"Baldness order, don't wear clothes, Li Yuanhao's ambition finally can't help but be exposed!" Li Zhang looked at a piece of information sent by Cao Mata in the northwest, and couldn't help but say in a deep voice at the moment.

Li Yuanhao attacked his younger brother Li Chengyu last time, and he was about to destroy Li Chengyu, but the rear was attacked by the Great Song Dynasty and had to retreat, which allowed Li Chengyu to escape, but he didn't be honest for too long, and this time he actually began to rectify and govern the party's internal affairs, such as this baldness order and other clothes.

The so-called baldness, in fact, is to be different from the Han hairstyle, so Li Yuanhao shaved his hair into the traditional hairstyle of the party members, and ordered all the people in the party, as well as the people of all ethnic groups under his control, all to be shaved according to his hairstyle, if someone does not shave within three days, it is the crime of killing the head, it can be said that the later Manchu Qing Dynasty did not keep his head without hair was learned from Li Yuanhao.

In addition to the hairstyle, Li Yuanhao also made regulations on the clothing of the people under his rule, such as civil officials wearing "heads, boots, wats, and purple clothes", and military generals were more detailed, including gold threaded cloud crowns, silver threaded crowns, black lacquer crowns, purple clothes, gold-coated silver belts, hanging butterflies, wearing knotted cones, short knives, bows and arrows, horses riding salamander skin saddles, hanging red tassels, and playing cymbals, and civilian clothes are purple soapy embroidery plates, ball flowers, swirls, belts, etc., while ordinary people can only wear blue and green clothes, so as to distinguish between high and low.

These reforms seem to have nothing to do with outsiders, but in fact, Li Yuanhao's actions have only one purpose, that is, to de-sinicize, increase the difference between party members and Han people, and enhance the identity of party members, and his purpose in doing this is also obvious, that is, to prepare for the establishment of the country and the emperor in the future.

"Just a party item, do they really dare to divide the land with our Great Song Dynasty?" Zhao Zhen also asked with some surprise at this time, he had heard Li Yuanzhang mention Li Yuanhao's matter more than once, and Li Zhang had concluded that the party project would definitely become a major disaster in the northwest many years ago, and now it seems that Li Zhang's prophecy is being fulfilled step by step.

"Why don't you dare, if it weren't for the old general Cao's battle that knocked out the courage of the party members, I'm afraid that now Li Yuanhao has already been proclaimed emperor, and now the reason why he doesn't dare to come openly is that he is still worried about our troops in the northwest, but if he can win one or two battles, and unite the hearts of the army and the people, then the establishment of the country and the emperor will also be a matter of pushing the boat!" Li Zhang said a little helplessly in the end.

Liu E is indeed quite talented in governing the country, but he is a little conservative in diplomacy, and it can even be said to be short-sighted, such as sitting back and watching the party members recover their strength little by little, if it were not for Lu Yijian's suggestion, I am afraid that Li Yuanhao would have to destroy Li Chengyu, so as to completely unify the party, and then the other party will only be the emperor faster.

"So what now?" Zhao Zhen was also a little at a loss at this time, after all, he had just been in power, and it was the first time he had encountered such a big thing, in case the party really rebelled, how should the Great Song Dynasty deal with it then? None of these Zhao Zhen had a definite idea in his heart.

"Hit! It must be fought, and the party must be destroyed in a fight, and they will not be given any chance of resurrection! Li Zhang said very forcefully at this time, he had long wanted to destroy the party, but unfortunately he was young before, and Liu E would not listen to him.

"Really...... Really want to fight? Zhao Zhen still hesitated when he heard Li Zhang's words, because the education he received since he was a child is a soldier, a major matter of the country, and it is related to the life and death of the country, so he has to be cautious.

"Your Majesty, although violence is not omnipotent, it can solve more than ninety percent of the things in this world, especially for countries and countries, benevolence, righteousness and morality are useless, only a big fist is the truth, now our Great Song Dynasty is not short of food or people, what is there to dare to fight against a single party?" Li Zhang was full of confidence at this time.

Fighting a war is nothing more than fighting money and food, with the financial and material resources of the Great Song Dynasty, as long as you are not stupid, you should never lose to the party, but in history, the Great Song Dynasty lost, and there is only one reason, that is, there are problems within the Great Song Dynasty, the most important of which is to use the military to control the military, and the hands and feet of the generals are all tied, so that the army of the Great Song Dynasty cannot exert its own strength at all.

For example, Li Yuanhao's three victories over the Great Song Dynasty, the Battle of Sanchuankou was Li Yuanhao's fake peace talks, which paralyzed Fan Yong, the governor of Yanzhou, and made the Yanzhou area completely relax its vigilance against the party, and later Li Yuanhao attacked the Great Song Dynasty, and the generals Liu Ping and Shi Yuansun led troops to support, even if the enemy was outnumbered, it still brought heavy casualties to the party members, but unfortunately it was still because of the omissions in the early stage and the whole army was wiped out.

As for the more tragic battle of Haoshuichuan in the back, it was actually presided over by the three civil officials Xia Zhu, Han Qi and Fan Zhongyan, no matter how talented they were, but they specialized in the arts, and the generals couldn't exert their abilities at all under their control, let alone win the battle.

Hearing Li Zhang's confident words, Zhao Zhen seemed to feel a little confident, but after all, he had just become pro-government, and he was still a little hesitant at this time, so Li Zhang suggested again: "If Your Majesty is not at ease, you can summon General Cao and others to the palace to ask, they know the situation in the army and the northwest best, and they should give Your Majesty a pertinent suggestion!" ”

Zhao Zhen also felt justified when he heard Li Zhang's words, especially Cao Wei, who had been guarding in the northwest for many years, even now, when all ethnic groups outside the northwest mentioned Cao Wei, they were all in awe, which was the prestige that Cao Wei played back then.

Thinking of this, Zhao Zhen also immediately issued an order to summon Cao Wei and several other veterans in the army to enter the palace, in addition to Lu Yijian and Xue Kui and others, and soon these gathered in the Vertical Arch Palace, but when Lu Yijian and others saw Cao Wei and these veterans, they all showed a somewhat solemn look.

"I don't know what His Majesty summoned his ministers and others?" Lu Yijian was the first to step forward and ask at this time, in addition to being busy with government affairs recently, they were also busy with Liu E's funeral at other times, so they were almost too busy to see people.

"Lu Xiang, take a look, this is the twist that the northwest just sent!" Zhao Zhen handed over the letter about Li Yuanhao and said, this note was written by Cao Mata, and then sent to him through the Privy Council, of course, Li Zhang also had a letter from Cao Yu, which was not suitable for taking out now.

Lu Yijian opened the fold and looked at it, and then handed it to Xue Kui and Zhang Qi and others, but when the fold finally reached Li Zhang's hands, he sent the fold to Cao Wei and others, and waited until these veterans read it before taking it back, and this move also attracted the attention of Lu Yijian and others again.

"Your Majesty, the ministers have seen this performance, the strength of the party has recovered very quickly in recent years, and Li Yuanhao is not willing to surrender, so he often makes some provocative moves, and the ministers dare not hide it, so they are sent to the palace to ask Your Majesty to take a look!" I saw that the privy envoy Zhang Qi was the first to step forward at this time.

Zhang Qi is Liu E's confidant, and he is also the person who dedicated Liu E to Zhao Heng back then, it can be said that if there was no Zhang Qi, Liu E might just be an ordinary singer, and Liu E also attached great importance to Zhang Qi after taking power, and promoted his official position many times, and now he is in charge of the Privy Council, and his status is only below Lu Yijian, and even Xue Kui, the third envoy, is below him.

"The party item is indeed a major border trouble in the northwest, and now Li Yuanhao ordered his subordinates to be bald and easy to obey, obviously there is a heart of disobedience, and the minister feels that the defense of the northwest should be strengthened, and Li Yuanhao must not be allowed to find an opportunity to take advantage of!" I saw that Xue Kui also stepped forward and said at this time.

As soon as Xue Kui's words came out, several other ministers also nodded, in fact, Xue Kui's words also represent the opinions of most people in the DPRK, these ministers said that if they are good, they are more than successful, and if they are not good, they are not enterprising, of course, this cannot be said that they are wrong, after all, for a country as big as the Great Song Dynasty, stability is far more important than everything.

"Is it just a matter of fortification?" Zhao Zhen also frowned when he heard this, this is very different from Li Zhang's previous suggestion, although he felt that it was a bit risky to take the initiative to attack before, it did not mean that he agreed with this conservative attitude.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that he can send troops to the party, just like when General Cao Lao fought against Li Jiqian, a battle can fight for several years of peace, if the party can be destroyed, then there will be no worries about war in the northwest!" Li Zhang stepped forward at this time to express his opinion again, and then looked at Cao Wei and the others next to him, which was actually a starting point for these veterans, lest they have scruples and dare not tell the truth.

Sure enough, seeing Li Zhang's suggestion to take the initiative to send troops, Cao Wei was also the first to speak at this time: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that Li Duwei's suggestion is feasible, the party has always been ambitious, if they are not completely destroyed, they will definitely not be able to stop their ambition to covet the northwest, and now our Great Song Dynasty is not short of money and food, let alone soldiers, as long as the preparation is sufficient, we will be able to fight in the northwest!" ”

As soon as Cao Wei's words came out, several other veterans also spoke out in agreement, these veterans may not be as good as Cao Wei in terms of combat record and fame, but their vision is not bad, especially most of them have been in the Northwest Army, naturally know the threat of the party to the northwest, the court was unwilling to ruthlessly destroy the party, and now the party has become the climate, if you don't do it, the cavalry of the party may be killed in the Great Song Dynasty in the future, rather than waiting for the enemy to kill, it is better to send troops directly and burn the war to the land of the party.

Of course, veterans like Cao Wei also have some selfish intentions, the most important thing is that where do generals get their exploits if they don't fight? How can you be promoted without military achievements? Most of the sons and nephews of their gang are serving in the army, and some of them have graduated from martial arts and gone to the army, and now they are waiting for the opportunity to make contributions.

However, as soon as these veterans opened their mouths, they were fiercely opposed by Xue Kui and other conservative ministers, in fact, like this kind of military affairs, Cao Wei and these generals are not qualified to participate, so this time Zhao Zhen called Cao Wei and others, which has caused Xue Kui and others to be dissatisfied, and now the two sides disagree, which makes this dissatisfaction expand again.

"Don't make any noise!" At this time, Zhao Zhen suddenly interrupted the quarrel between Xue Kui and Cao Wei and the others, and then he looked at Lu Yijian, who had been silent, and then asked again, "I don't know what Lu Xiang thinks?" ”
