Chapter 39: Total War
"Your Majesty's painting skills are simply amazing!"
Wang Yue, who opened the Hangzhou city gate, stood beside the great painter and exclaimed.
In fact, the moment his Lu Gong car pushed the moat, the defenders of the city wall collapsed. Zhu Xie was indeed highly expected by Zhejiang gentry, but the people of Zhejiang were not interested in following him. During this period, Hangzhou City had known about what Wang Yue had done in the north.
So few people really resisted.
Wang Yue's Lu Gongbuo pushed the moat across the moat. Before he could get up against the city wall, these people were so scared that they ran away. When he stepped on the suspension bridge and walked up the city wall, only Zhu Jie was alone, and even the officials and gentry guarding the city together ran away. The great painter's Ming Wang Pingzhe picture depicts this moment. Countless brave soldiers continued to push the majestic Lu Gongbuo. The suspension bridge on the roof was lowered. Wang Yue, who was like a god descending to the earth, walked towards the city wall with a giant sword in his hand.
In front of him was Zhu Xie, who was obviously very vulgar.
There are also those gang members who either fled in a hurry or knelt on the city wall to greet them.
Of course, it goes without saying that the painting level of a great painter is, and he originally painted fine brushwork. At this moment, he did his best to show off to Wang Yue. Although the entire Ming Wang Pingzhe Picture was limited by time, there were not many real characters, and the colors were relatively monotonous, but Wang Yue's majestic image was simply vividly displayed on the paper. Wang Yue could see his extraordinary temperament...
Well, he has a thick skin, too.
"The power of Zi Fen is truly breathtaking!"
The great painter said with a smile.
"Ha ha!"
Wang Yue smiled proudly.
The great painter quickly laughed.
Yue Fei next to him took a deep breath, and the mood fluctuated a little violently.
"Your Majesty, your Majesty save me!"
Then a miserable scream sounded in front of him.
Wang Yue and the great painter, who were studying the painting, looked up at Zhu Xie who was dragged by a group of local soldiers.
The latter is in his early fifties, and Baibai Pangpang looks very rich. He is the king of Liangzhe. Although he is a glove for the great painter, this guy and his family have replaced most of the officials of Liangzhe with his disciples over the years, which also allows his family to accumulate wealth that is as rich as the country. Among them, there are more than 300,000 acres of paddy fields in this area alone.
This number is indeed not as good as the top families in the Ming Dynasty.
Not to mention those who have been with great talent for generations, even Zou Wang, Wuxi, who has never been an official, has 300,000 acres.
But this was still very exaggerated in the Song Dynasty.
More importantly, he controls Hangzhou business, controls the monopoly of important commodities such as Mingzhou's overseas trade, Liangzhe salt, iron, tea and wine. In this case, only Hangzhou business, that is, the trading tax of various goods allowed by private transactions, reached 200,000 yuan per year.
He is the main wallet of the great painter.
Of course, it is also the only thing that Liangzhe has to do, from gentry to the people.
After all, all this money was squeezed out from them, even the gentry was the same. The gentry could only pass it over, but the transfer was limited after all, beyond the endurance of the people. That was Fang La. In the end, the gentry had to take out a part of it himself. Such people were definitely angry with both humans and gods. At this time, not only these soldiers and the people were happily dragging him, but there were also a few people with obvious family property behind him, and they were also cursing him, although these guys might have supported him to resist Wang Yue not long ago.
But now he has failed.
Then these people are willing to vent their anger on him.
The unlucky Zhu Jie was dragged while enduring the curses and beatings around him, and looked pitifully at the great painter who wanted to seek some help.
Even comfort.
Everything he did was done for great painters.
However, the great painter turned a blind eye and lowered his head without any fluctuation, modifying a small flaw in his paintings.
"Take him down and go to the city and then make a public trial!"
Wang Yue said.
The local soldiers and civilians around him cheered.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty save me. I have worked hard for Your Majesty. Now, at the moment of life and death, why did Your Majesty save me?"
Zhu Xie continued to shout desolately.
Wang Yue looked at the great painter. The great painter was still studying his paintings. It should be either a revolving person, but it should be purely devoted to the world of art. This is how the artist is. Once he is devoted to the world of art, I will completely forget about it. Since this is the case, there is no need for Wang Yue to give him face. He waved his hand and signaled to drag him away quickly. The happy soldiers dragged Zhu Xie away. The latter kept calling for help from the great painter. The great painter continued to continue art. At this time, a fast horse came from behind.
"King, Dengzhou urgently reported."
The officer who delivered the letter handed a copy of the urgent report to Wang Yue.
Wang Yue opened it and looked...
"Your Majesty, it's time for us to go back!"
He said.
The Jurchen army headed south.
Moreover, this urgent report was sent from Yanshan Mansion ten days ago.
The Jurchen army led the Eastern Army to march southeast along the Liaohe River to restrain the attack on the Ming Kingdom. Ma Kuo had already fought with him because of the frozen weather everywhere in this season. Even the surrounding areas of Liaoyang were once again firm. Even because of the harassment of the Jurchen army in Baozhou, all militias in southern Liaoning were mobilized to guard the transportation line. Nianhan led the Western Army to march south from Linhuang, and the troops were also divided into two groups. He led the main force to attack Jinzhou, and Lou Shi led the side troops to go south from Zhongjing to restrain Xiao Gan.
Jinzhou has begun war.
Moreover, the Jurchen army got a counterweight catapult...
Wang Yue had known this for a long time because this was the gift given to them by the great painter.
However, this thing did not pose any threat to Han Qingmin, because the core of his defense was not Jinzhou City, but the mountain city next to him. The counterweight catapult could not be thrown on his head. On the contrary, he could use the same weapon to smash the attackers below in the mountain city. Jinzhou's defense was similar to the Sichuan mountain city during the Song and Meng war. Jinzhou only lived in peacetime and retreated to the mountain city during the war. The only flaw was that the mountain city was short of water.
But fortunately it's winter.
The almost melting snow is a natural reservoir.
In addition, the Mongolian army went south from the grassland to attack Datong with 30,000 cavalry and 10,000 from the White Tatars. Yang Zongmin tried to fight in the wild, but failed and had to defend Datong. For the first time, he fought with these cavalry that were more barbaric than the Jurchens. The tactics were completely different. Yang Zongmin, who was used to fighting the Western Xia army, was very uncomfortable.
He can't beat others himself.
In fact, Jin Wushu had tried to sweep the grassland in history, but he also failed. Yang Zongmin's subordinates had indeed greatly improved their combat effectiveness, but they did not reach the level of Jin Wushu.
It is normal to fail in the field.
The Mongolian army was invading Xuanda everywhere, but fortunately Xuanda was originally sparsely populated.
Zhe Keqiu had already assembled the Hedong Army to prepare to leave Yanmen Pass, but the Western Xia Army also deployed troops on the northern border. Although there was no attack, it restrained Guo Qizhong's troops, making the latter unable to rescue Datong, and even Yao Gu and others dared not move.
In other words, the entire northern battlefield has begun war.
Moreover, Xiao Puxian also gave Wang Yue a special news, that is, Zhao Gou also led a Jin army south, and was under Nianhan's subordinates.
Wang Yue smiled and handed it to the great painter...
"This rebellious son was all created by him and Qin Hui. I really don't know that they conspired with the Jurchens, just to send them to contact him. Who knew that they had such a rebellious act of invading!"
The great painter said righteously.
"In other words, it was all the main plot of King Kang and Qin Hui to invade the invasion?"
Wang Yue said.
"Yes, they did it!"
The great painter said without hesitation.
"I just said, how could the Supreme Emperor be like this? But you contact the Jurchen privately. This is indeed wrong. After all, the Jurchen is my enemy of the Song Dynasty."
Wang Yue said.
"I was also confused for a moment. I was bewitched by those rebellious sons, Qin Hui, Cai You and others. Now Sizhi regrets it. In short, the big mistake has been made. Let's obey the Four People's Congress' handling!"
The great painter said.
Of course, he understood what Wang Yue meant. If he wanted to avoid being hanged, he had to blame the main crime of the invaders to Zhao Gou and Qin Hui, otherwise there would be no reason to deal with it leniently. As for whether the latter believed or not, it was Wang Yue who had the final say in the end, and he was just giving a step. In this way, everything was caused by Zhao Gou and Qin Hui. They deceived him and took advantage of the opportunity of normal missions to contact him, deliberately conspiring with the Jurchens to invade.
He didn't know.
These two people deliberately concealed the invasion.
In short, all the responsibilities are just to be put on these treacherous ministers.
"In this way, I understand, Captain Yue, do you understand?"
Wang Yue said.
"Yue is only responsible for arresting. As for whom it led to invasion, this needs to be tried by the Four Civil Congress."
Yue Fei said angrily.
It was obvious that he was in a bad mood by the shamelessness of these two bastards.
Of course, it is mainly because of the shamelessness of great painters, and he has long been accustomed to Wang Yue's shamelessness.
Yue Fei, who was originally educated to serve the country with loyalty since childhood, probably only to fulfill his duties before meeting a great painter, still respected the former emperor. However, since meeting a great painter, the latter's despicable character has completely collapsed his worldview. It must be understood that although he is already a representative of the Four People, the education of loyalty to the emperor since childhood has made it difficult for him to change his mind in a short period of time. He is not as good as those who are illiterate, and the latter can quickly change his worldview.
From the original belief in the Zhao family to the world of the world that believes in the world.
These two mean completely different worldviews. Those who are illiterate often believe in authority and the good people in their minds. Wang Yue said that the world is the world of the world, and they will believe it immediately.
They don't need to think too much.
But it is difficult for Yue Fei to believe this immediately if he is both civil and military.
This had a serious conflict with the education he received since childhood and the knowledge he learned, which made him very confused. It would take him a long time to change, and at least half a year was far from enough. Of course, once such a person changed, it would be a complete change, and the great painter obviously accelerated his change.
real.
This emperor who ruled him for twenty years really ruined his views!
