Great Song Pirate

Chapter 676
Standing on the top of the city tower, Xu Yi looked at the chaotic city, a little dumbfounded. This was the first time he had experienced such a siege battle, and he didn't know what to do!

Teams of the Fubo army were walking on the street. They saw the people of their Dading Mansion along the way. They were very respectful to the Fubo army. They stood by the side to make way for the Fubo army. When they turned their heads, they saw soldiers wearing gold. When the people in costumes appeared, they immediately turned into wild beasts, chasing and killing those they identified as the Jurchens alive.

Such a scene made the whole Fubo army feel both funny and terrifying. The common people are really people who can't afford to provoke them!They are like a group of rabbits, they usually look gentle and harmless, but when the opportunity comes, when they are cornered, they will show their big teeth and pounce on you fiercely, no wonder the Buddha said It's not that they didn't report, the time has not yet come, after the Jin people oppressed these old Liao people for several years, the people here finally found a chance to take revenge on them!

Xu Yi pointed at the chaotic city, and smiled wryly at Li Bo: "It seems that we should do something. If we let them go on like this, there is no guarantee that something will happen! Order the clerk, and quickly write the Anmin Announcement to let the common people Let's go home immediately, don't continue the chaos, and send another patrol team to patrol along the street. If you find someone who dares to take advantage of the chaos to rob again, you will be severely punished. Count the number of ordinary people who asked for rewards, reward them according to the agreement, and take over here. Send troops to garrison treasuries, granaries and other places, and no mistakes are allowed!"

Li Bo nodded repeatedly to accept the orders, and immediately arranged for his subordinates to carry out these orders, and he himself decided to go to the city to appease the common people and check the situation in the city. When he was about to turn around and leave, Xu Yi stopped him again.

"Leave Li Bo slowly, I still have something for you to do. Send people to blockade the residence of the Jurchen nobles in the city, and prevent the common people from attacking the residence of the Jurchens. We need to do this kind of thing. The Jurchens who live here are terrible. Most of them are relatives of prominent Jurchen aristocrats. It would be a pity to kill them, and these people’s homes are full of fat. If they are robbed by ordinary people, it will not be good for us! Hurry up and make arrangements, first protect Live in the mansions of these Jurchens, order them to surrender immediately, and promise not to kill them!" Xu Yi ordered Li Bo again.

Li Bo laughed, Master Xindao was really thoughtful, even the Jurchen's house did not forget to scratch it!hey-hey!After he nodded to accept the order, he immediately sent troops out, and began to temporarily protect the residences of many Jurchens in the city according to Xu Yi's request.

After more than half a day of appeasement and inspections, Dading Mansion finally gradually settled down. Originally, Dading Mansion had three floors inside and outside. Now after the common people make such a fuss, the inner city does not need to be attacked by the Fubo Army. They were all under the control of the Fubo Army. Only the imperial city in the center and north of the city has not been controlled by the Fubo Army, and the rest of the places have basically been taken over by the Fubo Army.

The chaos in the city finally calmed down with the efforts of many Fubo soldiers. Seeing the mighty Fubo soldiers patrolling the streets, the ordinary people who lost their minds also came to their senses and followed the requirements. After returning to my home, I waited at the door for the investigation of the Fubo Army, registered their "military exploits", and waited for the Fubo Army to reward them for their merits.

The houses of the Jurchens who had not yet been breached by the common people were also surrounded by the Fubo Army, and they began to send people to shout inside, asking them to open the door and surrender immediately, so as to guarantee that they would not be killed, otherwise they would break into the mansion and kill them No chicken or dog stays behind.

After some coercion and temptation, most Jurchen family members had no choice but to surrender. After the Fubo Army took over their mansion, they were put under custody and their identities were screened and registered.

And because the old Liao imperial city was designated as the accompanying capital by the state of Jin, some palace people who were taken over by the state of Jin from the old Liao Dynasty also opened the gate of the palace and announced their surrender after receiving the promise from the Fubo army to guarantee their safety. Xu Yi Only then did he walk into the palace of the former dynasty of the Great Liao Kingdom.

After entering the former imperial city of the Liao Dynasty, Xu Yi realized how grand the Liao Kingdom was before. Although this imperial city was not as large as the imperial city of Bianliang in the Song Dynasty, it still covered an area of ​​more than a thousand acres, and it was a square imperial palace. , the north wall is the wall of the inner city, and the perimeter is two miles long. After entering the imperial city, there is a majestic hall facing you. There is a large plaque hanging above the gate of the hall, on which are written several large characters in Khitan script and parallel, Naturally, Xu Yi did not know the Khitan script, but Xu Yi did recognize the Chinese script. This hall was originally called the Martial Arts Hall. After asking the palace attendants who accompanied him, it turned out that it was the hall where the emperor of the Liao Kingdom lived and worked.

After walking through this martial arts hall, another hall appeared behind. The plaque on it told Xu Yi that this hall was called the Cultural Hall, where the Empress Dowager Liao lived, and there were various functions under the walls of the surrounding imperial city. The courtyards are where the concubines of the imperial palace live. There are many pavilions and pavilions, and they are also quite beautiful. If the Liao Kingdom did not have a strong national power, it would have been extremely difficult to build a capital of this scale.

It's a pity that the emperor of the Liao Kingdom didn't live up to it, and buried the great country that his ancestors managed so hard to manage in the hands of the Jurchens. In the end, only one branch was left and went to the Western Regions to establish a Western Liao Dynasty.

After Xu Yi visited the imperial city, he took this martial arts hall as his temporary palace with peace of mind, and began to handle military affairs here. Anyway, he is now a real prince, and he built this Dading mansion himself. It's not a transgression, not to mention that even if it is a transgression, who can take it?
Before dark, the situation in the city had been completely controlled by the Fubo army, and no loud shouts could be heard anymore. Some of the guys who took advantage of the fire in the city were unlucky and were exposed or captured by the Fubo army. One active one was executed on the street on the spot, which greatly deterred some bad elements and quickly won the hearts of the people in the city.

As for the ordinary people who killed the Jurchens in the chaos, after handing over the bits and pieces of the Jurchens in their hands, the Fubo army also took the silver that was confiscated from the warehouse of Dading Mansion to fulfill their promises, making those ordinary people respect Fubo. The reputation of the army has been repeatedly praised, and the Fubo army has faithfully fulfilled their military discipline, and has done nothing to the common people, completely reassuring the common people in the city, as if nothing happened. Dingfu was completely peaceful, and the common people went back to their homes to find their mothers, but because of the curfew imposed on the city after the Fubo Army took over, some restaurants, Goulan, and shops in the city were unable to operate. It seems that the street is a little cold.

Xu Yi asked about the situation everywhere, and expressed his satisfaction with the results of the day. The Fubo army won a big city like Dadingfu, but no one was killed in battle, only a few unlucky ones were too excited and sprained their ankles That's all, and Xu Yi couldn't believe how rich he got.

Just the gold, silver, copper coins and other things stored in the warehouse of Dading Mansion, if converted into silver, there are a full two to three million taels, and if they are loaded into a cart, it will take hundreds of carts to transport them. After loading, these gold, silver and copper coins were basically received by the Jin Army from the Daliao Kingdom a few years ago, and the money looted by the Zongwang and Zonghan armies from the Song Dynasty, part of which was divided up by the Jin Army soldiers. Part of it was filled into the national treasury, but not all of it was transported to the Huining Mansion in Shangjing. Now it is considered cheap for the Fubo Army and has become the spoils of the Fubo Army.

In addition to money, there is also a large amount of armor stored in the armory in the city, enough to arm tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, some of which are from the Liao Kingdom's previous reserves, and others are things that were snatched back by the Song Dynasty. For a period of time, the Jinren recruited new troops, and they all relied on the reserves here to arm them, which also made it easier for the Fubo Army.

There are also hundreds of thousands of stones of corn, soybeans and other things stored in the grain depot, which is enough to feed tens of thousands of troops for half a year. If the soldiers and generals of the third division are allowed to eat them, they will not be able to eat them all for many years!

In addition, they also captured a large number of Jurchen family members, including Wanyan Zongfu's family, including Zongfu's official wife and Zongfu's son. During the riots, the guards of Zongfu's family resisted desperately and did not let the rioters rush into the mansion. Otherwise, his family members would probably have been cut off by those rioters and used up for rewards.

Everything made Xu Yi feel as if it was in a dream. He couldn't believe it. He had easily won Dading Mansion, the important town of Jinren. If he hadn't looked at the spacious hall, he would really have to go Pinch your thigh to see if you are dreaming.

Everything came too easily, which makes people feel a little unreal, but this is the fact that he has indeed won the Dading Mansion. In this way, the north-south traffic arteries of the Kingdom of Jin are equivalent to being controlled by him in two places at once. To be honest, this is really enough for the Jin Kingdom to be lively for a while, but he wants to see what Wu Qi will do if he buys this Jin Taizong, and see Wanyan Zongwang, Wanyan Zonghan, Wanyan Xieye, Wanyan Zongfu and other big Jin Kingdoms. What should the famous generals do!
Xu Yi sat in the hall, quite complacently complacent, but when he was complacent, a person came out at an inopportune time and poured cold water on him.

"Is your lord happy that you took Dading Mansion easily?" A voice came from His Highness to Xu Yi's ears.

"Hello, Counselor Ma!" Hou Cheng greeted Ma Zhe, who walked in swayingly, in His Royal Highness. Now Ma Zhe is an indispensable person around Xu Yi. All the generals in the army knew that this guy was a super big Yin, a guy full of bad ideas and evil ideas, a guy who couldn't be provoked, even Hou Cheng was very polite to him.

Ma Zhe stroked his goatee with his hand, smiled and greeted Hou Cheng and other personal guards, limped up to Xu Yi, bowed and saluted Xu Yi: "See my lord for humble duties! "

Seeing his awkward walking posture, Xu Yi thought it was a little funny. He knew that he was a literati, and he was no match for those who practiced martial arts like himself. On this long-distance raid on Dading Mansion, Ma Zhe suffered a lot in order to keep up with his army. It was a lot of suffering. In order not to fall off the horse, he had his legs tied to the horse with a rope, and he managed to bump all the way to the outside of Dadingfu city. He didn't throw it on the road and was carried over. However, the saddle had scuffed his skin to pieces, and almost tore his vitals. After dismounting, he could hardly walk. After this day, although he was treated, he had to spread his legs when he walked. How ugly is ugly.

But from the time he got to know Ma Zhe, Xu Yi knew that this guy was a person with some real skills, with a very vicious vision and a lot of tricks, so he was very caring and polite to him, so he quickly asked Hou Cheng to arrange a meeting for Ma Zhe. Soft stool, let him sit down and talk, saving him from standing there with his legs spread out, provoking himself to pay attention to his crotch, distracting and affecting thinking.

Ma Zhe didn't refuse, and with the support of the guards, he slowly sat on the soft stool. After touching the soft stool with his worn-out buttocks, he grinned his teeth in pain again, and gasped for air for a long time Neither sit still.

"Forget it! Let's get a soft couch for Candidate Ma and talk on his stomach!" Seeing Ma Zhe's painful expression, Xu Yi was both funny and distressed, so he gave orders to Hou Cheng.

"Oh, don't dare! My lord is a prince now, how dare I lie down and talk to my lord? I'll just stand!" Ma Zhe hurriedly said politely.

"Forget it! My Ma Gaoshen, don't hold back, I don't have so many stinky rules, you'd better lie on your stomach and be more comfortable! I still expect you to give me more ideas!" Xu Yi laughed. , Not long after that, Hou Cheng asked someone to get a small soft couch from the back of the hall, and placed it on the main hall.

So a ridiculous scene appeared in the hall. Ma Zhe lay on the soft couch with his head up, talking to Xu Yi who was sitting in front of him, which made a group of guards want to laugh but didn't dare to laugh, and they blushed Thick neck.

Xu Yi waved to the guards and said, "Go down, I think you will suffocate yourself to death if you hold back any longer! I am safe here, Mr. Ma probably won't threaten me now! Hehe!"

So a group of guards immediately bowed to receive the order, ran outside the hall and burst out laughing.

"My lord, are you satisfied with occupying Dading Mansion now?" Ma Zhe asked Xu Yi, lying on the soft couch, looking up.

As soon as Xu Yi heard Ma Zhe's words, he knew there was something in his words, so he thought for a while and said, "That's not true. After all, we haven't gained the advantage yet. It's just a successful sneak attack. Once Jin Guo reacts, the army will Gathering in Dading Mansion, we will be in trouble when the time comes!"

"Then what is my lord going to do next?" Ma Zhe asked Xu Yi.

Hearing Ma Zhe's question, Xu Yi really hesitated. Originally, his plan was to capture Dading Mansion, wipe it all out, and then turn around and lay an ambush on the road, kill Zongfu's soldiers and horses, and attack along the way. Jin Guozhou County, when Zongwang's army retreated back to attack him, retreated to Jinzhou, where he took the initiative, relying on Jinzhou to advance, attack, retreat and defend, at worst he would give up Jinzhou City and go back to Liaodong.

But when he got here, he was only happy in the face of such a rich harvest. After being asked by Ma Zhe, he hesitated a little. The situation in the plan was not like this. It was effortless, not a single soldier or horse was damaged, all the strength brought was there, what made him even more unexpected was that the supplies here were so rich, even if he wanted to loot and leave Dading Mansion, he would not He would not be reconciled to leaving such a large capacity to the Jinren. In the end, he could only burn so many things, but seeing such a majestic and majestic city, if it was destroyed by his hands now, he did not want to do it. Such a thing, no matter what, this city is a rich cultural heritage left by the Liao Dynasty to the Chinese descendants, and even the history of China. It is undoubtedly a crime to destroy it for one's own selfishness.

After being reminded by Ma Zhe now, Xu Yi was really embarrassed.

"This... this... I haven't thought it through yet!" Xu Yi replied to Ma Zhe without hiding his thoughts.

"Hehe! In fact, in the eyes of the lord, the Dading Mansion is already worthless. It would be a pity to discard it if it is tasteless to eat!" Ma Zhe shook his head and laughed.

Xu Yi thought about Ma Zhe's words, and he really had this kind of taste. He looked down at Ma Zhe's expression, and he knew that this fellow had a new idea, so he said with a smile: "You bastard, you have something to say. Just say it directly, why are you going around the bend?"

Then Ma Zhe bared his teeth and hurriedly apologized, and then said: "Actually, we have a very good opportunity right now to make Jin Guo suffer a bigger loss. If we do well, it is not bad for Jin Guo to recover from the fall It is possible, maybe this time it will really kill Dajin Kingdom!"

As soon as Xu Yi heard it, he immediately became interested, so he quickly pulled his chair, leaned in front of Ma Zhe, and asked him, "What should I do? Tell me quickly!"

Ma Zhe shook his head and said: "This time I came to Dading Mansion, in fact, the biggest gain of my lord is not the money and things in the city. Does my lord know what it is?"

Xu Yi shook his head impatiently and urged: "If you have something to say, speak it out quickly, squeeze the toothpaste bit by bit, are you looking for a hit?"

"What is toothpaste?" Ma Zhe asked immediately.

"%￥#&...%￥! Stop talking nonsense, and quickly talk about your solution!" Several black lines were drawn on Xu Yi's forehead.

"My minister obeys! Hehe!" Ma Zhe lay on the soft couch, kowtowed, and said that this minister obeyed.

Xu Yi was very sensitive to this word, and his heart skipped a beat, but this was not the time to be entangled in this matter, so he waved his hand and said nothing, telling Ma Zhe to speak quickly.

"Actually, our biggest gain in capturing Dading Mansion this time is that we found that the people here are useful! If it weren't for the people in the city, then even if we really captured Dading Mansion, we would probably have to pay a considerable price. Now I'm afraid it's impossible to stabilize the situation in the city. At most, it's just a matter of looting, burning this place, and then returning to Jinzhou City!
But the current situation is a hundred times better than we originally expected. The people's hearts are not on the side of the Jinren, but completely on our side. This is what the lord can use. It's an unwise move, the lord can take advantage of the people's hearts and abundant material reserves here, and do a big job here! Ma Zhe's expression returned to seriousness, and he looked at Xu Yi and said.

"You mean we won't be able to defend the city if we don't leave Dading Mansion?" Xu Yi was startled, and hurriedly asked: "But here is more than two hundred miles away from the sea, and there is only less than two thousand miles in Jinzhou City. For the rest of us, all the prefectures, counties and towns in the middle are not in our hands. If the Jin soldiers attack in a large scale, we will be besieged in Dading Mansion, and this place will become a lonely city by then, and there are not many soldiers behind us. Support us! If that time comes, won't we be in danger?" Xu Yi immediately said the danger of doing so.

"Hehe! What the lord said is good, but the lord only sees it and has lost the other! On the surface, it seems very dangerous to do so, but it is not!

My lord, think about it, can the Jin army really attack aggressively now?Now the Zongwang army is fighting fiercely with the Song army in the south, and the situation is not good for the Jin people. Although the Song army is weak, it is expensive because of its huge number, and the officials of the court seem to be determined to After regaining their homeland, the morale of the Song army was very high. In a short period of time, although they may not be able to achieve major results, they are still at a disadvantage on the surface, with more defeats and fewer victories!
But Weichen found that this time the Jin army was not as powerful as it was during the previous two invasions to the south. Without the cooperation of the Zonghan army on the western front, their strength was greatly reduced, and they occupied many cities. The strength of Zongwang's army was greatly dispersed, and Zongwang's army was exhausted. They could no longer concentrate their forces and drive straight into the territory of Song Dynasty as in the previous two times. Therefore, Zongwang has now fallen into the quagmire in essence. The army under Zongwang's command was contained, making it difficult for them to retreat from the south line to the north!

As for General Yang in Liaoyang Mansion, he basically restrained the main force of the northern Jin people in Liaoyang Mansion, and General Diao was not idle in Gaizhou. It can be said that their actions have held back the northern army of the Jin people, preventing the soldiers and horses from the north of the Jin people from coming here in a short time, and putting the Jin people in a dilemma. General Yang and the others will never miss such a good opportunity, and they will definitely send troops immediately to attack Tangzhou, Shenzhou and other places. In this way, the Jin people have to take into account their northern hinterland and dare not take it lightly. A large army was dispatched to attack Dading Mansion, so Zonghan's army in the north is not a concern right now! ..."
