Back to the Song Dynasty as a tyrant

Not to mention, Zhao Ning has placed a lot of secret work in Yanyun over the years, and built some networks from the inside.

However, even Zhao Ning did not expect Wan Yanliang to do such a trick at this moment.

This is probably driven by someone behind the scenes.

This is the case with political imbalances. Once the balance of power is broken, it is easy for you to help me to the top today, and tomorrow I will join forces with outsiders to kill you.

Therefore, the emperors of all dynasties would rather kill [-] by mistake, but also must maintain the balance of power.

Because an imbalance of power is a political disaster.

"No wonder the envoy of Jin Wushu came to see me." Only then did Zhao Ning come to his senses.

Sun Fu also came back to his senses: "So, Jin Wushu is planning to negotiate a peace with us first, and finish Yan Liang later?"

Lu Yihao said: "If this is the case, it can really make them think about fighting first."

"It's absolutely impossible." Zhang Jun immediately denied Lu Yihao's idea.

When it comes to the administration of officials, factions, and logistics, Zhang Jun is not as good as Lu Yihao.

What Lu Yihao is best at is managing a large civil service team and carrying out his own orders.

But in terms of strategy, Lu Yihao is much worse than Zhang Jun.

Zhang Jun said: "Jin Wushu will never make peace with us to deal with Wanyan Liang, Wanyan Liang is thousands of miles away from him, how could he suddenly change the deployment of troops to deal with Wanyan Liang?"

Chapter 1437 The Great War Is Coming (Third Change)

"Then how does the envoy of the Golden Wushu explain it?"

Sun Fu did not agree with what Zhang Jun said, he felt that Jin Wushu was really desperate now, so he was forced to negotiate a peace.

It just so happens that there is turmoil in the Kingdom of Jin, which can be used well.

"Jin Wushu sent envoys just to delay the time. He has already secretly dispatched troops." Zhang Jun said firmly, "If Wan Yanliang wants to send troops from Shangjing to the south, it will take at least two months. Jin Wushu is very clear about it. He has less than two months, and it is best to end the battle with us within one month."

"Your Majesty, I don't agree with Zhang Xianggong's words, I think..."

Sun Fu wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Zhao Ning.

Zhao Ning waved his hand and said: "Go and kill that golden envoy named Xilinhelu, throw his head back, let Jin Wushu see my attitude towards him, let him set his own attitude, don't play tricks with me , if he is not convinced, he will come to Hejian Mansion to look for me."

Zhang Jun responded immediately: "Yes, I will arrange it now."

Xilinhelu was still waiting outside at this time, just like any previous mission to Song Dynasty, although he could not take advantage of it, Xilinhelu had a word written on his face: I am so awesome!

After finishing a cup of tea, he said impatiently: "How long will it take, you Song people are just not punctual! I really thought I came here to beg you!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a group of imperial guards filed in from outside.

Xilin Heru suddenly stood up, saw the person coming, his eyes suddenly became fierce, and he shouted: "What is this?"

It was Zheng Xi who strode in and asked, "Your Excellency is the Jinshi?"

"Why, when did Da Song's way of hospitality become the imperial army to welcome them?" Xilinhelu said coldly, "Could it be that you are afraid?"

Zheng Xi quickly said: "No, no, don't get me wrong, I just want to invite you out for a while."

"Is it Zhao Guan's family who wants to see me?"

"No, it's Jin Wushu who wants to see your head."

Xilin Helu was stunned for a moment before he could react, but it was too late, the guards around rushed over and captured Xilin Helu.

No matter how Xilin Helu struggled, it was of no avail and he could no longer break free.

"How dare you!" Xilin Helu was furious, "I am the envoy of Daikin! I am the envoy of Daikin!"

But Zheng Xi didn't care about these things at this time, he couldn't help showing a happy smile on his happy face.

His father and mother were all killed by the Jin people during the Song-Jin War, and later the brothers and sisters depended on each other for their lives. If they hadn't met Zhao Guan's family by fate, they would have starved to death now.

Kill the golden man?

He is more active than anyone else.

After Xilin Helu was escorted out, he was thrown outside on the school grounds. He was still trying to struggle vigorously, but his legs were broken by the imperial guards with wooden sticks.

A strong imperial guard on one side cut off Xilin Helu's head with a single slash, and a large amount of blood flowed to the ground, melting the ice and snow.

On the eighth day of the first lunar month, news of the Jin envoy's killing also reached Yue Fei, meaning, Yue Shuai, the Jin envoy has already been killed, don't believe any recent rumors, and fight the battle as you like.

On the eleventh day of the first lunar month, Xilin Helu's head was delivered to Jin Wushu, and Jin Wushu was furious.

In order to confuse Zhao Guanjia, he even asked Wanyan Xiyin to stop the confrontation with Zhang Xianbu. The purpose was to hope Zhao Guanjia believed in his peace talks.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Guan's family cut off the envoy directly, which is equivalent to completely cutting off all hope of peace talks.

But at this time, the voice of peace in Yanjing City quietly rose.

That night, it is said that several families were killed by Jin Wushu and Yi Clan.

Early in the morning on the twelfth day of the first lunar month, people found that the walls were covered with heads.

A large number of soldiers of the Jin Army came out of Yanjing City, and there were endless cavalry waiting outside the city.

At this time, let alone scouts, even ordinary people who eat melons are aware of Yanjing's military movements.

On the morning of the [-]th day of the first lunar month, the Han Chang Department in Anci County also became extremely active.

At noon, a Jin army kidnapped horses, suddenly left Anci County, and quickly advanced to the south of Bazhou.

At four quarters in the afternoon, the whereabouts of Jin Jun's kidnapper Ma was tracked down by Song Jun's scouts and reported to Yue Fei.

In the afternoon, it was Yue Yun who came out to fight.

The cavalry of the two sides confronted each other for half an hour in the [-] miles north of Bazhou, mainly shooting and hedging, but did not form an intensive charge.

But this undoubtedly told the Song army that the Jin people were ready to go to war.

The fact is also true. In the evening, just as the Jinren's forward kidnapper Ma withdrew, Yue Fei received the latest news from the front that large-scale Jin troops were continuously gathering in Anci County.

In the early morning of the [-]th day of the first lunar month, the information was sent to Bazhou again.

It is said that the strength of the Jin people has spread across 23 miles, and the scale is still expanding rapidly.

This is the information sent by scouts from all walks of life. The number of people far exceeds everyone's estimation.

At noon on the [-]th day of the first lunar month, another special piece of information was delivered to Yue Fei's desk.

On the road from Yanjing to Zhuozhou, a large number of Jin troops were also found, with a strength of at least [-], and some even said that they had a strength of more than [-].

If you look down from a high altitude, you can see a long team that divides the ice and snow into two halves, and is heading southward.

On the morning of the fourteenth day of the first lunar month, Zhao Ning's desk was already full of information from the front line.

"Golden Wushu is here." Zhao Ning said concisely to the ministers beside him.

He picked up a piece of information casually, and said: "On the road from Yanjing to Zhuozhou, a hundred thousand troops were discovered. These people could not have appeared out of thin air. They were prepared by Jin Wushu, but these are by no means soldiers. , I believe that the vast majority are just ordinary people, oh, the Jin people call them signing troops."

"On the road from Yanjing to Anci County, which spans dozens of miles, it is said that many people were forcibly pulled from villages under other prefectural capitals and counties. Of course, it is impossible to temporarily arrest strong men."

"A few days ago, someone told me that Jin Wushu always conscripted with one head. He made a lot of money in the Song Dynasty and wanted to spend the money. No matter how much he spent? I don't believe that Jin Wushu has Sufficient supply of food and grass, the current army is coming fiercely, how turbulent it is, how tragic it will be after a while!"

"He Jin Wushu wants to use this trick to scare me, I won't be fooled, and you don't have to worry about it."

Zhang Jun said: "Your Majesty is wise, but in the current situation, the most important thing is not how many troops the Jin people have sent out, but the main force of the Jin people. Which side of our army will they attack?"

"If the Jin army from Yanjing to Zhuozhou has a large number of elites, Zhang Xian may not be able to defend it. If Zhang Xian is defeated, the Jin people can drive straight into Zhending Mansion. The main force of our army is on the eastern front, and the western front is weak. I am afraid... ..."

As soon as he said this, the atmosphere in the hall immediately became dignified.

Zhao Ning said with a smile: "You know, why the main force of Jin Wushu will not be heavily pressed by Zhang Xian?"

Chapter 1438 The main force of the Golden Army? (first update)

"Jin Wushu may not necessarily come to Hejian Mansion." Zhang Jun said, "If Zhang Xian's troops are defeated quickly, they can go straight to Zhending Mansion, break through our army's defense line, and even burn the flames of war to Daming Mansion, and the whole situation will be in chaos. .”

What Zhang Jun said is of course reasonable, and many people agree with him.

But Zhao Ning resisted all opinions, and said: "Jin Wushu has no time, if Wan Yanliang doesn't send out the appeal to thieves, Jin Wushu can consider changing the target, put the main force in Zhuozhou, and cover it up with lightning speed." With the momentum of the ears, Zhuozhou was defeated and quickly moved south."

"Do you know why?" Zhao Guanjia showed an inscrutable smile.

Lu Yihao said: "Because even if Jin Wushu is defeated, there is still a way out. The worst result is to retreat to Liaodong, but now he has no way out at all."

Zhao Ning asked again: "Then what is the purpose of his sending troops now?"

"Naturally, after defeating us, turn around and fight Wan Yanliang."

"When will we fight Wan Yanliang?" Zhao Ning asked again.

Everyone was stunned for a moment, and Sun Fu said, "After two months?"

"Then he will put his main force in Zhuozhou. Suppose Zhuozhou is destroyed in a few days, and the Jin army goes south to Zhending Mansion. How long will it take for the Jin people to take Zhending? How long will it take for the Jin people to reach Daming after taking Zhending?" Mansion? When we arrive at Daming Mansion, will we be able to defeat us and then turn around and fight Wan Yanliang?"

Zhao Guan's series of questions can be said to have reached the core of the battle.

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay.

Zhao Ning finally said: "Jin Wushu can't fight protracted battles, let alone deep battles. He is facing enemies, so he can only deal with the biggest enemy before Wan Yanliang comes. In the end, he can only fail, defeating the Hejian Mansion is his only chance and also his last hope."

As the saying goes, Dao soldiers are impermanent, water is impermanent, and wars are ever-changing.

But now Jin Wushu has been locked down layer by layer, no matter whether it is strategic or tactical operation space, it is gone.

"The so-called using a large number of people to plant suspicious soldiers, in my opinion, is Jin Wushu's last resort, and it's just a small trick that can't be put on the table. You spread the news and tell Jin Wushu that I am in the Hejian Mansion. Send him one last ride."

After saying this, Zhao Ning seemed to feel more at ease.

In the first few years when I wanted to travel over by myself, I was always passively resisting gold.

Later, Han Shizhong took Fuzhou in Liaodong, which was the first time that Song Dynasty took the initiative to implement the counterattack strategy against Jin.

But this is only to restrain Jin Guo.

Later, the recovery of Taiyuan and the layout of the Yinshan Mountains, the establishment of Anbei Mansion, the recovery of the three towns in Hebei, and the conquest of the grasslands were all strategically encircling the Kingdom of Jin.

Afterwards, the currency war against the Kingdom of Jin took time out of the national strength of the Kingdom of Jin, and now, under the banner of revenge for Wanyan Quan, they joined forces with Wanyan Liang.

Finally, he locked all the operable spaces of Jin Wushu.

There was only one way for Jin Wushu: a frontal fight to the death.

This series of operations over the years can be described as stable and stable, never eager to get ahead and advance aggressively, let alone slack off because of difficulties.

On the fourteenth day of the first lunar month, early in the morning, the snow had already settled down, the sky was clear, and the sun was bathing the empty and desolate snowfield.

In the camp of the Song army in Bazhou, the smoke from the kitchen was curling up, and the patrolling soldiers walked past neatly, everything seemed extremely normal.

But at this time, the sound of the horn suddenly sounded in front of the camp.

The soldiers who were still eating steamed buns in the camp looked up.

"It's the rallying call."

"Everyone put on armor and sharpen immediately!"

As soon as everyone heard the order, they immediately acted.

"Is the golden man here?" someone asked.

"It's still a question, it may be the main force of the Jin people."

"How many have you come?"

"do not know."

After stuffing the steamed buns into their mouths indiscriminately, they rushed into the camp and began to put on their armor.

"Did the Golden Wushu also come?" Several young recruits asked.

"Maybe." It was their leader who answered them, "The main force of Chuanjin people is coming these days."

"If I cut off Jin Wushu's head, what kind of official rank can I rise to?"

"You can be a general!"

"Alright, I'm going to chop off Jin Wushu's head!"

"Count me in!"

"Don't even think about it, just kill a few golden soldiers honestly, and try to get a few heads back from the golden man Meng'an."

"..."

Not long after, a young man galloped out surrounded by everyone.
