The problem with the Kingdom of Jin is that there are too many unreliable people.
As long as the emperor in the court was reliable, he would not have regarded those close relatives and nobles as his eyes and ears, spying on the officials all day long. If not, Pusan Anzhen would not have sat in the position of commander of the armed guards.
Unable to stay, he turned to seeking to go out.
As long as the local officials on the east and west roads of Hebei were reliable, they would not have caused riots in dozens of military states across thousands of miles of fertile land. Until several months after the Mongolian troops retreated, normal social order could not be restored and food production could not be organized.
Even when Pusan Anzhen was in Jingzhou, the dispatching center for grain and supplies, he saw that the people were so hungry that they were eating each other and dying for each other. The reason why the more than 20,000 horses under his control had to go south to Shandong was
Because Hebei needs an army that can fight against the Mongols, but Hebei is so big that it can no longer support this army!
Needless to say, Li Quan and his ilk are unreliable.
On that day, the imperial court favored Yang An'er and appointed him a high-ranking official. What was the result? Now it seems that Li Quan is nothing more than another Yang An'er. To a certain extent, Li Quan and Guo Ning are both the same, but Guo Ning intervened early.
Zhongdu just put a layer of official skin on himself.
There is no truth in this person's mouth, no rules in his actions, and all he can think about is taking advantage of the chaos to gain his own interests. In their eyes, the imperial court and even Anzhen, the servant who represents the imperial court, are just tools to realize their interests.
Pusan Anzhen has always seen the plans of such people very clearly.
Originally, when the imperial court was strong and the Jurchens still had the power of force, the only way to deal with this generation was to kill them. If all the people with ulterior motives were killed, the world would be at peace.
But now, the core force of the Jurchens, hundreds of thousands of troops, have been buried in Yehuling, Migukou and other places, and have become the food of the Mongols. Pusan Anzhen also knows that the strength he has reassembled
, it really cannot be thrown away casually.
After all, Pusan Anzhen is different from an unscrupulous figure like Guo Ning. He is a relative of Da Jin. He has too many things to weigh and many constraints.
There are a bunch of unreliable people from top to bottom in the Great Jin Kingdom, so that the country is divided into north and south, and the center is passively beaten. In this situation, if Pusan Anzhen wants to do anything, the first thing to worry about is not to cause any trouble.
The court itself was in turmoil. He was always worried that the increasingly shaky court would be shaken down by his own actions.
Therefore, he would subconsciously avoid direct military confrontation, and try his best to design and drive, take advantage of the situation, and find ways to make these thieves kill each other.
This is not difficult at all for Pusan Anzhen, who is used to seeing the intrigues of the powerful in Zhongdu.
With a few dead soldiers running around, he easily provoked hostility between the Red Coat Army headquarters and Ding Haijun. Then he promised Li Quan the territory of the three Denglai states and the status of Jiedushi, prompting Li Quan's troops to quarrel with his own side.
Join hands to enter Yidu City and use exhaustion to determine the strength of the navy.
If everything goes well, Pusan Anzhen only needs to mobilize a thousand soldiers to make a show, and the army will be able to watch the fire from across the bank, watching all sides of the red-coated army, including Li Quan's men, turn against Guo Ning, and the blood will flow.
After all parties were exhausted, the Hebei army safely dispatched and harvested the fruits of victory.
But Pusan Anzhen never expected that Ding Haijun's power would be so strong. The red coat army would not be able to hinder them at all.
So, what to do next?
The Hebei army is not moving here, but the entire situation will not stop changing because of this. The main force of the Dinghai Navy led by Guo Ning, after Yidu Prefecture, took down the strongholds in Zizhou one by one. They continued to approach day by day.
, when this army finally reaches the south bank of Beiqing River, how should we deal with it?
Are the two families really bounded by Beiqinghe? Don’t talk about anything else?
Then, to whom should we seek justice for the lives of Heshi Lieyawu Pagoda and a thousand soldiers?
The death of Heshi Lieya Wuta really made Pusan Anzhen extremely sad. This was a truly painful loss that hurt his bones. He couldn't bear it no matter what.
But, do you really want to avenge He Shi Lie Ya Wu Pagoda and fight with Guo Ning?
"Xuan Envoy, is that in line with the wishes of the imperial court and is it cost-effective?" Someone beside him said: "What's more, given the current situation, it's not just Guo Ning who is worrying."
Only then did Pusan Anzhen realize that he was so lost in thought that he was actually mumbling to himself. It was Wu Lin who answered the question.
Pusan Anzhen quickly put on a smile, reached out to hold Wulin's arm, and said affectionately: "Haha... why are you here, sir?"
Wulin Dayu obviously came here in a hurry, with sweat on his forehead. He stepped back half a step and saluted Pusan Anzhen: "Envoy, from the battle situation in Yidu Mansion, I suddenly thought of something serious.
"
"Speaking."
"We have to be careful about Li Quan."
"Um?"
"Although Li Quan is a bandit who fell in the wind, he has been able to establish himself in Shandong for many years and amass tens of thousands of troops. He is a hero and has his own methods. Liu Qingfu also followed Li Quan for more than ten years.
He gained his reputation and status after fighting in every fight. Then, I don’t understand how Liu Qingfu’s performance in Yidu Mansion could be so sparse? Is this person surrendering so quickly, is it true or not?”
"You mean..."
"Envoy, we promised Li Quan that the Denglai three states have no chance of being realized. Zizhou, Yidu, Weizhou and other places that were originally under Li Quan's control have also been lost. Li Quan, for several days
After seeing the territory lost one by one and the loss of capital, will he get angry and turn to cooperate with Guo Ning?"
Wu Lin replied in a low voice: "Is it possible that Li Quan's troops in Yidu Mansion were not defeated in battle, but that they consciously colluded with Ding Haijun?"
Pusan Anzhen gasped.
The battle situation in Yidu Mansion has been very popular among the Dinghai Navy. Pusan Anzhen also understood the situation through the reconnaissance of his own spies. Almost everyone said that Pusan Anzhen
The troops were quite fierce, but Li Quan's general Liu Qingfu almost gave up the city.
Previously, Pusan Anzhen only thought that Li Quan was unreliable, thinking that he was only thinking about his own interests and did not seriously serve the imperial court.
But if Li Quan is not unreliable, but unreliable...
The two are completely different internally!
According to Wu Lin's guess, Pusan Anzhen can use the Red Coat Army for his own purposes, and so can Guo Ning. Originally, the cooperation between Li Quan and Pusan Anzhen was based entirely on interests. Now, in terms of interests, there is simply no difference between the two families.
After reaching a consensus, who knows if Li Quan will fight back and become Guo Ning's tool?
In this way, is it too dangerous for Hebei's army to penetrate deep into Shandong?
possible!
Pusan Anzhen originally thought that he was a hunter, holding a wolf in his hand and facing another wolf. If Wu Lin's guess was true, wouldn't he become a hunter being stared at by two wolves?
In that situation, is a hunter still a hunter?
Maybe, the original hunter has become the prey?
This is really big trouble!
Pusan Anzhen held the long knife on his waist and paced back and forth on the long embankment that served as a barrier on the south side of the military camp, thinking over and over again.
Under his sight, across the Beiqing River, was the gentle slope area known as Tieling and Yinling. In the cold autumn weather, the trees on the slope gradually withered and turned yellow, adding a sense of solemnity.
Two teams of cavalry were galloping between Tieling and Beiqing River, clashing like landslides and tsunamis. The weight of the men, horses and armor caused the weeds and soil on the ground to rise, and even the surface of the Beiqing River was shaken by this.
The ripples.
After several attacks from both sides, the knights and horses were covered in hot sweat. The general leading the team shouted the order, and the soldiers behind him blew the horn, and the cavalry retreated. When they stepped onto the pontoon bridge on the Beiqing River, they lined up in groups of two or three.
The group and the queue are still neat.
These cavalrymen, like the soldiers of Heshi Lieyawu Tower, are the core force of Pusan Anzhen. Pusan Anzhen gave them several times their military pay and the most generous treatment and equipment, and
The sight of them training non-stop every day is the confidence of Fusan Anzhen.
It's a pity that with such elite cavalry, Pusan Anzhen only has less than two thousand riders. The Mongolian army can go south at any time, and there are times when they need to fight for their lives. The failure of Heshi Lieya Wuta's troops will wait until Pusan is defeated.
An Zhen's remaining arm is best protected at the moment.
"Herald, heralded? What do you think?"
When Pusan Anzhen was meditating, Wulin Dayu seemed to say a lot, but he didn't listen to anything. It wasn't until Wulin Dayu repeatedly asked him that he became alert.
"Ah? How about what?"
"..."
Wu Lin replied in a low voice: "We and Guo Ning are both high officials of the imperial court and ministers of Dajin. It is a good thing that we are not at odds with each other. The envoy could not have written a letter and asked Guo Ning to have a face-to-face interview."
Talk. Let’s make it clear that He Shi Lie’s life will be exchanged for Bozhou, Dezhou, Dizhou, Binzhou and Jinan Prefecture in Shandong. As long as Guo Ning agrees, we will let it go.”
