Chapter 65 Where is the way out?

An error occurred while processing s private files

The more I thought about it, the more I felt more and more suffocating. Later, I couldn't help it and asked, "General Manager, do you think we are sure to conquer Pingzhou Road this year?"

Of course not sure...

Yanjing was the seat of the palace tent of the Emperor of Liao, and the capital was located in the capital. There were heavy troops stationed. How could others snore on the side of the bed? The rebel army went south to fight Youyan, and would inevitably be furiously counterattacked by the Liao army. This is also an important reason why the Jurchens really hoped that the rebel army would go south. Once this battle started, the degree of tragicity can be imagined.

The rebel army had to go south to survive. If the Khitans lose the Nanjing Road, it would be equivalent to losing the country's fortune and there would be no way to survive. Therefore, the fight between the two sides could not be solved in one or two battles. They both had to sacrifice their lives, so the losses of the two armies would be astonishing. The Liao army suffered too much, and the consequences would be self-evident. Then the Jin people came out to pick up the bargain, and each fight was accurate, and they easily solved the Khitans and the Liaodong rebel army together.

The development of the situation is clear and everyone has a calculation in their minds, but there is no way out if they don’t fight. It is safe for the rebels to stay in this dead land in the short term, but they have not developed and cannot grow. Sooner or later, they will be prey of the Khitans or Jurchens.

"What do you think the rebel army's way out?" Li Hu asked back.

Where is the way out? This is something that the five people are thinking hard in their hearts.

If you can't defend the corridor of western Liaoning, you may be wiped out when going south to attack Youyan. Take a step back, even if the rebel army conquered Youyan, occupied Yanjing, and drove away the Emperor of Liao, would the rebel army have great achievements at that time?

No, the rebels jumped from the small encirclement of the Liaoxi Corridor to the large encirclement of Youyan.

Youyan has been a barrier to the Central Plains since ancient times. Since it is a barrier, it is of course a place for four battles. When the rebel army entered Youyan, they were surrounded by the Song, Liao and Jin people, and the left one was still the sea in the east, which was exactly the same as the rebel army being trapped in the western Liaoning Corridor.

The rebel army was trapped in the western Liaoning Corridor. The way to survive was to go south to attack Youyan. When the rebel army was trapped in Youyan, where was the way to survive? Continue to go south to fight the Song Dynasty? The Song Dynasty is the Celestial Empire, the Chinese in the world, and the country of the Han people. Since the rise of the Khitans and Shi Jingtang ceded the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun to the Liao Kingdom in order to be the emperor, the greatest wish of the Han people in Liaodong and Youyan, the greatest wish of the Han people in Liaodong and Youyan was to return to the Heavenly Kingdom. In the minds of the Han people in Liaodong and Youyan, it was a holy land. It was the root, it was blood, it was the flesh and blood. How could the flesh and blood be destroyed?

Then again, even if the Liaodong rebel army turned its back on its roots and forgot its ancestors in order to survive, would it be better than the Song Dynasty? The Song Dynasty was too powerful in the minds of the people of Liaodong and could not be defeated. When going south to fight the Song Dynasty, it was like a mantis in a chariot, and it was purely avenged.

So, since this is the way out of the Liaodong rebel army, it is naturally of deep meaning.

On the way from Jinzhou to Yuguan, Li Hu was always thinking about this problem, the issue of survival. This problem was in Heishan, and Ma Kuo told him that if the Liaodong rebel army really couldn't hold on, they could join the Heavenly Kingdom and return to the Song Dynasty.

When Longhua came out, more than 100,000 Han people who were transformed from Longhua followed the rebel army south with the determination to return to the Celestial Empire. At that time, Li Hu was moved by Longhua's Han people. He had actually made a decision in his heart, that was, to return to the Celestial Empire, return to the Song Dynasty, and return to his hometown.

However, Mr. Wuyan's words at Tribulus Mountain gave Li Hu a heavy blow, which made him suddenly wonder if his decision was correct.

In the eyes of the Song people, the Song people are Chinese and the most civilized and noble race in the world. However, the Han people in Liaodong and Han people in Youyan have become Han people, Han Er, Han barbarians, and Han people. They are all Han people, and the same blood flows in their bodies. Just because they deviate from China for one or two hundred years, they become Han people. Even Han people have become a unique noun for the Chinese people to call the Han barbarians in Liaodong. Isn’t that too outrageous?

The Han people in the Song Dynasty were called Chinese, real Han people, while the Han people in Liaodong and Youyan were called Han'er, who were from the Fan tribe, not Han people. What is the logic of robbers?

Li Hu is a real native of the Song Dynasty and a Chinese. He has been in Liaodong for many years. He recognizes the Han people in Liaodong. Especially now, he is the commander-in-chief of the Liaodong Rebel Army and the King of the Tiger in the minds of the Han people in Liaodong. Of course, he has to consider everything for the benefit of the Han people in Liaodong.: If the Han people in Liaodong and Youyan were not recognized by the Song people and were discriminated against and humiliated, the dream of returning to the Celestial Empire would become a terrifying nightmare.

However, the Liaodong Rebel Army is not an army alone. These five people in front of us are the pillars of the Liaodong Rebel Army. You can listen to their opinions and adopt their suggestions for many things.

Li Hu didn't know how to speak.

For a long time, from Luo Qinghan to Zhang Guanyu whom he met today, they have regarded killing the enemy and restoring the Han Dynasty as the basis for their great cause. Their ultimate goal is to open up borders and establish a country like Huang She, Chai Yun and others in the General's Mansion.

Of course this idea is very good and very tempting. I also want to open a country, build a kingly and dominate a country, and also want to be an emperor. But the key question is, you must always have the capital to open a country, right? The Liaodong rebel army has a 100,000 army, isn’t this the capital? Joke, the army has been fought today and can be further promoted tomorrow. If you want to open a country, you must first have a piece of territory, and secondly, you must have money. Without territory, you will not be able to support the army without money. As a result, you are still a rustic trap who is hiking through mountains.

The Jurchens were able to establish a country and establish a country and establish a country because the Jurchens were a powerful tribe in the Northeast. They had their own territory, their own property and livestock. This was the most basic capital for establishing a country.

Does the Liaodong rebel army have territory? No. Is it rich? No. Although the Liaodong rebel army fought bloody battles, it was still surrounded. In the future, it will conquer Youyan and occupy Yanjing, but it will still be surrounded.

Think about Shi Jingtang, why did he ced the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun to the Khitans? To put it bluntly, it was not that he had no territory and money, but he wanted to be the emperor, so he had to think of such an idea to betray his ancestors. This idea directly led to the Chinese losing the barrier of the Central Plains. After the founding of the Song Dynasty, the national policy could only be taken as defense. In the words of my father, the most terrifying thing about this idea was not only that it made the barrier of the Central Plains, but also that the Han people lost their backbone, harming China for more than 400 years and causing countless creatures to die in the war. Shi Jingtang's crimes are endless.

Since the Liaodong Rebel Army did not have the capital to establish a country and open a border, then returning to the Celestial Empire was the only way to survive. After taking down Youyan and rebuilt the Central Plains barrier, returning to the Celestial Empire with such contributions, the Liaodong Rebel Army could get satisfactory results. Especially importantly, the Han people in Liaodong and Youyan finally returned. Everyone worked together to recreate the prosperity of the Han and Tang Dynasties. If such outstanding achievements could be built, wouldn’t it be a perfect achievement to kill the enemy and restore the Han area?

However, the question is, do others think the same way?

"When I was negotiating with the Jin people at Ningchang City, Yizhou that day, I met Ma Kuo, the envoy from the Song Dynasty who was sent to the Jin Kingdom."

Then he repeated Ma Kuo's words. The Song and Jin formed an alliance to attack Liao. The time is not yet ripe, but this matter cannot be dragged on without restrictions, so there must be an external force to promote the development of the situation in Liaodong so as to create the best opportunity for Song and Jin to join forces to attack Liao as soon as possible.

Ma Kuo's suggestion at that time was that the rebels would go south as soon as possible and break into Youyan. However, because of their different positions, he started from the position of the Song Dynasty. It was of great use. However, he had a suggestion at that time that if the rebels went south to attack Youyan, the Song Dynasty was willing to provide money, food and weapons for the rebels, and promised that if the rebels could not gain a foothold in Youyan, they could choose to return to the Song Dynasty.

After saying this, the five people present suddenly realized and finally understood why Li Hu dared to make a promise to Hou Guai and helped him rescue the Bohai Army within this year, because Li Hu did not intend to use force, but planned to use the power of the Song Dynasty to rescue the Bohai Army from the Jin people's siege.

"General General. Have you made an agreement with the envoy of the Song Dynasty?" Dong Xiaohou was very surprised.

In fact, it was not just an agreement. As early as in Heishan, Ma Kuo predicted the development of the situation in Liaodong for Li Hu. Everything Li Hu did, the Liaodong rebel army's promotion of the situation, was ingeniously consistent with the prediction of Ma Kuo. To a certain extent, Li Hu had been advancing according to the trajectory set by Ma Kuo. Now that the rebel army has reached the east gate of Youyan, if nothing unexpected happens, closely monitor the Liaodong rebel army's local horse expansion will soon come, and his arrival will surely further promote the development of the situation in Liaodong.

In other words, Li Hu was sure that Ma Kuo would follow the agreement, but he was the words of Mr. Wuyan, who was nervous. He didn't know what the final outcome would be if the Liaodong rebel army followed this path?

Li Hu hesitated for a long time and nodded, "It's just a verbal agreement. Ma Kuo means that as long as I go south, the Song Dynasty will definitely provide assistance."

"What are the conditions?" Zhang Guanyu asked.

"There is no conditions." Li Hu said, "Looking at the situation in front of us, it is obvious that we are going south to attack Youyan, and our attack will definitely create the opportunity for Song and Jin to join forces to attack Liao."

Then he looked at the five coaches and smiled bitterly: "The problem is, our way out is

Is the way out for the Liaodong rebel army to return to the Heavenly Kingdom?

No one said this.

Li Hu didn't say it because he dared not say that Mr. Wuyan was a native of the Song Dynasty. His words largely represented the position of the Song Dynasty. If the facts were as he said, then the fate of returning to the Song Dynasty was unpredictable. If the Liaodong rebel army encounters bad luck in the future, thousands of people will die in destruction, and they will die thousands of people and cannot redeem their sins.

The five coaches didn't say anything.

They longed to return to the Celestial Empire from the bottom of their hearts, but more than a hundred years ago, the Celestial Empire abandoned them and allowed them to suffer the ravages of the Khitans, and allowed their homeland to suffer pain and sorrow under the iron hooves of the Khitans. It was precisely because of their despair of the Celestial Empire that the Han people in Liaodong shouted the slogan of killing the enemy and restoring the Han. If they return today, will the Celestial Empire welcome? Will the Celestial Empire protect?
