The righteous monk is gone.

Xin Qiji's white clothes fluttered, his eyes stared into the distance, and after a long time, he turned around and said, "Let's go." ”

Everyone came to a courtyard, and Xin Qi ordered Xue Dabao to clean up the dishes, and prepared a table of banquets to entertain Yue Wudi and Mo Youming.

During the banquet, Yue Wudi and Xin Qiji talked about the current situation, and they got along very well. Xin Qijian has been famous for a long time, and it is even more famous in history in later generations, naturally it has its own hills and valleys in the chest, and between words, it is all a strategy for the rise and fall of the country, and a strategy for strengthening the country.

And Yue Wudi, if you talk about your own talent and accumulation, it is naturally far inferior to Xin Qiji, but he has the memory of his previous life, and he is very clear about the historical trend of the Southern Song Dynasty and the overall situation of the Condor world. As if standing from God's point of view, every sentence can accurately say the key point, which makes Xin Qiji's case amazing.

used to value Yue Wudi, just because Yue Wudi was a descendant of Yue Fei, and he had an extraordinary bearing and superb martial arts, but now, Xin Qiji was impressed by Yue Wudi's intelligence and insight.

"At a young age, Mr. Yue has such insight, and his views on the general trend of the current situation are very different from ordinary people. ”

Xin Qiji poured a glass of wine into his mouth, drank it in one gulp, and said:

"You say, if there is no accident, no one will win between the Great Song and the Jin Kingdom, and the Mongols in the desert steppe will rise rapidly and sweep through all countries?"

"At first glance, it sounds unbelievable. But when you think about it, you feel that what you said is not unreasonable. ”

"Let's not talk about the Great Song Dynasty, it has been weak for a long time, and it is even more difficult to return to it now. As for the Jin Kingdom, it seems to be very powerful on the surface, but in fact, it has passed through decades of arrogance and lasciviousness in the Central Plains Flower World. The nobles of the Jin Kingdom have long since lost their bravery in the white mountains and black waters. ”

"Whether it is the Great Song Dynasty or the Jin Kingdom, it is not like there is a climate of dominating the world and prospering in the world, and the old man can also understand this. But you said that now they still live by water and grass, and there are Mongolians of all sizes like scattered sand. It is incredible, but is there any basis for the rise of the Han and Tang Dynasties, and the establishment of an unprecedentedly powerful country?"

Yue Wudi smiled and said: "It's good for Lord Xin to call me Wudi, what to call Gongzi Yue will make the younger generation ashamed." ”

He also said: "Whether the Mongols will rise in the future or not, it is a matter of the future, how can the younger generation have a basis?"

"But since ancient times. The people who can pose a threat to the Han people in our Central Plains have always been the northern peoples, either in the white mountains and black waters, or in the boundless grasslands. ”

"According to past experience, whether it is the Xiongnu or the Turks, or the Khitan or the Jurchen, they are all developed by weak and small peoples who live in pursuit of water and grass, and we are inadvertently. In a short period of time, it has grown rapidly like a snowball. This poses a threat to our Han people. ”

"Although the Mongolian people are weak now, they are the most potential ethnic group in the vast steppe. Don't look at the weakness now, in time, it will definitely become a force that Song and Jin will not dare to fight. After all, the reproduction of the grassland peoples is too easy, as long as there are more cattle, sheep and horses. The population will increase, and as the population will increase, there will be enough men to control the strings, and they will all be soldiers, and they will grow up on horseback. The art of mounted archery is unparalleled in the world, it is a natural war nation, and in this era, it is invincible. ”

Xin Qiji's face gradually sank, and said: "The Great Song Dynasty is weak, if the Mongolian clan is really as you said, it will rise, then it must be a disaster for us." ”

Yue Wudi sighed in his heart, if the people in power in the Song Dynasty could have such insight as Xin Qiji, why would they help Mongolia destroy Jin in the future?

"It's a pity that Mongolia is in the desert, and our Great Song Dynasty whip can't reach it, otherwise, while Mongolia is not yet strong, raise troops to weaken it, and we can prevent trouble. ”

Although Xin Qiji had a great reputation among the scholars, he was different from ordinary pedantic Confucian scholars, and he did not mind using iron-blooded methods against foreign clans that threatened the Great Song Dynasty.

Yue Wudi also sighed and said, "It's not just that the Great Song Dynasty can't do anything. It is the Jin State, although it has a certain deterrent effect on the desert and has a large number of troops, but it is impossible to say that the threat of Mongolia is completely solved. ”

"Oh?" Xin Qijian was a little surprised when he heard this, and he asked, "Could it be that there are already people in the Jin Kingdom who recognize the threat of the Mongols?"

"Not really. Yue Wudi said: "It's just that Mongolia continues to develop like this, and there will always be people in the Jin Kingdom who will find out in the future." ”

"But what if you find out, although the Mongolian people are scattered, the big and small tribes have their own affairs. But once there is a large-scale invasion of foreign armies, those tribes that were originally hostile to each other are likely to unite, and this united force may not be enough to attack the city and destroy the country, but it is more than enough to resist foreign enemies in the grassland. ”

"I think that in the future, when the Jin State discovers the threat of the Mongols, it will inevitably follow the strategy of the Sui Dynasty against the Turks. It is mainly to divide and disintegrate the Mongols, and it is impossible to directly send troops. ”

"It's a pity that they won't understand that although this can avoid war in the short term, after a long time, when the Mongol power grows bigger and bigger, and even after unification, the day of the destruction of the Jin State is not far away. ”

Xin Qiji didn't speak, he was thinking about Yue Wudi's words, although what Yue Wudi said, all of them were speculations, and there was no evidence, but Xin Qiji was such a keen person, he could naturally detect that these speculations were not groundless.

After a long time, he asked, "In case Mongolia really becomes a disaster for the Great Song Dynasty in the future, do you have any strategy and can you solve it?"

Yue Wudi smiled bitterly and said: "Master Xin, you are extremely talented, there is no good way, I am a young boy, what is the best way? ”

"But my Great Song Dynasty is weak, even if I fight with the Jin State, it is difficult to have a big victory, if Mongolia is really not even an opponent of the Jin State, then my Great Song Dynasty, how can I use my strength to break the force?" Xin Qi asked with a change in his eyes.

Yue Wudi said: "With the strength of the current imperial court, it is naturally impossible to contend with Mongolia in the future, but we still have time and strength, and it is not impossible to grow." ”

Xin Qiji looked at Yue Wudi with his eyes and said, "The imperial court doesn't know how to make progress, how can the military strength grow?"

Yue Wudi's eyes were dark, and he also looked at Xin Qiji, and said: "When Lord Xin was in the Northland, he recruited warriors to resist Jin from his scattered family wealth, and the world spread it as a righteous act, and the force under Lord Xin was stronger than the army of the Song Dynasty, and now, the Song Dynasty was corrupt, can't we fight against Jin on our own?"
