"Emperor Wu Qimai is dead, and the Kingdom of Jin is about to end!"
"The Song Dynasty had fire-breathing heavenly soldiers and burned Wu Qimai to death..."
"The heavenly soldiers have entered the city. Surrender quickly... Whoever surrenders will avoid death!"
"Run quickly, the fire-breathing demon from Song Kingdom has entered the city!"
When night fell on September 21, the first year of Jingkang's reign, there were already loud shouts and exclamations in the southwest area of Damingfu City. Moreover, the shouts were not only in Chinese, but also in Jurchen language.
Some Jin soldiers seemed to have defected to the Heavenly Soldiers of the Song Dynasty, and some people from Daming Mansion saw how powerful the Heavenly Soldiers were, so they joined the fight against the Jin without hesitation... Of course, there were also There are some unscrupulous people who are busy taking advantage of the situation!
Suddenly, in the entire Damingfu City, the hearts and minds of the army were all in chaos.
The common people, villagers and merchants inside and outside Guanyin Gate and Wei County Gate were a little at a loss when they heard the loud shouts. I don’t know whether it’s better to flee towards the inner city, follow the fire-breathing master Wang and fight the golden thief, or simply run away like this?
Just when they didn't know what to do, a group of Song Dynasty soldiers wearing armor that had just been pulled from the dead golden thieves Han'er Army soldiers came down to pull the strong men!
It’s impossible not to be a strong man! Zhao Kai's main force just left Xiaowuxi camp this morning. They have more than 120 miles to travel. It would be good to reach Daming Mansion tomorrow afternoon.
Although Zhao Kai will let some of the elite cavalry go first, they will definitely reach Daming Mansion tonight. But tonight's time span is quite big... and it's just getting dark now!
Therefore, according to the plan of the Marching Counselor Department, after Yue Fei and others successfully raided Guanyin Gate and Wei County Gate, they had to recruit as many strong men as possible to the city to help in the battle. Although the camp army established by Zhao Kai has strict discipline and is known as "Don't demolish the house to death, and don't plunder to death of starvation", the strong men still have to pull it!
Well, protecting the homeland and the country is the glorious duty of the people of the Song Dynasty!
"The officials have said that ordinary men are responsible for the rise and fall of the world! So none of you, old men or young men, can even think of leaving. You all follow us to the city to help in the war! Who dares to disobey, wow... "
The man who screamed was Dong Jingang. He had just come down from the gate tower of Wei County to recruit young men on Guo Tiannu's order.
When he arrived outside the city gate, he immediately ordered a group of subordinates, including the grassroots soldiers who were just standing on the wall, to surround a group of dizzy common people. He also said that they were all common men and were responsible for the rise and fall of the world!
"Lieutenant, we are not ordinary people, we are scholars!"
Immediately, a few men dressed as Confucian scholars quit... They were scholars! This time I was invited by Xianggong Du to go to the city to become an official!
Now that I have no official position, I am being dragged into the army. How can this be possible?
Dong Jingan stared at those people and said calmly: "What? You are scholars, not ordinary people? Oh, the officials also said that scholars have greater responsibilities. When the gold thief comes, you guys will be the vanguard. , the first batch to charge!"
Although he defected to the Song Dynasty, he was still a Liao man at heart. He had no concept of valuing civility over martial arts. Instead, he felt that martial arts were more valuable!
Now of course I won’t let go of these talented scholars... If you have the skills and legs, you can resist gold!
Oh, not all people with hands and feet can resist gold. There was an old scholar who fainted when he heard that he was going to be a forward!
Dong Jingang looked a little anxious, "Don't, don't faint... Why are you such a timid scholar? What kind of book are you reading? Have you ever studied Confucius' saying of Chengren and Mencius' saying of "Qiyi"? The opportunity for Chengren to achieve righteousness is right in front of you, and you are still stunned!"
However, he couldn't let the scholar go, so he still called to his left and right: "Come here quickly, you guys, come here quickly and carry this fainted scholar up to the top of the city... He will be a benevolent man later." !”
As a military leader who came from the Resentment Army, Dong Jingang is very experienced in recruiting strong men. Of course he knows the rules... He must pull one by one, and no one can be let go!
Outside the Guanyin Gate, Wang Gui, Yue Fei's Tangyin fellow, the "honest young man" who just helped Yue Fei deceive Jin Bing, now also brought people to recruit young men.
But instead of meeting a scholar, he met a wealthy businessman... This guy was dressed as a farmer and had a dozen men carrying millet. He looked like an ordinary farmer, but he didn't Think of the salt underneath the millet!
This is a profiteer who sells smuggled salt!
Of course the profiteer refused to fight for gold, so a silver ingot was thrust into Wang Gui's hand.
Wang Gui had a serious face, "What do you mean, you profiteer? Do you want to bribe me? It's useless, I'm not afraid of death... When you get to the top of the city later, you will be responsible." Raise your shield! But your men are all quite strong, they should be able to shoot arrows, right? They all have to fight hard for me!"
The profiteer had a mournful face and pointed at a young boy with fine features behind him, "Lieutenant, this is, this is the concubine of the common people, she can't shoot arrows..."
"What? A woman?" Wang Gui glanced at the man, "A woman can be responsible for treating the wounded soldiers...and take them away too!"
There was no one else this strong man could win over. No matter whether they were villagers or scholar-bureaucrats, whether they were profiteers or female relatives, they were all imprisoned on the city walls of Guanyin Gate and Wei County Gate. I want to run!
...
Daming Prefecture is a majestic city with a circumference of 48 miles, which is only slightly smaller than Kaifeng Prefecture (Kaifeng Prefecture has a circumference of 60 miles). It also has three walls: outer outer wall, inner city, and palace city. The Guanyin Gate and Wei County Gate that were raided on the evening of September 21, the first year of Jingkang, were far away from the Damingfu Palace City where Wanyan Xieye lived, so there was a process for transmitting the news.
So Ban Bojilie, who is familiar with the Great Jin Kingdom, doesn't know yet that the fire-breathing heavenly soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty have already invaded!
Moreover, the well-versed Banbo Jilie is not in good health and has been ill recently... Otherwise, he is the marshal of the capital, and he should be commanding the attack on Kaifeng Mansion instead of his brother, the emperor. Wu Qimai went into battle.
This afternoon he drank the medicine prescribed by a doctor Du Chong found for him. After drinking it, he felt sleepy, so he lay down now, so groggy that he almost fell asleep.
Just when he was in a daze, the door to his bedroom was suddenly knocked open, and a girl wearing a white silk robe burst in angrily, crying and shouting: "Fifth Uncle, Fifth Uncle , no good...the Southern Army has invaded Damingfu City! My father..."
Wanyan Xie also squinted his eyes and saw that the person coming was his niece Wanyanyan. The twelfth daughter Wu Qi bought did not follow her father to open the Feng Mansion, but stayed in Daming Mansion. However, she did not live in the palace city. Instead, she chose a mansion in the outer city of Daming Prefecture (the inner city of Daming Prefecture was very small), near Zhangshui River (located in the west of the city), and gave her the title of Princess Village.
This princess village is much better than Wanyanyan's village in Huining. It is really built with jade railings and pavilions. There are many beautiful flowers and plants planted in the garden, and there is a swimming pool... ..In the summer, it is very comfortable to take off your clothes and swim in it.
In addition, there are several very lively streets near her Princess Village, with various shops opened, and there are so many delicious and fun things... She also has some money now (it's that Du A gift from my husband), so I go shopping whenever I have time. My life is so happy.
When the "Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals" came today, she was eating in a restaurant on a street inside the gate of Wei County. She happened to witness the battle between the Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals to seize the gate, and also heard the rumor of "Wu Qimai's death".
After seeing the power of the heavenly soldiers, the twelfth princess rushed to the palace of Daming Mansion and reported the news to her fifth uncle Wan Yanxie.
Wan Yanxie was also shocked by the news, and saw the tears on Wan Yan Yan's face, and hurriedly asked: "Sister Guer (Wan Yan Yan's nickname), what happened to your father?"
"My father was burned to death by fire from heaven..."
Wan Yanxie didn't even wait for her to finish her words before he yelled: "Sister, what are you talking about?"
Wanyan Yan burst into tears when he yelled at her. Before she could answer Xie Ye's question, the alarm bell sounded outside.
Along with the sound of the bell, Xie Ye also heard a faint shout.
Now Wanyan Xie also knew that something was wrong. He had no time to talk to Wanyan Yan anymore and no longer felt sleepy. He immediately got up from the bed, picked up a robe and put it on his body, and then strode out. After arriving at the dormitory hall, he found that several Meng'an had already arrived outside. The prime minister Du Chong and Wang Bolong of Ten Thousand Households, whom he relied on, and his son Wanyan Ahuli were also here. They all looked solemn, and at first glance, they were surprised. I know it’s bad.
"Dad, something big has happened...Song soldiers have sneaked into Guanyin Gate and Wei County Gate!"
It was his son Ahuli who reported to Wanyanxie.
"What? Wang Bolong!" Wanyan Xie became angry immediately and glared at Wang Bolong, "What's going on? Aren't the people guarding Guanyin Gate and Wei County Gate your people?"
Wang Bolong was so anxious that he was sweating. Hearing Xieye's question, he quickly explained: "Your Majesty, I have already asked... The Song people in Huncheng are really powerful. They have a sharp weapon like a wine jar. If it hits someone, it will catch fire and burn them alive!"
Wanyan Xie also glared, "What did you say? Burning people alive? What nonsense are you talking about?"
"Fifth uncle, my niece saw that firearm with her own eyes at the gate of Wei County!" Wanyan Yan also followed. When she heard Wang Bolong talking about the "fierce oil tank", she said loudly, "That thing is really powerful. It burns a large area." ...In addition, the Song soldiers and generals in Huncheng are also extremely brave, and Wang Wanhu's men cannot resist them at all!
In addition, those Song people also said that my father was defeated in Kaifeng Mansion and burned to death by heavenly fire! Woohoo...Daddy..."
Now there was complete silence outside Wanyan Xieye's bedroom. Was Wanyan Wu a beggar to death? real or fake? And that sky fire...how should I break it?
