Qian Song

...

Will the Central Plains be settled in World War I?

Are you sure?
deal.

But the problem is, this is too different from what Li Cun imagined before.

What Li Cun had planned before was to defeat the Song army in the First World War, capture or kill Zhao Gou alive, and then use both suppression and appeasement to put down the defeated soldiers of the Zhao Song Dynasty and the bandits and rebels entrenched in the Central Plains. Completely recover the Central Plains area, and then concentrate our forces to recover the Sichuan-Shanxi area, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack.

But Li Cun never expected that he only defeated Fan Zhixu and Zong Ze, and before he formally fought against Zhao Gou, Zhao Gou completed the transformation of Zhao Paopao, and directly brought his Generalissimo The government slipped away without any hesitation, which was beyond my expectations.

seriously.

Although Li Cun's information transmission network is the fastest in this era, no matter how many spies there are and how fast Fei Nu can fly, Zhao Gou, who can just run away, can't run as fast.

When Li Cun learned that Zhao Gou had detoured to Hebei and headed for Huaizhou, Zhao Gou had almost gone to Xinxiang.

To be honest, if Li Cun went after Zhao Gou desperately at this time, he would still have a chance to intercept Zhao Gou.

But the problem is, Zhao Gou stopped fighting, but Zhao Zisong, Weng Yanguo, and He Zhitong, the pacifier of Beijing Northwest Road, a scholar of Huidian Pavilion, who had received Zhao Gou's order to prepare for a decisive battle with the Gan army, still gathered 10,000+ The army is eyeing the Gyeonggi area.

Previously, Weng Yanguo and Zhao Zisong each formed King Qin's Division in the name of King Qin's rescue.

Weng Yanguo claimed to have an army of 20 because he got the soldiers and horses along the Huaihe River to prevent the army from going north, and the host of the host prepared by Hu Zhiru.

In terms of numbers alone, Weng Yanguo's Ministry is the largest among several Song armies.

However, although Weng Yanguo had a large number of troops, [-] of them were navy troops trained by the Zhao Song Dynasty to recover the southern area occupied by Li Cun. Cowardly, Weng Yanguo, who has never fought a war, is not a good general at all, so the comprehensive combat power of the Song Army of Weng Yanguo's department is actually not strong.

Weng Yanguo has a certain understanding of the true strength of his department, so his department has been stationed near Yingzhou to wait and see, and has never dared to approach the Gyeonggi area.

Zhao Zisong is the distant family of the Zhao Song Dynasty, which has a little meaning of Liu Bei.

After Li Cun defeated the Song Dynasty, Zhao Zisong has been actively recruiting troops to prepare for the war.

By the time Li Cun broke through Bianliang City in Tokyo and abolished the Zhao Song Dynasty, Zhao Zisong had already gathered two to thirty thousand Qin King's divisions.

After receiving Zhao Huan's King Qin's edict, Zhao Zisong immediately set out for the Gyeonggi area.

But because Li Cun went out and said that the Gan army had several 10 horses in the Gyeonggi area, Zhao Zisong did not dare to advance after he arrived in Chenzhou, so he could only keep writing letters to the chief officers of the divisions of King Qin, asking everyone to join him Go to King Qin to rescue him.

Later, because the residence was close, Zhao Zisong approached Weng Yanguo and suggested that the two of them build an altar to kill animals and form a blood alliance.

Weng Yanguo felt that Zhao Zisong's idea was good, and readily agreed, but insisted on being the leader of the alliance.

——To be honest, in terms of strength, Weng Yanguo beat Zhao Zisong by several blocks, so it is understandable that he wants to be the leader of the alliance.

Weng Yanguo said to Zhao Zisong: "I was ordered by the king to enter the guard, and I have 20 troops under my belt. You are the guard of Chenzhou, and I have only [-] to [-] people. I should be the leader of the alliance."

However, Zhao Zisong insisted that "Zhou Zongmeng, different surnames are queens", that is to say, in the Zhou Dynasty, the clan alliance had different surnames in addition to the same surname, but the different surnames should be listed after the same surname, so he opposed Weng Yanguo's appointment as the leader of the alliance, implying that he should be the leader of the alliance.

The two had a dispute over this, and the alliance between them could not go on.

Just at this time, He Zhitong also led eight thousand Qin Wang's teachers to Chenzhou.

After He Zhitong learned of the quarrel between Weng Yanguo and Zhao Zisong, he said to them: "Generalissimo Kang Wang is in Jichuan, why don't we lead the troops to obey the restraint, why is there a battle for the main alliance?"

During this period of time, Zhao Gou's Mansion of the Generalissimo of the World's Soldiers and Horses has become quite powerful, not weaker than any of the Qin King's divisions. The key point is that Zhao Gou is a prince and has the imperial edict issued by Zhao Huan to control the world's soldiers and horses, so he has strength. , respectful, and righteous.

Therefore, Weng Yanguo and Zhao Zisong finally chose to follow He Zhitong's suggestion, and the three of them jointly signed a letter to the Generalissimo's Office, expressing their willingness to listen to his orders.

However, Zhao Zisong still couldn't forget the blood alliance. In the end, under Zhao Zisong's repeated insistence, Weng Yanguo, Zhao Zisong, He Zhitong, Rong Yi and others still held a blood ceremony on the altar, and jointly drafted the King Qin alliance. The alliance said:
"The thieves once again violated the capital, invaded and tyrannized, and the gods and men were angry. The holy emperor bent himself to negotiate a peace, and he still did not quit his teacher. He protracted, harbored evil intentions, and the clan society was in danger. The king ordered the world to be isolated, and the courtiers were loyal and brave, and vowed not to be with the thief Health. Today, the teachers of all ways are gathered in Jinfu. Wherever we are in an alliance, don't be selfish, don't entertain differences, don't look at quarrels, and work together to secure the royal family and serve the courtiers. Soldiers of the three armies, regard death as home, ten million People have only one heart, if you advance, you will be rewarded generously, and you will be honored in your family and country; if you retreat, you will be severely punished, and your wife will be killed. If you have this alliance, the gods will kill it. The emperor and the emperor, the Taizu Taizong, are really based on this statement!"

After Zhao Gou learned that Weng Yanguo, He Zhitong and other powerful warlords had formed an alliance with Zhao Zisong, he discussed with Geng Nanzhong and other advisers, and appointed Zhao Zisong, who was most likely to follow his command, as the Marshal of the Baowenge Scholar The government councilor and the governor of Southeast Road.

Then, Zhao Gou wrote a letter to Zhao Zisong and others, stating that he would lead all the Song troops to fight Li Cunjue to the death, and also said that Fan Zhixu had arrived with 20 Western troops, and Fan Na, Zhao Ye, Wang Xiang and others had arrived. The [-] troops are also willing to obey his command. As long as Zhao Zisong and the others are willing to respond, they will quickly lead the troops under the capital to meet him and wait for his unified command. St.

This was exactly what Zhao Zisong was looking forward to, so he hurriedly called Weng Yanguo, He Zhitong, Rong Yi and others into a meeting to discuss as the leader of the alliance.

At the meeting, under Zhao Zisong's strong lobbying, Weng Yanguo, He Zhitong, Rong Yi and others who built an altar alliance with Zhao Zisong agreed to lead an army of 10,000+, claiming to be 50, to advance to the Weishi area, which is very promising The posture of attacking Kaifeng Mansion put pressure on the Qianjun in the southwest direction, and responded to Zhao Gou's upcoming general attack.

Under such circumstances, if Li Cun sent a large army to chase and kill Zhao Gou, he might be stolen by the Song army of Weng Yanguo, Zhao Zisong, He Zhitong and others who were close at hand. After all, they have hundreds of thousands of soldiers here. army.

Strategically, Li Cun can despise the enemy, but tactically, Li Cun will definitely attach importance to the enemy.

Furthermore, now that the entire south is occupied by Li Cun, it is absolutely impossible for Zhao Gou to escape to the sea as in history. As for the Sichuan-Shanxi area, Li Cun will recover it sooner or later, so Li Cun Just let Zhao Gou and the others run away, where can Zhao Gou and the others go?

Therefore, after learning that Zhao Gou had escaped, Li Cun made a decisive decision, appointed Zhao Li as the commander of the capital, and immediately launched a general attack on the Song army of Weng Yanguo, Zhao Zisong, and He Zhitong.

After Zhao Li took the order, he asked Yang Zaixing and Yao Xing to serve as the left and right vanguards, open roads in the mountains, build bridges in the water, and fight for the army.

After Yang Zaixing and Yao Xing took the order, they met and discussed how to be the pioneer?

During the conversation, both Yang Zaixing and Yao Xing were looking forward to the battle where Niu Gao's 20 troops broke through [-] Western troops.

But Yang Zaixing and Yao Xing now each have [-] cavalry, much stronger than Niu Gao at that time.

Furthermore, in the impression of Yang Zaixing and Yao Xing, Song Jun was simply vulnerable.

Therefore, Yang Zaixing and Yao Xing discussed it, and simply outflanked the left and right sides, and it was over.

Let's talk about Zhao Zisong, Weng Yanguo, He Zhitong and other Song troops.

They didn't even know that Zhao Gou ran away without saying hello.

What's more, they, who were originally just support, turned into the main direction of the dry army's attack.

What's more, they didn't expect Gan Jun to come so quickly.

They never expected that Yang Zaixing and Yao Xing, the two "stunned youths", with only 1 troops each, would dare to launch a general attack on their two 10,000+ troops.

Of course, this is also because Zhao Zisong, Weng Yanguo, He Zhitong and other commanders of the Song Army are all literati and scholars who do not know how to fight, and lack intuitive cognition and judgment on the battlefield.

As a result, Yang Zaixing and Yao Xing took the lead, and their tigers and wolves were like two wild dragons. As soon as they arrived at Weishi, they directly twisted towards the Song Army's camp without stopping. The 10,000+ Song Army was caught off guard in an instant I don't know how to face it at all.

Weng Yanguo, who was the best at running, reacted the fastest. Seeing that the situation was not good, he quickly ordered the withdrawal of troops to Yingzhou.

Because Weng Yanguo ran resolutely, many people from the Song Army of Weng Yanguo's department escaped.

However, it was precisely because the most powerful Weng Yan Guobu withdrew first that the more than 20 Song troops became even more vulnerable.

Faced with the murderous attack from Yang Zaixing's and Yao Xing's troops, all the soldiers of the Song Army chose to abandon their luggage and run wildly. During this process, countless people were trampled to death and wounded, and they collapsed in an instant.

Seeing this, Yang Zaixing, Yao Xing and their subordinates were all extremely excited, whoever they were killed more, and whoever resisted fiercely went there to kill them.

According to statistics after the war, the number of soldiers of the Song Army killed by Yang Zaixing and Yao Xing's troops in this battle, plus the casualties of the Song Army soldiers trampled by themselves, exceeded [-].

It is not difficult to see from the numbers alone that this was an undisputed victory. From the perspective of the results, Niu Gao's battle was not even comparable to this one.

In the end, Yang Zaixing chased and killed Weng Yanguo all the way to the city of Yingzhou, so that the elderly Weng Yanguo almost ran to his death on the road.

But even though he was lucky enough to escape his life, Weng Yanguo was chased and killed by Yang Zaixing until his liver and gallbladder were torn apart, and he couldn't get out of the closed city.

After Li Cun learned of this, he sent Li Gang's younger brother Li Wei to surrender.

It turned out that Weng Yanguo's daughter was married to Li Wei. In other words, Weng Yanguo was actually Li Wei's father-in-law and Li Gang's uncle-in-law.

Because of this relationship, Li Cun specially transferred Li Wei from Yanjing, and had already sent Li Wei to recruit Weng Yanguo once.

Unexpectedly, the last time Weng Yanguo bluntly rejected Li Wei's offer to surrender, he also claimed to draw a line with Li Wei and his wife, and even scolded Li Gang.

Weng Yanguo's reputation in history is really not good. He also dragged Li Gang into a big corruption case, and it was difficult to get out. It can even be said that he was the one who lost the Central Plains area to the small court of the Southern Song Dynasty. One of the culprits.

in history.

When the shame of Jingkang happened, Weng Yanguo actively organized troops to serve the king.

After Zhang Bangchang established the puppet Chu regime, he once recruited Weng Yanguo, an old friend, but Weng Yanguo sternly refused, scolded Zhang Bangchang, and immediately offered allegiance to Zhao Gou, who had not yet proclaimed himself emperor.

Therefore, after the establishment of the small court in the Southern Song Dynasty, Weng Yanguo was highly regarded by Zhao Gou and was Zhao Gou's confidant.

After Zhao Gou succeeded to the throne, he single-mindedly fled Bianliang City, Tokyo, a place where he had no sense of security at all, and wanted to move the capital to the Jiangnan area, so he entrusted Weng Yanguo with a heavy responsibility and appointed Weng Yanguo as the director of Jiangnan East Road West Road The envoy also knew Jiangning Mansion, and allocated [-] guan to Weng Yanguo to build the Jiangning Palace for him, and planned to flee to Jiangning Mansion after finding an excuse.

But what Zhao Gou didn't expect was that after Weng Yanguo took office, he took advantage of the emperor's distance and joined forces with the transfer judge Wu Fang, thinking that Zhao Gou repaired the city wall and the Jiangning palace, wantonly extorted money, embezzled people's property, and took bribes.

Moreover, Weng Yanguo also sent a report to Li Gang and asked Zhao Gou to allocate another 40 Guan to him.

At that time, Zhao Gou had appointed Li Gang as prime minister.

Because Weng Yanguo performed well before and was related to Li Gang, Li Gang trusted Weng Yanguo very much, so he persuaded Zhao Gou, who had no money at the time, to approve the 40 guan for Weng Yanguo.

Wang Boyan and Huang Qianshan of the main peace faction want to overthrow Li Gang of the main combat faction, and then go to the beautiful Jiangnan with Zhao Gou to enjoy the blessings.

Therefore, Wang Boyan and Huang Qianshan caught the evidence of Weng Yanguo's corruption and told Zhao Gou about it immediately.

Weng Yanguo didn't know whether it was because of the embarrassment of the incident, or because he was afraid of being pursued by Zhao Gou and the others, or some other reason. Anyway, not long after this incident happened, he left such a big mess and received a box lunch.

It may be because the Chinese pay attention to death, or it may be because corruption was more common at that time. Of course, it may also be that Li Gang wanted to protect Weng Yanguo. In short, Li Gang severely punished Wu Fang, but for the dead Weng Yanguo did not give any punishment.

Li Gang's handling of the matter in this way made Zhao Gou have a lot of opinions on him.

In addition, at that time, Zhao Gou only wanted to quickly end the war that made him extremely afraid, and did not want to fight any more, no matter what price he paid, but Li Gang had been pressing Zong Ze and the other main fighters together He resisted the gold, and even wanted him to return to Bianliang City, Tokyo to fight against the gold.

In addition, Wang Boyan, Huang Qianshan, and others from the Zhuhe faction have been on the sidelines to persuade Zhao Gou to replace Li Gang.

The point is, there is indeed a problem with Li Gang's handling of this matter.

As a result, Zhu Shengfei, who is also a leading fighter, also pointed out angrily at the critical moment: In this corruption case, Weng Yanguo is the principal criminal, and Wu Fang is only an accessory. The court only pursues the accessory criminals, not the principal criminals.

Zhu Shengfei strongly advocated that Weng Yanguo must be severely punished, even if he died, he should not be put down lightly.

As a result, Zhao Gou severely punished the dead Weng Yanguo, and because of this incident, Li Gang only served as prime minister for 75 days, and he capsized in the gutter and was pulled down.

Since then, Li Gang's official career began to decline, and he was demoted again and again, completely away from the court.

Li Gang was the prime minister of the main combat faction who was most capable of fighting in the early Southern Song Dynasty. He has always supported Zong Ze and others to regain their homeland.

After the shame of Jingkang happened, the Jin people retreated to the Yanyun area, and the Jin army completely withdrew from the south of the Yellow River. Zhang Bangchang returned the throne to the Zhao family, and the Zhao Song Dynasty had millions of troops at that time.

If Zhao Gou can work together with Li Gang, whether the small imperial court of the Southern Song Dynasty can regain Hebei and Hedong is still a matter of opinion, but it is still no problem to rule the Yellow River with the Kingdom of Jin.

But just because of this corruption case brought about by Weng Yanguo... Maybe this incident is just an introduction. In short, because Li Gang did not have the trust of Zhao Gou, he had no chance to display his talents, which made the small imperial court of the Southern Song Dynasty fight against Jin. Daye suffered a serious blow, and since then, Zhao Gou has devoted himself to negotiating peace and escaping. In the end, the Han Dynasty completely lost the Central Plains, and the Han people in the Central Plains were ruled by the Hu people for more than 200 years.

Because of this history, Li Cun had a bad impression of Weng Yanguo.

Therefore, Li Cun gave up recruiting Weng Yanguo after failing to recruit Weng Yanguo once.

Today, Li Cun only used 2 horses to defeat the 10,000+ Song Army of Weng Yanguo and other departments, breaking Weng Yanguo's courage.

Li Cun considered that now it is necessary to quickly quell the war in the Central Plains, and then he can destroy Zhao Gou and other remnants of the Zhao Song Dynasty, and complete the unification. It is really unnecessary to send Li Wei to surrender again because of small losses. Weng Yanguo.

Weng Yanguo was not a man of high integrity, and this battle made him fully understand how vulnerable the 10,000+ army he was proud of was against the dry army.

The point is, through this battle, Weng Yanguo also realized that the Zhao Song Dynasty was really over.

Therefore, with the steps given to him by Li Cun and the persuasion of his son-in-law Li Wei, Weng Yanguo finally chose to surrender in Kaesong.

It is worth mentioning that Zhao Zisong, He Zhitong, Rong Yi and others did not die in this battle. After going through several twists and turns, they finally went to vote for Zhao Gou's Generalissimo Mansion.

However, for Li Cun, these are all trivial matters, because after he has completely quelled the rebellion in the Central Plains, he will definitely go to recover the Sichuan-Shanxi area. Don't even try to run away.

After defeating the last Song army in the eastern part of the Central Plains and arming them, Li Cun immediately sent Song Jiang, Wu Yong and a large number of people to recruit all the defeated soldiers in the Central Plains, including bandits and rebels.

Li Cun personally issued an imperial decree, publicly declaring: As long as these defeated soldiers, bandits, and rebels surrender, everything before will be forgotten, and they will be promoted to rank...

In addition, Li Cun has already started persuading farmers, preparing to restore order in the Central Plains...

Everything seems to be developing in the direction Li Cun planned.

It was as if, in a short time, Li Cun would be able to complete the great unification and become an eternal emperor on a par with Qin Huang, Han Wu and Tang Zong.

however--

At this moment, Li Gang, who was guarding the Yanyun area, suddenly sent an urgent report to Li Cun: Wanyan Zonghan and Wanyan Zongwang had arrived in Yanzi City and Bei'an Prefecture respectively, and they were currently gathering troops. The Kingdom of Jin might invade the south again.

After receiving Li Gang's urgent report, Li Cun looked to the north and muttered to himself: "You are forcing me to return Jingkang shame to you!"
