Han Shizhong said: "At the moment, we can only do our best to contain the Jin people, and then make plans after we have complete control of Goryeo."

Qin Hui said: "That's the only way."

After saying that, Qin Hui stood up and left.

Starting from late February, the voice of fighting against the Jin army in Goryeo gradually became louder. Under the call of the leader of Goryeo, the fight against the Jin army spread throughout the country.

Such publicity has the following impacts:

First, some local gentry began to effectively form organizations among the people.

Second, the mobilization of food supplies began to move slowly, which was conducive to the opening of the Song Army to support Xijing.

Third, under the pressure of public panic, the Koreans in the north will inevitably begin to flee south, which will drastically reduce the number of people in the north and increase the difficulty of logistical supply for the Jin army.

On February 26, Wanyan Xiyin's 30,000-strong army crossed the Yalu River and entered Goryeo.

At the same time, Wanyan Xiyin's letter to Wanyan Ba ​​Lisu was delivered to the Jinjun camp not far from Xijing on this day.

This is a letter about how the Jin army will launch a large-scale operation in Goryeo next.

At this time, Wanyan Xiyin's superb strategic thinking was vividly displayed.

He did not let Wanyan Bali rush to continue the attack on Xijing. Instead, he asked him to send cavalry to quickly leap over Xijing, penetrate deeply into the hinterland of Goryeo, defeat many state capitals between Xijing and Kaijing, and completely defeat the enemy from Xijing to Kaijing.

Kaijing’s transportation system.

This has only one purpose: to isolate Xijing!

This is the first step.

The second step is to win over a group of scholars north of Xijing to establish the basic base of the Jin Kingdom and coordinate resource allocation to achieve the continuity of the war.

The third step is to surround the Song army in Xijing with all its strength.

Judging from these three steps, Wanyan Xiyin is a very difficult character to deal with.

His overall view is very strong, he can see the characteristics of the current situation distribution at a glance, and deduce the most effective method based on this characteristics.

Moreover, he is also very patient.

The second step of winning over people's hearts and establishing a basic base shows that he is ready for a protracted war.

This is an opponent that may be even more difficult to deal with than Jin Wushu.

Although Han Shizhong has grown rapidly in recent years, his ability to control the battle situation is obviously not at his level yet.

On February 20, 8, the Song Army in Xijing City received an urgent report from the Yalu River.

By this time, Xijing finally determined that the Jin army was increasing its troops on a large scale.

On the first day of March, Wanyan's cavalry suddenly left the Jin army camp near Xijing and began to move south quickly.

On the second day of March alone, a small town in Xijing was attacked by a lightning attack by the Jin army, and its defenses completely collapsed within a day.

After the Jin army made simple supplies here, they headed south!

A larger-scale war cloud rolled over Goryeo.

In early March, there was another version of the rumors about Han Shizhong in Tokyo.

Early in the morning on the third day of March, a newspaper was placed on Zhao Ning's case.

The newspaper clearly wrote about the recent rumors that Han Shizhong was self-reliant, and announced the conspiracy behind this matter in a concise and concise manner: Jin people spread rumors in an attempt to destroy the Song Dynasty Kuangfu Goryeo Sheji!

As soon as this edition of the newspaper came out, it immediately caused a sensation among the people.

For a time, the number of people supporting Han Shizhong increased.

Han Shizhong immediately changed from a self-reliant and problematic person to the most loyal frontier commander in the Song Dynasty.

Those who were still scolding Han Shizhong half a month ago suddenly changed their minds and began to praise Han Shizhong.

Someone generously shouted: I strongly build a shrine for Han Shuai!

Some people even shouted loudly: I said at first that it was the Jin people who were causing trouble, but you didn’t believe me!

…

Gao Qiu walked into the Hall of Wende and presented a summary: "Your Majesty, this is the current progress of the Qingzhou case."

Zhao Ning took it and read it, then asked: "Suicide?"

"Yes, committed suicide."

"No follow-up?"

"Zhang Lu is still on his way back to Beijing."

"What about other state capitals?" Zhao Ning asked, "Didn't it mean that there were people in other state capitals who took the opportunity to expropriate people violently?"

"We are already investigating, but other state capitals are obviously under the instruction of He Jincai, and the mastermind may not be found."

"Why did He Jincai commit suicide?" Zhao Ning asked, "Aren't you even afraid of death?"

Gao Qiu hesitated for a moment and said, "Maybe he committed suicide to protect his family."

"Who is so capable?"

"Your Majesty, Zhang Xi, the transfer envoy of Jingdong East Road, was recommended by Qin Xianggong."

"What do you mean by that?"

"I feel that Zhang Tie should be held responsible for this matter."

Gao Qiu did not say that this matter was related to Qin Hui.

Qin Hui was in power and was now performing important tasks in Goryeo.

Without any evidence, it is impossible to touch Qin Hui.

Gao Qiu knew that Zhao Guan's family also had a bottom line, which was to present evidence.

In Zhao Guanjia's own words, this is called procedural justice, and the written regulations must be followed.

The emperor does not have to comply, after all, the emperor is above everything else.

But the consequences of not complying are breaking political rules, leading to larger-scale landslides.

This was a devastating blow to the Song Dynasty.

"You can handle these things. I don't want to spend too much energy on this matter. If you think anyone is suspicious, go and investigate and bring out the evidence. But there is a premise, evidence! You can't give

I trample the rules I set at will!"

"I don't dare! I will enforce the law impartially!"

Gao Qiu knew better that even if it was really related to Qin Hui, it would not be that easy to touch Qin Hui.

First, Qin Hui has already had a great influence in the court, and second, Qin Hui is a very smart person, how could he be easily caught?

If not, he might be counterattacked by Qin Hui. If Qin Hui doesn't fall, he will fall first.

Those little characters below, who are criticizing Qin Hui every day, how can they know how dangerous it is for the top people to attack him?

Gao Qiu said again: "Your Majesty, there is one more thing."

"What's the matter?"

"The number of people in the court who have been interacting with Mr. Cai Mao and Cai has increased recently."

Zhao Ning laughed and said: "Xiangong Cai is a humble and courteous person, and he is loyal to the emperor and the country. Naturally, there are many people who have gentlemanly friendships with him. Although Xianggong Cai is selfless, it does not necessarily mean that others are not selfish. Once this person has selfishness, he will

They like to form parties. Once they form a party, they will no longer care about the country and only look at their own interests."

Zhao Guanjia said some high-sounding words, but ordinary people really couldn't understand what they said.

But Gao Qiu heard multiple meanings.

Is Cai Mao selfless?

If you ask the dogs on the streets of Tokyo, they will shake their heads and smile bitterly.

The reason why so many people suddenly began to fawn over Cai Mao may have something to do with King Qi.

The old faction has been silent for a while and is starting to stir up trouble again.

Gao Qiu said: "Your Majesty, I have something that has puzzled me for many years and I still can't figure it out."
