It is the eighth day of the sixth lunar month in the eighth year of Tianhui.
In the imperial city of Daxing Mansion in Nanjing, a meeting to decide on the candidate for Ban Bo and the strategy of the Kingdom of Jin to resist the Song Dynasty is in progress - these two things are now combined into one thing.
The Aguda faction pushed Wanyan Zongqian's second son, Wanyan Liang, who was only eight years old, to come forward, just so that he could divide his troops to fight against the Song Dynasty... Well, at least that's what Wanyan Zongbi said now!
"Yes, Digu is a child. Although he is smart and strong, and he is fast and good in martial arts, he is still a child after all... But why should we push him out to be Bamboo? What about Ji Lie? To put it bluntly, it’s just to divide the troops to fight against the Song Dynasty!”
Divide your troops to fight against the Song Dynasty? Isn't this nonsense?
What Wanyan Zongbi said meant that even Wanyan Zonggou, a military layman, knew it was wrong! We are strong when we join forces, but we are weak when we divide our forces?
If it is really to resist the Song Dynasty, then the three factions of Wu Qimai, Aguda, and Nianhan should be concentrated in one person, and a knowledgeable Banbo Jilie who can centralize power should be selected... Only in this way can the Kingdom of Jin be conquered The power is twisted into a rope!
"Wu Shu, if you divide your troops, you will be weak, but if you join forces, you will be strong! If we want to fight the Song Dynasty better, shouldn't we join forces?" Wanyan Wu's begging younger brother, Marshal Zuo Dujian Wanyan Ang, obviously didn't understand the current situation. Regarding the situation, he confusedly asked Wanyan Zongbi.
Wanyan Zongbi glanced at this little uncle who was a few years younger than him and had always been confused. He felt a little helpless... This guy never knew how to lead troops in war. It was nothing when Aguda sent him to guard Linhuang Mansion. For big things, just look at the surrendered Khitan tribes. As a result, the Khitans refused to obey his control and defected in large numbers.
When Aguda learned about it, he became furious and ordered his people to arrest him in preparation for severe punishment. But before anyone could catch him in Huining Mansion, Aguda died first.
In order to appease people's hearts, Wu Qimai, who came to the throne, gave his little brother a lenient sentence and had him beaten up to settle the matter. Now he has sneaked into the high position of Marshal Zuo Dujian... Of course, he This Zuo Dujian is fake and doesn't care about anything.
But no matter how confused this person is, he is still an uncle!
He and Wu Qi were the ones who bought A Gu for a lifetime now, so Wanyan Zongbi had to give him some face.
"Uncle, you don't know something..." Wanyan Zongbi patiently said to Wanyan Ang, "The strength of combined troops is used when attacking the enemy's country. The strength of divided troops is used to defend the four sides. Time. If we want to attack Zhao Kai, of course we should unite our forces together.
But the current situation is that the enemy is slightly stronger and we are slightly weaker. If we want to attack, it will be difficult to win, so we can only focus on defense first, and then slowly accumulate strength to weaken Zhao Song and Xu Tu to make progress.
And if you want to defend, you will naturally have to divide the troops to guard it! This division of troops for guarding... is not just as simple as where to send troops to garrison, but also the big problem of moving nationalities into Nanjing Road, Xijing Road, Hebei Road, and Jinglu Road needs to be solved!
Otherwise, if the nation is between white mountains and black waters, it would be impossible for them to stay in the pass for a long time. How can they carry out long-term defense? And to preside over the migration of the nation, wouldn’t it be possible for an important minister or veteran to do it? "
What Wanyan Zongbi said makes sense... Of course there is truth in it.
The Jurchens were originally a tribal society, and most of the people who became important ministers and generals in the early days of the Jin Dynasty were tribal leaders. For example, Wanyan Zonghan, Wanyan Zongqian, Wanyan Zongfu, Wanyan Zongbi and others all controlled a considerable number of Jurchen Meng'an.
Let them serve as military envoys and bring their respective subordinates to the pass. It will definitely be the easiest way to defend the territory... but it will also be easy to turn each military envoy's jurisdiction into a de facto independent one. kingdom!
But having said that, if these tribal leaders and their henchmen were eliminated, the Kingdom of Jin could establish a fairly centralized rule, but how many people did the Jurchen and Bohai tribes have in total? Can you withstand the rounds of cleaning?
Wanyan Zonggou said in his heart: The theory of Wushu sounds grand, but in fact it is still too selfish... He just wants to get the throne to the Aguda family, and at the same time find a dominating Jiedushi. If he was really for the good of the Kingdom of Jin, he should take the lead in handing over all the Meng'an Mooke and let the generals below lead them into the pass to guard separately, instead of leading them himself.
"Uncle," Wanyan Zonghan saw that Zong Bi had finished speaking, so he took up the topic and added, "I led my men to capture the territory on Jingdong Road... and I have always been guarding it personally, leaving it to others. I'm not worried!
And most of my subordinates were left behind by my grandfather and father. I would be even more worried if they were handed over to others! "
What he meant was: The territory is not handed over! No surrender of military power!
As long as they don't surrender, neither Wanyan Zongqian nor Wanyan Zongpan will dare to do anything to Wanyan Zonghan. If they really want to let go and start a civil war, Wanyan Zonghan will not be afraid of anyone, not to mention that he has Wanyan's bodyguard!
After saying this, he glanced at Wanyan Zongpan again, "Puluhu, do you think what I said makes sense?"
Wanyan Zongpan originally thought that he was acquainted with Banbo Jilie, but now that Zong Han's "defection" had disturbed him, he naturally hated it.
But since he doesn't know Banbo Jilie, he can't hand over the little military power and territory in his hands... That Wanyan Liang is Wanyan Zongqian's son!
Wanyan Zongpan glanced at Wanyan Liang, who was standing next to Wanyan Zongqian... With thick eyebrows and big eyes, he was not a good person at first glance!
If you don’t hold on to your military power and territory more firmly, you’ll be killed by him at some point!
So...the territory is not handed over! We won’t hand over military power!
"Brother Nianhan's words make sense!" Wanyan Zongpan paused, "But...how will this territory be divided?"
Wanyan Zonghan said: "My father has two sons, namely me and the brothers Alan. Alan is a scholar and cannot be a military governor. So I became one for him... Ziqing Eleven Prefecture One Fuzhou, plus Fuzhou and Hesuguan Road, it’s not much, right?”
Wanyan Wu begged for money and gritted his teeth, "Not much, not much!"
He originally felt that Wanyan Zonghan wanted too much... Now that his own son could not be chosen as Shun Ban Bo Ji Lie, he felt that Zonghan didn't want much. With Zong Han's approval, he could fight for as much territory as possible for Wanyan Zongpan and Wanyan Zonggu (Zongpan's younger brother).
"I have fourteen biological sons, but it's a pity that no one can compare with you Nianhan. Let them appoint two military envoys on Dongdong Road and Xianping Road to watch your retreat!" Wanyan Wu Qi Mai glanced at his adopted son Wanyan Zonggou again, "In addition, I also have an adopted son, Wulimei, who has sealed off Jingdong Road and Huaibei (belonging to Huainan Road) seven states, one government and one army... Let's keep it as usual! "
Old fox!
The sons who were beaten by Aguma began to curse in their hearts when they heard what Wu Qimai said.
Wu Qimai actually retracted...to Tokyo Road and Xianping Road - these two roads are outside the Northeast Pass. Among them, Tokyo Road is centered on Liaoyang, and Xianping Road is centered on Liaoyang. Xianpingfu in the north is the ruling center.
These two roads occupy very valuable and fertile plains, and are far away from the front line. You can live comfortably, and you can also keep the Aguda and Nianhan factions in front!
If the Aguda and Nianhan factions were badly defeated by Zhao Kai, Wu Qimai's sons might still have a chance to become emperors.
However, Aguda's sons have nothing to do with Wu Qimai now. Wu Qimai is still the emperor!
Wanyan Zong smiled and said: "Everything is at your Majesty's command."
Wanyan Zonghan also said: "Your Majesty is more thoughtful. Liaodong does need important ministers and generals to guard it."
Wu Qimai smiled and asked Zong Qian, "Oben, your father has many sons, and they are all very capable. Why do you have to appoint a few more military governors?"
Wanyan Zong smiled dryly: "Then it's better to be respectful than to obey!"
Of course he also knew that Wu Qimai had bad intentions... When he was not granted the title of Jiedushi, the brothers could still cling to each other, but if they were granted the title of Jiedushi, they would become an independent entity.
But Wanyan Zongqian still has to be sealed!
It is true that he is the eldest brother, but the following four people, Zong Wang, Zong Fu, Zong Bi, and Zong Jun, are very powerful. Although his nephew Wanyan Dan is young, he has his father Zong Jun (the eldest son of Wanyan Aguda) left behind. His old subordinates are also very powerful.
Therefore, Aguda’s line must be entrusted with at least five Jiedu envoys!
And with each of these five Jiedushi enfeoffed, Wanyan Zongqian doesn't have much strength left...
"Olubu (Zongwang) will be sealed off on Damingfu Road, and he will be granted the title of Jiedu Envoy of Weibo Town!" Wanyan Zongqian looked at Zongwang who came in sick and sealed off Weibo Town.
"Yu Liduo (Zongfu) went to Xijing and was granted the title of Datong Jiedushi." Zong Qian generously gave most of the land on Xijing Road to his third brother Wanyan Zongfu.
"As for Wushu...just go to Dading Prefecture and grant the title of Pinglu Jiedushi!" Wanyan Zongbi obtained part of the Zhongjing Road on the roadside of Nanjing, which was almost the territory of the Pinglu Army of the Tang Dynasty.
"How about Lu Guan (Zong Jun) just stays in Huining Mansion?" Wanyan Zongqian also has to have a brother in his hometown in the northeast. Otherwise, what will happen if Wu Qibi's faction rebels?
"He La (Wanyan Dan) is still young, so he can be granted the title of Jinzhou and Laizhou first." Wanyan Zongqian also granted the two states belonging to Zhongjing Road to Wanyan Dan, who was only eleven years old. Although the territory was not large, But it’s always an explanation.
Wanyan Wu Qimai nodded and said: "That's three of my family, one is Nianhan, plus Olubu, Nianliduo, Wushu, Nianluguan, Hela... a total of nine festivals." Done!"
"There is another Hebule," Wanyan Zongqian reminded, "there are ten Jiedu envoys in total."
After sealing these ten military envoys, Wan Yanliang, the future emperor of the Jin Kingdom, was still left with Nanjing Road, Beijing Road (in the Linhuang Mansion area), most of Hebei Road, and some large and wild areas in the northeastern frontier. The site...is actually okay.
"Yes, there are also Mongol people... there are ten Jiedu envoys in total," Wanyan Wu Qimai nodded, "Oben (Zongqian), you can be a Nanjing left-behind... Digunai will take over the Marshal first and stay in Nanjing, and I will return to Liaoyang to recuperate."
Wu Qimai is running away!
