Chapter 307: Finish Yan Zongyi's crusade

As soon as Wen Boyuan's words fell, whispers sounded in the court.

The ministers exchanged heads and talked about each other. Some people expressed their agreement with Wen Boyuan's concerns, arguing that armaments should be strengthened just in case; There are also people who hold different opinions, believing that the current relationship between the Great Song Dynasty and the Jin State is an alliance and that they should not be too suspicious and defensive against foreign enemies.

Zhao Yingluo quietly listened to the discussions of the ministers, her brows furrowed. She is well aware of the seriousness of this problem, and once it is not handled properly, it is likely to affect the relationship between the Great Song Dynasty and the Jin State, and even cause war. Therefore, she must make careful decisions.

At this time, an old minister stood up and said, "Your Royal Highness Princess, General Wen's concern is not unreasonable. However, we can't conclude from this that Wanyan Zongyi will be unfavorable to the Great Song Dynasty. After all, our two countries are now allies, working together against foreign enemies. I believe that we should strengthen communication and exchanges with Kinawa to enhance mutual understanding and trust. At the same time, we should also strengthen our own armament build-up to cope with possible risks. ”

Another young minister also added, "Your Highness the Princess, I think we can send an envoy to the Kingdom of Jin to express our concerns and expectations to Wanyan Zongyi. At the same time, we can also take this opportunity to find out his true thoughts and intentions. This can not only avoid misunderstandings and conflicts, but also provide a reference for our future decisions. ”

Zuo Prime Minister Lu Yihao expressed his opinion in the court: "Wanyan Zongyi is not an ambitious person, and after he regains the throne, he should not pose a threat to the Great Song Dynasty." We don't need to panic too much, but stay calm and act cautiously. ”

After hearing this, Princess Zhao Yingluo nodded slightly, she pondered for a moment and said, "What Lu Xiang said is not unreasonable, but we still need to take precautions and be fully prepared. The order was sent down, and General Yue Fei, who was stationed in Xingzhou, was ordered to strengthen combat readiness, pay close attention to the movements of the Jin State, and be ready to deal with possible changes at any time. ”

The ministers in the court discussed a lot and agreed with Zhao Yingluo's decision. They are well aware that in these changing times, any negligence can bring disaster to the country.

As the bitter cold of winter gradually recedes, the breath of spring is quietly coming. When the snow melts, the earth begins to come back to life. However, the tranquility of this spring day did not last long. When the news came, Wanyan Zongyi had led his more than 100,000 horses from Shangjing to prepare to defeat Wanyan Zonghan.

This news caused quite a stir in the Great Song Dynasty. Although they had expected and prepared before, Wanyan Zongyi's army still made everyone nervous. Zhao Yingluo immediately convened the ministers to discuss countermeasures.

"Ladies and gentlemen, now that Yan Zongyi has sent troops to fight against Yan Zonghan, how should we deal with it?" Zhao Yingluo asked in a deep voice.

Lu Yihao pondered for a moment and said, "Your Royal Highness, I think we should stay calm at this moment and wait and see what happens. The fight between Wanyan Zongyi and Wanyan Zonghan may be an opportunity for us. We can take this opportunity to strengthen our border defenses while keeping a close eye on the progress of the fighting so that we can respond at any time. ”

Another minister also added: "What Lu Xiang said is extremely true. In addition, we can also strengthen our ties with General Yue Fei to ensure that he is ready for battle at any time. At the same time, we can also consider sending an envoy to the Jin Kingdom to inquire about the truth and reality, so as to better understand the battle situation and Wanyan Zongyi's intentions. ”

After hearing this, Zhao Yingluo nodded in agreement: "What you Aiqing said is reasonable. Orders were sent to strengthen border defenses and keep a close eye on the progress of the war. At the same time, an envoy was sent to the Kingdom of Jin to find out what was going on. We must be fully prepared to ensure the safety of Da Song. ”

Lu Yihao also stood up and said, "What Her Royal Highness the Princess said is extremely true. We should take this opportunity to strengthen exchanges and cooperation with Kinawa and jointly safeguard the friendly relations between the two countries. At the same time, we must also be alert to possible risks and challenges, and be prepared for anything. ”

Zuo Prime Minister Lu Yihao expressed his opinion in the court, and he firmly believed that Wanyan Zongyi was not an ambitious person, and even if he regained the throne, he would not pose a real threat to the Great Song Dynasty. However, although Princess Zhao Yingluo agreed with Lu Yihao's view, she still decided to order Yue Fei, who was stationed in Xingzhou, to strengthen combat readiness and be ready to meet possible challenges at any time for the sake of the country's security.

Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, it is the spring of the second year. As the spring breeze blows, the earth gradually wakes up and the snow begins to melt. At this time, outside the capital city, on a vast plain, Wanyan Zongyi was wearing a brilliant golden armor and stood proudly on the high platform of the expedition. The sun shone on his armor, reflecting a dazzling light, like the god of war descending.

Behind him were more than 100,000 elite soldiers of the Jin Kingdom. They were all in good spirits and their morale was high. The armor shimmered with a cold metallic luster, and the spears were like a forest, overflowing with cold light. The neighing of war horses came and went, and the banners hunted in the wind, like the roar of the god of war.

Wanyan Zongyi took a deep breath and raised his hand to signal the army to be quiet. His voice echoed across the plains like spring thunder: "Soldiers! Today, we will embark on a journey to defeat that shameless usurper, Wanyan Zonghan! He oppressed our people, trampled on our country, and plunged the country into unprecedented chaos. This battle is not only to regain the throne, but also to defend our dignity and honor! ”

He looked around, his eyes like a torch, and continued: "I know that this war will be full of hardships and challenges. But as long as we are united and move forward, nothing can stop us! You are the warriors of the golden country and the backbone of the country! Your courage and determination will be the key to our victory! ”

As Yan Zongyi's words fell, the entire army erupted in a deafening shout: "Defeat Yan Zonghan!" Take back the throne! Long live the Golden Country! The shouts echoed across the plains, shocking.

Wanyan Zongyi pulled out the long sword in his hand and pointed into the distance. In the light of the sun, the long sword shimmered with cold light, as if it could pierce the sky. He commanded loudly: "Go! ”

With this order, the entire army erupted into an astonishing combat power like a lit flame. The sound of iron hooves was deafening, and in the midst of the dust, Wanyan Zongyi led this heroic and fearless army to embark on a journey to defeat Wanyan Zonghan. Their figures faded away on the plains, but the pride and firm belief burned like an unquenchable flame in everyone's hearts.

In Yanjing City, Wanyan Zonghan, the emperor of the Jin Kingdom, sat on the dragon chair with a solemn face. He held a battle report in his hand, on which was written the news that Yan Zongyi led a large army to attack Yanjing.

"Your Majesty, Wanyan Zongyi's army is approaching Yanjing, how should we deal with it?" One of the generals asked eagerly.

Wanyan Zonghan took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "Wanyan Zongyi's attack this time is obviously planned for a long time. We have to react quickly to keep Yanjing safe. ”
