It is no longer news that Wan Yanliang treats the clan, dignitaries and founding heroes harshly since he ascended the throne.
This is his approach. He always likes to use simple and crude methods to solve problems for the descendants of the clan, dignitaries and founding heroes. If there is any dispute over interests, he will directly use a big sword to kill heads and make people panic.
The group of clans, powerful officials and their descendants who followed Emperor Taizu and Emperor Taizong to defeat the Liao Kingdom and the Northern Song Dynasty were almost all killed by Wanyan Liang, so much so that some people in the Jinting wondered whether Wanyan Liang was sent by the Song Dynasty. The spy took away the original Wan Yanliang.
The enemy country hated his own meritorious ministers, and they were all killed by the emperor.
Is it true that your surname is not Zhao?
Can your way of governing really last?
As the emperor's confidant, Pusanhutu sometimes had to worry about his own future and the future of his family.
But complaints are complaints, and the emperor's orders must still be carried out.
He ordered the four prefectures of Zhuozhou, Bazhou, Ansu and Xiongzhou to work together to prepare the logistics materials needed for 20,000 elite cavalry in a short time.
Not to mention how long it will take to prepare, it will take eighty or ninety days to prepare, so that Wanyan Alin can send troops.
Why fight if we can't send out troops?
The deadline given by the emperor is before December 30th. Speaking of which, the time is not very tight, because there is only one target, and that is the rebel army that besieged Zhending City.
The siege of Hejian Mansion has been solved. The defeated rebel army retreated and never invaded Hejian Mansion again. Hejian Mansion is now safe and is now Zhending Mansion.
It is not difficult to let Wanyan Alin deal with the rebels in Zhending Mansion for more than half a month, right?
Pusanhutu felt that everything was under control. As long as Wanyan Alin marched and launched an attack, everything would be fine.
Regarding this, Wanyan Alin expressed very depressed.
Not difficult?
Why don't you try it?
Pusan Hutu told Wanyan Alin the original words of Emperor Wanyan Liang, which made Wanyan Alin feel frightened and uneasy. He felt that if he was not careful, he would inevitably be punished even if he won the battle.
and……
Will the rebels be eliminated within this year?
I……
Wanyan Alin is really a mute who eats Coptis chinensis and cannot express his sufferings.
Under the heavy pressure, Wanyan Alin became a little impatient and felt that he could not wait any longer. He forcefully asked the four states to raise enough food and grass for him as soon as possible. He must send troops as soon as possible.
Nonetheless, food preparation and transportation also takes time.
For ten days, Wanyan Ali could do nothing but gather information. He was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot. He even had many conflicts with local officials and punched local Han and Khitan officials, feeling that they were Unreliable and demanding their removal from their positions.
This aroused strong dissatisfaction among local Han and Khitan officials.
Moreover, the people he sent to inquire for information were targeted and many of them never came back. A few who escaped for their lives said that they were attacked by unknown persons on the way to inquire for information. The other party seemed to be very familiar with their actions.
At this time, Wanyan Alin felt like there was a mole around him.
But if you think about it carefully, the sniping operation against intelligence personnel is not a strange thing. It can only be said that the soul of this rebel army attaches great importance to intelligence, and even spends a lot of money to train intelligence personnel and open up an intelligence battlefield, aiming to Let him get accurate information.
This situation was indeed quite difficult, which resulted in Wanyan Alin not being able to know what the situation was like in Zhending Mansion on the eve of dispatching troops.
It wasn't until December 13th, three days after dispatching the troops, that Wanyan Alin finally learned the accurate information - this was sent back by the soldiers he sent with all their lives.
Zhending City was flooded. The rebels flooded the city by building dams to store water. Zhending City was basically declared doomed, but the banner of the Jin Army was still flying in the city. It is expected that under the water attack, There are still a few people who are stubbornly resisting on the tower.
The rebels did not launch an attack. They seemed to be waiting for the city to run out of food and everyone to starve to death. They were very cruel.
Wanyan Alin was stunned on the spot.
It's over.
The city of Zhending is over.
One of the important military radiation centers of the Jin Kingdom in Hebei was gone.
His strategic goals have failed.
Now even if he eliminates this rebel army, the damage to Zhending City will not be restored, and the Jurchen people who died in the city will not be resurrected. Once Wanyan Liang's land-exclusion policy of moving Jurchen household registration southward for so many years is cleared, he What would you think?
Jin Ting's dominance and deterrence in Hebei have been severely weakened, and it is unknown how long it will take to restore it.
How much effort does it take to relocate the real female population, re-deploy troops, and re-establish deterrence?
Wanyan Alin fell into a state of panic and uneasiness.
In his military career, he had never encountered such a passive situation.
The actions of this rebel army are very strange, highly targeted, and extremely efficient. After a month of siege, they can achieve the strategic goal of flooding the city with water and push Zhending City to the brink of collapse.
Wanyan Alin and Jin Ting have already lost half of this race against time.
Thinking of this, Wanyan Alin felt that the most dangerous person at the moment was still herself.
And the bigger question is that if Wan Yanliang knew the news... would he kill himself?
Death may also be an ending.
The best outcome would probably be to be relieved of all positions and lose all power. With Wanyan Liang's harsh treatment of the clan's children, Wanyan Alin felt that this was entirely possible.
For a moment, Wanyan Alin even wanted to abandon the army and run away, or seek refuge with someone. He couldn't just let Wanyan Liang kill him.
His mission had become impossible, and forgiveness was almost impossible.
But looking around, he didn't even know where to escape, let alone which regime could resist the power of the Jin Kingdom and forcibly protect itself.
Song Dynasty?
Xia Kingdom?
Goryeo?
Dali country?
Who can protect himself under Jin Ting's heavy pressure and not hand himself over?
They are all weaklings!
There is no one who can fight!
The Southern Song Dynasty was so cowardly, Xixia was so poor, and the remote countries of Korea and Dali didn't want anything. It would be better to just commit suicide and be reincarnated if you go to them!
I don’t even know where to escape!
Wanyan Ali suddenly discovered that in a situation where there are many countries, if there are no two countries that can compete with each other, it would be a very unfriendly thing for the unlucky people in the country.
If any country could stand upright, Wanyan Alin felt that those clan members and dignitaries who were killed back then would not be killed obediently.
Wanyan Alin thought for a long time and found that his only way to survive was to annihilate the main force of the rebel army and do his best to minimize the losses in Hebei, so that he might be forgiven.
Not to mention understanding, at least I can survive.
calm down.
Wanyan Alin forced himself to calm down and thought very seriously about how to fight the next battle.
Based on the intelligence currently known, it can be judged that this rebel army has been recuperating for a long time, and it occupies the advantageous terrain, is at an absolute advantage, and also controls the dam.
If the army attacks quickly, they may have the idea of destroying both the enemy and the enemy, and dig up the dam to engage in the tactic of subjugating the country.
However, if we attack their logistics as planned and force them to come out for a decisive battle, we still cannot avoid the possibility of them engaging in Zeguo tactics.
They may think that if I don’t live well, you won’t live well either, and then they will dig up the dam and everyone will be finished.
Wanyan Alin definitely doesn’t want to end up with this group of people.
So what to do?
After thinking about it, he found that all the means at his disposal could not change the final outcome, unless he could quickly seize control of the dam.
But even a night attack cannot be done that quickly.
Moreover, they do not know the structure of the dam. If they act rashly, they may end up in a dead end and be eliminated by the rebels.
Then the only possibility left is...
God helps, the river freezes, and all problems are solved.
Wanyan Alin looked up at the sky.
It's a nice sunny day today.
Wanyan Alin has always liked sunny days. He especially likes to run and hunt on the hunting ground while bathing in the sunshine, enjoying the sunshine and the joy of harvest.
But now, he was complaining about the bright sunshine.
Why not freeze it yet?
Why hasn't the cold wave come yet?
Why are the rivers frozen at this time in previous years, but not this year?
Hurry up and freeze!
