The situation in Zhongjing Road is now critical, with the Jin army in the northeast and the rebel army in the southeast. The palace tent had to send troops to enter Zhongjing Road to fight continuously. Yelu Chun, as the commander of the front line, his strength was even stronger. Considering that the Jurchens and the Han thieves in Liaodong jointly attacked Liao, the Liao army was losing sight of the other side, Yelu Chun also made concessions, first discussing peace and then suppressing bandits, but the condition was that once the peace was successful, the emperor must establish the imperial rule.

There is a deep meaning behind this condition. Discussing peace with Jin means ceding the ancestors' foundation to the Jurchens and bringing shame to the Great Liao. The responsibility will eventually be borne by the emperor. If the peace agreement is successful, the emperor can prepare to be the Supreme Emperor.

Of course, the emperor was unwilling to accept it. The ministers of the Lord and the peace delegation considered that after the new emperor ascended the throne, the national policy might be controlled by the pro-war faction, and the war would continue, and the country's destiny was still on the verge of defeat, so they also had their own ideas. In this way, the situation was very complicated in the matter of establishing a crown prince.

The emperor obviously intended to provoke the struggle between the ministers of the palace tent and then delayed the establishment of the crown prince. The war-holding factions and the peace-holding factions also fought hard to fight for power to control the national policy.

If the situation in the palace tent is taken to the battlefield of bandit suppression, two strategies will be formed.

The pro-war faction needs the army as a backing and needs to use rebels to coerce the emperor to establish a crown prince and abdicate, so he advocates pacification, to put it bluntly, dragging it, surround it without fighting, and wait until the imperial system is established, and then he will attack the plan of the Eastern Expedition.

Of course, the emperor and the lords were eager to suppress the bandits. When the robbers were pacified, the army immediately returned to the garrison. It could save a lot of money. The most important thing was to recall the commanders of each army back to the palace tent, and the lords would lose their reliance that could be rampant, and the next thing would be easier.

"What does King Yan mean?" Yelu Dashi asked, "Is it to drag or beat?"

Xiao Degong hesitated for a long time and said something.

The King of Yan believed that after the Liao and Jin peace talks, the Jurchens immediately got a chance to breathe, but the Jurchens saw it very clearly that with the strength of the Jin Kingdom, the strength of the Jin Kingdom is still unable to compete with the Liao Kingdom. If the imperial regime of our Great Liao Kingdom was successfully replaced and the national policy was adjusted smoothly, the war would continue. Therefore, the Jurchens had to plan for their future. First, it would form an alliance with the Great Song Dynasty and join the Song Dynasty to attack the Liao Dynasty. According to reliable information, the Jin Dynasty envoy had crossed the Hainan and went south with the Great Song Dynasty envoy last month to discuss the alliance attack with the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty.

The situation is very clear. The Song Dynasty needs to recover the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun, while the Jurchens need to survive and develop. Therefore, it is difficult for the Song and Jin to join forces to attack Liao.

For this reason, the Jurchens had to spare no effort to prevent the replacement of the Great Liao imperial regime and to enter all ways to consume the strength of the Great Liao. The best way at present is to help the thieves of the Liaodong Han Dynasty, help the thieves of the Liaodong Han Dynasty survive and develop, and then use the power of the thieves of the Liaodong Han Dynasty to severely damage the Great Liao Dynasty, creating a maturity opportunity for the Song and Jin alliance to attack the Liao Dynasty in the later period.

From this point of view, we need to siege and kill the rebels as soon as possible, but from the fierce struggle in the palace tent, we need to delay the encirclement and suppression as much as possible. So, what can we think of a way to achieve the best of both worlds and achieve all goals?

The solution is very simple. The emperor and the peace ministers are eager to suppress the bandits, aren’t they determined to kill them, aren’t they accusing the war faction of being weak in attack and intentionally delaying the encirclement and suppression? Well, please come and command. If you are defeated in this battle, you will bear the responsibility. The result is that the emperor and the peace ministers are shooting themselves in the foot, and swallowing the bitter fruits they have made themselves.

At that time, the rebel army would have a greater threat to the great Liao Dynasty. The emperor and the ministers of the lord had to bow their heads and could only compromise and concessions to the pro-war faction again. In this way, the imperial regime could be successfully established according to the wishes of the pro-war faction.

The imperial throne was established, and the war faction controlled the palace tent and formulated national policies. Then they could siege and kill the rebels with all their might, and then set up strategies for the Eastern Expedition. They could destroy the Jin Kingdom before the Jurchens grew stronger.

Dashi suddenly realized that Xiao Degong rushed to Jinzhou himself, not to deploy encirclement and suppression, but to give face-to-face opportunities and give him the command of the Jinzhou battlefield to Xiao Bao, the South East Road recruitment envoy.

Xiao Bao was the deputy envoy of the Northern Prefecture Privy Council and the backbone of the ministers of the Lord and the sentencing ministers. This time he also served as the envoy of the South East Road Recruitment and commanded the Liao army in the South East Road to encircle and suppress the rebels. The emperor and the palace tent were already very obvious, and he had to fight in person.

"Who is the command of the Liao army on the East Road?" asked Dashi. The Liao army on the East Road was commanded by King Xi Xiao Gan. This time, Xiao Gan lost the throne mountain. Although he was relieved of his crime, he was dismissed from the Eastern Road Military Affairs Office and returned to the Xi Palace. "Yelu Eliye." Xiao Degong said, "The Lord transferred him from the North Road to the East Road and became the commander of the East Road."

Dashi smiled bitterly, thought for a moment, and suddenly asked, "Can I stay in Jinzhou?"

Xiao Degong shook his head, "Tomorrow, you and me will go back to Nanjing with me. The rebel Dong Pang'er is back again. You will take 10,000 Liaoxing troops with me to return to Nanjing Road to suppress the bandits. Zhang Saba from Mayushan has been rampant recently and has repeatedly intercepted the food road. Yu Ji, the commander of the southeast road, will soon start to encircle and suppress. As for Li Hu, he will have to be surrounded and killed with Jurchens with help from him. "

"Jinzhou is the best battlefield to siege Li Hu. If he escapes, he may not lose his head in the future..."

Dashi wanted to persuade him again, but Xiao Degong shook his hand to stop him. "This time there is Xiao Bao in the south and Yelu Eliye in the north. The two armies attacked each other from north to south. Even if Li Hu could kill him, he would be dying, which is not worth worrying."

"Xiao Bao, Eriye has never fought with Li Hu, so he will definitely underestimate the enemy. Once Jinzhou is lost, the situation will be out of control."

Xiao Degong knew that he had seen Li Hudi's ability on the battlefield in Chengzhou, but because of this, the King of Yan and a group of ministers in the palace tent would take the initiative to "give the virtuous". Otherwise, how would the matter in the palace tent be resolved? The reason why Xiao Degong personally arrived in Jinzhou and the reason why the palace tent transferred Yelu Dashi from the battlefield in Jinzhou was to actively cooperate with the emperor and the ministers in the imperial court to suppress bandits and let them fall into the trap they dug.

As for Jinzhou, Xiao Degong is confident that he will not lose it. He has already learned the lesson of Xiao Gan losing the Tribulus Mountain before, so I believe Xiao Bao must be extremely careful.

"If nothing unexpected happens, if Li Hu still cannot break through Jinzhou after the beginning of spring, he has only two choices, either go up the mountain to be a bandit, or turn back and return to the mountain with the help of the Jin people." Xiao Degong said, "No matter what choice Li Hu makes, he will take the rebel army to escape from the encirclement of the Liao army. As long as he escapes to the mountain and continues to persist, Xiao Bao and Yelu Eliye will be defeated, and the situation in the palace tent will be beneficial to us."

Yelu Dashi sighed sadly and stopped talking.

Until now, these ministers still don’t take Li Hu seriously. They say they pay attention to it, but they actually don’t pay attention to it at all. But this is not the most terrible thing. The most terrible thing is that these people only have their own interests in their hearts. They say that for the reign of the Great Liao Kingdom, but in the final analysis, they do not want their own interests to suffer any loss. In their eyes, the so-called reign of the Great Liao Kingdom is just a reason to gain personal gain and a fig leaf for self-deception.

If this continues, even if Li Hu is killed, even if the imperial regime changes, the palace tent is full of dangers and bloody battles. These greedy and shameless powerful people of the Great Liao Dynasty will never stop fighting.

If this continues, the country will not be in danger and the country will die.

New Year and new atmosphere. People are praying for the new year to bring good luck. Li Hu, like everyone else, is also praying. His prayers welcome the first good news in the New Year. Zhu Xia, who went to Black Mountain to find Zhang Guanyu, is back.

Zhu Xia returned with the whistling wind and snow. He brought back three news.

Zhang Guanyu found it. After receiving the news from Dong Xiaochou, the Wu Yong Army immediately evacuated from Lizhou, crossed mountains and ridges, intending to go north to Daling River to meet the tiger king south, but because of the wind and snow, he had to stop. After Zhu Xia found him, he told him in detail about the Tiger King and the King of War, heading south to Jinzhou, and made a request from the Tiger King, hoping that he could attack the rear of Jinzhou, wait for an opportunity to cut off the Liao army's food supply route, and help the main force of the rebel army capture Jinzhou.

Zhang Guanyu agreed, but his troops were limited. Although he claimed to be 30,000, there were only two or three thousand people who could fight, most of whom were following him to make a living. Therefore, it was okay to rob and kill a small convoy of Liao army's supplies, but it was not enough to cut off the Liao army's food route, and it was difficult to achieve the goal of restraining the Liao army.

Zhu Xia originally planned to find Zhang Saba and the grain shooting army, but was stopped by Zhang Guanyu. Zhang Guanyu said that Zhang Saba was so crazy that he didn't know that the world was high and wanted to be king in Mayushan. Some time ago, he sent someone to find the Wu Yong Army and invited Zhang Guanyu to Mayushan to gather together, but was rejected by Zhang Guanyu. Ma Yushan was very close to Zhongjing, and he was called king with Zhang Saba's strength, purely seeking death.

Zhang Guanyu also mentioned another person, that is Dong Pang'er, who led the Hebei army to fight back. Dong Pang'er and Zhang Guanyu both came from the first Wu Yong army formed by the Liao people. They were very friendly in the past. This time, under the persuasion of Longzhu Daxian, they led their troops down Taihang Mountains, intending to take advantage of Youyan's main force to go north to Zhongjing Road and fight all the way to Yanshan, joining Zhang Guanyu first, and then looking for opportunities to join the main force of the Liaodong Rebel Army.

It is unknown what the situation between Dong Panger and Youyan Army is now, but since Dong Panger sent someone to send a message, he should take action. However, in Zhang Guanyu's opinion, it is difficult for Dong Panger to break through the Liao army's blockade and kill the Dayan Mountain area.

Zhang Guanyu has another proposal.
