Chapter 193 People’s Braveness
----------
"What should we do now?" Seeing the city gate closed, Gao Qiu felt extremely anxious and couldn't help but ask.
"Sir, let's go south. There are our Forbidden Army's barracks in the south, and there are our Forbidden Army's soldiers there." A shi guard next to him said.
"Yes, there are military camps and soldiers in the south. Let's go, let's go to the south now. Let's go quickly." Gao Qiu, riding on a big horse, turned around and left. The guards next to him hurriedly followed him to the south.
All the soldiers of the Forbidden Army are on foot, and those on horseback must be generals. However, Yue Fei did not deliberately eliminate these generals. Judging from their leadership skills, they are really vulnerable. Even if these generals are kept alive, they will not pose any threat to Liangshan.
.
"The gap between the Forbidden Army and the Western Army is so big, it's really unexpected." At this moment, all the Liangshan soldiers had the same idea. There were more than 100,000 enemies, and they only had a few thousand people, but they actually won such a charge.
, and they suffered almost no casualties.
"Brother, there are many people standing on the city wall. Look at that person wearing an imperial robe. Could he be the current emperor?" Zhang Xian followed Yue Fei and said suddenly.
"Oh, Emperor?" Yue Fei's heart moved when he heard this.
He rode forward alone on horseback, and the imperial soldiers who rushed towards him were stabbed to the ground by him.
When they got closer and closer to the city wall, Zhao Ji, Cai Jing and others above the city wall had already moved. These people were about to leave the city wall in a hurry and return to a safe place.
There was a sneer on Yue Fei's face. He took the Tyrant Bow from the horse with his left hand, then put an arrow on it and shot an arrow towards Zhao Ji who was wearing imperial robes on the city wall.
After a sharp sound, the arrow hit Zhao Ji accurately, but the distance below was too far from the city wall, so when the arrow hit Zhao Ji, he didn't have much strength. Zhao Ji was only slightly injured, with marks on his clothes.
A small hole appeared on his back, and a small wound appeared on his back.
"Ah! I'm dead!" Zhao Ji suddenly fainted and fell to the ground. The ministers, guards, and imperial guards beside him were terrified. Countless people hugged Zhao Ji and walked down the city wall.
When Zhao Ji woke up, he was already in the palace. He opened his eyes, looked around, and found ministers everywhere. Then he sighed quietly and said: "Is this already a hell? Everyone
My dear, I never thought that we would still be able to meet each other in hell."
The ministers beside him couldn't laugh or cry. Cai Jing took a step forward and said: "Your Majesty, you are still in Yangshi. We are now in the palace in Bianliang and there is no danger."
Zhao Ji was stunned for a moment, then an expression of ecstasy appeared on his face. He moved his body, and suddenly felt a sharp pain behind him, and couldn't help but scream. It turned out that the wound behind him was small, but given his identity, he survived
It has been decades since I was castrated, and I have never suffered any trauma like this, so I cannot bear it at all.
The imperial doctors next to him hurriedly stepped forward to comfort Zhao Ji. After Zhao Ji's mood stabilized, the ministers next to him came to comfort him one after another.
"Have the enemy troops retreated?" Zhao Ji asked while breathing heavily.
"Your Majesty, the enemy troops are still under the city." Cai Jing said.
"Ah? Still under the city? Tell me how to defend the city? Can you defend Bianliang City?" Zhao Ji asked with a pale face.
"Your Majesty, I'm afraid it won't work. You saw today that the Imperial Army is vulnerable to the enemy." Cai Jing said with a bitter smile.
"Isn't the Forbidden Army the strongest army in the Song Dynasty? How could it become like this? How could it become like this?" Zhao Ji said in despair.
"Your Majesty, the Forbidden Army has not fought for more than a hundred years and has long since lost much fighting power." At this moment, a minister suddenly stood up and said.
"Oh. Is that so? What's your name?" Zhao Ji looked at the minister and couldn't help but ask.
"Weak minister Huang Qianshan." said the minister.
"The Imperial Army is out of action. How do you think we should defend the city?" Zhao Ji just nodded and then asked immediately.
"Your Majesty, we can gather the common people and make them brave and let them defend the city." At this time, Qin Hui stood up again and said.
"Let the people defend the city? Yes, that's right. After the enemy troops enter the city, they will definitely not spare the people of Bianliang City. Let the people defend the city, and the people will definitely use their full strength. This is a good idea! Qin Hui, you are worthy of being the emperor.
Shi Zhongcheng is far more resourceful than anyone else." Zhao Ji praised him hurriedly, and the faces of Cai Jing and others next to him changed slightly, and their eyes towards Qin Hui became increasingly unkind.
"Your Majesty, thank you for your reward. The enemy army is too strong. I am going to summon the people overnight. I just want the people to help defend the city. I am afraid I need some gold and silver awards, and even officers and titles to reward those people who have made meritorious service in defending the city. Your Majesty, please
You gave me this right." Qin Hui knelt on the ground and said.
"Okay, I promise you. As much gold and silver as you need, just go to the treasury and get it directly." Zhao Ji said hurriedly.
Now he only thinks about being able to defend Bianliang City, and he doesn't care about so many things.
"Your Majesty, please think twice!" Cai Jing next to him was shocked. He did not expect that Zhao Ji would give such important rights to Qin Hui. When Qin Hui mastered such rights and used the people of Bianliang City to form an army, wouldn't Qin Hui
Having become a major force in Bianliang City, when the time comes Cai Jing will act based on Qin Hui’s face?
"Your Majesty, the enemy is outside the city and is attacking the city at all times! For us, there is no need to delay. I will go and do this right now!" Qin Hui said with a sneer.
"Okay, you go and do it now." Zhao Ji said.
Qin Hui left the palace with a sneer on his face. When Qin Hui left, Cai Jing, Yang Jian, Liang Shicheng and others were still trying to persuade Zhao Ji to think twice. However, Zhao Ji was frightened today and heard them talking non-stop. He felt very upset.
, and before he knew it, he fell asleep again.
Cai Jing, Yang Jian, Liang Shicheng and others smiled bitterly and were speechless. Cai Jing said: "Tell me, how should we check and balance this Qin Hui now? This kid, just over thirty years old, is so experienced. Sooner or later he will become a serious problem for us."
Yang Jian said: "How about we also organize civilian bravery? Or, we can organize the eunuchs in the harem and let these eunuchs go to the city wall to fight for His Majesty. What do you think?"
Cai Jing was stunned for a moment, and then kept shaking his head. He felt that Yang Jian's idea was not reliable at all. Those eunuchs were all timid and afraid of death, and it was impossible for them to go to the city wall to fight.
However, Liang Shicheng, the "hidden prime minister" in the late Northern Song Dynasty, who was also an eunuch himself, felt that this attention was quite good.
The three of them discussed for a while, and finally Cai Jing said: "You two organize the eunuchs. I have sent someone to write to Lord Tong Guantong. He should send troops to the capital. Lord Tong Guantong's men are all Western troops."
Jing Rui, when he comes, we will be the first to eradicate Qin Hui."
After Qin Hui left the palace, he summoned the people overnight to form a people's army. He thought that the enemy troops were outside, and the people would spontaneously stop the corresponding people's army. However, in fact, the people did not do so at all. Even though he was appointed as Yushi Zhongcheng and Imperial Envoy
The people were summoned as an adult, but no people were willing to stand up and defend the city.
In the original history, when Master Nv invaded, the imperial army was vulnerable and was easily defeated by Master Nv. Later, the monarchs and ministers of Bianliang City relied on the people in the city to defend the city, and they were able to block Master Nv for a period of time. However,
At that time, Nv Zhenren had a bad reputation, and everywhere she went was in ruins. The people of Bianliang City were in danger, so naturally they stepped forward to defend the city for the Song Dynasty monarchs. But now Liangshan, although it is
The imperial court recognized Liangshan as a "bandit", but in fact Liangshan had an excellent reputation among the people. Liangshan never robbed homes, and even distributed land to poor people. The governor of Liangshan was even called "timely rain". Such "
Even if "thieves and bandits" enter Bianliang City, the threat will be much smaller than that of real women in later generations. Therefore, it is no longer possible to rely on the people to stand up and form people's bravery.
"Your Majesty has a decree. Anyone who is willing to resist the Liangshan bandits can immediately receive 10 taels of silver! If you are willing, come forward!" Qin Hui stood in front and shouted loudly.
After these words were shouted, a few people came forward, but the number was still very small.
After thinking about it, Qin Hui gritted his teeth and said: "Anyone who stands up can get a hundred taels of silver. You can stand up now."
The people below were surprised when they heard the news of millions of grains of silver, and now many people stood up.
Qin Hui was only in one neighborhood now, and found that there were thousands of people standing up. He was overjoyed, and then made other promises, saying: "You will compete in martial arts later. The most powerful one will be awarded the title of partial general, and the rest will also follow suit."
There will be rewards. When the time comes, you leaders will all be officials of the imperial court."
When these words were said, hundreds of people stood up below. All of these hundreds of people were strong and strong, and they practiced martial arts on weekdays. These people had excited smiles on their faces. They were facing the imperial court.
came from the official position.
Qin Hui was busy with this matter all night, and by the time it dawned the next day, he had already obtained 30,000 "troops". At this moment, these 30,000 "troops" had already arrived on the city wall, taking over from the previous Forbidden Army. In addition to
In addition to these 30,000 troops, Qin Hui still gathered people in Bianliang City to form an army.
The performance of this army of 30,000 common people was much better than that of the Forbidden Army. When Liang Shan was attacking below, although the army composed of these common people was afraid, not many dodges.
Gao Qiu has now arrived at the Forbidden Army camp in the south. In the Forbidden Army camp in the south, the composition of the soldiers here is somewhat similar to that of Qingfeng Village where Hua Rong used to be. The soldiers form organizations such as military villages, and usually work in the military camp.
The village farmed. All the soldiers were tenant farmers of the generals, and they occasionally trained on weekdays.
Speaking of which, the Imperial Guards here are much better than the Imperial Guards in Bianliang City.
After Gao Qiu arrived here, he visited one village after another and quickly gathered tens of thousands of forbidden troops.
"Sir, are we going to rescue Bianliang City right now?" a subordinate followed Gao Qiu and asked.
"Rescue Bianliang City? What nonsense are you talking about? The Liangshan army was so fierce that one hundred thousand of us were defeated. How can we defeat the Liangshan army with only tens of thousands of people now?" Gao Qiu cursed angrily.
"What do you mean, sir?" the person next to me asked in a low voice.
"Let's go to Jiangnan!" Gao Qiu thought carefully for a while and said.
"Going to Jiangnan?" The people next to him were shocked.
"That's right. We will take these troops to Jiangnan, and then go to Jiangnan to continue to form King Qin's army. When the time comes, when we have enough troops, we will come to Bianliang to rescue them," Gao Qiu said.
After Gao Qiu finished speaking, everyone around him was shocked. It would take countless time for them to go to Jiangnan and form King Qin's army. By then, either the Liangshan army had retreated, or Bianliang City had been captured, and they would still be there if they came again.
Does it work?
But they didn't know what Gao Qiu was thinking. Through this incident, Gao Qiu found that he was disgusted by the emperor. In this case, he planned to lead his army to the south of the Yangtze River and become a prince, just like the current general of the Western Army.
