When the banquet was over, it was already dark.

Han Shizhong and Liang Hongyu came out of the city lord's mansion, and they walked forward on the street at will.

"Husband, do we want to listen to Master Zongze's words? Your majesty ordered me to wait for an offensive against Guan Shan, but Master Zongze stopped! I'm afraid it's wrong!" Liang Hongyu said in the wind and snow.

"We are only afraid that we can only listen to Master Zongze!" Han Shizhong said.

"Oh?" Liang Hongyu had a puzzled expression on her face.

"Master Zongze has been operating in the north for many years, and the northern army is under his command. His prestige is extremely high. Most generals will not violate his orders! What's more, besides Master Zongze, Wang Yan actually agrees. Negotiating peace! That Wang Yan is the leader of the Eight-character Army, the most famous figure in the rebel army in the world, and the Henan Million Rebel Army is headed by him! Both of them want to negotiate a peace, even if we go to war, we have no strength!" Han Shizhong smiled bitterly.

"However, now is the best chance to deal with Emperor Xuanwu, and it may also be the last chance! The battle cannot be delayed!" Liang Hongyu frowned.

"We are also helpless now! Our Han family army itself does not have many soldiers and horses! As for Zhang Jun, he has one hundred thousand troops, but his troops are all from the former rebels. Zong Ze and Wang Yan want to make peace, and he wants to fight. , I am afraid it may not be able to mobilize the soldiers and horses of his men!" Han Shizhong said.

"What the **** is Emperor Xuanwu going to do? Even if he delays us for a few months, it will not change the overall situation of the world! When the Jurchen army goes south, all the rebels and the two Huai soldiers arrive, they will still be a dead end!" Liang Hongyu said.

After Liang Hongyu finished speaking, Han Shizhong also fell into contemplation. After a while, Han Shizhong said fiercely, "Do you remember the information we got yesterday?"

Liang Hongyu whispered "Ah" and said, "I understand!"

Han Shizhong said, "I want to see Master Zongze immediately and tell me about this!"

Liang Hongyu nodded.

Right now, Han Shizhong and Liang Hongyu immediately moved towards the city lord's mansion again.

After arriving here, they reported and entered Zongze's room.

A candle was lit in Zongze's room at the moment, besides Zongze, Wang Yan was also here.

"Han Shizhong has seen adults!" Han Shizhong bowed and said.

"It turned out to be General Han, don't have to be polite!" Zong Ze smiled and said.

"My lord, we just got information yesterday, it's extremely important!" Han Shizhong stared at Zongze and said.

"Oh? What information?" Zong Ze said.

"When we first came to Guanshan, we heard that Emperor Xuanwu had smashed Xixia. We felt unbelievable at the time, so we sent people to investigate! Yesterday the talents we sent returned from Xixia. They said that Xixia is indeed in name! Ma Jiqiang almost surpassed Jurchen. It seems that this is beyond doubt! In addition, they said that they saw countless cavalry under Emperor Xuanwu heading north on the road. The number of those cavalry is almost sixty to seventy thousand! This is the first time that Song Liguo has so many cavalry in more than a hundred years! They are going north, even if they are coming for the Jurchens! It is very likely to deal with the two-way army of the Jurchens!" Han Shizhong said.

"There is such a thing?" Zong Ze was also slightly surprised.

"Old man, Emperor Xuanwu is very strong. If they really block the two-way army of the Jurchens, our action in Guanshan may not be successful! At that time, they are stronger and can calmly deal with us! You! Say yes?" Han Shizhong said.

"This..." Zong Ze frowned.

"Boss, I don't think we can negotiate with them! We must use force against them now! Also, if such important news can reach the ears of Jurchens, Jurchens will definitely be on guard!" Han Shi Loyalty.

"Han Shizhong, you are confused! We are Han Chinese, how can we help Jurchen?" Zong Ze said.

"But, for your Majesty, we can only do this! We alone are definitely not the opponent of Emperor Xuanwu, we can only rely on Jurchen now!" Han Shizhong said.

"Have you forgotten that thousands of people in the north are still in the slavery of Jurchens? Have you forgotten that the two supreme emperors are still being held by Jurchens? We can beware of Emperor Xuanwu, but we must not help Jurchens! What your Majesty said I never agree with the Jurchen union!" Zong Ze said.

"This..." Han Shizhong was stunned.

Han Shizhong is extremely loyal to Zhao Gou, and his personal relationship with Zhao Gou has been excellent in history. Qin Hui was so powerful that he demoted Han Shizhong and Han Shizhong became a general from a general, but Zhao Gou still often went to Han Shizhong's home to play chess and drink with Han Shizhong. Therefore, everything he thought was for Zhao Gou's sake.

"You can't talk about this anymore! I have decided, and we will wait for your majesty's decree!" Zong Ze said.

Han Shizhong nodded, and left now, not to mention.

Han Shizhong has left, only Zongze and Wang Yan are left in the room.

Zongze took out a letter from the volume on the table. The letter was not signed, only a piece of paper inside! Every word on this paper gives people a feeling like a sword carved out. This is exactly the letter Zhao Chen wrote to Zongze.

Zongze handed the letter to Wang Yan.

"Is this the letter from the west side?" Wang Yan said.

"Yes! I think what he said is right, the people are the most precious, the emperor is the light, and the land is second! Tens of millions of people in the Central Plains are in the enslavement of the Jurchens, and life is better than death! The two supreme emperors are both imprisoned I have suffered humiliation! As a citizen of the Song Dynasty, as a Han, how can I accept such a thing? Emperor Jianyan wanted to negotiate with the Jurchens, and he actually gave up the tens of millions of people in the Central Plains, his father, Brother, how can this be? Wang Yan, you know what, I have an unusual contradiction in my heart! I also understand that what Han Shizhong said is all right! Emperor Xuanwu led the army northward, there must be other purposes, the reason why he negotiated is only In order to stabilize us and delay us! In the future, after he cleans up the Jurchens, he will naturally deal with us! The reason why he sent Wang Shu here is just to give us an excuse! He must have already seen our temperament. , So I think we will definitely agree! And I did agree! I don’t know, I betrayed Emperor Jianyan? In the future, how do I face Emperor Jianyan? I am very painful! But I only now If you can do this, I will support whoever can beat Jurchen." Zong Ze's hand was pressed tightly on the table, his nails were already sinking into the table, and his face was abnormally pale!

He is a famous official through the ages, how can he fail to see the truth of Zhao Chen's intention, but he still did it!

In history, when Zongze was dying, he shouted "cross the river" three times. He wanted to cross the Yellow River and regain his homeland. This was the most important thing in his mind! Over the years, Zhao Gou's approach has disappointed him!

In fact, in two years, the General Staff Headquarters had already investigated the personality, morality, and ambitions of Zong Ze, Wang Yan, and others! Thousands of staff and intelligence personnel, through constant contact, testing, research, and analysis, all feel that Zong Ze and Wang Yan have a 90% chance of accepting the "agreement." Even if they know that the negotiation is only to delay the war, they will promise.

Sure enough, Zong Ze and Wang Yan both accepted this "conciliation"! The two of them accepted this "discussion". Without Zhao Gou's explicit instructions, the Guan-Shaan war situation will be delayed for three months or even longer!

"My lord, there is another sentence in this letter that says that the righteousness of the country is above the righteousness of the emperor and the ministers! The Jurchens are our enemies of life and death, killing us millions of Han people! How can we not report such hatred? Emperor Jianyan is single-minded? Negotiating with the Jurchens, this is...a country thief! If you hadn't persuaded you with all your heart, I would have voted for Emperor Xuanwu!" Wang Yan said.

"How will history judge us in the future? We betrayed Emperor Jianyan, but we are treacherous courtiers! We are sorry for the word'loyalty'! But I do not regret doing this! In the future, if Emperor Xuanwu really calls, I will kill myself Thanks to the world!" Zong Ze couldn't let go of the Confucian word "loyalty" in his heart. At this time, he just felt like a knife.

Wang Yan stood there blankly, without saying a word...

Yue Fei led 70,000 cavalry all the way north, and he had already arrived in Fangzhou and Danzhou on the fifth day of the first lunar month.

The Huanqing Army is stationed here!

The Huan Qing Army had already made preparations, and when Yue Fei arrived, they would go north together.

Liu Qi led 40,000 cavalrymen and Yue Fei's 70,000 cavalrymen heading north, while the 100,000 infantrymen of the Huanqing Army followed behind.

On the sixth day of the first month, they came to Yan'an Mansion.

They just stayed here for one night and then moved on.

On the seventh day of the first lunar month, they are galloping on the snowy field.

There was a heavy snowfall, and when it was noon, several figures appeared faintly in the distance.

Right now, Yue Fei immediately made people go to investigate.

After a while, the interrogating soldiers brought those people over!

Seeing those few people, Yue Fei was startled, these people were all Khitan people!

"General! They said they were invited by your majesty!" An interrogating soldier came to Yue Fei and said.

"Come here by your majesty's invitation?" Yue Fei was startled.

"This general, who is under Yeluyi column, is the son of Yelu Dashi! Come to visit His Majesty the Song Emperor at the order of his father!" A young Khitan man walked up and said.

"Son of Yelu Dashi?" Yue Fei suddenly remembered.

That day, the Liao Kingdom was destroyed, and the Emperor Yelu Yanxi of the Liao Kingdom was captured alive by the Wanyan Lou family from thousands of troops. The royal family of the Liao Kingdom was almost wiped out, but one person escaped! That person was called Yelu Dashi. This Yelu Dashi was originally the eighth grandson of Yelu Abaoji, the ancestor of the Liao Kingdom. He was the only Khitan royal champion recorded in Liao history! After that, Yelu Dashi was appointed as the Jiedu Envoy of the Liaoxing Army and the post of Yanjing left behind! After the rise of the Jurchens, the Liao army was vulnerable, but Yelu Dashi continued to resist.

Finally, when Yelu Yanxi was captured, Yelu Dashi led a 40,000 Liao army and hundreds of thousands of Khitan people all the way to the west, into the vast desert and grassland.

If history has not changed, Yelv Dashi will eventually establish Xiliao! The size of the land of Xiliao was not under the original Liao. It was not until the rise of Genghis Khan that Xiliao was destroyed.

Yelu Dashi is also a rare talented figure in this era!

In the past two years, the Military Aircraft Department and the Staff Headquarters have also sent people to the west and north to try to find the Yelu Dashi, but there has been no news! I didn't expect Yelu Dashi to send his son here!
