【1048】Reformed
All the two special envoys who went to the border and Xin Qiji's office set out overnight. In addition to the 600 elite soldiers drawn by Li Xianzhong and Lize, as well as the 50 middle and upper-level generals drawn by Li Ze, there was also one who brought Li Xianzhong and Zhang Jun's official documents. After all, the front-line army had to make a statement in the mainland, and it was not easy for Hao Jun to pay for the rest in the middle.
In addition, Zhang Jun also had to return to his base and leave the city with Hao Jun later.
Hao Jun, Maxim, Hang Xian'er, and Lu Xingzong met with everyone who set out with him, explained the matter of leaving the city, and got on the carriage and drove out of the city.
Due to yesterday's incident, the Jin soldiers were more cautious in their defense and steadily consolidated their defense from the city gate at the other end to this side. Therefore, although there was a temporary camp outside the city gate at one arrow, there was no iron wall encirclement between the city gate on both sides. I didn't expect that the Song army, which should be held, would leave the city. When they saw a brightly-clad team rushing out of the city, so many people didn't seem to be going out to rescue soldiers. They subconsciously thought that the elite troops were rushing to the camp gate, so they quickly left the stove and shrank the team to make a defensive posture.
Hao Jun did not want to cause casualties here. He had already discussed with Maxim before leaving the city to fight a psychological war with the Jin soldiers. After the city gate was closed, the entire team calmly played the edge ball with the Jin soldiers and marched swaying across the ground with an arrow.
The Jin soldiers had not yet come to their senses from yesterday's inexplicable wonders. At this moment, they were even more confused. They could not tell who was in the carriage. There was something strange, suspicious and deceitful. In addition, the Song army's powerful bows and crossbows were lined up on the city walls, so they did not dare to attack rashly and watched the team go away in a daze.
It was not until they could see each other with the Jin soldiers that the elite generals who had been preparing for war relaxed and looked at Hao Jun's carriage at the same time. This was the first time that they were so close to the Jin soldiers, and they had really come here so staggeringly. It was just like dreaming, the immortal's plan was indeed wonderful.
In fact, Hao Jun and Maxim have been preparing for action, and have just felt relieved and looked at each other and smiled.
Li Xianzhong and others on the city wall also calmly undergrounded the city wall. According to the plan, they would only defend and not fight. They would wait for Yu Yunwen and the troops along the line to raise troops to affect the situation here.
After moving forward for more than an hour, Zhang Jun confirmed that he was safe and then left with his entourage. Hao Jun and the others continued to move forward.
Hao Jun was worried that there were guys in the court who were ignorant of going forward and backward, and the speed along the way was much faster than when he rushed to Sujun, but he just made do with it and told the carriage not to be too bumpy.
On the morning of June 1st, Hao Jun and others met Xin Qiji.
As soon as he exchanged greetings, Hao Jun learned that the imperial edict had not arrived, and his heart couldn't help but skip a beat!
According to the original plan, after Xin Qiji saw the special envoy sent by Li Xianzhong on May 26, he began to prepare within his ability. Zhao Bocong received a letter from Hao Jun about the 27th. Even if such a major event had already begun to fight with the Jin people, it would probably have to be discussed for one day. Then, there should be an order to send it to Xin Qiji on the 28th. Why is there no movement?
It was originally planned that Yu Yunwen would raise an army on June 1st, which is today. Hao Jun's plan would definitely not be able to arrive, but it doesn't matter if the imperial edict was not arrived. This was originally his wish, and he had already sharpened his sword and supported him, so he dared to raise an army on time.
But the army along the line was different. They were submissive to the prestige of Hao Jun and Li Xianzhong, as well as Shao Hongyuan's head threat, and even Gong Yechun's supernatural oppression. It should be fine to prepare for war according to Hao Jun's plan, but if there was no imperial edict, I am afraid that few people would dare to send troops. That would be a big deal. Not only will Yu Yunwen fall into a fight alone, but Li Xianzhong will also fall into an embarrassing situation. Moreover, Li Xianzhong's prestige in the Song army, as the commander-in-chief of the new battle, was very unfavorable to this war.
The most important thing is that Hao Jun is no longer a person inside and outside, and he also puts Gong Yechun, Yang Zheng and Codya on the brink of danger!
There is almost no possibility of accidents in delivering letters to the capital. Is there any guy in the court who is ignorant of advancing and retreating?
Hao Jun couldn't help but startled from his heart. Is this immortal not showing up in this time and space for nearly 20 years, and no one takes it seriously? If you don't teach some shameless officials a lesson, it seems that this immortal has no power!
Hao Jun was in no mood to discuss life with Xin Qiji. After a while, he set out again and let Xin Qiji go to Beijing with him.
On the way, Hao Jun had a clearer understanding of the "reformed person" through chatting with Xin Qiji, combined with his memory of history and the introduction of Hang Xian'er.
Shi Hao was Zhao Bocong's teacher. Because he was accused of assisting Zhao Bocong ascended the throne, he has now been appointed as the Minister of Shangshu Right Pushe, the right prime minister, and is so crazy that he is out of bounds.
In his thoughts, he disagreed with the heroes and patriots who returned from the Jin-occupied area, and even discriminated against them. He once said that there were no heroes in the Song Dynasty people in the Jin-occupied area. If there were, why wouldn't they get up to destroy the Jin-cited people?
His opinion is simply a brainless person. The government and court have the money and food of officers, soldiers, but they ran away early. Why can the people in the occupied areas defeat the enemy?
He despised the "reformed man" who came from the Jin occupied areas as "reformed man", and did not agree to entrusting important tasks for "reformed man". He often suspected that he had a different intention and advocated only giving an idle official position without real power. Originally, the Southern Song Dynasty insisted on the national policy of suspicion of military generals since the founding of the Song Dynasty, and now he is even more suspicious of military generals among the "reformed man". Those who killed countless Jin people like Xin Qiji were no exception.
After thinking about it repeatedly, Hao Jun felt a little relieved. I hope someone only supports Shi Hao's brainless view, but he just didn't issue an order to Xin Qiji, otherwise blood would be splattered in the court this time!
Because the matter was urgent, they did not rest at night and traveled day and night. The next morning, they arrived at the northern gate of the capital.
The Grand Tutor Wu Jin sent people to guard the various city gates. According to Hao Jun’s letter, he planned that Hao Jun should arrive in the capital today or tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. Today, he would personally guard the northern city gate where Hao Jun had a high chance of passing so that Hao Jun could grasp the situation as soon as possible.
Wu Jin is already old and sees Hao Jun, Hang Xian'er, Maxim, and Lu Xingzong who are still in style, and is extremely envious. Hao Jun finally pulled the topic back.
Hao Jun was relieved when Wu Jinyi introduced the situation before. It turned out that under Wu Jin's supervision, the imperial edict issued to Yu Yunwen and the troops along the route had long been sent away. In order to ensure that the 100,000 troops along the route had been invested in advance on June 3, the eunuchs were ordered to divide the nine routes.
However, because of his status as a converted person, Xin Qiji was obstructed by a group of ministers with high self-represented ministers, mainly Shi Hao, because Shi Hao took the lead, the imperial edict drawn up by Zhao Bocong was delayed.
Wu Jin said that this Northern Expedition involves a lot and made major adjustments according to Hao Jun's plan. There are many follow-up matters that need to be discussed. At this moment, the morning court must have not been dispersed. I asked Hao Jun whether to go to the palace directly or take a rest first.
Hao Jun shook his head. According to the original plan, on June 6, Xin Qiji would lead the 60,000 elite troops gathered in Chengyin to set off. A few days ago, many joints did not buy Xin Qiji's account. Of course, this is no wonder they are. Xin Qiji is currently a low-ranking official position, but the preparations for the next step are extremely nervous and busy, and they can't be delayed.
So, Wu Jin ordered people to lead the elite and generals to the Grand Tutor's Mansion to rest, and accompanied Hao Jun into the palace himself.
