In the Wende Palace, Zhao Zhen looked at the nervous Pang Ji and the frowning and contemplative Bao Zheng and said: "If you have nothing to do, you can quickly retreat, I still have a big stack of music to see here, so I won't leave the two of you to eat in the palace!" ”

Bao Zheng shook his head and asked bluntly: "I don't know what the official family has to do?" ”

Similarly, Pang Ji also has the same question, otherwise he would not have bowed down with Bao Zheng, what the official family just said made them really feel bottomless...... They can only leave with peace of mind after getting the emperor's accurate plan.

Looking at the persistent appearance of the two of them, Zhao Zhen knew that if he didn't tell them, these two old goods would be able to spend it in the Wende Palace, and they would spread the matter throughout the two mansions, after all, it was the best way for them to put pressure on the emperor together.

This is a habit that literati have cultivated for many years, and Zhao Zhen knows that it is not okay not to tell them, and many of these things even require their cooperation to be completed seamlessly, with few flaws.

Walking down the imperial steps of the Wende Palace, Zhao Zhen waved his hand, and the attendants in the hall walked away.

"In fact, the reason is also simple, I asked Di Qing to secretly dispatch soldiers back to the dynasty, and gradually reduce the strength of the dynasty in the northwest, the more secretive the better, so that the first thing will not be discovered by the party members, so as to make a bold mess.

Second, in order to prevent the Liao Dynasty spies from learning about the situation, at this time, he Yelu Hongji should have also started to go to Zhongjing Road from the land of Dongtao.

The third is to create a false impression for the Liao people, as if my Great Song Dynasty is still putting its troops in the northwest, and has no time to take care of the defense of Beiping Mansion, I am luring them to do it, as for whether the Liao people will go south, this is still uncertain, be prepared. ”

Zhao Zhen said it easily, but Pang Ji and Bao Zheng were shocked, Beijing City is now the center of the Great Song Dynasty, where the imperial capital of a country is located, the official move is obviously gambling, and it is a big gamble to press the most important thing in the Great Song Dynasty!

Not only Beijing City, Beiping Mansion, Datong Mansion, and even the entire land of Yanyun have surpassed the existence of Tokyo Chenkaifeng Mansion, and the prosperity here has surpassed the original Great Song Dynasty Sijing, and it is the most prosperous place in the entire Great Song Dynasty.

If the Liao Dynasty really came to attack Yanyun, once there was a business trip, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"Your Majesty, never!"

Bao Zheng almost opened his mouth in horror to object: "The land of Yanyun is my Great Song Jinggi, since the Western Xia has been pacified, it is just the internal relocation of the party members, and the ability does not need so many troops, it is better to let the soldiers return to the dynasty to strengthen the country's prestige." ”

Pang Ji was silent, he knew what Bao Zheng meant, this was to let the official family transfer troops back, and it was an open and honest transfer of troops, so as to intimidate the Liao people and make them dare not try to go south at will.

But if the official family had such an idea, they would not have rewarded the three armies and secretly sent them back, since the Western Xia had surrendered and the party had moved inward, it would not have been possible to use so many troops, and the official family would have taken the Liao people by surprise.

Pang Ji saw the official who was about to refute, bowed down and said: "Your Majesty's meaning is that the ministers know that this is giving the Liao people a false appearance, making them think that my Great Song soldiers are mostly in the northwest, if the Liao people come to attack, my Great Song Dynasty should attack them head-on, in order to break their schemes, if the Liao people do not come, then these soldiers can be stationed in rotation and recuperate?" ”

Although it was in a rhetorical tone, every sentence was to the point, and Zhao Zhen nodded slightly: "Pang Xianggong's words are very good!" This is what I mean, now that my Great Song Dynasty has just annexed Western Xia, this is an opportunity to recuperate, and we can't use troops in a row, but if we don't have everything, how can we resist the northern trouble? said that it was tempted by Beiping Mansion and even the entire Yanyun, but in fact, it was just wishful thinking! ”

After Zhao Zhen finished speaking, he took the two of them to the apse of the Wende Palace, in the huge palace is an extremely fine map of surveying and mapping, the mountains and rivers on it, and even the cultural landforms are clearly depicted, this is the literati of Chongwenyuan sorted out the various information sent back by the black hand from the Liao Dynasty and finally drew it, it really took a lot of effort.

Zhao Zhen pointed to the map and said: "If the Liao people go south, my Great Song Dynasty will resist them with the army on the border, supplemented by surprise soldiers, ambush soldiers, and flank attacks, not to win a big victory, but to kill the enemy as the priority!" I want to make the Liao soldiers suffer heavy losses! Even if you give up the land of Miyun, you have to leave more lives of the Liao people! ”

Pang Ji and Bao Zheng glanced at each other a little puzzled: "I don't know what Your Majesty means by this?" No matter how many Liao people were killed or injured, they were also on the land of my Great Song Dynasty, and there was not much land in our Great Song Dynasty, but Miyun was in danger, and the gains outweighed the losses. ”

Zhao Zhen nodded: "That's true, but what I want is to kill and injure as many Liao people as possible, this is the result of my thoughts, the war is about money, yes, but it is also a domestic strong man, if the Liao people are affected by disasters this winter, and they wave their troops south to make up for it, I will make the Liao people suffer, and the more I kill, the weaker the strength of the Liao people." Don't forget that my Great Song Dynasty has a population of tens of thousands, and it is by no means a mere Liao people to defeat the enemy. ”

Peeling back the cocoon, slowly reasoning, Zhao Zhen put his conspiracy together to Pang Ji and Bao Zheng, there is no doubt that the two were stunned by Zhao Zhen's words, so the official family plans to use Yanyun of the Great Song Dynasty as poison?

Bao Zheng said with a little worry: "That...... What if the Liao people didn't go south to commit crimes? ”

Zhao Zhen said with a little embarrassment: "If the Liao people are stable in their duties, then my actions are really to send the soldiers of the Western Expedition back to Beijing, anyway, they will take turns to fight on the border, and there will always be a time when they can go home." ”

Bao Zheng stopped talking, that's right, the official's move is indeed a retreat, but the cost is really a bit too much, just the internal relocation of the party members cost half a year of the imperial court's taxes, and the reward for the three armies has used up a lot of money in the treasury, and the eyes of the three people who have looked at the treasury recently have been a little red......

Zhao Zhen sat down on the easy chair and asked while shaking: "I summoned the two ministers to stay and perform, in order to let the two of them think about it, how many percent of the Liao people will go south this winter?" ”

It turned out to be this matter, figuring out a country is actually similar to figuring out a person, it all depends on the state that the person is in now, Pang Ji said: "Official, the minister thinks that the Liao Dynasty should be related to the degree of cold this winter, if the sky is cold, the inkstone is strong, the possibility of the Liao people going south is great, if not, it is small......"

Bao Zheng has a different view on this: "The minister thinks that the Liao people should mainly look at the preparation of the Liao Dynasty when they go south, the Liao Dynasty has obtained most of the land in the Hetao, and the grain must have been plundered, and after a few years of recuperation, it is impossible to say that the Liao Dynasty has no way to deal with it."

If the reserves are sufficient, even if this winter is extremely cold, the Liao people can withstand this winter, and when the spring flowers bloom, they will pay attention to grain, and they will definitely use all possible means to raise grain to prevent winter disasters. ”

Bao Zheng's words were reasonable, and they just stabbed Zhao Zhen's worries, yes, he was worried that the Liao people would survive this winter, where would people get up if they fell there, let alone a country?

If the Liao people survive this winter, it will be troublesome......
