Chapter 471: Listening to thunder in a silent place
Zhao Zhen was very satisfied with the military exercise he had seen with his own eyes, and the orders for various operations were heard in different drums and whistles, and the army was changing its formation in an orderly manner.
Sancai walked into the palace tent with a small wooden box with a lock, the wooden box was sealed with special red wax to ensure that there was no trace of damage, Zhao Zhen picked up the key on his body to open the small lock, and it was neatly played.
With Zhao Zhen's personal tour of the military exercise, many necessary performances were passed through the situation of urgent delivery, which is not a difficult thing for the Great Song Dynasty with a highway network all over the country today.
The convenience of transportation not only brought this benefit, but also made the speed of the army faster, and also allowed the news to circulate throughout the country.
Zhao Zhen handled political affairs as usual, even if the military exercise was too busy, he would not delay the government, because he knew that one day would be wasted, and then he would have to "pay off the debt".
For more than an hour, Sancai stood aside and waited silently, until Zhao Zhen finished processing the last notebook, Sancai began to sort it out, which was a habit for many years, no matter where it was.
But this time there were three more letters, not from the important ministers of the court, but from the princesses and princes.
Zhao Zhen picked up the three textbooks and carefully reviewed them, Sancai had never seen the official family take the schoolwork of the emperor's heirs so seriously, as if he was reviewing the notes of the ministers of the two governments, but it was more of his father's kindness.
Seeing the progress of the children, the official family will smile, and when he sees the mistakes, he also smiles and shakes his head to write down the inappropriateness, and the official family that Sancai sees at this time is a kind father, a father who worries about his children, not the emperor of a country.
It seems that the fatigue of the day is released with the release of three schoolwork full of immature handwriting, Sancai really hopes that there can be a little more like this, these schoolwork must be from the handwriting of Zhonggong Niangniang and those two.
Sancai can imagine that the three forbidden hostesses must be extremely worried, they are afraid that this military exercise of the Great Song Dynasty will become a real war, and they are even more worried that the official family will become a royal conquest in this personal patrol.
No one knew Zhao Zhen's plan, including Sancai and everyone in the forbidden school, and the only one who knew the plan was Yang Huaiyu, who was the minister of the two mansions and the front division of the palace.
The emperor's personal tour of the military exercise could not be contained, and almost all the people of the Great Song Dynasty knew about it, but they felt that this was a manifestation of the official's work for the country, and instead of speculating, they even supported and praised the official's actions.
Since the defeat of the Northern Expedition of the Great Song Dynasty, a fear of war has risen in the hearts of the people of the Great Song Dynasty, and what Zhao Zhen has done is to break the continuation of this emotion, he wants everyone to see that the current Great Song Dynasty is not afraid of war.
Zhao Zhen used a brush to draw a cute panda on his daughter's schoolwork, then drew a book on his eldest son's schoolwork, and finally took a long time to draw a sword on his younger son's schoolwork.
This is a special gift for the three children, Ling'er has long wanted to comprehend a panda in the back garden into his dormitory, and Zhao Xu has also been allowed to enter Chongwen Garden at any time, and Zhao Yun has also obtained the sword he has always dreamed of.
Everything was dealt with, Zhao Zhen stretched his waist, there was no difference between being in the tent and in the palace, anyway, he slept in the bed, he didn't have a problem choosing a bed, he could sleep anywhere after a busy day. On the contrary, he slept more soundly in the military tent surrounded by the army.
The morning sun is fair, it wakes up the soldiers and the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty at the same time, the military exercise will come as scheduled and will return as scheduled, today is the last day of the Great Song Dynasty military exercise, and it is also the day when everyone has to leave Shimenpu.
Di Qing and the others had already figured out the terrain and roads here, and covered the return of the secret agents lurking in the land of Yanyun under the huge military exercise.
It was too easy for the Great Song Dynasty to arrange secret agents in the land of smoke and clouds, because this was a settlement of Han people, and Han people could be seen everywhere, and they didn't have to worry about being suspected by others, at most they were discriminated against by the Liao people.
The purpose of these agents is to gather information about the local area, including geographical conditions, transportation conditions, troop deployment, and even trivial folk customs.
Zhao Zhen spent a lot of thought in order to be able to quickly and quickly take the land of Yanyun, including economic, cultural help, the merchants of the Great Song Dynasty treated the people of the land of Yanyun like the people in the Great Song Dynasty, all the goods were of good quality and low price, and culturally Confucianism was popular in Yanyun.
The descendants of Confucius were all moved out to preach in this land that belonged to China in order to preach the benevolence of Confucianism, teach the children their studies for free, and almost brought the great benevolence and great love to the extreme, which was a cultural invasion, making the land that was originally loyal to Confucianism more eager to return to the Great Song Dynasty.
The upper echelons of the Liao Dynasty did not see the influence of the Great Song Dynasty on the smoke clouds, just as those standing on a high mountain could not see the path halfway up the mountain, and they were blinded by the trees of confidence.
Zhao Zhen looked at Xia Zhu, who was hurrying to the side, and said, "It's just the information of a few secret agents, why is Xia Xianggong so panicked?" ”
Xia Zhu smiled helplessly: "Your Majesty doesn't know, the news brought by those spies will definitely surprise Your Majesty, this is the news from Shangjing of the Liao Dynasty, the Liao Emperor is disgusted with Western Xia, and many of the border people in the Liao Dynasty have been attached to Western Xia, and they will survive in the interval, and they are afraid of using troops against Western Xia!" ”
Zhao Zhen looked at the information on the table blankly, and the compressed military ration in his hand fell on the table, this is really God's favor, when the Great Song Dynasty was about to take action against the land of Yanyun, the Liao Dynasty actually wanted to use troops against Western Xia.
The first thing Zhao Zhen did after reading all the secret reports was to let all the secret spies of the Great Song Dynasty in the Liao Dynasty be active, collect all the incidents about the friction between the Liao Dynasty and the Western Xia as much as possible, and also let all the secret spies of the Western Xia be active to collect things that might cause the Liao Dynasty to be angry.
This is a kind of preparation before the war, and it is also a military method, Di Qing and Yang Huaiyu do not understand the mystery, in their opinion, the role of the intermediary can only be a little bit of a matter in collecting intelligence, and other places are not worth mentioning.
But Zhao Zhen used the facts to fight back against their arrogance, the soldiers and the people are not in the same system, the soldiers advocate frontal battles and defeat the enemy in a dignified manner, while the people are dressed in brocade clothes and walk at night, listening to thunder in a silent place.
When Di Qing and Yang Huaiyu saw the intelligence from these secret spy mobile phones, they faced up to the role of the secret spy for the first time, and were shocked by the results of the secret spy for the first time, the role of these intelligence on the upcoming Northern Expedition is undoubted, they can provide the best time to attack and the state of the Liao Dynasty.
"It's hard to find!"
Di Qing's words defined the ultimate value of this information.
