Han Qi has gone through three dynasties, and in the eyes of many people, he is the existence of the Great Song Dynasty Dinghai God Needle, in fact, Han Qi's great deeds over the years are indeed the same.

Resist the Western Xia, Qingli New Deal, govern Shu, govern Northern Xinjiang, etc., the most important thing is that because of the existence of Han Qi, the change of imperial power can be smoothly transitioned, and this alone is enough.

Therefore, although Zhao Ji is now very tired of Han Qi's prestige and position of power, he has to say that he saw that Han Qi was calm and calm, and he didn't even have a dignified look in his words, and his heart was inexplicably settled.

Zhao Ji regained his composure and asked in a deep voice: "Ladies and gentlemen, if the imperial court insists on not allowing the Liao State to ask, will the Liao army invade the south?" ”

Wang Anshi preemptively said: "After the alliance of the Yuanyuan, forty-five years have passed now, except for in the Qingli period, when the Liao people took advantage of the endless war between the Western Xia and me to send envoys to coerce me to increase the New Year's coins of the Great Song Dynasty, I have never used swords. ”

Han Qi shook his head and said: "Never using a sword soldier does not prove that the Liao people will not send troops south this time, so the preparations that should be made still have to be made." ”

Wang Anshi frowned and pondered for a while, thinking that what Han Qi said was reasonable, but he was too naïve, so he said: "Your Majesty, what Han Xiang said is reasonable, it is the ministers who take it for granted, and the heart of the tiger and wolf of the Liao State must not be guarded against." ”

As soon as Han Qi and Wang Anshi said this, Zhao Ji's brows frowned tightly, but he was afraid of being looked down upon by the courtiers, so he tried his best to hide the panic in his heart.

At this time, the privy envoy Lu Gongbi said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the key at the moment is whether the army led by Han Jiang in the northwest can defeat the western thieves, otherwise if the war starts on both sides, the consequences will be unimaginable, and the Liao people also see our scruples, so they are so arrogant." ”

Wen Yanbo, who had not spoken, also said: "The minister thinks that as long as there is a big victory on Han Qi's side during the negotiation between the Liao envoy and our dynasty, and the western thief is driven out of the Meridian Road, the Liao people can be tougher." ”

Speaking of this, Wen Yanbo paused for a moment, and then said: "So the reason for the Liao people's attack this time is that Han Jiang in the northwest provoked a full-scale war with the Western Thieves, and if Han Jiang can't defeat the Western Thieves during the negotiation of the Liao envoys, it will be difficult to atone for his crimes." ”

Wang Anshi secretly hated in his heart, Wen Yanbo's words seemed reasonable, but in fact, he wanted to take the opportunity to hit his sworn enemy Han Jiang, bury a big hole in advance, and narrow the time frame for Han Jiang to succeed.

If Han Jiang can't defeat the Western Thief quickly, even if he wins the battle later, he will not have a great achievement, or if the great achievement has shrunk too much, not to mention, even the great merit of the Black Luo Department in the early stage will be lost to become the second Zhe clan and control the Meridian Dao.

Wen Yanbo's move is not ruthless, and it is difficult to refute, because the Liao people's attack is indeed related to the affairs of the northwest.

"Now that all the grain, grass and ordnance have been sent to the northwest, Han Jiang is also a person who knows the soldiers, and the Western Army is also a good soldier, so it will not be defeated by the hands of the Western Thieves, how long do you think it will take to defeat the Western Thieves and drive them out of the Meridian Road." At this time, Zhao Ji's mind was full of the possibility of the Liao army going south, but he ignored the party strife and intrigue between several important ministers.

Everyone was speechless for a while, and Wen Yanbo said again: "Your Majesty, let's not mention whether the Western Army is good at fighting for the time being, in the past, the food, grass and ordnance of the battle with the Western Thieves were all prepared, but it is not that there are more defeats and fewer victories. ”

Zhao Ji's face suddenly changed slightly, and he lost his voice: "Could it be that the northwest may still lose to the western thief, then the Liao people will definitely not let go of this opportunity, the army is difficult, I am ......... the Song Dynasty."

Wang Anshi saw that Zhao Ji was panicked again, and immediately became angry, and shouted: "Your Majesty, in the past, it was true that there were more defeats and fewer victories with the Western Thieves, but how long has it been since the last Great Shuncheng Victory, and Your Majesty can not have such confidence in the Western Army." ”

Every time Wang Anshi looked like this, Zhao Ji didn't dare to look at Wang Anshi, looked at the privy envoy Lu Gongbi, and asked, "Lu Aiqing, is there any military situation in the northwest recently?" ”

Lu Gongbi hurriedly said: "Back to Your Majesty, except for the last grain and grass, there has been no new military situation in the Northwest War recently. ”

Zhao Ji's expression was still solemn, and he was not sure that Northwest Han Jiang would definitely be able to defeat the Western Thief, so he felt uneasy.

Han Qi sighed secretly and said, "Your Majesty, Zhang Bin participated in and even led the victory of Dashun City throughout the whole process, and this time Han Jiang's plot against the Black Luo Department and the Meridian Dao is related to him, why don't Your Majesty ask him." ”

When Zhao Ji heard this, Zhang Bin's deep gaze appeared in his mind, and his eyes suddenly lit up, and he was about to issue an order to summon Zhang Bin into the palace, but Wen Yanbo preemptively said: "Your Majesty, how can such a military event be planned by everyone, and how can you ask the right questions with your subordinates." ”

Zhao Ji frowned, and he didn't know what to say for a while, because according to convention, such important military matters related to the life and death of the Great Song Dynasty could be discussed by the prime ministers of the two governments. Even the six Shangshu and the three envoys Wu Chong did not come today.

Wang Anshi said suddenly: "Your Majesty, such a major matter related to the survival of the society, how can you stick to the rules, the minister thinks that Zhang Bin should be summoned into the palace immediately to ask the right question." ”

With Wang Anshi's support, Zhao Ji no longer paid attention to Wen Yanbo's old stubbornness, and immediately ordered: "Li Shun quickly sent someone out of the palace, and asked Zhang Bin to enter the palace immediately." ”

………

In the military office of the Yamen Division of the Pacification Division, Zhang Bin's desk was full of hundreds of military intelligence reports, and while looking at them carefully, he was still writing and drawing on the empty paper next to him.

Early this morning, he came to the pacification department and asked people to find out all the information about the Liao State and the Western Thieves in the past three months.

Research and analysis is the most basic ability for officials to engage in politics in later generations, Zhang Bin did not mention his previous position, and his level was already a first-level researcher, and he was familiar with finding, analyzing, and sorting out some useful results through massive data.

For most of the day, even breakfast and lunch were eaten in the public house, which lasted for nearly ten hours of hard work, and the first drafts of the two research reports on the Western Xia and the Liao State had been formed.

Through these two research reports, especially some of the data that Zhang Bin counted and the curves and percentage charts drawn, many things can be seen at a glance very intuitively.

Suddenly received the decree from the palace, although there was some surprise, but after Zhang Bin used a silver ingot of five taels to ask the eunuch who passed the decree what was going on, he immediately felt a sudden in his heart.

The Son of Heaven asked him to enter the palace immediately, Zhang Bin did not dare to delay, and immediately followed the eunuch into the palace.

………

………

"Zhang Aiqing, in your opinion, can the war in the northwest be won?"

Chongzheng Palace, after Zhang Bin saluted, Zhao Ji couldn't wait to ask directly.

Zhang Bin said without hesitation: "Whether it can be won, the minister does not dare to guarantee, but he knows that our army is already invincible." ”

Zhang Bin gave an answer without thinking, which made Zhao Ji frown slightly, and Wen Yanbo sneered: "Zhang Bin, military affairs are not child's play, you are now playing against the Son of Heaven and the ministers, if you talk nonsense, it is a crime to bully the king." ”
