Wan Yan Gao has woken up from a coma.

Only this time the coma lasted four days.

When Zong Wang saw Yan Gao, it was as if he had seen another person.

After Yan Gao was haggard, only skin and bones remained.

But his eyes remained as sharp as before.

And the sharp edge in his eyes seemed to be even more daring to look at him than when he was majestic before.

"Zongwang, did Your Majesty ask you to come?"

"It's Your Majesty, and it's my will." Zong Wang stepped forward to greet him very politely and continued, "Lord Xiangguo, how are you feeling now?" ”

"Much better, thank you for me, Your Majesty."

"Lord Xiangguo, Your Majesty is very concerned about you, and now Your Majesty knows the situation of the Five Route Army, but Your Majesty is more concerned about Lord Xiangguo."

As soon as he heard this, Sangkook immediately came to the spirit.

His greatest concern was His Majesty's opposition to the continuation of the army.

That's not going to be easy.

"Zongwang, my life is short, I have a sentence I want to tell you."

"Xiangguo, please give me instructions."

"Although our Jin State Fifth Route Army has suffered heavy casualties this time, the situation of the Song Army is not much better, and now we are holding each other's last breath, it depends on who admits defeat first."

"For now, we should abandon our prejudices and mobilize a large army to move south quickly to deal a fatal blow to the Song Dynasty, which is still breathing."

When Zong Wang heard this, he couldn't help but sigh.

He never thought that Wan Yan Gao would still think about the southern expedition to annihilate the Song Dynasty at the moment when his life was dying.

In fact, Zong Wang himself is also very clear in his heart.

Now at this juncture, the army of the Song Dynasty has really reached the point of lingering.

It only needs to send a Jin army to the south, even if Zhao Shuo cannot be captured, it can destroy the military town of the Song Dynasty to the greatest extent.

In this way, it is logical to drive the military and political forces of the Song Dynasty from the Central Plains to the other side of the Yangtze River.

However, there are no generals in the world who will win all battles.

There is no strategy for victory.

Although the probability of success of this idea is high, it is not 100%.

That is, there is a probability of failure.

This is the same as when the Fifth Route Army marched south, when the whole Jin State felt that this time it would be able to destroy the Great Song Dynasty.

But what about the facts?

What's going on?

The reality was that the Five Route Army had all failed.

Wanyan Zongwang is currently most worried about this happening.

If the Jin State did everything possible to attack the Song Dynasty and failed again, then the Jin State would have completely lost its dominance in the north.

The next step is to be baptized by the fast-rising Mongol tribes.

This is not Zongwang's political ideal.

Because Wanyan Zongwang wanted to preserve the current strength of the Jin Kingdom in many cases.

At least what he thought of destroying the Song Dynasty had to be after the Jin State pacified the Mongols on the steppe and obtained the Mongolian horse farm.

"Lord Xiangguo, I'm afraid that this matter will not go smoothly."

"What? Are you still on guard? To tell the truth, you and I are both seriously ill people, and now we should put aside our political prejudices and unanimously destroy the Song Dynasty. ”

"No, I support Sangkoku-sama's idea."

"It's just that Lord Xiangguo doesn't know."

"We have received close news from our fine work in Bianliang City, and the old emperor of the Song Dynasty has been grounded."

"They are currently planning to recruit 700,000 troops, not only to add 200,000 troops to the Northwest Army, but also to consolidate the defense line of the northern military town with 500,000 troops."

"That's not exact news, is it? It's absolutely impossible! ”

"From the beginning of the winter of the previous year to the present, the overall loss of the Song Dynasty is at least twice as high as ours, and Song Huizong also compensated Yan Zongfu with a huge amount of silver some time ago, and now he wants to recruit 700,000 troops? How is that possible? You and I are both commanders of the army, and we should both know what it means to have an army of 700,000. That is to drain a rich country with clean strength, it is a war monster, how can it be possible to prepare 700,000 after the Song Dynasty lost a million troops? ”

The more Wan Yan Gao spoke, the more excited he became, until his emotions were completely out of control, he shook his hands and roared: "Zongwang, the Song Dynasty is different from us, the Song Dynasty has always used the system of recruiting troops, and if they want to increase their troops, they have to spend money!" ”

"They lost one person in battle, and the burden on the court is heavier than ours."

"And our Jin Kingdom killed a warrior, and the bereavement given by the court was much less than that given by the Song Dynasty Dog Emperor."

"In the final analysis, the Song Dynasty estimates that it can't even make up for the soldiers killed this time, how can it raise 700,000 soldiers?"

"Even if they take 10,000 steps back, they really have 700,000 soldiers, but if they want to form combat effectiveness, how young are they?"

"As long as my Dajin's cavalry takes advantage of the situation to go south, the 700,000 recruits are just 700,000 steamed buns, and they can't make much waves at all."

"Lord Xiangguo, you have said a lot, but my secret agents in the hinterland of the Song Dynasty have also obtained a lot of accurate information."

"The Song army is transporting grain to various major war zones, and even the silver carts escorted by Wu Desi's escort are constantly being transported to the northwest and Hebei."

Wan Yan Gao heard the meaning of Zong Wang's words, this guy was unwilling to support him in sending troops south to destroy the Song Dynasty no matter what.

So he sighed and said earnestly: "Zongwang, in my heart, you have always been a minister of humerus who governs the country, and you supervise the grain, grass and military salary, then you should know the huge loss of the Song Dynasty in three years, coupled with the fact that there are many corrupt officials in them, the current Song Dynasty is a hundred-legged corpse." ”

"They have been struggling to survive, but if we don't destroy the Song Dynasty now, but wait for the new emperor of the Song Dynasty with great talent to stabilize his position, then we will completely lose the opportunity to destroy the Song Dynasty in the future, and as time goes by, there will definitely be a situation between my Dajin and the Song Dynasty."

"I'm afraid that when the time comes, we should switch from offense to defense."

Wan Yan Gao's emotions were obviously more excited than before, he grabbed Zong Wang's hand and said categorically: "As for the information that your sentinels have unearthed in the hinterland of the Song Dynasty, I believe that they investigated it with their hearts and saw it with their own eyes. But that was all a ploy by the emperor of the Song Dynasty, and he wanted to confuse us, so that we would have a wrong judgment of the Song Dynasty, so as to delay our next military action. ”

"I hope you'll think about that."

"Lord Xiangguo, although this matter may have been directed and performed by the dog emperor of the Song Dynasty to confuse our attention, but this just shows that the Song Dynasty currently has a very strong sense of main battle from the court to the people of Li."

"And we attacked the Song Dynasty for three years, and in essence, we did not have a single time to cause substantial destruction to the Song Dynasty Lianghuai region, which was the grain center of the Song Dynasty and was known as the granary of the Great Song Dynasty."
