The emperor of Liao died, Yeluren died first, Gan Qi obviously didn't know anything about these things, let alone the corpses everywhere, which one was Yelu Hongji and which one was Yelu Renxian?

The army rested, cleaned up the battlefield, counted the casualties, and disposed of some of the corpses, especially the ramp, which had to be dealt with, otherwise this summer Datong City would really not be a place for people to live.

It is also necessary to mobilize countless people in Datong to join the clean-up ranks, and it is the best way to find a low depression and bury the corpses in it. As for the corpses that have been decomposing for a long time, they have to set up firewood and burn them for a long time before disposing of the corpses.

The main force of the Liao people lost more than 50,000 people, and the ironclad blades were piled up into a mountain.

The casualties of the Song army were not small, the mighty army alone suffered more than 20,000 casualties, and the Wansheng army was also more than 20,000, and the casualty ratio of the two sides was almost one to one.

There are also a lot of booty, and the horses collected are as high as 70,000 or 80,000, and the sheep are not counted, and the people of the various tribes of the grassland are still collecting horses and sheep everywhere.

Ganchi stood in front of the map, studying his next military move.

Grab money, you have to hit the city, in addition to Yanyun, the Liao people have many cities, Datong to the north, out of Dezhou, is Fengzhou, is the southwest road of the Liao people, almost the place where Hohhot is located in the future, and then to the northwest, Yunneizhou, Dongshengzhou.

Go north to Yanjing, Bei'an Prefecture (Chengde), Zezhou, and go straight to Dading Mansion in Zhongjing, Liaoguo.

Datong to the north, relatively poor. But if Yanjing goes north, then he will really make a fortune.

After the Datong War, the army rested for a while, Gan Qi was going to the direction of Yanjing, and took the main force to the north of Yanjing, the target was the Dading Mansion in Zhongjing of Liao, and he wanted to loot this city.

As long as the Liao State Zhongjing is captured, the living space of the Liao State will be further compressed, and the five capitals of the Liao State will only be left with Tokyo and Shangjing, which almost control the Liao State in the old territory of their rise and rise, and it is also the main settlement of the Khitan people.

The Khitans lost the grassland, the Jurchens in the north, and the Great Song Dynasty in the south, and there was almost no room for maneuver, and there was no chance of re-rising.

There is no need to be in a hurry in the speed of the march, and there is no need to be in a hurry, there are a hundred guns to take with them, and the speed cannot be fast.

Now Ganqi is no longer in a hurry, after the victory of this battle, everything is on the right track, and it has been carried out according to Ganqi's ideas, and the grand strategies in Ganqi's heart are no longer much hindered.

Gan Qi took more than 40,000 mighty troops and 80,000 grassland light horsemen and began to move in the direction of Yanjing.

Gan Qi's official letter of success, 600 miles to Tokyo.

With the official document, in fact, there is still money and food, even if there are not many 80,000 grassland people, Ganqi's logistics are also under great pressure, and now that there are more than 80,000 people to eat, the food demand will be more, which can no longer be solved by Ganqi's own private money, and the court must rely on the court to solve the problem.

The paperwork arrived at the Privy Council and immediately entered the palace.

At the court meeting, the emperor was excited, but he didn't have time to be happy for long, and began to frown again.

Fu Bi had already spoken: "Your Majesty, I'm afraid this battle can't be fought anymore, Gan Xiang's opening this time is 300,000 stone military rations, it's the middle of summer, it's not much grain in stock, and the autumn grain is not enough, where can I get so much grain?" ”

The emperor personally defended: "The rich old minister, this time the prime minister wants to march into Liaozhong Beijing, and he wants to knock down the Dading Mansion, if he can't supply military rations at this time, then the strategy of the army will be blocked, and if he doesn't take advantage of the victory to pursue, won't he give up his efforts?" ”

"Your Majesty, it is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, the head of the court has just borrowed millions of yuan from Gan Xiang's money bank and has not repaid it, and at this time, it is necessary to raise 300,000 stone military rations to send to the front line, the purchase cost, the transportation cost, where can it come out? Let's ask Wang Jiefu, and ask whether the third division has so much money? Fu Bi said.

Emperor Zhao Zhen really looked at Wang Anshi, Wang Anshi was quite embarrassed, but he also replied: "Your Majesty, it is clear in Prime Minister Gan's official document that he will teach the imperial court to borrow another three million yuan from Qianzhuang to raise military rations. ”

Fu Bi immediately continued: "No, never." It is inappropriate for the court to borrow money, and it is even more inappropriate to repeat it again and again in a short period of time. If everyone in the world knew that the imperial court needed to borrow money to survive, wouldn't it be a joke? ”

"Fu Xianggong, Gan Xianggong said very clearly, as long as you lay down the Dading Mansion, you can immediately return the arrears, this money, at most only need to borrow for two months, but a little interest, for a Dading Mansion, how cost-effective?" Wang Anshi said according to Gan Qi's meaning.

Some things are still troublesome, such as Gan Qi is not in the capital, many things are much more troublesome to operate, and things that could have been decided in a word are debated endlessly in the court.

Fu Bi was also smart, looked at Sima Guang, and asked, "What does Sima Zhongcheng think about this matter?" ”

Sima Guang also frowned, he really didn't understand these things. For him, borrowing money, the subjective feeling is not very good, this is human nature, no one wants to borrow money, especially scholars, looking for others to borrow money is like doing a bad thing.

However, the front line is tight, and Gan Qi wants to attack Dadingfu, and if there is no supply of military rations, there will definitely be problems.

Sima Guang gave a conservative strategy: "Otherwise, the imperial court will make up first, and transport as much as it gets, and it will always be able to raise 20,000 or 30,000 stones to be transported to the front line first to solve the urgent need." As for the matter of borrowing, it can be postponed for a while, and then it will be determined by the situation on the front line of Gan Xianggong. ”

Fu Bi nodded: "This method is more secure, but it is also feasible." ”

Wang Anshi argued: "Your Majesty, everyone, how can you procrastinate so much in the war on the front line? If the front line is not able to take over, resulting in a great defeat, who can be held responsible? Now the money village is under my control, and the three divisions are also under my command, borrowing money, but the left hand is changed to the right hand, as long as the court nods, three million yuan can immediately be used by the three divisions to buy grain. Why is it so difficult to get to the court for such a simple thing? Could it be that when the front-line soldiers died, they were still starving? ”

Sima Guang said again: "Xianggong Wang, you can't say that, how can the imperial court let the front-line soldiers go hungry?" Grain is lucky, this is also a method of raising in batches, first transport 20,000 or 30,000 stones, and then find a way to do it. If you can't, why not borrow again? ”

Zhao Ji remembered Gan Qi's words when he was leaving, and listened to Wang Anshi's decision in the direction and Sima Guang in the specific operation.

Well, this time, Gan Qi is going to shoot himself in the foot.

Because Zhao Ji was really ready to do this, he nodded and replied: "That's it, first raise 30,000 stones and send it to Yanyun urgently." I'll talk about the rest in a few days. ”

300,000 stone military rations became 30,000 stone military rations. I don't know if Gan Qi will regret the words entrusted to the emperor in the first place.

Gan Qi naturally didn't know this, where did he think that what he said so clearly would become a different thing when he arrived in Bianliang.

There is such a thing as power, Gan Qi thinks that he is very transparent, but in fact, he still has to learn.

At this time, Gan Qi was already under the city of Bei'anzhou.

On the city wall, there are countless Khitan people, and the defeat has been so far, the Khitan people have long been united, with sorrow, regardless of the military and the people, to protect the family and defend the country.

It's all outside the border, this is no longer the land of the Great Song Dynasty, and even Bei'an Prefecture does not have many Han people, although it is often ruled by the Central Plains Dynasty in history, but it has never been a place where Han people live.

Now that Ganchi wants to attack the city, it has already become much simpler, and the artillery is set out and bombarded according to the city gate and tower.

Artillery to break the city, in fact, is not so simple, but Gan Qi has also been prepared, he prepared 5,000 shells, the battle of Datong consumed more than 1,000 rounds, and now there are more than 3,000 rounds left, it is enough to fight three cities.

Now the offensive and defensive situation has changed, and it has been replaced by Gan Qi sitting firmly on a high platform, and the seats are all trophies, the seat that Yelu Hongji used to sit outside Datong City is now sitting under Gan Qi's ass, of course, it is not a dragon chair.

Eighty thousand steppe light cavalry waited in formation, waiting for the projectile to blast the city gate open, waiting for the projectile to collapse the city wall.

The 40,000 mighty troops, lined up around the generals, just pressed the formation, and they didn't need to do it anymore this time.

Artillery begins.

Gan Qi was not in a hurry, let alone urging, and followed the steps.

But Gan Qi also sighed: "Look at this posture, even if the city is broken, there will be a bloody battle." ”

Di Yong stood aside and nodded: "The Khitan people are now dedicated to protecting their families and defending the country, and I am afraid that they will not be easily captured." ”

Gan Qi raised his hand and pointed to the steppe riders in front of his head, and asked, "I don't know which one is the most useful." ”

"Big brother, today Dami is playing as a striker, the enemy is the second in the eight divisions, the nine divisions of Dadan and the queen of the black car room Wei Dian. If the attack is unfavorable, Damili will bear the brunt. ”

Gan Qi smiled slightly: "It seems that Dami is going to be unlucky." ”

Di Yong thought so: "There are a total of 7,000 people left in Damiri, but I don't know how many people are killed or injured. ”

In the war between Song and Liao, the commanders of the Great Song Dynasty chatted with the generals under their command, as if this war had nothing to do with them.

Round after round of shelling, the gates were broken, the walls collapsed, and the drums sounded.

Zarihe, a white-haired old man under the age of forty, led more than 7,000 people under his command to show himself in front of his new master. Light horsemen swarmed away.

This is the home of the Khitan people, and there are countless Khitan people who regard death as home. They knew what would happen to them if the city was really broken, and what would happen to the family.

The city gate is easy to enter, but the city is difficult to occupy.

Gan Qi couldn't even see the blood, only the sound of fighting in the city.

But he also saw that tens of thousands of cavalry were blocked at the city gate, and they did not wait for the city to break through for a long time.

Gan Qi's gossip resumed: "You said that if I whipped Zarihe in front of tens of thousands of grassland tribes at that time, would it be appropriate?" ”

Di Yong was stunned and replied: "Big brother, it is inappropriate to be afraid like this, it is easy to cause resentment, and I am afraid that these grassland people will recur when the time comes." ”

"Then how about I whip Zariha, and then reward the enemy Torta?" Ganchi asked again.

"This ......" Di Yong thought for a while, and said: "The eldest brother is so clever, such an enemy must be grateful to the eldest brother." ”

Gan Qi smiled: "Next time, let the enemy lie play the striker, let Damiri second, and reward the meritorious deeds again." ”

"Thank you, big brother, for teaching." Di Yong bowed.

"Learned?" Gan Qi asked.

Di Yong nodded: "Yes, I will be able to do it, and I have to continue to learn with my eldest brother." ”

"Well, this is the basic means, this is to make the ministries compete with each other. But it's not enough, it is necessary to make the various ministries hate each other and hate each other. Ganchi said.

"Big brother, how can we make the various departments hate each other?" Di Yong thought and asked.

"When you compete with each other, someone will naturally use some small means. Gotta be confused, let some people's small tricks succeed, understand? "Gan Qi is really teaching Di Yong, because Gan Qi will return to Tokyo, and Di Yong is the person who operates these methods.

"Got it, I got it. If someone succeeds in small means, it will attract envy. Di Yong really understands, this method is actually simple, just like a primary school student making a small report, if the small report is successful, the person who is beaten will naturally hate this small report.

But you can't be confused all the time, you have to maintain a certain amount of fairness and justice, and you can't really make people think you're stupid. But it is necessary to indulge the small means of some people, and if someone has a small means, naturally some people will want to take revenge, and they will also let the person who retaliates succeed once or twice, so that over time, all the departments of the grassland can be trusted. Gan Qi said slowly.

Di Yong was already enlightened, and he smiled, and said with a somewhat gloomy smile: "Big brother, I completely understand." ”

Gan Qi also smiled, not saying much, Di Yong is smart enough to understand a little.

"You will have to do these things in the future." Gan Qi said the ultimate goal.

"Don't worry, don't worry, I won't disappoint my eldest brother."

The battle was fighting, and Gan Qi, who was on the stage, was a little bored waiting, looking left and right, and there was no pastime, so he couldn't help but snort a few times to express his boredness at the moment.

Gan Ba asked: "Does the eldest brother want to listen to the piano?" ”

Gan Qi shook his head: "That's it, this is all outside the gate." ”

Gan Ba also said: "If you had known that this was the case, how good would it be to take that little girl from Datong with you?" ”

Ganchi waved his hand again, no more.

Two hours later, 80,000 light horsemen finally rushed into the city, and the shouts of killing in the city slowly decreased a lot.

Gan Qi spoke again: "General Di, it's your turn, bring the troops into the city, all the valuable things must be brought back." ”

Di Yong gave the order, and the mighty army that had already been impatient had risen.

In the middle of the afternoon, under the stage, Gan Xianggong Jin Jia was on his body, his face was hideous, and he was furious in the gaze of countless eyes.

The horsewhip kept whipping on the head of the Damiri tribe, Zarihe, and the interpreter continued to translate Gan Xianggong's angry words: "It's just a small city, you can't attack it for a long time, what use do you want!" ”

Zali was whipped and begged for mercy, but he couldn't stop the angry Gan Xianggong.

Until Gan Xianggong was tired and finished venting, he listened to Gan Xiang's public speech: "If it weren't for the enemy's martyrs fighting bravely to the death, this small city wouldn't be broken?" Where is Torta? ”

When Torta heard the roll call, he was shocked, and hurriedly stepped forward: "The villain is here." ”

"Reward, reward you with a pair of heavy armor, give the Great Song Zhaowu Captain, from now on, you will be the official of the Great Song Dynasty, and from now on you can walk around in the Chinese army in armor, and then pay 10,000 yuan, and give each person in the enemy martyrdom a pot of good wine."

After saying these words, Gan Qi left without looking back.

"Xie Gan Xianggong is kind, Xie Gan Xianggong!" Torta kowtowed again and again, and thanked him for a thousand thanks.
