Across the Water Margin: Officials of Ximen

Song Huizong is the bird emperor!What bird envoy did you send?If I can't cross the sea to go to the Kingdom of Jin smoothly, wouldn't I, the official Ximen, have to lose a lot of money?

Chapter 438 Set foot on the land of the Kingdom of Jin

Perhaps it was because the deputy envoy Zhao Liangsi prayed devoutly, God helped the Great Song Dynasty, and made Zhao Youkai seriously ill and critically ill by letting the one who regarded the Great Jin Kingdom as a vassal state go on the road with an imperial edict that insulted the Great Jin Kingdom up.Although Wang Shizhong, the magistrate of Dengzhou, invited a famous doctor from Dengzhou City, he was still helpless and failed to save Zhao Youkai.

Zhao Youkai, the official of the Great Song Dynasty, Zhimi Pavilion, was lucky to die before he was about to offend Wanyan Aguda, the Lord of Jin.

After Zhao Youkai's death, the deputy envoy Zhao Liangsi secretly rejoiced, and took over the diplomatic power of the Song Dynasty's envoys.Zhao Liangsi calculated that after the imperial court learned about the situation in Dengzhou, he would send him to the Kingdom of Jin.Although the imperial edict in his hand was still a problem, Zhao Liangsi was confident that he could win the trust of the king and ministers of the Dajin Kingdom with his three-inch tongue, and prompt the two countries to form an alliance to destroy the Liao Dynasty.

It's a pity that Zhao Liangsi's wishful thinking failed this time.Not long ago, the Song court received intelligence from Du Chong, the magistrate of Cangzhou, Hebei, saying that the Liao Kingdom had made peace with the Jin Kingdom, ceded the land of Liaodong, and made Wanyan Aguda, the leader of the Jurchen, the lord of the Donghuai Kingdom. , There are also rumors that the Jinren have also repaired with the Liao Kingdom.

Suddenly receiving such information, Song Huizong's monarchs and officials became suspicious, and became hesitant about the couplet.At this time, the fear of the Liao Kingdom once again gained the upper hand in the court.Emperor Huizong of Song Dynasty was worried that after Liao and Jin negotiated peace, the Liao Kingdom learned that the Song Dynasty had joined forces with the Jin Dynasty to attack Liao, and the army went south to attack the Song Dynasty.

The princes of the Song court were afraid of wolves before and tigers later. After several discussions, they finally adopted a safe strategy. Taking advantage of the incident that was causing Zhao Youkai to die of illness, they withdrew the delegation of envoys to Jin and let Zhao Liangsi lead the team. Return to Bianliang, Tokyo.

Because the envoys of the Kingdom of Jin were going back to the country, the imperial court only arranged for Hu Yanqing, the military commander of Dengzhou, Ma Zhengping, and the Navy Commander, to escort Li Shanqing, Sandu and Boda back to the Kingdom of Jin.

Because Ma Zheng was going to the Kingdom of Jin, Ma Kuo also decided to go to the Kingdom of Jin with his father to increase his knowledge.

Ximen Qing saw that the envoys of the Great Song Dynasty gave up halfway and went back home, so he was so happy that he didn't need to negotiate with the envoys of the imperial court.He directly expressed to Li Shanqing, Sandu, and Boda of the Kingdom of Jin that he wanted to go to the Kingdom of Jin with them and do business with the Kingdom of Dajin.

The three of Li Shanqing agreed to Ximenqing's request, and Sandu and Boda warmly invited Ximenqing to their home as guests.Therefore, Ximenqing quickly arranged for his men to ship the goods to the Shanghai ship, forming a small fleet, waiting to cross the sea with the envoys of the Kingdom of Jin.

Wang Shizhong, the magistrate of Dengzhou, chose a sunny and smooth day, and personally sent the three envoys of the Kingdom of Jin to the ship, accompanied by Ma Zheng and his son. A fleet of merchant ships set sail together, heading from south to north.

From the Dengzhou Coastal Road in the Great Song Dynasty to the north, passing through Shamen Island, and then to Suzhou at the southernmost tip of the Liaodong Peninsula in the Kingdom of Jin, the shortest distance is only more than 200 miles, and it can be reached in one day with a favorable wind.Ximenqing and others rode the wind and waves, crossed the Bohai Sea that day, and landed at Tieshan Port, the southernmost tip of Suzhou, the Kingdom of Jin.

At this time, there were no pirates at sea from Japan in Bohai Sea, but occasionally pirates from the backcountry of Koryo intercepted and robbed merchant ships.But after the rise of the Kingdom of Jin, Koryo pirates no longer dared to haunt the waters near Suzhou.In addition, there was a warship escorted by the Song Dynasty navy this time, so there were no ragged Koryo pirates on the Bohai Sea.

Everyone went ashore, and after Ximenqing finished unloading the cargo, the merchant ship returned with the warship of Da Songping's navy.With the help of Li Shanqing, Sandu, and Boda, Ximenqing and his party quickly formed a horse team on the pier, carrying the books and wine they brought, and escorted by the Jurchen patrol cavalry to the Go to Suzhou Guan in the north.

In the north of Tieshan Port Wharf, there is a land checkpoint called Suzhou Pass.

This Suzhou Pass was first built by Yelu Abaoji, the founding emperor of the Liao Kingdom. At that time, a section of the Great Wall was built on the Liaodong Peninsula along the shortest distance between the Yellow Sea and the Bohai Sea. It was about [-] miles long and the pass was named Zhendong. Guan or Hesi Hanguan, which means "fence" in the Khitan language, was later renamed Suzhou Guan due to its geographical location.

The two ends of the Fenghai Great Wall, from Tuchengzi in Suzhou Bay to Yandaozi in Dalian Bay, were built on the hills and protected by danger. At first, wooden fences were used to connect the walls.

After the Jurchens occupied this place, they built it with earth and rocks. In the middle of the pass wall, they built a tall pass city, built an outer urn city, and set piers on it. guarded and patrolled day and night.

The Jurchens set up a Hesi Hanmeng'an here, with 3000 troops stationed there, in order to prevent the Central Plains, Koryo, and Japanese merchant ships from approaching the ring-shaped coastline and estuary of Liaodong.Because at this time, the Great Liao Kingdom was still facing the Jin Kingdom across the Liao River, and the Jin Kingdom wanted to cut off the sea communication lines between the Liao Kingdom and other countries.

When Ximen Qing saw the heavily guarded Suzhou Pass from a distance, a question appeared in his mind. How did the "Golden Retriever" Duan Jing's guy get through the customs by fooling around and bring the "Zhaoye Jade Lion" horse out of the customs and cross the sea to the south?The chicken crowing dog thief really has his own special ability!

Because they traveled all the way with the envoys of the Kingdom of Jin, Ximenqing's caravan was not interrogated by the Jin army, but was received grandly by Hesi Hanmeng Anyuli, the guard stationed at Suzhou Pass.

Yu Li is a mature woman from Hosuguan Road, and she and Sandu are old friends.Although Yu Li's surname is not Wanyan, it is said that his ancestors are brothers with the ancestors of the Wanyan tribe, so he can be regarded as a distant relative of the Wanyan Aguda family.

After having a feast with Hesi Hanmeng'an Yuli, Ximenqing followed the envoys of the Kingdom of Jin to the north, passed through Fuzhou, and arrived at Huosuguan Road.Sandu's home is here, and after he kindly invited Ximen Qing and Jiao Ting to his home, he took Ximen Qing to pay a visit to Bo Jingou Room in the Hosu Pavilion.

Like Yu Li, Hook Shi's ancestor, A Gu Nai, was the elder brother of Han Pu, the first ancestor of the Wanyan Aguda family, and went his separate ways when Bohai Kingdom was destroyed by Khitan.Hook Shi's family is a powerful family in the Shunvzhen of Hesuguan. His grandfather, Ta Buye, served as a Taiwei in the Liao Kingdom.

Hook Shi's father, Hu Shimen, was good at Chinese, knew Khitan big and small characters, and was brave and good at fighting.When Wanyan Agu attacked Gao Yongchang in Bohai, which occupied Liaoyang, Tokyo, Hu Shimen led his troops to defect to the Jurchen of Wanyan tribe, and later performed military exploits.After the establishment of the Kingdom of Jin, Hu Shimen was sealed by Wanyan Agu as Bojin of the Seven Departments of Huosuguan.It's a pity that Hu Shimen passed away due to illness last year. After his death, he was donated to the General of the Prison Guard, and then the General of the Hussar Guard.

After the death of his father, Hook Room inherited his position as the Seventh Department Bojin of Hosoguan and became the supreme ruler of Hosuguan Road.

For these Jurchen aristocrats of the Jin Kingdom, the victors in history, the officials of Ximen Qing had a matchmaking bridge, and now they are naturally spending a lot of money, so let's buy them first!

Chapter 439 Let's drink a spoonful of wine together

Because they wanted to rush back to Shangjing to Ningcheng to report to the king, Wanyan Aguda, the envoys of the Kingdom of Jin took a rest on Huosuguan Road, and then embarked on the northbound road.Ximen Qing also led his team to follow the envoys of the Kingdom of Jin on the road.

Passing through Chengzhou on Dongdong Road, Liaoyang Mansion, Xianping Mansion, Hanzhou, and Longzhou on Shangjing Road. After meeting many generals of the Kingdom of Jin, Ximen Qing came to Ningjiang Prefecture with the envoys, where he met the famous generals of the Kingdom of Jin Complete Yan silver surgery can.

Five years ago, when the Jurchens led by Wanyan Aguda rebelled against the Liao Dynasty, the first battle was to capture Ningjiang Prefecture.Wanyan Aguda personally shot and killed Liao army general Yelu Xieshi, captured Ningjiang Prefecture, and won the first battle.

Wanyan Yinshu can be regarded as the clan son of the Wanyan family. During the Battle of Ningjiang Prefecture, he served as the general of the army together with Wanyan Loushi. The victory in the Battle of Liuhe laid the foundation for the founding of the Kingdom of Jin.

After the founding of Dajin, Wanyan Yinshu participated in the battle of Dagulu City and the Battle of Protecting Budang, and assisted Wanyan Aguda to defeat the main force of the Liao Kingdom in one fell swoop. The strategic initiative was lost, and Liao was forced to switch to defense.

In the battle of Dagulu City, facing the 20 elite Liao army, Wanyan Yinshu led the army to attack the most solid center army of the Liao army. He showed his bravery to the world.

During the decisive battle with the 70 troops led by Emperor Tianzuo of the Liao Kingdom at the Budapang, Wanyan Yinshu took advantage of the chaos and entered the middle army of Emperor Tianzuo, scaring Emperor Tianzuo and fleeing.

In short, Wanyan Yinshu is famous among the generals of the Kingdom of Jin for being good at breaking the front and breaking the edge, fighting bloody battles, and is deeply loved by the King of the Kingdom of Jin, Wanyan Aguda.Three years ago, Wanyan Aguda asked Wanyan Yinshu to guard Ningjiang Prefecture as a barrier to the southwest of Ningcheng in Shangjinghui.

After Ximen Qing heard many stories about Wanyan Yinshuke told by Sandu and Boda on the way, he also developed a strong interest in Wanyan Yinshuke, a fierce Jurchen general.

Because Ximen Qing still vaguely remembers that this Wanyan Yinshu can be regarded as a figure who can influence history among the Jurchens of the Kingdom of Jin.

In the historical Jin-Song War, it was Wanyan Yinshu who led his troops to surround Taiyuan City in Hedong, using the tactics of encirclement and reinforcements, to annihilate the Song army who came to rescue Taiyuan time and time again, and let the stupid Emperor Qinzong of Song Dynasty One or two million heads were sent to Hedong alone.

If I poison this Wanyan Yinshu to death in advance, I don't know if it can change history?Ximen Qing looked at the jars of fine wine on the carriage, and suddenly an interesting thought came to his mind.

Of course, Ximen Qing was just making a joke for himself.He would not risk his life to assassinate a Jurchen general.The life of a high official Ximen Qing is much more precious than the life of Wanyan Yinshu!

Don't say it's Wanyan silver technique, even if Wanyan Aguda exchanged Ximenqing's life for Ximenqing's life, the official Ximenqing wouldn't change it!

Because Ximen Qing knew that the rise of the Jurchen tribe at this time was the rise of a group, and there were too many brave Jurchen warriors.Without Jin Taizu Wanyan Aguda, and his younger brothers can continue to be emperors.The assassination of a Wanyan Yinshu Ke, and a bunch of famous generals such as Wanyan Zonghan, Wanyan Zongwang, Wanyan Loushi, etc., are still not something that the Great Song Bird Emperor Song Huizong, father and son, and his ministers can resist.

Furthermore, Ximenqing officials never had the consciousness to die heroically for Song Huizong and his son, and to perish with the enemy.

Ximen Qing felt that the "Cultural Aid" plan to donate knowledge and culture by himself was reliable.

People like Wanyan Yinshu are really too barbaric. After so many bloody battles, they can survive with their hands and feet intact. It's really unfair to God!

For this kind of barbarians, let them learn more about the culture of the Central Plains and civilize their spirit!Let them subtly learn to cherish their lives, and then learn to fight for power and profit.snort!My Han Chinese culture in the Central Plains is infinitely superior to poisoned wine, an invisible weapon that can kill people!

When he saw Wanyan Yinshuke's true face in Ningjiang Prefecture City, Ximen Qing understood why this guy was able to fight in and out of the Liao army without getting hurt.

Jiao Ting, who was walking with Ximen Qing, Sandu, Boda and others were all tall men with a height of eight feet, but when they stood with Wanyan Yinshuke, they seemed to be a lot thinner.

Wanyan Yinshu can be nine feet long, with a face like the bottom of a pot, a wide mouth on one side, and whiskers like steel needles.From Ximen Qing's point of view, he is about the same size as Jiang Menshen Jiang Zhong, but his body is thicker, like a King Kong standing there, with inexhaustible strange power on his body.

Such a person, wearing two or three layers of heavy armor, can advance and retreat like the wind. He is indeed a fierce general who is difficult to defeat.

Wanyan Yinshu is a person with a bold personality. He originally hosted a banquet for the envoys of the two countries. He did not expect that there would be a businessman like Ximen Qing accompanying him, but after hearing the introduction of Sandu and Boda Afterwards, he immediately warmly invited Ximen Qing and Jiao Ting to the table, and treated Ximen Qing very courteously.

At this time, the Dajin Kingdom was founded, the system was incomplete, and it was still in the state of a tribal alliance.The Jurchen generals are the leaders of the tribes, big and small, and the King of the Kingdom of Jin is equivalent to the leader of the tribal alliance.Therefore, among the Jurchen nobles, there is no strict concept of superiority and inferiority at all levels.

Ximen Qing had tens of thousands of household registrations and thousands of soldiers in the Great Song Dynasty. In Wanyan Yinshuke's eyes, this Ximen Qing was a tribal leader who could stand on an equal footing with him!

As for the fact that Ximen Qing didn't have an official position in the Song Dynasty, it didn't matter to the Jurchens who valued reality.An official position in the imperial court, what kind of thing is that?What our Jurchens value is the tribal bojin!

At the banquet, Wanyan Yinshu introduced his relatives to Ximen Qing, Jiao Ting, Ma Zheng, Ma Kuo and others, who were also his own generals.

Sitting to the left of Wanyan Yinshuke, who somewhat resembles him in appearance, is his son Wanyan Kuying, whose real name is Talan.

Wanyan Yuying has been vigilant, courageous and outstanding in martial arts since she was a child.When he first started playing, the lord of the country, Wanyan Aguda, was amazed when he saw him, thinking that he could become a great weapon.When Wanyan Gouying was sixteen years old, his father Wanyan Yinshuke gave him a battle armor and made him follow him to conquer Liao.Wanyan Guoying was often a vanguard in his father's army, made many military exploits, and was awarded the hereditary strategy.
