Back to the Song Dynasty as a tyrant

"The court of the Kingdom of Jin is intricate and complex. Although Zong Pan ascended the throne, he may not be able to convince the public. It is impossible for an arrogant soldier like Zong Han to listen to him."

"You mean, Zong Han will continue to go south?"

"Very likely."

"Then...we still have a chance?"

"If the Jin army goes south in a big way, we do have a chance!" Brother Li Cha said, "Song is not willing to meet the state, and then we will send troops to attack Song!"

"Okay!" Li Qianshun seemed to have hope rekindled in his eyes, "Observe Song and Jin's movements at any time, so that we can prepare early!"

"Yes!"

On the [-]th of the first lunar month, the Military and Political Council issued a secret order to transfer a group of Xiang troops from Dengzhou and Mizhou to Fuzhou and Korea. At the same time, merchants in the Hangzhou area would also secretly provide larger quantities of grain, cloth, medicinal materials and other materials for Liaodong.

While advocating a large increase in troops in the newspapers, Zhao Guan's family stood still and only gave logistics.

And in the early morning of the [-]th day of the first lunar month, Yu Yunwen from Zhending Mansion suddenly received an appointment from Zhao Guan's family.

Appoint him as the envoy of the Song Dynasty to represent the sincerity of the Zhao family, and go to Beijing to meet the newly enthroned emperor Wanyan Zongpan of the Jin Kingdom.

For the well-being of the people of the two countries, I hope that the friendship between the two countries will last forever.

However, in the second ten days of the first lunar month, officials of the Military and Political Yuan significantly increased their grain purchases from the coast of East Jingdong Road and Hangzhou.

In addition, crates of weapons, even firearms, are also being transported to Liaodong.

The official transportation system in the eastern part of the Great Song Dynasty is running fast.

This was not enough. On the [-]th day of the first lunar month, Wu Jie of Taiyuan Mansion also received a letter from Zhao Guan's family.

The content of the letter is very simple: When will Qing move Linzhou?

In this way, the large-scale increase of troops in Goryeo is false, but the attack on Linzhou is true!

Song Jinxia's situation continued to develop as the Koryo war situation changed.

On the 22nd of the first lunar month, Wanyan Zonghan's [-] troops arrived in Liaoyang mightily, with the momentum of swallowing mountains and rivers.

Zong Han did not continue to go south immediately, but recruited soldiers and horses in Liaoyang.

He wants to conscript 2 more in Liaoyang, plus [-] from Daizhou Wanyan Saliyao, for a total of [-] troops.

This is a mighty army.

Zong Han's military talent, whether it is strategic deployment or tactical command, is absolutely top-notch in the Kingdom of Jin.

As for his talent at the tactical level, I am afraid that only the deceased Wanyan Loushi can surpass him.

As for Jin Wushu, compared with Zong Han, there is still a clear gap.

If it wasn't for the Song Army's third war in the third year of Jingkang, Zong Han was maimed by Zhao Ning in the first battle of Shangdang, and the situation changed. He was suppressed by the domestic peace faction, and Zong Han had already gone south several times.

I'm afraid it won't be the case now.

However, anything in the world is by no means something you can do if you want to do it.

Even if the emperor wants to do one thing, he needs to use means to make all parties reach an agreement.

Now, in the Kingdom of Jin, it is not just the peace faction and the war faction that have internal conflicts.

The war situation in Koryo led to differences of opinion between the main combat faction and the main combat faction.

Zong Han's insistence on going south was strongly opposed by Wanyan Xiyin.

Wanyan Xiyin said: "Zhongshu Ling, the current situation in Koryo is not optimistic!"

Wanyan Zonghan said with a cold face: "There are still more than 7000 horses in Balisu. According to your strategy, he can definitely establish another Koryo king in Koryo, and support the Koryo people in the north to fight against the Song army!"

"but……"

"Do you want us to send out the main force for that stupid thing in Goryeo?" Zong Han was in a bad mood. "If Song is not attacked now, I will be weakened in the court. Do you know the consequences?"

"Of course I know the consequences." Wanyan Xi Yinyu said earnestly, "But if the Song army completely controls Goryeo, it will be even more difficult for us to get Fuzhou. Fuzhou and Goryeo have formed a corner against me in Liaodong. , the hinterland of our Kingdom of Jin will be completely exposed to the advance of the Song army, this is a big taboo!"

"I only need half a year. The goal this time is not Tokyo City, but to destroy Song's deep defense in Hebei!" Zong Han said confidently, "I have thought about Zong Wang's strategy carefully, and he is right. You can't eat Song Guo in one breath, you need to eat one bite at a time, and you will make Song Guo exhausted!"

"In case of the situation in Korea..."

"Our army will go south to Hebei, and Song will come back from Liaodong to help!"

"But what if the Song army goes north from Fuzhou?" Wanyan Xiyin said, "This move is too risky, Zhongshu orders you to think twice!"

"Let's see who can win faster. If I penetrate the Song Army's defenses in Hebei within a month, the Song Army will panic inside. You just need to defend Liaoyang!"

Wan Yan Xiyin said: "There is a Song general named Yue Fei in Hebei.

"I have long wanted to learn from Yue Fei!"

Wanyan Xiyin seemed determined not to want Wanyan Zonghan to go south. He continued, "What if the Song State increases its troops to Goryeo at this time, and intends to end the Goryeo War as soon as possible with the momentum of Mount Tai?"

"Impossible!" Wanyan Zonghan immediately denied Wanyan Xiyin's conjecture, "The Song army deployed thousands of miles from Shaanxi to Koryo, and deployed military defense lines. He has no extra troops to mobilize!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Gao Qingyi hurried in: "Zhongshu Ling, it's not good, Song Ting will send another 30 troops to Goryeo!"

Chapter 654 Han Shizhong's Pot? (third change)

"An increase of 30 troops?" Wanyan Xiyin frowned.

Gao Qingyi held a newspaper in his hand.

Zong Han took it and read it quickly. He said calmly, "This is fake. Song Ting deliberately confuses us."

Wanyan Xiyin said: "But what if it is true?"

Zong Han said: "It would be great if the Song Dynasty really increased its troops by 30. Hebei is empty. I will go south in one fell swoop, hit Tokyo City, cut off all the supplies of the dog emperor, and see if the Liaodong army will return to the division Qinwang!"

"Zhong Shuling, the lower officials thought that this matter should not be made hastily before making a decision, and sent scouts to Hebei to investigate the situation. If Yue Fei and others are still in Hebei, the situation may not be optimistic." Gao Qingyi said.

Wanyan Xiyin said: "If Zongwang can make a statement at this time, it would be great to go south with us. Zongwang doesn't have a large number of soldiers and horses. Going south together can cause the Song Dynasty to overwhelm the Song Dynasty. How is the situation in Koryo? It's not that important anymore, so, Zhong Shuling, you still have to go to Yanjing to convince Zongwang."

At this time, Zong Han didn't know that the nominal boss of the Yanyun area had been replaced by Wan Yanchang, an old friend of Song Dynasty.

Zong Han fell silent. After thinking for a long time, he said, "I'll go to Yanjing first to meet Zong Wang."

Gao Qingyi said: "But we have to make preparations in advance. If Zongwang is willing to cooperate with us, we can march south to attack the Song Dynasty. If Zongwang is not willing, and Yue Fei's army is still in Hebei, Li Cui's army from Qingyuan Mansion is also there. Then we need to make adjustments based on the situation in Koryo, after all, we cannot be sure about the fact that the Song State increased its troops in Koryo, if it is true, the risk is too great."

Zong Han said: "Official Zhao's strategy is better than I imagined."

This is the strategic advantage.

Strategically, as long as you have an advantage, the enemy will be very passive, forcing the enemy to consume a lot of resources.

The so-called subduing without fighting refers to the strategic level most of the time.

On the 23rd of the first lunar month, Wende Hall in Tokyo City.

Zhao Gou saluted and said, "Officials, I'm ready to get up and go to the northwest."

"Brother Jiu, I'm sorry for you. Every time there is an important matter, I have to trouble you."

"The official's words are serious. It's my honor to be able to share the worries of the official!" Zhao Gou was quite emotional, "I don't know when I will be able to return. Let's play polo and go fishing together!"

"Northwest folk customs are no better than Tokyo, you have to pay attention to everything."

"Yes."

"I will let someone take good care of Bingyi."

"Thank you, officer."

The two then chatted for a while before Zhao Gou resigned and left Wende Hall, ready to go.

When Zhao Gou passed the Zhengshitang, he heard that there seemed to be a quarrel in the Zhengshitang. It seemed to be about Korea, and it seemed to have something to do with Han Shizhong.

Things have been going a little out of order lately.

He thought in his heart that it would be best to take this opportunity to pull Han Shizhong down. If King Qi continued to make meritorious service in Liaodong, he would be in trouble.

In a daze, he saw Gao Qiu walking quickly towards Wende Hall.

"Captain Gao."

Gao Qiu stopped, looked up, and quickly said, "His Royal Highness Kang Wang."

"Why is Gao Taiwei so urgent?"

"It's nothing, just small things."

"Gao Taiwei, I heard that the imperial court won the battle in Koryo."

"Yeah, hasn't this matter been spread a long time ago?"

"Xiao Wang is happy for my nephew."

"The nephew of His Royal Highness Kang Wang?" Gao Qiu was stunned for a moment, "Qi Wang?"

"Yes, King Qi has made great contributions in Korea, and maybe he will be restored to the crown prince in the future. Xiao Wang has always looked up to him."

A smile appeared on Gao Qiu's face.

Zhao Gou said deliberately again: "I heard that Chen'er offended Captain Gao before, and Xiao Wang is here to apologize for Chen'er. He is still young and ignorant."

"It's okay, it's okay." Gao Qiu didn't continue, but said, "His Royal Highness, take care all the way."

After finishing speaking, Gao Qiu hurried to Wende Hall.

Gao Qiu heard the implication of Zhao Gou's words.

Zhao Gou is reminding him that King Qi hates Gao Qiu very much. Now that King Qi has made meritorious service and may regain the crown prince, you Gao Qiu must be careful!

Gao Qiu murmured in his heart: This King Kang, now his methods are getting more and more sophisticated, and his words can't be traced.

When Gao Qiu arrived at Wende Hall, he said, "Your Majesty, there are two matters."

"Speak slowly."

"One is to confirm that the recent rumors about Han Shizhong among the people in Tokyo are indeed related to Jin Renxiozuo, and it was Lu Qingliu who personally told the minister."

"Did he tell you about the whereabouts of Jin Renxiozuo?"

"He doesn't know either." Gao Qiu said, "He also said that last year some people in Tokyo City said they wanted peace, that they wanted to dismantle the military and defense, and rest with the people.

Zhao Ning thought about it. These strategies were probably not only thought up by the top officials of the Jin Kingdom, but also related to the Han ministers of the Jin Kingdom.

It seems that Song Jinxia's public opinion war needs to be upgraded!

Some time ago, Zhao Ning had used Jin Guo's secret work to convey to Jin Guo's senior management the action of increasing troops to Goryeo.

He asserted that, next, Song Jin will launch a protracted military operation in Koryo.

And at this time, a batch of detailed work should be arranged to go to Shangjing and Yanjing, so that Jin Guo can understand how the real public opinion war is played.

"What about the second thing?"

"Qingzhou Tuiguan Liu Chu and Shi Cao Canjun have obtained the Imperial City Si Yamen, and this is their confession."

After Zhao Ning finished reading, his face was calm, but there were waves in his heart.

"This Zhang Lu is a member of the Liaodong Economic and Strategy Department who joins the army?"

"Yes, it is specially responsible for connecting military rations with the transfer branch of the transfer department."

"Didn't it mean that the transshipment department on Jingdong East Road was also involved?"

"you can say it this way."

Zhao Ning pondered.

Gao Qiu continued: "I have asked, this Zhang Lu..."

"What about him?"

"He was indeed recommended by Han Shizhong."

Zhao Ning said calmly: "You mean, Han Shizhong really acquiesced to this incident in Qingzhou?"

Gao Qiu took a deep breath, cold sweat began to break out on his forehead, he quickly said: "It can't be Han Shuai!"

joke!Even if it's Han Shizhong now, it can't be Han Shizhong. I, Gao Li, can still tell this clearly.

"Han Shuai understands righteousness well, and there is no need to be greedy for these things, but I feel that there is someone else."

"This Zhang Lu was recommended by Han Shizhong."

"Han Shuai's righteousness, the recommender is not for self-interest, but for justice. Although Zhang Lu is guilty of this matter, his military rations in the past two years in Liaodong are no problem in terms of personal ability, but..."

"But what?"
