Zhao Zhen sat on the throne and was silent, in fact, as Yeli Yuqi said, at this time, if the party is united, it is indeed the best opportunity to carve up the Liao Dynasty that is in civil strife, but Zhao Zhen does not plan to do this, the main reason is that once this is the case, while the Great Song Dynasty gains more territory, the party members are also the same.

There was no need for the Great Song Dynasty to unite with the party to attack the Liao Dynasty, which was an unwise move that outweighed the losses, and the more important reason was that the Great Song Dynasty was preparing to attack the Western Xia, which was a war without gunpowder carefully planned by Zhao Zhen, and carried out a trade war against the Western Xia with the strong economic foundation of the Great Song Dynasty.

The ministers in the main hall are naturally quiet, and at this time, they are looking at Yeli Yu with extreme disgust, and the gentleman who takes advantage of the danger of others is disdainful! What's more, this is an orthodox dynasty for an orthodox imperial power? In the eyes of the courtiers of the Great Song Dynasty, the Liao Dynasty was indeed an orthodox dynasty, even if it was in civil strife and declined, but it was still a dynasty recognized by the world's etiquette and law.

In contrast, the establishment of the Western Xia State and Li Yuanhao's claim that the emperor was nothing more than a joke in the eyes of the Great Song courtiers, and the Great Song never recognized the orthodox imperial throne of the Western Xia, and in the official documents, it was called by the party, which means that the Great Song only recognized the party as a nation, and did not recognize the Western Xia state they established.

Zhao Zhen naturally understood the thoughts of the courtiers, and said to Ye Liyu, who was full of enthusiasm in his eyes: "My Great Song Dynasty is a dignified country, and naturally we must follow the orthodoxy of etiquette and law, the Liao Dynasty and my Great Song Dynasty are brothers' countries, and the Liao Dynasty is in civil strife, and my Great Song Dynasty borrowed the King of Daoqin, how can I change the order now?" Sending troops to carve up the Liao Dynasty? Don't you make the world laugh! ”

Yeli Yu begged to look at the high Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty in disbelief, he couldn't understand why Zhao Zhen gave up such a favorable opportunity easily, you must know that the Great Song Dynasty has been suppressed by the Liao Dynasty one after another since the founding of the country, and Zhao Zhen's grandfather Emperor Taizong failed to go on the Northern Expedition twice, and fled in an ox cart in embarrassment, have these Great Song Dynasty forgotten? !

"Your Majesty, this is a God-given opportunity, Song and Xia will definitely be able to attack the Liao Dynasty and destroy its country, and eliminate future troubles forever!"

Zhao Zhen chuckled and said: "The Liao Dynasty is already weak, and my Great Song Dynasty has taken back the land of Yanyun, under such a prosperous era, the Liao Dynasty has no majesty!" After Zhao Zhen finished speaking, his face was straight, and he looked at Ye Liyu sternly: "If it is decided today, why should my Da Song refuse the tiger at the front door and enter the wolf at the back door?" Your party broke the alliance with the Liao Dynasty, the reason for it is your party, how can my Great Song Dynasty repeat the mistakes of the past? At this point, it's still unclear?! ”

Ye Li Yuqi's face was ugly, it was obvious that the Great Song Emperor did not intend to crusade against the Liao Dynasty with the Western Xia, in his eyes, the Song people were small and prosperous, and they had no enterprising heart at all, and they wasted a God-given opportunity in vain, what a good opportunity this is! If the Great Song Dynasty sent troops to attack the Liao Dynasty Zhongjing Road from the south, then the Western Xia Dynasty could send troops to the Liao Dynasty Xijing Road!

Seeing Ye Liyu's ugly face, Zhao Zhen sneered in his heart, how could he not know what the party members were planning? Once the Great Song Dynasty used troops, it would inevitably become the main force that bore the brunt of the attack, and although the Liao Dynasty had Yelu Chongyuan to make trouble, the Liao Dynasty would inevitably be in a group when it encountered foreign invasion.

At that time, the Great Song Dynasty attacking Zhongjing Province will inevitably encounter the main force of the Liao Dynasty, and the party items attacking from the west will quickly plunder the land and population of the Liao Dynasty because of the Great Song Dynasty, how can Zhao Zhen let Li Yuanhao succeed? Does this Li Yuanhao treat himself as a three-year-old child?

Ye Liyu retreated unconvinced, in his opinion, the Manchu Dynasty of the Great Song Dynasty, including the emperor on the throne, was a coward who was a little rich and peaceful, and it was really the best time to carve up the Liao Dynasty in front of him, but he actually stopped? It is no wonder that the Song people did not move forward after seizing the land of the two states of Great Xia.

How can such a country be the opponent of Great Xia, Your Majesty is right, the Song people do not conspire with each other, if they should be good, if they should not be good, if they should not have much to do with it, Great Xia will take the land and people from the Liao Dynasty by himself, and it will definitely make the Great Song Dynasty look good!

All the courtiers watched Ye Li Yu beg to leave with disdain, are the party members stupid? Who wouldn't have seen such an obvious calculation? It is a wise move for the officials to veto. , to respond to all changes with the same is what the Great Song Dynasty should do now.

Daqing Hall regained silence, Zhao Zhen stood up from the throne and walked down the royal street, Li Yuanhao sent envoys to unite with the Great Song Dynasty to divide the Liao Dynasty, not only hoping to join forces with the Great Song Dynasty to destroy the Liao, but to express a kind of goodwill, the fundamental purpose of which is to hope to form an alliance with the Great Song Dynasty or non-aggression.

"You have all seen it, the party members are ready to move! They all talk about their own opinions, and I listen to them. ”

The officials narrowed the distance with themselves, and the courtiers were naturally happy in their hearts, and they expressed their opinions in their own opinions, and Ding Wei, as the old minister of the third division, still insisted on his original point of view: "Your Majesty, no matter how the party members act at this time, my Great Song should focus on the original plan, and should not be distracted by Li Yuanhao's calculations." ”

Xia Zhu said with some hesitation: "If the party wants to march eastward and wave troops to the Liao Dynasty, is it beneficial for me to watch the fire from across the river of the Great Song Dynasty?" ”

Pang Ji frowned slightly on the side and said, "Xia is not good at participating in politics!" What's wrong with watching the fire from across the shore? The two tigers will fight for one injury, which is beneficial and harmless to my Great Song Dynasty, if my Great Song Dynasty mixes in, wouldn't it be necessary to pay something to get benefits? ”

Zhao Zhen nodded slightly, worthy of being a serious Pang nationality, and pointed out the key point in one sentence, as long as the Great Song Dynasty sent troops, it would pay a high cost, after all, the army of the Great Song Dynasty was no longer like the original, with the advanced equipment, the improvement of the quality of soldiers, and the cost of using soldiers became higher and higher.

If the Great Song Dynasty does not move, there will definitely be losses between the party and the Liao Dynasty, and this kind of loss is beneficial to the Great Song Dynasty.

Yan Shu was more concerned about etiquette and law, and proposed that the Great Song Dynasty and reason and law should not take advantage of the danger of people to attack the Liao Dynasty, so as not to show jokes to the people of the world, and Di Qing suggested that the city defense of Yanyun should be consolidated, and at the same time, military horses should be raised in Fengsheng Prefecture and a city fortress should be built.

It seems that in addition to Xia Zhu, the vast majority of the courtiers support the policy of watching the fire from the other side, Zhao Zhen naturally will not object, the current Great Song Dynasty needs to recuperate, after the Northern Expedition, the army of the Great Song Dynasty should also slow down, and the use of troops not only has a huge consumption of national strength, but also makes the army tired, this exhaustion is not physical but mental.

Although the war is over, the benefits and traumas brought by the war will take a long time to recover, although the Great Song Dynasty won the final victory, but the process is much longer, including the development of the land of Yanyun, the connection between the Great Song Dynasty and Yanyun, and the land of Yanyun to become the national gate of the Great Song Dynasty, etc., it will take time.
