Su Yonglin did not expect Sun Tzu Yi's straightforward and complete surrender.
Can I also shake my tiger body and make heroes kneel down and sing "Conquer"?
This rather absurd scene almost made Su Yonglin think that he had become the protagonist of the new world.
But after thinking about it, he realized that all this was not ridiculous, mainly because he was too strong.
He defeated a powerful enemy that no one thought he could defeat, so he naturally became stronger than the powerful enemy in the eyes of everyone.
He was so strong that people like Sun Tzu Yi sincerely admired him and wanted to surrender to him.
So he quickly stepped forward and helped Sun Ziyi up.
"Why is General Sun like this? You and I are comrades-in-arms and colleagues. We should support each other. Why do we need to do such a thing?"
Sun Ziyi looked at Su Yonglin, his face flushed with excitement, his eyes filled with admiration.
"Sun knows that he is not capable enough to lead his brothers to survive the attack of the gold thieves' army. The only one who can do this is the general. Without the help of the general, Sun and his soldiers would have been buried in Hebei.
Now that the general has defeated the golden thief's cavalry, his prestige is great. The whole Hebei generals will only follow the general's lead. When the general gives an order, heroes and righteous soldiers will surely respond in groups. They will all obey the general's order, and Sun is no exception. "
Su Yonglin held Sun Ziyi's hand.
"General Sun has supported me all the way. Even if we don't, we are still friendly forces."
"The general's words are wrong."
Sun Tzu Yi made up his mind and said: "The general defeated the Jin army's 20,000 cavalry, which will definitely shock the Jin Kingdom's government and the public. The next time it comes, it will definitely be the main force of the Jin Kingdom. If we don't unite closely, we will surely kill him." Broken.
In the whole of Hebei, there was no one who could command the heroes and make them bow before this battle. After this battle, there was only the general! Sun knew that he was not capable enough to hinder the army and the anti-gold cause, so he only wanted to obey orders under the general's tent! "
Su Yonglin was silent for a while with a serious face and thought seriously.
Naturally, he had not expected Sun Tzu Yi to have such an idea, and he had never had similar considerations before.
Because he believed that it was meaningless for him to occupy more places before defeating Wan Yanliang. Under the deterrence of Wan Yanliang's army, these places could be abandoned at any time.
Except for a few state capitals in Shandong that he had worked hard to manage, the entire Hebei was within the scope of his abandonment. He did not intend to let his elite troops fight to the end in Hebei.
He planned to use this to avoid Wan Yanliang's too sharp military front and carry out a series of resistance.
Through multiple, uninterrupted small-scale battles, Wan Yanliang's strength was continuously consumed, his army was exhausted, his supply lines were lengthened, and his supply lines were constantly threatened, providing more room for movement for the civil strife in Jin and the Khitan Uprising.
At the same time, Wan Yanliang can help him clean up Hebei.
Once Wanyan Liang decided to go south, it would inevitably trigger a split within Jinting and ignite the conflicts within Jinting that Wanyanliang had suppressed for a long time.
Then it's probably time for that guy Wan Yanyong to appear.
Su Yonglin didn't know where Wanyanyong was now, nor what Wanyanyong would do, but Wanyanyong was undoubtedly a more difficult enemy than Wanyanliang.
Unless he cannot control the existing territory and national power of the Jin Kingdom and the Jin Kingdom degenerates from the largest power in East Asia to a local political power, then Wan Yanyong will not be able to give full play to his abilities.
But when it comes to that, Su Yonglin feels that Wanyanyong is not such a difficult enemy.
As for the Khitan Uprising, it was also inevitable.
He has turned Hebei upside down. How can Wan Yanliang not recruit troops from the Khitan tribe?
Once conscription is forced, will the long-suppressed anger of the Khitan people not explode?
Not everyone believes in the afterlife theory like the lower class people in India, at least the Khitans don't believe it. If Wan Yanliang forces conscription, then a major uprising of the Khitans is imminent.
There were two major rebel groups, one in the south and one in the north. Wan Yanliang had to divide his troops into two groups to put down the rebellion. The most taboo thing about using troops in a country was to fight on two fronts. It was too difficult to win.
In that case, Kim would make many mistakes that could lead to its own destruction.
Therefore, he doesn't care how many "popular hearts" he can get in Hebei. It is the established strategy to share all the etiquette he gets in exchange for obedience.
Sun Tzu Yi's complete surrender was unexpected.
Of course it's not a problem if you don't accept it.
But once Su Yonglin accepted it, at least in name, Sun Ziyi would lose the qualification to stand as a tripartite with Su Yonglin and Zhao Kaishan.
In this way, the future controller of the Central Plains region will be decided between Su Yonglin and Zhao Kaishan, and Su Yonglin is fully confident in this.
Zhao Kaishan, a great smart man, knew exactly how much he weighed. Apart from being used as a buffer and pecking at each other with Southern Song Dynasty chickens, it had no value at all.
It is much easier to destroy him than to destroy the Kingdom of Jin.
Su Yonglin didn't know whether Sun Ziyi knew this, but at the moment, he didn't think Sun Ziyi didn't know.
He was more inclined to Sun Ziyi, who realized the limits of his abilities and the terror of the Kingdom of Jin. He also realized that Su Yonglin was the key figure who could lead everyone to survive. In order to survive, he made such a choice.
He is a smart man.
In fact, this is also true.
After learning that Su Yonglin defeated Wanyan Alin, Sun Ziyi recalled what Xin Qiji had said before and weighed the pros and cons.
If he continued to be independent, Wan Yanliang would definitely kill him, and he obviously couldn't compete with Wan Yanliang alone.
And Zhao Kaishan and him had already publicly broken up. Zhao Kaishan would certainly not be his solid backing, and would even applaud him when he saw his misfortune.
The only one who was friendly with him and even had strong strength was Su Yonglin, and only Su Yonglin was his ally.
But the alliance relationship is not very strong.
Su Yonglin saved him from fire and water, which can be seen as his personal moral level is very high, but his moral level will also be limited by the actual situation. Su Yonglin does not have the obligation to save him all the time.
If he continues to be independent and if Wan Yanliang continues to suffer when Wan Yanliang goes south, it's hard to say whether anyone will come to rescue him.
Not to mention that this huge defeat has made many people doubt his ability, become disloyal to him, and have the idea of leaving his team to find another way out. Instead of watching his own power fall apart, it is better to simply invest in Su Yonglin. Under his command.
In this way, he can merge with Su Yonglin based on his existing strength, strive for a relatively high status, and maximize his own interests.
At the same time, he can also get the protection of Su Yonglin, a strong man with extremely strong military capabilities.
This is undoubtedly the best result he can get under the current situation.
Apart from that, he couldn't think of any better results he could have had.
So he looked at Su Yonglin expectantly, hoping to hear the words he wanted to hear from Su Yonglin's mouth.
Of course, Su Yonglin did not disappoint him.
"General Sun trusts me and entrusts me with the future. How dare I not respond to your trust? I will shoulder the heavy responsibility of Hebei and even the entire Central Plains, and I will never let General Sun down!"
Su Yonglin held Sun Ziyi's hand tightly.
Sun Tzu Yi was determined and very happy.
"That's great! Sun has met the general!"
Sun Tzu Yi took the lead in saluting Su Yonglin, and then a group of generals from the Shenwu Army around him also saluted Su Yonglin.
In public, two of the three main forces of the Liberation Army successfully completed the merger, and a new chapter in history began.
Later, on Sun Ziyi's suggestion, Su Yonglin decided to honor Zhao Kaishan's previous promise, calling himself the General Manager of Hebei, and bringing Hebei East Road and Hebei West Road under his control.
Although he has not yet captured all of Hebei, it is conceivable that Hebei is already within his grasp.
Su Yonglin quickly made military plans for the Eastern Expedition and the Northern Expedition, planning to capture the entire Hebei region before Wanyan Liang went south, to intimidate Zhongdu, build a larger army, and force Wanyan Liang to make bigger mistakes.
But before that, what he wanted to know more was what happened to the defeated troops of the Jin Army and their coach.
What happened to Wanyan Alin?
Su Yonglin didn't know that Wanyan Alin was already dead.
