Chapter 467: Not very harmful, but extremely insulting
In Jinguo's tent, Wanyan Yanmu and Wanyan Zongwang were sitting on the floor, with the fire in front of them swaying and simmering koumiss.
As the commander-in-chief and deputy commander-in-chief of Jinying, the two of them had objections to the next move after accepting Zhao Shu.
According to Wanyan Zongwang's opinion, the Song people failed to make a sneak attack, but instead scattered tens of thousands of people, who were so frightened that they softened again.
Zhao Huan even dismissed all the generals who were leading the battle. Now no one in the Song Dynasty is preparing for war and only dares to defend.
As for King Qin's army in the south, no one has arrived for several days, so it is better to continue the stalemate and wait to bypass Wanyan Zonghan in Taiyuan.
However, Wanyan's mother had the opposite opinion. He did not think that it was a good thing to continue waiting, because although the Song court internally suppressed the main battle group, the actual army was still guarding.
As long as these hundreds of thousands of troops are still there, the Song Emperor has a fickle attitude and may bite back at any time. If the Western Army's offensive is blocked, no one knows whether there will be an accident. He does not want to lead the troops to suffer too many losses this time.
punishment.
"We can wait another seven days at most. We can't wait any longer. We can't wait any longer. Taiyuan hasn't been conquered yet, and Nianhan doesn't dare to go too deep.
What's more, Xijing in the Song Dynasty is also a hard nut to crack. There are also many defenders there. If the Song court continues to support it, it will be another strong city."
"Capital, the most elite Western Army of the Song Dynasty has been transferred to Tokyo, and has been defeated by us several times. Now Xijing is an empty city, just waiting for massacre.
Moreover, the Emperor of the Song Dynasty had always been unfaithful and would not give him the promised annual coins. He also wanted to protect the Liao people who were fighting against the Jin Dynasty. When encountering a war, one of them would run away while the other would only dare to shout, "Uncle, don't hit me."
Such a weak and fickle king will definitely not continue to pay us compensation if he does not wait for us to leave while we still have the army."
"If you don't continue to take it, then I'll hit you!
But not now. Now our two armies can only reach one way, which is completely different from the plan. Now we are alone and deep, I think it is time to leave."
The two argued for a while, during which people kept coming in and out to report on the movements of the Song army's battalions, and even information on the appointment and dismissal of the Song Dynasty army, all of which relied on powerful cash capabilities.
After the messenger quickly came to see him, he relayed all the information collected in Bianjing City, as well as what Zhao Huan said to the students when he went to the palace.
To sum up, the Song Emperor returned to Bianjing all night long because of the peace talks signed by the emperor, and loudly publicized outside the city that he would resist the Jin Dynasty to the end, and that he would also use the Tao of Masters, Li Gang.
Before they even finished speaking in detail, Wanyan Zongwang and Wanyan Yanmu felt as if they had seen a ghost.
"Are you really sure that the Song Emperor is really back? Isn't it a deliberate trick by the Song Emperor to get us to evacuate?"
"Deputy Commander, this is absolutely true. I have seen it with my own eyes. When the Emperor of the Song Dynasty heard that the peace talks in Bianjing were reached, he took a fast boat all the way from Sizhou and traveled thousands of miles a day along the waterway to reach Bianjing.
Many officials in the capital, not even the emperor, had seen it, but the people had seen it more than an hour in advance.
His words were so conclusive that he encouraged the people of Bianjing to vow to fight to the bitter end with Dajin, resolutely refuse to acknowledge the peace talks, and even said that he would confront you, just like Lu Bu versus Zhang Fei in the late Han Dynasty."
After hearing this, Wanyan Zongwang shook his head vigorously to see if he was still awake. Then, he nodded to another soldier, and the soldier quickly left to find someone to confirm with other spies in Bianjing City.
.
The messenger was a Han who surrendered from the Liao Kingdom, so he was not surprised by Wanyan Zongwang's actions. He just straightened his body, exposed a tattoo on his arm, and saluted Wanyan Zongwang sincerely.
"Please rest assured, Deputy Commander. The Xiaguan family has been implicated by Song officials. They are loyal to Your Majesty and to Dajin. In order to bring about the fall of the Song Dynasty, Xiaguan is willing to do anything!
Whether this is true or not, the general only needs to wait for a while, and the message will be sent through various channels in the city. The subordinate knows that today is the day to exchange hostages, so he just made a decision.
On the way here, the lower official ordered Meng An to exchange hostages and kidnapped the two princes of the Song Dynasty together, using this as a new bargaining chip in negotiations with the Song Dynasty!"
"Oli and I naturally know your loyalty, but if you act like this, won't it make the people of Song Dynasty no longer believe in our credibility?"
"Okay, let's talk about credibility and discredit. Aren't the people of the Song Dynasty going all out to fight against the Jin Dynasty? What about credibility? Do you have anything to add to what you just said?"
Wanyan Zongwang waved his hand and asked Wanyan's mother to take a sip of tea before continuing to ask for some details.
"This is the letter of war from the Supreme Emperor of the Song Dynasty. His ministers must be handed over to the deputy capital commander."
"Interesting, the Supreme Emperor of the Song Dynasty was so frightened, right? He actually gave me a letter of challenge, for fear that I would kill him too slowly? Didn't he have anything else to say?"
After receiving the letter from the messenger and seeing that the messenger had nothing else to add, he thought about it and asked him to continue to retell most of Zhao Ji's speeches to the people and students.
When these contents were heard by Wanyan Zongwang and Wanyan Chanmu, in addition to being unbelievable, they also felt a sense of nervousness.
After waving the messenger to leave, Wanyan Zongwang and Wanyan Yanmu did not discuss the authenticity of the matter. Instead, they opened the envelope and began to think about how to deal with it.
"Can you tell now that I can't leave? The Emperor of the Song Dynasty has already reacted. The Western Army hasn't arrived yet. If we don't leave, we may suffer a tragic defeat."
"There is something strange about this matter. When the Emperor of the Song Dynasty heard that we had crossed the Yellow River, he was so frightened that he immediately ran away.
He was so afraid that he would lose his throne that he would come back on his own initiative? What’s even more ridiculous is that he even found a messenger to send me a duel letter?
I think this letter is very crucial, the Supreme Emperor of Song Dynasty definitely hopes to reach some conditions with us."
Wanyan Zongwang said, flicked the letter in his hand, opened it and handed it to Wanyan's mother.
"This is a letter of war from the Supreme Emperor of Song Dynasty to you."
"You are the commander-in-chief. You should read it first. Besides, I estimate that this letter will only tell you what we are going to do tomorrow. I will send someone to negotiate with the Supreme Emperor and the Emperor in the evening."
Wanyan Zongwang acted very proud, and Wanyan Yanmu didn't give in anymore. She took it and looked at it. At the first glance, her eyes widened instantly.
Seeing Wanyan Yanmu's movements, Wanyan Zongwang admitted that he couldn't sit still and regretted a little. He should have watched it first.
Now he was more curious about what the Song Dynasty Emperor could write, and Wanyan Yan's mother had such a big reaction when she read it. Could it be that she was brazen and wanted the Kingdom of Jin to pay compensation?
"You'd better be prepared. This letter from the Song Dynasty Emperor is very insulting and disgusting."
“It’s insulting to politeness??? It’s disgusting??”
Wanyan Zongwang was shocked. Brother, we are the ones who kill people with swords. You said those cowards of the Song Dynasty were degrading the emperor. Have your roles been reversed?
Taking the letter of challenge from Wanyan Yanmu's hand with twitching fingers, the first word that came into view made Wanyan Zongwang's eyes burst into flames.
"Oh no, you son of a bitch, I am your grandfather, the Great Emperor of the Song Dynasty, Zhao Ji.
At the end of the day tomorrow, I will ask you, little brat, to have a duel in the open space in front of the two military camps to decide whether the contract between my son and you will count.
I require the armies of both sides to withdraw six miles each to maintain a safe distance of twelve miles, and only allow ten unarmed personal guards to confirm with each other that the other side will go straight in. You and I will be responsible for our own lives and deaths.
Whoever doesn't come will be a son of a bitch and his whole family. Your dear grandfather, the Supreme Emperor of the Song Dynasty, Zhao Ji, is waiting for your grandson to arrive!
Remember to write a suicide note so that you can burn it and show it to my wild son Wan Yanmin. Then you should shoot him on the wall to save your grandma from giving birth to him.
Personally recorded by the Great Master of the Song Dynasty - Chen Ye."
…
The war letter has Zhao Ji's official seal on it, and there is also a handwritten royal letter. It can be said that it cannot be more authentic.
Wanyan Yan's mother felt furious just looking at it, not to mention Wanyan Zongwang, the direct client. With his veins bulging, he tore up the document on the spot.
"Ah! I want the Supreme Emperor of the Song Dynasty to die! He must die! Since he wants to die, I will take him to the camp tomorrow. I will eat his flesh and drink his blood!"
The letter of challenge that Chen Ye wrote for Zhao Ji had no technical content and was not very harmful, but it was so insulting that it could be said that it made Wanyan Zongwang lose his mind.
Wanyan Zongwang tore up the war letter angrily. Now Wanyan Zongwang had no doubts about Zhao Ji's determination to fight to the end. From the bottom of his heart, he wanted to humiliate and kill the emperor of a country for the first time.
"I'm afraid we need to send people to continue to investigate this matter. I always feel that the attitude of the Emperor of Song Dynasty is wrong."
"What could be wrong? Just send someone to check whether the Song army has mobilized troops to prepare for an attack, and whether they want to take advantage of the opportunity to attack at night.
If the Emperor of the Song Dynasty comes tomorrow, I will kidnap him and take him away. If he does not come, we will attack directly and kill him until he bleeds like a river."
Wanyan Zongwang shook his head irritably, but thanks to Wanyan's mother's persuasion, he finally sobered up. The two began to arrange for people to go to Tokyo to confirm the intelligence, and also asked Zhao Huan to give an explanation.
It is a pity that Zhao Huan no longer has the time to care about them in the Song Dynasty Palace.
After Li Gang was quickly activated into the palace, Bianjing became the main battle state at this moment. Zhong Shidao and Tong Guan followed Zhao Ji's instructions to quickly organize the armies and strengthen defenses.
Everyone knew that there would be a big war next. The reason was that the generals of the main war faction read the letter that Zhao Ji took out and handed it to the messenger. It was really too damaging and too outrageous.
After Li Gang was ordered to continue to take charge of the city defense, Zhao Ji and Zhao Huan sat in the palace, but both of them looked a little embarrassed, especially Zhao Ji.
Although Zhao Huan was embarrassed, he was still dissatisfied and indifferent. It was a kind of indifference that was abandoned. Even this hall now has many people arranged by him. Although he could not hear the two people talking, they were enough to rush in at any time.
Come and help.
"I have worked hard on you during this period. I was ill and asked you to suddenly take over the affairs of the country.
I know about the peace talks, and I don’t blame you. No one in the court wants to fight, and you can’t do anything about it.”
"Father, when you come back, you want me to..."
Zhao Huan looked up at Zhao Ji, not knowing what he was going to say, but Zhao Ji's sudden concern still made his heart warm.
But thinking about Zhao Ji's actions when he suddenly came back, and how something was wrong with his words of concern, he became cold again.
To seize power is to seize power. Once he takes this position, he will not let it go, and neither can Zhao Ji.
"Personnel appointments, random switching between main battle leaders, and eliminating my old ministers to consolidate their status are all normal operations, and I think they are okay.
Apart from the fact that you don’t know much about the military, it’s actually quite good that you can do this. Even if you promise to pay compensation and cede territory, I think it’s okay, but..."
Listening to Zhao Ji's words, Zhao Huan nodded in his heart. This was the affirmation from Lao Tzu, but it was impossible to expect him to give up the throne willingly with just a few words.
So when Zhao Ji's words came, Zhao Huan's ears perked up.
"Obviously King Qin's army from all over the country has arrived, and there are obviously nearly 200,000 troops there. When our advantage has emerged.
Not only did you not strongly oppose the Jin's further unreasonable demands and look for opportunities to fight back to intimidate the Jin, but you also persisted in the peace talks to raise money and exchange your brother as a hostage. Can't you see that the Jin has decided to give up?
To be continued...
