Rebirth: Overthrow Song Dynasty

Zhao Ji, Ge Bing, Liu Shikai, Wang Xuan and others finally stabilized their minds, and Zhao Xun, who was next to him, had a curious look on his face at the moment, and couldn't wait to take a look! This Zhao Xun was only four years old. He grew up in the Five Kingdoms City. The Five Kingdoms City is said to be a "city", but in fact it is just a small town. There are thousands of Song monarchs and nobles living in it, and there are still others. More than two thousand Jurchen soldiers. Since childhood, Zhao Xun had never heard such a shouting and killing, so he was very interested in it.

"Go, let's go and take a look." Zhao Ji said.

Ge Bing, Liu Shikai, Wang Xuan and others nodded one after another, and they headed south under the leadership of the soldiers in front.

The snow continued to fall, and only creaked when they walked on the road. They kept going forward, two miles away, and came to the southernmost part of Shanhaiguan.

This Shanhaiguan is said to be a "gate", but in fact it is also a simple city. In ancient times, there were also yamen here, and the area was not small.

After arriving here, they came to the southern city wall.

To the south of Shanhaiguan, here is a plain!

There is also white snow on the plain, and thousands of soldiers are training here at the moment!

I saw all the soldiers shouting together, and stab their spears toward the front fiercely together! All the soldiers are trying their best to assassinate forward, and every time they assassinate forward, there will be a "kill"! There is a square team for every thousand people, and there is an army of 100,000 people in front of them, and there are countless squares!

Kill kill kill!

One after another, the soldiers were desperately shouting and training desperately. Such a scene made Zhao Ji and others stay there!

Zhao Ji has never seen such a scene! When he was in Kaifeng, 800,000 imperial troops were stationed around Kaifeng. He also went to the imperial army barracks to investigate, but how did the imperial soldiers look like the following soldiers? Although the soldiers of the Imperial Army were standing there and arranged in rows, he thought it was good at the time, but compared with the soldiers below, the soldiers of the Imperial Army in Kaifeng Mansion before gave them shoes that they didn’t deserve!

A hundred thousand people did morning exercises together, and everyone was stunned.

"There is such a strong army in the world?" After a while, Zhao Ji's voice became dry.

"It's no wonder these warriors are so domineering! Below this is a tiger wolf division!" said Liu Shikai, who once served as the minister of war.

"I'm afraid that the former Western Army was not so elite, right?" Zhao Ji swallowed and said.

"Don't say it's the Western Army, I'm afraid that Jurchen is not so elite." Ge Bing felt trembling all over, said.

"I didn't expect that this Liu Qi turned out to be a famous general, and he could train such a strong soldier. No wonder he is arrogant and domineering!" The once famous prefect Wang Xuandao.

"Your Majesty, what should I do?" Ge Bing said fiercely.

"Such a strong army, that is the scene of the Fanzhen in the late Tang Dynasty! There is no one in the world to control!" Zhao Ji felt that his body was a little weak, said.

The scene below was so shocking that Zhao Ji didn't even dare to look down.

"We can only take one step and see one step! The Jurchen let us come back, but they didn't tell me that there is such a brave general as Liu Qi in the world." Liu Shikai said.

Several people stood here feeling cold all over, only Zhao Xun was being held, and at this moment, he was dancing with excitement. His four-year-old child was shocked and joyful when he saw such a scene.

"Your Majesty, there seems to be words written over there?" At this moment, Ge Bing said fiercely.

Zhao Ji, Liu Shikai, Wang Xuan and others followed Ge Bing's fingers and saw the four characters "All the people are soldiers" written on the wall over there.

Soon Zhao Ji and others discovered that the rest of the walls were also written in different large characters, or slogans, some of which were "infinite love, infinite worship, infinite faith, and infinite loyalty", and in some places, "I would rather go forward and die. Don’t retreat for half a life.” Some are “hundreds of millions of people and billions of soldiers, thousands of miles of soldiers, thousands of miles of camps”, and others of “we must study your majesty’s great thoughts every day, and we must resolutely implement your majesty’s great strategic instructions. ".

Many slogans were written on the front walls, and Zhao Ji and others were stunned.

Zhao Ji thought for a while. He took a group of former ministers and walked down from the city wall. The southern city gate was wide open. They walked out of the city gate, and no one intercepted them.

Zhao Ji turned around and saw three large characters "Shanhaiguan" written on the top of the towering Shanhaiguan gate, but above the "Shanhaiguan" was a huge portrait! The portrait shows a young man over ten years old, his face is serious, his eyes are looking forward, and he feels heroic and unobtrusive!

Looking at this portrait, Zhao Ji felt a little depressed in his heart, and he unexpectedly lowered his head involuntarily.

The other ministers also looked up, and when they saw this huge portrait, they didn't dare to look at it.

In front is the one hundred thousand army that is training, and in front is a square formation. At this moment, the spears in the hands of the thousand soldiers of that square are pierced in the direction of the city gate, and their roaring "kill" is also passed over. Zhao Ji was unstable and almost fell. Fortunately, the soldiers beside him supported him.

"Whose portrait is this?" Zhao Ji said.

"Of course this is my portrait of Emperor Song Emperor!" The soldier next to him immediately stood up straight, first paid a military salute to the portrait, and then said.

"It turned out to be Chen'er's portrait, why did you hang his portrait on the tower?" Zhao Ji said.

"Your Majesty is the most respected person in the hearts of all the soldiers of the Song Dynasty. We naturally want to hang his portrait here! Under the eyes of your Majesty, every soldier dare not slacken! Every morning, we have to face the portrait of His Majesty. Ask for instructions and report in the evening! Actually, there are many portraits of your Majesty everywhere in the Song Dynasty, especially in Guanshan, Hanzhong, Sichuan and Shu, and tens of millions of people have to ask for instructions on the portraits of His Majesty. , Evening report." The soldier said respectfully.

"This..." Zhao Ji was stunned.

The ministers behind were also stunned.

And the soldiers around looked at the portrait with a fanatical expression on their faces!

The sound of shouting and killing around is still coming continuously!

The wind was howling, and the weather was abnormally cold, but Zhao Ji and others were still standing there. They wanted to see how long the hundred thousand troops in front of them could train.

After two hours, until noon, the army training finally stopped.

At this moment, the 100,000 army began to move towards the surrounding barracks in an orderly manner! Everywhere you can hear the sound of counting the number, walking in unison, etc., and occasionally you can hear the slogan of one, two, three, and four.

At this moment, a big man came over from a distance. In the snowy weather, this big man turned out to be shirtless. His body was full of sweat, and his head was steaming.

This big man was Liu Qi. When Liu Qi came to the bottom of the tower, a soldier handed the towel over. Liu Qi wiped off the sweat from his body and put on his clothes. Then he walked towards Zhao Ji and the others.

"Sovereign, how about the soldiers and horses of my Liaodong Military Region?" Liu Qi smiled.

"Zhenai is the teacher of the tiger and wolf! I really didn't expect that General Liu, you are the world's number one military trainer, and you can train a hundred thousand strong army!" Zhao Ji has not spoken yet, Liu Shikai, who once served as the minister of war, has sincerely said.

"The world's top military training master, I dare not be! When I was in Guanshan, Yue Fei's soldiers and horses were stronger than mine! Now in my Liaodong Military Region, more than half of the people come from the former Guanshan Forbidden Army. We still have forty thousand cavalry, and we have to train every day, but we train on the grasslands in the north of Shanhaiguan!" Liu Qi said.

"Who is Yue Fei?" Ge Bing asked with interest.

"Yue Fei is the number one man of your Majesty's military exploits. He has repeatedly defeated Jurchen!" Liu Qi said.

"Beat Jurchen many times? How is this possible? Jurchen is invincible, no one in the world knows that no one knows!" Zhao Ji said coldly.

"The Supreme Emperor, Jurchen's invincibility is just that they brag about it. In front of my son, Jurchen has only one way to perish!" Liu Qi said.

"Although your soldiers and horses are strong, you must never look down on Jurchens! Jurchens are ten or a hundred times stronger than our Hans! This time, fortunately, Jurchens are magnanimous and let us come back! I have already promised Jurchens and want to be with them. To build a brotherhood, Jurchens are brothers, and we are brothers!" Zhao Ji said.

After Zhao Ji said this, Liu Qi was stunned.

After a while, Liu Qi laughed.

"General Liu, what are you laughing at?" Zhao Ji frowned.

He felt Liu Qi's rudeness more and more! He is the Supreme Emperor, his status and status far surpass Liu Qi, but Liu Qi dared to laugh wildly in front of him. If he was the emperor ten years ago, he would have to kill Liu Qi now!

"The Supreme Emperor doesn't know the general trend of the world now! The Jurchens first entered Guanshan, and we led the army to defeat Jurchen! Then we entered Xixia and destroyed the country! In the six years of Xuanwu, we wiped out the 200,000 Jurchen army that invaded the Central Plains! The situation in the world is like this. Hundreds of millions of people in the world know that our great Song soldiers and horses are better than Jurchen soldiers and horses, and the great Song soldiers and horses are stronger than the Han and Tang Dynasties, and your majesty said that the Jurchen soldiers and horses are ten times stronger than our Han people. Not ridiculous?" Liu Qi said.

Although Liu Qi respected Zhao Ji and others on the surface, he was a bit disdainful in his heart! In his opinion, the two emperors Zhao Ji and Zhao Huan were defeated by the Jurchens, so he always thought that Jurchen was strong! Now the national strength and military strength of the Song Dynasty have long surpassed Jurchen, but because Yanyun and the Central Plains have just been regained, the land area has increased, and because of the constraints of money, food, logistics, governance, etc., they did not immediately go north to eliminate gold, and Zhao Ji actually thought Jurchen is strong, and it is necessary to establish a "brotherhood" with Jurchen, and recognize the enemy as brother. How can this be unridiculous?

Liu Qi respected Zhao Chen, but for the rest of the Zhao Song imperial family, he didn't have much favor in his heart! Wasn't it because of the people in front of you that the Northern Song Dynasty destroyed the country and Kaifeng was destroyed?

"This... General Liu, the soldiers and horses you marked are indeed powerful, but you look down on Jurchen so much, I'm afraid you are a little arrogant, right?" Liu Shikai said.

"I'm not arrogant! The Great Song Dynasty is stronger than Jurchen. This is a fact proved by the Six Years' War, not me!" Liu Qi said.

"General Liu, are you doing a big **** once a year?" Ge Bing said.

"Once a year? This is a morning exercise once a day! Half an hour later, it will be a marching exercise in the afternoon! In the evening, a unified military study will be carried out!" Liu Qi said.

"Once a day? Impossible! General Liu joked! Back then, the Western Army had the strongest kind of family army, but it was also three days, one small training, five days, one big training, once a day. Could these lowly soldiers be defeated by iron?" Ge Bing said with a smile.

"First of all, I want to say that soldiers will never be lowly! Without them, there would be no Da Song now! Even your Majesty will never say that soldiers are lowly, Lord Ge, I hope you will not say such things in the future! Your Majesty will enter the barracks and The soldiers ate and slept together, and treated the soldiers as brothers. How dare you look down on the soldiers?" Liu Qi had a mocking smile on his face, and Ge Bing's face flushed with anger. Liu Qi ignored him and continued: " Every one of our soldiers in the Song Dynasty is an iron fighter! There are millions of soldiers in the Song Dynasty, who doesn't do morning exercises every day and trains endlessly every day!"

"I'm going to stay here for a few days to see if that's the case! Except for the Iron Man, no one in the world can train every day!" Ge Bing said coldly.

"Okay! You can stay as many days as you like! You can even stay for a year to see if my Da Song's soldiers are like this!" Liu Qi said lightly.

"General Liu, what is the unified military study at night?" Liu Shikai said.

"Study the infantry code, the latest instructions from your majesty, and the great ideas of your majesty." Liu Qi said.

"This..." Liu Shikai was stunned.

Zhao Ji felt that his mind was a little confused, and everything in front of him seemed different from what he had imagined. His grandson, the current Emperor Song Dynasty, seemed not to be a puppet, but rather had high prestige in the army! He has never heard of many things, has never seen it!

"The Emperor, it's already noon, I have someone prepare a meal, and I will dine with you! In the past, I ate with the soldiers!" Liu Qi said.

"You used to have dinner with the soldiers?" Zhao Ji said in disbelief.

"Yes! When Guan Shan and Hanzhong, Your Majesty ate with the soldiers, let alone me?" Liu Qi said.

"You mean Chen'er also dines with these soldiers?" Zhao Ji said.

He heard "eat and sleep together" just now, and now he finally couldn't help but ask.

"This is natural! At first, Zhe could beg for rebellion and rebellion. His Majesty tolerated for a year before he could kill him. After that, his Majesty entered the Zhejia Army, eating and sleeping with Zhejia Army soldiers every day. Training, the army of the Zhe family was recovered by your majesty!" Liu Qi said.

"I don't believe it! General Liu, why don't we accompany you to eat with those soldiers today? I want to see if you can eat it!" Ge Bing said with disdain.

In the past, the soldiers in the Great Song Army ate very poorly, it was simply pig food, and most people couldn't eat it at all. That's why Ge Bing said this.

"Okay! Since you want to have dinner with the soldiers, let's go!" Liu Qi said lightly.

"Go to that barracks!" Ge Bing pointed to the distance and said.

"Good!" Liu Qi nodded.

They followed Liu Qi towards the barracks, which was more than two miles away. If it had been in Kaifeng, Zhao Ji and others would have never walked forward like this. However, after spending a few years in the Five Kingdoms City, they would have Walking on foot is considered normal.

After arriving at the barracks, the soldiers were having a meal. When they saw them coming in, no one of the soldiers stood up to salute, and no one paid much attention to them.

Zhao Ji, Ge Bing and others looked at the soldiers’ rice bowls, and were surprised to find that the soldiers were eating Bai Shengsheng steamed buns. The dishes were stewed dishes, and there were still pieces of meat inside. They were all stunned! They have never had such a good meal when they were in the Five Kingdoms City! In the Five Kingdoms City, they can't fill their stomachs all year round, and sometimes even have to eat mice and leaves! They thought that the soldiers were eating terribly, but they knew it was so!

"Are there any deductions from the army in this army? The soldiers are eating too well, right? Logically speaking, the soldiers' meals should have been corrupted a long time ago?" Zhao Ji said.

He didn't understand these principles at first, but when he was in the Five Kingdoms City, he was reflecting on what he had done in the past while chatting with the rest of the ministers who were trapped in prison, so he knew about the dark activities in the army.

"Taking off the army's salary? Your Majesty, who in the Song Army has the courage? Embezzling soldiers' food? Even if it is embezzling a couple of silver, it is a crime of death. Who is tired of living and dares to do this?" Liu Qi said coldly.

"General Liu rules the army strictly, admire!" Liu Shikai said.

"Millions of the army of the Great Song Dynasty are all like this! Millions of soldiers, everyone knows the military law is like a mountain, no general dares to deduct the army's salary or embezzle the army, this is nothing." Liu Qi said indifferently.

Liu Qi personally went to serve everyone, and the food was the same as that used by ordinary soldiers. Zhao Ji and others began to feast on it! Especially Zhao Xun, he has not eaten a full meal several times since he was born, and it was the sweetest one he had eaten last night and noon today!

In the afternoon, the soldiers really came out to train again, still shouting and killing, and the soldiers were sweating! Liu Qi led Zhao Ji and others to walk around in the barracks. They saw that in some companies, the soldiers took off their shirts uniformly. They shouted and rushed towards the snowdrift ahead, and they wiped the snow on their own. There was a wild laugh on his body, and someone was constantly beating his chest to express excitement.

Zhao Ji felt that the soldiers in front of him were like wild beasts, and he couldn't help frowning. Ge Bing said, "Why are they like barbarians? You must not train soldiers like this in the future!"

Liu Qi said: "Our army of millions is to make them brave and barbaric, just like the barbarians outside the Great Wall! However, we have steel disciplines that the barbarians outside the Great Wall do not have. We have weapons and tactics that are countless times more advanced than them, so we will Better than all barbarians!"

Zhao Ji, Ge Bing, and others still couldn't accept this kind of statement. They all shook their heads. For the soldiers in front of them, their eyes showed disgust!

The heavy snow keeps falling, and the soldiers keep training. Years and months of training shows that the soldiers are extremely strong, far better than the former Forbidden Army and the Western Army! Zhao Ji and others looked a little boring, and finally decided to leave.

At this moment, the sound of countless cavalry galloping in the distance was heard, and after a while, there was a loud sound of long live from the army ahead, and then long live the sound of the whole Shanhaiguan!

Zhao Chen finally arrived!
