"Tighten trade with the Song Dynasty across the board."
"yes!"
A few days later, a letter of accusation was sent to the capital.
It was written by someone commissioned by Zhao Huan.
We agreed on trade between our two countries, so why have you not only allowed Wanyan Hong to violate regulations, but now you've also drastically reduced our interactions with me?
Yan Sheng almost vomited blood after reading this letter of accusation.
The three major crimes were: first, violating the agreement between the two countries and arbitrarily tightening trade; second, Wanyan Hong disobeying the laws of the Song Dynasty; and third, the Jin state stealing the Huaxing spinning wheel of the Song Dynasty.
Given that the Jin Dynasty had broken its promises, the Song Dynasty also began to tighten its trade relations with the Jin Dynasty across the board.
At the end of June, the State of Song issued a proclamation against the State of Jin, listing the three major crimes of the State of Jin and announcing them to the world.

Goryeo's strategic importance is self-evident.
Once the Song Dynasty controls Goryeo, it can demand that Goryeo send troops to attack the Jin Dynasty from the northeast, thus extending the battle lines and putting the Jin Dynasty in a crisis of being surrounded on all sides.
Currently, the ferry crossings in Dengzhou and Mizhou are still under expansion.
At the end of June, the emperor inspected the Central Army's firearms battalion and personally received Chen Zhaojun.
Currently, 10,000 of the latest version of muskets have been deployed to the firearms battalion and are being used for training.
Firearms were a major weapon for the emperor in dealing with the Jin dynasty.
This war is not far off.
