I Xiaoxiong

Chapter 392 The Jinyang Covenant
On the head of Heyang City, flags and flags were intertwined, flying recklessly in the wind.

Zhao Yuanzhang, the King of Qi, Wu Yaoshi, the King of Yan, and Brother Liuzhi, Anban Bo Jilie in the north, stood side by side at the top of the city to watch the battle.

The generals of the coalition army and their personal guards guarded the outer circle.

Not far away is the frozen river, and the Jin army camp on the other side of the river is also faintly visible.

"The news from Shangjing, Wuyang Marquis Yu Luohu is now in charge of Mangshan Camp, and Fu Jinchuan has gone to Guanzhong."

Zhao Yuanzhang handed a small note to Pharmacist Wu.

Pharmacist Wu just glanced at it casually, then handed it to brother Liuzhi, and then said with a smile, "Fu Jinchuan is not on the other side, is this considered good news?"

Zhao Yuanzhang remained silent, but Brother Liu shook his head after reading the note.

"We people from the northern border have never gotten cheap from Luo Hu. If the Jiedushi of Hedong is still him, I think we may not have a chance to stand here."

Zhao Yuanzhang glanced at him, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, was he just trying to get a bargain?

When Yu Luohu was serving as the envoy of Hedong and Shuofang Jiedu, he defeated the army of invaders in the northern border several times.

The smallest victory was beheading two thousand four and capturing thousands of cattle and horses.

But thinking about his current situation, his eyes unconsciously became a little cold.

It sounds nice to live under the fence, but to put it bluntly, he is no different from a lost dog now.

In the Battle of Hebei, he worked hard for several years as the governor of Weizhou and almost failed completely.

Although he is now standing side by side with Brother Liuzhi and Yaoshi Wu, among the three of them he only has a family of more than ten thousand people.

Brother Liu Zhi commanded an army of more than [-] troops in the northern border. Although Wu Yaoshi Yan's army only had more than [-] troops, his combat power was not weaker than that of the northern border.

The reason why he is qualified to stand between the two of them is because they still cannot do without his banner, and they also need him as the most important link to maintain the communication channel between the Yan army and the northern border.

As for whether he will be able to get the chair he dreamed of after this war, it is still unknown.

The more Guanzhong and Gyeonggi reject the Yan army and the northerners, the greater his chances.

So now he hopes that no matter whether it is Fu Jinchuan or Yu Luohou who leads the imperial army in the Mangshan camp, the Yan army and the northern border will be beaten, disabled, and then lost.

This is the best situation for him.

As for whether you can get what you want, let's wait and see.

But right now, even with Heyang in hand, the coalition forces still have some disputes about the direction of the next step.

On the other side of the river, to the north of Shangjing, there are more than [-] Jin officers and soldiers, and they are all elite imperial guards from the Dianqian Division and the Guards Division.Not far away, Weizhou and Xiangzhou also stationed about [-] Jin official troops, including town troops and some forbidden troops in Hebei.

The two official armies faced each other across the river, forming an angle of confrontation. Once the coalition forces wanted to cross the river and attack the direction of Shangjing, the officers and troops from the direction of Wei and Xiang would inevitably send troops to attack the flanks of the coalition forces.

Conversely, if the coalition forces head east, they will also face the flanking attack of the imperial guards on the other side of the river.

Under such circumstances, the coalition forces are naturally a little hesitant.

However, because of the fall of Hedong and Shuofang, the officers and soldiers were unavoidably panicked and calmed down. It also took time for the army to prepare for war.

In addition to worrying about excessive losses, the coalition forces also have an urgent problem to be solved.

That is, after this battle, if Gyeonggi is really captured, Guanzhong will most likely be able to take advantage of the momentum.

Only half of the Jin Dynasty remained.

The northerners are not good at water warfare, and it is almost impossible to rule the country in the south in a short time.

It is more likely that the river will be ruled.

At that time, the north of the Jianghuai River will fall into the hands of the coalition forces. No matter whether the imperial court of the Great Jin Dynasty travels south in clothes, or the gentry in the south of the Yangtze River elects a clan to control the situation, it will not be able to compete with the coalition forces in the short term.

So how to divide the territory north of Jianghuai and the interests after this war?

If this issue cannot be resolved and a solution that satisfies all parties cannot be come up with, the battle will be lost.

So after Wu Yaoshi brought up the topic first, brother Liu Zhi immediately understood.

"Khan Bishamon, invite His Royal Highnesses, King Qi and King Yan, to Jinyang to discuss plans."

Ten days later, Bishamen, the Great Khan from the Northern Territory, who came from Shuofang, and Tuobajian, the prince of Qingtang who came on behalf of Qingtang Maharaja, together with King Qi, King Yan, and King Zhao Xuanwen who "dedicated the city to meritorious service", and everyone Gather in Jinyang to discuss major plans.

Zhao Xuanwen even said at the banquet: "The heroes of the world are all in Jinyang. This is a great atmosphere that has never been seen in a thousand years."

In this hero meeting, after more than ten days of verbal battles, the opinions were finally unified.

Later historians called it the "Jinyang Covenant".

Among them, the Golden Horde Khanate in the north was divided into the entire territory of Hedong and Shuofang, as well as the Yan and Qing states in Guanzhong.

Yanfan got the whole territory of Hebei Road and Qingyan Road.

Hexi, Longyou, Shuzhong, and Jingzhou, Qinzhou, and Fengzhou in Guanzhong belonged to Qingtang.

King Qi will become the new emperor of the Jin Dynasty, ruling most of Guanzhong and Gyeonggi Province.

Yan Fan will still be a vassal to King Qi's new court.

It almost dismantled the north of the Jianghuai River.

The strategy for dispatching troops was also discussed.

In the direction of Heyang, the northern border will continue to leave [-] troops, which is equivalent to hanging a knife on Gyeonggi-do.

The Yan army marched eastward to attack Hebei.

The main force of the northern army and the Qingtang army, a total of 50 troops, are working together to tackle key problems.

Break through the pass first, wait until the Yan army takes Hebei, and encircle Gyeonggi.

In the Yin'an Hall of the Prince Tang's Mansion in Jinyang, after signing several covenants, Zhao Yuanzhang hid his face and left.

Only Tang Wang Zhao Xuanwen, who was the host, followed him.

The two came one after the other to the upper tower of Yimen in the Tang Palace.

"Taizu Taizong started an incident in Jinyang, climbed ice and lay in the snow, slept with clothes and food, won the world after 20 years of hard work, and the century-old foundation of the Great Jin Dynasty, but now it is destroyed by me. Under the nine springs, what face is there to see it? Ancestors."

King Qi stood on the tower of Yimen, weeping endlessly.

And the confidants Chang Qing and Tang Wang Zhao Xuanwen who stood beside him also felt sympathetic.

"Nephew, don't you take it lightly? The Emperor Zhengxi in Shangjing is already seriously ill. After his death, nephew will be on the Great Treasure. Although he has promised the two captives of Hedong, Shuofang, Longyou, Hexi and Northwest today, he will work hard to regain his homeland in the future. , it's not like there's no chance"

Zhao Xuanwen's rhetoric finally cheered King Qi up a little.

"Uncle Tang Wang is right. If I succeed in a great career in the future, I will share the glory with Uncle Wang."

Chang Qing on the side didn't change his expression when he heard what the distant uncle and nephew said, but he sneered endlessly in his heart.

If you really have this thought, can you still rebel and seek rebellion?
Chang Qing was none other than Xue Julin's nephew, Xue Changqing.

After Honglian was defeated, he escaped from birth. Later, King Qi recruited troops in Weizhou. He disguised himself and went to join the army under the pseudonym Chang Qing.

Because the military and brave generals were chosen for a while, Zhao Yuanzhang was reused and relied on as his confidant.

After Zhuozhou was restored by the government army, if he hadn't fought desperately, I'm afraid Zhao Yuanzhang would have been captured in Hebei.

As for whether King Qi can succeed, he does not report any expectations now.

There are less than a hundred generals and no more than ten thousand soldiers. Even with the Tang king on the side, the total number of troops on both sides is less than 3.

If he can really conquer Shangjing, he might be able to be the puppet emperor for a few years.

If you expect him to ascend the throne in Shangjing, Jiangnan will pass the call?

It's just a fool's dream.

But in the dark, Xue Changqing always felt that Guanzhong and Gyeonggi were not so easy to fight.

Even Yanfan, Beijing, and Qingtang have millions of troops.

Da Jin, it shouldn't be so unbearable.

And that Generalissimo of the Kansai warriors and horses has never been defeated.
