"Your Majesty, please give me the plan to quell the army!"
On the afternoon of April 11th, the eighth year of Xuanhe reign of the Song Dynasty, a military meeting was underway in the Chongzheng Hall of the Kaifeng Palace.
Just two days ago, the Song Dynasty court and the Jin people who besieged the city finally reached a more formal peace agreement. The Song Dynasty court fully recognized the treasonous mercy agreement "made by Zhao Kai."
Promise to pay three million yuan a year, including one million each in silver, money, and silk! Agree to cede all the land on Yanshanfu Road; agree to marry Emperor Roufu to Wanyan Zongbi, the fourth prince of the Jin Kingdom, as his official wife (Zongbi's wife died a year ago); agree to pay a one-time reward of 500,000 yuan to the Jin soldiers, of which 300,000 silver, 200,000 money, and 200,000 silk; he also agreed to hand over Kang Wang Zhao Gou and Dazai Zhang Bangchang as hostages and send the Jin soldiers northward.
Yesterday, 800,000 yuan worth of goods, Zhang Bangchang, who was crying to death, and Zhao Gou, who was trying not to faint from crying, were all sent to the Jinren's Chenqiaoyi camp as promised.
But early this morning, the gold thief outside Kaifeng Mansion City had disappeared without a trace!
The traffic between Kaifeng Mansion and the outside world has been completely restored. Except for the Chenqiaoyi area in the north of the city, there are no gold thieves in the area. There are no gold thieves in other directions.
This shows that the golden thief has fallen into the trap of the Song Dynasty monarchs and retreated from Kaifeng Mansion.
After the news spread in Kaifeng City, the whole city was naturally jubilant and encouraged!
The main fighting faction in the imperial court was of course even more powerful. As soon as the political discussion in the Chongzheng Hall began today, Li Gang, Yu Wenxuzhong, Wu Min, Geng Nanzhong, and the prince Zhao Huan began to shout and kill - among which Li Gang and Yuwen Xuzhong were the real main battlers.
Prince Zhao Huan only fought because Zhao Kai advocated peace (a misunderstanding!), while Wu Min and Geng Nanzhong fought to support Zhao Huan.
And the original capitulationists, such as Cai You, Tong Guan, Li Bangyan, Bai Shizhong (although Cai Tong and Li Bai are not part of the same party, they are all cowards) and others now do not dare to make peace loudly - they are now I’m so cowardly that I don’t dare to make peace! The imperial army and militia in Kaifeng City (excluding the Long-Legged Western Army) were all in high morale, and the common people and gentry were all fighting, as if the gold thief had really been defeated by them.
What's more, the imperial students trapped in Kaifeng City by the gold thieves are now planning to write a letter to Fu Que to impeach King Zhao Kaiyan and the crime of harming the country.
In this case, the four treacherous ministers Cai Tong and Li Bai naturally had to fight to protect themselves.
So today there was no one in the Chongzheng Palace to make peace, and there was a lot of shouting and fighting... Among them, Li Gang, who was the most enthusiastic, even proposed to personally supervise the army's expedition, and also asked Zhao Ji to give him the Pingrong and Ten Thousand Formation Maps hidden in the palace. use!
Pingrong and Ten Thousand Formations!
It was painted by Emperor Taizong of the Song Dynasty. It is highly collectible and is more than a hundred years old. How could it be easily taken out for people to play with? If something goes wrong, can you, Li Gang, afford the compensation?
Zhao Ji frowned deeply and thought for a moment, "Li Qing, the original version of the Pingrong and Ten Thousand Formations has been stored in Longtu Pavilion for many years. It is inconvenient to take it out... Why don't I give you a copy?" Bar!"
He is talking about giving, not borrowing. The idea is to give it to Li Gang as a family heirloom - a painting by Song Huizong, which must have inscriptions and annotations written by Song Huizong himself. Of course, Song Huizong's double dragon seal must also be stamped on it, and then framed and given to Li Gang.
This masterpiece needs to be passed down, and when it is taken to an auction house in the 21st century, it might even fetch 1 billion!
This is a treasure!
Of course Li Gang was happy to have such a treasure, and he quickly saluted and said: "I thank your Majesty for the gift. This warrior will use the formation given by your Majesty to defeat the golden thief!"
Zhao Ji nodded and thought: I must draw well... If I draw a little more like it, I will use the technique of iron line and white drawing to draw, which can be considered as an effort to resist gold!
However, after thinking about it for a while, he still felt uneasy, so he asked Tong Guandao: "Tong Guan, you have been in the army for a long time and you know the soldiers well. Do you think I can keep everything safe by setting up the formation with tens of thousands of soldiers and soldiers before me?" ?”
After hearing this question, Tong Guan felt a headache.
This map of the Pingrong and Ten Thousand Formations was originally created by Taizong. Now that the officials are looking at it, it is also requested by Li Gang, the Prime Minister. How could it be useless?
It can be said that it is useful...
Tong Guan thought for a while and had no choice but to bite the bullet and said: "Your Majesty, the Pingrong and Ten Thousand Formations are of course useful, but they are difficult to deploy... At least 110,000 infantry troops and 30,000 horse troops are needed to deploy them!"
Zhao Ji said to himself: "There are 110,000 infantry troops, but there seems to be no 30,000 horse troops..."
Li Gang said: "Your Majesty, the cavalry troops in Kaifeng City are not small, with 14,000 to 5,000 people. In addition, the Western Army Brigade has arrived in the west of Kaifeng City, and there must be many cavalry troops among them. So we gathered 110,000 infantry troops There is no problem with the 30,000-horse army, and we can even gather a few more troops... And once this formation is completed, our army will be invincible, and at least we can drive back the golden thieves!"
It turned out that Li Gang did not expect to be able to defeat the golden thieves in the field battle outside Kaifeng City. He just wanted to use hundreds of thousands of people to form a full array of tens of thousands of soldiers. Then they advanced step by step to force the Jin soldiers back. With this victory, the Song Dynasty can discuss with the golden thief the issue of lowering the annual currency.
Three million is too much, half a million is just right.
"It's good to be invincible, it's good to be invincible!" Zhao Ji nodded repeatedly, showing a slightly relaxed expression.
According to his thinking, if the Jin people are willing to retreat, everything will be fine. Why fight? Although three million years old coins is a lot, Da Song can still grit his teeth and come up with it.
But the main war faction in Kaifeng City is too powerful and the voice is too loud. If he, an official, doesn't act braver, he is afraid that Prince Zhao Huan will be put in a yellow robe... But if he does this, he will be sorry for Jiu Brother!
Zhao Ji thought about his ninth son and sighed again, thinking: If he is destined to have this calamity, I, the father, must also give him a grand burial! This way he won't blame me anymore...
Yes, with a father like this, what else could Zhao Gou be dissatisfied with?
The day after Zhao Ji decided to give his son Zhao Gou the most glorious funeral, Zhao Gou had arrived at Chenqiaoyi, the blessed place of his ancestors.
At the banquet at Jie Feng, Zhao Gou followed Wanyan Zongwang's request and pulled out a hard bow. Then he heard a soft "bang" sound, and an arrow came out of the string, and then suddenly struck dozens of steps away. On top of a grass target after shooting.
After driving ten steps away from Zhao Gou, Wanyan Zongwang, the prince of Dajin Bodhisattva, was sitting cross-legged on a bed. He watched Zhao Gou hit the target, then nodded slightly and asked the trembling Dasong Zipao in front of him. The civil servant said: "Zhang Bangchang, tell us honestly, how is this King Kang's martial arts compared to King Yun of Hebei?"
His words were quickly translated into Chinese by a Bohai general officer and relayed to Zhang Bangchang, who had just been granted the title of Dazai before leaving the city. Zhao Ji was soft-hearted. When he said goodbye to Zhang Bangchang, he saw that he was almost fainting from crying, so he took action. Feeling compassionate, he immediately made him a Dazai to encourage him.
In this way, even if Zhang Bangchang was killed by the Jin people, he would be considered a master, and he should be able to die without regrets.
But the problem is that Zhang Bangchang doesn’t feel that he has no regrets! He is covered in sweat now...
Hearing Wanyan Zonghan's question, Zhang Zongchang wiped his sweat and replied: "Of course King Kang's martial arts is not as good as King Yun... But even if he is stronger than King Yun, doesn't he have to beg for mercy from the Kingdom of Jin? "
His words were also translated into Jurchen dialect by Tongshi.
"Hahaha!" Wanyan Zongwang suddenly laughed, "He did not beg for mercy from our Kingdom of Jin. Not only did he not beg for mercy, he also fought a battle with Guo Yaoshi and Liu Yanzong in Daming Mansion, and actually ended up with a deadlock. He is much more courageous than the princes in Kaifeng City! A certain family originally wanted to lead troops north to fight him, but now that your court has made peace, let him go for the time being."
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the sound of hurried footsteps, and then Wanyan Zongbi shouted: "Second brother, second brother, something big has happened, something big has happened..."
