In Yanjing City, Zhao Gouzheng, who got the 'good news' of the First World War in Danzhou, was talking with several principals of second- and third-rate families in Yandi.

With the northward movement of the Yan Wangjun and the withdrawal of the Jin forces, the political form of Yandi has undergone a significant change, that is, the Liu, Zuo, Yu, Zhang and other families that originally occupied the head of the Han family in Yandi were all carried by the Jurchens to Guanwai. What is left are some second- and third-rate families, such as the Ma clan to which Ma Zhi belongs!

Ma Zhi is the one who presented Zhao Song with the strategy of "Lianjin to destroy Liao", this generation is the Yandi clan, and the official is Guangluqing. However, because he was defeated in the internal political struggle, he turned to Zhao and Song and actively promoted the Song and Jin to jointly attack Liao.

Seriously, Zhao Gou is still very interested in this person. He would never plant the black cauldron of Jingkang's shame on Ma Zhi's body, even if this person has some political speculation, but Zhao Song can't blame others for not being hard.

On the contrary, in Zhao Gou's eyes, Ma Zhi can think of Lianjin to destroy Liao, and he is a very capable person. If it weren't for the fact that Ma Zhi was dead, he would be the biggest banner in Zhao Gou's hands to recruit the Yandi family.

It's a pity that the first time the Jin people went south, the Song Dynasty and the Manchu Dynasty lost their adults, which must be to find a substitute for the dead ghost. Ma Zhiyu was pulled out and carried the black cauldron. Goshi accused: "The Maritime Pact led to the final calamity of the Kingdom of Jin. At the same time, it also ruined the situation of reconciliation between our dynasty and the Khitan for a hundred years, so that the Jin people invaded and harmed the Central Plains, and Ma Zhi should be beheaded on the street for public display. ”

That is, all the sins were put on Ma Zhi, and it became the key to Zhao Song leading the wolf into the house.

One by one, I really don't want to be half cheeky.

Therefore, without Ma Zhi, the Ma family can only become a member of today's audience, but not the one who dominates.

After reading the "good news", Zhao Gou's face did not change, and he even announced the news that Danzhou was taken by Yan Wangjun in a happy tone.

After the experience of the late Ming Dynasty, the current Zhao Gou is not a person who is easy to be angry.

But how could he not be angry?

is just a small Danzhou, the defenders are only a few thousand remnants, Yang Weizhong handed over such an answer sheet to him?

Not counting Liu Shunren, who surrendered, only the Yanshan army lost 5,000 soldiers in the battle of Danzhou, and there is no need to think about whether the earth-shattering thunder will be lost, and the South Gate camp, which was completely annihilated by the Jin people's iron cavalry, exploded with a roar at the end, and the Jin people did not do well!

But no matter whether the Jin people are good or not, whether Wanyan Lou is dead or not, just looking at the loss of Yan Wangjun, Zhao Gou's face will not look good.

The remaining men and horses of the camp at the south gate can be said to be completely annihilated, the 1,000 soldiers left behind, as well as the more than 1,000 wounded soldiers lying in the camp, and even some military doctors and Ding Zhuang, only a few scattered 100 people escaped.

If it weren't for the martyrdom at the last moment of the South Gate Camp that made Zhao Gou satisfied—this was a matter of attitude, his face would only be worse now.

Let Yang Weizhong ask for punishment. All the soldiers who died in battle should be given preferential pensions. "The soldiers of the South Gate Battalion dared to ignite the earth-shattering thunder at the last moment and died together with the Jin soldiers, which really moved Zhao Gou." and that Zhang Jun, whose courage is commendable. Promoted to the deputy head of Yanjing, and gave Gu Beikou to Gubeikou. ”

Of course, Zhao Gou knew that Zhang Jun, one of the culprits who killed Yue Fei, a member of the Yue Temple kneeling foursome, was also one of the two most inappropriate generals in the early Southern Song Dynasty, and the other was Liu Guangshi.

But judging from the current performance, Zhang Jun's performance is very good. Whether it was before, or in the battle of Danzhou that just ended, he performed remarkably.

Last year, the Jin soldiers surrounded Yuci, the commander of the Song army was martyred, Zhang Jun led hundreds of troops to break through the siege, and fought and retreated, and killed more than 500 pursuers, which made him famous and emerged in the army. In the same year, he fought against Jin Bing in Dongming County, and was promoted to martial arts doctor with military merits. In May, he then sent aid to Taiyuan from Hebei and Hedong Road, and the army was defeated in Yuci, and Zhang Jun led hundreds of people to flee south from the siege. In December, when Zhao Gou advanced to the Daimyo, Zhang Jun led his troops and horses to the Daimyo with Liang Yangzu, the prefect of Xinde, and thus became Zhao Gou's subordinate and served as the commander of the main army.

Now that Zhao Gou is appointed as the deputy head of the land of Yanjing, it is definitely a step up. He performed well in the battle of Danzhou, and immediately led the troops to the camp, not only to meet some lucky people who escaped, but also after the explosion of the camp at the south gate, he took advantage of the chaos of the Jin army to launch an offensive, completely ending the battle of Danzhou. It is not surprising that such a reward is so rewarded. Although Zhang Jun came out of the main army. But this is also the general climate, isn't it?

As the territory under Zhao Gou's command increased, the positions of the chief and deputy governors were in front of them, waiting for commanders like Zhang Jun to compete for them.

People who don't have a big background or have extremely outstanding abilities will not think about the position where the five major battalions are in charge.

Compared with going to the next level in the five major battalions, it will be easier to go to the local garrison for a transition.

Zhang Jun is not Yue Fei or Han Shizhong, he is not very outstanding among the commanders in the army, and he is very happy to jump out of the five battalions.

And in addition to Zhao Gou's anger, in fact, he can't do more measures.

You can't cut Yang Weizhong because of this, right?

Yang Weizhong is not really surnamed Yang, and the Kang family behind him is also a third-rate small family in Yandi. Although this person defected to the Great Song Dynasty early, he has an inextricable connection with Yandi. With Ma Zhi dead and Liu Yanzong and other leading figures swept away by the Jin people, Yang Weizhong may not be able to become a new banner of the Yandi family in Zhao Gou.

Furthermore, the battle of Danzhou was won by the Yan Wangjun on the surface, how can there be a reason in the world to be questioned if he wins?

Even if Yang Weizhong is really punished, it can only be a public punishment. And that's politics.

In the same way, it is impossible for him to continue to shout and kill the Jurchens, not to mention this climate problem, mobilizing troops in the cold winter is not a good choice for the Central Plains regime.

Just talking about the terrain outside the pass, Zhao Gou and the others are very unfamiliar, and the only purpose of their mobilization this time is the sixteen states of Yanyun. Coupled with the problem of grain and grass transportation, there is no way to continue to use troops.

Zhao Gou didn't have the time and energy to continue the offensive against the Jurchens, what he should do now was to completely control the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun and control the Khitan Southwest Road Recruitment Division - that would allow him to form a very favorable strategic terrain in Western Xia. By the way, he also sent a summons to the Moge Lost Department and the Divination Department of the Monan Grassland, so that he could smoothly inherit the co-dominance of the Khitan and Jurchen in the Monan Grassland.

This is a very valuable political legacy. Because of the Khitan people's grassland policy, in the past two hundred years, the Khitan not only built some cities in the depths of the grassland, but also opened up a number of roads connecting the grassland and the Yan land, and also encouraged and suppressed the development of the grassland tribes.

The famous golden family in later generations is still a very inconspicuous small tribe in the Mobei Qiyan Department, and the living environment is even more superior on the Monan grassland, because it is closer to the core power of the Khitan, so whether it is the Mo Ge Lost Department or the Hinder Department, or the Bai Dadan people, it is not yet a climate. As for the Naiban tribe and the Divination people in Mobei, as well as the Menggu tribes, they are independent and do not belong to each other, and they are also vulnerable.

In the steppe, where the population is very limited, the nomads are divided into small tribes that do not belong to each other, and even different tribes have an indissolvable hatred for each other.

And the prairie under such circumstances is also a good time for Zhao Gou to subdue them.
