Rebirth: Overthrow Song Dynasty

As if the heavens were also feeling the tragedy of Kaifeng City, it was already dawn, but the sky outside was extremely gloomy, and the snow was getting bigger and bigger!

In the partial hall, you can see that the snow outside is already a foot thick! This winter, the snow fell this big for the first time!

Zhao Chen was fidgeting, while Li Gang respectfully accompanied him! In fact, Li Gang was also extremely anxious, and he also hoped that Wang De could find the Jade Seal of Chuanguo and return sooner.

"Is it so important?" Zhao Chen looked outside and asked.

"His Royal Highness wants to regain the mountains and rivers, we must have this thing!" Li Gang said.

"How can I regain the mountains and rivers?" Zhao Chen smiled secretly in his heart!

For a 17-year-old boy, the experience of the past six months is just like a scene in a movie! It was too difficult for him to integrate into the movie at once!

"Li Gang, tell me, why was our Da Song so bullied by the Jin Bing, so that the father, the mother, the Queen, and the Supreme Emperor were all captured by the Jin Bing? Why did my grand Song be bullied by a group of barbarians who came out of the wild? Almost to subdue the country and exterminate the species?" Zhao Chen said.

Wang De hasn't returned yet, he is only anxious in the partial hall, it is better to talk to Li Gang.

"This..." Li Gang was silent for a while before saying: "His Royal Highness, the reason why we are so bullied by the Golden Soldier is that our army is not good!"

"Why can't the army work?" Zhao Chen said.

"Our military system is chaotic! In the Forbidden Army, soldiers who do not know the generals and will not know the soldiers abound! Moreover, the soldiers of the Forbidden Army have never been trained in these years!" Li Gang said.

"In addition to the Forbidden Army, we also have the Western Army! The Western Army has fought with Xixia for many years, and the combat strength is also good, why can't they?" Zhao Chen said.

"The Western Army is better than the Forbidden Army, but it's not much better! Their military system is also very chaotic, and they have little training in the past! Also, the Western Army has long become a private army!" Li Gangdao.

"Private army?" Zhao Chen was a little confused.

"Yes! There are countless families of generals in the Western Army, and those generals are passed down from generation to generation! In the Western Army, the grandfather is the general, the father is the general, and the son is also the general. In this way, from generation to generation, each of them controls the same army. ! And the soldiers of the army are passed down from generation to generation! Just like the old family army, grandfather is a soldier of the family army, and his grandson is also a soldier of the family army! This is the private army! The family army, Yao Jiajun, Liu Jiajun, Zhe The family army is a well-known private army in the Western army! In the early years, there was the Yang family general, which was passed down from generation to generation, but the Yang family is now declining, and it is not worth mentioning.

Zhao Chen nodded, thinking that this is probably an ancient "warlord"!

"The Western Army is all private troops. They only think about their own interests and never consider the interests of the country! They resist Xixia because Xixia is in their north, and Xixia invades their own homeland, so they can’t No war! They went south to conquer Fangla because the court promised them that if they captured Jiangnan, they would be allowed to looting in Jiangnan! The disaster of the Western army was far better than the disaster of Fangla, and the people of Jiangnan were far more horrified by the Western army. The horror of surpassing the opponent's La! This time Zhe Keqiu, Zhe Yan and his son defended the Yellow River, why did the Golden Soldiers just flee for only one night? Although they were as timid as a mouse, on the other hand, Zhe Keqi father and son thought. You must keep your own army, and don't want your army to suffer the slightest loss!" Li Gang said.

"So they just watched Jin Bing cross the Yellow River?" Zhao Chen said.

"Yes!"

"Damn it!" Zhao Chen couldn't help cursing.

"In addition to the army, there are many traitors in the DPRK. This is also a problem! Zhang Bangchang and Li Bangyan are prime ministers and deputy ministers. They actually helped the Jurchens capture their own monarch! On weekdays, these traitors only know how to do it. Corruption and corruption! These are the reasons why my great Song Dynasty is almost annihilated!" Li Gang said.

Zhao Chen nodded. He looked out the window and saw heavy snow flying. He was thinking, could the Northern Song Dynasty really perish because of this?

"The army has no combat power, and there are many corrupt officials in the dynasty... In fact, it is not only in the Northern Song Dynasty, but also in the Southern Song Dynasty, and in subsequent dynasties... This was the case in the Ming Dynasty, and it was later destroyed by the Jurchens... The Jurchens established the Qing Dynasty. Being assimilated by our Han people, the Eight Banners Army became less and less effective. In the late Qing Dynasty, corrupt officials were rampant, so that they were bullied by the small kingdom of Dongying... Why did it become like this? The Han and Tang Dynasties were definitely not the case! The Han and Tang Dynasties were full of military courage. Everyone dared to fight, and the literati dared to abandon the pen and go to the army. As for the military commander, he even dared to say, "Those who commit my crimes will be punishable even if they are far away." In the last years of the Han Dynasty, the world was divided into The Three Kingdoms, but the Three Kingdoms are also famous generals. The army of the Three Kingdoms is still very strong. Whether it is Cao Cao or Zhuge Liang, there are deeds of defeating barbarians... In the Tang Dynasty, the emperor of the Central Plains was the "Khan of Heaven" in the hearts of foreigners. Even at the end of the Tang Dynasty, there were many vassals in the world, but the Jiedu envoys of any strong town in the Central Plains could still cross and cross the foreign races, and they were invincible! Super powerful races such as the Huns and Khitans were defeated by our Han people. As for the Khitan and Jurchens To be able to claim to me China, to live on my Chinese breath... But starting from the Song Dynasty, the Chinese nation has changed. The Chinese nation has lost its military courage and become extremely weak. Anyone can take a bite in China, Khitan. People, Xixia people, Mongols, the Eight-Nation Alliance, and the Japanese army can bully us. We can’t defeat them. At most, they occupy us and we assimilate them... I’m afraid there are deeper reasons for this, or with the nation. Culture and nationality are related..." Zhao Chen thought secretly.

As for the specific national culture and nationality, Zhao Chen has no eye for a moment!

As Zhao Chen looked out, suddenly there was the sound of walking outside! Zhao Chen and Li Gang were shocked!

Zhao Chen hurriedly glanced into the distance, and saw a dozen Jurchen soldiers passing by. It turned out that Jurchen soldiers had already entered the palace!

The two hid their bodies and held their breath! After a while, the footsteps of the Jurchen soldiers gradually disappeared, and the two of them breathed a sigh of relief.

"No, the Jurchen has already entered the palace, and it is even more difficult to escape now! Wang De doesn't know when he will come back, we must leave first!" Zhao Chen said.

"But, we haven't got the Chuanguo Yuxi!" Li Gang hesitated.

"If I die here, what's the point even if I get the Jade Seal?" Zhao Chen said.

"This..." Li Gang was taken aback, he thought for a moment, and thought it was the truth.

Zhao Chen took a deep breath, even though he knew his martial arts was not good, but now he must leave here too!

He was about to leave the Piandian, when suddenly a figure flashed outside, and a big man appeared in the Piandian, who was not Wang De?

The moment Wang De appeared just now, Zhao Chen's heart jumped wildly! After seeing that it was Wang De, he was overjoyed!

"You finally returned!" Zhao Chen said slightly complaining.

"General Wang, have you ever retrieved the Chuanguo Yuxi?" Li Gang asked nervously.

"Fortunately, the final general did not humiliate his life and retrieved the Chuanguo Yuxi from Zichen Hall!" Wang De said excitedly.

It turned out that Wang De thought that the Jade Seal of the Chuan Kingdom was in the Funing Hall, so he headed towards the Funing Hall! Unexpectedly, it is said that the jade seal of the country is not in the Funing Hall, but in the Zichen Hall next to it! The Jade Seal of the Chuan Kingdom is just a symbol. When the Emperor of the Song Dynasty issued the imperial decree, he did not use the Jade Seal of the Chuan Kingdom, but with a personal seal! Therefore, the emperor of the Song Dynasty did not place the Chuanguo Jade Seal in the Funing Hall, which handles government affairs on weekdays, but enshrined it in the Zichen Hall! Fortunately, Zichen Temple is closer to Funing Temple. Wang De went to Zichen Temple after he came out of Funing Temple, so it didn't take too long!

"It's great!" Li Gang said with excitement.

At the moment Wang De took out a square box, which was about 10 centimeters in length, width and height, and he placed this box in front of Zhao Chen!

Zhao Chen took the box curiously! After taking it over, he first felt very heavy!

He slowly opened the box, only to see a golden light rising into the sky! Zhao Chen was taken aback, the box in his hand fell off! Fortunately, Wang De was right beside him, and Wang De hurriedly caught the box.

"His Royal Highness, what happened?" Wang De said.

"I saw the golden light rising into the sky, and it almost made me unable to open my eyes! Didn't you see it?" Zhao Chen said.

"Huh?" Wang De couldn't believe it.

"His Royal Highness can see, that is because His Royal Highness is the prince, shouldering the country's sacred grass, and naturally can see the golden light emitted by the jade seal of the country! This is a great omen! I hope the rejuvenation of the Song Dynasty!" Li Gangzai Excited.

Zhao Chen shook his head, he felt more and more weird in his heart! When he was in the Weapon Depot before, he saw the Seven Star Dragon Abyss Sword emit purple light. At that time, the old **** said that he was related to the Seven Star Dragon Abyss Sword, and said that there have been records in history that other people saw the Seven Star Dragon Abyss Sword emit purple light! Now he saw the Jade Seal of Chuanguo exuding golden light, and Li Gang actually said it was a symbol of good omen!

He felt that whether it was purple light or golden light, these were inconsistent with scientific common sense! It is even more absurd to just explain it as "destined" or "good omen"! He just couldn't figure out the way, and it was not the time to think about this issue, so he stopped thinking about it.

At this moment, the golden light has disappeared, and Zhao Chen can finally take a good look at the Jade Seal of the Kingdom!

The first impression given to him by this legendary jade seal is that it is green as blue, crystal clear and moist, and extremely beautiful. It is worthy of being carved from the world's most beautiful jade! Looking at Chuanguo Yuxi, Zhao Chen couldn't help but think of the legend of Heshibi! It is said that Bian He, a native of Chu, dug out a piece of "pure jade" from Jingshan. He presented the uncut jade to King Chu Li. King Chu Li ordered the jade craftsman of the palace to inspect it. The jade craftsman said it was just an ordinary stone. King Chu Li cut off Bian He's left foot for deceiving the emperor! King Wu succeeded to the throne, and Bian He once again held the "Uncut Jade" to see King Wu. King Wu ordered other jadesmiths to check. The jadesmith still said it was a stone, and King Wu ordered Bian He's right foot to be cut off! Bian He cried bitterly for three days and three nights holding "Pure Yu", his tears ran away, and then blood was shed, and his eyes became blind! After Wang Wen learned that he sent someone to ask Bian He why he was crying so bitterly, Bian He said that I was not crying bitterly that my feet were cut off, but bitterly crying that such a beautiful jade was treated as a stone and the precious jade was covered in dust. It was the greatest sorrow in the world! King Wen ordered people to cut this piece of jade and get a rare treasure, named He's Bi!

Zhao Chen didn't know how to appreciate jade, but at this moment he still felt that the jade seal of this country was extremely exquisite! It's just that a corner of the jade seal is missing, and it was made up with gold! Zhao Chen also knew this allusion. Back then, when Wang Mang usurped the throne, Wang Mang asked the Queen Mother of the Han Dynasty for the Jade Seal of the Chuan Kingdom. The Queen Mother was angry and smashed the jade seal of the Chuan Kingdom on the ground, so he was missing a corner and filled it with gold! The craftsman who filled the corner of the Chuan Guoyu Seal must be a well-known craftsman in the world at that time. Although the corner of the jade seal is gold now, Zhao Chen does not feel the “beauty of regret”, as if that corner and the rest of the triangle are unusually harmonious, as if He's born like this.

The entire Yuxi exquisite reveals classic and solemnity! There are five dragons as buttons on the jade seal, which is extremely majestic, and on all sides are engraved countless exquisite pictures. There are flowers, birds, fish and insects, there are nine states in the world, saints governing the world, three emperors and five emperors... These pictures are lifelike, looking at this jade seal, Zhao Chen unexpectedly There is a feeling of entering the picture, which shows the essence of the carving! After a long time, he recovered, and looked down the Chuanguo Yuxi.

Below the Chuanguo Yuxi is carved with the eight characters "Owned to heaven, that is, Shou Yongchang", these characters are carved in bird seal! Zhao Chen didn't recognize bird seals, but he had studied history, and even if he didn't recognize them, he knew what it was.

"This is the Jade Seal of the Country!" Zhao Chen said secretly.

"The rumored jade seal has not been lost, which proves that my great Song Dynasty is not exhausted! Your Highness received this rumored jade seal, which is where the destiny is and represents the orthodox of heaven and earth! Heaven will not perish my great Song!" Li Gang said excitedly again.

"Go, we have to leave here immediately!" Zhao Chen said.
