Chapter 713 Zong Han Goes South
"Gao Qiu, you have offended the vast majority of people by doing this. You will definitely be impeached by the court officials. Just wait, I will be fine!" Sang Jingxun laughed and said, "Let's go.
Let’s see!”
On the afternoon of June 18, Sang Jingxun, the transfer envoy on Hebei East Road, was detained and taken to the capital.
No one knows whether Sang Jingxun has higher-level information.
But what is certain is that Zhan’s big plan has already experienced a dramatic expansion when he came to Sang Jingxun.
This shows that in the Song Dynasty, it was too common for officials to do business.
This is what Zhao Ning and Zhao Ding have always been worried about. In the long run, if power monopolizes resources, the gap between the rich and the poor will continue to widen.
Until the interests of more officials are forcibly bound to the Jin Kingdom, if the imperial court wants to make the Northern Expedition or even start a war with the Jin Kingdom, the resistance will become greater and greater.
Internal political issues are always inextricably linked to the outside world.
This does not originate from the market, but from private smuggling by officials.
Of course, this time, one person may be pushed to the forefront.
Perhaps only Gao Qiu knew that the Zhao Guan family had been waiting for this day for a long time.
June 18, Liaoyang Mansion, Tokyo Road, Jin Kingdom.
Zong Han looked at the military report in his hand and felt very satisfied.
Gao Qingyi said: "At present, the war situation in Goryeo will enter a long and protracted war, which is beneficial to us. Zhongshu Ling, I heard Xizuo mention something some time ago."
"What's the matter?"
"It is said that Zhao Chen, the former crown prince of the Song Dynasty, was in Korea and made many achievements."
Wanyan Zonghan said: "He is just a deposed prince. Even if we catch him, he will not be of much value."
"No, I'm not saying that I want to arrest the deposed prince. It is said that the deposed prince has a lot to do with one person."
"oh?"
"Qin Hui."
"What do you want to say?" Zong Han asked doubtfully.
"The Song Dynasty attacked Goryeo and allowed the deposed prince to make meritorious deeds. Who is the most afraid of it?"
"who?"
"Of course it's Qin Hui, but I also heard that Qin Hui is in Goryeo." Gao Qingyi said, "Then why did the Zhao Guan family send Qin Hui to Goryeo?"
Wanyan Zonghan said: "I have heard a little bit about Qin Hui. I heard that he is only forty-three years old and has been in power for three years. Zhao Guan's family attaches great importance to this person. They sent him to Goryeo to complete the task of Zhao Guan's family.
Control of the political situation in Goryeo.”
"Shangguan was only right in one aspect," Gao Qingyi said.
"oh?"
"If Han Shizhong succeeded in fighting Goryeo, deposed the crown prince and made great achievements, had close contact with the Liaodong Army, and was a complete threat to Qin Hui, if Qin Hui was in the capital, he would have secretly instigated an armistice in the war against Goryeo in the court. If Qin Hui was in
Goryeo is far away from the center of power." Gao Qingyi said eloquently, "Our detailed work has repeatedly spread rumors in Tokyo that Han Shizhong will become independent, but they were suppressed. If Qin Hui was in Tokyo, the situation might be different."
"You make sense." Wanyan Zonghan was stunned for a moment, "It seems that we can make good use of this Qin Hui."
Gao Qingyi said: "It is better to send someone to Xijing to meet Qin Hui secretly to see if there is room for negotiation. Our demands are at least consistent with his in Goryeo."
Wanyan Zonghan nodded: "I'll write to Xiyin and ask him to arrange this matter."
"yes."
At this moment, the voice of the messenger came from outside: "Report! An urgent military report has been sent from Yanjing!"
"Yenjing?" Gao Qingyi asked doubtfully, "What urgent military report can there be from Yanjing? Is it possible that the Song army is heading north?"
"Come in!"
Gao Qingyi took a look at the intelligence and was shocked: "Zhongshu ordered that the Song army has sent troops to attack Zhongshan Mansion and Hejian Mansion!"
On June 18, when the news about Yue Fei's Northern Expedition reached Liaoyang Mansion, it was bound to cause a storm.
The most powerful figure in the Jin Kingdom, Zong Han, who dreamed of going south to attack the Song Dynasty, felt like a shark smelling blood when he learned that the Song Army took the initiative to send troops.
He became extremely excited. He finally had every reason to send troops south.
On that day, Zong Han summoned all the counselors and generals under his command to discuss the strategic deployment of going south overnight.
On June 19, Zong Han, who had been discussing all night, did not feel tired at all.
On June 20th, Zong Han began to assemble the army of Liaoyang Prefecture.
In addition to the 20,000 troops dispatched in Goryeo, Zong Han could mobilize another 30,000 regular troops in Liaoyang Prefecture. Together with the Han signed troops, a large army of 80,000 could be formed.
Zong Han's heart burned with raging flames.
He wrote a letter to Zong Wang.
It means that he should be prepared to go south to attack the Song Dynasty. There is a sense of threat between the lines. If Zong Wang still stands still, it means that Zong Wang has deep personal interests with the Song Dynasty, which will ferment into a political problem in the Jin Dynasty.
Zong Han even thought about which way Zong Wang should take, so he asked Zong Wang to take the Hebei West Road, while Zong Han took the Hebei East Road.
He also wrote a letter to Wanyan Salihe, asking Wanyan Salihe to send troops to attack Taiyuan.
Obviously he didn't know that Wanyan Salihe was in trouble in Daizhou now.
If the situation of the Fifth Song-Jin War continues to expand, it will force the Jin Kingdom to achieve unity internally and externally.
At present, there is a trend towards this aspect.
On June 20, just as all parties were paying attention to the situation of Yue Fei's Northern Expedition in Hebei Province, the battle situation on Hedong Road took a big turn.
Wanyan Salihe launched a strong attack on Yanmen Pass from the ninth day of June and lasted for eleven days, but in the end it was to no avail.
The food route to the south had been cut off by the Song army. Without food supplies, Wanyan Salihe had to change his tactics and move his troops south, with the main force moving to Dingxiang City and Xinzhou in an attempt to supplement logistics there.
, recharge your batteries.
At the same time, Wanyan Salihe wrote a letter asking for help from Zhending Mansion, hoping that Zhending Mansion could send troops to support him.
He did not know that at this time Niu Gao's cavalry had arrived in Zhending Mansion in large numbers and began a rapid attack on Zhending Mansion.
The situation in the war is developing beyond the expectations of all participants.
Wanyan Sali, on the other hand, retreated to the south and fell into the trap set by Wu Jie.
The Song Army fought surprisingly smoothly on all three fronts.
June 21st, true determination.
Wanyan Pucha took the intelligence from Zhongshan Mansion and looked at the intelligence from Kuaocheng.
He said: "The Song Army attacked Zhongshan Prefecture, and the Song Army also attacked the Gaocheng of Zhending Prefecture. What is the Song Army going to do?"
Han Lugu said: "But I haven't heard of any action by the Song army in Zhaozhou. Where did the Song army that attacked Gaocheng come from?"
