    Pan Mei was shocked as soon as he received the message, and to his helplessness, Cao Bin clearly suspended the offensive alliance, which meant that Zhao Kuangyi captured Kaifeng Mansion, and Cao Bin would not march into the pass again.  Cao Bin's breach of contract left Pan Mei in a wait-and-see situation. Lu Tianfeng was able to destroy the Yan Kingdom, which had a great impact on people's hearts. The leader could not help but feel timid. Facts speak louder than words. Lu Tianfeng was cunning and good at fighting, as well as the territory he owned.  Military power has already made Cao Bin and Pan Mei deeply fearful, and the balance in their hearts is leaning towards being loyal ministers.  Zhao Kuangyi and many generals of the Zhao army stationed in the south of Kaifeng City soon reported a great victory in the north. After hearing the news that Lu Tianfeng had destroyed the Yan Kingdom, Zhao Kuangyi felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave, his expression was astonished, and then his face turned pale.  After sitting in silence for a long time, Zhao Kuangyi came to his senses and immediately discussed countermeasures with his staff. Some of the staff advocated attacking Kaifeng Mansion immediately, while others advocated sending people to unite with Zhang Yongde immediately, but Cheng Dexuan advocated asking Zhao Kuangyin to come over and take charge of the overall situation. In the end,  It is easy to proclaim oneself emperor. Only by proclaiming oneself emperor can one stabilize people's hearts.  Zhao Kuangyi adopted three major suggestions. The first was to unite people with Zhang Yongde. The second was to invite his brother to proclaim himself emperor and take charge of the overall situation. The third was to surround Kaifeng Mansion and start an attack. So on the day after the Zhou Emperor worshiped heaven, Zhao Kuangyi's army surrounded Kaifeng Mansion.  , began to siege the city.  Unexpectedly, the siege of the city was met with tenacious defense, and the internal forces in Kaifeng Mansion did not launch a rebellion. What shocked Zhao Kuangyi even more was that when the army attacked the city, more than 50,000 peripheral troops escaped. The large-scale military strength  Zhao Kuangyi ran away, and Zhao Kuangyi was so frightened that he stopped his troops and continued to attack the city, so that the army returned to its original position.  At this time, Zhao Kuangyi fully realized that something was wrong. The separation of military morale was the most terrifying crisis. If the military morale abandoned him, he would surely be destroyed. In panic, he could only use his trusted troops to monitor other military forces. Only then did he realize that  , his control of the military spirit is very superficial, which means that the military spirit lacks respect for him.  Half a month later, Lu Qi's army stationed in Dezhou did not move, Zhang Yongde occupied Daming Mansion and did not move, Cao Bin and Pan Mei also guarded Luoyang and did not move, but Cao Bin wrote a letter to King Qin, and Emperor Zhou responded by continuing to defend Luoyang.  , Cao Bin was not allowed to send troops to Kaifeng Mansion.  However, the 150,000 troops in the pass arrived in Taiyuan and were stationed. Outside Yanmen Pass, Yang Ye, Duke of Ding, had just taken over the 100,000 troops and fought a battle with the Liao army in Yunzhou. He owned Fuzhou, Daizhou and part of the victory  The Zhe family of Zhouzhou Grassland promptly sent troops to fight with the Liao army together with Yang Ye.  And Yang Yanzhao, who was responsible for the defense of Youzhou, also flexibly supported the war in Yunzhou with the support of Song Laoqing. Emperor Zhou had already granted Yang Yanzhao the title of Marquis of Zhenbei, General of Zuotunwei, and Deputy Remainer of Youzhou.  However, the information about the war in the north has not yet reached Lu Qi. Lu Qi also told him that the defense military does not need to ask him for instructions. Everything is left to Yang Ye, Yang Yanzhao and Song Laoqing. However, the power of appointment and dismissal of senior generals has not been given, and supplies  Song Laoqing was responsible for the war and rewards. Among the various armies, there were military recorders and criminal officers sent by Song Laoqing, who were responsible for military discipline, recording merits and supplies. Yang Ye and Yang Yanzhao's father and son only had command rights.  In half a month, Zhao Kuangyin hurriedly crossed the river from Jiangning to Songzhou. The situation in Jiangbei was beyond his expectation, especially the news that Lu Tianfeng had destroyed the Yan Kingdom. After careful consideration, he decided to abandon Runzhou and fight with the generals.  Food was transported to the Jianghuai River and troops were gathered to launch a large-scale war.  So when Zhao Kuangyin arrived in Songzhou, Runzhou was already in a state of mourning. Zhao Kuangyin's army, which had never invaded in autumn, bared its fangs and plundered Runzhou's grain, property, young men, and beautiful women like a pack of wolves.  The changes in Runzhou were soon known to the Jin army. Wang Wenhe immediately ordered an attack on Runzhou. Various Jin armies outside Runzhou went out to fight on a large scale, but Zhao Kuangyin's army was well prepared and actually built a boat on the river.  After getting to the pontoon bridge and looting.  In time, the army retreated to the north of the Yangtze River. When the Jin army's warships attacked, they only captured a large number of women and strong men. That was because Zhao Kuangyin's army was unable to transport them across the river and had to give up.  After Zhao Kuangyin arrived in Songzhou, after discussing with his subordinates, he proclaimed himself emperor in Songzhou Huangpao. Because Zhao Kuangyin was the military governor of Songzhou returned to Germany, the country was called the Great Song Dynasty, and Songzhou was renamed Yingtianfu.  After Zhao Kuangyin became emperor, he did not immediately attack Kaifeng Mansion, but implemented a large-scale army reorganization and the establishment of a court system. Five days later, Zhang Yongde accepted Zhao Kuangyin's conferment and became the King of Qi in the Song Dynasty, while Lu Qi and Emperor Zhou were  He never took the initiative to quell the rebellion and allowed Zhao Kuangyin to proclaim himself emperor and Zhang Yongde to unite.  Lu Qifang was naturally arranging his own military strength and territory. Zhu Wu and Wang Ping's journey north was not smooth. They had more than a dozen battles with the Yan State border troops in Yingzhou. They had just pacified Yingzhou, and ten  More than ten thousand Liao troops attacked Yingzhou again, and during the confrontation with the Liao army, there was another rebellion of tens of thousands of Yan soldiers, so Zhu Wu and Wang Ping were completely contained in Yingzhou.  And the war between Youzhou and Yunzhou and the Liao army started with a lot of food and drink.?, but the subsequent battles were successive victories. More than 400,000 Liao troops faced off against 600,000 "Zhou troops". They were defeated by the coalition forces of Yang Ye and Zheshi, and had occupied the entire Shengzhou grassland.  After receiving the military report, Lu Qi thought carefully and wrote a military order for the commander-in-chief's adjustment. He established the Bohai Governor's Palace in Yingzhou and ordered Yang Yanzhao to be the Governor of the Bohai Governor's Palace. He led 50,000 cavalry to aid Yingzhou and ordered  Zhu Wu and Wang Ping led the Jin army back, but left five thousand divine arm crossbows for Yang Yanzhao, and the crossbow army returned empty-handed.  In addition to the military order, there was also a letter of explanation to Zhu Wu and Wang Ping. The content was that summer was about to pass. Once the autumn and winter entered, the Jin army from the south of the Yangtze River would not be able to adapt to the bitter cold in the north. The severe cold would also cause the sharp divine arm crossbows to lose their power.  , In addition, it is difficult for the soldiers from the south to establish harmonious coexistence with the northerners, that is, they cannot use their own troops to organize the army and surrender.  Lu Qi also needed Zhu Wu's troops to return to Goryeo to prepare an ambush for a surprise attack on Jianghuai or Dengzhou. After the military order was issued, Lu Qi stood outside and looked into the sky. For the sake of the overall situation, he could only completely trust Yang Yanzhao. Yang Yanzhao left  Although Yingzhou was stronger than Zhu Wu, it was easy for him to become powerful. However, Lu Qi could only use his sword without hesitation, otherwise he would fall into the quagmire of war with the Liao army.  After Yang Yanzhao received the order, he led his army to the north. Zhu Wu and Wang Ping had already received the military order and letter from Lu Qi. The two commanders did not feel displeased. Instead, they both breathed a sigh of relief. Since the Northern Expedition, the soldiers from the south had obviously  With fatigue, many soldiers were not accustomed to the acclimatization and fell ill, especially the instability of the soldiers, which gave Zhu Wu and Wang Ping a great headache.  The two marshals began to make preparations for the handover. After discussing with some generals who had joined the army in the north, they decided to return to the Korean Peninsula by land. The main reason was that Wang Ping was willing to take the land route, and Zhu Wu left it to him. In fact, most of the troops came from the south.  Adapted to boating, Wang Ping is one of the few landlubbers.  After Yang Yanzhao arrived in Yingzhou, he respectfully paid a courtesy visit to Zhu Wu and Wang Ping. Zhu Wu and Wang Ping did not leave eagerly, but convened a gathering of all camp generals and generals above. At the gathering, in addition to drinking and talking, Wang Ping also  Through drinking, he revealed the secrets of the Jin State and told the generals affectionately that the territory of the Jin State was already the same as that of the Tang Dynasty. They could get whatever they wanted. The generals were welcome to go to Chang'an City for gatherings and to drink in Beiting, Hebei Province.  Yang Yanzhao was surprised when he heard this. Zhu Wula explained to him alone and told Yang Yanzhao that in the future the Jin Dynasty would be the Yu Empire. Because the Emperor of Zhou Dynasty in the Central Plains had decided to abdicate Lu Tianfeng, he made Lu Tianfeng the King of Yu. There was no usurpation of the throne by Lu Tianfeng.  Shi Hui inherited the legacy of Emperor Zhou and was granted the title of Emperor Dayu.  Yang Yanzhao nodded in understanding. In fact, he had understood it a long time ago, because the Emperor of the Zhou Dynasty repeatedly granted Lu Tianfeng the title, which had already shown his "heart of surrender". His father Yang Ye also said it, but Yang Ye did not want to be in the Great Zhou Dynasty.  Before Emperor Zhou made his announcement, he fawned over Lu Tianfeng.  After the gathering, Zhu Wu stayed for five days to help Yang Yanzhao establish the Bohai Governor's Palace, and handed over 5,000 divine arm crossbows to Yang Yanzhao's cavalry. After that, he led 80,000 troops and 70,000 soldiers to the Korean Peninsula and gave them to Yang Yanzhao.  Two hundred and sixty thousand northern troops were left behind.  Zhu Wu took away 70,000 surrendered soldiers, firstly to strengthen the rule of Goryeo, and secondly to reduce the rebellion crisis in Yingzhou.
