Daming Super Dimension Company, President Zhu Yuanzhang!

Chapter 116 Zhao Gou’s twelve gold medals!

"But are the twelve gold medals there?" Xiao Ran said to Yue Fei.

"But to be honest, Zhao Gou sent you this gold medal. Although he said a lot of cruel words, in fact, if you don't want to listen to him, it's not impossible, right?"

He reached out and took a gold medal and looked around.

Hey, it’s really not pure gold, it’s just inlaid with gold!

This gold medal is made of wood into a strip, about a foot long, and is covered with vermilion paint. On it are engraved eight golden "warning" characters: "Imperial writing, no entry into the shop."

Therefore, this thing is not valuable at all if it is buckled as gold.

Might as well keep it as a cultural relic.

This gold medal system began in the sixth year of Song Yuanfeng.

Thousands of years later, many people believed that these "twelve gold medals" were the imperial court's order to dispatch troops and generals, and a signal for traitors to kill Yue Fei.

actually not.

This "gold medal" is not a passing token, but a special symbol for delivering mail as quickly as possible. It is one of the various communication certificates in the Song Dynasty.

Generally speaking, this kind of gold medal is used for pardon letters and military matters, and is issued directly by the emperor.

The "imperial writing" here refers to the official documents and letters sent from the emperor.

It also stipulates that "no entering the stalls" means that when delivering mails, post officials are not allowed to hand over the mails in the post station, but can only deliver them one by one on horseback.

Although this greatly shortened the delivery time of mails, accelerated the speed, and increased the work efficiency of post officials. But it also consumes more manpower and material resources. If it is not an urgent matter, there is no need to use this thing.

But this time, Zhao Gou won twelve gold medals in one day.

According to the "History of the Song Dynasty", the "gold medal" was dazzling, flying as fast as lightning when delivered, and everyone who looked at it avoided its shadow. It traveled 500 miles a day, ringing the bell day and night to deliver it.

Xiao Ran watched silently and muttered: "This thing is comparable to the SF Express."

"But if I bring it directly back to modern times, it shouldn't be able to be identified. It will be directly recognized as an industrial product." Xiao Ran returned the gold medal in his hand to Yue Fei.

"You should keep it well. This set will be a good thing after more than a thousand years."

Xiao Ran could even imagine how the history of this parallel world would be rewritten.

Yue Fei had to withdraw his troops, and the Jin soldiers once again occupied the territory of the Song Dynasty. The country was in danger under the control of Qin Hui and other treacherous ministers.

Even thousands of years later, the bronze statue of Qin Hui kneeling in front of the Yue Fei Temple has been trampled into disgrace.

In this world, it is estimated that Yue Fei has long seen through the collusion between the traitor and the Jin people, pretended to return to the court, lured the enemy deep and annihilated the enemy in one fell swoop, completely smashed the traitor's plan, and also achieved the unification of the region .

This ending makes me feel comfortable just thinking about it.

After getting ready, a few people got up and set off.

Zhao Kuangyin and Xiao Ran were both following Yue Fei and were protected by layers of Yue family troops.

On the way to the urgent march, Xiao Ran had to be grateful that he had learned how to ride a horse from Judy when he was bored before, otherwise he would probably be held back now.

In the dark night.

Xiao Ran was protected by Yue Fei's personal guards.

What made him stunned was that a living person like himself appeared out of thin air. When Yue Fei took him and Zhao Kuangyin out, not one of the Yue family soldiers asked a question.

Yue Fei asked them to protect him with all their strength, one by one, without even the slightest hesitation or question.

The night wind brought flying sand and stones, blowing finely and densely across his face, like a knife cutting him.

Xiao Ran didn't feel uncomfortable at all while riding on the horse, and even became excited.

After finding the target, Yue Jiajun's speed gradually slowed down.

Soon, someone came in and out secretly.

If Xiao Ran hadn't been following Yue Fei, he wouldn't have known that there were spies already sent out.

After traveling to different dynasties again and again, Xiao Ran has discovered that the wisdom of the ancients is actually no worse than that of modern people.

This time, Xiao Ran witnessed Yue Fei's leadership ability with his own eyes.

In just an instant, the situation on the entire battlefield had changed.

The war was about to break out, and all the soldiers in the front rushed forward.

Xiao Ran and Zhao Kuangyin were protected in the rear by Yue Fei.

Xiao Ran excitedly took out a high-definition camera from his backpack and recorded this scene. If there is a chance to play it back in the future, I don't know how awesome it would be!
He adjusted the lens to a high magnification. How can I say that war reporters from the Song Dynasty could be more interesting than this? !
But when the front end of the battlefield, where the two armies were intersecting, was photographed, it came into Xiao Ran's eyes.

The people who were still alive fell to the ground in an instant. In the chaos, there were countless limbs and broken arms, and even countless people's heads were crushed under the horses' hooves, and their brains exploded all over the ground in an instant.

Even if someone is lucky and doesn't die so miserably, enemies will come forward and cut off his ears or cut off his entire head.

Xiao Ran's face turned slightly pale, and the strong smell of blood had spread to his nose.

Even though the Jin army was caught off guard and had the intention of escaping, it was still unable to retreat.

With the sound of war drums and fighting, roaring and shouting in his ears, Xiao Ran's hands were shaking a little, but it wasn't because he was afraid.

The blood and the roaring adrenaline on the battlefield make people tremble with uncontrollable excitement.

Zhao Kuangyin looked at Xiao Ran in front of him, but his eyes were on the camera in his hand.

This thing is really magical. It can record all the previous scenes. Even from such a distance, it can still be seen clearly. It is really a magical thing!

If I could get a few of them for my Da Song Dynasty...

Zhao Kuangyin began to think about it. He would discuss this matter with Xiao Ran later. It should be something that can be bought with gold, right?

Things that can be solved with money are the simplest things. Da Song has nothing else but focuses on a guy who is extremely rich.

This war, no matter how quickly and smoothly it is fought, will still have casualties.

At the same time, the news that Yue Fei turned back on his way back to the court also spread back.

Zhao Gou and Qin Hui both looked a little ugly.

At this time, Zhao Gou and Qin Hui came to the same goal in this matter. Although their interests and concerns were different, their final thoughts were the same.

We can't let Yue Fei continue to fight, we have to let him come back.

Qin Hui could not spare Yue Fei's life even in order to eliminate future troubles forever.

As for Zhao Gou, he also had some hesitation in his heart. A general who could fight like this was indeed useful, but Yue Fei's prestige among the people was also very high.

What's more, in some places, he only knew Marshal Yue but not Emperor Zhao. This always made him feel a little uncomfortable.

In addition, the Song Dynasty originally valued literature over military affairs, so Zhao Gou did not attach much importance to and favor Yue Fei.

……

In the palace.

Zhao Gou looked at the eunuch who came back to report the news with gloomy eyes.

"Is Yue Fei really going back?"

Zhao Gou also clenched his fists tightly, thinking that if he really asked Yue Fei to welcome back someone who shouldn't come back...

In the sixth year of Shaoxing, that is, in August 1136 AD, Yue Fei launched a northern expedition to the Puppet Qi Dynasty and recovered all the dangerous places in Xijing. He captured tens of thousands of horses and hundreds of thousands of grains. The Central Plains responded. This is what the saying goes: "The long drive will enter the three rivers, and the sound will be heard on the five roads."

At this time, Wu Qimai, Emperor Taizong of the Jin Dynasty, died of illness, and his grandnephew Hela succeeded to the throne.

Hela believed that Liu Yu's "Great Qi Kingdom" was too weak and instead of becoming a barrier to the Jin Kingdom, it became a burden to the Jin Kingdom. So he abolished the pseudo-Qi Kingdom title the following year and demoted Liu Yu to the title of King of Shu.

What I want to say here is that those who crossed the Bianshui River and entered Tokyo to capture Liu Yu were the famous Wu Shu, Ta Lan and other famous generals of the Jin Kingdom.

They summoned all the civil and military officials of the puppet Qi Dynasty outside Xuande Gate, read Hela's edict aloud, and then sent thousands of cavalry to show off their military power in the inner palace in Tokyo. As a signer, I dare not spare you the money. Please invite your old master, the Young Emperor, to come and sit here."

What does this sentence mean?

The main idea is: From now on, the Kingdom of Jin will no longer collect you as a sign army, and you will no longer need to pay taxes.

But the key point is the last sentence: "Please invite your old master, the Young Emperor, to come and sit here."

This "old master Young Emperor" was Song Qinzong Zhao Huan who was captured into the Jin Kingdom.

"Coming here to live and sit" means going to Tokyo to become emperor.

Wu Shu wanted to re-establish a puppet state in Tokyo, so the puppet emperor directly appointed Zhao Huan as Liu Yu's second and Zhang Bangchang's third.

This move can be described as a surprise victory.

According to etiquette, "no brother can quarrel with his brother." Zhao Huan is the brother and Zhao Gou is the brother. There is no reason for the younger brother to quarrel with his elder brother.

Moreover, compared with Zhao Huan, Zhao Gou's throne was self-proclaimed, and Zhao Huan's throne was inherited from generation to generation by Guo Zuo of the Song Dynasty. In theory, Zhao Huan was the orthodox emperor of the Song Dynasty.

Then why use Zhao Huan instead of Song Huizong Zhao Ji to be the puppet emperor?
Zhao Ji, Emperor Huizong of the Song Dynasty, was Zhao Gou's biological father. With his father suppressing his son, wasn't his momentum even more powerful and irresistible to Zhao Gou?
Wu Shu did not want to appoint Song Huizong Zhao Ji as the puppet emperor.

The problem is that Zhao Ji has already died, which is a bit embarrassing.

Then he arrived in Shaoxing for seven years. At the end of this year, Talan also spread the news of Zhao Ji's "death" across the Yangtze River, indicating that Zhao Gou could send people to the Kingdom of Jin to welcome Zi Palace.

This good behavior of being lazy hides an ulterior secret.

That is, the leaders of the Jin Kingdom changed, the puppet Qi was replaced by the new, the political situation was unstable, and they intended to negotiate peace with the Southern Song Dynasty.

Zhao Gou was originally worried that his small court would not survive, and his greatest wish in his life was to keep the southern half of the Yangtze River peaceful.

So the two sides hit it off.

A contract was signed in May of the eighth year of Shaoxing, and the agreement is as follows.

Southern Song Dynasty.

1. Pay tribute to the gold master.

2. Zhao Gou automatically canceled the imperial title and the country title of Song Dynasty, and existed as a vassal of the Jin Kingdom.

Regarding the Kingdom of Jin.

One, return Zhao Ji’s coffin.

Second, return Zhao Gou’s biological mother, Webster.

Third, the areas south of the Yellow River and north of the Huai River that originally belonged to the Puppet Qi were all assigned to the Southern Song Dynasty.

Back then, Zhao Gou could even agree to these conditions for his own rule, so what bottom line could there be?

Immediately, he made a decision in his mind.

"Since he disobeyed the imperial edict, he should be treated as a crime of treason."

Zhao Gou made a quick decision in his mind. As long as Yue Fei "conspired to rebel", what if he welcomed back the Second Saint?

The prisoners of the Jin army who were defeated by Yue Fei could also be his collaboration with the enemy, and then the famous leader who returned in triumph led the Jin army into the pass.

There are also two saints, whether they are true or false can be discussed.

The little eunuch trembled, responded calmly, and retreated.

After this decree is issued, Marshal Yue, whether he is a treasonous person or not, can only become a treasonous person and has no other choice.

There was no way for him to survive in the Song Dynasty, and Yue Fei had no way to deal with the next supplies and food. With no ammunition and food, he had no choice but to surrender to the Jin army.

I still want to have other possibilities, other choices, unless a miracle happens and the current deadlock is broken.

But the current situation is already very difficult.

the other side.

Prime Minister's Mansion.

Qin Hui got the news much faster than Zhao Gou.

Even the news coming out of the palace, he knew immediately.

"Hahaha, I thought I was going to be in trouble this time, but I didn't expect that Yue Fei was asking for his own death!"

"only……"

Qin Hui's eyes became cold again: "Now he still ruined my good deeds."

……

As for Yue Fei and the soldiers who had just fought a victorious battle, after learning the news, the lively atmosphere condensed instantly.

The soldiers were all downcast, and most of them were at a loss.

"Marshal Yue, what should we do in the future?"

"Is it possible..."

Yue Fei looked at Xiao Ran.

After getting along with each other for this period of time, he has already seen that Xiao Ran is obviously the dominant one between Xiao Ran and Zhao Kuangyin.

Moreover, Xiao Ran, who came from the future, should have more different opinions.

"It's okay. Don't worry about Zhao Gou. At worst, give up on him. The blood of the Zhao family is as good as his."

"Back then, Zhao Goulian could even sign treaties that were humiliating to the country and humiliating the country, so there was nothing he couldn't do."

As he spoke, he sneered.

"If the Kingdom of Jin sincerely hoped for good relations between the two countries, it should not have waited many years to convey the obituaries of Emperor Huizong and Queen Xiansu. The reason why they agreed to the peace negotiation was because they did not want the King of the Song Dynasty to leave."

"The Jin people negotiated a peace treaty to cede land, with the Yellow River as the boundary. Of course, the Song Dynasty could return to its old land, but these thousands of miles of uninhabited land had no conquests in ten years and no wealth was produced."

"If Su soldiers were sent to guard the country, the Jin people would definitely ask for money and silk, adding a financial burden to the Song Dynasty. As time went by, they would not have to send troops to attack, and the Song Dynasty would also perish on its own. "

Yue Fei nodded: "Dogs and sheep must have an alliance and trust!"

"Back then, I went to Shu Tongguan and told him that the Jin people cannot be trusted, peace talks cannot be relied on, and prime ministers do not care about the country, for fear that they will be ridiculed by future generations."

Xiao Ran took over the conversation: "But Zhao Gou didn't listen to you at that time."

Yue Fei remained silent.

"So everything that happened after that happened is logical. In May of the 10th year of Shaoxing, the Jin Kingdom unilaterally tore up the peace treaty before the alliance was dry and the blood was still flowing, and the entire country's troops went south to conquer the Song Dynasty."

Fortunately, the Southern Song Dynasty at this time had a large number of loyal ministers and generals such as Yue Fei, and its military strength was far from what it was in the late Northern Song Dynasty.
