Powerful Song Dynasty

Chapter 1147 The Contest of North-South Strategic Situation

"Fortunately, over the years, our suppression of the grasslands has weakened the Qiyan and Kelie people, and they will not pose much threat. It's just that the eastern part of Koryo has been infiltrated too much, and Ganghwa Island is too close to Kaesong. It should be planned as soon as possible."

Zhang Qiyuan also felt the same way. The number of guards stationed in the outer islands of the Song Dynasty has increased to three, forming a siege to the north and south of Koryo, and opening up water passages together with the country of Japan. Not to mention earning a lot of money, they actually control coastal arteries and form The pearl chain at sea can quickly transport troops to places where they are needed.

These did not pose much substantial threat to the eastern part of Dajin, but because of his laziness as an imperial envoy, things became complicated.

Tarlan has a lot of old departments, and he is also very strategic. Over the past few years, he has won the hearts of the Jurchens, but it has had a certain impact.What's worse, the Xing Dynasty of the Great Song Dynasty bestowed upon him the Jurchen King of Liao, and the inner sanctuary of the Jue Kaifu Yitong, allowing the establishment of mansions and officials, and still retaining the customs of the Jurchen. Formed a team of 3000 people.

In fact, what makes the Jurchen heart-wrenching is that, as the noble chieftains of the Jurchen, the Falcons and Huli Hutu live a very comfortable life. After the court gave them top environmental sanitation officers and named them Jiedu Observatory, they were not generals. I am very fascinated by the prosperity of Jiangning.

Falcon lived even more excessively. He bought a large amount of land with reward money and built a luxurious house by the Xuanwu Lake.

However, the imperial court is very tolerant to them, as long as you live in peace of mind and don't have any ambitions, then you are allowed to make troubles. The matter was spread to the north by interested people, which aroused the envy of many Jurchen noble chiefs.

It's true that they are rich and honored, but they can't compare to the prosperity of the Song Dynasty. It is a lie to say that they don't want to be born Chinese.

Wudai and Udabu are different from their clan uncles.Both of them had great ambitions, and entered the guard Ma Jun University one after another, and successively joined the guard Ma Jun Division.

Wu Dabu had been in the Hexi Army for two years and served as the battalion commander. He was merciless against the soldiers of the Zhan Jin Army. Even Yue Fei valued him very much. He is a child of the Jurchen royal family. He was promoted to deputy town envoy in the third turn, which was a horseshoe disease in the spring breeze.

However, Wudai has been following Talan's side all the time, and his identity is the Deputy Dudu of the Temple Sigong Holy Army, who joined the army and mastered three thousand elites.That's right, it's the pseudonymous Deputy Du Shen of the Gongsheng Army. Although it's a false title, it represents the court's favor. The Gongsheng Army is Wang Xiu's direct line!

Their respective life attitudes showed the future of the Jurchens. It is not a bad thing to surrender to the Song dynasty.

Wu Shu thought of Talan, and was really very angry, and said bitterly: "Back then, it was a step too late, and let Talan's thieves run rampant."

He La's face was not good-looking, and his lazy behavior seriously endangered his rule, especially when this guy was active in Korea, which made him feel like a thorn in his throat, and he couldn't help saying: "We must not let him live."

Zhang Qiyuan suddenly shivered, and hurriedly said: "Your lord, you can't."

"Huh?" He Shui's eyes were not friendly, and he stared at Zhang Qiyuan closely, like a ferocious beast that would pounce on him if he made a mistake.

Wu Shu was a little surprised, turned to look at Zhang Qiyuan, and said in a deep voice, "How?"

Zhang Qiyuan avoided his red eyes, organized his words a little, and said calmly: "Master Lang, let's not talk about the guards around Taran. It is unknown whether he can get close. Even if he sends someone to kill him successfully, the Southern Dynasty will not be able to pass a pawn." , can be completely replaced by another person, on the contrary, it has aroused the fighting spirit of the traitor, and made the Southern Dynasty's conspiracy succeed, Da Jin is not worth the loss."

"Besides, the North and the South reached a tacit agreement under the stalemate, and did not assassinate the other party's high-ranking officials, so as not to cause vicious confrontation. It is not worthwhile to break the bottom line for mere laziness."

Wu Shu silently nodded, thinking that what Zhang Qiyuan said was reasonable. There were many battles between the north and the south, and life and death depended on each other on the battlefield.Whether it is the Speed ​​Department or the General Affairs Department, they behave in a tacit understanding with each other, and at most they are limited to small officials who are threatening. If the two sides fight back and forth, wouldn't it be a mess.

A glint of coldness flashed across He Shui's eyes, but he didn't continue. Instead, he said, "Have you made a decision whether to defend or abandon Heishui City?"

"It's hard to defend." Wu Shu shook his head and said absently.

Zhang Qiyuan caught the unkindness in He Sashi's eyes, his heart trembled, and he always felt a little chilly all over his body.

He Shui's complexion was even worse, and he said in a deep voice, "Wouldn't it be impossible to threaten Hexi by giving up Heishui City?"

"Master Lang, the black water army is alone in the west. It is very costly to transfer food and grass, and it is too laborious to maintain an army of tens of thousands. Besides, Wulahai City and Tiande army are also overwhelmed, so they can only abandon the black water. It is the best policy to keep the pressure on Haihai City and let their Shaanxi, Lingxia and Hexi troops not look east."

"Marshal Du is right. For the sake of Heishui City, it is not worth the loss to restrain [-] manpower." Zhang Qiyuan also agreed with the withdrawal of troops. Heishui City has more than [-] people stationed, but it cannot pose a real threat to Hexi, and it needs to supply a large amount of supplies every year. , It is simply a waste of national power.

You must know that [-] horse troops are stationed thousands of miles away, and it takes [-] to [-] people to pay for the transfer. The Song Dynasty may be able to afford it, but Dajin cannot afford it.

"The Southern Dynasties won Hexi, and there is bound to be great development." He Shui's expression was helpless, and his words had already softened.

"Lord, the black water is already useless. Transferring the main force to Hebei can better suppress the Southern Dynasty. Besides, if Hexi is completely bordered by the grassland, the Tatars and Merqi people can also go south smoothly, so that they will not live in peace. "

"Marshal Du is justified. It doesn't cost a lot of money to kill them. They are exhausted and have to maintain a large force in Hexi." Zhang Qiyuan clapped his hands and praised. Wushu's plan is very good. The prairie barbarians went south, for fear that the Song army would go north with an excuse.

Completely let go of a hole, retreat into Wulahai City by yourself, and let all the grassland tribes go south to Hexi. Even if the Song Army is angry, they will not dare to pay for anything. Do you have the ability to take Wurahai City?
"Forget it, this matter will be presided over by Marshal Du, and we must do our best to keep quiet and make no further disturbances." He Shui's tone was very unpleasant.

Wushu was nothing but Zhang Qiyuan's face darkened. The western strategy had given up on Blackwater City, which marked a complete failure. He had been in charge from the beginning, and the embarrassment until now gave him a sense of crisis.

If he hadn't been quite effective in internal affairs, he might have fallen out of favor with He Assassin. Thinking about how he had offended so many Jurchen noble chiefs, he would die by then.

Perhaps, the coldness all over the body just now originated from this!He sighed softly, his eyes wandering.
