Chapter Five Hundred and Nine Southern Song Dynasty Zhao Gou(2/2)

Song Qinzong had to issue an oral order, asking Song general Zongze to temporarily serve as the Grand Marshal of the World and replace Zhao Gou. It is estimated that Song Qinzong was also willing to remove Zhao Gou's military power. He was very wary of his younger brother's military power.

"It's a pity that I was unable to kill Jin Wushu."

When Yue Fei saw Jin Wushu running away, he came back to report to Chu Tian, ​​which was very regretful.

Jin Wushu was a general who was good at escaping. He was blocked by Han Shizhong in Huang Tiandang for 48 days and forced himself to escape.

After repeated defeats, Jin Wushu was not captured or killed.

His ability to escape is far better than his ability to command.

"Ding! Yue Fei's favorability towards you has increased by 4, and his current favorability is 85."

Chu Tian and his group hosted two Song emperors and Zhao Gou to Kaifeng, behind them were the battle-prone Han army and the mighty Song army.

Although the veteran Zong Ze was puzzled by Chu Tian and others for hijacking Emperor Song, Chu Tian and others promised him that they would release Emperor Song within half a month, and Zong Ze did not attack.

After all, if Chu Tian and his group had not appeared, Emperor Song would have become a prisoner of the Jin soldiers. Even the generals of Song would be unbearable.

I heard that two of His Majesties, who were personally expeditioned, returned triumphantly and shouted long live on Xuanhuamen Mountain.

Yao Youzhong, Zhang Shuye and other generals of Song who were defending Kaifeng City burst into tears. Their Majesty finally became sensible.

Most of the main forces of the Jin army were annihilated, and the foundation of the Jin army rule was shaken. The Jin army would not go south within a few years, and the Song Dynasty could enjoy a few years of stability.

Too many things have happened in recent years. The Song Jiang Uprising, the Fang La Uprising has been one after another. Song Huizong failed to conquer the Liao Kingdom twice, Jin soldiers went south twice, and the Northern Song soldiers were exhausted from war and had difficulty speaking of their suffering.

The civil and military officials in Kaifeng City wanted to welcome the two Majesties to return to the palace, but were rejected by the Han princes.

This group of princes who claim to be heavenly soldiers and generals want to receive a batch of additional rewards.

Such a requirement seems reasonable, because more than half of the Han army's princes died or injured in annihilation of the main force of the Jin army.

However, the treasury of Kaifeng City has been looted, and taxes from various places are not yet transported because Kaifeng City is besieged, so it is difficult to reward the Han army princes with the money from the public.

At this time, Song Huizong and Song Qinzong proposed to raise hundreds of thousands of taels of "incense money" from all officials and civilians to thank the heavenly soldiers and generals.

Hundreds of thousands of taels are a considerable amount. If it is distributed to each prince, it is equivalent to only tens of thousands of taels of silver per prince, and each prince may not be able to respect it.

Of course, although tens of thousands of taels of silver are not too much, Chu Tian still wants to take it.

Chutian's territory had a larger population than the Northern Song Dynasty, and its economy was prosperous. Wars occurred outside the territory, so it was really many times richer than Song Huizong and Song Qinzong who had experienced two large peasant uprisings, two conquests of Liao, and two Jin soldiers to the south.

The Fang La Uprising alone consumed the national strength of the State of Song.

During the Battle of Jin soldiers to attack Taiyuan, hundreds of thousands of soldiers in the Song State suffered a lot of losses, and major generals and gates suffered heavy casualties, and countless military funds were spent.

At least the war launched by Chu Tian can basically win, and through the war dividends, military expenditures can be made up.

However, most of the battles in the last decade of the Northern Song Dynasty failed, and the land was cedeed and compensation would only become poorer and poorer as the battle was fought.

Kaifeng City raised hundreds of thousands of taels of silver. Because he was worried that the heavenly soldiers and generals were not satisfied, Song Qinzong planned to use the emperor's concubine to convert it into gold and silver as a reward for the heavenly generals, and at the same time win over the heavenly generals to work hard for the Zhao family in the Song Dynasty.

“…”

Chu Tian was surprised by Song Qinzong's idea of ​​being imaginative. It is estimated that in Song Qinzong's view, sending a group of women out would not be a big loss.

Unlike offering to the Jin soldiers, Song Qinzong believed that the heavenly soldiers and generals should be relatively civilized, so he only gave the unmarried emperor to the heavenly generals and recruited the heavenly generals as their son-in-law.

The princess is the princess of the Song State.

The emperor who could get married at this time was the daughter of Song Huizong and the sisters of Song Qinzong.

The princes looked at each other, and facing the generous rewards of Song Qinzong, they didn't know whether they should accept them.

Mingguan muttered: "No, don't do it."
