Chapter 410 The Emperor's Will

"Han'er is talking about Hu'er, but scolds Han people at the top of the city!"

This is a poem by Sikong Tu, a poet of the late Tang Dynasty. It is called "Thoughts of Hehuang", which tells that in the late Tang Dynasty, the land of Hehuang fell into the hands of Tubo.

After many years, the local people have long forgotten their local accent and become lackeys of the Hu people, which is sad and annoying!

These two lines of poetry mean Yan Yun!

More than a hundred years of division have caused irreparable cracks.

When Emperor Taizong made an expedition in the north, it was Yan Yun's Han people who stood on the side of the Liao gangs that defeated the Song Dynasty's army. Zhao Zhen had always been unable to understand that as both Han people, even if they did not help each other, the Song Dynasty would not be defeated.

Now he finally understood, Wang Xiang gave him the answer!

Wang Yong escaped by luck and was wandering in the Liao Kingdom. He was devoted to the Song Dynasty. His son could still be infatuated with his hometown... But when his grandson grew up with the Khitans, his customs, lifestyle, education and rules had completely destroyed the hearts of the Han family.

Even if they know they are Han people, they won't care too much.

It was more than a hundred years since Taizong's Northern Expedition. It was no longer three generations, but four generations, five generations, six generations... Yanyun has no Han people anymore!

Zhao Zhen was very angry. If he were in the capital, or ten years ago, he might have completely dispelled the idea of ​​regaining Yan Yun.

But at this moment, standing on the land of Hebei, there were all the passionate athletes of the Song Dynasty, and tens of thousands of forwards had entered Yanyun. Zhao Zhen also became a complete fighter. He was unwilling to accept that as an emperor, the one with the most powerful and capable of the Song Dynasty!

He will never allow the tragedy to continue. He wants to turn the world around and turn the tide!!

"Transfer my will and immediately order Zhe Jimin to lead his troops to attack the Xijing of Liao Kingdom, forcing Yelu Ren to return to the rescue first. Remember, don't be in love with the war, just hold Yelu Renxian away. How to fight, Zhe Jimin has the final say."

The last sentence is very critical. Zhao Zhen has read it clearly for a long time and cannot make any more trouble for civil servants.

"The second decree is passed on, ordering Yang Huaiyu and Di Yong to lead 30,000 imperial guards to immediately go north to Daming Mansion and be ready to fight against the Liao soldiers at any time."

Zhao Zhen said to Fu Bi again: "I sent an order to Bao Zheng, the envoy of the Three Divisions, and asked him to prepare 2 million shi of military rations immediately, mobilize 300,000 civilians, and prepare for the war with all their might! Then he told Jiyin County Prince Zhao Zongjing that in the name of the Royal Bank, he issued 35 million qian war bonds. I took the example and allocated 1.8 million qian from the treasury to purchase bonds."

In fact, how to fight this battle, Wang Ning'an had already drawn up many strategies, such as marching towards Yanyun by protecting the merchants and the people. This is the most conservative and more radical one, which is to go to war directly with the Liao Kingdom.

This time, Zhao Zhen bet on all his chips. In addition to not formally declaring war, it can be said that he has used all his energy to eat. Even if he wins, the Song Dynasty will be damaged and suffer a lot of losses.

Fu Bi hesitated, "Your Majesty, is it..."

"No!"

Zhao Zhen flatly denied, "My rich man, I know what I am doing. Di Aiqing and Wang Aiqing are the vanguards, I and Lao General Wang are the central army, and Di Yong and Yang Huaiyu and others. I believe in my soldiers and believe in my billions of people in the Song Dynasty. This battle must be fought and must be won!"

Zhao Zhen took a deep breath, "The Fu Xianggong and Fan Aiqing and others presided over the Qingli New Policy, which was once a vast ocean. I know that my beloved is not a stalwart, nor does I not understand the overall situation... I hope my beloved can do my best to recover the old land of Yanyun for me and the world. On the day of success, there will be a record of history for thousands of years."

Fu Bi's whole body was shocked violently. He was not excited, but fear.

That's right, Zhao Zhen didn't blame him, but every sentence was full of cleverness and clearly warned him that you dare to ignore the overall situation, pull the back and cause trouble. At that time, history will be revealed and you will be a slander!

I really didn't expect that I had already reached this point in the emperor's heart... Your Majesty, you can't help but underestimate the Fuyan Kingdom. How could I hesitate if I could recover Yan Yun!

Compared with Han Qi, Fu Bi is obviously much more moral, and it is really hard not to be infected by the enthusiasm of the people in Hebei.

All the ordnance workshops are rushing to work day and night, and various raw materials are given priority. Bow and archery clubs in various places organize young people to join the army. The troops in Hebei have expanded to 300,000. Although there are only 100,000 soldiers who can fight, they are still fully qualified to transport supplies, strengthen cities, and repair roads.

What surprised Fu Bi the most was that Liuyi Academy, although the headquarters moved to the capital, there were still thousands of students in Cangzhou, and one of the members of the Martial Arts Academy was not bad. They held a graduation exam two months in advance. They all joined the army without any hesitation.

Those businessmen who were most despised by Fu Bi also showed an unusual side at this moment.

When the war bonds were launched, they rushed to buy them, without any politeness.

If it is greedy for profit, it would be fine. Many small businessmen who sold bonds and simply tore them up in the street. They are contributing military expenses to the court!

Everything may be humble, or it may be irrelevant... But Fu Bi saw a completely different world, and no one was numb, and they were all contributing their own strength.

A person is very humble, but millions of people together are not humble. Their power is like a storm.

And Fu Bi was in the middle of the waves, and he was completely helpless.

Fu Bi took out the super administrative ability of the imperial prime minister, mobilized civilians, resettled the families of Liao, raised military funds and rations, organized transportation, and collected livestock... Every work was arranged in an orderly manner.

Until this moment, all the war machines in the Song Dynasty were running at high speed from top to bottom. Although they were still a little immature and thin, Wang Ning'an had been tossing for nearly ten years, and the Song Dynasty had been peaceful for another hundred years, and was extremely rich.

This huge force finally mobilized, like a giant beast with his head raised and hissing, shaking the world!

...

"Your Majesty finally made up his mind that this battle will be a big deal!"

Wang Ning'an looked at the snowflakes flying outside and sighed secretly. When his men entered Youzhou, they encountered heavy snow. Now it is not as good as in later generations. The snow falls hard and the wind blows wildly. Even if thousands of men encounter a blizzard, they will be unable to move forward.

The sudden heavy snow forced the battle to stop.

Yelu Hongji's main force has entered Tanzhou and is being renovated.

Yelu Ren first attacked Juyongguan but failed, so he took a detour and prepared to attack Changping.

Changping is the gateway to the northwest of the capital. If it is lost, the two troops of Yelu Hongji and Yelu Renxian will merge. The 200,000 army will be a torrent that no one can stop!

"Ship Di, it seems that the key is Changping!"

Facing an exquisitely crafted sand table, Wang Ning'an said calmly, "He really put in the effort to the Liao Kingdom, and took the sand table in front of him, a village, a well, and a street, all of which were clearly clear and clear."

When Chongyuan and his son saw it, they all went crazy.

Be careful!

Wang Ning'an, you are really trying hard!

No matter what the two of them thought, Di Qing pondered: "It is true that we should defeat Yelu Renxian first and stabilize the wings before we can let go of Yelu Hongji, and we will not have much time left for us."

Di Qing and Wang Ning'an discussed it and decided to send Yang Wenguang to lead the troops, and arranged Liu Yu and Murong Qingchen as his deputy, and Zhang Dun as the army.

"That... dad!"

Wang Ning'an hesitated. Yang Wenguang was injured when he was in Lingnan. He had just recovered in the past few years. He was really sorry for him to fight against the wind and snow. After all, his father-in-law is not his own father. If Wang Liangjing had nothing to say, what if Yang Wenguang made mistakes, how could he explain to his wife?

But if Yang Wenguang is not sent, who else can go?

The dynasty of the Song Dynasty was too serious. He sent Liu Yu and Murong Qingchen over, hoping that they could protect their father-in-law and learn some skills from their father-in-law, grow quickly, and fill the vacancy quickly.

"Boy, if you ask me to lead the troops, you just feel sorry for me!" Yang Wenguang sighed, "As a descendant of the Yang family, fighting for Yan Yun is the destiny of the ancestors! If it falls behind someone else, it's really time to wipe your neck!"

Yang Wenguang said, flew onto a white horse, and smiled casually, "Don't worry, I won't return!"

Yang Wenguang raised the gun in his hand, then the army headed north and headed straight for Changping.

There were 15,000 infantry dispatched this time, and Chongyuan also sent 10,000 people and 5,000 Jingsai Iron Cavalry, led by Di Qing himself, detoured from the other route to Juyong Pass to intercept Yelu Renxian's retreat.

When they really went to the battle, Chongyuan and his son were even more surprised.

have a look.

Check it out quickly!

What tricks did Song Jun play?

Two bamboo boards were tied to their feet, holding the cane in both hands, and slid forward with force, easily. Facing the snow of two feet thick, it was almost the same as the plain.

They rode their horses, but they were not as fast as the Song army.

Not only are there snowboards, but also sleds. No wonder they brought tens of thousands of dogs when they entered Youzhou. Chongyuan thought that Song Jun liked to eat dog meat!

But they actually used dogs to transport supplies.

It’s true that on the snow, it’s like an arrow from a string. Chongyuan and his son saw it and their chins fell.

If you are not prepared, can you get these equipment?

Wang Ning'an, your idea of ​​Yan Yun is probably not a day or two, or even a year or two!

It's really hard for you. I'll run over and say what peace is, you shameless!

Chongyuan gritted his teeth, and suddenly he smiled again. Anyway, let him and Yelu Hongji's son bite. It would be better if they were all dead!"

...

The army moved forward, getting closer and closer to Changping. Liu Yu led 100 cavalry to explore the way forward. He suddenly found several small black dots in the distance, stopped on the hills, and then rushed towards them.

"It's the Liao bandit!"

Liu Yu gritted his teeth. Instead of speaking, he raised the saber in his hand. His subordinates quickly divided into two teams, taking the shape of a fan, and attacked the Liao soldiers without hesitation.

The battle between Song and Liao dynasties begins here!
Chapter completed!
