The Great Thief of the Three Kingdoms, save Mrs. Du at the beginning

Chapter 187 Goryeo seeks aid from King Wu of the Han Dynasty

Seeing a large number of Han troops coming and facing the heavy siege of the Han troops, Zhao Gou completely lost hope and looked at the Han general Li Bao with a look of fear.

"I am the Emperor of the Song Dynasty, you can't kill me!" Zhao Gou said calmly.

Li Bao looked Zhao Gou up and down, sneered and said:
"Don't worry, as long as you don't resist, I won't kill you, but I will hand you over to King Wu!"

Zhao Gou breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that Li Bao didn't kill him directly, but then he still didn't believe it: "Really?"

"Of course it's true!" Li Bao glanced at Zhao Gou disdainfully.

"Okay, okay!" Zhao Gou nodded repeatedly and said, "As long as I don't die, I am willing to surrender!"

When Li Bao heard this, he couldn't help but frown.

This guy Zhao Gou is really weak.

Thinking of this, Li Bao ordered: "Take Zhao Gou into custody. As long as he doesn't resist, don't hurt him!"

"promise!"

All the Han troops rushed forward. Zhao Gou could not help but show a look of dejection on his face, but he understood that he was really doomed.

a few days later.

Liu Yu saw Emperor Zhao Gou of the Song Dynasty sitting in a prison car in Hangzhou.

"Let him out!" Liu Yu looked at the embarrassed Zhao Gou, waved his hand and said.

"Yes!" General Luo Cheng stepped forward and opened the prison car.

After Zhao Gou got out of the car, he quickly knelt on the ground, kowtowed to Liu Yu and begged for mercy. He repeatedly begged for mercy: "I am Zhao Gou. I pay my respects to King Wu and ask King Wu to spare my life. We are all Han people. Please spare my life!"

Liu Yu couldn't help but sneer after listening to Zhao Gou's words:
"Haha, Zhao Gou, as the emperor of the Song Dynasty, you are facing the destruction of your country and your family, but you don't want to resist the Jurchen Jin Kingdom. You just want to escape and trap millions of people under the iron heel of the Tartars. Now you still have the nerve to say so. Han Chinese? Do you know your crime?!" Liu Yu stood in front of Zhao Gou and asked in a cold voice.

When Zhao Gou heard this, his face turned pale and he said, "I beg King Wu to spare my life, please King Wu to spare my life!"

"Humph!"

Liu Yu snorted coldly and said: "Zhao Gou, since you know you are wrong, I will not kill you for the time being. However, I will hold a public trial in Jiankang City and let the people of the world decide whether you should What kind of guilt should you bear!”

"Thank you, King Wu! Thank you, King Wu!" Zhao Gou kowtowed and thanked him repeatedly. He felt that if Liu Yu was not killed now, there would be no fear of his life.

"Go away!" Liu Yu looked at Zhao Gou as if he were looking at a dead person, and waved his hand, signaling Zhao Gou to leave.

Several Han soldiers immediately stepped forward, took Zhao Gou down, and put him in a cell.

After Liu Yu returned to the palace, counselors Jia Xu, Xun You, Guan Yu and others all looked confused and puzzled.

"My lord, Zhao Gou is a foolish king. Even if he is not killed, he should be imprisoned. Why should he be tried in public?" Guan Yu asked doubtfully.

Everyone also looked at Liu Yu with confusion.

When Liu Yu saw everyone's doubtful looks, he didn't hide it and said directly:

"For Zhao Gou, we must not only kill people, but also punish his heart! We must squeeze out the last bit of his value, and make this foolish king completely stinky in the hearts of the people in the world! Only in this way can we establish the orthodoxy of the Han Dynasty, and many places in the south are still not there With Zhao Gou in our hands, we can capture these places without a single blow!"

Liu Yu's words reached everyone's ears, and everyone suddenly understood, but their eyes lit up.
"Okay, let's wait until we return to Jiankang to discuss the matter of public trial of Zhao Gou. Now, gather the army, appease the people, and spread the word to all places that Zhao Gou has been captured. Those who know the truth, please open the city and surrender immediately. In this case, my king Maybe he can forget the past and even stay in office!"

Liu Yu's majestic voice sounded, and everyone raised their hands, with excited and excited smiles on their faces.

Zhao Gou has been captured. If you think about it this way, the next step will be smooth, and the territory of the Song Dynasty will be in their hands.

This is so cool.

In a few months, they had successfully destroyed Zhao and Song. Next, they could start the prelude to destroying the Jin Kingdom in the north.

The Han people of the Jin Dynasty were humiliated, and they were bound to pay a heavy price.

【Ding!Congratulations to the host for capturing Emperor Zhao Gou of the Southern Song Dynasty. The national destiny of the Southern Song Dynasty has been greatly weakened again, and a large amount of national destiny has been plundered. The luck has blessed the host. Congratulations to the host for obtaining 821 national destiny points. 】

[The host currently has a total of 4414 national luck points! 】

The prompt sounded, Liu Yu's eyes flashed, and nearly a thousand points of national destiny were recorded in his account. He may have swallowed up all the national destiny of the Southern Song Dynasty.

At this time, carrying such a huge national destiny, Liu Yudu felt light all over, and there seemed to be a surging power in his hands.

……

Hebei, Yanjing.

The Jurchen Jin Kingdom was defeated from Yangzhou and retreated all the way north to Yanjing. The entire Central Plains was already in chaos. Han people everywhere organized rebels to resist the rule of the Jurchens.

Now, except for several large cities such as Kaifeng, Damingfu, Chang'an, and Luoyang, the Jurchen Jin Kingdom has lost almost all its territory.

but.

Even so, the Jurchen Jin Kingdom did not dare to send troops to various places to suppress the Han uprising.

Because, the Jurchen Jin Kingdom itself has fallen into chaos.

Emperor Wanyan Wu Qimai of the Jurchen Jin Kingdom died, his eldest son Wanyan Zongpan died in battle, and Wanyan Zongbi and Wanyan Zonghan, the most powerful marshals of the Jurchen Jin Kingdom, both died in battle.

The entire Jurchen Jin Kingdom fell into a situation of military and political leaderlessness.

In order to compete for the throne of the Jurchen Jin Kingdom, Wanyan Zonggu, son of Jin Taizong Wanyan Wu Qimai, took the lead in leading troops into Yanjing Mansion, hoping to use force to force Wanyan Xieye, Wanyan Zongqian and others to agree to make him emperor.

However, the inheritance of the Jurchen Jin Kingdom is from brother to brother!

Logically speaking, the eldest brother Wanyan Agu was beaten to death, and the second brother Wanyan Wu Qimai became the emperor. Now it should be the turn of the fifth brother Wanyan Xie who is still alive to become the emperor.

Wanyan Zonggu led his troops into the city to seize the throne. He clearly did not regard Wanyan Xieye, the emperor's uncle, as a piece of cake!
Therefore, at the Bojilie Conference, the highest meeting of the Jurchen Jin Kingdom, the emperor's uncle Wanyan Xie also scolded Wanyan Zonggu.

Unexpectedly, Wanyan Zonggu was not hesitant. He led his troops into Wanyan Xieye's mansion the next day and killed all of his uncle's family, including hundreds of people, including men, women, old and young, and even servants and maids. Killed them all.

Later, Wanyan Zonggu claimed to be the Emperor of the Jin Dynasty!

Such an operation will naturally not convince the public!

As a result, most people in the Jurchen Jin Kingdom ran to Wanyan Zongqian to ask for his orders and let Wanyan Zongqian uphold justice.

Wanyan Zongqian was the eldest son of the founding emperor Wanyan Aguda. His prestige and qualifications made him the No. 1 Jurchen Jin Kingdom. Naturally, he would not be convinced by Wanyan Zonggu's appointment as emperor.

Therefore, Wanyan Zongqian was elected by everyone and proclaimed himself emperor in his own palace. Then he led everyone into Wanyan Zonggu's mansion and killed Wanyan Zonggu's family.

Wanyan Zonggu had just passed the emperor's addiction for two days when he became a corpse.

The newly enthroned Wanyan Zongqian far surpassed everyone in terms of ability and ruthlessness.

For Wanyan Zongqian, just killing Wanyan Zonggu is simply not enough!

Wanyan Zonggu dared to care about the throne simply because his father was Jin Taizong Wanyan Wu Qimai, and Wanyan Wu Qimai had more than a dozen sons!
They all have the qualifications and hidden dangers of claiming emperor and rebellion!

Therefore, Wanyan Zongqian ordered that all the sons and grandsons of Jin Taizong Wanyan Wu Qimai be arrested and then secretly executed.

Poor Jin Taizong Wanyan Wu Qimai, his body was still cold, so he received the whole family's stabbing meal.

After all this turmoil, the Jurchen Jin Kingdom was finally stabilized internally, but its vitality was also completely damaged.

Now the Jurchen Jin Kingdom is no longer able to control the Central Plains, and it no longer dares to face the aggressive edge of the Han army!
Inside the Yanjing Palace.

Emperor Wanyan Zongqian of the Jin Dynasty was arranging tasks for General Wanyan Zongxian.

"We, Dajin, are short of food and grass, and the Central Plains are in chaos, so we can't collect taxes at all. Therefore, I ask you to go to Goryeo and lead [-] elite soldiers. If the King of Goryeo can pay a tribute of millions of food, grass, gold and silver, then everything will be fine. , if the King of Koryo doesn’t know how to look, then you can lead [-] elites to show the Koryo people something!”

The Han army won a great victory and showed strong fighting power. The Jin army was already afraid of the Han army, but the Goryeo and Jin countries were not afraid, and even looked down from a high position.

"The last will obey!"

After Wanyan Zongxian accepted the order, he immediately led [-] Jurchen cavalry to attack the Kingdom of Goryeo in a mighty manner.

The Goryeo Kingdom was weak and poor. If millions of grains, gold and silver were paid as tribute, the Goryeo monarchs and ministers would be almost bankrupt, so they naturally refused the Jurchen Jin Kingdom's request for tribute.

then.

After Wanyan Zongxian arrived at the Yalu River, he did not hesitate to launch an attack on Shuangshan City in Goryeo.

Jin Chengdao, the Goryeo general in Shuangshan City, only had more than 1 Goryeo troops under his command. Looking at the more than 2 Jurchen troops outside the city, he almost peed his pants in fear.

but.

Jin Chengdao also heard a lot about the ferocity of the Jurchens and did not dare to open the city to surrender. He could only resist desperately.

"Don't overestimate your capabilities, beat the drums, and attack the city!"

Wanyan Zongxian looked at Shuangshan City, smiled contemptuously, and ordered his [-] Jurchen Golden Army to attack Shuangshan City.

"kill!"

The Jurchen Golden Army shouted and rushed towards the city gate.

"Fire the arrow, shoot!"

On the city tower, Goryeo general Jin Chengdao gave an order, and the crossbowmen immediately fired arrows down the city wall.

Arrows rained down like rain.However, not many arrows hit the Jurchen Golden Army.

Wanyan Zongxian's soldiers cheered, their morale became even stronger, and they rushed towards the city gate.

When the crossbowmen on the city wall saw this, their hearts tightened, and they quickly fired another wave of arrows outside the city.

Seeing this, the Jurchens outside the city hurriedly dodge, but three or four Jurchens were still shot and killed. Although the remaining Jurchens escaped the rain of arrows from the crossbows, they were shot and wounded by the crossbowmen on the city. Falling to the ground and wailing.

Seeing this, Gao Lijun was overjoyed.

Although the Jurchens are brave and good at fighting, they are also made of flesh!
"rush!"

Wanyan Zongxian was so angry that he roared and took the lead in killing them.

"kill!"

The Jurchens also rushed up, and a large number of charging vehicles, ladders and other siege equipment were all arranged.

Soon, a large number of Jin troops attacked the tower.

The Jin army is strong.

More and more Jin troops boarded the tower.

For a time, both sides were bleeding like rivers, and there were screams, cries, and fighting sounds.

"No, the Jin army is too strong, run away!"

Many Goryeo soldiers ran away when they saw the fierce Jurchen offensive.

When Wanyan Zongxian saw the situation in Shuangshan City, a proud smile appeared on his face and he quickly issued an order:
"Publish this king's decree to kill one of the Goryeo soldiers and reward him with one tael of silver. Kill him!"

"Yes!"

At this moment, the people in Shuangshan City were already terrified.

They know that the Jin army is powerful.

However, they did not expect that Wanyan Zongxian could be so fierce!

The Jurchen regiment has already descended from the city tower. With swords and guns in hand, they are marching towards the city step by step.

"Slaughter the city!"

"Show Gaolinu how powerful he is!"

Wanyan Zongxian waved his hand and gave orders to his Jurchen Golden Army.

Upon hearing this order, the soldiers of the Jurchen Jin Army howled excitedly, then rushed into Shuangshan City and began to massacre the city.

The people of Goryeo began to panic. They fled in all directions, and some even resisted.

There are also Goryeo generals who lead their troops to fight back. If they don't fight back, they will die.

"Kill them all!"

"Kill them all for me!"

Wanyan Zongxian saw this and sneered disdainfully.

"kill!"

"kill!"

Cries of killing spread throughout Shuangshan City, and the Jurchens, amidst the screams of the Goryeo people, crazily slaughtered the people of Shuangshan City.

"Wanyan Zongxian, you must die a happy death!"

"what!"

"I won't let you go even if I'm a ghost!"

"what"

"Pfft."

The Jurchen's sharp blade pierced the throat of the Korean soldier, and blood spurted out, staining the entire land red.

"General, save me, general, save me"

A Goryeo soldier shouted in horror, knowing that he was going to die.

"General save me!"

"General, save me, general, save me!"

"."

Seeing this, other Goryeo soldiers also started crying, hoping that their commander could help.

"Wanyan Zongxian, you don't have to die well, you don't have to die well."

The Goryeo general also saw his men being killed and couldn't help roaring angrily. At the same time, he waved the sword in his hand, and then rushed towards Wanyan Zongxian.

When Wanyan Zongxian saw the Goryeo general's actions, he couldn't help but sneered and slammed down the mace in his hand.

"Oh!"

With a muffled sound, Wanyan Zongxian's mace hit the Goryeo general on the shoulder, knocking him away and hitting the ground, vomiting blood.

"what"

"General."

When the Goryeo soldiers saw this, they couldn't help but look desperate.

The entire Goryeo army in Shuangshan City no longer has the ability to resist.

After a day of massacre, tens of thousands of Korean people and soldiers in Shuangshan City were all slaughtered by the Jurchens.

When the news reached the King of Goryeo, Wang Kai was so frightened that he almost fainted.

"It's bad, it's bad. The Jurchens are so cruel. We, Goryeo, are going to be doomed!" Wang Kai felt extremely regretful. He really didn't expect that the Jurchens were so powerful.

Originally, Wang Kai and other Goryeo monarchs and ministers believed that the strength of the Jin army was greatly reduced after hearing that the Jurchen Jin Kingdom was defeated in Yangzhou and civil strife broke out.

but.

Never thought of it!
The Jurchen Jin Kingdom, whose vitality was severely damaged, was still so strong!

Shuangshan City, the gateway fortress of Goryeo Kingdom, was actually breached by the Jurchen Jin Kingdom in a few days!
"Your Majesty, I think it is better to send someone immediately to have peace talks with the Jurchen Jin Army and pray for an armistice!" Jin Ximin, the prime minister of Goryeo, said loudly.

"Yes, Your Majesty, the Jurchens are too strong, let's seek peace!"

"Your Majesty, if the Jurchens want 100 million grain, grass, gold and silver, then give it to them. Otherwise, our country, Goryeo, may be destroyed. The Jin army is too strong!"

Suddenly, almost all the ministers in the Goryeo court advised Wang Kai, the king of Goryeo, to surrender to the Jurchen Jin Kingdom.

When Wang Kai heard this, he couldn't help but fell into silence.

Of course he doesn't want to, but if he doesn't agree now, Goryeo will fall under the butcher's knife of the Jin army.

"That's all, just listen to the Qing family and agree to the Jurchens first. After the Jurchens get the grain and gold and silver, let them withdraw to the Jurchen Golden Kingdom!" Wang Kai finally compromised.

"According to the order!"

When the ministers saw that the monarch was relieved, they all looked pleased.

Goryeo.

"Report!"

"Reporting to the Imperial Preceptor, the Jurchens have captured Shuangshan City and massacred the city, killing tens of thousands of our Goryeo soldiers and civilians!"

"Hmph, these Jurchens are really vicious."

Miaoqing stood in the study room, after listening to the report from her subordinates, her face was uncertain.

In Goryeo, although Miaoqing was a monk, he was very keen on military and political affairs and often made suggestions for the king of Goryeo.

"Come here, prepare a carriage for me. I want to enter the palace to see the king!" Miaoqing said loudly.

An hour later, Miaoqing arrived at the Goryeo Palace.

Wang Kai, the king of Goryeo, saw Monk Miaoqing and said with a depressed look: "Master, the Jurchens are too strong. We, Goryeo, can't fight, so we can only sue for peace."

"Your Majesty, we cannot fight against the Jurchens, but we can ask for help from the Han!" Monk Miaoqing said.

"Big Han? Are you talking about the Big Han King Wu Liu Yu?" Wang Kai, the king of Goryeo, said with his eyes shining immediately.
