When Kong Zheng decided to pay homage to Su Yonglin again, Su Yonglin had already led the first wave of Northern Expedition Army to advance towards Yan Yun.

He had no time to deal with more things and kept it the same for the time being. What he needed to do now is to go north to Yanyun as soon as possible, take down Zhongdu, give the Jin Kingdom a fatal blow, and completely block their way into the pass.

Although Su Jue, the key strategic location of Yuguan, is controlled by Su Jue, most of the land of Yanyun is still under the control of Jin officials, and more troops are needed to attack and cover to reverse the situation.

Of course, what is more important is to support the Soviet Union in time and avoid the Liaodong Army of the Jin Kingdom entering the pass. In that case, it will be a great test for the army that the Restoration Army has just completed its expansion.

The army of Liaodong in the Jin Dynasty was to put down the Khitan rebellion. It had military achievements and combat effectiveness, and was absolutely not weak. It was not easy for Su Jue to defend Yuguan under their attack - if they made up their minds to seize Yuguan.

At the strategic meeting, Su Yonglin believed that the Jin and Liaodong Army had a great possibility of advancing Yuguan.

Now, not only does the Restoration Army need Yuguan as an important town to resist the entry of the Jin army and a forward base to advance to Liaodong, but the Jin people also need Yuguan as an important town to resist the further entry of the Restoration Army into Liaodong.

Therefore, the battle between Yuguan is highly likely to be very fierce.

So Su Yonglin led three armies to the north before the main force of the army was rectified.

At the stall where Kaifeng City was captured by Zhang Yuejing, he led his army to Hejian Prefecture. After replenishing it with Hejian Prefecture, he quickly passed Waqiao Pass and entered the Yanyun Land.

This homeland that has been ruled by aliens for hundreds of years has long been no longer visible. Many places have clearly revealed a Hu Feng. For Su Yonglin, who first came to Yanyun Land, it is still a bit novel.

Of course, Su Yonglin didn't come here to travel.

After leading his army into Yanyun, Su Yonglin ordered his troops to be divided into three groups.

Han Jinggui led the Tianxiong army to attack the northwest, targeting the Xijing Datong Prefecture of the Jin Dynasty.

Wei Kexian led the Xuanjia Army to attack the northeast, with the goal of supporting Su Jue.

Su Yonglin personally led Li Xiao and Beiwei's army to kill Zhongdu, adding weight to the attack - he carried Wanyan Liang's head with his army, intending to use Wanyan Liang's head as the last straw that broke the camel's back.

He believes that the reason why Zhongdu persists until now is mainly because they have fantasies and do not believe that Wanyan Liang is dead.

So as long as they believe that Wanyan Liang is dead, even if the city is not broken immediately, it will greatly shake the determination of the people in the city to defend the city, which is a major benefit to the attack of the Restoration Army.

In mid-April, Su Yonglin led his army to the foot of Zhongdu City on the road that Sun Ziyi took.

He promoted the might of the Restoration Army and his reputation as Su Yonglin, and won the crossroads of the Han people in Yanyun. People welcomed the royal army of the Restoration Army by eating pots of mud and drinking, and seemed to have great expectations for the Restoration Army.

When Su Yonglin led 30,000 Beiwei troops to the foot of Zhongdu City, he brought even greater deterrence and psychological blows to Zhongdu City.

Especially when Su Yonglin raised his own banner and let the Jin people in Zhongdu know that Su Yonglin, the ruler of the Restoration Army, personally led his troops, the Jin army on the top of the city was really panicked.

Under his own banner and the battle flags of the twenty Jin army captured, Su Yonglin led an elite guard team around the city and declared his courage. At the same time, he wrote a letter and shot it into the city, allowing the rulers of the Jin Kingdom in the city to carefully weigh the pros and cons.

The battle flag of the Jin army going south was still very conspicuous. The Jin officials with some identity also knew the military number of the army going south.

Now that they saw the military flags of the army heading south demonstrating around the city in the hands of the Restoration Army, they were afraid first. The truth was self-evident and the truth spread quickly in the city.

Within half a day, the city defense army basically knew the news that the southern expedition army was wiped out.

As a result, the spirit of the Zhongdu defenders was shocked, and the spirit of the army was shaken. Many soldiers were mentally collapsed and were extremely afraid of war. They were afraid of war and tried every means to leave the front line and go to a safe place.

The officers of the small army who insisted on resisting on the city wall were very upset about this and took a lot of effort to barely quell the riots on the city wall.

Despite this, the morale of the Jin army defending the city had declined greatly.

Su Yonglin's letter was soon obtained by Pusanhutu and Tu Shanzhen. They snatched the letter before Empress Dowager Tu Shan and the Crown Prince.

The content of this letter is very simple, which is to tell the rulers of the Jin Kingdom in the city to open the city and surrender as soon as possible, give up unnecessary resistance, and not only increase casualties.

And the most important thing is to give up resistance and actively surrender and get better treatment and survive.

The longer the resistance, the greater the casualties caused to the Restoration Army, the more the Jin royal family and bureaucrats would face the end of being killed when the city was broken.

If they decide to resist, they will calculate based on the loss of the Restoration Army, and kill a Jin soldier in battle, they will have to kill a Jin man to pay their lives.

Moreover, they first killed the royal family of the Jin Kingdom. After killing the royal family, they killed the families of ministers and ministers, followed by ordinary civil and military officials and their families, relatives, and finally the lower-level officials and ordinary Jurchens.

Anyway, the number of casualties of the Restoration Army would require a lot of powerful people and Jurchens to pay for their lives, killing them from top to bottom until they were completely killed. Even if the entire Jin Dynasty ruling class was eliminated, it would not matter.

Finally, Su Yonglin’s friendly tips—

Wanyan Liang's head is in my hands. If you need it, I will send his head into the city to show you so that you can dispel the last bit of delusion and stop thinking about what is there or not.

Pusanhutu and Tu Shanzhen finished reading Su Yonglin's handwritten letter. Look at me, I look at you, and I stood there and didn't know what to do.

Then they handed the letter to Empress Dowager Tu Shan and Crown Prince Wanyan Guangying. After reading Su Yonglin's handwritten letter nervously, they couldn't help but cry on the spot.

As soon as she cried, Wanyan Guangying also cried out.

How could Queen Mother Tu Dan, who had lived in poverty for many years, think that she would face such a thing now?

This well-protected woman never thought that one day she would face a situation where the country was destroyed and the family was destroyed. The people she could rely on would either die or be unreliable at all. She felt that she was so helpless and so sad.

The crying of the grandparents and grandchildren was useless.

The content of Su Yonglin's handwritten letter quickly spread throughout the court. Everyone knew that Emperor Wanyan Liang's head was in the hands of Su Yonglin, the leader of the thief army outside the city. As long as they were willing, they could see the emperor's head.

When things got to this point, most people actually believed that the emperor was dead, the army was defeated, and the Great Jin Kingdom was over.

But there are still some deadly hard elements who are still unwilling to believe it.

For example, the two thousand small troops left by Wanyan Liang, some of Wanyan Liang's hard-core confidants, some civil and military officials with strong self-esteem, or some old scholars with a stubborn mind.

For various reasons and various considerations, they were always unwilling to believe that this matter was true and unwilling to admit that the real pill of the Dajin Kingdom was.

They collectively shouted that unless Su Yonglin put Wanyan Liang's head in front of them, they would firmly not believe that Wanyan Liang was dead. This was definitely the strategy of the thief army!

There is actually nothing to say about these people. No one with a little rational person will no longer be with them. Most people begin to think about more practical issues.

Should I surrender voluntarily?

This is the most serious issue.

Of course they were unwilling to surrender, but since Su Yonglin had offered the conditions, they had no choice but to think.

If you take the initiative to surrender, you will survive. If you don’t surrender, you will die. Su Yonglin will kill you if you say it, and will never go back on his word.

But if you really have to surrender voluntarily, you would be too weak.

There are also troops from the Great Jin Kingdom in Guanzhong, Liaodong. The troops from Liaodong are about to come to support the capital, so they surrender like this?

After surrender, life and death are determined by Su Yonglin, and he is no longer able to do so. This is a bit difficult for the powerful and wealthy Jin Kingdom who are used to being arrogant.

So they are still hesitating.

This round of deterrence was not very effective, and the result was to divide the Jin court into a hard-working resistance faction and a conservative and cautious faction. Both sides had their own opinions and had different views on continuing to resist and simply surrendering.
