Chapter 91 The door is opened, and the nine rivers turn -2
Wanyan Zongbi stood in the tent and looked at Yelu's figure through the gap in the sheepskin tent. After descending to Liao, he knew that Mr. Han Da was actually a Khitan clan. "This poisonous snake!" Wanyan Zongbi's eyes flashed with a fierce color. As if sensing the resentful gaze here, Yelu actually smiled slightly and walked towards Wanyan Zongbi's tent.
"I went to meet the Lord of the North Courtyard in person," Ye Luquan, as the King of Jin and the commander of the Water Division, was naturally not as polite to Wanyan Zongbi as before, so he found a place and sat down with a grin, and said with a smile, "The Lord of the North Courtyard attaches great importance to the Water Master. It seems that the day of the Jurchens coming out is coming. ”
"It's all up to His Royal Highness King Jin." Wanyan Zongbi said with a smile, adding fragrant tea to Yelu's condition, since the southern expedition, these good things have never been in short supply.
Yeluquan picked up the teacup, thoughtfully, was silent for a while, and suddenly said: "I can endure humiliation and burden, and do a plan to lie down and taste courage." is worthy of being the most capable son of Aguta. After speaking, he gently blew the foam of the tea leaves and savored it. Wanyan Zongbi was shocked, the green muscles twisted for a moment, and his face distorted and he smiled reluctantly: "King Jin said that he was laughing." I don't understand these words. ”
"You're doing a good job," said Yelu, "but it's a pity that the difference between the front and back is too great." Such a flattering trip was not done by the fourth prince of the Wanyan Department. Fortunately, it is only for me, and if it is the same in front of His Majesty, I am afraid that my life will already be lost. Oh, let me guess," he said leisurely, "the more the fourth prince hates whom, the more respectful and flattering he becomes, and the unfortunate and unfortunate he is, and the shyness is the first place, so the feeling is also very obvious." Alas, alas, alas, alas. Heroes, how can they be so open-minded! After speaking, he put down the teacup and slammed it on the desk with a "clang".
The muscles on Yan Zongbi's cheeks couldn't help jumping, he simply stopped hiding, and said with a fierce look in his eyes: "Mr. Jin Wang, what do you want?" A hand subconsciously touched the saber next to the desk.
"What else?" Yelu sighed, "Honest and honest, it's just a matter of harmony with the fourth prince." ”
Wanyan Zongbi was stunned for a moment, and then listened to Yelu's situation: "His Royal Highness the Fourth Crown Prince has the ambition to revive the Jurchens, and the contemptible people are well aware of it. However, His Royal Highness read the history books early, which shows that there are many people who have died in the world, and how many heroes and heroes in the past dynasties have not had the ambition to lie down and taste courage, but in the end there is only one hook! "Wanyan Zongbi's sinology is all taught by Yelu, so the allusions he knows are all clear to Yelu. Hearing Yelu's allusion that he had a heart of intrigue, Wanyan Zongbi's cheeks twitched slightly, neither admitting nor denying it.
"Those who know the times are heroes. Now the Khitan is thriving, and the country is in full swing. Your Majesty is wise and discerning. If the fourth prince can no longer let go of his feelings for his homeland and has different aspirations, he will not only endanger himself, but also may affect the Jurchen family. Yelu's tone was a little chilly, and then he softened, "However, the current situation is a big opportunity for the fourth prince. Your Majesty swallows the heart of the world, but the Khitan people are limited after all, and even the Han Er army can build a camp. He sighed, "In front of tens of millions of Song people, what is the difference between the Khitans and the Jurchens, the Urbo, the Murwei, and the Uighurs?" For all tribes, the most important thing at the moment is not to be self-reliant and strong, but to pursue Jiwei and gain the greatest strength in this wave of southern expeditions. Mobei Boshenghuo Erbo surrendered on the surface, but in fact he secretly accumulated strength, colluded with the Song people, and made a false commitment to the will of the imperial court to transfer troops to the south. With His Majesty's heart, it is absolutely intolerable. But he is far away in Mobei, which can be regarded as beyond the reach of the whip, and he also restrains the Song army in Hedong. His Majesty also had to endure for the time being. Don't look at him jumping around right now, just wait for the Liao and Song Dynasty to form an alliance, maybe he will be the next Zhao Ke. ”
"Liao Song Xibing?" Wanyan Zongbi asked in surprise, "Why?" "Since the southern expedition, the Liao State has a posture of destroying the country, with the army of the country, captured the capital of the Song State, captured the emperor's ministers, killed millions of Song people, plundered countless children of wealth and silk, and had a deep blood feud between the two countries. However, in his heart, Wanyan Zongbi was still convinced of Yelu's judgment. At this moment, the conversation between the two seemed to return to the old days, when the fourth prince of Jurchen asked Mr. Han for advice.
"Exactly." Ye Lu said slowly, "Although the Song Dynasty is weak, it has many people and countless heroes. After the fall of the capital, although the Song court ceased to exist, such as the Yang family in Hedong, the Cao family in Xijing, Hou Huanyin in Jingdong, Zhao Xingde in Ezhou, etc., the heroes and powers that were originally suppressed by the imperial court also took advantage of the situation, and the world of the Southern Dynasty was actually collapsing rather than disintegrating. The current situation, even His Majesty, is unexpected. Although our dynasty has hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers, if we really want to flatten one of them, we must also be greatly injured. Your Majesty has now had to reuse generals who are not Khitans, and has to rebuild the Han military camp, you can imagine what kind of situation such a war will be if it lasts for a few more years, or even more than ten years? He paused, looked at Yan Zongbi's thoughtful expression, and reminded, "Don't forget, after dealing with the wolves and dogs, there is still a tiger waiting for the opportunity to move. ”
"Xia Guo?" Wan Yan Zongbi lost his voice.
Ye Lujing nodded, his eyes were a little gloomy: "The Xia Kingdom is waiting for that day, and if Your Majesty can't swallow the Song Dynasty in one fell swoop, you will inevitably have to stop fighting with Xiangyang, so as not to let the west take advantage." The war will last no more than a year, and if you defeat the courage of the Song people, it is estimated that peace will really be negotiated. ”
"Sir's words are reasonable." Wanyan Zongbi unconsciously said casually, "In this way, Your Majesty sent someone to declare that the Liao and Song Dynasty were brothers' countries from the same Shang Dynasty, and through Bianliang Zhao Zhifu, Qin Hui and other Song ministers to govern the Song Realm in Henan, and have been in constant contact with Xiangyang, so they have been preparing for a long time." ”
"Yes," said Yelu, "if the Song Dynasty can be swallowed quickly, these actions can be regarded as dissolving the stubborn resistance of the Song people." If it cannot be extinguished in one fell swoop, it will be a foreshadowing of peace. For our dynasty, it is best for the Song Kingdom to be divided into two sides, Zhao Ke and Zhao Qi each have a group of courtiers to support, Zhao Qi's underneath, are Cai Jing, Cao Di, Li Bangyan, Liu Yanqing such old foxes, and below Zhao Ke, Zhao Zhifu, Qin Hui, these old ministers who followed him to suffer, and Chen Dong, Zhao Xingde, Hou Huanyin and others, are inevitably incompatible. As long as I don't fight them, the monarchs and ministers of the Song Dynasty will be on good luck, and they will not be able to raise troops to attack us. Da Liao can have more than ten years of recuperation and recuperation, and turn the victory of the southern invasion into his own, and then it will be much easier to try to destroy the Song Dynasty, and he is not too worried about the intervention of the Xia State. ”
"I see," Wanyan Zongbi suddenly realized, but he was a little puzzled, "That ......" He didn't understand why King Yelu of Jin had to take the trouble to explain these to himself, now that the two have very different statuses, he is no longer the fourth prince of the Jin Kingdom.
"The king must understand," said Yelu, slowly, "that those who achieve great things should follow the trend and not go against it." If your Majesty's destiny is today, as long as we sincerely serve our lives and win Your Majesty's trust, the strength of the Jurchen sailors will become stronger and stronger. It's really coming," he paused slightly, and lowered his voice, "If there's any chance, isn't strength the most important?" ”
"But will Your Majesty really trust me and wait?" At this time, Wanyan Zongbi still had some doubts.
Yelu smiled slightly: "The Son of Heaven is also a lonely person." No one can believe it. But if you really want to believe it, there is really not much difference between flesh and blood relatives and foreign races. In order to ascend the throne, Hu Hai gave his brother to death, and almost wiped out the Qin Dynasty clan. The Han Dynasty and the Xiongnu can be said to have a deep enmity like the sea, but the Son of Heaven of the Han Dynasty still uses Jin Riyan as the phase. And that Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty. In the eyes of the Son of Heaven, there is only the theory of subjects, and there is no difference between different races. He paused and affirmed, "Your Majesty, sooner or later you will understand this." ”
