In the winter of the ninth year of Jianyan, on October 18th, Zhao Jiu, an official of the Song Dynasty, crossed the Yellow River and landed at Yuanqu, Shaanzhou.
It was an ordinary day, and the actions of the Zhao Guan family were just ordinary and in line with the trend, but it was this action that officially announced the comprehensiveness and in-depth development of the Northern Expedition in the ninth year of Jianyan.
At this point, the early raid-style battles officially ended, and the Northern Expedition entered a new stage.
That night, Zhao Jiu camped and rested in Yuanqu, which caused a tremor in the entire Hedong and Henan regions.
After all, the location of Zhao Song's official family is by no means a simple location for Shang Xia. It is also a coordinate system and a bottom line.
This is actually a very subtle psychology.
When Zhao Jiu stayed in Luoyang before, the officials and civilians in Henan would feel that they were busy on the front line, and would be afraid and resistant to moving to the front line. The soldiers on the front line also had the feeling that I am at the front line, and I am working hard for the rear.
So you can do whatever you want.
However, once Zhao Guan's family crossed the river, it was like a valve was opened. The officials in Guanxi, Henan Province immediately became much more stable and honest. Even the civilians who had been hastily recruited seemed to have improved their morale and complained less.
As for the frontline troops north of the Yellow River, they felt the pressure immediately.
Overnight, Zhao Guan's family received secret letters from almost all generals above the commander in the Hedong region. For a time, he knew many things on the front line better than a few commanders.
This inevitably further strengthened some of his thoughts... but it was still not enough for the official to make a decision.
The next day, when the sky became slightly gloomier, Zhao Guan's family set off from Yuanqu. Under the escort of as many as eight commanders and their subordinates, plus the Imperial Ban Zhi, they headed west first, passing through Sanmenxia at noon, and arriving at Pinglu territory in the evening.
Shao Yun, the general of Pinglu, came out of the city to the east to greet him. He was immediately treated to a special banquet by Zhao Guan's family and received great rewards.
This is what the title should mean... Shao Yun, as Li Yanxian's actual deputy, has been sitting in Pinglu, the only large stronghold in Hebei, while Li Yanxian was guarding Shaanzhou all year round. Li Yanxian guarded Shaanzhou for 89 years, Shao Yun
In other words, they guarded Pinglu for eight or nine years.
It can be said that this person has always been on the most dangerous frontline in the entire empire. Even before the Battle of Yaoshan, Li Yanxian never forgot to ask for the kindness of his parents and wife. That was almost the consciousness of taking the initiative to sacrifice...
...It’s just that that time, the old partners of Nian Lubu and Ali, under the command of the third prince, Nian Liduo, chose the path of Zhao Jiu’s march, bypassing Pinglu and heading south directly to raid Luoyang. The people who died also became
Got Wang Xianggong and Da Zhai.
On the contrary, it was Shao Yun who had been lucky enough to wait until the Northern Expedition and Zhao Guan's family.
This kind of character is simply a model of resistance to the Jin Dynasty, and must be commended... And during the banquet, Xianggong Lu really represented the imperial court and formally extended Shao Yun's favor and promoted Shao Yun's martial arts rank.
Later, Shao Yunfu took the initiative to express his position, hoping to personally lead the army to escort the officials' family northward.
Regarding this, Zhao Jiu hesitated again, but finally nodded in agreement.
In other words, this matter is of course fair and aboveboard, and there are more elements of decency between the monarch and his ministers, but it is not without some other explanations.
As we all know, Li Yanxian's department has always been extremely independent because the positions of its subordinates cannot be easily adjusted. This has also led to the uneven quality of its departments, and they are on top of each other... Although it is embarrassing to say it, in fact, the last time the Shaanxi-Luo Group Army received a large-scale
The integration was actually achieved by relying on the opportunity of Dazhai's death in the Luoyang direction.
After the death of Zhai Zhai Xing, Zhao Jiu authorized his son Zhai Cong to take over his father's position. However, this did not prevent Zhai Cong from being able to convince the public because his prestige was far inferior to that of his father. It was only from then on that Li Yanxian completely gained control of the group army.
In the following years, the center gradually established the Zhai family around Luoyang, relying on the huge impact of the Battle of Yaoshan and the management and restoration work of the surrounding areas of Luoyang, a typical regional powerful rebel army.
The group digested it thoroughly.
In the later period, as Niu Gao and Dong Xian completely broke away from the Zhai family and took the initiative to become directly subordinate to the central committee, the three existing commanders and commanders of the Zhai family gradually adjusted their positions. In turn, Li Yanxian and his Shaanzhou troops
It seems a bit far from the center.
But now, the country's Northern Expedition has actually captured Hezhong, Shaanzhou has lost its former strategic position, and Li Yanxian himself has just lost his army at Tieling Pass. As Li Jiedu's most trusted confidant, the left-behind general made such a statement.
Worth considering.
Hello everyone, our official account will find gold and red envelopes every day. You can get it by paying attention. This is the last benefit at the end of the year. Please seize the opportunity. Official account [Book Friends Base Camp]
The most likely possibility is that Li Yanxian secretly instructed him to do this and took the opportunity to admit his mistake and show his sincerity to Zhao Guan's family.
Zhao Jiu himself was hesitant at all because he was afraid that if he 'annexed' Shao Yun at this time, it would cause some rumors among the army.
However, he finally chose to agree, because again... How can there be an argument for the government to annex the imperial army? Some things, if done openly, will naturally be done openly, but if you consider it with caution,
On the contrary, it will make things a little strange.
In this way, Zhao Jiu didn't even appoint a general to guard Pinglu. He just asked Wang Yan to arrange a commander. The next day, he took Shao Yun's tribe as the leader and headed north from Pinglu, crossing Zhongtiao from Zhangdian Town.
mountain, and then arrived at Anyi City on August 22.
Here, the Zhao Guan family and his close ministers, including the top 100 Southeast Dukes, encountered wars related to the Northern Expedition in a real sense for the first time.
That's right, just as Hedong City, the capital of Hezhong Prefecture, has never fallen, Anyi City, located on the bank of Yanchi in Hedong, has never been captured by the Song army, which makes Li Qiong quite ashamed.
"I am incompetent!"
In the afternoon, Li Qiong bowed his head in embarrassment at the edge of the red salt lake with a patch of snow-white salt pool. "There are tens of thousands of people, but they can't conquer the city quickly and let the officials enter the city and stay there."
"It doesn't matter."
Zhao Jiu immediately comforted him and helped him up personally. "It was because of Han Liangchen's sudden victory that I decided to cross the river. Suddenly, Li Qing took over the siege in the middle and lacked all the equipment. If we forcefully attack the city and lose the lives of soldiers,
Instead, it was my fault."
In some situations, you still have to say what needs to be said.
Of course, Zhao Jiu does not care about this matter, because objective laws must be respected... This has been the case since ancient times. In large-scale field battles, confrontations often last for many days, but once the battle begins, the winner will be determined, and a city is still safe.
The position of Yi is very important. There are famous and big cities that have appeared countless times in Chinese history books. As long as the guard is willing to fight to the death, unless some special means are used, otherwise, Li Qiong will take over the city for ten days.
Regulating and destroying the city is nothing more than wishful thinking.
However, there are definitely problems, at least one - that is, except for those specific key cities that have been prepared in advance, there are still relatively few people who are determined to hold on to the end regardless of the situation.
Why should we keep it?
Why should you be loyal to the Kingdom of Jin?
"But Li Qing, I remember that both Han Liangchen (Han Shizhong) and Li Shaoyan (Li Yanxian) fought relatively efficiently, and the Jin army failed to respond in time. It stands to reason that Hedong City has Wen Dun Sizhong and the main force of the Jin army, so it is natural for them to defend it, but So what about Anyi?" On the way into the camp on horseback, Zhao Jiu withdrew his gaze from the top of the city, glanced at the conspicuous salt pond next to it again, and then finally fell on Li Qiong who was holding his horse. "What's the saying in Anyi City?"
"So that the officials know that the defense of Anyi City was all due to one person." Li Qiong, who was leading the horse, quickly turned around and explained hurriedly while backing up. "It was Shi Gao, the magistrate of the Jin Kingdom... "
"Are they Han?" Zhao Jiu frowned slightly.
"yes."
"Yanyun or Lianghe Han?" Lu Xianggong couldn't help but interjected.
"People from Dingzhou... Han people from Hebei." Li Qiong blurted out. "However, Dingzhou is close to the border and was captured by the Jurchens long before Jingkang. They were first made to do hard labor, and then they were converted into military officials because they could not read. Finally, they were captured by the Jurchens. Aguda's concubine Wanyanjai's mother took a fancy to him and became a secret servant..."
"Oh." Lu Yihao responded and glanced at Li Qiong, not knowing what he meant.
"How is this person?" Zhao Jiu also glanced at Li Qiong slightly before asking.
"Before Li Jiedu marched, this person often said that once the officials made the Northern Expedition, this part of the river would be the first to bear the brunt, so they paid attention to defense every day." Li Qiong did not notice that the officials and the husband looked at him extra, and hurriedly spoke again. " And because Anyi is located on the east side of Yanchi, facing the Zhongtiao Mountain Pass, he managed it even more carefully. That day, Li Jiedu hurriedly marched, and he was here in Anyi, so although the magistrate of Anyi immediately surrendered, he still He gathered the local soldiers, recruited the civilians, and held the city for defense. On that day, Li Jiedu tried to climb the city in one fell swoop, but after his failure, he was unable to do so. He could only leave Niu Gao Niu to control the city and besieged the city."
"I know what happened next. Han Liangchen passed by here and tried it, but it didn't work. Instead, he took Niu Gao away to lead the way, so the siege was delayed until Li Qing crossed the river to take over..."
"yes……"
"But even if this person intends to hold on, I hear you tell me that there are not many regular soldiers in the city, but mostly local people and civilians?"
"yes."
"The current situation is that the city is just suffering. After Han Liangchen's several great victories, haven't you tried to persuade him to surrender? It's hard to fake the flags and armor at the moment, right?"
"In order to let the officials know, I naturally persuaded them. King Han Jun and Manager Ma did not forget this place when they fought with the Jin Kingdom at Tieling Pass. After I took over, I also captured the Fenshui Battle and the Sacrifice. Li Bubu told him about the withdrawal of the entire army across Huishui." Li Qiong seemed bitter for a moment. "He himself and some knowledgeable people in the city should have known the general situation, but every time I sent envoys, he treated me with courtesy. Wait, and then sternly refuse..."
"How old is he?"
"Thirty-eight or nine, maybe forty."
"Why can he control the entire city?" Lu Yihao suddenly interrupted again, but his words were much colder.
"So that my husband knows that this person has always had a reputation for being honest and kind. He has been in Jiezhou for only two years and has become popular, especially here in Anyi..." Li Qiong immediately answered seriously.
"Oh?" Lu Yihao responded with a sneer on his face.
"Since I have been besieging this city, I have inquired about some things..." Li Qiong couldn't wait to explain. "This person has two very famous things. One is when he followed the army in his early years to fight against his concubine Wan Yanchai's mother in Hebei.
, Wanyan's mother planned to distribute the people of an entire state in Hebei to the army as slaves, but he came to stop it; another time was the local incident the year before last, when some heroes from Anyi revolted and prepared to respond to Li Jiedu.
It was revealed that despite the fact that the hero was executed, a book containing his place of origin and names was actually found in his home. It was said that there were nearly a thousand people in it... Wen Dunsizhong sent someone to ask for it, but he arrived in advance and burned it directly.
…”
"..."
"At that time, Wanyan's mother had already died, and he actually had no supporter." Li Qiong said with emotion. "For this matter, Wen Dun Sizhong directly tied him and his son to Hedong City and sent them to prison.
Fortunately, he had a chief clerk who had just passed the Jinshi examination. He had always admired his character and knowledge, and accepted him as a teacher. At the age of twenty, he dared to go to Taiyuan alone to find Bali Su.
, Ba Lisu transferred him to the Jin King Yinliduo who was patrolling south, and he was reinstated."
At this point, Zhao Guanjia and Long Yan had already entered the military camp and entered the camp gate. Li Qiong also took advantage of the opportunity to loosen the reins of his horse. When Zhao Jiu arrived here, he turned over and dismounted, but did not rush into the spacious room that had been prepared.
Instead, they led people directly to the rammed-earth general's platform in front of the Chinese army's tent.
The view here is wide and the surroundings are clear. Zhao Jiu said nothing and looked around. Not to mention the Hedong Salt Pond, which can almost be called a natural wonder, became more and more magnificent in the afternoon sun. Even the movement in Anyi City seemed
It's a little clearer... Although the specific figure can't be seen clearly, there is no doubt that the arrival of Long Hao and the main force of tens of thousands of imperial battalions still shakes this city that was just suffering. Facing the south and facing the center,
On the wall of the army camp, there were many figures swaying for a while.
Zhao Guanjia glanced at the city wall and stretched out his hand to indicate that Yang Yizhong was about to present a long silver tube-shaped object, but it was exactly the so-called traditional weapon for time travellers...a telescope polished with crystal.
But what’s a bit confusing is that Zhao Jiu, a time traveler, didn’t figure out this shame until the seventh or eighth year after time travel.
Moreover, because this thing has obvious military uses and is far less shocking than a hot air balloon, it can be used as a prototype, so it has not been made public. Calculated carefully, it has only been given to a group of commanders, plus dozens of outstanding commanders.
The official only has one person.
Back in front of him, Zhao Jiu raised his binoculars and glanced at the activities in the city. Then he became bored, then turned around and glanced around the camp... From the hot air balloon hanging high for reconnaissance.
, they rushed to the civilian camp at the rear and built dozens of half-sized artillery carts, and then they couldn't help but frown slightly.
Finally, I couldn't help but go see the beautiful salt pond - the weather has turned cold these days, and the salt pond has a unique winter landscape, which is the nitrate phenomenon.
However, this saltpeter is Glauber's salt, which is a nitrite and cannot be used to make gunpowder.
Zhao Guan's family behaved a bit strangely. Except for Wang De and Zhang Jing, the generals and warriors around him below Lu Yihao didn't bother to think about these things. The rest of them who were a little bit attentive could probably guess what this official was thinking... Just think about it and you'll know, just now
It was so relaxed and comfortable before entering the camp, but Li Qiong felt so uncomfortable after telling the story of the guard. It must be because of the person Li Qiong talked about.
Even Li Qiong gradually realized something, and then gradually became uneasy.
"His Majesty."
Originally, Lu Yihao, who was a little tired from riding horses for days, didn't want to say much, but with Zhao Guan's attitude at this time, as the prime minister, he had no choice but to express his attitude. "This Shi Gao is just a traitor who deceives the world and steals his reputation... Why bother?"
Do you care?"
"Yeah?"
Zhao Jiu finally put away the telescope and turned to face each other calmly. "How can I see it?"
"You can tell by looking at the two things that earned him the greatest reputation." Lu Yihao sneered and rolled his sleeves. "To dissuade the Jurchens from selling people into slavery, and to burn the registers to prevent the Jurchens from being implicated. It seems like doing good deeds, but in fact these good deeds are just compensation.
Has the evil of the Jurchens changed the basic reason why the Jurchens are evil? Has it changed the fact that he possesses the Jurchens and is a great evil? But now, he uses the reputation he gained from doing good over evil to deceive the people into defending those who do evil.
The Jurchens... what kind of true Confucian scholars are they?! They are just corrupt Confucians and traitors who help others for their own fame!"
As soon as this statement came out, the surrounding civil and military officials echoed it, and Li Qiong also woke up and quickly denounced it.
Zhao Jiu also nodded after handing the telescope to Yang Yizhong:
"Lü Xianggong's words are at the root... In the past ten years, there have been great disasters, the tax dispute in the south, the displacement of the survivors in the north, the wars and disputes between the DPRK and China, and the rebellion that started in large numbers, but then
In turn, they committed tragic acts of rebellion and plunder... Our own people are causing trouble and making trouble, so shouldn't we blame it on the Jurchens' invasion? This is why I have been on the throne for nine years and have been left to my own devices.
Above the word... let those people look down on me, deceive me, and even become arrogant and domineering, greedy for money and lust, nepotistic, collusion, ambitious and talented, and willful... But as long as they are willing to resist the money, I will regard them as available.
! Because I have determined from the very beginning that the fundamental contradiction in this world, at least from the time of Jingkang to the present, lies in this war between the Song and Jin Dynasties! Everything else must give way!"
The principles and attitudes of Zhao Guan's family have long been clear to the ministers around them. In fact, if they don't know it and don't agree with it, they won't be able to get into the position of important ministers and ministers... At this time, it sounds a bit long-winded.
, but the vocabulary and slightly angry emotions that Zhao Guanjia blurted out made them think a little.
In sharp contrast, there are the "Top 100" from Southeast Gongge who are accompanying them.
These people left the southeast this time and went north in person. They first saw the clearly visible traces of war in the Central Plains, and then saw the people of the Central Plains using a militarized mobilization method to carry out large-scale conscription. Then they crossed the river with Zhao Guan's family and saw the scenery of the two rivers.
Hearing these deeds and words, it was a bit refreshing and shocking.
"However." After Zhao Jiu set the tone, he still shook his head. "Besides these words, there are still some points... For example, in Anyi City, don't everyone know that the Jurchens are the worst? But why are they still willing to respect them?
Is this Zhizhou going to follow him to resist the king? I can't say it here because I'm ignorant of the ignorance of the people."
"Please give me some advice from the officials." Lu Yihao frowned slightly.
"It's not a big deal to give me advice." Zhao Jiu sighed. "It's nothing more than when the Jurchens want to sell them into slavery, and when they want to make big connections, we king masters can't see the shadow at all, and
Shi Gao, a man who did evil but did good, turned out to be their only support when they were struggling to survive... We can blame this Shi Gao, or we can deal with the soldiers and people who defended the city in accordance with military law, but it is absolutely impossible to be so magnanimous... If we don't consider the morale of the Northern Expedition,
In fact, I should first issue an edict to punish myself."
Lu Yihao shook his head, obviously opposed to Zhao Guan's opinion.
However, Mr. Lu was harsh to his subordinates and colleagues, but was obviously polite to the official family. Therefore, probably in order to save face for Zhao Guan's family, Lu Yihao shook his head, turned around and glared at Li Qiong, who had taken an obvious stand before, and publicly
Scold:
"Li Qiong, as a commander-in-chief and a general who governs tens of thousands of people, when you go to battle, do you think that you are also from Hebei and how pitiful the people of Hebei are? Do you want to be grateful to this man for the people of Lianghe?
?Do you want to send some more soups and medicines to the city and replenish some weapons?! The morale of 300,000 troops, the panic of the emperor, and the strength of 500,000 people in Guanxi, Henan, are nothing in the eyes of you, the vice-president?! If you really think about it,
The people of Lianghe should think hard about how to attack the city and how to cut this Shi Gao into thousands of pieces, so as to deter future talents from attacking him!"
Li Qiong was frightened for a moment, and hurriedly bowed her hands to Xianggong Lu, and then bowed to Zhao Guan's house to apologize.
This time, Zhao Jiu did not get along as well as he did in front of the military camp. Instead, he nodded directly with his hands behind his back. He recognized Lu Yihao's words to Li Qiong and reprimanded himself: "Li Qiong... Lu Xianggong's words were a bit too much, but
The meaning is correct. There are tens of millions of people in Lianghe. Everyone can have grievances and be deceived by such people, so that they feel sorry for this person's virtue... But you, the frontline generals, are also from Lianghe, and there are many
Feelings, but they have to be buried in the heart... I should never, never, should not say what I said in public in such a situation as a commander-in-chief just now."
"I'm ashamed." Li Qiong became even more embarrassed.
"According to the manner of your words just now, you have been communicating with this Shi Gao a lot, right?" Zhao Jiu finally turned around to look at each other.
"Yes Yes……"
"Send him my message." Zhao Jiu responded calmly. "Also give him the list of more than sixty war criminals that I drew up on the road. Send him the words Xianggong Lu talked about him today... Understand.
Tell him that I am here, but I will never pardon him... Not only that, but as of noon tomorrow, all those who serve as pseudo-gold officers and officials in this city will not be pardoned if they cannot surrender. The so-called Han and barbarians
, only talking about obedience and law!"
Li Qiong bowed his head and said yes, while Zhao Jiu directly passed over the opponent and headed towards the Chinese army's tent.
After a night of silence, the next morning, the role of Zhao Guanjia and Long Yi finally emerged.
Just when Li Qiong was hesitating whether he should rush to attack the city without enough artillery vehicles to prove his determination and that of the Eight-Character Army if he still wanted to hold on to the city. Shi Gao, the defender of Anyi and the magistrate of Jiezhou in the Kingdom of Jin,
After reading a series of manuscripts and letters sent by Li Qiong the night before, coupled with the sight of the dragon banner and the captured black and white banners during the day, as well as the countless imperial camp elites who arrived with the dragon banner, it was finally
Give up resistance.
Early in the morning, he summoned his student and chief registrar Liang Su, as well as the leaders of the city's civilians and state army officers, asking them to give up resistance and open the city to surrender. He also asked Liang Su to visit Zhao Guan's house and beg him to pardon the innocent people in the city.
In addition, he also asked his son Shi Ju, who took office with him, to visit Li Qiong and express his gratitude.
Seeing Shi Gao's decision to surrender, the officers in the city and the leaders of the people were all relieved... These people were willing to follow Shi Gao not because they were loyal to Dajin, but because Shi Gao had always been kind to them, and they were beaten by Shi Gao one after another.
I was tied up, and even so, they were all completely shaken yesterday, and there was already a situation of series connection and loss of control at the top and bottom.
Now that Shi Gao was willing to let go, they naturally felt relaxed.
Relatively speaking, Liang Su and Shi Zhi had similar considerations... except that their starting point was entirely based on Shi Gao, so they had an extra layer of worries.
"Then Zhao Song...will the Zhao Guan family pardon the teacher?" Liang Su said seriously. "Did Li Dutong have any words?"
"I didn't mention it." Shi Gao smiled and spread his hands after the county government case. "I guess it's inevitable to be punished with death and to be punished with life... But the most embarrassing thing is to do hard labor in the army. It's not like he didn't do it when King Kong went south.
Pass."
"If that's the case." Liang Su also felt relieved. "I will do it with the teacher... When this matter is over, I will go back to my hometown to study and never become an official again."
Shi Gao thought thoughtfully, then nodded slightly and smiled: "That's right, I won't be an official after I go back, and the same goes for my eldest brother... Let's study with peace of mind... But only if no one robs us of doing hard labor anymore."
Shi Ju quickly nodded excitedly: "I'm not afraid of hard labor!"
Shi Gao nodded slightly to his son, then turned around and reminded his student seriously: "But Meng Rong (characterized by Liang Su), if the Zhao family sees that you are young, they will give you an official position..."
"Students know." Liang Su responded quickly with a smile. "It is a matter of life and death for the whole city, and whether our teachers and students have to do hard labor...students will not be pedantic."
"Then don't delay." Shi Gao nodded, and then urged the two of them to do it quickly. "There is a limit of noon outside, and I am a guilty person... You hurry up and do it, especially you have to worry about the people in the city.
When someone saw Long Hu arriving yesterday, he couldn't hold himself back and rushed to start a fire and cause trouble, which in vain cost everyone's lives."
Liang and Shi quickly responded and left in a hurry.
Just like that, in the morning, I went to the camp outside the city. I heard that the city was asking for surrender, and everyone was naturally excited.
However, when he saw that the people who came to surrender were two young people, and no one else, Lu Yihao's face turned gloomy... Among several close ministers, such as Yang Yizhong, Ren Baozhong, Yu Yunwen, Mei Yue, etc., they were also a little dissatisfied.
After getting comfortable, they each secretly took a look at Zhao Guan's house.
However, Zhao Guanjia's expression did not change at all, and he responded calmly, and even named the adult Liang Su as his secretary.
According to the rules set before crossing the river, people can be pardoned and appointed before the age of thirty.
Since the army had surrendered, there was no need to mention the next step. The city opened the door as promised, and the veteran general Zhang Jing personally supervised his subordinates to swarm in. Then he quickly controlled the city defense, cleaned the streets, and resettled and disarmed the soldiers and civilians in the city... It can be said that
neat.
Immediately, the Zhao Guan family took their close officials, civil and military, and set off directly for the city.
Entering the city and reaching the intersection, Zhang Jing, who was neatly dressed, came hurriedly towards him. Then he handed over his hands and apologized in public: "I am ashamed, but I also ask the officials not to join the county government..."
"Is that guy dead?"
Before Zhao Guanjia could speak, Lu Yihao, who was riding behind, became furious, but it was obviously pure anger and no surprise.
At the same time, the Zhao Guan family and many smart people had the same appearance, that is, their expressions did not change at all. Others such as Li Qiong, Fan Zongyin, and even the ordinary Southeast Palace attendants also suddenly realized after an instant.
However, these people from the southeast never thought that the Confucian students in the occupied areas of Lianghe would be in this kind of living situation. Even if they woke up, they were still shocked. People like Li Qiong and Fan Zongyin could not help but feel a little emotional in their hearts.
, but because of Xianggong Lu’s attack yesterday, he did not dare to reveal it.
That is to say, people like Wang De, who said the matter had nothing to do with them, never paid attention to it from beginning to end, and were still a little confused at this time.
As for Liang Su, who had just ordered Secretary Lang, he also swayed on his horse under the gazes of Yu Yunwen, Mei Yue and others. Then his expression changed drastically, he got off the horse and knelt down behind Zhao Guan's house.
As a result, several soldiers were surrounded.
As for the stone stronghold, he almost fell off his horse after his senior brother bowed down, and was surrounded early by several Red Heart Cavalrymen.
"Already dead." Zhang Jing was a little confused by this scene, but he still hurriedly handed over his hand. "It was suicide by hanging... There are still four words left, which are written with no regrets."
"I am not ashamed." Just as Lu Yihao was about to have another attack, Zhao Guanjia suddenly said coldly. "Kill his body and show it to the public!"
Zhang Jing, a martial artist, would not think too much. At this time, seeing that the attitude of the officials and the father-in-law was consistent, he also received the decree and had an explanation, so he immediately turned around and went to dispose of the body.
Liang Su, on the other hand, glanced at the young junior brother who was surrounded and controlled by the knights from a few soldiers around him, but suddenly he kowtowed on the ground non-stop.
"I will not change my will. Whatever you have to say, you have to say it after killing the corpse." Zhao Jiu stood on the horse without looking back.
"I...I would like to ask you to collect the body later." Liang Su raised his head, his forehead was bruised and his face was pale. He thought hard for a while and then said with difficulty. "And please ask Your Majesty Xu Chen to resign from his official position...Junior brother Chen is young.
, the two countries are at war, I am afraid it will be difficult, I... want to escort the coffin of my mentor back to Dingzhou for burial in the name of Bai Shen. "
Zhao Jiu turned around to look at this person, only to feel a smoldering fire in his heart, which had been suppressed for a long time, and now gradually ignited.
It was not easy to see the surroundings, especially the several imperial banzhi who had been accompanying this person for a long time, but they simply held their swords as a precaution, namely Yang Yizhong, Ren Baozhong, Yu Yunwen, Mei Yue and others.
Everyone also became nervous, preparing for possible outbreaks in Zhao Guan's family.
However, Zhao Jiu stared at this person, and although his anger gradually rose, it was still difficult to break out... because he had realized that the object of his anger was not this person, nor was he loyal to the Kingdom of Jin, but he had to commit suicide.
The Han Zhizhou Shi Gao who claimed to have a "clear conscience".
Even the dissatisfaction yesterday was not directed at Li Qiong.
And he knew that there would definitely be some people who were silent at this time. They were moved by Shi Gao and this young man in their hearts. They felt that "Confucians should teach others by their own example". They felt that it didn't matter whether Shi Gao violated the law or not.
He is a "good Confucian" who has no shame in his heart.
And this anger is not directed at these silent ones.
This is a broad and complex emotion, which may include elements such as sadness and anger for the misfortune, but it is definitely more than that. It is also mixed with a sense of grievance, anger and shame at one's own incompetence.
meaning.
There is a kind of person who has done so much and worked hard all the way to the Northern Expedition, but there are still so many people thinking and doing things according to that kind of muddled logic, as if their efforts are not worth it, and as if their efforts are not worth it.
Not general enough.
This is an emotion that comes with a reflective mindset.
But no matter what happened, to everyone's surprise, Zhao Guanjia gradually calmed down this time. He did not issue any kind of rebuke, nor did he take the opportunity to say any bold words to scold anyone or express his mood... He endured
Come down.
Only, he was able to endure it, not because of the complexity of these complex emotions themselves, but because he realized that, in the final analysis, just as all the contradictions were caused by the Song-Jin war, these emotions and incidents, numbness and ignorance,
Passion and silence, even justice and evil, ultimately need to be underpinned and decided by the success of the Northern Expedition.
All for the military victory itself, all for the success of the Northern Expedition.
Before that, there is no point in saying anything.
