I am Da Song

Chapter 178 Defeat of Jingpotian's Shenwu Youjun
The next day after the court meeting, Mei Zhili approached Zhao Huan with a smile, and said, "Officials, the members of the Xixia envoys left overnight. I want to seek Ning Keren and I am extremely eager to pass this news back to Xixia."

Zhao Huan nodded slightly, and said: "It will take more than a month to go back and forth from Tokyo to Shaanxi. It means that the Xixia monarchs and ministers have to communicate with each other at most twice before making a decision. It is very possible that the Song Dynasty will surrender without fighting. "

"It's just that the left minister thinks how likely it is that Xixia and our dynasty will fight against gold together?"

Mei Zhili pondered for a moment, and replied solemnly: "People's hearts are the most difficult to ponder. The Xixia national policy is all based on Li Qianshun's will. If Li Qianshun thinks that our dynasty's military power is unparalleled, even if all the ministers of the dynasty are pro-Song, he will be firm with Jin. Congressional League."

"If Li Qianshun thinks that the state of Jin is powerful, the pro-Song ministers of the DPRK and China will exert more influence, and it will also prompt him to resolutely join our DPRK in an alliance against Jin."

Zhao Huan thought about it and replied: "In this case, it is best to appoint a prime minister of Xixia."

Zhao Huan couldn't help laughing when he said that, isn't this the way that Jin Guo designated Qin Hui as the prime minister of the Southern Song Dynasty?The basis of the peace talks between the two parties was the appointment of Qin Hui as prime minister in the Southern Song Dynasty.

Mei Zhili said: "In addition to this, Xia Guo should also see clearly that Jinren is the current formidable enemy, and it cannot be resisted by a single country."

Zhao Huan laughed loudly, and said: "We can't let the front line defeat the soldiers so that Xixia can see the might of the Jin Kingdom."

"Perhaps what the officials said is no longer a joke!" Li Gang's strong voice sounded, and then the young and vigorous prime minister approached with vigorous steps.

Seeing Li Gang's serious face, Zhao Huan also retracted his smile, and asked, "What is the meaning of the right minister's words?"

Li Gang said solemnly: "Officials, it is already June. Autumn has already begun in July, and August should be the anti-autumn timekeeping festival at the latest."

"The Kingdom of Jin is a newly emerging country. In the past two years, any invasion has brought disaster to the Central Plains. Our dynasty has never experienced border defense in autumn. But this autumn, when the grass is fat and horses are strong, the Jin army is likely to take advantage of the situation to invade."

Mei Zhili also agreed very much, saying: "Beibirong people have been troubled since ancient times, and they often violate fortresses in autumn. The defense of the two rivers must not be slowed down."

Now it is no longer a question of whether Da Song should take the initiative to defeat a battle on the front line. It is very likely that he will suffer another disastrous defeat in this golden man's invasion.

For Xixia, Song Dynasty can threaten and intimidate, exaggerate its military strength, subdue others without fighting, and coerce and lure the other party to return the land of Song Dynasty.

But really returning to the strategic deployment, the chief executives of the Song Dynasty are very clear that in the war between the Song and Jin Dynasties, the Song Dynasty did not occupy a strategic advantage.

Although the Jin people suffered a disastrous defeat under the city of Tokyo, more than 5 people were killed and [-] or [-] soldiers were injured, which was not enough to shake the powerful military strength of the Jin Dynasty.

The Jinren's Meng'an Mouke system is a more stringent conscription system than the Song Dynasty's conscription law. During the war, three-one draws can easily mobilize another [-] troops to go south.

The Jin people can experience at least three more defeats like the fiasco in Tokyo.

And it refers to the extremely tragic battle in which [-] hard troops were almost wiped out by the Song Dynasty.

If it was the casualties of other troops, it would have almost no impact on the military strength of the Kingdom of Jin.If the Jin people complete the integration of the Liao State in a few years, the troops of other tribes can continue to flow.

If the replenishment is not enough, Jin Guo can also implement the military signing system, and there will be as much cannon fodder as you want.

In this case, the Golden Army still has the ability to form an army of 10,000+ to go south.This time the Jinren will not go deep alone, and it is very likely that they will attack Hedong and Hebei in a steady and steady manner.

Moreover, the biggest advantage that the Jin army could not exert on the Tokyo battlefield-the advantage of cavalry, will be fully exerted in the northern plains!
This will be the biggest challenge Song Jun has to face.

The situation in the Song Dynasty is still urgent, and the internal and external troubles can be described as precarious.

But what is gratifying is that, unlike the despair in the past when powerful enemies pressed the border, in today's precarious situation, everyone can see a bright ray of hope.

Li Gang, the prime minister of the war faction, comforted: "The officials don't need to worry too much. Since the retreat of the Jin people, Hebei and Hedong have been repairing their military equipment and strengthening their defenses. The armies of the two places have also expanded several times. , close to [-]. It will never make the Jin people go straight in again and threaten the capital."

Zhao Huan nodded solemnly, and said: "Since it has been properly handled, I can accept it regardless of victory or defeat. Victory means that the Kingdom of Jin is no longer in trouble, and our dynasty can stabilize its defense and accumulate strength. This time, the Great Song Dynasty is taking back Yan with force. Clouds, the Li court was swept away, and Mobei was clarified."

"Even if you lose, it will allow Xixia to see clearly the strength of the Jin Kingdom, prevent Xixia from seeking skins from tigers, and sincerely join us in an alliance to fight against Jin."

The Great Song Dynasty set the regulations, and the entire court would not be in a panic, and would not be helpless or caught off guard in the upcoming Jin invasion.

But even though the Song court was ready for defeat, when the defeat came, it still shocked the entire Tokyo city, and the crying in Tokyo city was loud.

The tall and straight spines of the civil and military courts of the Manchu Dynasty were bent, and the imperial court's solitude and aloofness almost collapsed.

On the contrary, the scholar-bureaucrats who were oppressed by the imperial court rejoiced, and the ambitions of countless people just around the corner sprouted again.

Because the first defeat did not come from the Two Rivers Theater, but from Jiangnan!

The mainstay of the imperial court, the most important weapon to suppress all ambitions, the sharpest blade in the hands of the officials of the Song Dynasty, composed of the most loyal, loyal and tenacious citizens in Tokyo, the invincible and invincible Shenwu Youjun, who swept the world, fell!
Thousands of people were defeated in Jinghu South Road, and the whole army was annihilated. Yue Fan, the younger brother of Yue Fei, the Duke of Wuchang County in the Song Dynasty, the Taiwei of the Procuratorate, and the deputy envoy of the Privy Council, died in battle.

Yue Fei, the god of war who had been placed with high hopes by the court of the Song Dynasty and expected to be able to conquer the south of the Yangtze River in March, unexpectedly encountered a twists and turns.

In particular, those who died in the battle were all the closest soldiers in Tokyo City. Millions of soldiers and civilians in Tokyo City were in an uproar, and countless people were worried that there would be their own children among the soldiers who died in battle.Countless families were in tears.

The literati and bureaucrats rejoiced and impeached Yue Fei, accusing him of improper deployment and cronyism, which led to the defeat, which shocked the government and the public, caused an uproar in material discussions, and disturbed people's hearts.

It seems that Shenwu Youjun's defeat this time was not a loss of a commander, but that the main force was all killed in battle.

But in fact, Yue Fan was just a commander of the Shenwu Youjun, one of the many commanders who followed Zhang Xian to attack Cao Cheng, and he was not considered nepotism at all.

Moreover, no one would have imagined that, under the overwhelming situation, there was a strong general in Cao Cheng's army who could turn the tide and lead his troops to meet the Shenwu Youjun.It is a rare thing for such a hero to appear in the reckless army without serving the country.

So the soldiers and civilians of the Song Dynasty all paid attention to this fierce general named Yang Zaixing.

And Zhang Xian, who was in charge of the crusade against Cao Cheng, was also furious, and immediately mobilized troops from all fronts, vowing to crush Yang Zaixing's troops.

When the battle report reached Tokyo, Zhang Xian had personally led the army to attack Yang Zaixing's troops.
