"Everyone said, how should we deal with the matter of the request of the Song State to jointly destroy the Jin Dynasty?"

Wang Lun first said, "The Song people have no faith and have repeatedly broken promises, which is not a sincere alliance. Today, it was bullied by the Jin Kingdom, so they promised Yanyun and the land of the Jin Kingdom to form an alliance with our waters and Liangshan. If they overcome this difficulties, they must plan the land of Yanyun. Those who make this plan are actually wolf ambitions."

Xiao Jiasui said, "Jinzong is so in this way to his father, let alone the emperor? This kind of person who is unkind and righteous is not worth saving."

Yue Fei said, "If we want Yanyun and the Jin Kingdom, we can take it ourselves, why do we need the Song army to help?"

Han Shizhong said, "The Song army suspected that the military orders were different, and they did not reward if they had any contributions, they did not punish if they had any mistakes, and they had low combat power. If they had an alliance with them, they would be a big mistake."

Li Zhudao, "The land of the Jin Dynasty is barren, and Yanyun is in the four battles. If the emperor wants it, he will have to be the Central Plains or the water town in the south of the Yangtze River. If the Emperor Song is willing to cede, we will be able to send troops to the Liangshan Mountains."

Chen Zhaotong said, "Your Majesty will be in Zhenla County for a while. The Jin people have gained a lot this time and they have escaped unscathed. They have already gained the sweetness. They will definitely invade Song again. When Song is damaged by the Jin people, it will not be too late for you to consider whether to rescue him."

As the governance of Zhenla and other counties unfolded, Chen Kangbo was also transferred by Li Yan to serve as deputy to Wang Lun, ensuring that all the important Indochina Peninsula are owned by Liangshan, and ensuring that Wang Lun will not breed undeserved ambitions.

Chen Kangbo hesitated for a moment and said, "After all, the Song people are of the same species and the same origin as us..."

Before Chen Kangbo finished speaking, Wang Lun said, "No, how can we act loyally between countries? And the king is going to ask for a large army to rescue him at this time. The people of Song will not be grateful. They will also guard against the king like guarding against thieves. Why bother?"

Lou Minzhong also said, "Governor Wang said it well. If the Song people are not in desperate situations, they will not be grateful to the emperor for sending troops. They will only feel that the emperor takes advantage of the danger and takes advantage of the situation to rob."

Xi Changshi (Fujiwara Nagashi) said in Chinese that was not very fluent, "Although the territory of the Song Kingdom is good, the land of Central and Southern China is not bad. The key is that the situation between Central and Southern China has been opened. I think it is better to focus on Central and Southern China and Southern China to fully incorporate Central and Southern China into our landmark of Liangshan. It is not too late to map the Central Plains."

Li Dashi (Yelu Dashi) said, "The Seeds, Kushans, Huns, Khadas, Gugara and other ethnic groups, as well as the Sabre and Greeks, moved to the West, destroyed the Gupta dynasty built by the Indians, and then established more than a dozen small countries such as Zhaloqi of Vattabi, Lahitrakuta of Kalyani, and Zhaloqi of these dozens of small countries. The military capabilities are constantly fighting and low. You can completely send troops to attack the Western countries after occupying the Indochina Peninsula, and then head north..."

Li Yan was very clear about Yelu Dashi's purpose.

The reason why Yelu Dashi persuaded Li Yan to capture India was because he wanted to fight back to their Liao Kingdom's hometown from India.

Although this idea is a bit fantastic, it is not absolutely impossible to achieve.

Just as Yelu Dashi said, India is now divided into more than a dozen small countries. If the Liangshan army gives up the attack on the Central Plains and transfers all the troops here, it is likely to pacify the Indochina Peninsula and India in a short period of time.

After this, Yelu Dashi would definitely incite Li Yan to attack Gassini, then attack the Dongkarakhanate, and then Yelu Dashi's purpose was achieved, and the power of the water-pooling Liangshan could basically be in line with the remnants of the Liao Kingdom.

To be honest, Yelu Dashi's idea is actually quite tempting and has a certain possibility of success.

There is almost no opponent in the Indochina Peninsula. If more than 300,000 troops from Liaodong are transferred, the entire Indochina Peninsula should be able to capture the entire Indochina Peninsula in a year and a half, and then the Liangshan army can advance on both water and land toward India.

The military level of those small countries in India is not as good as that in the Indochina Peninsula. If there were no Brahmin bonds in the Khmer, it would have probably pacified the Indochina Peninsula and India long ago.

Therefore, if the Liangshan army, which easily defeated the Khmer country, was sent to India, there would be a great chance of unifying India.

Neither Ghassin nor the Eastern Karakhra Khanate are powerful countries.

In the last life, the Western Liao of Yelu Dashi annexed the Eastern Karakhanate, and even the Western Karakhanate, and defeated the Gassini Dynasty several times.

Once this place is opened, the water-pooling Liangshan will border the remaining forces of the Liao Kingdom, and then you can fight back upside down, then destroy the Western Xia and return to the Central Plains.

but

After careful consideration, Li Yan gave up Yelu Dashi's idea.

Yes, Yelu Dashi's idea is interesting.

But there are too many luck here.

First of all, there should be no problem with the strength of the remaining countries. The waters of Liangshan have already figured out that as long as the troops are sufficient, they should be able to conquer them.

The main problem lies in India.

It’s not that the dozen small countries in India are difficult to fight, but that India’s geographical location is too annoying.

The Himalayas are in the north of India, the West Gate to the left on the south, and the East Gate to the right. These mountains almost encircle India.

That's fine, the key is that there is a Wendy Mountain Range that runs east-west and a Nalmada River that runs east-west in the middle of India. This mountain and river divides India into two.

In addition, the coastline on the left of South India is too short to be suitable for living at all. Only the middle and right are suitable for development. These two parts are also divided into two by the Eastern Ghats and cannot form a unified state.

In short, until later generations, India was divided into three major political modules, North India, South Central India, and Southeast India because of its special terrain. It was unable to form a complete and unified centralized India several times in history. Like the Mauryan Dynasty and the Gupta Dynasty, they actually only nominally unified India and did not actually unify India.

India has been invaded in history, such as the Persians, the Huns, the Mongols, and the British, but they cannot completely occupy the place.

Therefore, India can only be a colonial place, and it is impossible to fully incorporate it into its territory.

India's special geographical environment is only one of the reasons why Li Yan disagrees with Yelu Dashi's idea.

After all, as long as you subdue more than a dozen small countries in India, you don’t even have to subdue them all, you can use the means to attack the Gassini Dynasty and the Eastern Karakhra Khanate.

The real reason why Li Yan disagreed with Yelu Dashi's idea was that the other two were that, if he did this, the front line was too long, which was often an important national pretext for defeat. Throughout history, there have been too many wars that were defeated by the enemy because the front line was too long. Moreover, although the Liangshan Army could fight, it was also dependent on logistics. Therefore, once he did this, the Liangshan Army would likely face an unbearable defeat. The other is that Li Yan would never give up on the Central Plains and come here to expand territory, especially if he had the opportunity to enter the Central Plains.

Therefore, after listening to Yelu Dashi's long strategic concept, Li Yan said, "You have to eat one bite at a time, and the road has to be taken step by step. Now the Indochina Peninsula has not yet completely belonged to our waters, Liangshan. How can we plot against the countries in the West? My dear thought too far." Then he signaled Yelu Dashi to retreat for the time being and make a speech by others.

Seeing this, a trace of unwillingness flashed in Yelu Dashi's eyes, and then he became firm again, and then he honestly retreated...
