Du Shisheng said with a smile: "It's not just about you? In the capital city, countless Jurchens are waiting for his movements. Wanyan Chenghui has a bit of a staid personality, and he can be regarded as a rare gentleman among the big gold ministers. As a result, Last year, he was publicly launched as an envoy to negotiate peace with the Mongols. After returning to the court, he was criticized by the central government and the opposition because of the harsh conditions. After suffering such a big loss, he cherished his feathers even more, and regarded his family's reputation more than his life. It's heavier, and at a time like this, it's not easy to get ahead."

"I see."

"I reckon that he is hesitating right now because he wants to wait for the important Jurchen ministers in the central capital such as Pu Sanduan, Wanyan Ali Busun, Natan Mojia and others to set an example; if the envoy is in a hurry, or let Someone ask Mr. Pu San, or give Wanyan Chenghui a step, such as rewarding Tongzhou defenders with money and food, and then I will go to Tongzhou once in the name of awarding rewards?"

"Hey..." Du Shisheng was familiar with the names of those important Jurchen ministers, and Guo Ning felt dizzy after hearing them.

He shook his head repeatedly and said, "You don't need to pay attention to the clay sculptures and wooden tires in Zhongdu City. In Tongzhou City, a prisoner who is trapped in a lonely city and only has three to five thousand troops under his command, what is it worth? I am also ashamed to let Mr. Jinzhi accompany you." He descends the steps?"

After thinking for a while, he summoned a follower: "Let Li Zixian draw up an order for me, with Shi Tianni as the recruitment envoy to the south of the central capital, Yeluke Fubaer, and Li Shouzheng as deputy envoys. Then, depending on the situation, advance to Zongzhou, Jinzhou and other places on Beijing Road, recapture Beijing Road and even Dading Mansion in Beijing, and open up contact with the Liaohai Defense Commissioner of the Ding Navy."

The entourage took a pen and paper to make a simple record on the horse, and then flew away.

This Li Zixian is Li Ying, the experience officer of Shuhu Gaoqi.

Ordinarily speaking, Shu Hu Gao Qi did such a rebellious and immoral thing, and the Zhu Jiu Clan would take it lightly, and Li Ying would inevitably be implicated.However, Li Ying and Zhang Rou had a deep friendship, and had disclosed confidential information from the DPRK and China to Zhang Rou several times.He is also from Shandong, and his wife lives in Weizhou.Previously, Zhang Rou secretly sent a letter asking Guo Ning to take care of Li Ying's family.

So after Guo Ning entered Zhongdu, he directly asked Li Ying to be his experience officer.Li Ying was a Jinshi in the fifth year of Mingchang, and he has a good literary talent. The victory document that was sent to Yidu and made Liang Chisheng read it several times was written by Li Ying.

Although Guo Ning won Zhongdu, the wars in various places on Zhongdu Road have not stopped.

The two generals Zhang Rou and Miao Daorun, at this time, were like beasts out of the guard, criss-crossing all parts of the central capital, regaining the key passes and military forts that had just surrendered to the Mongols not long ago, and smashing the Mongols' accompanying army.

Zhang Rou and Miao Daorun were originally Hebei heroes, and they also had prestige in the army of Zhongdu. On the day when Zhongdu changed hands, the strength of these two men expanded to more than [-] people, which was more than Guo Ning's headquarters.And Guo Ning ordered them to send troops to the north.

The reason is very simple, as a martial artist, there is no reason to just reap benefits without taking risks.Since the troops were sufficient, they had to fight tough battles. Since the Mongols had retreated, the two generals had to pursue them all the way. Mountain Province.

This large-scale mobilization of troops consumes a lot of food, fodder and supplies, which is why the city of Zhongdu feels particularly difficult to support.And Wanyan Chenghui guarded Tongzhou, despite the upheavals in Zhongdu, he did not respond for a long time. In fact, it affected Lushui's food lifeline.In Guo Ning's eyes, it was particularly unpleasant.

It's not that Tongzhou's military strength is really a threat.

Wanyan Chenghui was probably looking for a price, and in the entire Zhongdu city, there were not a few people waiting for Guo Ning to visit the thatched cottage and Qianjinshi horse bones.These people are used to Dajin's power and influence, and they think that no matter who comes to power, they are indispensable.

Perhaps in their eyes, Guo Ning, who came from a reckless background, used force only, and his foundation was particularly unstable. If he really wanted to achieve great things, he might have to ask for help from the bureaucrats of the Dajin Kingdom.

But with Guo Ning's background and position, how could he care about this?
He relied on spears and swords to bring order to the court, and relied on the iron bones in his hands; since the force was sufficient, he really didn't need to think about giving people any steps.In his opinion, if someone waited on the steps and was unwilling to condescend to come to the door, it must be because Guo Ning did not put enough pressure on him to let this person see the sharpness of the sword with his own eyes.

What's more, since Guo Ning has mastered the central capital, the future Dajin court will never continue to be the court of the Jurchens.If the Jurchens cooperate more, they can still get a few places to cover the scenes; if they don't cooperate, they will have their own places to go.

In Zhongdu City, the Mongolian army and Shuhu Gaoqi's troops wantonly burned and killed the day before yesterday, resulting in a horrifying death toll, among which the number of high-ranking officials and nobles of the Jurchens was extremely large.Now that the Dinghai Navy controls the central capital, it is inevitable that the law and order will be neglected. Occasionally, there will be some disturbances here and there, and a few groups of people will die.

As for outside the city of Zhongdu, it is even simpler. The war in the north of Zhongdu has not been extinguished, and the Ding Navy is in the south of Zhongdu.

At present, Shi Tianni, Yeluke Zuobaer and Li Shouzheng will send troops immediately.

The dispatch of this army immediately aroused the fear of some people.

Shi Tianying, Xue Ta Lahai, Yang Jiezhige, You Xingzong and other generals led their troops to besiege Zhigu Village. Because Chen Ran led his troops to support Guo Ning by water, the defenders were outstretched, and the attacking side had an advantage in strength. Get great play.On the day of Genghis Khan's defeat, they had already begun to compete for the wall of Zhigu Village, so that Tian Xiong, Chen Ran's deputy, was injured in the battle.

However, as news of the Mongols' failure continued to spread, Shi Tianying and others did not dare to attack again. The Navy contacted, trying to maintain their semi-independent status on Beijing Road.

But he never thought that Guo Ning had a reliable military force, and he didn't intend to recruit warlords without restriction, let alone agree to their demands.

When everyone was discussing how to deal with it, Brother Youxing from Bohai was the first to jump out and proposed to drive back Shi Tianni's troops, and then return to the Beijing Road separatist regime in order to swing between Dajin and Mongolia.Shi Tianying and the others applauded, immediately invited out the Mongolian supervising army who was under house arrest, and put on a stance to fight Shi Tianni's troops.

When Shi Tianni broke the siege of Zhigu Village, he was immediately supported by food and fodder from Shandong. He was full of confidence, and immediately raised his troops to press on, and the two sides fought for days.

It is also interesting to say that Guo Ning defeated the main force of the Mongolian army several times, using only more than [-] troops.However, this group of temporarily attached troops will fight a few final battles, but their strength has swelled to tens of thousands.The soldiers and horses of the two sides fought back and forth twice, and finally confronted each other in the area of ​​Shicheng and Yongji, bounded by Dangyu Mountain in the north and Shaliu River in the south. The entire battlefield was like a dense forest.

After two days of confrontation, everyone thought that there was going to be a decisive battle, but Shi Tianying, Brother Yang Jiezhi and others suddenly rose up again, and Kui Ye stormed Brother Youxing's Bohai Navy.After a scuffle, the nearly [-] Bohai Navy was defeated.Brother Youxing was furious, recruited the defeated soldiers, and planned to flee to Changli.Unexpectedly, a group of elite cavalry came from the direction of Zongzhou and Jinzhou, and they belonged to Xiao Mole, a subordinate of the Liaohai Defense Department.

It turns out that when Guo Ning entered Zhongdu, the Ding Navy in Fuzhou and Gaizhou had also been dispatched.As soon as the two armies collided, the Bohai Navy completely collapsed.Shi Tianying, Xue Ta Lahai, Yang Jiezhi and others killed all the Bohai Navy who were unwilling to surrender, and then contacted many important towns in Jizhou, Pingzhou, Luanzhou and other places to surrender together.

It only took ten days, the entire Zhongdu Road was completely pacified, and the power belonging to the Mongolian army was wiped out, but the force still in the hands of the Jurchen, only the three people in Tongzhou City remained. Five thousand remnants.

Before this kind of unreasonable force is crushed, what can Wan Yan Chenghui do?
In desperation, he led three or five servants, left Tongzhou, and came to Zhongdu to meet Guo Ning.
