Chapter 2044 The Lord and the emperor who showed weakness, you are also persuaded

Compared with the scene when the Jin army entered Bianjing from Xuanhua Gate, and the people in the city were crying and running, and there were also many young and brave people who resisted bravely, now the powerful troops of the Qi Dynasty rushing along the long street in the imperial capital of the Song Dynasty are evil spirits. It was soaring, but it did not cause large-scale panic and riots among the people in the city.

The attitude of the people of Bianjing towards the Qi army's large-scale entry into the city, even if it could not be said that they were eating pots of milk to welcome the king's army, at least the local people still clearly remembered that after the Jin army occupied the outer city, Zhao Huan issued an order The soldiers and civilians of Bianjing were not allowed to resist, and those who disobeyed the orders were killed without mercy. The people were also ordered to donate gold, silver, clothes, grain, and treasures... Even the women of the people were used to please the golden men, and those who dared to resist among the poor people were even more severely punished. The yoke is often used, and the punishment is severe...

When foreign enemies came, the king of your country went crazy to welcome the Jin people, and was extremely servile. As a result, we almost became slaves of the country's subjugation, and now here comes the Qi Emperor Xiao who was very kind to our people in Bianjing. Tang Dynasty, things have come to this, it would be better to simply surrender, so why should I be an obedient citizen of the Song Dynasty again? The officers and soldiers of the imperial camp guarding Bianjing were caught off guard because a large number of their colleagues suddenly defected and were killed, and they were afraid of war. At such a critical moment, it is easier to spread among the army. However, among the two to three hundred thousand people, there are probably some generals who are loyal to the Song Dynasty who are still trying to save the situation, so they will inevitably have to fight with those who still want to meet. The troops of the Qi Dynasty fought hand to hand and engaged in street fighting.

However, the vigor of the Qi army was in sharp contrast to the panic and discouragement of the stubborn defenders. Even after the troops and horses led by generals such as Lu Junyi, Yuan, and Yuan Lang were encountered one after another, they still refused to put down their weapons and wait for their defeat. The Song army in the city inevitably rushed forward, and the soldiers passed by and were invincible. The Song army, whose morale was low, had its limbs broken and its flesh and blood flying everywhere. Although it was inevitable that some neighborhoods in Bianjing City were stained with blood and corpses, but After those few imperial camp generals who were still determined to resist were killed one after another, the remaining troops still inevitably abandoned their weapons and fell on the ground, shouting that they would surrender and spare their lives...

It wasn't until Xiao Tang, who had left Luanyu's dragon chariot, that he mounted his horse and carried his spear, deliberately put on his military uniform and armor, and was guarded by a group of generals who followed him. It was like an overwhelming force. The city walls of Bianliang in Tokyo could not stop him from leading the elite troops under his command to advance. On the other hand, in the Bianjing Imperial City, Zhao Huan and many princes and clans were also aware of the sudden change in the situation at the Bianjing City Gate. At this moment, no one believed that the palace in the inner city could hold on. Since the sturdy and majestic outer city of Bianjing could not withstand the Qi army's invasion, who had the courage to fight with Xiao Tang who had already entered the city? war?

What's more, the outer city of Bianjing fell so quickly. Many civil servants, military officers, and court officials did not even notice that the army outside the city had entered the city gate in their own mansions. Lin Chong, who was familiar with Bianjing's layout, dispatched troops and horses to attack. They went to various official residences in the city. Many courtiers were confused and controlled by the soldiers of the Qi army who rushed into the palace. Among them were some strong and upright ministers who scolded the traitors for treason. , but how can a good man in the marching army waste his time talking to those stubborn civil servants? Who is not willing to let go? Just rush up and tie them up tightly, and then use linen cloth to put it in the mouths of those officials who are blowing their beards and staring. The plug can be easily captured by various means.

Now the palace is in chaos. Officials from Kaifeng Mansion, Yushitai, Majun Yamen, Dianqiansi, Shangshu Province, and Taichang Temple in the inner city are anxiously discussing with each other whether to retreat from the enemy.

No one has an idea about the strategy.

As for Zhao Huan, who was sitting on the dragon chair with an ashen face, looking around at the panic-stricken civil and military ministers below who were still in a mess, his cheeks suddenly twitched a few times, and suddenly he burst into tears and wailed: "

The fate of the country is so bad, it’s because of my incompetence! Do you really have no good strategy to rectify chaos and help people in danger?"

All the officials of the Song Dynasty, who had pale faces, immediately looked at Zhao Huan, who was crying so hard that he almost fell off the dragon chair.

, Distant water cannot save the nearby fire, it is no longer possible for Qin Wang’s troops and horses from all over the country to rush to rescue in time, and the enemy’s army is within easy reach. How can this dead situation be resolved?

Now Qin Hui, Zhang Jun and others, and Zhe Mo have also been controlled by the Qi army in their own mansions. Most of the Bianjing defenders are guarding key points at various gates in the outer city, and there are only two or three imperial guards guarding the inner city.

If tens of thousands of people were to huddle and defend, the hope of holding on until all the soldiers and horses of Qinwang rushed to Bianjing was very slim. Once the inner city was also breached, there would be no room for bargaining. Not only would the current official family inevitably be torn apart.

If the crown is destroyed, there is no guarantee that the Zhao family will not suffer unforeseen disasters!

The road was at an end, and now the only leverage left to negotiate with Xiao Tang was the inner city of Bianjing. At this time, there were finally people who were frightened by the same direction, and the courtiers who had previously advocated for peace came forward to remonstrate.

After hearing the plan, Zhao Huan, who had no master, could only nod sadly and agreed...

Outside the main gate of the palace, countless horse hooves hit the bluestone ground. The sound was like rumbling thunder, and it seemed to be hammering hard into the hearts of the frightened imperial guards on the inner city gate tower. Following the crowd,

The Qi army assembled at the gate of the city, and the Song court also sent a courtier from the inner city, accompanied by a prince and several followers, to request negotiations with Xiao Tang.

When Xiao Tang heard that the troops assigned to the main gate of the inner city had sent a military academy to report that the minister sent by the Song Dynasty to negotiate was named Fan Tong, he immediately remembered that this guy was also a member of Qin Hui's party, regardless of the official history of the Jin Kingdom.

His attitude and the current stance of the Qi Dynasty have always advocated peace negotiations and were recommended by Qin Hui. When Qin Hui wanted to suppress the main war faction of the Song Dynasty and take back the military power of generals abroad, it was this Fan Tong who proposed to Shaoxing in the 11th year of the official history of the Southern Song Dynasty.

Qin Hui proposed a plan and was able to successfully remove the military power of Yue Fei and other three major military commanders. As a result, he was reused by Qin Hui and was recommended to participate in political affairs. However, he was later suspected by Qin Hui and ordered his party members Wan Qixi to enter the chapter.

Impeach him and banish him to Junzhou.

Zhao Huan is now in a desperate situation, and the reason why he sent Fan Tong to negotiate must be to beg for mercy, just like his servile and submissive attitude towards the Jin army's maids.

And after Xiao Tang heard the names of the clan princes sent by Zhao Huan to ask for negotiation, he couldn't help but feel happy. King Kang Zhao Gou would inevitably be sent to the enemy's camp by his royal brother and trapped in the tiger's mouth.

. But this time when he comes here, will he still be as calm and calm as when he first met him, without being surprised by anything?

Bloodbathing the inner city of Bianjing was a last resort strategy that should never be carried out. With Zhao Huan's character, he must be able to intimidate and frighten him into submission. Xiao Tang then agreed to teach the direction of the army and horses, and lead Zhao Huan and Fan Tong.

People came to pay their respects. Not long after, when the two of them were approaching under the leadership of a group of armored warriors, Xiao Tang only vaguely took a look at Zhao Gou's appearance, then he ran him a few steps and immediately fell to the ground.

He kowtowed, his tone of voice trembling with fear: "Little King Zhao Gou... pays homage to His Majesty the Qi Dynasty!"
