Ouyang explained to Huilan: "I will do this before. I will choose four smart and brave people here. Two are stationed in the state and two are stationed in Beijing. I will try to publish a version every four days. Don't write bad things, and sing praises first. What is Cai Jingdu and Tong Guan of the Western Army? I will ask someone to go to the interview quickly. The general meaning is that the people are all very good, the officials are very dedicated, and the emperor is also wise and powerful."

Huilan shook her head and said, "Sir, I don't quite understand why I don't tell the truth."

"We need to expand the influence of newspapers. Once the Royal Newspaper penetrates into the public, we can slowly tell the truth." Ouyang said: "Now when we tell the truth, we will directly seal the newspaper and list it as a banned issue."

"Yeah, I understand. I am really far-sighted."

"I'm just thinking of a way to find a few more people to go to the Jin and Liao countries to find news." What kind of far-sightedness is to refer to CCTV's approach, and it will be the Central News Agency first.

"Sir, someone in the yamen is looking for you!" Bai Lian reported outside.

"Okay, I'll go there now."

...

The person who looked for Ouyang was Wang Mai. Ouyang Rang went to the inner room and said a few words on both sides. Wang Mai said, "Just come back, I heard that the lord has returned, so I hurried to visit him. Boss Xiao thought that the lord was in Jin Kingdom."

"How is the business?"

"Apart from the racecourse, everything else is average. You won't lose money, but you don't make much money."

"It turns out that I made too much money, but I didn't like it?" Ouyang smiled and said, "Actually, it's just that. If you are luxurious, there must be more luxurious. After watching a family make money, who doesn't jealous. So I asked Xiao Ganyun to focus on horse racing. This thing has a reputation, and others will only squeeze in line at us. Is there any news about the Jin and Liao War?"

"Yes! A Guda led 20,000 elite troops to attack western Liaoning. Emperor Tianzuo personally led 700,000 troops to attack Huanglong Mansion and then wiped out A Guda. I heard that A Guda's transmutation soldiers were preparing to fight a decisive battle with 20,000 troops to 700,000 Liao troops."

"Twenty thousand to seven hundred thousand?" Ouyang was surprised. Could it be that Agu had hit an idiot because of his appearance?

"I don't know that Linhuang Mansion has mobilized ordinary people these days, and the young generals who are close friends said that the Jurchens now have only more than 30,000 soldiers. This battle must be a battle to kill the death. The Liao army has all the elite troops in the country. I'm afraid that Agu will have a lot of chance to kill the murderer."

"Yeah..." Ouyang sighed. It's okay for Jin to lose. If Jin wins, wouldn't it be suppressed by Song Yifen again? Why did Ouyang think Jin will win? Nonsense. History still knows this. Unfortunately, he is not in Liao, otherwise he would have to make a war bet, and he would make a lot of money. After all, the Liao people want to win by suppressing themselves.

"Thank you for your hard work." Ouyang said: "Let's have a good rest, and there is half a year of entertainment."

"Yes! That little one takes his leave."

...

Major international news: The Emperor of Liao led his troops to conquer 700,000 troops, and the Emperor of Jin raised 20,000 elite Jurchens!

This newspaper just received news that Emperor Tianzuo used 700,000 troops from the north and south to directly seize Huanglong Mansion, and the Jurchen leader Wanyan Aguda kissed 20,000 elite troops. The war is unknown at present, and according to insiders, the victory or defeat is 55. Liu Huilan, a reporter of this newspaper and deputy editor-in-chief of the Royal News, interviewed Lord Ouyang Ou on this matter.

Lord Ouyang immediately affirmed: "The Liao army will definitely be defeated."

Reporter Liu asked him the truth: "Mr. Ou, why do you say that 700,000 cannot beat 20,000 people?"

Ouyang said calmly: "The 700,000 soldiers in Liao have no one in a hundred experience in fighting. The people can be comfortable, but if the army is comfortable, the country will be destroyed. On the contrary, the Jurchens have 20,000 people, and there is no one who fears death. Everyone is a war-produced man."

"Is that just based on this?"

"I heard that the Liao country is turbulent and uneasy. The person in charge of military power is not the emperor. This army is outside, and there are ministers or kings who hold military power inside, so there may be turbulence inside. It is not scary for a person to have external injuries, the most terrible thing is internal injuries. If both internal and external injuries are injured, it is a miracle."

Our reporter also interviewed a senior expert, Prince Guangyang, the Prince of the Privy Council, and is now the supervisor of the Western Army. Mr. Tong expressed surprise at such a large-scale conflict on the border. Mr. Tong looked through the past situation of the confrontation between the two armies and believed that the Jin people were longer and the few were defeated. The Liao people did have the suspicion of unclear orders. But it was really unbelievable to say that 20,000 people could defeat 700,000 people.

Our reporter asked: "Mr. Tong, if one hundred people from Song, Liao and Jin each killed each other, who would win? Please note that all the remarks will inevitably be presented to the emperor for a look."

Tong Guan thought for a long time and replied: "Jin will win, and win by one against two."

The reporter asked again: "If there are 100,000 Jin soldiers going south in the future, can our Song Dynasty resist?"

Tong Guan said: "If there really is that day, the old minister will definitely devote himself to his work until he dies."

"Mr. Tong, what I asked is, can I defeat it?"

Tong Guan thought for a long time and said, "Let's stop today's interview. The old minister is busy with military affairs and will not be welcome."

Our reporter also interviewed the famous general Fangzhou Observer, Fengning Army Chengxuan envoy Zong Shizhong and General Zhong. Zong Shizhong was born in a family of generals for generations. His grandfather Zong Shiheng and his brother Zong Shidao were both famous generals in the Song Dynasty.

General Zhong said in an interview: "Liao is a tiger, but one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers. Jin is a wolf. If it does not come out, it will be gone. Once it comes out, it will inevitably attack them. The last general sees that Jin has a 20% chance of winning. If it is as Ouyang said, the country is not in harmony, and the gold has a 70% chance of winning. As for you, if the Jin Kingdom's army goes south... The last general is old and his son is mediocre and inaction, and there is no talent in the army. The last general thinks that it is urgent and it is better to accommodate good generals."

"What is a good general?"

"You can attack when you advance, you can defend when you retreat. You know your enemies and be kind to your soldiers. Even if you have the strength of a hundred people, you dare to break into the formation of ten thousand enemies, and even if you have the strength of a thousand people, you dare to avoid the enemy's attacks."

The reporter asked puzzledly: "I know the former, but the latter..."

"The former is a powerful general, and the latter is a general."

Our reporter also interviewed Yao Gu, the commander of the regiment, about this matter, but he did not expect that Yao Gu did not take the emperor seriously at all. He let his family coax it out after three disagreements.

...

Zhao Yu collected the newspaper and asked, "What do you think of your family?"

Jiang Zhiqi, the official in the Privy Council, came out and said: "I did not know that Huanglong had such a battle..."

Zhao Yu said angrily: "I am not asking you if you have any questions, but asking you what you think." He didn't say that you were useless, but instead asked to scold him.

"This... In ancient times, there have been many battles where few defeat the many, but there is no precedent for 20,000 people to defeat 700,000 people. I believe that what Lord Tong said is very true. My Song Dynasty imperial guards are not fully equipped, and a hundred people will naturally suffer a loss in the battle, but 20,000 Jurchens will defeat 700,000 Liao people. It is really... not something that I can imagine."

"Get out!" Zhao Yu's face looked a little difficult to look at Cai Jing: "Cai Xiang?"

"When you go back to your Majesty, I am the chief minister, and my duty is to restrain all officials and govern the world. Frontier wars are not something that I can discuss. Your Majesty should listen to the views of the Privy Council more. However, I believe that since the victory or defeat is unknown now, it is better to wait until the result comes out before making a decision."

A Privy Council said: "What Cai Xiang said is very true, like Liao is victorious, we don't have to discuss Jin anymore. If Jin is victorious, we not only want to discuss Jin, but also Liao. Now the situation is unclear, and it is indeed difficult to decide."

"Yeah, it's reasonable." Zhao Yu nodded and said, "By the way, I'm going to send an order to Yao Gu to Beijing to recitate his post."
