Wanyan Xian also went from Zhongjing to Xijing, pursued the Liao lord for more than 3,000 miles, took advantage of the situation to seize Xijing, and conquered the Monan Zhubu, but Yelu Yanxi slipped through the net. The south of Yinshan Mountain is included in the territory of Jinguo. However, the rapid development of the military caused the battle line to extend too long in the east-west direction, and at this time, Yelu Yanxi still had more than 100,000 Liao troops around him, and they were flowing around Yinshan and would come out to invade the Jin army at any time.

The emperor is still alive, marking that the country has not been destroyed, although the cities of Shanxi are not stable, the rebellion in the conquered areas is not frequent, and the Yunzhong Mansion and the Western Kyoto are rebellious. The remnants of the Liao army remained on the sidelines, the surrendered Liao army was on the opposite side, and the back of the people's hearts in the conquered area was difficult to capture, and a huge crisis was lurking in secret.

After the defeat of Dezhou on the way back to Xijing to quell the rebellion, the development of the situation has made him powerless, if there is any trouble, the situation of the Xijing Jin Army is even more unoptimistic, he is afraid that there will be some mistakes, and he has repeatedly sent people to the emperor's brother for help, hoping that he will go south to conquer in person, but the situation has developed more rapidly, not only the Western Xia mixed in, but he was also forced by the Texas army to be in danger...

Ah Guta also knows the military significance of his personal expedition, if he can pursue and capture the Tianzuo Emperor, then his personal expedition will shine and go down in history forever. In June, Ah Gu ordered his younger brother Wu Qi to buy the prison state, and he led the Jin army to conquer the Liao country, and on the way he learned that there were two more emperors in the Liao country, and Wan Yan Xian was also defeated into Shuozhou under the blow of the Xia army and the Texas 'Liao army' and then there was no news!

………

Wan Yan Xian has also been more miserable in the past few days, although there is no pursuit of the Texas army, but there is more harassment by the Song army, these people not only ignore their identity as the commander of the Dajin Kingdom. He even did some things that fell into the ground. Because he refused to lay down his arms, he walked into a prisoner of war camp. The Song army did not provide them with a single grain ration. But starvation is a small matter, and a loss of festival is a big thing. He still held on.

He was determined to starve to death to serve the country, but his gang of unproductive people couldn't stand it, and whenever the Song army outside the cordon had a meal, they looked at other people's rice bowls and drooled. He had long heard that the Song people were good at business, but he didn't expect that these soldiers were all geniuses, and they actually started trading with their own soldiers, and set up a black market in the dead of night.

It's a veritable 'black market', where a pancake costs 200 yuan, and a slice of meat that's not much thicker than straw paper is added to it. The price is going to double, and it's impossible if you want to eat without seven or eight dollars. But although the price of these things is clearly marked, even if a soldier has money, who will carry so many copper coins on him, it is not as convenient as gold and silver, and there is no small name here, and the estimate of how much depends on the conscience of the Song army of the transaction.

Those who have money to buy food are all money fans, and most people throw away everything they can throw when they run away, and it doesn't matter, the soldiers of the Song Army still have a barter business. A long knife can be exchanged for five cooking cakes, and if there is a gap, there are only two without the scabbard; The armor was still more sought-after, and the Song soldiers bid higher. It's all calculated by the catty, a catty of a cookcake, if you are lucky. A pancake in iron armor equipped with an iron float can be eaten by ten people for a day.

These people are not picky eaters anyway, and they need small things like saddles, bows and arrows, and even short knives. Almighty gives a price. Now the Jurchen soldiers are all people who do not disarm and do not leave their swords, not because they are afraid of the attack of the Song army. Instead, I was worried that my things would be accidentally taken away and the next meal would be gone. Even if he slept with Yan Xian, he found that the eyes of his soldiers were always spinning on his long knife...

"Master Lu, the three-day deadline will be reached tomorrow, if they don't leave, will we really use force?" Zhao Li looked at the slumped Jurchens in the valley and asked, his mood is not high, how should he deal with this meeting tomorrow.

"Of course, otherwise how would they honestly admit it!" Lu Xiaoyao shook his fan and said.

"What should I do if they really run away, how can the prince explain!" Zhao Li said worriedly, the prince's order is to force, not to kill, and of course it will not work if he runs away.

"Stupid, what are you calling the Kruppers over there!" Lu Xiaoyao said.

"Master Lu, only one commander was left here, and the rest of the people left, if the Jurchens really ran, I'm afraid they won't be able to stop it!" Zhao Li said matter-of-factly, "Besides, if they don't run, we can't really use knives and guns, wouldn't it still be a gaffe!" Zhao Li said embarrassedly.

"Why don't you have an open mind, tonight you let the Krup army light more bonfires outside the boundary, get some men and horses to run back and forth a few times, make a cross-border attack posture, and cover them first! As soon as it dawns tomorrow, let the people of the Krüptes retreat, leave a few scouts to watch from afar, and you will transfer troops to surround the Jurchens and put on the appearance of a real attack. At this time, the Jurchens have already panicked, and they will definitely send someone to negotiate, send a Mouke and Meng'an to come over, you don't bother with him, and only wait for Yan Xian to come forward before talking to them! Lu Xiaoyao said.

"Master Lu, what are we talking to them about?" Zhao Li said in wonder, this is going to drive people away, what else is there to talk about.

"Negotiate the price, you should be for the sake of the broken copper and iron on them, now is the time to make a lot of money, no matter what price they offer, it is estimated that they will not refuse!" Lu Xiaoyao said with a fan on his hand, slightly excited.

"Master Lu, they've been forced to sell their pants in the past two days, what oil and water do they still have on them, let's just make an offer, what will they give?" Zhao Li was even more confused, is Master Lu crazy, no matter how powerful you are, you can squeeze a few drops of oil from a group of Huazi!

"Alas, what a real man you are!" Lu Xiaoyao sighed and said, "Do you know how much benefit the prince of the Dao Dao went to the west, in addition to making the Xixia land cession compensation?" ”

"I don't know what to do!" Zhao Li shook his head and said.

"As far as I know, there are no less than 20 million yuan, where do you think he got the money to open a bank, expand the army, and raise Zhao Yong's gang? It was all deceived by him, deceived him, the prince put two cannons under the city of Xingqing Mansion, and with a sigh, the Xixia people were busy sending him money, the gold and silver of the whole car! Lu Xiaoyao said, "But at that time, the prince had no more than 20,000 soldiers in his hands, and he couldn't afford to collect the Fuxing Qingfu at all, and the Xixia people had tens of thousands of soldiers there, but they were afraid, I believe that the prince would fight over, dare to fight over, and obediently send money, and his means are so high that people have to obey!" Lu Xiaoyao sighed.

"Then what does the prince want from the Jurchens this time?" Zhao Li didn't participate in the Western Expedition, and he didn't know that there were still these episodes in the Lu Dao, so he asked curiously.

"I don't know how to go, not all the prince's thoughts can be guessed!" Lu Xiaoyao said abruptly, the gap between himself and the prince is getting bigger and bigger, and it is difficult to figure out what he has done.

"Master Lu, I don't know much about these things, how to do a good job of the things that the prince explains, please give me some advice!" Zhao Li arched his hand and said.

"Okay, for your pitiful sake, I'll point you out, I've followed the prince for a few years, and I still have some experience!" Looking at Zhao Li's respectful appearance, Lu Xiaoyao said with great relief, "Generally speaking, people's attitudes towards fighting can be divided into three categories: they can fight and are willing to fight; Able to fight, unwilling to fight; Can't fight, and don't want to fight. There is rarely a fourth situation: you can't fight, but you are willing to fight - that belongs to the 'no-do to find the type of fighting'. ”

"But there are also some strange things that go against the sky, obviously they can't fight, they don't want to fight, but they like to bluff and make a fuss to fight, creating force coercion that is not enough to fight but is infinitely close to war, our prince is one of these strange flowers." Lu Xiaoyao turned to the purpose of the prince, "There are many benefits to doing this, just like juggling in the Kaifeng tile, it looks real, but in fact, it is all fake..."

"Master Lu, wait a minute!" Zhao Li was shocked when he heard this, where is this experience is simply a treasure, he quickly spread out the paper and took a pen to record.

"This kind of war acrobatics that are not for the sake of 'real fighting' can concentrate on the internal and refresh the spirit externally, but the ultimate goal is to provoke the opponent, expose his weaknesses, and then take the opportunity to disrupt the opponent so that he cannot do his right thing and distract his attention; Lu Xiaoyao saw that Zhao Li was serious, and he was in a good mood, and even preached with a gesture.

"Of course, it's not easy to play this trick well, you have to grasp the trick." Lu Xiaoyao talked about the key points, slowed down his speech and said, "First, we must be 'real', the more realistic the better; The third is to be 'fine', not really stick to the old book, and if you can't bear it, you will make a big plan; the fourth is to be 'two', master the heat, the two 'two' meet, and the more 'two' wins! ”

"Oh, Master Lu is really tall, how can we crack this situation if we encounter it?" Zhao Li is really convinced, this kind of 'crooked and evil way' can only be used by the prince, people like Lu Xiaoyao can see the flaws, and he is willing to bow down.

"Hehe, it's actually not difficult!" Lu Xiaoyao seemed to remember something, and said with a wry smile, "Sometimes people are completely blinded by this illusion, I don't know whether it is a trap or just an empty city plan, if you can't see the mystery clearly, the 'honest person' will inevitably suffer, and the 'real person' will be deceived." As long as you recognize its essence, it is not difficult, but people advance and I retreat, and people annoy me quietly; People are hard and I am hard, and people are determined by me; People bet on me, people cheat me! ”…

At night, the outside of the camp was still very lively, the bonfire reflected half of the sky, the party and the Kryu army wanted to break into the camp several times to chase and kill the Jurchens, but the Jurchens did not dare to engage in the battle and moved to the Song army camp, trying to find support. Zhao Li was not affected by the outside at all, and transcribed what he had learned during the day on his 'training notes', and after thinking about it, he wrote four words on the frontispiece 'provocative war'!
