1021.Chapter 1021: The Jurchens' Decision
Originally, he swore and strongly advocated that the Jin army should go to war directly to avenge himself, but he was surprised to find that the ideal was very plump, the reality was very skinny, the Jurchens did not have the strength to win, and the Jin army was also overstretched.
He is not an ordinary person, he immediately changed his position, proposed eight strategies for Hera to enrich the country and strengthen the army, tried his best to develop Dajin's strength, and then snowed his hatred.
The very simple truth is that the tribes of the steppe are no longer restricted, but the alliances of the tribes are carried out to maximize the interests of the Jurchens, which is equivalent to drinking water to quench their thirst, but they can't care so much.
The Jin army was divided into two parts, one was in the north to deter the Song army, forming an indirect containment, and the other was to take advantage of the grassland to quickly advance westward, attack westward with light troops to occupy Heishui, and take Ganzhou, Suzhou and Shazhou, which are also rich in war horses and strategically important places, which can contain the Great Song Dynasty to digest the results of Liangzhou.
Judging from the current tactics, the Jin army can occupy the military state in the western part of Hexi, and then control the northern part of Weicheng in Zhanì Province, even if the Song army takes Xingqing and Liangzhou, the Jurchens can also occupy the strategic initiative, so that the Great Song Xing Dynasty can exhaust all its strength, and they will account for half of the fruits of victory.
Without it, the most important thing in the northwest war is to seize the resources of war horses and relieve the pressure on the flanks, the Jin army controls the northern part of the south of the river, and then takes the west of Liangzhou in the west of the river, so that Liangzhou can become a border fortress, not to mention raising horses, always under the attack of the Jin army, you will strengthen combat preparedness all day long to prevent the enemy's attack! What is a good horse pasture?
The northern part of the province is an important agricultural area in Xia, known as the south of the Yangtze River, where the Xia people's rations are mostly produced, and more than half of them are controlled by the Jin army, I am afraid that the occupied area will become a burden on the Shaanxi Road, after all, the army and the people have to eat grain.
Gao Sheng heard Zhang Qiyuan's plan, and he also pondered for a long time, and he couldn't help but agree with Gao Ming, since he couldn't go to war directly, it was undoubtedly the best choice to seize advantageous resources and terrain and create a favorable strategic situation.
The living girl was persuaded by Zhang Qiyuan to take the initiative to take on the task of attacking Shazhou, which was also the main reason for his compromise. He is not a fool, and he proposed to directly attack the submarine, but there is not much chance of victory, especially the war in the eastern part of Yanzhou is basically over, and the Jin army is facing the strength of the Song army's three camps and eight armies, and under the condition that the Song army is on the defensive, it is difficult for the Jin army to achieve heavy results.
Xiazhou, Shizhou, Longzhou and other places are no better than others, they are all tall cities built by the party members in order to cope with the attack of the Great Song Dynasty, and the terrain is quite complicated, which is not conducive to the Ma army's combat, and it will be bitten back.
After making a decision, he gave the Marshal Mansion Shangguantang on the one hand, and urgently mobilized troops and horses to prepare for various conquest matters.
"I heard that some time ago, there were two percent more caravans to the grassland than usual?" Zhang Qiyuan finally completed the big thing and cared about the trade of the grassland.
"A large part of them are caravans of the Southern Dynasties, oh, most of them are folk Hui merchants, and they can't get on the stage." The Tiande army knew that the military could not be cared for, and the north-south trade was carried out normally, and Dajin also agreed to the Song caravan to go north, provided that it obeyed Dajin's laws, did not engage in dangerous Daikin activities, and most importantly, paid heavy customs duties.
It's just that normal business not only requires taxes, but also a lot of filial piety, and the Hui Yi merchants have developed, even if they are normal trade merchants, they also carry a lot of private work, as long as they bribe the border officials and guards, it can be said that there is almost no normal trade.
"Oh, it seems a little too normal." Zhang Qiyuan said suspiciously.
Zhijun's eyelids trembled, but there was a ghost in his heart, which caravan passing by did not give him benefits, stationed in the Jin army and officials, and exploited the interests layer by layer, even if it was a broken thing that was understood from top to bottom, he was not afraid of being seen in the way.
It's just that Zhang Qiyuan is a favored minister of Lord Lang, and he is an orthodox scholar of the Southern Dynasty, it is difficult to accept Hui Yi, if he really gets the handle, I am afraid it will be very uncomfortable, and hurriedly said: "Don't worry, my lord, it is normal." β
"That couldn't be better. Keep an eye on the caravans that are trading normally. Zhang Qiyuan looked at the military with playfulness.
Zhijun is a little confused, Nima, don't stare at the Hui Yi merchants, keep an eye on the normal trade merchants, is this Master Zhang sick!
Zhang Qiyuan couldn't help but have a toothache when he saw the appearance of the military being beaten up, and said hatefully: "The envoys of the Southern Dynasty go north, what will be the best cover-up?" β
"Oh, the villain understands." Knowing the military is not a fool, he immediately understood Zhang Qiyuan's intentions, and was afraid that the envoys of the Great Song Dynasty would go north as merchants.
However, he is in the left ear and out of the right ear, and he has tried his best to make a fat difference, that is for the sake of gold and silver wealth, who has the leisure time to deliberately arrest people, unless he accidentally bumps into their hands, he can only laugh.
Then again, the Tiande army mainly relies on grazing and trade, and the filial piety of the merchants of Huiyi is in their pockets, that is, they are filial to the officials at all levels, and they have no income from their home and country.
Zhang Qiyuan was very satisfied with his military attitude, but he never imagined that this guy would be perfunctory.
While the Jin army was quietly moving, the front line of the Iron Gate Pass was quiet. Outside the city, tens of thousands of Song army horses and infantry troops are lined up in three formations, Xuanjia Yao Sun, swords are like a forest, and the military appearance is mighty.
Outside the Guancheng on the opposite side, there are also thousands of party and horse infantry troops, the momentum is majestic, and the Xia army is defeated at any time, but it also has considerable momentum.
Gao Ping looked at Wei Liluo who came out, and said lightly: "Zixuan, deal with it carefully, and return immediately if it is not right, these people can't be trusted." β
"Don't worry, with the captain pressing the formation, it's not a climate for a small night, but a big thing can be done." Feng Yuan's eyes flickered, glowing with intense conquest.
In the end, Xi Yuli decided to return to the Great Song Dynasty and hand over Baichi City and Tiemen Pass, but he only asked to ensure the safety of the lives of 30,000 officials, and he also agreed to most of the conditions to ensure the wealth and nobility of the party and nobles, and let them lead the troops to serve the dynasty.
Today, it is the date agreed by the two sides to return to obedience, the main force of the northwest camp of the former division of the Song Army Palace arrived, Gao Ping personally went into battle, and Liu Weiyong controlled the various departments in Dazhai and prepared to deal with the unforeseen situation. No one dares to guarantee that in case, tens of thousands of Xia soldiers and soldiers obviously have diehards, and once someone shouts with their arms, the consequences will be unimaginable.
"Okay, don't let the Xiyu clan wait for a long time." Gao Ping was a little impatient, Feng Yuan's caution was good, but in his opinion, Xia Jun had long been in decline, and there was no way out except for Guishun. The two armies of the northwest camp, plus the Crane Control Army, were enough to make Xi Yuli frightened.
The reason why he reminded Feng Yuan was out of contempt for the party members, not really worried about making a moth.
Feng Yuan didn't mind, didn't speak again, and rode away with twenty officials to contact Wei Liluo, who came up.
