The content of the letter is diametrically opposed to the plan in Song Qi's heart, at this moment, knowing that the letter was signed as the empress, he is still a little dissatisfied in his heart!

The army is outside, every move is related to the victory or defeat of the war, the empress is in Kaifeng, maybe she knows about the front-line war in the war report, but she only knows the skin, the specific situation, how can the front-line generals know. (5) ∨ eight (5) ∨ eight (5) ∨ read (5) ∨ books, .●.●o

Meng Kuo noticed that Song Qi's expression was secretly angry, and he thought that there must be a problem, and after taking the letter and browsing it quickly, his expression became strange.

In the empress's letter, she asked for a temporary truce, but he didn't understand what the empress meant, and sighed secretly, aren't you worried that the Song army can't defeat the main army of Zheng State?

However, the king's order was difficult to disobey, before, he was hesitant to stay and fight, but it was Song Qi who persuaded him many times, explaining the benefits of continuing the war, and reluctantly persuaded him.

At this moment, the empress personally sent someone to send an edict, strictly prohibiting the expedition, which was in line with his thoughts, and was persuaded by Song Qi to change his thoughts, and his thoughts were shaken.

After thinking about it, Meng Kuo was worried in his heart, worried that the empress would order a truce, and the problem would come from the Yan Kingdom.

After all, the monarchs and ministers of the Yan State were very cunning, in the past, when he was in the Liang State, he personally fought with Emperor Yan and the generals of the Yan Army, and the two sides did not get along well, and he was teased by Emperor Yan and the generals of the Yan Army many times, and the seeds of hatred were planted in his heart.

Previously, when leaving from Bishan, the Yan army secretly made some small moves, and at this time, the edict came from Kaifeng for thousands of miles, and it was definitely not without reason.

He guessed that the empress must have her own plans, and said calmly: "Lord, Your Majesty has always been far-sighted and has your own opinions, at this time, on the Zheng Army's side, Xing Yike led the army to join Ju Wentai, we have not yet figured out the details of the other party, and we are not clear about the north of the mountain, what the Yan Army will do, I am in the light, the enemy is in the dark, it is better to be careful, and act according to the instructions in Your Majesty's letter!" ”

In the past year, the achievements of the Song army have exceeded those of the past decades, or even hundreds of years, since the current situation is unclear and has just been defeated, Meng Kuo felt that the empress's instructions were good, and temporarily suspended the army to maintain the current victory.

Otherwise, the two countries of Song and Zheng will be stumbled, Yan Chen will take advantage of the fire to rob, and the achievements of the Song State will inevitably be in vain!

Song Qi saw Meng Kuo, who had just been persuaded by himself, because of the letter, he reversed himself, and he couldn't help but feel angry in his heart, and said sharply: "No matter what Your Majesty's plans are, the battlefield opportunity is rare, this time, the Zheng army is rare to concentrate all its forces, it seems to be menacing, as long as we deploy properly and the whole army is united, it may not be impossible to defeat the other party, at that time, regardless of Chen Guo or Yan Guo, we will free our hands and directly start a war with the other party, and the bird qi that you and I have been holding in our hearts for all these years should also be released!" ”

Song Qi and Lin Feng were at odds, and they also knew that Meng Kuo and Lin Feng had a disagreement, so Song Qi planned to persuade Meng Kuo again, and the two ignored the news from the DPRK and continued to attack Zheng Guo.

In the future, Lin Shuying inquired, using the excuse of not receiving the letter, directly prevaricating in the past, even if Lin Shuying suspected the thoughts of the two, at that time, Zheng Guo became the territory of the Song State, and the two important generals in the army knew the law and broke the law at the same time, but they established a great achievement, and Lin Shuying couldn't help the two.

It's a pity that Meng Kuo, as Lin Shuying's confidant general, received an order and completely dispelled the idea of fighting to the end.

"Song Qi, you and I, as important generals of the Song Kingdom, are on the front line, we should put the interests of the empire first, and don't be too entangled in personal grievances, so as not to lose big because of small things, after all, there are many capable people in the DPRK, whether it is Jian Ye, Tian Xu, or Liu Zhuoya, they are not idle people, since the empress sent the letter, obviously discussed with the other party, there must be a major plan, you insist on taking risks and sabotaging Your Majesty's deployment!" Meng Kuodao, a personal grudge with Lin Feng, will personally resolve it when they meet on the battlefield in the future, but not now, disobey the king's order!

Moreover, the Zheng army had just won, and the momentum was like a rainbow, and the two major armies gathered to flank the Song army, which happened to be a truce in the court, and he felt that it was time for a truce and wait and see what happened.

Song Qi was very upset when he heard that Meng Kuo had taught him a lesson, and said: "Meng Kuo, the Zheng army is counterattacking, we are making a truce, and the other party may not build, not to mention that we occupy a large area of Zheng State's territory, if you don't fight, the other party may not fight!" ”

Silence, a short silence, Meng Kuo said bluntly: "Are you afraid of being avenged by Zheng Guoren?" ”

"You!" When Song Qi heard this, he pointed at Meng Kuo, his face a little angry.

When attacking Zheng, he slaughtered the city on a large scale, and was called a butcher by the people of Zheng, regarded as a thorn in the eye and a thorn in the flesh, eager to cut him with a thousand knives and vent the fire of hatred in his heart!

However, Song Qi has an arrogant and domineering personality, and he will never be afraid of anyone, how can he be afraid of Zheng Guoren's revenge, if the other party dares to come, he will not hesitate to lead the army to meet it.

Today's defeat was purely accidental, and if it weren't for the appearance of Xing Ike and his troops from the Eastern Front, he would never have expected to fight, and Hanyang City would never have changed hands.

Song Qi's violent attitude, Meng Kuo did not continue to quarrel with him, turned to leave, returned to the camp, and treated Zheng Jun with caution.

At present, the coalition forces are gathered in one place, he does not move, Song Qi will face the battle alone, it will be very difficult, and the solution is self-evident, Song Qi intends to disobey the royal order, and he must also consider the price!

In fact, Zheng Guo lost a large amount of land, the population plummeted, and the food was consumed sharply, and under normal circumstances, it was not suitable for a long-term war with the Song State.

It's just that the Song Kingdom, from the emperor Li Zhao to the people of Liming, is holding their breath in their hearts, ready to take revenge and regain the lost land.

It happened that Yan Guo supported in time, and Chen's army made a truce on the Eastern Front, which greatly reduced the pressure on Zheng Guo, and quickly mobilized Xing Yike to advance westward, and joined forces with Ju Wentai to deal with Song State.

However, Li Zhao knew in his heart that Yan Guo was not really helping, Chen Guo temporarily suspended his troops, instead of withdrawing his troops, and Yan and Chen were like two fierce tigers, lying on both sides of Song and Zheng, sitting and watching the war between the two countries and consume each other.

Li Zhao can say with certainty that as long as Song Zheng continues to weaken in the internal friction and lies on both sides, sooner or later he will attack Song and Zheng.

At present, the Song State occupies a dominant position, Yan Chen supports Zheng Guo, if Zheng Guo defeats Song Guo in front of him and breaks the current situation, Yan Chen is bound to give up his support for Zheng Guo, and Song Zheng continues to fight again.

This is a circular routine, Yan Chen's strategy is nothing more than to maintain the basic balance of Song Zheng's power, and the two sides consume each other to reap the benefits of the fisherman.

Unless Zheng Song quits his troops, a complete truce, and the current boundary is used as the boundary to maintain balance!

Zheng Guo, Kaifeng, Jinluan Palace!

In the court, all the officials were there, Hanyang City sent back from the front line, but there was no smile on the faces of the ministers, and the 30,000 Song troops in Hanyang City were all annihilated, however, under the strong defense of the Song army, the Zheng army killed more than 50,000 people.

In this war, Zheng Guo lost more!

Fortunately, the Song army was successfully prevented from advancing eastward, Yue Yancheng was temporarily worry-free, and the arrogance of the Song army was struck, and the War of Resistance against Japan lasted for half a year, Zheng Guo achieved a big victory for the first time, overall, it was actually very good.

On the dragon chair, compared to when he was elected as the leader of the Northern Alliance, Li Zhao has become very declining, old, gray-haired, wrinkled face, and does not look very good in his mental state.

However, Li Mu's eyes are bright, still deep and introverted, revealing a bit of perseverance and stubbornness, it seems that the former heroic temperament has become more and more restrained.

Even if a large area of territory on the east and west sides of Zheng Guo was occupied, Li Zhao still did not give up, and the idea of fighting for hegemony hidden in his heart was temporarily hidden, but it did not disappear, as long as he had the opportunity, he would still expose his ambitions.

Glancing at the ministers in the palace, Li Zhao opened his mouth and asked: "The territory of Zheng State is gradually shrinking, the people are constantly losing, there are ill-intentioned people in the country, waiting for an opportunity to make trouble, and strong foreign enemies are eyeing each other. ”

"Your Majesty, after more than half a year of continuous war, a large area of territory on the eastern and western fronts of Zheng State has been occupied, millions of people have been implicated in the war, dead and wounded, if we do not get strong foreign aid, I am afraid we will not have the ability to completely reverse the situation." Prime Minister Han Qi said!

The battle of Song and Zheng is a protracted war, which requires manpower, material resources, and financial resources, and Zheng Guo is currently very lacking, and in the long run, even if the Zheng army is strong in combat and short of materials and food, it will still have a very big impact on the Zheng army.

When Li Zhao heard this, he asked, "Han Qi, if you have any ideas, just say it!" ”

Han Qi said: "Today, Xing Yike led the army to recapture Hanyang City and fired the first shot of the counterattack.

In addition, Yan Chen temporarily supports Zheng Guo, there is no need to worry about the threat from the two countries, Wei Chen is willing to go to the vassal states in person, lobby the gate valve to support Zheng Guo in terms of money and food, after all, the Great Zhou was once the co-lord of the world, and the gate valves still have feelings for the Great Zhou, Zheng Guo is a descendant of the Great Zhou, so as long as Zheng Guo asks for help, the other party will definitely agree, and issue a call to gather the heroes of the world to come to Zheng Guo to fight against the Song State! ”

Han Qi did not pin his hopes on Yan and Chen, on the contrary, he found another way and turned to the gate valve family for help, after all, the gate valve is very powerful, as long as he supports Zheng Guo, things will become much simpler, and the problems of money, food, and ordnance will be solved.

Moreover, the vassal states behind the various families will also support Zheng Guo according to their ideals with fame and fortune.

Once the gate valve supports, the princes are biased towards Zheng Guo, and the heroes of the world gather in Zheng Guo, the problem of lack of manpower, material and financial resources will all be solved, and everyone will work together to deal with the Song army, even if the situation is bad, how bad is it!

Li Zhao nodded, and very much agreed with Han Qi's suggestion, the Han family was originally a gate valve, even if it contradicted the interests of some gate valves, but when Zheng Guo was alive and dead, the other party might look at Zheng Guo and temporarily put aside his grievances!

At this time, Su Qin also said: "Your Majesty, the power of the gate lord family will definitely change the situation in Zheng State, but the problem of war, Wei Chen suggested, the emperor invited the Yan army to participate in the war, which is bound to solve all the current problems!" ”

"If the Yan army wants to fight, it doesn't need to be invited by Zheng Guo, and it will participate in the battle as soon as possible!" Li Zhao said unhappily, the whole Yan Kingdom is full of lords who don't see rabbits and don't scatter eagles, and if they don't have absolute interests, they will definitely not make a move easily.

Su Qin smiled secretly and continued, "Your Majesty, haven't you forgotten the Heavenly Treasure? Pass the news on, Emperor Yan will definitely be tempted! ”
