Youzhou, a piece of green, spring flowers and peach blossoms are blooming on the branches, in the side hall of the palace, a small range of drinking parties are going on, Wan Yan Gao said his judgment to Wu Qimai and Wan Yan Zonggan: "Bianliang must not get the material supply from the south of the Yangtze River, no matter how capable Yang Zhi is, he is just holding a place, and there is no possibility of entering Hebei, the top priority is to stabilize Hebei and Shandong, as long as these two places can recruit troops, they can fight with the south for a long time." Chuzhou is a bridgehead that must be conquered, and it can threaten Bianliang and Runzhou at any time to force the Great Song Dynasty to sue for peace. ”

In Wu Qimai's heart, the order of capable ministers in the court is Wanyan Gao, Wanyan Zonggan, Wanyan Zonghan, and Wanyan Zongwang, even if Wanyan Zongfu broke through Bianliang, but it did not affect this ranking at all; now Wanyan Gao is recuperating from his injuries, Wanyan Zonggan is responsible for managing the government, Wanyan Zonghan is still in the prison of the Dingbei Army, after Yang Zhi leaves, Wanyan Zonghan and Yinshuke have been transferred to Taiyuan by Zhao Kai. No matter how you look at it, it's time for Yan Zongwang to come out to fight.

Wanyan Zonggan said worriedly: "Will it be locked up in the mountains for more than a year, Zong Wang's ability has regressed, this time he fought with Han Shizhong and Zong Ying in the clouds for so long and didn't get a bargain, and Wushu finally won the four cities including Jinsu Prefecture." ”

Wan Yan Gao was afraid that Wan Yan Zonggan would continue, Wu Qimai did not think that Wan Yan Zongwang was a problem of ability, but deliberately released water, and hurriedly interrupted: "Zong Wang is not familiar with the methods of the Dingbei Army to fight, and Han Shizhong is a famous general carefully cultivated by Yang Zhi, so it is nothing if he can't do it for a while; It can only be said that Yang Zhi has a unique vision, and he wants to fight with Zongfu in Weizhou, and the first battle of his debut is famous all over the world, so that a group of Tuntian troops and our kidnappers will be tied. ”

Wu Qimai nodded and said: "This is true, I can only say that the kid of Yunwang Zhao Kai is lucky." If Zhao Huan had trusted Yang Zhi so much at the beginning, my army would probably still be fighting on the front line of the Daimyo's Mansion now. It was decided, and the persimmon picked up the soft pinch, so he asked Zong Wang to go to Qingzhou and told him that I wanted the entire north of Xuzhou, like Hebei, to eradicate all those thorns for me. ”

At this moment, Zhao Gou, the king of Kang, had already arrived at Yingtianfu, and Geng Nanzhong was given a separate drive to Shanzhou by Song Huizong and placed in Nanxiong Prefecture; Zhang Wei, the secretary of the household department, was transferred to Yingtianfu Yin and Shandong pacification envoy to assist Zhao Gou, for which Song Huizong still agreed to allocate another 500,000 taels of money to Zhao Gou as military expenses. But Zhao Gou knew in his heart that all this was too far from his original power, and he had to reconsider the way out.

After consulting with his subordinates, Zhao Gou reported to Runzhou for permission and sent his envoy Du Shiliang to visit Song Qinzong in the name of Jinying Yihe, and by the way checked the situation under the rule of Jin; on the other hand, he asked Zhang Wei to speed up the arrangement of officials to the state capitals of Shandong, and now more than half of Shandong is in the hands of the Jin army, but Jinan and other places are still under the control of the Great Song Dynasty, and if they are used well, they can not only increase the source of troops, but also contain the Jin army from moving south.

Zhao Gou took Liu Hongdao and Zhang Cambodia as the chief and deputy pacification envoys of Jingdong Road, and the appointment of the remaining officials was handed over to Zhang Yu; Zhang Yu's friend Liu Yu Liu Yu was born in a farming family, and once stole a classmate's platinum bowl and gauze clothes, and after Liu Yu was admitted to the Jinshi, although Song Huizong issued an edict not to pursue it, he always looked down on Liu Yu; Zhang Yu has always been upset with Liu Yu, and this time he saw Liu Yu come to join King Kang and recommended Liu Yu as the prefect of Jinan.

The situation in Shandong is that everyone knows how dangerous it is, the Jin army will hit the city at any time, and the army guarding is even more pitiful, Liu Yu hopes to change to Chuzhou and other places, even if the official is a little smaller, it doesn't matter, but Zhao Gou doesn't do it, and it is a joke for a while. The news of Ying Tianfu soon spread to Bianliang, and Yang Zhi heard that it was Liu Yu who was sent, and his heart moved, this was a big man who established a pseudo-Qi, and he had mobilized an army of 700,000 to go south in another time and space, and he had suffered a lot to Zhao Gou and others.

Yang Zhi naturally can't talk about these things now, but out of public intentions, he immediately wrote a letter to Zhang Jun and Zhang Wei, and gave a note to Runzhou, euphemistically stating his opinion, thinking that officials such as Zhizhou who want to go to the rear of the Jin army should have experience in fighting, at least he himself is willing to go, and he can't force people to make it difficult.

This recital was refuted by Yingtianfu and Runzhou, and one by one they impassionedly refuted Yang Zhi; if everyone was afraid of difficulties, would the lost territory of the Central Plains be given up like this? The Guozijian of Jinling Mansion thought of Yang Zhi wanting Guozijian to leave Bianliang, and even thought that Yang Zhi did not believe in the scholars, and the crowd was surging for a while. For the sake of his own face, Zhao Gou urged Liu Yu to leave, and Liu Yu had no choice but to take office with a stomach full of anger.

Yang Zhi doesn't care, he expounds his own opinions, and it is another matter for Zhao Gouling not to accept his kindness. There is no fluctuation up and down Bianliang, they all know Yang Zhi's personality, and they refuse to hand over their backs to people they don't trust, Yang Zhi just entered Bianliang, Ma Zhong and others were hesitant to join the war, Yang Zhi directly let a few people leave, and promoted Li Qiong, Xu Wen and others. It can only be said that Liu Yu's life is not good, if it is under Yang Zhi, maybe depending on Liu Yu's ability, he will really give Liu Yu a position of general judgment or county order in Yingchang Mansion and other places.

The Jin army has been paying attention to the moves in the south, just when Du Shiliang arrived in Youzhou, the Jin army took Wanyan Zongwang as the right deputy marshal, marched into Ji, Zi, Qing and other places, Wanyan Zongwang and Chizhan Hui divided their troops to attack, and the pacification of Jingxi Road made Liu Hongdao directly abandon Weizhou and fled; Liu Yu, the prefect of Jinan, killed the general Guan Sheng, captured the deputy envoy Zhang Khan to pacify, and surrendered the city; then Zhang Cheng, the defender of Laizhou, and Li Cheng, the commander of Huainan, surrendered one after another, and Ma Kuan learned that the whole army of Wuma Mountain was destroyed, and led the army to withdraw to the Huaiyang army, and the whole territory of Shandong fell.

Ying Tianfu breathed a sigh in his chest, Yang Zhi's crow's mouth was really right as soon as he said it, these officials who were forcibly sent to Shandong really buried half of Shandong cleanly, and they didn't even leave a chance for Ying Tianfu to send troops to reinforce it. It's just that now the more serious problem is behind, will the Jin army go south?

Wanyan Zongwang, the chief general of the Jin army, immediately joined forces with the Jin army to besiege Xuzhou, and the defender of Xuzhou was Liu Guangshi, who had just driven away Li Yu, who had defected to the Jin; Liu Guangshi immediately sent people to Zhang Jun for help when he heard the news, and proposed to withdraw from Xuzhou, avoiding the truth and making up for nothing; Zhang Jun understood that Liu Guangshi was looking for an excuse for his escape, and did not agree to this method, and asked Liu Guangshi to defend to the death, and ordered him to go to Du Chong for rescue. Du Chongyao led Kaide Mansion, and the army was actually in the Wuning Army not far from Xuzhou, and it would be possible to arrive in one day if the troops were dispatched.
