After all, the two of them fought together and agreed with each other. In Li Xingzhou's view, although Yang Hongzhao is sleek, he has the style of a general and is steady and cautious in using his troops. He is not as flexible and changeable as Zhong Daoyu, but he is a good player in fighting steadily and head-on battles.

"Of course, General Yang's military service is not my turn. I am just a little worried. Judging from the news given by the merchants of my royal palace, the Jin Kingdom is now buying a large amount of grain from the Bohai Sea, and buying from Goryeo, Xixia and other places. The price has increased by three or four times.

This shows that the Jin Kingdom has reached the end of its strength after more than a year of continuous wars.

They can use the gold and silver that continues to be made by the Liao Kingdom, but the food, cattle and sheep will not grow out of thin air. Without food, they can't help them even if they want to use troops." Li Xingzhou said.

"I think I'm afraid that after conquering Xijing, the Jin Dynasty will suspend large-scale military use and stay in the north of Nanjing to rest and breathe."

When Yang Hongzhao heard this, he frowned: "What does the prince mean?"

"We must seize Nanjing before the Jin Dynasty stops its troops, otherwise after the Jin Dynasty stops its march, the Liao Dynasty will be able to do its best to deal with our attack."

Yang Hongzhao thought for a while and nodded slowly: "Thank you for the reminder of the prince."

Then he said: "Your Majesty knows that the king of the Southern Court of Liao, Yelu Dashi, and the new emperor of Liao, Yelu Dun, sent an envoy to send a document saying that as long as Jing Kingdom helps them to repel the Jin people, the Liao Kingdom will surrender to Jing Kingdom for generations and pay annual tribute to Jing Kingdom."

"There is still this?" Li Xingzhou was surprised. He had been wandering around the world these days when he went to court. Because the new army did not go to war, he had nothing to do. He just had to worry about the duties of the transfer envoy in the north of Beijing, so he didn't care much about major issues.

"It's true. The old minister never thought that the Liao Kingdom would surrender one day. They didn't surrender even when General Tomb fought Nanjing City." Yang Hongzhao sighed.

Li Xingzhou shook his head: "What's the use of surrendering now? If they had come early and had surrendered before the Jin people captured Shangjing, the emperor might have sent troops. Now that the Liao Kingdom has reached this point, it is just a piece of fat on the table, and anyone wants to take a bite."

Then, he frowned again and said, "But... this Yelu Dashi must be careful, this person is not a good person."
