Southern Song Dynasty military god

Chapter 563 Secret Conspiracy, Broken Yangshou
Speaking of living in seclusion, it seems that from ancient times to the present, anyone who is invited out of a place of seclusion is that kind of remarkable person. Therefore, in Liu Wei's view, the ancient people "living in seclusion" is actually a means of pretending to be coercive That's all, it's a necessary means to improve your compulsion.

It's just that the seclusion that Liu Wei told Gao Yuniang was not a pretense to improve his style, but that he really didn't like the feeling of being surrounded by a group of people wherever he went. In his dream, he felt like Like an eagle, it should only soar above the blue sky unfettered.

Being an emperor is not an easy job, especially in a feudal society. Not only is it high-risk, but it is also difficult to retire. Most of them will die a miserable death after retirement, and there will be no peace after death. Liu Wei does not want to be an emperor.It's just that Gao Yuniang didn't take his words seriously, she just took them as a perfunctory explanation of the previous sentence.

Fortunately, Gao Yuniang is not the kind of greedy woman. As long as a man is willing to perfunctory and explain, that is enough, which is enough to prove his weight in her heart.

"Husband, there are so many troubles nowadays, it's better for you to do less of things like today!"

"Yu Niang, don't worry, alas, this kind of thing is hard to come by, forget it, don't talk about it, eat!"

Compared to Liu Wei who lived a comfortable life in the new capital city, Jin Wushu had a hard time recently.

The plan to go south was originally an important step after he regained the power of the Jin Kingdom. Although Jin Wushu is not the kind of politician of later generations, and he also understands the lofty means of "diverting attention and resolving domestic conflicts through diplomacy", he just Instinctively feel that only by expanding outwards can he maintain his position in the Jin Dynasty.

The method is correct, but the method is only the road to the destination, and whether you can reach the destination in the end is also extremely critical.Obviously, now Jin Wushu's way to his destination is blocked.

The West Route Army met Han Shizhong, who defected to Liu Wei and became the Minister of Defense of the Central Republic of China. He led a heavy attack, let alone going south. If Han Shizhong sent his troops to the north, it would be a question of whether he could stop it.

The Eastern Route Army was also not going well. The soldiers of the Southern Song Dynasty led by Zhang Jun blocked the Jin soldiers on the north bank of the Yangtze River and kept advancing.

Speaking of the east and west, it was originally a cover. Although the fight did not satisfy Jin Wushu, it did not have a great impact on the final result.What really depressed Jin Wushu was the central army led by him, who obviously had an absolute advantage in numbers, but he couldn't tear through Yue Fei's defense line.

Over the past few days, under the scorching heat, dozens of large and small battles have taken place between Jin Bing and Yue's army. In other words, in almost every battle, Yue's army is fighting more with less. Under such circumstances, Yue's army can still guarantee a flat record. How can Jin Wushu not be annoyed?
"I can't delay any longer, I have to find a way to get rid of Yue Fei!"

In the past two days, Jin Wushu has been thinking about this matter in his mind. On the frontal battlefield, the mature Yue Fei seems to be a master of war art.It's not that Jin Wushu doesn't have the confidence to defeat Yue Fei's army, but it will not only take time, but also a lot of manpower and financial resources.

In the final analysis, Jin Wushu just felt that the resources he paid for defeating Yue Fei head-on were not equal to the final benefits.If it is said that the Kingdom of Jin is now in a period of prosperity, and the situation of the country is going uphill, then Jin Wushu may make such a choice.

Unfortunately, the current state of the Jin Kingdom is already in dire straits. Not only is there an old enemy that cannot be ignored in the Southern Song Dynasty, but more importantly, when the surrounding forces of the Jin Kingdom find that the former strong neighbor has fallen into weakness, it may happen one day. It will transform itself into a ferocious beast, rushing forward and tearing Jin Guo to pieces.

Jin Wushu didn't dare to put all his bets on this one, more importantly, because even if he could win this one in the end, in Jin Wushu's view, it would be a loss.

When Jin Wushu was in trouble, a counselor beside him thought of a plan for Jin Wushu with Qin's request to Jin Wushu.

The name of this strategy is called "killing with a borrowed knife".

Although Yue Fei was powerful, he was only a general of the Southern Song Dynasty after all. No matter how strong his troops were, they were only an army of the Southern Song Dynasty.If the emperors of the Southern Song Dynasty didn't want to fight this battle anymore, how could Yue Fei lead an army of the Yue family to resist the Jin army?
Besides, if Yue Fei doesn't even listen to the orders of his own emperor, can he continue to be this general?

It should be said that at this time, Jin Wushu had no intention of causing Yue Fei to be his mortal enemy.Even though Jin Wushu now holds the great power of the Kingdom of Jin, he is still a general in essence, a general, at least in the eyes of the people of the Kingdom of Jin, and in Jin Wushu's own heart, he is still a hero.

Heroes naturally have the bearing and mentality of a hero. From Jin Wushu’s point of view, Yue Fei is also a hero. He recognizes heroes and values ​​heroes. It was Jin Wushu who hated Yue Fei to the bone, but he still hadn't thought about letting Yue Fei die in the hands of others, especially for such messy things.

Of course, the counselor's plan is very insidious. Since ancient times, the most insidious people are often scholars, the kind who are born recklessly, but they often go straight. Whether it is for the enemy or for themselves, they like the word "happy".

If the counselor's plan was followed, Zhao Gou would not only have to transfer Yue Fei away, but also would use double countermeasures to force Yue Fei to turn against him, and then it would depend on the situation.It would be great if Jin Wushu could convince Yue Fei to win over a strong general like Yue Fei, just like the puppet Qi regime was established at the beginning. Ten thousand elite troops, why not do it?

For the counselor's abacus, Jin Wushu immediately denied it.In his opinion, Yue Fei is not the kind of person who is easily persuaded, and it is even more impossible for him to choose to betray his country. As Yue Fei's enemy, Jin Wushu feels that he can still understand Yue Fei's character.

After this possibility was overturned, the counselor was not discouraged, so he went on to say that if Yue Fei could not be forced against him, then let Zhao Gou do it himself and kill Yue Fei!In this regard, Jin Wushu was still noncommittal at the beginning, but as the battle situation took a turn for the worse, Jin Wushu had to start to consider the suggestion made by the counselor.

First of all, he met the envoy who met Qin's nephew.

The emissary was actually an official of the imperial court, but he chose Qin Ji in his official career. Of course, there was a reason why Qin Ji was popular. At the same time, it also proved that Qin Ji's thinking was satisfied to a certain extent. This person's analysis and prospect of the Southern Song Dynasty.

The process of the two meeting was very good.The reason why Su Qin was so outstanding at the beginning, and every poet and other literary masters in ancient times were so famous, just proved that in the feudal society, in the era when speech was imprisoned, one wanted to develop a good eloquence, especially diplomatic eloquence , is not an easy task.

Even the officials who finally made it to the court step by step by virtue of the examinations at all levels, there are many of them who boil glutinous rice balls in a teapot, but there is something in their belly that cannot be poured out.

The emissary simply relayed Qin's meaning, which was actually Zhao Gou's meaning, to seek peace.As long as Jin Wushu can withdraw troops and recognize the validity of the peace covenant signed by both parties, then any conditions can be negotiated.

After meeting the envoy for the first time, Jin Wushu didn't express his opinion directly, he maintained the reserve that a superior should have, until the third day, he summoned the envoy again.

As for the first meeting, Jin Wushu was basically listening, so this second meeting, Jin Wushu was basically talking.

Jin Wushu told the envoy that he was actually a peace lover, he didn't like war, and he didn't like fighting against the Southern Song Dynasty even more.Because, in his view, the people of Song Dynasty and the Jurchens are good brothers and neighbors who are separated by a strip of water, and they should coexist peacefully and help each other by nature.

From his personal point of view, he hates war even more, because it disrespects life and is a waste of resources!

It has to be said that Jin Wushu's eloquence is much better than that of the envoy sent by Qin Wushu. At least on the surface, the envoy was stunned by Jin Wushu's words—it turns out that this is the royal family of Jin Kingdom. It turns out that this is the real thinking of the top management of the Kingdom of Jin!

Speaking of this, Jin Wushu has to mention the beginning of the conflict between the two countries.In the beginning, the Jin and Song Dynasties were originally two brothers united to fight against the powerful Liao Kingdom at that time.It was the Southern Song Dynasty, who later resorted to militarism, which put enormous pressure on the Kingdom of Jin, making it difficult for the people of the Kingdom of Jin to eat well and sleep well, making their lives unsustainable.

As the ruler of the Kingdom of Jin, he was forced to launch a war for the sake of the health of his people, and there was only one purpose - to hope that after the threat from the Liao Kingdom was removed, the Song Kingdom could show a proper attitude .

What kind of posture?

That is the posture of defenselessness. Only when Song Guo showed such a posture, the people of Jin country would not have to worry about being invaded by Song Guo, and they would not have to eat or sleep well.

Of course, Jin Wushu's original words were not like this. With his eloquence, how could he speak so bluntly?But that's roughly what it means.But these words really lowered their heads and pondered what the envoy of the Southern Song Dynasty said: Could it be said that the source of the mistake really lies in Da Song himself?
However, Jin Wushu soon began to speak later.

It is not impossible for everyone to coexist peacefully. It is also possible to restore the previous covenant. The key is not what Jin Guo does.Didn't I just say that the wars were all caused by the Song Dynasty, so to solve this problem, the root cause still has to fall on the Song Emperor.
