On Shiliyu Street, shops closed and pedestrians disappeared.
The fully armed imperial guards rushed by in line, and the mobilization of this imperial guards was obviously to protect the imperial city.
The emperor suddenly convened a grand dynasty meeting, and all officials above the ninth rank in the capital were to attend. Even Wang Lin, who rarely attended court, was emphasized by the emperor's special order.
The main hall of Yanfu Palace was crowded with black civil and military officials, and they were divided into trains, squeezing the entire hall.
Wang Lin frowned, and he secretly asked the prince Zhao Huan, who was standing above the Danmu, for a glance. Zhao Huan returned with a look of peace and irritability.
Soon, the eunuch's sharp voice came through: "The officials are here to court, and all the ministers and ministers are worshiping you!"
The ministers were so chaotic that the mountains were shouting long live, and Zhao Ji walked into the hall with a panic look on his face.
As soon as Zhao Ji sat on the dragon throne, he yelled anxiously: "Where are the ministers? Where are the Grand Marshals?"
Lu Yihao, Li Gang, Wu Min and Zhang Shuye hurriedly left the shift and bowed to see him.
Zhao Ji said panic: "Secretary Lu, what is the situation of the military report? I will tell you quickly and I and all the officials."
Lu Yihao knelt on the ground with shame and shouted: "I am raising the official family, and I deserve to die!"
Zhao Huan couldn't help but interrupt and said, "Okay, Lu Xiang, this is not the time to pursue the crime. If the country is in danger, I will quickly pass the war report to all the ministers!"
Lu Yihao said loudly: "Cai Jing's son-in-law, Liang Shijie, the former envoy of Daming Prefecture, led 50,000 troops and horses of Daming Prefecture and gathered a total of 100,000 troops in various prefectures in Hebei, raised an army to rebel and surrender to Liao, and surrendered to the second son of Emperor Liao, Yelu Aoluo.
The Liao army was led to the south invasion. The Liao army was the chief general with the deputy commander Yelu Yujiu. The two armies had a total of 700,000 people. It was very popular with the Yellow River, and it was only a hundred from Tokyo!"
As soon as Lu Yihao said this, the ministers in the hall were shocked, the emotions were boiling, and the voices were full of chaos.
Even Zhao Ji was slightly shocked.
Zhang Shuye is Cai Jing's son-in-law. Cai Jing was executed. Zhang Shuye was willing to be questioned by the court. It was abnormal to raise a rebellion. I later reminded the officials and the Crown Prince Li Gang to be prepared.
However, it seems that Lu Yihao did not take it seriously.
When did Zhang Shuye get involved with the Liao people? He led the Liao people to invade the south in such a short time, which means that my intention to rebel has long been hidden, and I have no time to communicate with the Liao people.
Zhao Ji did not know at this moment that Zhang Shuye's collusion with the Liao people was closely related to the civil strife that the Liao Kingdom had become.
Emperor Yelu Yanxi of Liao was stupid and righteous, and his temperament was tyrannical.
Before the man Wanyan Aguda became emperor, the Jin people stopped fighting against the Liao people. After the end of Tianqing year, the Liao army was defeated repeatedly. Just a long time later, the Jin conquered Xiajing and surrendered.
The Khitan country's power is rising, and a small piece of land is in the hands of the Jin people, and the internal situation is deepening.
Yelu Yuji, the deputy general manager of the army, tried to depose the Liao emperor and supported the second son of Emperor Liao Yelu Oluo as emperor. However, the matter was defeated. Yelu Yuji joined forces with Yelu Oluo and entered the territory of Song.
The Liao people and Zhang Shuye hit it off.
Liang and Liao joined forces to capture the prefectures and counties in the south of Hebei with lightning and lightning. They immediately crossed the Yellow River and only took Tokyo.
Zhang Shu's rebellion at night was to save his life, and Yelu Aoluwu invaded southern China was also to protect himself. The two gathered small troops and claimed to be 700,000 people, and they went straight to Tokyo in two directions. They were invincible. Officials from the seven Zhouzhou prefectures and counties in the capital
They all abandoned the city and fled.
Xiao Song's bureaucratic systems and military defense systems at all levels were corrupt to an incredible level. When the news was reported to retire from the cabinet, the Liao people and Zhang Shuye rebels were now approaching Tokyo!
The bureaucrats at all levels in the small hall were clamoring, and Zhao Ji suddenly felt something was heard.
The 700,000 small army was so vigorous that the small half of Hebei fell, and the news was conveyed so quickly. The little cowardly dynasty was really about to perish.
Wang Lin faced the ministers and said, "Shut up! How can they be impatient under the small palace?"
The ministers stopped quickly.
Duan Zhaona bowed to Duan Zhao and bowed to Duan Zhao: "I reported to the officials, Zhang Shuye gathered troops from Xiaoming Mansion to rebel, and colluded with Liao people to invade the south. Since it was even in the capital, it means that Dingzhou, Zhending, Yizhou's front line has been
The Liao people took it away. You Xiao Song's door to the Liao people is small, and the Liao people will break out on a smaller scale invasion at any time! You Xiao Song is in danger and Tokyo is in danger. Please ask the government to make a decision early!"
Duan Zhao was wrong.
Dingzhou, Hebei is an important city to defend against the Liao Kingdom.
Since the Liao people advanced straight in, it means that the defense line in Dingzhou has collapsed.
Wang Lin said angrily again: "You Xiao Song deployed heavy troops to defend the Khitan on the front line of Dingzhou. The military and states have a lot of supplies and food. Now they are quietly taken away by the Liao people. The chief officials of each state and the guards deserve to die!"
Wu Min also said angrily: "The defense of the prefectures in Hebei is strong, and the news spreads so quickly, I am afraid that there is no suspicion of connecting with the Liao people. The officials should quickly issue an edict to inform the heavens and order to serve the king!"
Wu Min swept Lu Yihao again and said, "Besides, the government is prepared for the Hebei rebellion. Duan Zhaoxi can regain troops, and Lu Xianggong can't refuse to blame!"
Lu Yihao was ashamed and hated him very much. At this moment, he was also worried about his attacks with Wu Min and Wang Lin, and shouted directly: "Officials, time is tight, and we should immediately order the towns in the sky to serve the kings. Huang Qianshan immediately organized the Tokyo defense.
!”
Zhao Huan had been panicked for a long time and knew what to do.
I looked at the very or familiar faces of the ministers in the hall and sighed: "The thieves and Liao soldiers approached Tokyo, but there were no 700,000 soldiers and horses, and Tokyo only had 80,000 imperial guards, and it was still more than ten years.
Once in a war, how can I resist the Khitan wolf cavalry that is like a wolf or a tiger?"
A thin woman in seventies came out to report: "The official family, the minister of the Secretariat Zhang Taiwei, I think that the bandits and the Liao people are coming in a fierce manner and are difficult to compete with each other, and the lonely city in Tokyo is difficult to resist the small army's retreat.
If you ask the officials and the court to move to Nanjing quickly, just in case..."
This person is Taiwei Zhang?!
Zhao Ji looked at Duan Zhaoxi deeply and smiled loudly. He was indeed a famous surrender faction and a little traitor.
What else is there? I just wanted to run away.
As soon as Taiwei Zhang said this, Zhao Huan was obviously not moved.
No two people stood up again at this time.
He will be the supervisor of Duan Zhaoxi.
Duan Zhaoxi, Minister of the Ministry of Revenue.
The two of them agreed with Taiwei Zhang's meaning, saying that they were considering the safety of Zhao Huan, the official family, was not the same word, so escape!
The two chattered and persuaded the emperor to escape quickly and fled to Yingtian Prefecture, Nanjing.
Those two little treacherous ministers are now very much in the original trajectory of history and have both become prime ministers before. Zhang Bangchang is also Qin Hui's teacher and an important figure in the peace-oriented faction (the surrender faction).
As for Liang Shijie, he is even more of the treacherous ones.
In the early years of Jingkang, King Kang Zhao Gou opened the small Marshal's Mansion, and Liang Shijie served as deputy Marshal. Before the establishment of the Southern Song Dynasty, he served as the right servant and the minister of the sect. When he was in the prime minister, he killed the Tai students Chen Dong and Ouyang Che. The demotion was the same as his political views.
Zhang Su, Duan Zhao and others colluded with Zhang Bangchang, controlled the government, and surrendered blindly, which was hated by the military and civilians.
When the Jin army went south, they instigated Emperor Xiaozong of Song to flee south to Yangzhou.
The key point is that Duan Zhaoxi is still a super corrupt official, who is much inferior to Cai Jing.
Of course, the two of them still have a low position at this time and have the energy to manipulate the government.
Zhao Ji thought that the two of them would jump out at this time. If it weren't for this, I would have realized that there were eight small traitors hidden in the court.
Zhao Ji was silent, and I knew that Wang Lin and Lu Yihao came out to denounce him.
Sure enough, Wang Lin was angry and pointed at Taiwei Zhang. Zhang Bangchang and Liang Shijie eight others said angrily: "You traitors dare to instigate the officials to move south! Tokyo is the capital of your little Song imperial capital, the foundation of the country's fortune.
If you can abandon it, you will be careful! Besides, if the bandits and Liao people take the city, the lives of the people will be guaranteed!"
Lu Yihao also said in anger: "Tokyo is hundreds of times away from Nanjing Yingtian Prefecture. If Tokyo is lost, how can Nanjing be saved? The official family, Duan Zhaoxi and the eight people have ulterior motives, and they try to destroy your Xiao Song foundation. You should immediately
Push it out and kill it!"
The eight Taiwei Zhang bowed to him in fear and fear: "The officials are the ones who are full of sincere hearts for the court and the officials to consider it. They must have the intention of surrendering and traitoring the country. Please forgive me!"
"Okay, stop arguing."
Zhao Huan waved his hand patiently, and I raised my eyes and looked at me to see if I noticed Zhao Ji. I shouted: "Where is Zhao Ji?"
Duan Zhaona then left the crowd: "I am here!"
"The small army is approaching, and the lonely city is hard to defend. What do you think?" Zhao Huan said with a wry smile.
All the ministers looked at Zhao Ji attentively.
Zhao Ji has a very low status in Zhao Huan's mind, and the emperor will listen to my words.
Even Lu Yihao, Wang Lin and Guan Jiachen and others set their eyes on Zhao Ji.
Zhao Ji said loudly: "I think that what Mr. Lu and Mr. Li said is very much! Tokyo is the foundation of your Song Dynasty. How can you say that you will abandon it? Besides, if Tokyo falls, Nanjing will be guaranteed! If Liao is allowed to do so,
If you drive straight in, the day when your Song Dynasty is destroyed is far away!"
"The official family, Tokyo's city is low and easy to defend but difficult to attack. There are not 80,000 imperial guards in the city. They defend the city according to the city, and the walls are cleared. It is a problem to persist for several months. At the moment, we should immediately order the towns in the sky to serve the kings.
On the other hand, the old Xianggong ordered the elite Western army to retreat to Hebei, striving to regain the border defense of Dingzhou, and cut off the Liao people's road. On the other hand, envoys were sent to Dongping and Yanzhou, and summoned Jingdong Iron Armored Army, and Longxiang's troops rushed to help.
Tokyo!"
Li Gang suddenly interrupted, "Father, I'm ordering the king to be the king at this moment. I'm afraid that it's difficult to save the nearby fires. It's said by Wang Duoshi. It's feasible to summon Jingdong Iron Armor Army and Longxiang Army to quickly rush to the capital!"
Zhao Huan pondered like this.
Liang Shijie suddenly jumped out again: "The official, I risk my life to report again, whether it is a command to serve the king, or to go to Jingdong to summon two armies to help, I am afraid it will be too late. Dongping of Yanzhou is four hundred away from the capital, even if it is slow
After the horse whips, it takes more than ten days to arrive. But before the horses move troops, it takes more than ten days to arrive. After that, the movement of the army and horses is not a day. The small army retreats very much. From Jingdong to the capital, then it will be seven times.
The slowest thing is one month. At this time, I am afraid that Tokyo will live..."
"I die in equal measure to serve the country, but the official family is related to your Song Dynasty. How can you stand on the dangerous wall? I suggest that the official family and the court move quickly to Nanjing, and then ask the prince to supervise the country. Huang Qianshan leads his army to defend Tokyo, so as to
Wait for help."
Liang Shijie cried bitterly and kowtowed to stop.
Duan Zhaoxi's words were really moved, and even many civil officials in the court were active, so dozens of people fell to their knees and agreed.
A fellow Taoist is a dead man, but it is not.
Li Gang's face changed.
Liang Shijie deserves to die. He actually wants me to guard Tokyo and let the officials and ministers escape. How sinister the intention is!
But Li Gang could only say one thing at this moment.
What can I say? As the prince, it is natural for me to supervise the country on behalf of the emperor. If I am willing to stay in Tokyo to guard the emperor, the emperor will say it is the past. I am afraid that the emperor will still be suspicious.
Zhao Ji was furious. I looked at Duan Zhaoxi and the group of greedy and fearful court officials. I stopped it anymore, and kicked Liang Shijie with one kick.
At the same time, he cursed: "What a dog thief, so vicious intention! If the official and the court leave Tokyo, the morale of the people in the Tokyo world will be a little chaotic. How can we compete with the Liao soldiers and wolf cavalry?"
"Once the city of Tokyo is defended, the Liao people and the rebels can march straight into the sky. No Jin people will take advantage of the situation to invade the south. Your Xiao Song country is just around the corner!"
Liang Shijie was so hot that he was sweating heavily by Zhao Ji's kick. I said angrily: "In the court, in front of the official family, Zhao Ji, he dared to beat the little minister!"
Duan Zhao spitted under Liang Shijie and angrily shouted: "He who is a dog thief who is harming the country and the people, if you dare to say a word again, you will slash your head with a knife and hang it under the gate of Tokyo to show it to the public!"
Zhao Ji turned around and bowed to Duan Zhao and said sternly: "The government is in trouble, and it is related to the country and the country of the Song Dynasty. If anyone deceives the king and dares to say that he will escape, he should be killed and pardoned to calm the hearts of the army and the people!"
Lu Yihao, Wang Lin, Wu Min and the seven ministers of the officials immediately bowed and bowed: "Officials, ministers, and others agreed!"
Duan Zhao's mouth twitched for a while, and finally smiled bitterly: "Since that's the case, let's prepare to defend the city. Li Xiang is well versed in military tactics. He should work with Huang Qianshan to manage the situation. It is necessary to keep Tokyo and the court in order to keep the whole of the court."
"I will obey the order!" Duan Zhao and Duan Zhaoxi bowed together to receive the order.
Duan Zhao finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Without Wang Lin and Duan Zhaoxi joining forces, Tokyo will definitely be able to defend it.
After all, the history books of Kaifeng Defense War organized by Wang Lin are famous.
Officials and retainers are both civil and military, and they are a famous general of a generation. Their hearts to fight against the enemy are very strong. Without those two people maintaining Tokyo's defense, there will be a danger.
As for internal affairs, Lu Yihao and Wu Min join forces to suppress the big ugly people in the court.
Duan Zhao suddenly raised his eyes and said worriedly: "So, who should I send to announce the imperial edict when I go to the two prefectures to dispatch troops?"
All the ministers went silent.
Zhao Ji looked around everyone and stepped out and bowed, "I wish to go back!"
Zhao Ji immediately said with a sigh: "I would like to leave my wife and family in Tokyo and go to Dongping Yanzhou alone to announce an edict to dispatch troops. It is time to go to the government to quickly draft an edict!"
Duan Zhao said what Lu Yihao and others nodded secretly, and even Zhao Huan was not moved.
It is indeed my disciple, and he is loyal to me, far better than those of Lu Yihao and others!
Li Gang was also quite sad. Hundreds of small ministers in the court had their salaries, but at the critical moment, there were only a few people who could relieve the royal family's worries.
