actually hide here and sigh, if you are not a man, the county lord does not mind going to Zhao Kai." ”

Chai Keyan is a smart woman, he knows who Zhao Huan is the most jealous person in his life, not Zhao Ling or Zhao Ji, but his third brother Zhao Kai, because Zhao Kai has received much more attention than him as a prince since he was born. Chai Keyan doesn't mind being looked down upon by Zhao Huan, anyway, he is looking for a man, who is not looking for him, if he can tame Zhao Kai and cooperate with Zhao Kai, isn't it the same, but it is much more difficult to control Zhao Kai. But at the moment, Zhao Huan can't think of this, all he can think of and feel is the surging humiliation. In this life, he was pressed by the third brother Zhao Kai, and his woman also cuckolded herself, the more she thought about it, the more angry she became, she raised her head, stared at Chai Keyan fiercely, clenched her fists, and slammed it on the table, "What nonsense are you talking about, do I want a man to talk nonsense, Chai Keyan, I tell you, sooner or later you will pay the price." ”

Zhao Huan did not hide his hatred for Chai Keyan, he really hated this woman, in the East Palace back then, it was this woman who was mixed with Zhao Yougong, many people knew about it, and when they thought of it, they felt that they were a joke. Facing Zhao Huan's threat, Chai Keyan sneered, "Not bad." Finally a little bit of a man. It's good to be angry. Since you feel that you are a man, you should go and convene the ministers now, and as for the matter between you and me, when you are able, let's say this again! ”

Chai Keyan sneered and left, she didn't want to talk too much nonsense to Zhao Huan, the Jurchens came outside the city, she still had a lot of things to do. stimulated Zhao Huan. Chai Keyan went to find the emperor Zhao Fujin next, the elegant imperial garden, full of spring light, and the beautiful scenery sat the peerless emperor. Fourth Sister Zhao has matured, and she is no longer as casual as when she was young, so her smile is more precious. In the Great Song Dynasty, a woman of the age of Emperor Zhao Fujin could be regarded as an older leftover woman, but who can say what? Other women can't get married, she can't get married, maybe God is jealous of her looks. has a appearance comparable to Yang Wanran, but there is no Yang Wanran's convincing. Every time I have someone I like, my sweetheart dies, and he dies at the hands of his most respected and closest brother. A few years of scenery, but also a few years of psychological experience, today's Emperor Ji is so scheming that even Chai Keyan is a little jealous.

"Fourth sister, what is my sister looking for you today, you must know very well in your heart, right?" Chai Keyan bent down and sat beside Zhao Fujin, she felt that Zhao Fujin should understand the meaning of the words. Now the Jurchens are surrounded outside the city, and there are only more than 30,000 defenders in the city, relying on these people to defend Bianliang City, it is too difficult, so the best way is to summon the soldiers and horses of King Qin, but the soldiers and horses of King Qin have different thoughts, especially Song Jiang and Jiangnan soldiers and horses, most of them are Zhao Kai's people, and Zhao Kai will never risk letting his men and horses fight with the Jurchens.

Zhao Kai's people were eliminated, and the rest were the soldiers and horses of Yiyang Hou Liu Che, so they could only come to Zhao Fujin. Zhao Fujin can roughly guess Chai Keyan's intention, she is also in hesitation now, she doesn't want her uncle to get involved in the dispute in Bianliang City too early, this time the Jurchens are besieging the city as well as the last time, let the uncle lead the troops to come, in case the tired old man is defeated and killed, how can he go? The other people have such and such interests, only the uncle just wants to keep her Zhao Fujin, the more the uncle is like this, the more he doesn't want him to take risks, but the situation in Bianliang City is very dangerous, so he has to consider it.

"Sister Xin'er, do you think the Jurchens will leave this time like last time?" With a leisurely sigh, Zhao Fujin's face revealed a thick worry, as if thousands of sorrows were concentrated on her peerless face. Chai Keyan frowned slightly, today's fourth sister is not like the fourth sister Zhao in the past, she looks preoccupied. Chai Keyan didn't know how to answer, what was the purpose of the Jurchens, who could tell? Listening to the report of the spies, the Jurchens seem to have increased their troops again, not only did Wanyan Zonghan have 20,000 more soldiers and horses, but Wanyan Lou, the great talent of the clan, also led the soldiers and horses of Huining Mansion to the Yellow River crossing, that is to say, a day later, 130,000 Jinguo soldiers will gather outside Bianliang City, and Bianliang City has only tens of thousands of soldiers who can fight. The answer is yes, but it's hurtful.

"The barbarians have mobilized the army this time, and almost exhausted the country's troops, and it seems that they will not return easily. Therefore, if the fourth sister is for the good of the people of Bianliang, let the Marquis of Yiyang lead the soldiers and horses of Jinghu Road to help Tokyo! ”

Chai Keyan is sincere, for so long, she has never begged someone so softly, at least in Chai Keyan's opinion, she is fully capable of persuading Zhao Fujin, no matter what the fourth sister is, it is also for the good of Bianliang, for the good of the Great Song Dynasty, when the catastrophe comes, she will definitely abandon her previous suspicions and defend Bianliang City. Zhao Fujin lowered her chin and let the spring breeze beat her face, and her ears were still echoing Chai Keyan's words. The Jurchens have increased their troops, and there are more than 100,000 soldiers and horses near Bianliang City alone, how can Bianliang City be defended, unless Niu Gao will go all out to the east and start a decisive battle with the Jurchens, but without Ling Ge'er's order, will Niu Gao do this? In an instant, Chai Keyan got the answer he wanted, Bianliang City couldn't hold it no matter what, in that case, why let his uncle die?

Getting up, Zhao Fujin left his back to Chai Keyan, "Sister Xin'er, how much hope do you think Bianliang City can hold?" Hey, you go to the third brother, he is willing to live and die with Bianliang City at all costs, what is the little sister afraid of, if not, why should the little sister drag her uncle to die outside the city? Now, only my uncle is left, and my little sister doesn't want anything to happen to his old man! ”

Zhao Fujin's words were tantamount to giving Chai Keyan the clearest answer, watching Zhao Fujin go away blankly, Chai Keyan's eyes were a little more complicated, and she really couldn't see through Fourth Sister Zhao, she actually thought so. Chai Keyan will not go to Zhao Kai, and now His Royal Highness King Yun is probably not thinking about how to defend Bianliang. It's how to get out of Bianliang. Go and make yourself king somewhere else. As long as you can escape from Bianliang City. Tokyo City is broken, for this His Royal Highness King Yun, there is only good and no harm, it is best that the royal family is wiped out, so that no one will compete with Zhao Kai for the throne. Yun Wangfu, everything was as Chai Keyan imagined, Zhao Kai gathered his close ministers and discussed the escape plan. Although he has long left a way out for himself, the current situation is not optimistic. There is not much time left for him, the news of the Jurchen army increase is not a secret, if he really waits for the reinforcements of the Jurchen barbarians, and then Wanyan Zongwang relies on the numerical advantage to besiege Bianliang City to death, then he Zhao Kai will be unable to fly even if he has wings.

Li Bangyan had just suffered a blow, and his mental state was very poor, and now that the Jurchens were making such a fuss, he was even more worried, and now he couldn't wait to fly to Guanzhong to avoid trouble, but unfortunately His Royal Highness the King of Qin understood very clearly. wants him to act honestly and dare to leave without permission. There is no mercy for killing. Li Bangyan didn't want to die, seeing that everyone was silent, he said a little anxiously, "Your Highness, you can't wait any longer, without further ado, I'll leave tonight." ”

"Leaving tonight?" Zhao Kai was still a little hesitant, after all, he had lived in Bianliang City since he was a child, and every grass and tree here had deep feelings. Zhao Kai knew that his departure was not simply one or a few people missing, for Bianliang City, in a moment of crisis, a prince and his Royal Highness ran away as soon as possible, the impact was far-reaching, and the most important thing was morale.

"Let's go" Li Bangyan hesitated, looked at the other people in the room, felt not too relieved, took two steps forward, bent over and whispered, "Your Highness, think about it, if you escape from Bianliang now and rush to Yingtianfu, just wait for something to happen in Bianliang City, and then raise the banner, who can still block your way?" Your Highness, what have you been dormant for? There is a saying that no poison is not a husband, a good man, when it is broken, it will be broken, otherwise it will be chaotic! ”

Li Bangyan is very demagogic, his words can be regarded as scratching Zhao Kai's itch, how many years, isn't it to ascend to that throne, now that the opportunity has come, I can't let it go. The look in his eyes became more and more determined, and soon Zhao Kai nodded heavily. In the middle of the night, a rope fell from the east wall of Bianliang, and quietly, Zhao Kai and Li Bangyan left Bianliang City, and at this time, the worship department who was responsible for monitoring the Yunwang Mansion was still completely unconscious. The next day, Cao Bing felt that something was wrong, because it was the time of the court meeting early this morning, and he wanted to discuss how to retreat from the enemy, but when it came to the time, Zhao Kai, the king of Yun, still did not appear. At this time, Cao Bing felt that something was wrong, and although the person who monitored the Yun Wangfu said that the person had never left, he still decided to visit the Yun Wangfu in person. Before the time passed, Cao Bing led a team of forbidden troops to the Yunwang Mansion, and Huang Shang, who accompanied Cao Bing, frowned, he always felt that it was not a good thing to visit the Yunwang Mansion like this, who could guarantee that Zhao Kai, the king of Yun, would not be able to sit on that throne in the future? It's not a blessing or a curse to be offended like this, "Steward Cao, are you too careful?" ”

"I hope it's a certain family, hey, Brother Huang, at a very good moment, I should be conscientious, the county lord's eyes are like electricity, not so perfunctory" Cao Bing is willing to offend a prince deeply, it's just his duty, he has to be like this.

As soon as Cao Bing and Huang Sheng arrived, the master of the Worship Division, who was in charge of monitoring the Yun Wang's Mansion, walked out from the shadows, and Cao Bing asked with a deep brow, "His Royal Highness the Yun King has never left the palace from beginning to end?" ”

"Back to Cao Steward, that's true, now His Royal Highness King Yun is still in the study" After the man answered, let alone Cao Bing, even Huang Sheng frowned, Zhao Kai is not an iron man, how can he stay in the study all night. What's more, Zhao Kai is a person who pays attention to the taste of life, and it is impossible to stay awake all night and read and write letters in the study. Cao Bing's face became gloomy, and he turned his face to see that the person who spoke was a big mouth, "Fool, is it normal for His Royal Highness King Yun to stay in the study all night?" ”

Cao Bing didn't have the heart to scold, he quickened his pace, went straight to the study, kicked open the door, Cao Bing and Huang Sheng were stunned, there was indeed a person sitting in the room, and this person and Zhao Kai had a seven- or eight-point likeness, but it was just a likeness, this is definitely not Zhao Kai, look at this person's trembling appearance, how can there be a little bit of the momentum of a prince. Looking at the man, Cao Bing asked gloomily, "What about His Royal Highness King Yun?" ”

"Your Highness, Your Highness left last night, and said that he would come back at noon this day" The man was obviously so frightened that he couldn't even say a word. Cao Bing kept scolding his mother in his heart, and when he came back at noon, he came back with a fart.

Soon Zhao Huan and Chai Keyan knew about Zhao Kai. Then the news of King Yun's escape from Bianliang spread throughout the capital. For a time, the scolding of the Bianliang army and civilians came one after another. But the sequelae of Zhao Kai's escape were also revealed, that is, the morale of the Bianliang army and civilians was low, and their trust in the imperial court had fallen to the lowest point, and they were now worried that the court officials and the children of the imperial family would also secretly leave like Zhao Kai, the king of Yun. Zhao Kai's departure was a blow to the people of Bianliang, but it was a good thing for Wanyan Zongwang, and in the big tent outside the city, Wanyan Zongwang drank and laughed wildly. said proudly, "Yun Wang Zhao Kai, he is really a good friend of Ben Khan, haha!" ”

With the departure of Zhao Kai, soon more than 100,000 Jin troops surrounded the entire Bianliang City, and in the face of internal and external difficulties, Zhao Huan almost did not collapse, but fortunately, there was firewood to maintain the overall situation. Under the call of the imperial court, a large-scale conscription campaign began in Bianliang City, but the family was young and strong. All of them are responsible for defending the city, in order to achieve the purpose of recruiting troops. The court publicized the Jurchens as unforgiving, killing people like hemp. It took a lot of effort to get together 70,000 soldiers, but half of the 70,000 were untrained recruits, and the combat effectiveness can be imagined.

The task of Gongwei Bianliang fell to Tong Guan again, although he had great power, Tong Guan was not happy at all. Can these rabble resist more than 100,000 strong soldiers of the Jin Kingdom? Leading the army for many years, Tong Guan knows the importance of morale, if the morale is high, relying on the high walls of Bianliang City, the abundance of materials, and the seven or eight points to hold the city. If morale keeps being low, what's the use of adding 70,000 soldiers? So the top priority is how to inspire people, of course, the best way is to win, but how can this victory be so easy to fight?

At the same time, Tong Guan convened all the generals to discuss in Kaifeng Mansion, and in the face of Tong Guan's proposal, a group of generals were at a loss, and they wanted to win a battle in front of hundreds of thousands of Jin soldiers, which was not easy to talk about, and even a little whimsical. However, there are always gamblers in the world, and at this time, a gambler came out, and this person was Yao Pingzhong. Although it is difficult to win a battle at this time, if you can win, it will definitely have a bright future, and you will immediately become a leader in the army. Yao Pingzhong proposed a sneak attack at night, on the grounds that the Jurchens had just increased their troops and the soldiers were tired, and they would never have thought that our army would launch a sneak attack at a juncture when others had just completed the increase in troops. This plan is very bold, and once the plan of the sneak attack is discovered, none of the soldiers who left the city will come back. The plan was very risky, but Tong Guan still agreed to Yao Pingzhong's proposal, because there was no better idea than a sneak attack.

That night, Yao Pingzhong led 3,000 soldiers and horses to sneak out of the West Gate, this time Yao Pingzhong's target was the Jurchen had just settled the West Camp, the West Camp was the reinforcements of Wanyan Lou's room, these reinforcements had just crossed the Yellow River, they must be exhausted, and a sneak attack on the West Camp was also the most certain. Yao Pingzhong thought very well, but unfortunately he still didn't know about Wanyan Lou's room, Wanyan Lou's room was a hero of the Jurchen clan, although it was covered by the light of Wanyan Zongwang and Wanyan Zongbi, it did not affect his ability to lead troops. If Yan Zonghan and Wanyan Zongbi are sharp spears, then Wanyan Lou is the strongest shield. Wanyan Lou has a habit of leading the troops, that is, he likes to strike backwards, and always likes to put up a fence first, waiting for others to fight before making a move. Because of Wanyan Lou's habit of passive defense, he was also called "the first coward of the clan" by Wanyan Zongbi. If Yao Pingzhong had carefully understood Yan Lou's room, he would definitely give up attacking the West Camp, even if he had finished attacking Yan Zongwang's main formation, he would not have finished Yan Lou's room.

Since the camp, Wanyan Lou's room has been widely spread with secret sentinels, and now the soldiers are tired, and what they are most afraid of is the enemy's sneak attack. Maybe everyone thought that the army had just completed the increase in strength and its morale was strong, and the Song army would definitely not dare to come at this time. Normal thinking is true, but what if you run into a madman, a madman doesn't pay attention to common sense. The idea of Wanyan Lou Room was completely aimed at Yao Pingzhong, because at this time, Yao Pingzhong was a mad gambler who was fighting for his future.

The result of the incident can be predicted, Yao Pingzhong entered the West Camp, but he only entered it, and did not come out after entering, and more than 3,200 soldiers and Yao Pingzhong himself were all buried in the West Camp. Yao Pingzhong's entire army was annihilated, Tong Guan tried his best to hide the news, but he could hide it if he wanted to, before dawn, the Jurchens' letter of persuasion flew into Bianliang City, and at the same time Yao Pingzhong's head. Yao Pingzhong was defeated and killed, which was tantamount to adding insult to injury to Bianliang, who was already demoralized.

Chai Keyan was naturally angry, but she couldn't bear to blame Tong Guan, standing in Tong Guan's position, he really needed to take the risk of fighting, not to mention that now was not the time to settle accounts.

Hundreds of thousands of Jurchen soldiers and horses surrounded Bianliang to the death, and the encirclement was four days, and the Jurchen soldiers and horses did not attack the city at all in four days, but the more so, the more chaotic Bianliang City became. People's fear of the unknown is innate, in the face of the attack at any time, many people have lost their minds, the people in the city began to coax the food, Bianliang City is mixed with shouts and shouts every day, the original Song Dynasty is the most prosperous Bianliang, in a short period of time has become the most terrible dark place.

The Great Song Dynasty is still counting on the soldiers and horses of King Qin, especially the Dingguo army that is still waiting, these soldiers and horses should come quickly, as long as they come, the siege of Bianliang may be lifted. However, this kind of idea is impossible to realize after all, four days is enough time to do a lot of things, and the first thing Zhao Kai did when he entered the Ying Tianfu was to hold high the banner and establish a temporary imperial court, claiming to the outside world that it was to better fight against the Jurchens.

Bianliang City is really strong, even the heroic and warlike Wanyan Zongwang does not dare to say that he will definitely be able to take Bianliang, because he understands Bianliang, so he is more cautious. However, no matter how strong the fortress is, there will be a day when it will be breached, and Wanyan Zongwang has been waiting, waiting for the best opportunity. On the night of the sixth day of the siege, the opportunity finally appeared, for some reason, the east gate of Bianliang suddenly opened from the inside, and the soldiers and horses of the Jin State, who had already been ambushed outside, rushed into the east gate like a wasp.

It is naturally impossible to open the east gate by itself, because someone in the city has rebelled, and the disaster will cause Xiao Wall, who would have thought.

The ancient Bianliang City was not broken by the Jin Army, but it was destroyed in the hands of its own people, which has to be embarrassing.

The ancient Bianliang City has hundreds of thousands of troops besieging the city in time, and there are thousands of difficulties and dangers, but there are still tens of thousands of troops guarding it, even if Wanyan Zong wants to have the heavens to the sky, it is not so easy to swallow Bianliang in one go. Who would risk the world's condemnation and harm hundreds of thousands of people in Bianliang City? It's ridiculous to say, the person who opened the east gate of Bianliang turned out to be a guy named Guo Jing. Although Guo Jing claims to be a Taoist disciple, he has been living an ordinary life, and his name is earthly experience, and he feels the vicissitudes of life. Guo Jing has a mouth that can speak well, and he also has a hand of acrobatics, that is, ordinary magic techniques, but these techniques are tantamount to fairy spells in the eyes of the people of the Great Song Dynasty. Relying on a sharp mouth and a few tricks, Guo Jing became famous in Bianliang City, and soon overshadowed Lin Lingsu and Zhang Xubai.

No matter how Guo Jing is, he is a fake bull nose who walks the rivers and lakes, if no one gives him power, no matter how capable he is, let alone open the East City Gate. If you really want to talk about it, you have to blame Zhao Huan for this. Dragons give birth to dragons and phoenixes, and the sons of mice can make holes, which can really be said to be the end of the world. Zhao Huan is worthy of being Zhao Ji's own son, not only has his personality inherited a thoroughness, but even the habit of worshipping Taoism has also been inherited, Zhao Ji is known as the Emperor of Taoism, and our Majesty Zhao Huan is not far behind, although there is no Taoist number, but this interest in listening to Zen meditation is even more than that of Daddy Zhao Ji. Zhao Huan ascended the throne and urgently needed a national teacher, he couldn't find Zhang Xubai or Lin Lingsu, because in Zhao Huan's eyes, these two people were the cronies of Emperor Zhao Ji, in this case, the famous fake bull nose Guo Jing entered Zhao Huan's field of vision, Guo Jing entered the palace, relying on a hand of samadhi real fire, yellow paper ghost hunting quickly won Zhao Huan's trust.
