Xianxia version of Water Margin

…

After Jiang Hongfei executed Tian Hu, Zhang Qing searched Tian Hu for the "Imperial Seal" that Jiang Hongfei had used to exchange for Hebei and presented it to Jiang Hongfei.

In this way, Jiang Hongfei could finally own the Imperial Seal legitimately, instead of hiding it in Jiang Hongfei's Qiankun bracelet as before.

——If Jiang Hongfei had taken out the Imperial Seal at that time, it might have damaged Jiang Hongfei's character, and it might have angered Tian Hu, and Jiang Hongfei's plan would have gone out of control.

This is not a trivial matter.

You know, people nowadays believe in destiny, otherwise why do you think Tian Hu would give up fighting with Jiang Hongfei for Hebei because of the so-called "destiny"? Even until his death, he thought that the reason he lost to Jiang Hongfei was that destiny did not follow him but Jiang Hongfei did?

Now, the imperial seal has returned to Jiang Hongfei's hands after many twists and turns. Moreover, Jiang Hongfei has gained Hebei, the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, the Three Prefectures of Pingluanying, and a large area of ​​land north of the Yellow River in Hedong, which has a great unification trend. This seems to further confirm that Jiang Hongfei is destined to be the emperor.

This indirectly led to a large number of talents under Tian Hu joining Jiang Hongfei.

The Zhe family army, which lost the three prefectures of Lin, Fu, and Feng, suddenly became a rootless duckweed, and the Zhe family army retreated to Wudaoliangmao and soon ran out of food and aid.

At this time, Wu Yong went to surrender the Zhe family army in person.

After Tian Hu occupied Hedong, he wanted to develop towards Hexi (Shaanxi, the part west of the Yellow River, that is, Yan'an Prefecture).

Taking advantage of this great victory, Wu Yong, Du Fu, and Han Shizhong occupied Linzhou again.

Soon, Xu Guanzhong sent a victory report that they defeated Fang Xuedu and captured him alive.

Because of Yelu Nanxian's relationship, Li Qianshun was indeed very close to Yelu Yanxi. Yelu Yanxi had even wanted to flee to Xixia for political asylum, and Xixia had also sent troops to help Yelu Yanxi attack Yundi.

The situation was pressing, and the Zhe family had to either surrender to the Yuan Empire completely or perish.

In this battle, the Zhe family army lost more than 5,000 troops and was driven to Wudaoliangmao by the Yuan army.

It was said that the Jinning army led by Xu Huiyan and hundreds of thousands of civilian warriors in Fen and Jin had been resisting Tian Hu's westward advance.

Although many Xixia people, including Li Qianshun, looked unhappy, no one argued, and some even listened with a smile on their faces.

Han Shizhong guessed that Jiang Hongfei would fight Xixia sooner or later. If he knew more about Xixia than others, he might become the commander-in-chief of the expedition against Xixia.

Wu Yong personally went to persuade Xu Huiyan to surrender, promising: "If you can surrender, Jialiang is willing to ask for you to lead Yan'an for generations."

Jiang Hongfei did not forget that Xixia had sent 30,000 troops to help Yelu Yanxi attack his Yundi, and Li Qianshun had also thought about his Yundi and even his Hedong.

Han Shizhong talked about the battle of Qingshui River, and also described with emotion how the Yuan army defeated the coalition led by the Xia army.

Under such circumstances, the provocation of Han Shizhong and Zhe Yanwen was naturally useless.

Zhe Keqiu followed the plan and led the Jinning army into the encirclement of the Yuan army.

But no matter what, Yelu Nanxian was the queen of Xixia. The Yuan Empire asked the queen of her country to go back and punish her, which was simply a great disrespect for her country.

Because of this relationship, the Zhe family army and the Jinning army have always been in the same spirit and helped each other.

——In history, after Zhe Keqiu was poisoned to death by the Jin people, Zhe Keqiu's son Zhe Yanwen fled to Hedong with his family, and Xixia took the opportunity to capture Fuzhou. Xixia hated Zhe's long-term resistance to Xia and destroyed all the tombs of Zhe. This shows how deep the hatred between the two sides was.

Han Shizhong was not fooling around. He went to Xixia to explore the terrain of Xixia.

Han Shizhong and Du Fu led 30,000 Yuan troops to surround and attack the reinforcements and ambush Zhe's army.

There was no way, Zhe Keqiu could only do what Wu Yong said.

The Jinning Army fought dozens of times with Tian Hu's million-strong army, killing, wounding and capturing countless enemies.

Later, Tian Hu's troops learned that the Jinning Army drank river water, so they transported stones, wood, bamboo and grass to block the tributaries, and the water in the city was cut off and the food was gradually exhausted.

Based on this, it is not unreasonable for the Yuan Empire to ask for Yelu Nanxian.

As soon as the two arrived in Xixia, they showed off their power.

Xu Huiyan was captured alive.

That's why Wu Yong wanted to use Zhe Keqiu to get rid of the Jinning Army.

It was not until noon that Wang Sheng, who had been ambushed by Han Shizhong, suddenly led 3,000 cavalry from behind the Zhejia Army Camp and robbed his family camp, and the Zhejia Army was defeated.

In less than a month, E Quanzhong, An Renmei, Ru Tingqi, Yuan Jingda, Shan Jinglong and other Jin generals surrendered one after another, and the power of Jin in Hedong almost collapsed.

After Zhe Keqiu knew that he had been tricked, he quickly led 20,000 Zhejia troops back to Fuzhou to rescue his family and clansmen.

The peace treaty signed by Jiang Hongfei and the Zhao Song Dynasty stated that the Zhao Song Dynasty ceded Hedong to Jiang Hongfei, including the three states of Lin, Fu, and Feng, which were the areas controlled by the Zhe family.

Han Shizhong didn't really want to help Jiang Hongfei ask for Yelu Nanxian. He just wanted to embarrass Xixia, provoke Xixia, and test Xixia's bottom line.

——In simple terms, the Zhe family army resisted the northern forces of Tian Hu's army; the Jinning army resisted the central forces of Tian Hu's army; and the Jingyuan army resisted the southern forces of Tian Hu. Although the Jingyuan army had also been fighting with Tian Hu, most of the Jingyuan army was in the Jingzhao Prefecture of Shaanxi and did not enter Hedong. In Hedong, all prefectures were captured, and the areas controlled by the Zhao Song Dynasty were only the three prefectures of Lin, Fu, and Feng controlled by the Zhe family army and the area west of Jinning Prefecture controlled by the Jinning army.

Soon, Jiang Hongfei moved into the palace built by Tian Hu in Weisheng Mansion, and only sent a group of generals from the Dayuan Army to cut off the remnants of the Jin Kingdom and completely regain Hedong.

The commander-in-chief of the Jinning Army of the Zhao and Song Dynasties was Wu Jinglang, who knew the Jinning Army and was also Lan, and Xu Huiyan, the pacification envoy along Shilu.

It is worth mentioning that after Jiang Hongfei asked Wu Yong, Du Bo, and Han Shizhong to capture Fengzhou, Wu Yong and others were not idle.

Zhe Keqiu left without saying anything more.

As a result, the Jinning Army was ambushed by nearly 100,000 Dayuan Army and Zhejia Army and was severely defeated.

The main force among them is the Jinning Army.

Everything is going on in an orderly manner...

At the same time, Jiang Hongfei mobilized capable officials to govern Hedong, provide disaster relief, conduct public trials, forgive debts, allocate fields, distribute grain, and persuade farmers...

Jiang Hongfei sent people from the Zhe family as envoys to Xixia, clearly to provoke them.

Seeing that Wu Yong was too stubborn, he offered wine to compensate and smiled to flatter him.

Zhe Yanwen listed all the major battles in which the Zhe family defeated Xixia over the years.

After the Jinning Army was eliminated, all of Hedong was incorporated into the territory of the Yuan Empire.

The contemporary head of the Zhe family is Zhe Keqiu.

Xu Huiyan said sternly: "You are ruthless to the country, what relationship do I have with you?" After saying that, he spat on Zhe Keqiu's face.

Zhe Keqiu had no choice but to pretend to be defeated and go to Xu Huiyan to ask him to send troops to help him recover the three prefectures of Lin, Fu, Feng, Lan, and Shi that were occupied by the Yuan army.

Under Wu Yong's "persuasion", Zhe Keqiu agreed to do two things:

Wu Yong knew that the Jinning Army was also a huge threat to the Yuan Empire's expansion into Shaanxi, and that the Song Army of Jinning was the biggest hidden danger in Hedong after the Zhejia Army surrendered to the Yuan Empire.

Later, not only the talents under Tian Hu, but also the talents from the Zhao and Song dynasties, the talents under Wang Qing's rule, the talents under Fang La's rule, and even the talents who had previously defected to Xixia from the Zhao and Song dynasties came to join the Yuan Empire, and those under Jiang Hongfei's rule The Great Yuan Empire also became more stable.

The second thing is to let the younger generations of the Zhe family, including Zhe Yanwen, Zhe Yanzhi, Zhe Yanshi, Zhe Yanruo, Zhe Yanyan, Zhe Yanye, Zhe Zhichang, and Zhe Zhigang, go to Yan, the capital of the Yuan Dynasty. When serving as officials in Beijing, there will also be women of the right age for general Zhe's family (such as Zhe Meifeng, the daughter of Zhe Xi, Zhe Meifeng, the daughter of Ke Xing, Zhe Yuexiu, the daughter of Ke Ke, Zhe Yueru, the daughter of Zhe Ke, and Zhe Yueru, the daughter of Zhe Ke Yuezhi, Zhe Yuemei, and Zhe Yanshi's daughter Zhe Yanxiu) were all sent to Jiang Hongfei to serve as personal guards.

Xu Huiyan used his patriotic spirit to inspire the soldiers to endure the pain of hunger, thirst, injury, and illness, and persisted in fighting to the death with the remaining soldiers breaking armor.

Desperate, Zhe Keqiu could only agree.

For the sake of Xixia, Li Qianshun and his ministers have already thought about it. No matter what unpleasant words the Yuan Empire's envoys say this time or how provocative they are, they cannot have an attack and must not give the Yuan Empire an excuse to attack Xixia.

actually--

However, the Yuan army waited for work and won a complete victory.

Wu Yong knew that Jiang Hongfei would not leave a Zhe family in Hedong who did not submit to him.

As for the small number of stubborn rebels who fled into the Taihang Mountains, firstly, they no longer pose any threat to the Yuan Empire. Secondly, Jiang Hongfei has sent people to recruit and encircle them. Jiang Hongfei believes that it is only a matter of time to completely eliminate them.

The first thing is to persuade the Jinning Army of the Zhao Song Dynasty, which has been resisting and defending Tian Hu, to come to the rescue of Lin, Fu, and Fengzhou.

After Jiang Hongfei heard about this, he knew that Xu Huiyan would not give in. He named Xu Huiyan "Loyal Minister of the Song Dynasty" and then ordered Xu Huiyan to die. Reassigned to meritorious officers and soldiers in the Yuan army.

After the gold was surrendered, Zhe Keqiu was demoted as a general. Although there is a record of persuading his in-law Xu Huiyan to surrender the gold, his main activity was to obey the Jin's command and obey the Jin's arrangements. Later, Wan Yanchang deposed Liu Yu. Before the incident, Wanyan Gao had promised Zhe Keqiu to replace Liu Yu, but Wanyanchang rejected it. Wanyan Gao was afraid that Zhe Keqiu would hold a heavy soldier's grudge and change his position, so he used a trick to poison Zhe Keqiu to death.

Therefore, Wu Yong used a strategy to divert the tiger away from the mountain, pretending to attack the Jinning army, and transferred Zhe Keqiu and the Zhe family army away from Fuzhou. Then he sent troops to occupy Fuzhou, and captured Zhe Keqiu's son Zhe Yanwen and others. Zhe clan has a large number of people.

no way.

However, everyone knows that Wu Yong does things, and it is impossible for him to believe "one-sided words".

Zhe Keqiu's niece married Xu Huiyan, so Zhe Keqiu was Xu Huiyan's uncle-in-law.

As soon as Han Shizhong said this, the faces of Li Qianshun and his ministers all turned ugly!

good.

Before the war between the Song Dynasty and the Jin Dynasty, Zhe Keqiu was praised and recognized by the Zhao and Song dynasties for his numerous military exploits. He successively served as the prefect of the prefecture, the doctor of Youwu, the governor of Kangzhou, the military supervisor of Taiyuan Road, and the inspection envoy of Linfu Fengguanjie. , is an extremely skilled general.

Han Shizhong heard that Jiang Hongfei was going to send an envoy to Xixia, so he volunteered to be the envoy.

It can be said that Li Qianshun and his ministers showed considerable restraint.

This was resolutely blocked by the Zhejia Army, the Jinning Army and the Jingyuan Army led by Zhong Shidao.

It was with such perseverance that the Jinning Army resisted Tian Hu's westward advance in the middle section.

Han Shizhong and Zhe Yanwen fully understood Jiang Hongfei's holy intention.

Zhe Keqiu went to persuade Xu Huiyan to surrender.

After getting Hedong, the first thing Jiang Hongfei did was to send envoys to his neighbor Xixia to question him.

The key point is that Xixia did provoke the first, and the Yuan Empire used this as an excuse to attack Xixia, which makes sense.

The reason is that Jiang Hongfei actually wants to test Xixia's attitude and give Xixia a clear warning: I, Jiang Hongfei, am not afraid of going to war with you Xixia. Even if we start a war now, there is no problem.

Anyway, Jiang Hongfei is sure of Zhe's achievements and character. Therefore, if he can get the three prefectures of Lin, Fu, and Feng that the Zhe family has maintained for more than 200 years without fighting, it would be Jiang Hongfei's ideal choice. a method.

Although the Yuan army ambushed first, because Zhe Keqiu was very cautious in using his troops, the two sides fought from morning to noon, and the outcome was always equal.

After the Song-Jin War began, Zhe Keqiu actively participated in the main battlefield of the Anti-Jin War and sent aid to the capital and Taiyuan many times. Although he suffered repeated defeats, he was not discouraged and continued to train soldiers and horses and wait for opportunities to counterattack.

And during this process, Jiang Hongfei, who had never been able to control his lower body, inevitably slept with the daughters of Jin's royal family and clan, such as Tian Hu's Concubine Wu (sister of Wu Li), sisters Fan Meiren...

Li Qianshun and his ministers even thought about bribing Han Shizhong and Zhe Yanwen to let them go back and say a few good words for Xixia in front of Jiang Hongfei.

Zhe Keqiu interceded for Xu Huiyan's relatives, and Jiang Hongfei said leisurely: "Being a hero has to pay a price."

Du Bo drew his sword and threatened, but Xu Huiyan responded with his bare chest.

Of course, ideals are just ideals, not reality.

Wu Yong knew that Jiang Hongfei wanted to instigate rebellion and establish a bridgehead in Shaanxi and Xixia during the Zhao and Song Dynasties.

Nowadays, the Yuan Empire has strong troops and horses. Not only has it wiped out all 30,000 of their Xixia elites, they have also destroyed Tian Hu and occupied Hedong, becoming their new neighbor.

After the fall of the Northern Song Dynasty, Zhe Keqiu still led the remaining soldiers to resist tenaciously for two years. In the end, after suffering heavy losses to his troops, Zhao Gou finally chose to drop the gold in order to preserve his strength and make a comeback under the premise that Zhao Gou had given up on the Central Plains.

Zhe Keqiu was a famous general in the Zhao and Song Dynasties. His life in history can be divided into four stages:

Xu Huiyan threw the wine glass and scolded Wu Yong angrily: "How can I drink your wine!", and then cursed at everyone present.

Zhe Yanwen was sent as envoy to Xixia with Han Shizhong.

The Zhe family and Xixia are mortal enemies.

Without saying a word, Xu Huiyan led the main force of 50,000 Jinning troops northward.

Seeing that Li Qianshun and his ministers were indifferent, Han Shizhong rolled his eyes and said: "The queen of your country is the Khitan princess. She has repeatedly instigated you and our two countries to have bad relations and even fight wars. I hope that your country can hand her over to me, Dayuan, for disposal."

Not to mention the Zhe family army that has surrendered to the Yuan Empire.

Xu Huiyan was furious and scolded: "I was favored by the country and died for the country. I deserved my death. How can I bow my knees to you!"

Wu Yong said that as long as the Zhe family is willing to surrender to the Yuan Empire, the three states of Lin, Fu, and Feng will still be governed by the Zhe family. Whatever treatment the Zhao and Song Dynasties give to the Zhe family, the Dayuan Empire will give the Zhe family whatever treatment they receive.

Throughout Zhe Keqiu's life, although he had the stain of surrendering to the Jin Kingdom, it is fair to say that he was worthy of the Zhao and Song dynasties. It was really the person named Zhao who failed to live up to expectations that made Zhe Keqiu unable to keep his family business. , causing the family's century-old prestige, century-old loyalty, and century-old reputation to be destroyed in one fell swoop.

But what Han Shizhong never expected was that although Li Qianshun left the meeting angrily, Li Renjie, the envoy of Zhuantian Pavilion, came to inform Han Shizhong that Xixia agreed to Han Shizhong and Zhe Yanwen taking Yelu Nanxian away, but please keep it quiet...
