One morning a few days later.

Zhao Ji had just finished his morning dynasty here, and had just returned to the minister's study room to sit on the dragon's chair.

Then the eunuch guarding the door announced:

"The eldest princess of Daliao Kingdom, Yelu Nanxian, is here."

"At this time, I'm asking to see you outside the door."

Such a scene immediately made Zhao Ji a little surprised:

Na Yelu Nanxian, it was only a mere twenty days since he left here last time.

Why are you back so soon?

Could it be that the war taking place in Daliao has really reached an extremely urgent level?

Although Zhao Ji was still confused in his heart, he didn't waste too much time in front of him.

He answered casually and invited Yelu Nanxian who was guarding the door to come in.

Although this beauty is still as pretty and graceful as the last time she came here.

But in that expression, Zhao Ji could also vaguely see a hint of exhaustion.

Obviously, the other party was in a hurry this time.

Before Zhao Jidang could speak first, Yelu Nanxian suddenly said:

"His Majesty the Emperor of the Song Dynasty, my lord has fully agreed to all the requirements of His Majesty the Emperor of the Song Dynasty."

“But I don’t know when His Majesty the Emperor of the Song Dynasty will be able to send troops for reinforcements?”

Zhao Ji stared at Yelu Nanxian blankly for a while:

"Have the great Jin army and horses already attacked the capital of your Liao Kingdom?"

Yelu Nanxian did not continue talking about this issue.

Instead, he turned around and urged:

"But I don't know when His Majesty the Emperor of the Song Dynasty will be able to send troops?"

Zhao Ji lowered his head and pondered for a while, and couldn't help but secretly said:

Judging from the relationship between the Song and Liao kingdoms, if we allow the Liao Kingdom to be destroyed by the Jin Kingdom now, it will be very difficult for our Song Dynasty.

But it really doesn't do any good.

Since this is the case, I should send troops here as soon as possible.

But now, those tanks have not been built yet.

If we suddenly send the soldiers of the Song Dynasty to the front line, we may not be able to take much advantage in the battle with the Kingdom of Jin.

But in this situation, they had to send troops to help the Liao Kingdom resist the invasion.

If that's the case, then let's do it this way:

"Princess Yelu, our country agrees to your country's request for joint troop dispatch."

"Moreover, we can also send 15 troops at a time."

"However, our troops and horses are not familiar with the terrain and need to travel long distances to fight in other countries."

"It is also inconvenient to take the initiative to attack the Jin army as the main force."

"We should provide support and assistance to help your country of Liao quell the war."

"And all the military expenses, food and wages for this troop dispatch will come from your country."

"If Your Highness, Princess, agrees to these conditions, then I will order the army and horses to be trained and set off at a selected date."

Yelu Nanxian frowned:

"Your country only sent 15 troops and horses, and also provided side assistance to help our country resist the invasion of the Jin Kingdom?"

"Isn't this kind of support too small?"

"His Majesty the Emperor of the Song Dynasty, do you think you can..."

Yelu Nanxian was suddenly interrupted by Zhao Ji just halfway through his words:

"I'm very sorry, Princess. Don't talk about your Liao Kingdom right now. Even here in the Song Dynasty, we are suffering from various internal crises."

"A few days ago, I just put down a group of people here who carried out a large-scale assassination operation against me."

"And the mastermind behind that assassination operation came from three groups of rebel forces within our Song Dynasty."

"No matter which group of the three forces, the number of soldiers under their command is no less than more than [-]."

"Although the current assassination attempt by the three groups has failed, who can predict that the leaders of the three groups will not be so angry that they will launch a joint attack on our capital city of the Song Dynasty?"

"What if by then, this expectation really comes true, and most of our troops are sent to fight in your country?"

"Princess Yelu, can you imagine what kind of crisis our Song Dynasty would encounter under such circumstances?"

"So, this decision is the best solution that our Song Dynasty can make."

"If you are still not satisfied, Princess Yelu, then I have no other option."

Although Yelu Nanxian at this time did not really agree with what Zhao Ji said.

But at the moment, he himself couldn't change anything.

What's more, for the Liao Kingdom today, it would be great if the Song Dynasty could send troops to help them quell this war.

As for how many soldiers and horses they can send, they no longer dare to ask for too much.

As soon as Zhao Ji's order to mobilize troops was sent to the military camp, Zhong Shidao received a request to lead troops.

Regarding this, Zhongshi Dao was naturally very happy.

After all, he has never led troops since his military power was reduced more than ten years ago.

With his face full of joy, he even brought his younger brother Zhongshi Zhong with him.

But the two brothers only heard about it after they hurried to the military camp.

He could not bring any of the Ping'an Village and Liangshan troops and horses that were already under his command.

Today, we can only select 15 troops and horses from the Imperial Guards in the capital to go out with the two marshals.

Moreover, when fighting against the Dajin Army, it can only serve as an auxiliary force and cannot participate in frontal combat.

As a result, Master Zhong and Dao inevitably felt like they couldn't enjoy themselves to the fullest.

But now, since such an imperial edict has been passed down, the two brothers, as ministers, can only passively accept it.

But even so, it is still more free and comfortable than living in the capital for more than ten years, doing the kind of leisurely civil service work.

Therefore, after receiving such an order, the two generals just wondered in their hearts for a while before executing the military orders one after another.

The execution speed of these two brothers is really fast.

It only took one day to quickly select 15 soldiers who met the wishes of their two generals from the nearly one million imperial guards in the capital.

After only a quick rest for one night, he went to Daliao Kingdom with the envoy team brought by Yelu Nanxian early the next morning.

……

The army led by Ke Zhong Shidao had just left the capital of the Song Dynasty for three days.

The spies of the Great Jin Kingdom investigated this news and reported it to the commander of the Jin Kingdom step by step.

When Wanyan Zonghan, Wanyan Zongbi and others who lived in the Jin Kingdom Commander's tent heard the news.

I couldn't help but scratch my head.

Because when their large Jin army and horses attacked the Liao Kingdom, their military strength was truly invincible.
