Yue Fei knew that he was speechless, although he said that he was loyal and courageous, he had always spoken fiercely, and he did not avoid going up and down, and he did not defend himself.

The rest of the generals in the army, such as Liu Hao, also knelt down and asked Zhao Gou to spare Yue Fei's life, but Wang Boyan said: "No, if he is spared so lightly, everyone in the army will follow suit, how can the generalissimo govern the army, and how can he talk about commanding the world's soldiers and horses?"

Huang Qianshan said: "The generalissimo asks the generalissimo to give an order to cure Yue Fei's crime of disrespect, correct military discipline, and clear law orders, so as to establish authority, and the upper and lower levels of the army know that the military order cannot be violated, and the respect and humility cannot be abolished." Only in this way can the generalissimo obey the orders when he commands the three armies. ”

Zong Ze hurriedly said: "Generalissimo, don't do it, killing Yue Fei alone is small, and losing the heart of the army is big." If Yue Fei is killed, suspicion will surely rise in the army, and then the army's heart will fall apart, how can they retreat from the Tartars, and how can they ensure the safety of the emperor? ”

The rest of the generals also said in unison: "Please think twice, Generalissimo!"

Zhao thought about it again and again, his eyes finally eased, and he waved his hand and said: "That's it, right now is the time when the Great Song Dynasty is in danger, and it is the time to employ people, so I will not cure Yue Fei's crime today, and I will wear it again and make meritorious service in the future." ”

Shangguan Yun, Zong Ze, Liu Hao and others all breathed a sigh of relief, Wang and Huang were resentful, and Huang Qianshan shouted: "Yue Fei, haven't you thanked the generalissimo for his grace?"

Yue Fei had no choice but to kowtow and say, "Yue Fei thanks Generalissimo for not killing." ”

Zhao Gou raised his hand and motioned for everyone to get up, and said: "Today is the time when the Great Song Dynasty can use you, this king is here to brainstorm, and I hope you will come up with suggestions and come up with this way to retreat from the enemy." ”

Zong Ze knew that Zhao Gou would definitely not be allowed to cross the river to the south, so he didn't dare to mention it again, and the rest of the people all turned their heads and whispered, but no one stepped forward to offer advice.

Seeing that no one spoke, Zhao Gou asked again, "Which adult has a strategy to retreat from the enemy?"

Everyone whispered but no one answered, Yue Fei still did not give up, and said: "Generalissimo, sending troops to cross the river is the right way, as long as the danger of Bianliang is solved, our army will hold the Yellow River again, and the Tatars will travel for a long time, and the grain and grass will be insufficient in the cold winter, and then they will retreat north." ”

Wang Boyan said: "The army of the golden people, tigers and wolves, must not confront it head-on, lest the golden people use it as an excuse to refuse to stop the army, and the hope of negotiating peace in the future will be extended." ”

Huang Qianshan said: "Crossing the river after the hair is not perfect, it must not be adopted, since the Jin people dare to go deep into the Song Realm, they must be prepared, and they will not easily let my army block the back road." If the army is defeated at the hands of the Jinren, no one can afford to bear the blame. ”

Yue Fei argued: "Xiangzhou is only 300 miles away from Bianliang, and only 10,000 elite soldiers need to gallop day and night, smashing the Tartar camp outside Bianliang City with lightning speed. My big Song boy, who does not hate the Tartars is cruel and cunning, the army wants to eat its flesh and sleep its skin, since the ancient road the two armies fight bravely wins, although the number of Tartars is numerous, but not to occupy the time and place, plus the army's heart is unstable, if the two armies are facing each other, our army will definitely be able to win. ”

Zong Ze also stubbornly said: "Yue Fei's words are very reasonable, please adopt Yue Fei's words and send troops to cross the river to solve the danger of Bianliang." Yue Fei and more than a dozen generals knelt down in unison and said in unison: "Please send troops to the generalissimo." ”

Zhao Gou was still unmoved, shook his head and said: "Zong Ze, Yue Fei, you don't mention this proposal again, it's too risky to send troops to cross the river, if there is no perfect strategy, this king will definitely not send troops." ”

Zong Ze, Yue Fei and other generals in the army looked at each other, but Zhao Gou had already made up his mind, so he had to stop mentioning it.

Zhao Gou said: "You are also familiar with the art of war on weekdays, can't you think of a perfect strategy?"

Everyone was ashamed, but seeing that Zhao Gojian did not send troops to cross the river, even Yue Fei had nothing to say.

Jin Wancheng cleared his throat, and he said loudly: "His Royal Highness King Kang, the grass people have a plan, but they don't know if it's feasible. ”

Zhao Gouqi said: "What is the plan of the head of Jin, please tell me carefully." ”

Jin Wancheng said: "Although the Tartars have more than 100,000 horses and horses in Bianliang, they are alone, and most of the reinforcements are in Hebei Damingfu, and their grain and grass are also transported from Yanyun by water. In the past, the ancients besieged Wei to rescue Zhao, but today our army can't send troops to attack the Daimyo's Mansion directly? The Jin army in the Daimyo's Mansion is no more than 20,000 or 30,000, and many of them have to bear the responsibility of transporting grain and grass, and the number of men and horses defending the city must be less than 20,000. As long as the generalissimo sent troops to take the Daimyo's mansion, copied the back road of the Tartars, cut off their way to transport grain, and then sent troops to block it south of the Yellow River, Wanyan Zongwang would definitely panic, as long as they sent troops to help, the danger of Bianliang would be naturally solved. ”

Zhao Gou was overjoyed when he heard this, and said with a smile: "Sai Zhuge is really worthy of his name, and this siege of Wei to save Zhao is indeed a good strategy." ”

Huang Qianshan nodded and praised: "If you attack the Daimyo's Mansion, you don't have to confront the main force of the Jin Army head-on, and you can be undefeated." Second, to copy the back road, Wanyan Zongwang must be panicked, and the danger of Bianliang can also be solved, which is far better than the strategy of sending troops to cross the river to the south.

Zong Ze disagreed, and said: "Although this plan is feasible, the Tatars don't know that the Daimyo's Mansion is the top priority, and with tens of thousands of horses moving eastward, it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no leakage, and the Tatars must take strict precautions." If he can't capture the Daimyo's Mansion in the future, Wanyan Zongwang on the side of Bianliang will inevitably attack the city in a big way, and the emperor will be even more dangerous. ”

Jin Wancheng said with a smile: "What's so difficult about this, another 10,000 troops were sent to pretend to cross the river, and they wanted to attack Bianliang, but the Tartars did not expect that the main force of my Great Song Dynasty would go straight to the Daimyo's mansion." At that time, not only will the danger of Bianliang be solved, but maybe the Tartars will not return, so that they will all be buried in the territory of my Great Song Dynasty. ”

Huang Qianshan was overjoyed and said: "Generalissimo, this plan is very good, it must be feasible." When the Jin people saw our army going south, maybe they would send troops from the Daimyo's Mansion to help, and then it would become an empty city, so why not cut off the retreat of the Jin people. ”

Wang Boyan clapped his hands and smiled: "Master Jin's plan is really a strategy of killing two birds with one stone, which can not only solve the danger of Bianliang, but also cut off the retreat of the Jin army. The Song and Jin countries do not need to make a big move, and our Great Song Dynasty lives up to the name of benevolence, that is, in the future, the Jin people will also be weak-minded, and they will not dare to seek too much. Generalissimo, attacking the Daimyo's Mansion is a foolproof strategy, so it is better to send troops immediately. ”

Shangguan Yun shook his head and said, "Although I don't know how to march and fight, I don't think this plan is a good strategy. The Jin people had already sent people to plot to break Bianliang, so when Guo Jing did it, he didn't let people see it, and he wanted to open the city gate, but he was afraid that before the Daimyo's Mansion was taken, Bianliang would have broken the city. At that time, the emperor and the ministers of the court and the central government are all in the hands of the Jin people, the Great Song Dynasty has no owner, the world will be in chaos, and the state capitals will also go their own way. They only need to give up the Daimyo Mansion for the time being, but they can exchange it for the entire world of the Great Song Dynasty, why not?"
