Li Hu spread the map on the table.,,

"You are from the descendant of the mountain and have been in the army for many years and are very familiar with this place." Li Hu smiled, "I want to ask you, what do you think about the current situation?"

Geng Shouzhong's eyes showed hesitation and wanted to speak but stopped. Geng Shouzhong was about forty years old, tall and strong, with rough appearance, and sharp eyes under his thick eyebrows. In addition to the coldness unique to warriors, these eyes also hid a hint of shrewdness and cunning, which made his smile look a little hypocritical, uncomfortable, and unconsciously alert.

"Don't be restrained, just talk." Li Hu waved his hand carelessly, "I'm going to come here mainly because I want to hear your opinions."

"General Commander..." Geng Shouzhong immediately realized that the title was inappropriate, so he quickly changed his words, "Master..." Then he felt that it was still inappropriate. Li Hu was the King of Han now and should be called the King of the Great King, but the King was the Khitans' name for the King of the Bible. What did the Song people call the King of the Lord? Just when he was hesitating, Li Hu spoke, "Call me General Commander, you can also use the Prime Minister."

Geng Shouzhong immediately decided to call General General. Li Hu joined the Song Dynasty and was the King of Han of the Song Dynasty. The title of General General General was definitely changed. The title of General General originated from the Liaodong Yijun. In the future, he could only call him privately, and he was an old subordinate or close person. This time he used this title to bring his relationship with Li Hu closer, which may be beneficial to him in the future.

"General General, the situation has developed to this point. The Jurchens will not be satisfied with a Northeast road. Daibei is bound to win for them." Geng Shouzhong said, "It is temporary for the Jin army to stop attacking now. They are also weighing the gains and losses of going to war with the Song Dynasty. But in my opinion, the Jurchens are about to attack. They must seize Xijing before the Song army captures Yanjing, otherwise they may lose the best opportunity to seize the North."

Li Hu nodded and asked him to continue talking.

"The Song army will definitely be able to take Yanjing, and then enter Juyong Pass. Such a crisis in Datong can be resolved." Geng Shouzhong said. "But if Datong is preserved, it does not mean that the Jurchens will give up, because it is obvious that after the Song Dynasty recovers the mountain, it will immediately go north to Yunnei and fight to Yinshan. Thus, with the Great Wall as the boundary, a solid northern defense is established."

"The attack of the Song Dynasty not only hindered the Jurchens' intention to unify the north, but also endangered the safety of the Daxia Kingdom, and also posed a threat to the deserted people. Therefore, if nothing unexpected happens, in a very short time, the Jurchens will use the Song Dynasty to threaten the entire northern region and form an alliance with the Daxia Kingdom and the deserted people. The three families will fight against the Song Dynasty together."

This was the first time Li Hu heard this argument, which immediately aroused Li Hu's alertness.

In Li Hu's view, the Khitans still have some strength. Yelu Mage once said that he was sure to reorganize the Liao army. Since the Liao army could still persist, then the Liaoxia alliance could still be maintained. The desert and the desert can still comply with the Khitan emperor for the time being. In this way, three families may form an alliance to fight against the Jurchens. But Geng Shouzhong's words completely overturned the Li Hu's idea. The reason is very simple. Xijing is not Li Hu and the Liaodong Yijun army now. But the Song Dynasty. That is to say, starting from Li Hu raising the battle flag of the Song Dynasty. For the northern Chinese, the most threatening place is not the Jurchens. But the Song Dynasty.

The dispute over local interests on the battlefield of the North suddenly changed from a dispute between the Jurchens and the Liao, Xia and Han dynasties to a dispute between the Northern Territory and the Chinese. It turned into a dispute between the North and South.

Li Hu took the battle flag of the Song Dynasty in one fell swoop. Although it temporarily alleviated the crisis inside and outside Datong, it also triggered a greater crisis.

Li Hu felt a little dizzy on his own. He thought he had done something wrong. It was a fatal mistake. Raising the Song Dynasty battle flag could only alleviate a little crisis. But it brought it to the rebel army a very terrible disaster.

Li Hu's face became a little ugly. His hands were trembling involuntarily on the map. In order to hide his nervousness, Li Hu clenched his fist and gently smashed it on the table. He cursed in a low voice, "My mother-in-law, I'm cheaper again."

Geng Shouzhong was a descendant of the mountain. The descendants of the mountain were surrounded by the Song Dynasty, Dangxiang people and the desert. Therefore, the situation in the northern part of Dai was more thorough and far-reaching. Compared with Li Hu and his subordinates, Li Gang and Yuwen Xuzhong. Geng Shouzhong's views were of course more convincing.

Li Hu originally wanted to ask whether he had not formed an alliance with Liao and Xia to fight the Jurchen together, but then he thought this idea was too naive and ridiculous. Since ancient times, once the borders of the Han people reached Yinshan, the war between the Northern Lu and the Chinese people would break out. Either the Chinese expedition to the Northern Lu or the Northern Lu went south to invade, this war would definitely be fought. The Dangxiang people of the Daxia Kingdom and the Jurchens of the Dajin Kingdom were still blocking the Bu people far away in the desert, the Wugu people, and the enemy lie were all Northern Lu. Driven by common interests, they would naturally form an alliance and naturally join forces to fight the Song Dynasty to prevent the Song Dynasty from expanding its territory to Yinshan and threatening their survival.

"How much time will it take for the Jurchens, Dangxiang people, and the deserts to form an alliance to fight against the Song Dynasty?" Li Hu asked.

"It depends on how long the Khitans can last." Geng Shouzhong said, "I can be sure that the Jin army will soon divide their troops to attack Yunnei. Once they drive the Khitans into the desert, the Jurchens will then form an alliance with the Daxia people, join forces to fight Xijing, and at the same time form an alliance with the desert. On the one hand, they will work together to eliminate the Khitans, and on the other hand, they will pull them under their own positions and unify the north as quickly as possible."

"I guess how long will it take?" Li Hu asked again.

"This..." Geng Shouzhong was not easy to answer. He said ambiguously, "The Khitan Emperor lost the hearts of the people, and the Liao army was almost wiped out in the Battle of Dezhou. They had nothing. It would be God's blessing to be able to persevere in Daibei until the rainy season comes."

"If the Khitans can last until the rainy season, then will the Jurchens join forces to fight against the Great Song Dynasty be delayed until after the rainy season?" Li Hu asked anxiously. "That's for sure. The rainy season is about two months, which just gives the Jurchens time to form an alliance. After the ** month, we will probably face all the northern enemy."

"In other words, four months later, the Jurchens will form a foreign alliance, and the foreign army will arrive in Daibei, right?"

"How can it be that fast? I mean, the situation in Daibei will only develop like this." Geng Shouzhong shook his hand, "The Jurchens and Dangxiang people should be aligned quickly, but the desert is not necessarily the same. Because there are Khitan troops in the desert, and the Khitans will not give up the desert in order to survive. If the desert wants to break free from the enslavement of the Khitans, it will take some time. In addition, the desert has a grudge with the Jurchens. Every time the desert rebelled, the Khitans would recruit the Jurchens to suppress the rebellion, so the hatred between them is very deep, and the Jurchens want to form an alliance with them. It is very difficult. Unless the Jurchens are indeed strong and powerful enough to conquer the desert, the desert will not surrender to the Jurchens."

Li Hu frowned slightly.

According to Geng Shouzhong, the Jurchens and Dangxiang people could soon form an alliance, but as long as the Khitans are still in the desert, even if the desert fringemen form an alliance with the Jurchens, they will not go south to Daibei, because they will first defeat the Khitans. But the question is, if the Khitans lose the desert, will these desert fringemen go south to Daibei?

"The people of the Song Dynasty have not yet reached Yinshan. The Jurchens and the Desert Bodies have another feud, so even if they form an alliance with the Jurchens due to the situation, the land of Daibei may not be very large." Geng Shouzhong said, "On the contrary, they will covet Daibei and want to become the heroic ruler of the northern world. They may attack the Jurchens behind the Jurchens."

"In other words, no matter whether there are Khitans or not, the Jurchens and Dangxiang people will join forces to beat us. And the deserts may beat the Jurchens, right?" Li Hu asked.

Geng Shouzhong nodded, "In my opinion, the Khitans will not lose the desert, otherwise they will be exterminated. They should be able to persist in the desert and form an alliance with the deserted men to attack the Jurchens, but the premise is that we cannot fight to the Yinshan Mountain. If the army of the Song Dynasty reaches the Yinshan Mountain, then the Jurchens, Dangxiang people, Khitans and the deserted men must join forces to fight the Song Dynasty. In the face of the survival crisis, the Northern Barbarians will work together and the enemies will become brothers."

Li Hu pondered for a long time and said with his finger map: "In your opinion, the Jin army will currently attack Yunnei with its main force to eliminate the Khitans, and at the same time form an alliance with the Dangxiang people, and then join forces to attack Datong. If the Jin army defeats the Khitans before the rainy season comes and form an alliance with the Dangxiang people after the rainy season ends, then three months later, we will have a decisive battle with them in Datong."

"It's the land." Geng Shouzhong said, "If you want to delay this decisive battle, the best way is to take advantage of the Jin army's attack on the Yunlin area and launch a counterattack on the Datong line, which will severely damage the Jin army. This will help the Khitans persist in Daibei. The Khitans persist and join forces with the Song Dynasty to attack the Jurchens. Then the alliance between the Jurchens and the Xixia people will inevitably be delayed, because the Xixia people do not know whether the Jurchens have the power to defeat the Song Dynasty. The Dangxiang people have to wait and see for a while before they make a decision."

"Counterattack?" Li Hu looked at the map and asked, "Where is the most suitable place to counterattack?"

"Kill the Tiger's mouth." Geng Shouzhong said, "The terrain of Kill the Tiger's mouth is very steep. The mountains on both sides confront each other. It is adjacent to Tangzi Mountain in the east and Dabao Mountain in the west. There is an open Cangtou River Valley between the two mountains, forming a narrow corridor about three miles long. This is a natural pass and a good place for a decisive battle. We will put the battlefield here."

"The terrain of Zhenchuan Fort is relatively flat, especially on both sides of the Zhenchuan River, which is conducive to the attack of the Jin army." Geng Shouzhong continued, "This battle must first be started at Zhenchuan Fort, which made the Jin army mistakenly think that we put our main force on the front line of Zhenchuan Fort, and when the Jin army attacked the tiger's mouth with a side army, we would give it a fatal blow."

Li Hu smiled slightly and asked, "Which battlefield would you like to fight?"

Geng Shouzhong's heart was beating slightly, realizing that Li Hu might want to let him lead his troops to fight, he immediately said, "Kill the tiger's mouth."

"Okay," said Li Hu, "Part of the new recruits you recruit are used to supplement the injuries of each army, and part of them are used to form the Yisheng Army. I will give you three generals for the time being, what do you think?"

Geng Shouzhong was overjoyed and hurriedly knelt down to thank him, "General General, I have a bunch of old subordinates, can I..."
