Chapter 297: It's hard to ride a tiger
"Therefore, as long as the two Huai are not lost, it is still difficult for us to take advantage of the Song Dynasty."
"Even if Zongfu attacked the Shandong military town this time, he never entered the Lianghuai region of the Song Dynasty, and now even Zongfu has suffered a defeat, and our military spirit will not be able to raise it for a while."
"No, those you said are the resources of the Song Dynasty, they have two Huai, but after three years of war, even the rich two Huai will inevitably be eroded and have no sense of existence."
"All in all, I am absolutely sure that the current Song Dynasty has lost the strength to resist our Jin Kingdom, no, I want to go to the City of the Five Kingdoms, I want to meet Your Majesty."
Wan Yan Gao struggled to sit up from the hospital bed.
He looked at Zong Wang angrily, feeling that Zong Wang came over this time to dispel his idea of destroying the Song Dynasty on the order of Wanyan Wu Qimai.
Sticky Han, who was standing next to him, hurriedly stepped forward to support the big man behind the scenes.
"Lord Xiangguo, your body is no longer guaranteed to go out of the door so far, Your Majesty asks you to take care of your body."
"Zongwang!"
Wan Yan Gao, who burst out with strength, struggled with his last strength to send out his inner ambition: "Now is the perfect time to truly destroy the Song Dynasty, it wasn't before, but now!" ”
"If you miss this opportunity, the entire Jin Kingdom will regret it in the future."
Zong Wang's face was like this, and he continued to say calmly: "Lord Xiangguo, the situation has changed. ”
"We're in a different situation now."
"What's the difference?"
"Just when the Southern Crown commanded the Five Route Army to carry out military operations against the Song Dynasty, the Mongols entrenched in our north were also except for a Great Khan!"
"They want to regain the land of the former Liao State, they want to cut off our war horses, and let us become an infantry corps roaming the north."
As soon as he heard Zong Wang say this, Wan Yangao's face was suddenly stunned, and the whole person didn't know what to say.
At the same time, Muhan, who was standing beside him, also fell silent.
The Khitans and the Mongols can be said to be in the same line.
At that time, the Yelu family of the Khitan tribe established the Liao State, and the Mongols were suppressed in the northwest of the steppe.
However, with the fall of the Great Liao, the Mongols also began to covet the vast territory of the former Great Liao.
And the Jin State has always been very jealous of the Mongols from the beginning to the present.
Now the situation of the war between the Song Dynasty and the Jin State has fallen to the point where they are both exhausted.
If only at this time, the military power of the Jin State could still cover the grassland.
Then they have a steady stream of natural horse farms.
Naturally, there would be no big man in the city of the Five Kingdoms to stop Wan Yan Gao from continuing to go south.
But now, the Mongols want to cut off the war horses of the Jin Kingdom.
Without war horses, how can Jin talk about preparing cavalry?
Without cavalry, they lost the advantage of war.
Coupled with the aggregation of various intelligence, it is pointed out that the Great Song Dynasty is recruiting troops.
700,000!
Even if the number of 700,000 is very watery.
But with another 300,000 troops, then you can fight another war with Jin like this year.
This point, the sticky Han in the account also thought of it.
I have to say that what Wanyan Zongwang said does have some truth.
Now the Song Dynasty is already struggling, but why is it difficult for the Jin Kingdom to ride a tiger?
In a dilemma.
Zong Wang pondered for a moment, then continued: "Lord Xiangguo, in the past, our Liao country's sworn enemy Yelu Dashi was hiding in the Mongolian steppe, if at this juncture, he instigated Mongolia to directly attack the north of our Jin country, then how should we deal with it?" ”
Wan Yan Gao was suddenly at a loss.
Sticky Han also lowered his head depressedly.
Zong Wang continued: "The sentinel of Bianliang City has already delivered me a clear military report, the army of Zongfu stationed in the Shandong military town of the Song Dynasty was defeated by a young general of the Song Dynasty, that person is called Yue Fei, he is Zong Ze's general, and the Yue family army under his command is also a hard bone that can fight. ”
"And before Zongfu's army retreated and was about to return to the ancient military town, he was blocked by Han Shizhong, who was Li Gang's general."
"Now the Zongfu army also exists in name only."
Hearing this, Mu Han snorted coldly a little unconvinced: "What's the big deal about that? The generals of the Song Dynasty won against our Jin army, and nine times out of ten it was due to luck. ”
"No, Sticky Han, you are wrong, I thought so at the beginning, but our sentinel has already found out Yue Fei, it was just a small court lieutenant, and he was suddenly reused by the Song Dynasty emperor in Bianliang City, we all underestimated him and ignored him, just as we ignored a small court lieutenant, but he was entrusted with a heavy task by the emperor of the Song Dynasty!"
"You mean the one that the Dog Emperor reused?"
"It's true, even that Han Shizhong was promoted by the emperor of the Song Dynasty, and he, like Yue Fei, is very young."
"According to their age, they should still be herding cattle at home at this time."
"But Sosuke was surrounded and annihilated by the two, and only a few thousand people were left to flee back to the north."
"It can be seen that Yue Fei and Han Shizhong are not weaker than the four highnesses of our dynasty."
"Zong Wang, it's just a losing battle, you can't grow the morale of others and destroy your own prestige, right?"
"Besides, you don't say how many troops the two young generals lead? If you want to annihilate Zongfu's army, you have to have at least 100,000 troops, and the Song Dynasty's 100,000 army was dispatched, and Zongfu didn't react? This shows that the defeat was caused by the inattentive sentinels under Sosuke's command. ”
"No, sticky, you're wrong again."
Zong Fu said: "The Song army did not dispatch an army of 100,000 at all, and that Yue Fei only used 5,000 elite cavalry to raid the 120,000 army of Zong Fu and Liu Chengru. ”
"Five thousand?"
This time Mu Han was a little surprised.
"Exactly."
"Okay, I can't imagine that there are such brave people in the Song Dynasty!"
Zong Wang was not interested in listening to Sticky Han's sigh, but changed his words and said: "Lord Xiangguo, stop it, if we continue to fight again, we don't know how many times we will be caught off guard." ”
"The immediate thing is to gather the army as soon as possible, and take the opportunity to deter the restless Mongols."
"At the same time, we sent a larger number of sentinels to the territory of the Song Dynasty, as the saying goes, we know that we know each other and win all battles, as long as we know the Song Dynasty thoroughly enough, we can choose the day to destroy the Song Dynasty more efficiently."
Zong Wang's tone of voice was extremely calm.
But Wan Yan Gao was not reconciled at all.
He knew Wan Yan Zongwang's thoughts.
This time, Zong Wang came to him, in fact, to send a message to the emperor.
Just when Wan Yan Gao was a little at a loss, a report from the herald came from outside the door.
Then Sticky Han took the information from the herald and walked in.
The source of the intelligence is the Taiyuan military town that Sticky Han settled in before!
And after Sticky Han read the content of this battle report, his whole face completely fell into ashes.
Then Mu Han handed over the information to Wan Yan Gao.
