It took them a few years before and after the destruction of the Liao State, and they conquered the Great Song Dynasty in the south, and created the difficulty of Jingkang in history.

The small steel cannon of the past is now unstoppable.

However, there are still many crises that are easy to overlook under the strong performance.

This is also something that Wanyan Wu has always been afraid of.

Because they have completed the rise of the Yan family, they have set up too many enemies.

They created great public resentment against the slaughter of the Liao during the Liao War and the wanton slaughter of the Liao royal family.

Now Wanyan Wu Qimai also knows that the Song Dynasty is a fish and meat on the board, and it is indeed in his long-term interests to destroy the Song Dynasty, and he can also obtain a considerable amount of wealth from the Song Dynasty.

But precisely because of the destruction of the Song Dynasty, staunch war maniacs such as Wan Yan Gao, Mu Han and Wan Yan Fu appeared in the Jin Kingdom.

Their existence directly threatens the imperial power of Wanyan Wu begging.

However, when it comes to this, it has changed at this stage.

Wanyanfu suffered heavy losses in the northwest.

Sticky Han and Jin Wushu also failed to conquer the military towns of the Song Dynasty.

The Jin people's soldiers are hard to intimidate the world as much as last year.

This makes many people have to calm down and think carefully.

In the end, can they destroy the Song Dynasty?

If you can, then you can grit your teeth and fight for the last time.

If not, not to mention the loss of troops at that time, the national strength will also be consumed by the Song Dynasty.

At that time, Yelu Dashi, the former minister of the Liao State, would 100% unite with the Mongol tribes to launch a counterattack against the Jin regime.

Take 10,000 steps back and say, even if the Mongols don't fight back, as long as they establish themselves as kings, divide the Western Regions and monopolize the horse farms in the Western Regions.

It is equivalent to choking the strategic resources of the gold country.

After all, the war horses on the ancient battlefield were the core resources of all countries.

During this period, the Great Song Dynasty lacked war horses.

The Jurchens of the Jin Kingdom also lacked war horses.

When Jin Taizu Wanyan Aguta rose, the more than 3,000 horses he initially obtained were exchanged for mink and ginseng.

In fact, in the north where the Jurchens lived, it was impossible to breed war horses in the icy and snowy climate.

Therefore, throughout the Song Dynasty, Xinjiang occupied by the Mongols was a sacred place for the breeding of war horses.

Moreover, during the period of the battle between the Liao State and the Song Dynasty, the strength of the entire Song Dynasty was at its peak.

At that time, there were more than 800,000 war horses in the Liao Kingdom.

Among them, 600,000 war horses were provided by the Mongols affiliated with the Liao State.

It is conceivable that the Mongolian tribes still had a strong sense of presence during this period.

On the other hand, in the Jin Kingdom, their war horses also inherited the stock of horses after the destruction of Liao.

That kind of stock market will not continue to increase.

It's just going to be used less and less.

So much so that this time in the southern expedition, in fact, the Jin State also made a lot of effort to gather 200,000 cavalry.

In addition, the Jurchen people's way of life was hunting and fishing, and they would also farm when the climate was warmer.

They are not professional horsemen at all.

So it can't be cultivated!

Just as Wanyan Zongwang was worried about now.

Historically, the Mongols destroyed Daikim.

The Mongol cavalry almost subjected Dajin to a slaughter that was even more humiliating than the shame of Jingkang.

Why was the Jin Kingdom hung up and beaten by the Mongols in the later period?

It is because after the Mongols in the territory of the Jin State declared independence, they cut off the channels for supplying war horses to the Jin people.

Therefore, in the middle and late stages of the Jin Kingdom, the scale of cavalry was rapidly reduced.

In just ten years, the iron floating map and the abducted horse that swept Liuhe by the Golden Vulture have disappeared in the dust of history.

It was under the premise of choosing a career that the Jin people could not stop the rise of the great Genghis Khan.

Few people in the Golden Court have given in-depth consideration to these matters.

Now Wanyan Zongwang has put it forward.

As the emperor, Wanyan Wu had to think carefully, and he had to include this matter in his war preparations.

"Do you have a solution?"

"Your Majesty, the minister is not talented, but he has come up with some solutions."

"Speak quickly, I'm listening." Wanyan Wu Qimai, who had always been somewhat resistant to the culture of the Song Dynasty, also used the idiom of the Song people at this time.

Wanyan Zongfu took a sip of water, leaned on the seat weakly and gasped for a long time, and then said: "Your Majesty suggests that my Jin Kingdom temporarily make peace with the Song Dynasty. ”

"Although it is peaceful, we will maintain the Yulu provided to the Liao State by the Song Dynasty in previous years, let the Song people supply us with New Year's coins and grain, and we can promise to protect their northern border."

"This is a mutually friendly strategy, combined with the foreign strategy of the previous Song Dynasty, this method can be tried, and the success rate is very large."

"Once our Jin Kingdom and the Song people stop fighting, then we can rest and recuperate. When the time is ripe, we will destroy the Mongolian Ministry as soon as possible, and then take all the horse farms in Mongolia into our hands. ”

"When the time comes, my Dajin can raise a million cavalry at any time, and the weak Song Dynasty can only cower in the castle and develop the economy after all."

"But the Song people are weak, after all, they are stupid cowards with many people, we want to destroy the Song Dynasty, and we can clean them up at any time with our hands free."

In the end, Wanyan Zongwang summed up weakly: "The Song Dynasty can't escape, as long as we stabilize the rear and guard the military towns in the north of the Song Dynasty, then the entire Song Dynasty will eventually become our home." ”

Wanyan Wu begged to buy again into deep thought.

His sincere eyes stared at Zong Wang, his eyes mixed with regret and sympathy.

At this time, he wanted to care, and he wanted to continue Zongwang's life.

But the medicine of this era did not meet his expectations.

In the end, Wanyan Wu Qimai asked in a depressed mood: "Then you say, now that my Dajin is still superior in military strength compared with the Song Dynasty, if we destroy the Song Dynasty, we can also turn back and deal with the Mongols." ”

"Your Majesty, the battlefield is not a sand table deduction, the war is ruthless, and the battlefield is changing."

"The advantage we seem to have may have become a disadvantage in the eyes of the Song people."

"Oh? What do you mean by that? ”

Wanyan Zongwang said indifferently, "We went south last year, and we were like a bamboo, and the Song people who fought were really too busy to take care of themselves, and they looked ignorant. ”

"However, our army besieged Bianliang City, the imperial capital of the Song Dynasty, twice before, but failed to conquer them, but strengthened the Song people's determination to resist."

"Especially the previous futile return of the army commanded by Sticky Han made the Song people excited and made the Song people climax."

"The little emperor of the Song Dynasty, who has not been on the throne for two years, is also young and vigorous, and threatens to fight with our army to the end, and to live and die with Bianliang City."

"It is precisely because the Song people have gradually found self-confidence, so even if their military strength is weaker than ours, their fighting spirit is becoming more and more firm."

"Therefore, the overall balance of superiority is shifting towards the Song army at this time, and this time the defeat of the Northwest Army of the Song Dynasty under the command of Commander Wanyanfu is a microcosm that cannot be ignored."
