Rebirth: Overthrow Song Dynasty

These rebel soldiers have been in the army since the Jurchen invasion in the first year of Jingkang, and it has been six years since Xuanwu!

In these six years, they went from hope to despair. They had hoped to expel the Tartars and restore their homeland, but they were later arranged to fight a civil war. They were very disappointed with their army. Moreover, the extraordinary darkness in the army, officers oppress subordinates, occupy subordinates' military salary, and military exploits abound. They have long been bored, and have long been reluctant to stay in such an army.

However, the ancient military system was extremely harsh. Once in the army in ancient times, it would be a lifelong soldier and never get rid of it.

The ancients said in the poems that "fifteen from the army, eighty to return", this is by no means fabricated by the poet, but a real thing! He joined the army at the age of fifteen, and he could not return to his hometown until he was eighty. The pain can be imagined! Even if Zhao Chen introduced the new military system in Guanshan, there was no question of the number of years of persuasion. According to the tradition of the ancients, Guanshan was a lifetime affair. The soldiers of Guanshan only joined the army with enthusiasm. They never dared to think about future problems.

After many years, these hundreds of thousands of rebels have gradually become regularized. They have also implemented the military system of the ancients. Now it is difficult to withdraw.

At this moment, everyone looked at Xue Ming. They didn't know if Xue Ming could give them an answer.

"Actually, it is not difficult to leave the army! I have received the news, and the people on Guan Shan have already said that as long as we want to leave, we can leave. They will not intercept us!" Xue Mingdao.

"How do you know such news?"

"The news of Emperor Jianyan's death just came today, do you dare to say such a thing?"

The rebels below were surprised at first, and then immediately questioned.

"After waiting, you will naturally know what I said is right!" Xue Ming didn't explain, just laughed.

"Really?" someone asked again.

"It must be true! If you want to go back, you can go back!" Xue Ming said.

He was so sure that some soldiers from the Rebel Army began to doubt Xue Ming's identity! Over the years, many personnel from the Guanshan Propaganda Department and the Intelligence Division have penetrated into the rebels, and many soldiers of the rebels have heard about the undercover agents sent by Shanxi in their surroundings! The look they look at Xue Ming now has changed! However, Emperor Jianyan is dead, and the world will belong to Zhao Chen. Under such circumstances, even if they guess that Xue Ming is an undercover agent, it will not be against Xue Ming.

"There is still news from Guanshan. As long as we return to our hometown, everyone will be allocated ten acres of land! As you know, the world has been in chaos in the past few years, the people everywhere have suffered heavy casualties, and the remaining land is more active! All these land can be allocated. We!" Xue Ming said again.

"Ah! There is such a good thing?"

"Is this impossible? It is said that after the war, this land should be taken back by His Majesty and belongs to His Majesty Xuanwu!"

For a while, everyone's faces showed surprise expressions.

They can't believe it, and they hope it's true!

"However, only the brothers in Henan and Lianghuai can return to their hometowns! Hedong, Hebei, and Shandong are still under the occupation of Jurchen. We must wait for Emperor Xuanwu to expel Jurchen before we can go back! Moreover, we may have to go back. Assist Emperor Xuanwu to expel Jurchen from these places!" Xue Mingdao.

"Help Emperor Xuanwu, this is natural! He is now the emperor of our Song Dynasty, and naturally everything listens to him! Moreover, we hope every day, every night, and we all hope to go back! In order to be able to return home, we are willing to fight !"

Some soldiers said right now! The soldiers around nodded! They don't want to fight a civil war, but they are naturally willing to fight to go home.

"There is still some important news to tell you! Emperor Xuanwu's army had gone north a few months ago, and took down Datong, Yanmen and other places! The Jurchen army evacuated from Guanshan because of the accident in Datong and Yanmen. Reason!" Xue Ming laughed.

"Great!" Excited smiles appeared on the faces of the rebel soldiers.

They are Han people, they and Jurchen are feuds of life and death, and their hearts also look forward to regaining their homeland! Now that Datong, Yanmen and other places have been recovered, it is a good thing to celebrate anyway.

"Emperor Xuanwu’s army is extremely powerful, and Jurchen is not their opponent! If it weren’t for Emperor Jianyan to go against him, forcing us to oppose Emperor Xuanwu, Emperor Xuanwu would have entered the Central Plains and destroyed Jurchen! Now it’s good, Emperor Xuanwu and our strength will increase. Get up, you will definitely be able to expel all the Tartars!" Xue Ming said.

The surrounding soldiers cheered again.

Similar phenomena are happening everywhere in Chang'an City! The personnel of the Propaganda Department and Intelligence Department lurking in various places in Chang'an City had long been informed that Emperor Jianyan had been killed, and had been given orders from above, and they had not started to act until now.

It was dusk, and the earth was still hot.

Han Shizhong led more than a hundred soldiers to leave the city of Chang'an and head towards the northern barracks.

He did not return to the barracks until after dark.

Liang Hongyu was practicing spearmanship on a hill. After seeing Han Shizhong's soldiers and horses appearing in the distance, she immediately led people down from the hill.

"Husband, why have you stayed in Chang'an City for so long?" Liang Hongyu asked in surprise.

"A big event has happened in Jiangnan." Han Shizhong said with a bleak expression.

"A major event happened in Jiangnan? What major event?" Liang Hongyu hurriedly asked when Han Shizhong's expression was wrong.

"His Majesty Jianyan has passed away!" Han Shizhong said.

"What?" Liang Hongyu was stunned. She thought she had misheard, and said: "Husband, what did you just say? Emperor Jianyan passed away?"

Han Shizhong nodded silently.

"How could this happen? Is he seriously ill?" Liang Hongyu said.

"It's not a serious illness! In February, Emperor Xuanwu led a 100,000 army from Sichuan to southern Sichuan and entered Jiangnan. In March, Emperor Jianyan was killed. We only got the news today." Han Shizhong said.

Liang Hongyu was stunned for a moment, and said nothing! In fact, she had a lot to say, but the news was too shocking, and she was still thinking and recollecting in her heart.

"What should we do?" After a long time, Liang Hongyu finally said.

At this moment, they are not far from the military camp, and Han Shizhong and his party have stopped here.

"What else can we do? Naturally, we have surrendered to Emperor Xuanwu! Besides, do we have other ways?" Han Shizhong smiled bitterly.

"This..." Liang Hongyu was startled, with a wry smile on his face.

Indeed, they have no other way! People in the world are in love. Although there is a dispute between Zhao Gou and Zhao Chen, the rule of Song Dynasty is still deeply rooted in the hearts of the people! When the Jurchens invaded and the world was in chaos, only the Dongting Lake was in turmoil, but the influence of the Dongting Lake turmoil was also very small, and the people in the rest of the Jiangnan did not rebel with it! As for the officials, generals, and soldiers everywhere, they recognized the rule of Song Dynasty. Even if Zhao Gou is dead, but Zhao Chen is still there, they will follow Zhao Chen!

Apart from surrendering to Zhao Chen, Han Shizhong has no other way to go! Even if he rebelled, those soldiers would not necessarily rebel with him, and officials and people everywhere would not approve of their rebellious actions.

"We follow Emperor Jianyan, we are the confidants of Emperor Jianyan! Emperor Xuanwu controls Jiangnan, so I'm afraid he won't spare us?" Liang Hongyu said again.

"Before I came back, I met Yu Yunwen of Guan Shan. He said that as long as we surrender, he will ensure our safety! If we promise to be loyal to Emperor Xuanwu, we can even continue to control the army! Emperor Xuanwu wrote from Jiangnan saying that the Song Dynasty has been unified. In the future, there will only be one emperor. It is impossible for us generals to rebel. So as long as we are loyal, we can still control the army. He is very at ease with us." Han Shizhong said.

Liang Hongyu smiled bitterly again.

Both of them were silent. After a while, Liang Hongyu said again: "Husband, I just heard you say that Emperor Jianyan was killed by Emperor Xuanwu. What was the actual situation of the battle? Emperor Xuanwu led a hundred thousand troops to the south. Didn’t Emperor Jianyan escape?"

Han Shizhong said: "First, Miao Fu and Liu Zhengyan rebelled..."

He spoke slowly, and Liang Hongyu sighed.

On May 15th, Han Shizhong's 12-year-old eldest son Han Yanzhi rushed to Guanshan from Lin'an! Han Yanzhi brought news and confirmed that Zhao Gou is dead, Jiangnan is now stable, everything is normal in the Han family, and there is no insurgency!

Two days later, several of Zongze's friends also came from Jiangnan to tell Zongze the news of Jiangnan.

Wang Yan is the leader of the rebel army in the north. He has no relatives or friends in the south of the Yangtze River. However, through Han Shizhong's son and Zongze's friend, he has determined that Zhao Gou can't die anymore!

Zhang Jun still doesn't want to believe it! But on May 20th, Zhang Jun's old father came from Jiangnan and personally told Zhang Jun about the situation in Jiangnan and the situation at home. Zhang Juncai had to believe it.

The night was getting dark, and Zhang Jun brought a few soldiers to the wall, and he looked towards the south of the Yangtze River.

Although the Jiangnan mutiny was unmistakable, Zhang Jun was still unwilling to accept the news.

He is very loyal to Zhao Gou! Back then, he was born in a bitter cold, and has made countless contributions in the Western Army for more than ten years, but he has never been rewarded. It took him 16 years to become the "Three Squads", and he was also in the Western Army. Because of his noble background, Liu Guangshi was personally named "Three Squads" by the emperor when he was a baby! It can be said that it took him 16 years to obtain the military positions that the children of the soldier's family were able to obtain as soon as they were born. It was not until the chaos of the world that he defected to Zhao Gou before he was reused and became a Jiangnan general, alongside Han Shizhong, Liu Guangshi and others.

He is one of the four generals of Zhongxing in the Southern Song Dynasty. He is quite useful as a soldier, but he is cruel and not liked by soldiers. Over the years, the generals have complained about others, and many words even reached Zhao Gou's ears, but Zhao Gou did not pursue it, and trusted him very much.

"What should I do? How could this happen? Your majesty is dead, and your majesty's prince is also dead! Where should I go, Zhang Jun?" Zhang Jun murmured.

When the evening breeze blew, his clothes swayed constantly.

"No! I want to lead the army into Jiangnan, I want to avenge your majesty! Yes, I want to avenge!" Zhang Jun suddenly shouted.
