Chapter 1029: Before the Great War

Qingzhou City was not affected by the heavy snow, but in the end, the Jin people sat in Qingzhou, and the Han people in Qingzhou City did not have the atmosphere of the New Year, and the entire Qingzhou City was lifeless and without any vitality.

Qingzhou Mansion Yazhong, Wanyan Zonghan is the same, Wanyan Yan's mother died, gave him a big blow, after all, Wanyan Yan's mother got her own order to attack Bianjing, but finally died under Bianjing, so that Dajin once again lost a fierce general, and it was also a big blow to Wanyan Zonghan's prestige, he had already gotten the news, and many people in the court were attacking themselves in front of Wanyan Sheng.

"Sticky Han, Li Jing sent someone." Wanyan Zongbi's face was gloomy, he walked in, and said, "I have already asked, I want to return the body of Wanyan Yan's mother, it is really hateful, this is an insult to my Dajin." ”

"What conditions did he make?" Wanyan Zonghan didn't speak, after getting the news, he knew that he was afraid that Li Jing would definitely put forward conditions, otherwise, Wanyan Yan's mother's body would not be easily handed over.

"He needs Zhao Huan, and he needs Zhao Huan to return to Tang." Wanyan Zongbi said in a low voice.

"I'm afraid it's not Gui Tang! It was to be sent to the Southern Song Dynasty to make Zhao Gou uncomfortable. Li Jing is really insidious and vicious, he occupies the Central Plains, even Zhao Huan's woman is in possession, and now he still wants Zhao Huan's life, he should kill Li Jing desperately, otherwise, where is there today. After Yan Zongbi immediately understood Li Jing's plan.

"What should be done about this?" Wanyan Zongbi said with some concern. Wanyan Yan's mother is the half-brother of Wanyan Aguta, who occupies an important position in the Jin Kingdom, and now that she has died in battle, if Li Jing does not return the body, it will be forgotten, now that she wants to return the body, although she asks for Zhao Huan, if Wanyan Zonghan is against it, the high-level officials of the Jin State will definitely not be willing.

"Li Jing wants to send Zhao Huan to the Southern Dynasty and let the two Zhao Gou brothers fight each other, so that there will not be enough time for the Northern Expedition, so Li Jing will hurry up and deal with us, you see! If there is a problem in the southern dynasty on the front foot, he will raise troops on the northern expedition on the back foot. Wanyan Zonghan's face was gloomy, although he was the commander of the army, he was not a member of the royal family, Wanyan Yan's mother was a member of the royal family, how important his body was, a Zhao Huan could not be compared to it at all, if he blocked it, he would definitely be attacked by the people in the court.

"Then don't give it to him. Wanyan Yanmu lost 50,000 troops, lost soldiers and generals, and committed a great crime, even if he returned to the court, the court would take his life, and now he died outside, which is already cheap. Wanyan Zongbi said disdainfully, he thought of 50,000 cavalry, his face was gloomy as water, and there were not many soldiers and horses in Dajin Kingdom, and now he claimed to have a million to the outside world, but in fact it was only about 700,000, most of which were still composed of Liao people and Han people together, most of the 50,000 cavalry of Wanyan Yanmu were composed of Jin people, and 50,000 people were lost, and the strength of the Jin people dropped a lot.

"Even if there is no Zhao Huan, Li Jing will use other people, as far as I know, Zhao Huan also has a son in Li Jing's hands, even if there is no Zhao Huan, the effect of using his son is almost the same." Wanyan Zonghan shook his head and said: "In this case, what about giving Zhao Huan to him, but let him pay a price, 100,000 stone grain and grass must not be too much." ”

"Yes, if a useless Zhao Huan can exchange 100,000 stones of grain and grass, it is a good deal, Hebei's grain production will be reduced this year, and Li Jing's grain and grass will be insufficient in the coming year, just use Li Jing's grain and grass to defeat Li Jing, how fast." Wanyan Zongbi nodded.

"These are all trails, the real decisive battle is still on the battlefield, Li Jing's forces are too strong, they have distanced themselves from us, it is very difficult to defeat Li Jing, the best way is to drag, drag until the Southern Song Dynasty to restore strength, and the two sides can succeed." Wanyan Zonghan clearly knew the gap between Dajin and Datang, and when it came to the foundation between the two sides, it was better for the Jin State to occupy the land of Hebei in a hurry than to occupy Li Jing in the Central Plains.

"Oblique is also training cavalry, whether it is a kidnapping horse or a Tiefutu, our Jin country is gathering all our strength to build cavalry, the land of Hebei, mostly plains, suitable for cavalry charges, although Li Jing has Hu cavalry, but Hu cavalry is mostly in the grassland, and the Han people are definitely inferior to us in cavalry." Wanyan Zongbi hurriedly said. The oblique is not someone else, it is Wan Yan Gao, this person is not only strong in martial arts, but more importantly, he is deeply proficient, whether it is Wan Yan Zonghan or Wan Yan Zongwang, he has been led by him, this time to the south, Wan Yan Gao did not follow, the main energy is on the cavalry, the Jin people want to defeat Li Jing head-on, but only in the cavalry, otherwise, Li Jing, who occupies the advantages of the people, the Jin people have no way to resist at all.

"This matter promised Li Jing to let him get some grain and grass, and sent someone to tell Zhao Gou that Zhao Gou's throne itself has a problem, and if Zhao Huan goes south, he is most worried. I'm afraid that on the way, Zhao Huan will be killed, and then slander Li Jing, and let them eat dogs, at least it will give us more time. Wan Yan Zonghan thought about it, and hurriedly wrote to Wan Yan Sheng to explain his views.

"Since Li Jing is preparing to attack next year, we can't let him be cheap, whether it's the grassland or Ludi, we can't make him look good." Seeing this, Wanyan Zongbi said viciously. Since he had already guessed that Li Jing was about to attack Hebei, as Wanyan Zongbi who went south to the Central Plains, Wanyan Zongbi, who had not yet made achievements in Ludi, did not look good on face.

"You're going to force your way into the Dock Fort?" Wanyan Zonghan immediately understood Wanyan Zongbi's thoughts, and asked without raising his head.

"Not bad." Wanyan Zongbi said viciously: "I personally led the army to cut off the back road of the dock fort, let Xia Quan desperately attack the dock fort, the dock fort grain and grass and other materials will be short sooner or later, at that time we will attack again." ”

Wanyan Zonghan's face changed slightly when he heard this, Wanyan Zongbi no longer had any patience, he decided to sacrifice the Ludi Righteous Army, and also solve the dock fort in front of him before Li Jing's Northern Expedition. Wanyan Zonghan did not object, when Li Jing's army arrived, these rebels had lost any role, and the only role was probably to consume Wu Jue's bow and arrow.

"That's fine, Li Jing's Northern Expedition still has some time, it's best to wait until he reacts, and then we can occupy Lu Land." Wanyan Zonghan nodded. If you want to fight a decisive battle, it will take a certain amount of time, especially if Li Jing still wants to use Zhao Huan to cause civil strife in the Southern Song Dynasty, he must plan carefully. As for the dispatch of troops and the mobilization of grain, grass and equipment, it will take time. As long as you grasp it well, you may not be able to pull out the nails in front of you.
