Chapter seven hundred and thirty fifth unacceptable
Zhongjing Road, now called Changchun Prefecture, was lined with soldiers of the Song Army marching along the road.
The original plan was to rest for three days, but due to the continuous rain, after resting for five days, we geared up and set off.
During these five days, the Jurchen envoys arrived uninvited and submitted a letter of surrender to the Song camp.
The person sent by the Jurchens was their veteran figure, Zong Han and his biological father Wan Yan Sa Gai.
Wanyan Sagai was of this lineage and had a close relationship with Aguda. More importantly, the rule passed down from those days was that this lineage was destined to be the Prime Minister.
It turns out that when Wanyan Wugu unified the Jurchen tribes, he liked the courage and bravery of his second son, Gailibo, so Gailibo's descendants dominated the politics of the Jin Kingdom.
When the sons grew up, according to Jurchen custom, they should move to different palaces to live in different palaces. However, Wugun let his eldest son Qi Zhe and his second son Qi Libo live in the same palace.
He was in charge of foreign affairs. This was after Wanyan Sakai, the son of the impeacher, Wanyan Zonghan served as Guolun Bojilie (equivalent to the prime minister) for a long time, and Wanyan Aguda, Wanyan Wu, the son of impeacher Libo, became the emperor.
One reason.
Because of respect for his uncle's lineage, when Wanyan Aguda first became Dubo Jilie, he and Wanyan Sagai divided the Jurchen tribes into rulers. The area north of Pishui was ruled by Wanyan Aguda, and the area around Lailiushui was ruled by Wanyan Sagai.
.
Zong Han had just died in battle, but for the sake of Jurchen's future, Wanyan Sagai did not hesitate at all and immediately agreed to come and ask for surrender.
These people did not see Yang Lin and were blocked by Zong Ze.
Zongze told them righteously that there was no room for discussion on the matter. If they wanted to surrender, paying tribute and becoming vassal would not be enough.
All weapons must be handed over, all armies must be disbanded, and then all Jurchen nobles must move to Bianliang.
With such harsh conditions, Wanyan Sagai knew he had to refuse without asking Aguda for instructions.
He repeatedly requested to meet Yang Lin. After careful consideration, Zongze promised him to send someone to inform Yang Lin.
The inquiring people set out on their journey without affecting Zongze, Han Shizhong, and Yao Pingzhong. The three armies advanced hand in hand.
On the foundation of Changchun Prefecture, Yang Lin is like a fish in water, like a tiger returning to the mountain, and showing his talents.
He is not good at destruction, but construction is his specialty.
Young Prime Minister Yang Lin, who was dressed as a short fighter, commanded the civilians to build the city in an open space.
A fast horse came from a distance. After landing, he clasped his fists and said, "Young Zai, the Jin people sent an envoy to ask for surrender. The sect general sent his subordinates to inquire about Young Zai's intentions."
Yang Lin held his waist and wore a straw hat on his head. He raised his head when he heard the words, with a look of disgust on his face, and said: "You can surrender if you want. Disband the troops and follow me back to Bianliang. I will give him a yard. Otherwise."
If so, we will meet with armies and destroy the nest of thieves."
The messenger secretly noted it down, mounted his horse and left. Yang Lin sneered: "Surrender and live your dream. If this is not eliminated, sooner or later it will still be a disaster."
Zongze was very worried that Yang Lin would agree. If ordinary people were to use troops for a long time at this time and there was still a lot of trouble in the court, they would probably give up the tiny land of Tokyo Road to the Jurchen Tatars in exchange for them to remove the imperial title and pay tribute.
After all, although the Jurchens were defeated, they still showed their own strength in the final battle.
Many people disdain to occupy the bitter cold land of Tokyo Road, but Yang Lin is different. He knows that the evil roots of the Jurchens are difficult to eradicate. He also knows that Tokyo Road is full of treasures and will be a big granary after development.
At this time, a craftsman came over and asked excitedly: "Shao Zai, what do you think of this construction?"
Yang Lin took over the surveying drawings and saw them quite clearly. He pointed at the soil on the ground and said: "First plan out the roads in the city. Once we have the roads, we can transport supplies. By then, no matter what we do, everything will fall into place.
Already."
If you want to be rich, build roads first. This simple slogan from later generations actually makes sense.
Only with convenient transportation can the economy and people's livelihood develop.
Liaodong has been under the rule of foreigners for so many years, and of course there is no major communication route with the Central Plains.
Even the original emperor of the Song Dynasty had to plant trees and dig holes in Hebei, not wanting to have in-depth communication with these "good" neighbors.
Now that Yang Lin has conquered these places, they have naturally become a family. If there is no access, it will be too foreign.
Roads were planned by Yang Lin and his craftsmen, preparing to connect with Youyan and Yunnei.
After the Jurchens are eliminated, they have to go further. Sometimes it is difficult for many empires to occupy their territories for a long time after they have established territory.
In fact, they don't pay much attention to transportation. Since they are defeated, your force will be stronger than the original armed forces in the conquered land in a short period of time.
In this case, why should we be afraid of wolves in front and tigers in the back? We are also afraid that they will attack us, and we are also afraid that someone will rebel...
If this was the case, the Han people could simply build a city at a corner of the Yellow River and remain trapped in the city.
Yang Lin has decided to completely integrate this place into the national territory, whether it is the mountains and rivers, or the creatures, people, and everything here.
In Huanglong Mansion, Aguda had a gloomy face after learning that his request for surrender was rejected.
Wanyan Sa changed his face to look ashamed and said: "Your Majesty, I am such an old man that I can't help you with your worries."
"Uncle, there is no need to blame yourself. After the Song Dynasty won several battles, they thought their soldiers were invincible. Now that our Jurchens have reached a very critical moment, all the strategies should be used. This time the Song Dynasty people did not allow it, and they also thought that their soldiers were invincible.
As expected. Only by hurting them a few times and letting Song Manzi know that even if they win, they will not be able to annihilate all the Jurchen warriors and will have to pay a heavy price, will they be willing to sit down and talk."
Wanyan Sagai did not deliberately sabotage the peace talks at all because of his son's tragic death.
In fact, he worked very hard in requesting surrender on this mission.
For no other reason than to preserve the Jurchens and the blood of the Wanyan Department.
Why can't the Jurchens tolerate it? The oppression of the Liao people was so cruel at the beginning, but they still survived.
An idea came to mind. It seems that the Song people thought they could easily capture Huanglong Mansion. As long as they fought a few fierce battles and let them know our strength here, the Song army would naturally agree to peace talks.
Huanglong Mansion was the place where he started, and Wanyan Aguda had enough confidence to withstand the Song army's offensive here, and then defeat them once or twice.
Although the vast territory has been completely lost, the Bohai Sea is still there, as are the smelting workshops and granaries.
As long as these two things are present, it is impossible for the Jurchen cavalry to lose its combat effectiveness.
Everyone was happy to see that the emperor had regained his fighting spirit. Most of the Jurchen generals had no long-term vision.
But as war machines, they are qualified enough, both in terms of their will and ability to fight.
Wanyan Aguda prepared to lead them to continue in Huanglong Mansion to recreate the past event of defeating the 700,000-strong Liao army.
But this time it was not Xiao Sixian's good-for-nothing brother or Yelu Yanxi who came to fight them.
