The military meeting in the emperor's stronghold was actually a Bojilie meeting that could decide the national policy of Dajin!
Emperor Wu Qimai was Du Bojilie, Du Marshal Wanyanxie was also familiar with Banbo Jilie, Wanyan Auben (Zongqian), the boss of Wanyan Aguda's faction, was Guolun Bojilie, and Wanyan Xiebao's father Wanyan Nianhan is extremely strong.
The current Dai Jin Guobo is extremely strong in the Communist Party of China. As long as the four of them reach an agreement, Dai Jin's national policy can be changed.
The previous decision to attack the Song Dynasty was also made after Wu Qimai, Xie Ye, Nianhan and Auben reached a consensus.
What today's Bojilie meeting will discuss is not changing or formulating national policies, but revising the strategy for attacking the Song Dynasty. Because the previous plan to divide the troops into two groups did not seem to be going well, the West Route Army was unable to break through the siege of Taiyuan, and at the same time it did not attract many reinforcements from the Song Dynasty.
The East Route Army was blocked in the northeast of Kaifeng Mansion and could not continue to advance without even seeing the city wall of Kaifeng Mansion.
In this case, the Kingdom of Jin certainly had to change its plan and could no longer divide its forces into two groups. Otherwise, even if the West Route Army breaks through Taiyuan, it may not be able to gather and annihilate the Song Army from Hedong and the reinforcements from Shaanxi outside Taiyuan City. This means that after the Song Army is defeated in Taiyuan City, it can continue to use the mountainous terrain in Hedong to defend itself and delay the Jin Army's Western Route Army from moving south.
At the same time, the Song army on the east road was far stronger than the Jin Kingdom knew!
Originally, the Kingdom of Jin only knew that the Kingdom of Song had a so-called 80-number forbidden army, but they didn't know if there were really that many? However, one thing is certain, that is, the Song Dynasty had no hero, no good generals, no commanders, and only had numerical advantages that could not be used.
But now that the Song Dynasty had Lieutenant Gao Qiu and General Zhao Bupo, they could organize and utilize their hundreds of thousands of rabble... So the Kaifeng Sanya seemed to have disappeared in the early days of the war. The Forbidden Army (the main force of the 800,000 Forbidden Army) finally began to exert force when the Jin soldiers advanced to the edge of the Yellow River, and there were signs of getting stronger and stronger!
If the Song Army's East Route Army is allowed to continue to grow, in another year and a half, the Dajin East Route Army will have to flee back to Nanjing Road with its tail between its legs in despair... Oh, it's still not possible to escape back to Nanjing Road. It's not the worst thing. If a war happens between two evenly matched opponents, sometimes it can be really dangerous. If you're not careful, the consequences are unimaginable!
Therefore, it is natural for Wanyan Nianhan, the commander-in-chief of the Jin Army's West Route Army, to agree to change the combat strategy.
The best strategy now is to concentrate the main forces of the Eastern and Western Route armies and use them on the Eastern Front in an attempt to defeat the Eastern Song Army in one fell swoop, or to rely on the strength of their numbers to force Zhao Kai to accept a Song-Jin version of the Chanyuan Alliance - peace negotiation. Of course, it is also an important option, and it is not used to fool Zhao Kai.
After all, the Jurchens of the Jin Kingdom are a nation with a relatively small population. Even including the Bohai people and some Khitan people who have completely surrendered, Dingtian only has 3 million people. Under the situation that all the people are soldiers, it is of course a good thing for everyone to be happy to conscript hundreds of thousands of people to rob the extremely rich Song Dynasty.
But once they were unable to grab money from the Song Dynasty or the cost of grabbing money was too high to make a profit... then hundreds of thousands of strong men would not engage in production but stay on the battlefield for many years. This cost But the Great Jin Kingdom simply cannot afford it.
Oh, the Kingdom of Jin does not originally bear the cost of the soldiers below joining the army to fight... This cost is shared by the Meng'an, Mouke and national military households below. If we lose money in the war, the Meng'an, Mouke, and national military families below will go bankrupt.
And this kind of "all people are soldiers" who prepare their own weapons, food, grass, and horses, and bear the cost of war. Isn't the biggest fear of losing money in war? They are all selling iron and steel to raise money for the war, and they also delay the production at home. No one is looking after the wife and children. If you don't pay attention, you will become a father... If you make a loss again, then you won't be able to bankrupt your family?
Why in history was the Jin Kingdom willing to negotiate peace with the Southern Song Dynasty? Even after Zhao Gou destroyed the Great Wall, he was still willing to abide by the peace treaty until the hated Wan Yanliang jumped out to destroy the peace? Isn't it because people like Yue Fei, Han Shizhong, and Wu Jie turned Jin Wushu's Jin soldiers into loss-making soldiers?
Unfortunately, in the end, the Dajin people were not very willing to serve as soldiers, and Wanyan Wushu was not good at it, so they had to use "signing military law" to force Han people to serve as soldiers...
Now the Golden Thief's East Route Army is near the break-even point. Previously, they were rushing south to rush for time and failed to grab it. Later, they were defeated by "Gao Qiu" several times, and the camp was full of wounded and sick, but they didn't grab it. To how much. Fortunately, Wanyan Zongwang was smart enough to capture Damingfu City and recover some of it, so the Jindong Route Army generally made a profit.
But whether the Dajin West Route Army can still make money after it is transferred to the East Route... That is really nonsense!
Because it’s already late March, and it’s almost the end of the month! It’s summer in April. By the time the Jinxi Route Army completed its deployment and Wanyan Wu Qingbu and Wanyan Xie also moved to Yanyun, it was probably already autumn.
And the summer is so hot, even if Wanyan Nianhan leads the army to the front line of Hebei, there will be no big battle... The Jin soldiers are afraid of the heat and need to escape the heat!
And in autumn, will the strength of the Song Army on the East Route further increase?
Therefore, using war to force peace and creating a peace plan that is greatly beneficial to the Jin Kingdom is also acceptable to the Boji Lies of the Jin Kingdom.
"Xiebao, did your father tell you the terms of the peace negotiation?" Wanyan Wu Qimai looked at Wanyan Xiebao and asked.
Wanyan Xiebao said with a smile: "I told you, what my father means is that the land on Yanshanfu Road cannot be divulged... If you want more coins, try to get him one million! Of course, this is because we can't win it." The conditions were only raised under the circumstances of Kaifeng Mansion. If we can capture Kaifeng Mansion, then we should first conquer Kaifeng Mansion!"
"Of course!"
"Kaifeng Mansion is very expensive!"
"Yes, being able to capture the Kaifeng Mansion and snatch back every inch of land in Huining is better than anything else!"
How do a bunch of Jurchen Bojilie know the meaning of "every inch of land is valuable"? They just heard about it and thought that there was gold everywhere in Kaifeng, and they wanted to "take every inch of land and gold" back to Huining... Huining is full of cottages and villages, and the population is sparsely populated. How to develop real estate?
Wanyan Wu Qimai asked everyone with a smile, "Then the bottom line for the peace talks is to cut Yanshan Mansion Road plus one million yuan per year?"
"One more thing has to be added!" Wanyan A'lu, Wanyan A'lu's beloved brother, gritted his teeth and said, "Killing the enemy is the only way to make peace!"
Alu added that he was sent to Huining by Wanyan Zongwang and Wanyan Chanmu to ask for help.
And his younger brother Alupu died because of Gao Qiu and Zhao Bupo. Of course he gritted his teeth with hatred and wanted to get rid of these two people!
Moreover, Wanyan Zongwang has already used counterintuitive tactics to deal with Gao Qiu and Zhao Bupo, and now he has to work even harder!
Wanyan Wu Qimai turned around and asked Xiao Zhonggong, the "Zhi Song Faction" present: "Is it possible to use counterintuitive tactics and peace talks to eradicate Gao Qiu and Zhao Bupo?"
Xiao Zhonggong nodded and said: "The officials of the Song Dynasty have always been worried about the warriors and the clan... This Gao Qiu is not only a warrior, but also a confidant of Zhao Ji, and he supports Zhao Huan. Zhao Kai will probably be killed soon, right? If we deduce this All these military disasters were caused by Gao Qiu and Zhao Bupo's indiscriminate provocations, which gave the Southern Dynasty monarchs and ministers an excuse to punish Gao Qiu and Zhao Bupo."
Wanyan Wu Qimai looked at Cai Songnian's father Cai Jing again. He has been working very hard to learn Jurchen dialect during this period, and now he can barely communicate with the Jurchen people.
Now seeing the look in his master's eyes, he hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, Gao Qiu was lucky to be close to him, but unexpectedly he kept it hidden. His ambition is not small! The officials of the Song Dynasty have figured this out and will get rid of him without any countermeasures. Gao Qiu's... He is still alive now because the heavenly soldiers have not retreated and he still needs generals.
If Your Majesty is willing to show some sincerity in negotiating peace, Gao Qiu and Zhao Bupo will undoubtedly die! "
"What sincerity?" Wu Qimai asked.
Cai Jing smiled and said: "Your Majesty can let me go back south with Lu Yihao...if your Majesty can trust me."
Wu Qimai smiled: "Of course I can trust you... Don't worry, I will take good care of your son!"
Cai Jing quickly bowed his head and said, "Thank you so much, Your Majesty!"
…
The strategy of killing Qiu Shi was a peaceful one, which seemed clever, but there was an omission that made the senior officials of the Kingdom of Jin unexpected. That is, in April of the first year of Jingkang, no one could kill Gao Qiu and Taiwei Gao. It's...because "Zhen Gaoqiu" is dead!
If you want to kill Gao Qiu now, you must first resurrect Gao Qiu!
And resurrection... Zhao Huan, who has experience in this area, is now standing in front of Gao Qiu's coffin, sighing.
Gao Qiu died on April 14th in Xuyi, the first county of Sizhou.
After Zhao Huan got the news, he immediately rushed from Yangzhou, where he was in charge, to Xuyi to see Gao Qiu on his last journey.
Also coming with Zhao Huan were Zhao Mingcheng, who had just become the palace envoy, his fifth brother Su Wang Zhao Shu, and his ninth brother Kang Wang Zhao Gou.
Zhao Huan sighed and said to the two Gao Yanei who were dressed in filial piety and filial piety: "Gao Dalang, Gao Erlang... now the officials are using Gao Taiwei's name to bluff gold thieves, so you must cooperate and don't The funeral was too grand.
Also, don’t announce this to the outside world right away, you still have to ask for an order first. "
This is really strange!
The two Gao Yanei were also speechless. Their father actually wanted to keep it secret after his death... Oh, it was not certain whether their father could officially die!
If the officials don't allow their father to die, then their father Gao Qiu will have to pretend to be alive - Taiwei Gao is really working hard! When he was alive, he also worked hard for the Cuju career of the Song Dynasty. Now that he is finally dead, he still has to pretend to be alive so that he can fight against the Jin Dynasty and protect Kaifeng for the Song Dynasty.
Apart from Gao Qiu, there is probably no other person who has been a minister since ancient times.
Zhao Huan sighed and turned back to the two brothers: "Which of you is willing to go to Liaodong? The ship is ready... go in the name of Captain Gao!"
