Chapter 35: Xi Yin's Tricks

After Yan Xiyin coughed, he said slowly, "Yue Fei has repeatedly broken our army, which is a big trouble for us. But although this person is brave and strategic, he only has a small plan, not a big plan. Why do I say that he has a small plan but not a big plan? It was precisely because he dared to lead tens of thousands of troops to cross the river to the north. ”

Speaking of this, Wanyan Xiyin deliberately stopped talking and swept the generals in the tent with his eyes, trying to see admiration on the faces of which generals. But what disappointed Wanyan Xiyin was that he only saw Wanyan Zonghan's beating eyes, and the other generals were at a loss.

Alas, it's all a bunch of reckless people. The old man seems to be going to play the piano to the cow. Wanyan Xiyin sighed and continued, "If I were Yue Fei, after defeating Sha Guzhi, I should go east with the whole army, go to Jingxi Road, and confront Wanyan Zongfu. You must know that Ying Tianfu is Yue Fei's foundation. Once Ying Tianfu is lost, the Protector Army will be nothing more than a powerful grass army. But as for Yue Fei, not only did he forget about the safety of Tianfu, but he also became arrogant. Dare to challenge my army of more than 200,000 with less than 40,000 troops, isn't this asking for your own death? But if we take advantage of Yue Fei's arrival to defeat Niu Gao Wang Yan, will Yue Fei still come to Mengzhou to die? Definitely not, he will definitely lead his army to flee back to the south bank of the Yellow River. In this case, why don't we leave Niu Gao Wang Yan for the time being and use it as bait to lure Yue Fei, a big fish, into the bait? ”

Seeing Yan Xiyin's expressions of course, Zong Han couldn't help but sneer, "My Prime Minister, don't forget, there are still more than 40,000 people in the Niu Gao Wang Yan Department. It's not bait, it's a big fish that can eat people. If they were to join forces with Yue Fei, wouldn't they become fish demons that could not be destroyed? My Prime Minister, fighting a war is not as simple as writing poems. ”

Wanyan Xiyin heard the sarcasm in Zong Han's mouth, and immediately glared and asked, "Zong Han is extremely fierce, Yue Fei has a total of tens of thousands of troops?" ”

Zong Han replied, "Less than forty thousand." ”

Wanyan Xiyin continued to ask, "Excluding the military horses of Huazhou and Kaide Mansion, how many troops are there here?" ”

Zong Han didn't understand what Yan Xiyin meant for a while, and replied casually, "There are 70,000 Jurchen iron cavalry and 200,000 Han'er troops, and there are more than 40,000 people these days, and now there are more than 150,000." ”

Wanyan Xiyin suddenly laughed. Zong Han said angrily, "Wanyan Xiyin, don't think that as the prime minister, you can talk about the military discussion. ”

Wanyan Xiyin still looked up to the sky and laughed. After laughing for a while, he finally spoke, "Zong Hanbo is extremely fierce, don't you understand what I'm laughing at?" I'm laughing at you, my Zong Hanbo is extremely fierce. I laugh at you for being a Jurchen handsome in vain, leading hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers, but you are afraid of a little Yue Fei. ”

Zong Han said angrily, "Nonsense! ”

Wanyan Xiyin walked up to Zong Han, glared at him and said, "I'm not talking nonsense. The number of our army is more than five times that of Yue Fei, and even if Yue Fei is allowed to join the remnants of Niu Gao Wang Yan's defeated generals, it will be less than one-third of our army. If you weren't afraid of Yue Fei, why were you in a hurry to eliminate Niu Gao Wang Yan? If you weren't afraid of Yue Fei, why didn't you even have the courage to send a large army to stop Yue Fei from crossing the river? ”

Zong Han talked about tongues, and he was not Xi Yin's enemy. Now that Wanyan Xiyin asked two questions in a row, he couldn't help but open his mouth. can only eagerly deny, "Wanyan Xiyin, you are talking nonsense again!" You don't know how to use martial arts, how do you know the joints of war? ”

Wanyan Xiyin insisted on a little and did not let go. "If you are not afraid of Yue Fei, why are you in a hurry to eliminate the two Niu Wang in order to scare away Yue Fei's army?"

Zong Han really wanted to slap Xi Yin in the face and make his scholar's head clearer. Where did Lao Tzu want to scare away Yue Fei's army, Lao Tzu wanted to take advantage of Yue Fei's arrival, first destroy Yue Fei's auxiliary army, and then the whole army dealt with Yue Fei. But where do you, the Song people in the golden skin, know these things?

Jin Shisan saw that his eldest brother was not Xi Yin's opponent, and hurriedly said with a smile on the side, "Prime Minister, you must know that the war is dangerous, where is there any perfect strategy?" When Dajin rose, the battle of Hubu Dagang, how could the Liao people never think that hundreds of thousands of troops would be defeated by the hands of my Dajin 3,000 Jingjia before the war, right? ”

Wanyan Xiyin sneered, looked at Jin Thirteen and said, "Old Thirteen, what do you mean by this?" Do you think that a Yue Fei child can be compared to my great grandfather of the Jin Kingdom? ”

Jin 13 can be regarded as having finished serving Yan Xiyin's answer. The reason why he mentioned the battle of Hubu Dagang was to remind Wan Yan Xiyin that the victory or defeat of the war is never about the number of people. But he didn't expect that Wanyan Xiyin directly led the question to Grandpa Tai.

Although deep down in Jin Shisan's heart, he did bring Yue Fei to the same dangerous position as Wanyan Aguda. But he didn't dare say it in front of so many people. Who is Wanyan Aguta? That was the god of their Jurchens. In the Jurchen tribe, when mentioning the name of Wanyan Aguda, which one does not have a master character at the end?

If Jin Shisan dared to say that Yue Fei was the young man's Wanyan Aguda or something, if he didn't say anything else, the eldest brother Zong Han would be the first to cut him.

Seeing that the Zong Han brothers were dumbfounded by their own questions, Wanyan Xiyin couldn't help but be even more proud. He glanced at the angry Zong Han with contempt, and said secretly in his heart, Zong Han, which Zong Han, you used to rely on military merits and repeatedly humiliated me in front of Taizu. Today, Lao Tzu finally let out a bad breath.

However, of course, Wanyan Xiyin was not just to get over his addiction, he already had a clever plan in his heart to eliminate Yue Fei. Now that Zong Han was confused, he decided to bring it up while the iron was hot.

"Zong Han is extremely fierce, since you are not afraid of Yue Fei, then let Yue Fei kill on the southern line of Mengzhou. Of course, our army cannot stop attacking these days. Can't let Niu Gao Wang Yan catch his breath. We can continue to let those worthless Han dogs attack the camp, and the Jurchen athletes can recuperate. ”

Wanyan Xiyin's words resonated with the Jurchen generals in the tent. Even Zong Han's personal general, Samoulu, nodded. Jurchen athletes are good at galloping on horses, how can they dismount their horses and carry knives and attack the camp like Han dogs?

Zong Han is old in military affairs, of course, he understands that Wanyan Xiyin's words seem reasonable, but in fact, they are all nonsense. But seeing that all the generals in the tent were moved by Wanyan Xiyin's words, Zong Han had no choice but to ask, "If Yue Fei and Niu Gao Wang Yan join forces, the southern line of Mengzhou will definitely be solid." How to eliminate Yue Fei, and ask the Prime Minister for advice. ”

Wanyan Xiyin said triumphantly, "You regard this Yue Fei as a tiger, but in the old man's opinion, this person is just a person who sells his head. With a little trickery, the old man can let Yue Fei be captured. ”

Zong Han and Jin Shisan glanced at each other, and they both shook their heads helplessly. When has this been, this old man is still selling.

Wanyan Xiyin's clever plan was to wait for Yue to fly to Mengzhou, and Zong Han could send Sa Moulu to bypass Jishui and suddenly kill behind the rebels. When the time comes, the two armies will attack, and Yue Fei can be captured.

After listening to Yan Xiyin's strategy, Yan Zonghan was about to run away. Is that a trick? If we could cross Jishui, we would have crossed Jishui a long time ago. But all the bridges above Jishui were destroyed. And in Jishui, there is also an elusive Zhang Hengshui army. Hundreds of small, nimble warships came and went, repeatedly blocking Zong Han's dream of detouring.

Wanyan Xiyin said in his chest, "The fine work has already been reported, and at this time, Jishui has already formed a thick layer of ice, but it can run a war horse without cracking." Zhang Heng's Han dog's sailor army has already retreated into the Yellow River, and it can no longer block the way of our army. ”

Zong Han finally roared uncontrollably. "Wanyan Xiyin, I know that you don't like the old man, but don't forget, you are also a Jurchen. Our Jurchen population is only a few million, and this time we are going south, which is already the strength of the country. Do you know that if the most powerful middle route army is defeated, the other two road armies can only retreat to Yanyun even if they make great progress. The total number of Song people is hundreds of times that of my Dajin, and they can withstand ten defeats, but my Dajin cannot withstand one defeat. Don't forget, you're just my deputy. The major military strategy must be decided by Yan Zonghan. I know you're trying to provoke me with my face. Then I don't want to lose face now. I can honestly tell you that in the face of Yue Fei, I am not sure of victory. ”

Wanyan Xiyin couldn't help but open his mouth when he saw Zong Han, who had a halberd, and no longer dared to speak with a three-inch tongue. He didn't expect Zong Han to really dare to admit in front of the generals that he was not sure of defeating Yue Fei.

As a great talent who can create Jurchen characters, Wanyan Xiyin naturally has the temper of a talented person. Most of the talented people in the world have the same temper, whether they are talented people in the Song Kingdom or talented people in the Jin Kingdom. They all love face very much, and they value face more than life. Of course, they are also somewhat afraid of death.

In the face of Wanyan Zonghan, who didn't even want face, Wanyan Xiyin naturally had nothing to do. However, he was still a little unconvinced and asked, "Zong Hanbo is extremely strong, I just want to ask, why can't our army step on the ice and cross the Jishui?" ”

Zong Han asked Yan Xiyin rhetorically, "Prime Minister, do you know that water thief Zhang Heng?" ”

Wanyan Xiyin shook his head a little dazedly, and said uncertainly, "I only heard that this person was originally a Liangshan thief. ”

Zong Han nodded and said, "Yes, this person was originally a Liangshan thief. But this person is the most fierce Liangshan thief who is not afraid of death. Do you know that in the spring of this year, this man, with only a rabble of more than 3,000, dared to intercept the return of our army on the Yellow River. Marshal Zongwang was blocked by him on the south bank for three days in a row. This person commands a naval army, which can be described as unparalleled in the world. Our army crossed Jishui five times, but was repulsed by his naval army. This person is currently colluding with Yue Fei, and there are more than 10,000 sailors under his command, and more than 300 warships of all sizes, how can he be stopped by the thin layer of ice. If you don't believe it, you can send thousands of Han'er troops to test it, and you will definitely not be able to cross the water. ”

As soon as Wanyan Xiyin heard that Zhang Heng had fought with Zong Wang, he immediately stopped talking. Since Zongwang can't kill this person, this person is definitely not easy to match. However, Wanyan Xiyin still decided to send thousands of Han troops to test the crossing of Jishui tomorrow, and if he could cross it, everything would naturally be fine. If you can't get through, you have to see how this Liangshan Kou can survive on the frozen Jishui.

Zong Han's lion roar shocked Wanyan Xiyin, the other generals were his descendants for many years, even if someone had secretly taken refuge in Wanyan Zongwang, but on such an occasion, naturally he would not come out to take wings.

Zong Han governed the army strictly, and he was really beheaded by him according to military law, and even Taizong had no way to punish him.

Zong Han glanced at the general in the tent, pulled out the short knife in his waist, and cut the case in front of him into two pieces with one sword. "Servant Sanlie, Tuoba Yewu, I order you two to lead 10,000 Jurchen Jian'er and 40,000 Han'er army, starting tonight, to attack Niu Gao Wang Yan day and night. Within three days, they must be routed, and if they can't, they will be cut off from your heads. ”
