Goryeo Kaijing was besieged, seeing that Goryeo was about to fall into the situation of annihilation, but in the end Zhao Zhen still decided to send the navy to Goryeo, not to rescue, in fact, because of the delay of the news, the news of Kaijing was besieged to the capital, Zhao Zhen made a decision to notify the navy to send troops, this back and forth will take several months, God knows if Kaijing can still hold?

However, even if Goryeo is destroyed, it is impossible for all the Goryeo people to die, and the purpose of Zhao Zhen's sending the navy is to collect some Goryeo people, mainly some fleeing Goryeo nobles, as long as these people are in hand, they can organize the resistance of the Goryeo people, and if the Liao army really stays in Goryeo and does not leave, then let them taste the feeling of being caught in the people's ocean.

At the same time as the Liao army attacked Goryeo, there was finally news from the party side, to be precise, it should be Gaochang Huifu's side that finally had news, but this was not good news, because Gaochang's envoys came to ask for help from the Great Song Dynasty.

"Your Majesty, the party has entered our country for no reason, burned my city, killed my people, and caused the entire Gaochang to mourn all over the country, and please send reinforcements to save my Gaochang!" On the top of the main hall, the envoys of Gaochang denounced the cruelty of the party members, and even tears fell in the end.

Li Zhang was also in the hall at this time, looking at the Gaochang envoy and couldn't help sighing, the envoy in front of him is said to be the crown prince of Gaochang, just three months ago, that is, a month after the Great Song Dynasty found out that Li Yuanhao gave up Zhenzhou, the party army suddenly entered the territory of Gaochang, burning, killing and looting all kinds of evil, in just a few days to break through several Gaochang cities, and surrounded the capital of Gaochang.

In the face of this danger of destroying the country, King Gaochang also immediately sent his son to the Great Song Dynasty for help, but he should also know that the distance between the Great Song Dynasty and Gaochang is too far, and it is almost impossible to send an army to go, and even if the Great Song Dynasty really sends an army, when the Great Song Dynasty arrives, I am afraid that Gaochang has already perished, so he sent his crown prince, so that even if Gaochang dies, he can leave a bloodline, and maybe there will be a chance to rebuild Gaochang in the future.

Zhao Zhen also took Gao Chang's letter of state at this time, read it carefully at the moment, and then handed it to Li Zhang next to him before he spoke: "I am also very heartbroken by what happened to Gao Chang, but this matter is not something that I can decide with a word, you came from afar, I arranged for someone to take you to the post house to rest first, and then make a decision after I discuss it with all the Aiqing!" ”

Zhao Zhen's words were very tactful, and he did not agree or refuse, but everyone present knew that it was simply unrealistic to let the Great Song Dynasty send troops to a place so far away from Gaochang Huifu, so he would definitely refuse in the end, but this kind of refusal could not be said by Zhao Zhen, and then he would definitely send a minister to inform the crown prince of Gaochang.

Hearing Zhao Zhen's answer, the young crown prince also showed a gloomy expression, but he also knew that it was good that Da Song did not directly refuse, so he could only leave with the people arranged by Zhao Zhen.

After Gaochang's envoy left, Zhao Zhen looked at the ministers in the palace with a solemn face and said, "What do you think?" ”

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that it will definitely not work to send troops, but in addition to sending troops, there are other ways to curb the expansion of the party in the Western Regions!" At this time, I saw Han Qi being the first to stand up and say.

"Oh? What's the solution? Zhao Zhen sat up straight and asked.

"Your Majesty, there are many small countries in the Western Regions, and they have paid tribute to us before, but now that the party is invading, Your Majesty can send envoys to contact these small countries, if they can unite and send troops, even if they can't defeat the party, it can greatly consume the strength of the party!" Han Qi said very confidently at the moment.

"This plan is feasible, in the past, there were 36 cavalry to pacify the Western Regions, and the countries in the Western Regions were not very friendly to the Han Dynasty at that time, but now my Great Song Dynasty is friendly with the countries of the Western Regions, as long as the energy saving is said to move other countries, it may not be impossible for them to jointly send troops!" At this time, someone immediately spoke in agreement.

Zhao Zhen was also quite moved when he heard this, but he still turned his head to look at Li Zhang, who was contemplative next to him, and asked, "What do you think, Dingbei Hou?" ”

Li Zhang also raised his head at this time and replied: "It's a good idea to send envoys, but I'm worried that the countries in the Western Regions are not easy to move, after all, they also have a lot of contradictions with each other, and I think the party's goal may not be Gaochang!" When Li Zhang said the end, he also showed a solemn expression on his face.

"Not Gao Chang?" Zhao Zhen and the ministers in the hall also showed surprised expressions when they heard this.

"Yes, when the Gaochang envoys left Gaochang, the party only surrounded their national capital, but there was no siege yet, and they have been away for so long, no one knows what the party will do next, and the most important thing is that Gaochang Huifu is still too close to us, especially since our army has recovered the original Yumen Pass, and as long as it is out of the pass, and then west is Gaochang Huifu, if the party really occupies Gaochang, then it will not take a few years, he will have to face our army of the Great Song Dynasty again!" Li Zhang immediately told his guess.

"This ......" Zhao Zhen also showed a contemplative expression when he heard Li Zhang's analysis, the front was just Li Zhang's speculation, but the back was based on the analysis of facts, the reason why Li Yuanhao gave up Zhenzhou was that he refused to carry it head-on with the Great Song Dynasty, so he and Li Zhang had concluded long ago that Li Yuanhao would definitely run far away, but now the other party was unexpectedly attacking Gaochang, which was indeed too close to the Great Song Dynasty.

"Then, according to the opinion of the Beihou, why did the party attack Gaochang?" Han Qi also pondered for a moment at this time and asked again, since Li Yuanhao chose to flee, he must try his best to preserve his strength, after all, the party item is now a source of water, and the consumption of strength is a little less, so it is really not a wise move for him to suddenly attack the party item now.

"I don't know, maybe Li Yuanhao is to demonstrate to the countries of the Western Regions, maybe Li Yuanhao is short of food supplies, and Gaochang has always been rich, plus Gaochang has not had a major war for many years, and the army has already slackened, and the army naturally has no power to resist in the face of the party's army, so it is entirely possible for the party to feed the war with war, and expand their strength in the war!" Li Zhang shook his head at first, and then gave himself several guesses, after all, he was not Li Yuanhao, no matter how much he substituted, it was difficult to really guess the intention of the other party's every step.

Hearing Li Zhang's words, Zhao Zhen, Han Qi and the others also showed contemplative expressions, since Li Yuanhao gave up Zhenzhou, his actions have been beyond everyone's expectations, and now he suddenly attacked Gaochang, no one knows what his next step is?
