Chapter 910: The Unlucky Western Xia Is Already Overstretched (First Update)

Chapter 910

Obviously he was about to be pierced in the heart, but he felt that there was no loophole in his words, and the old driver swept his eyes around for help.

However, all the colleagues can only look at themselves with an expression of "young man, you ask for more blessings" at the moment, and the mouths of one or two are like horses chewing, and they are strict.

"If Your Majesty doesn't dislike Weichen's recklessness, the minister, he is naturally willing to do his best for His Majesty......" De, since there is no one to help him, this old driver can only save himself now.

"Okay, then I'm going to ask the Qing family for advice, what do you mean by the ancestral law? I can't think of it for a while, since the Qing family mentioned it, then it must be known, and I bother you to tell me. ”

“…… The ancestral law mentioned by Fang Cai Weichen naturally refers to the gift of the year's coins agreed upon by Emperor Zhenzong in the "Yuanyuan Alliance" with the Liao State. ”

"Oh? It turns out that the Qing family refers to this, so what does it have to do with Emperor Renzong? "Zhao Xu, the son of heaven, is like an ignorant and studious curious baby, constantly asking.

The minister could only bite the bullet and continue to explain. "My Great Song Dynasty and the Western Xia Dynasty have carried out the New Year's gift to the Western Xia through the 'Qingli Peace Conference'."

"I see, then, do you think the Qing family is doing the right thing for the two sons of heaven Zhenzong and Renzong, or is it the right thing for the two emperor ancestors of Taizu and Taizong?"

Next, Zhao Xu's seemingly fluttering words directly made the minister freeze on the spot.

Not only him, but many civil and military officers present, no one dared to squeak at this moment, looking at each other, and had no idea, Zhao Xu would actually choose such an example to make the courtiers speechless.

But don't say it, if you want to find faults, you can't find fault with this Great Song Emperor, why, Zhenzong and Renzong brought peace to the Great Song Dynasty.

However, without Taizu, where did the two emperors of Taizong come from today's Great Song Dynasty? But at the time of these two, where is there any Tanyuan Alliance, Qingli Peace Conference?

Who would dare to come out and pick up this stubble? No one dares, no one dares to ......

Rao is an old driver like Liu Zhi who has experienced several generations of emperors, and now he is like a mud carved wooden tire, and he doesn't dare to put a fart, he really doesn't dare to put it, no matter how he puts it, it's wrong.

The minister froze in place, silent for a long time, and at this moment, he was begging Heaven to give him a hole in the ground, so he quietly got into it, and then copied a shovel and buried himself in it, so as not to continue to stay here and be embarrassed.

Fortunately, Zhao Xu, the son of heaven, seemed to feel that he had had enough, or felt that it was not interesting to tease such a defeated general again, so his head turned and fell on the body of the privy deputy envoy Zhang Yu.

"Zhang Qingjia, you have been in Shaanxi Road for more than 20 years, and now you are serving in the Privy Council, you should know the most about the affairs of the northwest, according to your opinion, what should you do?"

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that since the Liao State has increased its troops again, it proves one thing, the previous victories of my Great Song Dynasty in the northwest have made the Liao State unable to sit still......"

"They must strengthen their forces on the Shaanxi Road, otherwise, it is not enough to suppress the forces of our Great Song Dynasty in the three states north of the Shaanxi Road.

In addition, presumably, the originally confident emperor of the Liao State is now very angry that the Liaoxia coalition army's offensive is so sluggish, and for more than a month, not a single city has been built, so this increase in troops is also to achieve a victory that will make the world look sideways, so as to show that the Liao State is still a powerful country, so as to shock the world. ”

Zhang Yu's analysis made Zhao Xu bow his head again and again, what he said was indeed very reasonable, from another angle, if he was the Son of Heaven of Liao, he originally sent hundreds of thousands of troops, and he was full of confidence to go to the younger brother around him to find a place.

As a result, he kicked over, and he couldn't even kick open the door of the enemy's house, but broke his toe, and the little brother was drenched in feces and urine thrown from behind the door.

At this time, there is still a group of melon-eating people who are watching the play with relish. At such a time, as a big man, if he doesn't do something, he just leads his little brother to limp and retreat.

Then, it will inevitably become the object of ridicule of the masses who eat melons, and the younger brother will definitely have different ambitions. Therefore, whether it is for the sake of face or to get back to the field, even if the emperor of Liao State is hard-headed, he must deploy troops and continue to fight to the end.

With Zhang Yan's words, several ministers stood up and advocated reinforcements, although most of the important ministers did not think so, but at this time, it was not easy to oppose it.

The Son of Heaven issued an edict to dispatch 80,000 forbidden troops to Shaanxi Road for reinforcements, and in addition, to order the armies in the south of Shaanxi Road to speed up the speed of northern reinforcement, of course, do not remind Su Dongpo and Wang Yang and others.

Once Liaoxia's reinforcements arrive, I am afraid that it will be another big battle that will take a long time. But then again, the war has been fought from last year to this summer, and now it seems that it will continue to be fought without stopping.

The Liao State and the Great Song Dynasty, with their strong family foundations, can still support it, but the unlucky Western Xia is already a little stretched.

Western Xia was not wealthy, it was a country that lived on years of war and plunder, precisely because it did not need too many production personnel, only needed to plunder the surrounding area, and could always obtain enough living materials.

In this way, with a population of three or four million, more than 300,000 troops were fed, but now, the army has suffered heavy losses and lost a lot of land, which has led to the lack of means of livelihood in Western Xia.

And coupled with the previous time when Zhi Keshi went to the hinterland of Xingqing Mansion to make trouble, until now, Xixia has not been able to ease up.

Now, both the east and the west need to face the pressure of the Song army, and almost all the young and strong people in the Western Xia have gone to the battlefield, and now, even grazing and farming, they can only rely on women and children, the old and weak.

It is expected that this year's harvest in Western Xia will be nearly halved compared with previous years. Before, the burning of Xingqing Cang had already made Xixia feel heavy pressure.

And now, after the news of Liao's increase in troops again, the Western Xia monarchs and ministers breathed a sigh of relief, but their faces looked even more ugly......

Although the Liao State did not lose many soldiers and horses in the defeat of Youzhou, this move of the Song State completely angered the Liao Emperor.

angered the Son of Heaven, the largest country in the world, that was not a joke, the Son of Heaven of the Liao State was angry, and the 200,000 troops were going to enter the land of the three states from Nanjing Road.

As a result, the Liaoxia coalition army swelled sharply to 500,000, far exceeding the number of the entire army of Western Xia, and at the same time, it also far exceeded the ability of the Western Xia, which has suffered heavy losses.

"If the 200,000 troops arrive, I'm afraid that there will be no way to support such an army at all, because the loss of transporting grain and grass alone is an incalculable astronomical amount."
