"Liangshan bandits……"

Zhao Huan repeated it subconsciously, and a look of panic inevitably appeared on his face.

King Yun chuckled at the side and said:"They are just a group of thieves. Why are you so worried, brother?"

Zhao Huan said coldly:"Last year, the army of 150,000 was defeated miserably in the Tenth Festival. The imperial court finally used refined iron to A total of 2 million yuan of medicinal materials and copper coins were used to redeem the Jiedu and captured soldiers and horses. This spring, Liangshan launched a large-scale attack again, attacking Huaidong and Hebei. If he succeeds, he will have three out of ten in the world, and he will only occupy the west of Beijing and Tokyo. In several states, the Liangshan bandits can defeat 150,000 officers and soldiers. If they have millions of people from Hebei Road, Three Prefectures, Twenty-four Prefectures and Fourteenth Army, plus Jingdong East Road, West Road, and Huaidong Road, there will be at least There are millions of people in nearly a hundred counties in twenty states. With their business methods and military training capabilities,……"

King Yun's expression finally changed.

When he ransomed people last year, Zhao Ji may have felt embarrassed, so the matter was always carried out in secret.

Only Cai Jing, Tong Guan, Cai You, and Li Yan, the top confidants and eunuchs in the Liang division, knew about this matter.

Among the princes, the Crown Prince Zhao Huan knew the details.

Although Zhao Ji prefers the third prince, King Yun, he also knows the priorities. All military and state affairs, especially those that will affect the national affairs of the Song Dynasty in the future, still need to be known to Zhao Huan.

In his heart, Zhao Ji didn't like Zhao Huan, but he liked King Yun.

But it does not have the idea of ​​easy storage.

At most, it can be called King Yun's Imperial City Division, which is actually a channel for the third child to make money.

As a result, the ambition of appointing King Yun grew like weeds, which Zhao Ji never expected.

It is enough to prove Zhao Ji's stupidity.

What is frivolity?

He just does things without thinking, like a blind bear who picks up things and throws them away.

There is no precedent for the prince to be in charge of the Imperial City, which shows that this is inappropriate.

Zhao Ji didn't think about it seriously and just did what he wanted to do.

Just like repairing the royal garden, collecting flowers and stones, and expanding the fields, these things can be done as soon as they want to.

The established laws of the Northern Song Dynasty were severely damaged by it. The ethics of civil servants fell like a cliff during the Huizong Dynasty, and they did not recover until the Southern Song Dynasty.

Seeing King Yun's expression change, Zhao Huan felt a sick sense of pleasure in his heart.

Fight, just fight!

This great position may not belong to our father, son and brother!

If Wang Lun came to kill him...

Zhao Huan suddenly wanted to laugh wildly.

This chair of the official family of the Song Dynasty may have to change its surname from Zhao to Wang. When the time comes, will you fight for it, King Yun?

The atmosphere was solemn for a moment, and many princes and concubines could see the madness deep in Zhao Huan's eyes, and even King Yun couldn't help but take a few steps back.

Emperor Roufu stepped forward, gave a gentle blessing, and whispered:"Your Highness, is this Liangshan bandit very powerful?"

"Awesome is awesome……"Zhao Huan still likes several younger sisters. The main reason is that he has no interests involved with these emperors and concubines. The other party is young and not yet married. There is no political decision of the husband's family that affects the relationship between the brothers and sisters, so Zhao Huan Huan smiled and replied:"But my father has summoned Tong Guan and others to discuss the matter. He is probably going to send out a large number of troops. It should be fine."

Zhao Huan didn't believe his nonsense at all, but he could still do otherwise. How to say?

It cannot be said that the Liangshan bandits will be extremely difficult to control from now on.

The court had no choice but to do something bad.

His father, the emperor, was wise, powerful and majestic in the harem and inner court.

In fact, Zhao Huan had long understood that the ministers appointed by his father had a bad reputation, and their ability was only to help his father make money.

For example, Cai Jing became famous during the reign of Shenzong and was known for his shrewdness and ability.

A good calligraphy is not inferior to that of the father, and a person is the first-class smart person.

But Cai Jing only did two things when he became prime minister. The first was to flatter Zhao Ji. Whatever Zhao Ji wanted, Cai Jing would do it for him, in order to consolidate his favor and position.

The second thing is to continuously attack the old party so as not to give the old party a chance to make a comeback.

Apart from that, Cai Jing just makes money for himself.

So what kind of emperor there is, there are what kind of ministers.

Cai Jing was also known as a shrewd, capable and courageous person in the New Party back then. But when he became prime minister, his integrity immediately dropped to zero. Are you saying it has nothing to do with Huizong? Is that possible?

Cai Jing, Cai You, Zhu Meng, as well as Li Yan, Tong Guan, Liang Shizhong... all the famous ministers in the Huizong Dynasty were of this kind.

It was not until the Jingkang period that the world was about to perish. At that time, talents such as Li Gang and Zong Ze gradually became famous and began to emerge.

Zhao Huan is also an ordinary person, timid and with poor judgment.

But Zhao Huan at least knew that running a country should not be done in such a messy way.

Zhao Huan had just become emperor, and the liquidation began after the Jin soldiers retreated. Cai Jing, Zhu Meng, Tong Guan, and Liang Shizhong were dismissed one after another, sentenced to death, and their homes were confiscated.

One is that the ability and conduct of these officials were so bad that Qin Zong had to liquidate them to quell public anger and give the dynasty a better start.

Secondly, there is an emperor and a courtier. The old ministers must be dismissed and the new ministers who are promoted will be grateful to the new emperor and serve him wholeheartedly.

Otherwise, don't think that just because you are an emperor, you can automatically demand allegiance from your ministers... Three years after Emperor Jiaqing ascended the throne, he was actually a crown prince who claimed to be the emperor. He Shen and other ministers only listened to Qianlong. As long as Qianlong did not die, the real power would lie with Qianlong. In the hands of the Supreme Emperor, Jiaqing was still an"emperor" studying government affairs.

From this point of view, Qin Zong was decisive, thoughtful, and courageous.

When Huizong abdicated, he had been the emperor for nearly 30 years. Qinzong decisively eliminated all of his father's closest officials.

Jiaqing succeeded to the throne with great trepidation and still regarded himself as the crown prince.

The two are very different.

But the biggest shortcoming of Qinzong was that he was too timid...

He was frightened by the Jin people and offered a large amount of gold, silver and silk for the first time, wiping out the century-old savings of the Song Dynasty.

The second time, he personally went to Jinying to"negotiate". As a result, the father and son were detained together, the kings were detained, the concubines, the emperor's concubine were captured, and all the officials were captured. The entire Kaifeng city was emptied, and the Northern Song Dynasty was destroyed.

As long as he runs away or recruits people to hold on, how can tens of thousands of Jin soldiers attack Fengjian City?

This is not a battle in Taiyuan. Taiyuan is an important strategic location. Without occupying Taiyuan, the Jin people will not be able to stabilize the territory of Hebei. If Hebei is unstable, even Kaifeng cannot do it.

Li Gang and Zongze successively defended Kaifeng. The Jin people did not intend to occupy Kaifeng at the beginning. There were two main reasons. First, the Western Army still occupied Hedong Road and Taiyuan, threatening Hebei Road. With their backs unstable, the Jin people did not go deep into Kaifeng alone. So stupid.

The second is the appearance of a large number of rebels, threatening the Jin people's rear.

In the five or six years from Jingkang to Jianyanchu, the Jin people had been working hard to solve the troubles behind them and the problems in Hedong and Shaanxi. (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

After these places were defeated, the Hebei rebel army was also suppressed. At that time, the Jin talents abandoned the puppet regime they had established and went into battle themselves. At that time, Li Gang was demoted to the south, and Zong Ze After his death, there was no prestigious person stationed in Kaifeng. As a result, it was successfully taken over by Jin Wushu and others. At that time, it was difficult to recover.

This is why Zhang Jun, Li Gang and others strongly urged Zhao Gou to return to Kaifeng.

The imperial court returned to garrison, and the soldiers, horses, and food supplies were concentrated, so they might not be able to cope with the insufficient strength of the Jin people.

As long as they hold on, the Jin people can only retreat to Hebei, or draw the Yellow River as a boundary with the imperial court.

Although Hebei 1st Road and Jingdong, Jingxi and other military states were lost, the Jin people in these places had no roots, so it was not impossible to recover.

But Zhao Gou had no courage, and neither did the early Southern Song army. It was a continuation of the Northern Song army. It collapsed when encountering the enemy, and it was difficult to win in the field. Zhao Gou was frightened. After being frightened in Yangzhou, he was not at ease when he went to Jiankang, so he directly Fleeed south to Hangzhou.

After the Jin people won the battle of Fuping, the roads in Hedong, Hebei, and Shaanxi were in hand, and the roads in Jingdong, Jingxi, and Jingji were naturally under their control.

At that time, the Jin people were not satisfied with the north and wanted to destroy the Song Dynasty, thinking that they had achieved full success.

Fortunately, the main forces of the Southern Song Dynasty were also brought out. Liu Guangshi, Wu Jie, Wu Lin brothers, Yang Yi, Yue Fei, and Han Shizhong were all able to withstand the Jin attack head-on. After decades of fighting, the Jurchen elite It also suffered a lot of damage, and its combat effectiveness began to decline.

The dividing line was that Tiefu Tu was destroyed by the Song soldiers. After several losses, Jin Wushu became discouraged and determined to negotiate a peace with the Song people and call it quits.

Throughout the late Northern Song Dynasty and the early Southern Song Dynasty, the evolution was generally like this. Land, soldiers, wealth, and people's hearts and minds all changed.

Zhao Gou had a chance to restore the territory south of the Yellow River, but it would be difficult to restore the entire Northern Song Dynasty or even attack Huanglong based on the comparison of the forces of the two sides at that time.

After all, the golden man never tried his best.

Moreover, the combat effectiveness of the northern cavalry in fighting in the south is limited.

But when it comes to the North China Plain and even the Liaodong Plain, which is the home ground of the Jurchens and cavalry, it is absolutely impossible for the Southern Song Dynasty army to fight all the way across.

The current situation is that Jingdong, Hebei, Jingxi, and Huaidong will become Liangshan's home court. Of course, Liangshan also has to worry about Hedong's physical advantage over Hebei, but the most important thing is the support of people's support. This advantage is great for the Song Dynasty. The imperial court is gone.

Wherever the Liangshan Army went, it was said that millions of rebels spontaneously rose up to fight for the Zhao family, a possibility that the court itself did not dare to dream about.

The court should be lucky if millions of rebels did not swarm up to join the Liangshan Army!

In addition, Liangshan has been running prefectures and counties for several years, and has its own set of methods, which can make it stable.

This is also different from the Jin people.

It would be many years before the Jurchens entered the country and conquered the Han lands in the north... Even so, many Han generals formed, which was also a problem that the Jin people had to face.

When the Jin Dynasty and Mongolia stabilized, these warlords surrendered to the Mongols one after another. After several important battles, it was these Han people who started in the late Northern Song Dynasty who stabilized the northern territory, attacked the remaining forces of the Jin Kingdom, and fought for the Mongols. A family of generals.

The Zhang Hongfan family who destroyed the Song Dynasty, Li Fen who stabbed Kublai Khan during the battle with Ali Buge, and the famous Han generals Wang Liangchen, Zhang Rou, Shi Tianze and others who fought for Kublai Khan against Ali Buge. These people are all It started in the late Northern Song DynastyLike the warlord feudal lords in the late Tang Dynasty, the military family was inherited from father to son from generation to generation, and the army was also a professional soldier who had served in the army for generations. The 640 troops led by Ali Buge were directly under Meng Gehan, and there were more than 60 troops stationed in the grassland. The core main force was mainly Qianhu, as well as Nayan, the kings of the Chahatai Khanate and the Ogedai Khanate. There were more than ten or two hundred thousand cavalry in each battle.

The Mongolian army in Kublai Khan's hands was not large, and the main force was the Han army. In the Kaiping Battle in the second year of Zhongtong, Kublai Khan's main force was Zhang Rou and other Han army seventh generations. As a result, more than 100,000 Mongolian cavalry were defeated... many People say that the Han Dynasty defeated the Mongolian cavalry in the late Yuan Dynasty and early Ming Dynasty. In fact, it was just a concerted effort from top to bottom, strict command, and sufficient logistics and supplies. The Han army had already defeated the ancient soldiers in the early Yuan Dynasty.

Even when the Yuan Dynasty destroyed the Southern Song Dynasty, the Han army was the main force. Zhang Hongfan's inscription on the place where he destroyed the Song Dynasty is enough to prove everything.

The Liangshan Army will not encounter these Han army princes. Now some of them are in the Liao Kingdom in the north, such as Guo Yaoshi and his like.

Some of them were descendant families formed by the leaders of the rebel army when the Jin Dynasty destroyed the Northern Song Dynasty. Of course, they cannot exist now.

As the crown prince, Zhao Huan has long been concerned about the current situation and local conditions. It is a fact that the people are not in favor and the people are resentful.

This is why he liquidated the"six thieves" as soon as he came to power.

At this time, he was even more worried... The Liangshan Army could not only conquer Junzhou with overwhelming force, but also occupy it quickly. Not only would it not cause local unrest, but it would also quickly make use of local financial, material and human resources. This made Zhao Huan feel a little... Creepy[]

Zhao Huan believes that his father also knows this truth. This is also the reason why Zhao Ji's expression changed drastically just now.

Internal invaders have always been like this, and the danger is much higher than that of external enemies.

"This time, a large army will surely be gathered for a campaign."

King Yun calmed down at this time, glanced at his pale brother, and felt a sense of contempt in his heart. The eldest brother is really as timid as a mouse!

"Fang La was much more fierce than the Liangshan bandits, and they were defeated in just a few months. The imperial court sent out 300,000 troops. I don’t believe that Liangshan can’t be pacified!"

Zhao Huan could only smile reluctantly at this time, waved his hands, and hurried away.

King Yun and other kings also left separately. With the important event coming, these princes could not sit still.

Only many emperors and concubines remained in the imperial garden. , looked at each other.

The sky was getting dark, and many palace people were lighting palace lanterns everywhere. It was originally a picturesque scenery, but now it had a strange and cold feeling.

There was also a little timidity on the flawless and flawless face. Sexy, it was also the first time she saw her father, the eldest brother of the prince showed such a frightened expression.

"Liangshan Wang Lun……"

The beautiful girl murmured to herself..
