Xia Jinwu's expedition to the Western Liao Dynasty in the west can bring back a lot of good news.

In addition to the deserts and Gobi, there are too many snow-capped mountains and river valley pastures in the Western Regions, which are very suitable for herders to move to.

We must not just get the Liao nobles who were chased for thousands of miles away just because the Xixia was blocking the middle.

There is saltpeter in the Gobi Desert in the Western Regions, but these people don’t know how to build artillery at all.

The weak Liao Kingdom can also dominate the remnants of the Jin Dynasty. Wherever the troops of the Jin Dynasty went, the locals descended on the wind and the territory was unimaginable.

More importantly, Khwarezm, which goes westward, is not strong, but is very rich.

Not only are there sweat and blood BMWs, but there are also a lot of gold and silver.

Xia Jinwu believed that the Jin Kingdom should first expedition the west and then the south. The western expedition was much easier than the southern expedition. Although the weak Jiangnan of the Song Dynasty was rich, the river valleys were crisscrossing and were not suitable for large cavalry corps to fight, so the western expedition was different.

Seize horses, dig saltpeter mines, develop firearms, and practice firearm tactics in actual combat.

Everything is well prepared, and then the decisive battle with Shandong Li Jing and the battle goes down.

Xia Jinwu talked freely, and listened to the generals, bureaucrats and nobles of Jin Dynasty such as Wanyan Zongwang and Wanyan Zonghan were fascinated by the fact that they seemed to have forgotten that in the past, Li Jing suggested that they withdraw their troops to fight the west and not attack the Zhao royal family.

It is precisely because of this suggestion that the Wanyan Zongwang School Xia Jinwu's confidence in the Western Expedition.

Just when I was drunk.

In an emergency report from Liaodong in 800 miles, the Song army landed on the coastlines of the two wings of the Liaohekou.

He won Xingcheng in one fell swoop.

This battle report immediately rushed all the joy away.

Wanyan Zongwang immediately tore the battle report to pieces.

He was still dispatching troops and preparing to collect Liaodong ships and attack Dengzhou. The Song people actually came first.

How come it came so quickly?

Wanyan Zongwang, Wanyan Zonghan and Xia Jinwu mobilized the cavalry from Yanjing, pulled up the newly cast artillery and the artillery pulled back by Xia Jinwu, and rushed to the Bohai Bay to prepare to support the Jin army on the Liaohe Plain.

I just left Yanjing City not far.

The Jin Kingdom was equipped with the 800-li expedition.

"Reported, the fourth prince, Liaoyang fell, Zong Ze, Zhong Yanhong, Chen Renjun and others divided into three groups, followed the Liaohe River and captured Liaoyang!"

Is Liaoyang occupied?

Wanyan Zonghan was crazy, and his eldest son was in Liaoyang and organized the harvest of soybeans and sorghum from the Liaohe Plain.

Reserve food for people to spend the winter.

"Where is my son? There is news!"

"It is said that after the Song people occupied Liaoyang, they launched a massacre of our Jin people. All the Jurchen costumes and headdresses were spared. According to the feedback from the cavalry, Xingcheng City Wall, Liaoyang City Wall, and the city gate were all destroyed by artillery fire. The heads of the people were placed in the two Chinese characters of revenge at the city gate!"

"With the weak Song Barbarian, how dare I bully my Great Jin Kingdom like this!"

Wanyan Zonghan pulled out the sword on his body and slashed the messenger with one knife.

Wanyan Zonghan behind him, Xia Jinwu looked gloomy.

They knew that the messenger did not tell lies and that the losses from Liaodong would continue to be sent one after another.

Sure enough, the following is bad news.

In addition to Xingcheng, Liaodong and Gaizhou, revenge was also raided by the Song army.

The Song army not only cut grass valley against the people of the city's defenders, but also did not let go of the outside of the city.

The smart and smart man escaped on a horse at the first time, and it was difficult for the elderly and weak to escape from falling.

Zong Ze and Zhong Yanhong captured Liaoyang, killed his eldest son Wanyan Shuyema and Wanyan Tata, the son of Jin Prime Minister Wanyan Xiyin, and hung their heads on the Liaoyang city wall.

The cavalry entered the city, and there was no one. In the city, the royal family's personal copy and official copy were all missing. The ground was covered with the corpses of the royal family and the officials' personal copy assigned to Wanyan Zongwang.

This made Wanyan Zonghan crazy.

"Zong Ze's old man, Zhong Yanhong, Li Jing's son, don't take revenge, and don't swear to do anything for someone!"

But the battle report continued to come. Not to mention Wanyan Zonghan, even Wanyan Zongwang was so angry.

The Song army used the head of the Jin people outside Liaoyang City to put out a line of Chinese characters, and called Wanyan Zongwang. Wanyan Zonghan immediately released Zhao Ji and Zhao Huan, otherwise Liaodong would have today every year!

What made the two feel even more shameful was that after the Song and Jin captured Liaoyang, only one-third of the troops were sent to escort food and grass to continue returning.

The rest of the troops advanced northward and headed towards the northeast.

Could it be that their purpose is not to harass and robbery, but to go straight to Beijing?

"The barbarians of the Southern Song Dynasty bullyed people too much, thinking that no one in the Jin army called me?"

Historically, it was not just the Liao Kingdom that occupied the Northeast Plain. When history went up, it was Goguryeo.

The Sui Dynasty conquered Goguryeo three times, causing domestic complaints and dynasties to change.

During the Tang Dynasty, the four expeditions of Goguryeo, each time they mobilized heavy troops, they seemed to be victorious, but in fact they returned in vain.

I don’t know that the unethical smoker offered a plan to the Tang Dynasty, which was to pay the bill regularly, harass and disrupt Goguryeo’s agricultural and animal husbandry production.

It was actually adopted by the Tang Dynasty.

So a few years later, the battle between the Tang Dynasty and Goguryeo was formed.

The Song army's tactic of crossing the sea to harass the sea was very deadly, which was equivalent to directly abolishing the Liaohe Plain and the Liaodong Peninsula.

It is precisely because of this that Wanyan Zongwang and Wanyan Zonghan immediately led their troops from Yanjing.

Unexpectedly, the Song army, who had taken advantage of the attack, dared to divide their troops north, thinking that tens of thousands of people could capture me Shangjing, rescue Zhao Ji and Zhao Huan, and have a dream of spring and autumn. This is provoking all the warriors of the Great Jin Dynasty.

Who gave Song Jun the courage?

"It is said that my general will cut off Zhao Ji's son Zhao Shu and send the head to Jinan Prefecture!"

"Wait, let's take a look at the losses in Liaodong first! If Zong Ze, Li Jing, and Zhong Yanhong can be destroyed, wouldn't it be much happier than venting hatred on Zhao Shu?"

When Wanyan Zongwang heard Wanyan Zonghan's roar, reason defeated his emotions in the end.

This battle was too strange. He had expected that the Song army would use the navy to fight across the sea.

I also had the idea of ​​attacking Dengzhou across the sea.

He thought it would be at least one to two years of preparation, but he never expected that this day would come so quickly.

You should know that in the past, Zhao Ji visited Goryeo, it took only three years to build two Shenzhou boats.

Even if Li Jing'er could build a ship that travels thousands of miles a day, he would not have built such a fleet in less than a year.

How to do it?

"What the second prince said is reasonable. The Song army invaded our Jin Kingdom this time, which is a great mistake. The Liaohe Plain is my Great Jin granary, so we must not lose anything!"

Xia Jinwu rarely interrupts and expresses his opinion.

Wanyan Zonghan knew that the Jin Dynasty was bitter and cold, and the Bohai Bay was relatively frost-free for a shorter time than the Wanyan family living in Huining Prefecture and other places, and was much richer. The Liaoxi Corridor and the Liaodong Peninsula were equivalent to the Qilian Mountains and Yanzhi Mountains of the Shanyu in the past.

The royal family of the Jin Dynasty wanted to reach out to the Liaohe Plain and the Liaodong Peninsula.

Losing my Yanzhi Mountains will make my women look colorless. Losing my Qilian Mountains will make my animals unable to survive.

Not to mention the attacks of the Song army every month, even if it attacks every year, the Great Jin Kingdom could not stand it.

"Jinwu, after leaving Yuguan, you will immediately lead the troops to dispatch troops to the northwest. If there are deserters and horses in Xingcheng and other places or reinforcements in the south, immediately gather them."

, "Here!"

After Wanyan Zongwang, Wanyan Zonghan and Xia Jinwu divided the troops, they went day and night, and rushed to the entrance of the Liaohe River with all their might.

Even Xingcheng did not stay.

But to their disappointment, the Song army had already boarded the ship and set off with all the food, forage and prisoners collected from the Liaohe Plain this year.

Along the Liao River to Liaoyang, the prosperity of the past ended, and everywhere was like the scene of the Jin army entering the Song Dynasty.

Destroyed walls burned by fire can be seen everywhere.
