Chapter 174: Ambition
Yanjing Zhao Shu's mansion.
"Your Highness, the Limu family and the Li family have sent the eldest son of the clan to Yanjing, and some side branches of the two families have also entered the various state capitals. ”
"Since His Highness wiped out the Zhang family by thunder, all the families in Yanjing have become docile. ”
When everyone said this, their expressions were excited, one of the greatest forces in this generation is these families, they have a lot of wealth and manpower, and they have terrifying power, they are the objects of the government's reliance and defense, and they are also the most troublesome forces in the imperial courts of all dynasties.
"Your Highness, the Daimyo's Mansion has been occupied by the soldiers and horses sent by the imperial court, and a large number of defenses have been built along the Yellow River, which seems to be not to guard against the Jurchens, but to guard against us. ”
Jiang Kui saw everyone's joy, and coldly poured cold water, which made everyone's expressions condensed, and they looked at Zhao Shu, wanting Zhao Shu to show an attitude.
"Your Highness, now that our army is heading north, sniping at the Jurchens, the Qilin army in Yongzhou is coming in a steady stream, Yanyun is already in the hands of His Highness, but now that the Holy Lord is usurping the throne and taking power, he will definitely not be allowed to do anything with His Highness, and please ask Your Highness to advocate as soon as possible, so that we can rest assured!"
Hearing this, Zhao Shu understood that this was everyone forcing themselves to express their position, whether to be a stable prince or to compete for the dragon.
"His Royal Highness controls the elite soldiers of the world, and takes Yanyun Xiongzhou, rejects the Jurchen barbarians in the north, and suppresses the Mani rebellion in the south, which is the work of pacifying the four seas and recreating heaven and earth. This ∈▽ and other meritorious deeds are no longer rewardable, and there is no seal.
At present, the Son of Heaven is usurping the throne, imprisoning the first emperor, mutilating his siblings, and being unkind and unjust, and he can live on the throne of the Son of Heaven for a long time!"
Jiang Kui vibrated his arm, his expression was excited and impassioned, he was the first to follow Zhao Shu, and he knew the hardships of creating a foundation today, for fear that His Royal Highness's words would be wrong, and his subordinates would lose their sharpness.
Beishang Changru saw the expressions of these people. Knowing that he couldn't be silent, otherwise he would break with many ministers, so he stepped forward and said: "Your Highness is the son of the first emperor, the first emperor is imprisoned in the Yanfu Palace, and His Royal Highness is the son of benevolence and filial piety, how can you not save the first emperor."
It is to raise a volunteer soldier with His Royal Highness, clear the rebel thief, and welcome the first emperor!"
Zhao Shu saw everyone's demeanor, smiled and said nothing, and understood in his heart. If you are in your current position, you are afraid that you will be addicted to pleasure and not enterprising, and it will be difficult for people of insight to enter your command, and you should also express your position, at least give everyone a hope, and his eyes swept over everyone Ling Ran said: "Raise volunteers, clear the traitors, and welcome the emperor." It's just that today's plan is to spread to the Daimyo's Mansion by Fu Yanyun, Fu Yanyun, and the Wubao Mansion system was sent to Zhang Jue and Wenrenda to lead the Wubao Mansion soldiers to seize Hejian Mansion and Zhongshan Mansion. Blockade the imperial court soldiers and horses to the south!"
"No!"
Hearing Zhao Shu's words, everyone's expressions were shocked, Zhongshan and Hejian were important military towns, and they were also the fortresses of the Great Song Dynasty to defend against the northern barbarians. With these two places in your hands, you can go south and enter Bianliang at any time. Take over the world. The candidate for this soldier is even more good, Zhang Jue is a Liao general, Wang An, who took refuge under the prince, was almost killed, he must not have the slightest good impression of the prince, and even the civil officials of the entire Great Song Dynasty do not have a trace of awe, Wen Renda is a person of Yanyun, only Zhao Shu and no court in his eyes,
The two of them have no connection with the Great Song Dynasty, and if they want to go south, they must be two tigers.
Around Gubeikou, a huge Wu fort appears around the checkpoint, one by one Wu fort towers, these Wu forts gather not far from each other, with ten Wu forts as a guard, on weekdays, a large number of people in Gubeikou live in Wu forts, when the war is going on, mutual support, cooperation, grain, grass and materials are also gathered in these Wu forts, foolproof.
The war between Wubao and Wubao, and the support between the first guard and the first guard, are like a big net firmly netting Yanjing.
When the Jurchen army came to attack Gubeikou, it was also the chief trainer of these Wu forts who led the militia in Wu forts to resolutely resist, which gave Han Shizhong a lot of time to rescue.
At this time, all these people became the reinforcements of Han Shizhong's army at this time, transporting grain, grass and materials.
A large number of Wubao from Yanjing to Gubeikou also assumed the responsibility of carrying grain, grass and materials.
With the militia in Wubao, a large number of strong bows and crossbows, gunpowder, earth-shaking thunder, gasoline and other sharp weapons, Han Shizhong sealed the Jurchens north of Gubeikou.
It's just that the Jurchens have gathered too many troops, their strength is strong, and the battle is extremely fierce, this kind of consumption is almost equal, and Han Shizhong's only strength is that he has a large number of Wubao and Yanyun people behind him.
"General Zhang, there are too many masters in this Jurchen army, and they are also extremely fierce, in addition to the Jurchens, there are also a large number of people with white skin and yellow hair, these people are tall, what kind of monster can't be!"
"The fart monsters, some of them are from the Western Regions, and some of them are Qiang people, keep the stockade for me, if you let the Jurchens rush into the pass, I will kill you!"
Zhang Xian scolded and instructed the soldiers to clean up the corpses and strengthen the stockade, a situation that was commonplace around Gubeikou, and the shouts of killing continued.
Behind Zhang Xian, in the huge Wu forts, countless militiamen carried arrows, crossbows, and gunpowder.
The militia in these Wu forts were like ants, converging towards Gubeikou, and began to cast new Wu forts in Gubeikou, and then sealed the place.
Han Shizhong personally sat here, sniping at the Jurchens with elite soldiers, and fought extremely hard, but he also held this place firmly.
Han Shizhong came cautiously quickly, and the marching array was also mostly cautious, it can be said that he was a camp step by step, no matter how the Jurchens used their tactics, they all sat upright in Gubeikou, standing still, and the Jurchens fought extremely hard, so they had to draw troops from other places to gather in Gubeikou and attack Han Shizhong, because once the Wu Fort building in Gubeikou was successful, it would be completely sealed here.
Outside the Jurchens' strong attack on Gubeikou, Wanyan Zonghan attacked Taiyuan Mansion, but he was also entangled here.
Lost the containment of Wanyan Zongwang, and there was no need to go to King Qin of Bianliang, all the forces of the Western Army were concentrated here, and the Seed Master Dao led 100,000 elite soldiers back to Guanzhong.
Wanyan Zongwang entered Guanzhong and fought towards Taiyuan, the two Jurchen armies completely disrupted the entire Guanzhong, and also violated the interests of the Guanzhong army.
At this time, Zhao Huan of Bianliang had to concentrate a large amount of materials to support Kansai.
A large number of Jurchens were pinned down in Gubeikou and Guannei, and the troops in other places became thinner and thinner, and the army led by Wu Jie followed the area of the ancient Great Wall and approached Luanyang of the Jurchens, almost overwhelming the enemy along the way.
This Luanyang is backed by the Great Wall, and the Panjiakou, Xifengkou and Tiemen Pass in the territory are all important checkpoints.
This is also an important town of the Jurchens in Yanyun, originally entrenched in tens of thousands of troops, but with the southward movement of Wanyan Zongwang and the Battle of Gubeikou, the troops here have become much weaker, with only thousands of Jurchens and 30,000 Zahu.
Wu Jie's troops were directed at the important town of Luanyang, but after arriving here, he did not rush to attack, but built Wu forts around them, gathered all the people and troops around Luanzhou in Wu forts, and took a step by step posture to oppress the Jurchens in the city.
Wu Jie also saw that the Jurchens could not draw troops for a while, so he used the shape of Wu Fort to gather the scattered people and supplies together, and at the same time sent cavalry to sweep around and lure the Jurchens out of the city for a decisive battle. (To be continued......)
