Zong Ze was stunned: "Thank me for what?"
Han Shizhong said, "Others may not know, but how could I, Han Shizhong, not know? The commander deliberately asked me to compete with General Qin in the military training ground, so that I could establish my authority in the army. The commander has done his best, and I have no way to repay him."
Zong Ze laughed heartily. "You saw through it all. You're right. You're new to the army, so naturally the generals won't obey you. General Qin is a great general in our army. If you can defeat him, the other generals will naturally submit."
Han Shizhong smiled and said, "That's why I want to thank you, Marshal."
Zong Ze pondered and said, "Well, commanding a battle in the face of an enemy is not just about bravery alone. No matter how high your martial arts skills are, you can't defeat the enemy's army. Fighting a battle still depends on command ability."

Han Shizhong added, "The Jin are tyrannical, and the people in their areas often revolt. Some become bandits, while others rise up in rebellion. We can unite these local armed forces and jointly raise the banner of resistance against the Jin."
"Hahaha..." Zong Ze was overjoyed: "Your Majesty really didn't make a mistake."

In the Linhuang area, Hebule's army continued to march eastward. Hebule's goal was also to go to the capital.
Both Zhao Huan and Hebula understood that whoever occupied Shangjing first would have the initiative after destroying the Jin Dynasty.
Between countries, there are no eternal enemies or eternal friends, only eternal interests.
Zhao Huan and Hebula were very clear about this. Once the Jin Dynasty was destroyed, the biggest rivals would be between Mongolia and the Song Dynasty.
Especially the Mongols. After Kublai Khan conquered the Tatars, all the Mongolian tribes came to him. The Mongols became extremely powerful, and the most fatal thing was that the fighting power of the Mongols could be described as terrifying.
