    An error occurred while processing private documents In May, the Jurchen reinforcements increased.  Its main forces were concentrated on the Tanzhou front line and launched frequent attacks on Niulan Mountain.  On this day, Li Hu rushed to the front line of Niulan Mountain to discuss strategies to defend against the enemy with generals such as Dong Zhongsun, Hu Jiayong, and Wang Yao.  Although the reinforcements of the Jin Army arrived one after another, the total strength of the troops on the Youyan battlefield was still not comparable to that of the Tiger Army. This resulted in the Jin Army having to take joint actions and attack simultaneously on the Tanzhou and Jizhou battlefields. However, regardless of whether it was Tanzhou or Jizhou,  Neither Wanyan Xiyin on the Zhouzhou battlefield nor Wanyan Zongjun on the Jizhou battlefield dared to let go, because in the past battles, the Jin army was repeatedly surrounded by the superior strength of the Tiger Army. The two learned a painful lesson.  Be cautious during the attack, lest you make the same mistake again.  "With the strength of the Northern Tiger Army, I am absolutely sure to stop the Jin Army at Niulan Mountain." Dong Zhongsun was full of confidence, "However, continuing to fight like this is not an option. Our army cannot reverse the deadlock, let alone capture Yanjing in the short term.  "Li Hu stroked his beard and smiled, "What advice does Dong Shuai have?" Dong Zhongsun looked at Li Hu sitting opposite, and the scene when he first met Li Hu suddenly appeared in his mind.  At that time, Li Hu was just a little gangster who knew nothing. He was holding a broken flag and a one-armed iron eagle under his hand. Luo Sinan also joined the Tiger Army because of fun or sympathy.  The three soldiers were Li Hu at that time.  In the blink of an eye, more than ten years have passed, and Li Hu has grown into a king who dominates the Middle-Earth. He has more than 500,000 troops under his command, making him invincible and invincible.  Dong Zhongsun was filled with emotion and felt a little dazed for a moment. He stared at Li Hu and was speechless for a long time.  Li Hu looked at him strangely, "Dong Shuai, what's wrong with you?" "I remembered the past." Dong Zhongsun smiled and said, "The first time I saw you in the village, you were still a half-year-old child." Hu Jiayong  He and Wang Yao looked at each other and smiled, and couldn't help but think of the little commander-in-chief who used to be a gambler, fun-loving, timid, and just a decoration. Now the little commander-in-chief has become the king of Middle-earth, controlling the destiny of the world. Thinking about it, he also sighed with emotion, like a dream.  .  Li Hu also thought of the past, with many warm memories in his heart and a smile on his face.  "The Yanjing War is over, and China and Turkey have been unified. Should the commander-in-chief also become emperor?" Hu Jiayong asked excitedly.  Li Hu smiled and shook his head.  "Commander, how long do you want to wait?" Wang Yao saw Li Hu shaking his head, thinking that Li Hu was going to refuse again, and his expression immediately changed.  Just as Li Hu was about to explain, Dong Zhongsun also lost his face, pointed at Li Hu and said: "Don't look for reasons, there is no reason, there is no reason, you are the emperor of Middle-earth, our emperor." "I understand your feelings, but  The war has not ended yet, and China has not yet been unified. Let¡¯s not mention this matter for the time being.¡± Li Hu said with a smile, ¡°There are many old officials of the Song Dynasty in the Tiger Army. What they think is unknown at the moment.  This is a hidden danger. In order to ensure that we can win their loyalty, we must at least unify China. This is the most basic condition." Dong Zhongsun, Hu Jiayong, and Wang Yao looked at each other and nodded in agreement.  As long as Li Hu agrees to ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor after the Yanjing War is over.  That's enough to establish a country and open up borders, and other things will be solved immediately.  "Business is true." Li Hu straightened his face and asked Dong Zhongsun, "Does Commander Dong have a good strategy to defeat the enemy?" "The old method is to concentrate superior forces to surround a part of the Jin army and annihilate all the enemy forces, so that the deadlock can be broken.  " Dong Zhongsun said, "The Khitan people are unreliable. We can't rely on others to win. It's better to rely on our own down-to-earth victory. " "I heard that the commander-in-chief gave all the Tibetan prisoners to Brother Yeluma. It's true.  "?" Wang Yao asked following Dong Zhongsun's words.  "It's true. I gave it to him. There are 20,000 to 30,000 people, all equipped with weapons, which can suddenly increase the strength of the Khitan people." Li Hu said with a smile, "The strength of the Khitan people has suddenly increased, and it has  After getting my promise, my confidence has increased, and I will definitely take a gamble on the battlefield in Shangjing. "Commander, this may be a danger." Hu Jiayong said worriedly.  "You are overthinking." Li Hu said, "My thoughts are completely opposite to yours. It is precisely because I am worried that the Khitan people are not strong enough that I spare no effort to help them. I brought the Tibetan captives from the Central Plains to Youyan for the right purpose.  To give them to the Khitan people? "Use Tibet to control Tibet?" Dong Zhongsun thought.  "Exactly." Li Hu said, "Perhaps you are not very clear about how long it will take for China to regain its national strength after repeated heavy losses. You all know that the strength of the Song Dynasty has always been very strong, but it has lost the power of the Khitan and the female  Under the continuous attack of the real person, the army was defeated. Why? "The army has no fighting capacity."It's worthy of a blow.  "Hu Jiayong replied. Li Hu shook his hand and said, "The main army of the Song Dynasty is the Northwest Army, but when the Northwest Army is in our hands, it is invincible. What is the explanation for this?  " Hu Jiayong hesitated and said nothing. Wang Yao thought of Li Hu's changes and the anti-corruption storm raging in China. "Commander, it's because there is a problem with the national policy of the Song Dynasty.  "    "Very correct.  "Li Hu praised, "The failure of the Song Dynasty lies in the failure of national policy, so we need to change, and change cannot be completed in five years or ten years, nor can it be completed in one generation or two generations, so from my point of view, China and the  It will take at least twenty to thirty years to restore national strength.  During this period, we can only defend ourselves against our enemies outside our borders.  " "We are restoring our national strength, and the strength of the Jurchens is also growing. The Jin army may invade at any time and undermine the revitalization of China. Therefore, we need to cultivate a powerful force in the north to contain and counter the Jurchens.  And this force is the Khitan people.  " "The Khitans have perished, and their strength has suffered unprecedented losses. If they want to rebuild the Liao Dynasty, it will be extremely difficult. The desert tribes will try their best to obstruct it, and the Jurchens will also attack crazily. For a long time to come, the lives of the Khitans will be in danger.  It is very difficult, so we must take this long to increase the strength of the Khitans, change the situation in the north, and let the world structure develop in a direction that is beneficial to China.  " Li Hu elaborated on his northern strategy and vision of the world structure. Only then did Dong Zhongsun, Hu Jiayong, and Wang Yao have a clear and complete understanding of the future northern situation. " If we want to achieve our goals,  As far as the Youyan war situation is concerned, maintaining a stalemate is not a bad idea. Of course, it would be better if they could win one or two battles on local battlefields.  "Li Hu said, "Commander Yue once planned to concentrate his forces to defeat Wanyan Zongjun on the Jizhou battlefield, but Wanyan Zongjun was very cautious and unwilling to fight us.  In this case, let's change it and defeat Yan Xiyin first, drive the Jin army back to Zhongjing, and destroy Wanyan Gao's confidence in defending Yanjing.  ¡± = In mid-May, the situation in the north began to change. The Khitan Emperor Yelu Longqing and the Prime Minister Yelu Dashi gathered troops in the desert, while another Prime Minister Yelv Mago assembled an army of 50,000 in Daibei, and jointly defeated Lingbo and Tibet.  The army and Shiwei people launched an attack on the front line of the Lightning River. The situation in the Jin Kingdom was critical. The main force of the Jin Army fought fiercely with the Hu Lie Army on the Youyan battlefield.  Discussing strategies to defend against the enemy, Zong Han quickly returned to Huanglong Mansion from Shangjing and proposed to abandon Yanjing and exchange the land of the seven states in front of the mountain for a peace treaty with Li Hu. Wanyan Zongqian and Gao Qingyi rushed there day and night with the imperial edict.  Youyan. = In mid-May, the Hu Lie Army, under the command of Yue Fei and Dong Zhongsun, assembled its main force at Niulan Mountain and suddenly launched a fierce attack on the Jin Army. Although the Jin Army was well prepared, it was unable to resist due to insufficient strength.  On May 22, Wanyan Xiyin received an urgent message from the Huanglong Mansion and sent a letter to the Hulie Army asking for a truce and peace.  In the hands of Li Hu, Huang She and Yuan Ye happened to come from Chang'an at this moment. Li Hu's silence made Chang'an very uneasy. Even Luo Sinan could not predict Li Hu's thoughts. In desperation, he had to let Huang She and Yuan Ye.  Rushing to the Yanjing front line "You two arrived just in time.  Li Hu smiled and said, "The Jurchens want to negotiate peace."  And I need a peace envoy.  Make preparations and strive to reach an alliance with the Jurchens before winter comes and regain Yanshan Mansion.  " If we negotiate according to Li Hu's overall idea, it will be very difficult, and it will even involve the check and balance of power in the Jin Kingdom. This is an almost impossible task. " When will the commander return to Chang'an?  "Huang She asked tentatively. "After Yanshan Mansion is recovered, China and the country are basically unified, and I can go back.  Li Hu smiled and said, "You have come all the way from Chang'an just to hear a word from me."  Some time ago, the situation in the north did not meet my expectations. I couldn't say this yet, but I can say it now.  "Huang She and Yuanye were surprised and happy, looking forward to it. "How about the end of the year?  Li Hu asked, "Is there enough time?"  " "It's coming in time, it's definitely coming in time."  Huang She said excitedly, "There is no problem in Chang'an, and there is no problem locally. As for the abdication, we can start preparations from now on."  " "Don't be anxious, end the Yanjing War first, complete the Northern Expedition, and wait until the news of the reunification of China and Turkey spreads throughout China, the next thing will be very simple.  "Li Hu said, "You negotiate with the Kingdom of Jin first. After reaching a preliminary agreement, the Vice Minister will return to Chang'an and start preparations for the founding of the country.  ¡± = 6.Last night, Wanyan Zongqian and Gao Qingyi arrived in Yanjing.  Li Hu put forward the conditions for peace negotiation. The Jin army must return Youyan, including Pingzhou Road, otherwise there will be no possibility of an alliance and peace negotiation between the two sides.  The conditions for peace proposed by Huanglong Mansion are that the two sides return to the "Sea Covenant" and the Jin Kingdom returns Yanshan Mansion. At the same time, the Song Dynasty must abide by the covenant and the two countries join forces to attack Khitan.  There are too many differences between the two sides, but the situation in the Jin Kingdom is not good at the moment. In order to get out of the dilemma of fighting on two fronts as soon as possible, concessions must be made. The offensive capabilities of the Tiger Army have also reached their limits, and Yanshan Mansion can only be won through negotiation.  , concessions must also be made.  In mid-June, Wanyan Zonghan heard that the negotiations in Yanjing had reached a deadlock, and after careful consideration, he decided to go to Yanjing in person to negotiate with Li Hu.
