Back to the Song Dynasty as a tyrant

Zhao Ning said: "It's my luck to have you, the country's luck, and you don't have to worry about military expenses. I will continue to support you."

Everyone stood up and said: "The officials are sages, and the ministers will do their best."

"My dear fellows, do it boldly. I will bear all the consequences for you."

Chapter 94

After this matter was arranged, Li Gang also cleaned up and rushed to Cangzhou to preside over the overall situation.

The person who promised him before would give him 100 million guan to appease him first, and Zhao Ning also arranged a schedule, dispatching a team from Zhang Shuye to go to Cangzhou with him.

Subsequent military spending will naturally continue to be exported.

After discussing the strategy, Zong Ze also rushed to the front line. This time the pressure on the center line was the greatest.

After all, the capital is behind, and the plains of Yimapingchuan in Hebei, Cizhou, and Daming Mansion are all in the plains. It is the most difficult to fight against the cavalry of the Kingdom of Jin.

On the fifth day of June, Huining Mansion went to the capital.

King Wanyan Wu Qimai of the Kingdom of Jin summoned the heroes who went south to attack the Song Dynasty last year.

Wanyan Wu begged for a big banquet.

"Come on, gentlemen, I will offer you a cup once again after defeating the Song Dynasty with a great victory."

After finishing speaking, Wanyan Wu Qimai drank the wine in his glass in one gulp.

The one who drank first was Wanyan Zonghan, who contributed the most this time. He drank the wine in one gulp, and the others drank.

"Your Majesty, this time Zong Han captured Taiyuan, attacked Bianjing, and captured hundreds of thousands of Han people, which greatly enriched the strength of our dynasty. Only those who have merit will be rewarded heavily, so that those who are capable can contribute their strength."

The person who spoke was a middle-aged man in his early forties, with a thin face, but his outline was resolute and tough.

Especially those eyes, as sharp as a falcon.

The tone of this person's speech seemed to be that he was not asking Jindi Wanyan Wu to beg for a purchase, but was negotiating with him on an equal footing.

He just sat there, giving people a full sense of oppression.

On the contrary, Jindi Wanyan Wu was begging for money, and his body was getting fat. Compared with him, he seemed much more friendly.

This person is the Crown Prince Wan Ban Bo Ji Lie Wan Yan Gao.

Jin Guochaotang is the number one hardliner against the Song Dynasty and the leader of the Song Dynasty Sect.

He is the same mother and brother of Wanyan Aguda.

Jin Guochaotang is a Bojilie system, and Banbojilie is equivalent to the position of prime minister, with one person under ten thousand people.

In addition, he is the Crown Prince, that is, the future emperor of the Kingdom of Jin, and his status is extremely prominent. Even the emperor of the Kingdom of Jin, Wanyan Wu Qimai, is afraid of him.

In the past two times when the Jin army went south to destroy the Song Dynasty, it was Wan Yangao who promoted it.

Wanyan Wu Qimai smiled and said: "Fan Banbo Jilie is right. Our dynasty is different from the Song Dynasty. In our dynasty, those who make merit will be rewarded!"

"Zong Han!"

"Chen is here!"

"I will give you 100 million taels of silver. You can take half of the Han people you captured from the Song Dynasty this time."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Wan Yangao continued: "Your Majesty, the three towns of the Song Dynasty have been lost, and almost all the famous generals of the Song Dynasty were killed. Right now, they are like a piece of meat on a chopping board. If it hadn't been for too long, Zong Han might have broken through the city of Bianjing. I thought it was just money Rewards from people and people are not enough to convince everyone."

"Then what's your suggestion for Ban Bo Ji Lie?"

Wan Yangao said: "It's better to give the iron certificate of Dan Shu and order Zong Han to open the Marshal's Mansion in Taiyuan, so as to plot the Central Plains again and prepare for His Majesty's unification of the world."

Wanyan Wu Qimai was naturally unwilling to do so, but he couldn't refute Wanyan Gao's request.

Wanyan Zonghan made great contributions. Most of Hedong and important state capitals in Hebei were taken down by Zonghan, which caused the Song Dynasty to lose almost all the defense lines in the north.

Rewarding this kind of credit with money and people is really not convincing for a country like the Jin Kingdom where the strong are respected.

Wanyan Wu is begging for money and determined to unify the world. This is the time to use up Yan Zonghan, and there can be no confrontation.

Wanyan Wu begged to buy a glance around, Wanyan Zongwang came out and said, "Your Majesty, I have a message."

"You can say it anyway."

"I wonder if Your Majesty has heard of the article "On the Early Stage of the Song and Jin Wars" written by Zhao Guanjia?"

As soon as Wanyan Zongwang said this, the surrounding atmosphere suddenly changed.

"Oh? I've never heard of it."

"That minister happens to have a copy here." Wanyan Zongwang took out Zhao Ning's article and submitted it.

Wanyan Wu Qimai has learned Chinese, so it is not difficult to read Zhao Ning's article.

There was a dead silence all around.

Wanyan Gao looked at Wanyan Zonghan with a questioning look, Zonghan remained silent.

After Wanyan Wu begged to buy it, his expression changed.

He handed this article to Wan Yangao, Wan Yangao said with a smile: "That cowardly official Zhao, what high opinion can he have, but use those pitiful morals to condemn us, I don't care if I don't read such an article. "

He said so, but started reading anyway.

After reading it, he laughed loudly: "I have seen this kind of Zhuge Liang's behavior after the event, and the Zhao officials dare to show their shame."

"Familiar with Banbo, this article was written by Zhao Guanjia in December."

"What!" The smile on Wanyan Gao's face froze.

His face began to darken, and then became gloomy. He stared straight at Wanyan Zongwang and said, "Zongwang, you said this article was written in December?"

"Yes."

"When was your biggest siege?"

"December [-]th."

"Then this article was written before you attacked the city?"

"Yes."

The scene fell into a dead silence.

Wanyan Zonghan's expression was livid.

At this time, Shi Li'ai came out to smooth things over, he said: "Your Majesty, I have a message."

"Please tell me."

"What the official Zhao wrote and what the Marshal did is actually not a coincidence."

"How do you say that?"

"We retreated because of the long-term exhaustion of the army. We supported Zhang Bangchang, and naturally stabilized the situation in the east of the Taiyuan Prefecture, but this does not mean that those behind Zhao Guan's house are all correct. I think , This is just thrown out by Zhao Guan’s family to confuse us.”

Wan Yangao answered immediately, and he said: "Our army retreated after a long battle and could not conquer Bianjing, and then supported Chu in the east of the river after the retreat. These are not difficult to speculate. He just used simple speculation first to confuse Let us believe that his subsequent speculations are also true, so as to disturb us and prevent us from using all our strength against Song again."

Wanyan Zonghan suddenly smiled and said: "Your Majesty, in fact, I did it deliberately to support Zhang Bangchang, just to let Zhao Guanjia think that his own articles have already affected us, so that we can relax our vigilance."

Wanyan Wu Qimai burst into laughter immediately: "Zonghan is worthy of being the No. 1 military strategy of our dynasty. The first emperor had Zonghan, which made our Jin Kingdom destroy Liao and Song Dynasty."

He didn't brag about Wanyan Zonghan in these words. In terms of credit, no one can compare with Wanyan Zonghan except Wanyan Aguda himself.

Wan Yangao took advantage of the situation and immediately said: "Your Majesty, if this is the case, I will give you a big reward!"

Wanyan Wu begged for money and said, "Okay! Zong Han!"

"Chen is here!"

"I will give you the iron certificate of Dan Shu to open the Marshal's Mansion in Taiyuan to seek the world. Except for me and Banbo, no one is allowed to interfere with the affairs of the Marshal's Mansion. I also allow you to recruit counselors and generals by yourself. I'm going to use it."

"Your Majesty, thank you for your grace!"

Is this reward too much?

Not too much!

This is how Wanyan Zonghan in history was rewarded.

In this kind of reward, there are both Wanyan Wu's helplessness in begging and his political wisdom.

The Kingdom of Jin and the Song Dynasty have completely different power structures.

Ming Banbo is very powerful, has his own officials, has his own financial revenue, people, land, and army.

This kind of power allocation is equivalent to the Spring and Autumn and Warring States Period in the Central Plains, having its own fiefdom, and the fiefdom had its own finances and army.

It is impossible for Wanyan Wu not to be afraid of begging.

Wanyan Zonghan said: "Your Majesty, wait for the minister to return to the teacher to rectify this time. In November, the army can go south again and destroy the Song Dynasty in one fell swoop!"

Chapter 95 My Land Reform

Wanyan Zonghan said that, but in fact, he still has a compulsion in his heart.

Now is the time for the Kingdom of Jin to expand its territory, and the commanders and generals in the army have become rebellious as their military achievements continue to rise.

Contradictions among the factions in the court have begun to appear.

If you stop going south now, stop using troops against the Song Dynasty.

The contradictions in the Kingdom of Jin will immediately shift from external to internal.

If this is the case, internal conflicts will inevitably explode in a short period of time, making it difficult to reconcile.

This is what Wanyan Wu Qimai doesn't want to see.

Just like the U.S. imperialists, they can only keep using foreign troops. Once they stop, the interests of various factions in the military will be damaged, and internal conflicts will inevitably detonate in a short time.

This is politics.

On the sixth day of June, Zhao Ning called Yue Fei and Han Shizhong over early in the morning and had breakfast together.

The two of them were really flattered to have breakfast with the emperor.

Although he didn't know why the emperor valued him so much, he was very moved.

"Pengju."

"The minister is here."

"I originally wanted to keep you in the Dianqian Division, but the situation in Hebei is critical now, and I hope you will go to the front line to make contributions."

"Your Majesty is merciful, and I feel grateful."

"I have discussed with Zong Ze and Zhang Shuye that people's lives in Hebei are very difficult right now, bandits are everywhere, and bandits are causing harm to the people. I hope you can lead an army to suppress the rebels from all walks of life."

"Your Majesty will live up to His Majesty's great trust."

Yes, Hebei and Hedong are now devastated. Zongze must control the overall situation and rectify the defense line.

The Jin Army hadn't gone south yet, so Yue Fei couldn't be idle, let's go practice, just as rebels are everywhere in Hebei, wouldn't it be great for Yue Fei to fight monsters and upgrade.

"Good minister."

Han Shizhong said: "The minister is here."

"You have made many meritorious deeds in Shaanxi, captured Fangla, and rejected the Jin army. I have heard about it. I am not afraid to tell you that I came to you because I want to reuse you."

Han Shizhong immediately said: "Your Majesty, please order, I will never give up!"

"You go to Hebei East Road. Li Gang needs your support. I will give you ten thousand soldiers."

"The minister leads the decree to thank you!"

Not long after, Wang Huaiji brought wine and poured it.

Zhao Ning picked it up and said: "This trip must be extremely dangerous, and the road ahead is full of thorns. You and my monarch and ministers will drink together. I will see you off."

After finishing speaking, Zhao Ning drank the wine.

Yue Fei and Han Shizhong also drank.

"The country's military virtues have been abolished for a long time, and I have the heart to revive them. I hope you two will help me."

The two knelt on the ground and said: "The ministers are willing to go through fire and water for His Majesty."

"Okay, okay." Zhao Ning helped the two of them up.

Yue Fei and Han Shizhong also set out on the road.
