One Piece of Song Dynasty

Chapter 550 Miao Liu Mutiny 6

Ever since Zhang Jun dismissed his official position at Yangzhou City, Han Shizhong had been particularly wary of Zhang Jun. Nowadays, which general has not been accused of several crimes and was dismissed by Zhang Jun in public when he was outnumbered. Now that he is disgraced, wouldn't Zhang Jun just find a crime to clean himself up? Just thinking about this, his subordinates came to report and said that Zhang Jun arrive. Han Shizhong hurriedly dressed himself up and walked out of the cabin. He saw Zhang Jun standing on the shore with a man and a horse, saluting, and said loudly: "Zhang Jun was overjoyed when he heard that General Han was coming from the sea. He asked the general to abandon the ship and go ashore to discuss the big plan."

"Who is submissive and who is rebellious in the court? Don't play tricks on me, old Han, you pretty boy." Han Shizhong stood on the bow of the ship with a sword in his armor and shouted at Zhang Jun with a stern expression. Zhang Jun said: "Your Majesty is in danger. It is the time when soldiers use their lives. General Han has always been relied upon by Your Majesty. Even if Zhang Jun offended the general before, couldn't the general burst into tears and put aside his past grudges? The general will not go ashore, but Zhang Jun will get on the ship."

Zhang Junli dismounted from his saddle, stepped onto the bow of the ship firmly on the pedals, and bowed sincerely and deeply. Han Shizhong was stunned for a moment, then he threw his knife and cried loudly: "The Lord is in trouble, Wang Yuan was killed, Shizhong vows to sworn to die together with Miao and Liu."

Zhang Jun and Han Shizhong held hands and waved to the soldiers, and the soldiers in each boat were very excited. Zhang Jun then pulled Han Shizhong ashore and told him anxiously that before Lu Yihao arrived in Pingjiang, he had already sent three letters to Liu Guangshi in succession, urging him to be diligent as king, but unfortunately Guangshi refused to comply. Han Shizhong scolded: "Don't mention that idiot Jin's army is difficult to fight. It's hard to clean up the trouble caused by a few men. With Han Shizhong here, Zhang Shilang can sit back and relax. I will march to Hangzhou immediately."

Zhang Jun said: "If you throw a rat into a trap, something unexpected may happen. Please ask the general to confuse Miao and Fu, and say that you are loyal to them if you want to go."

"I know how to fool people best," Han Shizhong laughed. Both of them laughed, and just as they were talking, another group of warships came from a distance. On the first ship, an old man said loudly: "Lu Yihao brought elite troops to serve the king."

Zhang Jun cried with joy when he saw Lu Yihao arriving in time. He knew very well that Lu Yihao was also someone who refused to be submissive to others, and he was afraid that he would have a bad relationship with him at this time of life and death, so he hurriedly responded: "Zhang Jun has been waiting for Mr. Lu to come as the leader of the alliance day and night, and lead us to die to serve the country."

"I narrowly escaped death. I have already given up on life and death. Why did I come here for the leader of the alliance and die for the country today? Wouldn't it be happy?" Lu Yihao said, stopping the boat and landing. Zhang Jun clapped his hands and strode into the city arm in arm with Han Shizhong.

That night, Zhang Jun hosted a banquet for Lu Yihao, Zhang Jun, Han Shizhong, Yang Yizhong and dozens of generals. Zhang Jun knew that his qualifications and reputation were not enough to lead this group of tigers and wolves. If something happened midway, the consequences would be disastrous. Thinking of this, Zhang Jun stood up, looked around solemnly, and said: "After five rounds of drinking, Zhang Jun finally asked the generals: Who is disobedient and who is obedient?"

"If I obey, I will rebel." Yang Yizhong and other generals all responded. Zhang Jun then said sincerely: "If I, Zhang Jun, am confused by heaven and rebel, I have a word to deceive you, please immediately take my head and send it to Hangzhou. I will definitely be rich and powerful. Otherwise, anyone who dares to retreat from the battle will be engaged in military law. Don’t blame Zhang Jun for not informing you in advance.”

The generals were excited and shouted to obey the order. Zhang Jun nodded and then issued a military order, ordering Han Shizhong to be the vanguard of the front army, Zhang Jun to use elite soldiers as guerrilla wings, and himself and Lu Yihao to lead the central army. Han Shizhong said: "I am willing to be the vanguard, but I am old and have few soldiers."

"I guarantee that I'll ask Taiwei Zhang to lend two thousand troops to Taiwei Han." Zhang Jun said, bowing to Zhang Jun and asking for the loan of troops. Zhang Jun knew that borrowing troops was basically a matter of borrowing without repayment. He was unwilling to do so, but it was about rescuing someone, so he had no choice but to say: "As long as Mr. Zhang guarantees it, Lao Zhang will obey his orders."

Zhang Jun asked Lu Yihao to write another letter to urge Liu Guangshi. Lu Yihao and Liu Guangshi were enemies, so he threatened in the letter that the national crisis was at hand, and it was the time of fame. If he could work hard and make contributions, he could turn disaster into blessing. A few days later, Zhang Jun still didn't see Liu Guangshi's reply, and without waiting for him, he spread the word to China and abroad, and immediately set off troops to serve the king.

When the news reached Hangzhou, Miao Fu and Liu Zhengyan were naturally horrified. Recently, mutinous soldiers ransacked the homes of Wang Yan and Kang Lu and got almost nothing. They were disappointed and fled. Miao Fu also promoted ministers in the name of Ming Shou's court, but the ministers were either sick or crazy, and they all avoided him for fear of being punished. However, both Miao and Liu placed their bets on Liu Guangshi. Seeing that Liu Guangshi did not send troops, and seeing that Han Shizhong had just arrived in Xiuzhou and did not move his troops, they thought that the alienation plan was successful.

Liu Zhengyan believed that Han Shizhong did not dare to move because his wife Bai was in Hangzhou, so he was afraid of the rat. Zhu Shengfei induced him to say that Han Shizhong was a rude man, and he had three ladies, white, black and yellow. He was short of one white and two women, so instead of taking Bai as a hostage, it would be better to ask the Queen Mother to knight Bai and send Han Shizhong back. By recruiting generals in this way, King Qin's army will surely become disorganized and disintegrate.

Liu Zhengyan disagreed, and Miao Fu thought he was smart. While he agreed to let Bai go to recruit the troops, he also asked the Empress Dowager to kill Zhang Jun to order the generals. Zhu Shengfei was very wary of his soft and hard tactics, so he tried his best to say that the Empress Dowager would not agree to kill Zhang Jun under any circumstances, so it would be better to demote Zhang Jun. Zhang Jun was powerless without military power. Miao Fu then nodded, demoted Zhang Jun to the deputy envoy of the regiment training of Huangzhou, and exiled Chenzhou.

Zhao Gou listened to Wu Shaofen in Xianzhong Temple saying that Empress Dowager Meng had conferred the title of Mrs. Anguo on Bai and asked Han Shizhong to come to her rescue immediately. Bai had fled overnight and was expected to arrive in Xiuzhou tomorrow. Then he smiled, took the bowl and took a sip. Congee said: "The two evil idiots are really incompetent."

"Today the Queen Mother was forced to issue an order to depose Zhang Jun and exile Chenzhou." As soon as Wu Shaofen finished speaking, Zhao Gou accidentally dropped his porridge bowl and said in shock: "All armies and horses are under Zhang Jun's control. Once Zhang Jun loses power, who can be worthy of King Qin?" "Great responsibility"

Wu Shaofen was worried, and Zhao Gou was worried that King Qin's troops would arrive in Hangzhou and they would all be destroyed, so he asked Shaofen to tell Zhu Shengfei to incite rebellion against Miao and Liu, even if he could win over one of them, it would be good. Wu Shaofen nodded and accepted the order.

When Zhu Shengfei received Zhao Gou's secret order, he happened to receive Zhang Jun's appeal against thieves. He read it aloud in the government office, which made him feel more confident: "Since ancient times, words that are disrespectful are said to criticize the public; matters that are disrespectful are called criticism. It shocked the palace; he abolished the establishment without authorization, which was called a great treason, and those who were treasonous and unethical punished the nine tribes. Since Emperor Jianyan came to the throne, he has been frugal, diligent, diligent, and ignored his mistakes. His ministers Lu Yihao, Zhang Jun, Han Shizhong, Zhang Jun, Liu Guangshi, etc. respectfully invite Emperor Jianyan Restoration.”

When Fu Miao heard that Liu Guangshi had also defected to the side of King Qin's army, he couldn't help but gasped and decided to make a desperate move to notify the Jin army and ask them to cross the river quickly and cooperate inside and outside to capture Zhao Gou. Zhu Shengfei was really anxious when he heard this, and he did not hesitate to kill the fish and break the net: "Man Shengfei said that if he offends the general, he will die immediately. If he doesn't say it, he will die at the hands of the rebels someday. Instead of waiting to die, it is better to say it today and then die." Let the general know that I, Zhu Shengfei, am not a living person."
