Back to the Song Dynasty as a tyrant

Standing on the top of the city, Han Shizhong saw that the Vanguard Battalion had taken the initiative, but he did not act in a hurry, but waited for the collapse caused by the defeat of the vanguard of the Koryo Army.

There are too many people in the Korean army, and it will take time for panic to spread.

Han Shizhong is not in a hurry, he has time, and he also has an army capable of conscripting and fighting.

After all, the Liaodong Army in his hands is no longer the Song Army in the first year of Jingkang.

A head-on field battle with the elite Jin army may not be able to determine the outcome, but fighting against Korea, looking at it now, is really not difficult.

As time went by, the front of the Song Army moved forward more and more, and more and more Goryeo soldiers died.

Finally, the vanguard of the Goryeo army collapsed.

Countless people stopped charging, but turned around and fled in panic.

The fleeing people and those who were still charging behind collided with each other, making a mess.

What's even more frightening is that panic is spreading rapidly like a plague.

Han Shizhong ordered: "The left and right crossbow battalions attack."

The Song Army flag was waving.

The crossbow battalions distributed on the left and right began to quickly enter the battlefield from the two wings.

They ran in small steps and quickly pushed towards the Gaoli army.

Each battalion was divided into five cities, each with 100 people to form a small independent fighting force, equipped with crossbow arrows, and when the distance was shortened, a wave of arrows rained on the opposite Korean army in an instant.

The Achilles' heel of the Koryo Army has been highlighted at this time: too many people, the command system is not perfect, and it is impossible to control such a huge army. As a result, only the forwards of the Koryo Army are attacking, and the left and right wings are still in a daze.

The Song army, which had played a wave of momentum, assaulted the left and right wings of Goryeo at this time, which undoubtedly expanded the results of the battle.

Dust was everywhere on the battlefield, screams were unbearable, and there was a thick smell of blood in the wind.

Han Shizhong can see the front line, but because of the larger number and farther Jin Fushi, even standing on the coach's platform, he cannot see the specific situation of the front line.

Even the scouts were unprepared to send the message back.

The civil servants like Jin Fushi were obviously a lot of amateurs when they were actually fighting. They were running around in a hurry, not knowing what was going on.

Jin Dunzhong said impatiently: "Why are you in such a hurry? Our army has hundreds of thousands, and each of them can drown the Song army with a spit. I don't believe that the Song army can defeat us with that little force!"

Jin immediately followed his elder brother and said, "That's right, Song Jun only has so few people, so don't be afraid at all!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the scouts galloped from the front on horseback, shouting in an anxious and eager tone: "Report! Report! Your Majesty! Our army's forward has been defeated. The Song army has penetrated the front and killed the Chinese army. Come!"

As soon as he said this, the expressions of everyone present changed abruptly.

Without waiting for Wang Kai to say anything, Jin Fushi immediately said: "Order the left and right armies to cut off the Song army's retreat, and the central army sends troops to outflank the Song army!"

"Okay! That's great!" Jin immediately praised, "I said, how could the Song army win, and now they cut off their backs and are outflanked by us. Wait for the entire army to be wiped out!"

When everyone heard Jin Fushi's arrangement, their anxiety was swept away, and they immediately began to scramble: "Jin Xianggong is worthy of my pillar!"

"Jin Xianggong strategized and won thousands of miles, Zhuge Kongming is alive!"

"Jin Xianggong is really a god!"

"..."

Everyone, you say a word to me.

Before the horses were finished shooting, the scouts from the left wing rushed over: "Report! Your Majesty! The left wing was attacked by crossbowmen from the Song Army and collapsed!"

Everyone's faces froze again.

Jin Fushi immediately shouted: "Order the right wing!"

At this time, another scout rushed over: "Report! Your Majesty, the right wing of our army was raided by the Song army's crossbow arrows and collapsed!"

Now everyone stopped talking, and everyone was shocked like a duck being strangled by the neck.

"The left and right flanks each have 12 troops, a total of [-] troops! [-] troops! The forward has [-] elite soldiers! You mean, the Song Army defeated all of our [-] troops in just over an hour!"

Jin Fushi's expression was livid, and he lowered his voice angrily, and his voice was trembling.

No one answered his question.

However, desperate cries came from the front.

A minister immediately shouted: "Quick! Take Your Majesty out of here!"

Some Goryeo soldiers covered in blood ran towards the central army formation, shouting loudly: "Help me quickly! The enemy is coming..."

Seeing this, the Central Route Army all showed horror.

Looking at the dust in front of him, blurred silhouettes, stained red by blood, rushed towards this side.

Chapter 608 Political Changes Caused by War (Second Change)

At noon, the great defeat was staged outside Kaijing City.

At a glance, it stretches for several miles.

Countless people dropped their helmets and armor, and the rout spread rapidly to the distance.

By evening, the war outside Kaijing was basically over.

Many people died.

If I had to use an adjective to describe it, it would be: dead bodies everywhere!

I am afraid it will take time to count how many people died.

It is estimated that tens of thousands were killed by Song Jun, and even more were trampled to death by their own people.

Before dark, Zhang Qing ran back to Kaijing with blood all over his body. He said excitedly, "Han Shuai, who do you think I brought?"

Han Shizhong fixed his eyes and saw a man in royal clothes being sent up.

There is another group of people, everyone is wearing official uniforms, and one of them is an old man who is prominent at first glance.

"This is Jin Fushi." Zhang Qing said excitedly, capturing the leader of the rebels, this credit is not insignificant.

Qin Hui immediately said: "Quickly untie the lord of Koryo, my imperial army came to Koryo to set things right!"

Zhang Qing's people did not move.

Han Shizhong said: "Untie."

Only then was Wang Kai released.

"The rest are all bet on."

Na Jin immediately shouted: "Forgive me! I was forced! I want to serve the Celestial Dynasty!"

No one cares about him.

The decisive battle of Kaijing almost wiped out the main elite of Goryeo, and dealt a huge blow to the military power in the south of Goryeo.

Moreover, Wang Kai was caught, and even Jin Fushi and others were caught, which means that the overall situation is basically settled.

The most important thing is that there was a vacuum in the local army in the south of Koryo, and the military resistance of the Song army to implement the new agricultural policy in Koryo was gone.

In other words, it is only a matter of time before Korea's basic market stabilizes.

According to Zhao Ning's big economic strategy, at present, all places are to be supplied for the later Northern Expedition.

Goryeo is obviously no exception. In addition to setting up military towns in Goryeo to contain more Jin troops, it is also necessary to increase the import of goods from Goryeo to make up for the inflation problem caused by printing money.

Goryeo belongs to a self-sufficient small-scale peasant society.

However, Korea’s commodities are also very developed, with abundant food, handmade products, and various medicinal materials.

This way of developing the inland through war and financial and economic means can lay a solid foundation for the extermination of Xia Fajin.

On the second day of October, the Liaodong Army held a high-level meeting to discuss how to deal with Wang Kai, Jin Fushi and others.

The generals agreed that Jin Fushi and other rebels should be executed.

Zhang Qing said: "Then the King of Korea is not a good thing, why not kill them together."

Qin Hui said: "The king of Koryo cannot be killed. The imperial court sent troops in the name of helping the country of Koryo. If the king of Koryo is killed now, Xijing will be in chaos. Let this matter be handled by this official, and you should not interfere any more. "

"If the King of Korea didn't have a different heart, how would the people below dare to..."

Zhang Qing still wanted to say something, but was called to stop.

After the crowd dispersed, he said to Zhang Qing, "Brother Zhang, don't contradict Mr. Qin again."

Zhang Qing said dissatisfiedly: "I don't think Qin Hui has any good intentions when he comes to Korea."

Geng smiled and said: "Qin Xianggong came to Koryo, naturally there is Qin Xianggong's mission."

"What mission?"

"Deal with the endgame."

"Deal with the endgame?"

"Clean up King Goryeo."

Zhang Qing was stunned for a moment, not quite understanding: "How do you say that?"

"Brother Zhang, don't think too much about it. This is a political issue, and it's not the same as the way of fighting. Qin Xianggong is the best at this."

Zhang Qing said: "But for some reason, I just don't like this Qin Hui!"

"Everyone doesn't seem to like him, so what the hell."

He patted Zhang Qing on the shoulder and walked out stubbornly. At the door, he suddenly said: "Next, the imperial court will make major adjustments here. Congratulations to Brother Zhang for his promotion to an important position."

Zhang Qing chuckled and didn't say anything.

In fact, everyone is looking forward to the reward of King Qi from the court.

On the third day of October, Yanjing.

Zongwang couldn't help but sighed after reading Wanyan Wu's begging letter.

"Why did Shang Shuling sigh?" Wan Yanjing asked.

"Your Majesty still has the idea of ​​going to war against Song."

Everyone couldn't help discussing.

Wan Yanjing said: "We have just started a full-scale business with the State of Song. Seeing that we have made a lot of money, why does the court want to fight again?"

Liu Yanzong said: "Yanyun's new policy is in full swing. Now that we are going to war with Song, we must transfer people and collect food, horses and other military supplies, which will have a great impact on the new policy!"

"Exactly! Now is the critical moment, how can you say that the war will start!"

"This is destroying the results of our restructuring!"

"Shang Shuling, you must not rashly start a war with Song!"

"..."

Everyone is you and me.

Everyone looked at Wanyan Zongpan again and said: "If we go to war with Song, all our goods will be seized, and Song will no longer provide our country with tea and silk!"

Wanyan Zongpan's face was also very ugly, he said: "The war faction thinks about fighting every day, they don't consider what the nobles need now, and they don't consider whether the crops in the fields are still planted, I will report to His Majesty and resolutely oppose it! "

Everyone couldn't help but praise Wanyan Zongpan.

Zong Wang sighed and said, "Song State is now attacking Goryeo."

As soon as he said this, some people were calm, and some were surprised.

Whether to attack the Song Dynasty is not something that can be decided by Zongpan Memorial.

Judging from Wanyan Wu’s begging letter and the information sent by the Liaoyang Mansion, the main reason for the war faction’s rise, and Wanyan Wu’s begging was moved by Song’s use of troops against Goryeo.

Zong Wang continued: "Song soldiers gathered in Koryo, and the imperial court thought this was the best time to recapture Huizhou."

Everyone fell silent, because they also believed that this was indeed the best time to recover the state.

But fighting is a chain reaction. Once Liaodong goes to war, it will inevitably affect Yanyun and Hebei, and make the two countries quickly turn against each other.

The originally fragile trust collapsed again, and all that was left was fighting in battle.

If the situation develops to this point, there will basically be no chance to start a business that has been negotiated with great difficulty in the future.

Once the Song Dynasty is really conquered, business collapses, and internal resources are fully concentrated for war, the main peace faction will lose most of its political resources and be completely defeated by the main war faction.

This was something that Wanyan Zongpan, who wanted to inherit the throne of the Jin Kingdom, absolutely did not want to see.
