Powerful Song Dynasty

Chapter 1639 Either die or accept humiliation

Wang Xiu's attitude towards Cai Songnian was nothing short of an insult, a humiliation to the entire northern scholastic community. When Qin Min told him that he was very surprised, even the officials were very upset. Also resist Wang Xianggong's blatant contempt.

When it comes to this level, it is no longer the confrontation between the military forces of the North and the South, but the struggle of the scholars between the North and the South.For the only remaining face problem, the northern scholars are absolutely unwilling to be suppressed. Cai Songnian's kneeling represents the surrender of the northern scholars. The Jiangbei and southern scholars are completely suppressed. This is what they never want to see.

However, when scholars encountered absolute pressure, they had to succumb, just like they succumbed to the Jurchens back then.There is no suspense, everyone has a sharp knife in their hands, can your neck win a steel knife?

Qin Min had already said cryptically that in order to demonstrate the majesty of the Great Song Dynasty, Wang Xianggong did not hesitate to kill.

When Wang Xiu arrived at the south gate, he saw Cai Songnian standing on the side of the city gate holding a seal and ribbon. Only Qin Min was wearing a purple robe and stood beside him with his hand on the handle of a knife. When he saw him coming slowly on horseback, With an extremely complex expression, he slowly fell to his knees on the ground.

"Civil Minister Cai Songnian, kowtow to Wang Xianggong."

"Hmm." Wang Xiu ignored Cai Songnian, with a very serious face, and just pointed forward with the whip.

Qin Min understood that Wang Xiu was doing it for others to see, and that the Great Song Xingchao had returned, and it was a strong posture that suppressed people's hearts. It had to be put on for others to see, and said softly, "Master Cai will lead the way."

Cai Songnian was trembling as he spoke, barely stood up, but still gritted his teeth, holding the seal and walking to lead the way for Wang Xiu, it was obviously a great humiliation, so he should not go out to meet people.

However, he dared not disobey!The Qin Min next to him can kill without batting an eyelid. He once argued with reason, and even said that Wang Xiu could humiliate him, but he could not humiliate scholars. However, the other party directly beheaded six or seven subordinates, and then said that he did not hesitate to kill. words.

The newcomer, who joined the army, was even more brutal. He almost wiped out the aliens in the city in two days. He was scared out of his wits and no longer dared to fight.

Under the guidance of Cai Songnian, Wang Xiu entered Yanshan Prefecture, the former Changping County of Youzhou, and he was deeply moved.

During the Xuanhe period, the imperial court regained the thirteen prefectures of Jibei, but it was redeemed with money. In a real sense, it was not regarded as taking it by oneself, and it even had a strong sense of humiliation.

Today, he really came here with absolute strength. Over the past twenty years, he came here with his strong national strength. No one dared to say tricks, let alone criticize him. The winner should not be blamed.

However, when he saw the eyes of the people on both sides of the street, they were absolutely indifferent. It was the invading army that had nothing to do with entering the city.It is more of an indifferent attitude, which makes him feel very uncomfortable. It is more difficult to achieve hundreds of years of recovery and restore the people's will than to expel the extinct Jurchen. It may take decades, and it is hard to say in a hundred years. Look at the strategy and administration of the court's assimilation.

Cai Songnian was filled with grief and indignation. He never thought that he would lead the way with a seal and ribbon, even if he was forced to do so by the steel knife, he could not help but succumbed.

Walking on the street, feeling the glaring gazes made her feel even more angrily, and she didn't dare to turn around and scold Wang Xiu.

There was a commotion among the people nearby, and the forbidden army kept yelling and suppressing. The scene was chaotic, and Wang Xiu couldn't help frowning. What kind of drama was this? It seemed that Cai Songnian was still a little ashamed.

Qin Min walked over to have a look, then turned around indifferently and said, "Sir, he was out of breath and passed out."

"Forget it, take him down for treatment, let's go to the yamen." Wang Xiu didn't lose his temper, and didn't have any worries. Since he wanted to humiliate Cai Songnian, he was ready for any response, including this guy's sudden fainting.

So what if the people see it?So what if they are disgruntled?As long as you dare to resist the imperial court, you will be killed without mercy, without any nonsense.If the whole city dared to riot and resist the imperial court, he would never show mercy. It was just a prefectural city, and if it was slaughtered, it would be slaughtered, and the land would be vacated for others to cultivate.

Sometimes, only after a great destruction can there be great prosperity, and everything can be broken and started again. This kind of scene is the favorite of merchants like Wang Qingzhu.

The support of the people is relative, the benevolent government is aimed at the people of the dynasty, the conquered people will naturally not be reconciled, they will submit to you honestly, and they will naturally treat you as a Chinese. After three generations, they are not qualified now.

Yu Yunwen followed behind, looking at Wang Xiu's tall and upright background, he felt really uncomfortable in his heart, he could understand but couldn't agree, and finally just followed silently.

Wang Xiu sits in the Yanshan Mansion to control the various ministries, and the imperial army of the Song Dynasty develops in all directions. Like a raging tide, it sweeps across the military states in the north, and wherever it goes, it looks like the wind is falling.

Cheng Jiao received Wang Xiu's secret order, so he understood it by heart, and he did not attack Juyongguan with all his strength. His [-]-odd army lined up for surveillance, but only attacked in batches of thousands of people, showing the existence of the imperial guards of the Great Song Dynasty. Just accept it.

In fact, Uyan Puluhun knew very well that he wisely did not provoke, on the contrary, he showed weakness very cooperatively, so that the Song army earned enough face, so that they did not receive a strong blow.

Compared with the Jin army, the retreat is quite difficult and extremely challenging. The flying cavalry army is commanded by Zhang Xian, who is a brother trained by Yue Fei. His qualifications are quite deep. His troops quickly moved northward, and the progress was very fast. , directly crossed Huai'an County and Xuande County, and continued to launch offensives on the flanks of the Jin Army.

That's why Wu Lie led ten thousand riders to attack Zhang Xian. Wu Lu and Ye Luhui were able to pull out tens of thousands of people, but they could not avoid being harassed by a small group of horse troops. out of Longmen.

In fact, Zhang Xian also received the order, and it was useless to use all his strength at all. With Wu Lie's defeated troops, it was impossible to resist the flying cavalry army attacking with all their strength.

The Recruitment Department of Northwest Road immediately sent troops to greet them. Since Sariyao defeated Qi Yan and Ke Lie, the southern part of Linhuangfu Road was in a vacuum.

Yeluhui was in charge of collecting the edge of the Longmen, Wulu was in Hengzhou, and Wulie rode [-] to the north, sweeping Qingzhou and Linhuang Mansion, and the Jin troops stationed there surrendered one after another. Many people killed the officials who were loyal to Digunai and returned.

At this time, Wuyan Puluhun also gave up Juyongguan, broke through the obstruction of Zhang Xian's army, and went out of Longmen without any rest. He immediately led his troops to the north, rushed through the flat pine forest after a long distance, went straight down the Huanghe River to break Changning, and defeated more than ten thousand people loyal to Di Gu Nai's Golden Army basically stabilized the situation in the south of Linhuangfu Road, at least giving Wulu a place to rely on.

The whole situation has gradually formed the framework that Wang Xiu needs, and the situation of the northern heroes competing for the throne has taken shape.
