Xuanhe eight years, June 16, morning.
In the Lieutenant Colonel Field in Tai Atomic City, there was a scene of a great funeral.
Tens of thousands of athletes from the Tiance Army selected the front army, the imperial tent army, the front army, the middle army, the rear army, the left army, and the right army, under the makeshift white banner. Just standing in the school grounds. In addition to their purple military uniforms, they were also covered with rough white shirts. Fan Yangli was also tied with white cloth, and even the wooden poles of the spears and axes they held were tied with white cloth strips.
These soldiers and generals are all paying tribute to Zhao Kai's father and brother and the "no more" Song Dynasty!
After their officers at all levels told the soldiers about the contents of the "Twelve Ranks of Tiance" and the good news that Zhao Kai "will be the emperor", their morale reached its peak, people were shocked and angry. Then came the bad news!
The bad news is that the golden thieves dug a new dike of the Yellow River north of Kaifeng Mansion. The water of the Yellow River came from the sky and first drowned more than 200,000 soldiers led by Li Gang, Zhong Shidao and others! Then, with the overwhelming momentum of Mount Tai, he pounced towards the most virtuous capital of the Song Dynasty, Kaifeng Mansion in Bianliang, Tokyo!
The water of the Yellow River, which was several feet high, pressed down the thin city walls of Kaifeng Mansion with an unstoppable force. It quickly poured in from several water gates that had not been blocked in time. Due to the erosion of the water, the city walls near several water gates were quickly washed away. , the Yellow River water poured into Kaifeng Mansion at a faster and faster speed... In less than a quarter of an hour, the entire Kaifeng Mansion was submerged by the Yellow River water several feet deep!
Among the millions of common people in Kaifeng City, almost all of them were drowned, except for a small number who were lucky enough to survive by boarding a ship or climbing to a high place that was not flooded or washed away!
The officials of the Song Dynasty were observing the people's sentiments in Ma Qian Street when the flood came. They had no time to escape to higher ground or boats, and were swallowed up by the flood... gone!
The prince of the Song Dynasty was studying the Analects of Confucius in his mansion at that time. Just when he was learning that he couldn't hear anything outside the window and only read the books of sages...the Yellow River flooded in! As a result, His Royal Highness the Prince and his teacher Geng Nanzhong were also washed away by the water. I don’t know where it went? Probably drowned!
The most trusted eunuch of the Song Dynasty, Tong Guantong, was one of the lucky few who was not flooded.
At that time, he was supervising the construction of a tall watchtower on Genyue Mountain, so he escaped. Later, Tong Guan boarded a boat sailing in Kaifeng Prefecture and brought several survivors to Taiyuan Prefecture... ...
It has long been known to everyone that the Jin soldiers besieged Kaifeng Mansion, and everyone knows that the Yellow River often floods, and the floods even rush all the way to Xuzhou! So when everyone heard the bad news that the gold thieves used water to replace soldiers, first flooding the army camp and then flooding Bianliang in Tokyo, almost no one suspected that the news was false, and they all believed it!
After believing it, a very serious question is placed in front of everyone!
The Song Dynasty seems to be gone. What can we do in the future?
Just when everyone was a little panicked, the officers of each army and generals stood up and spoke.
"The official family is gone, the prince is gone, but the king is still there! The king is the chosen one, wise and martial, invincible, and he shares the world with us warriors. If he were the emperor, he might not be able to reopen the Song Dynasty. , go straight to Huanglong?"
"With the king leading us, what does it matter if the Kaifeng Mansion is lost? What does it matter if the official family dies? What does it matter if the prince dies? If the Kaifeng Mansion is lost, we will help the king to get it back! The official family dies, the prince dies Well... Your Majesty has just ascended the throne to be the Emperor!"
"Now that the officials and princes are gone, the imperial court is almost gone, and there are not many of the more than 200,000 troops left, the billions of common people in the world can only be protected by the king and us fighting men! So! We must support the king to ascend the throne!"
"Brothers, we and the people of the world are counting on the king now! The king must ascend the throne and become the emperor!"
"Your Majesty must become an official... Only when your Majesty becomes an official can the "Twelve Ranks System" be truly implemented, and we can share the world with your Majesty!"
After being bewitched by the officers, the fear in the hearts of the soldiers of the Tiance Army quickly dissipated... What if the officials are gone? It’s great to support the king as an official! It would be better if the prince is gone, so as not to be in the way! The Song Dynasty is gone...then start a new one!
...
Just when everyone was preparing to support Zhao Kai as emperor and reopen the Great Song Dynasty, outside the school grounds, two horses rode side by side and were galloping slowly towards the school grounds. Immediately, the two of them were filial sons, and they were both Zhao Kai and Zhao Zhi.
Brother Zhao Zhi, Zhao Duofu, Zhu Fengying, Pan Cailian, and Zhao Lun's family actually left Xiangzhou on the same day as Tong Guan and Lu Yihao and went straight to Taiyuan Mansion - because after the Wannian Xindi Battle , Jin Bing's East Route Army has lost control and may go north to Xiangzhou at any time. Therefore, Xiangzhou was no longer safe, and the family members of Zhao Kai and the family members of the generals who had been left behind in Xiangzhou began to move.
The family members of the general and the people of Xiangzhou who were willing to follow were all escorted by Cai Mao and He Guan to Huaizhou. Zhu Fengying, Pan Cailian, Zhao Lun, Zhao Zhi, Zhao Duofu and others were transferred to Taiyuan under the escort of Han Xiaozhou, Liang Fangping, Wang Xiaode, Bai Side and others. In addition, Han Xiaozhou's family members also followed them to Taiyuan.
As for the defense of Xiangzhou, Zhao Bushi, the original general judge of Xiangzhou and the sixth grandson of Song Taizu, took over.
Zhao Zhi and others arrived in Taiyuan Mansion one day later than Zhao Kai, but they still caught up with the big funeral, which also gave Zhao Kai a brother he could rely on.
Dozens of knights followed at a distance, leaving room for the good brothers to talk. No one knows whether His Highness the Mad King and his good brothers can afford the mess their father and brother left behind.
Among the dozens of knights following Zhao Kai and Zhao Zhi, in addition to the civil and military officials of the Grand Marshal's Mansion and Zhao Kai's personal guards, there were also two flag bearers, each holding a long white flag with black characters tattooed on it. , is a couplet.
The first couplet is: The mountains and rivers are about to reach the land of China.
The second line is: The sun and the moon reopen the Great Song Dynasty.
Seeing that he was about to arrive at the school, Zhao Kai whispered to his brother: "Brother Twelve, do you know what 'the mountains and rivers are about to reach the land of China; the sun and the moon reopen the Great Song Dynasty' mean?"
Zhao Zhi just frowned when he heard this: "Third Brother, the meaning of this couplet is that the world belongs to us Chinese, no one can take it away! Although our Song Dynasty is in danger of collapse, Third Brother, you still have to lead us to rebuild the Great Song Dynasty. Song. But third brother, we just lost our father... There are still many loyal ministers controlling hundreds of military states all over the world!"
Zhao Kai nodded and said: "I know that there are still many loyal ministers in the Song Dynasty... If these ministers are willing to follow Brother Yu, then Brother Yu will take them to reopen the Song Dynasty!"
What if they don't want to? Of course, Zhao Zhi knew that Kaifeng Mansion was not flooded, and he also knew that his eldest brother Zhao Huan was not dead, and was probably still enthroned in Yingtian Mansion... Although the late emperor issued a posthumous edict to pass on the throne to Zhao Kai before his death, But that edict was just a verbal edict, not a formal edict, and not many people heard it.
Therefore, in the eyes of most of the courtiers of the Song Dynasty, Zhao Huan was the orthodox one!
When Zhao Zhi was deep in thought, Zhao Kai suddenly asked again: "Brother Twelve, are you willing to be with Brother Yu?"
Zhao Zhi quickly expressed his stance: "Brother Chen is willing!"
"Okay!" Zhao Kai nodded, "From now on, our brothers will be like the brothers of Taizu's generation! I will be Taizu and you will be King Fu (Zhao Tingmei). Let's build a new foundation together! After Brother Yu goes south, you will Stay in Taiyuan and guard this inheritance for Brother Yu!"
"Third brother, I can't do it!" Zhao Zhi was still timid and shook his head after hearing his brother's words.
Zhao Kai said: "You can do it... Brother Yu has already made arrangements, so just feel free to guard Taiyuan boldly!"
