"Second brother, the Southern Army has indeed deployed heavy troops in the Sanshan Floating Bridge area, and the number is likely to be as many as 300,000 to 400,000!"

"What? There are 300,000 to 400,000? Guo Yaoshi, didn't you say that the three imperial guards of the Southern Army are all missing, and most of the so-called 800,000 imperial guards are imaginary numbers?"

A military convention was also being held in Tangyin City at this time.

Those who participated in this military discussion included Wanyan Jiemu, Wanyan Zongwang, Wanyan Talan, Yelu Mawu, Liu Yanzong and others who followed the main brothers of the Jindong Road Army, as well as Wanyan Wushu and Guo Yaoshi who had just arrived from the Liyang front line.

After hearing Wanyan Wushu talk about the number of Song troops in the Sanshan Fuqiao area, Wanyan Zongwang immediately questioned Guo Yaoshi.

When he surrendered to the Great Jin Kingdom, he could explain that the Song army's 800,000 imperial guards were very clear, with little real numbers, and Kaifeng Prefecture was particularly empty. The so-called three yamen imperial guards had a maximum of 30,000 to 50,000, and they were vulnerable, and they were simply famous.

"Second Prince" Guo Yaoshi tried hard to pretend to be sad and haggard, of course, he was not fully equipped, he was indeed very sad.

If I had known that Zhao Kai could be an official, and that his daughter and Zhao Kai could see each other, he would not have been cast into the Golden Thieves. Even if he led the crowd to escape, he is now a royal relative, so why are he still afraid of not having glory and wealth?

"Second Prince," Guo Yaoshi wiped his tears, "The 800,000 imperial guards of the southerners are indeed very weak. Most of the southern soldiers gathered on both sides of the Yellow River should be newly recruited. However, their 50,000,300,000,300,000,300,000,300,000,300,000,300,000,300,000,300,000,300,000,300,000,300,000,300,000,300,000,300,000,300,000,300,000,300,000,300,000,300,000,300,000,300,000,300,000,300,000,30

Yaoshi Guo’s analysis is still reasonable.

"Gao Qiu..." Wanyan Zongwang gritted his teeth, "What should I do now?"

"Second brother," said Wanyan Wushu, "Now Gao Qiu's elite soldiers are all in the area of ​​Sanshan Floating Bridge, Kaifeng Prefecture will inevitably be empty... Although Zhao Kai still ordered the heroes of the world to serve the king, how much strength can the mobs urging to gather? If we can cross the Yellow River east and then attack Kaifeng Prefecture with elite troops, maybe we can capture Zhao Kai in one battle!"

Pharmacist Guo added: "Even if you can't catch Zhao Kai, you can still get a lot of gold, silver and wealth!"

Wanyan Zongwang asked: "Where is Gao Qiu here in Sanshan Floating Bridge?"

Wanyan Wushu glanced at Yaoshi Guo.

Guo Yaoshi immediately said: "The Second Prince, the official is willing to lead the troops in his headquarters to stay in Liyang... If Gao Qiu dares to send troops to attack, the official will definitely ask him to come and go, so as to avenge his daughter!"

Wanyan Zongwang looked at Guo Yaoshi for a while and said, "It's good... But it makes Lang Anguo quite smart, and his planners still have to keep him by his side to do things."

Guo Anguo is a hostage, so of course he cannot be handed over to pharmacist Guo.

However, Wanyan Zongwang did not suspect that Guo Yaoshi had secretly communicated with the Song Dynasty. Even if he wanted to be a slave of the four surnames, someone would have to ask him for it!

Wanyan Wushu said: "Second brother, if we want to detour, we will probably have to hurry up for a while... If we delay any further, those mobs will be fine, but we are afraid that Kaifeng Prefecture will be built more and more solid."

"We will go east tomorrow!" Wanyan Zongwang smiled, "I can't make a mistake... So what if the southerners built Kaifeng Prefecture as solid? As long as we have the city outside Kaifeng Prefecture, we can slowly waste it with them, and we are not afraid that they will not cede land and pay the money!"

The horse's hooves stepped across the official road, and the first one rode a horse and trotted along the road at the junction of the three states of Jingdong Road, Pu, Yun and Ji. Then dozens of knights followed. The figure on the horse who came first, with a black hat and purple dress, a long road hanging on the waist, a arched arrow on the shoulders and a handsome and mighty man. It was Zhao Kai, an official from the Song Dynasty.

There are large areas of farmland on both sides of the road, endlessly, with some villages and farms dotted in it. Now it is almost time to eat, and there are no exceptions of the smoke from the farmhouses in the distance.

A cavalry was walking on the road leading from the Sanshan Floating Bridge to the Shuiboliangshan Mountain.

Although Zhao Kai kept saying that "Gaoqi went to Liangshan", "really Gaoqi" has followed Zhao Ji and Zhao Huan to Xuzhou now, and will continue to flee south to the Huaihe River. Of course, it is impossible to run to Liangshan to fight against the Jin Dynasty. And even if he is willing to come back to participate in the anti-Jin struggle, Zhao Kai would not give him the key location of the water-pooling Liangshan, which is related to the victory and defeat of Kaifeng defense.

So now Zhao Kai is the one who really goes to Liangshan. It’s just that Zhao Kai is not convenient to wander around in his own name, and it is even more impossible to stay in Liangshanpo for a long time. But he also had to go to Liangshanpo. Because through the military proposal on the sixth day of the first lunar month, Zhao Kai has discovered that the important position of the water-pool Liangshan in his great anti-Jin cause is no less than that of the Sanshan floating bridge!

If we say that the series of dangerous things such as Sanshan Floating Bridge, Dali Mountain, Tiancheng Fort, Wenzi Mountain and Baima City can firmly hold the throat of the Jin soldiers who crossed the south of the Yellow River, so that they can't exert much energy under the Kaifeng Prefecture City. Then, stationing troops in Liangshanpo can hold the tail of the Jin soldiers who bypass the northern section of the Yellow River, walk away from the Defu, Puzhou, and Xingren Mansion into the Kaifeng Prefecture. And they can use knives to poke the backs of the Jin people!

The Sanshan floating bridge to the north of Kaifeng Prefecture, Liangshanpo to the east, and the mountainous areas in Xingyang Guangwu Mountain to the west, are combined to protect the three major obstacles to Kaifeng Prefecture.

As long as these three majors are in hand, even if the Jin thieves can attack the city of Kaifeng, it will be difficult for a long time to surround the city. At most, they will seek a quick battle.

But the strength of Kaifeng Prefecture is not something that the Jin army can quickly take?

It’s a pity that in the original history, the defenders of Kaifeng Prefecture were He Guan and Liang Fangping who were defeated by Sanshan Floating Bridge, and he was no longer able to effectively defend the outside of Kaifeng Prefecture. In the end, he could only resist with an isolated city.

However, Zhao Kai has now successfully "selled" Kaifeng Prefecture, so he naturally has to set up a stop outside Kaifeng Prefecture before he can go back.

Of course, it was impossible for him to follow the army of Sanshan Floating Bridge to go to Liangshan. Sanshan Floating Bridge must not be defended! So Zhao Kai left behind He Guan, two veteran generals, Wang Yuan, commanded more than 13,000 troops and stayed at Sanshan Floating Bridge. He Guan also served as the commander of the northeastern Tokyo in the name of the commander of the camp, and was also the commander of the affairs of Junzhou. Wang Yuan was also the deputy commander of the camp, and was also the commander of the affairs of Huazhou.

Zhao Kaize, Han Shizhong and He Li (also temporarily added a camp envoy) led more than 10,000 cavalry together. In the morning of the eighth day of the first lunar month, he quietly left the Wenzishan Camp southeast of Sanshan Fuqiao, and then headed eastward to Yuncheng County.

It took only more than 200 miles from Wenzishan Camp to Yuncheng County. Zhao Kai led light and fierce cavalry, and the official road passed by was in good condition. After walking for only three days, the low walls of Yuncheng County were already far away.

When the team approached Yuncheng County, Zhao Kai found a mound located on the edge of the official road, so he rode his horse up and climbed up to look into the distance.

Yuncheng County is an ordinary small county town of the Song Dynasty. Although it is close to the east bank of Liangshanpo, it is still a little far from the Guangji River (Wuzhang River), so it is not considered a transportation hub. Of course, it is not considered a prosperous city. The population is at most two or three thousand households.

"Your Majesty, this Liangshanpo area has never been very peaceful." He Li, who had advised Zhao Kai to return to Beijing as soon as possible, has followed Zhao Kai and become a "guide".

He still knows Yanzhou now, and Yanzhou is next door to Jeju (Yuncheng belongs to Jeju), so he is also half a host.

"It's Liangshan good, right? Is it the Liangshan bandits making trouble?" Zhao Kai asked.

"Liangshanbo is located in a water and land hub, and the terrain is very complex. Liangshanbo is a wetland lake with a radius of hundreds of miles. Liangshan is a mountain in the water, and has always been a place where bandits and river bandits occupy it!"

"Good minister, what do you think?" Zhao Kai turned around and asked Han Shizhong.

Han Shizhong also followed Zhao Kai. After He Guan and Wang Yuan stayed at the Sanshan Floating Bridge, Han Shizhong became the number one general under Zhao Kai!

Han Shizhong said: "Your Majesty, I think I can recruit land and land heroes in the Liangshan area... With their assistance, we can form a naval army as soon as possible. With the naval army, we can only allow these hundreds of miles of water to surround me!"

Zhao Kai nodded and said, "Good minister, I want to set up a camp in Liangshan to control the military and horse regiments in Puzhou, Yunzhou, Jizhou, Yanzhou and other places to practice Baojia affairs... Are you willing to serve as the general manager of the Liangshan camp, and to be the chief authority of the Dongping Prefecture (Yunzhou has been renamed Dongping Prefecture), and to lead thousands of elite troops to take charge of Liangshan?"

Although the camp under the personal expedition camp was a "temporary" yamen, the camp general manager could borrow Zhao Kai's imperial power and temporarily get rid of the constraints of military generals in the Song Dynasty's officialdom. After all, the camp general manager represented the imperial power, and in name only took care of things when the emperor was not in the camp.

Han Shizhong knew that Liangshan was important, so of course he would not refuse. He clasped his fists on the horse's back and said, "Don't worry, if you spit it, Han Wu will definitely be optimistic about the Liangshan camp for the official!"

"Just looking forward is not enough!" Zhao Kai shook his head, "I have to attack! I don't expect you to fight head-on with the main force of the Jin thief, but you have to keep stabbing the Jin thief in the back with a knife, and kill and injure some Ali Xibing who hit Caogu as much as possible... In short, you can't let the Jin thief be peaceful!"

As he spoke, Zhao Kai turned his head and said to He Li: "He Qing, thank you for your hard work, go and call the prefects, magistrates, soldiers and commanders of Puzhou, Yunzhou, Jizhou, Yanzhou and other places to Liangshan... I want to tell them personally that they will be controlled by the Liangshan camp in the future!

He Qing, when this matter is done, you go to Yingtian Prefecture and take over as the Minister Xuan Shuai of Jingdong and the two routes of Jingdong... Remember, the troops of Liangshan camp are not under the jurisdiction of Jingdong Xuan Shuai, and Jingdong Xuan Shuai's main responsibility is to protect Yingtian, Xuzhou, Jinan, Qingzhou and other places without losing!”

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will do my best to defend the country!"

Zhao Kai nodded and waved his hand to Yuncheng not far away, "Let's go, let's go into Yuncheng first, and then go to Liangshan... I will also take the banner of Gao Qiu on Liangshan!"

Gao Qiu is already a little famous now, just for a hatred. He is already terminally ill, so he will not be afraid of "killing can be said to be harmonious"?
