Back to the Song Dynasty as a tyrant

Chapter 900 Xixia joins the war? (first update)

On September [-]th, Xingqing Mansion.

"Something's wrong! Something's wrong!" Wei Ming Anhui rushed to the palace early in the morning. After seeing Li Qianshun come out, he became even more excited, "Your Majesty, something is wrong!"

"Why so panic?"

"The Song army sent troops to take down Dongsheng Prefecture!"

"Song Jun took Dongsheng Prefecture?" Li Qianshun was taken aback, his expression changed immediately, "Is the news reliable?"

"It's true, the Jin Army has arrived at the southern foot of Yinshan Mountain!"

"Oh." Li Qianshun breathed a sigh of relief, "Since the Jin army is here, the problem is not too big."

"But the Wanggu tribe rebelled, and the Jin army is now encircling and suppressing the Wanggu tribe. The battle situation is very unclear!"

Li Qianshun raised his heart again. He stared at Wei Ming Anhui and said impatiently, "Can you finish the sentence at once!"

"Yes, yes, the Wanggu tribe rebelled, and the Jin army is encircling and suppressing the Wanggu people. The Song army not only occupied Dongsheng Prefecture, but also dispatched a large number of troops, intending to seize Henan and occupy the southern foot of Yinshan Mountain!"

"Go! Go and bring King Jin! Go!"

"Yes!"

Not long after, Brother Li Cha came.

"His Majesty."

"Prince Jin, the Song army has already begun to attack Yinshan Mountain!"

Brother Li Cha was stunned for a moment, and thought: "The Jin army will definitely send troops, and will never sit idly by."

"The Golden Army has sent troops."

"Who is the Commander?"

Li Qianshun looked at Wei Ming An Hui.

Wei Ming Anhui said: "It was Pucha's Shi family servant who led the army to march west."

"Since it's Puchashi's slaves leading the army to march west, why worry?"

"But the Song people's ambitions have been made no secret. They occupied Yinshan to completely cut off our connection with Jin!" Li Qianshun's face was very ugly.

"Your Majesty is completely overwhelmed!" Brother Li Cha said, "The Song army's move to occupy Dongsheng Prefecture is beneficial to us!"

"How do you say that?"

"Now we have a strong army, don't say that the Song people can't occupy Yinshan at all, even if we do, as long as we send cavalry from Montenegro, we can threaten the Song army at Yinshan at any time, and the Jin army will not sit idly by. And how can we gain a firm foothold in Yinshan for a long time?"

He said so that Li Qianshun couldn't help nodding.

"If you want to stand there, you need a lot of manpower and material resources, otherwise everything will be a castle in the air, and it will fall if you blow it." Brother Li Cha said, "If the Song Dynasty is willing to invest military expenses there, Shaanxi will definitely not dare to go there in a short time. Disturbance, if Song Guo can fight Jin Guo there for a long time, we can seize the right time and take the initiative to attack the Shaanxi Song Army."

Li Qianshun continued to nod.

"Your Majesty, I heard that the battle between Song and Jin in Liaodong is still going on, and now we are fighting again in Yinshan. If we fight again in Shaanxi and prolong the war, your Majesty, how long can Song fight on three fronts? Two years , Three years? Or five years? After fighting for so long, will there be any problems within Song Dynasty?"

Hearing Brother Li Cha's analysis, the haze in Li Qianshun's heart was instantly swept away.

"So what should we do now?"

"From now on, the only thing we have to do is to do everything we can to consume Song's money, whether it's business or war, we must get closer to this goal."

"I did some rough calculations. The annual financial income of the Song Dynasty may be 5000 to 500 million yuan in cash. However, according to the war in Liaodong and the garrison in Hebei, now Yinshan is fighting again, and Shaanxi is still garrisoning troops. With such a huge front, Zhao Guanjia The annual military expenditure is at least [-] million guan.”

"And this military expenditure, as long as there is a slight accident, it will increase again. Zhao Guan's family is dancing on the edge of the knife." Brother Li Cha analyzed in an orderly manner, "Expenditures continue to increase, but Zhao Guan's annual income has reached the limit. grow again."

Li Qianshun walked back and forth, and his mind was spinning fast, he said: "So it seems that Song Guo has become stronger, but the battle line is stretched and the interior is tense, so it is actually very dangerous?"

"Yes, Zhao's family can't afford to lose, and they can't fight for a long time. Just like when the Han Dynasty fought against the Xiongnu, Emperor Xiaowu once had a strong Han army, but did they really wipe out the Huns? No! Not only did they not, the treasury of the Han Dynasty was empty, and the people inside were living in dire straits. If Emperor Wu of the Han hadn't sinned against himself in his later years, the great Han would have perished long ago, and Zhao Guan's family is now following the old path of Emperor Xiaowu of the Han!"

"Prince Jin, you just said, what should we do at this moment?" Li Qianshun's eyes lit up again.

"Hengshan's defense line is full of elite soldiers. It is not that simple for the Song army to attack Hengshan." Brother Li Cha said, "Now we can send a cavalry from the Heishan Weifu Army Division to Yinshan, and then send an envoy to Dongsheng state."

"Going to Dongsheng Prefecture?"

"That's right, when you see people from Song Dynasty, you say that Dongsheng Prefecture has always been the territory of my Great Xia Kingdom!"

"Isn't this a declaration of war against Song?"

"It's not even a declaration of war, it's still under debate." Brother Li Cha said again, "Send another person to the Kingdom of Jin to meet with the commander of the Jin Army, and have secret talks with the Jin Army to jointly consume the Kingdom of Song and muddy the water!"

Li Qianshun took a deep breath and said, "It makes sense!"

Yinshan is an absolutely indispensable strategic location, whether it is a blow to Xixia, a deterrent to the Jin Kingdom, or a deterrent to the Mongol Tatars in the future.

Therefore, during the Han and Tang Dynasties, many cities were built here and a large number of people moved here.

When Da Song came here, he almost touched Xixia's last nerve.

The Song army was in the Hengshan area. If the Hengshan defense line was destroyed, the Xixia people could flee north and take advantage of the desert to live a nomadic life in the Heishan, Heishui, and Hexi Corridor in the north of Xixia.

But if Yinshan is taken down by the Song army, it will be only five hundred miles away from Dongsheng, and the Heishan Weifu Army Division, which is also on the edge of the Yellow River, will be directly exposed to the iron hooves of the Song army.

Then the Xixia people can only curl up to Hexi, and Hexi becomes their final resting place.

Losing the strategic buffer and huddling in Hexi, it is only a matter of time before it perishes.

Therefore, for Li Qianshun, when the situation has developed to this point, he will never sit idly by again.

On September [-]th, Pusha's Shijia slave saw Ala suddenly.

"See Marshal Zuo!" Ah La suddenly said.

"sit down."

"Thank you Marshal Zuo."

"Originally, they said they wanted to chop your body into pieces to make an example to everyone else, but this commander decided to spare your life because of your willingness to surrender to my Dajin."

"Thank you, Marshal Zuo, for your kindness in rebuilding." Ah La suddenly showed a look of gratitude on his face, and he couldn't help but squeeze out a few tears from the corners of his eyes.

"The misunderstanding in the past, let's expose it, and I will intercede for you with His Majesty."

Ah La suddenly stood up and saluted: "Marshal Zuo's kindness to me, I can't repay you, I will smash it to pieces!"

"Okay, how many soldiers and horses do you have now?"

"There are still twelve thousand!" Ah La said without changing his face and heartbeat.

Pucha Shi's servant cursed in his heart: Fart!

But he was very kind on the surface, he said: "Gather your troops quickly, let's go south and besiege the Song army together!"

Chapter 901 The Ambition of the Golden Wushu (Second Change)

Jin Jun began to rectify the army.

Pucha Shijianu sent a large number of scouts to the south again, and began to inquire about Dongsheng Prefecture's intelligence in all aspects.

Time passed quickly, and it was late September in a blink of an eye.

Pucha Shijianu became anxious.

Ah Hu Dai, who was sent to see Yeluyu, has not heard from him.

From here to Dongshengzhou, three days are enough.

But Ah Hu's belt has been gone for nearly ten days, and it seems to have disappeared.

"I'm afraid Yelu Yujian has already sensed that something is wrong." Liu E said.

"You mean, he has betrayed?"

"There is only one possibility." Liu E sighed and said, "It's all because of the wrong judgment of the lower officials."

"I can't blame you for this." Pucha Shijianu said, "If you don't send Yelu Yujian and let him stay in Yunzhou, I'm afraid the consequences will be more serious, but Yeluyu Jian surrendered to the Song Kingdom, we can just catch them all and let him go Those domestic Khitans, look at the fate of traitors!"

"The commander-in-chief is wise!" Liu E said loudly, "However, Yeluyu didn't stop the people of Song Dynasty and let them replenish a lot of food and grass in the past two months. I'm afraid it will be difficult for us..."

"What's the difficulty, Dongsheng City?" Pucha Shijianu sneered, "Didn't we bring a few heavy trebuchets, let the Song people taste their own weapons."

On September 25, Yu Yunwen received a letter from Wu Jie.

"Director Guo, good news!"

"Oh?"

"Wu Shuai has taken Yunzhou!" Yu Yunwen said.

"Really?" Guo Hao took the letter and read it quickly, he said excitedly, "That's great!"

Yu Yunwen said: "But after all, we only captured Yunzhou. If we really want to occupy it, it may not be so simple."

"You don't have to worry about this kind of thing. Wu Shuai has his own arrangements. If he can mobilize more manpower and material resources quickly, Wu Shuai will definitely win Yunzhou. If there is no other way, Wu Shuai will not stay longer , but defeating Yunzhou, even if it is stationed for a period of time, will also deal a heavy blow to the Jin army's westward expedition to Yinshan Mountain!"

"Pucha Shi's slave doesn't know yet, his logistical supplies may be cut off!" Yu Yunwen looked at the map, "If nothing else happens, that old fox, Ah Lahu, has surrendered now, and the Jin army will go south soon .”

"It's really despicable that Ah Lahusu surrendered to the Jinren so easily. In my opinion, it's best to fight with him, and don't ask him for future business!"

"If we don't look for him, who shall we look for in Monan?" Yu Yunwen smiled wryly.

"This guy is a two-faced pie, he wants to eat both ends!"

Yu Yunwen said: "Then let him eat, as long as it is beneficial to us, let him eat enough, and when we gain a firm foothold one day and don't need him, it will not be too late to remove him."

"But I'm just worried that this guy is going to bite us back now."

"No, he still thinks about our tea leaves!"

Having said this, Guo Hao also agreed, and he emphasized again: "It's better for you scholars to see the problem comprehensively."

On September [-]th, Han Duo rode his horse and galloped all the way east. First, he stayed in Weizhou for half a day to replenish his horses and food, and then he galloped all the way back to Youzhou.

In Youzhou city at this time, Wushu is checking with Han Chang the deployment of troops in Yizhou, Xiongzhou and Bazhou.

These three places are all located in Hebei, which is to the north of Zhongshan Mansion and Hejian Mansion. They are border towns of Jin State in the south, opposite to Zhongshan, Hejian, and Zhending in Song Dynasty.

Yue Fei built a large number of fortifications in Zhending, Zhongshan, and Hejian, and laid down hundreds of miles of defense horizontally.

The Kingdom of Jin also began to build city walls in Yizhou, Xiongzhou and Bazhou, and also began to make a deep military layout.

This did not exist in the former Jin Kingdom, because in the past, Song Dynasty only had passive defense.

But after the sixth battle between Song and Jin, even the Kingdom of Jin felt the change in the offensive and defensive situation.

The military defenses of Yizhou, Xiongzhou, and Bazhou represent that the Kingdom of Jin has also begun to take a defensive position. At least the Jin people have begun to worry about Yue Fei and other hardliners suddenly going north.

Han Chang said: "The troops in Yizhou, Xiongzhou, and Bazhou have all been deployed. The iron transported from Liaodong is enough to make another 3000 pairs of armor and [-] million arrows."

"Has the iron arrived?"

"Temporarily halfway shipped, but there is a problem."

"what is the problem?"

"The number of craftsmen in Yanjing is not enough. It may be difficult to complete these."

"how much time is required?"

"It will take at least two years." Han Chang said, "Most craftsmen are concentrated in the interior."

The inland he mentioned refers to Huining Mansion, which is the Shangjing area.

After the founding of the Jin Kingdom, they plundered a lot of Liao and Song Dynasties, and captured many craftsmen and materials, all of which were piled up in Shangjing.

"I will arrange this matter." Wu Shu said, "I have ordered [-] craftsmen to be transferred from Shangjing to the south, and they will be transferred down one after another."

"I'm afraid this will cause opposition from the nobles in Shangjing."

"Their opposition is invalid." Wu Shu said, "We must use all the materials we can use in military and political affairs, and fully confront Song State. If we win Song State, we will have everything."

"Using everything that can be used in military affairs, those nobles are afraid..."

"This is how the Zhao official family made the Song country stronger again. The former Song people used all their money for food, drink and entertainment. In recent years, the Song people have spent most of their money in the army. Those bureaucrats' money was poached by the Zhao official family. Come out, this point is worth learning!" Wu Shu said.

"As for the aristocrats you mentioned, now that the new official positions have been fully implemented, both Khitans and Hans have a chance."

Han Chang said: "The general always feels that the Khitan people are not trustworthy. Xiao Gaoliu and Yeluyu are planning to rebel. These Khitan nobles all miss Qian Liao."

Wu Shu said: "Kill this group of people, deter the rest, and then give benefits, and gradually these people will no longer have unreasonable thoughts."

"Your Highness, I don't know if I should say something or not."

"But it doesn't matter."
