One Piece of Song Dynasty

Chapter 291 The Jin Kingdom decided to attack the Song Dynasty

Nie Shan once served as the governor of Kaifeng. Song Huizong knew that this man had a lot of character and "acted fiercely". Soon, Emperor Huizong of the Song Dynasty accepted Cai You's suggestion and issued an edict to restore Nie Shan to his position as Chao Sanlang and ordered him to "take a post to go to the palace."

At this time, Ma Kuo was still serving in Baozhou. According to detective reports, Zong Han had returned to Yunzhong and was organizing forces to repair the city defenses in Feihu County and Lingqiu County. Ma Kuo was very alert. He immediately wrote to Tong Guan to report the situation and suggested quickly deploying Shaanxi's elite troops to garrison Zhongshan Prefecture and Zhending Prefecture, and select wise and brave generals to guard the Yizhou area to prevent the Jin army from suddenly launching a southward invasion.

Tong Guan and Cai You did not pay attention to Ma Kuo's letter. They believed that the Jin Kingdom had just been established and the domestic situation was still unstable. At this time, it was impossible for the Jin people to risk sending troops south. The Jin soldiers were creating a tense atmosphere on the border. , just to extort more money from the Song Dynasty, they felt there was no need to report to Song Huizong.

Emperor Huizong of the Song Dynasty made Tong Guan the king of the county and promoted Cai You to the Taibao. The purpose was to let them take on the responsibility of border defense in the northern part of the Song Dynasty. Song Huizong may have felt that after making such an arrangement, he could sit back and relax. However, at this moment, the elites of the Jin Kingdom far away in the northeast are secretly planning to raise their troops to move south.

After Emperor Tianzuo was captured, Zong Han kept him imprisoned in Yunzhong. In April of the seventh year of Xuanhe, Emperor Taizong of the Jin Dynasty ordered Zonghan to send someone to escort Emperor Tianzuo to Shangjing. Considering the long journey, Zonghan sent his uncle Oru to escort him personally in order to ensure safety. After more than four months of long journey, Emperor Tianzuo finally arrived in the Kingdom of Jin on the banks of the Lailiu River in the northeast. He was first taken to Taizu Temple to offer sacrifices to Jin Taizu.

According to the records of Jin Dynasty: "There was no ancestral temple in the early Jin Dynasty. In September of the seventh year of Tianfu, in 1123, the great ancestor was buried in the southwest of the palace city of Shangjing, and Ning Temple was built on the mausoleum." "Ning Temple" is also known as "Dazu Temple", or "Aguda Temple" is the first burial place of Wanyan Aguda, Emperor Taizu of the Jin Dynasty. It is less than meters away from Huining Mansion. This is the first large-scale temple in the Jin Kingdom. It is large in scale and magnificent. Some major events in the Jin Kingdom are held in front of the mausoleum. When the emperor ascended the throne, went on patrol or encountered war, or other major events, he would come to Taizu Temple to offer sacrifices, which the Jin people called "the Temple of Complaint".

After paying homage to Jin Taizu, Emperor Tianzuo was escorted to the Imperial City Hall of Huining Prefecture to pay homage to Jin Taizong Wanyan Sheng. Here, Emperor Tianzuo said: "Yelü Yanxi, the surrender minister of the Liao Dynasty, bows down with his ax and axe, bows down to the Kingdom of Jin, and lies down to await his sin." I heard that people are not afraid of their bravery, but if they are afraid of it, they will be violent. Fu Nianchen's ancestors established a foundation of two hundred years, inherited the throne from heaven, passed on from descendants to descendants, worshiped God in the suburbs, and celebrated internally and externally. Unexpectedly, a humble minister with a cold bone and a weak life has no virtue to praise. He cannot spend this long night in fear, ignoring his faults and offending taboos. If he encounters the scorching sun in the morning frost, or his boat encounters the angry waves, all the evil will compete with each other, and the slanders will rise in droves. Therefore, I am ashamed of my virtue, arouse the wrath of the Holy Spirit, and turn around to join the army. I am as worried as if I were sitting on a rafter. When Gai heard about Zhi Dao's release, he was so proud and proud that he was like a Xin'an sighing, and he was innocent. Remembering the benevolence and kindness of the Emperor of Han, his birth was a blessing; he ridiculed Xiang Yu for his evil deeds, and ridiculed him to avoid eventual injury. What I sincerely ask for is to keep the evil way and avoid the disaster of Xin'an. When it comes, I will tremble. I will look up to the saints and be wise, and I will not speak until I die.

After reading the letter of surrender, Emperor Taizong of the Jin Dynasty issued an edict to confer Emperor Tianzuo as the King of Haibin and "send him to Changbai Shandong to build a house and live there."

Emperor Tianzuo probably didn't expect that his end would be so miserable. However, Yelu Dashi, who once urged him not to come out and wait for action, later actually founded the Western Liao Empire, a powerful Central Asian power.

At the beginning, after Yelu Dashi led cavalry to leave Jiashan, he traveled north for three days, crossed the black water Ejina River, and paid a visit to Baidaledaxianggun Chongwulu. Chongwulu donated horses, camels, and several sheep. Yelu Dashi then "went west to Hatun City, which is now Urumqi City, Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, and stationed in the Beiting Governor's Office, which is now Jimusar County, Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region. He met the kings of the seven prefectures and eighteen tribes in the west, and said: "My ancestors struggled to start a business, and for nine generations, Lord, two hundred calendar years. Jin used his vassals to force my country, crippled my common people, massacred my prefectures, and made my Emperor Tianzuo fall into the dust. I am heartbroken day and night. I am now marching westward with righteousness, attacking my enemies, and regaining my territory. However, all the common people also wanted to work together to save the emperor and father and help the people in distress, so they got more than elite soldiers. So they appointed officials, set up platoons of armor, equipped with weapons and weapons, sacrificed green oxen and white horses to the ancestors of heaven and earth, and formed a whole brigade. West."

Yelu Dashi climbed over the Tianshan Mountains all the way to the west, and later opened up a new world in Central Asia. But for the Kingdom of Jin, the Yelu Dashi did not yet pose a serious threat at this time.

At this time, Zong Wang and Zong Han, who had heavy troops in hand, suggested to Jin Taizong that they send troops south to attack the Song Dynasty. Frontline generals such as Yan Mu and Oru also expressed their support.

The first advocate of the attack on the Song Dynasty was Zong Wang. He said to Jin Taizong: "The Song people will not give the residence registration if they ask for it, and I heard that Tong Guan and Guo Yaoshi were in charge of the army in Yanshan. If you don't take the lead, you may be in trouble later." Taizong of the Jin Dynasty then issued an edict to There was a commander who ordered them to "select men who are good at shooting and brave enough to prepare for the Song Dynasty."

The reason why Zong Wang proposed to go south to attack the Song Dynasty is said to have a lot to do with Liu Yanzong and other Han officials. After the Song Dynasty took over Yanjing, it implemented the "official exchange" policy and transferred a large number of Han officials from the Liao Kingdom who were originally serving in various states and counties to serve in the interior. These Han officials "first came from the imperial court in Yanshan, then from the imperial court in Yanshan, and then from the Xuanfu Division in Taiyuan in Yanshan. They were in trouble one after another, and the officials and officials were frustrated. They could not be eliminated for many years. This Cao Cao resented that, He often fled back to Pingzhou and reported the truth and falsehood of the capital to Liu Yanzong one by one. Yanzong then taught the Jin people to have a glimpse of China." This is what Xu Cai, a man of the Song Dynasty, said in the Chronicle of the Fall of Yan at that time.

At this time, Liu Yanzong served as Tongzhongshu's Pingzhangshi and Privy Councilor, and was also appointed as a minister to assist Zongwang in commanding the Nanjing Road army and governing Nanjing. Zong Wang trusted Liu Yanzong very much and entrusted Liu Yanzong to rule on all matters in prefectures and counties.

Shangjing was the political center of the Jin Kingdom at that time. In addition, the Jin people also had two military and political centers in the northeast and northwest of the Song Dynasty, forming two military and political groups. In these two places, there are many counselors and generals gathered. One is centered on Pingzhou and is presided over by Zong Wang. It controls the strategic locations around Ping, Ying and Luan in Guan Nei. It has elite soldiers and generals, and the generals Yan Mu and Ta Lan are stationed here. Yan's mother was the half-brother of Emperor Taizong of the Jin Dynasty, and was the deputy governor of Nanjing Road at that time. Talan was Wanyanchang, the son of Wanyanying, the uncle of Jin Taizong. He was the military commander of the Sixth Route of Xi and was responsible for the affairs of Xi.

The other one is centered on Datong, Xijing, presided over by Zong Han, and controls Shanxi and the northwest region. Oru and Xiyin are deputy commanders, and the generals Lou Shi and Yinshu can be stationed here. Oru was the son of Jin Taizong's uncle Kaizhe, the younger brother of Sa Gai, and the uncle of Zong Han. Xiyin is the son of the noble Huandu, the actual creator of Jurchen writing, and has always been an assistant to Zong Han. The Lou family fought bravely and repeatedly performed extraordinary feats. For capturing Emperor Tianzuo, he was awarded the "Iron Certificate" by Emperor Taizong of Jin Dynasty: only treason will not be pardoned, and the rest of the crimes will not be questioned; Yin Shu not only has military talent, but also has political foresight; of course Li Xin's two ace secret agents Fan Wen and Wang Xiu also work under Zong Han. Fan and Wang are now in charge of all the clerical work of Zong Han's department. Their official positions have also been determined, and they will be in charge of the future Jin Kingdom. The Prosecution Department is responsible for checking whether the six official documents are legal and whether there are any omissions. l0ns3v3
