Chapter 140: Persuasion
When Gao Huaiyuan was sitting in the Guannei Shuaiya, Erhu immediately presented a pile of reports, Gao Huaiyuan took them and read them one by one, and immediately nodded and said: "It seems that we expected it well, the Tartars really pointed to Fengxiang Road this time, and this time it was our old opponent who dragged the mine!" Hum! The last time he let him run, this time I'm afraid it's not so cheap! ”
Zhou Hao rarely speaks with Gao Huaiyuan on weekdays, but when he heard Gao Huaiyuan's words, he still spoke: "The question at the moment is how is the reaction on the Jin Guo's side!" With such a large-scale relocation of our troops outside the Guan, it is expected that we will not be able to avoid the eyes and ears of the Jin State, and the officials of the Fengxiang Road and Lintao Road of the Jin Country do not know what to think? ”
And Yu Jue, who was standing on the side, also nodded immediately and said: "What General Zhou said is extremely true, if we rush to send troops, maybe the people of the Jin Kingdom will use this as an excuse to make enemies with our dynasty again, and now we must have a reason to send troops!"
Gao Huaiyuan put down the information in his hand, nodded and said: "Zhou Hao, you are thinking more and more carefully, Yu Jue is not bad, but you must not forget, this time the Mongolian Tartars sent troops to attack the Jin State, not only the soldiers and horses of the West Road Tuolei, but also they also have Wokotai to lead troops to attack Tongguan, and the Mongolian Wanhu Shi Tianze Governor of the Five Roads and Ten Thousand Households went out of Weizhou to attack Jin, although the Jin Kingdom is not exhausted at the moment, there are still generals such as Wuxian and Wanyan Chen Monk, but they must be contained by the other two Mongolian armies at the moment, Unable to enter Fengxiang west to resist the strong army of Tuolei. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info At present, there are not many troops on Fengxiang Road and Lintao Road in the Jin Kingdom, and there are no nameless generals to supervise the divisions, with their strength, it is difficult to resist the Mongolian army that is dragging mines, they only have two choices, either sit back and wait for the Mongolian army to come to conquer their cities and slaughter their people, or they can only turn to our dynasty and attach themselves to our dynasty, in the hope that we will send troops against the Mongol army. So you don't have to worry that there is no excuse to send troops to Fengxiang Road, even if the officials of the Jin State do not ask us, we can also recover the old land as an excuse and send troops to Shaanxi! In the face of interests, everything is just an excuse!
Besides, I've been prepared for this! Before we left Lizhou, I had already sent people to infiltrate Fengxiang Road and Lintao Road, and started to contact the officials of the Jin State. ”
When Yu Jue heard this, he hurriedly nodded and bowed to Gao Huaiyuan and said, "What the adults said is very true, but it is too pedantic to be lowly!" Or an adult is far-sighted, and his humble position is much inferior to that of an adult! ”
"Huh! Yu Jue, you don't have to be too humble, I know that you are also a wise man, you have not been exposed to a big war at the moment, I think that in the near future, you will definitely become a town general! Hehe! All right! Don't pour me ** soup! This plan is not the credit of me alone, but also the credit of the General Staff of the Privy Council, if you look at it and think about it a little more, sooner or later it will be completed! Gao Huaiyuan smiled and waved his hand...
In late September of the third year of Shaoding, Tuo Lei finally led the troops to easily break through the defense line of the Great Wall of Jin, and led the army to attack Fengxiang Road, and the soldiers pointed directly at Qingyang.
But what made him very unhappy and uneasy was that this time Wokotai sent people into the Song Dynasty again, trying to persuade the Song people to open the way and let them use the road to attack gold, but before they entered the Song realm, they were beaten and driven back. And he heard that for this reason, Gao Huaiyuan, the privy envoy of the Southern Song Dynasty, actually entered Sichuan again in person to arrange the defense of Lizhou, so he was worried that he might have to face this difficult bone again this time.
To be honest, the last time Tuo Lei was defeated in Jiezhou, he felt that the Song people were cheating, using that kind of weapon that didn't know anything, and opportunistically defeated him for a while, if he faced the real knife and real gun, the Song people could not be his opponent at all, so he made up his mind, after capturing Fengxiang this time, he must attack Lizhou again, and let the Song people see their ferocity, and the Song people in the province did not take their Mongolian army seriously...
This time into Shaanxi, the resistance of the Jin army was very weak, many Jin troops immediately scattered as soon as they saw their Mongolian army, turned around and fled without a trace, so he had just sent troops for a few days, and he went deep into the Fengxiang Road for a hundred miles, but basically did not encounter any too decent resistance, which made him feel more comfortable, thinking that this trip to deal with the Jin people on Fengxiang Road should be a very easy thing.
When he drove his troops into Qingyang, he soon surrounded Qingyang, began to make all kinds of siege equipment, ready to attack Qingyang City, and the Jin army stationed in Qingyang was only more than 3,000 people, Qingyang defense Wang Dezhao had already learned the news of the Mongol army in advance, and began to clear the wilderness around Qingyang, drove the people into Qingyang City, and set fire to many surrounding villages to prevent the Mongol army from plundering the villages to finance the army. Wang Dezhao himself knew very well that it would be difficult for him to resist the attack of the Mongol army with his strength alone, so he sent people to Fengxiang Mansion early to find Yang Lianxing, the envoy of Shaanxi Jiedu, to ask for help, so that Yang Lianxing could send troops to aid Qingyang.
But it's a pity that Yang Lianxing has already been numb at this time, and he also learned in advance that the Mongolian army was going to attack Fengxiang Road, and the source of this news was strange, it was actually transmitted to him by someone from the Southern Song Dynasty.
However, the imperial court gave him a chance to organize his own troops and horses to resist the attack of the Mongol army! After getting this instruction from the imperial court, Yang Lianxing almost cried, he had a small Fengxiang Road, a total of only twenty or thirty thousand soldiers and horses, and they were scattered all over Fengxiang Road to defend it, and the soldiers and horses that could be used were not more than 10,000, and the number of troops left behind in Fengxiang Mansion was only about 9,000 people, among which there were still many old and young leftovers, with the strength at hand, let alone defend the entire Fengxiang Road, even if he was asked to gather all the troops, guarding Fengxiang Mansion was a task that could not be completed at all.
At this moment, Yang Lianxing also understood a truth, the Jin Dynasty can't count on it at the moment, and he also heard the information sent to him by the Southern Song Dynasty, saying that this time the Mongolian army has requisitioned a total of more than 100,000 troops, and the soldiers are divided into three ways to attack the Jin State, and there are two other ways to storm Tongguan and the Yellow River, even if the Jin State court has the heart to help him, I am afraid that there is no such strength!
So he can only rely on his own strength to defend Fengxiang Road, but this matter is clear, he can't guard Fengxiang Road no matter what...
Just when Yang Lianxing was at a loss for how to defend Fengxiang Road, early in the morning of September 5 in the third year of Shaoding, Yang Lianxing suddenly heard that a Song envoy came to Fengxiang Mansion to meet him.
He couldn't figure out how the Song people could be so polite at this time, and actually sent an envoy to visit at this time, so he was patient and asked this Song envoy to be integrated into his mansion, and gave a seat for this Song envoy to sit down and talk...
This Song envoy was very young, and this time he only brought a dozen guards to Fengxiang Mansion, so he came to his mansion so generously, after asking the name, Yang Lianxing learned that this person's name was Zhang Fang, and he was a staff member of the Southern Song Dynasty Sichuan Envoy.
After Yang Lianxing figured out these things, he asked Zhang Fang: "I don't know what happened when the ambassador came to us this time?" ”
Zhang Fang clenched his fists and replied: "Actually, Xia Guan is just on the order of my high minister, and he is here to talk to the people of the country about the matter of the Imperial Guard Fengxiang Road!" ”
Yang Lianxing's heart jumped a few times, and he didn't understand what Zhang Fang meant, so he asked unhappily: "What does the ambassador mean by this?" This official guarding Fengxiang Road is a matter for our Jin Kingdom, so why should you have to worry about this matter in the Southern Dynasty? Yang Lianxing felt a little that he was being looked down upon, and he also felt that the Southern Song Dynasty was really a little unrighteous this time, and he actually sent someone to see his jokes at this time, and he was very unhappy in his heart, but considering that the current Jin country is an eventful season, a Mongolia has made it difficult for the Jin country to deal with, not to mention that now the Mongolian army is pointing directly at his Fengxiang Mansion, and he needs stability in the rear, and he doesn't dare to easily offend this envoy sent by the Southern Song Dynasty, so even if he is angry, he doesn't have a seizure on the spot...
Zhang Fang smiled slightly and said, "Don't be angry, and it's not too late to listen to the official first!" Guoda, according to the Xiaguan before he came, our Gao Shu Xiang told the Xiaguan that the Guoren must be worried about the Mongolian army to attack Fengxiang Road now, and our Gao Shu Xiang expected that this time the Mongolian army would attack Jin, and it would be difficult for the Jin State to draw enough troops to support the Guoren you Fengxiang Road, so with the current strength of the Guoda, it is difficult to resist the Mongolian army that invaded Fengxiang Road! I wonder if what our high minister said is true? ”
Yang Lianxing's heart moved, combined with the various information about the actions of the Mongolian army sent to him by the Southern Song Dynasty during this time, he seemed to feel something, so he forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart just now, nodded slightly, and said: "Yes and what, no, what?" ”
As soon as Zhang Fang saw Yang Lianxing's attitude, he immediately understood that it was really as Gao Huaiyuan expected, so he continued: "Lord Guo, I'm afraid this matter is not small, can you let the lower officials talk to the adults alone?" ”
Yang Lianxing was a little confused, but he felt that this matter might involve his net worth and life, and after thinking about it for a while, he waved his hand and let his idle people out of the house, leaving only two personal guards to protect his safety, after all, the Song and Jin countries have always been unfriendly, and he can't help but guard against this envoy sent by the Southern Song Dynasty.
Zhang Fang saw that Yang Lianxing had already taken away the idle people and others, leaving two guards who must be his cronies, so he opened his mouth and said to Yang Lianxing: "Our senior prime minister sent his subordinates here this time, just to ask the people of the country to judge the situation and submit to our Great Song Dynasty......"
