At this point, the New Song Dynasty had completely gotten rid of its predicament and gained a strategic advantage.
Moreover, for the first time in a hundred years, the New Song Dynasty achieved a strategic offensive posture in the face of the tiger and wolf army.
The opportunity cannot be missed, the time will never come again, Yuntian asks for orders to work hard, and the Northern Expedition will be a great success.
At this time, two different voices emerged within the New Song Dynasty.
One voice is for the main war faction, which believes that Yi should pursue and fight fiercely to establish victory in one fell swoop.
There is also a voice from the conservative side, who believe that at this time, we should stop when things are good, consolidate the existing territory, proceed steadily, and not be too hasty.
The two factions argued endlessly in the court.
Finally, Emperor Xin Song Jinkang issued the order for the Northern Expedition.
Yuntian and Hua Mulian formally pledged to the Northern Expedition. The Xin Song army was divided into two groups, heading northeast, led by Hua Mulian, and headed straight for Rucheng. Hua Mulian was full of energy and unstoppable. He captured Rucheng in one battle and captured Dajing alive.
Xue Heng, the defender of Rucheng, then took advantage of the victory to capture Yingchang Prefecture and achieved the first success of the Northern Expedition.
On the other hand, Zhang Yun, a disciple of Yuntian, led the army and marched to the northwest. Zhang Yun received the biography of Yuntian Tianzhen, wrote splendid articles, and cultivated a great righteousness. His leadership ability was only inferior to that of Yuntian. He also led the army with consecutive battles and victories, and successively captured Lu.
Shixian, Guolue, Yiyang, etc., seized 150,000 shi of grain along the way, and surrendered tens of thousands of soldiers, sweeping through the entire Shangzhou.
Emperor Jinkang was overjoyed by the success of the Xin Song Army's Northern Expedition, and issued an edict to commend him, saying: "Then the merchants resumed their trade in the land and captured all the strategic cities of Guo."
The two armies won a great victory together, and the Xin Song army was unparalleled for a while.
Yuntian was sitting in the camp, commanding the two armies and wielding his pair of tongs. The large Jingdun was like meat on a chopping board, ready to be cut at any time.
After recovering Shang, Guo and other cities, Yuntian asked the imperial court for instructions: Now that the situation is favorable, he will cross the Tianhe River directly from Yiluo and regain the lost territory in the Central Plains.
But just when the clouds and weather were fierce, the fighting spirit was high, and they were ready to show off their skills.
In the capital of the new Song Kingdom, doubts arose everywhere, and the conservatives gained the upper hand. Emperor Jinkang was also afraid that the Yun family's iron army would not be able to defeat them, and he became wary.
In the end, Yuntian's march plan failed to gain the support of the dynasty, and he was "alone without support" and "failed to provide enough food", so he had to retreat to Ezhou.
After this battle, Yuntian knew in his heart that he was the master of Zhenzhen, so he retired sadly and proposed to return to the wind field to cultivate, which Jinkang was happy to accept.
When Hua Mulian saw that Yuntian had retired, she wanted to go into seclusion. She also petitioned the imperial court, begging to return to the fields to support her parents. The imperial court felt her filial piety and agreed to the request.
Unexpectedly, shortly afterwards, someone reported that Hua Mulian was actually a daughter. She joined the army in place of her father, but she did not expect to obtain such outstanding achievements.
According to Partridge Heaven's rules, a daughter cannot lead an army in war.
Hua Mulian violated a taboo, and the Celestial Empire was furious.
Not long after, Hua Mulian was captured and brought to justice by the New Song Dynasty.
At the same time, rumors spread from the New Song Dynasty that the reason why Hua Mulian and Yuntian were fighting against each other without any gap in the situation that "one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers" was actually because the two tigers were one male and one female.
.
The implication is that Hua Mulian and Yuntian have an affair and are entangled.
Even though Yuntian is not young, he is well-written and upright. He does not look very old. From the outside, he seems to be a perfect match for Hua Mulian.
Hua Mulian was captured.
Yuntian heard this, thought for a long time, and finally decided that he could not stand idly by and went to the imperial capital at starry night to intercede for Hua Mulian.
Yuntian, with his awe-inspiring righteousness, shocked the court.
Yuntian's achievements in defeating feudal kings, suppressing bandits, and recovering thousands of miles of rivers and mountains are even more unmatched.
Above the court, Yuntian argued vigorously.
Even if Emperor Xin Song is interested in marrying Hua Mulian, he has to consider Yuntian's feelings and position at this time.
In the end, the New Song Dynasty had to compromise in front of Yuntian, saying that it was touched by Hua Mulian's filial piety, so it pardoned Hua Mulian for concealing her identity and allowed Hua Mulian to return home to fulfill her filial piety.
Although Hua Mulian was released, the New Song Dynasty also put forward special conditions, that is, no matter what, Yuntian and Hua Mulian must draw a clear line and cannot become entangled.
Emperor Jinkang made it clear that if Hua Mulian and Yuntian were found to be involved, he would be killed immediately.
Yuntian himself is extremely powerful, and his leadership ability is unparalleled in the world. If Hua Mulian can help him again, who will be the opponent in Xin Song?
Yuntian had no intention of rebelling, and besides, Yuntian himself did not have much love for his children, so he naturally had no objections. However, Hua Mulian was dissatisfied, and after bidding farewell to Yuntian, he rode away.
There was no unity within the New Song Dynasty.
Yuntian and Hua Mulian were suppressed one after another.
Therefore, he missed the opportunity to completely defeat Da Jing.
Yuntian's recapture of Shang, Guo and other places also shocked Dajing and aroused Dajing's full resistance.
After lying in wait for three years, they finally made a comeback. They raised more than 300,000 elite soldiers, claiming to be an army of 500,000, and launched an attack on Xinsong.
After Emperor Jinkang received the report, he felt that Xinsong general Zhang Jun was enough to hold the line of defense, so he allowed him to command an army of 300,000 to fight against Dajing.
However, General Dajing was so powerful that he launched a fierce attack on the Xianghan area. Zhang Jun led a hundred thousand troops to rush towards Xianghan, but was ambushed by Wanshu. After a battle, the army of one hundred thousand was forcibly defeated, and Zhang Jun died in the line of duty.
After completing the technique, he worked hard and was as powerful as breaking bamboo. He defeated the Xin Song army and directly attacked Fanxiang, conquering all the large areas of land captured by Yuntian's Northern Expedition.
Xin Song was defeated and people's hearts were unstable.
The government and the public were in panic.
The morale of Wanshu's army was high and they launched fierce attacks on many areas of Xin Song. The Xin Song Dynasty received urgent military information from many places.
At this critical moment, someone from the New Song Dynasty finally proposed: "Enable the national scholar Yuntian."
No matter how Jinkang fears Yuntian, it is undeniable that Yuntian has become the pillar of the country and an unparalleled scholar.
The New Song Dynasty urgently recruited Yuntian to join the dynasty. In times of crisis, he appointed Yuntian to fight against Dajing Wanshu's army.
At this time, Yuntian received the order and immediately led more than a hundred of his direct disciples to rush to Fanxiang.
When Yuntian arrived at the front line, Haoran was full of righteousness. The soldiers who defended the city were immediately greatly encouraged, and the military power was greatly boosted. After finishing the attack on the city, Yuntian sent Zhang Yun to fight. After finishing the battle, his army of 200,000 was defeated head-on by the 100,000 Yun family iron army.
Don't rush back more than thirty miles to stabilize your position.
The Yun family's iron army once again shocked the world.
The enemy troops on the Xianghan front also retreated without a fight due to the arrival of Yuntian's army.
After completing the technique, he was frightened by the power of Yun Tian's army and retreated to Shangzhou, trying to defend the territory.
Yuntian personally led the army and entered Shangzhou. After completing his skills, he displayed a no-war card and retreated into the city without daring to fight.
However, even so, it still cannot withstand the fierce attack of Yuntian.
In less than two months, the Shangcheng was forcibly captured by Yuntian, and Wan Shu had to unite his army in defeat. In Shangzhou and Hanoi, the corpses of enemy soldiers filled the valleys, and countless people died.
Yuntian led the army to pursue the victory and quickly recovered the entire territory of Shangzhou, with his troops directed towards Caizhou.
Yuntian's fighting power once again shocked the Xin Song government and everyone.
Before Yuntian went to war, the strategic mission of the dynasty was actually very simple, which was to defend Fanxiang. This was because "the scale is determined and must not be carried out in vain."
And Yuntian has overfulfilled the task and has directly expelled Wan Shu from Shangzhou. More importantly, the morale of Yuntian's army is high, while the morale of Dajing's army is low. With Yuntian's ability, he is fully capable of entering Caizhou and recovering large areas.
Rivers and mountains.
More importantly, Yuntian's army has won the support of the soldiers and civilians of Caizhou. Yuntian also implemented a new strategy in Caizhou. Every time he captured Dajing soldiers, he released them and said: "You are all common people in the Central Plains and the country's innocent son. Unfortunately,
I came here because of the great scenery. Now that I have seen the people of the Central Plains, I will tell you how kind the imperial court is. As soon as the army advances and recovers, each of you will lead your heroes to respond to the army!"
Yuntian's strategy drastically changed the situation in Caizhou, and Dajing's rule was in danger.
At this time, Wan Shu has deeply realized that defeating Yuntian on the frontal battlefield is an almost impossible task. If he wants to defeat Yuntian, he must find another way.
While retreating, he finished his art and sent an envoy to Xinsong to seek peace. The envoy promised a lot of benefits. At the same time, he bribed the conservatives of Xinsong and used counterintuitive tactics to frame Yuntian's rebellion.
At this time, Yuntian's reputation has shocked the Xin Song court and everyone.
Even if Da Jing didn't use counter-intuitive tactics, in fact, Emperor Jinkang was already very afraid of Yuntian.
In this case, countermeasures are actually extremely easy to succeed.
So, when Yuntian Chen was mobilizing Shangzhou and looking at Caizhou, Emperor Jinkang issued twelve imperial edicts to urge Yuntian back to Kyoto.
When Yuntian entered Beijing, he was immediately deprived of his military power and imprisoned.
In less than a month, the treacherous minister Wan Qixi collected irrefutable evidence of Yuntian's rebellion. Li Ruopu and He Yanyou, the prime ministers of Dali Temple, argued that Yuntian was not guilty and tried their best to dispute with Wan Qixi, so they were all dismissed from office.
When I learned that I was guilty and was about to be escorted to the execution ground, I couldn't help but feel inexplicably sad and angry.
On the wall of the prison, Yuntian writes poems with his pen.
The first sentence is "furious".
I am so angry that I stand beside my head, and the misty rain has stopped. I look up, look up to the sky and roar, my ambition is strong. Thirty years of fame and dust, eight thousand miles of clouds and moon. Don't wait, the young man's head is white, empty and sad... I am hungry for ambition.
Dining on Hun meat, laughing and talking about thirsty drinking Hun blood. Starting from the beginning, cleaning up the old mountains and rivers, facing the sky.
