Zong Xin nodded, these three aunts and grandmothers are Song Yan's two wives and a daughter, Princess Yongning, Demon Concubine Yaochi, and Song Qianqian, all three of them are aunts and grandmothers, with a big temper and a rough and willful attitude. Song Yan just likes this, Princess Yongning is already rude enough, he even married a second room like Yaochi......

Zong Xin also has a deep understanding of this, the demon is just an adopted daughter, so it is naturally impossible to get much favor from Song Yan, even so, the demon is rude and willful enough in front of him, and then think about Song Qianqian, her biological daughter, she is already good if she doesn't make trouble.

And this time, Zongxin has to pay special attention. He Meiyu and Song Qianqian have a grudge, when the two of them first met, there was a spark, ordinary people can't see it, but Zong Xin can clearly feel the smell of gunpowder between them, if it weren't for the presence of so many adults, they might have already fought.

Zong Xin said: "I brought a good soldier named Han Lingkun, he is the heir of the Fa family, and he will govern military discipline for the time being." As for the other men and horses, they are coming, but there are not many of them, only 3,000 iron cavalry, but I can guarantee that as long as these 3,000 iron cavalry can gallop in the plains, they are not Khitan cavalry or their opponents. We don't need iron cavalry to defend the city, so we have to give iron cavalry a chance to charge, and only one charge is enough. ”

"Why did you bring cavalry to defend the city? Archers and shortsword soldiers are the key to defending the city. Song Yan complained, Zongxin shouldn't make this kind of mistake.

Zong Xin said depressedly: "After the cavalry gets off the horse, picking up the bow and arrow is the archer, picking up the shield is the short knife hand, and when it is really not good, you can still kill the horse and eat, what's wrong? The Ao Gang is my only direct subordinate army, and the soldiers brought out by my Zongxin are all all-round development, and they can do anything." ”

"Okay, you have a point. Song Yan said: "Next, I will tell you about the strength of the Northern Han Dynasty, and see if you have any way to break the Northern Han and Khitan coalition forces." The strength of the Northern Han Dynasty is not much, only about 40,000 people, but at this time it is very close to the Northern Han Dynasty, the Northern Han Dynasty is sparsely populated, there is not too much open and secret fighting, the power of the whole country is all in the hands of Liu Chong alone, Taiyuan is only about 100 miles away from Weizhou, Liu Chong can continue to send troops to come, but he needs men and horses to stick to the Northern Han, so as not to be captured by the Khitan, so he does not dare to do his best to attack Weizhou, and now 40,000 troops is the limit. And the Khitan only sent 10,000 troops, led by Xiao Gude. Xiao Gu is ruthless, and the Khitans are just like that in terms of tactics, but the Khitan soldiers are brave and good at fighting, and 10,000 troops are also very terrifying combat effectiveness. ”

Zong Xin nodded and said: "Then the combined army of the Northern Han and the Khitan has about 50,000 people, which is more than I imagined, I originally thought that the Khitan would only send 5,000 people, but I didn't expect Yelu Jing's grandson to send 10,000 people." Fortunately, I supported him to ascend the throne and become emperor, if Yelu Ruan was made emperor, otherwise this hurdle might not be passable. ”

"If it was Yelu Ruan, what would he do?" Song Yan asked curiously, he also wanted to know why Zong Xin would support Yelu Jing to ascend the throne, and what strange tricks Yelu Ruan would make.

Zong Xin said: "If it is Yelu Ruan, he will pretend to borrow troops, and then send troops to attack the Northern Han." Now the barrier between the Khitan and the Central Plains is Cangzhou and the Northern Han Dynasty, Cangzhou has not been able to attack for a long time, and the Northern Han road is difficult to travel, so the Khitan can not advance in the sixteen states of Youyun. But if when Liu Chong and his father-in-law fought, the Khitan suddenly sent troops to attack the Northern Han, and the Northern Han did not have time to react to take it in one fell swoop, and the Khitan would be able to attack the Central Plains at any time in the future. ”

Song Yan said: "Are you sure that Yelu Jing will not attack the Northern Han?"

"He won't, he doesn't have the strength and he doesn't have such a bold idea. Zong Xin said with a smile: "I have already made other arrangements before supporting Yelu Jing to ascend the throne, and now most of the power of the Khitan is in the hands of Empress Dowager Xiao, Yelu Jing does not have many troops in his hands, and this person is incompetent and violent, I am afraid that now Ye Lu Jing is happy that the Central Plains is fighting, so he will not care about other things." Empress Dowager Xiao and Yeluzhen are now too busy to take care of other things, the Khitan has just been integrated, and there are too many things for them to deal with, but they are not emperors after all, and it is very inconvenient to do things, and the mediocre Yelujing can't help, so they don't have the extra heart to think about attacking the Northern Han. The Khitan reinforcements of 10,000 are the limits that Yelujing can give, so we don't have to think about other things, just deal with them well. ”

"That being said, but there are still 50,000 enemy troops, ready to attack Weizhou at any time, and it is already very difficult for us to defend the city, and it is impossible to take the initiative to attack. "Guo Wei is also a veteran of the battlefield, and it is difficult to defend the city like this, let alone take the initiative to attack. But he doesn't look like such an honest person when he sees Zong Xin, Zong Xin will choose to find an opportunity to take the initiative to attack, this crazy monk can do anything.

Zong Xin said: "Of course it is impossible to take the initiative to attack, I am a madman and not a fool." But ......"

"I'm afraid you will say, 'But'. Guo Wei knew that Zongxin was dishonest, but he didn't expect him to be so dishonest.

Zong Xin said: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, I mean defend and counterattack, by the way, it's okay to pit them a few times." The weather here is good, although it is a little colder, but there is no rain or snow, the outside of the city is full of wild grass and dead trees, and the view is very good, and the cavalry can charge here without care. ”

Guo Wei knew that Zongxin's cavalry was his hole card, and the other party did not have weapons and troops to deal with the cavalry when attacking the city, after all, the defenders of the city would not use cavalry, so neither the besieging side nor the defender would use cavalry, which was the only advantage. If Zongxin's 3,000 iron horsemen can gallop in this open space in front of Weizhou, no one can stop them, and it will definitely bring a major victory at that time.

But...... The movement of the three thousand iron cavalry was too big, how could Liu Chong not find out? The three thousand iron cavalry charged, the movement was extremely huge, Liu Chong could hear the sound from a few miles away, and then immediately ordered the withdrawal of the troops, and then the trump card of Zong Xin would be useless.

Guo Wei knew Zongxin, and he would never make such a low-level mistake. But he couldn't imagine how he could make the three thousand iron horsemen hide their figures, and suddenly the divine soldiers descended from the sky at a critical moment and launched a deadly charge.

"It's not easy, Liu Chong is not a fool. Song Yan said: "But it's good that you can come, as long as your master Zongxin is present, I believe that the morale of the soldiers must be high, and it will be of great help to defend the city." ”

Zong Xin said: "Okay, let's discuss here for the time being, anyway, there is no substantive point in talking on paper." Let's talk about the relationship of interests. Although both of them are my father-in-law, but my brother is settling accounts, Song Valve can't help protect Weizhou for no reason, this father-in-law You must give some substantial subsidies, otherwise Song Valve will not go all out in this battle. ”

Guo Wei nodded and said, "Then what does Brother Song want?"

Song Yan finally waited for the time to negotiate the price, which he had already expected, but it was not appropriate to have more or less at this time.

"Song doesn't have much interest in gold, silver and jewelry, and half of the rivers and mountains are too valuable, Zongxin, what should I want?" Song Yan first said the lowest and the highest, and said that these two things were not suitable, and then asked Zong Xin, Zong Xin must have thought about what to give a long time ago, so he made this plan.

Zong Xin said: "Money is not a problem, so it is useless to give money." The fiefdom of the king is the most substantial thing. Seal a hereditary throne as a reward for protecting Weizhou. As for the fiefdom, from Kaifeng to Taiyuan of the Northern Han Dynasty, all the territory in the northwest was managed by the Song Valve, so that the Song Valve had enough strength to resist the invasion of the Northern Han Dynasty. In fact, the distance between Kaifeng and Taiyuan is not far, this land is not big, and at the moment of the Son of Heaven, Song Valve will not make any strange moves. Last but not least, the Song valve has been sending troops to the sixteen states of Youyun for many years, and as long as the territory occupied by the Song valve north of Cangzhou is under the jurisdiction of the Song valve, the Song valve will take over the jurisdiction, and for the sake of interests, the Song valve will also do its best to help Fu Yanqing protect the north of Cangzhou. ”

Song Yan and Guo Wei nodded at the same time, this is the best. As long as Song Yan has a fief, he can collect taxes, although most of them have to go to the treasury, but Song Yan can be regarded as having a place to settle down. The main job is to resist the invasion of Liu Chong of the Northern Han Dynasty, as long as this matter is done well, you can go to the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun to fight the Khitan, in fact, how much money has been made, but it is much better than the previous Song Valve, and it will not rely on Zhao Valve's money to save his life.

For Guo Wei, it's okay, Song Yan is his own family, the two have the same uncle, Song Yan won't go too far. Anyway, this land is under the jurisdiction of countless festival envoys, and when it comes to the moment of crisis, these people are like shrunken turtles, and they don't dare to send troops to reinforce at all. Let Song Yan, his own person, rule, and all the Jiedu envoys must accept his direct orders, then they will not dare not send troops. As long as Song Yan does a good job, there is nothing wrong with letting him manage this land.

Of course, Guo Wei was still a little worried about Song Yan's loyalty, what if Song Yan was rebellious? If Song Yan rebelled, he could directly attack Kaifeng. But after thinking about it carefully, Zong Xin asked Song Yan to send troops to the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun, as long as the Northern Han did not attack, Song Yan would not have enough troops to confront him, and this place was not rich in the first place, and it was impossible for Song Yan to accumulate enough strength to fight against the imperial court.

Guo Wei nodded and said, "That...... So be it. ”

"I agree. But the ugly words ahead, I can't guarantee that I will be able to hold this time. Song Yan said: "Anyway, I don't have much confidence, although I believe in you very much, but after all, there is a huge disparity in strength, and at this time, it is estimated that those shrunken turtles will not be able to send troops again, unless we will win, they will come to add icing on the cake, and in case of crisis, they will not send charcoal in the snow."
