At that time, Xu Jinguo had gained a foothold in the Central Plains, and its national strength was at its peak. Although it was defeated by the Song Dynasty several times in the defensive war, it was difficult to recover the Central Plains. Even if it was recovered for a period of time, it was because the resources of the Southern Song Dynasty under the rule of Song Gaozong were unstable, the production did not resume, the refugees were not resettled, and the cavalry did not. The administrative efficiency of the whole government group is low.
With the resource integration ability of the Southern Song Dynasty, there were less than 200,000 combat troops, and most of them were defensive infantry. In addition to Yue Fei's attack, other generals, Zhang Jun, Han Shizhong, Wu Brothers and Liu Qi, all defeated the 8 Jin Army on the premise of defending with the advantage of terrain or water army and fighting at home. For example, recovering in the attack may not defeat the 8 Jin Army, and it is impossible to annihilate the 8 Jin Army on the plain only by thousands of cavalry and infantry of Yue Fei!
With Xu Jinguo's strength, it was the best stage of its rise, and its war potential was very strong. Even later, decadent Xu Jinguo still won many victories in the Mongolian-Jin War, such as the Battle of Dachangyuan, the Battle of Guigu, the Battle of Weizhou and the Battle of Tongguan! The natural barrier of the Yellow River and the battle of Tongguan can defeat Mongolia many times. If the emperor of Xu Jin had followed Song Qinzong's example, Mongolia's strong power might not have defeated the declining Xu Jin.
Even after Emperor Gaozong became the father of the emperor in the later period, the economy recovered and the national treasury was very rich and powerful. With the wisdom of King Xiaozong, a few months later, the Northern Expedition failed, and Xiaozong was hit hard, and there was no ambition to recover lost ground! Don't think that there is no famous soldier in Xiaozong dynasty, but in the final analysis, it is the advantage of national strength and army. Without Huo Qubing and Wei Qing, the national strength is there, and the Huns are still hanging in Chen Shang. Xiaozong Dynasty is said to have the best economic strength in the Southern Song Dynasty, but even in the middle and late Southern Song Dynasty, it was decadent and dark! As usual, there are many famous people here, such as Meng Gong, Cao Youwen, wujun, Wang Jian, Wen Yang, Lv Wende, Du Gao and so on. It can be seen that the failure of Xiaozong's Northern Expedition must be the lack of famous soldiers. Wang Jian can kill Mongo Khan who led 654.38+ 10,000 troops in Fishing City with thousands of soldiers, but he certainly can't lead Mobei to capture Mongo alive. Similarly, Zhang Jun, Han Shizhong, Wu Brothers and Liu Qi could defend their land and defeat the invading nomads, but it was difficult to encircle the nomads with Yue Fei during the Northern Expedition.
To sum up, the emperor's proposal for peace is correct. The only one who has the conditions to defeat the nomads from here is Song Qinzong, because as long as he holds Kaifeng, the loyalist army will come. As the rogue nomads from here, even if they can't be defeated, they will be cut off and consumed to death!
What are the advantages and disadvantages of peace talks and wars? The peace talks lost face, but the people all over the world were able to recuperate. In addition, Emperor Gaozong arranged the refugees who fled to the south well. In addition, he also paid due attention to business, overseas trade and cultural education, so that the economy and culture reached the peak again. Although Emperor Gaozong only saved half the country, he is still worth rebuilding a prosperous monarch! In ancient times, the only person who achieved this achievement this year was Gao Zong. If there is a war, the best estimate is: 5 armies go hand in hand, Yue Fei goes out of Beijing and Hubei to recover Kaifeng in the Central Plains, Wu brothers go out of Qinchuan and enter the customs along Weishui, Liu Qi goes out of Shunchang and Kaifeng, Zhang Jun goes out of Huaixi to Tianfu (Shangqiu), and Han Shizhong goes out of Huaidong to rule Shandong. If the financial logistics of the Southern Song Dynasty can survive and the people of the Central Plains are lucky enough to recover the Central Plains, then the economy of the Central Plains can be restored with the financial resources of Jiangnan. It takes several generations of British leaders and ministers to recover the dark clouds and resist the fighting on the Mongolian plain behind them. Unfortunately, all other roads in Xu can be held by only a small number of troops! Concentrate the national superior cavalry forces to encircle the main force of Yuefei's Northern Expedition, then break them one by one, and then go down to the south of the Yangtze River for a long time. Defend the country! In the wild, on the plains where the economy has been seriously damaged, it is difficult for infantry to fight cavalry in the northern expedition!
The return of Qin Zong must not affect the throne of Tian Wen. First of all, the defeated army will be brave. Secondly, all the members of Qinzong Hui Zong's team have basically been taken away from the throne by the nomads from the army. Once again, all ministers are cronies personally promoted by Zhao Gou, and it is impossible to defeat Qinzong as king again! Finally, if Tian Wen regains his old capital and welcomes Qin Zong back, his prestige in rebuilding the country is second only to Mao, but not as good as Qin Zong who lost his country and lost land!
