The Struggle of the Reborn Prince

Cao Fu was ordered to travel tens of millions of times in Hebei for the second time to find King Kang Zhao Gou of Kang. He was escorted by Jin soldiers and was still guarded by the Yellow River. The Song army finally could not continue to escort him before giving up.

Cao Fu already knew that the Jin army was detecting the whereabouts of King Kang Zhao Gou, King Kang, so after crossing the Yellow River, Cao Fu came to Caozhou again and learned from the Caozhou custodian that Zhao Gou had received the first secret decree.

Daming Mansion was waiting for the Hebei troops to meet. Cao Fu handed over the secret edict to the governor of Caozhou and asked him to send someone to Zhao Gou. He walked around the opposite direction of Daming Mansion for a few days, and then went back to report his life.

Back in front of the Jurchen army, Cao Fu only said that he did not know where King Kang was and returned to the city to report his life. The Jurchens did not pay attention to him when they heard this. It turned out that the Jurchens had already discovered that Zhao Huan had called on all sides to serve the king in Xiangzhou, and it was already in its infancy.

, I knew that it would be a confidant to not take action early, so I sent an elite cavalry to plan a "snowy night attack on Xiangzhou". I thought that this long-distance military operation would be a great success, but I didn't know

But it was "a bamboo basket to get water, and a happy life."

I hope to be in the Mingming Mansion of Jingda Ming Dynasty. Zhao Gou, who heard this, was secretly grateful and said with his hands: "If Geng Nanshen had not persisted in leaving Xiangzhou on the 14th, he would not know what the good or bad is...

It turned out that Geng Nanzhong was the first to leave Beijing as a cemetery envoy and went to Weizhou with the Jin envoy, but before he could arrive, he was intercepted and killed the Jin envoy. Seeing that the situation was not good, the Jin envoy ran away. The guards learned that the priest was

Fu came to prepare to greet him, but the people refused to say that he was walking with the Jin envoy and could not let him enter the city. He had no choice but to find out that Zhao Gou was in Xiangzhou, so he went to join him, and his son Geng Yanxi was also there to serve.

Geng Nanzhong was a cunning man. When he saw Zhao Gou, he did not mention the cemetery, but he falsely passed the imperial edict, saying that he had all the troops from Hebei entered the capital to serve the king. At this time, Zhao Gou was stationed in Xiangzhou and watched the geological magnets on both sides and the guards.

Xing, other state officials and civilians flocked to him and urged him to raise an army to defend the king as soon as possible, but Zhao Gou entrusted that he did not dare to send troops without permission without receiving the imperial edict. It seemed that he was a person with no ambition who was cautious in his ministers.

Zhao Gou and Geng Nanshen hit it off. Zhao Gou ordered him to make an announcement overnight to all envoys from Hebei to hear about it and prepare for a large-scale move. The Grand Marshal's Mansion in Xiangzhou quickly assembled 10,000 troops, including Liu Hao, the Privy Councilor.

The righteous men recruited in Xiangzhou, the soldiers who served the kings in Xinde Prefecture, the soldiers who rescued Hedong Prefecture and the soldiers who defeated from Zhending and Liaozhou. This ten thousand people would definitely not be able to escape the siege of Tokyo.

King Kang Zhao Gou also issued an edict to Hebei, ordering the garrisons of all prefectures and counties to raise troops to support the king. He also secretly ordered the generals of the Grand Marshal's Office to set off from Xiangzhou to Daming Prefecture, and the prefectures and counties rushed to Daming Prefecture within a time limit according to the distance.

At this time, Huang Qianshan, the prefect of Xiangzhou, and others wanted to show their performance in front of King Kang, and insisted on fighting with the Jin army in Xiangzhou to smash their morale. The reason why Huang Qianshan was like this was that the king-supporting troops in other places were at most three.

There were two thousand people, and the troops he led were more than 13,000. He felt that he should have more say in Zhao Gou. It seemed that only by increasing his voice could Zhao Gou be more useful, so he openly challenged Geng Nanzhong.

It's also unique.

How could Geng Nanzhong not know these tricks, but he could not offend this powerful person too much in words, so he said lightly: "If the Jin people replied to the letter to make a fight, what if? If they don't fight, they will lose their mightyness and ruin the military and national affairs.

;In war, I am afraid that the chance of winning is not great. At that time, I was afraid that China and foreign countries would be shocked, and that national affairs would be even more uncontrollable. The best way is to accumulate energy and wait for changes, so that the Jin people do not know the truth and do not dare to be too arrogant and rampant.

”

Huang Qianshan wanted to say something else, but saw that Zhao Gou looked bad, so he had to ask for instructions to go to Caozhou and retreated unhappily. Seeing this, Zhao Gou comforted him and ordered him to lead the crowd to station in Caozhou. He knew very well.

The team has not yet been fully formed and is mostly dependent on the Geng family's father and son. In addition, the rulers of the Song Dynasty often have more intentions and guard against the ministers holding military power, and they may not lose their tails, so they suppress Huang Qianshan's more people than Yang.

A few days later, the exact news of the destruction of Bianjing City came. Now Zhao Gou had no excuse to wait and see and wait, so he decided to leave Xiangzhou and join the aid.

But until now, there are still people around to advise. It is better to guard against Xiangzhou and wait for things to change. This is obviously not a private statement to King Kang. How could Zhao Gou not make a decisive statement in front of everyone?

Father, brother, ancestors and country are all in an unexpected situation. If he sits peacefully and observes the changes in the times, how can he call others? He has no reason to sit still and watch it in public or private matters! In this regard, if Zhao Gou is still in a position, it is really

I can't explain it to the people of the world. Even if I pretend to be a grandson, I have to move my nest and express it. But from my heart, Zhao Gou is still afraid of the enemy as a tiger. He knows very well in his heart that this is too much

It's dangerous, but it's just like a tiger, and there's no choice!

Although how to raise troops to support the king is an important matter, how to march to ensure Zhao Gou's safety is particularly important. Not only did he understand that all the officials around him knew the weight and responsibility of his fish that was missing.

Although Zhao Taizong Guangyi's descendants are numerous, they are now trapped in Kaifeng, which is a great disaster. How to protect Zhao Gou's personal safety is more important in the minds of many people than entering Biandu to serve the king, so everyone agreed,

For safety, it would rather go by than take a shortcut to enter Kaifeng.

Geng Nanshen also advised Zhao Gou to leave quickly. He knew that he had to go early. It was already cold now. If he hesitated, how to evaluate the world's favors is also a big deal to prevent the people from speaking.

How can he explain to the world that people who rule the world with benevolence and filial piety have committed unfaithful and unfilial incidents? He happened to escape the arrest of the Jin army, and the credit was naturally counted on Geng Nanzhong!

A few days later, King Kang Zhao Gou received the second secret decree in Daming Mansion. At this time, the front army led by Liu Hao also arrived. Zhao Gou was anxiously waiting for the county magistrates in Hebei to recruit troops to meet, but at the same time he ordered

The people consolidated the city defense and strengthened patrols to prevent the Jin soldiers from sending elite cavalry to attack after they learned their whereabouts.

Zong Ze received a letter from the Grand Marshal's Mansion and set out in the snow on the same day. He fought bloody battles along the way, breaking more than 30 Jin soldiers' camps, and then crossing the river through ice, although they were all protected.

The stronghold of the transportation line is a powerful building, but it is shocking enough at this time!

After Zong Ze was the first to meet Zhao Gou, he immediately took the post of deputy marshal. Zhao Gou informed the situation in Tokyo and took out the secret edict brought by Cao Fu to show Zong Ze. He read the secret edict

, immediately realized that this was the Jurchens' trick. The Jurchens were worried that they could not conquer the Licheng. If the troops who were the kings in the world gathered in Tokyo and cooperated with the inside and outside, they would be attacked from both sides. Therefore, they wanted to use the emperor's hand to block the kings' troops and easily capture Hebei.

Therefore, he suggested entering Beijing quickly to serve the king.

However, Zong Ze's suggestion was rejected. Wang Boyan believed that the troops were too small, and there was a 100,000 Jin army under the city of Tokyo. He probably could not be able to lift the siege of Tokyo and had to be deeply trapped in it. Zhao Gou also believed that the rulings of various prefectures and counties had not yet

When he arrived, he had to wait a few more days before talking. Time passed day by day, Soze was restless in sleep and food. He knew that waiting for Tokyo would be more dangerous.

A few days later, Liang Yangzu, Zhixinde Prefecture, led 3,000 people to Daming, and under his command were Zhang Jun, Miao Fu, Yang Yizhong, Tianshi Zhong, and the commander. This army was considered a powerful brigade at this time.

The army of the Grand Marshal's Office was slightly more powerful. However, the king-supporting troops from all over Hebei were all afraid of fighting. Even if they did not fight with the Jin people, they had long heard that the Jurchens were terrible and were eager to return to the north.

He was unwilling to go south to lift the siege of Bianjing. Seeing the commander to go south, he took advantage of the darkness of the moon and high winds to set fire in the city, intending to create chaos and disrupt the morale of the army to prevent the going south. Fortunately, the fire was put out in time and the talents who planned to make chaos were not captured.

Caused a disaster...

On that day, Deputy Marshal Wang Boyan, Deputy Marshal Zong Ze, Liang Yangzu, Zhixinde Prefecture, and Commander Zhang Jun, Miao Fu, Yang Yizhong, Tian Shizhong and others gathered at Zhao Gou's Grand Marshal's Mansion to discuss how to advance troops and aid.

"Turn directly to Kaide Mansion, then force the Jin people to come down to the camp to untie the Kaifeng siege." Zong Ze first stepped out of the crowd and suggested that all the civil and military officials remained silent when they heard this.

"The emperor ordered us to move our troops closer to the land and not move lightly." Zhao Gou shook his head and sighed and said helplessly.

"This edict is absolutely not trustworthy! The Jin captors are greedy and cruel, and they have many tricks. How can they be the reason why the city is broken and the troops are not subdued? Cao Fu and others may have been captured by the Jin soldiers and were forced to pass the false edict!" Zong Ze

He insisted on his own opinion and said, "The Jin people are cunning and treacherous, which is clearly using tricks to stop me from entering. In Tokyo, the emperor is looking forward to reinforcements, so he must be eager to see them. Now he should quickly lead the army to Kaide Mansion to reinforce the capital."

"Liu Ju, a group of hundreds of thousands of Jin people, also had heavy troops to defend the fortresses in the capital of the capital under Kaifeng City. The day before yesterday, sent troops to inquire. The Jurchen army siege the city of Bianliang, and the Song army was only tens of thousands of troops, except for staying.

In addition to the elite defending the Grand Marshal, there were only more than 10,000 troops, half of which were newly recruited militias. The combat power can be imagined. If you just go to the king like this, the result will be self-evident." Wang Boyan

Say.

"Everything must be done within one's ability. Now the matter of resolution is important, and it is even more important to protect the marshal. The best way is to find a safe place to camp, wait for the arrival of the king-supporting troops in various places, and then make an appointment to join us.

The siege of the capital can be resolved!" At this point, Wang Boyan saw Zong Ze's face blushing, and Wang Kang nodded and smiled with praise.

Zhao Gou made a decision when the two deputy marshals had a disagreement, but Zhao Gou, who was only nineteen years old, was in the deep palace and had no military strategy or practical experience. He could not make this decision for a long time. Wang Boyan could not make it.

Seeing that Zhao Gou was hesitant, he suggested that Deputy Marshal Zong lead his troops as the vanguard and go to Tokyo to serve the king first. King Kang continued to sit in Daming Mansion, while discovering the weaknesses and reality of the Jin soldiers, while sending out an edict to recruit soldiers from all over the world, waiting for the soldiers to be small.

Then we head to the capital.

To be fair, Wang Boyan's words are nothing wrong, they are indeed a well-mannered and polite word.

Although the rescue is like putting out a fire, it is probably useless to lose money. Advances in a rash manner, and the loss of his wife and the loss of troops is inevitable. Zong Ze is a sensible person. He listened to Wang Boyan's analysis and said it was pertinent. He also met Geng Nanzhong, a close minister beside King Kang, and he also met Geng Nanzhong, a close minister beside King Kang.

Geng Yanxi and his son and Gao Shi followed suit, and everyone also claimed that they were yes, so they did not dare to be stubborn.

Zhao Gou felt that this method was good and the best of both worlds, so he transferred a thousand troops from the former army commander Liu Hao and other troops to the command of Deputy Marshal Zong, and ordered him to hold his own flag, and claimed that he would go to Kaide Mansion in the army. Zong Ze immediately

The army set out for Kaide Mansion...

The next day, Wang Boyan went to see Zhao Gou. Zhao Gou was also worried and happened to ask someone for advice. When he saw Wang Boyan coming, he hurriedly asked him what he had planned for the next action and when he would go to Zong Ze.

Wang Boyan believed that hundreds of thousands of Jin people surrounded the capital, and divided their troops to guard the key areas around the capital. From Weinan County, forty miles south of Kaide Prefecture to Beijing, all the way was Lianzhu Village, led by Jin soldiers, surrounding the capital.

It is impossible to escape from water. Everything is within its power, and with its current strength, it is impossible to resolve the siege of the capital.

Now the important thing is to arrange yourself firmly first, and then wait until the king-serious army in the world meets before discussing the matter of resolution. Now that the Jin soldiers are frequently traveling on the Yellow River, Kaide Mansion is not a safe place, and Daming Mansion is just apart from the Yellow River.

It is not enough to stay for a long time, so you should go to Dongping Prefecture to avoid it for a while!

"Isn't that getting farther and farther away from the capital? The emperor's secret decree ordered us to move troops near Tokyo so that we can rescue them in an emergency."

"I must place the king in a perfect place. Only by ensuring the safety of the king can we save the country from danger. If the king has any mistakes, when the king is in charge of the king and his troops arrive in the world, who can command the three armies?

If there are no leaders in the group of dragons, how can they be able to resolve the siege of Tokyo?"

"When will the King's Army be together? It's so anxious to wait."

"Oh!" Wang Boyan sighed and pointed to the heavy snow flying outside the door: "This is God's will! The snow has been accumulated for several feet on the flat ground, and soldiers from all walks are struggling, and it is extremely difficult to transport military weapons. I want to wait until the sky clears and snow turns.

, I really don’t know when I will wait until the road goes! This is God’s will!"

Discussing with the generals was just as Wang Boyan expected Liang Yangzu, Zhang Jun, Miao Fu and others also believed that the troops were insufficient, and going to Tokyo to rescue was tantamount to hitting stones with eggs. They were also worried that if Cao Fu returned to Beijing, he would be forced to be tortured by Jin Shuai.

If Zhao Gou is in Daming Mansion, I am afraid that the Jin soldiers will send a powerful brigade to come. Therefore, secretly traveling to Dongping Mansion can avoid powerful enemies and preserve their strength.

Seeing everyone's words, Zhao Gou decided to go to Dongping Prefecture first. The base is farther from Bianjing, and the security factor is increased by a few points. He did this and was really different from the pledge gold camp.

People, and in addition to their dissatisfaction with the emperor's brother, these changes are also related to his adventures these days...

A few days ago, when Zhao Gou planned to leave Xiangzhou and go to Daming, he asked the Yin-Yang official in the camp to choose the auspicious day of the zodiac sign. After choosing the day, he did not accept it. Instead, he left Xiangzhou a few days ago, and the Yin-Yang official selected

The predetermined day was exactly when the Jurchen Iron Cavalry came to the city, and he escaped the Jurchens' roundup.

Another thing is that when the army crossed the Yellow River, the Yellow River actually became livelihood so that they could not cross the river. After Zhao Gou's prayer to the sky, the weather turned cold again the next day, and the Yellow River was frozen. So, except for a few grain trucks that were trapped in the river due to overload.

In addition, all the three armies crossed the river.

Another time, on the way to Daming Mansion, Zhao Gou got up early and played far away from the camp, and only took a few entourages out for a trip. Just as they were playing the top, the Jurchens' detective suddenly appeared nearby.

After discovering it, he quickly fled back to the camp and passed by the Jurchens. If he was slower, he would become a prisoner of the Jin army.

After experiencing these coincidences, Zhao Gou believed in his heart that he was really auspicious person and heavenly beings. God was suggesting something in the dark. It was revealed that the heaven would not destroy Zhao, and those with virtue would bless him by heaven. There would be no disadvantages to good fortune.

And all kinds of auspicious signs seem to indicate that they are the one who is about to revive the Song Dynasty. The supreme position that only dares to think about but never dares to covet seems to be no longer far from me, and to achieve this goal, we must first

Keep your useful body...

In order to conceal the intention of marching, the generals of the Grand Marshal's Office discussed and first sent Liu Hao, the commander of the former army, to lead his troops to Junzhou and Huazhou. As a suspicious army, he attracted the Jin army and protected Zhao Gou to lead the main force to go east. Zong Ze made great efforts all the way.

He acted as if he crossed the Yellow River from Junzhou to the south to rescue Tokyo.

The Jin Kingdom's heavy troops were gathered at the city of Tokyo, and there was no main force from Daming Mansion to Kaide Mansion. Zongze led 10,000 soldiers to open a bloody road and marched into Kaide Mansion. Zongze ordered people to build a tree on the four walls of Kaide Mansion.

The "Zhao" flag of the Hebei Army Marshal's character "Zhao" threatened that the Grand Marshal Kang would be stationed here and called on the troops to serve the king from all directions. In order to find where Zhao Gou was at his feet, the Jurchens sent troops to investigate the direction of Shandong, but were stationed in Pu.

The Song army in Zhou, Caozhou and other places retreated.

Zong Ze's move immediately attracted the nearby Jin soldiers to the city. When Zong Han heard that Zhao Gou had arrived at Kaide Mansion, he immediately launched the most elite cavalry to attack. He could ignore other prefectures and counties for the time being, but King Kang Zhao Gou must not miss the net.

.

A team of Jin cavalry led the Song Dynasty's Secretariat to the city of Kaidefu. He held the edict and shouted to the city, asking Zhao Gou to come out to receive the order.

Of course, Zong Ze refused to let him in, so Zhang read the imperial edict loudly under the city, which made him furious and ordered the archers to shoot the traitor who had betrayed the king and father. The archers in the city all started their bows together after hearing the order.

The dense rain of arrows shot towards the city. The Jin soldiers under the city raised their shields to block the flying arrows, and protected Zhang and retreated.

In order to promote military power and boost morale, Zong Ze decided to personally choose soldiers with high martial arts skills to go out of the city to challenge. The former commander of the army Liu Hao recommended Yue Fei to fight. He really lived up to his expectations. He shot two Jin army flag bearers from left to right on the battle formation.

Then he led the crowd to fight with a gun, and picked up more than a dozen enemy troops, which was unstoppable!

"This person is a good general!" Zong Ze looked up and down and praised the strong man standing in front of him, and promoted Yue Fei to Xiuwulang in terms of merit and practice...
