I don’t know how much effort it will take to rebuild the Jianghuai theater and the imperial army just destroyed by the army.
The good army acted quickly, saying that it would retreat if it retreated, and it would take things away without dragging its feet at all.
On may 17, the last military fleet left Jiangnan with the last batch of military personnel and set foot on the land of Huainan East Road, thus ending the expedition to the south and the first war of the Song Dynasty.
Tang Si-tui and accompanying officials of the Southern Song Dynasty took the emperor’s imperial edict to the state capitals of Huainan East Road to reach the order of cession.
All officials and officials of the Southern Song Dynasty are allowed to leave Huainan East Road within a time limit, no matter whether the local people leave Huainan East Road or not.
Tang Si-tui feels strange about this.
Expulsions to cede territory are all caught by officials, and few officials are expelled, because most officials are local people, so it is quite inconvenient to leave their rule.
However, the Chinese side has paid attention to the fact that even officials will be expelled. I don’t know what it is, or do you have enough people to leave local posts?
Although strange, these things can’t be retired from Tang Si. He doesn’t care and doesn’t want to care about this kind of thing. Naturally, the army will be responsible for solving it. If you are willing to go or not, the army will be responsible for driving it away.
As the imperial edict of cession and the troops arrived in Huainan East Road, the state capitals gradually belonged to the administrative system of the state, and Chuzhou, Gaoyou Army, Taizhou, Tongzhou, Xuyi Army, Yangzhou, Chuzhou and Zhenzhou successively joined, without any accidents.
It is hard to say that there is any accident, which is probably that the defenders of Song Jun in Yangzhou City feel extremely painful and don’t understand in the face of the emperor’s imperial edict to cede territory.
"I still die positions so drop first? It’s not too late to wait until all the ministers are killed! ! ! !”
Since Liu Kun’s death, he has been insisting on Yangzhou’s non-surrender, and Wang Fang is so miserable that he can’t even get up.
To be honest, Wang Fang’s performance is still remarkable. Since Yangzhou City was surrounded by reverse, he has repeatedly led troops out of the city to harass and try to fill the Hegou City with sandbags and fill a way out, thus threatening the military logistics route.
However, the fierce fire of the army, the big rocket Raytheon cannon, was constantly fired and bombarded, and Song Jun was completely humiliated. Therefore, the Wang side could never succeed in facing the fierce fire of the army
Despite this, Wang Fang also repeatedly attacked the blockade of the army, playing late during the day and playing tricks on the army. After that, Ling Shi organized the army to make it work in two shifts day and night before regaining the initiative.
Yangzhou city grain seems to be surrounded by many troops for a month and a half. Yangzhou stands still, and there is no shortage of grain. Even if the main force of the army presses to attack, it is not so easy.
It is very important for Zhao Shen to cede territory.
Because of the special situation in Yangzhou city, it is enough for Tang Si-tui to ask Yangzhou defenders to give up their resistance with the imperial edict.
Wang Fang wept bitterly at Tang Si’s retreat, at the imperial edict to cede territory and at the emperor’s request.
"I have never let the army succeed in this day. Yangzhou stands still. Is it necessary to surrender now?"
It’s also hard to read about the soldiers and civilians in the city and stick to the hard work.
But he can’t change the overall situation, let alone destroy it.
"It’s a butler’s decision. Our ministers must abide by it. Otherwise, it’s irreverence and rebellion. Besides, what can you do if you lose a city without losing it? Can you turn the tide? "
Wang Fang knew that he could not turn the tide, but Liu Yong told him before he died that he still remembered clearly that Liu Yong said that he could not surrender or give up, and there was still room for redemption.
However, is there still room for recovery?
Obviously not.
The leffler looked at the dense army outside the city with a imperial edict to cede territory, and finally reached a retreat order and delivered Yangzhou City to the army.
Stick to the present and fight. Today, Song Jun soldiers are watching themselves struggle, opening the gates of the city and entering their hearts with their heads held high. They are full of pain, unwillingness and deep sadness. They all cry.
Even the able-bodied men who fought with Song Jun in the city shed tears because of such a scene.
Observing such a scene, I was deeply touched when I entered the city.
"Song Jun is not always afraid of death. If there is a king, there will be Liu Kun, Guo Yan, Li Xianzhong, Wu Chao, Yao Xingli and the waste army will stick to this day and never retreat. The British army can’t just regard the Southern Song Dynasty as a good enemy."
Zhou Zhixue gave his own opinion with Zhou’s side smell speech.
"I don’t think that no matter what the army of the Southern Song Dynasty does, it is impossible to compare with the construction of a large army, which is well-trained and high-spirited, and the biggest gap between the two countries is not in the army but in the court."
Chapter 715 The second directly under the Central Government
Zhou Zhixue obviously denied that the gap between the Empire and the Southern Song Dynasty was mainly military.
Military is a comprehensive national strength and mobilization, which embodies the fact that the South Song Dynasty’s war was so lame. Obviously, it is not just the army that has a problem.
I am very interested in this week and want Zhou Zhixue to talk more about it.
Then Zhou Zhixue can talk more about it.
"A court full of prostrations is under their control of logistics and promotion. How tough can the army be again? On the other hand, the army controlled by the grand court and the Renaissance Association will die first if it is not brave.
In the final analysis, the gap between the army and the court comes from the gap between the emperor and the main ruling officials. The emperor of the Southern Song Dynasty was Zhao Gou Zaifu or Tang Sidui. With such leaders, they could not fight again.
And the big army? The emperor is a hero who has experienced many battles and never lost. The main officials in the world are the old cadres who fought with him all the way. They are determined to act decisively and fight without dragging their feet. Is this comparable to the Southern Song Dynasty? "
Zhou listened to these words and thought silently for a while, then nodded slowly.
"What you said makes sense. What if the imperial court can’t compete with the enemy’s imperial army and dare to fight again? Nowadays, it’s not the troubled times at the end of the Tang Dynasty … But then again, the Southern Song Dynasty has changed the emperor. "
"Well, it depends on what the new emperor can do now."
Zhou Zhixue thought for a while and whispered, "But the new emperor has just signed an agreement and surrendered. The burden on the emperor is not generally heavy. I really don’t know if he can stand it and rise again."
"Better not. If he gets up, it’s us."
Zhou shook his head.
"not necessarily"
Zhou Zhixue said slowly, "The problem in the Southern Song Dynasty is not as simple as changing an emperor or a court. Even if he changed the court, can he change the local officials?" Can you clear away the local forces that hinder the Northern Expedition? Can’t get rid of those, and he can’t get up again. "
Zhou blinked.
"What do you mean?"
"Isn’t it obvious? The real drag force of the Southern Song Dynasty is not the emperor or a specific person, but an entire group of southerners. They don’t want the Northern Expedition, they don’t want to fight, they want to live a stable life. "
"What?"
"What? This court is funded by southerners, and officials are mainly from southerners, whether they are senior officials or grass-roots officials, or most of them are already southerners. They have great control now. If the Northern Expedition succeeds in restoring the Central Plains, should they give some of their power to northerners?
Together with my contribution to the Northern Expedition, I have to give my strength to the northerners themselves at the end. If I can’t get any benefits, I have to pay part of it out. They think that this kind of business is a loss of business. If I don’t want to do it, I will drag my feet. "
