On the first day of June, the Jin army in Hejian Prefecture began to gather rapidly.

Hejian Mansion was shrouded in war clouds.

Zong Wang's idea of ​​stalling the war, prolonging the peace between the Song and Jin Dynasties, and rectifying the internal conflicts in the Jin Kingdom was obviously going to come to nothing.

Once a war starts, no individual can stop it at will.

At this time, not only did Hejian Mansion begin to hear rumors of war, but news of the resumption of war also spread rapidly in Zhongshan Mansion like waves.

This was unexpected by everyone.

Zhending, Zhongshan, and Hejian were captured by the Jin army in the first year of Jingkang. For the next seven years, they have been shrouded in the power of the Jin state.

Officials in every county here recognized the Jin Dynasty's imperial court and called the Jin Emperor the Son of Heaven.

Not only that, the Jin State also stationed heavy troops here to intimidate the original Song people.

Seven years is enough time for a child who is ignorant of the world to grow into a determined young man.

Just think about it, a young man’s golden period is spent growing up in an area ruled by an enemy country. How will this young man see his original country?

Seven years is already a long time!

Yue Fei ignited this fire.

The news of Yue Fei's Third Northern Expedition was quickly sent back to Tokyo.

The news arrived in Tokyo on the evening of June 3rd, immediately causing shock to the entire Tokyo government and public.

As Li Gang expected, someone immediately stood up and started scolding Yue Fei: "This guy is ruining my foundation of the Song Dynasty!"

That night, numerous officials gathered at the Yamen of the two governments and held a heated discussion about the news of Yue Fei's journey north.

Almost half of the people began to criticize Yue Fei's behavior.

Cai Mao said this: "The war in Hedong has not yet ended, the situation of the war in Goryeo is unclear, and the war in Hebei has resumed. It is dangerous! It is dangerous!"

Some officials even blatantly shouted: "There is a problem with the new military administration! The military envoy's power to dispatch troops should be taken back! Otherwise, the court will not be able to control the behavior of the border commanders, and it will definitely lead to a big mistake!"

Even Zhao Ding said: "If the Xixia people go south again at this time, I will fight on all sides. It will be dangerous!"

Objectively speaking, this situation was indeed very stressful for the Song Dynasty.

Xixia people have always been extremely ambitious and are always looking for opportunities.

If a large-scale war like the one in the third year of Jingkang breaks out again, the situation that Zhao Ning has accumulated over the years may be brought back to its original shape.

This risk is very high.

That night, Zhao Ning planned to go back to Funing Palace to sleep, but was stopped by hundreds of officials in front of Wende Palace.

"It's so late and you don't go back to sleep?" Zhao Ning said with a smile as he looked at his prime minister, governor, and ministers.

"Your Majesty, I can't sleep," Cai Mao said.

"Why is Xianggong Cai worried?"

Cai Mao said bluntly: "Because of Yue Fei's troops going north."

"Oh?" Zhao Ning looked like I didn't know anything.

"Your Majesty, Yue Fei's troops rashly went north to start a war in Hebei!" Cai Mao emphasized.

"Oh, I've heard a little bit about this. Do you have any questions?"

"Your Majesty! The situation of the war in Goryeo is still unclear!" Cai Mao said bluntly.

"Didn't I give Han Shizhong 30,000 war horses?"

"Han Shizhong's reorganization will take time," Cai Mao continued.

"Will the Jinren give him time?" Zhao Ning's tone was still calm.

"But it does take time!" Cai Mao refused to give in.

"Death will not give anyone time! The War of Goryeo is related to the country's future plan to destroy Xia and the Northern Expedition!" Zhao Guanjia's tone suddenly became sharp, "My 30,000 horses are not given in vain! Even if Han Shizhong gives the body to

Even if I pile them up, I will take down Gaoli!"

Seeing that Zhao Guan's family was angry, Cai Mao did not dare to be tough anymore.

Zhao Ning glanced at Cai Mao and said: "I already know about the war in Hebei. Since Yue Fei is going north, the Military and Political Council should give full support!"

"But the war in Hedong has not yet ended, and the war in Hebei has the tendency to expand, so..." Wang Ciweng, the Minister of Punishment, said.

When he said this, other ministers also planned to take the opportunity to speak.

"Song and Jin have only had a truce for a few years!" Zhao Ning interrupted again, with a cold face and a sword-like tone, "Have you forgotten that the Jin people came to Tokyo several times? Have you forgotten that the Jin thieves are determined to kill us and the Song Dynasty? Have you forgotten?

Zhongshan and Hejian have fallen into the hands of gold thieves for seven years!"

"Your Majesty, if this is the case, what should we do?" He Li said.

"Take back what should be taken back!" Zhao Guanjia's eyes swept over everyone, "When was the last time the Jin people penetrated deep into the hinterland of the Song Dynasty?"

"It was the fourth year of Jingkang's reign, when Jin Wushu went deep into Xuzhou." Mo Chou took the words and said, "He was defeated by Yue Fei."

"The Song Dynasty has only been at peace for four years! Only four years! In four years, have you all forgotten the war? Have you forgotten all the heroes who died on the battlefield in the three years of Jingkang?"

No one dared to take what Zhao Ning said.

"Do I want to fight? I don't want to either! But the golden thief gave me a chance to settle down, and gave the Song Dynasty a chance to settle down!" Zhao Ning's voice seemed to be able to penetrate the night, shaking people's hearts, "The past eight years have been

, the Jin people used their iron cavalry to hang a sword over my head! I couldn’t sleep well!”

"In the first year from Xuanhe to Jingkang, the military and political affairs of the country were weakened, and gold thieves were rampant. All three towns in Hebei and Hedong were lost, hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians were defeated, heroes died, and the people were displaced, resulting in the loss of the national prestige of the country!"

"I will never allow this situation to happen again!" Zhao Guanjia suddenly pulled out his sword, "I fully support Yue Fei's journey north! From today on, I will clearly tell the world that offense and defense have changed!"

Zhao Guanjia's voice echoed in his ears, suppressing him with an invisible power, as if there was a huge stone in his heart.

"You don't need to say anything more, I must regain the lost ground in this battle!"

After saying that, Zhao Ning threw up his sleeves and left the Wende Hall, leaving a group of ministers looking at each other.

Zhao Ning didn't know that he was taking a risk by rashly opening a war front.

But for many things in this world, you don’t have to wait until everything is absolutely certain before you do them.

If we don’t seize the opportunity now, who can say what the situation will be like in the future?

The reign of Wanyan Zongpan was the biggest boost to the internal rupture of the Jin Kingdom.

The world is a huge disorder, and it doesn't give anyone the chance to have everything ready.

And the short-term peace is indeed paralyzing some people.

They have lived in a peaceful environment for a long time and have forgotten that the people in Zhending, Hejian and Zhongshan are still weeping under the sword of the Jin man.

That night, the Prime Minister and all the officials of the Military and Political Council did not sleep, and they gathered together.

Because the war is coming.

This is a vital war, and it's not just about the front lines.

If, once the war enters a tragic state, the logistics system established in Hebei and Hedong must be fully operational.

That night, the Military and Political Council compiled more than a dozen versions of the logistics supply plan alone.

However, the development of the situation on the front line exceeded everyone's expectations.

Wang Gui led the troops to advance into Dingzhou, and one piece of information was sent to Wanyan Yinshuke's desk.
Chapter completed!
