Chapter 448 Sima Guang in action (1)(1/2)
The next day, Renchen (the fifth day of the lunar month) in April.
More and more memorials began to arrive in Beijing from Guangxi.
Gao Zunhui, Di Yong, Miao Shizhong, Guan Qi, Cen Ziting, Tian Shiru...
Almost all officials who were qualified to write to the court reported that on the 16th day of the third month of Guiyou, the three groups of Wangshi and others were merged into Jiaozhi, and the Jiaozhi prefectures returned to Yiyi.
This is the characteristic of the Song Dynasty.
The balance between big and small is everywhere, and no one can cover up the sky with one hand.
Naturally, news of the Song Army's victory also spread in Bianjing City.
Bianjing Xinbao was the first to follow up and began to exaggerate.
The headline on the front page was even more ridiculously exaggerated, "Master Wang decided to attack the pass at one hour and six seconds," which made the people of Bianjing a little uncomfortable.
Are the Forbidden Forces that strong?
The military force of the Song Dynasty was actually quite good at the founding of the country.
Taizu, an elite soldier and general in the Taizong era, once conquered the world.
After Zhenmiao, things started to go downhill. By the time they got to Renmiao, the Imperial Guards in Beijing were no longer able to fight.
It was not until the late Emperor ascended the throne that things gradually improved and became stronger.
But, what is going on?
Passing through the pass in one hour and six quarters?
The people in Bianjing are a little uncomfortable with it.
Then, these people bought newspapers and opened them.
Those who knew the inside story were dumbfounded.
Because although the Bianjing Newspaper exaggerated and fabricated some details, the basic content was almost the entire text translated into Chinese, retelling the battle report sent back by Zhang Dun in words that the common people could understand and understand.
not only that!
I don’t know who the Bianjing Xinbao was responsible for. It also introduced in detail the actions of the Song army and the balance of power between the enemy and ourselves before and after the war.
In addition, on the second edition, a map of the Song Army's march was attached. There is no doubt that there is truth in the map, and no one can disbelieve it.
Suddenly, the whole Bianjing paper was expensive!
Countless people rushed to buy and circulate today's Bianjing News.
no way!
This battle was fought by the soldiers of Bianjing themselves - in any case, the foundation of Yulong's first general was the reorganization of the ten commanders of the imperial army in Beijing who were sent by the late emperor to garrison along the border.
And when was the last time that the Imperial Guards in Beijing won a battle as the main force?
I'm afraid it has to go back to the True Temple era.
When did you win so quickly and so beautifully?
Taizong or Taizu?
As a result, the emotions of the people in Bianjing were completely aroused.
Especially the other forbidden troops in Beijing!
Now, when they walk, their waists are straightened and their chests are straightened out.
When I entered the shop or restaurant, my voice was louder than usual.
These people usually hold a copy of "Bianjing New News" in their hands. When they enter the shop, they slap the Bianjing New Newspaper on the counter and shout: "Shop, please bring a corner of 'Yuye Liquor' and cut it."
Half a pound of beef, three pounds of mutton!”
He would also deliberately slap his trousers on the counter, causing the coins to pop out one by one.
The newly minted Yuanfeng Tongbao jingled, and everyone looked at it.
Then, these people will see the soap clothes worn by these soldiers.
When everyone else had looked over, these military men would hold up the Bianjing Newspaper at the top of their lungs and start preaching on the spot.
no way!
The embargo in Beijing has been a disgrace for decades.
Even the people in Bianjing looked down upon them.
Who can bear this?
That’s it on weekdays!
Now that I have the opportunity, I can finally feel proud, but I must not seize the opportunity to publicize it.
Let all the elders in Bianjing know that we are actually very powerful!
Look!
The first general to control the dragon!
In the past, the army was also banned in Beijing!
The number one general in Yulong fights well = the Forbidden Army in Beijing is awesome!
…
Not only the people, but also the news of victory stirred up countless storms.
The entire government and opposition parties were shocked by this quick and hearty victory.
In Sima Guang's mansion, Sima Guang was sitting in the courtyard of the back house, leaning on a chair, listening to Captain Sima Kang reading today's Bianjing News.
"In the 15th year of Renshen, the envoy of Jing Haijun and Qiande, the king of Jiaozhi County, did not report any reply, so Dun sent people to investigate. They all said: Qiande imprisoned the envoys of Song Dynasty in Taiyuan, Jiaozhou, and tortured them day and night. It is said that Qiande once made false statements.
"I am the emperor of the Southern Kingdom, and am I afraid of being coerced by the Northern Kingdom? So I searched and arrested in the country..."
"In accordance with the emperor's edict, on the 16th day of the third month of Guiyou, he ordered General Di Yong, the military supervisor of Guangnan West Road, to join forces with Guihua Prefecture Zhizhou Nongzhihui, Shun'an Prefecture Zhizhou Nongzhihui, and Nandan Prefecture Zhizhou Mo Shi
I can't bear to wait until I return to Huazhou and leave Guangyuan..."
"Su Ziyuan, the magistrate of Yongzhou, Hecen Ziting, etc., sent their troops to go out to the state, to Hualangzhou..."
"Qinzhou and Lianzhou each send their generals out of Sumaozhou..."
"Therefore, Wang Jing, the governor of Jiaozhi Prefecture, Li Su, the prefect of Huanglang Prefecture, Zhang Yan, the prefect of Su Mao Prefecture, Liu Yin, the pseudo prefect of Silang Prefecture, etc., all knew the great righteousness and their hearts were devoted to China.
, resolutely led the people to return to the Ming Dynasty, and sent the troops to surrender."
"Yong and other generals passed through Guangyuan. When Guangyuan's father and elders saw him, they all bowed to the north and cried: Master Wang is coming again, and my father's wife is safe! So they provided grain and grass for the army, and sent young men and women as guides...
"
Sima Guang closed his eyes and listened to what Sima Kang was reading in the Bianjing Newspaper.
His expression was uncertain, which made Sima Kang's voice tremble even as he recited the report.
But the old father didn't say stop, so Sima Kang could only continue to read.
"So, the first general Yulong and the second command of the deputy envoy Xu Kenan of the supply storehouse used five hundred Qingqi to attack the pass in a surprise attack, conquered it, and killed more than a thousand prisoners..."
Sima Guang opened his eyes.
Sima Kang immediately lowered his head.
"Zhang Zihou played well!" Sima Guang commented unexpectedly.
This made Sima Kang even more frightened.
Sima Guang looked at his son, shook his head and said, "In your heart, am I the kind of person who doesn't distinguish between right and wrong?"
As long as the keyword 'Wang Anshi' is not triggered, he can still look at many things objectively.
"Don't dare!" Sima Kang replied with his head lowered.
Sima Guang raised his head and leaned against the cushion of the seat.
Since he is in power, he has naturally read the memorials and reports from the relevant parties that were sent to the capital.
Perhaps Sima Guang lacked practical ability.
But he is very good at finding problems in the details of words.
After all, he was the main author of "Zi Zhi Tong Jian". Although there were hundreds of people assisting him in the entire "Zi Zhi Tong Jian", Liu Yu and Fan Zuyu were fully responsible for the Han and Tang parts.
But other parts were written by him.
After reading so many historical materials, Sima Guang naturally mastered the ability to find the truth in the details of the text.
"In this chapter, Zhang Zihou has already won before sending out troops!" Sima Guang murmured to himself.
"This is a victory calculated by the temple!"
Although most of the memorials do not explicitly state what exactly Zhang Dun did?
But the details have been exposed!
To be continued...
