Rebirth: Overthrow Song Dynasty

"First of all, we will send a large army south into Sichuan! Occupy the important passes of Sichuan, occupy the waterways of Sichuan! Sichuan itself is inland, and there are not many garrisons. If we go south in time, no one can stop us! Of course, we must be careful in the future Beware of King Kang's navy! Zhe Keqiu, general, why not go south and enter Sichuan, with you here, Sichuan is as stable as Mount Tai!" Li Gang looked at Zhe Keqiu, and said.

"How is this possible?" Zhe Keqiu was stunned there, and said, "Sichuan is already upstream, and it is a place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack! I don't need to guard Sichuan personally, only my son Zhe Yanzhi guards Sichuan That's it!"

"General Xiaozhe may not be able to stop King Kang! A few months ago, General Xiaozhe was ordered to resist the Jurchens, but he was vulnerable in front of the Jurchens! Now let him guard Sichuan, I am not at ease! If Sichuan is lost, we will only occupy What's the point of Hanzhong? At that time, we still have to bow our heads to King Kang!" Li Gang said.

"Hmph! Then what do you think we should do? Let me personally guard Sichuan, that is absolutely impossible! Although King Kang is a great threat, the Jurchens are even more threatening! I will stay by His Highness the Crown Prince's side and protect His Highness the Crown Prince! " Zhe Keqiu sneered.

He is absolutely unwilling to leave Zhao Chen's side! If he left Zhao Chen's side, how would he realize the grand plan of "holding the emperor to command the princes"!

"I have an idea! Brothers Wu Jie and Wu Lin came to Hanzhong from Sichuan to resist the Jin soldiers at Dasan Pass! The two of them were born in Sichuan, so they must be very familiar with Sichuan! The two of them can stop the Jin soldiers. There are still some! Let the two of them guard Sichuan and lose the general, what do you think?" Li Gang said.

"No!" Zhe Keqiu shook his head again.

"Why not?" Li Gang said.

"The two of them have too few troops! How can they guard Sichuan with only 5,000 people?" Zhe Keqiu asked.

"I don't think it's better to let the two of them guard the Yangtze River waterway! General Orihiko guards the pass in Chengdu and other places, how about this?" Li Gang said.

"Okay!" Zhe Keqiu finally nodded in agreement!

Li Gang also breathed a sigh of relief! Originally, he wanted the two brothers Wu Jie and Wu Lin to completely guard and control Sichuan! These two brothers and Zhe Keqiu are not the same way! The two of them have mastered Sichuan, and they can also support Zhao Chen in the future! But now Zhe Keqiu is obviously unwilling to agree, and now is not the time to fall out with Zhe Keqiu, and now they should unite to deal with Zhao Gou! Therefore, Li Gang used a compromise method and asked Wu Jie and Wu Lin to guard the Yangtze River waterway! After Wu Jie and Wu Lin arrived in Sichuan, he would naturally give the two of them some tricks and let them deal with Zhe Yanzhi! That Zhe Yanzhi is an incompetent person, and he will definitely be swallowed up by Wu Jie and Wu Lin!

This is a plan he has been thinking about for a long time, and he only said it now! I don't think there is anything wrong with it!

"In addition to sending troops to guard Sichuan, we also need to send ministers to serve as Sichuan envoys!" Li Gang said again.

The so-called "Xuanfu envoy" was the local governor of the Song Dynasty! It is almost equivalent to the position of the governor or governor of later generations! However, Xuan Fushi is not a permanent official position! Now Zhao Chen wants to completely control Sichuan. In addition to sending troops to guard Sichuan, it is also necessary to send ministers to serve as Xuan Fu to control the affairs of the province! Therefore, Li Gang made such a suggestion!

"I don't know who to send as the envoy?" Zhe Ke asked.

"Let Cao Rong, the magistrate of Hanzhong, go to Chengdu to serve as the Xuanfu envoy of Sichuan! Let Li Ruoshui and Master Li serve as the deputy envoy of Xuanfu of Sichuan! General Zhe, what do you think?" Li Gang said.

"Okay!" Zhe Keqiu nodded, with a smile on his face!

Cao Rong is his son's uncle-in-law and his relative! He felt that after Cao Rong and Orihiko arrived in Sichuan, they would definitely be able to help him control Sichuan! However, Li Gang also had a smile on his face at this moment. He sent Li Ruoshui, Wu Jie and Wu Lin to Sichuan. Cao Rong and Zhe Yanzhi control Sichuan and support Zhao Chen! Orihiko is incompetent, and as for that Cao Rong, in Li Gang's eyes, he is also mediocre! Li Gang believes that these two people are definitely not the opponents of Li Ruoshui, Wu Jie and Wu Lin!

"With Sichuan, Sichuan, and Hanzhong, we can at least stand side by side with King Kang! Sichuan and Hanzhong are places that are easy to defend and difficult to attack. Even if King Kang is stronger than us, it is impossible to capture us! This is a strategy. There are also offensive strategies!" Li Gang said.

"I don't know what the offensive strategy is?" Zhe Keqiu asked.

"The so-called offensive strategy, first of all, we want to occupy the entire Guanshan! Now the most important places in Guanshan, Chang'an and Tongguan are under the occupation of the Jurchens! The rest of the Fengxiang Mansion is now under the occupation of Wu Jie and Wu Lin brothers. Belongs to us! In addition, there are 100,000 troops from Qu Duan on Jingyuan Road in the northwest. We want Qu Duan to surrender to His Royal Highness! If Qu Duan surrenders to King Kang, then we will be in danger! After recruiting Qu Duan, we will Recover Chang'an and Tongguan again! Afterwards, we will develop slowly, and when necessary, our army will go down the Yangtze River and destroy King Kang in one fell swoop! After we destroy King Kang, we will go north to destroy gold!" Li Gang said.

Li Gang described a grand "blueprint" in a few words. Although what he said was a bit far away, this plan is quite good! Zhe Keqiu nodded secretly from the side, he thought to himself that this Li Gang is worthy of being a famous official in the world, it really is no small matter! It's just that Li Gang followed the prince and was loyal to the prince, and it would be very detrimental to him to coerce the emperor in the future to the princes! Thinking of this, a sneer appeared on his face. He definitely wanted to get rid of Li Gang. He couldn't let Li Gang stay by Zhao Chen's side all the time, and couldn't let Li Gang keep giving advice to Zhao Chen!

"It's easy to recruit Qu Duan! Qu Duan is in Jingyuan, northwest of the country, and there is no grain production there. Their grain needs to be transported from Hanzhong and Sichuan! We have the grain, so can he not rely on us?" Zhe Keqiu asked.

"What General Zhe said is true! I will leave this matter to General Zhe!" Li Gang said.

"Okay! Tomorrow, I will send people to go north to Jingyuan City, so that Qu Duan can come to visit His Highness the Crown Prince! However, we still need to give Qu Duan a good official position to win over him! Well, King Kang will ascend the throne, so His Highness the Crown Prince will naturally We can't lose to him, His Royal Highness must ascend the throne as soon as possible! Let's pick a good day and auspicious date, and then pick a good year name! Then, let His Royal Highness ascend the throne in Hanzhong City!" Zhe Keqiu said.

Li Gang and Zhe Keqiu kept discussing there, while Zhao Chen didn't have much chance to speak! On the one hand, Li Gang has already said everything he wanted to say! On the other hand, he is now playing an ignorant boy in front of Zhe Keqiu, so it is naturally inconvenient to express his opinions! He was just pondering, calculating, looking for possible opportunities in the future!

*** ***

This morning, they were all discussing in the Han Palace!

The prince Zhao Chen has been listening. In the afternoon, Cao Rong, Li Ruoshui, and Zhe Yanzhi met Zhao Chen. Zhao Chen named Cao Rong "Sichuan Xuanfu Envoy" and Li Ruoshui "Sichuan Xuanfu Envoy" in the name of the prince. Sichuan Xuanfu Deputy Envoy", Feng Zheyan was named "Sichuan Defense Envoy". Wu Jie and Wu Lin are not here, Zhao Chen still named Wu Jie as "Yangtze River Defense Envoy" and Wu Lin as "Yangtze River Defense Deputy Envoy", and ordered Wu Jie and Wu Lin to lead the army to go south to Sichuan immediately to defend the Yangtze River waterway. Later soldiers and horses entered Sichuan!

However, Li Gang, Zhe Keqiu and others are still discussing the issue of the date of enthronement and the title of the reign!

As the sun went down, the whole Han Palace turned red!

Standing in front of the gate of Qianqing Palace, Zhao Chen felt the tranquility that he had never felt these days!

"I'm going to be enthroned as emperor! Father and mother are still in the north, under the control of Jin soldiers! There are Jin soldiers in the north, and Kang Wang Zhao Gou in the east! I only have Hanzhong in my hands now. If the plan goes well , I can master Sichuan and Guanshan! Although there is still a lot to ask for, I can finally defeat him!"

"Historically, King Kang ascended the throne at about this time! But, now that my prince has survived, he must be very troubled! What is he doing now? Should he ascend the throne too?"

In fact, what he didn't know was that Kang Wang had already ascended the throne on this day!
