Five hundred and fifty Western Xia to envoy
The news that the Liaodong Corps conquered Huining Prefecture was sent back to Zhongdu on the seventh day of the twelfth lunar month.
After learning the news, Su Yonglin was very happy.
Since the demise of the Jin Kingdom in May, Su Jue led the Liaodong Corps to launch three consecutive attacks in half a year, winning three consecutive victories, bit by bit, eating up Wanyan Yong and the remaining Jin forces in Liaodong, but he did not let him live until the second year.
The victory of the Battle of Huining Prefecture means that there is basically no force in the entire Liaodong that can threaten the Restoration Army.
The large-scale military operation in Liaodong can come to an end, and then it will be a small fight with the level of public security warfare, ending the small tribes in the primeval forest.
Su Yonglin could build Liaodong with confidence and boldness, build Liaodong into the second revolutionary base, gradually develop this fertile black soil, and at the same time accumulate enough military and economic strength, and begin to look to the west.
To the west, the Restoration Army regime had already bordered the Xixia region with the Hedong region by occupying the Xijing Road area of the Jin Dynasty, and through the Henan region, it also completely confronted the Guanzhong Jin army, directly threatening the Guanzhong gateway Tongguan.
It is unclear how many of the total troops in the Xixia side are. There are at least about 100,000 Jin troops in Guanzhong.
At present, the Hebei Corps, who is responsible for preventing the Western Xia, was the Hebei Corps under Han Jinggui, and the Henan Corps under the Guanzhong Jin Army was Zhang Yuejing. Su Haisheng led the Qilu Corps to assist in defending these two corpses. Whoever has any difficulties will directly help?
Three corpses had more than 200,000 troops formed a solid western defense line, confronting the remnants of the Jin army through the Yellow River and the mountains and ridges.
This is how the Western Front of the Restoration Army regime was arranged.
With such an arrangement, Su Yonglin was not worried about the troubles that the Guanzhong Jin army or the Xixia army could cause.
Moreover, the Jin army in Guanzhong is now a loser, and the Western Xia army is no longer as strong and good at fighting as Li Yuanhao's era. Unless both sides work together and fight against him in concert, it will cause him some trouble.
But can they really join forces to fight against the Restoration Army?
Can we really achieve so-called sincere cooperation if we have ulterior motives?
I am afraid that this degree of union is not as good as that of the Liberation Army and the Southern Song Dynasty's friendly agreement, and it can break down in minutes.
But looking at it separately, they all have certain strength.
Su Yonglin discovered that the current leader of the Jin army in Guanzhong was Tu Shan Hexi, a famous general of the Jin Kingdom. This man was very good at fighting and repeatedly repelled the counterattack of the Sichuan War Zone of the Southern Song Dynasty against the Guanzhong area. The famous Song general Wu Lin suffered a lot of losses at his hands, but he could not defeat him in the end.
The Emperor of Xixia is called Li Renxiao. Although Su Yonglin is not familiar with this person, he is an emperor who has successfully ruled Xixia for decades. He has a stable status and there is no major turmoil in the country. It can be seen that this person is at least not a mediocre and incompetent person.
On the Southern Song Dynasty, the famous general Wu Lin led the Sichuan army to eye the enemy, which poses a strong threat to the land of Shaanxi.
Su Yonglin knows much more about Wu Lin than Li Renxiao, knowing that he has strong military capabilities, is good at defense, and is a master of defense.
So simply looking at the current three forces in Guanzhong area, I found that each of them is not simple.
As a fourth-party force, Su Yonglin is certainly not simple, and he has a wonderful feeling that he is the one who is not good at coming.
Having said that, the situation in Guanzhong is still quite strange. When the battle in the eastern battlefield was in full swing, Guanzhong did not move.
While the battle in Liaodong was in full swing, Guanzhong still remained unmoved.
When the Jin Kingdom had basically declared its destruction, Guanzhong still remained unmoved.
Tu Shan Hexi controlled about 100,000 Jin Guanzhong Front Army, which seemed to be completely out of the world, and did not intend to interfere in the war in the eastern region. It was not until Su Yonglin sent troops to try to capture Tongguan that he was resolutely counterattacked by him.
Thinking about it now, Tongguan has not been defeated, and it is probably not a good relationship with Tudan.
But Tu Shan Hexi is now like a wild wolf with restrained hands and feet. There are Xixia in the north and Southern Song in the south. In all senses, he cannot fight against the Restoration Army in the east, unless he obtains the guarantees of the Southern Song and Western Xia at the same time.
But what is the difference between this guarantee and waste paper?
I'm afraid that it wasn't that he had just started fighting with the Restoration Army, but the Southern Song and Xixia would send troops to Guanzhong and stab him in the chrysanthemum.
Su Yonglin felt that Tu Danhexi had never dared to take the initiative until now, and must have been worried about this, so he only dared to defend and wait for the situation to change.
But how will the current situation change?
In Su Yonglin's opinion, Tu Dan Hexi could not reach any cooperation with the Southern Song Dynasty. He would not believe Wu Lin, and Wu Lin would not believe him. If Wu Lin lived for one day, he would not be able to relax his military defense against the Southern Song Dynasty.
So if he wants to make any breakthrough in diplomacy, he can only reach an agreement with Xixia.
Compared with Song, the relationship between Jin and Xixia seems to be better.
But it's just relative.
Su Yonglin is confident in this regard.
Because on the ninth day of the twelfth month, Su Yonglin received news from Su Haisheng, commander of the Qilu Corps, saying that the Western Xia Emperor Li Renxiao secretly sent an envoy to try to come to Zhongdu, hoping to meet Su Yonglin.
Interestingly, Su Yonglin has not had the idea of fighting Xixia yet, but Xixia has come to fight him.
Su Yonglin wanted to know what Xixia thought, so he allowed the Xixia envoys to come to Zhongdu, and he would keep it confidential and protect it.
On December 23, the Xixia envoy arrived in Zhongdu. Su Yonglin sent Tian Guizi to welcome him, brought the Xixia envoy into Zhongdu, and let them stay in the inn. On December 25, he met with the Xixia envoy Ren Chunzhong and the deputy envoy Wu Daochong.
Because this trip was a secret meeting, Su Yonglin did not announce the news to the public. He also met Ren Chunzhong and O Daochong in his private study, not in the main hall.
Ren Chunzhong and Ou Daochong also expressed their understanding of this and had no objection.
However, they were obviously stunned after seeing Su Yonglin.
"What? Am I weird?"
Su Yonglin asked with a smile.
"No, no, I just didn't expect that the General was so young and heroic."
Ren Chunzhong quickly made up for it and tried to hide his misogyny.
Su Yonglin waved his hand and said that he didn't care, so Ren Chunzhong stepped forward and handed Su Yonglin the secret letter from the Western Xia Emperor Li Renxiao he was carrying.
Su Yonglin opened the secret letter and found that there was another secret letter in the secret letter, which was the letter of the letter.
One of the letters was written by Li Renxiao to Su Yonglin, and the other was written by Tu Shanhexi to Li Renxiao.
Su Yonglin first read the letter Li Renxiao wrote to him.
In the letter, Li Renxiao expressed his admiration for Su Yonglin's great martial arts, expressed his great admiration for Su Yonglin's courage to rise up and overthrow the brutal Jin Kingdom, and then told his past of humbleness towards the Jin Kingdom since he became emperor, and he was extremely sad.
Afterwards, the topic changed. He said that it was a forced choice for Xixia to respect the Jin Kingdom as the superior country before, not because of any entanglement with the Jin Kingdom. Li Renxiao himself also expressed admiration for Su Yonglin, hoping that Su Yonglin would not feel unhappy about the relationship between Xixia and the Jin Kingdom's former vassal states.
This is all forced.
Finally, Li Renxiao said that he was willing to deliver a letter from the apostle of the Shaanxi Army of the Jin Dynasty, Shan Hexi, who was the leader of the Jin Dynasty, to him hope to join forces with him to attack Su Yonglin, in order to prove his attitude of breaking the sword with the Jin Dynasty.
He also said that if Su Yonglin wanted to attack the Jin army in Shaanxi, the Xixia side would be willing to send troops to help and work with the Restoration Army to destroy the Jin Kingdom and expel these barbarians.
Then Li Renxiao also hoped that Su Yonglin could open a border tent as soon as possible to facilitate the Xixia merchants and the Liberation Army to carry out mutual markets.
