The Jin army besieged the city, and the Song emperor’s daughter died

Chapter 209
Chun Xia led Li Bangyan and others towards the inner hall.

Gao Chong looked left and right along the way, thinking about the inside and outside of Akihito Palace. Apart from the normal guards, he didn't see anything special.

It doesn't look like a prisoner's pomp at all.

When they arrived outside the inner hall, Chun Xia stopped and saluted, "Everyone, please wait here while I go in and report."

As soon as Chun Xia finished speaking, he heard a scolding coming from the inner hall: "You are so outrageous! Do you really think I can't deal with you?"

male voice!

There is a male voice in the official palace?
And it's so... full of energy.

Who is he talking to?

Who is he scolding?
Everyone was stunned and looked at each other.

Just as Li Bangyan was about to explain, the male voice appeared again: "I, Zhao Huan, said that I have sat in the East Palace and controlled Kaifeng. Who do you think you are? How dare you act recklessly with me here! Whether these three towns can be separated or not is my decision. Do you have the final say, or do you have the final say? Get it for me!"

This "Get it for me!" made the people waiting outside the hall no longer think about it.

Yue Fei and Gao Chong jumped forward!
Chun Xia and Li Bangyan exclaimed in unison: "No!"

The next second, Zhao Huan, who was working hard in the performance, suddenly felt a sharp pain in his back and legs.

Accompanied by the sound of cracking bones, the whole person knelt down in front of Zhao Fujin with a pop.

Zhao Fujin was so frightened by the sudden turn of events that he stood up in an instant. Looking closely, he saw that Yue Fei and Gao Chong had pinned the King to the ground, and the King howled like a pig: "It hurts! It hurts! ah!"

"Official family, I'm late to save you..."

Zhao Fujin jumped off the couch with his bare feet, ran towards a few people, and pushed Gao Chong and Yue Fei away: "Are you two crazy? Let go!"

Gao Chong and Yue Fei let go of their hands in confusion, forcing Wang Zhaohuan to raise his head with tears in his eyes, looking at Zhao Fujin with sorrow in his eyes: "Sister..."

"Bang!"

A vase bloomed on King Bi's head. Zhao Fujin looked up again and saw Zhang Xiaochun holding half of the vase, standing behind King Bi: "I'm too late to save you..."

Zhao Fujin also froze on the spot, looking at Yue Fei and Gao Chong, then at Zhang Xiaochun, and finally his eyes fell on Li Bangyan.

Li Bangyan didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "I was forced to do so!"

"Go and call the doctor!"

……

……

In the front hall of Akihito Palace, a few people who knew what happened had their heads lowered and dared not speak, like a few children who had done something wrong.

"Oh, it's good now. No one is sitting in the imperial study for me. How can we still perform this play?"

Zhao Fujin looked at a few people with a wry smile.

"Officials, this... I am confused." Zhang Xiaochun bowed and said: "The battle in Taiyuan was fought well. General Yue is fully capable of keeping Wanyan Zonghan in Taiyuan, why bother?"

Zhao Fujin was unhappy at this time and even bothered to explain to him: "Do I want to explain the court affairs to you in detail?"

Zhang Xiaochun was frightened: "I don't dare, it's just..."

"Oh, Magistrate Zhang! Officials naturally have their own reasons for doing things. You only focus on your one-third of an acre in Taiyuan, but what the officials have to consider is the entire Song Dynasty, and even the entire Song Dynasty..."

Li Bangyan suddenly couldn't find a word.

"Dongya!" Zhao Fujin added for him: "You can resist Taiyuan, but can you annihilate Yan Zonghan? Yue Fei, can you?" Yue Fei said nothing.

Obviously, given the strength of the Taiyuan garrison, they are more than capable of defending the city, but if they really want to completely annihilate the Jin Kingdom's West Route Army, it is purely Yelang's arrogance.

"You have defended Taiyuan, with outstanding military achievements and generous awards, but what about the imperial court?" Zhao Fujin knocked on the table and asked: "What should I do if Wanyan Zonghan cannot attack Taiyuan? Naturally, I will withdraw my troops. In half a year, I will be ready to attack again. , you guys keep guarding! You don’t have to do anything in the court anymore, you have to prepare for war every day, right?"

Zhao Fujin sighed deeply: "Li Bangyan, tell me!"

Zui cleared Li Bangyan's throat: "You are relieved, but the imperial court's money cannot support it. In the past six months, the imperial court has almost emptied its treasury in order to prepare for war. This is only half a year. If this happens again, If it drags on for three to five years, the Jin army won't even have to fight, and the imperial court will be impoverished!"

After all, Zhang Xiaochun is the prefect of a state, and he can probably calculate the material and financial resources needed to prepare for war.

"Then...it would have been better to have given up on Taiyuan back then." The bad temper of the scholar-bureaucrats of the Song Dynasty was vividly reflected in Zhang Xiaochun.

"I am the emperor, not a goddess. How could I have imagined that you would beat Wanyan Zonghan like this?" Zhao Fujin laughed angrily: "At the beginning, I just wanted Taiyuan to consume the strength of the West Route Army, and the pressure on Kaifeng would be less, right? , but you...you..."

Zhao Fujin originally wanted to say: "You guys played so beautifully." But after thinking about it, he seemed to be blaming someone.

"In short, I have to let you withdraw and let the main force of the Jin army go to Kaifeng. The fate of the country will be determined by the battle in Kaifeng! But if you want to withdraw, you must have a reason. I am just putting on a show. Don't forget, the Jin people are here There must be a source of information in Kaifeng."

Yue Fei understood what Zhao Fujin meant.

It is a war with the Kingdom of Jin, which should be fought sooner rather than later, bigger rather than smaller. If we don't fight a tug-of-war, we will fight a battle over the fate of the country.

As for the three ceded towns, after one battle, if the Song Dynasty wins, the Jin Kingdom will not be able to capture it. Won't these three towns come back?
"Hmph! I might as well explain it to you clearly, lest you do bad things with good intentions." Zhao Fujin patted the table: "When the Jin army surrounds Kaifeng, we only have to defeat them, Wanyan Zonghan and Wanyan Zongwang's heads, we don't take!"

Yue Fei:......

Gao Chong:......

Zhang Xiaochun:......

"Whether it is left to Yelu Dashi or to the Liao army who have already paid gold, let them play with this kind of unrelenting national hatred. No matter how they fight, the winner in the end will be us, the Song Dynasty. Zhao Fujin then explained: "The three princesses of Liao Kingdom have already sent a letter to Yelu Dashi. It won't be long before they come from the west. As long as we defeat the main force of the Jin army, they will be taken care of on their way back to Jin." them."

Hearing this, Yue Fei said: "Yelü Dashi is coming to join forces to attack, and we have to defeat Xixia. But Xixia has already surrendered to Jin..."

Zhao Fujin smiled and said: "Don't worry too much. I know very well what Xixia's urine is. Yao Pingzhong of Yan'an Prefecture has already sent an envoy to Xixia."

Everyone finally understands the military part of Zhao Fujin's game.

The main force of the Jin army was lured deep into the enemy's territory, and the battle for national destiny was launched in Kaifeng. They were defeated without killing, and allowed the Jin army to collapse and flee north. When the time comes, Yelu Dashi will lead his army to cover up the enemy. Even if they cannot completely annihilate them, the Jin army's wealth over the years will be considered Lost.

The political aspect is obviously much more complicated than purely military.

The Song Dynasty was a war of self-defense and counterattack, a war of justice, but even so, it was the most benevolent and righteous thing to retreat from the enemy without killing.However, Yelu Dashi and Jin hated the country's subjugation, so they would definitely not spare anyone.If the Liao ministers and the Liao army, who have already paid gold, know that the main force of the Jin army has been destroyed, the Jin court will definitely be in chaos.

If Wanyan Sheng was incapable, the Jin Kingdom would be destroyed, the Jurchens would retreat to the White Mountains and Black Waters, the Liao Kingdom would be rebuilt, and the Sixteenth State of Yanyun would inevitably return to the Song Dynasty.

If Wanyan Sheng had the skills, even if he could stabilize the situation, he would still have to give up a lot of ground. The Liao Kingdom would recover some of its lost territory and confront Jin.When the time comes, the Liao Kingdom will be grateful to the Song Dynasty for helping it regain its lost territory, and the Jin Kingdom will only burn its anger towards the Yelu Dashi. Between the three countries, the Song Dynasty only needs to adjust its strategy at any time according to the development of the situation, and it is easy to do so.

Even if the Song Dynasty and Song Dynasty do not help each other, they will obtain a favorable external environment and it will last for a long time. During this period, as long as the established strategy of going to the southeast is implemented well, Liao, Jin and Xixia will all be younger brothers. Song could fuck them whenever he wanted.

"I understand, I will force the king now..."

Before Zhang Xiaochun finished speaking, Han Shizhong hurriedly came to report: "Official, official, the scouts are here to report."

Han Shizhong rushed into the front hall. When he saw so many people, he was stunned and immediately reported: "Wanyan Zongwang's East Route Army has arrived in Qingcheng, Kaifeng."

Everyone was shocked, so fast?
Zhao Fujin also looked confused: "Is this guy stupid?"
