Chapter 480 New strategic checks and balances for the Kingdom of Jin

Wanyan Zongpan was obviously still a little confused, and Zong Wang continued: "There were quite a few southerners in the Song Dynasty, such as people like Qin Hui. They were promoting the New Agricultural Policy in full swing in the north, but they had a lot of fertile land in the south."

"You mean that southern officials like Qin Hui are unwilling to push the New Agricultural Policy to the south?"

"I don't know whether Qin Hui himself is willing, but at least a considerable number of southern officials are not willing."

"Then will the Zhao Guan family kill all the opponents like before?"

Zong Wang smiled and said: "Dealing with the south is much more difficult than dealing with the north."

"Why is this?"

"Because it is further away from Bianjing, if you are not careful, a confrontation between the north and the south will form within the Song Dynasty."

Only then did Wanyan Zongpan fully understand what Zong Wang said about intensifying internal conflicts in the Song Dynasty and destroying the anti-golden united front within the Song Dynasty.

Zong Wang continued: "Once the south thinks that the Song Dynasty wants to pay taxes, many officials will definitely stand up and oppose it, hoping to negotiate peace with us."

Zong Pan said: "At this time, after negotiating with the Song Dynasty, our envoy agreed to negotiate peace, but must we negotiate business and sign a long-term peace agreement like during the Liao and Song Dynasties?"

"That's right."

In fact, Zong Wang still had something to say. If he didn't fight this time, the people of Song Dynasty would definitely think that the Jin Kingdom was really the same as the Liao Kingdom.

In this way, the Song Dynasty's peace faction could rise again.

Let the people of Song Dynasty bathe in what they think is peace. Within a few years, the group will be numbed by peace and disarmed.

This kind of thing has been verified as early as the Liao and Song Dynasties.

Wanyan Zongwang just wanted to use a method of strategic deception to make the Song people think again that long-term peace had arrived.

Loosening from within, split and disintegrated the Song Dynasty's re-assembled anti-Jin united front.

In fact, in the official history, Jin Wushu used Qin Hui to split the Song Dynasty's internal Northern Expedition. After Yue Fei's death, the vested interests within the Southern Song Dynasty breathed a sigh of relief, and most people were unwilling to spend their own money to recover the so-called Central Plains.

And here, Zong Wang's skills were obviously more skillful than the spies sent by Jin Wushu.

First, the army was deployed to create the fifth comprehensive crisis of the Song and Jin Dynasties, making everyone think that the fifth war of the Song and Jin Dynasties was imminent.

Then spread rumors that the imperial court would pay taxes and divide the north and the south.

Let’s discuss peace again.

And there is another hidden intention of Zong Wang.

Taking this opportunity, he gathered most of the elites of the Jin Kingdom and Yan Yun, and then wrote a memorial to establish Yanjing as Nanjing. He took the opportunity to prepare for the southward shift of the Jin Kingdom's center of power and promote the Sinicization and restructuring of the Jin Kingdom's internal structure.

In this way, Zong Han's power can be further weakened.

It can be said that it kills two birds with one stone, both internally and externally.

When it comes to political and strategic fraud, there is really no one in the Jin Kingdom who can compare to Zong Wang.

Zong Pan, who was sitting opposite him, was still too young.

However, the situation is always stronger than the person.

Just when Zong Wang thought that the overall situation was under his control, the military report from Liaoyang dropped a huge stone on his arranged chess move.

"Commander, there is an urgent military report from Liaoyang!"

Wanyanjing walked in quickly.

"Liaoyang?" Zong Wang was stunned for a moment. Liaoyang was in the hinterland of the Jin Kingdom. How could there be an emergency military report?

"What's going on?" Zong Wang immediately took the military report, took a glance at it, and frowned.

After reading it, my face turned pale.

Zong Pan asked: "What's wrong?"

"The Song army captured Fuzhou."

"Fuzhou?" Zong Pan was confused, where is Fuzhou?

He searched hard for memories in his mind.

"Fuzhou, the southernmost part of Liaoyang Prefecture."

Zong Pan's face hardened: "Fuzhou!"

"That's right, Fuzhou!"

"How many Song troops are coming?"

Zong Wang shook his head: "We can't be sure at the moment."

At the beginning of the sixth year of Jingkang, the Kingdom of Jin thought that it could carry out strategic deception against the Song Dynasty.

But what the Kingdom of Jin did not expect was that the Song army actually reached the hinterland.

Han Shizhong undoubtedly played a crucial step in the entire chess game.

What impact does this have on Zong Wang’s strategy?

This impact is really not small.

The Kingdom of Jin gathered most of its elites in the Yanyun and Hebei areas, and prepared their troops vigorously, showing the overwhelming potential of Mount Tai against the Song Dynasty.

As a result, Liaoyang Mansion is now empty of troops.

The Song army suddenly reached the rear, and the most important thing is that no one knows how many troops the Song army has come.

Zong Pan said: "How did the Song army get to Fuzhou?"

Zong Wang said: "The only way to go by sea is from Dengzhou."

"In this case, the Song army must be small in number."

"How did you know that the Song Army didn't have a steady stream of people coming over at this time?"

The scene fell into dead silence.

After a while, Zong Pan asked: "Now we should immediately withdraw some troops and dispatch them to Liaoyang Mansion."

Zong Wang asked: "How much will be withdrawn?"

Zongpan couldn't answer.

Zong Wang then said: "Stabilize the situation first. We cannot throw ourselves into disarray as soon as the enemy comes. As long as our army gathers in Zhending and Hejian, there will be panic within the Song Dynasty."

"What about Liaoyang?"

"Let Zongfu bear it first."

"Zong Fu doesn't have many troops in his hands. If he can't withstand it..."

"Liu Yanzong."

"The official is here."

Zong Wang said: "You pay close attention to the developments in Liaoyang Mansion and report to me at any time if there is any news."

"yes!"

Zong Pan thought for a while and said: "Let's transfer some of them. The Song Army may not know that we have transferred some people."

Zong Wang said: "Calm down first, there are also divisions within the Song Dynasty."

On the fifth day of March, Zhao Ning received a military report from Dengzhou.

"Okay!" Zhao Ning walked to the map excitedly, "Han Shizhong did not disappoint me!"

"Your Majesty!" At this time, Wang Huaiji said at the door, "Jie Qian is back, and he said he wants to meet the Holy Spirit."

"Announce! Announce quickly!"

Xie Qian walked quickly to Wende Hall and walked in.

"I see your Majesty."

"Quickly excuse me and tell me, has Gao Li agreed?"

"The King of Goryeo really agreed, and even the first batch of grain was shipped to the capital."

"Okay!" Zhao Ning became even more excited.

Finally, a sharp sword was placed at the doorstep of the Kingdom of Jin!

Now it’s your turn, Jin Guo, to be restless!

"How many people did Goryeo send out?"

"Twenty thousand people are being transported to the capital city one after another." Jie Qian hesitated, "But..."

"But what?"

"The King of Goryeo hopes to have unimpeded trade in the Myeongju area."

"That's right! He can do business however he wants! As long as he can continue to transport food to the capital city!"

"Your Majesty, don't worry. I have all negotiated with him. But when the Jin people find out, will they send troops to Goryeo?"

"Definitely!"

"Then Korea may stop providing food for us."

"Don't be afraid, we can make up for it in Dengzhou." Zhao Ning's mind was spinning rapidly, "In the trade between the two countries, we can quickly benefit the pro-Song faction of Korea. Korea will not completely surrender to the Jin Kingdom immediately. I

I don’t expect Goryeo to severely damage the Jin Kingdom. As long as we burn the front line to Liaodong, my intention has been achieved!"

The next day, the headline of the "Tokyo Daily" newspaper read: The Song Dynasty's 200,000-strong army landed in Liaodong, regained Fuzhou, and directed its troops towards Liaoyang.

The writing style of "Tokyo Daily" is relatively subtle, while the writing style of "Tokyo Express" is more romantic: Han Shizhong's army of 200,000 landed in Liaodong, captured Liaoyang Prefecture within a month, and directed his troops towards Shenzhou!

As for the "Tokyo Evening News", it immediately followed suit: Since it has reached the enemy's hinterland, the imperial court should continue to increase its troops in Liaodong and make a northern expedition to destroy the Jin Kingdom.
