Powerful Song Dynasty

Chapter 776 Wang Xiu's plan for Tarlan
Wang Xiu saw that Li Gang and Tarlan had a strong smell of gunpowder, and there was a lot of trickery in it. Besides, the two could really fight, and he didn't want to have a good banquet and break up unhappy.

Looking left and right, he said with a smile: "The north and the south stopped their troops to recuperate, but they had to manage the key points, just like the three prefectures, Zhang Tonggu wanted to get them but couldn't, and the imperial court was unable to control them. It is worthwhile to manage the South China Sea, but Koryo Fanbang also needs to be deterred by a large army, and it is close to Shangjing, so it must be operated."

Tarlan curled his lips, understanding the real purpose of the banquet, what a boldness!Wang Xiu is no longer limited to regaining lost ground, but looks at the world, not to mention Koryo.

Speaking of Fuzhou alone, there is a metaphor. Fuzhou Road is known as Xijing, and to the north is the grassland. It has always been a place where Hulu run, and their threat to Jurchen is obvious.When he was the commander-in-chief, he also conquered the grassland, and even the strength of the opponent made him look sideways. Wang Xiu obviously had great intentions in plotting the grassland.

Of course, he is a smart person, so he can naturally taste the taste, and his own use value is very great, no less than that of the grassland tribes. It seems that leisurely tasting wine and watching chrysanthemums is not enough!
"The prince of the state is a hero, and the court is the time to do things, when it is time to do something! It is only natural for the court to wear robes again." Wang Xiu said with a smile, her tone was encouraging, and it was by no means a false excuse.

Tarlan was already aroused a little pride, although Wang Xiu's words were too watery, they had to be said to give him hope, and he had no doubts about Da Song's power.

Not to mention the well-equipped officials in front of the palace, he alone was guarding the naval camp on Salmon Island. What he saw and heard made him startled and he thought about it secretly.

I actually saw cement roads, double rails, and super-large warships that I have never seen in my life. The most shocking thing is the huge crossbow machine. A single salvo can definitely sink a warship. An absolute nightmare for defenders.

The development of the Song army's individual equipment far surpassed that of the Jin army. The hand-throwing iron cannons and the iron cannons of the small catapults alone made him think that the Jurchens had no hope. Of course, it took time to settle. In order to complete quantitative change to qualitative change.

What shocked him the most was that the vigor of the generals of the Song Army was by no means what it was ten years ago. When he talked with the generals of the guards and waters, when he talked about conquering the South China Sea and opening up territories, these generals were full of pride. It comes from the heart.

He was amazed by the achievements of the Song army in the South China Sea, and even more surprised that tens of thousands of troops were organized to march south. He even bluntly said in front of him that the navy generals would command Yanshan. Without them, it will inevitably push the pace of the entire empire forward.

When he really saw the national power and military strength of the Great Song Dynasty, he never believed that Wushu could continue to go south.Perhaps, the Song Army's strategic mistakes in Hebei led to the defeat of this war, but the Jin Army also failed to win.

As a veteran commander, he could tell at a glance that the Song army retreated on its own initiative, and what the Jurchens got was a dilapidated city. The population of Hebei was reduced by more than half, and the Song army's second loss in Hebei was almost negligible.

In the defeat of Hedong, only two armies were severely damaged. The tenacious resistance of the Song army prevented the Jin army from annihilating the two armies, and the Western servants retreated slowly, calmly leaving the Jin army helpless.

Seeing that the North-South alliance was completed, the Jurchens seemed to be keeping huge benefits, but they only kept them. Compared with the huge consumption, the terms of the alliance were almost worthless, which also made him feel that his previous proposal was absolutely correct.

Da Jin really can't compete with Da Song for a long time. He has a vigorous viability, but Da Jin is once full of blood, and then he will sink into boundless.

The Great Song Dynasty was of great use to him, but he was really tired of the endless fights. Since he got on the Song Army's naval ship, he planned to completely break with the past.

Now, his life is really good, with a monthly salary of [-] guan, a deep house, a thousand acres of fertile land, charming beauties, and rewards every year. Land, live a leisurely old life, no longer care about trifles in the rivers and lakes.

"I'm old, there are talents from generation to generation, a certain old man, his robes have faded long ago, and young talents in the imperial court emerge in endlessly, let them show their talents!" He was a little discouraged, and gave birth to infinite depression.

Li Gang raised his brows, and looked at him playfully. The incomparable Marshal of the Jin Army back then was actually depressed to such an extent, which made him feel much better.At least, he was in charge of the thriving Song Dynasty, and he didn't lose his vigor, and he became more passionate, but his opponent Fang Xin gradually grew old.

Wang Xiu was a bit chilled. Tarlan was also an outstanding Jurchen figure. No matter how many Song cities he captured, how many Song people he killed, and how many Song royal families he humiliated, he had to admit that this man was both wise and brave, and he was definitely at the level of a commander. It's a pity that the characters are so depressed to the extreme.

It has to be said that Tarlan has a strategic vision, and the Jurchen's strategy is to maintain friendship with Song, which is the way to survive.It's a pity that there is no deviation in the world to account for. If you want to really have a good relationship with the Great Song Dynasty, you can only return the land and submit to the Great Song Dynasty. This is absolutely unacceptable.

"Alright, the spring breeze in the south of the Yangtze River is intoxicating. If the Duke wants to be at ease, it can be regarded as a retirement home!"

Tarlan didn't seem to care about Wang Xiu's stimulation, and laughed loudly: "A certain soldier has fought all his life and killed too much, so he should have died long ago. It is the good fortune of Changshengtian to have a place to rest and rest in his later years. Dare to ask for extravagance."

Li Gang glanced at Wang Xiu. He and Wang Xiu had a purpose in entertaining guests. They would never lament for being lazy, and it was impossible for this guy to enjoy it. Even though he was defeated, he admired him very much, but a small setback, why did he end up here?"

At that time, the battle was commanded by Talan, and the Song army used the baggage truck as a barrier in an attempt to prevent the Jin army from going south.Talan outflanked with kidnappers, Bu Bazi approached, and defeated the Song army in one fell swoop, Li Gang was severely humiliated once.

In comparison, it is more heartwarming than the fiasco in rescue of Taiyuan. In Taiyuan, the top and bottom were not in one mind.The Battle of Heyang was an upright battle. A chain of chariots was used to defend against the horse army's attack, but was defeated by the Jin army's bandit horses. Fortunately, the battle was not serious and there was no shame.

However, in his heart, it was the most useless defeat, and he was ashamed to mention it in front of others. It was quite sincere to show it openly at this time, because he saw the future.

Wang Xiu looked at Talan and remained silent, and said seriously: "I heard that the Duke of the State has recently visited Buddhist temples and held meditation talks with eminent monks. It seems that he wants to focus on enlightenment and study Buddhism?"
