Zhao Gou's handwritten letter outlined some of the current forms of the court and some of the problems faced, the most important is the current offensive of the Jin State against the Great Song Dynasty, this time the Jin State is still divided into two armies, the east and the west, and according to the previous offensive line, once again attack the Great Song Dynasty.

The main peace and main battle factions in the DPRK and China have been arguing endlessly, and the consensus of the Jin army in the first stage is not too fierce, but after Yan Zonghan sent troops from Xijing Datong, he defeated Zhang Hao, the commander of the Yongxing army, Zhang Hao's army of 50,000 was defeated, and Taiyuan was in the state of the beginning of the first siege of the Jin soldiers, but this time the general of Taiyuan was Wang Yu!

Jin Guo East Road Army still has Wan Yan Zongwang led, he set off from Baozhou, the day to break the Song soldiers in Xiongzhou, Zhongshan and other places, 70,000 Song troops fled in the wind, Wan Yan Zongwang approached Xinle, the division led the elite of the Western Army to block, through Zhending Mansion, currently in Jingcheng and Jin Army confrontation, the 30,000 Western Army led by the seed division was given the "Tianwei Army" is Qinzong Qin.

The two roads of Hechuan were in a hurry, and Qin Zong panicked, and urgently recruited Li Gang, the head of the Hebei Road march, to go to Beijing to participate in the governor's affairs, and the position of the head of the Hebei Road march fell to Zhao Gou.

Zhao Gou was also very helpless about this, he wrote to ask Xiao Ming how to deal with it, from this stage, it is the best way to preserve strength, but at the current moment of foreign enemies, it is very inappropriate to preserve his strength for the sake of future political struggles, so Xiao Ming's reply to Zhao Gou is just a few words: "Don't give in, make a decision immediately!" ”

Xiao Ming himself is about to start preparing, he will not be able to sit idly by and watch this war between Song and Jin, but in what name will he help the Great Song Dynasty get rid of this disaster? Xiao Ming pondered hard and couldn't understand the point, he found Ding Jianpeng and discussed with him whether the war that had been postponed could have been avoided in 1127 AD!

Ding Jianpeng pondered for a long time, and could not give a clear answer to Xiao Ming, the two talked for a long time, made an in-depth analysis of the current environment, Ding Jianpeng's historical knowledge is stronger than Xiao Ming, he told Xiao Ming that when the Great Song Dynasty existed, it was the era when we Chinese were most proud! There's a lot of information to be found here.

Of course, Xiao Ming didn't want to read any information, he just wanted to know what to do, but Ding Jianpeng's later words had to attract his attention, Ding Jianpeng said: "The twelfth century is not only China, but also the turning point of the whole world, the Great Song Dynasty is at the right time, facing great challenges, in the constant collision with the northern nomads, gradually at a disadvantage, and finally in less than two hundred years by the Mongol Yuan Dynasty!" ”

"But in fact, challenges are opportunities! Everything is broken and then established is fundamental, the feudal system of the Great Song Dynasty has developed to the peak stage, just like a strong fortress, even if it is not broken from the outside, it will be broken from the inside, this regime and feudal model is ** and rotten, but if you change it through hard work, it is not impossible, but it is too time-consuming! ”

Ding Jianpeng asked Xiao Ming: "Don't you always fantasize about being able to change the system?" Including the Zhao Gou you supported, but if you want to really change the system, how can it be so simple! There are only two paths in the world, one waiting for the awakening of the people, and the other through violent revolution, so which one is the most suitable? ”

Xiao Mingyi waved his hand and said, "Don't say it, I understand what you mean, do you mean to follow the trend?" ”

Ding Jianpeng nodded and said: "That's right, everything that should happen will happen, this is an opportunity, the best opportunity to break all the old, create a new one, and break it and stand up!" So I hope that this time it will be the change and development that we will lead and that we will do everything we can to help you achieve supreme power, and only through a strong iron fist can we change everything! ”

Xiao Ming said: "But I don't want any power!" Power is like a magic ring, it's addictive, it's easy to take it on, but it's very difficult to take it off! So I'd rather get rich than power! ”

Ding Jianpeng said: "I know this, I have been thinking about this issue recently, why is there such a big difference between our country and Western countries? After throwing out a lot of external factors, I found that the main thing is the little thing in the heart of the person! ”

Xiao Ming asked, "What does this mean?" Can you be specific? ”

"What did you say to me last time, yes, we Chinese don't believe in anything, only superstitious rights!" This sentence inspired me a lot! ”

Xiao Ming said: "I said something targeted at that time, compared to the phenomenon of Westerners having religious beliefs, I think the power of faith is very terrifying, but why do we Chinese go to the superstitious secular right in religious belief?" ”

Ding Jianpeng shook his head, "I only know one law, that is, the development direction of everything is the result of changing one path to another when it doesn't work!" Why do Chinese people have such a very secular tendency, I think it has something to do with this! ”

Xiao Ming said: "Do you mean that we can wait and see how things develop, and then take advantage of the situation?" ”

"Yes!"

"But the people of the Central Plains will inevitably be miserable again!" Xiao Ming sighed.

"The regime of the Jin Kingdom is easy to deal with, we need to guide them to smash some of the nomads and smash the old things of the Great Song Dynasty!"

Xiao Ming also felt that what Ding Jianpeng said was reasonable, from a historical point of view, although the Jin Kingdom was fierce in combat, it belonged to a very small nomadic people after all, and the population base was where it was, so they would not have too many soldiers in every battle, and more than half of the men and horses who could get together 100,000 to 150,000 might have been surrendered!

The population of the Jurchens also determined that he could only carry out an extensive management mode in northern China! Therefore, in every foreign war, plundering the population is the inevitable means of the Jin State! From semi-slavery to semi-feudalism, this ideological change in society can only be reflected in the big slave owners and landlords and all the nobles, and ordinary people still go their own way.

But the Jurchens have a tradition of all people being soldiers, and women and children will also become warriors in times of crisis, in fact, Xiao Ming has a lot of experience and methods to deal with the Jurchens, he is really not too worried about the external expansion of the Jin State, and there are ways to defeat them, but he needs to make some plans for the subsequent development.

Xiao Ming and Ding Jianpeng determined some plans for the next step, and the decisions made by these two special people were actually related to the life and death of thousands of people, which they did not expect at first.

After Xiao Ming discussed with Ding Jianpeng, he only went to find An Daoquan once, and then he didn't leave Hangzhou City again! At the same time, a series of instructions were issued from the Hangzhou government, respectively, through the flying kite sent to the Richanglong branch and the branch of Tianping Yinzhuang, the content of the order is actually very simple, that is, to tighten the silver root! There will be no large-scale trading and buying and selling in the near future!

The important thing is to mobilize personnel and transfer some experienced personnel to the south, or to open up other markets, Xiao Ming has listed the two roads in Hebei and the east and west roads as a war zone, and since it is a war zone, it is necessary to adopt the strategy of the war zone.

At the same time, the 10,000 golden army stationed in Xuzhou went out of the city to the east and went to Yingtianfu in Nanjing, the Great Song Dynasty! And defend Ying Tianfu, Zhao Gou can appropriately move his sphere of influence south to Ying Tianfu, and at the same time reorganize more than 20,000 people of the original Xinfeng Army and the Guards in Weihai to go straight to Xuzhou by train, and guard the Huai River crossing to control the entire east east road of the Huai River and the south bank of the Yellow River! This is Xiao Ming's private army's official action, but it is only ready to defend.

The strength of the five regiments of the Tiger Guard Army issued a mobilization order, increased training efforts, and added a training mode against cavalry, no matter who it is, it needs to be trained seriously, Xiao Ming personally went to see everyone's reaction to this training mode, he didn't want his Tiger Guard to be scared to pee his pants when he faced the cavalry of the Jin State.

The portraits of the Jurchen warriors who were destined to ride horses and raise swords on the models made of wooden boards were fixed on the platform, and there were ropes at the bottom to drag them, and the stages were accelerated according to the speed of the cavalry's acceleration, and at least 100 models of this kind were placed horizontally according to the width of the opponent's cavalry's charge.

During training, the tiger guard stood in a row with a gun aimed at the opponent's cavalry, and the model would rumble and rush towards the tiger guard, which was about four or five hundred steps, and the tiger guard was required to shoot again without distraction and concentration, even if the model horse hit himself, he had to complete the action in his hand in accordance with the specifications of the rifle operation.

"Bang bang! Smack! The gunshots are endless, one by one the models were beaten with sawdust flying, but these wooden models did not stop, but rushed faster and faster towards this row of tiger guards, suddenly the psychological quality of this group of people was all exposed, some people couldn't help but retreat, and some of them were pale, as if the empty wooden cards would hit their own general, only a few tiger guards did not change color, and have been executing the bullet, shooting, shelling, and bombing...... This kind of action, and strive to standardize!

Xiao Ming also tried it, at this distance, the intuitive impact is very stimulating to the nerves, under normal circumstances, Hu Wei shoots from a distance of four or five hundred steps from the beginning, until the model is very close to himself, he can shoot five or six bullets in a row without panic, and when he is more than ten or twenty steps away from him, he has already retreated, and the movements in his hands will also be flustered.

Xiao Ming could only shoot continuously to the seventh shot, then took a step back, shook his head and smiled bitterly! The tiger guards laughed on the side, but then they stopped laughing, that was because of the appearance of Guo Shouxin, this person seemed to be born with a big nerves, the model rushed to stop about two steps in front of him, and he also fired eleven shots, the gun hit the model, and did not take a step back from beginning to end!

At such a close distance, Guo Shouxin was still skillful in carrying out the movements in his hands, and he was not affected by the model in front of him at all, Xiao Ming couldn't help but ask him: "Why are you not afraid at all?" ”

Guo Shouxin replied: "What is there to be afraid of, the closer he runs, the more accurate my aim is, the closer he gets to me, the closer he is to the ghost gate, and shooting at close range is not where he wants to hit!" ”

Xiao Ming was dumbfounded, and it made a lot of sense, Xiao Ming gave Guo Shouxin a thumbs up, "Then why don't you go and be an instructor for these guys!" Twice a day, no one is required to shoot at least eight to nine shots! ”

"I'm not going! My duty is to be by your side! Guo Shouxin said expressionlessly.

Xiao Ming couldn't cry and laughed, "Who said that I don't need guards, you go and train them for me, let them all come to me as guards, and you are the head of this group of guards!" Isn't that good? ”

Guo Shouxin nodded and said, "That's good, I'll go!" ”

Not to mention Xiao Ming's fierce troops in Hangzhou, just to say that Jin Guo's attack on the Song Dynasty this time finally entered the second stage because he successfully defeated the elite of the Western Army of the Great Song Dynasty in Jingcheng and killed the generals, and the situation became more and more critical......!
