"For the sake of the present plan, the pseudo-country has become a big problem!"

Zhao Pu once attacked Huainan as the chief secretary of Zhao Kuangyin, and he was quite familiar with the Southern Tang Dynasty.

Huangfu Hui of the Southern Tang Dynasty and Liu Renzhan of Shouzhou were not Yiyou. Moreover, although the troops and horses of the Southern Tang Dynasty were not as strong as those of the imperial guards, they were extremely resilient. When they met famous generals, they would turn defeat into victory.

Therefore, after the Southern Tang Imperial Army was eliminated, Guo Rong stopped moving south, and the land in the south of the Yangtze River was not so easy to capture.

But the city of Jinling was captured with just tens of thousands of troops. The military power of the puppet country was even stronger than that of the Southern Tang Dynasty, which was not a good thing for the court.

"Wei Chen heard that when the puppet country conquered Jinling City, it was not the trencher we used in Yangzhou City before, but a new type of weapon with greater power and longer range!"

Zhao Pu said with concern: "The Wu Yue Kingdom has not experienced any war for a long time, and I heard that most of the navy had been destroyed, so I am afraid that it would not escape the worries of destroying the country!"

"If it weren't for the navy, I would have gone south long ago!" Zhao Kuangyin said unwillingly:

"It was because of the power of weapons that the pseudo-nation country sneaked into Jinling City. If it were a real sword and a gun, it might not be able to defeat Jiangnan."

"It seems that Li Jia is obsessed with military weapons. She had a catapult cart not long ago, and now she has new military weapons. It's really not to be underestimated!"

Although Zhao Kuangyin said relaxed, he had already regarded the Tang Kingdom as the enemy of his life and was above the Khitan.

"Let Murong Yanzhao closely monitor the Jiangling area, the Hanyang Army and the Wuwei Army, and also monitor it day and night, and do not be careless!"

Zhao Kuangyin was quite anxious at this time. According to his previous plan, he first went south and then north, easy and then difficult. But now, the south is almost unified, and the huge north is in ruins and is under the enemy from both sides. It is really uncomfortable.

Originally, he was planning to use Bashu's financial resources to supplement the predicament of the Central Plains, but who knew that stealing chickens would not lead to a loss of rice, and the 40,000 army was in a difficult situation again.

This position of emperor is really difficult.

If Guo Rong was there, he would probably be at ease. After all, he had been in war for many years and had already become famous all over the world, and the Khitans did not dare to offend the border.

The Eastern Han Dynasty has been ready to move in recent years, and it is so disgusting.

What is embarrassing is that the treasury of the court is empty and even the use of troops requires hesitation and waiting.

"I heard that the puppet country has sent people to Kuizhou to support Meng Chang. It is not scary for the rioters to the people, but the puppet soldiers should not be underestimated. The imperial guards are in danger!" Zhao Pu sighed and said in a deep voice:

"Our movement alone may not be effective. Your Majesty asked the State of Wu and Yue to move troops, which would consume the energy of the pseudo-nation country and avoid the obsolete army."

"At present, this is the only way!" Zhao Kuangyin felt quite uncomfortable. He had no money. In the future, there would be no offerings from Jiangnan. How should he fill such a big gap between the imperial court and the inner treasury?

...

Jinyang, Shanxi, within the Northern Han court.

Because the Northern Han Dynasty is located in Hedong, it is also called the Eastern Han Dynasty.

Many people have written to the letter to attack the Central Plains recently.

People showed various proofs to tell the incompetence of the Central Plains and the current embarrassment. Everyone was very excited. It seemed that after a few months, the Central Plains had become more and more vulnerable.

I seemed to have forgotten the incident of being beaten last year.

Why are the Northern Han keen on going south and even if he is beaten every year, he will not have a memory?

One word, poor.

Two words, hatred.

Logically speaking, since the fall of the Tang Dynasty, the poorest and worst place in the world was the Central Plains. Some other small countries, such as Wu and Yue, Southern Tang, Southern Han and even Nanping, were extremely rich countries, but the Northern Han were exceptions, which were too poor.

Li Keyong, a native of Shatuo, was appointed King of Jin, and relied on Hedong to fight against Zhu Wen. Then Li Cunxu unified Northern China and established the Later Tang Dynasty.

Later, the Later Jin and the Later Han all occupied the Central Plains and swept the world with a corner of the land. It was too hard for Hedong.

Later, after the establishment of the Later Zhou Dynasty, they went north to harass the people every day and plundered the people from time to time. When the Northern Han Dynasty destroyed the country, the population was only 500,000, which was not as good as Nanping.

In the Northern Han Dynasty, it can be said that there is no land, no money, no money, and no money. The Prime Minister of the Northern Han Dynasty had a monthly salary of only 100 guan of copper coins, and his life was tight. The military governor was even worse, only 30 guan of copper coins, what was enough for? Therefore, the administration of the Northern Han Dynasty was very dark, and from the top down, many people were making money, and the people were suffering.

Therefore, the Northern Han went south mainly to plunder the people and wealth, and it was too poor.

Secondly, the resentment in Hedong and the Central Plains was too deep; the Northern Han and Zhou dynasties also had too deep resentment.

Emperor Taizu of Zhou, Guo Wei, rebelled and destroyed the Han Dynasty; and the founding emperor of the Northern Han Kingdom was the younger brother of Emperor Gaozu of the Later Han Dynasty. The Lord of the Northern Han Dynasty always believed that it was the Guo family who had taken over the Liu family's country, which was completely a feud.

The Northern Han Kingdom called himself "nephew emperor" to the Great Liao Dynasty and sought asylum from the Liao Kingdom. The camp they stood was completely hostile. In addition, there were more old hatreds: the Battle of Gaoping when Guo Rong ascended the throne, the Northern Han Kingdom always supported the hostile actions of Shu, Southern Tang and others... and the hatred that fought between the two sides over the years.

The Northern Song Dynasty was established, so this hatred was naturally inherited.

"In this way, the Central Plains are now unable to move, and there is a great opportunity to officially use troops?" Liu Jun said with a smile.

"That's true!" At this time, a man with a big waist stood up.

"Now is the best time for us to use military service!"

Liu Jun looked into his eyes and saw Yang Ye's figure, he felt a little confident in his heart, and his eyes signaled him to continue speaking.

After being encouraged, Yang Ye was excited and continued: "Now, in the south of Song State, I heard that there is a Tang State that has destroyed Chu State and Jiangnan, which is dominating Jiangnan and making great achievements. We can unite together to attack Song State from north to south and then divide the Central Plains equally."

"Splitting the Central Plains equally? Since the Tang Kingdom can destroy several countries, it is naturally not to be underestimated. What should I do if I turn the enemy to the top at that time?" someone retorted.

"Hahaha, there are no horses in the south. When the Central Plains is obtained, how can the Southern people be our opponent!"

Yang Ye raised his chest and said proudly:

"Even if we have few soldiers, we can invite the Khitans to go south at that time. What are the southerners afraid of? Hedong, a place of victory, sending troops southward is hard to stop tens of thousands of men. Even if the Tang State has hundreds of thousands of infantry, it is just a group of land-shattered dogs in front of our cavalry in the north, and no matter how many there are, it is useless."

"The Khitan cavalry is in the world, and there are few horses in the south. Then we will take it together with them. There will be no place for the southerners to occupy the vast Central Plains."

"Also, the Khitans are not resistant to summer heat and only seek money. They give up some money to exchange for the huge Central Plains. This is a non-standard and cost-effective transaction."

"Please think twice!"

As he said that, Yang Ye bowed, with a sincere look on his face.

Liu Jun hesitated.
