Chapter 180: Separation
At this moment, the 20,000 horses of the Song army's Dingzhou Lufu army had broken through the Jin army's Yishui defense line and attacked the city of Yizhou; The 20,000 troops of the Song army Gaoyang Road crossed the Baigou River from Xiongzhou, broke Guiyi City, and went to Xincheng County, attacking day and night, and the situation was also very critical. Wushu immediately led 40,000 troops to Fanyang, first attacked the Xincheng Song army, Zhang saw that the Jin army was strong and immediately retreated to Waqiao Pass, demolished the pontoon bridge, and set up a wall along the border river to defend. After the Dingzhou Luyue Fei Army learned that the Jin Army came to help in a big way, and after the East Route Army retreated, they were worried that they would be outflanked by the Jin Army, and they also quickly retreated to the Guangxin Army to build a fortress for defense.
The Song army came and retreated quickly, so that Wushu couldn't help but be suspicious, and at this time, a spy reported that Emperor Zhao Er of the Song Dynasty heard that the conflict between the two countries had recurred, and returned north from Hangzhou. This evil star is back, so this time the Song army's attack is just to gain some benefits in the negotiation and give yourself some color. Or is it a tentative attack to find out what you are doing in order to launch your next attack? Wushu is even more bottomless in his heart, and it has become a top priority to find out the current intentions of Emperor Song...
"Senator Qin, did Zhao Er really return from the north and south, he wouldn't be a suspicious soldier, he had already arrived in Xiongzhou, right?" The Jin envoy Gao Qingyi was ordered by Wushu to meet the Song envoy in the name of restarting peace talks, and the two also got a chance to contact privately.
"Lord Gao, how could this happen, it is a long way from Jiangnan to Xiongzhou, and it will take at least a month to return to Beijing. Yesterday I saw the piece of music approved by him from Suzhou, and he can go to Xiongzhou day and night, isn't it really a fairy! Qin Hui chuckled and shook his head and said.
"Is he really still in Suzhou?" It is not easy for Gao Qingyi to survive step by step from a translator to the current point, so he is naturally careful in handling things, and reconfirmed.
"How could it be wrong. The chapter was transferred from Suzhou and was sealed. This can't be faked! Qin Hui said, secretly scolding Gao Qingyi in his heart. Speaking of which, both of them are Han Chinese, the difference is that one is a traitor and the other is a traitor, they are both all the way, looking at the face of the Jurchens, what kind of garlic is they pretending to be!
"Then why did he return north in a hurry after staying well in the south, is it related to the current war?" Gao Qingyi asked again.
This is indeed what the edict says, because the kingdom of Jin is in the army. So I went back north to prevent a big change, but in my opinion, it wasn't at all! Qin Hui said after selling it.
"Oh, there's something inside there? If there is no holy decree, I think those border generals and vassals would not dare to act like this and invade the Golden Realm! Gao Qingyi frowned and said, but he endured it and didn't have a seizure, Qin Hui was Zonghan's celebrity, and he was also a guest of Wushu, and he was once very good in the Jin Kingdom. has the potential to surpass his predecessors, and now he is still talking to himself, how can it not be boring.
"Hehe, as far as I know, the queen and the concubine are both pregnant for August. She will give birth next month, and her hurried return is just a worry that she can't leave her wife and children! Qin Hui said with some pride, this kind of news is not something that everyone can get. In my opinion, it is nothing more than a bluff. I think he used it when he was negotiating with the party members, just to get more benefits in the negotiations! ”
The fourth prince is anxious about this matter. Why is it a bluff? Gao Qingyi asked eagerly.
"It's very simple, the Song army is fighting with the government army and the state army, but the forbidden army does not move, if it is really fought, how can Zhao Er only use these weak brigades, and the fourth prince will quickly return to the army as soon as he arrives, and he will not use the forbidden army to support, so he doesn't want to really fight!"
"Yanjing Mansion may be a feint, but the Western Army is under the Yong Pass, and the two armies have fought several times, and the forbidden army has been dispatched, which is not like a fake!" Gao Qingyi nodded, shook his head and said.
"Now Li Gang, Zong Ze and others in the court are all warmongers, taking advantage of the opportunity of the emperor's southern tour to grant them the right to make decisions, they are free to provoke and try to expand the situation, and then force the emperor to have to fight!" Qin Hui said leisurely, "As soon as the war is going on, I will play the emperor urgently, explain the situation and ask for a stop to the war, the emperor will play, and strictly order them to withdraw their troops, otherwise the people and horses of Hebei will retreat so quickly, the northwest is far away, and the holy decree is probably still on the way, and the result will be known in two days!" ”
"Oh, the Song army's retreat still has the merit of the Qin Senate!" HD Cinema said with a little surprise.
"Don't dare, the humble position is just to keep in mind the entrustment of the minister of state, and do your best for Dajin to repay the kindness of the encounter!" Qin Hui saluted the northeast in a manner, as if he was extremely respectful.
"If you can stop the fire, Senator Qin should be the first to take the lead, but I don't understand, how did you get Zhao Er's idea so quickly!" Gao Qingyi's heart was furious, this Qin Hui really gave him a ladder to go to the room, if it wasn't for the fourth prince to lead the troops, where would the Song army retreat so quickly!
"Master Gao doesn't know, Li Gang is stubborn, Zong Ze is old and stubborn, the two of them claim to be heroes of the two dynasties, and often directly advise and coerce the Holy Lord to send troops to the Northern Expedition as soon as possible to welcome back the abolished emperor, but they don't want to think about the abolished emperor in our hands, once he is rescued, how can Zhao Er deal with himself, will he give up the throne? This alone can conclude that Zhao Er will not really use troops against Dajin, but the two of them are inclined to the government and the opposition, Zhao Er does not have a deep foundation in the court, and there is still a place with the help of the two of them, so they have to give them face. Qin Hui said with a smile.
"Well, there's some truth!" Gao Qingyi smacked and touched, one mountain does not tolerate two tigers, and then get the abolished emperor back to the Southern Dynasty There will be three emperors, how could Zhao Er do such a stupid thing!
"Yes, Lord Gao went back to inform the fourth prince and the prime minister that there is no need to be entangled with Zhao Er about the abolition of the emperor, it is a trouble now, and the Song State can use this as an excuse to go north at any time, and Li Gang, Zong Ze and others can also occupy the court. And willing to exchange the abolished emperor for the eldest prince, then the Song court has no reason to use troops, and it also makes Li Gang and others lose the foundation of their foothold, at that time, Zhao Er's lonely palm is difficult to speak, and he is trapped in the battle for the throne, where is there still the heart to fight, if the abolished emperor can take the throne, what does Dajin want is afraid that he will not be willing to give it with both hands? Qin Hui said triumphantly, as if the situation was all under his control.
"Senator Qin is worthy of being a minister, resourceful, and valued by the minister of state and the fourth prince, this is indeed a plan to kill two birds with one stone!" After listening to Qin Hui's high-level comments, Gao Qingyi was fooled, thinking about it, it was really like that.
"Don't dare, whether this matter can succeed still requires the cooperation of the fourth prince, agreeing to exchange the abolished emperor, even if Zhao Er returns to Beijing, he will not be instigated by Li Gang and others to send troops to the Northern Expedition, and I can contact my colleagues in the DPRK and Shilin Dahao to jointly write a book, and Jin Xibing, welcome back the abolished emperor, Zhao Er's throne is the throne of the emperor, which is not in line with etiquette, at that time, as long as the minister of state supports it again, so that the abolished emperor will ascend the throne, and the Southern Dynasty can make a profit!" Qin Hui painted a bright future for Dajin, he knew that he could not say that he could move the emperor, and if he wanted to ascend the throne, he had to go to the Jin Kingdom to change horses.
"Senator Qin, I will report to the fourth prince about the exchange, the important thing is to stop the Southern and Northern Expeditions first, find out Zhao Er's thoughts, and make countermeasures!" Gao Qingyi understood a little at this time, his mother's Qin Hui was fooling himself, he wanted to be the prime minister of the Southern Dynasty, so he advocated the benefits of exchange, but you are willing, the fourth prince and the second prince are still unwilling, and finally determined the storage position, seized the power, and then let the eldest prince go back to stir up, so he changed his words.
"Please inform the fourth prince that it will take time for Zhao Er to return to Beijing, and there is no will to use troops against Dajin, and now the battle between the two armies is just Li Gang and others to gain power, so there is no need to worry too much!" Qin Hui thought about it and said his judgment again, Gao Qingyi couldn't squeeze anything new, so he went back to his life.
Wushu sneered after hearing Gao Qingyi's return, and was noncommittal, now Wu Qimai has suffered a stroke and is bedridden, if he changes Wanyan Zongqi back now, won't he feel uncomfortable? Even if Wu Qimai does not pass on the throne to him according to the agreement, the teenage little emperor will make people covet it, and the people of Wu Qimai's family have always been dissatisfied with the succession of the throne, and they want to turn the tables.
From this and that, Wushu also has a score in his heart about Zhao Ta's return to the abolished emperor, and he is afraid that Zong Xuan will come back to make trouble, and the placement of the abolished emperor will definitely be a headache, but Wushu also made a judgment that the Song army's attack was a feint. He analyzed that Zhao Er's action was just to appease the main battle faction in the DPRK and China, otherwise 'welcoming back the King of Liao' would not be empty words, and this move could save some face at the negotiation table, and also adapt to the situation, so as to maintain his resolute attitude of resisting Jin and give an explanation to the superiors.
But Zhao Er has always been cunning, do not play cards according to common sense, Wushu of course did not dare to take it lightly, now the two Song armies attacking Yanjing Mansion have retreated, only Juyong Pass is still fighting fiercely, he knows that the Dao Juyong Pass is lost, Yanjing City is in danger, maybe this is just as Qin Hui said that Li Gang and others want to cook raw rice into rice, creating the illusion of a big victory, forcing Zhao Er to enter the war in an all-round way.
Thinking of this, Wushu decided to use the time when Zhao Er was on his way back to the north to concentrate his forces to defeat the enemy advancing eastward, so that he could not only thwart the 'conspiracy' of Li Gang and others, but also gain military merit for himself. So Wushu left a team of 10,000 people in Fanyang just in case, he led the Pingzhou reinforcements to Changping overnight, in exchange for Wanyan Zongfu to garrison Yanjing City, as for Qin Hui's suggestion, he can only wait for the coming day...
Qin Hui still stayed in Xiongzhou, constantly informing the Jurchens of Zhao Tan's return to the north, and at the same time successively wrote to the emperor about the disadvantages of starting a war, saying that only peace talks can solve the problems between the two countries, and the necessary concessions can be exchanged for lasting peace! His proposition won the response of a small group of people in the court, needless to say, the frustrated officials and unfortunate royal nobles in the lower field, who also hoped that the return of the 'Liao King' would bring them a happy life.
But just as Qin Hui was writing hard every day to denounce the main battle faction and run around for peace, the 'Asking for Jin Yuanwen' spread to Xiongzhou, which was tantamount to a bolt from the blue for him, and in his surprise, he had not forgotten his mission and was about to send the information to the Jin Kingdom, but he found that his residence had been blocked, and the soldiers standing guard had been replaced by soldiers of the Tiger Wing Army...
