At this moment in Zhao Chen's courtyard, Zhao Chen is recounting the past with Li Ruoshui, Wang De and others!

Zhao Chen was very happy. He thought he would never see the two people in front of him again, but he didn't expect to meet them in Tongguan! These two people are ministers who really support them. With them, their strength can be said to have increased a lot! Although there are still a few big cats and kittens beside him, he feels much safer psychologically!

"Master Li, General Wang, you all come all the way west, tell me, will Jurchen hit Tongguan?" Zhao Chen also asked the same question at this moment.

"This..." Li Ruoshui hesitated for a while, and said: "It's hard to tell, we don't know if they will come to Tongguan! Logically speaking, maybe not? The Jurchens have been fighting since last fall. It has been more than half a year now. They have been fighting for half a year, and the soldiers are also very tired. I think they also need a truce for a while to restore the vitality of the army!"

"The Jurchen soldiers are indeed not as good as before!" Wang De also nodded.

At this moment Li Gang, Yue Fei and others were also here. Li Gang thought for a moment and said, "His Royal Highness, everyone, I think the Jurchens will definitely hit Tongguan! And they will march very fast, and they will soon come under Tongguan. !"

Li Ruoshui was taken aback, and said, "How do you know?"

Li Gang smiled and said: "The Jurchens invaded southward, aiming to destroy the country! Kaifeng city has been broken, and your Majesty and the Supreme Emperor are captured, and most of the royal children are also captured! Unfortunately, His Royal Highness escaped, so that the Jurchens destroyed the country. The plan was not completed. They must continue to attack and destroy His Royal Highness! This is one of them! In addition, the Chuan Guo Yu Xi was also brought to Tongguan by His Highness. This Chuan Guo Yu Xi was extremely important, and there was no such thing as the Chuan Guo Yu Xi. The Dajin established by the Jurchens has always been a barbarian, and it has never been possible to get the support of scholars from the north of the Yellow River! Even if it is to pass on the jade seal of the country, they have to fight to Tongguan. This is the second!"

After Li Gang finished speaking, Li Ruoshui stayed there. After a long while, Li Ruoshui nodded and said, "Master Li said well, the Jurchen will eventually call you! What shall we do?"

Li Gang thought for a while, and said: "For the time being, we still won't be in danger! Tongguan is steep, and the Zhe father and son have a large army stationed here. It is not easy for the Jurchens to break through Tongguan!"

Zhao Chen said: "Teacher, Zhe Keqiu, Zhe Yanzhi led an army of 150,000 to defend the Yellow River. When the Jurchens arrived, they flee without a fight! This time, if they flee without a fight, what should they do?"

Li Gang frowned, and after a long time, he said: "It shouldn't be! This Tongguan is the site of the Zhe family. This is different from the original Shanzhou. Zhe Keqiu should not be so stupid. Abandoning Tongguan! Tongguan is a big deal. Now that I have given up Tongguan, it will be difficult to retake Tongguan in the future!"

Zhao Chen nodded and said, "I hope so!"

In fact, what they don't know is that Zhe Keqiu, Zhe Yanzhi is now discussing the possibility of the Jurchens attacking Tongguan. Their ideas are very different from those of Zhao Chen and others!

Late at night, the room is brightly lit!

At this moment, in addition to the fold and the quality, there is another man in the room. This man is the eldest son of the fold. The appearance of the fold and the eldest son is quite different, it seems Very elegant! In fact, even though Zhe Yanwen came from a family of generals, he was weak in personality, so he never led the army, but handled the writing of the Zhe family!

The Jurchen may attack Tongguan, this matter is of great importance, so Zhe Keqiu called his eldest son over! He knew that although his eldest son had a weak personality, he was quite resourceful, and he was better than his second son! The second son is brave and intrepid, often unable to help when discussing major issues!

There is a map in the room, with Hedong, Hebei, Henan, and Shaanxi where they are located, and the Yellow River and Tongguan next to it! It also marked the direction of Jurchen’s attack, and Zhe Yanwen was watching carefully!

"Father, it seems that the Jurchen soldiers are coming to the west! Look, this is Wanyan Lou's room, this is Wanyan Zongwang, this is Wanyan Zongfu, this is Wanyan Wushu, the Jurchen soldiers are divided into several directions. Coming to the west, where is Tongguan where the goal is not?" Zhe Yanwen said.

"This... the Northwest is a poor place. There is not much wealth and people here. It is far inferior to Lianghuai, Jiangnan and other places. Why don't the Jurchens attack those places, but instead attack the Northwest?" Zhe Keqiu asked.

"Is it because of the prince?" Zhe Yanwen said suddenly.

"This..." Zhe Keqiu stayed there, and Zhe Yanzhi stayed there too!

"If it is really because of the prince, we might as well send the prince out and give it to the Jurchen!" Orihiko said.

"No! Now everyone in the world knows that the prince is with me. If I give the prince to the Jurchen, what is the difference between me and betraying the Song? I will never be able to stand in the Song in the future! If that is the case, I will still It's better to surrender the Jurchen directly...When the prince came a few days ago, we had great ambitions and threatened the emperor to make the princes. How can we give the prince to the Jurchen because of a small setback!" Zhe Ke said.

"But, father, the Jurchens are strong, and the family army is vulnerable. How can we beat them?" Zheyan asked.

"We have the risk of Tongguan, maybe we can stop them?" Zhe Ke asked.

He was a little hesitant in his heart, wondering if Tongguan could block the Jurchen. At this moment, he once again planned to escape, just like the last time he fled without a fight on the bank of the Yellow River!

He is good at bullying the weak, like the young prince Zhao Chen, who in his opinion is a tool he can use to bully and use, but he is afraid of being strong, Jurchen is stronger than him, he doesn't even have the courage to fight! This is the northwest barrier of the Song Dynasty, the Zhejia general and Zhejia army who guarded the northwestern prefecture for more than 500 years! By now, they have also begun to rot from the roots! How can such a general and such an army be the opponent of the Jurchen?

The two of them are discussing here, and Zhe Yanwen has been frowning and thinking. At this moment, hearing the two of them finished the discussion, Zhe Yanwen said: "Father, second brother, I have a plan, maybe it can be used to resist the Jinbing!"

Zhe Ke asked to find out about his son Congrui as soon as possible, and hurriedly said: "What is the strategy? Come on!"

Zhe Yanwen said: "Father, isn't Yao Gu always greedy for Tongguan? Let's just pass Tongguan to Yao Gu! In addition to Tongguan, let's give Chang'an City to Yao Gu!"

Yao Gu is also a general of the Western Army, and Yao Jiajun is also a major faction of the Western Army! When the Jurchens went south for the first time two years ago, Yao Gu once led troops to the King Qin. At that time, his subordinates suffered heavy losses, but even so, he still had more than 50,000 troops under him, and they were all quite elite!

Zhe Keqiu hadn't spoken yet, Zhe Yanzhi was already furious, and said, "Brother, you are confused! Tongguan and Chang'an are our footholds, how could it be given to Yao Gu?"

The water quality can be reduced, but he laughed, and said: "A good strategy, a good strategy! This is a two-shot strategy!"

Zhe Yanzhi was taken aback, and said, "Two birds with one stone? What do you say?"

Zhe Keqiu said with some dissatisfaction: "Yiji, you have to learn from your brother! Now you are in the army, and the army of more than 100,000 will always be handed over to you in the future, but you have the courage and intrepidity. This doesn't work! Yanwen, tell him why it kills two birds with one stone!"

Zhe Yanwen nodded and said, "We will give Tongguan and Chang'an to Yao Gu, and let the Yao family army garrison here. When the Jurchens arrive, the Yao family army will be responsible for resisting the Jurchens! At that time, the Yao family's army will suffer heavy losses and the Jurchens will also be blocked. , Isn't this killing two birds with one stone?"

Only then did Zhe Yanzhi understand, and said with a smile: "So, the older brother is still smart, and the younger brother admires it! It's just that we can give Tongguan to Yao Gu. Why should we give Chang'an to Yao Gu?"

That Chang'an is the most important city in the northwest. Before the Song Dynasty, it was the ancient capital of several dynasties! It was only in the late Tang Dynasty that Huang Chao rebelled and Chang'an was burned. Until the Song Dynasty, Chang'an could not restore its former prosperity! But in any case, the strategic location here is still very important! When the Taoist Master was there, this was the resident of the Clan Army. Later, the Clan Army was wiped out, and only then did he take the opportunity to occupy it! Now that Zhe Yanwen wants to give up here, Zhe Yan is very puzzled in his mind!

Zhe Yanwen said: "I'm afraid that Tongguan will not be able to block the Jurchens, so Chang'an is needed! The Yao family's garrison in these two places may be able to block the Jurchens! When the Jurchens retreat, Yao Jiajun estimates that there will not be many people left. Just grab these two places!"

Zhe Yanzhi smiled and said: "Brother's trick, let's do it according to this method!"

Zhe could ask: "Tomorrow I will send someone to inform Yao Gu! We must withdraw from Tongguan as soon as possible! Also, we must send people to investigate the situation of the Jurchens. If the Jurchens arrive in Shanzhou, regardless of whether Yao Gu arrives, We all have to go!"

This night, it took a long time for the father and son to fall asleep! Zhao Chen, Li Gang and others also discussed for a long time, and it was this time that they fell asleep!

Tongguan City finally calmed down...
