Chapter 93 The Northern Song Dynasty is about to die, and the two dragons rise up
Chapter 93: The Northern Song Dynasty is about to perish, and the Erlong Mountain Dragon raises its head
The World of Water Margin, at the end of the Northern Song Dynasty, 1125 AD.
Tokyo, Kaifeng Prefecture, Bianjing City, and the imperial palace hall, today's grand dynasty meeting.
Because something big happened!
"Congratulations to Your Majesty, Liao is destroyed!"
The Northern Song Dynasty was bullied by the Liao Kingdom for too long. It was beaten while flattering and tributeing a large number of items. It had been enduring for a long time.
Now that the Jin Dynasty destroyed the Liao Dynasty, it was a gratifying thing for the Northern Song Dynasty, especially for the emperor and the court, it should be celebrated together.
"Okay, OK, great!"
Song Huizong was very happy to hear the news and ordered people to inform the world, and everyone celebrated together.
Most of the people were very happy in the hall, while others were worried.
"Your Majesty, Jin destroys Liao, it is more dangerous than Liao, we should be prepared!"
There are also civil and military officials who are worried about the country and the people, but not many of them are present.
Cai Jing said: "Your Majesty, the old minister suggests congratulations to the Jin Kingdom, and at the same time give the share of the tribute to Liao in previous years to the Jin Kingdom, so that the Jin Kingdom will know our sincerity and will not go south to attack the Song Dynasty."
"I'm going to discuss it!" This suggestion immediately attracted the approval of many civil and military officials present, such as Gao Qiu, Tong Guan, etc.
"Okay, just follow what the Grand Master said."
Song Huizong felt that it was nothing. Who would pay tribute to whom would not pay tribute? Anyway, I was used to it. As long as the Jin Kingdom did not fight against the Song Dynasty, I would be willing to pay more than to pay tribute to Liao.
So Cai Jing and other ministers arranged for the envoy to go to the Jin Kingdom to bring a large amount of good things to congratulate the Jin Kingdom for destroying the Liao Kingdom, and expressed that the Song Dynasty was willing to pay tribute to the Jin Kingdom like tribute to Liao.
"Haha, you Emperors of the Song Dynasty are really interesting. We have accepted the congratulations, but we will take them away as the tribute!"
The Jin Kingdom had just destroyed Liao and was unprecedentedly powerful. He was preparing to attack the Song Dynasty and wanted to destroy the Song Dynasty. How could he be interested in those tributes?
The news came back to Bianjing City.
The Jin Kingdom wanted to go south to attack the Song Dynasty, threatening to capture the emperor alive!
"how so?"
Song Huizong was frightened.
Not long after, Song Huizong suddenly abdicated and abdicated to his son Zhao Huan, who was Song Qinzong.
I thought that if I didn't become an emperor, the Jin Kingdom would not arrest him if I went south.
Zhao Kuangyin, who was in Erlong Mountain, was very angry when he learned about this news. How could there be such descendants of the Zhao family? It was so embarrassing!
Although he already knows the history of the Song Dynasty and what kind of emperor Song Huizong was, his personal experience still makes Zhao Kuangyin angry and feel ashamed.
Not long after, the Jin Kingdom began to attack the Song Dynasty.
In 1126 AD, the Jin army crossed the Yellow River to surround the city of Bianjing. Emperor Qinzong of Song Dynasty Zhao Huan used Li Gang to guard the city, but in the end he chose to seek peace and offered a large amount of gold and silver. Xu seized the three counties including Taiyuan, Hejian, and Zhongshan in Jin.
Only then did the Jin soldiers retreat and the Northern Song Dynasty was able to breathe.
Zhao Kuangyin, Zhang Hao, Lin Chong and others from Erlong Mountain were not idle and began to recruit soldiers and train soldiers on a large scale.
Qingzhou, Erlong Mountain, Liangshan and Shaohua Mountain are mainly places, and the training of troops began to be publicly trained.
Yunzhou where Liangshan is located and the prefecture where Shaohua Mountain is located are already under the control of Erlong Mountain.
"It seems that the Song Dynasty is really going to die!"
"The emperor is incompetent!"
"A treacherous minister destroys the country!"
In front of the Jin army, the Northern Song Dynasty was vulnerable. Zhu Wu, Shi Jin and others now believe that this country is about to perish.
Seeing that the Jin Kingdom had withdrew its troops, Song Qinzong Zhao Huan was persuaded by some pro-war factions, Song Qinzong broke the contract and was not prepared to cede the land to the Jin Kingdom.
This angered the Jin Kingdom.
Emperor Qinzong of Song repented and refused to cede land, which made some aspiring people think that this emperor was very strong.
However, in the first year of Jingkang (1126), after Emperor Qinzong of Song Dynasty Zhao Huan repented of cede land, the Jin Kingdom sent two Jin troops southwards, and after conquering Taiyuan, they joined forces, and went south to siege Bianjing City (Kaifeng).
At this time, Song Qinzong Zhao Huan was afraid. Under the persuasion of the seeking peace faction, Song Qinzong asked Jin for peace again.
This time, the request for peace could not guarantee the Jin Dynasty's congressional agreement, so Song Qinzong adopted the suggestions of others and sent someone a letter to send a letter to order King Kang Zhao Gou to be the Grand Marshal of the Hebei Army and Horses, and summoned all troops to prepare for the king, and then ordered Zong Ze to be the deputy Marshal of the Marshal of the Marshal of the Marshal of the Marshal of the Marshal of the Army and Horses.
The Jin Kingdom indeed rejected Song Qinzong's request for peace and vowed to destroy the city of Bianjing and capture Song Qinzong.
King Kang Zhao Gou, Zong Ze and others quickly envied the troops heading north to fight against the Jin soldiers, hoping to lift the siege of Bian Jing.
at the same time.
A sound of resisting Jin appeared in Erlong Mountain.
Facing this kind of voice, it cannot be suppressed, otherwise it will affect Erlongshan's future anti-Jin event.
But now is not the best time to send troops, so Zhao Kuangyin, Lin Chong, Zhang Hao and others raised the banner of anti-Jin, but before sending troops, they also need to expand their troops, prepare food, grass, and weapons, etc., which will take some time. It is time to send troops.
"Shaohua Mountain is in the northwest and will be an important stronghold for our anti-Jin resistance. Where can the troops, food, grass, and weapons be prepared sufficiently? Order Shi Wengong, Lu Zhishen and others should be ordered to prepare quickly. No troops shall be sent before the order is sent!"
"The location of Liangshan is very important. It is no problem to prepare 20,000 to 30,000 elite soldiers there. The leader now needs you to go to Liangshan to take charge."
"We have basically controlled the governments of the states in Jingdong East Road. Currently, tens of thousands of elite soldiers in these states are mainly concentrated in Qingzhou for training, led by Yue Fei, which is our main force."
"In addition, weapons construction, especially firearms, need to be accelerated..."
"All the spies from the Chivalrous Ministry are dispatched to pay close attention to the situation in various places, especially in places where there is war!"
Zhao Kuangyin made arrangements, and Lin Chong, Yang Zhi, Shi Jin and others must cooperate.
The Chivalrous Department is now a very special department. The gatherings are people with good martial arts skills. They can do things that are chivalrous, assassinate, and inquire about intelligence.
Jing Ke is responsible.
Erlong Mountain is now moving from secret to open, raising the banner of resisting the Jin and protecting the family, and recruiting soldiers.
Because the Jin soldiers went south to Hebei, Henan, and Shanxi people fled to Shandong, which was a great time to recruit soldiers and horses.
It was just that he resisted the Jin and protected the family, and he did not mention the meaning of serving the king at all, which was intriguing.
Erlongshan is now well-known, and after raising the banner of anti-Jin Baojia, it quickly received support and response from many people.
The governments of Shandong prefectures spared no effort to build momentum for Erlong Mountain, providing troops, food, and weapons, and full support.
Those who don’t understand think that Erlong Mountain is deeply loved by the people, so the government has to adapt to the people’s will and give support.
Those who understand will be shocked and afraid, because Erlongshan has quietly controlled the states in Shandong.
Is this a long time ago, what do they want to do?
rebel!
right!
The Song Dynasty is in danger and may perish at any time. Erlongshan wants to rebel!
Some smart people quickly saw some clues.
Gongsun Sheng, the dragon of the Yunlong, is in a Taoist temple, and he is also paying attention to major events in the world, especially Erlong Mountain.
He sighed at this moment: "It turns out that Zhang Hao and Zhang Ke's masters are really laity. The Song Dynasty is about to perish... Song Jiang and us made the wrong choice!"
After receiving the recruitment, Gongsun Sheng lived in seclusion.
Now that the Jin soldiers have moved south twice, there is no place for peace in the northern part.
"Go to Shaohua Mountain to have a look."
He is close to Shaohua Mountain, and I heard that Shaohua Mountain is recruiting righteous men to fight against the Jin Dynasty recently.
