Chapter 601 Two Rogue Powers

On July 28, Wanyan Xiyin noticed something strange about the news reported by the Jin Army's scouts.

Gao Qingyi said: "The Song army marched eastward to Goryeo, but the number of defenders in Fuzhou did not decrease. This shows that the Song army increased its strength."

"How many troops did the Song army send to conquer Goryeo?"

"Previously, it was reported that at least thirty large ships were dispatched."

"It seems that the Song army not only moved the troops in Fuzhou."

Gao Qingyi was stunned for a moment and said: "What Shangguan means is that the Song army has also mobilized troops from elsewhere?"

"Maybe they were transferred from the Cangzhou defense line." Wanyan Xiyin said, "Cangzhou is the closest military town to Fuzhou in the Song Dynasty."

"Then we can consider sending troops from Hejian Prefecture!" Gao Qingyi became excited. A war fighter like him would think of starting a war as soon as he seizes the slightest opportunity.

"Cangzhou's defense line has weakened. If we go south from Cangzhou, we will surely burn the war to Jingdong again, and then go deep into Xuzhou and into the Huaihe River!"

The more Gao Qingyi thought about it, the more excited he became: "As for the reason for sending troops, let's say that the envoy we sent to Goryeo was killed by the Song army, and we want to avenge the envoy!"

Wanyan Xiyin sighed and said: "The Song army dares to transfer people to Fuzhou, how can Cangzhou have no defense?"

"What Shangguan means is that the Song Army also sent additional manpower in Cangzhou?"

"Yue Fei!" Wanyan Xiyin said, "The cavalry of the Song Army at this time cannot be underestimated and can reinforce Cangzhou at any time."

Gao Qingyi was silent for a moment and said: "Then we have to wait and stay still for now. It is not that simple for the Song army to attack Goryeo."

Just as he finished speaking, someone outside suddenly called urgently.

Wanyan Xiyin said: "Come in!"

The scout returned from Goryeo with an urgent report from eight hundred miles away: "Commander, there is an urgent report from Goryeo. The Song army captured Kaijing half a month ago!"

"What!" Gao Qingyi suddenly stood up, the expression on his face condensed instantly, "Say it again!"

Seeing Gao Qingyi's excitement, the man was a little scared and said cautiously: "The Song Army captured Kaijing half a month ago!"

"This is impossible!" Gao Qingyi's voice couldn't help but get louder, "This is absolutely impossible! The Song Army sent troops at the beginning of the month, half a month ago in the middle of the month, you want to say that it only took a few days for the Song Army to attack

Have you conquered Kaijing?"

The scout hesitated and seemed innocent.

Wanyan Xiyin took the battle report and read it, with a trace of solemnity on his face.

Such important information cannot be falsified.

Wanyan Xiyin sat down again. He didn't speak and drank tea slowly.

"The Koreans are more stupid than I thought!" Gao Qingyi felt that his cognition was impacted. After all, Goryeo fought three games with the Liao Kingdom, and the Liao Kingdom failed to conquer Goryeo.

"The people sent there should be here soon, so we can learn more about the Song Army's true combat power." Wanyan Xiyin was so calm that it was scary, "What method did the Song Army use to capture Kaijing so quickly?"

Yes, this is very important.”

"What if Goryeo is really destroyed by the Song Dynasty?" Gao Qingyi seemed a little anxious, "Now the Song army is eyeing Fuzhou. If the Yalu River becomes the frontline military town of the Song army, we, the Jin Kingdom, will have to go east.

If we invest in massive defense support, we will be even more passive!"

"Don't worry. Kaijing was captured. What was the situation of the Goryeo royal family? Where is Wang Kai? Was he captured by the Song army?" Wanyan Xiyin asked a series of questions, "These are all crucial."

"What if I get caught?"

"As far as I know, Kaijing City cannot be completely surrounded by a large army. The chance of the royal family escaping is very high. As long as there are still people in the royal family, Goryeo can fight a protracted war. The Song army is an expedition and cannot afford to be consumed. This was also the case in the Liao Dynasty back then.

The reason why the country could not conquer Goryeo."

Wanyan Xiyin continued: "Pay close attention to the two places of Fuzhou and Goryeo. If nothing unexpected happens, the Song Army will increase its troops to Goryeo again to expand its results. The progress of the Song Army's conquest of Goryeo will determine the outcome of the Song Army.

The longer it takes to consume, the better it is for us."

"In addition, send people to find the Goryeo royal family. To give them confidence, tell them that our Kingdom of Jin will definitely not watch their country subjugate. The imperial court is preparing to mobilize troops to support them."

Gao Qingyi said: "If Song knew that we were preparing to support Goryeo, would it have an impact on the current trade between the two sides?"

Wanyan Xiyin looked at Gao Qingyi and said with a serious face: "Why does the Song Dynasty think that we support Goryeo? This is obviously a trick deliberately unleashed by the Koryo people to sow friendship between us and the Song Dynasty."

Gao Qingyi was stunned for a moment before realizing Wanyan Xiyin's true intention.

Jin Guo: Anyway, I will send a large number of envoys to Goryeo to appease Goryeo's wounded soul, and promise support, but when? Oh, we are going through the process! Just hold on! I will support you mentally for a while!

Gao Qingyi made arrangements according to Wanyan Xiyin's instructions.

Afterwards, Wanyan Xiyin immediately wrote a report on the Battle of Song Li and decision-making suggestions to Shangjing.

Its core meaning is to try every means to make the Song Dynasty fall into the quagmire of the Goryeo War, consume the Song Dynasty's war resources in Hebei and Liaodong, and collapse the military defense line of the Song Dynasty on the eastern front.

The first day of August, Tokyo city.

Zhao Ning is finishing his "Dialectik", a book about speculation.

"Daddy, daddy..."

Roujia's voice came from the door.

"Your Royal Highness, the officials are busy..." Wang Huaiji said.

"come in."

Roujia walked in with the fourth prince Zhao Yu.

"Dad, there is something I need to ask you for advice."

"Come, come here." Zhao Ning smiled.

Rou Jia walked to Zhao Ning, and Zhao Ning moved two small benches, one for Rou Jia and one for Zhao Yu.

Zhao Ning gently stroked Roujia's long hair, looking like a kind old father, and asked: "Oh, why do you need to come to me specially?"

"I heard that some overseas barbarians came to Hangzhou to do trade in Tokyo and brought a lot of overseas goods with them. I really want to go out and have a look."

"I want to go too." Zhao Yu, who was only three years old, said in a sweet voice and joined in the fun.

"Are you going too?" Zhao Ning turned to look at Zhao Yu and asked.

"I...sister, wherever I go...I will go..."

Zhao Ning found Zhao Yu's appearance very interesting and said, "Do you know what is there?"

Zhao Yu shook his head and said, "I want to follow my sister..."

"You kid." Zhao Ning gently touched Zhao Yu's head.

"Dad, can I go?"

"Why do you want to go?"

"I'm just curious and want to see what I don't have in the Song Dynasty. Dad also said that the world is very big and there are countries beyond the South China Sea. We need to explore it, so I want to see it, so I go and see it.

Come back after reading it.”

Roujia started to act coquettishly with her little mouth pouting.

"Okay, go take a look. I'll ask Jing Chao to arrange some guards for you. Go take a look."

"I want to go too!" Zhao Yu shouted.

Zhao Ning said: "You can't go, you are still young."

Roujia made a face at Zhao Yu: "Wait until you grow up before going out!"

Zhao Yu was so angry that his eyes widened even more and he tilted his head.

Zhao Ning said patiently: "You will grow up soon, and you can go wherever you want when you grow up!"

"Thank you, dad." Roujia stood up, "Dad, I will go and prepare first."

After saying that, he ran outside. Zhao Yu saw it and quickly followed him.

Zhao Ning shook his head, Zhao Yu is too clingy to his sister!

When they ran to the door, they bumped into Zhang Shuye.

Zhang Shuye was in his sixties, and he staggered two steps after being hit. Fortunately, the waiter next to him was quick and helped Zhang Shuye.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Roujia quickly apologized, "We didn't mean it."

Zhang Shuye said with a smile: "Your Highness, please look carefully in all directions when walking. Don't act too hastily, otherwise you may encounter threats."

"Hey, thank you Mr. Zhang for reminding me that the official family is inside."

After saying that, Rou Jia ran away with Zhao Yu.
