Jin Jun's current situation can only be described as embarrassing.(
beat?
The main force had retreated, and the entire plan was declared bankrupt. At least Wanyan Zongwang did not dare to send another 20,000 troops to Hehuang, and they had no reason to attack.
Do not hit?
So what are they doing here?
Fortunately, Wanyan Zongwang was in charge, but anyone else would have been so angry that he would vomit blood. When he started fighting with Wanyan Agu, he had encountered many difficult circumstances, and how could he have retreated despite the small setbacks?
.
"Du Tong, now the Eastern Karakhan Dynasty is facing a strong enemy, and it is an old enemy. I think they will not be able to care about Shule for a while." Liu Yanzong's voice sounded a little frustrated.
Wanyan Zongwang narrowed his eyes and said: "This matter is not that simple. I think it is most likely that the smelly cook sent people to report the news and lure the Western Karakhan Dynasty to attack in order to solve their urgent need. By the way, what do you think about the West?
How much do you know about the Karakhanids?”
Liu Yanzong said: "In fact, the Western Karahan Dynasty surrendered to the Seljuk Kingdom in the Western Regions more than ten years ago, but it still maintained its independence militarily. It is not yet known that the Seljuk Kingdom wanted to send troops to occupy the Eastern Karahan Khanate.
Dynasty is still what the Western Karahan Dynasty means."
Wanyan Zongwang nodded and said: "I heard that the Seljuk Kingdom is also very powerful. I hope it wasn't ordered by it. Oh, how many people came from the Western Karakhan Dynasty?"
"It's not clear yet, but it must be at least tens of thousands."
Liu Yanzong was stunned as he spoke, and suddenly asked: "Don't you want to help the Eastern Karakhan Dynasty repel its powerful enemies?"
"That's what I meant."
Shu Lie quickly said: "Du Tong, this---this is all their own business. We can't wade into this muddy water."
Wanyan Zongwang sighed and said: "Now it seems that it is hopeless to take Shule. The Song army can build a solid defense line with Shule and Hehuang areas. It is difficult for us to detour from Tubo, but even so, we can
We must not give up the Western Region. We want the Song army to have no peace in Shule, so we need more allies here."
Liu Yanzong said: "The commander-in-chief wanted to help the Eastern Karakhan Dynasty repel their powerful enemies and then prompt them to attack Shule."
Wanyan Zongwang nodded and said: "No matter whether we win or lose, we will always create trouble for the Song army. Although we have surrendered the Gaochang Uighurs and expanded a lot of territory in the north, the Southern Dynasty also recovered Dali and Jiaozhi, and now we have conquered
Tubo, after all, their strength has also grown by leaps and bounds. Now, they can either expand to the north, but that is impossible, so the only thing left is the west. I must restrict their continued expansion. If they dare to go west
, I will seize Shule and cut off its retreat."
Liu Yanzong said: "Then I wonder how many troops the commander-in-chief plans to send to help the Eastern Karakhan Dynasty?"
"No rush, no rush."
Wanyan Zongwang chuckled and said: "Then Ibrahim II has just ascended the throne. He is too young. This country has just suffered such a catastrophe, and now there is a foreign enemy. The enemy is still well prepared. And he is rushing to fight. I think it is very likely.
Eighty-nine times they will be defeated, and then they will come to invite me, so that we can show our strength. Let him submit to us, and I, Wanyan Zongwang, will not let my brother die in vain. I still have to
Let them replenish the food and fodder for my army."
At this moment, a young general walked in and saluted: "I would like to report to the capital that a secret letter has been sent from the grassland."
grassland?
Wanyan Xiyin?
Liu Yanzong and others secretly prayed that nothing would happen to the grassland, otherwise they would not be able to spare any time.
Wanyan Zongwang chuckled and said, "Don't be nervous. I sent someone to send a letter to Xiyin a few days ago, telling him about the situation here and asking him to analyze it for me."
"ah?"
The soldiers were very surprised when they heard this. Although Wanyan Xiyin was resourceful, Wanyan Zongwang and Wanyan Zong were superior in their ability to lead troops in battle. How could Wanyan Zongwang ask Wanyan Xiyin for help?
Wanyan Zongwang saw through the thoughts of his beloved generals at a glance and said with a smile: "There is a saying in the Central Plains that the authorities are confused, but the bystanders are clear. The situation here is extremely complicated, and we are in the middle of it. It is inevitable that we will not be able to see the current situation clearly or miss it.
Some, Xiyin, as a bystander, must see it more clearly, and Xiyin is very resourceful, and I really like to listen to his opinions."
Liu Yanzong and others were convinced by these words. They will benefit from this wise man throughout their lives.
Wanyan Zongwang took the secret letter and after reading it, he suddenly burst into laughter and said, "Yes, it's so simple. Why didn't I think of it? I'm so confused by the authorities!"
Liu Yanzong asked curiously: "Du Tong, what did the letter say?"
"It seems you are the same as me."
Wanyan Zongwang said meaningfully: "Actually, there are not many places we can go."
...
...
Shule City.
"Privy Envoy, now even the Jin army on the Uighur border has retreated. I think the crisis in Shule has been resolved." Zhuang Xiang said excitedly.
Li Qi nodded, but thought in his heart, this Yelu Dashi is really well-deserved, it can predict the enemy before it. If I let it grow up, I am afraid that it will really become a problem for tigers in the future. Alas, it is a pity that in the case of three tigers, only
Can we unite one tiger to eliminate the most powerful one first, and then another two tigers will fight. He said: "This crisis cannot be said to be resolved, it can only be said to be suspended. When the Eastern Karakhan Dynasty comes back to their senses, they will still
It would be great if we could persuade those who came to take Shule to shelve their disputes."
Wu Jie suddenly said: "Privy Envoy, now is the best time for negotiation."
Li Qi's eyes lit up, as if he thought of something, and asked, "What do you think?"
Wu Jie smiled and said: "Now the Eastern Karakhan Dynasty is facing a strong enemy. If we plan to attack, the Eastern Karakhan Dynasty will definitely feel very panic. I am afraid that they will come to negotiate with us without us opening our mouths.
, chose to put aside the dispute."
Li Qi said happily: "Wonderful! This is a very clever plan. Just do this and let Yuchi Poluo spread the word that he will send troops to fully recover the ancestral land."
Li Qi did not give the Eastern Karakhan dynasty any room to breathe, and immediately spoke out in the name of the Yuchi family, saying that he wanted to restore the country and regain its old mountains and rivers.
Sure enough, everyone in the East Karakhan Dynasty, both in the government and at home, felt panicked when they heard that Shule's army had made a move. If this was a two-sided attack, the East Karakhan Dynasty would really be facing a desperate situation.
After all, Ibrahim II was too young and couldn't calm down. He was so frightened that he couldn't sleep or eat well. On the one hand, he hurriedly ordered people to go to Shule for negotiations, and on the other hand, he asked Wanyan Zongwang to send troops to help.
Song Jun's stomping pushed Wanyan Zongwang to the position of savior.
After some negotiations, the Eastern Karakhan Dynasty agreed to Li Qi's request and put aside the dispute.
On the other hand, the Eastern Karakhan Dynasty promised that as long as Wanyan Zongwang could help them stop the enemy, they expressed their willingness to surrender to Dajin.
There was no way around it. The entire Eastern Karakhan Dynasty was in panic. The key was that too many things had happened in the past year. How could they deal with it? They just wanted to eliminate these troubles first.
Of course, this kind of surrender is just a political decision. Relatively speaking, they are still independent, just like the Gaochang Uighurs.
Wanyan Zongwang naturally agreed happily, and he also knew that the Eastern Karakhan Dynasty had reached an agreement with Li Qi. He did not have many suggestions for this. The word shelving the dispute was vague, and it could be picked up and settled at any time.
Now they don't have time to deal with Li Qi, so they might as well repair the relationship and avoid fighting on two fronts.
But as a result, the competition between the two great powers of the Song and Jin Dynasties has also reached a fever pitch. The competition in the Yanyun area has not subsided. In the west, the two countries are evenly divided and evenly matched. It depends on who can break this balance first.
The most pitiful among them is Xixia. They did nothing, but they were surrounded by the forces of Song and Jin Dynasties. Their small area was completely independent for thousands of miles around.
If this news reaches Xixia, the king of Xixia may not be able to sleep.
Li Qi and Wu Jie also took advantage of this opportunity to quickly push the Song Dynasty's previous defense lines in Tubo and Chengdu to the entire Hehuang area to consolidate the defense of this area.
Li Qi's intention was to mobilize 150,000 troops from the Western Military Region and the Southern Military Region to garrison at three points west of Tubo, Hehuang and Shule.
Of course, this kind of redeployment is not a complete redeployment. It also includes the expansion of troops and horses. Now that the territory has suddenly become so much larger, the army must keep up. Although the increase in the army will definitely increase military expenditures, but compared with such a large
A piece of land, this little increase in military expenditure is really a drop in the bucket.
In addition, Li Qi also released news to attract the Han people who originally lived in the surrounding area to come to Shule. Because of the Silk Road, there are many Han people living in the surrounding area, at least hundreds of thousands.
Nowadays, the Eastern Karakhan Dynasty is at war, and Shule is under the rule of the Han people. Of course, the Han people here want to live under the rule of their own people. As soon as the news was released, many Han people began to move to Shule.
...
...
The vast desert, the dead sea of sand. Mighty, quiet, and with a straight face, it always gives you a monotonous color: yellow, yellow, always hot yellow. It seems that nature is emptying the raging waves here.
The raging waves solidified in an instant, making it stay still forever.
Yelu Dashi looked into the distance of the desert, his eyes were not filled with fear, but with excitement.
The three sentinels came at a gallop. When they came to the Yelu Dashi, they turned over and dismounted, clasping their fists and saying: "Report ---! General, the Eastern Karakhan Dynasty has reached an agreement with the Song Army to shelve the dispute."
"It seems that my plan has been half successful."
Yelu Dashi looked up to the sky and laughed. Suddenly, he drew his sword, pointed it to the northwest, and said with great courage: "Brothers, success or failure depends on this one move."
"Roar---!"
Tens of thousands of people rushed towards the desert one after another, showing a desperate momentum.
The target of their attack is an ancient city, which can even be said to be the oldest city in Central Asia. Its name is Bukhara.
Oh, it is also the capital of the Western Karakhanid Dynasty.
