Regarding this point, Su Yonglin agreed and did not object.
Because that's the truth.
"I never think that the military force of the Jin Kingdom has been weakened to the point that it cannot maintain the existence of the Jin Kingdom. On the contrary, I think that they are far from weakened to that point."
When Su Yonglin said this, Yelu Chenghui became even more confused.
"Then why did the general rise up at this time?"
"Because I live in the present. If I had been born a few decades later, it would have been easier to rebel than it is now. At least the Jin people's military force would have been weaker than it is now."
Su Yonglin laughed, but Yelu Chenghui was stunned.
After laughing for a while, Su Yonglin waved his hand.
"It's a joke, because the military force of the Jin Kingdom has indeed weakened. From the time when it swept across the two great kingdoms of Liao and Song Dynasty, it claimed to be invincible, but now it has been completely annihilated by our group of rebels who have just started their uprising for five months. At this point, don’t you think their force has not weakened?”
Yelu Chenghui thought about it and found that it was indeed the case.
"It is true that as the general said, the military force of the Jin Kingdom has indeed weakened, but the general also said that they are not so weak that they cannot maintain the Jin Kingdom. It can even be said that they are still the stronger side compared to the Song Kingdom. .”
"Yes, the Kingdom of Jin can still survive without the intervention of strong external forces, but what if there is the intervention of strong external forces?"
Su Yonglin looked at Yelu Chenghui.
Yelu Chenghui also looked at Su Yonglin.
"Could the so-called powerful external force be the general?"
"Can't I do it? You are my prisoner. The entire Shandong Province will be occupied by the Liberation Army. The Liberation Army is no longer weak."
"Compared to the Kingdom of Jin, it is not enough."
Yelu Chenghui shook his head decisively: "The Liberation Army only occupied Shandong, but the Jin Kingdom also had the entire Central Plains, Yanyun Land, and Liaodong. It has a huge territory and strong national power. The emperor gave an order to mobilize the whole country, four to five million An army is not difficult.
At that time, facing the rapid and fierce offensive of hundreds of thousands of Jin Kingdom's troops, would the general still dare to say that he could win? That is an army of hundreds of thousands, and there will be tens of thousands of elite cavalry. Can the general fight against it? Just relying on the undefensible terrain of Shandong? "
Su Yonglin shook his head.
"At the beginning, Yuan Shao led his army from Hebei to march southward. His strength was several times greater than that of Cao Cao. Not many people thought that Cao Cao could win, but Cao Cao did win. Later, he pushed back all the way and captured Hebei, becoming the strongest prince.
The same thing happened later, when Cao Cao sent his army south to Jingzhou and Jiangdong. No one thought that Sun Quan and Liu Bei could win, but they still won, and established Sun Wu and Ji Han respectively to stand in opposition to the Central Plains. "
Yelu Chenghui doesn't think so.
"That's an example, not enough to illustrate the general trend. Since ancient times, those with more troops have the advantage, and those with fewer troops are in danger. The victory of Cao Cao and Sun Liu was accidental, and it is not enough to be a rule. Does the general think that the weak defeat the strong is a very important thing? Easy thing?"
"But this at least shows that victory is not guaranteed by having more troops."
Su Yonglin said: "At the beginning, Qin's Fu Jian sent hundreds of thousands of troops to the south, and Jin used 80,000 northern soldiers to fight against them and win. Isn't it the same? Having more troops does not necessarily give them an advantage. Sometimes internal disputes can outweigh the enemy's. Even scarier."
"Cao Cao has people who are harmonious and talented, Sun Liu and Jin have people who are harmonious and have good geographical location. What does a general have?"
Yelu Chenghui asked Su Yonglin.
Su Yonglin closed his eyes and thought for a while.
"Except for not having the right location, I have everything else."
"How can I see it?"
Yelu Chenghui asked: "Regardless of talents, people, nature and time, generals all have it? Not necessarily?"
"Is not it?"
Su Yonglin said: "Wan Yanliang massacred the emperor's relatives and relatives on a large scale. He was a man of killing, and the world was shocked. People in the world were indeed afraid of him, but when they were afraid, they were angry. He killed so cruelly, who could Will it fall on you after you know it?
Everyone is so afraid, everyone is so frightened, so who can devote all their strength and loyalty to him at all costs? Just like you, when something happens, you don't report it as soon as possible, but try every means to conceal it, which gradually contributes to the victory of the Liberation Army. Isn't this a reflection of the loss of human harmony? "
Su Yonglin's words made Yelu Chenghui a little depressed. He lowered his head and said nothing, which was regarded as acquiescing to this matter.
This matter is indeed embarrassing. In order to survive, they concealed all kinds of information from Wan Yanliang, thinking that they could solve it themselves, but now they are reduced to prisoners.
When Su Yonglin talked about it, Yelv Chenghui was also speechless.
So Su Yonglin's argument becomes more tenable.
"He cannot unite his subordinates to suppress resistance, but the rebels can unite to face the tyranny. This is the reason why I can have harmony."
Su Yonglin continued: "Let's talk about the weather. In recent years, locust plagues, floods, and droughts have been constant, with refugees everywhere and starving to death. At this time, Wan Yanliang not only refused to provide relief, but also continued to expropriate and expropriate the land, forcing the people to have no way to survive. .
The people have no way to survive and don't want to starve to death, so they can only rebel. I don't need to incite them. They are my inexhaustible source of troops. Wan Yanliang can't use them, but I can. Isn't this the right time? ? "
Yelu Chenghui still didn't speak, which was equivalent to acquiescence.
"Is there anything else you can say?"
After Su Yonglin finished speaking, he looked at Yelu Chenghui.
Yelu Chenghui was silent for a moment and shook his head silently.
"Everything the general said is true, I have nothing to say, but I still don't think the general can defeat the main force of the Jin Kingdom. If the general cannot defeat the main force of the Jin Kingdom, then everything is empty talk. Unless the general defeats the main force of the Jin Kingdom, there is much to be done. "
"Of course I know that if we can't defeat the main force of the Jin Kingdom, everything will be empty talk."
"So how does the general plan to defeat the main force of the Jin Kingdom?"
Yelu Chenghui raised his head and looked at Su Yonglin: "The emperor of the Jin Kingdom gave an order, and the soldiers from the Central Plains, Yanyun, and Liaodong immediately gathered. When the officials from various places were ordered, they immediately issued signatures to join the army. In a short time, hundreds of thousands of troops could be obtained. How will the general respond?"
Su Yonglin smiled.
"Hundreds of thousands of troops? How many real female soldiers are there among them who can actually be used in battlefield battles? Most of them are just Han Chinese men with temporary certificates. What is their combat effectiveness? I have fought with them, and you have signed them. What do they have? Don’t you and I still know about combat effectiveness?”
Yelu Chenghui was a little embarrassed.
"Even if it is just a powerful force, it is not something that a general can resist. As long as hundreds of thousands of sign troops exist, they have extremely terrifying combat power. No matter how brave the general is, can one be as good as ten?"
"Why do you think I will just wait here for Wan Yanliang to beat me?"
Under Yelu Chenghui's surprised gaze, Su Yonglin stretched out his hand and pointed to the north: "He doesn't need to come, I'll go first."
"past?"
Yelu Chenghui felt that Su Yonglin was telling a joke, so he actually laughed out loud and said with a smile: "Does the general plan to use only 20,000 to 30,000 troops to march north to Zhongdu and destroy the Kingdom of Jin? Are the soldiers under the general's command not heavenly soldiers and generals, powerful and invulnerable?"
If the general's soldiers are all heavenly soldiers and heavenly generals, not to mention the Kingdom of Jin, the Kingdom of Song, the Kingdom of Xia and the Kingdom of Dali combined will be far from the general's opponent. The general can dominate the world without any scruples! "
"Who said I only have 20,000 to 30,000 troops for the Northern Expedition? Who said I only have 20,000 to 30,000 troops for the Northern Expedition? And when did I say I wanted to go for the Northern Expedition?"
"ah?"
Yelu Chenghui was even more confused: "What is the general saying? Why can't I understand?"
"How do you think the Liberation Army developed to this point? From scratch, from more than 10,000 people to nearly 200,000 people. What did it rely on? It was the oppression brought about by the tyranny of the Jin Kingdom!"
Su Yonglin shook his head: "You don't understand. You don't know that when people are afraid of Jin Ting, they also hate Jin Ting. You don't know how much those people who are superficially respectful want Wan Yanliang to die. You don't know that our army How many people can I encourage to rebel with me?
I don't want anything. I just want them to listen to my orders and raise troops to rebel with me. As long as they are willing to raise troops to rebel, they can become officials, county magistrates, governors, high officials and dignitaries. As long as they rebel with me, they can get everything.
When I pass ten thousand people, every time I conquer a county, more people will follow me. The resistance will grow bigger and bigger like a snowball, and there will be more and more people. In the end, there will be an extremely powerful wave of resistance! "
