Chapter 23 Jinren, go to Hebei to find King Yun!

"I am willing to obey the king's order!"

Several martial artists were very straightforward and expressed their obedience to the order in unison. Now is not the chaotic period after the fall of Bianliang. After the two emperors hunted north, the Song Dynasty still had the reputation of the Song Dynasty. Therefore, Zhao Kai, one of the strong competitors to the throne of the Song Dynasty, certainly had enough prestige to suppress the seven martial artists including Huang Wuji, Xiang Ke, He Guan, He Ji, He Yu, Liu Qi, and Ma Wang. Especially Chen Ji, Qin Hui, two civil servants who were among the first-class military officials, fully supported Zhao Kai. How could they dare to express different opinions?

As for Wang Xiaode and Bai Side, the two eunuchs were even allowed to be tricked by Zhao Kai.

Seeing the "Seven Generals", "Two Civil Officials" and "Two Eunuchs" below, they all obeyed their orders. They had just had a sleep, and now Zhao Kai was a little fluttering... The person he chose that day was just good!

"Very good!" Zhao Kai looked at his eleven younger brothers, turned his head to look at his brother Zhao Zhi, as well as the girl Zhao Duofu, his wife Zhu Fengying and his concubine Pan Cailian, and also brought their expressions to their eyes. Zhao Zhi looked like he was about to be arrested and killed by Zhao Ji's people!

Zhao Duofu looked at him with a suspicion, probably wondering who Yue Fei was?

Zhu Fengying's eyebrows were twisted into a ball, and her little mouth was pouting, as if she was very dissatisfied with Zhao Kai's behavior - she didn't usurp the throne and became an official, and she actually went out of the city to resist the Jin Dynasty!

Pan Cailian looked at Zhao Kai with affectionateness, and it seemed that she supported Zhao Kai unconditionally.

"Since you are all in the same heart as Gu Wang, Gu Wang will reorganize more than 2,400 troops and horses under his subordinates here in Chenqiaoyi!" Zhao Kai paused word by word and slowly expressed his thoughts, "Although Gu Wang only has more than 2,400 troops, there are four origins, one is the Imperial City Office; the second is the Shengjie Army; the third is the Third Yajun Army; and the fourth is the wing soldiers of Tiansijian. The origins are different, and their wing soldiers are different. Some are personal officials, some are imperial guards, some are imperial guards, some are imperial guards, and some are wing soldiers. Therefore, the original treatment is different, with high and low. This is not conducive to unity and inconvenient command.

So the Gu Wang decided to disperse more than 2,400 troops from Chenqiaoyi and mix them into Tiance Army directly under the Gu Wang!"

Zhao Kai brought out the concept of the Song version of Li Shimin again!

Because he had discovered that many people were quite good at this - probably because they thought the Emperor of the Zhao family was too cowardly, so they dreamed of having an official family that was as good as Li Shimin?

Zhao Kai paused and said, "In the future, there will be no personal officials under the command of the Guwang, the royal officer, the imperial guards, and the wing soldiers, only the Tiance Guards! Those who have no officials among the Tiance Guards will be divided into Tiance Knights, the Tiance Guards, the cavalry, and the horse soldiers. Anyone who can and is good at fighting will be subordinate to the Tiance Knights. The infantry and the horse soldiers will be doubled. Among them, the money and food obtained by the Tiance Knights are doubled compared with the horse soldiers of the imperial guards, and the money and food of the Tiance soldiers will be doubled compared with the imperial guards!

In addition, the Lone King will also select 300 guards from the former Tiance Guards who were the marriage officer, and will be treated like a knight.

The 2400 Tiance Guards will be divided into eight generals, including 5 cavalry generals, 1 infantry general, 1 Ma Yi general, and 1 guard general. The cavalry general, infantry general, Ma Yi general, and guard general have 300 guards. After the orphan king takes over the Hebei army and the prefectures and counties, it will gradually increase to 3,000 people."

According to the "Article of War" of the Song Dynasty, there is no fixed number of soldiers of a general, one or two thousand or two, and four or five thousand more. And 300 people are organized into one general, which is obviously a bit of a bragging. However, considering that Zhao Kai will soon be in charge of Hebei's troops, he should be able to find enough soldiers to fill in the vacant organization, so this cow may really be able to achieve it.

Zhao Kai dismantled the soldiers of one general in his hand into eight generals, then broke up the original system and reorganized them, and then handed them over to the eight commanders. At the same time, he also added military pay to his subordinates, of course, in order to strengthen control of his direct armed forces.

These methods look ordinary, but they are very real, and they are what Zhao Kai can do at present.

The 2,400 people gathered in Chenqiaoyi are his old capital. If he cannot grasp it firmly, all his ambitions will be empty.

So Zhao Kai couldn't wait to reach Hebei at all. As soon as he left Kaifeng Prefecture, he carried out a reorganization of his army at Chenqiao Post.

Zhao Kai then began to assign officials to his subordinates, "The chief generals of the five cavalry generals will be Xiang Ke, Huang Wuji, He Ji, He Yu, and Liu Qi. The chief generals of one infantry general will be He Laojun. The generals of Ma Yi are presided over by Ma Wang. The chief generals of the orphan king will be the chief general."

He paused, looked at the eight people who had stood up and prepared to salute and accept the order with a bright look, and nodded and said, "Everyone, I can only give you one general of 300 people now, but when I arrive in Hebei in the future, you will sooner or later be the commander, commander, commander, and even the prefect of one state and one prefecture!"

He paused and continued to draw a big cake for his subordinates, "There are some battles in the Song and Jin wars. With the strength of the Jin thieves and the weak of our dynasty, there was no way to fight a peaceful and prosperous era without decades of war. Therefore, those in the court who want to use 3 million-year-old soldiers to buy a peace are really delusions."

Speaking of this, Zhao Kai suddenly showed a bright smile, "There are some in chaos in the world, and some of our monarchs and ministers are easy to fight... You are still afraid that you will not be able to win a founding country. Isn't it a hero of Zhongxing?"

When everyone heard this, they looked at Zhao Kai with an excited and smug expression, and they were speechless. Is this Song Dynasty belonging to your family? Why are you still so happy when the world is in chaos?

......

Tokyo City, Gen Yue.

Because Zhao Kai suddenly stayed at Chenqiaoyi and stopped moving, his father, Zhao Ji, the official of the Song Dynasty, was a little restless. He couldn't eat or sleep well, and even the palace was not in the mood to live. On the second day of the first lunar month of the eighth year of Xuanhe, he simply moved to Gen Yue, which was like a fairyland on earth, to live.

However, after arriving at Genyue, Zhao Ji was still in a state of uneasy, hoping that Zhao Kai and the Jin people would succeed in negotiations. He thought that Zhao Kai was stationed in Chen Qiaoyi to negotiate with the Jin people. He was so timid, of course he hoped that Zhao Kai could beg for mercy successfully.

On the other side, he couldn't bear to give up his throne - the throne is a good throne, but the bad one is just the Jin people sending troops to attack him, the emperor. If the Jin people don't come, then being an emperor would be much happier than being the Supreme Emperor. But when he thought that Zhao Kai successfully sold his country and begged for mercy, he would definitely rely on the support of the Jin people to return to Kaifeng Mansion to force the palace, and he felt extremely depressed.

Early in the morning on the fourth day of the first lunar month, Zhao Ji, who had not fallen asleep all night, had just finished washing up and used a little breakfast randomly. Before he could send an order to summon the prime minister and important officials to Gen Yue to discuss matters, someone from the left and right came to report - Cai You, the head of the Privy Council, and Tong Guan, the Tong of the Privy Council, asked for a meeting and reported the important matters.

"Main thing?" Zhao Ji immediately showed a complicated expression, "Hurry, hurry up and announce!"

Cai You and Tong Guan were immediately taken to the study outside Zhao Ji's bedroom by the eunuch. Seeing the two of them coming in, Zhao Ji didn't wait for them to salute and asked, "How? Is there news about the peace talks?"

"No," Cai You said, "His highness of Prince Yun's troops left Chenqiaoyi last night!"

"Leave?" Zhao Ji's breathing became rapid, "Come to Kaifeng Prefecture?"

"No," said Tong Guan, "If you go to Huazhou, you will probably go directly through Huazhou and enter the ground of Kaide Prefecture."

"Is this... going to Hebei?" Zhao Ji thought for a while, "Where is the Jin people? Where has the Jin people's army gone?"

"The vanguard troops of the Jin people have arrived in Xiangzhou," Tong Guan replied, "but they did not attack Xiangzhou City, but went to the Amway Army, and they would probably drive to the Yellow River soon..."

"What? The talk has collapsed?" Zhao Ji immediately became panicked.

Tong Guan shook his head, "Maybe there was no talk at all..."

"Then what was he doing when he stayed in Chenqiao Post for three or four days?" Zhao Ji was anxious, "Tong Guan! You immediately send Zhao Liangsi to the Jin people's military camp and tell them that I have ordered Prince Yun to fully handle the peace talks and marriage matters, and also gave Prince Yun 3.3 million wealth and a prince... Let them go to Prince Yun to negotiate!
