As early as when Zhao and Rui were still in the secret residence and had not become emperor.

Through various cases done by Shen Mojing, he learned that Lin'an is simply a paradise for secret spies from various countries.

In this city, secret spies from the Jin Kingdom of Xixia came and went back and forth, and they were having a lot of fun, but no one noticed or cared about it.

Although Zhao Yurui attaches great importance to this matter now, he has no choice but to do anything. The most powerful Shen Langjun who captured secret spies in the world is now impossible to stay in Lin'an and do these things for him.

So when Mo Datong left, another day passed.

When the great inner guard brought back a list of counting the number of steel arm crossbows to Zhao and Rui, he took a look and then he curled the list into a ball and threw it aside.

There are a total of 10,000 steel arm crossbows, and now the remaining one is exactly over 1,000.

Moreover, most of the time, rust and machine parts are caused by poor maintenance and improper storage. They are rags that people are reluctant to steal! If you continue to investigate this matter, it will be a very shameful thing.

The emperor could not investigate any further, so he had to put it aside.

The army under his command was so mud that he could not support the wall. Even Zhao Yurui, who was now in his mind, was helpless! But Zhao Yurui did not expect that there were really people who bought steel arm crossbows among the people, and they were really a perfect businessman.

This guy is Shan Qidong who made money from the war.

Now these steel-arm crossbows are being purchased by Shan Qidong at a bargain price.

Then... still need to ask?

In the future, it will be sold back to the New Song Imperial Army at a sky-high price of more than 100 taels!... At this time, far north of Lin'an, there was still a person who was a hundred times more anxious and uncomfortable than Zhao and Rui.

This person is called Wanyan Chenglin, who is the general of the governor who stayed in Nanjing, Jin.

At this time, he had already received news that a large Mongolian army was attacking the heartland of the Jin Kingdom and was about to arrive at his Nanjing city soon.

When Wanyan Shouxu left the Jin Kingdom, he ordered Wanyan Chenglin to supervise the country and handed over all the domestic affairs to him.

In fact, this means that once Wanyan Shouxu's plan to lead the expedition failed, he would die in Jiangnan.

Then this Wanyan Chenglin is the Great Golden Emperor for granted.

In real history, this young man has indeed been the Great Golden Emperor.

And this guy set a record... Not only has this kind of feat never been before, but it may be difficult to happen in future history.

This record is that Wanyan Chenglin is the shortest person in Chinese history to be emperor.

...Because in 1234, in the original history, Caizhou, the last piece of land in the Jin Dynasty, was captured by the coalition forces of Mongolia and the Song Dynasty.

It was not until the eve of the soon-to-be-breaking of the Caizhou city wall, that Wanyan Shouxu passed the throne of emperor to this Wanyan Chenglin.

At that time, Wanyan Shouxu also said that because he was fat and could not ride a war horse over mountains and rivers, he would definitely not be able to run out.

So he asked Wanyan Chenglin to take over as the Emperor of the Jin Kingdom and asked him to break through the siege to rebuild the Great Jin Kingdom.

So Wanyan Chenglin held the throne ceremony the next day.

However, before the ceremony was completed, the Song and Meng coalition forces had already attacked the city.

Wanyan Chenglin had no choice but to complete the ceremony in a hurry and immediately led his troops to fight.

Afterwards, he died decisively in the chaos... According to historians, Wanyan Chenglin's reign was definitely less than an hour.

This made him the shortest reigning emperor in Chinese history, thus setting an unbreakable record.

Unless there is another quasi-emperor who intends to break this record and commits suicide by wiping his neck at the throne ceremony... otherwise, this record will probably be maintained.

...Wanyan Chenglin was twenty-two years old at this time, and he was extremely smart and wise.

However, he also knew that it would be almost impossible for him to resist the invasion of the Mongolian army.

So Wanyan Chenglin made a very smart decision... He handed over all the city defense affairs to a famous general in the Jin Dynasty - Monk Wanyan Chen! Monk Wanyan Chen was also left in the Jin Dynasty by Wanyan Shouxu this time, which of course has a lot to do with the defeat he encountered during the battle in Shandong not long ago.

After the general suffered losses, he learned from his mistakes and summarized a complete set of tactics used by the Shandong Army when fighting with him.

After that, when he began to gather the troops again with confidence and assembled a "Zodiac Army", he was left behind by Wanyan Shouxu.

The reason for this is not only his previous defeat in the battle, but also related to the composition of the army under his command.

Most of the personnel of the Zhongxiao Army were mainly Han people.

It also includes a large number of Jie, Di, Qiang, and Khitan people.

These were actually scattered soldiers and refugees who were invaded by the Mongolian army and lost their homeland and land.

So they naturally have great hatred with the Mongolians.

What's more, all those who served in the army almost survived the destruction of the country and fled to the Jin Kingdom.

So they are naturally much stronger than ordinary soldiers in terms of force and physical fitness, and at least they are mentally tough enough, which is correct.

Therefore, as soon as this army was established, after a little training and training was made in Monk Chen, it immediately showed its outstanding combat effectiveness.

In fact, in the original history, the final defeat of the Jin Dynasty was as of the "Battle of Sanfeng Mountain".

Before this, the Zhongxiao Army resisted the invasion of the Mongolian army and had been fighting very well.

Not only did they stop the Mongols, but they also recovered part of their territory after several consecutive battles.

He even defeated Shandong Li Quan in history, causing most of Shandong to return to the rule of the Jin Dynasty.

However, now, this Zhongxiao Army has just formed an army. Because they did not show extraordinary combat effectiveness and the structure of the composition is too complicated, there are almost no few Jurchens inside.

So when Wanyan Shouxu led his troops to the imperial army in person, he decisively threw the troops into the Jin Kingdom together with its general Wanyan Monk Chen.

...However, although Monk Wanyan Chen was not valued by Wanyan Shouxu, Wanyan Chenglin knew his talents well.

So when the Mongolian army was about to arrive, Wanyan Chenglin knew that with the broken mountains and rivers and the remaining troops taken away by the emperor, it was absolutely difficult to resist the enemy.

In this way, he decisively re-activated Monk Wanyan Chen and entrusted him with important tasks.

Let him have full authority to deal with the war against the Mongolian army.

...And at this time, Monk Wanyan Chen did not disappoint Wanyan Chenglin's hope.

When this young general took office, he made drastic moves to change the city defense of Nanjing, the Jin Dynasty, beyond recognition!
