821. Sudden realization

The little รท said โ—Ž Net], the โ™‚ little รท said โ—Ž Net],

On this day, after Yue Peng followed Zhao Dongting to the Changsha Palace, he had a secret conversation with Zhao Dongting for a long time.

Although the movement in Shu was only a little rumor, it was enough to make Zhao Dongting become a little nervous.

With the strength of Shuzhong and Dali, it should not be enough to destroy the Great Song Dynasty. But on the side, there is still a Yuan Dynasty eyeing the tiger.

Now that the news of Zhao Xian's assassination has spread, there are signs of resurgence in the Great Song Dynasty. As long as Shu sends troops, it will really be internal and external troubles.

He had to be well prepared.

By the time Yue Peng left the palace, it was already late at night.

He only spent one night in Chen Jianghan's mansion, and in the early morning of the next day, he left Changsha with others and headed for Chongqing.

And on this day, Wang Wenfu, Hong Wutian and others, who went to Xinyang City to investigate Zhao Xian's assassination, finally rushed back.

The first thing they did after returning to Changsha was to go to the palace to ask to see Zhao Dongting.

Zhao Dongting met them in the imperial study.

When I saw them, several people were still in the dust.

Zhao Dongting looked at Wang Wenfu's old age, and he couldn't help but feel a little guilty, and said, "It's hard work, Lord Wang." โ€

The look of guilt on Wang Wenfu's face was even worse, "Your Majesty, old minister...... The person who assassinated Emperor Gong was not found. โ€

"Alas......"

Zhao Dongting didn't wait for Wang Wenfu to speak again, he sighed, "Actually, I already roughly know who did it." โ€

Regarding Zhao Xian's assassination, he asked those imperial relatives who followed Xie Daoqing back to the dynasty.

Two gray-robed men.

One with mottled temples, one young man.

The swordsmanship of the man with mottled temples was superb, and the young man did not do it.

With such a combination, he will naturally associate it with Taki's desire and Wu Amiao.

It's just that what he doesn't understand is whether this is what Taki's desire to do himself, or whether he was ordered by the Broken Military Academy Palace.

If it is Taki's desire, it can be explained that he just wants to kill the Great Song royal family to avenge it. But in this case, there is no reason for him to leave the lives of Xie Daoqing and the others.

It's more likely to be the latter.

But I can't understand it, why did the Broken Military Academy Palace kill Zhao Xian?

Let Zhao Xian return to the palace and compete with himself for the throne, wouldn't it have a greater impact on the Great Song Dynasty?

And why did you leave the lives of Xie Daoqing and others?

Wang Wenfu saw that Zhao Dongting fell silent, and continued: "After Lao Chen, Hong and Xu arrived in Xinyang City, they immediately rushed to the town where Emperor Gong was assassinated with Liu Zaiyuan, the commander of the Tianli Army. It's a pity that it's been too long, and there are no traces left in the town. Lao Chen only learned that it was two gray-robed men who assassinated, and there were several swordsmen behind him, who killed those Yuan soldiers. โ€

"Yes!"

Zhao Dongting suddenly looked up.

A few swordsmen slay those Yuan soldiers!

This made him think that it was the hand of the Broken Military Academy.

And several swordsmen were able to kill those Yuan soldiers, but they did not kill Xie Daoqing and others. This is clearly deliberate.

In a trance, he suddenly understood Duan Qilin's intentions or the intention of breaking the Military Academy.

Killing Zhao Xian and leaving Xie Daoqing and others is to completely force Xie Daoqing and others to the opposite side. It also made Xie Daoqing and others suspect that it was their own hands.

And their real intentions are ......

Zhao Dongting only realized at this moment that he had missed someone. And this person is Zhao Yu who fled to Shuzhong.

There is a change in Shu......

Duan Qilin has already proclaimed himself emperor in Dali, so it is impossible to command the White Horse Army in Shuzhong openly. Because that would reveal the disguise of the White Horse Army, which was still nominally the Great Song Army.

With the current national conditions of the Great Song Dynasty, if the White Horse Army in Shuzhong surrenders, the public opinion of the people alone will give Duan Qilin an incomparable headache.

And if Zhao Yu is in charge of Shuzhong, it will be completely different.

He is the Prince of the Great Song Dynasty.

Moreover, Zhao Dongting forced him to flee to Shuzhong before, and now Zhao Xian has been assassinated. This gave Zhao Yu enough reason to be the king in Shu.

All you need to do is splash the dirty water that stabbed Zhao Xian on Zhao Dongting.

Even, Zhao Yu can also say that when the Song army attacked Yongzhou, it was Zhao Dongting who deliberately persecuted him.

Killing two brothers at the same time makes people even more suspicious of Zhao Dongting's temperament.

Zhao Hao is king under such public opinion, I am afraid that he will be supported by many people. When the time comes, Shuzhong will be able to break away from the Great Song Dynasty logically.

To be precise, it is the Great Song Dynasty helmed by Zhao Dongting.

Zhao Dongting, who suddenly realized, gradually became solemn in the puzzled eyes of Wang Wenfu and others.

Things may be more serious than you think.

"The Emperor's ......"

Wang Wenfu shouted softly.

Zhao Dongting came back to his senses at this time, but said: "Don't investigate the assassination of Emperor Gong." Lord Wang, Senior Hong, Senior Xu, go down and rest first! โ€

Then he looked at Zhu Hecong and said, "Hecong, you immediately go and announce Lord Lu, Lord Chen, and Chen Shangshu of the Ministry of State Affairs, as well as Lord Su, the deputy military commander of the Ministry of War, Lord Zhang, the secretary of the Ministry of Social Security, Lord Li, the secretary of the Ministry of Military Industry, and Lord Xu, the secretary of the Ministry of Military Science." โ€

Zhu Hecong agreed again and again and walked towards the outside of the house.

Wang Wenfu looked at Zhao Dongting like this, and he was puzzled, "Your Majesty, what happened to you?" โ€

Zhao Dongting said solemnly: "A big war may arise. โ€

As if he had thought of something, he said, "Lord Wang, after you leave, go and meet with Inspector Zhang." Recently, there may be turmoil in the DPRK and China, and I have already asked the Military Intelligence Department to secretly investigate, if anyone in the DPRK wants to cause chaos, as long as the signs are revealed, I can cut you down the Ministry of Law and the Ministry of Supervision first. At this moment, there must be no chaos within the imperial court. โ€

Wang Wenfu was moved, and didn't ask any more, "The old minister takes the order." โ€

Then he immediately walked with Hong Wutian and Mrs. Xu to the outside of the imperial study.

There are some things that don't need to be asked by Zhao Dongting. Ask Zhang Shijie and others, and you can also get the answer.

"Haiwang, bring pen and ink and maps."

As soon as they left, Zhao Dongting asked Zhu Haiwang to bring the pen and ink map.

The map is the map of the Song, Li, Western Xia, Yuan and several surrounding countries. Of course, it was only a very sketchy map, and it was impossible to draw a very detailed map in this era.

Zhao Dongting writes and draws on the map.

He had a lot of thoughts going through his head.

If Zhao Yu is the king, and then there are some changes in Shu that Yue Peng said, it can be expected that Zhao Yu is very likely to attack the Song Dynasty after he becomes the king.

And Zhao Yu had just arrived in Shuzhong, and with his means, it was unlikely that he would seize Duan Qilin's rights. In other words, the person who really wants to attack Song is actually Duan Qilin.

In this way, if there is a large army in Shuzhong, Dali will definitely not wait and see. War will break out in the west of the Great Song Dynasty.

As for the Yuan Dynasty......

There should be no reason why the Broken Military Academy Palace would know the path of Xie Daoqing, Zhao Xian and others back to the Song Dynasty so accurately.

But Zhao Xian died in the hands of Taki's desire nine times out of ten.

This means that it is possible that Duan Qilin and Kublai Khan are acting together. And this drama is to build momentum for the attack on the Song Dynasty.

In this way, the Yuan Dynasty may also tear up the agreement and attack the Song Dynasty.

The Great Song Dynasty is truly an enemy on all sides.

Even though there are more than 200,000 forbidden troops in the four major military regions, Zhao Dongting still feels struggling. If it is really as he guessed, the four major military regions may not be able to stop the Yuan and Li coalition forces.

What's more, the current national strength of the Great Song Dynasty is simply unable to support the simultaneous war with Dali, Shuzhong, and the Yuan Dynasty.

It's too much pressure.

It is difficult to transport grain and grass alone.

Moreover, the border of the Great Song Dynasty is so long, it is very likely that the Yuan and Li armies will take advantage of the situation from somewhere. It will be even more chaotic then.

Therefore, Zhao Dongting must defeat one of them first. Or Yuan, or Dali, or Shuzhong.

The Yuan Dynasty is the most powerful, and if you want to defeat it, it is not so easy, so you can only choose between Dali or Shuzhong.

So, is it better to concentrate on dealing with Shuzhong first, or is it better to deal with Dali first?

Zhao Dongting wrote and drew on the map for a long time.

In the end, four words were written on the map, "Resist the Yuan and destroy Shu!" โ€

To resist the Yuan Dynasty is to take a defensive position against the Yuan Dynasty first.

Destroy Shu, since it is the first to destroy Shu.

Because, the territory in Shu is the smallest. strength, and the weakest.

Moreover, in the north of Shuzhong, there are also Western Xia who can send troops to help at any time. Although, Li Xiushu's out-of-tune woman actually said that she would resign herself to fate.

As long as Shu is destroyed, the Zhenxi Military Region and the Zhennan Military Region of the Great Song Dynasty can work together to resist Dali. You can even still let Western Xia help.

When the time comes, maybe they will be able to destroy Dali.

On the northern side, more than 100,000 forbidden troops of the Zhenbei Military Region and the Fujian Military Region should be able to block the Yuan army.

Zhao Dongting looked at the four words on the paper and whispered to himself, "That's it...... strategy."

He took a deep breath of the air, and it seemed that there was some smell of gunsmoke!
