After Li Bingchang and Li Chahan joined forces, they quickly defeated Li Xian's 100,000 army, most of the Song army was annihilated or captured by the Xia army, only Li Xian's new 10,000 Song army cavalry ran away, which is also no way The Song army cavalry has not participated in the battle, and Li Bingchang and Li Chahan's army are all long-distance attacks, and a large-scale battle has already been at the end of the crossbow, and there is no ability to pursue the Song army cavalry.
Besides, Gao Wei led the army to board the ship from the mouth of the Liao River, Gao Wei led 50,000 Anton Army and Boliao Coalition Army to drift on the vast sea for six days, the fleet finally saw the land, these six days are really worse than death for the Anton Army and Gao Wei Everyone vomited darkly, even the war horses began to vomit.
"Your Excellency, you can see the land ahead," Xiao Jinghuan said as he ran to Gao Wei's cabin in high spirits.
Gao Wei said with a hideous face: "Order, after the fleet docks, the army will camp on the spot and rest for a day." ” "Yes, the last general commands."
Xiao Jinghuan answered.
Hundreds of ships docked will naturally cause a great sensation, many villagers living not far from the sea have come to watch, when they see a group of soldiers coming down from the boat, these people immediately scattered, the coalition landing is very smooth, 50,000 troops took two hours to land on land, this process did not suffer any attack, the first thing after the Xia army landed was to set up camp, and sent sentry horses to the camp fifty miles away, after the camp was settled, the supplies with the ship began to move to the camp one after another, This is the living guarantee of the coalition forces in the Great Song Dynasty in the recent period.
Three days have passed in a flash, and the coalition army has not moved at all, not because Gao Wei does not want to move, but because the soldiers of the coalition army have not recovered, so they can only wait here; In three days, the news of the landing of the Xia army on the coast had already reached the Great Song Dynasty, and at the same time, Guanzhong fell, and the news of the disappearance of Song Shenzong also spread to the Great Song Dynasty.
The Great Song Dynasty Bianjing Imperial Palace.
In the Funing Palace, the Empress Dowager Gao sat on the main seat, the King of Chang sat aside, and the ministers stood below; Empress Dowager Gao asked everyone: "Ladies and gentlemen, now that the Xia army is attacking, Guanzhong has been lost, and the Xia army has landed in Binzhou, and now Your Majesty is nowhere to be found, how do you think my Great Song should deal with it?"
"Empress Dowager, the country can't be without a monarch for a day, Weichen thinks that now His Majesty doesn't know whether he is alive or dead, he should first set up a new monarch to stabilize the situation, and then negotiate peace with the Great Xia Empire."
"Seconded by the Minister" "Seconded by the Minister" "The minister also seconded the proposal" "Weichen thinks that Zhao Hao, the king of Chang, is wise and martial, and should be established as the new king" "Ministers, please King Lichang" These ministers present have basically been bought by Zhao Hao, the king of Chang, and naturally want to say good things for the king of Chang, and to establish a new monarch is naturally to establish the son of the Empress Dowager Gao, who has four sons in her life, except for one who died early, the remaining three are Zhao Hao of Song Shenzong, Zhao Hao of Changwang and Zhao Yu of Cao; Cao Wang Zhao Yan is the youngest son of the Empress Dowager Gao, and he is also his favorite son, it is precisely because of this that compared with Zhao Hao, Zhao Yan is not favored in front of Song Shenzong, Zhao Zhen is also a smart person, and he knows this very well, and he is usually relatively low-key.
"This king is opposed" A voice came in from outside, and the person who came was none other than the youngest son of the Empress Dowager Gao, the fourth brother of Song Shenzong, Cao Wang Zhao Yan.
"Sons and daughters, see the queen mother."
"Look, get up, sit down."
"Thank you, Mother."
After Zhao Yan sat down, he continued to say to the Empress Dowager Gao; "The queen mother, now that His Majesty is missing and I don't know whether he is alive or dead, the sons think that the top priority should be to find His Majesty first, and then negotiate peace with Xia Jun, before finding His Majesty, there should be a queen mother to listen to the government for the time being, even if you can't find Your Majesty in the future, you should be elected as the prince among your Majesty's princes."
Zhao Chen's words are equivalent to completely blocking Zhao Hao, so that the Empress Dowager Gao will listen to the government, even if Zhao Hao is capable, he will not dare to grab power with the Empress Dowager Gao, and as soon as Zhao Hao's words came out, all the ministers turned their words and all seconded Zhao Hao's words, no matter how awesome your King Chang is, he is only a king, and now that the emperor is missing, the power of the empire naturally falls into the hands of the Empress Dowager Gao.
"Since all the secretaries have said so, the mourning family can only temporarily take charge of the government; The first step should be to find His Majesty first, the second part to block the offensive of the Xia army, and then negotiate peace with it, who is willing to lead the troops" Empress Dowager Gao asked everyone; In fact, the Empress Dowager Gao also has her own selfishness, the disappearance of Song Shenzong Empress Dowager Gao naturally hopes that Zhao Yan can ascend the throne, but the ministers supported Zhao Hao before, and the Empress Dowager Gao naturally can't refuse sternly, and now she has the power to find the emperor, if you can't find it, you can find a reason to let Cao Wang Zhao Yan ascend the throne.
"After the mother, the son of the minister nominated one."
Zhao Yan said.
"Who is it?"
"General Seed Division, Seed General Young Army, when the Liao State invaded my Great Song Dynasty, General Seed and General Wang Shao guarded the Yellow River of the country, this expedition to Xia General is also the commander of an army, when the battle in Xiping Mansion was lost, if it were not for the general to turn the tide in the end, I am afraid that my front-line army would have been defeated."
Zhao Yan said.
"Where is the way of the planter now?"
"Because of offending the king's privy envoy's military authority, he is now being imprisoned in the prison."
"Report, report, report to the Queen Mother, and the Northern Front is urgent."
One of the chamberlains brought up a secret message and said.
After reading the secret report, Empress Dowager Gao was in a trance for a while, and almost didn't faint; Zhao Hao hurriedly asked the Empress Dowager Gao: "What happened to the Queen Mother?"
"The Northern Expedition army was defeated, and Li Xian led 10,000 remnants of the army to retreat to Yanmen Pass."
Empress Dowager Gao said with a melancholy face.
"Queen Mother, now you should release the general first, maybe the general has a way to deal with it."
Zhao Yan said to the Empress Dowager Gao.
"You'er, you personally go and invite the general here, and the mourning family will use it for another important purpose."
"Yes, the retainers are commanded" The Xia army drove straight in, the border towns were lost one after another, the entire Great Song Dynasty was already panicked, the Xia army was about to come to the city, and the entire Great Song Dynasty was already in danger of dying, and all this was not known in the Heavenly Prison Seed Master Dao In the opinion of the Seed Master Dao, even if the Song army was defeated, the Great Xia Empire would not be any better, and it was not able to attack the Great Song Dynasty at all.
When the Seed Master Dao got all the battle reports from the mouth of King Cao Zhao Yan, the Seed Master Dao understood the seriousness of the matter, and on the way to the palace, the Seed Master Dao had been thinking about how to deal with the enemy; The most important thing now is to stop the offensive of the Xia army, otherwise everything else is nonsense; Now that this situation is that the Great Song Dynasty is quite passive, and the troops that can be mobilized are insufficient, and it is impossible to compete with the Xia army at all, and it can only be taken by surprise if it wants to stabilize the war situation.
At the same time, after three days of rest, the coalition army finally recovered, Gao Wei led the coalition cavalry to begin to advance southward, although the coalition army was not much only more than 50,000 people, but in the territory of the Great Song Dynasty such as into a no-man's land, the Song City was basically opened and surrendered, and Gao Wei had no time to take over these cities, and there was no waste of troops to garrison these cities.
