"Okay." Tian Zhuo replied.
He immediately felt Wanyan Shouxu's palm trembling.
Among the current emperors, Sui Wang Wanyan Shouxu is undoubtedly the most outstanding one. He has a kind-hearted personality and is full of means. Although he is a Jurchen prince, he trusts Han officials. Two years ago, he was only thirteen years old, and he was already an outstanding figure. That's why Tu Shanyi used a huge amount of political resources to pull him out, and dispatched many talents to help him, so that he could succeed in Nanjing. Kaifeng Mansion held up a situation.
After arriving at Kaifeng Mansion, Wanyan Shouxu rewarded Confucian scholars, rectified the administration, allocated farmland, and used semi-coercive methods to order the rich to prepare cattle for breeding, and urged the poor to work hard; at the same time, he organized and trained the army as quickly as possible, and fought against the enemy. Repulsed Yang An'er's red coat army. For a time, all the military and political officials on Henan Road who had a desire to serve felt extremely excited, as if Daikin's future was suddenly bright.
As King Sui's virtuous reputation spread throughout many military states in Henan, many civil and military officials semi-publicly said that King Sui's virtues and talents were better than those of the current Emperor of Jin.
Some people even discussed whether it was possible that Prime Minister Tu Shan recommended King Sheng to the throne not because of King Sheng himself, but because of his good son. The reason why Prime Minister Tu Shan later sent King Sui away was also to give King Sui a chance to show off. In other words, as long as everyone follows King Sui, works hard, and accumulates strength, they will soon be able to show their talents. The moment when the Zhongdu court faced the Mongols and could no longer hold on any longer, it was King Sui's opportunity to lead his army back to the court and turn the tide.
Such an idea may sound a bit rebellious at first, but it is actually the result of Tian Zhuo and others adding fuel to the flames. Because King Sui's left-behind regime in Nanjing must rely on this idea to be integrated into a solid and enterprising whole.
But these good expectations have been shaken with the rise of Guo Ning.
Under King Sui's command, there were also troops established one after another by the captains of Jianwei, Zhenwu, Zhechong, and Dangkou, but the strength of these troops was inevitably inferior to that of Guo Ning's troops who were rampaging in the north. King Sui also had Wanyan Congtan, Wanyan Heda and other generals who were good at fighting under his command, but how could they withstand Guo Ning's ferocious spirit? Although King Sui's territory was gradually expanding, how could it compare with Guo Ning's furious expansion?
What's more, Guo Ning is a man!
Over the years, the external troubles of the Jin Dynasty were Mongolia, and the internal troubles were the irreparable conflicts between Han'er and Jurchens. As early as the Mingchang period, the imperial court seized the people's fields and gave the Jurchens the power to conquer the country, in order to stabilize the foundation of the country. At that time, there were knowledgeable scholars who seized the people and joined the army. They won the hearts of the army but lost the hearts of the world. This was a disaster. Winner of words.
Now that Guo Ning has risen, isn't it an unspeakable disaster? When a Han took control of the imperial court in Zhongdu with tyrannical force, the legitimacy of the Jin Kingdom was actually on the verge of collapse. All the hundreds of millions of Han in various places became unreliable because of this!
The situation is changing so quickly, and the strength disadvantage is so obvious, that it is impossible to cope with it just by improvising military training. Tian Zhuo is very convinced that many of his original ideas need to be adjusted; many things that he thought were within easy reach need to be calmed down and fought for slowly; many things that did not need to be worried about now require everyone to deal with them with full energy. Once you lose control, you will lose your head!
Many people knew this in their hearts, but they did not dare to make it clear to King Sui. So although King Sui was worried these days, he was still obsessed with the drought and locust plague, and he didn't understand how dangerous the situation was.
It was not until this moment that Tian Zhuo listed Guo Ning's military strength one by one that King Sui became truly frightened.
After all, he is just a young man. No matter how young and mature he is, after all, he is surrounded by ministers and has the noble stomach to achieve success because of others, but he does not have the tenacity to support the overall situation alone. This young man knew how frightened his subordinates would be. If all his subordinates are shaken, his power as the king of Sui and Nanjing will be extremely fragile.
Tian Zhuo patted the back of King Sui's hand with his backhand: "I am entrusted by Prime Minister Shan to serve His Highness. I will do my best and treat each other with sincerity. I will never lie."
Wanyan Shouxu looked moved: "Mr. Qi, you say it, you say it."
"We, Dajin, started from Haiyi, and managed to win the hearts of the people by filling tens of thousands of people. Later, although it was said that we were interested in rituals and music, and our glory was untrue, in the final analysis, the foundation of Dajin lies in force. At present, the rise of Guo Ning, If it overwhelms Dai Jin’s force, without the support of force, Dai Jin’s demise is imminent.”
Wanyan Shouxu's hands suddenly trembled again. Tian Zhuo used force on his hand to hold it down: "The current situation is as if Wang Mang and Dong Zhuo are in chaos, and the day when all the heroes come together is very close. But Your Highness, you must continue Han Zuo's Guangwu and Zhaolie!"
Wanyan Shouxu's face turned red and he took several breaths before saying, "What should I do? Mr. Qi, teach me!"
"Leave it alone, we people will do our best to plan for His Highness. There is one thing in front of us. As long as we do it well, we will be able to slow down Ding Haijun and buy time for His Highness."
"Tell me quickly!"
Just as Tian Zhuo was about to speak, he suddenly noticed that there was another person beside him. It turned out to be Wanyan Congtan, deputy commander of the Nanjing Road Commanding Army, who was training soldiers.
Wanyan Congtan, Tian Zhuo and others were the cronies who had supported King Sui to escape from Zhongdu, and they had no verbal scruples about each other. At that moment Wanyan Congtan sat down next to King Sui and said: "Speak quickly! Speak quickly!"
"Think about it, you two. This Guo Ning was born in the grass and acted fiercely. It is said that he likes to kill people himself, and his hands are stained with blood. I heard that when he was just a defeated army in Hebei, Mr. Tudan was very surprised when he met him. We cannot force him to bow his head. Once such a person rises, the Kingdom of Jin will be the first to bear the brunt. But what happens after he succeeds? Will he be willing to stay in Zhongdu and enjoy the wealth of his marshal? He is only twenty Many years old, it is the time to be ambitious, and all the generals under his command are brave and heroic, and they are all eager to make meritorious deeds. What he will change is not only the situation in Dajin? It will also turmoil the situation in the north and south of the world! "
"Hmm...you mean, we should involve the Southern Song Dynasty people?" Wanyan Congtan frowned and thought for a while, then pointed south.
"Exactly!"
Tian Zhuo nodded slightly: "Although the Song people are weak, now is the time to use them. Therefore, please send a team of envoys to Zhongdu first."
"What are you going to do in Zhongdu?" The two audience members were a little dizzy when Tian Zhuo confused them.
"When we go to Zhongdu, we naturally have an audience with the emperor. Since Guo Ning has not openly rebelled, how can he still prevent His Highness from sending people to pay his respects to his father? After meeting His Majesty, the envoy presented a gift to the current marshal of the capital as a token of his gratitude. Be respectful. I know there was a drought last year and we don’t have much food in hand. But please be sure to squeeze out a little and transport it north along the Yu River to show our sincerity."
"This is the direction of Zhongdu. Didn't you just talk about the Song Dynasty?"
"Please allow me to use the Nanjing Road Criminal Division and various interrogation and prosecution offices to release some information to the people of Song Dynasty."
"What's the news? Mr. Qi, I heard that most of the Song people over there are cunning and cunning. It's not easy for you to use any words to deceive them."
"No, no, there is no need to deceive. We only need to tell the story of Guo Ning occupying the central capital and seizing the military power of the Central Military Commission of Dajin. It is enough to tell the story of his fierce and brave deeds and the results of fighting with his army."
"Hey, isn't this trying to boost other people's ambitions and destroy our prestige? I'm afraid those Song people will look down on us on the Nanjing Road right away!"
"Isn't it good to look down upon us? We were about to let the people of Song Dynasty look down upon us, but suddenly they valued Guo Ning!"
