At a time when the situation between the Song and Jin states was becoming more and more tense, two pieces of news quickly escalated the scale of the war that had not yet begun, and His Royal Highness King Rong, who was in power in the Dajin state, announced that he would personally lead his troops south to destroy the Song state, and the emperor of the Song state, Zhao Yun, also announced that in order to avenge the first emperor, he would drive the imperial expedition in person.

This is the rhythm of a battle to the death!

The Mongols were ecstatic about this, they didn't expect that just an assassination would play such a wonderful role, and when the two countries were defeated by the Mongols, happiness came so suddenly, so that these Mongol warriors were a little incredulous, no wonder the Central Plains people liked to use stratagem, it turned out that a good stratagem was more effective than the rush of thousands of troops.

Yang Kang was able to drive the expedition is his hard work, it is not easy to convince Shi Miyuan and the empress dowager, although he is only a puppet, but he is a symbol of the whole country, appearing on the front line of the war can certainly boost morale, but once defeated, especially death or capture, it is a shame for the whole country.

However, the emperor could not help but go, it was useless to control the situation in front of him and sit in the palace, only to seize the military power with his own hands, so he did not hesitate to show that he was stronger, which might cause Shi Miyuan's jǐng Jue, but in order to prevent this war between the Song State and the Jin State, he couldn't care much more.

In the winter of the first year of Song Guobaoqing, Zhao Yun, the emperor of the Song Dynasty, drove the expedition in person, Prime Minister Shi Miyuan stayed in the Lin'an Imperial City, and Xie Yili, a waiter in the Hanlin Academy, accompanied him.

After a few rì, the emperor came to Xiangyang Mansion, which was the forefront of the confrontation between the Song State and the Jin State, at this time the guard of Xiangyang City was called Meng Zongzheng, the ancestor of the Meng family Meng An was Yue Fei's general, and Meng Zongzheng's son Meng Heng left a glorious mark in history, in the later war between the Song State and Mongolia, Meng Heng dominated the war on the second half of the Song State with the power of one person, and was called the master of mobile defense by later generations, and was an outstanding military commander.

Yang Kang didn't know these histories, he just heard that Meng Zongzheng was quite a general, and after coming to Xiangyang City, he summoned this Meng general, and after listening to Meng Zongzheng's preparations and strategies for this war, His Majesty the emperor asked Xie Yili to take out the topographical map of Xiangyang and began to explain how the war should be conducted.

General Meng closed his eyes in pain, what he was most worried about finally happened, he understood that the emperor had just ascended the throne and needed a victory to increase his prestige, but such a random command was going to cause a big incident, and the soldiers under him who died were all killed, and the emperor completely overthrew his strategy of focusing on defense and waiting for an opportunity to counterattack, but took the attack as the focus.

Paper!

Meng Zongzheng couldn't help but think of this allusion in history, it was precisely because Zhao Kuo of the Zhao State in the pre-Qin period did not know how to be flexible and commanded indiscriminately, and the 400,000 Zhao troops who led the Battle of Changping were killed, should history repeat itself in Xiangyang City? Thinking of this, Meng Zongzheng was not angry in his heart, and interrupted the explanation of His Majesty the Emperor without authorization.

"Your Majesty, the battlefield is ever-changing, and if you make a plan early, I'm afraid it will affect the fighters. Meng Zongzheng admonished tactfully.

"General Meng, I know what you think in your heart, but this time you must follow the plan, if you change it without permission, then don't blame me for being ruthless, you don't think about yourself, but also for your family. Yang Kang said coldly, "This is not your war alone. ”

Meng Zongzheng's heart was cold, he seemed to have foreseen the situation of corpses everywhere outside Xiangyang City, the emperor was not only mediocre, but also very vicious, with such a mood he left the emperor's palace and returned to his mansion, his four sons were waiting in the mansion, seeing his father's lost look, he thought that his father was reprimanded by the emperor.

There was a sand table in Meng's mansion, and General Meng reluctantly deduced the emperor's strategy on the sand table......

"Isn't this a fake fight?" Meng Heng, who was watching from the sidelines, wondered, "It's just that how did the emperor know that the Jin people would definitely be in such a formation?"

Half a month ago, in the palace of King Rong in the Imperial City of Kaifeng, King Rong looked at the former prime minister of the Dajin Kingdom in front of him.

"Did he let this king accompany him to fake a fight?" King Rong said in a deep voice, "Isn't it child's play for hundreds of thousands of troops to be dispatched. ”

"Lord Wang, since Your Majesty has made this plan, he will definitely guarantee that there will be no accidents. Lou Shidao said respectfully, "The minister has already come here as a hostage, can't the prince still believe His Majesty?"

"Believe him?" the third prince snorted coldly, "How much did he deceive this king?"

"Lord Wang, that's all in the past. Lou Shidao persuaded, "When the minister came, His Majesty asked the minister to convey a word to the prince. ”

"Oh, what's that?" asked King Rong lightly.

"His Majesty said that he would never attack the Kingdom of Jin in his life. Lou Shidao relayed.

King Rong was silent, and finally didn't say anything, just let out a long sigh.

The war between the Song and the Jin finally began, in the two cities of Xiangyang and Zaoyang gathered nearly 600,000 troops of the two countries, and the attacks were continuous, and now the Jin soldiers attacked the city, and the Ming Song soldiers attacked the city, and they were very busy, and the Song soldiers had already evacuated when the Jin soldiers attacked the city, and the Jin soldiers were not in it when the Song soldiers attacked the city.

Once the city is captured, it will report how many enemies are killed, how much they have lost, as if they really killed so many enemies, the two sides launched a fierce battle in Xiangyang City, a month down, the death and wound of the sergeant in the palace report has exceeded 100,000, the battle situation is extremely tragic, in fact, the number of dead and wounded is only less than 100 people, some of these people are injured by mistake, and some are unlucky to be hit by something when they retreat.

This is undoubtedly a big lie, but it requires the extremely accurate cāo control ability of the commanders of both sides, in case one of the troops is good at making claims and killing the other party's men and horses, it will lead the two countries to a full-scale war, which is the reason why Yang Kang wants to drive the expedition in person, and why he wants to force Meng Zongzheng to follow the plan, this scene is not only for the people of the Song State, but also for the Mongols.

His Majesty the Emperor made a live-action version of the offensive and defensive game with hundreds of thousands of troops as chess pieces, treating war as child's play, this kind of play is afraid that only he can afford to play this kind of game, and only his three uncles will accompany him to play so crazy, just like in the Rongwang Mansion, the two drew their swords and faced each other, but they couldn't bear to kill each other.

Meng Zongzheng no longer doubted this plan of the Emperor Majesty, but began to wonder why the Emperor Majesty could have known the strategy of the Jin people in advance, and what was the purpose of this scene? The Emperor did not give an answer, he could only guess by himself, I am afraid that this is not only to calm the people's anger, but also has many meanings.

Yang Kang couldn't control how Meng Zongzheng guessed, he was in another war, and the Jin State was a fake fight, and the Valley of Despair was a real fight, he had already wanted to take the Valley of Desperation for himself, but His Majesty the Emperor was no longer the lone hero who once broke into the tiger's den, since he had a large army in his hands, why should he go to the Valley of Desperation by himself? What if there was an accident? The poison of the love flower would kill people.

So the emperor shamelessly used the power in his hands to mobilize 30,000 troops to march towards the Valley of Despair, on the grounds that there were assassins who assassinated the emperor, so it is not wrong, Gongsun Zhi and Qiu Qianren are related, Qiu Qianren assassinated the Emperor of the Song State that was to connect the nine clans, Yang Kang just took the opportunity to level the Valley of Desperation, he had already learned from Peng Lianhu about the path to the Valley of Despair, but what he didn't expect was that at this time, the masters in the Valley of Desperation gathered, and the situation was strange.
