Rebirth: Overthrow Song Dynasty - Chapter 619

The spring of the eleventh year of Xuanwu has arrived!

In the spring of this year, Zhao Zhe led an army of one hundred thousand south and entered Annan!

The Chinese people are more interested in regaining Annan than in expelling the Mongols! After all, in the eyes of most Chinese people, Annan belongs to the former land, and the group of people in Annan are traitors of the Central Plains and must be eliminated! Moreover, Annan has a fixed territory and city, and it is much easier to attack Annan! In contrast, the Mongols on the grasslands have no fixed homes and live as nomads. It is extremely difficult to encircle and suppress the Mongols.

Zhao Zhe went south in February, and he went all the way. On March 15th, one hundred thousand Song troops came to Jiaozhou City!

Jiaozhou is the place of Hanoi of Vietnam in later generations. In the Qin and Han dynasties, it was the largest ruled area in China! In the earliest days, Jiaozhou’s governing office was located in the later Guangzhou. At the time of the Three Kingdoms in the Eastern Han Dynasty, Jiaozhou belonged to Wu State. Wu State divided Jiaozhou into Jiaozhou and Guangzhou, and Jiaozhou’s governing office was changed to Hanoi in later generations.

One hundred thousand Song troops surrounded this place, and they launched a fierce attack on Jiaozhou.

On the wall, the people of Annan are also fighting hard to resist!

Arrows are flying, shouting and killing!

It was late at night, and Song Jun’s attack still didn’t stop!

From March 15 to March 21, six days and six nights, the Annan soldiers on Jiaozhou city wall were almost dead, and Jiaozhou was finally broken! Countless Song troops poured into Jiaozhou City.

Zhao Zhe led tens of thousands of main forces toward the center of Jiaozhou City, where Annan’s so-called imperial palace was located.

At noon, the Song army surrounded the Annan Palace.

Half an hour later, the gate of Annan Palace opened, and a very beautiful woman walked out with a child in yellow clothes in her arms, and countless Minister Annan followed behind this woman.

This woman is the Queen Mother Annan, she is still less than twenty years old! That child is Li Yingzong, the historical Vietnamese Li Dynasty, but this Li Yingzong is now only a three-year-old baby. Now Annan is regent by the Queen Mother, and the woman is Li!

Li Shi knelt on the ground, tears on his face! Behind Li Shi, the ministers of Annan also looked sad, and countless ministers of Annan were crying. They all know that Annan is over! Beginning in the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, Annan became independent. In just two hundred years, Annan went through two dynasties. Now, this dynasty has come to an end! Before the Central Plains was unable to regain Annan, but the Central Plains never recognized Annan’s independence. Now the Central Plains is extremely powerful and finally perishes Annan.

Hearing the cry of his mother, Li Yingzong, who was only three years old, also started to cry.

“Come on, help the Queen Mother up!” Zhao Zhe said loudly.

At this moment, Zhao Zhe’s body was covered with dirt and blood, and his hair was messy to the extreme, but his face was filled with excitement.

Finally laid down Jiaozhou! The remaining Annan South is much weaker than the North!

That night, more than 3,000 Song troops escorted the Empress Dowager Annan, the emperor, and ministers to the north. These people will finally be sent to the city of Yanjing, while Zhao Zhe continued to lead the army south.

In mid-April, the entire Annan was regained, but there were still people resisting in many parts of Annan, and Zhao Zhe’s army was now distributed throughout Annan.

On April 21, Yu Yunwen came to Annan as the emperor’s special envoy. He met Zhao Zhe in the south of Jiaozhou.

They were both ministers from Guan Shan. When they were in Guan Shan, they had a relationship. When they met at this moment, smiles appeared on their faces.

“Master Yu, I have ordered people to collect the various documents from Annan’s court and hand them over to you at any time! Annan’s size is not lower than that of Goryeo, but the population is not as good as that of Goryeo. The population here is only one hundred and five. More than one hundred thousand.” Zhao Zhe smiled as the two headed towards the barracks ahead.

The area of ​​Annan in this era was much smaller than that of Vietnam in later generations, only the size of a province in the Central Plains! As for population, the population density of most places in this era is extremely low, and Annan is no exception.

“The State Council asked me to take charge of Annan’s political affairs and establish an official government in Annan! But before that, Annan still needs to implement military control! In the next six months, your army will stay in Annan!” Yu Yunwen said.

“The Annan people’s resistance is much more fierce than the Koreans! Although we have captured Annan, there is no peace everywhere! Many Annan people do not obey our rule.” Zhao Zhe said.

“Before I came here, the Government Affairs Council and the Military Ministry discussed Annan’s issue several times. If the resistance here is really fierce, we can move a large number of Annan’s population if necessary! Annan only has a population of more than 1.5 million people, and we can. Relocate half or more of the population to the north, and then 300,000 young people from the Production and Construction Corps will go south and enter Annan!” Yu Yunwen said.

“This…” Zhao Zhe’s face showed an unbelievable expression.

“I will carefully examine Annan’s situation, then make a decision, and report my opinion to your majesty and the government council, and then your majesty and the government council will respond as soon as possible! We have recovered Annan, and then we must make this a part of the Song , I can’t let this be split anymore! In the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, they will split, and they will split again in the future. Then we will carry out a thorough exchange of blood here, so that all the people here will become citizens loyal to your Majesty and Song Dynasty. Let this The culture, system, everything is the same as the Central Plains.” Yu Yunwen said.

“I understand!” Zhao Zhe nodded.

At this moment in remote Siberia, in the far north, a large group of wild people are running on the wasteland!

All of them were unshaven, and their clothes were unusually shabby, but they were holding refined swords and other weapons in their hands.

They ran extremely fast, the setting sun went down, a large swath of water faintly appeared in front of them, and surprise smiles appeared on everyone’s faces.

They ran faster, almost trying their best to move forward!

Finally, the boundless sea once again appeared in front of them. This group of “savages” couldn’t help but knelt down, and tears of excitement flowed from the eyes of many wild people.

“We have come to the beach again! Great! It has been half a year, and we finally came to the beach again!” The leader of the young man said with excitement.

This young man is no one else, but Wu Gong who separated from Wang Gui in July last year! And those people behind him are not savages, but Da Song’s navy soldiers!

“When we get to the beach, we can go back again! It’s just that none of our ships can be found!” said a human next to him.

All of them are in their twenties and are elites in the military.

“The ship is gone, we can rebuild it! In fact, if we go south along the land, we will definitely be able to return to our hometown too!” Wu Gong laughed.

“General, we have been wandering on this piece of land in the past six months. Although we have explored many places, we have not gained much! The place in front of us is extremely empty and rich in products, but it is too cold and not so much. Suitable for living! General, I want to go to the sea again, maybe I can find some big islands!” said a dusty young man next to him.

“I don’t know what else is on the east side of the sea? Last time we arrived at Kuye Island, we should actually continue to the east!” Wu Gongshen agreed.

Wu Gong stood by the sea and looked into the distance. Although it was April, it was still very cold here! They have been walking for more than half a year, and they have also made maps, but the maps are also very crude. After all, they are soldiers, not specialized cartographers!

“General, let’s go into the sea and take a look again!” a soldier laughed.

“Okay!” Wu Gong thought for a long time before suddenly speaking.

He is a person who loves adventure by nature. In his opinion, the experience of the past six months is much more interesting than the experience of many years in Guanshan and Central Plains! He even feels that glory and wealth are not as good as adventure!

“Let’s make a few small boats, and then go forward into the sea! We are all navy soldiers. We have lived on the sea for so long, even if it is a small boat, we can move forward!” Wu Gong laughed.

The soldiers nearby also laughed together.

“But we have been missing for so long. The Navy Department will definitely look for us. We have to send people back to report to the Department! Also, we have killed many tigers and big bears in the past six months. These white tiger skins and white bear skins are the most It is complete, it is a gift to your majesty, and we will send it back together! We also need to tell your majesty that we have discovered the endless rivers and mountains in the north!” Wu Gongdao.

The soldiers around nodded their heads, and everyone had excited expressions on their faces.

They are all young men in their twenties who are interested in adventure. Now that Wu Gong decides to continue going east into the sea, everyone is naturally excited.

In the morning of the second day, they began to make ships. Ten days later, more than two thousand soldiers headed eastward one after another, and only a hundred people headed southward, preparing to tell the navy department of the news.

Wu Gong set off in the morning and arrived at a small island at noon. There is a strange bird on this island. These birds are very large, with very short wings, and their bodies are black and white! Wu Gong drew the bird on a diary, and along the way, he recorded the diary almost every day. He felt that he could show it to relatives and friends after he returned. This is also a rare and precious memory.

In fact, this bird is the Arctic penguin! In later generations, this large Arctic penguin has long been extinct, and now this bird is still all over the Arctic.

In the afternoon, they continued to set off, and there was a cold wind blowing in the north late at night!

Early the next morning, they actually saw the glacier on the sea, and the soldiers stood on the boat and cheered together.

At noon that day, the ship docked again. Wu Gong thought he was on another big island, but he didn’t know that this was where the next North American continent was located! They crossed the Bering Strait, which was only 80 kilometers wide, and came from the Asian continent to the North American continent, which was formerly Alaska.
