After a long conversation, Military Advisor Wu Yong's face, which had been dull for a long time, glowed with a look of hope!
As the former military advisor of the Liangshan Heroes, Wu Yong, a frustrated scholar, really had the idea of proving his abilities by any means necessary and then relying on Zhao'an in exchange for a prestigious official position.
But what Gongsun Sheng said before leaving was like a bolt from the blue that shattered the scholar's mind!
Brotherly love cannot be circumvented by personal interests, and pleasure in the world is no match for the strict rules of the court... Wu Yong is disappointed but not despairing. He wants to see what is different about Song Wen's Qingshan Camp! Why do these refugees and beggars come from rural areas where most of them are from?
The soldiers look so different!
They don't have the arrogance and gangsterism of the arrogant generals, nor the lifelessness, greed and wretchedness of the Xiang Army Forbidden Army, and their master Song Wen actually gives them a monthly salary that exceeds that of the Song Dynasty Forbidden Army... It can be said that they serve the Qingshan Camp for money.
, but they were all loyal to Song Wen and had strict military discipline and never bullied the people!
Song Wen kept saying that he would never rebel...but why did such an army that was incompatible with the imperial court exist?
Song Wen spread a piece of thick paper on the table, pointed to the topographic map of Mizhou and said: "The main camp of the Mizhou Xiang Army is two miles north of the city. There is also a small camp under the north wall of the city! But in recent years, Mizhou soldiers and horses
Due to the vacancy, the camp in the north of the city was actually abandoned... The shortage of soldiers was serious, and most of the remaining weak veterans were sent to guard the seven guards. The remaining people were raised in the small camp in the north of the city by two Yu Hou... Now
Most of them followed the two Yu Hous to Santang County to suppress the bandits!"
Wu Yong looked at Song Wen, raised his hands and asked, "Mr. Song summoned us from Dengzhou. Could it be that..."
Song Wen smiled: "That's right, there are more than a hundred brothers left in the Liangshan heroes! I plan to make Wu Junshi the marching chief, and Brother Luda the marching commander! The Wu brothers will take the positions of two Yuhou... and take the whole
The Mizhou garrison troops have been taken over! The rest will be selected from among the heroic brothers in Liangshan and have astute minds to be divided into teams to guard the seven coastal garrison posts..."
Now, even Ruda was shocked!
Even if Song Wen and Gao Qiu had many contacts, it was by no means an easy task for a white man in his early twenties to become a military commander in a state. Song Wen so easily took over the majority of the Mizhou Xiang army's troops.
To leave it to these Liangshan brothers... How much trust is this?
The two Wu brothers were okay. Ever since Song Wen asked the Wu brothers to take people to Bianliang to make a big fuss and pick up Xiao Fuzi to rescue Master Li, Wu Rong and Wu Song regarded themselves as Song Wen's confidants... The most surprising ones were Wu Yong and Lu Da.
!
Wu Yong and others bowed and saluted, and Lu Da said, "Song Qianjia, why do you trust us brothers so much?"
Song Wen smiled: "From now on, we are not you and other brothers...but I and all the brothers! No matter how ruthless the court is, I will not raise a flag to rebel for my own selfish interests...but this does not prevent me, Song Wenhui
I will do my best to protect my brothers and sisters and protect the common people who can be taken care of under my rule! To be honest, most of my brothers and soldiers have sneaked into the grassland... The various grassland tribes are now fighting against each other endlessly due to the decline of the Liao Kingdom. The number of Jurchens' pro-military forces
Not enough, I can’t take care of the eastern part of the grassland for a while... Once the imperial court sends the boy to the north, I am sure that half of the Song Dynasty will be completely destroyed!"
Wu Yong's face turned pale... "Mr. Song, the Song Dynasty has 500,000 troops to prepare for the Northern Expedition! No matter how bad things go... no matter how bad things go, you still have the ability to protect yourself, right?"
Song Wen snorted: "The weak Khitan people alone can't defeat the Song Dynasty, let alone the Jurchen Tatars who have already defeated the Khitan people and destroyed their country? If the defeated Khitan people, Bohai people, Tiele people, Mongolians don't
Will seek refuge with the Jurchens... these Tatars may not be able to conquer the Song Dynasty!"
Wu Yong suddenly realized... "Oh my god! It happened that the Song Dynasty gave the Liao people the most fatal blow from behind... The Jurchens and the Khitan people were in a tribal war and an upright struggle for hegemony in the north! But the Song Dynasty violated the
The Alliance of Tan Yuan betrayed their allies behind their backs and attacked and stole the land of the Liao people... In this case, the defeated Khitan people would turn to the Jurchens without hesitation! As for the Tiele people, the Semu people and those miscreants...
They will only follow the strong!"
Lu Da nodded with an ugly face: "So this is why Song Qianhe always believed that the imperial court would be in danger... It's a pity, it's a pity that all the princes in the imperial court are not as far-sighted as the young Song Qianxia...
"
Song Wen sighed... "Recapture Yanyun! The temptation is too great... The Song Dynasty also suffered too many losses at the hands of the Khitans! Since Emperor Taizu of the Song Dynasty, there has been a sealing pile library...
All the emperors of the Song Dynasty dreamed of regaining the Sixteen States of Youyun so that the Song Dynasty would have a solid line of defense that could be passed down to generations! The emperor who could do this would be the eternal sage, and the civil servants who could do this would be the famous ministers who could ride on horseback.
The military generals in Yanjing City are famous generals through the ages... This temptation has blinded everyone! Because none of them have seen it with their own eyes... What do the Jurchens look like? How powerful are they in combat!"
Ruda nodded and asked softly: "I dare to ask Song Langjun, what are the chances of winning if the Liangshan soldiers and Qingshan camp soldiers... face the real Jurchen army?"
Song Wen gave a bitter smile: "If we are fully prepared and equipped with complete equipment...we also fight in the wild battle formation, our Qingshan Battalion is three times as strong as the Jurchen army, and we may be able to resist it! If it is the Liangshan brothers...with all due respect, I am afraid that it is five times as strong as the Jurchen soldiers."
The enemy has no chance of winning!"
"Why did Mr. Song come to such a conclusion?"
Song Wendao: "I once went to the Liao Kingdom to see with my own eyes the elite fighting power of the Khitan Nanyuan Palace. Their elites, which are twice as strong as the Jurchens, are not the opponents of the Jurchens. Brother Ruda can do some calculations... If it is the elite of the Great Song Dynasty...
What about the combat effectiveness of the Bianliang Forbidden Army and the Hebei Frontier Army?"
Ruda lowered his head... "I'm afraid that the Song Dynasty Forbidden Army, which is ten times more powerful than the enemy, will only be defeated in one battle..."
Song Wen nodded: "Let me make an estimate... The Song Dynasty went north to defeat the Liao people and the defeated generals were in a stalemate. Tong Guan was eager to make a contribution... Will he follow the general's advice and fight slowly? Will he attack Nanjing City of the Liao Dynasty directly with the intention of establishing a stronghold that can seal the city?
The king’s unparalleled achievements?”
Wu Yong frowned... "Yes..."
"The desperate Liao army will be struggling to their death. Will the final blow be given to the Jurchens or the treacherous Song people?"
A trace of pain flashed across Wu Yong's eyes... "If it were me, I would definitely attack Song Jun with a desperate blow..."
Song Wen touched the map on the table and traced his finger across the northern part of the Central Plains... "In the end, the imperial imperial army was defeated... The Jurchens took advantage of the situation to see clearly the reality of the Song army, and the Jurchens would never give the Khitans a break.
Given the opportunity, they will capture all the cities of the Liao Kingdom with thunderous force...and then take over the remnants of the Khitan people and the servant armies of various ethnic groups!"
Song Wen patted the position of Bianliang in the Great Song Dynasty... "Tong Guan didn't dare, and the emperor didn't dare to admit defeat! They would sign a more humiliating covenant than the Tanyuan Alliance to try to take back the Sixteenth State of Yanyun... and since then
From now on, the Jurchens will completely see the true strength of the Song Dynasty! Then, the real disaster of the Song Dynasty will begin..."
There was a soft knock on the door, and a person walked out.
Wu Yong was still thinking hard, seeming to be thinking about why Song Wen concluded that the Jurchens would attack the Song Dynasty just after they destroyed the Liao Kingdom...
Song Wen raised his head, looked at the emaciated visitor and asked softly: "Taoist Master Yunlong... why do you think the Jurchens immediately prepared to go south to attack the Song Dynasty after destroying the Liao Kingdom?"
Everyone was startled and turned around to see... Taoist Master Ruyunlong Gongsun Sheng had entered the room at some point and was quietly looking at the topographic map on the table.
Gongsun Sheng bowed his hands and saluted everyone, and then said in a slightly hoarse voice: "Today we know that the Song Dynasty Lang Junzhu can see thousands of miles... The number of Jurchens is insufficient, so it stands to reason that they are unable to conquer the Song Dynasty! But the Jurchens brought hundreds of thousands
Servant army...those northern Han people, Tiele people, Mongols, Bohai people...their numbers are too great, so many that the Jurchens cannot completely control them in a short period of time! The Jurchens need war...to expand their results.
Reward the clansmen to consume these servants who were originally under the command of the Liao Kingdom! They need time...time to continue fighting to consolidate their invincible power in the world!"
Song Wen nodded and said: "The Taoist priest is extremely sharp and can see through the true trend of the war in the North at a glance! What the Song Dynasty should do most is not to add insult to injury... but to provide help in times of need and fully support the Liao Kingdom and the Jurchens in repeated battles to consume each other.
! Then secretly instigate and win over the Tiele people, the Bohai people, the Mongolians, and the Semu people. Repeated betrayals between the Khitans and Jurchens consume the patience and trust of all of them... Only in this way can there be a chance to slowly regain Yanyun with national strength and military strength.
Divide and dismantle the alien races in the North!"
