Zhao Huan is not the kind of person who swallows the pain when he suffers a loss. After being tortured like this by the Jin man, how can he have any good intentions?
"Now that the Jin people have taken action, they have withdrawn their army, and now they are fighting again. Have they calmed down?"
"Your Majesty is overly worried. It is very difficult for him to wipe his butt clean based on Jin Ren's condition. Otherwise, how could he have worked so hard to support Su... and Liu Yu from Jinan.
They just want to use the rebels of our Song Dynasty to deal with our Song Dynasty.
But for this... I think His Majesty has been prepared for it for a long time. "
There was no one around at this time, so Zhao Ding looked at Zhao Huan more casually, and even revealed Zhao Huan's thoughts with one sentence.
"Hey, although I was prepared, I didn't expect these guys to be so decisive. I am the emperor, and I can't do things according to my own will.
At the beginning, many soldiers and horses on Hebei Road had problems. How much cleaner could the generals and commanders in this Central Plains land be?
Most of them have the merit of King Qin's rescue. Even if they only show off at the last moment, I can't kill them directly in this situation.
Rather than chilling more loyal and courageous soldiers for their sake, it would be better to use the Central Plains as a bait.
It's just that I really didn't expect them to act so decisively, which caught me off guard. "
What Zhao Huan said now was sincere. He did have some thoughts. He still had a very deep memory of Du Chong, and there were many people who he knew had evil intentions.
But what can he do? How many generals under Zhao Huan are really clean now?
In addition to Yue Pengju, Han Shizhong also had a history of bullying his subordinates. Historically, he unjustly killed Hu Yantong, which was an embarrassment.
Other Liu Qi, Liu Zhongwu, Zhe Yanzhi and even Yu Wenxuzhong and Zhao Ding and Hu Yin, true gentlemen and true saints these days are rare to see in thousands of years.
Until now, Du Chong had no real evil deeds that could make Zhao Huan chop him into pieces. If not Zhao Huan, Zhao Ji would also start to gather military power.
Nowadays, there is not even a newspaper office. If he kills Du Chong and others for no reason, who knows what will happen if this matter spreads.
If someone comes to Han Shizhong, he becomes Zhao Huan and wants to kill the donkey...
The news reached Zongze, saying that Zhao Huan wanted to gather military power and cooperate with the Jin people...
Zong Ze was really angry to death. Where could he, Zhao Huan, cry? Or was he counting on these "loved generals" who had met him less than ten times in total to be extremely loyal to him in their hearts?
Isn’t this nonsense!
Zhao Huan simply left Zongze in the open, and then sent all the people he knew who might rebel in the future to the Central Plains. It could even be said that he took the initiative to give them a chance.
When they take action, Zongze can kill them.
There was nothing wrong with this plan, but the timing that Zhao Huan guessed was really wrong. Jin Wushu started too quickly, and they surrendered too simply, without giving Zong Ze a chance to say anything.
It almost cut off Zongze's retreat. Looking at Wang Xie's posture, it seemed that even Zongze had been deceived.
I have to say that today’s Song Dynasty, which is also the Northern Song Dynasty in history, is really terrible!
"Things are already like this. Your Majesty has called us, but are you ready?"
"Before, my beloved asked me whether I should fight against the outside world or settle down the inside first. Although I didn't want to say it, I can still resist the external problems, but the internal problems are the gangrene that makes people shudder.
Their presence makes it difficult for our Da Song Dynasty to operate at all times, and great dangers may arise at any time.
I have decided to first resolve the many internal rebellions and pacify them before going to pacify Tubo, Xixia and other places. As for the Jinren... I will give him a chance to fight to the death!
"Since Your Majesty has made such a decision, we will definitely provide you with our fullest assistance, but on top of the mobilization of troops and horses..."
"The situation in Kaifeng City must not be ignored, and it must be saved. This time I have decided to personally conquer the Central Plains and pacify Jiangnan!"
"Your Majesty, please wait!" Zhao Huan was stopped by Zhao Ding as soon as he finished speaking. He looked really anxious, but Zhao Huan reached out to stop him just as Zhao Ding finished speaking.
"I understand what Aiqing means, and I also know that our Zhao royal family... has this special problem, but my intention is not to send out a large army.
Nowadays, the Song Dynasty is full of waste and is waiting to be revitalized. However, the reform of official positions, the abolition of three redundancies, the stabilization of food prices, appeasing the people, repairing the city and other matters are all your beloved ministers' responsibility. My presence or absence is actually not important.
So I plan to send out only Yue Pengju's troops this time.
Then, as a lieutenant general in the army, I will only watch and say. "
After hearing Zhao Huan's promise, Yue Fei breathed a sigh of relief, but after thinking about it, he still felt that there was something wrong.
"If your Majesty is like this, why do you have to go out personally?"
"If I say that my plan to tighten military power is a suitable reason?" Zhao Huan chuckled and stopped scaring them, "Now the Song Dynasty is a good opportunity to break the old and bring forth the new.
But nowadays, the officialdom of the Song Dynasty is mixed, with good and bad officials. There are loyal ministers and good generals, but there are also people with evil intentions who are profiting from it.
If Pengju went by himself, he would naturally be able to tell the difference, but even if I gave Pengju a lot of weight, it would still be inconvenient after all.
But if I were by his side, I would be able to tell the difference between them, and I would be able to choose good people and reuse them. When I encounter people with evil intentions, I can also let the military commander kill them.
Changing officials and assuming power is what I should do.
As for commanding the war, controlling the central army, and pacifying the four sides, it is better to leave it to General Yue. I will not say more. "
After Zhao Huan explained his thoughts clearly, Yue Fei took a step back and expressed his approval and agreement. However, Zhao Ding and Yu Wenxuzhong still looked at each other and refused to give in.
"Your Majesty, the sage said that a gentleman should not stand behind a dangerous wall. Now that your Majesty wants to go out with the army, this is really... a bit too dangerous.
How can there be complete security during this march and battle? Besides, even if His Majesty hides his identity, how can General Yue not care about it?
If General Yue takes His Majesty's life into consideration at all times, the formation of this platoon of troops..."
"Pengju, please tell Zhao Qing, if I were under your command, would I have affected your command?" Zhao Huan was not a vegetarian. He brought this matter to Yue Fei when he came up, making Yue Fei look around. Both sides kept looking around, but they didn't know whether to say yes or no.
Seeing Yue Fei's hesitation, Zhao Huan once again gave him a tough tip.
"Peng Ju, your subordinates are still too small after all. If I am in Luoyang and cannot pay attention in real time, you want to recruit surrenders and rebels, or you want to recruit righteous men... This is not convenient."
"Your Majesty, it will be convenient for him if you are here?" Yu Wenxu saw that Zhao Huan was so tempting and couldn't help but interrupt, but Zhao Huan had already been prepared.
"I have already said that I will not say a word more in this regard. With me supporting him, what should he worry about?"
"Then your Majesty said this, I feel that as long as your Majesty keeps his word, I will definitely not make it easy for Jin Wushu!"
Zhao Huan applauded after hearing this assurance.
Zhao Ding and Yu Wenxuzhong on the side glared at Yue Fei, and then Yu Wenxuzhong stood up again.
"Even if His Majesty is protected by Yue Fei, this country cannot live without a king for a day. His Majesty is away from home and has many major events..."
"My younger brother is extremely talented, so I asked King Yun Zhao Kai to assist the government and the prince to supervise the country. I have a son!"
At this time, Zhao Huan didn't mind and directly carried out his talented brother Zhao Kai again, making Yu Wenxuzhong not know what to say.
Zhao Kai has experienced the battle in the land of Yanjing. No one in the world dares to say that Zhao Kai wants to plot evil or betray the Song Dynasty. I am afraid that Yue Fei, Pharmacist Guo and others will come to have a good relationship with him first. Some theory!
"The prince is young..."
"So his uncle is responsible for assisting the government."
"I'm afraid some people will... criticize this."
"It is impossible for anyone to alienate the feelings between our brothers. Besides, before King Yun left Kaifeng, I promised him that I would give him a chance to govern personally when he came back alive.
How can I go back on my words about such things? "
This reason was so unparalleled that Zhao Ding and Na Yu Wenxuzhong didn't know what to say. This put the royal integrity on the line.
"His Majesty..."
"Don't say any more, I have made up my mind!" In the end, Zhao Huan directly finalized the matter, leaving everyone speechless. At the same time, Zhao Huan also brought up another matter.
"My whereabouts and the deployment of troops have been decided. The one who will stay in Luoyang will be Medicine Master Guo. He has an old relationship with King Yun and will definitely protect the safety of Luoyang."
"Your Majesty is really... trustworthy in employing people."
"Hey... let's not talk about this. This Jin man supported that naughty man to ascend the throne in Yanjing. This is disrespectful to me, the Song Dynasty. But now it is really difficult for us to attack Yanjing.
So I decided to give them a gift too! "
"Your Majesty plans to kill Jin Wushu?"
Yu Wenxuzhong felt that Zhao Huan was going to cause trouble this time, but he felt that this was a bit unrealistic.
"Hey, I thought about it too, but well, this guy's brain may not work very well, but his legs are still very useful. It is indeed a little troublesome to catch him.
My gift is... a golden man to give to dad. "
At this moment, everyone's expressions became strange.
In March of the second year of Jingkang, Zhao Huan sent an envoy to Yanjing, using Qin Hui as the envoy, to send congratulatory gifts and gold.
When Li Bangyan, who was in charge of the reception, saw the gift, he was so shocked that he froze in place and did not dare to make any move for a long time.
"What are you looking at? Why don't you hurry up and invite Emperor Daojun down!"
