April 19th, Zhenchuan Fort, Jin Army Camp.

After two days of discussion, the Jurchens had to come up with a countermeasure. For the Jurchen generals, their goal was to unify the north, the north of Dai, and the Xijing, so no matter who had a big banner hanging on the head of the Xijing city, they would attack. Wanyan Gao and Wanyan Zonghan, as the Bojili of the Great Jin Kingdom, could not simply understand the entire situation of war as an attack. They must carefully weigh the gains and losses and strive for the Great Jin Kingdom to the greatest benefit.

Based on the strategies of the emperor and Huanglong Mansion, the Jin army entered Daibei this time to take over Xijing and replace the north, and then get all the territory of the Khitans, replacing the Great Liao Kingdom with the Great Jin Kingdom, and let the Jurchens become the rulers of the entire north. After stabilizing the north, they will go south to the Central Plains and achieve the ultimate goal of unification between China and foreign countries.

Around this goal, Daibei's strategy was to form an alliance with the Great Song Dynasty, Daxia and the Desert Fans, and eliminate the Khitans and Li Hu. Now Li Hu has joined the Song Dynasty and dragged the Great Song Dynasty into the Daibei battlefield. So how did Daibei's strategy change?

Wanyan Gao's opinion was to ask the emperor and Huanglong Mansion to suspend the attack on Xijing before the emperor issued an order. The opponent changed from Li Hu to the Song Dynasty and wanted to start a war with the most powerful Chinese in the world. The consequences were unpredictable. Wanyan Gao had no power to make this decision and did not dare to make any decisions without authorization. The current attack strategy of the Jin army was to attack Xijing and consume Li Hu while attacking Yunnei to destroy the Khitans, and at the same time formed an alliance with Daxia and Dasha. Therefore, the current attack strategy of the attack on Xijing and Jin army was not conflicted. Wanyan Zonghan, Wanyan Zongwang did not object this time, but, if you ask the emperor and Huanglong Mansion, it would take more than a month to speed up horses to gallop day and night, and the situation of the northern war

The changes are unpredictable and change rapidly. If you just wait here, it will be very unfavorable to the Jin army. There are two most unfavorable factors. One is that the rainy season on the prairie will soon arrive. If the Jin army cannot complete the attack target before the rainy season, the war will be delayed until after the rainy season. After the great victory in Dezhou, the Jin army recruited more than 60,000 Liao troops, but failed to plunder camels, horses, cattle and sheep. At this moment, the total strength of the Jin army has reached more than 300,000. If the war is delayed until the rainy season, the stock of food, grass and livestock will be seriously insufficient. Although Wanyan Yu has led his army to attack Yunnei, whether the attack will be smooth and whether it can plunder enough livestock is currently unpredictable.

Another unfavorable factor is that as the Jin army is blocked in the Daibei battlefield, it will not be able to take care of the Youyan battlefield. The Song army will occupy Youyan and then enter Daibei. The interests of both sides in Daibei are related to their respective life and death, so they must break up and fight.

In other words, starting from the overall strategy of the Great Jin Kingdom and considering the development of the northern war situation, the Jurchens must have fought with the Great Song Dynasty, which is just a matter of time sooner or later.

Since we will start a war with the Song Dynasty sooner or later, why should we wait until the situation is most unfavorable to the Jin Dynasty? Why should we be controlled by others? Of course, the Jin Dynasty must first take action first. We will first grab the Xijing, firmly control Daibei, and first control people at the disadvantages. Wanyan Gao certainly agrees with this view, but the problem is that before the emperor and Huanglong Mansion give clear answers, he would destroy the alliance without authorization and go to war with the Song Dynasty. Who can bear the blame? If this is wrong, losing one's head is a trivial matter. It would be a big deal to endanger the survival of the Jurchens.

"What if the Song Dynasty hit us first?" Wanyan Zonghan asked, "Are we not going to fight back?"

Wanyan Gao understood. Although he was very dissatisfied with Wanyan Zonghan and even resented him, he admired his talent very much. This person is indeed amazing. The Jurchens really needed him. This is probably the important reason why the emperor thought about it after his father Sagai died and let him inherit the power of Sagai.

"If the Song Dynasty beat us, we will drive them out of Xijing." Wanyan Gao said sternly.

Zong Han and Zong Wang looked at each other and smiled.

"Are you going or I going?" Zong Han asked.

"I'll go." Zong Wang stood up and turned around and left.

Zong Wang invited Yelu Nu Ge.

During the Liao and Jin peace talks, Yelu Nuge was always an envoy of the Great Liao Kingdom. From the beginning of the Jurchen rebellion to the official rejection of the title of Emperor Dalia. Yelu Nuge has been running between the two countries. After a long time, Yelu Nuge and the Jurchen people naturally had friendship. After Xiao Degong, the Prime Minister of the Northern Prefecture and the Zhongjing left behind, passed away last year, he succeeded the Zhongjing left behind, but immediately fell into the Jin army. He was very clear about the situation in the Liao Kingdom. He knew that the Khitan people were no longer majestic. The northern world was the Jurchen land. So he weighed it again and again and surrendered.

Zong Wang briefly explained the current situation of the war and then asked him if he had any good ways to take down Xijing.

Brother Yelu Nu dared not speak nonsense and said a few perfunctory words.

"From my understanding of Li Hu, his return to the Song Dynasty was purely a temporary solution." Zong Wang said, "Our people learned in Yanjing that he and Yelu Chun have always maintained close contact, and the two intend to achieve a three-point pattern in Liaodong. Now that Li Hu has joined the Song Dynasty, Yelu Chun wants to surrender to the Song Dynasty as his vassals, probably they want to destroy our alliance with the Song Dynasty. Once we turn against the Song Dynasty, Li Hu and Yelu Chun will have a chance."

Brother Yelu Nu didn't understand and didn't know what Zong Wang meant.

"According to the news we have received, the Song army has not yet attacked Yanjing, so I think the Song army has not entered Xijing yet. The Song Dynasty has just recovered Xijing in name only." Zong Wang continued, "If we want to conquer Xijing, this is the best opportunity, but Li Hu held the battle flag of the Song Dynasty. If we attack, we would betray the alliance and go to war with the Song Dynasty. Therefore, we hope that Li Hu can take the initiative to attack."

Brother Yelu Nu understood a little.

The Jurchens had not even handled Daibei yet, so they dared to go to war with the Song Dynasty. However, the Jurchens did not take Daibei down and would not be the opponent of the Song Dynasty in the future, so they were in a dilemma. So they came up with an idea and asked Li Hu to start a war on their own initiative, so the Song Dynasty would first betray the alliance. The Jurchens defeated Li Hu, took Xijing, and captured the mountain. If the Song people came to question the matter, the Jurchens would have reasons. The Song people were in trouble, and the two sides would have the possibility of negotiations. The longer the negotiations were delayed, the stronger the Jurchens would have control over Daibei. When the Jurchens stabilized Daibei, they would have confidence to go to war with the Song Dynasty.

"The people of the Song Dynasty have not yet conquered Yanjing, and we still have time. This is indeed a good idea." Brother Yelu Nu flattered and flattered Zong Wang a few times.

"Will Li Hu take the initiative to attack?" Zong Wang asked.

Of course not, Li Hu is not a fool. As long as he drags the Song people to conquer Yanjing and mobilizes troops to move westward, the Jurchens will never have the chance to conquer Xijing again.

"Since he doesn't dare to attack, then we will force him to attack." Zong Wang said with a smile.

"What's the trick?"

"You have a good relationship with Yelu Chun. I heard that you are also Princess Changle's teacher." Zong Wang said, "Princess Changle is Yelu Chun's daughter, and now is Li Hu's wife. If you go to surrender, will Li Hu take the initiative to attack?"

Brother Yelu Nu's heartbeat suddenly became fierce and almost suffocated. He quickly opened the warehouse and released grain, which greatly relieved the people's panic.

With the solid backing of the Song Dynasty, even if the Jurchens and the Dangxiang people attacked, the people were not afraid, because the Celestial Empire would not abandon them, and the Celestial Empire would soon come to support. At the same time, good news spread one after another in Datong and quickly spread to surrounding prefectures and counties. The food that the Song Dynasty aided the mountain had passed through Ningwuguang and could be transported to Datong in a few days. The Song army conquered Yanjing and was recovering the seven states in the front of the mountain. The main army of the Song Dynasty was about to enter Juyongguan.

The price of grain was knocked back to its original form within one day, and the prices of other items fell rapidly.

The people were excited to return to the Celestial Empire, and the firecrackers of celebration continued for days. People who were full of infinite longing for the future no longer worried about their stomachs. Their attention began to turn to defend their families and the young and middle-aged people began to actively join the army, while more people flocked to government agencies at all levels to actively join the grain shooting army and transport food and supplies to the soldiers on the front line.

The entire mountain behind was shrouded in people's joyful laughter and beautiful hope for the future. Fear disappeared and war was no longer terrible. The Han people behind the mountain were willing to fight for the Heavenly Kingdom and for their homeland.

Li Hu's decision-making took effect, and the officials of Hulie Mansion and generals of each army admired their commander. Whenever the rebel army reached a critical moment, Li Hu could turn the tide with his magical power.

The people were stabilized and the army was stabilized, but the situation did not improve at all.

At the front line of killing Hukou and Zhenchuan Fort, the two armies confronted each other and a war was about to break out.

In Shuotouzhai, King Chage of Jin from Daxia commanded the army to launch a fierce attack. Zhang Guanyu and his soldiers fought bloody battles and refused to retreat. Zhang Guanyu knew that there were no reinforcements and no way out, so he took the initiative and guarded the pass at all costs.

At the Yehuling Mountains in Fengsheng Prefecture, the Taoshan Line, Wanyan Zongxiong, Wanyan Zongbi (Jin Wushu), and Wanyan Zongfu Army continue to increase. I don’t know whether these troops came from Zhongjing support or were captured by the Liao army on the battlefield in Dezhou. In short, the Jurchens once again aimed the attack direction at Fengsheng Prefecture and Juyong Pass, which is a very headache. Considering the lack of troops in the Datong defense line, Li Hu transferred the Heishan Army in Gaohao. Now the only ones stationed in Fengsheng Prefecture are Hou Ge's Feiyun Army and Zhang Gao'er's Yan Wang Army. After more than 20 days of fighting last time, they suffered heavy losses and have not been replenished so far, and the troops are also seriously insufficient.

On this day, Li Hu invited Geng Shouzhong to Hulie's Mansion.
