North Song

Chapter 873: The murderer knocks off!

Views:

Lu Yijian didn't know Zhao Zhen's true purpose. After he left the Imperial Garden, he went straight to the gate of Donghua.

When the courtiers saw him, they stood on tiptoes and looked behind him.

They just watched for a long time, and didn't see the figure they expected to appear.

"Don't look, the official family didn't come..."

Lu Yijian returned to the courtier queue and said abruptly.

The courtiers became excited instantly.

"How can the officials not come?"

"The official family is indulging these two old guys to fool around..."

"If these two old guys are allowed to succeed this time, then how will we become officials if the two of them do the same in the future?"

"..."

The courtiers were talking babbledly.

Lu Yijian yelled, "Enough!"

The courtiers closed their mouths together.

Lu Yijian looked displeased and said, "It's fine for you to stop Cao Wei from becoming the king. Why do you want to bring Kou Ji? If you provoke Cao Wei, I can deal with something. If you provoke Kou Zhun, who will deal with? The season class teacher returns to the court to find your fault, who can deal with it

Don't look at how many catties you have, anyone dare to provoke. "

When the courtiers heard Lu Yijian's words, some people lowered their heads, and some people frowned.

Someone opened his mouth and said: "Lu Xiang, Kou Ji's current merits are no one can match. If you don't target him and let him sit down, I'm afraid that the tail won't fall off until then.

Lu Yijian stared and scolded: "It's as if you can dispatch and command him now?"

The man's face was a little ugly and said, "Lu Xiang, you should understand that I didn't mean that."

Lu Yijian's face sank, "I know what you mean, but the officials favor him. As long as the official favors him, you won't be able to deal with him."

Hearing this, the man's face became even more ugly.

Zhang Zhibai said on the side: "It's not the time to talk about this. The most important thing to do now is to ask those two to leave. If you let them stop, I'm afraid you will lose a clean face."

The news that Cao Wei and Kou Zhun blocked the door will inevitably follow Zhu Neng, Wang Shu and others to leave, and quickly spread to the entire city of Bianjing.

Those who are blocked, their faces will definitely be damaged.

The longer Cao Wei and Kou Zhun are stuck, the more damage they face.

Lu Yijian gritted his teeth when he heard this, and said, "Cao Wei wants the king, then give it to him. Whether the king can be appointed, it depends on whether he can withstand the pressure.

If Cao Wei is named a king, he is the only living king of a different surname in the Song Dynasty.

Everyone in the ruling and the opposition will stare at him, and he will become a target.

Cao's family will also be viewed by everyone in the government and the opposition.

Once someone in the Cao family makes a mistake, impeaching the memorial to the Cao family will drift into the palace like a snow flake.

If the Cao family couldn't stand it, then Cao Wei, a king with a different surname, would not be able to sit down.

Therefore, it is not a good thing for the Cao family to be crowned king, for Cao Wei.

However, some courtiers still disagreed, "Lv Xiang, this case cannot be opened. Once this case is opened, there will be no obstacles to the appointment of other surname kings by successive officials.

At that time, if some slanderers and favored officials become kings of different surnames by slipping their beards and patting horses, the court will be over. "

Lu Yijian said coldly: "Wangs with different surnames are not so easy to seal. Officials want to make Cao Wei a king with different surnames, and we will not stop. But some rules still have to be laid down.

It is not the merit of destroying the country to make a king.

We should play the officialdom and make this rule an iron law.

When other people want to be crowned king, then first conquer a country for me. "

Upon hearing this, the courtiers looked at each other, and finally nodded together.

If there is a rule of non-destroying the country and not being able to seal the king, then the king will not be abused in the future.

The enemies of Da Song's neighbors have almost been swept away.

In the future, if you want someone to be a king, you have to go to a very far place to fight in order to get the power of destroying the country.

The key problem is that, with their constraints, it is not easy for some military officials to travel far away to fight.

First of all, as long as the household department gets stuck with money and grain, it is unlikely that the military ministers want to expedition.

Seeing the courtiers nodded and agreed, Lv Yijian continued: "Please don't mention the matter of making Kou Ji the king for the time being. Don't talk to Kou Ji for now. Kou Ji can control all the elite soldiers of the Song Dynasty. If he is The consequences of being confused and doing something wrong are beyond our ability to bear."

At this point, Lu Yijian paused, and then said in an unprecedentedly heavy tone: "I went to meet the officials just now, and the officials said frankly that the prosperity of my great Song Dynasty can sweep the Siyi, and it can also sweep my Song. "

The courtiers shook together.

The implication is that if Kou Ji wants to lead the army and horses to the Song Dynasty, no one can stop it.

Seeing that the courtiers had no words, Lv Yijian continued: "I have said everything that can be said. What you are going to do in the future, it is best to discuss with me first. If you don't discuss with me, just take the initiative, then don't blame me for not guaranteeing. you guys.

When the time comes, people will deal with you, so don't beg you to my door. "

The courtiers looked at each other and bowed together in response.

"Hey..."

Seeing this, Lu Yijian's expression eased a little, and he instructed the courtiers, "You are here later, I will negotiate with the two old guys..."

After saying this, Lu Yijian stepped onto the Jinshui Bridge again.

At the head of Jinshuiqiao Bridge, Lu Yijian didn't make a roundabout. He straightforwardly said to Cao Wei and Kou Zhun: "The official will give you Cao Wei the title of king afterwards, and we will not stop it.

The courtiers will no longer ask for Kou Ji to be the king. "

Cao Wei and Kou Zhun heard Lu Yijian's words, looked at each other, and laughed.

Then they beckoned to their entourage, and gave a very comfortable command.

"Go home!"

"..."

The two old guys slowly got up and ordered the entourage to pack up their things and leave.

Lu Yijian looked at the triumphant looks of the two old guys, and their teeth tickled fiercely.

Following the compromise between Lu Yijian and the courtiers, the court stopped Cao Wei's voice as King Kou Jifeng, and instantly disappeared.

Just when everyone thought that Zhao Zhen would give Cao Wei the title of king, Zhao Zhen did nothing.

It was as if the kingship had never happened before.

No one knows what Zhao Zhen sells.

Kou Ji, who was as far away as Gubeikou, paid a little attention to this matter at first, but when a large group of murderers appeared outside the Great Wall, driven by the nine Khitan tribes.

Kou Ji didn't bother to pay attention to this matter.

Gubeikou pass on the city.

Kou Ji, Chong Shiheng, Liu Heng, and a general named Li Si in Jiaozhi stood side by side. The four frowned and stared at the large number of murderers outside the city.

"Rough estimate... there are two hundred thousand..."

After carefully observing the murderers outside the city, Zhong Shiheng gave a relative figure.

Kou Ji stared at the murderers outside the city and said: "There is no constitution, and there is no better armament. Many people only have a knife in their hands. They are barely stronger than the chaotic people, but the strength is limited. The only merit is the quantity. huge."

Zhong Shiheng, Liu Heng and others nodded.

The murderers outside the city, in their eyes, have no merit other than the quantity.

After Kou Ji finished speaking, he seemed to think of something, and his gaze fell on Tojo, who was behind Liu Hyung.

Kou smiled and said, "Tojo Chuichi, what do you think?"

Chu Tojo said with a humble expression: "The old slave thinks that the generals are right."

Chuyi Tojo, when he first arrived at Gubeikou, he was quite arrogant.

After Kou Ji ordered people to take him to see a few mass graves that had been burnt down, he saw Kou Ji again and immediately knelt down to Kou Ji.

In the country of Japan, leading thousands of soldiers and horses, they are all great generals.

Killing thousands of enemies is a big victory enough to leave the history of the Japanese nation.

However, on the battlefield between Song and Liao, everything about the Japanese Kingdom seemed to be insufficient.

With more than 10,000 soldiers and horses playing against each other, it can barely be regarded as a small and medium-sized battle.

A battle of more than 100,000 soldiers and horses can be regarded as a medium-sized battle.

A battle with more than 100,000 soldiers and horses can be regarded as a large-scale battle.

The general of the Japanese nation, thrown on such a battlefield, is at best a captain.

The number of slashing enemies enough to stay in the history of the Japanese nation is just a number contracted to the chief general of the imperial army.

Unless the thousands of enemies beheaded have any special origins, they are not qualified to report to the clerk's desk and let the clerk's attention.

That is to say, after seeing what a real power is, and seeing the real power controlled by Kou Ji.

Tojo Chu was very humble as soon as he appeared in front of Koji.

Not only was he submissive, but he even claimed to be an old slave.

Kou Ji seems to be very interested in scaring him, so when encountering big scenes, he likes to pull him out to scare him.

After hearing Chuichi Tojo's answer, Kou Ji chuckled, "Then what do you think, how should we fight this battle?"

Tojo froze for a moment, and hurriedly said, "Old slave doesn't know..."

Kou Ji smiled lightly, looked at Zhong Shiheng, and asked, "What do you think?"

Zhong Shiheng said solemnly: "Two hundred thousand murderers are not a threat to us. The real threat is the continuous gathering of murderers.

Once the number of murderers exceeds the range that we can bear, even if we have the advantage of being overwhelmed by combat power, we may not be able to wipe out all the murderers. "

Zhong Shiheng's words can be briefly summarized in one sentence.

That is, once the number of murderers exceeds a certain number, even if they kill them, they can't kill them.

Kou Ji heard what Zhong Shiheng said, "Do you think you can't give them a chance to continue to gather?"

Zhong Shiheng nodded.

Kou Ji asked: "Then what are you going to do?"

Zhong Shiheng said solemnly: "Take all the soldiers and horses in the pass, kill them all in one go, and defeat these murderers in one fell swoop. Those who are willing to surrender are incorporated into the military control camp, and those who are unwilling to surrender are cut off."

Kou Ji nodded and said, "In order to avoid long nights and dreams, just do it."

Speaking of this, Kou Ji again commanded: "Liu Heng, Li Si, you two also follow."

Without Kou Ji's instructions, Zhong Shiheng could not mobilize Liu Heng and Li Si.

The Japanese Army led by Liu Heng and the Jiaozhi Army led by Li Si were not under the control of the Song Dynasty.

Liu Heng and Li Si agreed and followed Chong Shiheng down the city.

Kou Ji and a few cronies were left to watch the battle on the city.

After Zhong Shiheng got off the city, he immediately aligned his troops and horses, ready to attack.

It's just that the murderers are more anxious than them.

The murderers are now forced to have nowhere to go. They don't care how many Song soldiers are in Gubeikou or how strong the Song soldiers are in Gubeikou.

They just want to rush through Gubeikou and rush into Songtu, seeking a way to survive.

The murderers rushed to the head of the city without any tactics, preparing to attack Gubeikou in a swarm of ways.

They seemed to have used a similar method to attack the city of Liao, so they felt that they could also win Gubeikou with this method.

Gubeikou is not the city of Liao.

It is not the remnant army of Liao that stationed at Gubeikou.

The murderers have not yet crossed the trench under Gubeikou.

The roar of artillery resounded inside and outside Gubeikou.

"Boom, boom..."

Under the bombardment of artillery, the murderers rose to the sky one by one, turned into corpses and fell to the ground.

Hundreds of artillery bombarded together, and the earth inside and outside Gubeikou was shaking.

Tens of thousands of muskets fired with the bombardment of artillery.

The murderers outside the city fell like wheat.

The murderers were on the offensive.

Some assailants turned around and ran away.

Two hundred thousand assailants attacked Gubeikou together, only to be frightened by the offensive of artillery and muskets.

Some of the murderers, the little leaders who took the initiative, rode horses and ran across the murderers, brandishing knives, slashing and killing the fleeing murderers, and drove the other murderers to continue attacking Gubeikou.

The murderers became a mess for a while.

When Kou Ji saw this, he no longer had the desire to watch.

Because when the murderers were in a mess, the gate of Gubeikou was opened, and Chong Shiheng led his army to kill.

The murderers were already unbearable in combat power, but after the bombardment of artillery and muskets, there was already a sense of timidity in their hearts.

Add chaos and become a mess.

There is simply no way to withstand the impact of the Great Song Soldiers and Horses.

In the case of the loss of Liao's elite, Da Song soldiers and horses are the strongest on the ground.

Against other regular troops, all soldiers and horses of the Song Dynasty can win with a crushing attitude, not to mention a group of murderers who have no rules.

After Zhong Shiheng led his army to kill, he charged through the 200,000 assailants in just one charge.

Then it bloomed on all sides.

Chong Shiheng, Liu Heng, Li Si and others led a team of soldiers and horses to strangle the murderers from around, and the murderers had no power to fight back.

The murderers were either killed, surrendered, or escaped.

What makes Kou Ji feel dissatisfied is that the number of murderers who escaped is far more than the number of surrenders.

A battle that reached 300,000 in scale ended in just eight hours.

After the war ended, it was late at night.

Chong Shiheng, Liu Heng, Li Si and others escorted nearly 80,000 prisoners into Gubeikou.

More than 30,000 assailants were beheaded, and nearly 90,000 assailants fled outside Gubeikou.

After Chong Shiheng and others took the prisoners into Gubeikou, Kou Ji asked them to hand over the people to the prefect of Datong Mansion, the new faction of the imperial court.

After the Song Dynasty regained the sixteen states of Yanyun, the eleven states of the sixteen states of Yanyun were divided into two prefectures.

Several prefectures to the west of the sixteen Yanyun prefectures, such as Yun, Ying, and Confucianism, were designated as Datong Prefecture; several prefectures east of the sixteen prefectures such as You, Ying, and Shun were designated as Shuntian Prefecture.

The city of Datong Prefecture is in Yunzhou City, and the city of Shuntian Prefecture is in Youzhou City.

Corresponding official positions were established in accordance with the new government system set by the imperial court.

According to the imperial court's military system, two local soldiers and horses were established.

Kou Jishun helped the two provinces build a framework for local soldiers and horses. Although the number of local soldiers and horses is not full, the general framework has been built.

So far, the assailants captured from the north of the Great Wall have almost all been handed over to the local soldiers and horses of the two provinces.

In this regard, the new prefects of the two governments are very pleased.

There were two pilot projects in Hexi Prefecture and Xingqing Prefecture. The Manchu civil and military officials knew that the so-called military management of the people was the free labor of the imperial court.

With the help of a group of free laborers, they can complete the reconstruction of the two government soldiers as soon as possible, resume farming as soon as possible, and make the two places rich as soon as possible.

For them, all these are political achievements.

How could they be unhappy.

The prefect of Datong Prefecture took the officials of Datong Prefecture, and after receiving nearly 80,000 laborers, he took them out of Gubeikou overnight.

After three or two days, these laborers are expected to pick up tools and appear on some pipelines under construction in Datong Mansion, or some of the fertile fields that are now under the name of the imperial court.

Not long after the prefect of Datong Mansion took the people away, the prefect of Shuntian Mansion took the people from Shuntian Mansion and rushed into Gubeikou.

After knowing that all the prisoners were taken away by the prefect of Datong Prefecture.

The prefect of Shuntian Mansion stood at the gate of Gubeikou and cursed Bantian Niang angrily.

In the end, Kou Ji agreed, and handed over the murderer who was captured later to him, and the prefect of Shuntian Mansion stopped scolding his mother.

In order to avoid being preempted by the prefect of Datong Mansion, the prefect of Shuntian Mansion simply guarded at Gubeikou, waiting for the next group of prisoners to appear.

After Kou Ji knew about it, he couldn't laugh or cry, but he didn't interfere.

Kou Ji waited until everything was settled, and summoned Chong Shiheng to where he lived.

The largest house in Gubeikou.

Brightly lit.

Kou Ji sat in the middle of the main hall.

Zhong Shiheng and others sat on both sides.

After everyone settled down, Kou Ji said: "Today's battle, I watched the whole process. The reaction of the murderers in the battle is no different from that of the refugees in the Song Dynasty.

However, the reaction of the murderers after the defeat was very different from that of some of the refugees in the Song Dynasty. "

Zhong Shiheng nodded and said: "I have also noticed this. Some murderers with tribes will hardly surrender after defeat. They will run if they can run, and they will only choose to surrender if they can't run."

Kou Ji said solemnly: "They are not a last resort, and they do not surrender. I am afraid it has something to do with the tribe. There are many tribes in various parts of Liao, and the people in the tribe have a deep conception of the tribe.

Will not leave the tribe easily.

Therefore, to encourage more of them to surrender, we must start with the tribe. "

Zhong Shiheng and Liu Heng had no words.

Instead, Li Si said: "If you want to start from the tribe, you must send people to negotiate with the heads of their tribes. Only in this way can they surrender obediently.

And those tribal chiefs are very greedy.

Most of them can't see themselves clearly, and they always like the lion to open his mouth.

Some people are even arrogant, thinking that with their little power, they can shake us.

Therefore, it is impossible to negotiate with the heads of the tribes. "

As soon as this remark came out.

Kou Ji froze for a moment, without saying a word.

Zhong Shiheng and Liu Heng looked at Li Si unexpectedly.

Seeing this, Li Si hurriedly explained: "In our Jiaozhi, there are countless large and small tribes. So I understand better."

Kou Ji stared at him and smiled: "Tell me carefully."

Li Si nodded, and said, "Those people of large and small tribes are very arrogant. If we talk to them and let them surrender, they will only think that we are afraid of them, but they can't help them, so we talked to them. of.

So when we talked to them, they would open their mouths and make various requests.

The most exaggerated thing I have ever seen is that a tribal leader with a thousand people actually offered to sit on an equal footing with my Wang Ping. "

Kou Ji was taken aback, and laughed: "They are very confident."

"That's arrogance..."

"But they don't think they are arrogant."

"..."

After the three of Kou Ji had a discussion, Li Si continued: "So I want to conquer them and let them surrender, only to kill them, there is no second way to go."

"Then kill!"

Chun Shiheng spoke without hesitation.

Liu Heng nodded in agreement.

Kou Ji did not have the benevolence of a woman, and then nodded.

After Liu Heng nodded his head to confirm the matter in Kou Ji, he opened his mouth and said: "When chasing the rout soldiers today, I found that many of the rout soldiers had fled to the outer mountains of Wohu Mountain.

I guess there must be something that attracts them in the outer mountains of Crouching Tiger Mountain.

Otherwise, they would not be able to flee to the outer mountains of Crouching Tiger Mountain. "

Hearing this, Kou Ji groaned: "Then send a scout to check."

Zhong Shiheng said on the side: "The scout has been sent out, and there should be news tomorrow."

After discussing here.

A few people didn't say any more, and they dispersed separately.

Early the next morning.

Kou Ji just got up when he got the news.

Sure enough, there is something tricky about the Waihu Mountain.

According to reports from the scouts, the murderers hid their families and some of the gold and silver treasures they had looted in a col on the outer mountain of Wohu Mountain.

In addition, in the outer mountains of Crouching Tiger Mountain, there are several people who are similar to the wise men of the small tribes, getting together and planning the attack on Gubeikou together behind their backs.

The previous war should have been controlled by the so-called wise men.

After learning this news, Kou Ji hardly hesitated, and sent Shiheng soldiers to clear the mountains outside Crouching Tiger Mountain.

Chong Shiheng led 30,000 cavalry out of Gubeikou and smashed to the outer mountain of Wohu Mountain, blocking those people in the col, and killing one happily.

In the end, a full number of prisoners were accepted.

Among them, there are more than 40,000 women, and there are also many gold and silver treasures.

You know, when the murderers were eliminated before, Chong Shiheng and others had never seen a woman, nor had they seen the seizure of a large number of gold and silver treasures.

With this group of murderers being cleared out.

The next group of murderers gradually flocked to Gubeikou.

The murderers seemed to be unable to clean up, and after one batch had been cleaned up, another batch appeared.

Gubeikou’s troops are very abundant, so there is almost no room for the murderers to take advantage of. Almost all the murderers who appear in Gubeikou have become prisoners.

Yuguan where Di Qing is seated, and along the Great Wall where Li Zhaoliang and Wang Kai are seated, have also won.

But something went wrong on the front line of the Great Wall, which sits down high.
