After entering the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, the Jin people greatly relaxed their vigilance against Ye Qing and his party, and did not send people to follow them all the way, but let them enter Yingzhou City to rest, and then continue to walk north.

It is not without reason that the Jin people did this, since the sixteen states of Yanyun were ceded to Liao by Shi Jingjiao, the sixteen states of Yanyun are no longer in the hands of the rulers of the Central Plains, so now the area of the sixteen states of Yanyun is completely unclear, whether the Jin people are integrated with the local Han people, or the local Han people, and the habits and lifestyles of the Jin people.

In short, after Ye Qing and the others entered Yingzhou City, the unique rough and fierce style of the Northland jumped into view.

The mixing and matching of Jin and Han costumes has long been intermarried, and it is no longer a new thing, and even now in the sixteen states of Yanyun, it is no longer possible to distinguish who is Jin or Han.

Obviously, the Song Dynasty is too distant and ethereal for the people of the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, and the Song Court has never ruled this area, and for the people of the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, there may be some closeness in their hearts, but in fact, perhaps the Song envoys in their eyes are already foreign envoys.

When the Song Dynasty wanted to take back the sixteen states of Yanyun, just like a child who was bullied by his peers and occupied his beloved toys, when he could not get back his toys in the same equal way, he had to adopt a roundabout strategy, hoping to buy back the land that should have been the Chinese nation with money.

The result is naturally far from the hope of the Song court, and therefore it has caused the sixteen states of Yanyun to feel a sense of crisis for the Song court, so they have not been able to live the life they want and govern their own country.

Just as Ye Qing expected along the way, the Jin people and the Song people, like the Song people, adopted a laissez-faire attitude and method towards the areas close to each other across the river.

The Song people have always been prepared to be occupied by the Jin people on the Huainan East Road north of the Huai River, so their efforts in governance are not so important compared to the Song land south of the Huai River, and they are always regarded as things outside the body and picked up.

After the Northern Expedition of Longxing, although the capital of the country moved south, and thus moved to Youzhou in the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, the control of the area south of the Yellow River was also much worse than the control of the area north of the Yellow River.

Like the Song court, he may always be ready to discard these lands that were snatched from the Song court back then.

Therefore, Ye Qing went north along the Yellow River, and the Jin people he could see were all Jin people with small forces, although they were under the rule of the Jin people, but in comparison, the Jin people were much less confident than the control of the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun.

A tattered inn "received" the brightly dressed Ye Qing and other Song people, a tattered straw mat and a dark and shiny cotton quilt were all the items in a guest room.

The smell in the room is also full of stinking sweat, and even the people who can enter the room for the first time can be directly smoked.

Whether it was Dong Chao or Zhao Qi'er, they all felt a burst of surprise and admiration in their hearts for Ye Qing's unaware appearance.

It stands to reason that Ye Qing, who is accustomed to the exquisite courtyards in the south of the Yangtze River, with pavilions and fragrant flowers, should not be used to such a harsh and smelly environment.

But Ye Qing in the room was able to act like a person with nothing to do, without even looking at it, just lying directly on the quilt mixed with yellow-brown sweat stains and jet-black oiliness, and even stretched comfortably, sighing: It feels good to sleep on the kang.

After settling the others, the three of them found a random place to sit and drink in the hall on the first floor of the inn, while listening to Dong Chao's analysis of the current Jin people's control over the northern land.

South of the Yellow River, Ye Qing passed through several big cities along the way, mainly Kaifeng, Xingqing, and Jinan, which were naturally heavily guarded by the Jin people, and after these cities, whether it was Jin soldiers or onlookers of Jin blood, one out of ten was considered good.

Therefore, now this territory south of the Yellow River is still under the control of the Han and Song people under the control of the Jin people, as the Jin people imitate the imperial examination of the Song people, the imperial examination of the Han people as officials, naturally became the governance concept of the Jin people.

"Now in my opinion, the focus of the Jin people is still on the Xia people, and the strength of Jingzhao Mansion is not much more than that of Jinan, Kaifeng, and Xingqing, or even more. But if we talk about the sixteen states of Yanyun at our moment, I dare not say that it is impregnable, but if the imperial court wants to take it back, I am afraid that the only way to buy it is to use the money. Dong Chao snapped his fingers and told him all about the customs and customs of the sixteen states of Yanyun.

"Isn't there too much garrison in Taiyuan Mansion? They don't care about the safety of Taiyuan Mansion? Ye Qing thought about the area around Yanmen Pass, and then opened his mouth to ask.

"Yes, but not much, compared to other Xia people, the Jin people seem to be ...... to the Tatars It seems like...... It's like we look at the gold man, can you understand? It's just that they feel that they are still a way of life that drinks blood, and they are far from being civilized. Dong Chao thought about it for a long time, and he didn't know how to describe the Jin people's views on the Tatars, so he had to use the Song people's views on the Jin people as an analogy.

"Your analogy is apt." Ye Qing smiled and sighed: "But these people we look down on have bullied us for hundreds of years. Therefore, I don't know what qualifications the court and the people have to look down on the Jin people, although the culture, system, etc. are lagging behind us, but they are also learning, and they are also learning all the culture and systems of the Great Song Dynasty with a humble attitude. ”

The more Ye Qing pondered, the more he felt that the relationship between Song and Jin now was like the relationship between Dongying and Huaxia in the previous life, not to mention.

"Is this the kind of person who doesn't dare to fight back when we are beaten, and when people don't beat us, we dare to hide in a corner that people can't hear and scold people?" Zhao Qi'er said with a smile.

"And it's still spending money to find a beating, and then you can get over it, giving people so much money every year, the court is really rich." Dong Chao also said with a smile and gloating.

Ye Qing smiled, didn't answer the words of the two people, but thought for a while and said: "You will be active in the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun in the future, Wuzhou, Fuzhou, and Ruzhou are the key points, this is the only channel that the Tatars can directly reach Youzhou." Of course, there are also Jizhou, Danzhou, and Jingzhou and Pingzhou outside the sixteen states, which are also the path of the Jin people from Shangjing to Youzhou. Think about it, and the ...... in the area of Yanmen Pass Shuozhou, Yunzhou, and Xinzhou are also the top priorities, which is also the path for the Tatars to enter the Central Plains through Yanmen Pass. I wondered, did the Jin people just care so much about the Tatars? ”

"Shaoqing, you said nine states at once, and there is also a Jingzhou, which is not a year and a half, and it can't be completed, not to mention that the Jin people are also changing a lot now, and with the relocation of the capital, the center of gravity of the deployment of troops will also change, right?" Dong Chao smiled bitterly, Ye Qing said a few words, he had to go along the Taihang Mountain and the Great Wall, and go around this area.

"It's good to be able to touch the door in three years." Ye Qing ignored the bitterness on Dong Chao's face, but after taking a sip of wine, he still said: "Of course, it's not that you are tied here and don't let you go anywhere else, you can naturally take the time to go back to Yangzhou, I estimate that in a year and a half, all the buildings will be moved to Yangzhou." ”

"Really?" As soon as Dong Chao heard about the slanting wind and drizzle building, he immediately asked excitedly with his eyes shining.

"Nonsense, when did Shaoqing lie to you?" Zhao Qi'er said angrily.

Ye Qing smiled and didn't speak, when he was talking about it just now, especially when he was fantasizing about how to attack the sixteen states of Yanyun if the Song Dynasty took the northern land and wanted to attack the sixteen states of Yanyun, Zhao Qi'er and Dong Chao had a great disagreement.

In Ye Qing's view, Dong Chao is a wild road, while Zhao Qi'er is more like a regular army.

There is nothing wrong with either of them, and no one will stick to some of the difficulties that Ye Qing adds from time to time, but the two of them have different opinions on how to deal with them.

Dong Chao started as a Kou, and took three to five thousand people to play hide-and-seek and guerrilla with the Jin people and the government all the year round, so in Dong Chao's vision, everything should be based on destroying the enemy's living forces, and should make good use of the complicated mountainous terrain of the sixteen states of Yanyun, etc., so that the Jin people will never be able to figure out which state and which city they will attack.

And Zhao Qi'er followed Yue Fei to fight with the Jin people, he did not take the lead in thinking about who attacked and defended, how to attack, and where to fight first, but thought about how to make up for the gap between the foot and the horse under the complex terrain, and how to make it difficult for the Jin people's iron cavalry to play their role.

Even if it is really possible, it is completely possible to attack by water, feint on the one hand, and really fight on the other, so that the Jin people will lose one and lose the other, and they have to slowly retreat north with the loss of the city.

The two of them each had their own reasons, and even unconsciously held the wine glass, which had been set up there as a city, and while talking on paper, their voices gradually became higher, which attracted the attention of others.

As Ye Qing knocked on the table with a crude wine glass, reminding Zhao Qi'er and Dong Chao, who were spitting, I saw a man with a mix of gold ornaments and Han costumes, holding a wine glass and slowly walking over.

After looking Ye Qing and the three of them up and down, he asked directly, "Are you from Song?" Do a business or do something? ”

"Song court envoys." Ye Qing said without hesitation.

"What? Came again to bring us silver? Didn't you hear that we were going to beat you up recently, so you're scared? It's just that the capital was moved, and it will be a matter of the future to fight you, and it will not happen until our imperial court moves the capital to stabilize. The man pulled over a stool that was about to fall apart from the side, sat next to Ye Qing with a grin, and said with a hint of sarcasm.

"Didn't you hear that we were discussing just now, how to take back the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun?" Zhao Qi'er's triangular eyes stared coldly at the other party and asked.

The person who came sneered and smiled: "Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures? Does it have anything to do with your Song Ting? When did your Song court rule? ”

"Are you Han?" Ye Qing asked.

"Yes, it's Han Chinese, it's also Jin, what's the matter? Weird, isn't it? The person who came looked at Ye Qing's calm expression, and then said: "I think it's good to measure the river for Xinjiang, if it weren't for the Yangtze River, you would also be the courtiers or people of our Jin Kingdom." ”
