While guarding against Genghis Khan, begin to control the entire Hebei region.
Indeed, he has already discerned Genghis Khan's intentions.
With Gu Yan's capabilities.
How could he not see through Genghis Khan's myriad actions and plans?
Yet he has no other choice.
If it were possible, Gu Yan would gladly resolve the troubles Genghis Khan causes from the rear, but alas, Genghis Khan now wholly abandons direct confrontation and continuously entangles him.
What else can he do?
Song Army's encampment.
"Hebei, the heart of Kyushu, is also the critical passage for our army to advance south to clear the court and rectify the structure."
"This place must not fall into chaos, nor can it fall into others' hands."
"Most of the court's troops in Hebei have been diverted south to suppress unrest or defend the Yellow River, leaving only the elderly and weak behind."
"Genghis Khan's remnant forces are lurking outside, ready to strike."
"We must act quickly!"
