It was soon March of the Western calendar.

Originally, the Jin army captured Bianliang on January 9, the Western calendar, which means that it has been nearly two months since then. However, the first month of the lunar calendar is still not yet released. Last year was November, but the weather has begun to warm up. The most threatening cold period during the siege of Bianliang has passed, because Yang Feng defeated the local tyrants and provided a large amount of cloth to the refugees in the city. Even the skins hidden by the wealthy and noble families were recruited by him. Therefore, except for the large number of people frozen to death in the first few days, basically no one has frozen to death after that. It can be said that the most difficult period at this time has passed.

In fact, the Jin army no longer attacked the city.

After all, they could not conquer Bianliang at all, and the only thing they could do was to siege for a long time. However, this siege was not good for the Jin army. Not only were their army more than 100,000 were dragged down, but there were also countless troubles.

First of all, there is insufficient food.

They do have insufficient food.

Their grain cannot be transported from the north, so they can only rob them nearby. Although the farthest partial division of the Jin army has captured Bozhou, it is still difficult to maintain the plundered grain for more than 100,000 troops, and the local governments and landlords must have a lack of interest in rescuing the officials. However, if the Jin army wants to rob their grain, they can still show a certain combat effectiveness. In addition, although some cities surrendered to them, these cities have no food at both ends and two ends.

In short, the Jin army was becoming more and more difficult at this time.

They are different from the Bianliang City, which has millions of stones of grain stored there. You should know that according to the stones of the Song Dynasty, it is hundreds of thousands of tons of grain, and even if two million people eat it for a year, there is no pressure.

But this is accumulated by canal transportation in peacetime.

Most of them come from grain-producing areas such as Jianghuai and Sichuan. What the Jin army can control at present is nothing more than a part of Henan. How much can they plunder even if they plunder it? What's more, in this occupied area, they are intertwined with the Song army, and even the rebels that have risen often regain the city. This problem is becoming more and more serious. In fact, those rebels are their main enemies. It is obvious that the performance of the people is much stronger than the Song army. The final result is that they are surrounded and the besieged are extremely difficult.

There is also a plague.

Especially after the weather is warm, the plagues are more frequent.

There are basically more than 100,000 strong men with no health and epidemic prevention, and countless horses and livestock are crowded together. It is pure nonsense to say that there is no plague. Any cholera can make these Jurchen soldiers who are like tigers, horses, and dragons turn into plague chickens.

It should be said that the Jin army should withdraw at this time.

But the problem is that they are unwilling to retreat in shame. Not only did they not capture Bianliang to harvest countless gold, silver and jewelry, but they also suffered more than 10,000 casualties. By the way, their internal struggle was also very serious. Neither Nianhan nor Olibu could bear the consequences of failure. Last time, at least a verbal promise was made. Zhao Huan kept the emperor of the Jin Kingdom and asked his uncle to sever the three towns of Taiyuan, Zhongshan and Hejian to give the Jin Kingdom, and the annual monies increased and military expenses were paid. Although they did not fulfill it later, the Song people did not trust, at least they could say they had won.

But this time there was no verbal promise.

Moreover, two groups of envoys were killed and the other had their ears and noses cut, which was completely humiliating.

Nianhan and the others were also very conflicted at this moment.

If you can't beat it, you won't beat it. It's too embarrassing to go back and there are still troubles. I give up Bianliang and go to beat other places...

There is no other place either.

Luoyang has been captured by them.

To be precise, it was accepted. Wang Xiang, the chief general of the West Road, fled without a fight, and gave the Western Capital Luoyang to the Jin army. However, at this time, he was recaptured by Zhai Jin and Zhai Xing's Zhongyi army in western Henan, and killed the Jin army, who was the former governor of Zezhou. After surrender, he was awarded this position by his new master. In addition, this guy was a descendant of Gao Huaide, so many of the descendants of famous generals in the early Northern Song Dynasty did not deserve their ancestors in this war. Moreover, the new chief general of the West Road, Sun Zhaoyuan, had also returned with Fan Zhixu's army. Although Fan Zhixu was defeated like the original, Sun Zhaoyuan retreated to Luoyang and defeated a Jin army that counterattacked Luoyang.

However, there is no longer much use for the Jin army.

Because Luoyang has no food.

Moreover, if Bianliang has not conquered, it will likely face counterattacks in Bianliang City and attacks by the Song army in Hebei. It will also encircle the Central Song army and Wang Xiang, who fled south. It is not worth taking such risks for a city that cannot bring value.

The rest is to attack Guide to the south.

But if this is before the besiege of Bianliang, you might have to try it. After all, Guide has no dangerous passes, and it does not need to face various passes like Luoyang, but now it is very dangerous, because Zhao Gou's army has arrived in Jeju, with a total of 80,000 Song troops under his command, and they all have certain combat effectiveness. After all, Yue Fei, Han Shizhong, and Yang Yizhong are all in this Song army. If the Jin army attacks Guide for a short time, they must face the attack from the back. If the Song army in Bianliang attacks at that time, Zong Ze, stationed in Huaxian, attacks across the periphery, even with the confidence of the two of them, they know that there is a risk of collapse. Moreover, Zong Ze has defeated their troops attacking Kaide many times in recent times, but they have too few troops to dare to attack the city of Bianliang.

But this opponent is growing very fast.

Anyway, they are worried too!

But the Song monarchs and ministers in the city of Bianliang were also worried.

"What is King Kang doing?"

Yang Feng said to his hand-drawn map.

"He has an army of 80,000, so why didn't he go straight to Bianliang but to Jeju? Is he going to Nanjing to watch the fun?"

He said without hesitation.

This was obvious, although Zhao Jiumei sent someone to send the letter to Lawan...

In fact, Bianliang was not surrounded, and a city with a circumference of fifty miles could not be surrounded. The Jin army was mainly stationed in the southeast corner, and the cavalry patrolled the surroundings. However, no matter whether the people inside were scuba or the people outside were infiltrated, they were nothing more than putting down the rope at night and slipping away in the darkness. Behind the city walls were refugees. As long as there was no Jin army's uncle test knife or bandits robbery, it was easy to say, so the information inside and outside was not cut off.

Zhao Gou said that the Jin army was powerful and his troops were too small. Moreover, Fan Zhixu was defeated, so he went to Guide for the time being to urge the reinforcements in the south.

When the army arrived, they headed north from Guide.

Of course, this is pure nonsense.

By this time, the real army of the Song Dynasty was actually the imperial guards. The Northwest Imperial Guards were the most capable of fighting, followed by the Hebei Imperial Guards, and the Bianliang Imperial Guards, and there were only a few imperial guards in Jiangnan. The main ones were the wing soldiers who had become bandits and troops. The only purpose of the only ones now was to do chores. No matter how many such troops came, they would just give heads to the Jin army. Therefore, Zhao Gou was purely nonsense. To put it bluntly, he was afraid that the Jin soldiers would not dare to come. Of course, Yang Feng's words obviously meant something.

"The national teacher was joking, and King Kang was also considering everything."

Cao Fu, the official of the Privy Council, said.

"Wanquan? Is it that I want to be Shao Ling with 80,000 elite soldiers sitting down and watching my father and brother be trapped and shrinking. "

Yang Feng said.

This is very serious.

"The national teacher is careful about his words. Does the national teacher want to alienate the relationship between the official family and the King Kang brothers?"

Shangshu Zuo Cheng Feng shouted.

"Feng Xiang, don't swear by others. You have to be responsible for what you say. I am over 60 years old and I have been holding armor and holding swords. I am nothing more than the passionateness of the official family towards our Song Dynasty. I have no children and no daughters. Naturally, I have to say anything. Is the current situation not like the siege of Taicheng back then? The official family is trapped, the strong vassal commands are commanding the troops outside. King Kang swept the elites of Hebei a hundred miles away and stood there for three months. The former stationed troops in Daming, and the latter moved to Dongping. Now he is even more circling Bianliang and heading south to Guide. Isn't this very confusing? Or can Feng Xiang give me a better explanation?"

Yang Feng roared fiercely with his sleeves.

"Well?!"

Feng shut up.

Obviously, he could not argue with Yang Feng on this issue.

Although he did not think that King Kang had any other ideas, the biggest possibility of going around Bianliang Guide was to fear the enemy, which was the best explanation. In fact, in his opinion, Zhao Gou dared to run to Bianliang was a miracle, but the current situation was indeed like the siege of Taicheng back then.

"Your Majesty has Shao Ling, and I have Zhongli. If you are not loyal and filial, how can you be pacified?"

Liu Jin's words can be applied completely!

The kings and vassal states of Nanliang, led by King Xiao Yi of Shaoling, sat down and watched Hou Jing and his remaining soldiers besieged Taicheng. More than 300,000 troops were still holding their troops and watching thousands of people besieging their father and brother. They just watched for half a year. After all, they just thought that his father was killed and the official crown prince Xiao Gang was killed, so that they could inherit the country? Similarly, Zhao Gou could also sit down and watch the Jin soldiers besieged the city or even conquered Bianliang. His father, brother and a group of brothers died. Then, he, the only heir, naturally succeeded to the throne. It is hard to say whether he has such an idea at the moment, but he has a very motive to do so. Although Yang Feng's words were a little direct, they were real. Sometimes the matter of the imperial family was enough.

"The national teacher is worried too much, King Kang is my brother, will not be like this!"

Zhao Huan said expressionlessly.

"I hope so!"

Yang Feng sighed pretending to be a silence.

His performance was still very successful. Whether Zhao Jiumei was afraid or had other ideas, at least the nail in Zhao Huan's heart has been laid, which is enough.

"Your Majesty, why not send someone to urge me again."

Sun Fu said.

"Officials, I am willing to go this trip for the official family. At this time, King Kang is probably coming to Guide. I will go and see what he wants? If King Kang has a strange intention, I will capture the official family with his own hands. If King Kang is afraid of the enemy, I will blame him for his righteousness. If he fails, he will use the imperial edict to remove his military power. If someone dares to fight, he will lead the army. I think Zongze is good, and he is still more loyal to the official family during this period."

Yang Feng said immediately.

"No, the national teacher is in charge of the safety of Bianliang, how can he leave?"

Feng said.

Then almost all the civil officials opposed it in unison.

Yang Fengruo turned his head with interest and looked at these guys with a strange smile. It was obvious that these civil officials had other ideas. Logically speaking, they should be eager to let him get out quickly. Even if they get out for the time being, they could make the Dukes of Gun breathe a sigh of relief. Anyway, the Jin army could not defeat Bianliang. Besides, if Yang Feng left his Liujia divine weapon, he would definitely stay.

But why do they object?
