Under the ban on Lin'an, the Political Affairs Hall.

In the capital room dedicated to the right prime minister and Privy Councilor Jia Sidao, the two looked at each other silently. Today, Jia Sidao only came to the Political Affairs Hall until noon, and did not discuss matters with the left prime minister Wu Qian. He just stayed in his capital room, holding a letter from Li Tingzhi, and looked over and over again, and didn't know how long it took to look. Liao Yingzhong and Liang Chongru both stood aside, and their faces were also a little solemn.

It was quiet inside the room, and only the slight sound of paper shaking was heard.

At the end, Jia Sidao shook his hand and threw the letter on the table, taking a deep breath: "What exactly does Chen Dexing want to do... The Pili Navy is already a private soldier of the Chen family. Li Tingzhi's words of comforting are not at all, and Lu Shihu, the deputy commander-in-chief, is even more empty... The group of big-headed soldiers below are not afraid of hardship, not afraid of death, and don't want money..."

"...I really don't know how such soldiers were brought out, totaling 20,000... If I really only listen to Chen Dexing's words, this person is a hero! It seems that he has been reluctant to enter the court because he has a second heart... Now most of the military officials in Jinghu in Sichuan are rebellious. If even Chen Dexing has a second heart, what will the court use to cut off their vassals? If the vassals are not cut off, how can the court raise so many arrogant soldiers and generals! In recent years, the country's cost has been supported by over-the-spanning Jack and Hebu, but there is always a limit. If you really want to print Jack and Zi on paper, the Song Dynasty will be over!"

Listening to Jia Sidao's tired tone, Liao Ying felt sour in the center, and sighed. He didn't understand why the Song Dynasty was still shaking even though he had defeated Mongolia, as if a broken sea boat had encountered a whirlwind. The court was almost as poor as beggars. The 3 million yuan he had paid to the Mongolians before was still used to pay the money from the government's sealed warehouse. Now the rewards of hundreds of thousands of soldiers from Jinghu, Sichuan, and Lianghuai have not yet been settled. The government warehouses in various places are also extremely deficient. Especially in Jinghu, the local government warehouses in Sichuan are empty, and the property on the books has long disappeared! They were all misappropriated by the prefect who had soldiers and the prefects. These martial artists are like the Tang Ji vassal states!

The military forces in the hands of the court, namely the direct troops under the Palace Front Division, the Guard Infantry Division, and the Guard Horse Division, were too corrupt. If they were not strictly rectified, they would not be able to go to the battlefield. It would be a bit difficult to use them to shock the Jinghu Lake. Therefore, the court could only count on the obedient Lu Wende and Xia Gui to use their power to oppress the upstream military heads, and at the same time to speed up the training of the Palace Front Division. The Pili Navy brought by Chen Dexing had long been in the eyes of Jia Sidao, and wanted to become the son-in-law of Chen Dexing and then take it under the jurisdiction of the Palace Front Division. With such elite troops as the foundation, it should be easy to train the Palace Front Division into a strong brigade.

But no one expected that the Pili Navy would become a private soldier that Chen Dexing could completely control! This army was only established for more than a year or less than two years, so why was it firmly controlled by Chen Dexing?

Liao Yingzhong took a deep breath: "My husband, why not let Chen Junzhi go to Yangzhou to persuade Chen Dexing... Chen Junzhi's eldest son has already been engaged to his husband's niece. He is the husband's person. If Chen Dexing regains the princess again, he will definitely have a cool umbrella in the future..."

Liang Chongru, who was standing beside him, smiled sneered when he heard this.

"Yifu!" Jia Sidao frowned and looked at Liang Chongru who was smiling but didn't say anything, "You might as well say anything!"

Liang Chongru said coldly: "My husband, Chen Dexing is a genius with the wisdom of Han Gao and the courage of a king. If he were born in the same dynasty as Yizu in the Later Zhou Dynasty, Chen Qiao would not know who would be the main force..."

"Liang Yifu!" Jia Sidao glared at him fiercely, "Now it is not the chaotic world of the Five Dynasties!"

Liang Chongru smiled: "The Northern Capture of the Southern Han Dynasty is not as good as the Five Dynasties. It is somewhat similar to the Southern and Northern Dynasties... The Northern Dynasties included Qin, Wei, Qi and Zhou, and Liu Jinu in the Southern Dynasties, Xiao Daocheng and Chen Xianba!"

"Liang Yifu, you are talking nonsense!" Liao Yingzhong slapped the table and poked Liang Chongru with his fingers: "Do you want the court to harm the heroes and destroy the Great Wall yourself?"

Liang Chongru looked calm and said coldly: "Mr. Qunyu, don't forget the way of his ancestors' command of generals! In the 300th year of the Song Dynasty, when did there have so many vassal states? When did there have such arrogant military officials? Such vassal ministers are heroes. How can the court not guard against it?"

Jia Sidao coughed, interrupting the two of them: "Yi Fu. How do you think you should be prepared? Are you going to deceive Chen Dexing into the industry and punish him?"

"Chen Dexing is a hero, how can he punish him?" Liang Chongru smiled. "The princess who promised him to seize his military power with wealth is the best strategy. The subordinates thought that he could continue to implement it, but they had to recruit him into the capital as soon as possible, seize his military power, and put him under house arrest. At the same time, he would give him marriage and give him an official title with the princess... This matter must be implemented as soon as possible to avoid long nights and dreams!"

Jia Sidao shook his head: "Where is the 20,000 Pili Navy? Chen Dexing has already won his allegiance. I am afraid that it can be mobilized freely without a commander. This military power cannot be taken away by a single edict."

"This matter is easy." Liang Chongru smiled, "Chen Dexing must control military power with his minions, and his minions are headed by 22 brothers from Qionghualou. The grandfather can order Chen Dexing to bring 3,000 troops into the court to show victory. The commanders of the Pili Navy, the generals and generals accompany him, leaving Zhang Shijie alone to stay. When Chen Dexing and others arrive, they will immediately issue an order to transfer their official positions and avoid their military power without harming the harmony. At the same time, let Lu Shihu and Zhang Shijie take charge of the Pili Navy together, waiting for the imperial court to be organized..."

Liang Chongru's method was to "catch all the core officers of the Pili Navy in one place", not to kill them, but to raise them with nameless official positions. Then, officers from Zhang Shijie, who were not Chen Dexing's direct line, and Lu Shihu, who were the direct line of Chen Dexing, took control of military power, and further purged the Chen group's troops. After completely eliminating Chen Dexing's power, they would break up the army and spread it into the army under the jurisdiction of the Hall Front Office to enhance the combat effectiveness of the troops in front of the Hall.

"This method..." Jia Sidao weighed it for a moment, nodded, as if he was talking to himself, "It's a little extra, it's a little extra. With a princess to accompany you, you will be rich and prosperous all your life, what else does Chen Dexing want to do?"

...

Mongolia, Jinlianchuan, southern desert.

Kublai Khan rode his horse up the high slope and stared at the boundless grasslands in the northwest direction.

At the end of the grassland is the Gobi Desert, and after passing through the desert is the headquarters of Mongolia. There is also a Mongolian Khan there, who was elected by the Curry Conference based on the Mongolian ancestral system - Alibuge Khan!

At the Currytai Conference, Alibuge had already conveyed orders to the Mongolian clan kings, asking them to send troops to participate in the war against the pseudo-Khan Kublai Khan. The army will complete the assembly in the summer, and when the horse is fat in the autumn, they will rush their troops to the east and attack Yanjing!

According to Kublai Khan's inside report in Helin, an army of more than 100,000 people will gather under the banner of Alibuge to defeat his own pseudo-khan who broke the rules.

To block the 100,000 Mongolian army, Semu army, Kublai Khan estimated that at least 150,000 Mongolian army, Hanhou, would have to mobilize at least 150,000 Mongolian cavalry, of which the Mongolian cavalry should not be less than 50,000. This is almost all the Mongolian cavalry that Kublai Khan could control.

As for the 30,000 households in the hands of the four kings of the Mongolian host sects (30,000 households during the Genghis Khan era, now they have reproduced several times the population), they could have become an important support for Kublai Khan. But now, because the situation is quite unclear, they choose to be neutral.

Kublai Khan knew that unless he could assemble a strong enough army to make the host kings think that they would win, they would not easily join their own side.

In a Chinese language, they will only add icing on the cake and will not help in time.

However, to mobilize the Han power to the greatest extent, you must reach a truly reliable peace with the Southern Dynasties. Otherwise, you will be put on your back and you will be chopped to death at any time!

Several horses roared over, and the first one was a young man dressed in a Han warrior, who was only sixteen or seventeen years old. Although he was tall and burly, he was not handsome, with a big cake-like face, a wide nose, and his eyes were squinting as if he could never open it. This look was seven or eight more similar to Kublai Khan. The person who came was his eldest son, Zhen Jin.

The Zhenjin Prince wanted to dismount and salute, but Kublai Khan raised his hand to stop him, and then he immediately clasped his fists: "Father Khan, is there anything wrong with you who are urgent to call me?"

Kublai Khan is now stationed in Jinlianchuan. While guarding Alibuge in the north of the Moon, he is busy contacting the Mongolian kings in the south of the Moon and the northeast. The Zhenjin prince stayed in Yanjing with his mother, Empress Chabi. Although this prince is the eldest son, he is taking on the responsibility of his youngest son to guard the stove. Hao Jing's expectations for him are indeed not unfounded.

Kublai Khan looked at his son and was silent for a moment, as if he had made up his mind with difficulty: "Real gold, do you still remember the Southern Dynasty princess I told you?"

The face of the real gold prince flushed slightly and he smiled foolishly: "Father Khan, did the Southern Dynasties officials agree to betroth the princess to me..."

Kublai Khan laughed and raised his whip to point at his son: "Look, you're so anxious... Oh, okay, just go south and ask for marriage to the Southern Dynasties. He will marry his daughter to you, but if you can't marry his daughter, go north immediately. You must live in Lin'an for a few years and wait for the old official to die before coming back."

"Ah... Father Khan, do you want your son to stay in the Southern Dynasty? Wouldn't that son not see Father Khan for a long time?" Prince Zhenjin was stunned for a moment and said to Kublai Khan with a look of surprise.
