In just a few months, Guo Yaoshi controlled an army of 50,000 people in Youzhou by recruiting the old tribes of various ethnic groups and absorbing the army of Hebei, and the food, equipment, and armor were supplied by the imperial court, and Guo Yaoshi trained the township warriors in various states and counties, and the number of people has exceeded 100,000.

The three-year rent exemption agreed by the imperial court gave Guo Yaoshi's actions room to accumulate money, but Yang Zhi really didn't expect that even a century-old family like the Han family would feel unbearable; Han Zhu looked at Yang Zhi's expression and knew that Yang Zhi hadn't fully believed it, so he smiled bitterly: "Don't believe it, don't forget, the Khitan and other clans are all Han people in the townships and horses in Youzhou and other places, and if the Xi people, Khitan people, and Jurchen people are included, Guo Yaoshi's men and horses should exceed 200,000." ”

Yang Zhi was not surprised, in another time and space, Guo Yaoshi did have more than 300,000 horses, and history has not changed in the general trend; Yang Zhi suddenly thought in an instant that if he changed the general trend one day, then there would really be no room for reference, and it would be an unpredictable ending. Yang Zhi came to his senses, saw Han Zhu looking at him, and said with a smile: "Maybe it's for Xi Guo and Jin Guo, Guo Yaoshi is too nervous. ”

Xi was canonized by the Great Song Dynasty, but how could Xiao Gan be willing to be trapped in a corner of Xinzhou, so while fighting for the homeland of the Liao State, he also harassed the Jin State and the Great Song Dynasty from time to time; as for the Jin State, Yang Zhi heard a rumor that before Tong Guan returned to the Dynasty, he had a special conversation with Li Gang and Guo Yaoshi, implying that he was targeted. It's just that the status of the person who spread the word is too low, and he can't figure out whether Tong Guan's target is prevention or crusade.

Han Zhu wanted to speak and stopped, Yang Zhi smiled and said, "What do you want to say, just say it, what else should we consider in our relationship?"

Han Zhu said a little embarrassed: "I want to ask Lord Yang about your plans, but I'm afraid of being abrupt." ”

Yang Zhi smiled: "I have never been bothered by this question, let alone thought deeply. If it is peaceful, either govern one side or be a rich man, as long as the war resumes, it depends on whether the court uses me. ”

Han Zhu sighed: "You and I are really different, my ancestral home is Youzhou, I am an authentic Han Chinese, I don't like the Khitan and Jurchen Hu people's arrogant posture towards me, but it is impossible to leave, so for me, I must do something for Youzhou." ”

Yang Zhi was silent for a moment and said: "I also hope that Youzhou will be peaceful, but Fourth Master, you and I are both small people, once we want to embark on the road of doing big things, we almost can't cope with it." ”

Han Zhu's eyes lit up, and he said excitedly: "Lord Yang is too modest, the Canglang Battalion swept Yanyun, and he didn't taste a defeat, I'm afraid that even if he is against Jin Bing, it won't be bad." ”

The people of the Han family still have vision, and today Han Zhu opened such a mouth, that is, he knew that the first battle between Song and Jin would break out sooner or later, and hoped that Yang Zhi would make a judgment; Yang Zhi looked at Han Zhu with burning eyes and said: "It turns out that the fourth master has such a strong ambition, but you must know that fighting a war does not only rely on the army, and whether I can participate in the war at that time is two words." ”

Han Zhu knew Yang Zhi's situation, and said abruptly: "Lord Yang smiled, in my opinion, Lord Yang will definitely be used." ”

Yang Zhi looked at the screen behind Han Zhu, showed a bitter smile, shook his head and said, "People have dreams, and no one can say whether they can come true." ”

Han Zhu nodded affirmatively and said, "Of course, but now Guo Yaoshi connived at his subordinates to go out to plunder and accumulate wealth, ignoring the abandonment of the Yellow River to the east of Pingzhou, and has no determination to resist the Jin State at all." ”

Yang Zhi suddenly thought of where the problem might be, the key is still in Pingzhou and Zhang Jue, now that Pingzhou is in the hands of the Great Song Dynasty, if Zhang Jue directly kills Gao Qigong and others, Jin Guo can directly start a war without any reason; Yang Zhi diverted from the original topic and said: "Brother Han is actually hiding injustice in his heart, it seems that I, Yang Zhi, have not made the wrong friends, by the way, did Gao Qigong and Cao Yongyi and others leave Youzhou?"

Han Zhu said with hatred: "No, they are still lobbying the scholars and civilians to go east to the Bohai Sea, even our Han family is now being provoked by Gao Qigong and Zhang Lin into a mess." ”

Yang Zhi said indifferently: "They want to pay homage to the Marquis of Jin Kingdom, so they naturally have to do a little more effort." ”

Han Zhu sneered and said, "The Jin people are preparing for the sacrificial ceremony in Wanda Mountain, who cares about them." ”

Wanda Mountain, the place of origin of the Jurchens, today, hundreds of nobles of the Jin Kingdom gathered at the foot of the mountain, preparing for the sacrificial ceremony at the peak of the gods, but the large group of people and horses had not yet reached the top of the mountain, not far from the mountainside, turned into a cave;

Wanyan Da, who is responsible for the construction of this Yongdao, is at the forefront, he is the first master of the Wanyan clan, and Li Shining's descendant disciple. He knew that Yang Zhi had sent back the relics of the city's style, and he also knew that Jin Guo had searched for seven places to find here, but Jin Wushu always felt that his heart was beating very hard today.

Jin Wushu silently counted the people who appeared today, and suddenly understood that all the magnates who were in favor of living in harmony with the Great Song Dynasty were there, but Wu Qimai and Wanyan Zonghan and others in the main battle were not there, and only half of the magnates in the main battle came. In the usual sacrificial ceremonies, Wu Qimai and Wanyan Zonghan have never been absent, thinking that Wanyan Da is friendship with Wu Qimai, Jin Wushu was half cold.

Jin Wushu quickened his pace in an imperceptible way, squeezed to Wan Yan Aguda's side, touched his father, and made a small gesture of fear. This small action is the action that Jin Wushu was afraid of when he followed Wanyan Agu when he was a child, and Wanyan Aguda didn't react when he saw it, but Wanyan Zongwang on the other side was shocked and sweated.

Wanyan Zongwang not only knew this action, but also knew that his fourth brother was cunning, otherwise he would not have thought of going undercover in Liao State at a young age. The Golden Vulture made this kind of suggestion in the sacrificial ceremony, by no means respecting the ancestors, but implying that there was danger ahead. Wanyan Zongwang knew that only his own people could create danger in front of his own people, Wanyan Zongwang held his breath steadily, and made up his mind that once something happened, he must ensure that his father was thorough.

The road is very long, and you can clearly see that the stone walls of the road are piled up with stones from different periods, and the old stones not only have moss on them, but also have black traces. When I walked to the end of the road, I saw a hall full of golden light, and the tables and chairs were placed according to the style and order in the palace, but to everyone's surprise, there was a brocade pier in front of the dragon chair, on which sat an old man with long eyebrows and white hair.
