Cao Bin looked sad and angry, and shouted into the vertical arch hall.

"Your Majesty, the minister is guilty."

Zhao Guangyi grimaced and said indifferently: "Oh? ”

Cao Bin beat his chest and said: "Chen just got the news, Yanmen Pass was a great victory, General Yang Yeyang, with 8,000 volcanic troops, resisted 100,000 Liao troops outside the country, killed 60,000 enemies, and captured Xiao Lu Li and Li Chongzhi alive. ”

Zhao Guangyi smiled coldly in his heart, but there was a look of surprise on his face, "I don't know that there is such a thing." If this is the case, Cao Aiqing, as a privy envoy, is a great achievement, what is the crime? ”

Cao Bin squeezed out his tears and shouted with tears: "The minister is guilty, the minister, as a privy envoy, discovered that the 100,000 Liao army was heading south and approaching Yanmen Pass. Because Yanmen Pass was blocked, it was difficult for the minister to find out about the matter, and he did not dare to overstep his authority to transfer troops to help. So there is only one piece of paper that clarifies the matter.

However, the minister's recital sank into the sea, but the minister failed to speak out and almost killed Zhongliang. This is the great sin of the minister, the minister has neglected his duty, and begged His Majesty to surrender the crime. ”

Cao Bin's words, on the surface, he really pleaded guilty, but secretly?

It's more like telling Zhao Guangyi that the matter of Yanmen Pass has nothing to do with me. As a privy councillor, I have not been derelict in my duties, nor have I exceeded my authority.

The corners of Zhao Guangyi's mouth twitched, he squinted at Wang Jien, and asked, "Cao Aiqing has played the story of the Liao army going south and attacking Yanmen Pass?" ”

Wang Jien was stunned and said softly: "The old slave will go down to investigate." ”

Cao Bin, as the first person in the military of the Great Song Dynasty, has detailed records of his recitals and other documents, and the imperial court has detailed records.

Wang Jien sent someone to check for a while, and there was news.

"Back to Your Majesty, there is a note about Yanmen Pass. Song Xianggong instructed that there was no messenger from Yanmen Pass who asked for help to return to Beijing, and there was no rumor. Everything was alarmist, so the twists and turns of Cao's privy envoy were dismissed. ”

Zhao Guangyi was silent for a moment, and said to Cao Bin: "There is indeed no messenger for help to return to Beijing at Yanmen Pass, and there is no urgent military intelligence for eight hundred miles. As a privy envoy, Aiqing has a keen sense of smell and is always worried about state affairs. Although he has the right to listen to the wind and play the affairs of the imperial history, the things on the performance have been confirmed to be true. I forgive Aiqing for her innocence.

As for Aiqing's dismissal by Song Qi, which caused me to almost lose my loyalty, it was Song Qi's dereliction of duty and had nothing to do with Aiqing. ”

Zhao Guangyi said with a pleasant face: "Cao Aiqing, you are my confidant, and you are loyal to state affairs. This time, Song Qi was derelict in his duties and almost caused a catastrophe, but fortunately, Yang Aiqing resisted desperately and held Yanmen Pass. I have the right to allow you to enter the palace alone today, and in the future, if there are such military affairs, I will allow you to enter the palace directly to make it clear to me, and you don't have to go through the Zhongshu Province anymore. ”

Cao Bin pretended to wipe his tears, and said, "The minister is frightened, thank Your Majesty." ”

Zhao Guangyi waved his hand and said, "Wang Jien, give Cao Aiqing a seat." ”

Cao Bin cleaned himself up all of a sudden, and then sat on the chair without any burden.

However, Gao Huaide was not treated so well, he still stood hunched.

It's not good to stand hunched.

Gao Huaide is also older, and after standing for a long time, both legs are numb.

Zhao Guangyi didn't bother to take care of him, he kept waiting, waiting.

When Gao Huaide couldn't support it, his legs began to tremble, and his sideburns began to sweat, Zhao Guangyi spoke.

"Gao Aiqing, what is the important thing for you to enter the palace this time?"

Gao Huaide still bowed down, and said tremblingly: "What the old minister wants to play is also the matter of Yanmen Pass. ”

Zhao Guangyi casually played with a jade Ruyi, and said lightly: "Let's talk about it......"

Gao Huaide said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, since Pan Renmei's death, the old minister has taken over the old department of the Pan family. Recently, there have been many old members of the Pan family, secretly colluding with each other and intending to rebel. There were also generals from Pan's old army who defected.

The old minister heard that these old Pan clans had defected to the vicinity of Yanmen Pass, so they entered the palace to ask for orders and sent troops to exterminate these rebellious people. ”

Zhao Guangyi smiled playfully: "Pan Renmei's nine clans have been punished, and the Pan clan has also been removed from the name in Bianjing City." There are still people in the army who are secretly loyal to the Pan family, it seems that our Taishi Pan is very popular in the army. ”

Knowing that Zhao Guangyi was ridiculing himself, Gao Huaide said with a solemn expression: "Pan Renmei has some prestige in the army, even if he dies, some people are grateful for his kindness and run for him." ”

Zhao Guangyi put away the smile on his face, stared at Gao Huaide and said coldly: "The old department of the Pan family, some lost dogs. Let's not mention them today, let's talk about the 100,000 Liao troops going south to Yanmen Pass.

Northwest soldiers and horses, your Gao family is in charge of six. 100,000 Liao troops went south to Yanmen Pass, didn't you Gao family find out? ”

Gao Huaide looked panicked and said, "Your Majesty, the old minister really doesn't know about this matter. It may be that the old Pan clan colluded with the Liao people to block Yanmen Pass, so the old minister's subordinates did not find out. ”

"Bang!"

Zhao Guangyi slapped the table, stood up suddenly, and shouted: "100,000 Liao troops, that's not 100,000 yellow sheep." 100,000 Liao troops attacked Yanmen Pass with open fire, and you actually told me that the defenders near me didn't know? Are you a fool? ”

Gao Huaide lowered his head and said tremblingly: "The old minister is terrified. It is true that the old minister did not receive a report from his soldiers. Perhaps it was because the old Pan clan had a large number of people, and they strictly guarded the Yanmen Pass. That's why the soldiers under Lao Chen's command didn't find out. ”

"Ridiculous!"

Zhao Guangyi shouted angrily: "In the northwest land, there are three forbidden armies of the lower four armies, and the rest of the box army and the Fan army are innumerable. All the troops add up to 600,000. Do you want to tell me that these 600,000 garrisons are all the old Pan troops? ”

Gao Huaide said guiltily: "The old minister is guilty of negligence. ”

Zhao Guangyi was furious, and roared loudly: "100,000 Liao troops went south, 8,000 volcano army Zhongliang was buried in Yanmen Pass, tens of thousands of people were buried in Yanmen Pass, and Yanmen Pass was lost several times. Before that, I, the people of the world, and the princes of the court knew nothing.

Do you want me to tell the people of the world and the princes of the Manchu Dynasty that Yanmen Pass was blocked by a group of lost dogs, which caused nearly 20,000 loyal souls to die in the hands of the enemy?

Do you want me to tell the people of the world that Yanmen Pass was blocked by a group of lost dogs, so to this day, there is not even a single soldier of reinforcements?

Do you want me to tell the people of the world that the reason why this Yanmen Pass is held is because there is a party of soldiers and horses galloping to help?

Do you want me to tell the people of the world that to this day, Yanmen Pass is still guarded by a group of party outcasts?

Do you want me to tell the people of the world that I have an army of 600,000 in the northwest, but it is not as good as an army composed of outcasts?

Do you want me to tell the people of the world that in front of my army of 600,000, a group of lost dogs easily blocked Yanmen Pass, and let 20,000 loyal people die in the hands of the enemy? ”

Zhao Guangyi stared at Gao Huaide with red eyes, and said fiercely: "You tell me, that one is reasonable." Which one will convince the people? Which one? ”

Gao Huaide didn't dare to say a word, so he could only keep his head down and remain silent.

Actually, Gao Huaide wanted to say something.

Your Majesty, there are not so many soldiers and horses controlled by the old ministers, and you are counted together with the family, the party, and the soldiers of various tribes.

However, he did not dare to say this.

Zhao Guangyi didn't mean to let him go, he continued to roar: "My army of 600,000 can't help a group of lost dogs. So what do I want with these 600,000 troops?

What is the use of me asking you to be a great general who controls the military power of one side? ”

Zhao Guangyi glared at Gao Huaide and roared, "Tell me, am I a fool?" ”

Gao Huaide made a bitter face and said, "The old minister is guilty. ”

Zhao Guangyi asked and replied: "Yanmen Pass is connected to the Great Wall, stretching for dozens of miles. You tell me that a group of lost dogs can really block Yanmen Pass? If there is no one in my army of 600,000 who has anything to do with it, I will pluck off my head and give you the pot for the night. ”

Gao Huaide hurriedly said: "The old minister is panicked. ”

Zhao Guangyi said in a cold voice: "I want to investigate this matter thoroughly, no matter who I find, I will punish the nine clans." ”

Gao Huaide said with sincere fear: "This matter really needs to be thoroughly investigated, but the army in the northwest, although it is controlled by the old ministers, but the forces of each family are intertwined, and the situation is very complicated. If Your Majesty wants to cut it off in one piece. I'm just afraid ......"

Zhao Guangyi glared and said, "What are you afraid of?" ”

Gao Huaide took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "I beg Your Majesty to forgive the old minister for his innocence, so that the old minister dares to speak." ”

Zhao Guangyi looked at him coldly and said, "I forgive you for your innocence, you can say it." ”

Gao Huaide said solemnly: "The 600,000 troops in the northwest, among which the forces are intertwined, not only the forbidden army of the four armies of our Great Song Dynasty, but also many old departments in front of the generals. Moreover, there are small tribes to which they are attached. There are also folded families, party items, and so on......

Once too much is implicated in this matter, there will be more people who have killed Jiangmen. But there is no one to deter the party ministries.

Those who are not of my race will have different hearts.

When the time comes, these people will have no deterrence and will rebel.

Moreover, some of the old generals in the army are likely to become rebels like the old Pan family.

At that time, the northwest was in chaos.

At present, Wang Xiaobo's rebellion in Sichuan has not been quelled, and if there is another disturbance in the northwest, I am afraid that it will endanger the society of the country.

Moreover, the Liao people must be unwilling to lose the battle this time. I'm sure I'll be watching you from the sidelines. ”

Is this a threat?

A fair threat?

Regardless of what Gao Huaide thought, Zhao Guangyi already saw this as a threat.

Perhaps Gao Huaide really thinks from the perspective of the country.

But for Zhao Guangyi, who has experienced the chaos of war in five dynasties and ten countries, this is a threat from the generals and the generals.

Zhao Guangyi clearly felt the pressure of the threat.

"Can't I cure the unfaithful?!!"

Zhao Guangyi almost gritted his teeth and said this.

Gao Huaide said in a deep voice: "As a military general under His Majesty's knees, Lao Chen is willing to be a pawn and help His Majesty eradicate all disloyal people." It's just that now is not the time. Compared with many generals, the Yang family ......"

Gao Huaide paused and sighed: "The eight thousand volcano army is all dead......

Zhao Guangyi immediately understood the meaning of Gao Huaide's words.

The Yang family can stand among the generals of the Great Song Dynasty, relying on the 8,000 volcano army.

Now, all the 8,000 Volcano Army have been killed and wounded.

The tiger of the Yang family has no skin and flesh, and only the tiger is left.

Compared with other full-fledged jackals, tigers and leopards, the Yang family is no longer that important.

The ministers clamored all day long that there were too many troops and that they needed to be disarmed.

In the face of such a situation, who would be willing to selflessly cut the flesh from themselves and let the Yang family stand up again?

Of course, Lao Yang can also serve in the forbidden army by virtue of his meritorious service.

However, all the power of the forbidden army was in the hands of the emperor.

If there is no military power, what is it called?

Zhao Kuangyin released the military power with a glass of wine, and said it well.

However, Zhao Kuangyin did not dare to take all the military power in Jiangmen's hands.

The so-called cup of wine released the military power is just to transfer all the elites in the hands of the major generals and organize them into the forbidden army and the twelve guards.

However, Jiangmen still controls the Xiang army and the Fan soldiers.

If the military power is really taken away from Jiangmen, then where did the 'Gao Family Army', 'Zhejia Army', 'Cao Family Army', and 'Yang Family Army' come from......

Where did those border troops who implemented the Song Dynasty and were more fierce than the forbidden army come from?

Since Zhao Kuangyin, why did other emperors of the Song Dynasty marry Jiangmen's women?

In the history of the Great Song Dynasty, it was used to defend the military. Wenchen almost hung the generals up and beat them. But if you think about it carefully, you will find that they also bully and bully Di Qing and Yue Fei, who are generals from the grassroots.

Have you ever seen them beat up the Cao family?

People from the Gao family?

If they don't have their own military power, who will fear them?

……

The Yang family, who has no military power, is more important than other generals who have military power?

The answer is obvious.

In the battle of Yanmen Pass, the Yang family has already exhausted their family foundation.

If you want to stand up again, you can only save money step by step.

Maybe three or five years, maybe ten years...... Maybe he won't be able to turn over in his life.

Many Great Song Jiangmen disappeared from everyone's field of vision so quietly.

Cao Bin wanted to stand up and say a fair word for Lao Yang, a loyal in-law, but he thought of Yang Qi's explanation in the private letter. He could only swallow the words that came to his lips raw.

Zhao Guangyi's face was pale, and his face was gloomy and could drip blood.

"I can not be connected, but I must punish the evil leaders. Otherwise, how can I explain to the people of the world? How can you be worthy of the Yanmen closing the 20,000 souls? ”

When Zhao Guangyi said this, he was already convinced.

There is no way to accept the softness, his brother's throne is not right, and his throne is also greasy.

Therefore, I don't dare to really get into trouble with the gate.

Cao Bin really couldn't stand it.

I can't stand it, they bully honest people.

He spoke up: "All the soldiers who participated in the blockade of Yanmen Pass must be killed." ”

After thinking about it carefully, he added, "If there are too many people, you can send them all to the Western Regions." Didn't the Tatars of the Western Regions ask for help from our court? Send them to the Western Regions to give them a chance to atone for their crimes. ”

Cao Bin said this beautifully.

In fact, as the soldiers of sinners, who will care about them after they are thrown into the Western Regions?

With the chaotic situation in the Western Regions, these people are estimated to die in the Western Regions.

Regarding Cao Bin's proposal, Zhao Guangyi and Gao Huaide have no opinion.

Cao Bin is Yang Ye's in-laws, and it is rare to remain silent today, crying out for Yang Ye without reason, and not clamoring to kill everyone, which is really rare.

After all, with Cao Bin's status, once it is proposed, no one dares to ignore it.

Now, with such a small request, how could Zhao Guangyi and Gao Huaide not agree?
