Water Margin farming to become powerful

Chapter 650 When people’s hearts change

Li Qianshun never expected that the Supervisory Committee, which had such powerful contacts, would be so keen on doing business that the Central Plains Dynasty had always considered trivial.

And Sun Xin really strangled his lifeline.

Although the power of the Supervisory Committee in Xixia has not yet been heard to be powerful, if he is really determined to play like this, Xixia Kingdom will really not be able to bear it.

After repeated battles, he could not win, and his weaknesses were discovered by the other party. With no choice but to do so, Li Qianshun finally decided to sit down and negotiate with the Supervisory Committee.

The negotiations with the Xixia Kingdom were not something Luan Tingyu could lead. After the negotiations began, cadres hurriedly sent from Shandong took over. The escort army left tens of thousands of troops stationed in the Xiangqing Army and the rest withdrew to the northwest of the Song Dynasty. Continue to clear out the remaining forces of the Song Dynasty in the west.

The dust of the Northwest War at the end of May finally settled, and the results spread quickly.

The first one to be surprised was naturally the Song Dynasty.

When they heard that the Jurchens had broken the contract, the people of Bianliang were already screaming in their hearts that something was wrong. But at this time, the Supervisory Committee's decisive action caused a huge psychological impact on the local people.

What happened next seemed like a fairy tale to the people of Bianliang.

The supervisory committee, which was mainly composed of Han people from Shandong, not only defeated Wanyan Zongwang, but also began to chase him north. The army rolled towards the northwest for a decisive battle with Wanyan Zonghan.

And this decisive battle was won quickly.

After winning the battle, the Supervisory Committee did not stop and directly pursued Xixia into the country.

Just when everyone thought that the Supervisory Committee would suffer some hardships on the northwest border where the Song Dynasty had been in stalemate for hundreds of years, shocking news came from the front line again.

In the first battle, the Supervisory Committee used [-] troops to defeat the [-] Xixia and Jurchen allied forces. Then they rode straight into the desert and spent ten days searching the mountains and seas. Chen Lishi, the leader of the Xi tribe who sat down with Luan Tingyu, led more than a hundred The famous cavalry captured the famous Xixia General Richard Brother and killed the Jurchen Marshal Wanyan Zonghan!
Within two months, they defeated the Jurchens, who were known to be invincible in the world, and the Xixia people, who had troubled the western border of the Song Dynasty for hundreds of years.

Although they had been shocked time and time again by the Supervisory Committee's previous achievements, the people of the Song Dynasty still took a deep breath when they learned the news.

I knew the supervisors would be strong, but I didn't know they were this strong.

When the defenders of Bianliang heard the news and saw the supervisory committee forces patrolling outside Bianliang City, they couldn't help but tremble in their bones.

The enemies who couldn't even defeat the Jurchens were now firing guns and cannons outside their city every day.

In fact, the Supervisory Committee really didn't do anything to the Song Dynasty. Outside Bianliang City, it just suppressed bandits.

Speaking of which, the Song Dynasty should be blamed for this. In order to protect Bianliang, it lost 20 troops.

What is the level of discipline of the Song Army? More than 20% of the [-] people are refugees who went to join the army in order to have a good meal, or soldiers who committed crimes and were sent to the army.

This group of people would rob homes and homes no matter what, and now they were all dragged around Bianliang City, where they were asked to fight an enemy that was too powerful to imagine. At the same time, they were unable to provide even the most basic food and clothing.

The 20 troops themselves would engage in fighting around Bianliang from time to time, and the stragglers became bandits on the spot in the most benign place in the capital.

The local Supervisory Committee forces and the people are miserable about these bandits, and the Protective Army also has many newly recruited soldiers from the maternity care team. Even if these guys have participated in the Song Army, they just go on duty with broken weapons. , it is incomparable to the Northwest Frontier Army that has actually fought in the war, and there is no way to serve as a basic combat force without some actual combat training.

In order to train troops, the Supervisory Committee simply targeted these bandits, who were deeply hated by the masses.

As for why the sound of gunfire is heard around Bianliang:

Because these bandits found that they would be beaten severely as soon as they arrived at the place controlled by the Supervisory Committee. If they wanted to escape for their lives, it would be safest to get closer to the Song Dynasty.So the Supervisory Committee beat these bandits and they all ran towards Bianliang City, and the Supervisory Committee's guns and cannons naturally followed them.

As a result, the defenders and generals in Bianliang City often saw the Supervisory Committee using muskets to eliminate bandits with great efficiency. Looking at it, they felt cold all over, as if the musket bullets were hitting their chests. Same.

Later, when the teams on both sides were patrolling, the Song army would even take the initiative to stop and let the Supervisory Committee pass when they encountered the defenders on the Bianliang side to avoid walking ahead of them.

All soldiers who have watched the Supervisory Committee fight will feel as if someone behind them is pointing a musket at their necks as long as they walk in front of the Supervisory Committee's soldiers.

It's too penetrating.

In addition to the shadow of terror in the hearts of the Song army and the officials of the Song Dynasty, the glorious achievements of the Supervisory Committee were also spread throughout the Song Dynasty, and the effect was extremely positive.

After defeating the Jurchens and Xixia, they regained a large area of ​​land. Now the Supervisory Committee is still rapidly expanding its territory. The actual area under its control already includes almost the entire area south of the Great Wall and north of the Yellow River.

At this time, except for the area around Bianliang, almost all the remaining land under stable control in the Song Dynasty was south of the Yellow River.

This does not take into account the situation in the Hongze Lake base area of ​​the Supervisory Committee. If the Supervisory Committee really tried to capture Xuzhou, it would be difficult for the Song Dynasty to save even the north of the Yangtze River.

Anyone with a little knowledge, as long as they see the time-controlled area of ​​the Supervisory Council, will easily associate it with the Northern Dynasty in the confrontation between the north and the south.

It was even wider than the Northern Zhou Dynasty.

The Supervisory Committee's military might far exceeded that of Beizhou back then.

This is an existence that is invincible in the world.

The world's people have finally reached a turning point.

The Song Dynasty soldiers who originally defended Yunzhong, led by Datong Mansion, surrendered to the Supervisory Committee one by one.

Immediately afterwards, a large number of prefectures and counties in Shanxi defected.

These places were already full of rebels and had a large number of Supervisory Committee organizations. Before, Zongze could rely on the power of the Song Dynasty to make these rebels join him, but by this time, the existence of the Song Dynasty itself had become a questionable issue.

To the east of the Taihang Mountains, all the land in the north and south of the Shanxi Plateau is owned by the Supervisory Committee. Post-war reconstruction has even begun. Farms are being divided everywhere, and new business models are being developed everywhere. It is a vibrant scene.

The Supervisory Committee is rapidly gaining popular support, and almost no Shanxi people still believe that the Song Dynasty can transcend the vast depth of the Supervisory Committee and return to Shanxi.

So Shanxi prefectures began to revolt one by one, Daizhou, Yangquan, Gaoping... local rebels and powerful people took the initiative to contact the Supervisory Committee and wanted to follow.

Faced with the raging war, Zongze no longer had the capital to bargain with Sun Xin as he did more than a month ago. In order to stabilize the situation in Shanxi, he could only have private peace talks with Sun Xin and asked Sun Xin to quickly take over the uprising state capitals. , don’t cause the tragic situation of refugees in these places.

After Sun Xin agreed, the situation on Zaihe East Road in Song Dynasty fell one by one like dominoes.

In less than a month, only Taiyuan, where Zongze was stationed, was still under the control of the Song Dynasty on Hedong Road.
