The Struggle of the Reborn Prince

As soon as the team crossed the Yellow River, Senator Geng Yanxi made a sad voice, feeling sad as if his father had died. Nie Shan was not very good and was in a dull mood. He felt that it was difficult to go home again, but they looked at King Yan.

There is nothing wrong, sleep when you should, eat when you should, and you seem very happy to chat and laugh.

That night, the delegation stayed in Fengqiu City overnight. When they met the anxious ghost who returned to Beijing to deliver a letter, Nie Shan called him and asked about the situation ahead. Only then did he know that he came from Cizhou. After the Jurchens and East-West Armies conquered the Pingding Army.

He was about to join forces to go south, and he was ordered by the magistrate Zongze to go to the capital for help. After hearing this, several people felt timid and unwilling to move forward. They were originally the boss who was unwilling to do so, so they settled down in Fengqiu!

But the emperor was unhappy and scolded their passive and slackened their behavior. He sent someone to issue an edict to force them to move forward. Several people were helpless. After staying for three days, they suddenly found that there was more courage to follow them.

There are thousands of people.

"Prince, are these brave men recruited by you?" Nie Shan hurriedly found the prince and asked. He was worried that if these people lost control, they would threaten the safety of the mission.

"No, these people believed the rumors and thought we were going north to support Hebei in fighting against the Jurchens, and volunteered to join the team and follow us!" Zhao Qi shook his head and denied.

"Prince, then should we disperse and send them back to our hometown to avoid chaos?" Nie Shan said with concern.

"Mr. Geng, resisting Jin is the will of the people, and the people are eager to serve the country. If we drive it out, we may cause trouble if we don't do it well. This is not a capital city, we are weak, if we perform another bus and write to the book.

Let's go to peace and even civil rebellion. I'm afraid we will find it difficult to escape!" Zhao Qi said.

In the memory preserved by Zhao Qiong, history Nie Shan was ordered to cut off his tongue and corpse by the guards because he took the edict and ordered the people of Jiangzhou to hand over the city. In history, he also appeared in a positive image. Although it was the Lord and the Sect.

, but still have a loyal and righteous heart. At some point, it is still questionable to use the ruling war and the ruling harmony as the standard for distinguishing loyalty and treason.

"What the prince is thinking is that we went to Jin Camp to discuss peace. Will the army accompanying us cause misunderstandings?" Nie Shan thought for a while and expressed his concerns.

"Mr. Nie, do you think that our trip is just riding alone, and the Jurchens will stop making peace?" Zhao Qi asked back.

"This... is very difficult, even if we may find it difficult to escape!" Geng Nanzhong thought for a while and answered honestly.

"So we should be shirking rather than blocking the people's righteous deeds. When the Jin army saw that we were so powerful, we should also think about it. We will take the initiative during the peace talks, so that they dare not act rashly on us. Lord Nie, you said

Is this the truth?" Zhao Qiong said with a happy look.

"Well, what the prince said is very true. It is better to show his power than to wait for death. The Jurchens dare not be too arrogant." Nie Shan nodded and said yes, they had worked together, although they were doing things with the prince's way of doing things.

I have opinions, but I also know that the prince is not the kind of brainless muscular man. Otherwise, he would not have managed Hedong in an orderly manner.

"Yes, the strong will always have the final say on the negotiation table. Our blind tolerance will only arouse the greed of the Jurchens. Even if we ceded north of the Yellow River, they temporarily withdrew their troops. Then the Jurchens will come back again next time, we

Will you still cede Bianjing to them?" Zhao Qi continued to say when he saw Nie Shan moving.

"So we must protect the three towns in this peace talks, otherwise not only will Hebei not protect it, but Henan will also lose it. Will the tombs of the late emperors beneath the iron hoofs of the Jin people? If we lose the three towns, we will be the eternal sinners who have been infamous for thousands of years.

, What kind of face do you have to go back to meet the villagers? Even if you die, it will be difficult to get rid of the infamy of cede and selling the country. You have no face to meet the ancestors and ancestors underground!"

"The prince is really a loyal minister and righteous man. I am willing to follow the prince's leader and protect the three towns. I am not a pity for death!" Nie Shan said.

"Mr. Nie is sincere and can reveal the sun and the moon. If we go to the national crisis together, we will definitely leave our name in history!" Zhao Qiong said with politeness.

………

After convinced Nie Shan, the others were even more unwilling to care about this kind of thing. The regiment started to go back on the road, and went all the way north through Weizhou, Amway Army, and Tangyin. The volunteer team also became bigger and bigger like snowballs. Zhao Qiong

These people were organized into several armies, divided into horse army, infantry army and crossbow army, reorganized as they walked and contacted the local area to raise food and grass. On November 18, the number of people they arrived in Xiangzhou reached 30,000, and they met here

He arrived at the Censor Zhang.

Zhang Su was deeply aware of the crisis in Bianjing. When the people in the court were in panic, he took the initiative to submit a request to go to Hebei to recruit soldiers to the capital. Zhao Huan agreed and asked him to take a wax letter to Hebei. He contacted the prefectures in Xiangzhou with letters.

Recruited 70,000 to 80,000 people from Ding Zhuang Township. After two negotiations, he was willing to station troops in Xiangzhou as a support. Two days later, the delegation arrived in Cizhou. Zong Ze, the governor of Cizhou, welcomed them into the city, because of his stubbornness.

Zhao Huan dismissed his peace envoy and asked him to go out to govern Cizhou.

Cizhou is north of the Yellow River, and Jin soldiers are about to reach the city. At that time, officials appointed by the court to go north of the Yellow River. They knew that this was sent to the tiger's mouth, so most of them used excuses to delay. A small team of guards led by Zong Ze was also afraid of death.

I stayed all night on the way, and when I woke up in the morning, I saw that the guards were almost gone. The sixty-year-old man rode alone to Cizhou to take office.

As soon as Zong Ze arrived in Cizhou, he organized the military and civilians to repair the city, dug moats and build a building, recruited volunteers, prepared equipment, and prepared to persevere. He also wrote to Zhao Huan to suggest that the five prefectures of Xing, Ming, Ci, Zhao and Xiang jointly defend, gathered troops and horses in each prefecture to recruit militias.

, support each other and rescue each other in the war.

Zhao Qiong entered the city to ask about the movements of the Jin army. After learning that the Jin army conquered Zhending, they continued to go south, but they didn't carry much food. They learned that Xiangzhou, and Cizhou had already been firmly cleared in order to prevent them from robbing. After moving the food into the city, they bypassed it.

Without attacking Cizhou and Xiangzhou, they drove their troops east to attack Daming Prefecture in Beijing.

Zongze learned that Zhao Jie was going to Jinying to negotiate, and urged him not to go and send himself into the tiger's mouth when the army was approaching and the situation was critical. Peace was just a trick of the Jurchens, and the Jurchens could not be sent to peace talks. Zhao Jie

Before he could say anything, Wang Yun, the Minister of Justice, was dissatisfied.

A few days ago, Wang Yun had learned that Zong Ze had submitted a memorial to impeach his lord and the country, and now he came out to stop the King of Yan from serving an envoy. He felt that Zong Ze would be shouting every day that he would fight the Jin army and sing a bloody tune with the court, which would be the soldiers of the Song Dynasty.

, How can you stop the Jin cavalry and not discuss peace? Can you really retreat the Jin soldiers? And now you have finally persuaded the emperor to send the King of Yan to serve as an envoy, but the King of Yan is also in charge of the war, once he takes Yan

After the king was moved, the hope of stopping the peace talks will be vain... (To be continued...)
