Even if the Song Army was severely damaged, it could not quickly defeat the Song Army.
A blow without a rout is not a real blow.
"Your Highness, forgive me, I will fight again tomorrow!"
"There is no time. The marshal has already withdrawn to the north. If we stay in Daming Mansion for a long time, once the Kaifeng Song Army goes north, we will face several times the enemy!"
Once it entered May, the weather in the Central Plains was extremely hot, and the Jurchens could not bear it.
The most important thing is that Jurchen will also go back to the northeast to plow the fields.
The Jurchens are fishing and hunting, not pure nomads, and have a lot of arable land.
The Meng'an Mouke system is actually a combination of military and agricultural.
If you don't go back, some land will be deserted.
Moreover, this time when I go back, Jin Guochaotang will award rewards for meritorious deeds, so what should I do if I miss it when I go back late?
Chapter 68 The situation is straightening out step by step, I'm going to start beheading people
In fact, in the orthodox history, Zong Ze fought against Wan Yan Wu Shu.
It was the second year of Jianyan, that is, the beginning of the second year of Jingkang's shame, the Jin army was overwhelming and divided into several groups.
The goal of Wanyan Wushu is the city of Tokyo, and at this time, Zongze is staying behind in Tokyo.
Wanyan Wushu attacked many times, but was unable to conquer Zongze's Yellow River defense line, so it can be said that he returned in vain.
At this time, the generals of the Western Army in Daming City were not incapable of fighting.
For example, Han Shizhong and Zhang Jun have victories against Jinren in history.
Even Liu Guangshi, who is also relatively shameless, has it.
Although the military administration of the Song Dynasty was bad, the Western Army fought against Xixia for 100 years and almost wiped out the country. If it weren't for the sudden rise of the Jin Kingdom, Xixia might really be gone.
No matter how many bad habits these people have, they have killed people on the battlefield all year round.
So why are they playing so badly now?
the reason is simple.
Scared of being beaten!
In the first year of Jingkang, not only the western army, but also the three towns in the north were swept away, the [-] troops in the planting division were wiped out, and Yao Gu's tens of thousands of troops were also wiped out.
Taiyuan City was killed and turned into an empty city.
Nearly half of the military power of the entire Song Dynasty was quickly destroyed.
Zhong Shidao died of illness, Zhong Shizhong died in battle, Yao Gu died in battle, Zhe Keqiu surrendered to the enemy, and the three great generals who had been passed down for a hundred years in the Song Dynasty fell.
The enemy besieged the capital easily, and everyone was beaten and forced.
I haven't recovered yet, and I lack a strong backbone.
When the Turkic army marched all the way south, the whole country of the newly established Tang Dynasty was shocked. Prince Li Jiancheng and Emperor Li Yuan both wanted to move the capital to Xiangyang. If Li Shimin hadn't stood up and suppressed it, Datang might have become a southern regime after the founding of the country.
Now the generals of the Western Army in Daming City are in this state. They are afraid of being beaten, and they lack the backbone.
In fact, in history, Zhao Gouneng moved from Daming Mansion to Dongping Mansion and turned a blind eye to the siege of Tokyo, which was a collective default behavior.
At this time, Zhao Gou looked outside eagerly, hoping to see Zong Ze's army.
Until April 25th, Wanyan Wushu spent three days with Zongze, seeing that Zongzebu looked like an unbeatable Xiaoqiang, forget it, why don't I go back!
Just when people in the prefectures and counties of Daming Prefecture wanted to surrender one after another, Wanyan Wushu waved his hand: Withdraw!
In the afternoon, the news of Wanyan Wushu's withdrawal reached Wanyan Yinshuke.
After Wanyan Yinshu finished watching Yan Wushu and withdrew, he waved his hand: withdraw troops.
It was originally to cover the withdrawal of large troops, so there is no need to die here.
In the evening, Zhao Gou heard the news that the Jin army had withdrawn, and he was overjoyed: "Quick! Send someone to verify it!"
The people in Daming City were overjoyed when they learned that the Jin army had retreated.
At this time, Zong Ze's handsome camp.
"Report! Marshal, the spies report back, the gold thief has retreated!"
Zong Ze said calmly, "It took a while longer than I expected."
Liu Hao was overjoyed immediately: "That's great!"
Liu Hao heaved a sigh of relief. If the Jinren didn't leave, their rations would run out.
According to the marching speed of the Jin army, they evacuated from outside Tokyo, and by now, they should have reached Taiyuan City.
Wanyan Wushu's withdrawal can be said to be very fast, like a whirlwind, from Daming to the north, traveling at lightning speed, afraid of falling behind.
The same is true for Wanyan Yinshu.
And those who are still planning to surrender to the Jin army one after another because of the siege of Tokyo, look at it in a blink of an eye, damn it!What about people?
Early in the morning on April 26, Zong Ze withdrew his camp to the west.
Liu Hao said, "Marshal, aren't we going to Daming City?"
"No, the daimyo crisis has been resolved, we quickly returned to Cizhou, Jin Jun just retreated, people's hearts are still undecided, there are many things waiting for us there."
"If the Jin army really retreats, shouldn't we go back to the capital first?"
"Since the Jin army has retreated, the siege of the capital has been lifted, and the officials are safe, I should immediately return to Cizhou to preside over the overall situation."
Liu Hao sighed and said: "Zong Shuai, you are the first to serve as king this time, but you don't want to go to the capital to ask for credit. I admire your heart."
"In the face of a national crisis, no matter how great the credit is, so what?"
Daming City, Marshal's Mansion.
Huang Qianshan said: "The Jin army must have been scared off by the generalissimo's heroism!"
Wang Boyan said: "Generalissimo, we are still not sure whether the Jin army has really withdrawn its troops. It may be to lure us out on purpose."
Zhao Gou said, "Then what should we do now?"
Wang Boyan said: "Send people to the Huazhou area to find out the news."
Just when the situation outside has undergone major changes, the Marshal's Mansion of the Daming Mansion is still cautious.
In Daming City, a small officer said with emotion: "The Jin army must have really retreated!"
The person next to him said: "Han Liangchen, what nonsense are you talking about again, no one is sure now!"
"Why did the Jin people suddenly come to besiege Daming City? There is something strange about it. The weather is about to heat up. Jin people don't like heat. If you are the chief general and besiege Daming City for several days, will you suddenly withdraw your troops?"
"I... I don't know, this question is something we can think about."
"Don't forget, Jin people also have to eat, and they don't have much food, and there are more and more volunteers in Hebei."
"Han Shizhong, you are just a Wu Jielang! Stop talking nonsense!"
Takeshiro is the No.30 eighth rank among the military officers.
April 27, Tokyo City, noon.
The envoy from Tongguan came back: "Officials, the army and horses of the towns in Shaanxi have been told to retreat to their respective routes, and the economic envoys have arrived in the capital."
What he was talking about was King Qin's army who was besieged by Wanyan Lou's family outside Tongguan, and they were people from all walks of life in Shaanxi.
There are 10,000+ troops in total.
Wanyan Loushi also retreated with Wanyan Zonghan.
That being the case, why did King Qin's army retreat to all the roads in Shaanxi?
Isn't this stupid?
There is no way to do it. The food in Kaifeng Mansion is now being saved, and every meal in Bianjing City is one-third of what it used to be.
Zhao Ding is in charge of dispatching food from all walks of life in the south to Beijing. If 10,000+ troops suddenly arrive outside the capital, waiting to be fed, will Zhao Ning dig mud for them to eat?
While eating the mud dug by Zhao Guan's house and drinking the water from the Yellow River, Dajun raised 10,000+ thumbs up: Hmm!Guanjia, the mud you dug is really delicious, everyone likes to eat it!
Therefore, they can only be allowed to withdraw to Shaanxi.
But all the envoys brought along.
While writing, Zhao Ning said, "Xuan came to see me."
"Yes!"
Not long after, Wang Huaiji came suddenly: "Guan, the Zhang Jun you asked to find is here."
"Where?"
"Listen to the announcement outside the palace."
Zhao Ning said, "Xuan came to see me."
"Yes!"
This is really great, I was thinking about letting Zhang Jun take charge of all the roads in Shaanxi, when people came, we talked about the matter together.
"By the way, the official family, the senior official asked the minister to send you a message, saying that Wang Xun from Cizhou has already taken back the capital."
"Oh?" Zhao Ning finally put down his pen.
My wallet is finally here, let's see how many people are involved in this case!
It would be great if King Yun could be dug out!
"Let the Imperial City Division take the trial first."
"Yes."
Zhao Ning asked again: "By the way, what's the news from Hebei? Has the latest news about Zong Ze and King Kang come back?"
Chapter 69 See Zhang Jun, the strategy of the monarch and his ministers
"No update yet."
"I know."
Zhao Ning is not in a hurry, everything can't be rushed right now.
In the city of Bianjing, there are different opinions about the situation in Hebei and Hedong, and there is a great momentum of panic, making people still panic.
When the chaos is chaotic, as an emperor, you can't be in a hurry.
Be calm and calm, so that other people will not mess up, and it is not so easy for speculators to make troubles.
Chess has to be played step by step.
He concluded that the Jin army had really withdrawn, and Zongze would definitely be able to stabilize the current situation.
First, Zhang Jun arrived in the palace and summoned Zhang Jun in Wende Hall.
Zhang Jun must be an inescapable character in the history of the turn of the Song Dynasty.
He is even more suitable to be a privy envoy than Li Gang.
Li Gang was impeached by many people for not understanding military affairs, and even Yue Fei also impeached Li Gang.
Of course, this is not to say that Li Gang really doesn't understand military affairs, but that everyone's arguments are different, or that Li Gang's military talents can only be counted as half and half.
Is Zhang Jun's military talent good?
Not necessarily.
The real excellence of these people is that they can handle the overall situation at critical moments.
At the turn of the Song Dynasty, there were too many unreliable people.
The closest one is Tong Guan, who fought against the Liao Kingdom and ordered Zhong Shidao to adopt a policy of "non-violence and non-resistance" against the enemy. Later, the Jinren went south, left everyone on the northern line, and fled back to Tokyo alone.
In some key positions, you may not be required to be proficient in very professional skills, but you must know how to stabilize the overall situation and carry things up so that the people below can operate in an orderly manner.
This point, whether it is Li Gang or Zhang Jun, is very good.
Zhang Jun walked into Wende Hall and saluted the emperor: "I see Your Majesty, Sheng'an."
"You are here." Zhao Ning's tone was very flat.
"I don't know what your Majesty's order is when he summons the minister."
