Chapter 545 Boyan Enters Lin'an City
The Song court ordered Wu Jian to be the left prime minister and Chang Shi as the chief minister. On the afternoon, the imperial edict was issued to Ciyuan Palace, and only six civil officials arrived. Soon after, Chang Shi fled again. Then he heard that the prefect of Jiaxing Liu Hanjie had already surrendered to the Mongolian army, and the garrison general Wu Guoding of Anji Prefecture also lost money to the Mongolian army. The prefect Zhao Liangchun and Tixing Xu Daolong died one after another, and the soldiers at various passes were dispersed. The Empress Dowager was in panic day and night, so he wanted to submit to Meng and submitted a letter to beg for peace.
Chen Yizhong looked embarrassed, and the Empress Dowager said sadly: "If the country can be preserved, it is not worthy of paying respects." So he sent the Censor Liu Le to the Mongolian Army to submit his tribute to the title of Mengzhu, expressing his willingness to pay 250,000 silver and silk every year, but begging for the preservation of the land. Boyan still refused to agree, believing that the monarch and ministers of the Song Dynasty must surrender. Liu Le had no choice but to repay, and the Empress Dowager summoned a meeting of ministers.
Wen Tianxiang requested the order of King Ji, and King Xin went out to govern Min, Guang, and Xu Tu to restore the discussion. There was no decision. The ministers of the royal family agreed to Wen Tianxiang's opinion. The closing meeting promoted King Ji Zhao to King Yi, and sent him to Fuzhou, and King Xin was sent to Quanzhou. Chen Yizhong led all the ministers into the palace and asked to move the capital. The Empress Dowager refused to agree, so Chen Yizhong cried and asked for the request, so the court ordered him to pack up and prepare to set off.
At night, Chen Yizhong did not meet. The Empress Dowager was furious and said, "I didn't want to move to fight, but after the ministers asked him to do so, he had this order. But he came to deceive me?" So she took off her hairpin and threw it on the ground, closed her eyes and cried. In fact, Chen Yizhong did not bully the army in person, but because of the incoming affairs, he did not have time to report the situation, so he made such a mistake. After a night, he heard that Boyan had arrived at Gaoting Mountain, Alahan, and Dong Wenbing's army meeting, and the vanguard went straight to Beixin Pass of Lin'an Prefecture. Wen Tianxiang and Zhang Shijie jointly requested that they would move the three palaces to sea, and decided to follow their elder brother to fight against the city. Chen Yizhong felt that it was a dangerous time, and he entered the secret plan to enter the state, so he actually sent the censor Yang Yingkui to the Mongolian military camp with the imperial seal and the surrender.
Boyan took the seal and asked Yang Yingkui to go back. He sent a message to Prime Minister Chen Yizhong, asking him to leave the city to discuss surrender. Unexpectedly, Chen Yizhong fled at night. Zhang Shijie, Liu Shiyong and others surrendered without fighting and went into the sea. Mongolia sent the commander-in-chief Bian Biao to persuade Zhang Shijie to surrender. Zhang Shijie cut off Bian Biao's tongue and killed his son. Liu Shiyong became sick and died of alcohol.
At this time, the Empress Dowager had to continue to surrender, so she ordered Wen Tianxiang to be the right prime minister and Wu Jian to go to the Yuan army with the left prime minister. Wen Tianxiang immediately went with Wu Jian. When he saw Boyan, Wen Tianxiang spoke, "If the Northern Dynasties regard Song as their country, please withdraw troops from Pingjiang or Jiaxing, and then discuss annual tribute and gold and silk to reward the troops. The best strategy is to be able to return the entire army. If you must destroy the clan society, I am afraid that Huai, Zhejiang, Fujian and Guang, you have not yet captured the army, and the soldiers are in trouble, and it is difficult to predict. Please investigate carefully!" Because Boyan was not rude in his language, he was left in the army and sent Wu Jian back to the capital.
Boyan immediately changed Lin'an to the Governor's Office of Liangzhe University, and ordered generals to Wutai and surrender Fan Wenhu to enter the city to manage the affairs. He ordered Zhang Hui, Alahan, Dong Wenbing, Zhang Hongfan, Suodu and others to enfeoff the treasury, collect books from the Shiguan Li Temple and the seals of the hundred talismans, and dismissed the government and the guards. Then he asked for palace maids and eunuchs and other officials, and most of the palace maids went to the Water Festival for the Death Festival.
The Empress Dowager ordered Jia
Yu Qing was the right prime minister. Liu Wei signed the letter to the Privy Council. He signed the letter to the Privy Council with Wu Jian, the left prime minister, Xuan Weng, and others, and prayed to the envoy Ru Yuan to go to the military camp of Boyan first. Boyan quoted Wen Tianxiang and Jian as the same person. Jia Yuqing talked a lot, and Wen Tianxiang angrily scolded Jia Yuqing for robbing the country and blamed Boyan for breaking his trust. Lu Wenhuan persuaded him from the side. Wen Tianxiang stood up and scolded Lu Wenhuan and said, "Your family has received great kindness from the country, but you can't die." He also prayed to send an envoy to the north, and while entering the Qiantang River. There was a tide in Qianjiang River, two words a day. People in Lin'an were counting on the waves and washed away. Who knew that the tide did not come for three days, and public opinion thought that the number of days was so naturally he sighed one after another.
Boyan heard that King Yi and King Guang had already left Lin'an, so he sent Fan Wenhu to lead his troops to chase south. The son-in-law Yang Zhen originally followed the two kings, but after he received the report, he went back to Lin'an and said goodbye to the two kings, "I will die here to slow the pursuit of the troops." On the way, he met Fan Wenhu and pretended that the two kings had gone to the town. Fan Wenhu captured him and went back to report. After Boyan entered Lin'an City, he built a general and led tens of thousands of households on the left and right wings.
He patrols the city and watches the tide of Zhejiang. He climbed the Lion Gate to see Lin'an's victory. Some generals captured King Fu and Rui and came from Shaoxing. Boyan comforted him and ordered him to follow Emperor Zhao Xian and Queen Mother Quan to enter the Yuandu. He sent envoys to the palace to announce an edict, and avoided the rituals of tying the sheep. In the second year of Deyou, Boyan kidnapped Emperor Zhao Xian and Queen Mother Quan, and went north together with King Fu Zhao and Rui, King Yi Zhao and You, Mrs. Huang of Longguo, Prince Yang Zhen of the Prince Consort Yang Zhen, and others.
Zhao Xian was captured, except for Queen Mother Quan, Fu, the two kings of Yi, the wife of Longguo, and the son-in-law Duwei, the concubine Xie Tang, Gao Mengsong, Liu Baoran and the third student all followed the north. The student Xu Yingbing, the two sons Xu Qi, Xu Song, and a daughter Yuanniang all jumped into the well and died of martyrdom. The Empress Dowager Xie was sick and could not walk, so he stayed in Lin'an for a while.
Boyan left Alahan, Dong Wenbing and others to manage Fujian and Zhejiang, and he kidnapped Zhao Xian and others to the north. At that time, Xie Fangde, the governor of Xinzhou, drove away his troops and rushed to Jianning Mountain. His wife was arrested and Jiangdong was captured. The commander Xia Gui then surrendered Huaixi, and the army of Zhenchao was killed by Xia Gui. Only Huaidong, Zhen, Yang, and Taizhou were still sorry for Song Tu.
Sun Huchen was already worried, Li Tingzhi, Jiang Cai, Miao Zaicheng and others were all defending each other. Wen Tianxiang and his attendant Du Hu and twelve others fled into Zhenzhou at night. Miao Zaicheng came out to greet him, and shed tears in her eyes and said with joy: "The soldiers of the two Huai Rivers can restore the Song Dynasty, but the two commanders have some contradictions and cannot work together." Wen Tianxiang asked: "Where did this strategy come from?" Miao Zaicheng replied: "Now, let's ask the Huaixi soldiers to rush to Jiankang first, they will definitely do their best to defend our Huaixi soldiers. Command the generals in the east, use Tongzhou and Taizhou soldiers to attack Wantou, and use Gaoyou, Baoying and Huai'an soldiers to attack Yangziqiao, and use Yang
When the state soldiers attacked Guabu, I led the navy to attack Zhenjiang and launched a large number of troops on the same day. Wantou and Yangziqiao were all fragile troops along the Yangtze River. I hope that our army would attack and attack them day and night, and they would win quickly. Attack Guabu, I led my troops from three directions to feint attacks with fewer soldiers from the surface of the Yangtze River. Although wise people could not predict this. After Guabu was captured, the army in the east attacked Jingkou, and the soldiers in the west attacked Jinling, threatening Zhejiang's retreat, so the general of the Yuan army could be captured alive." Wen Tianxiang praised this and immediately wrote a letter to send two envoys to contact each other.
When Wen Tianxiang arrived, there was a run away in Yangzhou
The returned soldiers said: "The court secretly sent a prime minister to Zhenzhou to persuade him to surrender." Li Tingzhi believed it, and believed that Wen Tianxiang had persuaded surrender, so he sent Miao Zaicheng to kill Wen Tianxiang quickly. Miao Zaicheng could not bear to kill him, so he deceived Wen Tianxiang to the outside of Xiangcheng, showed him the documents of the General Office, and locked him outside the door. After a long time, two groups of people were sent to examine and confirm whether Tianxiang was here to persuade him to surrender. If he was persuaded to surrender, he would kill him. After the two groups of people talked to Tianxiang, they confirmed that he was loyal and righteous, and they couldn't bear to kill him. They sent twenty soldiers along the way to escort to Yangzhou. When the drum sounded at the fourth o'clock in the morning, they arrived at the city. After listening to the talks of those waiting to open the city gate, the General Office ordered Wen Tianxiang to be strictly guarded.
After hearing this, Wen Tianxiang and his followers stuck out their tongues, so they went east into the seaway, met the Yuan army, hid in the surrounding earth walls to avoid disaster. However, because of hunger, they could not walk, so they asked the woodcutters for some leftovers. When they walked to Banqiao, the Yuan army came again, and everyone ran into the bamboo forest to hide. The Yuan army entered the bamboo forest to search, and seized Du Hu, and Jin Ying took it away. Yu Hou Zhang Qing was shot with an arrow in his eyes and was arrowed twice. Wen Tianxiang was not discovered twice and was able to escape. Du Hu, Jin Ying took out the gold and silver on his body to the Yuan army, and was released. He hired two woodcutters to carry Wen Tianxiang, who was sitting in the basket, to Gaoyou, and took a boat to Wenzhou. On the way, he heard that King Yi Zhao Xing had established Fuzhou and changed his life to Jingyan, so he sailed from Wenzhou again and rushed to Fuzhou.
It turned out that King Yi Zhao Cang and his younger brother King Guang Zhao Bing traveled south of Zhejiang, with Zhao Cang's mother Yang Shufei and Concubine Shu's younger brother Liangjie. Yu Xiurong's younger brother Yu Rugui, and the royal family King Xiu and King Qi, supported him and chased him. On the way, he walked in the mountains for seven days. Fortunately, the commander Zhang Quan led dozens of cavalry guards to Wenzhou together.
Song ministers Lu Xiufu, Su Liuyi and others also came one after another and proposed to summon Chen Yizhong in Qingao. Zhang Shijie was sent to Dinghai and sent envoys to go. Soon Chen and Zhang Du arrived, so King Yi Zhao Jing was the marshal of the capital, King Guang Zhao Bing was the deputy, and sent troops to eliminate officials. He also ordered King Xiu Zhao and Qi to be the visiting envoy of Fujian, first entered Fujian, pacified officials and people, and ordered all the loyal and righteous people to conspire for restoration. The people of Fujian responded a lot. So Chen Yizhong and others took the two kings to Fuzhou and appointed King Yi Zhao Jing as the emperor, changed the title of the first year of Jingyan, respected Concubine Yang Shu as the imperial concubine, and took the emperor to rule. Zhao Xian was honored as Emperor Gong, and appointed King Guang Bing as King Wei.
The court was appointed as the left prime minister and Privy Councilor of Chen Yizhong, and was in charge of the army and horses. Li Tingzhi was the right prime minister, Chen Wenlong and Liu Fu were the governor of the political affairs, Zhang Shijie was the deputy envoy of the Privy Council, Lu Xiufu signed a letter to the Privy Council, and Su Liuyi was in charge of the front office of the Palace. He ordered his old ministers Zhao Yi, Fu Zhuo, Li Ban, Zhai Guoxiu and others to send troops in separate ways, and changed Fuzhou to Anfu Prefecture and Wenzhou to Ruian Prefecture, and the world was pardoned as usual. On this day, a loud voice came out of the mansion, which shocked many slaves.
A few days later, Wen Tianxiang came to visit him. The court suggested that Li Tingzhi guarded Huaidong and was inconvenient to come to Fujian, so the right prime minister was still full. Therefore, the court appointed Wen Tianxiang as the right prime minister and also the official of the Privy Council.
Wen Tianxiang did not like Chen Yizhong and refused to accept it, so he was appointed as the Privy Councilor and the general of the army. Wen Tianxiang asked to return to Wenzhou to make progress. However, Chen Yizhong wanted to rely on Zhang Shijie to recover Liangzhe and make up for his previous mistakes. Therefore, he specially ordered Wen Tianxiang to open the Nanjianzhou mansion to manage Jiangxi. Wu Jun sent troops to defeat Nanfeng, Yihuang and Ningdu counties, and Zhai Guoxiu also made progress to Xiushan.
