Hu wanted command of the battlefield in Hebei, and he was bound to win. As long as this was the Northwest Army, he would have the opportunity to slowly take over the Northwest Army for himself. Otherwise, he would not go to Hebei to fight, nor would he be able to escape the crimes of Li Gang, Zhong Shidao, Yue Fei and others. The law of the Song Dynasty did not allow it. The basic national policy of the Song Dynasty was to use culture to build military military forces and generals would rule them. The Song Dynasty would never allow a general to serve as the commander of the Hebei imperial guards, let alone grant him the command of the battlefield.
"If you want to obtain command of the battlefield, then you will incorporate the Tiger and Lieutenant Army into the Imperial Army as a whole to show your loyalty to the Song Dynasty." Zhang Bangchang was not afraid at all and immediately put forward the conditions.
Li Hu was furious and vetoed.
When Taizu conquered the world, there were soldiers from vassal states and imperial guards. Later, Taizu released the military power with wine. One of the solutions to the vassal states was to incorporate the soldiers of the vassal states into the imperial guard system. The imperial guard system concentratedly reflected the characteristics of the Great Song Dynasty military system. Once the soldiers of the vassal states were included in the imperial guard system, the general did not know the soldiers and the soldiers did not know the generals, and the vassal states would be over.
Zhang Bangchang's intention is obvious. If you hand over the Hu Lie Army and give up the vassal states, the court will meet your requirements. This is a scam. If Li Hu handed over the Hu Lie Army, can he still need command from the court to the battlefield? It's a joke.
Li Hu scolded Zhang Bangchang for being so angry. Zhang Bangchang knew that it was the result, so he was not angry. He secretly thought about what method to solve the disaster of Li Hu. In fact, there is only one way, that is, join forces with the Northwest people, kill Tong Guan first, control authority, and then use the Northwest people to defeat Li Hu and completely eliminate the disaster.
Zhang Bangchang looked at Zhe Yanzhi who was thinking and fell into deep thought. The biggest difference between him and the Northwest people was whether to fight or to reconcile. If the two sides wanted to join forces, the first thing they had to do was solve this problem, and there was no basis for cooperation. But now the Northwest Army was no longer able to do so. With their strength, they could not defeat the Jin people, and it was even harder to escape Li Hu's vicious hands. The Northwest people had to face the reality and negotiate peace to win a breathing time. This was also the only way for the Song Dynasty to protect the country's destiny.
What did the emperor think? Now that the emperor has got rid of Li Hu, he will go southeast immediately and defend half of his country. If he can agree to Li Hu, he will agree. At present, he can no longer protect the territory north of the Yellow River. When the Northwest Army suffered heavy blows, if the Song Dynasty wants to defeat the Jin people and live in Hebei, he can only rely on Li Hu and the Hu Lie Army. However, the consequence is that he is a puppet, and the Song Dynasty is in name only. If Li Hu ascends the throne and becomes emperor in time, he can only give up the country and the country, and he is determined to get rid of Li Hu.
"I promised you," the emperor said solemnly, "I trust you, you will definitely defeat the Jin people. I plan to put the camp here, but the Yellow River."
This is the truth. Li Hu controlled the command of the war. What else did he do in Hebei? He was controlled by Li Hu when he arrived in Hebei. Only by staying south of the Yellow River can he get rid of Li Hu. Then he went southeast with Tong Guan. As for Hebei and the Central Plains, he left it to Li Hu. Play whatever you want. I don’t care. But if you don’t agree, then you can’t get the command of the battlefield. Without the command of the battlefield, you can’t control the Northwest Army.
Li sneered and thought to myself that you ran away. What am I playing? You still believe in Tong Guan until now. It's so terrible. Tong Guan has decided to abandon you. You are my puppet. You can't even run away.
The emperor agreed. The others remained silent. This matter was resolved.
"Zhong Shuai is seriously ill. You can ask him to go back to Bianjing to recuperate." Since Li Hu was determined to control the Northwest Army, of course he had to give up the old Zhong Shuai. "As for Li Gang, he should be demoted. But he is familiar with the battle situation in Hebei. You can ask him to work at our Marshal's Mansion."
In these people's eyes, Li Gang is definitely a native of Li Hu. Since Li Hu wants to protect Li Gang and value Li Gang, who has any objection? Li Hu is very strong now. He can eat Bian Jing in one bite. No one is willing to be in trouble with Li Hu in such a small matter.
Li Hu immediately proposed to move the capital again.
In fact, the topic of discussion today is to move the capital.
The move was resolved, and everything was resolved, but the move involves the direct interests of all parties. No matter how strong Li Hu was, before everyone turned against each other, no matter whether the emperor or the prime minister would agree to Li Hu to move the capital to Luoyang. When the capital was moved to Luoyang, the emperor and the court were controlled by Li Hu. Then is the Song Dynasty still the Song Dynasty?
"Love, if the Tiger Lie Army defeated the Jin thieves and defended Hebei, will we still move the capital?" The emperor never let go of this matter. As soon as he let go, he went to Luoyang and became a puppet early on.
"Even if I defeat the Jin thieves, I will move the capital."
Li Hu's arrogance made the monarch and ministers extremely angry, and the matter was broken.
Yuwen Xuzhong sighed secretly. The battle situation in Hebei is not good for the Song Dynasty, the Northwest Army, the emperor and the court, but it is very beneficial for Li Hu. Otherwise, he would not dare to be so tough now, and he looked like a tragic vassal state.
Yuwen Xuzhong had to come forward to smooth things over, "The most urgent task is not to move the capital, but to fight the Jin army."
"Wrong, the prerequisite for a decisive battle with the Jin army is that the capital must be moved first, and the safety of the emperor and the court must be ensured." Li Hu sneered, "If I defeated in Hebei, the Jin army will leak down and capture Bianjing, then wipe out Bianjing and the Supreme Emperor.
All the princesses and concubines in the harem were plundered, and all the prime ministers and officials in the Song Dynasty, all the scholars from the Imperial Academy, the Imperial College, and the young women from Bian Jing were taken to Huanglong Mansion. Can the Song Dynasty still maintain the country's fortune?"
Everyone was shocked to change their color. Li Hu was a threat to threaten their necks with a knife.
Anger burned in the hearts of the monarchs and ministers of the Song Dynasty. I have said long ago that Li Hu was a disaster for the Song Dynasty, and it was finally fulfilled today. Li Hu finally couldn't bear it and showed a ferocious face.
Zhang Bangchang stared at Li Hu, wishing he could tear him apart and eat him. This is the second Dong Zhuo. Once the capital is moved, the Song Dynasty will be over, and it will be completely over. Thinking of Dong Zhuo's troubles in the Han Dynasty, Zhang Bangchang couldn't help but fight a cold war, "It's not a matter of one word to move the capital. It is very complicated, involves all aspects, is shockingly consumed, and even affects the danger of the country's destiny."
"Do you still know that the country's destiny?" Li Hu laughed, "Hundreds of thousands of Jin troops are in Hebei, only 600 miles away from Bianjing. If you gallop quickly, you can reach the city of Bianjing in three days.
"Li Hu's eyes were cold, everyone's faces slowly swept across, and their tone suddenly became cold, "Do you hope the Jin army will besiege Bianjing for a second time and then hand over Bianjing to send it over?"
"You can obviously stop the Golden Thieves..."
"Why do you say I can stop the thief?" Li Hu interrupted Zhang Bangchang angrily, "That was the Northern Expedition, more than 100,000 Song troops were defeated twice by the Liao army. I asked if the Song army was powerful or the Liao army was powerful? At the beginning of the year, the Jin army went south for the first time, and the kings were responsible for as many as 200,000. Why did it still fail to stop the court from cedeing land and paying compensation? I guarded the territory for the Song Dynasty in Daibei, but the court joined forces with the Jin people to attack Datong. Why? Today the court is still discussing peace. If I go north to block the Jin army, you give me a knife behind the back, can I still survive? If I die, who will stop the Jin army? Will I continue to discuss peace? Give them Bianjing, give them gold, silver and treasures, and meet all their requirements, can the Song Dynasty protect the country's destiny?"
Li Hu was roaring, and the king and his ministers were shocked by Li Hu's momentum, and Li Hu even hit the dark, shameless and despicable corner in their hearts, and they were speechless.
"Moving the capital is more important than the defeat of the country?" Li Hu asked Zhang Bangchang sternly, "If the Jin army captured Bianjing, what else do you have? What else can you save? Why do you have to regard me as your biggest enemy between the Jin thieves and me?"
Everyone was stunned, even Yuwen Xuzhong was dumbfounded. He never dreamed that Li Hu would tear his face apart. Could it be that the breakup was just for the emperor, the court and the firm disagreement of the capital?
Li Hu firmly wanted to move the capital, but the emperor and the minister of the prime minister firmly disagreed, and both sides parted in disagreement.
Chai was standing outside the tent, and Li Hu's roar fell into his ears. He was very surprised and couldn't understand. After accompanying Li Hu out of the camp, he couldn't help it and asked carefully: "General General, there are many solutions to this matter. Why do you want to tear your face?"
Li Hu stopped, "I am fighting the Jin army now, how likely is it to win?"
Chai Yun blurted out without thinking, "There is no chance of winning at all."
"Why?"
"These people will definitely kill you," Chai Yun said, "You have told them that you are the biggest enemy in their hearts, more terrifying enemies than the Jin people, so they would rather believe in the Jin people, and would rather deceive themselves and associate with the Jin people than kill you."
Li Hu nodded with a smile, "So, I want to kill them first, solve the problem of Bianjing first, and then fight the Jin army to a decisive battle."
Chai Yun widened his eyes in surprise, "Do you know the consequences? We can't do it now."
"Of course I won't do it myself." Li Hu smiled, "The changes in the battle situation in Hebei are beyond our expectations. Who would have thought that the 100,000 Northwest Army on both sides of the Hulu River would lose more than 70,000 people, which caused the Northwest Army to plummet, forcing them to fight against the water. I can be sure that they will take action soon, but they are not Tong Guan's opponents, so we have to help them, make them evenly match and fight both sides."
Chai Yunruo realized something, "So, are you going to force the emperor to move the capital?"
"Yes, only by forcing them to move the capital can Tong Guan be anxious and choose the only correct way for him. Zhang Bangchang must join forces with Zhe Yanzhi. The people in the Northwest have the help of the civil servants of Bianjing. First, they must solve Tong Guan, and then control their authority and have the strength to compete with me. The only way for both sides to achieve their respective goals is to launch a mutiny." Li Hu laughed, with a cold murderous aura on his lips, "When both of them are injured, it will be my turn to play."
Chai Yun thought for a long time and felt that this was the only way, so he couldn't watch them massacre the Tiger and Martyrs.
"Do you really think you want to move the capital?" Chai Yun asked an irrelevant question.
