Chapter 770: Self-Righteousness

Just when Li Jing announced this year's new plan, Bianjing City, thousands of miles away, also ushered in a new guest, Wanyan Xiyin of the Jin State Clan, this is the first time that the Jin people and Zhao Song came into contact, and the high-level Jin people appeared in Bianjing City. Before meeting Zhao Huan, Zheng Juzhong, as a close confidant of Emperor Zhao Song, personally met with Wanyan Xiyin, in order to spy on the fundamental purpose of Wanyan Xiyin's coming to Zhao Song and make preparations for Zhao Huan to meet Yan Xiyin.

"Lord Wanyan is here this time, I'm afraid there is something important!" Zheng Juzhong and Wanyan Xiyin were in the pavilion, and after the guests and hosts sat down, Zheng Juzhong couldn't wait to ask. There is no way, on the battlefield, the Jin people have an advantage, even in the peace talks, Zheng Juzhong has no advantage, so he can only be the first to speak.

"In the past, although there was some misunderstanding between you and me, but it was not the original intention of our dynasty, Tong Guan repeatedly provoked Dajin, and our army had no choice but to resist, in fact, I just wanted to teach Tong Guan a lesson, and there was no other meaning, and I asked my lord to convey the guilt of His Majesty Emperor Dajin." Wanyan Xiyin explained first.

No matter what the truth of the matter looks like, but on the surface, Wanyan Xiyin still gave a reasonable explanation, blaming all the sins on a dead man, even if Zheng Juzhong understood that Wanyan Xiyin was lying, he could only pinch his nose and admit it.

He smiled and said: "Tong Guan, this person is insidious and cunning, greedy for merit, for the sake of a throne, he is good at provoking the border, ruining the friendship between you and me, and has been beheaded by His Majesty." I believe that you and I will be able to unite in the future and clear the world. ”

"Yes, yes, this is exactly the purpose of the lower officials, who is the biggest thief in the world? When it was Li Jing, Li Jing occupied Hedong Road and attacked Guanzhong, this is the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, whose territory is the grassland, that is the territory of our aliens, and it is the territory of my Jin people, and now these two places have fallen into the hands of Li Jing, and my Dajin has decided to lead 200,000 elite soldiers and horses to seize the grassland when the autumn is cool. Wanyan Xiyin stared at Zheng Juzhong's eyes and said, "I don't know if Zhao Song has the courage to attack Li Jing?" ”

"200,000 elite soldiers, attacking the grassland?" Zheng Juzhong was shocked by the generosity of the Jin people, unlike Zhao Song, the number of Jin people is relatively small, and the 200,000 elite soldiers are almost the soldiers of the whole country of the Jin people, and they are actually used to solve Li Jing, which shows the hatred for Li Jing.

"Hehe, in fact, it's not just 200,000, but also the major tribes and Khitans living in the eastern part of the steppe add up to about 400,000." Wanyan Xiyin said with a smile. His words are half-true, although these tribes all listen to the Jin people, but in fact, there are not 400,000 people, at most 300,000. It is also impossible for the Jin people to use all the soldiers of the whole country to attack Li Jing, Wan Yan Sheng himself also has to master a part of the soldiers and horses, and the 400,000 in Wan Yan Xiyin's mouth is just to lure Zheng Juzhong, so that Zheng Juzhong thinks that the Jin people have been dispatched, and Li Jing can be destroyed by the Jin people at any time, and if you Song people don't make a move, I'm afraid you won't even have to drink the soup.

Zheng Juzhong has already made a move, but if it is just a golden person, Zheng Juzhong does not dare to make a decision, Li Jing has lost the grassland, Yunzhou, and Hedong Road, and Guanzhong, the Jin people have got the territory they want, but what about Zhao Song? lost soldiers and horses, consumed grain and grass, and in the end could only lose with Li Jing, Zheng Juzhong was not stupid to that extent.

Wanyan Xiyin seemed to see Zheng Juzhong's thoughts, smiled at the corner of his mouth, and said: "Actually, this time there are not only us, but my Majesty the Dajin Emperor also invited the Western Xia, so that the Western Xia sent troops to the area of Li Jing's Fuzhou Prefecture and divided Li Jing's soldiers and horses, so that we will have a three-way army, and the Song army can divide the troops into two routes, all the way to directly attack the land of Hebei or the land of Luoyang, and part of it can go out of the Dasan Pass and pass through the Guanzhong." Our five-way army is attacking together, Li Jing can't take care of the whole thing, and he will definitely be broken for us in the end. ”

In the end, it was Wanyan Zonghan and Wanyan Zongwang and others who came up with a strategy that attracted people, even a treacherous and cunning person like Zheng Juzhong couldn't help but touch his beard and nod his head again and again, this is a rather attractive plan. Zheng Juzhong believes that victory is very likely, and there is room for maneuvering.

"This matter is very important, the old man does not dare to call the shots, and he will talk back after the old man reports to the Son of Heaven." Although Zheng Juzhong agreed, he didn't dare to make the decision, and hurriedly said.

"Naturally." After Yan Xiyin put it down, Zheng Juzhong was fooled, not to mention the short-sighted Zhao Huan, he believed that Zhao Huan would definitely agree to this plan. This is one step closer to the destruction of the Song Dynasty.

After Zheng Juzhong got the news, he naturally didn't dare to slack off, and when he left the pavilion, he went to the palace, met Zhao Huan, and said Yan Xiyin's proposal again, and then said: "What is good, please show your majesty." ”

"Does Zheng Qing think that Jin Ren really wants to solve Li Jing? Is there no other factor? Zhao Huan was suspicious, and he didn't dare to pay attention at this time, so he asked.

"The Jin people are brutal and greedy, this is for sure, the minister thinks that Li Jing has a lot to do with this, and at this time, the Jin people are preparing to send troops on five routes, just to exterminate Li Jing, and then attack us." Zheng Juzhong thought for a while and said: "Li Jing led the cavalry to come last year, which had a certain deterrent effect on the Jin people, and I think this is an important reason why the Jin people started this year. ”

Zhao Huan's face was gloomy when he heard this, and he had to admit that because Li Jing was there last year, he was able to block the attack of the Jin people, even if he was in the city, he escaped a catastrophe. But for Zhao Huan, it was a shame that he actually needed Li Jing to rescue.

"Then Zheng Qing means that we don't do it?" Zhao Huan hesitated. He believed that no matter how powerful Li Jing was, in the face of the attack of the Five-Way Army, even if he had great ability, it was impossible to win, and at this time, it was the best time to eliminate Li Jing.

"Send troops, this time is naturally to send troops, but you can't really fight, but drag some of Li Jing's soldiers and horses, let the Jin people or Western Xia people and Li Jing fight, we will wait for the end of the fight before we act." If Li Jing wins, we will retreat, and if Li Jing fails, we will march and destroy Li Jing. Zheng Juzhong thought for a while and said.

"It's still Zheng Qing's old man who seeks the country." Zhao Huan nodded when he heard this, let the Jin people and the Xixia people come out first, and fight with Li Jing, it is best to lose both. He said with a smile: "Although this Jin man is fierce and brutal, but in the end he is a barbarian, he doesn't know the words of the sage, he doesn't know the trickery of the soldiers, and he is very compared with the Han people in the Central Plains in terms of calculation. Zheng Qing, if you go and promise him, just say that my Great Song Dynasty will send 200,000 troops, and the troops will be divided into two routes, cooperate with friendly troops, and attack Li Jing. ”

"Yes." Zheng Juzhong had a smile on his face and hurriedly said.
