Chapter 290: Discussing Yanyun (1)
Under house arrest Liang Shanbo's negotiation team, Huizong was in a dilemma, he really realized that it was easy to invite God and difficult to send God, he knew better than anyone else that if he let go of Liang Shanbo's negotiation team, if the word Zhao'an was mentioned in the future, he would definitely be strongly condemned by Song Jiang. Originally, Huizong was determined to let Liangshanbo establish an autonomous region, but after Tong Guan's return, Huizong felt that the autonomous region was worried. And the ministers are also turning clouds and rains, saying that it is feasible for a while, and the future is bright, and then saying that it is not feasible.
Huizong looked at them like grass on the wall, undulating with the wind, without a fixed number, and fooling him like a child. What is said that Liangshanbo is strong because he lives in a puddle, and now that he has left Shuibo, he has been disarmed into a team of 30,000 troops, so why not let him establish an autonomous region, as soon as there is a stir, the army will surround the autonomous region and uproot them.
Joke! Do you think Songjiang is a fuel-efficient lamp? Tong Aiqing said it well, let Song Jiang win the hearts of the people in the autonomous region, and the autonomous region will not be the territory of the Great Song Dynasty.
Huizong was sullen in the palace, but he heard Zhao Liangsi shouting excitedly outside the palace: "Your Majesty! Great joy! A godsend! A godsend! ”
Zhao Liangsi is now deeply trusted by Huizong, and he does not need to be notified when he enters the palace, and now he is specially responsible for investigating the situation of the Liaojin War, and is ready to recover the sixteen states of Yanyun at any time.
Zhao Liangsi's face was full of joy, bowing to Huizong, Zhao Ji let Ping and said: "What makes Zhao Aiqing so happy?" Speak up and let me share the joy! ”
Zhao Liangsi said: "Your Majesty! The form is very good, and the sixteen states of Yanyun are at your fingertips! Zhao Ji's eyes suddenly released a bright light, and he asked eagerly: "Zhao Aiqing said carefully, don't miss any side details!" ”
Zhao Liangsi said: "Now the Liao State has become the end of the strong crossbow, and it has been crippled by the Jin State. Now the five capitals of Liao have lost four capitals, and only Nanjing is left, that is, Youzhou. The better news is that the main forces of the Jin State went to the depths of the grassland to chase after the Liao Emperor Yelu Yanxi, and there was no half of the Jin army near the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, only some remnants of the Liao State were defeated and defended. ”
After hearing this, Zhao Ji was excited like a naughty boy who caught a dragonfly in the wild, and he said excitedly: "If this is the case, God bless me Da Song." Recovering the lost territory, the first contribution of Qing! ”
"Where the duty lies, how dare the minister take credit, it really depends on His Majesty's blessings, and the country's fortune is prosperous!"
Zhao Liangsi patted his horse modestly and said: "There is more than one happy event, and what is even more beneficial to our dynasty is that there is internal strife in Liao. Yelu Yanxi's abandoned son Yelu Chun was originally the Taishou of Youzhou, but now he has a self-respecting army and establishes himself as the new emperor, with Youzhou as the capital. In this way, the Liao State, which was already in danger, was divided internally, and its strength was even thinner, which was of course a happy event for the Great Song Dynasty. ”
Zhao Ji was very happy, and after a while, he was worried again: "The Great Song Dynasty and the Jin State have an alliance first, wouldn't it be untrustworthy for our country to send troops privately?" If Jin Guo is to blame, what can he do? "E-book house
Zhao Liangsi only muttered in his heart when he heard this, you have already broken the contract, what kind of covenant are you talking about. He didn't know if the emperor had a bad memory or deliberately brought up the old things, so he could only explain with his own understanding: "The sixteen states of Yanyun are the territory of the Han people, and it is natural for the Great Song Dynasty to recover the lost land, so why bother to look at the face of the Jin Kingdom!" Moreover, the Jin people were only allowed to return the six states of the Great Song Dynasty, and the other ten states were their own, how could such a greedy nation cooperate with him! Today's land of Yanyun is a piece of unattended fat, as long as the Great Song Dynasty moves fast enough, takes the first step, and guards Yanyun with heavy troops, what can the covenant do. If the Jin people are to blame, His Majesty will blame the Jin people for breaking their promises on the grounds that the Jin State is unwilling to attack the Liao State, and will also write off the New Year's coins promised to the Jin State. In this way, the Great Song Dynasty can not only recover the lost territory, but also save hundreds of thousands of silk silks, what a cost-effective war! ”
Zhao Ji nodded with satisfaction, but he looked embarrassed and said: "I am commensurate with the brothers of the Northern Dynasties, and I have been safe and sound for hundreds of years. Just like if we start a fire with a neighbor's house, instead of helping to put out the fire, but take the opportunity to snatch his belongings, will we be held responsible? ”
Zhao Liangsi secretly scolded his mother in his heart, you can't wait to grab the Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures in your hands now, and you are still pretending to say what kind of benevolence, righteousness and morality. It seems that this emperor is really a master of retreat, he has to play official articles in everything, and his face is more important than anything else, but some things need to be torn up to do it.
However, Zhao Liangsi immediately came up with a high-sounding reason: "Your Majesty! The land of Yanyun was originally the land of the Han Dynasty, and the Great Song Dynasty took it from the voice of the whole Yanyun Han people, and it was their expectation, and the Great Song Dynasty was to raise troops to save the people, which was purely a righteous act! Moreover, the state of the Song Liao brothers, Ye Luchun dared to stand on his own feet when he committed the following crimes, which is really a great rebellion. It is also reasonable for an uncle to take care of the housework for his brother and teach a lesson to the juniors who don't know how high or low. It is reasonable to recover the sixteen states of Yanyun and the country and the family, who will point fingers and ask for self-deprecation! ”
Zhao Ji's eyebrows fluttered when he heard this, and he laughed and said: "Heaven is forgivable, but you can't live if you do your own evil." It's time for Liao to repay the debts of the Great Song Dynasty! Immediately send a decree to announce that the ruler will enter the temple to discuss the matter! Zhao Ji gloated, as if the land of Yanyun had been grasped into his hands, excited and conceited.
The ministers were all elated, and Huizong was the first emperor of the ages, and they were the famous ministers of the ages, and they all raised their hands in agreement. Wang Hao even took the initiative to ask Ying to raise money and grain, taking the money and grain spent on the Northern Expedition on himself, and promised that if the supply of money and grain was not timely, he would be willing to dismiss the official and serve the people. The rest of the people understood that this guy was preparing to pretend to be public and private, but no one said anything, and they all praised Wang Huang for his loyalty and patriotism. Then they were ready to take on an errand each, so that they could fill their pockets and earn credit from it, and they rushed to ask Huizong for help.
A cold voice suddenly came from the righteous confession: "Everyone, stop for the time being! The minister has something to say! ”
Everyone looked up and saw that it was Uncle Zhang who was speaking, and said that he also wanted to share a spoonful of soup, although he was angry, he didn't dare to say anything to blame. Zhang Shuye and Zhao Liangsi were personally ordered by the emperor to participate in the palace meeting, and to blame him was to slap His Majesty in the face.
Uncle Zhang said: "The recovery of the lost territory is gratifying, but it cannot be achieved without heavy troops." Today, the whole country will march to the north, and the country will inevitably be empty, and if there are people who are not subservient to gather people, the Beijing division will be in danger. Weichen thought that before the Northern Expedition, the matter of Liangshan Bo Zhao'an must be resolved, otherwise the fire in the backyard would be a futile effort of the Northern Expedition! ”
The ministers secretly breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that he was not here to steal the credit. After hearing this, Huizong praised: "Ji Zhong really cares about the comfort of the society, is favored and humiliated, thinks about safety and danger, and considers the problem carefully and rigorously. I hope that all of you will also proceed from the overall situation and take into account the internal and external factors that affect the outcome of the war. ”
Everyone saw the emperor's affectionate name Zhang Shuye, which showed that his status in the emperor's heart was not thin, and they all followed Huizong's words. Uncle Zhang saw that the ministers did not blame, but boasted, and his worries disappeared, and he said: "Sun Tzu said: 'Soldiers, the major affairs of the country, the place of death and life, and the way of survival, must not be ignored. 'Today's Northern Expedition of the whole country, involving a hair and moving the whole body, if there is a difference, it will affect the entire Great Song Dynasty, so we must choose a strong commander and restrain the three armies to fight together, before we can send troops to attack Liao. Otherwise, even if the soldiers are not afraid of life and death, if they fight separately, they will not form a joint force, and they can only leave regrets. The failure of the Yongxi Northern Expedition in the past is still vivid, the war failed to kill and wound hundreds of thousands, and the money, grain and rice were exhausted, which is really more than worth the loss. If Li Xian had been given the commander in chief that day and the Five Route Army had been under unified command, Western Xia would have perished. Therefore, Weichen thinks that the commander of the Northern Expedition should choose carefully! ”
As soon as this remark came out, it aroused the conjecture of everyone in the palace. Huizong secretly admired Zhang Shuye's outspokenness, he was really an open-minded and straightforward minister, and there were no ravines and ravines in the minds of other ministers, and I didn't misunderstand him. Wang Hao's heart trembled, this guy didn't come to stand up for Tong Guan, but the ministers of the ruling government worked together to drive Tong Guan out of the court, if he was allowed to make a comeback, would there be everyone's good fruit to eat? No way! Tong Guan must not be allowed to interfere in this Northern Expedition! Cai Jing was directly shocked in his heart, Uncle Zhang wanted to grab the position of commander at night! This is what he has been thinking about for a long time, and he has planned a good position for his eldest son Cai You, and he has even considered it as a general, the legendary general of the Western Army is the pioneer, and the other two fierce generals of the Western Army are Zhen Kecun and Xin Xingzong on the left and right wings, Cai You personally leads the Chinese army, and there is also a general Liu Yanqing in the Chinese army. Such a super strong lineup is more than enough to deal with the Liao State that is still breathing, and it is only a matter of time before he makes meritorious contributions, how can he let others seize it. No way! We must not tolerate someone snatching food from my Cai family's mouth. Other ministers like Li Bangyan and other ministers watched the scene coldly, waited for a while when the wind rose, and then looked for a partner to fan him and fan out his best interests.
