The Golden Army Crossing the River
On the 11th, the Jin army captured Yizhou on Jingdong East Road.
On the 9th, Wanyan Loushi gathered heavy troops to cross the Wei River and attacked Chang'an City, Jingzhao Prefecture, and the governor Guo Yan abandoned the city and fled.
On October, Zhao Gou set out from Pingjiang Prefecture and arrived in Lin'an Prefecture, Hangzhou on the 8th, but still felt unsafe, so he continued to flee to the east sea... On the 16th, the rebel Li Cheng captured Chuzhou on Huainan East Road. On the 17th, Zhao Gou arrived in Shaoxing Prefecture, Yuezhou.
On the day, Zhang Jun, the governor of the Privy Council, arrived at the destination, Xingyuan Prefecture, the capital of Lizhou Road. As soon as Zhang Jun arrived here, he devoted himself to the preparation for the future decisive battle between Fuping. The so-called preparation is nothing more than two words - soldiers, money! Want to fight? These two things are indispensable! The area under Zhang Jun is under the jurisdiction of the entire Song Dynasty. Including the original Northern Song Dynasty, these two areas with the richest reserves in the world at this moment!
The military? The Western Army of the Song Dynasty is the first to none, and it is undisputed. Even if its strength declines due to various reasons, it will not be completely exhausted. Because of famous generals in Shaanxi, newcomers will always emerge!
Money? Sichuan is the last safe haven for the Han people. Whether in ancient times or in modern times, every time the Han people face a catastrophe, the hinterland in Sichuan will have an effect. It can not only take shelter, but also provide money for restoration. The country of Tianfu is not called for nothing!
When Zhang Jun was in office, the first thing he did was to integrate the Western Army of the Song Dynasty! The method he used was very powerful, and he directly dismissed the Shaanxi commander who was officially appointed by the court, Wang Si, the commander of the Huanqing Army, and Zhang Shen, the commander of the Xihe Army. At the same time, Chengdu Fu Road and Lizhou Road were economically Caosi Road, but as the military Shuaisi Road, it was collectively called Yili Road, but Zhang Jun dismantled it: Lu Fayuan, you can only manage Chengdu Fu Road now, and I, Zhang Jun, sent someone else to Lizhou Road! And a large number of young and strong factions, such as the sons of the famous general Liu Zhongwu, Liu Xi, Liu Qi, Wu brothers, and Wang Yan... were promoted and placed in prominent positions: Liu Xi, Liu Xi, Zhao Zhe, Huanqing Army, Liu Qi, Liu Qi, Jingyuan Army, Sun Wo, Qin Feng Army, and Wang Yan!
This is equivalent to a naked seizure of power! In the army, even if it is a direct boss, there are huge risks to do this. History will prove that when Zhang Jun does this a few years later, it will cause irrescue huge losses! The just-stable empire is turbulent again, and the top generals turn against each other, and nearly 1/5 of the Southern Song Dynasty's military power rebelled and surrendered to the enemy!
But this time, Zhang Jun succeeded! Because Qu Duan was conquered by him!
At the same time, the Jin army, led by the famous fourth prince of Jin Wushu Wanyan Zongbi, began the third, most glorious and most afflicting southern expedition against the Southern Song Dynasty! On the same day when Zhang Jun arrived at Xingyuan Prefecture, the Jin army captured Shouchun Prefecture, Shouzhou on the west road of Huainan. On the 5th, the Jin army continued to capture Huangzhou, and the guard Zhao Lingqi died in battle. On the 6th, the Jin army began to cross the river in Huangzhou, crossing the sky in a mighty way. And the one who should have guarded this section of the Yangtze River was stationed.
General Liu Guangshi, one of the four generals of Zhongxing in Jiangzhou, but he once again started to disappear! He just sent the first general under his command, Wang De, the former commander of the army, to conduct regular inspections. When he heard that the Jin army had crossed the river in a large number, Liu Guangshi disappeared instantly... The Jin army was able to cross the Yangtze River smoothly. After a short rest in Daye County of Xingguo Army, he sent a side army to attack Hongzhou City, the capital of Jiangnan West Road where Empress Dowager Meng was located!
On the 6th day of the Jin army crossing the river, Zhang Jun began the second pre-war preparation - money! He appointed a Sichuanese named Zhao Kai to return to his hometown, starting with the alcohol tax, and plundered the cash from the Sichuan people! The plundering was clean, and his successor, Comrade Zhao Ding, cursed because Sichuan was gone at that time... With this money, Zhang Jun hoarded huge amounts of military supplies and money!
Zhang Jun thought that his money was the lifeblood of the Western Army, and Qu Duan was the nominal leader of the Song army, but he also listened to him, and now he could only wait until the time was ripe to implement the huge and brilliant plan in his heart!
On November 1, Wanyan Zongbi led the main force of the Jin army to attack Luzhou on Huainan West Road, and the guard Li Hui surrendered. At the same time, Wang Shan, the rebels stationed in Wuwei's army, also surrendered to the Jin army. The Jin army seized Wang Shan and disbanded his people. The remaining troops, led by Zhu You, Zhang Yuan and other generals, fled in Huainan. On the 4th, the Jin army attacked Hezhou on Huainan West Road, and the guard Li Chu surrendered. On the 5th, the Jin army broke through the Wuwei Army, and the guard Li Zhiji fled south. Wuweiren, the governor Wang Zhidao, the governor of Liyang County of Hezhou, led the people to continue to defend. On the 6th, Wanyan Zongbi attacked Caishi Ferry and wanted to cross the river here, but was defeated by Guo Wei, the governor of Taipingzhou, and was defeated again the next day. He fought again and was defeated again. He was defeated. As a last resort, Wanyan Zongbi finally chose Majiadu, which bordered the Wuwei Army with Jiankang Prefecture, and let the army cross the river.
On the 8th, the chief minister of the Privy Council of Quan Tongzhi Teng Kang, and Liu Jue escorted Empress Dowager Meng and his concubines Gaozong and his concubines to Qianzhou to flee south. The Jiangnan West Road Pacification and Control Envoy, and the Hongzhou Prefect Wang Zixian also fled south. On the 1st, Wanyan Zongbi captured Liuhe County, Zhenzhou East Road, Huainan East Road. On the same day, the Jin army's side troops captured the Linjiang Army on Jiangnan West Road, and the guardian General Wu fled. On the 14th, the Jin army's side troops attacked Hongzhou City and the acting guardian Li Jizhong surrendered. On the 16th, Wanyan Zongbi captured Zhenzhou, and the guardian Xiang Ziqian fled. On the 17th, Empress Dowager Meng and his entourage fled to Jizhou on Jiangnan West Road.
On the 18th, Wanyan Zongbi led the main force of the Jin army to cross the river in Majiadu. Before that, Du Chong, the left-behind defender of Jiankang, had ordered 60,000 soldiers to defend along the river bank, but no matter how Yue Fei and other generals cried and complained, he would never leave. Later, he heard that Zhang Chao's defense was lost and the Jin army was crossing the river. Du Chong urgently sent the commander Chen Sui to lead 17 generals including Yue Fei, Liu Gang, Qi Fang, and other 17 generals, and ten thousand soldiers out of the city to fight. Then, Wang Xie, the commander of the Imperial Camp, led 1,000 people to reinforcements. On that day, the Jin army vanguard who had crossed the river captured Lishui County, Jiankang Prefecture, and the county magistrate Pan Zhen was killed in battle.
In the Japanese battle at the Majia Ferry Crossing, Chen Sue's Wan Song Army and Wanyan Zongbi fought for more than ten rounds. Although there were many people, they were united and the victory and defeat were basically equal. The Jin army did not gain any advantage. Yue Fei led the Right Army to fight against Wang Bolong's troops of the Jin Dynasty... The war was stalemate, and the Song army fought to the death and hoped to be placed on reinforcements, but Wang Xie fled on the spot. He led the former army's chief general Chen Sue to die in battle, and the other generals fled into rebels. Only Yue Fei led his troops to fight to the death. The entire army retreated to Zhongshan east of Jiankang City. Shao Qing, the commander of the navy, blocked the Yangtze River with one boat and 18 people! The general of the Chixin Team, Liu Yan, was defeated and left Changzhou and reported the news to Han Shizhong, who was stationed in Zhenjiang Prefecture. Han immediately made a wise decision to "avoid the sharpness of the morning and attack him and return in the evening" first retreated to Jiangyin Army in Changzhou, waiting for an opportunity there.
On the Sunday, the Jin army captured Jizhou on the west road of Jiangnan. The guardian Yang Yuan abandoned the city and fled. Empress Dowager Meng and his concubines of Gaozong fled urgently the night before. At dawn, they fled to Taihe County, more than 0 kilometers south of Jizhou City. Here, news of the loss of Jizhou came, and the entire army collapsed. The officials and soldiers chose to go up the mountain to make thieves. Millions of gold and silk, 160 palace servants were all stolen, and countless dead. The only follower of Empress Dowager Meng was left.
He Jian, Wang Gongji, and Zhang Ming were just people. The Jin army then divided their troops again and attacked Fuzhou and Yuanzhou, and the guards Wang Zhongshan and Wang Zhongyi all surrendered. The other side chased Empress Dowager Meng. When they chased Taihe County, Empress Dowager Meng and Concubine Pan Xian (Zhao Xian's biological mother) had fled to Wan'an County, more than 40 kilometers south of Taihe County, and landed here. The two ladies of gold and noble women sat on the farmer's carriage and continued to flee to Qianzhou City.
At the same time, among the main forces of the Jin army led by Wanyan Zongbi, the vanguard troops who had crossed the river broke through Jianping County of Guangde's army. On the 5th, Zhao Gou set out from Shaoxing Prefecture, Yuezhou, preparing to go north to fight the enemy. He arrived at Qianqingyan, more than 0 kilometers northwest that night, and received the defeat from Du Chong here. The Censor Zhao Ding and Prime Minister Lu Yihao both strongly advised Zhao Gou not to take risks. So on the 6th, Zhao Gou returned to Yuezhou and issued an order: Once the Jin army approached, he would escape at any time! Run? Then how to run? Two roads: dry road or sea road.
Hanlu was rejected by the owner of Jianyan Group at the first time. It was really a pity to run away with the Jurchens on land. Those savages could not get off the horse for days or nights, and their life problems were solved on horseback. How could this be compared? Only the sea route! Zhao Gou was prepared this time. He prepared a lot of sea boats in Hangzhou Bay in Dinghai County, Mingzhou. This time he repeatedly said: No one is allowed to borrow privately under any excuses!
On the 7th, Li Bian, Minister of Revenue, and Chen Bangguang, the commander of the commander of the Yangtze River, opened the Jiankang city gate to welcome the Jin army into the city. Wanyan Zongbi was overjoyed, "If Jinling does not bother with attacks, great things will be accomplished." The Jin army entered Jiankang City with great swagger. Only Yang Bangyi, the chief judge of the Jiankang Prefecture, wrote 10 big words "I would rather be a ghost of the Zhao family than a minister of other countries" on his clothes, and he was proudly not worshipping him! Hum? You ask the Minister of the Song Dynasty, Du Chong and Du, the Lord of Jiankang? He has reached the north bank of the Yangtze River. Soon after, you will see him rushing over with the Jin army. At that time, he was already a Jin!
On the 9th, Zhao Gou set out from Shaoxing Prefecture in Yuezhou and headed to the beach. On the same day, the Jin army's partial division attacked the Jianchang Army on Jiangnan West Road. On the 0th, Yang Bangyi was cut off by Wanyan Zongbi.
On January 4, the pacification envoy of Zhejiang and the prefect of Zhenjiang, Hu Tang, was killed by the rebel Qi Fang.
On the 5th, Zhao Gou arrived in Mingzhou. Zhang Gongyu reported that more than a thousand sea boats had been moored outside Dinghai County, Mingzhou, and Zhao Gou was overjoyed.
On the 7th, the Jin army captured Guangde army, and the guard Zhou Lie was killed. On the 8th, the Jin army captured Anji County, Huzhou.
On that day, Jianyan Group officially decided to go to sea to take refuge. However, although more than a thousand ships were there, it was still not enough! Zhao Gou equipped himself with a full set of ruling teams, and the entire set of families of these officials were accompanied. In addition, there were a full set of direct guards in various squads, which were all allocated to each ship with 60 guards, and these guards also had family members. If they were all on the ship, the tickets would not be enough?
Prime Minister Lu Yihao issued an order: Every direct guard can bring his family members on the boat, that's enough!
After the order was issued, the entire class's direct camp was full of curses, and the guards were angry and intercepted Lu Yihao on the way. They asked: Prime Minister, we have parents and wives, and I don't know who these two places are given? No matter how you calculate it, they will destroy family. This is the bottom line that the Chinese people attach the most importance to and cannot touch!
But so what? Lu Yihao is a person with a more temper than anything else. Even Zhang Jun admired Lu Gong's heroic spirit. At this time, when facing the questioning, Prime Minister Lu not only did not think that his order was wrong, but Thunder was furious and wanted to deal with these guards who violated his majesty! Ban Zhi and others were furious and pulled out their swords on the spot to chop him! At the critical moment, the political affairs officer Fan Zongyin came forward and pulled Lu Yihao into the palace... Zhao Gou in the palace was very peaceful. He picked up the pen gently and calmly and wrote to Ban Zhi and told them: I have misconsidered this matter and have made other arrangements. I will not let Ban Zhi separate my flesh and blood. Don't worry, we are a big family living together, and no one can do without...
The class members felt very warm and had a break of confidence.
On the 9th of the next day, Emperor Gaozong of Song, Zhao Gou, ordered the Imperial Camp Commander General Liu Hongdao to lead troops to guard outside the palace gate. He was wearing a helmet and armor, holding a bow and arrow, and led Xin Qizong, the commander of the Imperial Camp, and Yao Duan, the personal general of the army, to rush into the Banzhi Guard camp! Some of the terrified Zhengzhimen fled to the house and some jumped over the wall, but they were useless. At that time, the arrows were like rain, and all those who dared to move were shot down. Zhao Gou himself also shot two arrows and shot two people from the roof!
The emperor took action and frightened the Banzhi people, and they surrendered collectively. After surrender, Zhao Gou was still in a bad mood. On the 10th, all 17 people including Zhang Bao were beheaded, and Banzhi was disbanded and divided into various troops... The rebels no longer exist...
This is Zhao Gou who has experienced Miao and Liu mutiny. He became much calmer and crueler, and knew to attack the enemy. Every time I see this scene, I feel regretful: Zhao Gou did not reflect on whether his behavior was wrong after the mutiny, so that he became better. The lesson he summed up was: be tolerant, be ruthless, and if you take action, you will definitely kill!
It can be seen that a person’s essence is the most important thing! People who are kind are different, while those who are indifferent see danger!
On the 11th, Wanyan Zongbi attacked Lin'an Prefecture, Qiantang ordered Zhu Zhu to lead the militia to fight. On the 15th, Hangzhou City was broken. On the same day, Zhao Gou fled to Dinghai County and officially went into the sea... To be honest, no one wanted to go into the sea until the last moment. That was not only a security issue, but also the image of the government was collapsed. He would not take that step until the destruction! But Zhao Gou didn't care at this time! From this time on, the fleet would float for a month and a half in the vast East Sea. In addition to the prime minister, Zhao Gou was surrounded by the Censor General Zhao Ding, the right counselor Fu Zhirou, the Minister of Revenue Ye Fen, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue Li Zhengmin, the Minister of the Secretariat Li Zhengmin, the Minister of the Secretariat Li Zhengmin, the Taichang Shaoqing Chen Jian, the Royal Camp of Xin Qizong and the Xin Yongzong brothers, and the troops of the Yao Duan, the personal soldiers of the Prime Minister Lu Yihao.
