One day in 1256 AD, Zhang Jue, the deputy governor of the Xingrong Division of Diaoyu City, took two retinues, and the three of them rode over several mountain beams on Mount Huaying to an ancient village of Huangqiao and shouted to the guard post at the other end of the bridge.
It turned out that this ancient village was a cottage, and under the bridge was a deep ditch, and this bridge was the only way to enter this ancient village. The village is under a large mountain cliff, and the houses in the village are all made of stone masonry, and there are more than a dozen stone houses in the height.
Zhang Jue said in front of the Zhubi Bridge, please send a message to the owner of the Golden Dao Village, saying that his brother Zhang Jue came from Jinyun Mountain and had an important matter to meet the owner of the village.
At this time, Zhang Kun, the king of the Golden Dao Village, heard that there were officials coming here to visit, and Li wondered, where did the official Zhang family brothers come? But it is very strange, and the people who come to report that they are from Jinyun Mountain are a bit heady. Zhang Kun asked the sentry guard, how many people are coming? When he learned that there were only three people, he thought that this must not be a stubble, so he sent a message, please take the three people to Kangjiadong for inquiry.
According to the rules of the Jin family village, the three were blindfolded and taken to the Kangjia Cave. When he opened the black cloth belt covering his eyes, Zhang Jue saw that above the cave sat a big man in the shape of a biao, and the chair was supplemented by a tiger skin, and the man was holding a dagger in his hand and chewing on a piece of meat in his mouth.
Below the owner of the village were two rows of more than a dozen brave men armed with steel forks and knives, all of whom stared at Zhang Jue and the three of them expressionlessly.
Zhang Kun saw that Zhang Juekui was majestic and brave, not humble and unassuming, and secretly amazed in his heart.
Zhang Jue saluted with both hands, and Zhang Jue, the deputy governor of the Xingrong Division of Hezhou Diaoyu City, met with the Golden Dagger Zhai to advocate Kun.
Zhang Kun said for a while, Guest, you are an official, why do you want to come to the ravine of my wild and vulgar people to find fun?
Zhang Jue said that this small official has long admired the good han daimyo, and has come to be a lobbyist, making friends with righteousness, and recognizing his brother with affection. This ceremony is a meeting ceremony for Wang Jian of the Diaoyu City Xingrong Sidu, and the owner of the village is invited to smile and accept. Zhang Jue said, asking his entourage to hand over a statue of Guan Gongjin.
Zhang Kun couldn't help but laugh, ha, ha! Waving his hand to his subordinates to take over the ceremony, he said, I am a rough man in the wilderness, and I have nothing to do with your official family, why does the general want to recognize me as a brother? Are you also surnamed Zhang?
Zhang Jue said, yes, eight hundred years ago it was a family, right? The minor official's surname was Zhang, his name was Jue, and the character Junyu was now the deputy governor of The Xingrong Division of Diaoyu City in Hezhou, and was sent by Wang Jian of the capital, and entrusted by Feng Zhen of Jinyun Academy in Jinyun Mountain, and came here to visit his brother Zhang Kun?
After Zhang Jue finished speaking, he respectfully handed over two letters.
Zhang Kun said, please sit! I have a deep friendship with Feng Zhenzhi, but I don't know you inexplicable officials, Xingrong Sidu Wang Jian, and I don't have any friendships?
Zhang Jue said: It is true that we have nothing to do with each other, but the great enemy is present, and in the future, we can work together to protect the country and protect the border against Mongolia, and there will be one.
Zhang Kun said, I don't have such a big heart, and I don't want to associate with your official family. Just look at Feng Zhen's face, listen to you to nag a few more words. Where is the enemy of the present? You say, why do you want to hook up with my golden knife village?
Zhang Jue said: It seems that this official has looked up to the owner of the village, and even if the chaotic world is about to rise and a great enemy is coming, the owner of the village has never heard of it? Listening to Feng Zhen, the owner of the village is today's Haojie, and this official is envious of his name, and he really can't imagine that the owner of the village has such a narrow vision.
Zhang Kun said: Those of us who are settled in the wilderness of the mountains and forests have small capital and cannot withstand the toss, so we are afraid that the officials will look up to us and drag us mountain people into the chaotic world. To be honest, we don't want to wade through this muddy water of the government. Official, is the lord of this village afraid of disappointing you?
Zhang Jue said, "Lord, this remark has lost the hearts of the people. If a tiger suddenly encounters a tiger in the village, will the owner of the village and the men in the village shrink under the wall and let the tiger eat the children? If a strong thief enters your village, the owner of the village, you will let the strong thief bully your wife and children, kill your brother, rob you of your treasure, will you the owner of the village flee east and hide?
Zhang Kun said, "Official, this remark is pure nonsense, how can the lord of my hall and village allow foreign enemies to bully my old villagers?" My name of the golden knife is not blown out. Zhang Kun pulled out the golden knife on the case, grabbed a handful of hair and blew it on the blade, and the hair flew up.
Zhang Jue said, "Lord, your name does not live up to your name." At best, you can only keep you a small village. What I value is a good man who can keep the people on one side, the peace of the whole Huaying Mountain, the owner of the village, your name of the golden knife man is too much, and the void is also false!
Zhang Kun said angrily, The lord of this village read that you are a friend of Feng Zhen, a jinyun mountain person, and does not want to embarrass you, you are reprimanding me, you go!
Zhang Jue said, let's go! The three of them got up.
Zhang Jue couldn't help but sigh and said, It seems that the people on this side of Huaying Mountain are about to suffer a great disaster! Farewell, Lord! Zhang Jue bowed his hand and turned around and left.
Zhang Kun turned around and waved and said, No!
Suddenly, a Confucian student stood up and said, "The general is slow, where did the great calamity that the general said come from?"
Zhang Jue said, this brother, the great catastrophe came from the north, that is, the black Tatar army rumored in the world, they are about to go down the Jialing River and the Qu River, along the way bloodbath everywhere, the lives of millions of people in our Song people will be killed. Their homes will be reduced to rubble, and how many families will be destroyed and their wives and children will be scattered!
A few of the soldiers panicked and said, is it the barbarians coming? Zhang Kuncai felt that the situation outside the mountain was very serious. He immediately turned to anger and asked Zhang Jue, is the barbarian really coming?
Zhang Jue said, yes! They will come from Guang'an and Quxian County, and in just a few days, there will be a blood and light disaster here!
That Confucian Sheng rushed forward and pulled the owner of the village and said, "Lord, should you let the officials finish their words?" Where is this hospitality?
Zhang Jue said, thank you to this scholar, I had good intentions, this whole world, is the great Song River soil, I have to have a few more eyes, to tell the village lord, when the barbarians attack, do not be careless.
Confucian Sheng busied himself with playing rounds for the main village, saying, "Don't blame the officials, we mountain people talk like this." Zhang Kun turned around again and said, how much offense, how much offense! Zhang Kun kept losing money.
Zhang Jue: I also said that we were also meeting for the first time. When I came, Feng Zhen, a native of Jinyun Mountain, said that The lord of Zhang Zhai was arrogant and did not pay much attention to official courtesy, and told me not to see outside.
Zhang Kun said, Come, come, general, this Confucian is my village staff, surnamed An, Guang'an JunganXi (now Yongxing Town, Huaying City, Guang'an), is a disciple of Feng Zhen of Jinyun Mountain.
Zhang Jue was very surprised to hear it and asked, may I ask An aide, An Bing, An Ziwen who are you?
An's staff said that the general was referring to An Bing, and An Ziwen was my grandfather!
Zhang Jue stood up and gave a big salute to An's staff, saying that the juniors had paid tribute to the great Song anti-Jin hero, the descendant of Lu Guogong's public security.
Ann's staff said busily, the general's salute is too heavy, too heavy wow!
When Zhang Kun saw Zhang Jue perform such a big gift to An's staff, he was suddenly surprised and said, Who is An Bing?
Zhang Jue said, Staff An, didn't you mention it to the owner of the village?
Zhang Kun said, in this later life, he never mentioned An Bing to me? All I know is that he knows a lot of things, has a smart brain, and is cultured.
Zhang Jue said, Oh, it is no wonder that he, he is young and promising, and he should have made a career out of his own. Relying on the ancestors to make a name for himself is not a good man!
Zhang Kun said that the general did not lack to talk about the birth of his grandfather An Bing?
Zhang Jue said, to make a long story, I also heard Feng Zhen, a native of Jinyun Mountain, tell me. This An Bing is a great hero of the Shu people standing on top of the sky! A great general who can write and fight!
Zhang Kun beckoned everyone to say that the brothers had come to listen to General Zhang blow the Dragon Gate Array, and all the people had gathered around.
Zhang Jue said that An Bing (1148 ∽ 1221 December 4), Ziwen Ziwen, Jingran Shansuo, was a native of Guang'an Junganxi (now Yongxing Town, Huaying City, Guang'an). When he was young, he studied at Jinyun Academy in Jinyun Mountain and was a disciple of Feng Shixing (1100-1163), the head of the dynasty. In the fifth year of Chunxi (1178), Dengjinshi and his brother. He was first appointed as the chief bookkeeper of Dazhu County, and after his term of office expired, he entered the DPRK and stated fifteen points about the advantages and disadvantages of Shu land, and his remarks were practical.
Soon, An Bing's father was bereaved, and An Bing returned home to "Ding Worry". After the expiration of the term, he was summoned to work as an office worker for the Lizhou West Road Pacification Division. After serving as Qushui County, he was reassigned to Xinfanzhi County, and when he was killed by his mother, An Bing returned home again to "Ding You", and after the expiration of his tenure, he was appointed as The County of Xiaoxi County. Soon, An Bing served as the general judge of Longqing Province. At this time, Longqing Province suffered a flood, and An Bingyu informed the government to open a warehouse to help the people. After the flood, An Bing built water conservancy and dredged the ditch river, and there was no flooding in Longqing.
An Bing was also transferred by the imperial court to the Da'an Army, and when Da'an was in drought, An Bing used his own money to buy back tens of thousands of stone rice to help the people. When the court heard about it, he specially issued an edict to give him a first-class official.
Ann's staff said that I didn't even know about my grandfather.
Zhang Jue smiled and said, Maybe you are still young.
Zhang Kun couldn't help but be greatly interested, he urged Zhang Jue to continue to speak, and everyone listened to it.
Zhang Jue said that these are just some small stories of An Bing. An Bing really did several big things, but each one shocked the entire Great Song Dynasty. This officer will first tell the story of "killing Wu Xi".
Who is Wu Xi? It is said that this person should be a descendant of the great heroes of Wei Shu, and his father's name is Wu Lin, who is Wu Jiu's brother. Wu Jie and Wu Lin were the great heroes of the Great Song Wei Shu and had served as deputy envoys of the Sichuan system, and their brothers had defeated 100,000 Jin soldiers with 3,000 Song troops in the "Three Passes and Five Prefectures", making the Jin soldiers dare not enter Shukou for ten years.
However, after the death of Wu Jie, Wu Lin, as the deputy envoy of Sichuan Xuanfu, he secretly contacted the Jin people for his own selfish interests and betrayed several states in Shukou to obtain the title of "King of Shu" promised by the Jin people. Wu Xi also privately built a palace, placed hundreds of officials, declared himself a vassal to the Jin State, and openly rebelled against the Great Song.
At this critical moment, An Bing pretended to accept the gift of the false Shu king Wu Xifeng's Zhongfu and the envoy of the chancellor, and he secretly contacted the righteous soldiers and the Shukou Song officers, and designed to break into the pseudo-palace to declare the will on the pretext of falsely transmitting the "holy will", and killed Wu Xi while he was kneeling. If Wu Xi's rebellion succeeded, the Great Song would lose half of the country.
Zhang Jue said that An Bing's achievement shocked the imperial court. The Jin people said to An Bing that he who had received the head of An Bing and 20,000 horses of silk and silver would be given to Sichuan Xuanfu envoys.
Zhang Kun listened and couldn't help but clap his hands! The brave men of the Golden Dagger Village were all stunned. They asked, is there anything else?
Zhang Jue took the opportunity to act and said, This An Bing, do you think it is a big hero?
Zhang Kun said, of course it is yo!
Zhang Jue sighed while it was hot and said, Alas! I don't know if there is such a hero as An Bing in the crisis of Huaying Mountain, the crisis of Chongqing, and the crisis of the Great Song Dynasty!
Adjutant ann said, I think there will be! General Zhang did not know. During the Three Kingdoms period, Zhang Fei defended Langzhong and defeated the Wei general Zhang Jaw at Mengdao Mountain in Chuqu County. Our village owner is a person after Zhang Fei!
Zhang Jue hurriedly bowed his hand to salute, disrespectful, disrespectful!
Zhang Kun said, don't dare to tarnish the ancestral name, I am a village man.
Zhang Jue said, but none of you have ever encountered a strong enemy that is more fierce than the Jin people. You know what? Now we in the Great Song Dynasty encounter a strong enemy far greater than the Jin people, this strong enemy, we call the Black Tartars, the Mongols, we Song people call them The Mongols, the Barbarians.
Zhang Jue said that the Mongols were simply a bunch of vicious and inhuman races. They are naturally belligerent, and every time they conquer a city, a place and a village, they must slaughter the city and slaughter the village. According to them, it is called "subtracting" to kill!
My boy! Suddenly someone next to me began to cry, and then several people began to cry.
Zhang Kun said, General Hugh Wei, your words have evoked many painful memories for them.
An's staff said that the woman had escaped from Lizhou, and the man had escaped from Chengdu Province. A total of 40 or 50 of us in Jindaozhai came from Western Sichuan, Chuanzhong and Shukou.
Zhang Kun grabbed Zhang Jue's hand and said with shame, I was sorry for you just now, General!
Zhang Jue said, this is not to blame you, you are living in the mountains and barren forests, do not understand the situation outside, nor have you experienced a cruel, bloody battlefield. Zhang Jue comforted, maybe you didn't feel the suffocating atmosphere of the battlefield.
Zhang Kun suddenly said, How about the Feng Zhen brothers?
Zhang Jue said that he was already actively preparing for the war, and they had built several stone villages and set up several major passes, just in case.
Zhang Kun said excitedly, how can the eldest husband stand up, how can he be greedy and afraid of death, general, you say, how should I act?
Zhang Jue asked his entourage to take out a map and say, Now the Song army's defensive line is too long, this is the mountain city that my Great Song dynasty has built along the Jiangshan City for more than twenty years, this is only officially built. From Peng Daya to Yu Jiu, there are more than 80 mountain cities, plus the stone cottages built by the people, at least more than 300, but whether these mountain cities and cottages can withstand the barbarian soldiers is still difficult to say.
Zhang Kun said, is it useful to build so many mountain cities and cottages?
Zhang Jue said that after actual combat, the effect was still obvious, which could stop the Mongol army. Because the Mongol army was extremely good at the attack of long cavalry and artillery, as soon as the barbarian soldiers entered the river, their cavalry and artillery were weakened by 70%. Their purpose of going down the river was to capture Chongqing, so that they could go down the Yangtze River to capture Lin'an, the capital of our Great Song Dynasty. Therefore, most of the Song army was deployed along the Jiangshan City.
Zhang Kun said that if the barbarian soldiers were blocked, would they bypass Chongqing?
Zhang Jue said, Wang Jiandu and I are also worried about this matter? At present, Feng Zhen said that he could organize the villagers to set up customs and villages in the Jinyun Mountains and the Yunwu Mountains to prevent the barbarians from entering Chongqing from the mountain pass. But Feng Zhen was unable to organize more townspeople to intercept the Mongolian army at Huaying Mountain and bypass Chongqing.
Zhang Kun said that there are several ancient roads to bypass Chongqing along the river! The first one may be from Yufeng Mountain, Tieshan Ping, bypassing the mouth of Tongluo Gorge. The second could go directly from Liangping to Fuzhou, Zhongxian, and Wanzhou to attack Fuzhou. Or from Xuanhan into Kaizhou to attack Fuzhou.
Zhang Jue said, it seems that you are very familiar with this geography. Wang Jian and I also discussed the line you said. We estimate that if the barbarians take the route you estimate, there will be several major difficulties that they will find difficult to overcome. Because this has to cross several large mountain ranges, so that the march can only take the ancient road and trail, then the Heavy Equipment such as the Mongolian Army's water army and cavalry will lose a lot, but they really bypass chongqing, and it is difficult for them to cross the river to engage the Song Army. So all we need is for you to cooperate with the blockade or harass them to march, without too much entanglement with the Mongolian army.
Zhang Kun said, this line. I just want to make a request, we are the rural nomadic armed forces, we can only cooperate in combat, I do not want my people to be officially restrained and mobilized.
Zhang Jue said, "Okay, you should cooperate in combat, harass operations, or make enemy information reports at important passes."
Zhang Kun said, I Feng Kun do not dream of seeking promotion and getting rich, but the responsibility of protecting the border and the people is incumbent!
Zhang Jue said, good buddy! The people of the countryside hope to have a righteous soldier like you!
Zhang Kun said, Come, you brother, I recognize! Brothers come on the wine, we are drunk!
An's staff said, "Lord, while we are drinking, we ask General Zhang Jue to tell us about the history of the Great Song Dynasty, right?
Zhang Kun said, on the other hand, we stayed in the ravine and didn't know much about the situation outside. In particular, the understanding of the war in the Bashu River is mostly legendary, and it is not known whether it is true or false.
Zhang Jue said that our Great Song Dynasty was divided into the Northern Song Dynasty and the Southern Song Dynasty. The emperor who created the foundation of the Great Song Dynasty was called Zhao Kuangyin, and according to our official name, he was called Song Taizu. Before the Great Song Dynasty, it was the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period, and that era was very chaotic, with many small countries, fighting each other and fighting endlessly. The land of Bashu belonged to the Later Shu state, and the last emperor of the Later Shu state was called Meng Chang. Song Taizu was originally the envoy of the Later Zhou Jiedushi, the Emperor of the Later Zhou was young, and the Song Taizu was originally the envoy of the Song Prefecture Festival, he mutinied through Chen Qiao, he mutinied the Zhou Li Song, because the Song territory had a territory north of the Yellow River, so it was called the Northern Song Dynasty.
In the early years of the Northern Song Dynasty, through the use of troops by Song Taizu and Song Taizong, they basically unified the southern part of the Central Plains, but unfortunately did not recover the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun occupied by the Liao State. The Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, all within the Great Wall, the Northern Song Dynasty lost the barrier of the Great Wall, so the northern nomads, that is, the Liao state in the north, and later the Jin state, the Black Tartars often sent cavalry to harass the Northern Song. When the Northern Song Dynasty was founded, it was surrounded by the Western Xia, Liao and Jin States, Tubo, Dali and other countries. Our Sichuan is in the northwestern border area of the Great Song Dynasty, so our Sichuan will fight with the northern country from time to time.
Zhang Jue said that in the early days of the founding of the Northern Song Dynasty, sometimes they attacked each other and sometimes united. Most of the great wars of the Northern Song Dynasty were fought against the Liao State and the Western Xia. During the reign of Emperor Zhenzong of The Song Dynasty, the Liao State signed the "Alliance of The Great Song Dynasty" with the Great Song Dynasty, and the border of the Great Song Dynasty was peaceful for more than a hundred years, and at this time the Great Song State was strong and rich.
However, the Liao state was destroyed by the emerging Jin state, and the Jin state gradually became the heart of the Song Dynasty. Since then, the Song and Jin wars have continued, and after the Jin dynasty destroyed the Liao, Jin bordered the western side of the Song, that is, the land of Sichuan and Shaanxi was an important pass for the Jin soldiers to go south, and the Song people called Italic.
An's staff told Zhang Kun that it was the source of the Jialing River, including the valley mouths of Qinling, Daba Mountain, and Micang Mountain. It is also the source of the Canal River.
Zhang Jue said, Yes, the general of the Great Song Dynasty guarding shukou at this time was Wu Jiu, the Song army led by Wu Lin. Wu Jiu and Wu Lin defeated Jin Bing in Shu. Later, the Jin people changed the direction of attack, destroyed the Northern Song Dynasty, captured a large number of imperial families such as Emperor Huizong of Song and Emperor Qinzong and returned north, which is the famous "shame of Jingkang". There was a person in the imperial family of the Northern Song Dynasty who slipped through the net, and he ran to the south to form the Southern Song Dynasty, which was Emperor Gaozong of Song Zhao.
Zhang Jue said: The most famous general in the early years of the Southern Song Dynasty was Yue Fei, who organized the Yue family army and the army of the Song dynasty left behind in the north to fight back against the Jin army in the northern region, and won many great victories. However, the Song officials signed a peace treaty with the Jin people, which was a major mistake of the Song court. This is also one of the reasons why Feng Zhuangyuan was deposed because he opposed the peace talks and played "Please Divide the Troops to Town Jingxiang Shuo".
An's staff said that the Great Song Dynasty had made mistakes, and there were more than two or three mistakes. It is said that when the alliance was made, it was a good opportunity for the Song army to counterattack and regain the lost land. But Emperor Zhenzong of Song blindly sought peace. When my grandfather An Bing presided over Sichuan's envoy to Sichuan, he recovered the four prefectures that the traitor Wu Xi had dedicated to the Jin people in only a few months. When he heard that the Jin people were moving the capital, he set up the imperial court and was waiting for the Northern Expedition, but the Great Song court instead made peace with the Jin people, so my grandfather wrote a poem ridiculing the imperial court that "since ancient times and Rong have held power, they have not heard of prostrating their heads and settling the side."
Zhang Jue couldn't help but smile bitterly, and said that the rulers of the imperial court were short-sighted. Just when the Jin Kingdom and the Great Song Dynasty were repeatedly fighting, the nomads in the north of the Jin Kingdom rose up again, his name was Temujin, he was a Mongol, that is, the barbarian head that we ordinary people called. Temujin conquered numerous nomadic tribes by force and created a state called the Great Mongol State. The leader of the Great Mongol Empire was called the Great Khan, and this Temujin called himself Genghis Khan.
Zhang Jue said that this Genghis Khan was a genius strongman, he almost always used soldiers every year, he used force to conquer Western Xia, Western Liao, and also sent troops to the west to conquer the Hualamu Model Country. After Genghis Khan died of illness during his conquest of Western Xia, his third son, Kuotai, succeeded him as the Great Khan, and he followed Genghis Khan's will to "unite the Song Dynasty and destroy the Gold". The Great Song signed an alliance with the Mongols and jointly launched the War of Jin (1234 AD), and the Jin Kingdom fell.
Zhang Jue said that originally when the Jin State fell, the Mongolian army withdrew to the north, and according to the Song and Meng Peace Treaty, the Song State could recover a large amount of land occupied by the Jin State. But the Mengjun retorted that the Song people reneged on their promises and fought a great war with the Song army. The Song army had no choice but to retreat south. In 1235, the Mongol army and the Song army fought an all-out war on the border of thousands of miles. The Song court divided these thousands of miles of defensive line into three defensive areas, namely the Sichuan-Shaanxi Defense Area, the Jinghu Defense Area, and the Lianghuai Defense Area. Among the three defensive zones, the Sichuan-Shaanxi-Shukou battle was the most intense, and the losses were quite heavy. Fortunately, the Southern Song Dynasty appeared a big hero Meng Jue, he tried to turn the tide, he tried to defeat the Mongolian army. This saved the Great Song Dynasty, but the Mongolian army entered the river almost every year to kill.
Zhang Kun said: What is the combat strength of the Jin Army and the Mongolian Army?
Zhang Jue said that the Mongolian army was more fierce, and they almost adopted the three-light strategy, that is, every time the Mongolian army attacked a city, they would kill the people in the city, loot the property, and burn or destroy all the ground buildings. Since the Battle of Song and Mongolia (1235), at least two million people have been killed in Bashu!
Zhang Kun said angrily, Are the Song people willing to be killed?
Zhang Jue said, of course not, I still have capable people in the Great Song Dynasty, and there are more great heroes. Among them, Meng Jue, Cao Youwen, Yu Jiu, Du Gao, etc. are all famous anti-Mongolian celebrities!
Zhang Jue said that those in charge of Sichuan's military affairs were Peng Daya and Yu Jiu, and they vigorously advocated the construction of mountain cities and cottages.
An's staff said that as far as I knew, the "Three Passes and Five Prefectures" in Shukou had been destroyed, and The Mongols often attacked Sichuan. They have attacked Kuizhou many times, washed Chengdu in blood, and killed countless people!
Zhang Jue said, yes, most of the Mongolian troops went from Dasanguan, entered Chengdu through the outer water, and attacked Jiading (Leshan), Luzhou, Lower Chongqing, Vawanzhou, Fuzhou, and Kuizhou. However, most of the Water in the Inner Water of the Jialing River was blocked back by the Mongolian army, which was also the merit of Peng Daya and Yu Jiu in building a mountain city.
An's staff said that although there were many mountain cities in the Jialing River, it would not necessarily prevent the Mongols from going south. I have heard that zheng and gui ruyuan, the envoys of the Song army in Sichuan, as soon as they heard that the Mongolian army was coming, abandoned the Shukou Pass and led tens of thousands of Song to escape, so that the Shukou was broken and the people were killed. Such a Song Jun is really shameful! If such a court official is guarded, even the strongest mountain castle and cottage are useless.
Zhang Jue was shocked and said, Is there a lot of information about the original An staff?
An's staff said that there were many ordinary people fleeing in the Golden Dagger Village, and they would say it. I think that the Great Song Dynasty emphasized literature over military force, and mostly made corrupt officials and literati who were afraid of death rule, which was a great stain. Therefore, our village owners did not trust the Song officials very much.
Zhang Jue said that the Great Song Dynasty did have many greedy and fearful literati in power, but not every literati was useless. For example, Cao Youwen is a military general born into a soldier, and your grandfather An Bing is also a military general of the jinshi literati, this is not a question of literati and generals, but mainly whether there is a morality of "loyalty to the king and patriotism". Similarly, Feng Shixing, the leader of Jinyun Mountain, has patriotic feelings like this great literati.
An's staff said, "The village lord, General Zhang, I think that although Chongqing's layout along the Jiangshan City has been mostly completed, a large number of mountainous areas have not yet been demarcated.
Zhang Jue said, exactly, exactly! As an official, there is no financial and human resources to complete the layout of the defensive area in the mountainous area. Jinyun Mountain man Feng Zhen had considered this, so Feng Zhen thought of the Jinyun Mountains, the Yunwu Mountains, the Zhongliang Mountains, and the Bayue Mountains on the south bank of the Jialing River. He built three villages and a pass on Jinyun Mountain; he also built two passes and two villages on Yunwu Mountain; and there were also two villages in Zhongliang Mountain. In this way, when the Jialing River Small Three Gorges was blocked or the Mongolian army attacked Chongqing or Luzhou by land, he could lead the mountain people to intercept the Mongolian army, and Chongqing could also reinforce Diaoyu City.
It is the Huaying Mountains, the Tongluo Mountains, and the Mingyue Mountains that no one presides over the defense of this mountainous area, if Zhang Kunge can help the defense of this mountainous area, our official pressure will be reduced a lot, and it will also prevent the Mongolian army from bypassing Chongqing through this mountainous area.
Zhang Kun said, well! Leave this mountain to me!
Zhang Jue said happily, then please brother!
An's staff said that the most urgent task is to set up a pass on the mountain trail near Tongluo Gorge, so that the water army of the Mongolian army can be blocked from going south along the Yangtze River, and the mountain can also cut off the Mongolian army bypassing the Tongluo Gorge.
Zhang Kun said, agree! This pass can both hold the army and transmit warning signals.
Zhang Jue said, that's great! Then call the pass you built Zhang Guan, right? You can see if there is a temple on the mountain, and wherever there is a temple, you will have a big bell, and if there is a warning, you will ring the bell and ring the alarm!
