Chapter 247 Yue Fei
Chapter 247 Yue Fei
After a long silence, Changsun Wuji asked slowly again: "What is the purpose of our journey this time? To save the Northern Song Dynasty?"
His voice echoed in the silent space, as if carrying endless confusion and thought.
Li Chengqian nodded slightly, with a gleam of approval in his eyes.
"That's a good question. Do you think this time travel is to save the Northern Song Dynasty?"
His words were like a stone thrown into a calm lake, causing ripples.
This……
Everyone looked at each other and fell into deep thought again.
There was confusion and doubt in their eyes, and thoughts were churning in their minds.
They all probably knew the incompetence and weakness of the imperial court during the Song Dynasty.
Even if they can repel the Jin soldiers and save Bianjing during this time travel, what will happen next?
After all, they can only stay for three days, but what can change in three days?
The Jin soldiers retreated temporarily, but they could definitely make a comeback.
By then, all they had done was just to delay the demise of the Northern Song Dynasty.
So what is the meaning of their traveling here?
This question is like a heavy yoke, weighing on everyone's heart, making them fall into deep thought...
"Then kill the two emperors Qin and Hui, and support a capable new emperor to take the throne. That should be fine, right?"
Cheng Yaojin's heroic voice sounded like thunder, and he spoke carelessly.
Although his idea was naive, it was supported by Hou Junji, Yuchi Gong and others.
But can this really solve the problem?
Li Chengqian's deep gaze slowly turned to Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling, Li Jing and others.
"What do you think?"
They looked at each other again, their eyes filled with complicated emotions.
They know that this will not solve the fundamental problem.
The problem with the Song Dynasty was that it emphasized civil affairs over military affairs. This system resulted in a low status for military generals and made it difficult for the military force to be fully developed.
The reason lies in the lax military preparations, the lack of strict training in the army, the filled army with so-called "thieves", and the low status of soldiers.
The reason is that there is no pasture for raising horses, so it is impossible to form a strong cavalry unit.
In...
Too many institutional problems acted like heavy shackles, binding the Song Dynasty's hands and feet.
Can the problem be changed by replacing a capable emperor?
Li Shimin also fell into deep thought. He frowned slightly, but he couldn't think of any good solution.
This great emperor also felt deeply helpless when faced with this thorny problem.
The entire space seemed to be shrouded in a heavy atmosphere, and everyone was thinking hard, trying to find a way to save the Song Dynasty.
After a long time, everyone's eyes turned to Li Chengqian again, their eyes full of expectation, hoping that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince could give them an answer.
But Li Chengqian shook his head regretfully: "What a pity, there is nothing I can do?"
There was a hint of helplessness and regret in his voice.
"The Song Dynasty was already inherently deficient from the beginning. Without the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun and the natural defense line of Yanshan, the Central Plains was constantly threatened by the grassland peoples."
Li Chengqian's words flowed slowly, like a heavy bell echoing in everyone's hearts.
"So, the Song Dynasty is doomed. Even though the Southern Song Dynasty lived in exile in the south of the Yangtze River after the Jingkang Incident and lasted for more than a hundred years, so what?"
Li Chengqian sighed slightly, "That would only make China endure more than a hundred years of humiliation."
"If we want to change this situation, we have to start over, break everything and start over, and retake the Yanshan defense line of the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun."
Li Chengqian's words were firm and powerful, as if he was describing a grand blueprint.
Li Shimin was puzzled: "But we only have three days, how can we change the dynasty and recapture the Yanshan defense line?"
Li Chengqian nodded: "Yes, we don't have enough time, but we can find someone who can complete this series of tasks."
Li Jing was shocked: "Your Highness is talking about Yue Fei!"
Yue Fei!!
Everyone was shocked again, as if their hearts were hit hard by a huge rock.
The famous anti-Jin general who was recalled by the Eighteen Gold Medals and died unjustly in Fengbo Pavilion, a national hero!
When people thought of Yue Fei, they were filled with respect.
It is a kind of respect that comes from the bottom of my heart, a feeling of admiration for the hero that arises spontaneously.
Although they only knew some of Yue Fei's deeds, this did not prevent everyone from respecting Yue Fei.
In their impression, Yue Fei must be a loyal, brave and fearless general who led the Yue Family Army to fight bravely on the battlefield and was willing to pay any price to defend the country and protect the people.
His loyalty, his bravery, his perseverance, and his deeds, like bright stars, illuminated the sky at the end of the Northern Song Dynasty and inspired future generations to keep moving forward.
Li Shimin was again suspicious and asked, "You mean to support Yue Fei to change the dynasty?"
Li Chengqian shook his head again: "With Yue Fei's loyal and brave character, he would never do such a treasonous thing."
"So what do you mean?" Li Shimin was a little anxious.
Li Chengqian continued, "Although Yue Fei will not listen to us if the dynasty changes, we can persuade him to stay in the north to fight against the Jin Dynasty instead of following Zhao Gou's will and avoid his own unjust death."
"As for who sits on the throne in the end, I don't care. What I care about is the safety of the people in the north, and taking back the lost land and Yanshan!"
Zhang Sun Wuji understood: "Your Highness means to follow orders and not orders, respect Zhao Gou as the leader, and let Yue Fei develop a base in the north!?"
Li Chengqian once again looked at Zhangsun Wuji with admiration. This swing man was really amazing and he hit the key point right away.
"That's right, but it's not that simple. You can imagine that Yue Fei wanted to "go straight to Huanglongfu and drink with you all" and continued to march north. But was it really as simple as he thought?"
Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling and others fell into deep thought again.
They thought of the key point: they were alone in the deep, without supplies or follow-up reinforcements.
Even if Yue Fei is very powerful, he will not be able to continue.
Li Chengqian gave an explanation and said slowly...
"In fact, at that time Yue Fei did not realize that he had already gone deep into the enemy camp alone and was in a dangerous situation."
"At that time, the main force of the Jin army took the initiative to break contact with Zhang Jun and Wang De's troops, intending to encircle and annihilate Yue Fei."
"That's why Zhao Gou urgently ordered Yue Fei to withdraw his troops. Besides, Han Shizhong and Zhang Jun, their troops had already withdrawn. In addition, Han and Zhang have always disliked Yue Fei. Even if Zhao Gou ordered support, they would probably find excuses to shirk their responsibilities."
"What's more, Zhao Gou would not risk the failure of cooperation and the collapse of the entire line by asking them to cooperate in the war."
"I believe you all understand that if Yue Fei had chosen to disobey the order, he would have died, and he would have died even faster..."
