Quick Travel: Dream Hunt

Being in Bianliang is like a dream. There is good food and drink, and you can sleep soundly. There is no fighting. As long as you work, you will get the corresponding reward. In fact, the Song Dynasty is quite good. It is completely different from the Jin Dynasty, the Jin soldiers thought as they drank water.

It took three whole days of boiling the puppet water before all 70,000 or so Jin soldiers could drink a bowl of it. In order to test the efficacy of the pill, Ting He took the risk of asking the patrol team to release all the Jin soldiers out of the city and told them to fend for themselves outside, but not to burn, kill or loot. If they did not want to return to Bianjing City, they could go back to Jin and assassinate the Jin upper echelons.

Although the old ministers were a little frightened when they saw the 70,000 Jin troops coming out in a dense stream, their eyes flashed with fear as they clenched their fists.

But seeing how calm Princess Roufu was, everyone thought that the water was poison. They must have wanted the Jin soldiers to finish their work and die outside after drinking the poison. If the poison was not serious, they might be able to rush back to the Jin Kingdom as fast as possible.

Who would have thought that three days later, the Jin army, which had marched hundreds or even thousands of miles, would turn back. Some thousands of them had been marching towards the Jin Kingdom non-stop for three days without any dry food.

There were actually more than 60,000 people left, and only a few thousand left. It was not known whether they were useless or ran back to assassinate the top leaders of the Jin Dynasty.

Seeing more than 60,000 Jin soldiers guarding the city gate tower, the patrol team felt a little nervous and reported it to Princess Roufu.

When Ting He came, the Jin soldiers were probably only concerned with their journey and had not eaten enough for three days. She curled her lips slightly and said:

"It's time to open the city gates and test the results."

Although the people of Song Dynasty were puzzled, they did not refute Princess Roufu. They stood beside her and protected her silently.

When 60,000 people squeezed into the city, they knelt on the ground and shouted in the unfamiliar language of the Song Dynasty:

"Ah, Princess Roufu of the Song Dynasty is our master. From now on, we will abandon the Jin surname and bloodline, and willingly surrender to the Song Dynasty. We will eat the food of the Song Dynasty, drink the water of the Song Dynasty, be the lowest class of the Song people, do the hardest work, and be the most dedicated soldiers..."

Without waiting for them to finish, Ting He raised his hand to ask them to stop, and then said:

"Do you know your responsibilities? As a Song citizen, you will do the dirtiest and most tiring work. You will be the vanguard in battles, you will be the ones farming and reclaiming wasteland, and you will be the ones building your country. Don't worry, we Song have always been known for our benevolence. As long as you surrender sincerely, we will not exclude you."

After performing a play, I heard He pointed to the most remote corner and said:

"Look, see? You live there first. From tomorrow on, you will be responsible for the construction of the outer city of Bianjing. Starting from the tower, about 500 miles ahead, it's all your territory. The time to test you has come. Remember, don't embarrass me, Princess Roufu, otherwise there will be only one result, and that is death."

The scene of more than 60,000 people kneeling on the ground was still very spectacular. The old ministers shed tears, praising Princess Roufu for her power, thanking Taizu for his blessings, and shaking their heads and cursing the uselessness of Emperors Huizong and Qinzong.

You see, when the enemy was at the gates, they could pack up their families and send them to the Jin army's lair, but when Princess Roufu temporarily took over the throne, she actually used a strategy to easily annihilate the 100,000 Jin soldiers down to 30,000.

It took less than a month to bring a total of 60,000 to 70,000 Jin troops under his command and let them participate in the construction of the huge Bianliang. I'm afraid that the Song Dynasty is only one opportunity away from rising. In other words, it has been thriving under the leadership of Princess Roufu. It's a bit alarmist to say that they are no longer afraid of the Jin army, but isn't it more than enough to resist the 100,000-strong Jin army?

The Song Dynasty is rapidly developing agriculture, large-scale infrastructure, manufacturing, creative industries and never-ending military training. Everything is moving in a positive direction.

The Song Dynasty's military strength began to increase visibly, and the military appearance became increasingly tidy. Under strict training, the soldiers' combat effectiveness continued to improve and their morale was high.

With the support of prosperous agriculture and the development of manufacturing and creative industries, the Song Dynasty's military equipment was fully guaranteed. Sophisticated weapons and equipment were constantly manufactured and added to the army.

At the same time, the Song Dynasty actively expanded its frontiers and, through a series of strategic measures, consolidated its border defenses and expanded its territory. In several wars against the Jin army, the Song Dynasty's army demonstrated its powerful strength, which frightened the enemy.

The stability and prosperity in the city of Bianjing also provided a solid foundation for the military development of the Song Dynasty. The people's sense of identity with the country continued to increase, and they all supported the construction and development of the army.

As time goes by, the Song Dynasty will gradually become a military power and will shine brightly on the stage of history in the future.

……

Ting He had no delusion of changing history, nor did she personally kill any of the upper class, but as time went by, the tiny butterfly wings just flew and flew in the long river of history, and without losing a single soldier, she seized tens of thousands of years of military power of the Jin Kingdom.

Then they made use of the tens of thousands of troops of the Jin Dynasty to build infrastructure and farm in their spare time, and then sent these troops out to fight against the Jin Dynasty when war broke out.

A few small-scale battles slowly allowed the Song Dynasty to once again gain tens of thousands of troops. It was unknown whether the Jin Kingdom, which claimed to have a million strong army, would be so angry after losing hundreds of thousands of Jin troops that it would send troops to strangle them again.

It was widely rumored among common people all over the world that, since the collapse of the Northern Song Dynasty, Emperors Huizong and Qinzong were accepted back to the Jin Kingdom only after they sold out their country and women as token of their surrender. Although no one knew what happened in the middle that made the Jin monarch release the women and their families, this was indeed the only thing the Jin Kingdom did that was not despised by the common people.

However, I am afraid that what the Jin Kingdom regretted the most was releasing those women. Who could have thought that the Song Dynasty, which had lost its emperor, could develop so rapidly under the leadership of several princesses and girls, and even dared to openly challenge the Jin Kingdom. They even thought that Zhao Gou, the orphan of the Zhao family left behind by the Song Dynasty, was the only and last hope of their Song Dynasty.

But who would have thought that although the men of the Song Dynasty had no skills and were mostly useless, the women were all strong-willed, ambitious, and responsible. Moreover, the princesses were not only beautiful and kind-hearted, but also extremely smart and resourceful. They were able to drag the Northern Song Dynasty back from the stage of history. It was simply undeniable that the Song Dynasty's fate was not over yet.

Ting He had just boiled the water for the puppet pills and had the Jin soldiers line up to drink the medicine. When they were exhausted, the spy came to report:

"Your Excellency Roufu, the Jin soldiers are enraged and have joined forces with Mongolia and Xixia. The three kingdoms' 800,000 troops are continuing to march, and their destination is Bianjing, the capital of the Song Dynasty."

Ting He put down the ladle in his hand, his eyes flashed fiercely, and he frowned and said:

"Pass the order, all the Song people outside the capital quickly return to the capital, let all the soldiers guard the east, west, south and north cities, let the Jin Song army guard the outer city, and be ready to replace each other's vanguard at any time."

After making the arrangements, she handed the task of scooping water to her sister, Princess Shunde, and returned to her bedroom. She wanted to make the most of her time to catch up on some sleep, because she was afraid that she would have work to do again late at night.
