After the Han army generals sent to the outer islands with their families and the elderly and weak to spend the winter, Suzhou had accumulated abundant winter food. The banquet for the envoys of the Jin Kingdom was also particularly rich. Not only were there wine and meat, but also military soldiers performed singing and dancing to cheer them up.

As a symbol of balancing the Jurchen power, Zhao Xingde sat on his right head, facing Wanyan Zongbi, and Han Ningshuang sat in the middle. Wanyan Zongbi sat at the bottom of the head, Xie Lihu, and other Jin generals. They were drunk, with their stomachs shy, and took pleasure in their joy, staggeringly singing and dancing in the table. The two of them cooperated with each other, one was excited, and the other was echoed, with their faces sometimes excited, sometimes frowning, and sometimes dancing, and the atmosphere was so lively.

When the Emperor of Liao was drunk at the Fish Head Banquet, he ordered the heads of the Jurchen tribes to dance and cheer him up. Only Wanyan Aguda insisted on refusing to perform, and from then on he planted the intention of rebelling against Liao. However, when friends were having a banquet, the Jurchens were famous for singing and dancing at the banquet. Zhao Xingde could not understand the Jurchens. In his eyes, it was somewhat similar to the Northeast Errenzhuan in later generations, full of bold and humorous meaning. The performances of the Han army soldiers were much stronger, from the naked man's wrestling to the hand-to-hand attacks between the table, and the battle formations were only a slight difference, which caused the Han generals to cheer. However, Wanyan Zongbing kept talking to Han Ningshuang.

"When I went south, my father promised that if the Han army joined forces with me to attack Liaoyang, all the Hanmen in Liaoyang City would be used by the Han army."

Feeling the other party's eyes burning, Han Ningshuang frowned and said in a deep voice: "Our army has a small force and insufficient food and grass. I'm afraid we can only send thousands of elite troops." This is the result of her discussion with Zhao Xingde and Wang Xuansu. Before the decisive victory of the Liao and Jin Kingdoms, the main force of the Han army should not rashly enter the battlefield in advance. We must wait until the Liao and Jin armies are both defeated and suffer the possibility of capturing Liaoyang. In this way, the time to send troops is extremely important.

"Don't mess with me," Wanyan Zongbi's face darkened slightly, and he slapped the cup on the table. "It is clear that the people in Guannan, Suzhou are strong and the horses are strong, and the food and grass are enough."

"Don't look at the surface of being glamorous. Our Military Commission actually lacks enough food and grass, so we can disperse it and eat. As for what the Fourth Prince saw, it was just to entertain your army, and he tried his best to supply it." Wang Xuansu raised his glass and smiled, "I hope the Fourth Prince will be more considerate, or maybe the Jin Kingdom supports us some food and grass?" Wang Xuansu's expression was quite ashamed. Before Wanyan Zongbi could retort, he patted his head and said, "Oh, during the winter, there are food and grass everywhere, so let's raise it ourselves."

Wanyan Zongbi's eyes were full of suspicion. In just about half a year, the Han army not only expanded its army drastically, but also took in hundreds of thousands of Han people. Most of the crops that these people originally planted were abandoned. Although the Han army was also a local snake that had been entrenched in Liaodong for decades, the food and grass this year were not tense, but rather strange. "Maybe, it was indeed a bluff." Wanyan Zongbi remembered Mr. Han Da's words: "The eldest lady was originally quite friendly to the Wanyan tribe, but was thriving by a group of ambitious people.

The people were surrounded by the people. These people tried to seize Liaoyang and compete with the Great Jin Kingdom in Liaodong. For the current plan, if the Fourth Prince had a good thing with Miss Han, the two families would become one, and the disaster would be eliminated. Otherwise, when fighting with the Liao Kingdom, they had to be wary of the Suzhou army from behind. Or, instead of raising snakes, they would be better off first. If the Fourth Prince had not been kind and had a rare wise attitude, Han would not have said these courageous words."

A cloud of suspicion rose in Wanyan Zongbi's heart, and he turned his wine glass in his hand and said with a smile: "When it comes to scattering and eating, I want to congratulate Ningshuang. Since the Han army's uprising, it has almost expanded ten times. Now, 50,000 or 60,000 soldiers have been following your order."

Hearing the temptation in his words, Han Ningshuang said slowly: "My tribe members just gathered together in a hurry to resist the brutal Liao people."

Xu Detai also said to the point: "That's right, it's not as good as the Jurchen army's long-term war, so our army needs to train more before going to the battlefield."

Zhao Xingde felt a little funny when he saw this scene. He had already experienced the temper of the Han army's temper that he would rather die than suffer losses if he didn't get into the air. Han Ningshuang said again: "If you have to take care of the meals and resettlement of the 50,000 or 60,000 tribesmen, you have been busy for half a year. Each battalion and village can be scattered and eaten, and it will probably take a month to gather together. If General Zhao hadn't helped us conquer Kaizhou, he wouldn't have enough food and grass for the winter." Speaking of this, she raised her wine glass and smiled at Zhao Xingde, "Thank you Mr. Zhao."

"Marantor, don't want to see the outside world for your own business." Zhao Xingde gave in, raised his wine glass and drank it all. Han Ningshuang smiled slightly, raised his glass and drank it, but she didn't drink it all. Every time she had such a feast, she was extremely restrained and did not drink as loudly as other generals. Zhao Xingde even suspected that she ate less than usual because she wanted to talk to her subordinates. She didn't drink much, but a blush appeared on her cheeks, as if she was unable to drink.

Wanyan Zongbi saw her thanking Zhao Xingde, and a jealousy surged in his heart. He snatched the words: "It is difficult for the army to concentrate in a hurry, thousands of elite soldiers are OK. But Ningshuang, you must personally command the elite soldiers to go north to Liaoyang first. When the Han people in the city see your flag, there will definitely be someone to raise trouble. Even if they are not good, they will not be willing to help Liaogou defend the city." He was thinking in his heart that as long as Han Ningshuang goes north to Liaoyang. If he is afraid that Suzhou and Kaizhou's Han army will be capricious, he simply detained her in the Jurchen army. According to the rules of the Jurchen robbing brides, he emphasized, "If not, the Han people in Liaoyang City will help Liaogou defend the city. Once the city is broken, we will turn them into slaves and reward the soldiers who have made contributions."

Han Ningshuang guessed his intention, her eyes were slightly cold. Wang Xuansu and Xu Detai heard the threatening in Wanyan Zongbi's tone, and the smile on her face became much stiffer. Zhao Xingde sighed slightly in his heart. Liaoyang even made the entire Liaodong beside the Jin Kingdom. The Jin Kingdom would never allow the Han army to remain independent. The limited cooperation at present depends on the size of the threat from the Liao Kingdom, and it is not surprising that stabbing the knife in the back. The day of showdown between the two sides will come sooner or later.

The changes that took place during the table were just a blink of an eye, and the generals below were still unaware of it, and they were happily eating and drinking. At this time, a general from Jin Kingdom drank too much, staggered and picked up the wine glass and walked to Xiong Renyue. Suddenly, he threw the wine glass and punched him. Xiong Renyue also drank a lot, grabbed his wrist with his right hand and kicked his left leg under his knee. The Jin Kingdom general fell on the table with a bang, making a mess. He had just gotten up, and he roared and pounced on him. The two of them started fighting with one punch and one punch.

Such drunken fights are very common in the Jurchen tribes, and the Han people are used to them. Other Jin generals did not come forward to help, and formed a circle with the Han generals to cheer loudly. The crackling sound of punches and kicks slamming the table and cheering, the Jurchen and Chinese cursing each other, and the central army tent was noisy as if a boiling oil pan.

Suddenly, a "bang" slapped the table, which made most of the still sober Han army generals quiet down and looked at the top together. Marshal Han covered Han Shuang's face and said in a deep voice: "What kind of morality is the fight in front of the army? Come on, tie them up with cow tendons, and let go when you wake up!" This is the way for the Jurchens to deal with drunken men, and the generals of the Jin Dynasty were very familiar with. The Han army did not dare to disobey Han Ningshuang's military orders. Soon they found two cow tendons as thick as little fingers, tied up the generals who fought each other and threw them next to the military tent. With such a fuss, everyone's drunkenness was defeated.

"These two rash men were defeated and the banquet ended. Another day, they held a banquet to invite His Highness the Fourth Prince." Before Wanyan Zongbi could speak, Han Ningshuang got up and left the banquet. When the cold wind blew, the smile in her eyes suddenly became cold.

Wanyan Zongbi showed up and threatened Han Ningshuang with the Han people in Liaoyang City. He had not received a reply yet, but was interrupted by this and could only do nothing. "Since my face has been torn apart, I will mention this matter next time I meet again, and I have to ask for a result." Wanyan Zongbi looked at her back, and a hint of fierceness appeared in his eyes. Mr. Han Da's words "starting first is the best" seemed to ring in his ears again.

Wang Xuansu and Xu Detai looked at each other, with a smile and a little bitter in their eyes. Miss Han worked hard to manage the Han Military Commission, which was indeed a complete transformation than before, but to fight against the Jin soldiers, the Liao army was unable to compete with each other. Now that it is delayed for a while, the Han army's strength has increased by one point.

"I just can't hold it for a while, can I drag it for a lifetime?" Zhao Xingde shook his head in his heart.

The two drunk men were still cursing each other in Chinese and Jurchen. The dinner was dispersed with everyone's scheming. Wanyan Zongbi's chance to attack again did not come because Han Ningshuang fell ill. Since that day's dinner, she has always claimed that she had never been sick. Most Han generals guessed that this was actually a means to continue to delay the date of the troops. Over the years, Han Ningshuang commanded his subordinates to travel north and south. During the long journey, he slept in and out of the wind and snow were common. The two armies faced each other, and they had never seen her frown. If not, even if she was the only descendant of the Han family, the generals of the Han army's general's mansion would never have been able to take her as the main force, and they were all convinced.

As usual, Zhao Xingde took the sergeants from the artillery battalion to survey the terrain and position, and calculate the firing boundary and distance of the artillery position. The various cross-firing networks he arranged, accompanied by the acquisition of various practical data, are becoming increasingly complete. In Kaizhou, Jin Changtai has completed the basic training of the Fifth Garrison Battalion. Zhao Xingde plans to return to Phoenix Mountain in the near future to find an opportunity to put this musket gun team into actual combat to test the gains and losses.
