Chapter 545: Mo Da Yan

Although the sudden thought was a bit absurd, Zhao Kuangyin knew in his heart that it was more of anger towards the incompetence of Huizong and Qinzong.

"This Qinzong has the ability to suck the marrow out of the bones, but he has no backbone to defend the city against the enemy."

"The Huizong is generous, five million taels of gold!"

Speaking of this number, Zhao Kuangyin wanted to curse again, but he only regretted that he could not find the right person - he couldn't vent his anger on the eunuchs, right?

At this moment, he regretted that his brother was not around at this time. According to the diagnosis of the imperial physician, Zhao Guangyi should have recovered from his injuries at this time, but he was just a little lame.

But it was obviously more absurd to summon his brother at this moment, so the Northern Song Dynasty official could only grind his back teeth and said hatefully:

"Don't talk about five million taels of gold. As long as the bandits come to ask for it, even if it is five million taels of millet, it is nothing!"

Under the political struggle, Li Gang was forced to take charge of the second Taiyuan Battle, but in fact, although Li Gang's fighting spirit was commendable, his military ability was indeed mediocre.

But this was not the end. Zhao Kuangyin was still not satisfied. He turned around and ordered:

The soldiers and civilians of the three towns in Hebei all chose to refuse to accept the imperial edict brought by the angel and were determined to fight.

"This money is used to train and reward the army. Why is it so embarrassing?"

The Battle of Taiyuan can be said to be the last blow of the Song Dynasty, but this blow was extremely weak.

The Northern Song Dynasty court rescued Taiyuan twice during the entire battle.

The censors at that time had submitted a report, believing that Li Gang "did not know the military, and the soldiers would surely be defeated", and very bluntly said that Li Gang's appointment as commander was "trapped by the ministers" and "should not be sent away".

...

Zhao Pu took the opportunity to praise Zhao Kuangyin's words: "What the official said is clear and reasonable!"

[The battle of the Northern Song Dynasty's demise was not so heart-wrenching.

In the Han General's Mansion, Zhang Fei pointed at the light curtain with a worried look on his face:

At the same time, under the request of the war faction headed by Li Gang, Qinzong's attitude changed again in Bianliang, and he decided to break the contract and fight against Jin to rescue Taiyuan.

"Such a traitorous agreement is still being offered by all means. Isn't it stupid?"

Zhao Pu was silent, and finally nodded heavily, so a suppressed cry rang out in the hall. This was not for himself, but because he saw the text on the light curtain that the younger generation could not bear to read:

Long-distance saddle horses, wind and rain, hunger and cold, death and death, women and children who could not ride were abandoned along the way...

Unfortunately, Qinzong was furious and forced Li Gang to lead the army.

The ugly history of the fall of the Northern Song Dynasty is rare, and it is difficult to describe one or two of them no matter how many words are used, so it is better to record a few briefly.

The Southern Song Dynasty literati recorded "Jing Kang Miscellaneous History" and lamented: Since ancient times, there has been no shameful loss of a country like the Zhao Song Dynasty. Reading these seven Jing Kang Miscellaneous History, how can one not cry!

"This can also accumulate some virtues, so that you can be a beast lamb!"

In the Bianliang Palace, even if Liu Han, the Shangyao Fengyu, was no longer familiar with military affairs, he could still understand the simple changes in the national borders. Suddenly hearing about such a matter concerning his life and family, Liu Han couldn't help but collapse.

Several people in the mansion looked at each other, and finally Jian Yong sighed:

"It is better to be a dog in peacetime than a person in troubled times."

"Brother, is this imperial examination really a system that will benefit the country and the people?"

To be fair, Liu Bei had discussed it privately with several military advisors before. Whether it was Kong Ming or Pang Tong, or even Lu Zijing who said that he only talked about "light curtains and academic research", they all believed that the institutional foundation of the Northern Song Dynasty had many things worth learning from.

After the Jin army was ready, it marched south again and surrounded Kaifeng again. Sun Bo, the prime minister of the Northern Song Dynasty, entrusted Guo Jing, who claimed to be able to summon heavenly soldiers with the Six Jia method, with a military mission and a reward of money and a house.

A not-so-white face was full of rising anger. The voice was not loud, but every word seemed to burst out from the roots of teeth:

"How can Huiqin have the face to live in the world?"

But in this crucial battle that truly determined the fate of the Northern Song Dynasty, Qinzong played the excellent tradition inherited from Zhao Er.

Li Gang himself knew that he had submitted several petitions to resign and said that his death was not a pity, but if he died and harmed the country, he would not regret it.

"This is why the good ministers of the Northern Song Dynasty wanted to reform."

Where are the garrison soldiers? Liu Bei, who was born in Hebei, felt heartbroken even after a thousand years.

In less than a hundred years, the officials who came out of the imperial examination had turned around and questioned and wanted to reform the imperial examination, which Kong Ming appreciated very much.

"You bastard monkey, if you have some face, why don't you commit suicide early so as not to embarrass the Song people who want to fight!" Even Liu Han nodded in agreement. Although he didn't know military and national affairs, how could he not understand if the government compared it to jackals? The Yongle Encyclopedia of the Ming Dynasty recorded: The Jingkang Change was the greatest shame. 】 Just like the late imperial examinations, although there were many people with high ambitions but low skills, Wang Anshi and his colleagues who were keen on reforming the law also came from the imperial examinations. Although he said so, his brother-in-law had done something wrong more than once or twice, so Liu Bei just glanced at him and said: Where does the food and grass come from? Just thinking about it makes people feel chilly. Hunters in the prefectures and villages have only seen people killing jackals with traps and crossbows, but have never seen people feeding jackals and not attacking. In the first rescue of the Battle of Taiyuan, the Song army was in an advantageous position, but it was still defeated in the end. The death of Zhong Shizhong basically doomed the Northern Song Dynasty, because the literati and officials behind him started to make trouble again.

Killing people is like cutting hemp, and the stench spreads for hundreds of miles...

The first time was when Zhong Shizhong, a famous general of the Zhong family, was ordered to lead the army to rescue, but in the end, because the friendly army was afraid of fighting and lied about military intelligence, the reinforcements were delayed. Zhong Shizhong's troops fought a bloody battle with the Jin army at Shaxiongling. Zhong Shizhong died in the battle despite being seriously injured, and his troops were completely destroyed.

Li Gang was demoted in the name of "specializing in war discussions and losing troops and money". After eight months of bitter resistance in Taiyuan, the soldiers and civilians died for the country.

Yin Shu, a famous general from the Jin Kingdom, could command Ruoding and concentrated his superior strength to defeat the Song army one by one. The second battle of Taiyuan also failed.

Empress Qinzong could not bear the humiliation and left a message when she passed away:

In the past, I lived in the sky with pearl palaces and jade palaces. Now I live in the grass and grass. What can I say? I humiliate my body and ambition, I hate when it will snow, I vow to return to the spring as soon as possible, this sorrow can be eliminated.

Dispelling Yide's strange anger, Liu Bei stood up and looked at the map hanging beside him.

After Kaifeng was besieged, Guo Jing ordered the city gates to be opened and the "Liujia soldiers" selected based on their birth dates to go into battle. The city was destroyed and the country was destroyed.

Women are divided into everyone... nine out of ten are prostitutes... their bodies and lives are also destroyed...

The picture imagined from the words made Liu Han's body tremble a little and his stomach spasmed. He subconsciously bowed his waist and then glanced at Guan Jia's cheek.

Liu Bei really didn't know how to evaluate these things.

Liu Han thought clearly that his family was in Cangzhou, and now he was an official in Bianliang. His descendants could not escape from these two places, and they would not be able to escape the disaster of national subjugation.

He stretched out his hand and compared it, and based on the simple arithmetic method he had recently learned, Liu Bei also estimated:

Among them, the speed of travel is secondary. The most incomprehensible thing is that it can complete the measures to surround Kyoto while going deep into the enemy's territory.

"If you use swords and weapons to drive away wolves, you will be safe; if you use food and meat to drive away wolves, you will perish!"

"From Youzhou to Chenliu...it's more than 1,500 miles, and it takes one month."

Although Li Gang was in command, the generals in each department actually took orders directly from Qin Zong who was far away in Bianliang. Although the Song army was powerful, they were all slow to respond and fought independently because they had to pass news to and from Bianliang and were not under each other.

"As long as states and counties block it, it won't be..."

Zhao Pu subconsciously wanted to help him up, but he met Liu Han's red eyes:

"Mr. Zhao, my descendants have suffered such humiliation, haven't they?"

"Since Zhao Jiong is happy with the auspiciousness, he will turn his house into a temple. I will take the initiative and write an ultimatum. Eat fast and recite sutras every day, and do not cause harm to others."

Zhao Pu bowed and accepted the order.
