Relatively speaking, although the eldest prince Wanyan Oben had prestige and the largest military force, he knew nothing about general affairs and had no experience in leading troops on long-distance marches independently.

After all, the king is only an eighteen-year-old boy. It cannot be said that everyone looks down on him as a child. However, in the face of such a major event as the life and death of the country and nation, his age is really embarrassing. There is no reason to give him all the power that was not originally given to him at this sensitive time.

As for people like Hesheli Taiyu, Wanyan Yinshuke, and Wanyan Talan, there is no need to mention them.

"What are you thinking about?" Xi Yin turned around and noticed that the other party had not taken a bath at all, and was still wearing the dirty and smelly leather armor. "Why did you come to me?"

"I am worried about the future of my country and my tribe, and I am uneasy, so I came to ask you for help." Hesheli Liangbi hesitated for a moment, but finally chose to be honest to a certain extent. "Logically speaking, I have escaped now... at least I have escaped the pursuit of the magnificent army, but when I think about my father's estrangement from His Royal Highness the King of Liao, and the King of Wei never coming back, when we arrive at Huanglongfu, the hatred, opposition, and factions that were suppressed in Yanjing will soon reappear. Moreover, both sides have their own followers, and the Song army is pressing on, I am afraid it will be another bloody storm..."

"Then what?"

Wanyan Xiyin remained calm.

"Then... Teacher..." Liang Bi answered seriously. "When we get to Huanglong Mansion, will you be able to continue to stabilize the situation? Or do you have other ways to deal with it? In fact, everyone obeys you, and Emperor Zhao has also nominated you as the prime minister... If you are willing to take charge of the situation, I am willing to do my best."

Xi Yin was silent for a moment, still calm: "I can stabilize the situation now, relying on the shock of King Wei's death to the generals and the desire to survive of the fleeing people... When we reach Huanglongfu... Even before we reach Huanglongfu, I don't think I can control anyone... You must know that the Great Jin Kingdom is like this. After going around, we still have to look at the wealth of each tribe. How can I, a distant branch of the Wanyan clan, control anyone? Even if I can control them for a while, I can't control them forever."

"I thought it was possible." Liangbi's reaction was a little strange when he heard this, he felt relieved but also a little sad.

"It could have been possible." Xi Yin shook his head. "We could have won over the people through education and institutions, just like when the Zhao Song emperor fled south, he could have won over the people as long as he wanted... But the Song people didn't give us the time and opportunity."

Hesheli Liangbi deeply agreed with this.

"Liang Bi." Xi Yin took another look at the other person's dirty leather armor and suddenly spoke.

"The student is here." Hesheli Liangbi quickly bowed.

"If there is a chance, we should still lead the nation to learn Chinese, write Chinese characters, and read Chinese books... Those things are really good, much better than what we have." Xi Yin explained seriously.

"This is my long-cherished wish." Liang Bi said without hesitation. "And not only me, but my generation, from the king to my princes and nephews, all understand this truth."

Xi Yin nodded and said no more.

After waiting for a while, a servant came to report that the king and the queen had finished bathing and invited Prime Minister Xi Yin to meet them in front of the emperor. The two of them then said goodbye.

Today's matter seems to have come to an end.

However, within just half an hour, the camp suddenly became chaotic.

The cause of the incident was very simple... The soldiers took a bath first, and soon after they finished, in the evening, when it was getting dark, the female relatives who were accompanying them could no longer bear it, so they took advantage of the reeds and curtains to try to take a bath in the water.

As the saying goes, when one is well fed and warm, one will think of sex. In the wilderness, after bathing, the soldiers had nothing to do and began to set their sights on the women, which soon led to sporadic rape incidents.

In response to this, Xi Yin's attitude was very firm and decisive. He sent the Hezhameng'an troops to quickly suppress and execute them.

But soon, several pillars of the Great Jin Dynasty discovered with horror that the speed at which they handled such incidents could not keep up with the speed at which similar incidents occurred... Rape and looting began to appear in large numbers like green grass on a grassland after rain.

Soon afterwards, there were incidents of people gathering to resist Hezhameng'an's execution of military law, as well as organized attacks on women and baggage.

At this point, everyone understood what was happening.

The army's patience had reached its limit, and even though it suddenly relaxed, a mutiny was imminent.

Of course, there were countless veterans with experience in military affairs in the team, Yin Shuke, Talan, including Elubu, Jiaguwulibu and others immediately made a unanimous suggestion, asking the king to issue an edict to grant all the maids brought by the nobles, and release some of the wealth, especially hard currency such as gold, silver, cloth, fur and so on as rewards.

Without any extra thoughts, this suggestion was quickly passed and immediately implemented... Even a person as particular as Xi Yin wisely remained silent... Then, before it became completely dark, he finally suppressed the mutiny by both kindness and force.

Once again, the Jin Dynasty's top leaders did their best to maintain unity in times of crisis.

The Great Jin Dynasty seemed to still have enough centripetal force.

However, at three o'clock in the morning, just as the Jin Dynasty's fugitive nobles, each with their own thoughts, had barely put aside their own worries and gone to sleep, there was suddenly a flash of fire and the sound of horses' hooves on the north bank of the Huangshui River.

As soon as Wanyan Oben and his companions left the house, they discovered in near despair that most of the troops did not even understand the situation on the other side of the river, and simply chose to flee with the women and their belongings.

And soon, an even more desperate situation emerged.

As the rebel troops on the other side of the river approached, they could clearly hear those people shouting in Khitan, demanding to kill all the members of the Wanyan clan and avenge Emperor Tianzuo.

Some people even shouted that they were following Yelu Mawu's orders.
