The partial hall of Taiyuan Palace is the place where Liu Zhiyuan manages politics and meets his ministers every day. When Liu Chengyou and Guo Wei entered the front and back feet, there were already many people standing inside. In addition to Liu Chengxun, there are familiar faces such as Liu Chong, Yang Wei, Wang Zhang, Liu Xin, Shi Hongzhao, Bai Wenke, and Chang Si.

However, today, several other generals have been added, such as Guo Congyi, the Marquis of Yu, the commander of the Mabu Army, Li Hongxin, the commander of the Crane Army, and Shang Hongqian, the commander of the Xingjie Right Wing, all of whom are the backbone generals in the armies. Wang Jun and Zhang Yanwei have also been listed.

Before long, accompanied by two chamberlains, Liu Zhiyuan entered with strong steps, walking with a tiger and a domineering side. After sitting down and accepting the civil and military worship, Fang Feng signaled to Su Fengji: "Tell the situation to the secretaries!" ”

"Yes!" Su Fengji came out of the ranks, responded respectfully, then looked at everyone, and said: "Your Majesty ascended the throne, the world shook, the Khitan Lord was furious, and he had already taken away His Majesty's official position......

When he said this, the corners of Su Fengji's mouth involuntarily curled up a little smile, and the courtiers below were also disdainful. After a slight pause, Su Fengji continued: "However, the Khitan Lord is very jealous of my emperor's practice, and has already taken countermeasures. The news of Bianliang flew in, and the Khitan lord took Geng Chongmei, the general secretary, as the envoy of the Luzhou Festival, Gao Tangying as the envoy of the Xiangzhou Festival, and Cui Tingxun as the envoy of the Heyang Festival, so as to be the imperial guard. ”

"The Khitan army in the Central Plains has been transferred to the north. Carefully explore, along the Taihang line of the states and counties, also strengthened the garrison ......"

The words fell, and the hall was quiet for a while, Liu Zhiyuan looked around and waved his hand to signal Su Fengji to step back, and spoke: "What do you think about the reaction of the Khitans?" ”

At this time, without waiting for others to speak out, Wang Jun was anxious to perform, and said: "Your Majesty, Luzhou, Xiangzhou, and Heyang are guarding the key points. When the three of them are not in time to take up their duties, they should strike first, drive their troops south, occupy important places, and seize the opportunity......"

"Wang Jun's words, there is some truth!" Wang Jun only paused for a moment, and Shi Hongzhao immediately picked it up, his tone was impatient, and he said loudly: "Your Majesty should deal with a strong enemy in the south, don't waste time on Shi Chonggui's dead monarch!" ”

Wang Jun was robbed of Shi Hongzhao's words, there was contempt in his tone, his face was a little ugly, his anger flashed slightly, and he retreated aggrievedly.

Shi Hongzhao didn't care about the reaction of Wang Jun, a small character, and looked at Liu Zhiyuan to see his opinion. He also mentioned it again, he has already been proclaimed emperor, and they really don't understand Liu Zhiyuan's stubbornness in leading troops east to rescue the young emperor of Jin and do that senseless thing, and they have opposing opinions.

Liu Zhiyuan raised his hand directly and said stubbornly: "This matter has been decided, and there is no doubt about it. Today, I summoned the ministers to deal with the Khitan, don't do anything else! ”

"That being the case, the last general dares to invite, lead the vanguard army, drive the king, take Lu, Ze, and Huai Prefectures first, drink Ma Yiluo, and clear the obstacles to His Majesty's march!" Shi Hongzhao surrendered his hand, his face full of confidence.

"It seems that Shi Aiqing is in favor of marching!" Liu Zhiyuan said.

"The minister is against!" It was Yang Wei who spoke out: "Your Majesty, the heavy Khitan troops are still gathered in the Central Plains, and their strength is still there. Even if our army is strong and has a hard encounter with the enemy, it will inevitably suffer damage, and it will be powerless. And now is the spring ploughing season, the sword and soldiers together, will miss the agricultural time, now is not the best time to enter the army, please Your Majesty bear with me for the time being! ”

As if wearing the same pants as Yang Wei, Wang Zhang also got up and echoed: "If our army marches into the Central Plains, it will definitely pour out of the nest and go south with all its might, preparing grain, grass and ordnance, mobilizing people, and arranging state and county guards, all of which can be properly ...... in a moment."

As soon as the two of them spoke, Shi Hongzhao suddenly became anxious, glared at Yang and Wang and asked: "At the beginning, the two of you also agreed with Your Majesty to raise troops, but now Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven, just when you are forging ahead and fighting for the country." But in half a month, why change your words, your two attitudes have become too fast! ”

Hearing his words, Yang Wei and Wang Zhang couldn't help but glance at each other, and they both saw a little annoyance in each other's eyes. And Liu Zhiyuan's side, there was also a trace of innocence on his face, and he looked at Shi Hongzhao: "Don't be rude!" ”

"The last general is in a hurry, and I ask Your Majesty to forgive me!" was stared at by Liu Zhiyuan, Shi Hongzhao was a little more honest, but there was still resentment in his tone: "Your Majesty sent an edict in front of him, spread the word to the world, and called on the subjects of the world to fight against the Khitan." Now that I have elite soldiers and warriors, I am still trapped in the east of the river, cowering, how does this make the people of the world think of it? ”

"Soldiers, the major affairs of the country, should judge the situation and take the appropriate ones to do it!" Yang Wei immediately said: "Now that the enemy is strong and I am weak, we need to act more cautiously and not be reckless!" Your Majesty's postponement of sending troops is really based on the overall situation, and when everything is ready, you can go straight to the Central Plains with one blow! ”

"I think you're scared of war!" Shi Hongzhao didn't hold back, pushed back, and said with contempt for Yang Wei: "Geng Chongmei, Gao Tangying, and Cui Tingxun are all kinds of people, but they are unknowns, what are they afraid of, they can be calmed down!" ”

"General Shi must not underestimate the people of the world, you need to know that arrogant soldiers are easy to lose!"

“......”

"Enough!" Seeing that the civil and military controversy intensified, Liu Zhiyuan finally couldn't help it, and after calming down the dispute, he said slowly: "Use troops to divide the urgency, and take measures according to the situation." Now the Khitan people are in Jingyi, and their momentum is flourishing, and they can not be moved lightly without other changes. The secretary needs to take a long-term view and wait for it to change! ”

The meaning of Liu Zhiyuan's words was already obvious, and he did not move. Although Shi Hongzhao has a violent temper, he is not incomprehensible, even if he is unwilling, he no longer dares to argue with Yang and Wang in the palace. I had to shut up and glared at both of them hatefully.

"Your Majesty, even if you don't enter the army, the Khitan has action, and our dynasty should also have a countermeasure. If we don't do anything, the world will look down on us! Shi Hongzhao stopped talking, and Wang Jun spoke again.

Liu Zhiyuan groaned, seemed to feel that this statement was reasonable, and thought about it seriously. After a long time, he said, "What do you think?" ”

"Far is not possible, near is preferable!" Guo Wei stood up at this time and answered slowly.

"Speak!"

"Daizhou Wang Hui, subordinate to Hedong, dared to rebel against Jin and return to the Khitan, and became independent. The previous time, His Majesty let him run rampant for the sake of the Khitan and let him go for a few days. Now, just swinging the army to attack it, not only to calm the elbow and armpits, but also to raise my majesty! Guo Wei said.

When his words fell, Liu Zhiyuan's eyes suddenly lit up slightly, gave Guo Wei an approving look, and asked directly: "Who is leading the troops?" ”

As soon as Wang Jun's body moved, Shi Hongzhao had already said in a loud voice: "The minister is willing to go, and within five days, he will be in Daizhou!" ”

His eyes stayed on Shi Hongzhao for a while, and Liu Zhiyuan almost didn't think about it, and directly agreed. After all, Shi Hongzhao is his favorite general, and today the palace has been swept away, and a Wang Hui can be leveled, and he should be appeased.

A palace meeting ended quickly. Wang Jun was very aggrieved, Shi Hongzhao was not happy, and the others were watching the play.

Liu Chengyou didn't say a word, and throughout the whole process, he watched Shi Hongzhao arguing with Yang Wei and Wang Zhang. From beginning to end, no one helped him speak, not even Guo Wei, who was a good friend on weekdays, and the difference in popularity of this guy can be seen from this.

Liu Chengyou didn't know what Liu Zhiyuan liked about him, if he wanted to say that he was brave, he was everywhere in the army, and if he could fight, he Shi Hongzhao was not a famous general......
