[As we mentioned earlier, after Jin Xuanzong fled south, faced with the Southern Song Dynasty's move to cut off the Sui coins, he and a group of ministers who were civilized, Tian and Wuxi made a whimsical plan to "make up for the losses in the north and make up for the losses in the south", hoping to "make up for the losses in the north." "Promote peace through war", forcing the Southern Song Dynasty to surrender obediently.

But as the saying goes, dragons look for dragons and tigers look for tigers, and toads look for crickets. If your Kingdom of Jin is really so brave and invincible, why don't you go to Mongolia to show your prestige?

Even though the Jin Kingdom took the lead in the surprise attack, under the strict defense of the Southern Song Dynasty, they still did not take advantage of it. They were even defeated by the Southern Song Dynasty who joined forces with the rebels who suddenly came out.

Within two years, Jin Xuanzong died. Jin Aizong, who came to power, faced a situation where he was besieged on all sides and was forced to start reforming the military system.

The most famous one is a tough soldier:

Those who take the Heshuo route back to He, Naiman, Qiang, Hun, and the Central Plains and are captured to escape their crimes and come back to the Predators to Lingtu, regardless of whether they have saddles and horses or whether they can translate the language, they will be given a monthly salary three times that of a regular soldier, and they will be awarded an officer and a horse age. Reward Yan, named Zhongxiaojun.

For such an elite soldier, there is no problem in terms of bravery, but how to enforce orders and prohibitions is a problem.

It happened that at that time, Monk Chen was unwilling to show favoritism when handling military affairs. As a result, he was falsely accused of killing someone out of resentment and was imprisoned for a year and a half.

Emperor Aizong of the Jin Dynasty knew that Monk Chen was loyal and brave, so after Monk Chen's brother Wanyan Ding died of illness, he fished him out of prison in the name of meritorious service and took advantage of his brother's kindness to become the commander-in-chief of the Zhongxiao Army.

As a result, a Jin Kingdom version of the suicide squad was born, with the entire army being criminals, and the opportunity to make a name for themselves soon came.

The following year, Mongolia followed Temujin's last wish and began to war against the Jin Dynasty. They attacked Dachangyuan. Monk Chen led the Zhongxiao Army as the vanguard and defeated the Mongolian army of 8,000 people. This victory".

Two years later, Monk Chen once again accompanied the army as a vanguard. He defeated the Mongolian cavalry on the battlefield and lifted the siege of Weizhou.

The next year, Subotai attacked Sichuan and Shaanxi and broke through Xiaoguan, advancing towards Lu and Zhuyang. Monk Chen once again led the army and won another bloody battle with Mongolia in the Huihui Valley. Subotai's plan to attack Tongguan was frustrated, and Wo Kuotai reprimanded him. .

After this battle, Monk Chen was promoted to General Dingyuan, and Mongolian troops also knew Monk Chen's name. People at the time praised him and said: Jin cultivated talents for more than a hundred years, but he only raised Monk Chen Er!

This was only the fourth year since Monk Chen was released from prison.

The victory in terms of elite troops boosted the confidence of the Jin Kingdom, which made them face Mongolia's three-line attack and planned to gather heavy troops to completely eat them all.

In 1231, Mongolia used the Song Dynasty to destroy the Jin Dynasty in three ways. Jin Aizong's response was to mobilize the defenders along the Yellow River to gather in Dengzhou with the number of 200,000, intending to win a great victory in the war of annihilation.

As a result, Tuo Lei, who led the army on the west route, first attacked east and west and then encircled and attacked, causing the Jin army to focus on one thing and not the other. Finally, with 40,000 troops, he set up an ambush at Sanfeng Mountain, an important road, and completely defeated the Jin army.

Although there were weather factors in this battle, it was also the result of sophisticated mine control. Monk Chen's thousands of Zhongxiao troops still stormed Sanfeng Mountain despite being cut off from supplies, but it did not help the overall situation.

In the end, the remnants of the Jin army retreated to Junzhou, and the Mongolian army followed. Seeing that the situation was over, Monk Chen confessed his identity in the street in order to gain dignity.

When Wokuotai asked who his last name was, he was not polite:

I am Monk Chen, the commander-in-chief of the Zhongxiao Army.

I am the winner of Dachangwon!

I am the winner of Weizhou!

I am also the winner of Huihui Valley!

If I die in the chaos of the army, people will say that I have betrayed the country.

If I understand death today, there will be someone in the world who knows me!

Later, because Monk Chen refused to surrender or kneel in front of Wokuotai, and continued to curse, the Mongols chopped his knees and split his face. He eventually cried out with blood and died at the age of forty-one.

When the Mongols saw his death, they poured mare's milk on the ground and said: "Good man!" If you are reborn one day, let me get it!

At this point, the Kingdom of Jin has breathed its last breath of recovery. 】

"There must be someone in the world who knows me..."

Although this person was not a Han child, he did not lead an army to invade the Song Dynasty in the south, and he knew that being loyal and righteous and sacrificing his country could be called a strong person.

Therefore, when Zhao Kuangyin read it, he still felt a sense of bravery coming to his face.

Although Monk Chen failed to save the country, in a sense, he succeeded again.

Although he is not as good as Yue Fei in terms of achievements and injustices, at least he is like Yue Fei, so that future generations will know that he did not fail his family and country, and will know the fate of his death.

But thinking about Yue Wumu again, Zhao Kuangyin still couldn't let go:

"Then Zhao Gou might as well be called Aizong."

Zhao Guangyi was cautious in his words and actions, but he also understood what his brother meant.

Since the middle of the Tang Dynasty, temple names have almost replaced the posthumous names, so one can still interpret his life based on the posthumous title.

Those whose virtues are not established, who have suffered too much, or whose benevolence and benevolence are short-lived, etc., can all be mourned, that is to say, they either live a short life and die young, or they have ambitions that are difficult to achieve.

And if these two situations can be applied to Zhao Gou... it seems that it is indeed a good thing.

However, looking at his brother and glancing at him, Zhao Guangyi could only bear the sweat on his forehead and tried to make amends:

"But at least the idea of ​​a loyal and filial army is quite feasible."

"Why don't the officials follow suit, so that good people will not get involved in sinful habits?"

Zhao Kuangyin nodded, a rare expression of affirmation:

"Shan, how about you lead the army?"

Master Kongjiong was stunned and did not dare to answer.

My family knew about their own affairs, and the personal servants in the Jin Dynasty had used money and power to make them obedient, but they had never thought about what orders and prohibitions they could make.

If faced with an army composed of barbarians and bandits, it would be even more difficult to convince such arrogant soldiers.

So the look on the face of the Zhao Song emperor changed to undisguised contempt:

"You don't know that the army has reached this point, no wonder there is the defeat of Gaoliang River and the loss of the Northern Expedition."

Hearing his brother say this, Zhao Guangyi couldn't help but get angry, and he was angry:

"The emperor is right."

So the expression on Zhao Kuangyin's face became more and more boring, and he turned to talk to Prime Minister Zhao Pu about the gains and losses of the Song and Mongolia destroying the Jin Dynasty:

"That Temujin is very clear about the calculations, knowing that it is difficult for the Song and Jin to have peace talks."

"There should still be room for peace talks."

Zhao Pu analyzed:

"It's just that this situation is the opposite of the Jingkang shame."

"Jin Xuanzong is unwise, he has something to ask of the Southern Song Dynasty, and he still wants to blackmail him after the defeat at Yehuling. If his country is strong, there is still room for negotiation to promote peace through war."

"But in the case of defeating Mongolia for twenty consecutive years..."

Zhao Pu shook his head, his meaning was self-evident.

Moreover, he remembered that Jin had not known that the lips and teeth are cold, and had refused Xixia's request for help, so that Mongolia gained power.

At that time, the Southern Song Dynasty was still thinking about the revenge of Jingkang, or it knew the truth that the lips and teeth are cold, but it would rather see the defeat of Jin first.

It can only be said that the past hundred years have been a repeat of the past.

In Ganlu Palace, Li Shimin also looked at the general of Jin with a serious look and commented:

"He is not a hero, but he can definitely be called a fierce general."

In his opinion, Jin Aizong was able to burn his boats and set up such a loyal and filial army, which was considered to be a means.

But such elite troops came too late, which was a case of mending the fold after the sheep were lost, and it was useless.

If there were such elite troops in Yehuling to resist Mongolia more than ten years earlier, the fate of the country might have been rewritten.

But since Jin Xuanzong fled south and handed over Youzhou, the country has embarked on the old path of the Northern Song Dynasty.

Not only did he give up the Youzhou Pass, but he also gave up the land of Hebei, which was almost equivalent to giving up the country.

Why did they refuse to flee south until the Mongol army arrived?

Although they had elite troops, Hebei was so large that the Mongols could roam freely. No matter how many good news they received, they would not be as useful as a single annihilation war against the Mongols.

It was also because of this that Li Shimin felt that he had a more thorough understanding of the "elimination of living forces" often mentioned in later generations.

But soon his attention was also attracted by the Yuan and Ming dynasty dramas:

"Popular? Could it be that the history of Emperor Yang of Sui was also written at this time?"

But perhaps Li Shimin's expression was not dignified enough, Wei Zheng shook his sleeves and was about to stand up, which prompted Li Shimin to make amends:

"I am just worried about the source of the later jokes that we are the source of the legend of the gods in the world."

"Since we want to promote civil governance, we should cater to the interests of the people and make up stories based on this."

As a result, he felt a pair of jade hands touching the hidden part of his waist:

"Your Majesty seems to be very interested in Emperor Yang's harem?"

The king of the Tang Dynasty suddenly felt a little sweat on his forehead.
