Chapter 493 Reason
Fu Qian was as stable as Mount Tai, but some people couldn't sit still when they saw the atrocities of the Khitans.
In Song Jiu's memory, or for some needs, some of the behaviors of the Liao Kingdom were downplayed, and even deliberately beautified, the actual practices of the Liao Kingdom invaded the south were no less than those of the Japanese people behind. As long as they invaded the Central Plains, due to the grass-drawing system, the Liao soldiers turned into hungry wolf and swallowed everything.
Fan Yanzhao led his subordinates, less than 10,000 people, and despite the long journey of hundreds of miles, he rushed to Yingzhou. Of course, this force was definitely insufficient, and he left the base camp. So he asked Kang Baoyi, the chief general of Gaoyang Pass.
Kang Baoyi agreed immediately.
The two armies made an appointment to meet at the city of Yingzhou.
However, it was not fighting nearby. It was so far away that it was mostly infantry, so it quickly made the Liao army notice.
Xiao Yanyan first sent a large army to block Fan Yanzhao's army, and the heavy army headed to Fei Village in the southwest of Yingzhou.
The next day, Kang Baoyi was preparing to set off and took the army to the place where he met, but there were endless Liao troops besieged from all directions.
It was an extremely tragic battle, no less than the battle of Yang Ye in Langya Valley in history.
Facing the Liao army dozens of times, Kang Baoyi took the lead and led his subordinates to kill the enemy. Thousands of Song troops rushed out of the first encirclement with the determination to die, but were entangled by the Liao army in the second encirclement.
After a tragic battle, he could not break through for one day, so Kang Baoyi had to retreat to the camp.
The war continued the next day, but no matter how hard Kang Baoyi tried, he killed one person, but two more people rushed up, killed two people, but four people came up.
"Where are the reinforcements?"
There were no reinforcements. Fan Yanzhao was blocked by the Liao army and could not advance. Zhang Ning, the deputy general of Gaoyang Pass, and Li Chonggui, heard that the commander was trapped. He led his troops to rescue him, but Fu Qian held down 80,000 Hebei Song Army. They had too few troops in their hands, so they did not succeed in saving them. Instead, they were trapped by the Liao army. Fortunately, these two men were very fierce and had few troops to siege. After killing for most of the day, they could only break through the siege.
Also, when Zhao Heng heard that Kang Baoyi was in danger, he immediately sent Wang Rong to lead 5,000 cavalry to rescue him. However, the journey was too far, and Wang Rong and his subordinates almost ran away to death. When they arrived at the battlefield, the Liao army had already withdrawn, and Kang Baoyi was wiped out.
The next day, Kang Baoyi and Song Shun's entire army were wiped out, and no one surrendered.
Zhao Heng was furious and immediately issued an edict asking Shi Baoji and Shangguan Zheng to lead the army to head north quickly and then ordered Fu Qian to attack immediately. While the Liao army was a little tired of fighting in Fei Village, the two armies attacked each other and defeated the Liao army.
This strategy is not wrong. Even if Zhao Heng's wish cannot be met, he will hold back the Liao army, and then the central army will surge up and tens of thousands of troops in Hebei will siege it. Xiao Yanyan will lose her skin even if she dies.
However, at this time Fu Qian continued to sit firmly on Mount Tai, and even if Zhao Heng issued an imperial edict, he still did not send troops.
He did not send troops, and Xiao Yanyan took it away when he saw that it was good. There were no soldiers in the north, so Xiao Yanyan took the property and livestock of countless people he captured and slowly withdrew his troops.
Zhao Heng was almost furious, so he sent Wang Jiying to Dingzhou to send an order and asked Fu Qian to come to the camp to see him. Fu Qian came and said something, but Zhao Heng was not a child. Finally, he understood that all the reasons were just a cloud of clouds, and it was true that greed for life and fear of death.
In anger, he exiled and searched his house.
In fact, many people are still angry because of this. Why don’t you kill him?
How many people in Hebei were killed or kidnapped because of this man's cowardice, and many gradually prosperous towns were burned to pieces.
On the other hand, Fan Yanzhao learned from his mistakes and began to save himself.
He didn't have much troops in his hands, so he had to fight smartly. When the main force of the Liao army withdrew and only tens of thousands of rear troops, he quickly rushed to Mozhou, with teeth for tooth and blood for blood. In this battle, the Liao army's troops were still several times his. However, this battle allowed him to kill more than 10,000 enemies and regain thousands of plundered Hebei people.
The casualties rate, the Liao army invaded the south this time, and the number of casualties was greater than that of the Song army.
But what about the people in Hebei?
Upon hearing Fan Yanzhao's victory, Zhao Heng wrote a poem about Xijie and was appointed as the Grand Tutor of the Procurator. Li Chonggui sighed: "The general is in trouble and our plan is to do anything."
As if hearing his words, Song Jiu submitted his second memorial in Suzhou.
You should know that he has only written two memorials for more than six years, which is the first memorial after Zhao Heng ascended the throne.
Tens of thousands of people in Hebei died, thousands of miles away, with bones formed into mountains and blood flowing into seas, how can you do it!
Since Emperor Taizong, he has been harsh on military generals. However, since Emperor Taizong's later years, the generals have become stronger. Fu Qian is afraid of fighting like this, and Qian Ruoshui and other ministers are about to die. How can Your Majesty forgive him? If this is the case, the generals do not want to fight hard, what country will it be!
However, Zhao Heng did not accept it, and he had his concerns.
After two generations of rulers, the world gradually returned to its heart, but we cannot say that we can rest assured. For example, the rebellion in Bashu from time to time, don’t forget what time it was decades ago, and the five generations and ten countries changed from time to time.
He lacks self-confidence and dares not be sure to control the country.
So he deliberately promoted victory, and Fu Qian was appointed by him.
But he took the memorial and went to the back of the Daming Palace.
Liu E finally entered the palace, but her identity cannot be revealed.
Zhao Heng handed her the memorial and asked, "Do I want to use this person?"
Lu Duan was the first to be promoted, followed by Kou Zhun and Song Jiu. However, Kou Zhun opposed it in order to oppose it, and Zhao Heng was very worried.
At least it cannot be used now, so most of the important officials used in the early stage were loyal and honest elders, such as his gentlemen Xia Houqiao, Li Zhi, Yang Li... Others are also known for their loyalty, such as Lu Duan and Li Yan.
After these people are appointed, there will be no more turmoil. Even if they are innovated, they will not be too aggressive and make unforgivable mistakes under their correction, which will facilitate the transfer of rights and transition.
But Song Jiu is not a radical.
Moreover, Liu E also respected Song Jiu very much. One-third of the way to enter the capital was to support her and Gong Mei by singing Song Jiu's success in several victories. Later, she entered Zhang Qi's mansion, and in fact, her status was nothing at that time.
That's it, Song Jiu still gave enough respect and offered those wonderful strategies.
From a relationship perspective, if that beautiful little Pan is not dead, Song Jiu will still have a brother-in-law relationship with her husband.
From a personal perspective, I am also more at ease, because this person does not have a strong sense of power.
But it has never been useful. There is a reason for this. Before her husband ascended the throne and his reputation was established, he had to support his own people. Song Jiu was not, that was an old minister of the three dynasties. Or give him official titles, would he care? If it weren't for the sake of the country, he would have been the Prime Minister of the East Prefecture long ago.
But what will happen to Song Jiu when he comes back?
People want to have political achievements and military achievements. They have high reputations on both sides of the military and political affairs. No matter what they do, it is Song Jiu's contribution, not her husband's contribution, which will make people feel uneasy.
His reputation was too high, but Song Jiu would stay in Suzhou for a while.
Therefore, Song Jiu's two sons were allocated, and even added officials to Song Jiu's grandson. The son-in-law also promoted the officials one after another. Song Jiu's own officials were all added to the Taishi, rather than the so-called Taishi.
Then put Song Jiu down first and transfer Song Jiu back at the appropriate time. Everyone can understand it, and it is also obvious that the new emperor's dynamic is still to use Song Jiu, but it is not in the current period.
If the Liao Kingdom had not invaded, my husband and the prime ministers did a good job, and it seemed that there was no need to call Song Jiu back.
However, Liu E never thought about things like Gao Taotao. When she heard that her family was suffering, she immediately opposed the reform. She was even not sad but happy when her son died.
She thought for a while and said, "It's not appropriate. Hebei was severely damaged. He was happy and worried. He never defeated the Liao bandits..."
Zhao Heng understood that once Song Jiu was transferred back, he would still return to the origin of the throne, allowing Song Jiu to gain greater reputation.
Liu E said again: "Your Majesty, let's be more stable, let alone the Liao Kingdom withdrew its troops back."
That's how it is.
If Liu E and Zhao Heng really had infinite trust in Song Jiu, which made Song Jiu climb to the position of Zhang Juzheng and Huo Guang, Song Jiu would be afraid. Besides, he didn't want to bear such a heavy burden.
Moreover, in this battle, the second famous general of the Liao Kingdom, almost caused the fall of Goryeo, to die of illness in the army. Without Yelu Xizhen, even if the Song Dynasty hid Li Jilong, the god of war, it was not a big problem.
But then the incident started again.
Back then, Song Jiu miraculously broke out from Qigou Pass, and there were many brave generals who could fight under the tent. Although Shi Gui, Yang Ye and Guo Shouwen died one after another, Fan Yanzhao, Yang Yanzhao, Tian Shaobin, Liu Zhixin, Li Jixuan, and Hu Yanzan were still there, and they all became pillars of the army.
In addition to them, there is one person, Fu Zhaoshou.
If you refer to Fan Tingzhao and others, Fu Zhaoshou should be good. Although he made a lot of money in business at home, under the leadership of Song Jiu, he also gave a lot of money to donate it to the people, "kind and kind."
Judging from his father and ancestors, the Fu family was among the countries that year.
But this is an illusion.
In the battle of breaking through the siege, Fu Zhaoshou played a role, but he gathered his subordinates and handed over his subordinates to commander Song Jiu. Later, when he actually broke through, he had already left Qigou Pass and went to find rescue.
Many good deeds in daily life are not his, but Song Jiu's. I am afraid that Zhao Kuangyi will be afraid, so I borrowed Fu Zhaoshou's name to spread it out. Of course, Zhao Kuangyi also knew that although he expressed dissatisfaction with Song Jiu on the surface, he regarded me as someone, but in fact, he still likes Song Jiu to do things very much. Fu Zhaoshou took out some money, but compared to the wealth brought by following Song Jiu, these money is only a drop in the bucket.
Fu Zhaoshou went to Sichuan to become the head coach. Suddenly he became fascinated by Shu Jin. He found countless skilled workers to use different styles to weave for him, and even carried forward the glorious traditions of Wang Quanbin and Wang Ji'en. He did not give a penny to purchase materials. Even his servants began to be ashamed of being arrogant and abused the officers and soldiers.
With Zhang Yong here, Fu Zhaoshou was better. However, Zhang Yong had been in Sichuan for many years. The imperial edict transferred him to the beautiful Hangzhou and replaced Zhang Quhua, a seriously ill family member of Song Jiu.
Then he was exchanged for an official, Niu Mian. However, when Zhang Yong left, he said: "Mian is not to appease all talents."
