The former Pingding Military Governor Punishing City Chief Supervisor Office, and now the Tianshu City Military and Political Center, in the lobby, the military and political parties are gathered together to listen to the latest information summary of the First and Second Intelligence Department of the Secret Service (the original Intelligence Group was upgraded to the Department). First, it was an explosive news:
"To this day, I believe everyone here knows that in May, the former King Kang of the Song Dynasty, Anguo, the governor of the Anwu Army, the Grand Marshal of the Hebei Army, and the ninth son of the Emperor Zhao Jungou, ascended the throne in Yingtian Prefecture, Nanjing, and changed the reign to Jianyan. At present, the Jianyan Dynasty conquered the collapsed troops of the former Central Plains of the Song Dynasty and formed the Imperial Camp. The deployment of its troops is roughly as follows: Zong Ze, the former deputy marshal of the Hebei Army, was left behind in Tokyo, and more than 40,000 troops were left behind in the Yellow River defense line; Wang Yuan was the commander of the Imperial Camp, and more than 50,000 troops were left behind in the Imperial Camp to guard the Huaihe River defense line to ensure that the military supplies of the Lianghuai Road and Liangzhe Road could be transported from the Bian River to Kaifeng; Tang Chong, the former governor of Tongzhou, replaced Fan Zhixu, the former governor of Shaanxi Xuanfu, as the governor of Jingzhao Prefecture, and the Yongxing Army Road Strategic Control and Prefecture, guarding Guanzhong."
When the explosive news was announced on that day, Zhang Jiao, the director of the Second Intelligence Department, just announced the explosive news, the lobby was filled with excitement and discussions. However, those who were excited were middle and low-level officials and children of the royal family. Senior civil servants such as Chen Gui, Zhang Jiao, Hou Fangjing, and senior staff such as Zhao Xu, Zhao Wei, Zhao Gong, Zhao Jing, and Zhao Zhong (because these kings are sensitive to the identities and cannot be ignored or reused, they are arranged to have all arranged their positions as staff members), and a group of senior military officers have already known in advance. Therefore, they all looked as deep as water and said nothing.
Yes, this is definitely not good news for these senior officials. Needless to say, the royal family has been the most ruthless since ancient times. If you, King Kang Zhao Jiu, ascended the throne, what should you do if King Ji Zhao Qi, who is more qualified to win the treasure than him? There is no doubt that if Zhao Xu appeared before the palace of Yingtian Mansion at this time, waiting for him would definitely be a tragic ending. The best result is a lifelong imprisonment. Princes and Princes, like Zhao Wei, Zhao Jun, Zhao Gong, and Zhao Jing, will naturally be classified as the party of King Ji, and their political life will be completely over. Therefore, the children of the royal family with low identities can join the Jianyan Dynasty, but the royal bosses like them cannot do it.
Chen Gui, Zhang Jiao, Hou Fangjing and others had long seen that their Tianshu City Lord was definitely not a person who was inferior to others. In their opinion, it was hard to say whether the strength of Tianshu City could compete with the Jianyan Dynasty. But in this unparalleled land of the two rivers, it would be no problem to separate one side and become the hegemony of the princes. Zhang Jiao and Hou Fangjing were very eager to dominate Tianshu City. Only Chen Guimen Wan persuaded Di Lie to raise the banner of King Ji, so that Tianshu City and Tianzhu Army could become regular troops of the court in a legitimate way. In this way, it would be of great benefit to regaining lost territory and gathering people's hearts in the future.
It is true that Chen Gui is loyal to the Song Dynasty, but it does not mean that he will definitely choose to Jianyan Dynasty. In terms of the imperial power system, Zhao Xu is more qualified than Zhao Gou, and has the Yuansheng Empress as a supporter. It can be said that if a Northern Dynasty was established in the Two Rivers area, it would definitely be more legitimate than the Southern Dynasty built by King Kang. With the combat effectiveness of the Tianzhu Army, if there were tens of thousands of heroic troops, it would be impossible to defeat the Jin Dynasty. By then, the barbarians were washed away and the two emperors were welcomed, the world would be returned to the hearts of the north and the south... And his Chen Gui would also have a lot of hands in history...
Unfortunately, Chen Gui's good dream was shattered halfway by Di Lie. Di Lie refused to welcome King Ji, because once this trump card was played, there would be no more roundabout place between him and Jianyan Dynasty, and he would definitely be the life-and-death enemy of Jianyan Dynasty - yes, Zhao Gou could negotiate with the Jin Dynasty and cede land, and could pay tribute to the Jin Dynasty, but it would never be possible to compromise with the forces of Tianshu City, which made Zhao Xu the emperor. On the contrary, from then on, Tianshu City would become a thorn in the side of Jianyan Dynasty, and would be thorns in the flesh, and he would have to get rid of it soon. By then, the first enemy of Jianyan Dynasty would no longer be Jin State, but Tianshu City. At that time, Tianshu City would not be chosen by Tianshu City, and both sides would have to fight to the death until there was one left. Wouldn't this be cheaper to do this? And he was also in a passive state of strategic combat on both sides.
"This is a tragic ending of the pain of the relatives and the happiness of the enemy. Do you think I will adopt it?" This is Di Lie's final reply. The Chinese people have been best at internal fighting since ancient times. Di Lie never wants to fall into the vortex of internal fighting too early when he has not yet established a stable foothold, lacks strength, and a great enemy like the Jin Kingdom staring at him covetously.
Chen Gui was helpless. Although he did not want to believe such a result, the Youdujian, who is familiar with history books, also knew that since ancient times, the emperor's family struggle was the most unreasonable. Di Lie's assumptions did exist. He was not afraid of ten thousand, but afraid that if, once such a situation really happened, he Chen Gui would be a sinner for the ages. Therefore, he had to do his best to do things honestly, hoping that Tianshu City would become bigger and stronger, truly defeat the Jin Kingdom, and return the two emperors, and save the shame of eternal success. After expelling the Tartars, who will be the ruler in this world? Then we will look at the strength and people's hearts. Anyway, no matter what, the Han family will always be successful.
Although Di Lie did not establish King Ji and did not want to fall into internal strife, it was only the reason that could be said on the surface. The real reason was that he did not want to be Cao Cao. How could he say this? When Cao Cao first welcomed Emperor Xian, he could use the emperor to command the princes to occupy the commanding heights of righteousness, but at the same time it was equivalent to tying his ambitions. As a result, although he was the most powerful minister, he was given nine tins, fake martial arts, and entered the King of Wei, and his swords and shoes were only one step away from being the lord of the world... But at this step, he could not take it. There were many obstacles in and outside the court. It was exactly the old saying that "It is easy to ask for a god but difficult to send a god." It is easy to push a prince to the throne, but when he has become a god, it is difficult to pull him down again... As a result, Cao Cao was only the King of Wei throughout his life, and the great cause of usurping the throne can only be handed over to the next generation to complete...
Di Lie didn't want to be a copy of Lao Cao. Moreover, as a modern person, he could not tolerate an emperor on his head. Not to mention the elbows to himself, it would be unacceptable to kneeling down and worshiping alone... The Song Dynasty was pretty good, without the three bows and nine bows of slaves in later generations. When important officials met the emperor, as long as they were not on formal and important occasions, most of them would perform flat rituals. Of course, some important occasions still had to kneel down and worship... It was said that Di Lie had not kneeled down and worshipped anyone since he came to this era. There was no in the past, no now, and no in the future... there would be no!
The civil officials have such thoughts, what about military generals?
Most of the generals under Di Lie were born in the grassroots, and a few were low-level soldiers or officers from the previous dynasty. These people would never object to the change of dynasty. They thought that Tianshu City had strong soldiers and horses, and the royal family was in hand. They were the first in the world. Jackie Chan was expected, but unexpectedly, a Jianyan Dynasty suddenly appeared. This was a dynasty that occupied half of the Jiangnan region and the Dayi. Although the combat effectiveness of the officers and soldiers was far from that of the Jin army, for well-known reasons, it was probably not better to deal with it than the Jin army... This also made the generals of the Tianzhu Army depressed.
Therefore, no one from the royal family to civil officials to military generals has a good face.
At this time, the children of the royal family and officials in the hall suggested that they should write to the Yan Dynasty to join forces with it or join it.
Di Lie waited for them to discuss similarly and their opinions were basically unified, and then he said calmly: "Your opinions are summarized in two ways, one is united and the other is submission. First of all, I want to say. Union is a whim! What is Jianyan Dynasty? What is our Tianshu City? Now our soldiers are only tens of thousands, and the land is only one military state. Do you think it is qualified? Maybe you are full of confidence in my Tianshu City, um. I am also very confident, and I feel that my strength is not worse than that of Jianyan Dynasty. But will others believe it? If it were you, would you believe it?"
When Di Lie said this, he suddenly stood up from his seat, his voice becoming more and more excited: "Along with that, some people say they want to submit to him... Most of the people here are knowledgeable about history. I would like to ask you to think about what Zhou Gongjin said to Sun Zhongmou during the Three Kingdoms period, on the eve of the Battle of Red Cliff. All the Dukes of Yan and Yan can surrender to Cao, but you cannot surrender to Cao. This sentence can also be applied to the current situation..."
Di Lie didn't say much in detail, but just looked at Zhao Xu and other royal families meaningfully.
If Zhao Xu hadn't been deeply afraid of this person, he would have already jumped up and cursed him. It was obvious that you wanted to be independent and did not want to rely on others, but he led this unpredictable heart to the east, which was simply outrageous...
Those royal family members and officials may not be able to do practical things, but they are clear about the curves of the past and the present. At this time, all their faces changed drastically. They peeked at the King Ji, whose face turned pale and blue, and they dared not speak anymore. Zhao Xu was unable to say anything. To be honest, he really couldn't get rid of this matter. Who knows better about the royal affairs than him? Thinking of the time when Yuan Sheng ascended the throne, the third emperor's brother, Prince Yun, Zhao Kai, relied on his father's favor, had a delusion and wanted to force the palace, but was blocked by the palace commander He Guan and failed. The third emperor's brother was imprisoned in the palace, with his former charm and heroic spirit, and he was all over Dongliu. In this case, you must not appear on yourself... Thinking of the terrible point, Zhao Xu couldn't help but shivered with excitement.
Zhao Wei, Zhao Gong, Zhao Jing and other princes sitting beside Zhao Xu all looked at each other and shook their heads, making no sounds. Zhao Wei even looked at the calm city lord of Tianshu from time to time, and felt more and more that this person was not a martial man. After a slight speech, he led the finger at King Ji, and at the same time, he made everyone below keep silent and dare not speak out. Such a scheming was almost as terrible as an official talent like them.
At this time, Zhang Jiao clapped his hands and attracted everyone's attention, and said in a deep voice: "I have finished talking about the news of Jianyan Dynasty. Now, let's talk about the news of the Jin Dynasty."
When the children and officials in the hall heard Zhang Jiao's words, they couldn't help but feel trembling: Yes, it's the time when autumn is high and the horses are fat. Last year, the Jin army went south twice to attack the two rivers and destroy our Song Dynasty. Now that the Jianyan Dynasty is first established, is it...
Sure enough, Zhang Jiao's first words were related to the Jianyan Dynasty: "According to the information collected by several intelligence personnel from our army, in July, Wanyan Zongwang, the former right deputy marshal of the Eastern Army of the Jin army, died. The one who took over his position was Wanyan Zongfu, the third son of the Jin chief Aguda. Subsequently, the Jin Dynasty forced the Jianyan Dynasty to kill Zhang Bangchang, the pseudo-Chu emperor, and all the eight-way soldiers of the eight-way ranks, including Shangjing, Tokyo, Liaodong, Liaoxi, Pingzhou, and Changchun, with about 130,000 troops, and was affiliated with Zhutemu, and invaded the two rivers again, pointing to the Jianyan Dynasty's journey in Yingtian Prefecture..."
The news suddenly caused the hall to explode: Tian Kaiyan finally killed an enemy chief, but another one came, two rivers and more than 100,000 ferocious soldiers like wolves and tigers... Although the Jin army mainly went to Jianyan, they probably wouldn't let go of the two rivers. Tianshu City was too close to the two rivers... Thinking of this, many people showed a look of horror on their faces. Some people even thought of Zhang Bangchang's sad ending, and they couldn't help but be shocked when they thought of the ruthless means of Jianyan's ruthlessness towards those who were interested in the imperial power. They couldn't help but be shocked, and they didn't even dare to think about anything about joining the enemy in their minds.
Zhang Jiao's subsequent words indeed confirmed everyone's concerns: "Although the main target of this Jin army invasion is not me, don't think that our army can stay out of the matter - Wanyan Agu's entire army was wiped out, and the Luancheng army was robbed overnight. Yelu Duo from Zhending Prefecture must know this news. The reason why he did not act rashly was not only because of our combat power, but also because of insufficient troops. Now, the main force of the Jin army is moving south, Zhending is the only way to go. I believe Yelu Duo will definitely ask to mobilize the army to invade our Tianshu City - there will be a battle between our Tianzhu army and the Jin army!"
Di Lie glanced at him. This time, the people in the hall did not whisper again. Everyone looked heavy and felt sad.
Zhang Jiao roughly explained the current situation. Below is Di Lie's general mobilization.
Di Lie slowly stood up from the chair, walked down the steps, walked down the hall, looked around everyone, and said calmly: "You guys, the current situation is indeed very serious. We will face the biggest and most severe test since the establishment of Tianshu City. However, you don't have to worry too much. I am a soldier, so I will break it down from the military strength. The Jin army dispatched more than 100,000 troops, which sounds quite terrible, but what is the actual situation? I made an analysis with the General Staff and the military generals. First, the Jin Kingdom needs to separate some of the troops to stay in the country and guard against domestic differences.
The tribe is also alert to the borders of Goryeo, Xixia and Mongolia, so there will be no more than 100,000 people who can invest in the battlefields of the two rivers. These less than 100,000 troops will be divided into three routes, Hedong, Hebei East Road and Hebei West Road. Among them, Hebei West Road is the main force of the Jin army, and the goal of this main army is Bianjing! This is the strategic goal of the Jin army, and our Tianshu City is just a second-rate small goal. Therefore, the General Staff estimates that the total force invested by the Jin army in Taihang will not exceed 30,000; and the enemy troops directly targeting our Tianshu City will not exceed 20,000."
Twenty thousand! This number is really relieved compared to the 130,000 just now. As soon as Di Lie finished his analysis, there was a quiet exhalation sound in the hall - but even though everyone exhaled in a slight voice, it could not hold back hundreds of people to yell at the same time, the sound of the airflow was still very loud and harsh...
Di Lie frowned slightly and looked deeply at these people: "I think you should not forget one thing - you are all survivors of the disaster. In a sense, everyone is a person who has died once. But this does not mean that you will not suffer the second disaster and die the last time! Now that the enemy is in front of you, you should work together to fight against foreign aggression, and you must not have the idea of luck. Today I have a word to give to you - Tianshu City will exist, and Tianshu City will exist; Tianshu City will die, and Tianshu City will die! Where to go, think carefully! "
After the pacification meeting, Tianshu City, which unified its thinking, began to mobilize with all its strength, prepare for war, and usher in a new round of anti-Jin uproar (climax).
