Chapter 477 Advance the Song Army on the Liaodong Peninsula

Zhao Gou is obviously still digesting it.

Zhao Ning said: "This matter can be started from Wensi Yuan under Taifu Temple. Wensi Yuan will undergo internal restructuring. All workers will sign a contract for the new trading company and state their monthly salary."

"Wouldn't that be a mess?"

"How did it get messed up?"

"I can't tell you for a while."

What Zhao Gaozhao said is that the maids in the Wensi Academy who were engaged in textiles were dependent on the palace in their life relationships.

But if Zhao Ning launches a new trading company contract, the social relationship between the palace maids and Wensiyuan will change.

From dependence to employment.

What are the benefits of this?

This can greatly enhance the enthusiasm of those in the Institute of Arts and Sciences to work and improve production efficiency.

Zhao Ning thought, since the bank's agricultural loan business is doing well, it means that the bank's internal administrative system has been initially improved.

Then you can try more complex business loans.

This will undoubtedly have a huge role in promoting the development of business.

However, due to the limitations of the Song Dynasty's own infrastructure, the development of commercial loans must be done step by step and as a trial first.

If a formal social organization like a company is formed through this, it will undoubtedly be a comprehensive upgrade of the internal mobilization system of the Song Dynasty.

By then, not to mention destroying Xixia, the logistics of destroying Jin may not be under pressure. I am afraid that the bulldozing of Goryeo will not be a problem.

As for recovering the Western Regions, it may only be a matter of time.

With this kind of new trading company, it was possible to build a large fleet and carry out larger-scale commercial transactions to Southeast Asia.

After returning to the palace, Zhao Ning summoned Wang Zonglio and told him about the restructuring of Wensi Academy.

Wang Zonglio didn't ask in detail, whatever the Zhao Guan family wanted to do, just do it.

Time flies by so fast, and it’s already early February.

At this time, the situation on the northern front was becoming more and more tense day by day, and various rumors were pouring in.

Some people say that the Jin Army has gathered 100,000 troops in Zhending Mansion, while others say that they also saw the Jin Army in Hejian Mansion.

Others say that the Jin army has crossed the Yellow River, entered the territory of Cangzhou, and is rapidly heading south to Jinan Prefecture.

What's more, there are rumors that the main force of the Jin army has besieged Taiyuan Prefecture.

It's as if the war has been fully ignited.

Fucheng Economic and Strategy Department.

Zhang Xian walked in and said: "Commander Yue, we just received the latest intelligence from the front line. The Jin Army has gathered a lot of troops in the Yanyun area."

"How many exactly?"

"We couldn't detect it, but it's said to be no less than 150,000."

Everyone took a breath, 150,000?

If we add the troops of Zhending, Zhongshan and Hejian, wouldn't the total strength of the Jin army this time be nearly 300,000?

This will definitely be a fierce battle.

During this period, reports from the frontline troops were constantly being delivered to Tokyo City.

For a time, the entire city of Tokyo fell into a state of tension.

Just when Hebei and Hedong were shrouded in huge war clouds, something happened in the Liaodong Peninsula that changed the situation of the six-year war in Jingkang.

On the first day of February, the southernmost point of Liaodong.

Han Shizhong suddenly led an army of 10,000 people and appeared in Fuzhou City in the Kingdom of Jin.

As the southernmost state city of the Jin Kingdom in the Liaodong Peninsula, Fuzhou was not particularly large, and it was unlikely that there would be many troops stationed there.

They were just some soldiers who maintained local order, numbering no more than a thousand.

During the Liao Kingdom, this was a sparsely populated area.

Because this place is the farthest from Liaoyang, it is also the place with the weakest strategic value.

Moreover, there are many mountains and not much fertile land, so the tax value is naturally low.

After the Jin Kingdom took over, it was even more impossible to transfer a large number of people here.

This most inconspicuous place actually affected the overall situation at the beginning of the sixth year of Jingkang.

It was the morning of the fifth day of February when Han Shizhong's Liaodong Army arrived at Fuzhou City.

At this time, the surrounding ice and snow had just melted some, and it was still very cold.

Fuzhou City, about three meters high, emerged in the light after dawn.

The soldiers on duty on the tower were not on guard, but were dozing around the fire.

In the quiet morning, they were soon awakened by the sound of neat footsteps and the sound of wheels crushing snow in the snow.

A soldier who got up to pee turned around and saw a dense darkness ahead in the dimness. He was stunned.

Fuzhou City never dreamed that one day it would be surrounded by ten thousand troops.

When the news reached the Yamen of Fuzhou City, Li Jian, the magistrate of Fuzhou, was stunned.

Han Shizhong adopted the tactic of being surrounded on all sides.

The reason for this is to prevent someone from escaping and spreading the news.

Han Shizhong said: "Who wants to play forward?"

Zhang Qing came out: "I will go there eventually!"

"Okay! I'll give you three thousand men to capture Fuzhou!"

"The last general takes command!"

Not long after, the war drums of the Song Army sounded, followed by the sound of horns.

After hearing this, the people in Fuzhou City all showed horrified expressions.

When he arrived at the city tower, he saw the word "Song" written on the flags of the army below, and knew that this was actually the Song army.

Li Jian shouted loudly: "This is the state capital of the Jin Dynasty. How dare you invade at will? Aren't you afraid that our heavenly soldiers of the Jin Dynasty will crush you into powder! Why don't you retreat quickly, otherwise..."

Obviously, Han Shizhong was not prepared to listen to his nonsense.

The vanguard carried ladders and quickly headed back and forth to the city.

Li Jian immediately turned around and shouted: "Why don't you rush to the city to meet Master Wang!"

Just when Zhang Qing thought he could kill the enemy and make a contribution, he saw the white flag on the top of the city.

Zhang Qing: That Zhizhou just said a tough word and then he softened up!

On the first day of February, Han Shizhong captured Fuzhou, the southernmost part of Liaoyang Prefecture, without bloodshed, like a sharp sword, hanging in the rear of the Jin Kingdom.

A large number of soldiers and civilians of the Song Army began to dig trenches and cut trees in an organized manner in the Fuzhou area.

Every day, a large amount of food is transported from the southernmost town of Duli to the north.

All the people in Fuzhou were recruited.

And even faster, people from the engineering battalion began to build brick and tile factories in Fuzhou.

This means that the Song Army intends to increase defense on the basis of Fuzhou City.

The emergence of professional engineering battalions made the Song Army's subsequent handling of the occupied areas more comfortable.

Building the capital and capturing Fuzhou is the first step in the Liaodong strategy.

The second step is to announce the defense system with Fuzhou as the core and gain a firm foothold here.

Han Shizhong also made a careful inspection of this area.

If the Jin army heard that Fuzhou was captured by the Song army, they would definitely be on pins and needles and send their army south.

If the Jin army did not attack Fuzhou first, but instead went to capture the southernmost capital and cut off the food supply of the Song army in Fuzhou, the Song army would collapse without a fight.

Therefore, quickly improving the capital city is the top priority now.

Only when Duli City and Fuzhou form a pattern of mutual support can they strengthen their defense.

On the eighth day of February, a group of businessmen who came south from Gaizhou entered the territory of Fuzhou and discovered that something was wrong. The news that Fuzhou was occupied spread out.

On February 11, the news reached Liaoyang, which aroused the surprise of Liaoyang officials.

But at this time, Liaoyang officials still could not determine whether the news was true or false, so they could only send people to verify it.
