Song Huizong one is to ensure that Cai Suitian can't die, this is an important way to contact the third Zhao Kai, even if he is now in Runzhou, it is also of great use;

He Su, on behalf of Song Huizong, attended the dinner in Gutongyuan, and Du Wanche and others touched the bottom of Taiyuan together, and learned that Yang Zhi captured Hetao and Yinzhou and other places, and that Yanyan Road and Fuqi Road had been attached to the Dingbei Army.

"At the end of the Battle of Jiezhou, the Dingbei Army defeated Yan Gao, killed more than 20,000 cavalry of the Jin army, and captured more than 17,000 people. He told the latest battle report, slowly ate a piece of sea cucumber, and pretended to ask Cai Suitian casually: "What does King Yun think?"

It turned out that Xie Zhou had already won or lost, Cai Suitian was happy, and said without thinking: "King Yun just hopes that Emperor Taishang will be restored to the throne and stabilize the decisive battle of the army and people of the Great Song Dynasty. ”

He Xu understood Cai Suitian's hidden words, that is, except for Song Huizong Zhao Ji who came out to be the emperor again, anyone left to sit on the dragon chair, Zhao Kai and the Dingbei Army would not buy it, Sheng Yuyi saluted Cai Suitian with a glass of wine and said: "If there is no grain in the south of the Yangtze River, even if you sit in Guanzhong, it will be difficult." ”

At the beginning of the founding of the Great Song Dynasty, he once debated whether to establish the capital of Chang'an, but in the end, he gave up this idea because of the difficulty of grain transshipment. Cai Suitian knew that Sheng Yuyi was testing his bottom line, and said with a smile: "The reason why Yang Zhi attacked Hetao was to grab the grain in the land of the Eight Pavilions, not only to solve the grain in Shuozhou, but also to let 100,000 foreign races belong in one fell swoop. Besides, Guanzhong is currently in the hands of the Jin Army, as long as it can be recovered, it will be hard to do it. ”

Tie Bangyi asked curiously: "Then why don't you incorporate the Hebei Righteous Army, I heard that there are millions of righteous troops there?"

Cai Suitian smiled and said: "The Tao is not the same, Ma Kuo and the others are thinking of going to Bianliang for a while to ask for an official, and if they can't win, they will flee to the south." We are different, King Yun's ambition is to recover Yanyun, no matter how difficult it is, he will continue to fight, when Yang Zhi recovered Yinzhou, King Yun and Zong Ze were drunk in the Marshal's Mansion, and King Yun said that he would sweep the Hetao with Yang Zhi, even if he failed in the end, he had no regrets. ”

A room full of people had nothing to say, even the waiting officials were full of emotion, Hedong began to fight with the Jin people since Yan Yun was lost, and now he is full of injuries, but he is still fighting; after a long time, Shen Chong relieved the atmosphere and said: "Now that the Jin army is sweeping Guanzhong, is King Yun ready to recover Guanzhong?" ”

"No, it won't. Cai Suitian said with certainty: "Our goal is Jiezhou, Guanzhong region, the Jin people can't be defeated in us, the Jin people are gone, the locals probably still want to belong to Bianliang, and the Dingbei Army should not be able to fight, at most take half of the area." ”

Half of Guanzhong, that's a lot, Shen Chong is familiar with the geography of the Great Song Dynasty, and asked Cai Suitian: "How did you set up the state capital now?"

Cai Suitian replied: "When Liang Xun pacified the envoy in Hebei, he built Zhongshan Mansion in Zhaozhou and Xingzhou, and built Zhending Mansion in Xiangzhou and Cizhou. Guanzhong is at most in this form, Wang Yu is Shaanxi's pacification envoy, and there will not be much action. ”

He Su nodded, indicating that Cai Suitian's words were true, and that a lot of news from the Dingbei Army was blocked, Shen Chong was taken aback, and after a little thought, he understood: "You all occupy the state capitals around Taihang Mountain and Hedong, in order to establish a buffer zone, no matter who is nearby, there is room for negotiation." ”

Cai Suitian gave a thumbs up and said: "Lord Shen Gao sees that according to Yang Zhi's opinion, no matter how fierce the government fights, there is no way to stop businessmen and refugees from running around, and there may be a short-term truce, so negotiations are needed at the right time." ”

The two did not say it explicitly, but in fact, Cai Suitian admitted that a large part of it was to prevent accidents on the side of Bianliang; He Su skillfully diverted the topic, talking about the prices in various places and so on. After the banquet was dismissed, Cai went to rest by himself, and He asked Shen Chong: "You seem to be a little worried, what's wrong?"

Du Wanche and Sheng Yuyi also stared at Shen Chong for some reason, Shen Chong groaned: "Except for Wang Yan is the focus in Weizhou, Liang Xun's southward movement is likely to be a scam, they have grabbed the southern line of the Jin army, no matter whether the Jin army withdraws from Guanzhong or Bianliang, they will not meet them." Even if there is a Jin army in the Xiangyang generation, the number will not be large, and the biggest advantage in Yingchang Mansion is that once the Jin army retreats north, Wang Xiang is busy recovering Luoyang, and King Kang is busy recovering Bianliang, Liang Xun can take the opportunity to occupy Zhengzhou and lay a wedge in the east and west of Beijing; and then take Mengzhou, Weizhou, and Huaizhou in the north and connect with Hedong. ”

Zhengzhou has jurisdiction over the five counties of Guancheng, Xinzheng, Xingyang, Xingze, and Yuanwu, and is the Xifu County of Kaifeng, and if it falls into the hands of the Dingbei Army and cut off the connection between Luoyang and Kaifeng, it is really enough to see; He Xu pondered for a while and asked: "Will Liang Xun cut off the east-west traffic from Yingchang Mansion and Zhengzhou all the way?"

"No, it won't. Shen Chong had already figured out the intentions of the Dingbei Army, and couldn't help but be shocked by the other party's layout: "Yun Wang Zhi is in Guanzhong, his hand is stretched too long and looks vigorous, but in fact, he suffers from it; If Tongguan and the outside are in the hands of the Dingbei Army, it will be a force to overwhelm Bianliang, so Zhengzhou can only be left to them. ”

That is, to see who Bianliang ended up in the hands of, He Su and Du Wanche went back with confidence, Song Huizong listened to He Su and Du Wanche's report, he did not feel surprised, and even a little happy, he was unspeakably angry that Song Qinzong sent someone to pass the decree to Zhao Gou, the king of Lao Jiukang, to succeed to the throne, he is still there, you dare to give it to each other privately? It's just that you can't get angry in front of people, and Song Huizong still has to make a posture of adults watching children mess around.

Song Huizong looked at the map spread on the table and asked, "So, can you give Shaanxi Wulu to the third child?"
