If pain is a kind of practice, then in the past ten years, Yelu Hongji has been living the life of an ascetic monk... After losing Youzhou, he tried to fight back immediately, and later tried to restore the wildness of the Khitans. In order to preserve his vassal state, Goryeo, he fought with the Bohai supported by the Song Dynasty for several years.

It was during the battles in recent years that Yelu Hongji honed the elite in his hands, trained horses, and no longer feared artillery... If he had not been prepared for these things, perhaps he would have been defeated just as soon as he started the battle.

The cannons and muskets of the Song Dynasty were too sharp, completely beyond the Khitans' estimates.

"You can't fight any more, otherwise the Khitan will be over!"

Yelu Hongji became more and more determined in his judgment, and he must give up Yunzhou and escape from the grassland... Thanks to Wang Ning'an, Yelu Hongji also studied the world. He found that in the distant West, even crossing the Western Regions, there was still vast land. The most important thing was that there were no strong opponents there at all.

The Huns and later Turks all retreated and ravaged the West. The Khitans were also fine. They wanted to retreat westward, explore unknown areas, and create a larger empire... If there was a chance, he would still compete with the Song Dynasty, but Yelu Hongji had no idea at this moment.

But it is not that easy to leave. With the restraint of the Khitan tribes, those old and stubborn people are unwilling to give up the pastures handed down by their ancestors. Yelu Hongji knows the thoughts of these people best.

They would rather give surrender to the Song Dynasty than accompany the emperor to flee the West.

For many tribes, there is almost no difference between following the Song Dynasty and following the Khitan. Maybe living a better life with the Song Dynasty!

Yelu Hongji will not be polite about a group of people who are half-hearted.

In addition, the Song Dynasty was eyeing him. If he ran in front and the Song army chased him behind, he would have no chance to breathe. Not to mention opening up the world, he would just die.

Thinking of this, I can’t understand the battle in front of me.

Yelu Hongji had two purposes. One was to defeat the Song Dynasty, regardless of sacrifice, shock Wang Ning'an, and give him time to withdraw... As for the second purpose, it was to consume the forces opposed to him, make these people insignificant and unable to interfere with his decision-making.

Yelu Hongji mobilized 10,000 elite soldiers to attack the Song army's food route. At the same time, he issued an order to concentrate 50,000 troops. After cutting off the food route, he immediately attacked head-on. He arranged another 20,000 Tielin Army to detour from the flanks and strive to break through the Song army's defense line in one battle...

I have to say that whether it is in terms of operation planning or battlefield arrangement, Yelu Hongji is not inferior to Wang Ning'an at all. Unfortunately, the cards in his hand are too bad, far from being as good as Wang Ning'an!

"Master, what trump card do you have?" Zhao Shu couldn't help but say curiously: "Can this logistics team be as brave and good at fighting like Xiaotao and the others? It shouldn't be that the court's military expenditure only purchased 200 tractors? Is there any extra fund?"

Wang Ning'an smiled faintly, "Your Majesty, the court has no money, but some people have money!"

Looking at the master's unfathomable smile, Zhao Shu was suddenly shocked, "Master, aren't you paying out of your own pocket?"

Wang Ning'an quickly waved his hand and said righteously: "Your Majesty, you can't talk nonsense about this matter. I definitely have no small treasury, and it's a light to see!"

Zhao Shu smiled and didn't believe it!

However, Zhao Shu also followed the master's words and said to himself: "No disciple, either. I handed over all the expenses in the palace to Qing'er, she can manage it very well."

Hello, little bastard, are you here to show your love?

Wang Ning'an has nothing to say. Who told you to marry three wives? No one's apprentice is dedicated!

He simply stopped him, "It was Xiao Guanyin's money."

"Ah? Is it the third master's wife? How much does she pay?" Zhao Shu said again: "It's not right. Even if she pays for it, there is only one factory that can produce the tractor. Sales to the outside must be approved by the court. Why didn't I see the letter?"

Wang Ning'an couldn't help but listen, "Your Majesty, you won't take the blame. You have clearly approved 500 tractors for Di Shuai!"

"Ship Di? So, did the third master intercept these tractors?"

"It's not considered interception. There is no suitable driver in Bohai Country, and Di Shuai is in a tight position, so he asked me to help, so I handed over this matter to Xiao Guanyin. When preparing for the war some time ago, she found me and said that she had gathered a group of drivers and could take action... It's just that Bohai Country will only be able to use it in spring, and there are a few months to serve the court."

Zhao Shu understood immediately!

He was so happy that he slapped his face.

The third master's wife is not an ordinary woman. Before she married her master, Gou Yaer became a teacher and Zhao Shu also learned a lot of skills. What kind of business methods are there, poetry, songs, and the third master's wife is all top-notch.

Moreover, Zhao Shu knew very well that Xiao Guanyin and his family had died at the hands of Yelu Hongji. The third wife was obsessed with it and wanted to take revenge. How could she be absent this time to send troops?

"Master, the people on my third master's wife are not weak, right?"

Wang Ning'an frowned and said helplessly: "Your Majesty, do you think the one you spend 10 million yuan to get is bad?"

Zhao Shu was shocked again!

Good good!

Even the little golden man wouldn't spend so much money!

Is the third master's wife crazy?

Since Xiao Guanyin decided to train Wanyan Yingge, she felt that there must be a force that restrains him, so that Wanyan's troops could not exceed control.

So in recent years, she has concentrated all the wealth she had at the beginning. She first ran a school, recruited teenagers over 13 years old, conducted training, and fully military training, teaching them civil and military skills. Later, she even learned guns and gunpowder, even driving repairs, and fiddling with steam engines.

The total number of this team is only 500, but it can be consumed by 10,000 imperial guards, and everything is the best.

Of course, Xiao Guanyin did not raise private soldiers. She hung her troops under the Bohai Kingdom. Even if she helped the vassals to train mercenaries, she not only had a record in the Ministry of War, but also received support.

After all, the Song Dynasty wanted to explore outside, and could not rely solely on the power of the court, but also mobilize civil forces. The country could still pardon pirates. The Song Dynasty's methods were still far apart!

"Your Majesty, I will only tell you one thing. These people are equipped with rifled guns and field guns!"

"ah!"

Zhao Shu was really scared. After a while, he stretched out his thumb, "Oh my God, the third master's wife is such a big deal!"
