Qiming 1158

Chapter 10 Rebellion, It Begins
Zhao Kaishan is a big landlord in Yizhou, traditionally strong and powerful in the local area.

He was supposed to be an accomplice of the feudal ruler, but he ran into the Jin Kingdom, which had not yet been promoted to a feudal regime, and was extremely dissatisfied with the core interests of the Jin Kingdom's policies that damaged it.

In the past few years, Zhao Kaishan was invaded by the Jurchen who moved south. He protested many times, whether it was of any use, whether to occupy or occupy.

Unable to bear it, Zhao Kaishan decided to resist at all costs, expel the golden man, and take back what belongs to him.

When Su Yin returned from his mission, he was passing through Yizhou. On a country road, he happened to bump into two thief-eyed people discussing the news that Zhao Kaishan was preparing for an uprising to the government.

One of Su Yonglin's tasks for Su Yin was to find strong men who were willing to oppose Jin.

Zhao Kaishan was shocked, executed the two traitors, and thanked Su Yin.

Su Yin informed Zhao Kaishan of his mission and Su Yonglin's hope. Zhao Kaishan was deeply surprised, but was willing to make further contact with Su Yonglin.

After Su Yin returned, she told Su Yonglin about this.

Su Yonglin was overjoyed when he learned that, and immediately sent Su Yin to bring some gold and silver secrets back to meet Zhao Kaishan, and tell about his identity and experience as a private salt dealer, as well as his aspirations.

Although Zhao Kaishan felt that Su Yonglin was a strange person in his heart, he was already on the ropes and had to send it. Su Yonglin had money, which was an important help he needed urgently.

The two hit it off and decided to rebel together.

A year ago, Su Yonglin and Zhao Kaishan met on the sea by boat, and they hit it off.

Now that the agreed uprising time is very close, the last thing Su Yonglin wants to do in the Southern Song Dynasty is to kill Sun Yuanqi, and now this matter has been done.

Before going to Lin'an to kill Sun Yuanqi, he asked Su Yin to contact Zhao Kaishan and informed Zhao Kaishan that they planned to land at the old place in Juzhou, and asked him to arrange a reliable person to help them transfer all the supplies to a safe place.

A lot of money, grain, and military equipment were all accumulated by the Su family during their many years as a private salt dealer.

The insurgent army has just revolted, and its equipment will definitely not be very good. It needs to siege the city and grab the equipment from the golden people to gradually become stronger, but it cannot be completely unprepared.

It is obviously not good to go to the uprising after cutting bamboo into bamboo guns like Chen Sheng and Wu Guang did.

Su Yonglin took out all the Su family's family background and invested in this uprising.

Once the preparations for departure are completed, all the belongings and people of the Su family will go north by boat, meet Zhao Kaishan and others, and then set off a massive uprising.

The Su family's material and financial resources are abundant, but the manpower aspect mainly depends on Zhao Kaishan and others.

In this wave of Su Yonglin going north, there will still be some people taken away, but not many.

In addition to the core team of 310 people, Su's private salt group also has more than 700 salt workers and their family members in the salt factory, and two to three thousand peripheral part-time members who are responsible for the front-line smuggling of salt.

The core team are basically elite thugs, and they are militarized management. They are the main reliance of the Su family to gain a firm foothold in the field of private salt sales, earning wages and benefits.

They are all Su Yonglin's most direct confidants, and everyone Su Yonglin can call out by name, and they will definitely be taken away.

The workers in the salt factory were all secretly recruited by the Su family from refugees from all over the world—mainly because of the frequent peasant uprisings, the refugees could never be stopped, so the Su family recruited these refugees to work in the salt factory.

They do not have household registration, they belong to pure black households, and the government can't find them if they want to.

Su Yonglin is kind to them, they are also loyal to the Su family, and they have been educated. They are the kind of fire in Su Yonglin's heart, so there is no problem with taking them away.

In addition, the two or three thousand part-time members do not have relevant benefits, they are temporary workers, and they get paid for one vote.

They are scattered all over the world with their families and their families. They are the off-line developed in the process of the Su family selling smuggled salt, and some are even off-line.

They don't participate in the core operations, they just wait for the salt to be produced and get on the ship to get the salt, then transfer it to various places for sale, and finally take the profit back and share it with the Su family. Other things are not very related to them.

Although they are very reliable because of the danger of smuggling salt, they will not reveal the traces of the core members of the Su family, but it is still unrealistic to expect them to rebel in the north.

Even if he had the money to support these people, Su Yonglin didn't have the energy to give them the political lessons together.

The people Su Yonglin can really help are the core team and the workers of the salt factory who have accepted his influence and broke free of their spiritual shackles.

They will be the sparks before the prairie fire takes shape.

They are indeed not qualified troops, but to this day, the Jurchen elite soldiers who were brave and good at fighting died, the old and old, the officials who were officials, the local owners who were local leaders, have long lost their sharpness.

The new generation of Jin Jun was unable to effectively suppress the Southern Song Dynasty in terms of combat effectiveness.

Not to mention Han Chinese-dominated signing troops, even the Jurchen soldiers themselves can be rotten. This can be confirmed from the military intelligence that Su Yin spied on.

In the 26th year of Song Shaoxing and the first year of Jin Zhenglong, that is, the year before last, when Su Yin was operating in Shandong, he spied a military exercise of the Jin soldiers.

At that time, the local generals of Jin summoned the local men from Meng'an to conduct military drills, trying to see how much combat effectiveness they still had, but the result was a complete mess.

Seventy-eight out of ten Jurchen stalwarts who were summoned could not draw a hard bow, and more than half of them could fall off when they staggered on their horses.

Some people are so weak that they cannot wield heavy weapons at all, and the formations are also messy, their steps cannot be unified, the front squeezes the back and the back hits the front.

The speed of this corruption is really possible.

To be precise, even Song Jun was not as good as back then.

The Song Army brought out by Zhao Kuangyin was completely abolished after signing a peace treaty with the Liao State, and it persisted for four or fifty years.

The Jin army is good, anyway, it has declined like this for more than 20 years.

Su Yonglin came to an accurate conclusion on this.

Except for the frontier troops set up by the Jin Empire in the northern and northwestern frontier areas to guard against the steppe cavalry and the Xixia army, there is basically no elite who can cause huge damage to the rebel army.

The corruption of Jin Jun is of course good news for Su Yonglin, but there is even better news.

After the Song and Jin Shaoxing peace talks, the two sides did not fight for nearly 20 years. During this period, there was no elite army on the Song and Jin borders for combat preparations. The Southern Song Dynasty did not use the main force to defend against the Jin people, and neither did the Jin Kingdom.

During this period, at least on the surface, Jin Guo's main energy was still dealing with the northern Mongolian tribe and the Tatar people.

From the time of Jin Taizong Wanyan Wu Qimai, the Mongolians on the northern grasslands were the border troubles of the Jin Kingdom.

During the Jin Xizong period, a group of fierce generals of the Jin army who had beaten the Song army to the brink of shit took turns to fight against the nomads in the grasslands. .

Now, just like the real Central Plains Dynasty, the Jin Kingdom is also facing the threat of the northern grasslands, causing headaches and irritability.

Their situation is definitely not good, and they are not as invincible as some people in the Southern Song Dynasty think.

The Mongolian tribes are the foreign troubles that they have not been able to solve. The war between the Jin Kingdom and the Mongolians is not beautiful at all, and it is not as agile as when the Song Dynasty was destroyed.

From Su Yonglin's point of view, Jin Guo is an empty shell that is strong outside and working in the middle. Class conflicts and ethnic conflicts are intertwined, and anywhere can ignite the spark of rebellion.

The Southern Song Dynasty was far more difficult to deal with than the Jin Kingdom.

Jin Guo has a strong army, but as long as its army is defeated, it will be finished.

The Southern Song Dynasty army does not look strong, but it is quite tenacious. The more important thing is to just defeat the army that defeated it. There is still a long way to go before it is truly finished.

Fight the weak first, then the tough ones, and develop gradually, from weak to strong.

Su Yonglin's grand strategy has never changed.

On March 28th, [-]th year of Shaoxing, Su Yonglin gave an order, and the ships assembled on Sujia Island in the northeast of Dinghai County began to head for Shandong with a large amount of money, food and military equipment.

The rebellion has begun.
