Fu Song

Chapter 533

Chenqiaoyi was defeated, and the defense on the east side of Tokyo City collapsed, but the Liao army only approached the city, and did not launch an attack on the tall and fortified Tokyo City.

A large number of people from around Gyeonggi who were plundered were driven to the city wall to cry day and night, which broke the morale of the defenders on the city and their morale was low, but at any rate, everyone still guarded the city, even if they were crying, they were still working hard. post.

But the surrender of the Bianhe navy became the last straw that crushed everyone.

The Bian River is the first of the four major rivers that pass through the city of Tokyo. It connects the Yellow River and the Yangtze River, enabling materials from all over the country to be transported to Tokyo through this river. It is one of the major transportation channels of the Song Dynasty.The Bianhe River in Zhao and Song Dynasties is completely the book of Jianguo, which is completely different from other water conservancy.

Although the Liao army besieged the city, because the Liao army did not have a navy here, even if it was very meager, there were still some grain ships on the Bian River that came in from the outside after all kinds of difficulties and dangers, and unloaded bags of grain. Down.

Even if only two or three of the ten boats can successfully enter the city, it still gives people endless hope.

At least, communication with the outside world has not been completely cut off.

At least, the various ministers outside are still trying to find a way to help Tokyo. Maybe if they persist for a while, reinforcements will come?

But the Bianhe navy actually surrendered.

Although the Bianhe Navy is a joke to many experts.

Most of the time, they walk on the Bian River to collect taxes, but anyone who is rowing on the Bian River, even if you are standing in a big bathtub, you have to pay taxes.

Because of the importance of the Bianhe River and its prosperity, it is doomed that the Bianhe Navy Division from top to bottom, one by one, is basically slick.Even a small boatman's annual profit is definitely much better than that of a small official in other places.

It's not that soldiers who become rich will definitely become greedy for life and fear death. Generals like An Ming who were born as playboys, when the country is in crisis, know that they are defeated and still rush forward without hesitation. If you are at ease, you will inevitably lack the upward momentum and the courage to fight hard.

Moreover, the Bianhe navy is good at collecting taxes, but it is not as good as marching and fighting.Their military strength is basically limited to the fact that every year when the officials want to inspect the army, they will drive the ban to the Jinming Pool for a drill.For this drill, they usually prepare one to two months in advance.

The gorgeously decorated ships, the soldiers in bright armor, and the highly entertaining performances will make everyone in Tokyo feel that it is really worth it to come to Jinmingchi early in the morning to squeeze in a seat.

But no matter how bad the Bianhe navy is, he is still the only navy around Tokyo.

In the old-fashioned plan, they were originally useful, but now, they actually surrendered.

The surrender of the Bianhe navy allowed the Liao army to easily control the Shangshan Gate in the south, the Tongjin Gate in the north, and split the entire Tokyo city in two.

All plans had to be changed, and the plan to use the navy to send the official Zhao Jing out was completely bankrupt.

Now we can only go by land, a way to break out of the encirclement that is more dangerous and has no future.

But what else?

We must hurry up and make a last-ditch effort.

With the entire Bian River out of control, the complete collapse of the city of Tokyo is imminent.

An elite cavalry team consisting of only [-] people, guarding the official Zhao Jing and Zhao Jing's eldest son Zhao Lv is preparing to break out from the south. Everyone, including the queen, will be left in the city .

An eunuch who looks somewhat similar to Zhao Jing puts on official clothes to impersonate him.

In Beicheng, the closed Fengqiu Gate opened wide.

Fengqiu Gate was originally the main gate of Beixiao's sacrificial place for the official family of Zhao and Song Dynasties.

Now, it has become the avenue of surrender.

A few miles away from Fengqiu Gate, countless Liao army elites gathered, and the emperor and empress' ceremonial guards stretched for miles.

Everyone outside the city is excited.

Ordinary soldiers were excited because they no longer had to risk their lives to attack the city.

From the outside, Tokyo City will undoubtedly make all the attackers daunting, even if the opponent is at the end of the road, but the besieged beasts are still fighting, coupled with the almost perfect defense design of Tokyo Metropolis City, it will definitely form a flesh and blood mill here.

They surrendered, and they no longer need to use their lives to accumulate victories, and these lives will undoubtedly be filled by ordinary soldiers and ordinary people.

No one should die on the eve of victory.

So, they are happy.

Moreover, the prosperity of Tokyo is a matter of heaven and earth. If nothing else, just looking at the size of the city is enough to make these soldiers from the North dumbfounded.
The generals leading the army were happy.

On top of their military achievements, they will add a contribution to the destruction of the country. A general may not have such a contribution in his life, but if he has such a contribution, as long as his descendants do not seek rebellion, basically It is possible to enjoy wealth and honor for generations.

The traitors rejoice.

People like Cui Ang, Qu Zhen, and Chen Yu may be happier than the Liao people.

As traitors, if they can't completely knock down their past masters to the ground, step on them a few more times, and completely stink, then they will definitely be the ones who will stink in the future.

Although it is said that Wuding Shiben cannot be used as Wuding Cooking, it is a slogan after all.
If it is possible, no one wants to be infamous forever!

Therefore, if the dynasty they used to serve for is completely wiped out and the new master becomes the master of the world, then the revision of the annals of history will inevitably beautify their behavior, and under the pen of Spring and Autumn, all the ugliness will be eliminated. Erase, the ferocious face will be modified to be kind.

The capital is destroyed, the emperor descends, and a country is gone.

How could they not like it?

Yelu Junxi, Emperor of Daliao.

It has only been seven or eight years since he ascended the throne of Daliao Emperor, but he has achieved what his ancestors never accomplished in their lifetime.

Song and Liao have confronted each other for many years. Although Liao has always been strong and Song is weak, Liao has nothing to do with this neighbor, and it is even incomparable to it in terms of wealth. The doll, you seem to be able to grab it with a stretch of your hand, but every time you do it, you will find that this seemingly weak guy is covered with spikes all over his body. When he shrinks his neck and squats down on the ground At that time, you really had nothing to do with him.

Even though he was jealous, he could only watch helplessly.

The looting on the border and the yearly coins have fundamentally changed the gap between the rich and the poor on both sides, because the money that was finally obtained from the Song Dynasty was earned back by the Song people with various commodities in a blink of an eye. Even have to look for them.

This situation did not improve until after he ascended the throne.

To be precise, it was after Queen Xiao Chuo officially appeared on the stage that things got better.

This woman from Bianliang's aristocratic family is both civil and military, and she has insight into the strategy of enriching the country and strengthening the army. Many of her insights and methods are even inferior to Yelujun who claims to be highly intelligent and knowledgeable in the poor world.

After all, knowledge is knowledge and means are means.

Just because you know where the problem is, doesn't necessarily mean that you will be able to find a symptomatic treatment.

Sometimes, you can even just watch it degenerate until you are terminally ill.

Yelujun lets Xiao Chuo do it.

However, in six or seven years, the Liao Kingdom underwent earth-shaking changes. Power began to be concentrated step by step towards the central government.

Then, under the situation that Zhao Song, a stupid enemy, made mistakes again and again, Yelujun finally looked forward to this day in his lifetime.

After Zhao Song was destroyed, with this achievement, even the founding emperor would give himself a thumbs up and say that he is my son and grandson, while other grandparents had to stand back.

Therefore, there are no regrets in life.

Yelujun's face was flushed, and his breathing was a little short.Today, he put on a full set of emperor's dress, which made him feel a little overwhelmed. The heavy crown made him feel that he could hardly lift his head normally, and his fragile body had already brought him to the brink of collapse, but no matter what, today he also Will stick to it.

Slightly turned his head to look at Xiao Chuo who was sitting next to him, who was also wearing a formal gift. The other party stared straight ahead, with a solemn expression, without any expression.

The power of the Liao Kingdom was also accompanied by the power of the empress. Now in Guotong, the prestige and strength of the empress Xiao Chuo should not be inferior to Yelujun.

This woman is indeed a rare genius in the world.

However, everything is still under his control.

God gave this woman to himself to help him fulfill his long-cherished wish of unifying the world. Without her, Yelujun knew that it would be impossible for him to substantially change the confrontation between Song and Liao.

And based on his understanding of the internal corruption of the Liao Kingdom, if one is not good, it may mean that the Liao Kingdom will continue to decline ahead of the Song Kingdom.

How good God treats me!
Within a few days, a tall ceremony platform built with rammed earth went away, its height even surpassed the height of Tokyo City, sitting on it, overlooking the road that stretches straight from Fengqiu Gate to the ceremony. At the foot of the platform, Yelujun's heart was surging.

It won't be long before Zhao Song's Supreme Emperor will appear at his feet along this royal road. Of course, the Zhao Song official family who should have appeared here first is preparing to flee at the south gate.

If left unguarded, they are likely to succeed.

After all, at the very beginning, Yelujun did not expect that Zhao Song would use their Supreme Emperor, civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, and even the children of the emperor's relatives and clans as bait to cover their officials' escape.

However, some of them leaked the news in advance. This is the tragedy of a country that is about to perish.

The tree fell and the hozen scattered, the wall fell and everyone pushed.

Even though there are still countless people with lofty ideals who want to take the last fight and leave the seeds of counterattack for this country, there are even more people who want to use this as a step up in exchange for the continuation of their own glory and wealth.

Yelujun looked down on this kind of person very much.

But Xiao Chuo told him that in the future, if Daliao wanted to rule the great country of Zhao and Song, then these people who worked for them would be the best tools.

Moreover, it is a tool that can be replaced at any time.

Bad things can be done by people like him, and Daliao doesn’t have to show up at all. When these people make people angry, they can kill them to quell the anger of the people. Not only can the court get a sage’s praise, but they can be promoted A group of people stood up to pledge their allegiance to Daliao.

Therefore, it’s okay to not like it, or not to like it, but you have to use it when you need it, and reward it when you need it.

Looking left and right, Liao Chen on one side and Han Chen on the other.

Standing in Hanchen's head are people like Cui Ang, Liu Yu, and even Liu Quanyi from Hedong, who worked tirelessly to come here after knowing about this matter.

But people like Lin Ping and Lu Ben'an stood behind them instead.

Of course, Lin Ping Lu Ben'an didn't care about such a ranking at all, because in terms of their strength, these two could kill any king standing above them at will and would not take any responsibility.

As for letting them stand in the head, what does it matter?

The full set of guards of honor for the emperor of the Liao Dynasty made the entire Fengqiu gate look very solemn. Some people rarely see such guards of honor in their entire lives.

Even the civil servants and generals of the Liao Kingdom around the ceremony platform all have dignified faces.

Ordinary soldiers didn't even dare to take a breath after seeing the guard of honor fully unfolded.

The six elephants are divided into left and right sides, with the six guides of the northern and southern courtyards as the forerunner, and the honor guards of the six armies lined up in turn, with the sound of bells, drums, and horns echoing endlessly.

"Here we come!" Someone on the podium lost his voice.

Inside Fengqiu Gate, the crowd meanders out
The first few, wearing plain clothes and white clothes, tied thorns behind their backs, and staggered forward.

"The person at the head should be Emperor Zhao Song and Zhao Taishang, the people next to him should be the people playing Zhao Jing, and those behind them should be Chen Gui Xia Jie and other people in power in Zhao Kingdom."

The eunuch with excellent eyesight explained softly to the sitting emperor and empress.

Zhao Suo didn't want to come, he was forced to come by Xia Jie.

Xia Jie was so sick that only a bone remained, and he seemed to fall down in a gust of wind, but today he also put on his court clothes, and he went out after dressing up a bit.

It was precisely because of the persecution of the two assistant ministers, Wen and Wu, that Zhao Suo had to come here in tears.

"Why don't you die on the bed?" Chen Gui looked at Xia Jie and fell down.

"The country is destroyed and the family is destroyed!" Xia Jie sighed: "I am the head and assistant for the death, and you are the privy of the country. You two should be responsible for this. Since you are going to die, why don't I come?"

Chen Gui nodded: "I've been a minister of the same dynasty for so long, today is the day I see you the most pleasing to the eye."

"To each other, to each other!" Xia Jie turned his head to look into the city, the tall city wall blocked his sight, making him unable to see anything.

"When I leave the city, I have already made arrangements at home." Chen Gui said indifferently: "When I wait for the mobilization, there will probably be no living people at home."

"Me too, I would rather go to Huangquan all the way, than let them be humiliated by Liao thieves!"

The line out of the city is getting longer and longer and more and more.
