Chief Commander. Then when will we attack?" Huang She asked.

"Now." Li Hu said to Brother Huo Liu. Order Dong Shuai Luo Shuai and Mao Shuai immediately attacked and took the Tiande Army for me." Suddenly, he remembered something and asked immediately. "Is Yue Fei back?"

Brother Huo Liu shook his head. "His father passed away. According to the principle, he must be filial for three years..."

"I asked you to send someone to invite me. Did you do it?" Li Hu asked with a frown.

"I sent someone. But Yue Fei replied that he would be mourning for three years." Brother Huo Liu sighed. "If the general general wants Yue Fei to come back, he will not ask the emperor to issue an order to regain his love."

"Then I will ask Bian Jing to ask the emperor to issue an order to resume."

"There are many powerful generals in the Huliu Mansion. There is no need for Yue Fei to do the overall situation." Li Gang advised. "My father was worried about leaving his post and staying mourning for three years. This is human nature. There is no need for the prime minister..."

"Request for Bianjing immediately." Li Hu interrupted Li Gang's words with one force. "I must ask Yue Fei to participate in the Western Expedition. Since ancient times, loyalty and filial piety cannot be divided. The Western Expedition is related to the safety of the country and the safety of the people. How can loyalty be abolished because of filial piety?"

Li Gang disagreed. "My Song Dynasty established the country with filial piety and ruled the world with filial piety. How could we abolish filial piety because of loyalty?"

Then what do you mean is filial piety more than loyalty?" Li Hu asked coldly.

"Of course. If a person cannot even respect his own parents, can he still be loyal to the emperor and patriotism?"

"What can mourning for three years? It means he respects his parents?" Li Hu's voice unknowingly increased. "A person's filial piety is to act. It focuses on filial piety before his death. Instead of burying the glory after his death. He lay on the grave for three years. Who should he see the glory? Who should he see the glory? Do you know how many people use these things to deceive the world and steal reputation? Loyalty. Loyalty is in front of filial piety. When the kingdom needs one person to be loyal to and need one person to kill the enemy for the country. But he refuses to kill the enemy for three years. What should he do with such filial piety? Can such so-called filial piety be loyal to the emperor and patriotism?"

The two people had completely different views. They immediately started arguing in the conference hall. Civil officials such as Huang She and Chai Yun supported Li Gang's views. Dong Zhongsun and others believed that Li Hu's words were very reasonable. The civil and military officials also fought for the issue of loyalty and filial piety.

The Dingyou system has existed since the Han Dynasty. By the Song Dynasty, it was under the charge of the Taichang Liyuan. Whenever an official had a mourning parents, he would be punished to be resigned. After the full service, he would be reinstated. No matter in the Song Dynasty, he was a scholar in the Liao Dynasty, he had been holding two books since childhood. One book "The Analects of Confucius" and the Book of Filial Piety. The scholars grew up singing the Analects of Confucius and the Book of Filial Piety. He believed that it was natural to keep filial piety for three years. If he could not do it, it would be unfilial. His reputation would suffer immeasurable losses. The understanding of this civil servants and civil servants. Military generals had views on military generals. However, since ancient times, loyalty and filial piety could not be achieved at the same time. When the country needed it, anyone should stand up at any time. National interests are above everything else.

On the fifth day of the September 20th, Li Hu arrived at the Yuanyanglu.

Li Hu did not see Zong Han or Zong Wang. He was greeted by Deputy Chief Wanyan Yu (Pu Nu) and Wanyan Olu. There were also Wanyan Lou Shi Yin Shuke and other Jin generals.

Li Hu explained his purpose of going to Yuanyanglu in person. "I'm going to fight the Western Expedition soon. But you still have no sign of going north to the desert. I won't come." The implication is that my main army has all gone to fight Xixia. Datong is empty. If you suddenly betray and attack Datong, then I will be in trouble.

"Tiger King. You have made an appointment with us. July attacked. Why did it delay until now?" Wanyan Yu asked.

"Can my strength defeat the Xixia people?" Li Hu smiled. "If you want to defeat the Xixia, I must attack the Song army from north to south. So recently I went to Taiyuan and made an appointment with the Song people to attack together."

Wanyan Yu, Wanyan Wanyan Loushi and others looked at each other. The faces were heavy. The emperor was in poor health. The undercurrent of Huanglong Mansion was surging. The strategy of expeditioning the desert in the north has been temporarily put on hold. In the short term, even this year, the Jin army would not be able to enter the desert. On the contrary, Li Hu and Da Song attacked Xixia within the scheduled time. This was bad news for the Jurchens. If the Song and Li Hu defeated Xixia and recovered the western frontier, then the Song Dynasty would establish a solid barrier from the ten thousand miles of Yumen Guandong to Yuguan. The Jurchens' dream of unifying the north would probably never be realized again.

"When will the Tiger King attack?" asked Olu.

"Five days later." Li Hu smiled. "I am here. I just think of your promise."

"I'm afraid I can't make a promise." Wanyan thought for a moment and said decisively. "The emperor has issued an order to stop the northern expedition for the time being."

Li Hu pretended to be surprised. "Why? You won't fight the desert?"

"This is all because the Song people are treacherous." Wanyan Yu sneered. "The Zhang Jue rebelled on Pingzhou Road because the Song people secretly supported it. What is particularly angry is that the Song people actually accepted Zhang Jue publicly and violated the alliance and snatched Pingzhou Road."

Li Hu couldn't pretend to be unaware of this matter. He beat him up to the sky. "According to the alliance, Yanjing should be attacked by the Song people. In my opinion.

It is not the people of the Song Dynasty who believe in and out of righteousness. It is you."

"The first one who betrayed the truth is you." Yan Oulu stared at Li Hu and asked angrily. "We had an agreement at the beginning. You couldn't kill you into Youyan. But what did you do? You not only entered Yanjing, but also plundered Yanjing."

"The first one who betrayed the faith is you." Huma immediately retorted. "If you don't attack Xijing, how could I suffer such a huge loss? Who will compensate for my losses? I won't kill into Yanjing. I won't plunder all Yanjing. What do I eat and drink? What do I use to attack Xixia?"

Wanyan Yu smiled. We won’t argue anymore. This is all the past. Let’s talk about the present." He put the map on the case table in front of Li Hu. "Now, we must first take down Pingzhou Road to ensure the safety of Pingzhou Road."

"What are you going to do? Take Yanjing back?" Li Hu's heart suddenly pounded. His eyes couldn't help but glared at him, and he was full of murderous intent.

"Of course." Wanyan Yu lied to delay Li Hu's attack on Xixia. "The Song Dynasty people encouraged Zhang Jue to rebel, accepted Zhang Jue, and publicly broke with me, Da Jin. Then, do I still need to comply with the covenant? Of course, we have to attack Yanjing, seize Youyan, and threaten Hebei."

"So, are you going to turn against me?" Li Hu asked sternly.

Wanyan Yu smiled slightly and was calm. "So far, I have not received the emperor's imperial edict. But I can tell you the truth. The governor has been urgently recalled to Zhongjing by the emperor. It is probably just a matter of discussing the fight against Youyan. If nothing unexpected happens, after we come back, we will start a war."

Li Hu's eyes turned from Wanyan Yu's face to Wanyan Olu, and then to Wanyan Loushi. Slowly, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and then he burst into laughter. "So, should I form an alliance with the Xixia people now?"

I'm afraid it's too late." Wanyan Yu smiled. "If the Song people attack, can you stay out of trouble? If the Song army is defeated by your treason, can Bianjing still believe you? Bianjing doesn't believe you. The Xixia people don't believe you. Then when we attack you, will they take advantage of the situation and take advantage of the situation and put down the slaughter. Or will they form an alliance with you and join forces to deal with us like last year?"

Li Hu nodded repeatedly with a smile. "It makes sense. It makes sense."

Now he was sure that Wanyan Aguda's condition was getting worse and worse. Otherwise, the Jin army would not have temporarily put aside the plan for the Northern Expedition. Wanyan Yu was even more unable to be clever and talk nonsense here. Why did Wanyan Yu threaten himself? It was very simple. He had to delay his time in the Western Expedition. The reason was that he was worried that the Xixia people would be defeated and stolen by the Song Dynasty.

However, Wanyan Yu's words are not at all reasonable. If Wanyan Aguda dies, Huanglong Mansion is trapped in a fierce power struggle. Then let alone the northern expedition to the desert. In order to ensure the stability of the Northeast, the Jin army probably even Daibei has always been tenacious. They will never give up easily. They will try every means to help the Xixia people defend their territory. Thus, they use the Xixia people to delay the Song Dynasty and Hulie Mansions and give them enough time to survive the crisis.

What method could the Jurchens use to help the Xixia people defend their territory? Youyan. Attack Youyan. Using the excuse of the Song Dynasty accepting Zhang Jue, he took Youyan again and dragged the troops of the Song Dynasty and Li Hu firmly on the battlefield of Youyan.

Li Hu felt dizzy. He didn't know what to do next? Wanyan Agu was killed. Huanglong Mansion was in chaos. Jurchens killed each other. Then he had a chance to occupy the Northeast. On the contrary, what if Huanglong Mansion was not in chaos? Wanyan Aguda's inheritance must take time to stabilize Huanglong Mansion and stabilize Northeast. In order to win this time, what choice will he make next? Should he fight the desert in the north or take down Youyan?

Li Hu left the Jin army camp. Wanyan Loushi was ordered to send him off.

The two of them walked together, chatting without a word. Li Hu suddenly remembered something and stopped hurriedly. "Is Yelu Dashi there? Zonghan once promised me that he was willing to hand over Yelu Dashi to me."

"He ran away," Lou Shi said. "You saved some money."

"Really?" Li Hu asked in surprise.

"I don't need to lie to you." Lou Shi smiled. "I thought he would escape to you. Now it seems that I'm wrong. He probably ran back to the desert."

Li Hu urged the horse to go first. Lou Shi followed and whispered: "Tiger King. In my opinion, you should indeed postpone the Western Expedition."

"What's the reason?" Li Hu asked. "The Pu family slaves have been lying to me. Why? To be honest, if your emperor changed his plan and wanted to beat Youyan and Datong, he would never tell me."

Lou Shi pondered for a long time and sighed. "If...If..."

"What do you want to say?"

"never mind.
