The fierce battles were fought up and down the city walls for one day, and the next day, at noon on September 15, stopped.
When Xue Changgong retreated from the city wall, he was injured again. He was hit by an arrow, and the rest were scratched by arrows. For some reason, he felt that this time the Jurchens siege was not as good as last time.
Fierce, but still put huge pressure on the soldiers in the city.
When the subordinates began to count the wounded soldiers, a flag appeared from far away from the northwest of Bianliang.
The city wall sounded up and down, and everyone was running desperately towards the guard position. Xue Changgong squinted his eyes and looked over there. At the front of the city gate not far away, his Shangguan was holding a long tube-shaped thing.
Looking from a distance, a very excited voice sounded loudly—
On the afternoon of September 14th, Li Qi left Bianliang from the west gate, which had not started the war. The two battles came to the Jurchen barracks. After the announcement, the war on the other side of the city wall continued. Wanyan Zongwang and
A group of Jurchen generals met him, and there was a solemn atmosphere in the big tent.
Unlike the generosity and the urge to die in the Golden Palace, in the camp, Li Qi had almost no terms with Zong Wang. All the conditions were agreed upon, and it seemed that he wanted to scare his Jurchen generals with his black face.
It was quite boring. The two sides signed a peace agreement and listed them all according to Zong Wang's previous request.
That night, Li Fen was left in the Jurchen barracks, but the Jurchens did not give up the attack. On the one hand, they sent the peace agreement back to Bianliang City, and on the other hand, they were still attacking the Bianliang City walls.
In the early morning of that day, Zhou Zhe used a seal on the contract and sent it out of the city. The next day, when it was almost noon, Zong Wang picked an hour and Li Qi officially submitted the contract.
They were not worried that the Wu Dynasty would not admit it, but when they put Li Qi back, variables did happen...
"Supervisor Zhong is here! The Western Army is here! The Western Army is here... "
"Old General! The Young Master Zhong led the army to serve the king and had arrived at the city of Bianliang! The Jurchen army retreated as soon as it heard the news-"
A large amount of news filled the entire capital in half a day. Bianliang became boiling, and Shishi also walked out of the alum building and joined in the fun to watch the Zhong family army enter the city.
Zhou Zhe was also shocked by the sudden good news. At this time, Li Qi had already returned from the peace agreement. He hesitated for a while, took a dragon chariot and went out of the palace to greet the city gate. Seeing the exciting grand occasion in the city, he came again
Cai Jing.
"I am not thinking about the peace talks and regret it. Now it seems that this matter is a misunderstanding. After such a humiliating promise, what kind of face should I have to meet the ancestors and ancestors after my death? Grand Tutor,
Look at this peace agreement. I want to regret it. Is it too late?"
Cai Jing lowered his eyebrows and thought for a moment: "The Master can think clearly, it is really gratifying to stop the horse...uh." He suddenly reacted and bent his knees and knelt down, "The old minister was excited for a moment, saying this ruthless words, please
The Lord surrenders sin!"
Zhou Zhe waved his hand generously: "It's okay, it's okay, I'm having a wrong idea and thinking about something wrong. The Grand Master's words mean that you didn't agree with me from the beginning. You're sitting on my own and watching me make mistakes, so
Sin! Grand Master. Is there such a gap between you and me? In the Grand Master’s heart, I have become unable to listen to honest advice!?”
His words were stern at this time, and Cai Jing became even more trepidated. Zhou Zhe then sighed: "It's okay, it's okay, I and the Grand Master are both wrong. I thought it through clearly at this time. It's not too late, and I will do the whole world.
Even if the people have a reputation for breaking the contract, I have to bear it. Oh... Master, get up quickly, come, I will help you. You are a veteran of the three dynasties. Even if you are a minister, you are also my elder. If I make any mistakes in the future
, You should be straightforward…”
The emperor's chariot was at the gate and received the old commander of the Western Army, Zhong Shidao, at this time.
Over the years, the Western Army has been resisting the invasion of the Western Xia in the northwest. As a general, because of its strength, it was actually quite scared by the court. Among the several families of the Western Army, the Zong family was actually the strongest, and the old general Zong Shi was the old general.
Although the power of Tao is not in the capital, it is the real king of the northwest in Shaanxi.
During the years when Wu Chao joined forces with Jin and resisted Liao, Zhong Shidao had been giving a memorial to the capital, and he raised objections, but the impact was not great. However, because of this position, Zhong Shidao offended Tong Guan, Wang Fu and others
He was very rich. Two years ago, the Liao Kingdom was destroyed and Tong Guan took it back to the six states of Yanyun. His reputation was unparalleled. Zhong Shidao retired in the northwest and has been living a seclusion since then.
This time the Jin people went south and came in full force. The court had just made a strategy to launch the Western Army. After receiving the order, Zhong Shidao set off immediately, joined Yao Pingzhong of the Yao family, led the Yao family's seven thousand infantry and cavalry, and after reaching Luoyang, he replenished his troops.
After reaching more than 15,000, he then headed south with great fanfare. This time he arrived in Beijing, it was indeed because of his fame that made the city boil...
An unusual atmosphere enveloped the capital, and at the same time, it also enveloped the place where several armies such as Wu Rui, Wuwei, and Wusheng were stationed. News of the peace talks between the imperial court and the Jin people had already been spread, but at the same time it was also
There are a lot of information. Among them, Zhong Shidao was appointed as the junior tutor of the prosecutor, the head of the Privy Council, and the Xuanfu envoy of the two rivers of the capital. All the troops and horses were commanded by him. Yao Pingzhong was the commander. On the day Zhong Shidao was promoted,
Qin Siyuan reappeared and served as the right prime minister again.
The capital was changing, and the Jurchens had stopped moving again, but they just sent envoys to the city to allow the Wu Dynasty to quickly fulfill the peace agreement, while the Wu Dynasty began to delay. The atmosphere in the various military camps outside the city began to become more and more stern.
During this period, Zhou Zhe became a little embarrassed. He nodded in the matter of peace talks. The peace talks had been signed. On the surface, he said that he didn't care about breaking the contract, but the words of the Jurchen envoy in the court were getting more and more ugly, and he could not make it clear.
He could never express his acceptance of breaking the contract. At this moment, he felt that many people below might be scolding him, and he could not even defend himself.
Therefore, he has a strong desire to win a beautiful battle.
Zhong Shidao, when Yao Pingzhong entered Beijing, he warmly received these people. After all, Zhong Shidao was old and was slightly ill when he entered Beijing. But his thoughts were very clear. After talking to him, Zhou Zhe
He knew that this man was indeed capable. Yao Pingzhong, a young sect in the Western Army, had never disappointed him. His heroic and fierce spirit made Zhou Zhe feel that it was completely different from these generals in the court.
Although he was usually afraid, he could see the situation clearly at this time. Only the Western Army could fight the whole country.
However, after handing over the unified command of hundreds of thousands of troops outside the city to Zhong Shidao, the old man seemed to be too cautious. At this time, all the Western Army units were gathering, and Zhong Shidao first went south to let Zhong Shidao gather Zhe in the middle of Zhong Shidao.
The family army was also on the way here. The sick old general believed that when all the troops were assembled, Bi Quangong would be the right way. Yao Pingzhong had a different view on this. He felt that the Wu Dynasty had repeatedly delayed it at this time.
There is something wrong, and if you drag it on, I am afraid that the Jurchens will be prepared long ago. Zhou Zhe also agrees with this.
He talked to Yao Pingzhong and Zhong Shidao several times. Not long after, Yao Pingzhong's father Yao Gu led an army of 30,000, which made Zhou Zhe feel even warmer again. He kept urging wars. In this process,
He also saw through some other things.
He also talked about this when he was playing chess with the queen in the bedroom for several consecutive nights.
"Queen, I have seen it clearly. Everyone has their own selfish desires. No matter how old you are or where you are, it is hard to avoid the vulgarity."
"Why did Your Majesty say this?"
"When the old husband came to Beijing, the whole city cheered. It is no exaggeration to say that he is the king of the Northwest. In this battle, I have handed over the command of hundreds of thousands of troops outside the city to him, and Li Xiang will also
Cooperating with him and the elite soldiers of the Yao family, he has been slow to move. Queen, do you know what happened?"
The queen hesitated for a moment: "This battle is due to the fate of our Wu Dynasty. Zhuang Shaobao is more cautious. I think it is inevitable?"
"I have such a consideration." Zhou Zhe smiled, but he had already seen through everything in his heart and paused slightly, "But what he was thinking about was that he didn't want the Yao family army to steal this meritorious service. The leader of the Zhong Shizhong came here, but it was not
Three to forty thousand people, at this time, the army inside and outside the city was nearly 400,000. Even if many people were unbearable, they could still be beaten. It is said that one soldier is a nest, and the general is a nest. Zhong Shidao, Yao Gu,
People like Yao Pingzhong are indeed famous generals of the world. They... may not be afraid of fighting, but in fact... they are all fighting for merit."
The emperor sighed and left a son. The queen was silent for a moment: "What... what is the Lord planning to do?"
"I have talked with them many times, and there are also hints in my words. I just hope that they can work together and not distinguish between each other, so..." The emperor, who has experienced various major events recently, paused and looked at the moon.
The color, the voice slightly lowered, "This... is the blessing of the Wu Dynasty and the blessing of the country..."
The chaotic situation and the unpredictable hearts of the people. The changes inside and outside the city gathered in the sky, and the weather began to turn cold. Near Qi County, September 23, Ning Yi also felt the situation changes for several days.
The change in the atmosphere reached his hands and the situation in the capital began to tighten.
As one of the operators of the Secret Investigation Department, he can indeed master first-hand information in various changes in the current situation. On the other hand, Qin Shaoqian has also received first-hand information from the military. This day
In the afternoon, the two gathered together and exchanged messages.
"Tonight, Yao Pingzhong is going to leave the city and discuss the issue of sending troops with us. I think it is not the intention of Fengzhong's husband..." Qin Shaoqian was a little worried.
Ning Yi nodded: "Master Zhong's voice is too strong. When he entered Beijing, the whole city was shocked. Tong Guan and Wang Fu forced him to retire, but now they were afraid of him. Moreover, the emperor was a little bit towards him.
Fear. You know... the emperor was afraid of the Western Army."
"My father had a little disagreement with him, but if he really wanted to fight, I think he was more reliable than the Yao family..."
Previously, Qin Siyuan was a firm pro-war faction and was the direct behind-the-scenes driver. He was not very good at dealing with Zhong Shidao, who opposed this action. It was just that Zhong Shidao was an army system, so he was with Tong Guan and others.
It just met directly. But at this time, Qin Shaoqian still trusted this old master who was famous all over the world.
However, for him, even as the highest general of Wu Rui camp, these things were not something he could decide or choose.
That night, Yao Pingzhong came over and discussed matters with the leaders of several armies...
On September 24th, the sun sets.
The whole earth started to move quietly.
The sun is not strong, late autumn is passing, the decaying grass is flying into the sky, and winter is coming.
"Brother Yue!"
When he walked to the vicinity of the courtyard, Ning Yi waved to him there, and Yue Fei walked over, and some big cars were parked nearby, and many people followed him.
Ning Yi handed him a military order.
"Brother Yue, you follow us tonight. We want to... protect the things in the car." Ning Yi looked at the sky, "But the weather may be a little bad tonight."
"Young Master Ning, is the war going to start?"
"...It's possible." Ning Yi frowned and paused, "It's possible."
Night begins to fall...
In Moutuogang and Jurchen camp, everything was as usual. After nightfall, it gradually became quiet from noisy, and gradually, people fell asleep.
The powerful scout avoided the patrolling Jurchen racquets and went back in the direction. In the Jurchen camp, where everything was normal, most of the soldiers in armor had already walked out of the camp tent, silently lined up and boarded their horses.
In the dark color, Zong Wang rode on his war horse, perhaps feeling some unusual aura, and the war horse shook his head slightly. Zong Wang bent down and rubbed its neck: "Wow..." He lowered
Speaking.
"You guys, why do people in the Wu Dynasty think that I am afraid of the old man named Zhong Shidao?"
He whispered, and the large number of generals around him did not speak.
——On September 15, after Zhong Shidao arrived in Beijing, the Jurchens who were sieging the city quickly withdrew their troops. On the one hand, the negotiations were completed, and on the other hand, they did not want to fight on both ends. But this tactical normal
The thought seemed to make the Wu Dynasty feel extremely excited. It has been said that the Jurchens retreated due to the arrival of the Zong Shidao. So soon after, when the Jurchen envoy entered Bianliang, under the instruction of Wanyan Zongwang, he was arrogant to others and to Zong.
Teacher, still very respectful.
But as many people present - even Guo Yaoshi - could not understand the reason why the Wu Dynasty people were confident. To make things clear, Master Zhong just resisted the Western Xia in the west. Xixia was amazing, in front of the Liao Kingdom.
, it was just a dead dog, and the Jurchens' achievements destroyed the entire Liao Kingdom in several years.
But it doesn't matter.
After a while, Zong Wang whispered again: "Wu Chao people are so slow..."
...
The army wrapped in horses and feet walked on the field in the darkness.
Most of the infantry also wrapped their boots and carried weapons, moving forward in silence.
When the wind blew over, Yao Pingzhong raised his head.
In different directions, there were a total of 220,000 troops, and on this night, they surrounded Moutuogang!
...
Zong Wang stroked the neck of the war horse and looked at the spy who was half kneeling in front of him who was sending news. The Jurchen war god had a rough face and tall figure. His eyes were now in the dark, but they looked particularly bright and deep. Inside,
It contains the corpses of millions of people.
"Send the whole army." He tied the reins of the horse and said in a low voice, "Go ahead... and trample on them!"
"yes."
Soon after, the sound of horse hooves turned into thunder, and the huge waves were stirred up in the darkness! (To be continued)
ps:ok, the prelude is completed, the dance begins.
