Datang: Valkyrie chat group

During the Northern Song Dynasty, five treacherous ministers appeared in the court, namely: Wang Qinruo, Ding Wei, Lin Te, Chen Pengnian, and Liu Cheng. These five people were called "Five Ghosts".

Among them, Wang Qinruo and Ding Wei are the most famous, and their officials reached the high positions of prime ministers.

As the two people's words sounded 990 times, on the side of the civil servant camp, everyone was impassioned and uttered nonsense.

Looking at the generals camp, everyone looked sullen, but no one spoke out to refute.

The Great Song Dynasty emphasized civility over military affairs, advocated literati to rule the army, and strictly prohibited military personnel from intervening in politics. The army implemented the reform law, regularly changed defenses, and the generals were often transferred, which greatly weakened the power in the hands of the generals. Therefore, the entire court was almost a monopoly of civil servants.

"Report..."

Just as he was talking endlessly in the court hall, a long whistle sounded.

Then, officials of the Privy Council came in with a secret letter in hand.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, there is news from the north that the 3 troops of our Dynasty and the Daming Mansion's army encountered each other in Puyang. The [-] troops were wiped out, and the main general Gao Zhen was beheaded."

The official walked to the center of the hall and spoke.

Before the words fell, the civil servants who were filled with righteous indignation suddenly stopped and stood there, bewildered.

quiet.

In the entire hall, there was an instant, deathly silence.

First, [-] troops going north were completely wiped out, and then another [-] troops were wiped out. What kind of monsters and ghosts are this troops going south?

"This...it's impossible"

Wang Qinruo reacted first and said loudly.

They are very clear about the army going south, the elite Song army under Mu Guiying.

At the beginning, 10 people were wiped out, and they didn't know what happened. Now, another 3 people were wiped out.

how can that be.

"Prince Wang, the secret letter from the Privy Council outside Beijing should not be wrong."

The official turned his head and said again.

"Then what are the [-] cavalrymen who are heading towards the capital now?

Could it be that Gao Zhen and his soldiers all committed suicide!"

Wang Qinruo said loudly.

No one could answer this question for him.

Without his position, no one can understand what kind of fear those [-] Song troops faced.

In that battle, the [-] Song Army still had this slight advantage in numbers, but when the [-] cavalry charged, the killing intent seemed to freeze the air.

Combat power is not at the same level, and after the increase and weakening of the team battle skills in Tang Feng's hands, those Song troops whose combat power was not strong in the first place, their will was broken, and they couldn't afford to fight. meaning.

It can be said that Tang Feng and others did not encounter decent resistance.

And beheaded those [-]

The Song army, the cavalry under his command, only lost more than a thousand men.

"Dear dear ministers, the rebel army is approaching, so we should find a solution as soon as possible."

Song Zhenzong Zhao Heng, who was sitting on the throne, spoke.

This... the third emperor of the Northern Song Dynasty, at the very beginning, knew how to appoint talents and be diligent in political affairs, but when the Liao Kingdom began to go south and invaded the Central Plains, his cowardice was undoubtedly revealed. For this reason, listen to Xiao People slander, make treacherous officials in power, and bring disaster to the court.

In history, the famous "Chanyuan Alliance"

, Against all odds, signed with the Liao State.

When the battle situation was overwhelming, because of fear of the momentum of the Liao Kingdom, they finally stopped fighting and paid 30 taels of silver and 20 bolts of silk to the Liao Kingdom every year in exchange for peace between the two countries. A magical king.

Historians of later generations have mixed opinions on this covenant.

Some believe that the Chanyuan Alliance ended the more than [-] years of war between Song and Liao, avoided the excessive corvee and the pressure of court taxation caused by the heavy military garrison for many years, and exchanged at a very small price what was difficult to obtain in the war. However, there is one thing that cannot be denied. This is because the weakness in the bones of the emperor at the top made the blood in the bones of the Han nation gradually die out. In the end, it was established by Jurchen The Golden Kingdom defeated.

"Your Majesty, there are still [-] forbidden troops in Bianjing City, which may be used."

Zuoxiang Wang Qinruo looked at the king above, cupped his hands, and said.

"The rebel army is coming fiercely. They have wiped out more than [-] troops in our dynasty. There are only [-] forbidden troops. Can they hold Bianjing?"

Zhao Heng asked again.

At this moment, this...king was extremely terrified in his heart.

He has a weak temperament, but now, knowing that the army led by Tang Feng has killed more than [-] people, he is even more disturbed.

"Returning to Your Majesty, the [-] forbidden troops are not going out of the city to fight. As long as the rebels are held back by relying on the danger of Bianjing, the troops stationed at the border will definitely be wiped out when they return to Beijing."

Wang Qinruo said again.

Song Zhenzong Zhao Heng just nodded when he heard the words.

He's weak-tempered, but not a military idiot.

According to the news that came back, the rebels who went south this time only had [-] cavalry.

On the open field, cavalry may have a great advantage, but in siege battles, galloping horses can play very little role.

It is not impossible for [-] forbidden troops to defend Bianjing.

At the time of life and death, the efficiency of the operation of the huge organization of the Song Dynasty has reached an unprecedented height.

When Tang Feng's soldiers arrived at the city of Bianjing, on the towering city wall, a guard was ready to fight.

Looking at the Song army who was waiting strictly on the city wall, Tang Feng showed a disdainful smile.

No matter how many times the battlefield has been fought, he still can't understand what the big bosses in Bianjing are up to, but will the truth be what they want!

Chapter 745: The capital, the final battle

"The whole army is ready to attack."

Looking at the city in front of him, Tang Feng gave an order.

"General, we only have [-] cavalry, and we don't have any siege equipment. Are we going to attack like this?"

Beside Tang Feng, a military commander asked with some puzzlement.

"kindness."

Tang Feng didn't turn his head back, and gave a light acknowledgment.

As the words fell, the generals beside him, including the cavalry troops behind, looked at the towering city wall and the heavily armed guards on the city wall, and some inexplicable expressions appeared on those resolute faces. .

No matter how hard they racked their brains, they couldn't figure out how to take down this majestic city with only [-] cavalry under the current circumstances.

Not to mention that there are heavily armed Imperial Army on the city wall, even if there is no Imperial Army, they are helpless if they just put this tortoise-like city in front of their eyes.

Could it be that it is impossible to fly up.

If it is an ordinary small earthen city, people with excellent skills can still climb up without the help of siege equipment. However, this is Bianjing City! This is the capital of Song Dynasty. The city wall is so high that it is easy to defend and difficult to defend. To attack, if you want to attack from the outside, at least......, you need to have a force several times more than the garrison, and, if the siege equipment is complete, it will take several days. , it is possible to remove it.

Now, one does not have a force several times larger than the garrison, and two does not have any siege equipment, so why should it be taken down.

If there is an internal response in the city, the internal response should be combined with the external, and the city gate will be opened, so that they can drive straight in.

Is this possible? As the capital of the Great Song Dynasty, Bianjing was besieged, and the entire Great Song court must be in turmoil. Under such circumstances, the gates of the city are important, and there will be internal responses from our own side! Everyone really dare not think about it.

However, when they saw the resolute look of their own master, it was impossible, there was something wrong with it.

Everyone put these... messy thoughts behind them, and waited quietly, and the master will launch an attack order.

From their point of view, since Tang Feng wanted to rely on [-] cavalry to attack the city, he had a plan in his mind. Although they couldn't think of any way, after the hearty two battles, they had nothing to do with... Tang Feng, except ......Admiration is unconditional trust.

What's more, no one would think that Tang Feng led them all the way here, and in the end, they died in vain.

Tang Feng naturally had no idea what these people were thinking.

He came here to help Mu Guiying change the status quo and change the history of the Great Song Dynasty. As for other things, he doesn't care about them.

It is true that he can't fly this city, and there is no internal support for him in Bianjing City, but he has a method that has been tried and tested and is very effective.

At dusk, the sun sets.

The two armies are facing each other.

On the city wall of Bianjing, [-] cavalrymen lined up neatly, waiting quietly for the final order to attack.

At the same time, on the towering city wall, many eyes stared at the cavalry unit not far from the front and bottom of the city, and sneered.

Among them, there are the generals of the imperial army, and some of the imperial court, "Hmph, even if their killing intent is overwhelming, they are not dumbfounded in the face of this dangerous city."

A commander of the forbidden army snorted coldly and said disdainfully.

"Lord Wang, you can go back to the palace, the last general will definitely guard the capital, and will not give these... rebellious officials and thieves any chance."

Then, the commander of the imperial army turned his head and said to the middle-aged man in official robes.

"Well... thank you General Cao."

The official looked at the cavalry team standing there again, nodded and said.

As an important minister in the court, although he is not a general on the battlefield, he is not completely incomprehensible in military affairs.

He could see that it was only [-] cavalry, and it was difficult to capture the capital! It was difficult to go to the sky! After that, he did not stay here any longer, and prepared to return to the palace, and to His Majesty in the Daqing Palace, there was another The big guys reply to the message.

& nbs

p;As soon as he stepped down the wall, he heard a loud voice.

"war!"

The cold iron gun in Tang Feng's hand: He raised it high, and shouted with that deep voice.

"war!"

"war!"

"war!"

Just as Tang Feng's words fell, the [-] cavalry behind him resounded loudly.

Thousands of people roared together, the scene was very spectacular, the loud voice soared into the sky, and could be heard clearly in the whole Bianjing city.

The guards on the city wall couldn't help trembling when they heard the murderous words.

Afterwards, Tang Feng took the lead and charged towards Bianjing City in the distance. At the same time, the [-] cavalry behind him followed closely behind.

Twenty thousand war horses stepped on the ground and charged forward.

The neighing of war horses... and the sound of rumbling hooves resounded through the heaven and earth.

city ​​wall.

The general of the Forbidden Army surnamed Cao looked at the cavalry troop rushing from a distance, his face was a little confused.

He never imagined that the [-] cavalry would attack the capital in such a way.

...... He does not deny that the collective charge of [-] cavalry is extremely lethal, but that is only when the two sides are fighting on the open field. , Facing a city to charge, this is something normal people can do. He really can't imagine why this...the chief of the cavalry would do such a stupid thing.

"Since you are sincerely looking for death, I will fulfill you."

Although he didn't understand it, he was happy to see this kind of thing happen.

This team went from north to south, annihilating more than [-] troops of Song Dynasty along the way. If he can annihilate them here, it must be a great contribution.

At that time, fame, fortune, and inexhaustible glory and wealth will fall on him.

Thinking of this, looking at the cavalry team below the city, he felt a little pleasing to the eye, as if, these... cavalrymen in charge had become the qualifications for his promotion.

Just as he was thinking this way, the cavalry team under the city wall had already approached within a hundred meters of the city wall.

"shoot."

Tang Feng rushed to the front and shouted loudly.

Following Tang Feng's roar, the charging cavalry raised their bows and arrows one after another, and shot at the top of the city.

The dense arrows detached from the bowstring, crossed the sky, and landed on the top of the city accurately.

"Give Ben will kill them all."

The general of the imperial army looked at the approaching cavalry and roared.
