Chapter 120: Before the Jin Kingdom Battle

It had been three months since news came from Western Xia. When the news that the capital of Western Xia, Xingqing Fu, had been contributed and the Western Xia ruler had been executed reached the ears of the Jin envoys who were negotiating, they were completely enraged.

Since the founding of the Great Jin Kingdom, it had been invincible, first wiping out Liao and then capturing the two emperors of the Song Dynasty to the Northern Kingdom city, and the emperor of the Northern Song didn't even dare to fart, and even had to bow down and pay tribute to the Great Jin.

As a result, their Great Jin Kingdom was actually played like a fool by the barbarians on the grassland. This group of people was truly too arrogant.

"Khan Nie, please give our Great Jin a reasonable explanation for Mongolia's unauthorized initiation of war, otherwise the million-strong army of our Great Jin Kingdom will inevitably trample over the entire Mongolian grassland."

The Jin envoy stared at Nie Huaishang with uncontrollable anger. Nie Huaishang raised his head and looked at the envoy with a calm expression, saying: "Then let's go to war. Bring your million-strong army of the Jin Kingdom here. Since you Jin people entered the Central Plains, you have been implementing the so-called 'population reduction' policy on the grassland from time to time, and how many innocent Mongolian people have been slaughtered by you? But now it's different. The Mongolian people have stood up, and your Great Jin cannot control us."

"If you want to fight, we will accompany you in a fight."

"Good, good, good. Since you are so unappreciative, then I have nothing to say. Let me tell you, the army of our Great Jin Kingdom is boundless, like a vast ocean, and compared to it, you are nothing but a pile of fine sand."

The envoy snorted coldly and strode away.

Watching the envoy leave, the commander of the Fifth Brigade, Hudu Si, said with dissatisfaction: "The people of the Great Jin Kingdom are truly too arrogant. Since the founding of our Revolutionary Army, we have swept across the grassland, broken Western Xia, and conquered every battle. I really don't understand what qualifications they have to look down on us."

The Secretary of the Hohhot Municipal Committee smiled and said: "Brigade Commander Hudu Si, the Jin Kingdom of more than a hundred years ago has swept across the world since its founding. As far as I know, except for Yue Fei and Han Shizhong in the south, no one has made them suffer. They have dominated this land for a hundred years, so arrogance is a matter of course. It's just that this time they will definitely pay the price for this arrogance."

Regarding the words of these two people, everyone in the tent expressed agreement. Admittedly, they had just divided their troops and only had fifty thousand troops in their hands.

And the military strength that the Great Jin Kingdom could mobilize, they had just learned from the Han revolutionary area on the Jin Kingdom side, was at least four or five hundred thousand troops.

Four or five hundred thousand against fifty thousand is really an ocean drowning fine sand.

But I don't know why, they actually felt a little regret. Why did the Great Jin Kingdom, with a million troops, only send a mere four hundred thousand?

Remember that at the beginning of the founding of the Jin Kingdom, their Taizu Wanyan Aguda led them to sweep the Liao army of seven hundred thousand with twenty thousand troops.

Now they swept the four hundred thousand army of the Jin Kingdom with fifty thousand troops, making them seem inferior to Wanyan Aguda.

In the Jin court, the Emperor of the Jin Kingdom was enraged after learning that Mongolia had faked negotiations and secretly sent troops to wipe out Western Xia.

"Too arrogant. Duji Sizhong, you immediately lead three hundred thousand troops to conquer Mongolia. At the same time, I will let the garrisons in the areas of Wusha Fort, Hengzhou, and Changzhou assist you in wiping out the Jurchens. Calculated this way, it will be four hundred thousand troops. And right now, Mongolia still has a part of its military force attacking Western Xia. Even with that kind of firearm, they cannot challenge our four hundred thousand army." The Emperor of the Jin Kingdom said this with great confidence.

The Mongolian cavalry must at least split off tens of thousands of cavalry to fight Western Xia, which proves that the military strength on the grassland is only forty or fifty thousand.

Admittedly, the firearms used by the Mongols are far superior to their Great Jin Kingdom, but at the beginning of its founding, Mongolia didn't even have enough blacksmiths to forge its stirrups and sabers, so how many such firearms could they forge?

A small number of such firearms cannot affect the overall situation when facing the overwhelming four hundred thousand army.

"This cannot be done, Father Emperor." Wanyan Wanyan Honglie was anxious when he saw his father emperor wanting to mobilize the country's military force to go on an expedition to Mongolia.

"Father Emperor, now our Great Jin has revolutionaries still eyeing us covetously. If they are not eradicated, then the day our Great Jin's four hundred thousand army goes on an expedition will be the day they rise up in rebellion."

Hearing this, Wanyan Wanyan Hongxi snorted coldly and said: "Things have reached this point, and Sixth Brother still won't give up, sparing no effort to smear my achievements. Is Sixth Brother wanting to seize the throne early, so he can pass the throne to that Han bastard?"

"You!" Wanyan Wanyan Honglie was so angry that he glared at Wanyan Wanyan Hongxi, then hurriedly knelt toward the Emperor of the Jin Kingdom and said: "Father Emperor, after I committed such a big mistake, I have no intention of taking the throne. But the 'Chongmin' school around Third Brother is truly too dangerous. Their organization is highly strict, not something that the Ming Cult or Beggar Sect of the past can compare to. They not only open schools in the countryside to teach, but also have spontaneously organized peasant associations, and every village has their guerrillas."

"Hahahaha." Hearing Wanyan Wanyan Honglie's rhetoric, Wanyan Wanyan Hongxi laughed loudly: "What did I just hear? The guerrillas stationed in the countryside are too dangerous? Sixth Brother, are you trying to laugh me to death so you can become the Crown Prince of the Great Jin Kingdom? Father Emperor, the guerrillas in the village can wipe out the Great Jin? These people are struggling to deal with bandits when they unite, and you actually think they can wipe out the Great Jin? Sixth Brother, I find that you have become more and more superstitious since you were placed under house arrest."

"Don't worry, even if you bring me down, Father Emperor will not make you the Crown Prince. The Great Jin's rivers and mountains will absolutely not fall into the hands of a Han person."

"Enough, Wanyan Hongxi, don't say any more." The Emperor of the Jin Kingdom was completely enraged.

This Wanyan Wanyan Hongxi doesn't know that family ugliness should not be made public. You say such shameful things in the court every few days. Isn't this stepping on the face of the Great Jin on the ground?

And Wanyan Wanyan Honglie, this son he loved the most in the past, now looks more and more annoying the more he looks at him, if it weren't for the fact that his mother was the woman he loved the most.

He even wanted to circle and imprison him for a lifetime and never see him again.

"Father Emperor, now that a great war is imminent, I recommend Jizhou Inspector Wu Siming to transfer to Hengzhou Inspector, Weizhou Inspector Huangfu Qi to transfer to Changzhou Inspector, Shenzhou Inspector Bai Bai Yide to transfer to Fuzhou Inspector. During their tenure, these three people have achieved remarkable political achievements. After taking office, the taxes they handed over not only doubled but their official reputation in their governance is also very good. With these three people in charge, it will definitely guarantee the logistics and grain of the large army."

Wanyan Wanyan Hongxi said as he presented his memorial.

The Emperor of the Jin Kingdom didn't look at it and agreed directly, praising: "I have an impression of these three people. Not only are they capable officials, but they are also clean officials. That Huangfu Qi, two months after taking office, swept away the banditry that had always been rampant in Shenzhou. And that Bai Bai Yide, he really governed Fuzhou well. Shenzhou can be called the number one state in our Great Jin Kingdom. And Wu Siming, I have heard of repairing county schools, but this is the first time I have heard of repairing village schools and opening up the mountain gate to this extent."

"What makes me admire the most is that these three people are big officials like inspectors, but their families only have one driver. I heard that their clothes are patched, right? When I summon them, I must reward them well. Being clean is a good thing, but they can't be this poor."

"With these three people in charge of the army's grain and logistics, I can sleep soundly." ===== CHAPTER 121 =====
