Chapter five hundred and fifty leave
Zhang Weiqing is an honest man. He has been guarding the house and guarding the imperial guards. He is still just a baron now, which can be said to be very incompatible with his profound qualifications.
Deep down in his heart, he was still very happy to finally go out to war.
"Your Majesty still hasn't forgotten me after all!"
So he happily led an army of 20,000 from Yuezhou and headed for Hongzhou.
Just as he left, the envoy for help from Shu Kingdom came.
"Your Majesty, Shu Kingdom is in danger. I hope you can send troops to save us in the sake of the alliance between the two countries!"
The messenger said with tears in his eyes, dusty, and he didn't know whether the clothes on his body were true or false, and they were torn, not to mention how miserable it was.
"Oh? Your country has an army of 300,000, and the Central Plains has only 40,000 people. How could it be so far?"
The report from the Shooting Department came faster than the envoy. It had arrived yesterday. Although Li Jia knew it, she still asked questions with knowledge.
"Wang Zhaoyuan underestimated the enemy and advanced rashly, so that the army suffered heavy losses and lost Jianmen Pass..."
Of course, the envoy would not say that his country's army was too bad, so he could only put the blame on Wang Zhaoyuan.
"But that Bashu Zhuge Kongming?" Li Jia said jokingly.
The messenger's face turned red in an instant, he lowered his head, and was extremely ashamed.
The prime ministers next to them twitched, obviously feeling very painful.
"Where is the Song army? How safe is your king?" After all, he was an ally. Li Jia smiled and asked directly.
The envoy had nothing to hide. He simply mentioned the Song army's troops to Jinzhou and the Shu court was preparing to hunt Kuizhou in the east, and made the final counterattack, and briefly explained it.
"Kuizhou!!" Li Jia murmured, thinking a lot.
Kuizhou is an ancient and important place in the southwest, with a very important location.
However, if Meng Chang really arrived in Kuizhou, he could still survive for a while by relying on the dangerous geographical location of Kuizhou.
At that time, in the name of using the army to help suppress the enemy, he sent a large army to Shu, and then eroded Bashu little by little, and then he could complete Liu Bei's measures.
"Kuizhou is extremely advantageous. The ability of your country's king to go to Kuizhou is a move of chess!" Wang Ning couldn't help but feel excited and said.
"Your country and the two countries have already had an alliance and have given me a lot of food and grass, so that our country will invade Jinling, and it is certain to send troops."
Li Jia came back to her senses and said excitedly: "The Central Plains are domineering and entering Shu for no reason. People and gods are angry. How can there be a reason for immortality?"
"Your country only needs to stick to it for a while, our country will inevitably send troops."
"Your Majesty is kind!!" the envoy said excitedly.
The subsequent North Korean debate ended.
The memorial to send troops to Bashu was quickly passed, and everyone was very conscious and knew what strategy was.
If there are cows like Bashu in the huge Central Plains, it will be a disaster for the southern countries.
Therefore, no matter how difficult it is, with tears in our hearts, we must help Meng Chang's Shu Kingdom.
No matter how bad it is, we must take back Kuizhou and other places and see the pace of the Central Plains going south. Otherwise, Jiangling will be in danger from top to bottom.
...
In 962 AD, in the third year of Shenwu, Chengdu.
The sky was gray, which seemed to set off the situation, and was gloomy and cold.
On both sides of Chengdu Imperial Road, men, women, and young. The roads are so long and there are so many people. Looking north, you can't see the head or the end.
A middle-aged man knelt beside the cold imperial road, his head kept knocking on the stone road, making a dull sound, like a mourning drum.
The old woman with silver gray hair was crying. Behind her, the family wiped tears several times, leaned forward, and looked anxiously towards the east...
Many ordinary people, with children's mouths, stood on both sides of the imperial road, looking at each other from time to time, their eyes full of confusion about the future, confusion, confusion about the emperor, and humiliation of being abandoned.
"Your Majesty, hundreds of thousands of people in Chengdu are willing to stand together and stay for the time being."
The middle-aged man was wearing a long robe, his forehead was bleeding, and he shouted loudly, hoping that the ochre-yellow carriage would stay for a while.
When the other scholars beside him saw him, they covered their faces with their sleeves, and their eyes were swollen.
"Brother Wu, forget it, the court and the emperor have decided, we can't persuade them back!" The friend on the side felt unbearable and persuaded him.
"I have seen the true face of Meng today." The man surnamed Wu lowered his head and gritted his teeth and said, "There are still tens of thousands of troops in Chengdu, as well as hundreds of thousands of people, the emperor and courtiers, who were scared away by just 40,000 Song troops. It is a great humiliation, and it can be said to be the biggest joke in the world."
The people next to him fell silent.
Even the common people knew that the entire Chengdu city had been abandoned by the emperor and they would be ravaged by the Song army.
But the Meng family has been well-behaved for decades, and many people still believe that the emperor will definitely come back and the current dilemma will definitely be solved.
They force themselves to write, and they force others to write.
The officials who stayed in Chengdu were prepared to surrender at the moment they were abandoned. As for defense, this was a mentally retarded choice.
The emperor has abandoned Chengdu, why are they still defending themselves?
Perhaps there are still people who are secretly happy that this is a rich asset to advance. Joining the Song Dynasty court, which is destined to unify the world, is unavailable.
"Your Majesty—" Mrs. Huarui and the emperor were riding in a wide carriage, and cries came from her ears, which made her feel a little at a loss.
"It's nothing, don't worry about him!" Meng Chang closed his eyes and rested, his body swaying left and right with the carriage. Today he was wearing a white robe, and he looked particularly simple without the luxury of the past.
Meng Chang, the emperor of Shu, left Chengdu, where success or failure, and the music of the past, but the song of the Sichuan people today was the tragic song of the Sichuan people.
Who can be ruthless if a person is not a plant or a tree?
The people followed Meng Chang's boat and followed a hundred miles all the way, and then they had to stop. The Shu Road was difficult to walk, so it was still far away to Kuizhou. Take your time.
In this trip, except for the officials who followed, a total of 100,000 people chose to go east instead of facing the vicious Song army.
Meng Chang left the cabin and stood on the board. Looking at the people in Shu who were following him, Meng Chang, who was forty-six years old, felt a little moved.
It seems that my ruling skills are still effective.
This was the first time he had come to his Dongda Gate after thirty years of being in the Tianfu.
But I saw that the two sides of the river were connected with mountains, with little no signs. The rocks and mountains covered the sun and hidden the sky.
The Shu Road is indeed the most difficult thing in the world.
After seven days of travel, I finally arrived in Kuizhou. Thousands of people flocked in, causing the city to suddenly expand.
A small town that is less than 10,000 people on weekdays suddenly accepted a huge population, and prices soared instantly, making the people suffer in a miserable way.
