All the core departments have always been in the hands of foreign relatives, originally Liu Zhenglong's original intention was to hand over the Han Wangqi to Yang An'er, but this guy is not angry, and he can only be handed over to Pan Yu temporarily, and in the end, this position still has to be replaced, as for what to replace, that is something that the next emperor will consider.

Announcing the abdication early, in fact, there is a deep-seated purpose, that is, to paralyze the Jin State. For a long time, Jin Guo has had spies in the country, and they are very hidden, almost in all fields. Liu Zhenglong did this to dig out the hidden enemy.

Now that the struggle of the Jin State has reached a fever pitch, the abdication of the Emperor of the Han Dynasty will give the Jin State an illusion that it will not be able to go to the Jin State in a short time.

Expedition, this expedition is not a small fight, it is a war to destroy the country, and it is necessary to destroy the Jin country in one fell swoop. The war of annihilation must be perfect, which is why Liu Zhenglong is no longer presiding over the government, and the reason why the prince is relieved to be in charge of the country.

In the Eastern Capital, the generals in the Eastern Capital all know what's going on, that is, they are about to attack the Jin Kingdom, and they are sharpening their knives one by one, and they all seem a little impatient.

It is indeed impatient, this time His Majesty is a royal expedition, it is said that the army will be divided into five routes, with a total strength of 500,000, and the Jin State will be destroyed in one fell swoop.

The sharpest artillery, the most advanced firearms, will be put into battle. The vassal legions will also take part in the battle, and this battle will be crucial for everyone.

With an army of 400,000 plus 100,000 sailors, an army of 500,000 would need three or four million men to support logistics, which is another huge expense. However, Chai Jin, who is in charge of the finance of the Han Dynasty, Liu Mingjun has long been ready to put it in place, and this time it is the Han who has poured the strength of the whole country to destroy the gold in one fell swoop.

This war was not only a military war, but also an economic war, and this economic war was in charge of Sun Sheng, the dragon of Irumo.

Originally, Gongsun Sheng was going to Yunzhou, but for the sake of the war to destroy the country, he took the initiative to apply to be in charge of economic warfare.

Economic warfare, this concept was instilled by Liu Zhenglong to Gongsun Sheng, and this Gongsun Sheng of Zhuyun Dragon will draw inferences from one another, so he is particularly competent.

Fighting an economic war, there is no doubt that the Han Dynasty occupies an absolute advantage, and this advantage is much stronger, first of all, the Han has countless wealth, and can use this money to do business with the Jin Kingdom to make the money of the Jin Kingdom. Secondly, the Jin country is short of materials, and many materials need to be imported from the Han Dynasty, this kind of trade difference is huge, and on weekdays, Gongsun Sheng wants to be very careful, so that the Jin people can't see anything wrong.

However, once the two countries go to war, then the economic war will begin, and the foreshadowing in the early stage will be used, and the Han will close the trading channel, and the Jin country, which is heavily dependent on the Han for materials, is destined to have soaring prices, boiling public resentment, and it will become more and more intense.

At this moment, Dahan has stockpiled enough materials, and there is no need to import anything from Jin Guo at all, which is the most fatal thing for Jin Guo, if you have money to buy things, at this time money is not money, and the panic in the market will be aggravated, and finally to the point where it cannot be contained.

In this battle, the Han Dynasty was not fighting in one country, but even contacted many tribes in the steppe, and at the same time, Goryeo would also participate in the war, which was equivalent to attacking the Jin State from three sides.

Goryeo in the east, although there are only 50,000 soldiers, there are still 100,000 sailors of the Han Dynasty in the east, and it is a direct threat to the rear of the Jin Guoda. The northwest is a dozen fierce grassland tribes know how to alliance, for many years the grassland tribes have been oppressed by the Jin State, not because of their combat effectiveness, but because of the lack of armor and weapons, and now with the armor and weapons provided by the Han Dynasty, the grassland tribes are here to seek revenge, of course, they are also here to plunder.

The condition of the Han Dynasty was that the grassland tribes would be allowed to plunder the Jin State and provide armor and weapons free of charge. In a word, this war of the steppe tribes is a sure win.

There is everything in the world, but there is no business that makes sure that it doesn't lose money, but the sharp-toothed Xiao Gan is to make the leaders of many tribes in the grassland believe that this is a business that is sure to make money and not lose money, and they are very willing to cooperate one by one, in order to show their sincerity, not only a large number of war horses are sent to the Han, but also the most beautiful women of the tribe are sent to the imperial capital to fill the harem.

One of the biggest traditions of the steppe tribe is that women are attached property, and in order to realize the interests of the tribe, it is normal to give women as gifts.

More than 20 tribes sent more than 30 women, on the surface it seems very simple, but there is this huge conspiracy behind this, which is the attention of a wise man in the grassland tribe, and it is obvious that they also know that the emperor of the Han Dynasty has the disease of widowhood.

The grassland tribe is also ambitious, although they have not thought of invading the Han Dynasty, but they still want to use the Great Wall as the boundary, the south belongs to the Han Dynasty, and the north belongs to the grassland tribes, and they want to bloodwash and squeeze the Jurchens of the grassland tribe for many years.

Ambition often blinds people's eyes, and hatred often makes people lose their minds. Every time the Jin State goes on an expedition, it needs to plunder the grassland tribes to replenish it, and every time it is defeated by the Han army, it will sack the grassland tribes to balance, and over time, the two sides have become a deep feud in the sea of blood, planting the seeds of hatred.

Xiao Gan, a nobleman of the Xi clan in the past, and a guy who served as the king of Xi for a short time, is a man who is both civil and military, extremely strategic, he is extremely talented and extremely insidious. However, Xiao Gan is a person who understands current affairs, and he knows that in the face of absolute strength, any conspiracy will not succeed.

Since he served the powerful Han Empire, Xiao Gan never thought about betrayal, but just wanted to exchange his military merits for honor and seek benefits for the Xi people.

Annexing the entire grassland tribe and finding a resting place for the Xi tribe has become Xiao Gan's biggest dream, all the things of the grassland tribe are controlled by him, and with the full support of the Son of Heaven of the Han Dynasty, it will be finally completed, this time, it is destined to become the pioneer of the attack on the Jin country.

There is still some time to attack the Jin State, after all, this is the will of Liu Zhenglong, the emperor of the Han Dynasty, and he must wait until the Jin domestic strife and the throne changes hands before he can send troops. It can be regarded as a gift to the usurping emperor to ascend the throne and make him the king of the dead country.

The plan to destroy the Jin Kingdom had been launched several years ago, but the nobles of the Jin Kingdom were still in the dark! Wanyan Meiying went to the Jin Kingdom, and when she saw Wanyan Zongqi, she had already written the script for the demise of the Jin Kingdom.

The first step was to use the Gao Qingyi incident to let Guo Yaoshi control the Hebei region, which was the first step to free Hebei from the rule of the Jin State.

The second step was the turmoil of the Gaoqing incident, which made Wanyan Zongqi and Wanyan Zonggan join forces to destroy Wanyan Zonghan. The first step to create civil strife in Jin, you must know that although Wanyan Zonghan does not belong to the Taizu line, nor does he belong to the Taizong line, he is both civil and military, and he has a huge power in the Jin country, and he is an extremely difficult guy to deal with, so he can only be used first.

The third step is to use Chen Bin's designation of the no-account plan, which is divided into three steps, the first step is that the little emperor pretends to support Yan Zonggan and suppresses Yan Zongqi, and he must do it neatly and without missing traces. The second step is to instigate the suppressed Wanyan Zongqi to assassinate the little emperor. The third step, of course, was the leakage of the matter, the little emperor, with the support of Wanyan Zonggan, executed Wanyan Zongqian for the crime of treason, swept away this powerful strength, and made Wanyan Zonggan's family unprecedentedly powerful.

In the fourth step, after successively eradicating Yan Zonghan and Yan Zongqi, the unprecedentedly powerful Wanyan Zonggan family finally completed the killing of the monarch and pushed Wanyan Liang to the forefront. Of course, this step is also the most important step in the fall of the Jin Kingdom, which is the core of the whole plan.

The script for the destruction of the Jin Kingdom was personally written by Liu Zhenglong, the son of the Han Dynasty, and the executor was Shadow, which was the top military secret of the Han Dynasty, and only Liu Zhenglong and Ying Yi knew it in China, and no one else knew about it.

Xiao Gan didn't know how the Jin country would fall, and he didn't want to know, what he knew was that he and Yelu Mawu jointly controlled the 100,000 vassal army, not only to participate in the destruction of the Jin country, but also to destroy the grassland tribes, this task is arduous, no link can go wrong, it must be foolproof.

Over the years, Xiao Gan has been in charge of the overall situation, and Yelu Mawu has led the troops, and the two are ostensibly subordinate to each other, but in fact they are at the same level, and they are both responsible to the emperor of the Han Dynasty alone.

The 100,000 vassal army is almost composed of Khitan warriors and Xi warriors, of course, there are many Liaodi Han'er, as well as Bohai people, Goryeo people, and some Qiang people, Dangxiang people, and so on. This unit is strong in combat and retains the characteristics of the nomads who are good at mounted archery.

Although it is not yet time to start the war, but now Xiao Gan has to think about what will happen after the destruction of the Jin Kingdom, after all, after the annihilation of the grassland tribes, this game can be regarded as completely completed, otherwise it will definitely be a failure.

Xiao Gan took Yelu Mawu to his room to discuss the matter.

Xiao Gan said straight to the point: "The Son of Heaven of the Han Dynasty has a will, once the Jin State is destroyed and the grassland tribes are cleansed, we will unite the Heberon Department of the Western Road Army and go west to conquer Western Liao, when the time comes, Western Liao will be divided into two, you will be the king of Khitan, and I will be the king of Xi." However, there are many grassland tribes, and it is not easy to exterminate them, and I don't know if you have any good strategies. ”

"You mean, let them eat dogs?"

"That's exactly what it means." Xiao Gan didn't want to hide anything, he said with a smile: "Although there are more than 20 grassland tribes, large and small, but only the Wu Nai tribe, the Naiman tribe and the Caidan tribe are the climate, as long as these three tribes are strangled to death, then the overall situation can be determined." The three major tribes are full of contradictions, as long as we make good use of the contradictions between them, then we can destroy the grassland tribes without a bloody battle. ”

Yelu Mawu said with a smile: "I'm only responsible for the war, and you can plan the matter, and if you need my cooperation, you can just say it." ”

"I mean, I had a private contact with Unabe and promised to be the king of the steppe. You contacted the Naiban tribe and promised to be the king of the steppe. The two families have been in conflict for a long time, and they will not communicate with each other. Of course, I'm not afraid of 10,000, just in case, if the news leaks, it doesn't matter, take the Caidan Department as a backhand, and then I will ask the Son of Heaven to seal the Caidan Ministry. Once the Unai tribe and the Naiban tribe join forces to resist, then we will borrow the hands of the Caidan tribe to strangle their two major tribes. Among the three major tribes, the Caidan Department is the weakest, but it is also the one with the highest Sinicization rate and the richest. For them, it is harmless to strangle the Unai tribe and the Naiban tribe, and besides, the two major tribes have been oppressing the Caidan tribe for many years, and this hatred cannot be extinguished. ”

Yelu Mawu shook his head, and he said, "The leader of the Caidan Tribe, Caidan Barbarian, is an extremely ambitious and cunning person, and it is difficult to be fooled. Since acting, it is necessary to act realistically, and directly let the Caidan Ministry as a bait to pretend to be obedient to the Jin State, betray the Wu Nai Department, the Nai Barbarian Department, and gain the trust of the Jin State. ”

"Very good, we can find a suitable opportunity to reveal part of our plan to the Caidan Ministry through the imperial court, so that the whole plan will be seamless."

After the two of them deliberated the details many times, they reported to the Son of Heaven of the Han Dynasty.

After reading the report, the emperor of the Han Dynasty handed it over to the prince.

Now that the Son of Heaven of the Han Dynasty is in the Eastern Capital and the Crown Prince is in the Imperial Capital, it gives the outside world an illusion that the Han Dynasty wants to implement the dual system to pave the way for the abdication of the Son of Heaven, but in fact this is a sinkhole.

In the eyes of everyone, the emperor will not take the initiative to abdicate, and anyone will be obsessed with imperial power, which is why they can't see through this sinkhole.

Of course, Liu Zhenglong, a guy from later generations, can't play cards according to common sense, every one of his plans seems to be so wild, but in fact, the final result proves to be a stroke of genius.

This time, he announced his abdication in advance, which was to dig a sinkhole for Jin Guo, and even for Xiao Gan and Yelu Mawu, to test the loyalty of the two people, and also to test the governing ability of the crown prince Liu Haotian.

Before the abdication, the previous words of the throne may be overturned at any time, even if it is really passed to Liu Haotian, if this little emperor is not competent, Liu Zhenglong only needs one sentence to abolish Liu Haotian, this is domineering, after all, the Han was created by Liu Zhenglong, and the prestige has affected every corner of the Han.

It seems to be a simple joint report, but it is a severe test for the crown prince Liu Haotian, who knows that his father is testing himself This step is very important.

The crown prince Liu Haotian, who couldn't pay attention for a while, still decided to pay a visit to Wang Yin, the respected old marshal.

Although Wang Yin has not fought on the front line for many years, his disciples who are in charge of the military academy are all over the world, and almost more than half of the generals in the army are his disciples, and the old man has a very high prestige in the army.

Wang Yin is eighty years old, he has long left the military academy and enjoyed Qingfu at home, he didn't expect the prince to come to his house overnight, so he hurriedly greeted him.

The crown prince Liu Haotian is a corporal of Lixian, and he shows enough respect for the old man Wang Yin. He didn't have much time this time, so he took out the excerpt, and then hoped that the old man could give him a guide.

This matter is often arbitrary, so how can outsiders be asked for their opinions? However, Wang Yin didn't think it was inappropriate, after all, the prince was still young and inexperienced, and he still needed to be trained.
