Feng Kun held the warrant from the Jinyiwei headquarters and was silent for a long time.
It wasn't that he questioned the headquarters' order, but that he suddenly discovered that this was actually the emperor's secret order.
The emperor personally issued an order to arrange this operation, which undoubtedly means that the emperor attaches great importance to this matter.
This story can only succeed and cannot fail.
Feng Kun slowly raised his head and looked at Lin He, and said in a serious voice: "Lin Baihu, how many people have you brought?"
Lin He cupped his hands and replied: "Under the military order of Marquis Yan, I took a man from a hundred households to sneak into Shangjing disguised as a caravan, and there are two other men from a hundred households lurking in the north of Bei'an Prefecture, ready to meet us at any time.
Action in Beijing!"
Feng Kun let out a long breath and began to ponder.
The manpower under his command lurking in Shangjing is almost a team of one hundred households.
Including the people brought by Lin He, the manpower is enough.
But in Shangjing City, the home of the Jin people, if you want to complete the emperor's mission... it is not that easy. You must plan long-term.
But the emperor didn't give him much time.
Feng Kun stood up suddenly and led Lin He into a secret room on one side. In the secret room, the two of them discussed the topographic map of Shangjing over and over before gradually formulating an action plan.
At night, in front of Xuanhe Gate, which leads from the outer city of Shangjing to the inner city, namely Wangzhai, thick smoke suddenly billowed and a raging fire broke out.
The fire was intensified by the wind.
The city of Shangjing became a mess. The soldiers who defended Shangjing rushed out of the barracks and began to put out fires with fire extinguishers. Most of the people living in the outer city were ordinary people and merchants, but they also hoarded a large amount of supplies, because the shops opened by merchants basically
They were all in the outer city, so not only did the Shangjing garrison mobilize to put out the fire, but even a section of the Jin Kingdom's Imperial Forest Army guarding Wangzhai also rushed out of Xuanhe Gate and participated in the fire-fighting operation.
Feng Kun and Lin He took advantage of the chaos and led more than a hundred people to sneak into the King's Village within Xuanhemen. Without saying a word, they went straight to the palace where Emperor Wu of the Jin Kingdom was buying money.
In fact, it is a not very large manor in the city. It does not have the ornate palaces like those in the Central Plains. It is just a very ordinary palace. Here, Wu Qimai and his dozens of wives live.
Wu Qimai's first wife, Empress Tang Kuo of Dajin, died of illness last year. In fact, the person in charge of Wu Qimai's harem is Tang Kuo's niece Tang Kuo Linxue, and the rest are ordinary concubines, nothing more than noble ladies from various ministries of Dajin.
For example, the Pucha family, the Nuta family, etc., among them there was also a Han female concubine, the Lin family.
Tang Kuo was awakened from his sleep by the loud shouts clearly coming from the outer city. He took the concubines who got up in a hurry and went to the palace gate to inquire and found out that it was just the outer city that had lost water, and it was not that the Yan people were attacking again.
Only then did he feel relieved and let out a sigh of relief.
Ever since the last time Emperor Yan Wang Lin personally led tens of thousands of cavalry in a surprise attack on Beijing, a deep shadow has been cast in the hearts of the Jin Kingdom's dignitaries.
Especially now that the Emperor of the Jin Kingdom personally conquers the South and invades the Central Plains, the news coming back from the front shows that the war is not going well, and the outcome of this national war between the two countries is not yet known. Most of the nobles in the upper class of the Jin Kingdom actually have no idea at all.
end.
If the Jin Emperor is defeated, then what awaits the Jin people will be a disaster of national destruction.
The young Tang Kuolinxue was about to lead his daughters back to the palace to rest, when he suddenly saw a blazing fire at the tall archway in front of the king's stronghold, and immediately there were endless shouts of killing.
The dense rockets flew across the night sky like locusts and fell into the surrounding area of King's Stronghold.
Tang Kuo Linxue's pretty face suddenly changed.
…
Emperor Wu Qimai of the Jin Kingdom, who was stationed in Bei'an Prefecture, looked gloomy when he heard the military report that his eldest son Wanyan Zongpan had led his army to retreat and returned to Bei'an Prefecture.
Dozens of Jin Dynasty courtiers and generals who accompanied him on the expedition gathered together, all of whom looked unhappy.
Under the instigation of Wanyan Zongpan and others, the emperor hastily assembled his army and launched a campaign of southern invasion. However, the war was far from advancing according to the established plan, and instead fell into an embarrassing dilemma.
Wanyan Zongpan's journey was equivalent to losing troops and generals and returning without success.
But along the way, he has not dared to send troops to Gubeikou.
Wu Qimai stared coldly at the entrance of the hall until Wanyan Zongpan, wearing armor and with a sad face, slowly walked into the hall to pay his respects. Then he said coldly: "Zongpan, what do you have to say now? It was you who insisted on invading southward.
You promised me that you would take Juyong Pass within three months, but what was the result? A hundred thousand troops lost 20,000 and returned without success! How can you still have the dignity to come back to see me now? Huh?"
Wanyan Zongpan's face turned red, and the corners of his mouth twitched, but he could not utter a single word of defense. He was silent for a moment, and finally bowed his head to the tunnel and said: "My son is guilty, please punish me! My son is willing to bear the guilt of defeat!"
Bang!
Wu Qimai was so angry that he protested: "You can just say that you are willing to accept the crime in an understatement? Do you know that I, Dajin, have almost fallen into a doomed situation because of taking the initiative to start the war! Now that the war has started, our army has been delayed.
The Yan people's defense line cannot be broken. At this time, our army is short of food and grass supplies and is spending a lot of money. When spring comes, the Yan people will definitely attack with a large army!"
Wanyan Zongpan's face turned gloomy, but he still gritted his teeth and argued: "Father, Jin and Yan are not at odds with each other. Either the Yan country will be destroyed, or our country, Da Jin, will be destroyed. Even if I, Da Jin, abide by the armistice agreement, given time, the Yan people will definitely raise their troops.
Attack, when the time comes, I, Dajin, will be even more passive, so it is better to break the boat and use the strength of the whole country to fight to the death with the Yan people!"
Wanyan Zonggu, who was standing by, finally couldn't bear it anymore, and he sarcastically said: "Brother, how can our army fight to the death with the Yan people? Since you keep saying that you want to fight to the death with the Yan people, why do you lead your army to retreat to Bei'an Prefecture?
"
Wanyan Zongpan's face turned red and his shoulders trembled slightly as he said: "I am retreating to save these 80,000 cavalry! I don't want to let me, the great Jin Erlang, freeze to death in the ice and snow!!!"
Wanyan Zonggu snorted coldly: "You shouldn't have started the war lightly in the first place! You thought that the Yan people couldn't stand the severe cold and launched an attack in winter, and the Yan people would be defeated like a mountain. But the facts have proved that the Yan people were well prepared.
In comparison, our country, Daikin, is short of supplies and has hundreds of thousands of troops stationed on the Bei'an Prefecture line. Just this winter's extravagance is enough to consume more than half of our country's national strength!!!"
"you……"
Seeing that the two brothers were about to quarrel in public again, Wu Qimai's face became even more gloomy.
Wanyan Xiyin coughed twice and suddenly interjected: "Although Zong Gu and Zong Pan withdraw their troops, it is indeed a wise move. If the army is allowed to waste away in the ice and snow, it will lead to unnecessary casualties. Now all our troops are
We have gathered in Bei'an Prefecture, and now the top priority is to determine as soon as possible whether to advance or retreat, how to advance, and how to retreat. This is related to the national destiny of our country, Dajin, and it really cannot be underestimated."
