Chapter 145 Wearing Ma and Filial Piety and Going to the Throne (Five Minutes Later
June 16th, the eighth year of Xuanhe, morning.
Taiyuan City, the Lieutenant Colonel's Field, was a scene of great demise.
Tens of thousands of athletes from the Tiance Army, the imperial tent army, the front army, the central army, the rear army, the left army, and the right army were standing in the school grounds under the banner of temporary white production. In addition to their purple military uniforms, they were covered with rough white shirts, and white cloth was tied to Fan Yang's hat, and even the wooden poles of the spear and axe in their hands were tied with white cloth strips.
These soldiers and generals were all wearing mourning for Zhao Kai’s father and brother and the Song Dynasty who “wanted”!
The officers at all levels under their command told the soldiers of the soldiers of the "Twelve Medals of the Tiance" and the good news that Zhao Kai was "will be the emperor". After they pushed their morale to the top, it was shocking and angry bad news followed!
The bad news is that the Jin thieves dug the new dam of the Yellow River north of Kaifeng Prefecture. The water of the Yellow River came from the sky and flooded more than 200,000 troops led by Li Gang, Zong Shidao and others! Then they rushed towards the capital of the Song Dynasty, the head of the Song Dynasty, Tokyo Bianliang Kaifeng Prefecture!
The Yellow River water several meters high pressed down the thin walls of Kaifeng Prefecture with an unstoppable momentum, and soon poured in from several water gates that had not been blocked. Due to the erosion of the water flow, the city walls near the water gates were quickly washed down, and the Yellow River water poured into Kaifeng Prefecture at a faster and more rapid speed... In less than a quarter of an hour, the entire Kaifeng Prefecture was flooded by the Yellow River water several meters deep!
Among the millions of people in Kaifeng Prefecture, except for a small number of people who were lucky enough to board the ship or climbed up the uninundated high places and survived, they were almost all drowned!
When the flood came, the officials of the Song Dynasty were experiencing the people's sentiments on Maqian Street. They had no time to escape to the heights or ships, and were swallowed by the flood... nothing more!
The prince of the Song Dynasty was studying the Analects of Confucius in his mansion. When he was just learning to turn a blind eye to the outside world and read only the books of sages... The flood of the Yellow River rushed in! As a result, His Royal Highness and his teacher Geng Nanzhong also asked the water to wash it away. I don’t know where he rushed to it. Most of them drowned!
The eunuch Tong Guan and Tong Taishi, the most trusted eunuch in the Song Dynasty, was one of the lucky ones who had not been flooded.
At that time, he was supervising the construction of a tall tower on Genyue Mountain, so he escaped. Later, Tong Guan boarded a canal ship sailing in Kaifeng Prefecture and brought several survivors to Taiyuan Prefecture...
Since the Jin soldiers surrounded Kaifeng Prefecture for a long time, everyone knew that the Yellow River often flooded, and the flood even rushed all the way to Xuzhou! So when everyone heard that the Jin thieves used water instead of soldiers, first flooding the camp army and then flooding Tokyo Bianliang, almost no one suspected that the news was fake, so they believed it all!
After believing it, a very serious problem was placed in front of everyone!
The Song Dynasty seems to be gone, what should I do in the future?
Just when everyone was a little panicked, the commanders of each army and general stood up and spoke.
"The official family is gone, the prince is gone, but the king is still there! The king is a chosen man of heaven. He is wise and powerful, and he is invincible in battle. He also shares the world with our martial artists. If he is the emperor, would he be afraid that he cannot reopen the Song Dynasty and attack Huanglong?"
"With a great king leading us, why not if Kaifeng Mansion is lost? What's the trouble if the official family dies? What's the trouble if the prince dies? If Kaifeng Mansion is lost, we will help the king to steal it back! The official family dies, the prince dies... The king happens to ascend the throne as the emperor!"
"Now the official family and the prince are gone, the court is almost gone, and there are very few troops left in the more than 200,000 camps. The billions of common people in the world can only rely on the king to protect us, such as the fighting men! So we must support the king to ascend the throne!"
"Brothers, we and the people of the world are now counting on the king! The king must ascend the throne and become the emperor!"
"The king must be an official... Only when the king becomes an official can the "Twelve Medals System" be truly implemented, and we can share the world with the king!"
Bewitched by the officers, the little fear in the hearts of the soldiers of the Tiance Army soon disappeared... What's the matter if the official family is gone? It's really easy to support the king as the official family! It's better if the prince is gone, so it won't be hindered! If the Song Dynasty is gone... Then reopen one!
......
Just as everyone was about to support Zhao Kai ascend the throne and reopen the Song Dynasty, two horsemen walked side by side outside the schoolyard and were slowly heading towards the schoolyard. They were both filial sons, and they both valued filial piety, which was Zhao Kai and Zhao Zhi.
Zhao Zhi, Zhao Duofu and his brother and sister, Zhu Fengying, Pan Cailian, and Zhao Lun, actually left Xiangzhou on the same day as Tong Guan and Lu Yihao and went straight to Taiyuan Prefecture. Because after the Battle of Wannian Xindi, the Jin army had lost control and could go north to Xiangzhou at any time. Therefore, Xiangzhou was no longer safe, and the families of Zhao Kai who were left in Xiangzhou and the families of the military generals began to transfer.
The families of the military generals and the people of Xiangzhou who were willing to follow were all escorted to Huaizhou by Cai Mao and He Guan. Zhu Fengying, Pan Cailian, Zhao Lun, Zhao Zhi, Zhao Duofu and others moved to Taiyuan under the escort of Han Xiaozhou, Liang Fangping, Wang Xiaode, Bai Side and others. In addition, Han Xiaozhou's family also followed them to Taiyuan.
As for the defense of Xiangzhou, Zhao Bushi, the original Xiangzhou Tongzhe and the sixth-generation grandson of Taizu of Song Dynasty, took over.
Zhao Zhi and others arrived in Taiyuan Prefecture one day later than Zhao Kai, but they still caught up with this big funeral, which also gave Zhao Kai another brother to rely on.
Dozens of knights followed far behind, leaving room for the good brothers to speak. No one knew whether His Highness the Crazy King and his good brother could afford the mess left by their father and brother?
Among the dozens of knights who followed Zhao Kai and Zhao Zhi, in addition to the civil and military officials of the Grand Marshal's Mansion and Zhao Kai's personal guards, there were also two flag bearers, one holding a long white banner with black words on it, which was a couplet.
The first couplet is: There is a land of China in the mountains and rivers.
The second couplet is: The sun and the moon reopen the Great Song Dynasty.
Seeing that he was about to arrive at the school ground, Zhao Kai whispered to himself: "Twelfth brother, do you know what 'the mountains and rivers are in China; the sun and the moon reopen the Song Dynasty' means?"
Zhao Zhi frowned when he heard this: "San brother, this couplet means that the world belongs to us Chinese, no one can take it away! Although my Song Dynasty is in danger of destruction, you will also lead everyone to rebuild the Song Dynasty. But Third brother, we just have no father... There are many loyal ministers everywhere in the world who control hundreds of military states!"
Zhao Kai nodded and said, "I know that there are still many loyal ministers in the Song Dynasty... If these ministers are willing to follow Brother Yu, then Brother Yu will take them to reopen the Heaven of the Song Dynasty!"
What if they were unwilling? Of course, Zhao Zhi knew that Kaifeng Prefecture was not flooded, and his elder brother Zhao Huan was not dead, and most of them had ascended the foundation in Yingtian Prefecture... Although the late emperor issued a will to pass the throne to Zhao Kai before his death, the will was just a divine decree, not a formal major decree, and not many people heard it.
So in the eyes of most of the ministers of the Song Dynasty, Zhao Huan was orthodox!
When Zhao Zhi was in deep thought, Zhao Kai suddenly asked again: "Brother Twelve, are you willing to be with Brother Yu?"
Zhao Zhi quickly expressed his opinion: "I am willing!"
"Okay!" Zhao Kai nodded, "From now on, our brothers will be like brothers of Taizu's generation! I am Taizu, you are the King of Fu (Zhao Tingmei), let's start a foundation together! After Brother Yu goes south, you will stay in Taiyuan and guard this foundation for Brother Yu!"
"Third brother, I can't do it!" Zhao Zhi was still cowardly, and shook his head when he heard his brother's words.
Zhao Kai said: "You are good... Brother Yu has already made arrangements, so you can rest assured and boldly guard Taiyuan!"
