One Piece of Song Dynasty

It is not uncommon for the Song generals to kill each other and take advantage of the situation to annex each other. However, Yue Fei could not believe that Liu Jing, who had been a close comrade when he was staying in Tokyo, and that Liu Jing, who had shared weal and woe after going to Jiangnan, would extend a poisonous hand to him. He made a prompt decision and first led Yao Da, Wang Gui, Yue Fan, Fu Qing and his troops back to Yixing for investigation. The brigade was led by Zhang Xian and must rush back to Zhangzhu before dawn.

Yue Fei rushed to Zhangzhu overnight and learned the conclusive evidence that Liu Jing's men had planned to attack him. He did not hesitate and immediately decided to strike preemptively. That night, his uncle Yao Da lied and said that Yue Fei had not returned and that his mother-in-law had something urgent to discuss with Liu Jing. He took the opportunity to trick Liu Jing into his mother-in-law's courtyard. Fu Qing, Yue Ao and others who had been ambushing in the courtyard swarmed over and hacked him to death. Liu Jing and his soldiers cut off their heads. In the early morning, all the soldiers under Liu Jing's command were summoned to the school grounds, surrounded by Yue Fei's soldiers and horses who rushed back in time. When Liu Jing's soldiers saw the general's head held high in the air, they all woke up from a dream and knelt down to pay homage to the new general Yue Fei.

In order to repay Wang Gui, Yue Fei placed Liu Jing's old army under Wang Gui's command. Wang Gui was overjoyed, while Fu Qing raised his head in surprise, staring at Wang Gui jealously and looking at Yue Fei's back angrily.

At this time, Li Qingzhao was riding on the river at dawn in a canopy filled with collections, still on his way to Quanzhou. After passing Mulan River, we will reach Hui'an by walking a few dozen miles. After Hui'an we will reach the city of Quanzhou, where we can present the bronzes to the imperial court.

Now Li Qingzhao sincerely wants to dedicate the collection to the court. Firstly, the collection is so famous that it has become a burden, and he can use it to wash away his charges. Secondly, these collections belong to the country after all. Thirdly, , not to mention anything else, how much money Li Qingzhao has spent on freight alone in the past few years can no longer afford it at this time.

Every time Li Qingzhao thought about this, Myolie was always puzzled. This was too cheap for the government. These were bought by the master and his wife through frugality, so how come they belong to the country? Li Qingzhao told her: the army and the people, including her Xing'er, all belong to the country. Myolie then thought about it, she might as well donate it, so as not to worry about these things all day long. If something unexpected happened to her, and these precious copper utensils fell into the hands of ignorant people, they would all be melted down and made into rice spoons. After hearing this, Li Qingzhao became even more sad. She and Zhao Mingcheng had been burdened by collecting all their lives, scrimping on food and clothing, and making every effort, but it turned out to be in vain.

On this day, Li Xin was listening to Zhao Ding's performance. Zhao Ding first reported the situation in the north of the Yangtze River and the south of the Yangtze River: After Wu Shu crossed the river and went north, he captured Yangzhou and Chengzhou. Xue Qing, the governor of Tianchang Army, was captured and killed alone. Guo Zhongwei, the governor of Zhenyang, refused to save him and fled to Xinghua. Chuzhou has become an isolated city, and the situation has worsened. Because Zhao Li guarded Chuzhou and locked the throat of the canal, the materials Wu Shu plundered could not be transported to the north. Wu Shu sent an envoy with part of the baggage to persuade Zhao Li to surrender. Zhao Li killed the envoy and accepted all the baggage without ceremony. Wu Shu was furious, and he and Wan Yanchang stationed two camps in the north and south of the canal, surrounding Chuzhou layer by layer. Chuzhou was in danger.

Zhao Ding then mentioned that Yue Fei, the commander of the Huaixi Right Army, had just sacrificed 4 prisoners, including the names of Jurchens, and had all been killed. As for the rest of the prisoners that Yue Fei presented were all prisoners of the Hebei army, Zhao Ding asked for instructions whether to behead them in public. Li Xin shook his head and said: "The Jin army is all descendants of Lianghe. They were originally people of the Song Dynasty. They cannot be killed. Order They belong to the armies.”

Zhao Ding asked again: "Your Majesty, what should I do about Yue Fei? How can I reward him?"

Li Xin replied: "All the generals were stationary. Only Yue Fei was willing to pursue the Jin army. He promoted Yue Fei to be the envoy of Tongtai Town. He was also informed of Taizhou. He was given money, Wan Guan, a hundred pairs of iron armor, gold belts, saddles, horses, gold-plated spears, Baihua robe and other things were given as a reward, and he continued to urge Liu Guangshi to rescue Chuzhou and let Yue Fei go too."

Zhao Ding bowed and said: "Yes, I understand, Your Majesty, it is reported that Han Shizhong will arrive today."

Li Xin said: "Okay, I will go to the military camp now, and Yuan Zhen will go to work first."

At this time, Han Shizhong led hundreds of defeated soldiers who had just arrived at Quanzhou City. After the Battle of Huangtiandang, he went to the court one after another to complain about his poverty. However, the court only asked him to lead his troops back and did not say anything else.

The shouts of killing in the military camp outside Quanzhou City shook the sky. Han Shizhong was perked up after hearing this. When he arrived at the gate of the military camp, the guard came up and clasped his fists and said: "This general is Han Shizhong, Han Jiedushi"

Han Shizhong nodded and said, "This is Han Shizhong."

The gatekeeper said: "Then Han Jiedu, please come in."

After Han Shizhong led hundreds of soldiers into the military camp, he happened to meet Zhang Jun. Han Shizhong signaled: "Bo Ying, come here quickly."

Zhang Jun saw that it was Han Shizhong and hurried over and said, "You old Han Huang Tiandang played well."

Han Shizhong waved his hand and said: "Stop talking, I've almost lost all my capital, and there are only a few hundred people left. Boying, let me ask you, what's going on in this military camp, why are there so many well-trained soldiers around the emperor?" Soldier."

Zhang Jun pulled Han Shizhong aside and said with a bitter smile: "What are the emperor's soldiers? These are not the emperor's soldiers at all. Now the emperor doesn't know whether he is dead or alive."

Han Shizhong was shocked and said: "What's going on? A few months ago, the emperor gave me an order to lead troops to intercept the Jin army on its way back. I was thinking that the emperor had become smarter and knew that before the Jin people returned, The time has come."

Zhang Jun patted Han Shizhong on the shoulder and said: "Old Han, we have all been deceived. The emperor has disappeared since the third day of the first lunar month. The person giving orders behind is no longer the emperor. The world of Song Dynasty has changed."

Han Shizhong said anxiously: "What's going on? Boying, tell me quickly."

Then Zhang Jun told Han Shizhong everything he knew. After hearing this, Han Shizhong was shocked and said: "In other words, the person giving orders in the Song Dynasty now is the prince, and the commander-in-chief of the army under the prince is Liu Fa, the former commander-in-chief of our Western Army. .”

Zhang Jun nodded and said: "Exactly. Although you and I often fought and disliked each other before, you dared to prick Liu Shuai in front of me anyway."

Han Shizhong shook his head and said: "I don't dare. Although I have never served as a soldier under Liu Fa, I still know his reputation. He is a famous commander of our Western Army who can be as famous as Mr. Zhong."

Zhang Jun said: "No, the good days for you and me are over. Although we now hold the title of Jiedushi, we do not have the power of Jiedushi. From now on, we will only be given military power at most." After saying this, Zhang Junyong His eyes glanced at Han Shizhong's expression.

Han Shizhong said: "If it's gone, it's gone. As long as I can lead the troops to fight." Although Han Shizhong said this, he was still a little disappointed in his heart. After all, power is so attractive. Countless people have died fighting for power since ancient times. people, but there are still countless people fighting for power.
