Chapter 136 The sea opens up and strikes from the north!
Looking at Zhao Gou, Liu Xiu was very dissatisfied.
Compared with Wu Wang Jifa, Song Emperor Liu Yu, and Zhao Gou, they are far behind.
The war ended like this, Zhao Gou is quite useless!
If Zhao Gou can't do it, let him do it!
It's time for me to show off, and it's time for all you scumbags to step aside and witness the miracle.
The war should be over. After years of fighting, whether it was the Song Dynasty or the Jin Dynasty, they suffered a lot of losses. They were tired of war. If it continued, peace talks were inevitable. No one could resist all this.
Soon after, the Jin Dynasty will clean up the main war faction, and the peace negotiation faction will have the upper hand; while the Song Dynasty will also clean up the main war faction, and the peace negotiation faction will have the upper hand.
If the fighting continues, peace talks are inevitable.
Zhao Gou cannot stop the general trend of the world. If he blocks it forcefully, he will only be harmed.
It's time to end the fight.
At this moment, Liu Xiu decided to make the Northern Expedition to the Central Plains.
Before that, I need to meet Yue Fei.
"Meet the Imperial Master!" Yue Fei said arrogantly.
"Yue Fei..."
Liu Xiu looked at Yue Fei, feeling very unhappy.
Yue Fei once wrote a letter saying that Your Majesty wants to kiss a gentleman, Yuan Xiaoren, and the Imperial Master is a generation of demons who brought trouble to the Song Dynasty and should be killed. Regarding the memorial, Zhao Gou just laughed it off and ignored it.
After the meeting, Zhao Gou showed the memorial to Liu Xiu.
Popularity difference is nothing, but it is rare for popularity to be so poor.
Historically, Yue Fei was so popular that neither the anti-Golden faction nor the peace-negotiation faction wanted to see him.
"Thanks to Pindao, I only stayed in this world for a while and didn't bother to argue with you! Otherwise, Pindao wouldn't mind killing the donkey and cooking the rabbit to death. When the Jin Kingdom is destroyed, Qin Hui will kill you. The next day
, arrived in front of the coffin, cried loudly, Peng Ju, you died so miserably, and then gave you the title of Wu Mu!
Liu Xiu thought in his mind, drawing circles and cursing Yue Fei.
"Pengju, there are two pieces of news now, one good news and one bad news, which one do you want to listen to?" Liu Xiu asked leisurely.
"The Imperial Master is free to do so!" Yue Fei said.
Liu Xiudao: "The good news is, Yue Fei, you are going to be granted the title of Marquis. Soon, you will be canonized as the Marquis of E!"
Yue Fei was shocked. This was originally good news, but it sounded ominous. "What's the bad news?"
"The bad news is that the Song and Jin Dynasties are going to negotiate peace. The peace advocates of the Jin Kingdom have the upper hand. The peace advocates of the Song Dynasty have the upper hand. Peace negotiations have become the mainstream. No one can stop it. Not the current emperor, not Han Shizhong, not even you Yue Fei!"
Liu Xiu said calmly: "Not even Jin Wushu can stop the peace negotiation!"
This is the general trend of history. The general trend is like the water of the Yangtze River flowing eastward. No one can go against the tide.
Yue Fei said: "How can the achievements of ten years be ruined in one day? If the imperial court gives up the Northern Expedition, the people in the north will be determined that there will be no possibility of victory in the Northern Expedition!"
Liu Xiudao: "After years of war and heavy taxes on the people in the south, it is not an exaggeration to call it a tyranny. In recent years, refugees from various places have continued to rebel, like weeds. One wave is killed and another wave grows. Who can put it down? What if?
In the Northern Expedition, using infantry against cavalry on the plains would have a chance of winning; in the case of the Northern Expedition, the long food roads would be enough to drag down the Song Dynasty's finances. Is it credible that the people in the north would eat pots of slurry to meet the royal divisions?"
Calculate political accounts, calculate military accounts, calculate economic accounts, calculate grain accounts, etc. The more you calculate, the lower the chance of winning in the Southern Song Dynasty and Northern Expedition.
Yue Fei said silently: "You know you can't do it but you do it, even if you die nine times, you don't regret it!"
Liu Xiu fell silent.
No matter how many reasons there are, they are pale and powerless in front of this sentence.
Sometimes, even though we know that it is a losing battle and a fatal battle, we still have to fight if we should!
"Now, the only option is to open the sea and attack Zhongdu!" Liu Xiu said calmly: "If we win, the main war faction will overwhelm the peace negotiators; if we fail, it's okay to say nothing!"
…………
Three months later, 30,000 troops boarded ships and headed north.
An army of 30,000 was insignificant compared to the Song Dynasty, which had an army of several hundred thousand. However, at this moment, it became the main force of the Northern Expedition.
Thirty thousand troops is the limit.
No matter how large the army is, it will be too much to bear.
Moreover, most of the people in the south are weak soldiers, and no matter how many they recruit, it will be useless; only the north is where the elite soldiers are.
Liu Xiu was sitting on the boat, thinking about the distant future. Yue Fei was standing next to him, feeling uneasy.
"This battle is divided into three parts military and seven parts politics. In other words, there are three levels of the city that need to be conquered by the army, and the remaining seven levels of the city can be conquered by just recruiting." Liu Xiu said leisurely: "Historically, only the only
Qin conquered all the enemy's cities, wiped out all the enemy's troops, and then completely occupied the enemy's cities. Only Qi surrendered without fighting, while the other five countries were constantly fighting, and it can be said that every inch of mountains and rivers was drained of blood."
"But in later generations, as long as I win key battles or occupy major cities, I will be the winner. Many cities will open their gates to welcome the king's army. Even if someone wants to resist, their heads will be chopped off by the surrendering faction soon.
Welcome Master Wang."
"This Northern Expedition and sea attack are not about gaining or losing a city or a place, or how much territory is occupied, but about annihilating the main force of the Jin Army, occupying key areas, and giving the world a feeling that the Jin Army is no longer in power, causing the Jin Army to lose its momentum.
The illusion that the army was about to be destroyed caused many neutrals and losers to quickly change their positions to welcome the king's army."
The big ship was walking on the sea, Liu Xiu deduced the future pattern, and already had a plan in his mind on how to attack, where to attack, and where to attack.
"Our army is only 30,000, and if we go deep alone, once the main force of the Jin Kingdom gathers, the entire army will be destroyed!" Yue Fei said.
"The key is speed, the key is to be fast!" Liu Xiu said: "An army of 30,000 must exert an momentum of 300,000. If the speed is fast, any flaws will not be called flaws!"
Half a month later, the fleet was moving forward, arrived at the Bohai Sea, quickly landed, and made a surprise attack, just like Jing Ke stabbing the King of Qin, attacking Zhongdu.
The Youyun area of the past, the Beijing of later generations, and now the central capital of the Jin Kingdom.
When they were less than fifty miles away from Zhongdu, the Kingdom of Jin discovered it and was immediately in an uproar.
No one would have thought that the Song Army would leap forward thousands of miles and appear in Zhongdu. At this moment, most of the main force of the Jin Army was in the south, confronting the Song Dynasty, leaving Zhongdu empty, and only the second-line troops were left behind in Zhongdu.
"Pengju, how will this battle be?" Liu Xiu asked.
"At this moment, our army is alone in the depths, and there are few troops and horses. At this moment, the best strategy for the Jin army is to defend, and drag the Jin army to attack... But according to the Jin people's character, they should take the initiative to attack!"
Yue Fei said: "The Jin army is good at field warfare, but not good at defending cities!"
"After more than twenty years of bloody battles, most of the older generation of Jurchens have died, and most of the new generation of Jurchens are living in comfort, and most of them are rotten and not worth mentioning!" Liu Xiu said lightly: "Congratulations in advance to Pengju, this battle has annihilated the main force of the Jin army.
