One Piece of Song Dynasty

On the th day of the first lunar month, Zongwang sent someone to send a letter of thanks to Qinzong of the Song Dynasty: "The Prince of Jin Dynasty, Gan Labu, the envoy of the capital management, would like to express his gratitude to the Emperor of the Song Dynasty: I hereby inherit the words of the imperial treasure, as a repayment for every birthday, Envoys were sent on Holy Days and Zhengdan Days, with the ritual of asking for letters, and were given pearls, jade pieces, and other items. They were so kind and kind. How could they say something good and say that the alliance was established? They went out of their way to deal with it. Since then, there has been a lot of fear. This reflects the emperor's wisdom. Arbitrary, happiness will be restored, the country will be in peace forever, and all living beings will be happy. Ganlabu will carry out the orders declared by the emperor of this dynasty. He will be gracious and obedient to the Holy Creation, and will do whatever he wants. He will always remember this, and it is hard to live up to his will. I only hope that the two dynasties will maintain their faith and righteousness for a long time. Solid harmony is achieved, the subordinates are obedient to human feelings, and the superiors are in harmony with God's will. Now that we are in the same family, we are still worried that the people will be hindered from farming, so we ask for cattle, stop begging, and beg to take care of them. Xiangrong Chunlu, increase the wealth Chen Jin. Thank you very much."

On the th day of the first lunar month, Emperor Qinzong of the Song Dynasty appointed Lu Yundi, Minister of the Ministry of War, as the Privy Council member who signed the letter. He sent him out of the city to Taiyuan Mansion with the imperial edict to inform the guards Zhang Xiaochun and Wang Zhen that the imperial court had decided to cede Taiyuan Mansion to Daijin and let them Stop resisting and don't "make trouble for yourself". The full text of the edict is as follows: "Edict to the guardian of Taiyuan Prefecture: Zhongshan, Hejian, Taiyuan Prefecture and the counties and towns to the north and the state army to the north have already agreed in the oath to combine the delivery and Daijin affairs. Yesterday, Daijin summoned the imperial court Na rebelled, and Youyu swore an oath, so he raised a large army to the capital. He attached great importance to the country, and the stakes were very high, so he cut off the three prefectures in order to seek a happy alliance, and put aside the worries of war and revolution, so as to consolidate the good relationship between the two dynasties. His fangs If they don't go to the same places, they will be exchanged and exchanged, and the oath will be implemented in accordance with the oath. If the state army fails to obey, I will ask for this edict to be circulated throughout the country, and everyone will comply with the instructions. If the mother refuses to disobey, it will bring trouble to herself.

The two dynasties were bordering each other, and they were from the same family. Each lived in peace, and they maintained trust and harmony forever. Among them, Shan, Hejian, and Taiyuan prefectures are all counties and towns, as well as the military officers in the northern states who are appointed as temporary officers. Those who are not native or sent from the mainland are not included in the delivery.

Now I am sending you the ministers of the imperial court, bachelors of the Zizheng Palace, ministers of the Privy Council with signatures, Chong Shenxiao, Yuqing, the deputy envoys of Wanshou Palace, the founding uncle of Wen'an County, households in the city, households in the real seal, and a purple gold fish bag road permission. The imperial edict was promulgated by Di Fu, and he consulted with you and his ministers to reflect on his thoughts. Therefore, this is the edict, and I would like to know it. Chunxuan Qing and others are all in peace, and there are not many people who can send letters. "

This edict to cede territory was detained by Li Gang for several days, but finally Song Qinzong arranged for someone to send it out.

At this time, Taiyuan City was still in the hands of Zhang Xiaochun, the prefect of Taiyuan, and Wang Zhen, the deputy governor. It has been nearly a month since the Jin army besieged Taiyuan City on December last year. However, the soldiers and civilians of Taiyuan City worked together to resist the enemy and fight to the death, but the city still stood firm.

The strategic deployment of the Jin Army's West Route Army is that after capturing Taiyuan, the army will quickly move towards Tokyo, meet up with the East Route Army under the city of Tokyo, and then launch a general attack on Tokyo City together. At the same time, in order to block the Northwestern Army of the Song Dynasty, which was the only one that could compete with the Jin Army, and to prevent Emperor Zhao and Song from fleeing to Shu, the West Route Army also wanted to capture Luoyang City and gain control of this strategic location in the Central Plains. But now, Taiyuan City cannot be captured for a long time, which greatly slows down the march of the West Route Army.

Zong Han felt that if this continued, he might miss the chance of fighting, so he decided to leave his general Yin Shuke to continue the siege of Taiyuan, while he led his army to gallop south.

Since the martial law in Tokyo City, Kaifeng Prefecture has established multiple patrol teams to patrol the city day and night in order to strengthen vigilance, maintain public order, and prevent civil unrest. On the seventeenth day of the first lunar month, during a routine inspection, the patrol team discovered a man pushing a monocycle walking on the street. They came forward to interrogate him and found out that the man's accent was not local, but that he was from Yanjing. When he opened the car and inspected it, he found that "all of it contained weapons." So he concluded that this was the work of the Jin people lurking in the city, and arrested him.

After the news spread, Tokyo citizens took action one after another, looking for and arresting the perpetrators, which was a great success. "Some people with short hair and dark faces were accidentally beaten," and some were even beaten to death. Some idle people took the opportunity to do evil and rob passers-by, saying that they were the work of a golden man. If he is not convinced, he will be immediately sent to Kaifeng Mansion for examination and asked to find out what is right and wrong. If he is not careful, he will be released on the spot. Those who were caught by mistake will not be punished.

When the Song Dynasty first regained Yanjing, many people from Yanjing came to Tokyo to settle in Tokyo. "The soldiers and civilians had all kinds of skills, and they lived in the streets and alleys, just like the Han people." Now, the soldiers and civilians in the capital generally believe that these people from Yanjing They were all carefully crafted by the Jin people, so they were all captured and sent to Kaifeng Mansion. There were probably hundreds of them. The Kaifeng Prefecture had no choice but to accept them all, but after examination and screening, they were found to be groundless, so they were released. The Kaifeng Prefecture found that the phenomenon of random arrests was becoming more and more serious, causing people to panic and was not conducive to the stability of the capital, so they issued a list to strictly prohibit it.

Starting from the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the troops of King Qin from all directions gradually arrived outside the city. Emperor Qinzong of the Song Dynasty ordered Li Gang and the Xingying Division to arrange for them. Li Gang placed these tens of thousands of people around the capital and established effective organizational structures. "They were given food and equipment, and they set foot on the stronghold and formed a team. They worked hard day and night and took no less rest."

On the eighteenth day of the first lunar month, the commander Ma Zhong led the soldiers recruited from the west of Beijing to the city. Outside Shuntian Gate, he happened to meet a group of Jin soldiers. Ma Zhong led his army to "take advantage of the situation to attack them and kill many people." On this day, about cavalrymen, led by Fan Qiong, came from Jingdong. They camped beside the horse prison.

King Qin's troops continued to gather, and "the king's troops were slightly roused." The Jin people began to be afraid of the Song army, and "the cavalry did not dare to step aside." Before that, "the Jin people were very arrogant and roamed all the towns, acting as if no one else was around. They disarmed their armor and dismounted their saddles, saying that they had no enemies." Since then, the order in the south of the capital city has been relatively stable, and the people can live in peace.

On the eighteenth day of the first lunar month, heavy snow fell, the north wind howled, the temperature dropped suddenly, and the capital was extremely cold. Since the seventh day of the first lunar month, the capital has been besieged by the Jin army. The city gates have been closed for ten days. There is a serious shortage of food in the city, and prices are more than twice as expensive as usual. "The poor people have no food to eat, and the cold and starving people borrow it from each other."

Facing the current situation, Song Qinzong was worried. He didn't know how long the capital could sustain it if he persisted like this. After discussing with Li Bangyan and others, he sent envoys out of the city to visit the Jin army. The so-called condolences are just superficial remarks, and their real purpose is to find out whether the Jin army has any signs of withdrawal. Emperor Qinzong of the Song Dynasty asked an envoy to send a letter to Zong Wang. The letter said: "The Emperor of the Song Dynasty sent a message to the Emperor of the Jin Dynasty, Prince Lang Jun: I recommended him to be the envoy, and I wrote a special poem. He read it over and over again, thinking deeply and diligently. Comparators The alliance has been restored, the troops have rested, and the people have settled down. They have dealt with each other deeply. They are deeply aware of Ji's instructions. They will implement them in accordance with the orders of the Emperor of Jin Dynasty. They are gracious and obedient to the sacred creation. They have done everything they have done. They are forgiving and generous. They show their humility and virtue. They are more sincere. Thinking of the important work of farming, I stopped asking for cattle. I am sincere and sincere, and the righteousness is the same. It should be passed on to the endless, and I will always think it is good. The law of spring is still cold, but it is precious and stingy. I am sincere and white. I also give it. One hundred taels of agarwood, ten flower rhinoceros wine plates, two tortoiseshell wine bottles, and a pair of flower rhinoceros infusion bowls."
