It is obvious that Zhang Jun needs to bear all the responsibility for the defeat and the loss of troops in this battle, and there is no more excuse.

Everyone can pretend that he had not heard of his verbal slap, but Zhang Jun must take responsibility for the fact that he had really caused a great defeat comparable to the Huaixi Army.

This is not the first time that Zhang Jun has caused military failure.

The defeat of Fuping was the first time, which ruined the last military force established in the Northern Song Dynasty that could confront the Jin Dynasty, ruined the land of Guanzhong, and completely transformed the Northern Song Dynasty into the Southern Song Dynasty.

The Huaixi Army was the second time, ruining the Southern Song Dynasty's 40,000 troops and more than 100,000 people, directly causing the defense emptiness on the front-line battlefield, and also preventing the Southern Song Dynasty from taking advantage of the subsequent storm of the Jin Dynasty's abolishing the pseudo-Qi regime.

This third time, it ruined the main force of the combat army in the Jinghu War Zone of the Southern Song Dynasty, causing Jiangnan West Road to be exposed within the attack range of the bandit army, almost unstoppable, and greatly threatened the strategic security of the Southern Song Dynasty.

The ancients said that things were only three times. Zhang Jun had made three mistakes that were enough to be exhausted to wipe his butt. Do you still have to forgive him?

If he still has to be forgiven, who will bear this sin? Who will bear this responsibility?

Is Zhao Sheng himself?

Did the Song Dynasty really have to treat literati and officials so generously?

As an emperor who has no achievements and administrative foundation, taking the blame and infamy for Zhao Gou is already sad enough for Zhao Xing. If Zhao Xing takes advantage of this failure, Zhao Xing can almost abdicate and give way to the wise.

The court was bustling with civil and military officials, and demanded severe punishment of Zhang Jun and even killed Zhang Jun to thank the world for his voice. The impeachment of Zhang Jun charges towards the palace at a speed of twenty times per hour, and the attack made Zhao Xing have no power to fight back.

The members of Zhang Jun's party who used to support Zhang Jun did not dare to speak now and stopped talking, and only a few people were still talking for Zhang Jun.

For example, Zhang Jun's die-hard supporter Chen Junqing, and Wang Shipeng, an official from the top scorer who Zhang Jun admires very much.

However, the scope of their speech to Zhang Jun cannot involve the matter itself. They just seized the great title of Taizu's legacy, insisted on saving Zhang Jun's life, and could not let Zhang Jun die. As for the others, they dared not say anything.

Because the impact of this defeat was too great.

So Chen Junqing, Wang Shipeng and others were also impeached like a storm with Zhang Jun. Through the impeachment of Chen Junqing and Wang Shipeng, the impeachment storm gradually affected the entire Zhang Jun party.

Under the surging wave, the main and political forces that were originally excluded by Zhao Sheng and Zhang Jun were showing signs of rising heads.

They used Zhang Jun's mistakes to counterattack and count them, tried to confuse the truth and change the concept, tie Zhang Jun's mistakes with Zhang Jun's main battle and radical stance, and tried to stigmatize the main battle and radical stance, thereby creating conditions for the full return of the main and conservatives.

For example, they claimed that this defeat was because of Zhang Jun's impetuousness and recklessness and Shao Hongyuan's arrogant arrogance.

Before this, under Qi Fang's stable military strategy, the bandits on Jiangnan West Road showed no sign of defeating the imperial army.

Qi Fang insisted on the prudent tactics that have always steadily suppressed the bandit army. As long as there is enough time, the bandit army in Luoxiao Mountain will definitely be trapped to death.

Who doesn’t understand the principle of eating up the mountains?

But Zhang Jun didn't believe it, just listened to Shao Hongyuan's slander, took Qi Fang down, and let Shao Hongyuan take over the battle. What's the result?

Isn’t this the new era of Qi Lian Po and Zhao Kuo without using it?

How is Zhang Jun's behavior different from King Zhao back then?

Bah! It will harm the country and the people!

It can be seen that safe tactics are the most suitable for the Song Dynasty, while impatient and aggressive tactics are not suitable for the Song Dynasty at all!

Zhang Jun is a sinner of the Song Dynasty, and his position cannot help the Song Dynasty improve its situation. There are serious problems with the court's grand strategy and it needs to be reflected on!

The overall strategy of the Song Dynasty needs to be updated and it cannot be continued!

This group of war-leaders are simply a group of sinners who harm the country and the people and want to destroy the Song Dynasty!

The Lords and Sects whose power was suppressed to the bottom showed signs of revival through this spring breeze.

Because of this trend, many officials who originally supported Zhang Jun's position also began to waver and began to "reflect" whether what they did was right and whether there was really something wrong.

The dispute over the route within the Song court showed signs of being out of the established track.

Despite the dangerous situation in the government and the opposition, Zhao Xing was still hesitating about how to deal with Zhang Jun.

The first consensus reached between the government and the people was nothing more than to dismiss Zhang Jun, but in addition to this, there was another force pushing Zhao Xing to take more resolute measures.

They demanded that Zhang Jun be executed and that the radicals in the main war could be completely pushed into the abyss so that they could not turn over.

The leader of this power is Zhao Gou.

After Zhao Gou knew that the war on Jiangnan West Road failed to suppress bandits, he called Zhao Xing to Wanshou Palace and scolded Zhao Xing.

The reason is very simple. Zhao Gou was threatened by the rebel bandits across Jiangnan West Road and hated them very much. He hoped that Zhao Sheng would annihilate the bandits as soon as possible and vent his anger on his own.

As a result, the bandits were not resolved, and the entire Song army was wiped out.

Zhao Gou was furious and caught Zhao Xing and scolded him.

He said at the beginning that even if the country was destroyed, Zhang Jun could not be used anymore. Zhao Xing refused to listen and insisted on using Zhang Jun.

OK, you use it, I let you use it, but what is the result?

The entire army was wiped out, and the bandits in the west of Jiangnan were about to become bigger.

what to do?

Who will clean up the mess?

Are you still planning to continue to appoint Zhang Jun?

Can you continue to use him?

Zhao Gou's intervention suddenly increased the urgency in Zhao Xing's heart, and he realized that something bad was going.

However, Zhao Xing's understanding is somewhat different from Zhao Gou's true intentions.

Zhao Gou did not intend to threaten Zhao Xing's status and power. Zhao Xing was the emperor he chose. Ensuring Zhao Gou's safety and happy life was one of Zhao Xing's ruling foundations. Zhao Gou had no motivation to threaten Zhao Xing's power, and the fact that escaped at the last minute had already cut off his possibility of restoration.

However, Zhao Gou's mentality as the Supreme Emperor is different from that of the ordinary Supreme Emperor.

Because he took the initiative to give way to Zhao Xing, he thought he had the power and qualification to guide Zhao Xing and scold Zhao Xing.

Zhao Gou had no idea of ​​restoration. The reason why he intervened in the government was for his own safety.

The power of the Ming Dynasty and the threat from the Ming army made Zhao Gou feel a little worried in his extravagant life, so he was stubborn and even paranoid in his hope of peace and peace in the country without any worries.

This way he can feel safe.

However, after he abdicated, Zhao Xing not only did not bring back the peace of the Southern Song Dynasty, but instead made the situation worse and he could not even suppress any thieves, and even made the thieves bigger.

He could not open fire at Zhao Sheng and asked Zhao Sheng to hand over the throne. He could only open fire at Zhang Jun and asked Zhao Sheng to extinguish Zhang Jun.

Zhang Jun must die!

Zhao Gou was very angry and very annoyed. He summoned Zhao Sheng and scolded him, not allowing him to use Zhang Jun again, and described Zhang Jun as a bastard who harmed the country and the people. He must be executed and he cannot continue to harm the Song Dynasty.

Zhao Gou even said that if you don’t solve Zhang Jun, then you will solve me first. I would rather die while the mountains and rivers are still there than when the mountains and rivers are broken!

Zhao Gou's resolute expression made Zhao Xing very panicked. He had no idea what he should do.

He was indeed very dissatisfied with Zhang Jun, and wanted to teach him a lesson, or even depose him, but he was executed...

"The Emperor of Tai's clarification has been made that the dynasty has not killed scholars and officials since its establishment, and it has not been broken so far, so... this is the legacy of Taizu."

"The reign of Taizu's teachings are from Taizu's teachings. Do you have nothing more to do? Who said you must kill him in public? How did you, the emperor, do it?"

Zhao Gou's words shocked Zhao Sheng. He suddenly became distracted and thought of many cases of being sent to death because of a crime.

"Taihuang, this..."

"Emperor, don't blame me for not warning you. If you use Zhang Jun and others to take power, I will not stop you. However, Zhang Jun offended too many people. How many people are not satisfied with him taking power in the court and the outside world? You should have a clear idea in your heart."

Zhao Gou's face became so gloomy that it was dripping with water.

"The wall falls and everyone pushes it. If you don't let them push it, they can only transfer their resentment to you. How should you deal with it at that time? Since ancient times, there have been only ministers who share the worries for the king, and no ministers who share the worries for the ministers. You must understand your position!"
