(Thirty-eight) Qiao
"If your beloved doesn't help me guard the northwest, I will feel uneasy."
"I also hope that Aiqing can return to the northwest as soon as possible and firmly stop the Jin soldiers outside Taiyuan for me and the people of the Song Dynasty."
Because of the mighty force of millions of Qinwang troops, Zhao Huan was emboldened, and for the first time he realized the dignity of being an emperor of the Song Dynasty.
Therefore, Zhao Huan planned to break the contract temporarily in the land of three states.
Zhao Huan began to re-examine the throne at this precarious time.
No matter how chaotic he is, he is still an emperor.
Returning to the northwest three sentences in a row clearly shows the authority of the emperor. Qiao
Sun Ge sneered. When Zhao Huan said this, did he see Zhong Shidao's gray hair and senile appearance?
At this time, Zhongshi Dao himself was already over seventy years old.
If Jin Bing commits another crime, it is unknown whether the old general Zhongshi Dao can travel thousands of miles to serve the king again.
In this era when the average age is only forty or fifty, it is really rare for people to live seventy years old.
Just because Zhao Huan was confused does not mean that all courtiers were confused, including the Zhuhe faction.
They just want to survive and don't really want to die under the butcher's knife of Jin Bing.
"The official family, the old general Zhong, with his snowy hair and frosty hair, is really not suitable for traveling long distances continuously. Why don't we allow the old general Zhong to stay in Bianliang and do his best for the official family."
As we all know, Bianliang City needs a veteran general who is highly respected and can use troops like a god to stabilize the morale of the army.
In addition, the officials were so impatient that it was inevitable that the Northwest Army would be disappointed.
Zhao Huan frowned slightly, his eyes flashing with a faint light, filled with heart-stopping emotions.
Sunge pursed his lips, this fool, is he playing with imperial power now?
Die!
Stop living!
"Your Majesty, the veteran general has spent his whole life in the army, worked hard and achieved great results, and he should be allowed to enjoy his old age peacefully due to both emotion and reason." Qiao
This is the rare time when hundreds of officials in the court have unanimous opinions since the Jin army invaded the south.
Sunge noticed that the elder man of the Qin family moved his lips several times and his throat rolled, as if he wanted to speak, but in the end he fell silent.
Ever since he signed a city-wide alliance with the Eastern Front Army led by Wanyan Zongwang as a territorial envoy, the Qin family's eldest son has become increasingly taciturn.
While in the court, my thoughts often drift away.
If it weren't for the faint flames in his eyes that were blown by the wind in the wilderness, Sunge might have thought that the elder of the Qin family had become the lackey of the Jin man.
Where are you going, Mr. Qin family?
It can be said that the first half of his life and the second half of his life have completely different evaluations in history books. Qiao
Sunge looked away and sighed softly.
It seems that some things can be changed and some things can never be changed.
Zhao Huan, who was sitting on the dragon chair, looked increasingly unpredictable.
After several more pulls, Zhao Huan thought he had made the biggest concession and let Zhong Shidao stay in Bianliang City to take care of himself.
Yes, it is to take care of yourself.
Because Zhao Huan released the military power of Zhongshidao and explicitly ordered the Qinwang's divisions from all over the country to return to their bases as soon as possible and not to stay outside Bianliang City.
After doing all this, as if it was not enough, Zhao Huan deprived Li Gang of his position as prime minister and changed him to the Xuanfu envoy to Hebei Province, named Zongbing. In fact, he was pushed out of the court and away from Bianliang. Qiao
The sentence "Only creation brings power, only creation brings blessings, ministers have exclusive power, and it cannot last long" obliterated all the achievements of Li Gang during the defense of Tokyo.
Those who devoted their energy and passion to commanding the soldiers were rewarded with what Zhao Huan said was the "exclusive power of ministers".
After the disaster, Zhao Huan had forgotten that when Bianliang City in Tokyo was in danger, it was he who panicked and entrusted Li Gang with all the military affairs of Bianliang.
Li Gang did not disappoint and held on to Bianliang.
Although people have been demolishing bridges across rivers and taking out ladders from houses since ancient times, it is rare for them to turn against someone as quickly as Zhao Huan.
Could it be that if Wanyan Zongwang retreated to the north of the Yellow River, the Song Dynasty would be safe and sound?
To this day, Wanyan Zongwang is still waiting! Qiao
Waiting for Jin Bing's Western Front Army to take down the hard nut to crack in Taiyuan.
Zhao Huan insisted on going his own way, so Li Gang left Bianliang.
On the day of leaving Beijing, the eldest son of the Qin family secretly saw Li Gang off outside Bianliang City.
"Do you have any regrets?"
"No regrets!"
"Are you feeling chilled?"
"My heart is cold, but my blood is warm." Qiao
These two short questions and answers were like thunder exploding over the head of the Qin family's elder brother.
No wonder Mrs. Li asked him if his ambition could change.
It turns out that from beginning to end, he was not firm and pure enough.
However, he did not compromise thoroughly enough.
Between the two, he struggled and hesitated, getting himself stuck in the quagmire and unable to get out.
Can he turn back?
If he turns back, what will be waiting for him on the other side? Qiao
"Zuo Sijian, you have great talent. You will go further in your official career than me and Old General Zhong."
"Treasure each of us in the years to come."
"Just because we are powerless in these mountains and rivers does not mean that no one can take care of them in the future."
"Please give me advice and hope."
Smart people know everything at once, and Li Gang can naturally see the struggle of the Qin family's eldest son.
Are you hopeful?
Will there always be someone to clean up the country? Qiao
The eldest son of the Qin family looked at Li Gang's retreating figure and gritted his teeth. Let's try again.
Sunge followed behind the Qin family's eldest son and said silently, the famous general who looked up to the sky and roared with great ambition and wanted to clean up the old mountains and rivers died under the conspiracy of the imperial court and the trick of the emperor's selfish ministers.
I don’t know if the Qin family’s eldest son, who later held great power and became a highly respected minister, ever recalled the weakest and most sincere hope in his heart.
It is so tragic and ridiculous to go from being dedicated to saving the country to unexpectedly meeting someone who is dedicated to killing the country and saving the country.
Recently, the elder man of the Qin family rarely thinks of her.
Perhaps, before the elder man of the Qin family even noticed it, the balance in his heart had tilted.
After taking care of King Qin's division and those in charge of the army, Zhao Huan did not immediately strengthen his military equipment, but was thinking about Huizong who had fled. Qiao
He could not tolerate Huizong's activities in the southeast, let alone the emergence of a small court in the southeast.
Therefore, Zhao Huan immediately invited Song Huizong to return to Bianliang and continue to be the emperor without any worries.
Song Huizong wanted to ignore it, but Zhao Huan invited him three times and four times, which was known all over the world.
In April of the same year, Song Huizong, with a dark face, reluctantly returned to Bianliang City with his most favored ministers.
Once in Bianliang, Zhao Huan put Huizong under house arrest in disguise, and furiously killed Cai Jing, Tong Guan and others. It was rare for the court to show some clarity.
However, the good times did not last long.
The ambition of the golden man Langzi was undying, and Zhao Huan, who was extremely stupid, did not let the troops of King Qin from all over the country rush to help Taiyuan at that time. Qiao
After holding on for more than 250 days, Taiyuan was finally broken by the Western Front Army led by Wanyan Zonghan, and Taiyuan fell.
At this point, the Jin soldiers formed an encirclement from the east and west, and sent troops again, aiming directly at the Song Dynasty on the grounds that the Song Dynasty had broken its promise and betrayed the alliance under the city.
Zhao Huan, who had just been a stable emperor for half a year, was panicked again. The shocking momentum of the millions of diligent kings half a year ago was still in his mind.
