Preparation for war

On the 1st, Shi Yisheng and others crossed the river in Zhenjiang Prefecture. On the 16th, they crossed Huaibei and returned.

On the 6th of the month, the chief and deputy chief and deputy Jin Dians Da Huaizhong, and the Nowan Wendujin bowed to the deceased Queen Mother Wei in the Cining Hall. Shi Ju read the tribute aloud. On the 9th, Ye Yi asked that Liu Yunsheng was appointed as the chief and deputy chief and deputy Jin Dians. In addition to thanking the Jin Kingdom for coming to celebrate the sacrifice, Zhao Gou also secretly ordered them to investigate whether Wanyan Liang really had the intention of invading the south.

On the 5th, Zhao Gou issued an edict to establish Zhao Kuangyin's seventh-generation grandson, Zhao Defang's descendant, Zhao Yuan, the prince of Pu'an County, and was named Zhao Wei. On the 7th, Zhao Wei was appointed as the governor of Ningguo, Kaifu Yitong Sansi, and Jianwang. Before this, Zhao Gou used a trick to test the character of the two children in order to block the mouths of Zhao Yu, the prince of Enping County, and Queen Wu, and used a trick to test the character of the two children: 0 palace maids were distributed to Zhao Yuan and Zhao Yu. Zhao Yu received these 10 palace maids and hugged them, which was so happy. Zhao Yuan's teacher Shi Hao warned Zhao Yuan, "This is the emperor who uses this to test you, and you must not do anything." After a few days, Zhao Gou indeed recalled all the palace maids for inspection. The 10 people given to Zhao Yuan were still virgins, and the 10 people given to Zhao Yu were no longer perfect. In this way, Zhao Yuan won the last level thrillingly...

At this time, Empress Wei, who happened to disagree with the establishment of Zhao Yuan, passed away. Empress Wu had nothing to say. Zhang Tao secretly reported to establish the crown prince. Fan Rugui, a prison envoy of Lizhou Lutou, sealed the memorials of famous officials from the Hejiayou period, a total of 6 letters (all of which were persuaded by Emperor Renzong to choose to establish the crown prince among the royal family) and presented them... So, King Jian Zhao Wei was named in this way.

In the early month, Zhang Wang, Xu Yuan and other people from Donghai County, Haizhou, East Shandong Road gathered to rebel. Wanyan Liang sent Xu Wen and Zhang Hongxin to lead the 900th boat army to conquer. "I am not in a town, I want to try the boat army."

On the 1st, the deputy governor He Yunzhong returned from his envoy to the Jin Kingdom and reported that the Jin Kingdom would inevitably lose the alliance, so the Song Dynasty was ready for it.

Among the people who rebel in Donghai County, Jin Dynasty, was named Li Xiu. He secretly contacted Song Zhao, deputy general manager of Huainan East Road of the Southern Song Dynasty, and said that he wanted to return to the south. But now it is a sensitive period. On the one hand, the Southern Song Dynasty felt that this was true, but on the other hand, he doubted whether he would be the vanguard of the Jin army's southward army. So on the 17th, Liu Guangfu, deputy general manager of the cavalry and infantry army of Jiangnan, was appointed as deputy general manager of Huainan, and stationed in Chuzhou to prepare for it.

Before Liu Guangfu took office, Li Xiu sent someone to secretly meet with the acting governor of Chuzhou Xu Zongyan for support. Xu Zongyan refused on the grounds that he was afraid of causing a border quarrel.

On the 7th, Zhao Yu, the Prince of Enping, was appointed as the three departments of Kaifu Yitong, and sentenced the official affairs of the ranks and established the Shaoxing Mansion. But from now on, he was designated as the emperor's nephew...

On April 6, Yelu Yi, the deputy envoy who was on a mission to the Southern Song Dynasty, was punished 100 times and was removed from office. Shi Yisheng was cooked to death.

Due to Yang Cunzhong's suggestion, the Southern Song Dynasty court decided to establish two armies in Jingnan Prefecture and Jiangzhou. On May 4, Liu Qi was appointed as the commander of the army in Jingnan Prefecture, Daqi. On the 8th, Qi Fang was appointed as the commander of the army in Jiangzhou Prefecture, Daqi.

In June, Xu Wen defeated Zhang Wang and Xu Yuan, and the rebellion in Donghai County was pacified.

On July 5, Wanyan Liang issued an order that "the people of Donghai County who were wronged by Zhang Wang and others will be explained." On the 6th, Zhang Hongxin stayed in Laizhou on Shandong East Road because of his ineffective fight against the thief and was punished by a hundred pokers.

In order to fight the Southern Song Dynasty, a total mobilization began in the Great Jin Dynasty. Wanyan Liang ordered that Ding Chong, a Chinese ethnic group under the jurisdiction of the Jin Dynasty and various prefectures and counties, would join the army, and all those over 0 years or below 50 years old. Under this force, the gathered army reached the legendary level, and many versions could not determine how many...

According to Wanyan Liang himself, his military strength in the southern expedition was 5 million...

According to the most famous poem written by Wanyan Liang himself, it is 1 million...

According to the verification of Mr. Wang Zengyu, a master of the Song Dynasty, this southern expedition, Wanyan Liang was the central army of 170,000, Zhejiang East Navy, West Shu Road and South Han Road, a total of 70,000 troops, a total of 10,000 troops...

Even if it was only 10,000, let’s take a look at what this meant to the Jin Kingdom at that time: the total population of the Jin Kingdom was 5.5 million households, with a population of about 6 million. So we can conclude that in this war, the Jin Kingdom raised about one soldier for every 100 people...

So how to cultivate it?

First of all, there are horses. The Jin army usually had two horses and three horses in battle. At this time, the Khitan uprising had not yet broken out. The horse farming land was very safe. After more than ten years of peace talks in Shaoxing, the assembly of horses was fine in principle. However, the actual operation was difficult. I tried my best to confiscate the special horses of civil servants, and only collected nearly 600,000 horses. During transportation, about 1/10 of them were lost. In this way, before the war, the horse content of the troops was far from meeting the requirements, and at most only 80%...

There is also a large army of grain, which is calculated based on the daily appetite of 1 kilogram per person, which is 00,000 kilograms per day. According to the yield of about 10 kilograms per mu during the Song Dynasty, it means that the yield of several thousand acres per day is about to be eaten. It is almost the same as the major locust plague that has not been encountered in a century...

Some people may say that food is consumed every day, and these people have to eat even if they are not in the army, so the calculation is wrong? No! There is the most fundamental difference here!

The Jin army was not a system of military troops, not farming in peacetime, or going out to fight during wartime. They were pure farmers in normal times, and could support themselves and pay taxes to the country. But as a soldier, they were soldiers, and began to consume purely. Every time they went in and out, it was an exponential burden for the country!

The above is just a small investment, but only maintains the most basic conditions for the army, and the maximum expense - weapons are not included. Speaking of Jin army weapons, they are very distinctive and have achieved the ultimate in Chinese history in some aspects.

Their bows and arrows are very simple, even primitive. The strongest bow recorded in historical records is no more than 7 buckets, which are neither beautiful nor powerful. Their style can be referred to as the Qing army bows and arrows displayed in the Ten Kings Pavilion of the Forbidden City in Shenyang. They are simply used by natives...

7 Dou? Yue Fei's bow power is stone! This makes it understand why when the Song and Jin armies shot at each other, the Jurchens would be defeated. The bow power was not strong, and there were few arrows. Jurchen cavalry usually carried no more than 100 arrows, and at most about 00. This is far from comparable to the later Mongolian army. But even so, multiplied by a huge base of 00,000, the number was extremely amazing. "The Jin side built a palace in Nanjing, and also built Zhongdu, and the military equipment and wood made in all directions were all given to the people. Arrow feathers were one foot to a thousand coins, and the villages often vertebrate cattle to supply tendons and leather, as well as birds, magpies, dogs, and pigs. They were all killed and were scattered in the territory."

This is the shortcomings of the Jurchen army. Let’s look at its strengths: the characteristic of the Jin cavalry is the character “heavy”. They wear 58 Song jin heavy armor (about 70 jin today), plus a helmet with only eyes exposed, and a vest on the horse, weighing more than 100 jin. This is just an ordinary cavalry. If you are fully armed elite soldiers, they are “all men and horses are wearing armor, with one eight-edged stick or a knife, a gun is 12 meters long, a bow and arrow are behind, the bow force is only seven dou, and the arrow is less than a hundred arrows.”

These things are all kinds of high-end products that can only be made by professional workshops at that time. They are all money! And they are multiplied by a base of 00,000!

The above is still only standard configuration, and the real special tools need to be calculated separately. For example, if the siege requires ladders, goose cars, navy forces require loaches, building boats, marching requires tents, transporting grain, etc. The Jin Kingdom, which has been in vain for more than ten years, suddenly started to operate at a rapid speed. How could it be so difficult to say!

In August, Liang Qiu, Minister of the Ministry of Revenue of the Great Jin Dynasty, and Minister of War Xiao Dewen, conscripted all the male men of the Jurchen, Khitan and Xi tribes across the country, and obtained 40,000 troops, and divided them into two armies: the strong ones were called the army, and the old ones were called Alishan. Gao Huaizheng, the assistant minister of the Ministry of Personnel of the Great Jin Dynasty, and 15 others, brought silver medals, and signed military envoys in all 15 routes across the country, except for Zhongdu Road, which made weapons and Nandu Road, which built Bianjing, and obtained 70,000 troops, and divided them into 7 armies.

Wanyan Liang was about to invade, and at this time, the powerful navy was its capable of protecting the Southern Song regime! Now, there are more than 10,000 elite navy troops in western Zhejiang and Tongzhou, under the jurisdiction of Zhu Yi, the guardian of Pingjiang Prefecture. But how could Zhu Yi, a civil servant, resist Wanyan Liang's army that was swaying? The situation requires the appearance of military generals! Therefore, when Yue Fei was in the Chuzhou procuratorate [31 Novel Network                                                                                                                                                                                                

On October, Wanyan Liang ordered the guards of Wanyan Pulian and four others to capture thieves in Shandong, Hedong, Hebei, and Zhongdu, and pacify public order. He also recruited sailors from all over the country, and obtained tens of thousands of people.

On the other day, Yu Yunwen and Meng Sigong were appointed as the chief and deputy envoy of He Dajin Zhengdan. Xu Du and Su Shen were appointed as the envoy of He Dajin's birthday. In the Jin court, Yu Yunwen made Wanyan Liang, who had always despised the Southern Song Dynasty, look at each other with admiration!

Yu Yunwen is handsome, 6 feet and 4 inches tall, which is nearly meter tall. This is really not low-key. Not to mention the Song Dynasty, even the Jurchens felt disgusted when they saw it. At a banquet, the Jurchens brought a bow and said with a smile, "Come on, master, shoot an arrow and take a look." It is obvious that they want to see the fun of the Southern Song literati. So what if they are tall? A weak and weak waste! However, Yu Yunwen took the bow and shot it, hitting the bull's eye, ruining the good mood of the Jurchen nobles. Later, Yu Yunwen looked at it carefully in the north, and after returning to Jiangnan, he reported that "the Jin Kingdom will launch a war in the near future, and everyone is ready there." This bad mood of the Southern Song nobles also...

On the 4th, Liu Qi was summoned urgently and came to Lin'an soon! Your army is temporarily under the control of Li Dao!

On the 16th, Chen Junqing impeached Liu Bao, the commander of the Zhenjiang Prefecture Army in the front of the imperial army, and Liu Bao was immediately dismissed as the deputy chief of the Fujian Road Horse and Infantry Army.

On the 18th, Liu Qi, the commander of the army in the Jingnan Prefecture, was urgently appointed as the commander of the army in the Zhenjiang Prefecture, the commander of the army in the Jingnan Prefecture, and Li Dao, the commander of the right army in the Jingnan Prefecture, was urgently promoted to the commander of the army in the Jingnan Prefecture, the commander of the army in the Jingnan Prefecture, the commander of the army in the Right Army in the Jingnan Prefecture, was urgently promoted to the commander of the army in the Jingnan Prefecture, the commander of the army in the Jingnan Prefecture.

On January 1, Tang Siddie stopped his prefecture.

This month, Wanyan Liang appointed Huang Yuse, a surrendered general Kong Yanzhou, who was a beast, to be the one who stayed in Kaifeng, Nanjing. Soon, Kong Yanzhou passed away. He said, "If you attack Song, take Huainan first."

Wanyan Liang strictly prohibited court officials from drinking. Except for diplomatic occasions with the Song, Western Xia and Goryeo, the rest of the drinkers were executed. Wanyan Jing and Wanyan Shuang gathered at the home of the son-in-law Wanyan Tanzhen on the day of the beginning of spring. After Wanyan Liang learned about it, he was furious that "the military service, Fang Yin was forbidden to drink all officials. Do you know?" The three of them leaned to the ground and asked to die. Wanyan Liang finally forbidden the death penalty of the three of them because of his close relatives, and he blamed Wanyan Tanzhen for seventy and demoted to the governor of the Anwu Army. Wanyan Jing and Wanyan Shuang were respectively punished by one hundred, demoted to the governor of Luanzhou and the governor of Guihuazhou.

This year, Li Renxiao, the Emperor Renxiao of Western Xia, was appointed as the father of the empress dowager. Ren Dejing, who made great contributions to quelling civil strife in the middle of the country, was the King of Chu. Ren Dejing relied on his dual identity as a father-in-law and prime minister, and became more domineering, powerful, and almost the same as the emperor in the court. However, Xia Renzong's tolerance and indulgence for this nominal grandfather was almost unbelievable! The tradition of the Western Xia people is about to evolve into a crisis of national division!

Xia Renzong extremely admired Han culture. During his tenure, schools were established in all prefectures and counties in Xixia, with 000 students. The Imperial College was established in Beijing, and primary schools were built in the imperial palace, and all the royal family members were required to go to school aged 7 to 15. Li Renxiao and Empress Gang often came to teach. Confucius became Emperor Wenxuan from Dangxiang people, and built Confucius Temples across the country, etc. In a word, in addition to the different hairstyles, he completely imitated the Song Dynasty!
