What do you mean is that the prince may ascend the throne?" Li Hu was secretly surprised. If he was tortured, his new strategy would have completely failed. As for the idea of ​​taking over the emperor and taking over his country, it was a dream.

"The official family is in its prime in the Spring and Autumn Period and is in good health. The change of the imperial regime is still a long time ago." Zhe Yanzhi shook his hand, "I have been worried about it, but the prime minister must know that the return of this Western Expedition was a huge blow to Prince Yun. Bianjing agreed to the Western Expedition, but only gave him 100,000 troops. This is obviously a trap. But since the imperial edict has been brought down, whether it is Yun or Tong Guan, it is impossible to save it. The only way is to conquer Xingqing Prefecture, otherwise we will be very passive."

Li Hu and Dong Xiaochou looked at each other speechlessly. Zhe Yanzhi's words are reasonable. If the emperor does not die, the prince and the king will not have the chance to inherit the throne. The dispute over the throne still exists. In this way, the strategies of the Hulie Mansion and the people of the Northwest will continue to be implemented. In other words, no matter how the changes in Bianjing will be made, the northwest will still follow the established strategy.

"It takes time to conquer Xingqing Prefecture, and it will take a year or two." Dong Xiaochou said, "But you just told us that Bianjing will not only not provide us with money and food, but will also issue an order to withdraw troops and make the Western Expedition give up halfway." Dong Xiaochou looked at Zhe Yanzhi and asked tentatively, "Does the king plan to resist the order?"

"Yun certainly has a way to convince the emperor to delay the withdrawal of troops.

"Zhe Yan said straight, "The key problem now is that first, you must promise that Helan Mountain and Lingxia are actually controlled by the Song Dynasty, and secondly, you must solve the food and grass weapons on your own. As long as you agree to these two conditions, what reason does Bianjing issue an order to withdraw troops?"

Li Hu was stunned for a moment, then laughed. Dong Xiaochou felt that it was extremely absurd. Zhe Yanzhi was rumored, "The King of Han is the King of Han of the Song Dynasty, and the King of Han said just now that every inch of land he captured is the territory of the Song Dynasty. What reason does the Hu Lie Mansion have to refuse these two conditions? Is the assistance provided by the Song Dynasty to the Hu Lie Army in recent years enough to get this reward?"

"Of course..." said with a smile, "Of course I will agree to these two conditions. This place was originally the territory of the Song Dynasty, but it was occupied by the Dangxiang people for more than a hundred years. As for the issue of money and food, since you are sure that Bianjing will not give it to you, and you have to use this as an excuse to withdraw the troops, I have to find a way to solve it myself."

Zhe Yanzhi didn't expect Li Hu to agree and was shocked. Dong Xiaochou knew Li Hu's meaning, his face was calm and he had no intention of objection. Li Hu had decided to withdraw his troops within the scheduled time, and his promise was simply empty talk. His current purpose was to destroy the Lingxia and consume the strength of the Xia army to the greatest extent before withdrawing, and lay the foundation for the next attack on Helan Mountain.

Zhe Yanzhi could not believe Li Hu, and he had a premonition that Li was going to withdraw his troops. It was very simple. Li Hu's purpose of attacking Helan Mountain was to coerce Bian Jing. He brought the main force to the battlefield of Helan Mountain. Datong's troops were empty. The Jin people might take the opportunity to go south to plunder. The situation in the northeastern border was relatively tense, which led to Bian Jing having to give up the strategy of joining forces with the Jin people to attack Daibei. Although the monarch and ministers of Bian Jing were very stupid, they would destroy the Great Wall in order to faithfully implement the strategy of defending the internal and external defense, but there was really a problem with the "Great Wall". Bian Jing had to stop and use Li Hu and his Tiger and Martyrs again. So now Li Hu's goal has been achieved. Next, he has to fight back and use the stupid mistakes made by Bian Jing to retaliate against the Song Dynasty.

"It takes a long time to conquer Qingfu. Especially when we use land, we are the stupidest way. Therefore, whether we can succeed depends on the development of the situation." Zhe Yanzhi immediately tried. If Li Hu really planned to withdraw his troops, the people in the northwest would be plotted by Li Hu and fell into a dilemma. If Li Hu retreated with him, Bian Jing would take the opportunity to retaliate. He blamed Taiyuan and Shaanxi. Both Prince Yun and the people in the northwest would be unlucky. If they did not withdraw, they would fight against the people in the Xixia alone. There would be defeats but no victory. The result was even worse.

Zhe Yanzhi was not interested in Tong Guan's plan at the beginning. But Prince Yun was convinced by Tong Guan. The facts proved that Tong Guan's plan was simply wishful thinking. The eunuch general ran to Taiyuan. It was not to help Prince Yun, but to frame the king. Zhe Yanzhi saw that Li Hu did not respond and continued: "Tong Guan's plan had a premise. He assumed that the northern enemy would not go south to plunder. Or that the rebellion in Shandong, Hebei would not become more intense. In this way, Bian Jing would have enough strength to support the northwest battlefield. But from the news I received, the Jin people were ready to move in the northeast. The rebellion in Shandong, Hebei was not effectively curbed. The general trend of the world was not very beneficial to us to conquer Helan Mountain."

"Do you think the Jin people may plunder?" Li Hu was not good enough to pretend to be deaf and mute again. He asked with a smile.

"To make it understand relative to the Jurchens. How likely do you think is this?" Zhe Yanzhi asked back.

Li Hu pretended to be pondered for a while, and then said, "In my opinion, the Jurchens will not go south." He explained the reason why the Jurchens will not go south. It was reasonable and well-founded.

"As far as I know, Guo Yaoshi wrote several times to Bianjing.

He was about to go south to plunder and requested Bianjing to give more money, grain and weapons, and to ignore Guo Yaoshi. "Zhe Yan looked at Li Hu and said seriously, "I know that Guo Yaoshi was the deputy commander of the resentful army and followed Dong Shuai to join the Liaodong Rebel Army. After Youyan returned to the Song Dynasty, Hulie's Mansion and Guo Yaoshi had close contacts, and this is also one of the reasons why Bianjing tried hard to curb Guo Yaoshi. With Guo Yaoshi's relationship with you, if he knew that the Jurchens were intending to invade south, he would tell you the first one. Don't you know?"

"Do you think the Jurchens have the courage to go south to invade?" Li Hu asked intentionally.

"You led the main force of the Huli Army to attack Helan Mountain in the west, resulting in the emptiness of Datong's troops. Youyan and Hebei lost their protection. How could the Jurchens miss such an opportunity to plunder? Do you naively think that the Jurchens have no son invaded? In my opinion, you attacked Helan Mountain in the west, in fact, in order to lure the Jurchens to invade south."

Li Hu's vest cooled down, and Zhi's mother was thief. Zhe Yanzhi was really amazing and he actually saw through his thoughts.

"No, no..." Li Hu denied, "Bianjing wants to kill me, I have to save myself. The only way for me to break through the encirclement is to attack Helan Mountain and occupy Hetao..."

"You are the master, you are robbing by fire, taking advantage of the opportunity of the Jin people going south to invade into the Central Plains?" Zhe Yanzhi interrupted Li Hu's defense without hesitation and asked sternly.

Dong Xiaochou frowned deeply and opened her mouth and said: "Refute, but Li Hu stopped him. "I just won a victory in Helan Mountain, but your thoughts changed immediately. I thought of me as sinister and cunning, and I was unforgivable. I asked you, if I lost, would you still think so?" Li Hu sneered, "Do you know why you came north with the army? You still want to use the Dangxiang people to weaken my strength. The result is as good as you wish. You see that my strength is getting bigger and bigger, and it has seriously threatened your safety, and then you want to kill me, right? In my opinion, you are exactly the same as the idiots in Bianjing. If you make decisions with this idea, you will harm the people of the northwest and your Zhe family."

Li Hu's power made Zhe Yanzhi feel secretly disheartened. He realized that the situation in the northwest was out of control. Whether it was the Prince of Yun or the Generals in the northwest, they were no longer able to control the situation and could only let Li Hu do whatever he wanted.

Li Hu did want to go south, but he needed to choose the right time to go south, to be recognized by Prince Yun and the Northwest Generals, and to be recognized by the people of the Song Dynasty. Otherwise, Li Hu's southward journey was actually equivalent to the invasion of the Northern Enemy.

Li Hu had a premonition from Zhe Yanzhi's words that things were developing much more complicated than he thought. The victory he had won on the battlefield in the northwest shocked the northwest and posed a huge threat to the people of the northwest. This led to the people of the northwest being afraid of themselves. They tried every means to stop themselves from moving south, and the situation became more and more complicated.

After seeing Yanzhi off, Li Hu invited Chai Yun and Yuanye to the big tent. He did not let Fan Zhichang participate. He was very sensitive about going south. Fan Chang's children from famous families from the Song Dynasty were completely different from those of the northern Han people in treating the Song Dynasty. Sometimes it would be better to avoid it.

Dong Xiaochou believed that the time to change the army was to be changed, "If the Jurchens attacked Datong, we would withdraw our troops. If Datong has always been safe, we would try to delay the time of withdrawal to avoid falling into Taiyuan in a dilemma.

Now the relationship between Prince Yun and the people in the northwest is not good. If you are attacked by Bian Jing, it will obviously be unfavorable for us to go south."

Chai Yun and Yuan Ye agreed with Dong Xiaochou. However, considering the financial situation of the Hulie Mansion, Chai Yun believes that even if the army delays its retreat, the time will not be too long. It is mid-October. In more than a month, the Yellow River will be frozen, and heavy snow will fall from the sky. The transportation of food, grass and supplies will become more difficult. If an attack is launched, the consumption will be even more amazing. Although the Hulie Army is plundering in Lingxia, the Hulie Army has hundreds of thousands of people, including the people and prisoners. These people have to eat, dress and keep the cold. Even if there are many plunders, it is too difficult to support the entire long winter, and it is almost impossible.

"What advice do you have?" Li Hu asked, "When will you withdraw your troops for us?"

"If the general commander unintentionally attacks Xingqing Mansion before the heavy snow comes, then return half of the food shooting army and all the people, and send the prisoners back to Datong together." Chai Yun said, "In this way, it will be no problem for 200,000 people to support for another three months."

Li Hu thought for a while and asked, "Since we do not have the strength to attack Xingqing Mansion, why do we have 200,000 people left? Just withdraw the main force and leave tens of thousands of horse troops."

"Are you worried about Datong?" Dong Xiaohou asked.
