Qi Hongda finally stopped selling Guanzi and said: "My emperor does not want to see the lives of the two countries in misery, and he is sympathetic to the people in the army, and he sincerely negotiates peace." He asked him to come down and tell you that if you want Xiangyang Mansion, he will send Xiangyang Mansion to you. Shengshang he loves Princess Mingzhu the most, don't say Xiangyang, even the entire Jingnan Road is given to you as a dowry, it is not impossible. ”

This time it was Zhao Dongting's turn to be slightly stunned.

He really didn't think that Qi Hongda's purpose for coming to see him would be this.

What is this?

Kublai Khan's fighting spirit is gone?

It was hard for Zhao Dongting to imagine that this would be a decision made by Kublai Khan. Because in his impression, Kublai Khan was definitely an iron-clad man who would rather bend than bend.

This can be seen from the process of the development of the Yuan Dynasty.

No matter who touches the eyebrows of the Yuan Dynasty, it is a beating.

Sending the princess and the land like this is really the first time in the Yuan Dynasty.

In an instant, Zhao Dongting couldn't help but murmur in his heart. Toughness and weakness turned out to be corresponding, and the Yuan Dynasty was not as strong as the Song Dynasty, so it would have been soft.

And Kublai Khan returned the Jingnan Road to the Great Song Dynasty, which could indeed save the Great Song Dynasty a lot of trouble. In short, there is no need to let the forbidden army continue to fight with the Yuan army in northern Xinjiang.

Zhao Dongting thought that he had taken a big advantage, so he didn't continue to think too much.

Anyway, no matter what kind of idea Kublai Khan had, the Great Song Dynasty was able to get the entire Jingnan Road without much effort, and it was a big bargain.

Even, Zhao Dongting couldn't believe it, and couldn't help but say to Qi Hongda: "What Lord Qi said is true? Does the emperor of your dynasty really want Jingnan Road as a dowry? ”

"Yes."

Qi Hongda gave his hand, looking neither humble nor arrogant.

The smile on Zhao Dongting's face bloomed again, and he said, "Okay, then I will accept it with a smile." ”

Qi Hongda nodded lightly, "Then please Emperor Song, please give us some time, let us withdraw the officials in the territory of Jingnan Road." In the next farewell. ”

With that, he slowly withdrew from the imperial study.

As soon as I went out, I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, he finally distracted Emperor Song from his own retrospective and made him not aware of the strangeness. Otherwise, I am really afraid that I will be sneered at by Emperor Song.

It's really hard to do this kind of thing that begs people to accept benefits.

And Zhao Dongting stayed in the imperial study, muttering in his mouth, "The Yuan Dynasty can't hold on?" Want to recuperate? ”

Of course, it was difficult for him to figure out the key to the strangeness, and he might not be willing to use that brain to think about it.

After a little silence, Zhao Dongting instructed Gonggong Liu next to him: "Go to Xuan Yuepeng, Zhao Da, and Zhao Hu to come to the imperial study to see me." ”

He originally planned to let Yue Peng, Zhao Da, and Zhao Hu lead the army to Jiangling Mansion to explore the reaction of the Yuan Dynasty. And now that the Yuan Dynasty is even willing to give up the entire Jingnan Road, then there should be no more war in the northern frontier.

Zhao Dongting didn't think that Qi Hongda would come to deceive himself.

Because the Yuan Dynasty had no such motive at all.

He would never directly disperse the troops in northern Xinjiang because of Qi Hongda's words. Could the Yuan Dynasty still find an opportunity to take advantage of the situation?

Since it is unlikely that there will be another war in Northern Xinjiang, Zhao Dongting will of course consider rearranging the policy of peace and security.

The Yuan Dynasty had a vast territory in the north, and there were Huannan West Road, Jiangnan East Road, Liangzhejiang West Road and other places as buffers in the middle, which was indeed not the place where Zhao Dongting planned to plot now.

It is easier to take Shuzhong and Dali than to extinguish the yuan.

Moreover, Liu Zhuwen, Zhang Hongwei and others were already coming to attack the city, and Zhao Dongting and Li Xiushu secretly jointly prepared to destroy the New Song Dynasty. At this time, it is also inconvenient to change the strategic approach.

First destroy the New Song Dynasty and Dali, and then the Yuan Dynasty. This is the strategy that Zhao Dongting had set earlier, and now he will inevitably continue to follow this strategy.

"Your Majesty!"

In a short time, Yue Peng, Zhao Da, and Zhao Hu were all taken to the imperial study. Just about to kneel, he was dismissed by Zhao Dongting with a wave of his hand.

Zhao Dongting looked at Yue Peng and said directly: "Yue Peng, when can the army set off for Jiangling Mansion?" ”

Yue Peng replied: "Back to the emperor, the Tiankui army is ready and ready to set off at any time!" ”

"Hmm!"

Zhao Dongting nodded, "Then tomorrow I will lead the Tiankui army straight to Xiangyang Mansion." ”

Yue Peng was surprised, "Go to Xiangyang Mansion?" ”

Zhao Dongting nodded affirmatively, "If there is no accident, the Yuan Dynasty should give up the entire Jingnan Road." Within a few days, their large army stationed in our northern frontier should also be withdrawn. It is no longer necessary to station in Jiangling Mansion to deter them, go straight to Xiangyang Mansion, and I will take the two armies of Tianjie and Tianxiong to march west along the Jingnan Road, and strive to join the Tianmeng and Tianyong armies in Kuizhou Ludazhou as soon as possible. ”

"Your Majesty, do you want to fight the New Song Dynasty?"

Yue Peng's eyes lit up, and he asked.

Zhao Dongting suddenly laughed incomprehensibly, "The new Song Dynasty is definitely going to fight." However, before fighting the New Song Dynasty, he may have to help the Empress of Western Xia first. ”

Yue Peng was at a loss.

Zhao Dongting waved his hand, "I'll talk about it later." When the time comes, I will send a message to you. ”

He didn't know when Li Xiushu would take Pang Hongguang and those people under the knife, and he didn't know if Yue Peng would be able to rush over in time, so he didn't plan to say more.

Li Xiushu wants to make a move against Pang Hongguang and others, which is still a secret. Even those humerus ministers in the Great Song Dynasty know very little.

When Yue Peng saw Zhao Dongting like this, he also agreed, and only asked Zhao Dongting, "Your Majesty, what about grain and grass?" ”

His army traveled a long way from Kuizhou Road to Changsha, although there were cities to support grain and grass on the way, but now, there is not much grain and grass.

After all, the grain hoarded by the Great Song Dynasty in the past two years is still limited, and many granaries have been burned down by the rioters.

Almost all the grain that can be pumped out has already been pumped out.

And even so, Yue Peng's army did not have much surplus food.

Speaking of this, even Zhao Dongting couldn't help frowning slightly.

It's not that he can't raise food and grass, but this kind of thing is too laborious, and it always makes people feel a little irritable.

But there is no way, who made him the emperor.

After sighing twice in his heart, Zhao Dongting only said: "The matter of grain and grass, and first bring some grain and grass out of the city from the granary in the city." When you go to Xiangyang Mansion, the grain and grass in the house are all returned, and when you go west, all the provinces and towns along the way can also buy grain, if those officials of the Yuan Dynasty do not allow it, they will be cut directly. If that's not enough, I'll find a way to raise it then. ”

Yue Peng nodded lightly, his face excited.

He knew that after arriving in the state, there would inevitably be another war.

And beside him, Zhao Da and Zhao Hu, two reckless men, also looked at Zhao Dongting with blank eyes, but there was no light.

Yue Peng got a good errand to lead the army to Dazhou, but it made them quite envious.

Seeing that Zhao Dongting and Yue Peng finally finished speaking, Zhao Dadang couldn't help but ask, "Your Majesty, where are we going with the Flying Dragon Army?" ”

His eyes were like a wangfu stone, and his eyes made Zhao Dongting feel a little numb all over. I remembered the experience of being washed by these two black men in Baicao Valley before.

This stunned the smile on his face dissipated.

Zhao Dongting suddenly became a little angry, "The Flying Dragon Army is not going anywhere." I'm in Changsha, doesn't Changsha need to be guarded? ”

Zhao Da and Zhao Hu were directly stunned, unable to understand how the emperor's face suddenly turned cloudy.

Did the two brothers say something wrong?

Zhao Hu looked at Zhao Da with some resentment.

Because he didn't speak just now, it could only be that Zhao Dagang's words provoked the emperor.

Zhao Da's face was dazed.

I also asked the emperor where the Flying Dragon Army went, is this also a mistake?

Just looking at Zhao Dongting's stunned face, the two brothers didn't dare to say anything.

What they are most afraid of is the two mothers-in-law in the family who have amazing martial arts cultivation, but the most fearful one is definitely the current emperor Zhao Dongting.

Zhao Dongting rebuilt them with kindness.

And Zhao Dongting saw that the two brothers looked stupid, and suddenly he couldn't help but want to laugh.

He endured it and waved his hand angrily, "We are staying in Changsha City." Later, I may have to go to Liangzhexi Road with me. ”

Zhao Da blinked his eyes and asked, "Your Majesty, what are you doing on Liangzhexi Road?" ”

Zhao Dongting covered his forehead, his eyes glazed, "The Yuan Dynasty negotiated peace, and returned Huainan West Road, Liangzhejiang West Road and other places to my Great Song Dynasty." In the past, the Lin'an Mansion was in the territory of Liangzhejiang West Road, and I promised the old ministers of the court and the old soldiers of Jinzhou Island that when the Lin'an Mansion was recovered, I would take them to Lin'an City! Say, "What am I going to do?" ”

"Oh......"

Zhao Da scratched his head and shrank back timidly.
