Since Zhang Jun and Wang De suddenly withdrew their troops, Yue Fei has been a little uneasy in his heart.

Yue Fei is not worried about the situation on the battlefield, because the difficulties encountered on the battlefield can be overcome one by one through his own efforts; What he was worried about was the attitude of Emperor Gaozong and the imperial court towards this military dispatch.

Since the change of prime minister in Shaoxing for eight years, the policy of the imperial court has become extremely conservative, and it is only interested in making peace with the Jin state. It's just that for a Jurchen nation that started with aggression, before it completely hurts him, unilateral seeking peace is tantamount to carving a boat for a sword.

Therefore, Yue Fei said angrily: "Dog and sheep have to have an alliance!" Such a sentence.

It was precisely because Yue Fei saw through the essence of the Jin Kingdom and was convinced that the wolf and the sheep could not reach an alliance, so although there was no war in the past few years, the Yue family army has maintained high-intensity training

Jin Guo's breaking of the contract and sending troops in Shaoxing in the past ten years was actually Yue Fei's biggest surprise in the past few years.

After recuperating for a period of time, the Jurchens finally reopened their bloody mouths, revealing their fangs that wanted to invade and eat people.

According to the unspoken rules that have been used by the Great Song Dynasty for more than a hundred years, and according to the moral requirements of "self-cultivation" that Confucian theorists have always emphasized, in any case, Qin Hui, who only thinks about making peace with the Jin State, must resign to apologize to the people of the world.

According to the general logic, after Qin Hui stepped down, no matter who the new prime minister was, he would only be better than Qin Hui, at least he would not get close to Jin Guo without a bottom line.

However, Qin Hui's brazenness and Emperor Gaozong's inaction disappointed all the Song people.

Qin Hui's love stack didn't go, which made Yue Fei even more angry.

However, according to the rules of the imperial court. Frontier guards are not allowed to intervene in or interfere in the internal affairs of the imperial court. For Qin Hui's clown-like performance. Yue Fei and Han Shizhong also had no choice but to stare dryly.

But. Yue Fei also has his own plans.

As long as the Jin soldiers dare to invade the south, as long as the imperial court orders him to send troops, he will definitely do his best to attack the Jin soldiers who come to attack; So that the imperial court knows that the undefeated Jin soldiers are already yesterday's yellow flowers, and now the strength of the Yue family's army has surpassed that of the Jin soldiers, and they can easily defeat them.

It is precisely because of this idea that Yue Fei is in this Northern Expedition. Every battle is the most aggressive all-attack style of play, and the previous step by step is abandoned, and the battle is steady.

Whether it is offensive or defensive, as long as it is against the Jin soldiers, the Yuejia army is bound to go out of the city to fight, and the Jin soldiers will attack on the plains and fields, and will never gather danger to defend.

In this kind of move, Yue Fei wanted to convey a message to Jin Bing, and the Yue family army wanted to fight a decisive battle in the best way of Jin Bing, and also won the battle.

Yue Fei not only wanted to win the war. It is also necessary to break the confidence of the golden soldiers.

"It's easy to shake the mountain, but it's hard to shake the Yue family's army!". This is the respect and sigh from the enemy's golden soldiers.

If you want to compare the number of Jin soldiers killed, Yue Fei may not be comparable to Wu Jue. However, throughout the Great Song Dynasty, the Yuejia army was the only force that could compete fairly with the elite hoplites of the alien race in the field, and was able to defeat them with dignity.

It must be admitted that in this Northern Expedition, the development of the situation on the battlefield was even smoother than Yue Fei had envisioned; Or rather, Jin Bing's weakness was even worse than Yue Fei had originally thought.

Wanyan Wushu poured the strength of the whole army into the hands of Liu Qi's 20,000 eight-character army in Shunchang City.

According to the ranking of the Song Dynasty's military strength, the strength of the Bazi Army should be below the middle, and it cannot be compared with the main field armies of the imperial court such as the Yuejia Army, the Wu Family's Army, and the Han Family's Army.

Liu Qi's 20,000-character army's victory completely ignited the fire in Yue Fei's heart.

Therefore, Yue Fei divided the Yuejia army into several ways - Zhang Xian in the center, Wang Gui to the west, and Niu Gao to the east, and killed the Jin soldiers together, so as to completely defeat Yan Wushu's army.

According to Yue Fei's idea, the Yue family army not only wants to win, but also to win a big victory, a big victory in a short time.

Yue Fei knew very well in his heart that there was not enough time he could control

In this war, Wanyan Wushu was defeated in successive battles and suffered heavy losses, but he was not blamed too much. The reason for this is to paraphrase Mencius. The statement in "King Liang Hui" -

"If you don't do it, you can't do it."

To be fair, the various arrangements of Wanyan Wushu in this war are still very targeted.

At the beginning, against Liu Qi's 20,000 eight-character army, all the 130,000 golden soldiers of the Golden Vulture were dispatched, with the momentum of a lion fighting a rabbit, killing chickens and using a bull's knife to capture Shunchang Mansion as soon as possible.

When Shunchang was defeated, after learning that the Yuejia army was dispatched, Wanyan Wushu immediately contracted his defense and concentrated all his forces in the Central Plains to Kaifeng Mansion and several important towns around it.

After encountering the Yuejia army, he first lost two games in a row in Yingchang Mansion and Huaining Mansion; After Yan Wushu, he sent the most elite abducted horse cavalry to Yuncheng to sneak attack, implement decapitation tactics, and target Yue Fei.

After losing two battles in a row in Yuncheng and Xiaoshanghe, Wanyan Wushu turned his arrow and aimed at Yingchang Mansion, the location of the largest granary of the Yuejia army.

From the encounter after concentrating his strength, to the whimsical decapitation tactic, to the destruction of the granary, and so on, for a commander, Wanyan Wushu has done his best to exhaust his ability; As for his failure, or to paraphrase a later generation:

"It's not that the national army is incompetent, it's just that the communist army is too cunning"

Yue Fei's original idea was to use great victories and successive victories to stimulate Emperor Gaozong, so that he could renew his ambition and support the Northern Expedition.

In terms of the logic of thinking at that time, the feasibility of Yue Fei's idea was still very high.

In ancient times, being an official required political achievements, and the Song Dynasty called the inspection of officials "grinding and surveying".

Being an emperor also requires political achievements. There are only two criteria for judging the quality of an emperor: the first is people's livelihood, and the second is national defense and diplomacy.

In China's tradition, it is generally important to prioritize people's livelihood and national defense; Therefore, whether or not he can expand his territory has almost become an important criterion for judging whether an emperor is a clear monarch.

For example, in the Han Dynasty, Emperor Wen and Emperor Jing attached great importance to the people's livelihood and adopted a policy of self-cultivation and recreation; And Emperor Xiaowu specialized in foreign wars. Defeat the Xiongnu, annex Korea, send envoys to the Western Regions, and so on. Wasted treasury.

Evaluation from the afterlife. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty is far higher than Emperor Wen and Emperor Jing, this is the reason.

According to Yue Fei's idea, as long as he could achieve successive victories, he could let Emperor Gaozong know that the soldiers of the Yue family army were capable of defeating the Jin soldiers, recovering their homeland, and even recovering the Youyun Prefectures, so that Emperor Gaozong could reach heights that his ancestors could not reach.

A generation of Mingjun. Break new ground.

What emperor doesn't like such glory!

I have to say that Yue Fei's thoughts are very plump, but the reality is very skinny; And the reality of skinny only comes from one person, the biggest enemy in Yue Fei's life - Qin Hui.

Qin Hui's heart was very clear that since the day when Jin Bing suddenly broke the contract and sent troops to invade the south, his position as prime minister had become precarious.

Although he was able to get away with it, it was because of Emperor Gaozong's laziness, his own black box scheming, and his own brazenness.

In fact, the victories of all the Song Dynasty soldiers, including Yue Fei and Liu Qi, on the battlefield were a negation and ridicule of his surrender policy of Qin Hui.

The reason is simple. The theoretical basis for all surrender negotiations is based on the fact that the strength of the country is inferior to that of the other side.

Only if you can't beat your opponent. will think of surrender or peace; If your own strength is stronger than your opponent's, why should you grovel and sue for peace with your opponent?

This is a truth that children can understand!

For Qin Hui, the biggest problem is that the label of peace on his body is too obvious.

Since Qin Hui came back from the north gilding in the fourth year of Jianyan, he began to make a big show and preach peace everywhere, and his most famous theory is that "the south people return to the south, and the north people return to the north".

In the peace conference he presided over in the eighth year of Shaoxing, the humiliation that the Southern Song court, including Emperor Gaozong, had to endure, had broken the psychological bottom line of most scholars.

And now the successive victories on the battlefield are not the greatest mockery of his previous surrender policy?

It can be said that the more victories the officers and soldiers of the Song Dynasty won on the frontline battlefield, the more dangerous his position as prime minister of Qin Hui became.

Therefore, no matter what, he Qin Hui must stop this war and quell all sources of risk.

From this point of view, Qin Hui and Yue Fei are on the same page, and they cannot stand on the other

In fact, in addition to fighting wits and courage with Wanyan Wushu on the frontal battlefield, Yue Fei was also engaged in another battle in the Lin'an Mansion in the rear.

In this battle, Yue Fei was still the attacking side.

Yue Fei's offensive method is to use continuous good news and battle reports that shocked one side to remind the emperor that you can also become the overlord of one side and a generation of Ming monarchs that will be passed down through the ages.

Compared with Yue Fei, Qin Hui was naturally the defensive side.

Qin Hui's means of defense were: first, to block the news as much as possible, so that the emperor did not know the latest movements on the front-line battlefield; Secondly, mobilize his own henchmen to instill in the emperor the idea that the Jin soldiers are invincible, and let the emperor order Yue Fei to withdraw his troops as soon as possible.

Of course, Qin Hui will not take action in person.

Qin Hui since Shaoxing eight years after the beginning of the independence, especially in the peace with the Jin people, authorized by Emperor Gaozong, in the important departments such as the reading and the imperial history platform have all cultivated their own cronies, and now when the war is pervasive, of course, it is Qin Hui's henchmen who shot.

The first to shoot in the palace served Shi Luo Ruji.

Luo Ruji played to Emperor Gaozong and said: "There are few soldiers, the people are poor and the country is lacking, if Yue Fei goes deep, wouldn't it be dangerous!" May Your Majesty send down the edict and order the class teacher. ”

Regarding Luo Ruji's statement, the entire Yushitai responded collectively, and then submitted it to Lord Qin Hui for review, and then reported it to the emperor for approval.

This is the performance of certain literati in China, and it is no different from all dynasties to the past.

In their eyes, there is only their own vital interests, and there is no black and white right or wrong; As for national interests, national righteousness, and so on, whatever!

Emperor Gaozong approved this collective proclamation, considering that most of the cadres thought this way and felt that it would better reflect the interests of the majority of the people...... (To be continued......)
