An error occurred while processing private files. It's the middle of winter. The Yellow River is about to freeze. The fierce armies in Hedong, Central Plains and Shandong are ready to go. The military supplies for the Northern Expedition have basically been raised. The conditions for attacking Hebei are basically mature. The only obstacle is the anti-corruption wave that is sweeping across China. As the situation worsens, local governments are helpless and panicked. The central government agencies, due to fierce internal struggles, have not yet come up with a solution and can only watch helplessly as the situation continues to worsen. "Have you decided to start the Northern Expedition immediately?" Luo Qinghan's tone was hesitant. Now is obviously not the best time for the Northern Expedition. Li Hu has already ignited this "fire", and the fire is getting stronger and stronger. Even if he has great ability, he cannot put out the fire in a short period of time. Li Hu seems to be trapped in a cocoon. Li Hu looked at them, smiled slightly, stroked his beard with his right hand, and tapped the table with the fingers of his left hand. After thinking for a moment, he turned to Yuan Ye who was standing behind him, "At present, where are the situations more critical?" Take a step forward and spread out the map on the desk. A circle was drawn in the Hanzhong area of ??Luoyang, Kaifeng, Nanyang, Xiangyang and Sichuan. "These places, including Jingzhaoyin, have many schools and Confucian scholars, and the spread is very fast. It is estimated that by the end of this month, the situation will further It worsens and spreads to Longxi in the northwest, Chengdu in Sichuan and Sichuan, Changsha in Jinghu, Qizhou in Shandong, Yingtianfu and Yangzhou in Jianghuai, Jiangning in the south of the Yangtze River, and Suzhou and Hangzhou in Zhejiang and Zhejiang. If nothing else, after the New Year , Chang'an will be able to receive emergency documents from all over the country. By February and March, Hangzhou, the farthest place from Chang'an, will probably be in trouble. " The smile on Li Hu's face became thicker, and he didn't look nervous at all. . "Commander, even if Confucian scholars and students from all over the country make trouble, it is just to write letters to advise and gather people to discuss, and it will not cause huge turmoil." Seeing that Li Hu intended to condone this matter, Dong Xiuo had to sternly warn, "But We have too many opponents, and they will take the opportunity to instigate ordinary people to cause trouble. Once the people's emotions are angered, it will inevitably affect the local government offices. Not only will the lives of local bureaucrats be worried, but they will also be unable to handle official business normally. I am afraid it will also implicate landlords and businessmen everywhere. , the situation will get out of hand. As a result, the prestige of the imperial court will be gone, all government agencies will be ineffective, farming, industry and commerce will be severely damaged, and the finance will be in a desperate situation. "Luo Qinghan, Hou Gai, and Zhe Keqiu are all in the same situation. With an uneasy look on his face, he nodded repeatedly after hearing Dong Xiaoxiu's persuasion, agreeing with his analysis and judgment of the situation. Li Hu laughed. Everyone was even more frightened. They felt that Li Hu, who was sitting across from him, was very unfamiliar. It was like he was separated by a layer of clouds and mist. This feeling became stronger in Li Hu's unbridled laughter, which once again gave them a fear, a fear of being trapped in darkness and unable to predict the future. "Therefore, I want to go to the Northern Expedition, and I will tell the world to use all the power of the world to launch a massive Northern Expedition." Li Hu's voice was strong and powerful, but in the ears of Dong Xiuo, Luo Qinghan and others, it sounded like a majestic It was as shocking as a war drum. It turns out that Li Hu had a backup plan. I have already thought of a solution. He used Jin studies to promote the development of Guan studies, used Confucian scholars of Guan studies to transform academic theories to trigger a debate on private ownership of land, and then used insistence on private ownership of land to leverage the old system of public ownership of official land, thus eliminating the shortcomings of public ownership of official land. Restrictions were enlarged, and the corruption of the bureaucratic class immediately became the main culprit for the collapse of the Song Dynasty and the devastation of all life in China, pointing all current contradictions to the old bureaucracy in China. The old bureaucracy has become the target of public criticism, and the situation is extremely critical. A great chaos is coming. The prestige and authority of Emperor Zhao, the Chang'an court, and various government agencies have suffered a heavy blow as a result. But this is exactly what Li Hu needs, and Li Hu is It is to attack the Emperor Zhao, to attack the old bureaucratic forces of the Song Dynasty, to completely overthrow the old bureaucratic class of the Song Dynasty and the old policies stubbornly adhered to by these old bureaucrats, so as to cleanly deal with his opponents and ascend the throne for himself Proclaim yourself emperor and get ready to establish a new dynasty in Middle-earth. However, the chaos of the current situation is a fact. As Dong Xiuo said, the old bureaucrats of the Song Dynasty deliberately acquiesced, condoned and instigated Confucian scholars, including ordinary people, to cause trouble, in order to blackmail Li Hu and the Hu Lie people who actually controlled the power, forcing them to Bow to the forces of the old bureaucracy and preserve the power and wealth possessed by the old bureaucracy. On the one hand, they use Confucian scholars and ordinary people to attack the opponent; on the other hand, they use Confucian scholars and ordinary people to threaten their opponents. Both sides can either compromise and share the interests equally; or they can die and both sides perish. As the situation worsens, it becomes more and more unfavorable for both parties. At this time, Li Hu raised the banner of the Northern Expedition. The banner of "Kill the golden thieves and recover the mountains and rivers" was raised, and the banner of the unification of China and the mainland was raised. The power of this banner can be imagined, and it can win the victory in a short period of time.With the support of people all over the world and the hearts of people all over the world, Li Hu's prestige will reach its peak in an instant, and the Tiger Army will become the hope and pride of the Chinese people. Li Hu and the Tiger Army will be engraved in this moment forever. In the hearts of the Chinese people, it is recognized by the Chinese people and will always be integrated into the blood of the Chinese people. "All the efforts and prices paid by Li Hu and Hu Liejun before this will receive the highest reward at this moment, and their desire to return to China will become a reality at this moment. On the contrary, Emperor Zhao and the old bureaucrats of the Song Dynasty ruined China and brought serious disasters to the people of China. Thousands of innocent creatures were turned into bones. All of this was the fault of Emperor Zhao and the Song Dynasty. The sins of the old bureaucracy were infinitely magnified in front of the achievements of Li Hu and the Tiger Army, and in front of the banner of the Northern Expedition raised high. But at this very moment, the sins of China's Confucian scholars and ordinary people The anger was deliberately aroused by Li Hu, in their deafening roars. The prestige of Emperor Zhao and the old bureaucrats of the Song Dynasty was trampled under their feet. There was no possibility of them turning over again. They would become the history of China. Dong Xiuo, Luo Qinghan, Hou Gai, Zhe Keqiu, and Yuanye looked at Li Hu in front of them, and their hearts surged. They suddenly had the urge to worship. Li Hu ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, and the Hu Lie people established a new dynasty. This is an arduous task that is likely to take a long time. At least it has not yet seen the possibility of becoming a reality. However, Li Hu succeeded in just a few months. Inside, turn your hands to become clouds and turn your hands to become rain. Turn something out of reach into something within reach. It is foreseeable that when this massive anti-corruption wave sweeps across China, but when Li Hu leads the Tiger Army to the battlefield of the Northern Expedition, this anti-corruption wave will become the overthrow of Emperor Zhao and the old bureaucracy and system of the Song Dynasty. Tide, what the Chinese people need are heroes who can protect them, not demons who drink their blood, eat their flesh, and finally bury their lives alive. Li Hu and Hu Lieren will become China's heroes in the Northern Expedition. The patron saint of China, and the next thing will be a matter of course, including Chinese Confucian scholars, they will not oppose or reject Li Hu and the Tiger Army led by him. Li Hu and the Tiger Army will soon become the true rulers of China. Dong Xiuo suddenly knelt down and bowed with great salute, "I am willing to follow the king, lead the army to the north, kill the gold thieves, and regain the country." Luo Qinghan, Hou Gai, Zhe Keqiu and Yuanye followed closely behind, and they all fell to the ground. "I am willing to follow the king in the Northern Expedition and complete the great cause of unification." Li Hu laughed and waved his hands at them, "Get up, everyone, this matter is not as simple as imagined, and the most critical thing is the relationship between the two. Cooperation must be flawless, otherwise we will dig a trap for ourselves. "We are all veterans who have been in politics for many years. Some things only need a few words and they will become clear to us. . What Li Hu is worried about now is not that the tide is getting worse, but that it is not crazy enough to coordinate the Northern Expedition at the right time. "What if it gets out of control?" Luo Qinghan was still worried. "If it gets out of control and rebellions occur in various places, can the army still go on the Northern Expedition?" "So, we need to go to the Northern Expedition immediately, tell the world about the Northern Expedition, and guide the world's Confucian scholars and ordinary people The people poured their anger on the imperial court and the old local bureaucrats, and at the same time inspired their patriotic enthusiasm to restrain their emotions to the greatest extent, so as not to take the opportunity to rebel and cause trouble in China. "This is easier said than done. "It's too difficult to get up." "Of course, nothing in the world can be achieved overnight," Li Hu said with a smile, "Every step we take from the beginning of the Dashan Alliance to the present is on thin ice, but this time I am sure that there is a big chance. Be sure, because all Chinese are eager to regain their territory and restore China's glory. We can do it, and we can win the Northern Expedition. The victory of the Northern Expedition is the guarantee of stability in China. " "Then, in the eyes of the king. Come on, when is the best time for us to go on the Northern Expedition?" Zhe Keqiu asked eagerly. "Before the end of the year, we must announce the Northern Expedition to the world." Li Hu said, "In the first month, we will gather the army, and in February or March, we will launch the attack." "If the imperial edict is announced to the world in advance, then the Northern Expedition will not be sudden. , the Jin army will be ready to fight." Hou Gai said worriedly, "This is obviously not good for our army's attack." "A decisive battle, the Northern Expedition is actually a decisive battle. I need a decisive battle, and one is enough to tell the Chinese. The Tiger Army is invincible in the decisive battle. I want to use the victory of this decisive battle to tell the Chinese people that the Tiger Army and I have become the pillars of China and the Great Wall of China." Li Hu waved his arms with a rainbow of momentum. The five ministers bowed to accept the order. Li Hu was right, the Northern Expedition was a decisive battle, and Li Hu needed a vigorous decisive battle to finally establish his lofty status as the king of Middle-earth.
