Chapter 209 War Clouds

Now the most eye-catching thing is that Liang Shan and Song Qing are the first to catch the attention of Wu Qimai. Therefore, after Li Ai said that there was Liang Shan's confidential information, he immediately came to his senses.

Only heard Shi Liai continue to say: "After the occupation of Henan, Hebei and Hedong, Song Qing swallowed the vast land south of Kaifeng and north of the Yangtze River, and recently forced the Song court to seal the land in Shu to him. Except for Hedong and Hebei, most of these places are officials of the Song Dynasty, and it is completely impossible to be completely with Liangshan."

"In addition, the land in Shu is still in the hands of the rebels Fang La. Obviously, it is unlikely that Song Qing wants to take it back in a short time. Therefore, the most important thing Song Qing should do at present is to consolidate his power, and he is unable to invade my big gold at all. The small actions made by Liang Shan people and horses at the border are just to confuse His Majesty, so that His Majesty can't fight against the rebels at ease, so as to achieve his purpose of profit."

After listening to Shi Liai's words, Wu Qimai couldn't help but be silent. Based on the information he got, it seemed that what Shi Liai said was very reasonable. There are also some similarities with Gao Qing's analysis.

If this is the case, you can also transfer many soldiers and horses back from the border to the division to suppress the rebellion. But what if Love can't say it at the moment? As soon as he transferred people from his side, Liang Shan's army followed him. Hasn't he really become a big sinner?

Suddenly, I heard Gao Qingyi's negative test and said, "These are just your words. Do you have any evidence that Liang Shan will not send troops?"

Just now, he said that Song Qing would not send troops, but now he has raised different opinions in order to attack Shi Liai. But this is exactly what Wu Qimai wants to hear.

Shi Liai seemed to have known Gao Qing's question and bowed and replied, "After pretending to defect to them, the guards of the guards were somewhat relaxed. Therefore, from their conversation and what they saw on the way back, I analyzed that Liang Shan had no intention of starting a soldier at all."

"Ha! What secrets can guards know? Did someone tell Lord Shi in person?"

It is not difficult to see from Wu Qimai's expression that the emperor had believed his words seven points. He glanced at Gao Qingyi, who was sarcastically, pretending not to hear what he said.

Then he said to Wu Qimai, "The two guards wanted to be transferred to the south in the chat. At that time, I was thinking that they had this idea for no reason. How could they have this idea? This is one, and the other is that on the way back, I saw that the troops stationed in Zhending had gone south one after another, which I analyzed from their clothes. Based on these two points, I concluded that Liang Shan and Song Qing would take advantage of the chaos in our country to send troops to govern the newly occupied land in the south."

"Your Majesty insisted that I come up with evidence. I really can't get it out, but I dared to ask Your Majesty to inquire about the spy of the Central Plains. Is what I said wrong?"

Of course, Wu Qimai will investigate. Jin Guo's spies in the Central Plains are not limited to one place. He nodded and smiled, "If it is true as you said, I will definitely get a reward"

paused and said, "The two rebels of Wanyan Zong came aggressively. What good strategy does Shi Qing have to retreat from the enemy?"

Shi Liai looked at Gao Qingyi with a blue face like a demonstration and said proudly, "I have a plan that can make the rebels break themselves without attack"

Isn't this a little big? Although Wu Qimai is a little disbelieving, he is still willing to listen to what he says.

"Your Majesty can issue an order to restore all positions of Wanyan and lead the army to suppress the rebellion"

After listening to Shi Liai's words, Wu Qimai couldn't help but be stunned. What kind of trick is this? Isn't giving the military power to Wanyantao with a rope around his neck?

But he soon understood the deeper meaning of Shi Liai. Restoring Wanyan's extremely strong authority is tantamount to restoring his right to inherit the throne and handing over the army to Wanyan to command. In this way, Wanyan Zonggan's excuse that he wanted to abolish the Jurchens's inheritance ancestor system will not break down. Even if he can't let the people of Wanyan Zong's brothers retreat, at least it can be disintegrated. Most of them rely on their tribal armed forces for this reason.

At the same time, the command seems to be in Wanyan's hands, but as long as the generals leading the troops are his own people, he also can't afford any storms. And after this, isn't it a matter of when you want to spend money on him?

Thinking of this, Wu Qi bought Longyan Dayue, who was indeed a person valued by himself and did not disappoint him.

nodded and said, "Okay, according to what you said, send a decree to Wanyangao, restore all his official positions, and make him king of Yue, and unify the army for me to suppress the rebellion."

"Your Majesty"

In a piece of praise, the monarch and minister of the State of Jin ended the conversation. Only Gao Qingyi looked at Shi Liai's back, and there was still a trace of resentment.

Shi Liai is indeed a little talented. Based on the analysis of the current situation of Liang Shan's regime, he guessed Song Qing's idea.

But eight and nine are not ten after all, so it is impossible for him to fully know Song Qing's thoughts.

Because the Jin soldiers have just been withdrawn from Hebei and have to eliminate scattered armed forces, the garrison of various prefectures in Hebei has always been the largest. However, as the situation in Hebei gradually calms down, many prefectures no longer need to station so many troops.

The army's defense that Shi Li Ai saw actually went south, and there was another that was secretly enriched to various towns at the border.

And as Gao Qing said, Song Qing will not easily send troops into the Golden State. But if the golden people have been strangled between you and me, that's another matter.

To this end, Song Qing had first sent Zhu Wu to Zhending to assist Lin Chong. Once the civil war in the State of Jin was fully launched, he immediately entered the army to recover the sixteen states of Yanyun. Then take the 16 states of Yanyun as the boundary and rely on the ancient Great Wall to establish a new Liangjin defense line.

It is impossible to fully invade the State of Jin, because Liangshan doesn't have that strength. The war requires not only military affairs, but also a huge logistical supply. Liang Shan is not fully prepared, which is what Song Qing said to the generals earlier.

According to Song Qing's instructions, Lin Chong ordered Yue Fei, Han Shizhong and others to prepare to send troops to recover the country at any time.

Because sometimes the analysis of love was in front, and at the same time, secret agents from all over Hebei also reported to the State of Jin that Liangshan people went south, so Wu Qimai finally made up his mind to transfer a large number of people from the border to deal with the rebellion of Wanyan Zong's brothers.

He also had no choice, because he knew better than anyone that if the rebellion could not be resolved in the shortest time, Liangshan would not be the only one who invaded Dajin.

Through continuous mobilization, Wu Qimai arranged 400,000 troops around Zhongdu to deal with the 300,000 horses of the Wanyan Zonggan brothers. The largest civil war since the founding of Dajin is about to start in a blink of an eye.

Jin Guo is busy fighting in the nest, and Song Qing is not idle. As the weather gradually turns cold, the autumn harvest has come to an end.

This year's harvest in Hebei can only be said to be sloppy, because there is too much idle land. This can be said to be the sequelae of the retreat of the Jin people, but it is precisely because of the loss of a large number of people and the full support of Shandong and other places that Hebei has not caused hunger.

Eating enough is just the first step, and the next step is to vigorously improve their living standards. Song Qing's goal is not only to restore the land of Hebei, but also to be better than before.

Because the land in Jiangbei is under the control of Liangshan forces, the integration of various places has gradually accelerated, and cultural exchanges, business exchanges, etc. have returned to the past.

It is also with the support of these rich places in Jiangbei, which not only solves the food and clothing of the people in the post-war region, but also makes the local treasury under the Liangshan regime gradually enrich.

After the harvest, inventory and other situations were reported by various places, Song Qing and others breathed out, and the most difficult days finally passed.

Life is getting better, and it is inevitable that everyone's ideas will increase again. Some people think that Fang La should be solved first and completely complete the strategic encirclement of the Song Dynasty.

Song Qing has not been confused by these achievements and recovered the 16 states of Yanyun. This is an immediate strategic goal and will not change. Once these places are fully occupied, it is bound to ensure the lives of the people here, so all kinds of materials will also follow up in large quantities. In this case, is there still room for other things to do?

It's not the right time to suppress Fang La. The most important thing is the issue of national strength. Shu Road is difficult and dangerous. If you want to send troops to Shu, you must also have huge logistical support.

Compaign with entering Shu, the battle to recover Yanyun is obviously much smaller. The Central Plains has just regained its vitality. If such a large-scale battle is carried out again, it will be easy to make Song Qing's hard work in recent years be in the end.

However, Song Qing still took this suggestion from his subordinates very seriously. Now from Dengzhou, Shandong in the east, Linzhou in the west, Bazhou in the north, and the vast areas bordering the Yangtze River in the south are under the control of Liangshan. If Shuzhong is included in his pocket, he can completely surround the Zhao and Song court.

And once that day comes, the position of your dreams will not be far away.

After convincing everyone with his own ideas, Song Qing led people to rush to Zhending. It is reported that the man and horse of the Gan brothers of Wanyanzong have encountered Wu Qimai's army, and it is obvious that a full-scale war is just around the corner.

How can he miss the dream of recovering Yan Yun from the founding of Zhao Kuangyin for more than 100 years?

At this time, Liang Shan has secretly gathered 200,000 troops and arranged them on the front line of Mozhou. Only after Song Qing's order, he could march into the army.

At such a close distance, it is impossible for Wu Qimai not to know Liang Shan's east direction, but sometimes because of his preconceived opinions, he still feels that Liang Shan is just a bluff.

According to the predetermined strategy, Yue Fei led his troops to first recover Shuozhou, and then marched into Datong. Han Shizhong's soldiers left Bazhou, took Zhuozhou, Jizhou and Tanzhou directly, and then returned to Youzhou.

Lin Chong led the middle army to take Weizhou, Xinzhou and Wuzhou, and then surrounded Youzhou with Han Shizhong.

Among these 16 states, Datong is called Xijing by the Jin people, and Youzhou is called Nanjing, so there are still heavy troops stationed in these two places, because Liangshan has to respond with heavy troops.

But at this moment, something that no one had expected suddenly happened.
