Rebirth: Overthrow Song Dynasty

Chapter 16: Still negotiate

Only a rumbling sound can be heard in the palace, but outside the city of Kaifeng, the earth is shaking violently at this moment!

The snow is flying, and you can see far away even in the dark! That night, countless people outside the city of Kaifeng looked at the distance in horror!

A black line appeared in the distance, and it was this black line that caused the earth to shake! The black line is getting closer and closer to the city of Kaifeng, and you can gradually see that they are boundless cavalry! If you get closer, you can see that these cavalry are all dressed up weirdly, they are all bald, only there is an unusually ugly money braid behind their heads! Although their appearance is extremely ugly, their bodies are exceptionally strong! All of them are dark, with bulging muscles, their hands holding sharp sabers, and their backs carrying huge curved bows! These are the standard Jurchen costumes, and the army in front of them is the Jurchen cavalry that has been invincible for ten years!

"Kaifeng, Kaifeng! Kaifeng is in front!" Wan Yan Zonghan looked excited and laughed!

"Marshal, we finally came to the city of Kaifeng! Within these hundreds of miles, we didn't even encounter any Song Army, and we traveled unimpeded all the way!" Wanyan Loushi followed Wanyan Zonghan, and laughed at this moment. .

"Thank you, Mr. Xiaoyaozi!" Wan Yan Zonghan looked at a scholar beside him with a grateful expression.

"You don't have to be polite, our goal is the same! I also want to kill Song with your hands!" Xiaoyaozi still looks like a dashing and dust-free! He rode on a horse, marching day and night, but he didn’t even have a trace of dust on his body. This was because his martial arts were too high and he had reached the state of Dzogchen Congenital. The true energy in his body was all over his body, and there was no dust. The thing has not touched his body and has been bounced far away! This is really the highest state of martial arts, and only three or five people can reach this state today!

Most people can't comprehend such a realm, but Wanyan Zonghan and Wanyan Lou are the top masters among the Jurchens, and they can naturally comprehend such a realm! Along the way, their bodies are full of dust and dirt, and the two of them have really admired Xiaoyaozi to the extreme!

"Sir, we will attack the city today! With the strength of my Jurchen army, Kaifeng can be broken in a few days!" Wan Yan Zonghan said.

"You don't need to attack the city right now!" Xiaoyaozi shook his head.

"We have come to the city, why not attack the city?" Wan Yan Zonghan asked in surprise.

"We are still discussing peace!" Xiaoyaozi said.

Both Wanyan Zonghan and Wanyanlou stayed there. The negotiation was originally used to paralyze the Song court. The so-called "frogs boiled in warm water" is also true, but now they have successfully reached the city of Kaifeng, why continue to negotiate? Isn't this a waste of time?

Xiaoyaozi smiled and said: "Firstly, His Royal Highness the Second Prince has not yet come to Kaifeng City. With the power of a single man, it is difficult to conquer Kaifeng. After all, Kaifeng is the largest and strongest city in the Song Dynasty! Secondly, we can still use it. Talking about peace paralyzed the Song court, making them think that the reason we came to the city was to negotiate peace, because they agreed to our conditions! Let the forbidden army in Kaifeng city relax!"

"Yes!" Wanyan Zonghan nodded.

"One more thing, if the commander takes down Kaifeng City, is he going to looting and looting?" Xiaoyaozi said.

"This is natural! I have long heard that Kaifeng City is the richest place in the world. We have come here from the north with all the hardships. Is there any reason not to looting?" Wan Yan Zonghan said without shame.

"Why do we do it ourselves?" Xiaoyaozi smiled.

"Oh?" Wanyan Zonghan was taken aback, not quite understanding what Xiaoyaozi meant.

"We negotiated with them and let the court of Song Dynasty search out all the gold and silver in Kaifeng city. Wouldn't it be unnecessary for us to do it ourselves? If we do it ourselves, the people in Kaifeng city will resist. In that case, we will still have something. Death and injury, so many are not good! Marshal, do you know Yelv Deguang?" Xiaoyaozi said.

"Naturally know that Yelu Deguang, he is the second emperor of the Liao Kingdom, a generation of heroes, the Yanyun Sixteen Prefecture was taken from the hands of the Han by this man!" Wanyan Zonghan said.

"Yelü Deguang once fought all the way south to Kaifeng City back then, just like the current Jinbing!" Xiaoyaozi said.

"Oh!" Wanyan Zonghan nodded, he looked at Xiaoyaozi, expecting Xiaoyaozi to continue speaking.

"It's just a pity that Yeludeguang allowed his soldiers and horses to rob! The city of Kaifeng is the largest city in the world, with millions of people, and the people have resisted! The few soldiers in Liao were half dead because of the people's resistance, and finally had to withdraw. Kaifeng City! Originally, Yelv Deguang was planning to use Kaifeng City as the capital of the Liao Dynasty! So, now I propose to negotiate and let the Song court take away all the gold and silver of its people and give it to us obediently. Good?" Xiaoyaozi said.

"So there is such a thing!" Wan Yan Zonghan suddenly realized.

A gust of north wind blows, and Xiaoyaozi's clothes are blown! He is over forty years old, but now he still feels so chic, as if he is a son of the world's best! At this moment, he looked at the city of Kaifeng ahead with a sneer in his eyes!

"Zhao Kuangyin, you have taken the world in the next week of my life! Didn't you think that your Great Song Dynasty would have such a day? Now I not only want to wipe out all of your Zhao children, I also want your Zhao children to be humiliated before they die. ,Leave the infamy of Wanshi!” Xiaoyaozi said secretly.

The Jurchen army came to Kaifeng, this time Kaifeng City was really shocked!

The people in Kaifeng city are hiding in their homes, and they dare not come out! On the surface, it's not as chaotic as it was last time! Many people wanted to escape last time, but this time the gate of Kaifeng was closed, no one can escape now! What's more, the army of Jurchen barbarians is outside, who dares to go out?

The court of Song Dynasty was frightened and inexplicable at first, but in the morning that day, the envoy of Jurchen entered the city of Kaifeng! In addition to the Jurchen messenger, Li Bangyan, who was sent to bargain with the Jurchens, also returned!

Song Qinzong hurriedly summoned Li Bangyan in the Funing Hall.

"Li Aiqing, aren't the Jurchens going to attack the city?" Song Qinzong asked immediately when Li Bangyan stepped into the hall.

"No, they just want to negotiate a peace! Our gold and silver have not been sent up, so they came outside Kaifeng to ask for money!" Li Bangyan said.

"This...this..." For a moment, Song Qinzong burst into tears, he was tears of joy! As long as the Jurchen is not a siege, he will feel at ease! He has already decided that as long as it is a negotiation, regardless of any conditions, he will agree to the Jurchen!

"The sky is not dead, I am Da Song!" Song Qinzong said with emotion for a long time.

"Your Majesty, the Jurchens said, those 10 million ingots of gold, 20 million ingots of silver, and 10 million piping, none of them can be less! Only after sending out all their belongings can they retreat!" Li Bangyan said .

"But there is not so much gold and silver in the treasury! These days, the ministers and I have been raising money, but we can't raise so much gold and silver!" Song Qinzong worried.

"Your Majesty, there are millions of people in Kaifeng! Now that the Golden Soldiers surround Kaifeng, everyone should make a contribution, and everyone should donate their belongings! The Golden Soldiers retired, which is good for all the people in Kaifeng City. !" Li Bangyan said loudly.

"This..." Song Qinzong hesitated for a while.

"Your Majesty, don't hesitate! Only if you save Jiangshan Sheji, you can repay the people in the future! If you don't do this now, Jiangshan Sheji will fall! When the Jurchens break into Kaifeng, then the people's gold and silver wealth belonged to the Jurchens. Yes!" Li Bangyan said.

"You're right! It's just that this matter is of great importance, and you should call the group officials to discuss it!" Song Qinzong said.

At the moment Song Qinzong called a group of ministers to discuss the matter. The ministers in the DPRK, except for Li Gang and a few other people, believed that they should fight against gold with all their strength, the other ministers actually agreed to collect gold and silver from the homes of the people in Kaifeng City to satisfy them. The needs of Jurchen!

The first to collect gold and silver starts from the merchants in Kaifeng City! In the afternoon of that day, countless soldiers of the Forbidden Army rushed into the homes of the merchants and began to **** gold, silver and wealth from one family after another!

That night, soldiers of the Forbidden Army broke into the homes of ordinary people and began to **** their belongings!

The entire Kaifeng city was chaotic again, and there were crying everywhere!

"It's a pity that I'm just a ten-year-old prince, no job or power! The enemy is oppressing the territory, and the court does not deal with the enemy, and even oppresses its own people! There are 1.5 million people in Kaifeng. If the weapons are distributed, the people will resist. Jin Bing, Jin Bing only has one hundred thousand, and we can fight them in the street, and we can repel them!" Late at night, Zhao Chen couldn't fall asleep. Looking out the window, he clenched his fists!

On this night, he was very eager to control this country! For the first time, he had a sense of identification with the identity of "Prince"!

"His Royal Highness, these days are very chaotic! Those eunuchs and court ladies are running around, and now they can still hear the crying in the distance, what happened?" Xiao San'er stood aside and asked a little strangely.

"Nothing! The public has stolen these days, so thieves are being caught in the palace! You must not go out. If you are discovered, you just think you are a thieves, I am afraid it is the crime of Ling Chi!" Zhao Chen said.

"This...this..." Xiao San'er was startled and trembled all over.

Xiao San'er naturally knew what kind of punishment Ling Chi was, and the flesh on his body was cut off piece by piece, it must be painful to the extreme!

"Prince don't worry, I will never go out!" Xiao San'er hurriedly said.

"That's good!" Zhao Chen nodded.

It’s already November 3, and there is another sound of horseshoes outside the city that night. This is the arrival of Wanyan Zongwang! The two armies of Jurchen finally converged, a total of 100,000 horses galloping across the city of Kaifeng, and Jurchen’s cheerful laughter could be heard everywhere.

On this day, Da Song's first batch of gold and silver was also sent outside the city! The Jurchen people are more happy when they get gold and silver, so there is no need to say more!

In the next few days, gold and silver were sent out almost every day! But the crying in Kaifeng city is getting more and more, I don't know how many people have lost their homes!

The weather became more and more cold, the cold wind howled, the snow stopped and then fell again, the sky in Kaifeng city was always gloomy!

Zhao Chen still followed Wang De to practice martial arts every day, but when he came to Jujingyuan that day, he saw a trace of anxiety on Wang De's face.
