The report for help was soon transmitted back to Bianjing.

Zhao Zhen was stunned for a long time after getting the report, and then instructed Chen Lin to summon Kou Ji, Lu Yijian and others into the palace.

Kou Ji was the first to enter the palace, and when he arrived at the Shishitang, Zhao Zhen handed the report of Chong Shiheng's request for help to Kou Ji with a complicated expression.

Kou Ji took the report, glanced at it, was slightly stunned, and then quickly picked up the report, read it carefully, and after reading it, he took the report and didn't open his mouth for a long time.

Lu Yijian entered the palace for the second time, and after entering the palace, he saw Zhao Zhen and Kou Ji sitting in place without saying a word, and looked at the two suspiciously for a long time.

Kou Ji handed the report to Lu Yijian.

Lu Yijian subconsciously took the report and looked through it, and after reading it, his reaction was similar to that of Kou Ji.

Subsequently, Wang Zeng, Zhang Zhibai, and Li Zhaoliang entered the palace one after another.

After entering the palace, he circulated a kind of Shiheng's recital.

After reading it, the reaction was similar to that of Kou Ji.

A few people, you look at me, I look at you, and there was silence for a long time.

Zhao Zhen couldn't help but speak: "Tell me, what does the Black Khan King Yu Sufu mean?" There is no need to put good things in the general trend of attacking, and you have to take the lead in attacking my Great Song.

Does he think that the soldiers and horses of the Black Khan Dynasty are enough to compete with the soldiers and horses of my Great Song Dynasty? ”

Lu Yijian muttered: "He should think so, otherwise he wouldn't have wanted to launch an offensive in advance without waiting for the Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu to lead the soldiers and horses south." ”

Wang Zeng hesitated: "Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu wants to lead his troops south, at least until March next year." In these three and a half months, if we defeat the soldiers and horses of the Black Khan Dynasty, will the Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu give up attacking my Great Song Dynasty? ”

Zhang Zhibai frowned and said, "The Black Khan Dynasty and the Liao Kingdom have a total of 800,000 soldiers and horses. We have 50,000 forbidden troops and 30,000 local soldiers and horses in Hexi, and a total of 80,000 in Calais. There was a tenfold gap in terms of troops, and it was simply impossible to defeat the soldiers and horses of the Black Khan.

Our soldiers and horses from other parts of the country can be dispatched to Shazhou, and it will take as little as half a month to as much as three or five months.

Therefore, it will be difficult for us to defeat the soldiers and horses of the Black Khan Dynasty before March next year.

Even if we defeat the soldiers and horses of the Black Khan Dynasty, the Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu will not give up attacking our Great Song Dynasty.

Because the purpose of his attack on my Great Song this time was to buy time for his son Yelu Zongzhen's growth.

So even if there is no Black Khan Dynasty, he will lead his soldiers and horses to fight with my Great Song Dynasty. ”

Everyone nodded in agreement.

After Zhang Zhibai's voice landed, Kou Ji said in a deep voice: "It has become a foregone conclusion that the Black Khan Dynasty and the Liao State will attack my Great Song Dynasty together, so it doesn't make any sense to say this now.

The Black Khan Dynasty launched an attack in advance, which was both beneficial and harmful to our Great Song Dynasty.

The benefit is that the Black Khan Dynasty launched an attack on our Great Song Dynasty in advance, as long as our Great Song Dynasty can block the attack of the Black Khan Dynasty and drag the footsteps of the Black Khan Dynasty, then when Yelu Longxu of the Liao State leads his troops to attack my Great Song Dynasty, the pressure of the east-west attack will be sharply reduced.

The downside is that the Black Khans have launched an attack ahead of schedule, which is different from our previous deployment. We did not deploy enough troops and horses on the border of Shazhou in time. Therefore, it is difficult to keep the war between the Black Khan Dynasty and my Great Song Dynasty out of the country.

During the period when my Great Song Dynasty dispatched troops, the soldiers and horses of the Black Khan Dynasty would inevitably press my Great Song Dynasty to fight, so my Great Song Dynasty would definitely suffer some losses at the beginning of the war.

When necessary, the soldiers and horses of the Black Khan Dynasty must be put in to fight. ”

After Wang Zeng said this, his face was ugly: "Once the soldiers and horses of the Black Khan Dynasty enter, the fertile fields, woods, and fruit forests in Hexi are likely to be destroyed.

Li Di's years of operation in Hexi will be ruined.

Li Di's mood is probably uncomfortable. ”

Lu Yijian frowned and said, "The fertile land, forests, and fruit forests have been destroyed, and they can still be rebuilt." But if the people are gone, then there is nothing. ”

Wang Zeng said in a deep voice: "Li Di is over seventy years old this year. Whether he can stay in Hexi for a few more years, no one can say. Once the things he runs are destroyed, there is a good chance that he will never see a recovery again in his life. ”

As soon as Wang Zeng said this, everyone in the capital hall fell silent.

After a long time.

Kou Ji said: "Then I will rush to Hexi and talk to Li Gong in detail." Li Gongxin is in Sheji, and he should understand that the destruction of those fertile fields, forests, and fruit forests in Hexi is a last resort. ”

"Hey......"

Wang Zeng sighed and didn't say anything more.

In the face of major events of the country and the dynasty, personal feelings are nothing at all.

Seeing that no one spoke, Kou Ji continued: "Since the Black Khan Dynasty has the intention of launching an attack on my Great Song before the Liao State makes a move, then my Great Song must respond immediately.

According to the previous deployment, once the soldiers and horses of the Black Khan Dynasty came to the border of our Great Song Dynasty, then the Yongxing army would immediately have to be dispatched to Shazhou to help the Zhenxi army.

The entire northern region must also rush to Shazhou as soon as possible.

Yongzhou's Yongzitou Forbidden Army then had to rush to the battlefield in the Western Regions.

The newly built forbidden army in Dali was transferred to Jianchang Mansion.

On the one hand, it deters the domestic Xiaoxiao, and on the other hand, it deters Qingtang.

If Qingtang doesn't make a move, if he does, the newly built forbidden army will enter Qingtang and give Qingtang a head-on blow.

In addition, since the Black Khan Dynasty launched an attack on our Great Song Dynasty.

Then after the beginning of spring, the Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu will inevitably lead the soldiers and horses south.

I should immediately pull out the camp and rush to the border of Song and Liao to sit in the town.

The local soldiers and horses in the northeast should also rush to the border immediately.

In addition, the Zhendong Army stationed in Dengzhou should also go up the coast. ”

"What about the Zhenbei Army?"

Zhang Zhibai asked.

Kou Ji said: "The Zhenbei army continues to sit in the northern frontier, in case the Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu will send soldiers and horses to attack the northern border of our Great Song Dynasty." ”

Lu Yijian said in a deep voice: "In this way, except for the Zhennan Army in Leizhou, my Great Song Dynasty has mobilized all the other soldiers and horses. ”

Kou Ji nodded, "We are currently facing two strong opponents, and then it may become three, so we must go all out." ”

Lu Yijian nodded and didn't say anything more.

To be merciful to the enemy is to be cruel to oneself, and Lu Yijian still understands this truth.

What is about to start is an unprecedented national war.

Da Song can't keep his hand, once he stays behind, it is very likely that the enemy will have a chance to take advantage of it, so he must press it with all his strength.

After Zhao Zhen finished speaking, he said: "After the war starts, the fourth brother will rush to Hexi to sit down, and I will go to Zhending Mansion." Before leaving, I made Zhao Run the crown prince.

Lu Aiqing, Wang Aiqing, Zhang Aiqing, the three of you are in charge of supervising the country. ”

Lu Yijian, Wang Zeng, and Zhang Zhibai heard the words and glanced at each other.

Lu Yijian took the initiative to ask: "Let's go to Zhending Mansion." ”

Zhao Zhen said in a deep voice: "I have made up my mind. ”

"Official ......"

Lu Yijian and the three of them became a little nervous.

Wang Zeng said solemnly: "Official, now that Shiheng is in Shazhou, Di Qing will also go to Shazhou later." Zhu Neng is in Dali, and he has to guard against Dali and Qingtang, so there is no way to transfer out.

Kou Shumi's secret then also went to Shazhou.

Those who rushed to Zhending Mansion were only Li Zhaoliang and Wang Kai.

Therefore, it is better to hand over the errand of Zhending Mansion to Lu Yijian. ”

Implication.

Once the war between the east and west of the Great Song Dynasty unfolded together.

On the Shazhou side, there are many soldiers and generals.

On the Zhending Mansion side, there are enough soldiers and horses, and they are strong enough, but the generals are not wide enough.

Although Li Zhaoliang and Wang Kai are generals, they are not handsome.

It's okay to charge into battle, control the overall situation, and there are some deficiencies.

Therefore, if Zhao Zhen goes to Zhending Mansion to sit down, it will be very dangerous.

Li Zhaoliang heard Wang Zeng indirectly belittle him, pursed his lips slightly, and didn't say much.

My family knows my own business.

Previously, when the Great Song Dynasty conquered Western Xia, he led the troops alone and suffered heavy losses, and he realized that he did not have the talent to be a commander.

If Zhao Zhen really entrusted his life to him, he might not be able to save it.

In order to avoid becoming a sinner in the entire Great Song Dynasty, he didn't dare to be a hero and jumped out to refute Wang Zeng's words.

After Zhao Zhen heard Wang Zeng's words, he said in a deep voice: "It is precisely because of this that I have to go to the town in person. Only in this way can the morale of the army be boosted. ”

Zhang Zhibai said: "The safety of the official family involves the safety of the entire Great Song Dynasty, and the ministers do not approve of the official family taking risks." ”

Zhao Zhen said solemnly: "The three Aiqing are relieved, I am going to Zhending Mansion to sit in the town, not to Shuozhou and other dangerous places, so I don't have to worry about my life." I will hand over the war to Li Zhaoliang and Wang Kai, and I will not interfere.

I sat in the rear and told the soldiers in front of me that I was with them.

If they fail, I will fear for my life.

After I ascended the throne, I took care of the soldiers.

I believe that the soldiers will fight to the end with the Liao people for my life. ”

When Lu Yijian heard this, he still shook his head.

Their attitude was very resolute, but they were unwilling to let Zhao Zhen go to the battlefield.

Zhao Zhen had to look at Kou Ji for help.

Zhao Zhen's purpose of going to the battlefield was not only to boost morale, but also to lure out the Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu and pave the way for Liu Heng's sneak attack on Liao.

So he had to go.

Kou Ji felt Zhao Zhen's gaze asking for help, thought for a moment, and said: "Three, the purpose of this war between my Great Song and the Liao State is to keep the enemy out of the country, not to defeat the enemy and take back the sixteen states of Yanyun.

Therefore, the emphasis is on defense, not on offense.

After the official family went to Zhending Mansion, they only needed to stay in Zhending Mansion and did not need to go to other places.

Therefore, the official family will not have to worry about their lives. ”

When Lu Yijian and the others heard this, they were stunned.

Lu Yijian hurriedly asked, "I, the Great Song Dynasty, won't I take the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun in one fell swoop this time?" ”

Kou Ji shook his head slowly, "A war on both sides, millions of soldiers and horses are fighting. In addition to defeating the enemy, it is already good if we can counterattack one side, and it is simply impossible for both sides to counterattack together.

Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu is a sick tiger, as long as we resist the attack of the Liao State this time, the Liao State in the future will not be afraid.

The Black Khan King Yu Sufu is different from the Qingtang Zanpu Jiaoluo.

They are two strong wolf kings.

We have defeated them this time, if we can't take the opportunity to counterattack them.

When they have recovered their vitality, if I want to counterattack again, the price I will pay will be even greater.

Therefore, if we succeed in blocking the enemy this time, if we want to counterattack, we will also have to counterattack Qingtang and the Black Khan Dynasty.

When we clean up the Qingtang and Black Khan Dynasty and free up our hands, it will not be too late to clean up the Liao Kingdom. ”

After listening to Kou Ji's words, Lu Yijian and the three of them fell into deep thought.

Seeing this, Kou Ji continued: "If we plan like this, we will have a better chance of winning. Two quiet and two eternal, if the 200,000 forbidden army is only guarding against the Liao soldiers, the loss will be very small.

If you counterattack Liao, the losses will be great.

There is a possibility of losing.

If we wait for us to take Qingtang and the Black Khan Dynasty, we are concentrating our forces to counterattack the Liao State.

We can send more troops and horses to counterattack Liao.

When the time comes, the losses will be smaller.

Recovering Yanyun is like probing for something. ”

Lu Yijian heard Kou Ji's words, and said in a deep voice: "The old man agrees with your idea, but the official family should not leave Bianjing City, let alone go to the soldier's house." ”

Kou Ji stared at Lu Yijian and said, "The official family rushed to Zhending Mansion to boost morale. You are a person who has supervised the army and been on the battlefield, you should understand. As far as the more soldiers are concerned, the more morale they have, the more certainty they will have of victory.

Our Great Song Dynasty faced the enemy on both sides this time, and neither side could be defeated.

Therefore, if you can do to win some morale, you must strive for more. ”

When Lu Yijian heard this, he fell into silence.

Wang Zeng gritted his teeth and said, "The official family can't go." There is no one to preside over the overall situation in the Northeast, and the old man can go and invite someone. ”

When Kou Ji heard this, he frowned slightly, "Does the prince want to go to the Wenchang Academy and invite Cao Gong out of the mountain?" ”

Wang Zeng nodded without hesitation and said: "During Cao Wei's enlistment, he made great achievements. He has presided over the foreign war situation of my Great Song Dynasty many times. Asking him to come forward to the northeast to preside over the overall situation should be foolproof.

In this way, the official family does not need to go to Zhending Mansion to sit down. ”

Kou Ji's brow furrowed.

The same is true for Li Zhaoliang.

Li Zhaoliang stared at Wang Zeng and said: "Uncle Cao Shi has been fighting for many years, and there are countless light and dark injuries on his body. As early as when my Great Song Dynasty sent troops to conquer Shuozhou and other places, he was already tired.

Now that all these years have passed, Uncle Cao Shishu has reached the point where he has run out of oil and dried up.

Now it's all hanging in one breath.

If he leaves Bianjing, he will definitely die. ”

Lu Yijian said in a deep voice: "Die for the official family, and die a well-deserved death." ”

Li Zhaoliang was a little annoyed, "I'm afraid that if he can't get to Zhending Mansion, he will die on the road." Do the three of them want him to follow the example of Zhe Weizhong and use corpses to town the border?

Is there no one in my big song? Do you have to force a dying man to die?

Is there no one in my big song? Do you have to let a loyal good shed his blood, and then sacrifice the corpse? ”

When Lu Yijian heard this, he closed his mouth with an ugly face.

Zhao Zhen knocked on the table and said, "Enough, I have made up my mind." Go to Zhending Mansion in person, you don't need to persuade or talk about it. ”

"Official?!"

Lu Yijian and the three of them shouted in a deep voice.

Zhao Zhen frowned, and said in a deep voice: "The three Aiqing, the hard work is high, and I respect the three in my heart." So I rarely give the three of them a look. But that doesn't mean I won't show the three of them a look.

The three Aiqing, don't force me to show you a look.

Zhen Weizhong is my Great Song Dynasty, and the corpse town is on the border, which is cited as a good story and is widely praised among the people.

But I feel ashamed.

I'm still alive, so I shouldn't let Zhongliang take the bones to help me defend the country.

This kind of thing, once it happens, I already feel ashamed of Zhongliang.

If it happens once, I won't be at ease for the rest of my life. ”

Speaking of this, Zhao Zhen slowly got up, "Even if my Great Song needs to use the corpse to go to the edge of the town, it should also use mine, not Zhongliang." ”

When Lu Yijian and the three of them heard this, they had mixed feelings in their hearts.

Kou Ji got up and shouted loudly, "The official family is Shengming! ”

Lu Yijian and the three of them glared at Kou Ji viciously.

"Neither grandparents nor grandchildren are good people!"

Lu Yijian and the three of them complained in their hearts.

The old fooled the emperor into battle, and so did the small one.

Lu Yijian glared at Kou Ji and said, "When are you going to Hexi?" ”

Lu Yijian felt that he had to send Kou Ji to Bianjing City as soon as possible.

As soon as Kou Ji left, they admonished and admonished Zhao Zhen again, and interest could change Zhao Zhen's attitude.

Kou Ji guessed Lu Yijian's thoughts, but he didn't pierce them.

In the eyes of Lu Yijian and others, it is very dangerous for Zhao Zhen to go to Zhending Mansion, because of the war in the northeast, no one is in charge of the overall situation, and if Li Zhaoliang and Wang Kai support alone, it is very likely that there will be a defeat.

But Kou Ji knew that Zhao Zhen still had a card in his hand that could be used.

Under the board is written the word "Gao Chugong".

Although Gao Chu Gong is older than Cao Wei, his body is tougher than Cao Wei.

Live another seven or eight years, it's not a problem.

With Gao Chugong presiding over the overall situation in the northeast, and Zhao Zhen in charge, it should be foolproof.

This is also the reason why Kou Ji put Chong Shiheng, Di Qing, Zhu Neng, and Chen Yaozhi all on the war in the West.

Facing Lu Yijian's question, Kou Ji smiled and said, "I may have a few days." ”

Lu Yijian glared and said, "The enemy's 800,000 army has been killed at the door, what are you waiting for?" ”

Kou Ji said with a smile: "After a while, I will go to the Privy Council, issue a transfer document to Di Qing, and order Di Qing to take the Yongxing Army to help Chong Shiheng." The Yongxing Army in Di Qing's hands, plus the Zhenxi Army in the hands of Chong Shiheng, should be able to withstand the combined forces of the Black Khan Dynasty and the Liao State for some days. ”

Lu Yijian shouted: "The old man just wants to know when you are going?" ”

Kou Ji shrugged his shoulders and said, "I don't know anything about the military, is there a difference between going early and going late?" Even if I go to the Western Regions, I won't go to Shazhou first. I'll go to Qingtang first and knock on the horns.

It's best to dispel the idea that the horns are taking advantage of the opportunity.

In this way, it will be easier for my Great Song to deal with the enemy. ”

Lu Yijian glared at Kou Ji again and did not speak again.

After the dispersal of the dynasty.

Kou Ji hurried back to the house.

After entering the mansion, he asked Lu Ming.

"When will those big cannibals come to Bianjing City?"

Lu Ming bowed down and said, "It may take another ten days." ”

Kou Ji frowned and said, "Send someone to tell them that if you can't reach Bianjing City within five days, I won't pay attention to them anymore." ”

Lu Ming agreed, and quickly went down to order someone to pass the order.

Not long ago, the news came back from Cochin that Cao used to defeat the Great Cannibal and completely conquer Cochin.

Kou Ji immediately sent someone to find out the news of the Great Cannibal.

After some verification, Kou Ji got the news that the big cannibals led by Gargamel had quietly withdrawn from Cochin and arrived in Yongzhou as early as when Cao had conquered most of it.

They left behind Ma Mu Liuke, as well as some loyal believers, to lead the soldiers and horses of Jiaozhi to fight against Cao Yong.

They hid in Yongzhou and planned a way back.

After Cochin was completely conquered by Cao, they naturally couldn't hide.

After excavating them, Kou Ji instructed Chen Yao to warn them and ordered them to go to Bianjing City.

The big cannibals, led by Gargamel, knew that they had no way to fight against Kou Ji in the Great Song Dynasty, so they could only pack up their things and rush to Bianjing City.

Kou Ji was not in a hurry to leave Beijing, just to see them.

They came out of the border between the Black Khan Dynasty and the Yuanshan Dynasty, and they also hid a strong army.

Kou Ji felt the need to take advantage of it.

In fact, in the battle of Cochin, the losses of the great cannibals were not large.

The number of troops they invested from beginning to end was only 3,000 horse-m-stayed cavalry.

In the territory of Jiaozhi, the wind and rain are used by believers who have developed from the local area of Jiaozhi.

Therefore, they only lost 3,000 horse-stayed cavalry in Jiaozhi.

During this period, they did not ask the Great Song Song to send troops and horses to cross the border.

Therefore, most of the soldiers and horses they brought from Baghdad were still quietly hidden at the junction of the Black Khan Dynasty and the Yuanshan Tribe.

Although the number of those soldiers and horses is not large, it is useful in the war of the Great Song Dynasty against the Black Khan Dynasty.

The Black Khans were essentially vassal states under the rule of the Caliphate.

Although the Black Khan had broken away from the rule of the Caliph, the Black Khan had chosen to stand on his own.

However, the Black Khan Dynasty still used the religious system to rule the people and warriors.

Moreover, the personal cavalry of the Black Khan King Yusufu is still a guest of Mamu given by Baghdad.

Gargamel is a very strong man in religion, and if he appears on the battlefield with people, he will definitely be able to influence some of the soldiers and horses of the Black Khan Dynasty.

Even if he was reluctant to meddle in the war.

Kou Ji can also persuade him to take people to the territory of the Black Khan Dynasty to stir up the wind and rain, and pull the retreat of the Black Khan King Yusufu.

Anyway, the Black Khan King Yu Sufu, in order to conquer the Uighurs of Xizhou and the Great Song Dynasty, took away millions of soldiers and horses in the country, and almost emptied ninety percent of the soldiers and horses in the territory of the Black Khan Dynasty.

Gargamel led his men to stir up the storm in the territory of the Black Khan, and there was little to no hindrance.

Gargamel needed a local mission, and he needed to control a religious-dominated country to perpetuate the incense for religion.

The Black Khan dynasty suited him definitely more than anywhere.

When he arrived in the territory of the Black Khan, he did not need to deliberately preach.

He only needed to think of a way to prove that he was superior to the people in the territory of the Black Khan.

As long as he can prove his identity, he can easily steal the authority of the Black Khan King Yu Sufu within the Black Khan Dynasty.

Regardless of whether Gargamel succeeds in stealing the power of the Black Khan King Yu Sufu within the Black Khan Dynasty, it will play an immeasurable role in the war between the Great Song Dynasty and the Black Khan Dynasty.

Once Gargamel entered the Black Khan Dynasty, he began to steal the power of the Black Khan King Yusufu.

Then the tide of the war will be reversed.

There is a fire in the backyard, can the black sweat king Yu Sufu save it?

If you don't save it, you are likely to become a fugitive king who is sent out.

Save, then Da Song is willing to let you leave the battlefield.

Da Song is pestering, and if you don't let you go, you can only watch the fire in the backyard burn more and more.
