Lin Chong did think so. Even though Li Hu's excuse was high-sounding, it could not conceal the purpose of annexing the Northwest Army.

"General General, Yang Keshi, Yang Weizhong, and Yang Zhi, they may not be loyal to you." Lin Chong deliberately reminded, "Even if you transfer Wu, Zhang Jun and others from the Northwest Army to the Tiger Lie Army, the more than 100,000 Northwest Army in Shaanxi are still a huge force. How can the Northwest Generals easily surrender to you?"

"I have the same view." Hailasu said seriously, "The strength of the Northwest General Sect is too huge, especially in Shaanxi, and has a strong foundation. This time you annex 20,000 Northwest Army, which will allow the Northwest General Sect to join forces to compete with you. In the future, they will become a hidden danger and will not lose their tails."

"The matter of the Northwest Army must be solved, and the Northwest Army must first solve the Northwest Army. The Northwest Army must first solve the Dangxiang people. If the Dangxiang people are not destroyed, we have to rely on the Northwest Army to guard Shaanxi. At that time, the court would inevitably be controlled by the Northwest Army and be subject to the strong elbow everywhere. The great cause of unification is even more difficult to achieve." Li Hu's face was also very serious. Before Yue Fei expressed the harm of the Northwest people, Li Hu had not considered the problems of the Northwest people too much. He had to cooperate for the current two sides, rather than deliberately suppressing and provoking conflicts. However, after Yue Fei directly stated the pros and cons, Li Hu realized that he was negligent in this matter and must be high.

Be vigilant and take precautions early.

"Can we 80,000 people defeat the Jin army?" Li Hu did not want to discuss in depth on this issue, so he immediately changed the topic.

Lin Chong and Hailasu also understood it. He didn't talk about the Northwest people anymore, but he brought the topic to the Jurchens.

"If the main force of the Tiger and Lieutenant Army cannot go south to support, we will not win this battle." Hailasu spoke out loudly, and he scoffed at the combat effectiveness of the Song army. This is not a problem that can be solved immediately by training in the whole army. This involves a series of complex problems. The Hebei Rebel Army has limited combat effectiveness, especially lacks experience in fighting with the Horse Army. As for infantry formations, even if they lack systematic training, even if they use war instead, they cannot be compared with the regular infantry of the Liao Kingdom in the past. The combat effectiveness of the Northwest Army was originally very good, but they have suffered too many defeats. From the beginning of the Northern Expedition to the present, one after another has been defeated, and one famous general in the Northwest China died, which seriously damaged morale and confidence. Therefore, it is estimated that it will take a long time to restore its strength and regain its strength.

"When the General Commander was in Hebei, he abandoned the defense directly. Handan and Daming Prefecture defended the Yellow River defense line to the death. This is completely correct. If you rely on these troops to fight the Jin army in Hebei, you will definitely be defeated miserably, so don't say it now

After defending Bianjing, even Luoyang could not be saved, and the entire Central Plains would have to hand over to the death." Hailasu sighed, "Fortunately, the general general knew the strength of these troops. He did not hesitate and retreated directly to the Yellow River. Then he found an opportunity to win a battle in Puyang, and it was the Youyan army that fought Guo Yaoshi. The army had only eight thousand people at the beginning. Guo Yaoshi later recruited troops everywhere and raised a hundred thousand. In fact, most of the combat power was similar to that of the grain shooting army. If the one who rushed from Daming Mansion was not Guo Yaoshi, but Wanyan's mother Meng'an Mouke or Wanyan's lazy six Xijun, would you dare to fight?"

Li Hu laughed, "Amunding can see clearly. If it is Wanyan, mother or Wanyan Talai, I will not take the risk of attacking, that is too dangerous. These troops are not their opponents at all."

"We have to reorganize the army in a hurry, and then train for a month to fight with the Jin army leader?" Helasu asked.

"Of course not."

"The Chief General has another way to defeat the enemy?" Lin Chong asked hurriedly.

"Find an opportunity." Li Hu smiled, "The ultimate goal of this battle is to lay the foundation for the world. The next three-point pattern

,If we win, we can have the advantage in the three-point pattern, but we absolutely cannot defeat it. Therefore, the worst case is to abandon Bianjing and defend Luoyang to the death, so that the Jurchens can have the advantage in the three-point pattern."

"So, is the number of reinforcements transferred from Hedong?" asked Hailasu.

Li Hu laughed and did not directly answer, "The world is three points, competing for the Central Plains. Today, we and the Jurchens are the only ones in this battlefield, and there are fewer rebellions in the Southeast. Wait patiently, as long as the Southeast rebels are killed, our chance may come."

Lin Chong and Hailasu looked at each other and thoughtfully. The Southeast rebels came and colluded with the Jin army to attack the Tiger and Lieutenant Army. Wouldn't the situation be more unfavorable?

On the first day of March, the Banqiao Jin Army Camp.

Zong Wang rushed to Banqiao to meet Zong Han. Zong Han went to the gate to greet him. Seeing Zong Wang's face was pale, his lips were bloodless, and he was haggard, he felt very moved. Thinking of the friendship between his brothers in the past, he couldn't help but sigh secretly.

"How are you doing recently?" Zong Han personally helped Zong Wang off his war horse and asked with concern, "What do you say after the diagnosis of those doctors from Yanjing?"

"It's nothing big, I'm just over-exhausted, just rest more." Zong Wang said lightly.

"Then you have to rest more." Zong Han smiled, "If you have any questions, please give me a letter and I'll go to your place, so don't run away."

"Okay, okay, listen to my brother." Zong Wang pointed to the northwest with the horse whip in his hand. "This time I mainly want to come to see Li Hu, so I went there myself. Li Hu was still motionless in Shahe?"

"Since he is here, he will always move." Zong Han accompanied Zong Wang to the coach's tent and smiled, "But this time, we must be careful and not give him any more opportunities."

The smile on Zong Wang's face suddenly became a little stiff, and anger rushed to his mind, and his eyes suddenly became dark. Zong Wang stopped quickly and shook his body slightly. Zong Bi, who was following him, was startled and took two steps to support him, "Second brother, how are you? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

Zong Han stood aside, looking at Zong Wang's pale face, and a trace of uneasiness flashed through his heart. Did he urgently report to Yanjing and Huanglong Mansion to report Zong Wang's condition truthfully? But in a second thought, he rejected it again. Zong Wang deliberately concealed his condition. If he reported it rashly, it might cause unnecessary trouble and even have an adverse impact on the battle situation.

Zong Wang held Zong Bi's shoulder and continued to walk towards the handsome tent. Zong Han looked at his back and shook his head. He was only in his thirties and was in his prime. This little illness would be fine. Besides, with Zong Wang's tenacious personality, there was no difficulty to overcome.

After entering the coach's tent, Zong Wang walked directly to the map, staring at Shahe Town on the map with his eyes fixed on it.

Zong Han gave Gao Qingyi a wink. Gao Qingyi immediately introduced the military situation to Zong Wang.

"Li Hu brought more than 20,000 troops to station in Shahe, and his main army was in Xingyang."

"It's indeed in Xingyang?" Zong Bi asked.

"We have been investigating for several days and confirmed that their main force is in Ying

Yang." Gao Qingyi showed a look of confusion on his face, "It is puzzling that these troops are training every day, from morning to night, and some troops even train until midnight."

"What are you practicing?"

"There are all kinds of projects, formations, sieges, cavalry and infantry confrontations, and even crossbowmen practicing archery."

Zong Wang frowned deeply and turned his eyes to Zong Han, "What do you think? What exactly do Li Hu want to do?"

"It's about training troops, of course it's for war." Zong Han smiled, "I have sent people to Heyin and Taixingjie to investigate. If the main force of the Hu Lie Army goes southeast of Hebei, we will get news immediately."

Zong Wang was silent for a while and said, "This battle situation in front of him is a game-and-death game for Li Hu. If he wants to defend Bianjing and gain an advantage in the Central Plains, he must abandon his son and give up somewhere to win the best interests."

"In my estimate, he will definitely abandon Bianjing and even give up the Central Plains." Zong Han said, "For Li Hu, Datong and Taiyuan are his foundations, and he will not give up if he has no way out."

"That's what you think?" Zong Wang stretched out his hand and pointed to Nanjing Yingtian Prefecture on the map. "Yesterday, Zhao Ji sent an envoy to discuss the joint attack on Li Hu. Now Wu Min and Xin Xingzong's army have captured Suzhou, which is more than 400 miles away from Yingtian Prefecture. According to the envoy, six days later, the Song army can arrive at Yingtian Prefecture and launch an attack."

"So quickly?" Zong Han was a little surprised. "How many troops are there?"

"forty thousand."

"Forty thousand?" Zong Han was even more surprised, "I heard from the surrendered officials of the Song people that the Southeast Song Dynasty had a small number of soldiers and generally had no combat effectiveness. These 40,000 troops may not be able to conquer Yingtian Prefecture."

"What if Li Hu ordered his army to give up Yingtian Mansion voluntarily?"

Zong Han smiled, "If Li Hu voluntarily gave up Yingtian Prefecture, then in fact it would be equivalent to giving up Bian Jing, and the situation is very beneficial to us. However, there is also a little trouble. If these 40,000 people occupy Yingtian Prefecture, then Zhongtu will form a three-part pattern. At this time, any situation may occur, and Li Hu may even join forces with Zhao Ji to block it.

We conquered Bianjing.”

"What's your countermeasure?"

"Of course we have to seize Yingtian Mansion." Zong Han said without hesitation. "Now the people of the Southeast Song Dynasty are the weakest. If you want to fight, you can beat them and fight them back south of the Huaihe River. We will continue to confront Li Hu in the Central Plains and force Li Hu to fight to the decisive battle."

If you fight Li Hu to defeat Li Hu, then the Jin army can not only occupy the Central Plains, but also continue to attack Luoyang and Chang'an, and then implement the technique of attacking north and south again to attack Hedong. Then the Jin army will completely unify the Yellow River Basin and have half of the Middle Earth. As long as this step is completed, the time when the Great Jin Kingdom is unified to unify Middle Earth will be very close.

Zong Han and Zong Wang looked at each other and laughed at each other, and they saw similar views.

"Liu Yu, when will Qian Dinggong's army arrive in Bianjing?" Zong Han asked.

"Early next month," Zong Wang said, "This army has arrived and will immediately start attacking Bianjing. As long as we take down Bianjing, we can gain a foothold in the Central Plains and then march towards Guan Luo."

"This is forcing Li Hu to recruit the main force to fight a decisive battle." Zong Han smiled, "Let's go and ask him to see if he has the courage to fight us."

"I don't think he won't fight to the final battle," Zong Bi sneered, "We'd better not place our hope of defeating him on the final battle. On the contrary, we should take advantage of his main force to attack continuously before he arrives, not give him any chance to fight to the final battle."
