Chapter 64 Section 4 Strange Edict

In October 1161, Wan Yanliang ignored the opposition of the whole country and ordered 600,000 cavalry to march south, officially launching a war against the Southern Song Dynasty.And Wan Yanliang personally led the main force of the East Road Army, which was invincible all the way, crossing the Huai River, killing all the way to the bank of the Yangtze River, and approaching Lin'an, the capital of the Southern Song Dynasty.However, at the critical moment when Song Dynasty was about to be wiped out in one fell swoop, Wan Yanliang suddenly received a strange edict. What's going on?Who will issue the imperial edict to the emperor of the Kingdom of Jin?

When Wan Yanliang was stationing troops by the river, news came that a new emperor had ascended the throne in Tokyo and asked him to receive the imperial edict.Wan Yanliang is stupid, the imperial edict?I didn't issue an edict?Who issued the edict to me?The answer is that there is a new emperor in Tokyo, and you are no longer the emperor, but have been demoted to the common people.The edict of the new emperor has arrived, let you accept it.Wan Yanliang was very surprised, who is this new emperor?It is King Ge Wanyanyong, this is Jin Shizong, the fifth emperor of the Jin Kingdom. The news of Jin Shizong's accession to the throne in Tokyo came, and the Jin soldiers who went south were panicked.After Wan Yanliang heard about it, he still ordered the army to cross the river, but was defeated by Yu Yunwen, a member of the Song Dynasty Zhongshushe, in the battle of Caishiji.After the defeat of the Jin army, Wan Yanliang was still ruthless.In view of the fact that Emperor Sejong had already ascended the throne in the north, Wan Yanliang was eager to destroy the weak Song Dynasty, and then sent his troops to a decisive battle with Sejong, so he ordered the Jin army to cross the river the next day.However, the Jin army going south could not defeat the Song Dynasty army and could not cross the river.So the generals in Wanyan Liang's army discussed together, we might as well kill the faint emperor and return to the new emperor, so as to save our lives and keep our salary.So this group of people united to kill Wan Yanliang.

It is said that when the rebels attacked Wan Yanliang's camp, they shot arrows into the tent first, and shot it in. Wan Yanliang picked it up and saw that it was an arrow from our army, not from the Song army. If it broke, someone rebelled.The guard hurriedly persuaded Wanyan Liang to hide.At this moment, Wan Yanliang was somewhat heroic, and he drew his sword to fight.As soon as Wan Yanliang opened the curtain, an arrow flew into his chest, and he fell down immediately.The rebels went up and hacked.Wan Yanliang's body was relatively strong, and he survived several cuts, so the rebel leader took off his belt and strangled Wan Yanliang to death.
