Chapter 68 Entering Beijing Can't Make Jinjun's Life Easy (For Collection)
Because the imperial decree is for Xiao Qi to enter Beijing immediately, Xiao Qi cannot stay in Chuzhou for too long.
Xiao Qi thought about it all night, and the next day he summoned all the generals in Chuzhou City.
He told the officers of the various military battalions under his command that he had thought about it all night yesterday and felt that although they had conquered two cities now, their foothold was not stable.
The Jin army is likely to take advantage of the fact that it has taken away two thousand elite soldiers to Beijing, and launched an offensive against Chuzhou or Chuzhou again.
And Xiao Qi was also worried that Shao Qingcai was still living well in the court, killing his family this time would make him take revenge on them regardless of the consequences.
Although he led the Changsheng camp to destroy his clan, he also deterred many people with bad intentions in the court, so that almost all the people around Shao Qingcai who dared to follow him to play tricks ran away.
But they had to take complete precautions, like the previous thing of opening the door to welcome into the city as soon as they said they were friendly troops, they couldn't do it these days when Xiao Qi left, not only that, but also be vigilant to the Song army behind.
Yangzhou City was no longer a big threat, except for [-] soldiers who transferred to Changsheng Battalion, the rest of the [-] soldiers were all dead. In addition, Xiao Qi went to the Yangzhou Revenge Regiment to train Shi Qingrao's clan, killing a lot of people.
Now Chuzhou City is relatively less threatening, and only needs to focus on the Northern Golden Army.
But Chuzhou is very difficult. Not only is it neighbors with Haozhou, which is occupied by the Jin army, but even Xiao Qi, the health mansion behind him, is very worried.
He was sent to Yangzhou Mansion to fight against the Jin Army just because Chang Wei, the deputy trainer of the Health Mansion, wanted him to die.
Although I have killed Chang Wei and Zhang Wenshu together, who knows if there are any other officials like Shao Qingcai who have colluded with the Jin people among the official trainers and the governors of Health City.
So Chuzhou seems to be closer to the Yangtze River defense line in the Southern Song Dynasty, but it is the most dangerous place.
Xiao Qi ordered that he take away 3000 cavalry and [-] infantry this time, and the remaining [-] cavalry in the two cities were led by Ma Shoucheng and Qin Tu respectively, and used offense as defense to harass the Jin army's supply line along the Huaihe River.
In the hope that there would be a problem with the food and grass supply of the Jin army, so that they would not have a chance to move their minds on Chuzhou City, the other generals thought this was a good way and they all agreed.
So Xiao Qi ordered: order Qin Tu to lead two thousand cavalry troops, mainly the sergeants of the Zhaodao Battalion, to attack and harass the counties of Haozhou Prefecture along the periphery of Haozhou Prefecture, mainly to cut off the connection between Haozhou and the Jin Army north of Huaihe River.
Ma Shoucheng led the remaining more than 1000 cavalry troops, mainly scout battalions. The task was to inquire about the movement of the Jin army around the two cities of Chuzhou and Chuzhou, do a good job of intelligence work for Qin Tu, and rush to assist Chuzhou, Chuzhou or Qin Tu when necessary. Two thousand cavalry.
Xiao Qi looked at Ma Shoucheng: "General Ma's task is the most arduous, not only to investigate the military situation and prepare for the rescue of the three parties, but also to maintain the smooth flow of the military supply channels of the three parties."
Ma Shoucheng stood up and bowed to Xiao Qi: "General Xiao just feel free to go to the capital to face the Holy Spirit, he will use his head as a guarantee in the end, he will do his best to do the tasks ordered by the general, and he will never dare to slack off in the slightest."
Next, Xiao Qi ordered Lin Zheng to lead [-] infantry troops to guard Chuzhou City. If the Jin army came to attack Chuzhou City, just stand firm and wait for reinforcements, and must not attack rashly.
In Chuzhou City where Zhang Jiangong was located, several thousand infantry were dispatched, bringing the number of their infantry to more than 5000. Their task was to make an offensive posture.
Once Qin Tu took down a certain county town in Haozhou, he immediately sent a thousand infantry to take it over, making a gesture of taking down the Haozhou mansion, so that the Jin army in Haozhou city did not dare to act rashly.
As for the issue of food and grass, if there is a shortage of food and grass, you can ask the state capital behind, and if anyone dares to refuse to give it, he will rob his mother!
Xiao Qi strictly ordered them not to harass the people, but officials at all levels who dared to withhold food and grass and refuse to pay them would be killed if they were killed. If there was any order to punish him, ignore him, and whoever Xiao Qi ordered to pretend to be the boss would be chopped down. .
Xiao Qi's last seemingly lawless order gave these subordinates a reassurance. They were really worried that once Xiao Qi left, all kinds of orders would come down immediately.
What will they do at that time, if they don't listen, they will be disobedient, and those civil officials will always say that the generals are rebellious.
Obedience to orders would be tantamount to betraying Chang Shengying and General Xiao Qi.
Xiao Qi's order just reassures them, anyway, the officials have said that the Changsheng Battalion only listens to General Xiao, and others will cut his mother if they dare to come and stretch out their hands.
My own official has wiped out the entire family of the first-rank Zuoxiang, who among those officials in the court is more awesome than the first-rank Zuoqing Shao Qingcai!
Seeing that these things after he left have been arranged properly, all the generals gathered their subordinates and started various transfers in an orderly manner.
Xiao Qi also ordered the [-] cavalry and [-] infantry troops that he was going to bring, and set off back to Beijing with the old middle official Zhang Qian.
Zhang Qian was very strange about Xiao Qi's sudden transfer of troops, and immediately gave a thumbs up after asking:
"General Xiao will definitely be my No.1 general in Song Dynasty in the future!
Zhang is ashamed, although he has served as the supervisor of the Jiankang Mansion, he is not half as good as the general who knows how to lead the army. I am hopeful in the Song Dynasty! "
Xiao Qi hurriedly said some polite words to him that were not nutritious and flattered each other.
The group quickly passed Yangzhou Mansion and rushed towards the new capital Hangzhou.
This time, in order to give Zhao Shen a reassurance, Xiao Qi pulled a few carts of spoils. Of course, he would not give the emperor such things as gold, silver, silk and satin.
Xiao Qi's several carts were pulling the armor and weapons of the generals of the Jin army who had been killed in these few battles.
The generals of the Jin people who are above a thousand commanders, not to mention other hobbies, they are very concerned about their armor and weapons.
These armors and weapons are not so beautiful in shape, but each piece is strong and sharp, and they are all first-class good things in this era.
Xiao Qi intends to have a good talk with Zhao Shen, these things need to be practical, don't fix those things that look fancy and beautiful, but it takes a lot of work and time to make something, but it ends up being cut in half with a single knife.
This is what Xiao Qi has seen in the previous life materials. The armor and weapons of the Southern Song Dynasty are all beautiful and beautifully crafted. As a result, on the battlefield, the sword cannot fight the enemy's sword. Those beautiful armor are even on the battlefield. Not as good.
He planned to talk to Zhao Shen about this when he came to Beijing this time, because now there was a sign that the soldiers of the Southern Song Dynasty were not qualified to wear armor.
But the armors of those generals have already developed a trend towards exquisiteness.
Xiao Qi is very dissatisfied with this point, you frankly made the battle armor used on the battlefield according to the fashion, do you think the generals died too slowly, or do you want him to wear beautiful clothes when encoffining?
Apart from chatting with Zhang Qian and Zhang Qian along the way, the rest of Xiao Qi was thinking about what issues to discuss with Zhao Shen at that time, and some deviations that need to be corrected in the Southern Song Dynasty.
For Zhao Shen, Xiao Qi is quite confident, because this is Zhao Shen's first Northern Expedition after he ascended the throne.
Although Zhao Shen's first Longxing Northern Expedition in history failed, the new emperor did not lose his will to regain the north.
In the fifth year of Qiandao, that is, in [-], Zhao Yun used Yu Yunwen, who had defeated the Jin army in the "Battle of Quarrying Stones", to enter the court, and promoted him to the right prime minister and privy envoy, and took control of the military and political power. At that time, Zhao Shen actually wanted to The second Northern Expedition was carried out.
It's a pity that the ministers of the Southern Song Dynasty were already content with the status quo, thinking that the Song Dynasty had no worries about food and clothing, and the people's life was getting better, so there should be no more wars.
However, in the Song Dynasty, military generals withered because of suppressing martial arts and promoting literature. Almost all the generals who had ambitions to lead the army were suppressed and demoted by those civil servants.
Although Zhao Shen, the emperor, had a good way of governing the country, his life was quite unhappy.
What pained him the most was that every time an envoy from the Kingdom of Jin came, he had to stay at the bed and stand up to accept the letter of credence.
In addition, the ancestral mausoleum fell to the enemy for a long time, which he regarded as a great shame and humiliation in his heart, so the emperor Zhao Shen lived a very aggrieved life.
Xiao Qi knew that although Longxing's Northern Expedition had failed, the peace talks had not yet started, and the insulting treaty that every time Jin Guo envoys came, they had to stay and stand up to accept the letter of credence hadn't been added yet.
This time, I want to make a big fuss about the mausoleum of the first emperor of the Song Dynasty, which made Zhao Shen ignite the anger of the Northern Expedition, and now because of my appearance, history has changed, and the Northern Expedition of the Southern Song Army is not considered a complete failure.
