Chapter 1066 Grand Strategy

At this moment, Su You was both a little disappointed, a little relieved, and even a little ashamed.

The reason for the disappointment is that Zhao Ji is not a perfect king after all, and the war between countries, the life and death of an individual participant, is it important?

Guiyi Hou, An Le Gong, for a politician, as a means of surrender, isn't it fragrant?

Su You has been able to do it for decades, and I feel that if I can exchange a small title for Qingtang, or even just for the safety of the Song Army's West Road when the Great Song Dynasty conquers Western Xia, it will already be fragrant.

But Zhao Ji now said that it was not fragrant, and if he wanted to come to Jing Sili, he would also say that it was not fragrant, and the six little envoys would even say that it was not fragrant.

Zhao Ji said that it was not fragrant, which showed that he still retained a blood and a human nature, which was a very precious quality for the emperor. So Su You was a little relieved.

It is a shame that he ignored this point completely out of the calculation of the national economy and political situation.

Su You is even a little jealous of Zhao Ji, there are only politicians in this world who can occasionally be willful, I'm afraid there are only emperors.

waved his hand: "Let's discuss this again, or you need to make some adjustments to Qingtang's strategy, Guo Dutong will continue to say." ”

Guo Kui said: "The other force is the Liao State. Please explain this to His Majesty. ”

Tong Guan took the baton: "The Liao lord Yelu Hongji is stupid and incompetent, first there was the Chongyuan Rebellion, and then there was Yelu Yixin's arbitrary power and disorderly government. ”

"And the Liao lord is loyal and treacherous, addicted to wine, and makes the powerful ministers in power, resulting in the queen Xiao Guanyin and the prince Yelujun being unjustly killed by him one after another, and the prince's party was slaughtered, which brought great turmoil to the Liao government."

"Coupled with the worship of Buddhism, the love of safaris, the great fame, and the waste of national strength, the current national situation of the Liao State has suffered a great setback."

"The drama of "Echo Courtyard" spread to Zhangzi Island and Ludao, and the Liao people who came to trade watched the drama, and all of them wept bitterly, and there were those who cut their faces to mourn."

"However, last autumn, the lord of Liao accepted the advice of the minister, ordered the emperor and grandson to hunt with him, and began to release Yelu Yixun's henchmen."

"At the same time, he was promoted to the rank of prince and ordered to go to Que to thank him, but he was repatriated on the same day and changed his knowledge of the affairs of Xingzhong."

"In March this year, Gengyin, the emperor of Liao, the nephew of the emperor, was outside, and the emperor Sun Yanxi was appointed as the king of Liang, and he was only six years old at the time, and he was considered to have determined the heir."

"Immediately followed by the Zhongshun Army Jiedu to make Yelu Pode the king of the Southern Yuan, the Guangde Army Jiedu to make Yelu Zhongxi the privy envoy of the Southern Yuan, and the household department to make Chen Yi participate in political affairs. Other than that...... He also specially set up six guards for the emperor's grandson, Liang Wang Yanxi. ”

"I am in the court, and His Majesty is the congratulatory envoy. Now that the chapter has returned, in the official chapter, it is said that the lord of Liao has been in power for a long time and knows the stakes and interests. With the imperial court and the good thoughts, the Han people recuperate, everyone lives in peace, and they are not happy to fight. ’”

"In the encrypted letter, it is claimed that the Liao Dynasty is deaf and deaf, and is in a hunt, while the northern Tatars and the eastern Nuzhi have already rebelled, and the Liao Dynasty is busy with conquest."

Su You added: "In fact, we have been using the Liao government brought by Yelu Yixun to co-opt and corrupt the officials and generals on the Song-Liao border, and buy and infiltrate. ”

Now it seems that the Liao Emperor has begun to prepare for Yelu Yixun to make a move, and the next step of the Military Aircraft Department is to take advantage of the situation and strive to support several officials to enter the high-ranking official sequence of the Liao Dynasty in this struggle. and strive to further influence the direction of the Liao dynasty. ”

Zhao Ji is already familiar with Su You, and the layout of Hehuang has started in at least ten years.

The earlier the investment, the lower the cost, Su You actually gave Wang Shao only hundreds of thousands of yuan, and Wang Shao didn't need him to continue to invest in the later stage.

Zhangzidao is also a huge pit, and the funds circulating there now include the treasury silver of Liaoyang Mansion and many coastal states and counties of Liaoguo Province!

Countless officials and even officials have opened accounts in the Sitong Money Village on Zhangzi Island, and Tang Shilang can only hand over the money and deliver the goods with one hand regardless of the source of funds.

People's greed is endless, and taking the money in the state treasury to do their own business, and paying taxes to make a short-term loan first has become a common phenomenon in the coastal states and counties of the Liao Dynasty.

In the past, salt played an important role in trade smuggling, both as a commodity and as a currency.

Now salt can no longer be used as currency circulation, after the Song State untied the salt policy, after the new salt drying method and wind irrigation salt fields were put into operation, the output of salt in the Song State increased greatly, not to mention, the quality has been greatly improved.

The officials of the Liao State suffered great losses in several salt trades, and the salt that they had worked so hard to transport to Zhangzidao was shocked by the Song salt and became worthless.

After the Liao officials reluctantly sold the salt, the price of salt on Zhangzi Island slowly returned to above the average price.

After a few times, the officials of the Liao State also learned to be obedient, but Yuanfeng Tongbao and the like are too damaging to the national character, but fortunately, there is still foreign money to choose from.

Chen Yi, the new governor of Liao, spent a total of 150,000 guan to operate to this official position, while the Chen family's porcelain workshop in Yaozhou only produced about 10,000 guan a year.

The remaining 140,000 guan was obtained by the Chen family by selling diatomaceous earth on the Liaodong Peninsula.

140,000 guan, that is, 140,000 tons of diatomaceous earth, the taste of diatomaceous earth in Liaodong Peninsula is extremely high, almost can be used directly, enough to support the yellow explosives industry in Yunzhou, to meet the urgent needs of Song Yongchen and Wang Kechen to govern the Yellow River.

Zhao Ji asked Su You: "Mingrun, do you say that there is a person like Chen Yi in my Great Song Dynasty?" ”

Su You bowed down and said: "This is the affairs of the Imperial City Division, if there is one, change it, and if not, encourage it." However, in his opinion, economic penetration is generally ...... Or my Da Song has an advantage. ”

A slight smile rose at the corner of Zhao Ji's mouth: "Gentleman asks for guilt, Mingrun, what you said is right." Those Liao officials really don't know that the Song people who are active on Zhangzi Island have the background of the Great Song Dynasty? That Tang Shilang, who saw the head and the tail, was really a maritime merchant with no nationality? Is it true that the imported money in their accounts was exported to Zhangzi Island through Goryeo? ”

"All they need is a reason to deceive themselves. And the national politics of the Liao Dynasty are rotten to this, I really feel sorry for my cheap uncle. ”

Song Renzong once called Yelu Hongji "nephew emperor", and from this point of view, Zhao Ji had to call Yelu Hongji uncle.

Through the comparison of rotten, Zhao Ji's heart is much more stable, and he feels that he has gained a lot from coming to the military aircraft department this time.

Looking at the huge map, the audience analyzed the pros and cons, and there was really a smell of rebuke.

Guo Kui took the baton from Tong Guan and continued: "After discussion, the Military Aircraft Department feels that if there is an opportunity for Western Xia, our army can attack in multiple ways. ”

"The Left Route Army, starting from the Xihe River, seized Lanzhou. The goal was to completely cut off the connection between Western Xia and Qingtang, and at the same time make a posture that threatened Xiliang Mansion and cut off the communication between Sha, Gua, Gan, Su and other western states and Xingqing Province. ”

"This way we need to borrow the Qingtang Dynasty, it is not an area traditionally controlled by our army, we need to negotiate with Dong Yu, and it is best to jointly send troops."

"On the right road, with the Yongxing military road as the mainstay, advance into the four states of Yanxia and Yinhong, advance our army's defense line to the south of the Great Wall, completely seize the overall geographical advantage of Xia, and at the same time cut off the connection between the Shenyong Military Division of the left wing and Xingqing Mansion."

"And the Zhijia army on Linfu Road, along the Tumao River and Quye River, attacked Jinze, controlled Nuanquan Peak and Turbidity Wheel Village, the goal is to cut off the channel for Western Xia to ask for help from the Liao State, and win more time for our army."

"The middle road army occupies an absolute geographical advantage, when the Hulu River condescendingly attacked, after taking the reward shift, establish an advance base, and then enter Mingsha, Xiping, the decisive battle Xingqing!"

"This road is a decisive army, will usher in the Baotai Military Division, Jingsai Military Division, Xingqing Mansion Garrison Army three-way army attack, it is expected that the enemy's army strength is more than 200,000, if the Western Xia is fully mobilized, it will reach 500,000."

Zhao Ji asked, "How much military strength can our army deploy?" ”

Guo Kui said: "If the strategic goal of the Yongxing Military Road is only to advance along the Great Wall, control the four prefectures of Yanxia and Yinhong, and snipe the reinforcements of the Shenyong Army Division of the Left Chamber, then the pressure is already great enough, and it is basically impossible to count on." ”

Therefore, the middle road army, that is, Huaide, Zhenrong, Deshun, Hoan, Konghe, plus the new army of Ganyi that Xijing is compiling. As well as the Shaanxi Fanluo, which is affiliated with these military forces, is brave and brave, and it is necessary to retain part of the military strength as a reserve, and those who can attack will total about 100,000. ”

Zhao Ji immediately found out that something was wrong: "Your strategic goal is not to wipe out Western Xia?!" ”

Several veterans didn't dare to speak, and Su You said: "Your Majesty, the eradication of Western Xia is a long-term goal, and there are several key stages to achieve this long-term goal. ”

"The first stage is to capture the important town of Lanzhou, and the four prefectures of Yanxia, and cut off the left and right compartments of Western Xia."

"The second stage is to wait for work, strike at the reinforcements on the left and right compartments, give effective damage to the forces of the Western Xia and the two compartments, and strive to annihilate most of them."

"The third stage is to advance to Xiping, Xingqing, and destroy its national Zuo!"
