Ding Wei humbly bowed down and smiled: "The minister is ashamed and dare not be, it is thanks to His Majesty's blessing that the minister can come up with this kind of strategy." ”

Zhao Defang smiled even more satisfied.

He likes Ding Wei's appearance of being meritorious but not arrogant.

Even though Zhao Pu hated Ding Wei very much, he had to admit that Ding Wei was indeed very smart and incomparable.

Admiration in his heart returned to admiration in his heart, Zhao Pu still kept a straight face and poured cold water on him, "This matter is very important, you can come up with a plan to kill two birds with one stone, and others can also see through your strategy."

Judging from the old man's many years of experience as an official. The little fox of Liao, who proposed an alliance after the defeat, is far better than you.

So you must not be complacent, you need to be cautious.

Don't be calculated by others when you are calculating others. ”

mentioned the little fox in Liao, especially when Zhao Pu praised the little fox for being more powerful than Ding Wei, a trace of warm anger flashed in Ding Wei's eyes, and turned into a trace of disdain.

He still said with a smile on his face: "What Zhao Xianggong taught is that the lower officials should remember. ”

Seeing that Ding Wei was so knowledgeable, Zhao Pu rarely didn't say anything to teach him a lesson.

The three of them got together and began to lay out for the rest of the war.

Zhao Defang asked the eunuch to take a map, spread it on the dragon case, and said: "Once we start to conquer the southern country, the only one who can rush to the aid of the Liao country is Dali."

Therefore, we must send a heavy army to Dali to contain the Cao family.

Who do the two Aiqing think is suitable? ”

Zhao Pu and Ding Wei looked at the location of Dali on the map, glanced at each other, and said in unison: "Huyanzan......"

"Hahaha...... The two Aiqing really know my heart very well. ”

Zhao Defang said with a smile: "Now the only generals that can be used in my Great Song Dynasty are Hu Yanzan and Shi Shouxin. Shi Shouxin is going to attack the southern country, so the heavy task of containing Dali can only fall on Hu Yanzan. ”

Zhao Pu frowned and said in a low voice: "As far as the old minister knows, Hu Yanzan has been staying in the mansion since the defeat in Yanyun, refusing to go out, and he has always called the court sick and does not go to the court.

Who said that he would lead the troops to contain Dali? ”

Ding Wei said with a smile: "Zhao Xianggong doesn't have to worry about this matter, now Huyanzan's family members are all clasped in our hands." He can't go if he doesn't go......"

After a pause, Ding Wei laughed in a low voice: "Including his daughter who is the princess of Yan......"

"Hiss~"

When Zhao Pu heard this, he gasped, his face darkened, and he said in a deep voice: "It's not a disaster for your wife and children, how can you do this?" ”

Zhao Defang frowned and did not speak.

Ding Wei said with a smile: "As long as it can make my Great Song Dynasty stronger, the lower officials are willing to do these dirty things, and they are also willing to bear the infamy." ”

Zhao Pu still had a dark face and said in a low voice: "So you tried your best to even deceive Huyan Chijin, who was far away in Yan Kingdom, and controlled not a single person from the Huyan family?" ”

Ding Wei nodded slowly, "This is natural, otherwise how could Hu Yanzan be obedient." ”

Zhao Pu's heart shook and said: "Before you did this, you didn't think that once this happened to Yang Yansi earlier, you would be angry?" ”

Ding Wei said proudly: "Yang Yansi has a lot of spies in his hands, and he also has some ability. But compared with the two schools of Buddhism and Taoism that have accumulated for thousands of years, it is still too far behind.

With the help of Buddhism and Taoism, how could Yang Yansi find out. ”

Zhao Pu lost his voice and said: "The two families of Buddhism and Taoism are also involved? ”

As the prime minister of the empire, he didn't know about such an important thing?

Zhao Pu was a little distracted, and at the same time, a trace of vigilance rose in his heart.

Hearing Zhao Pu's question, Ding Wei glanced at Zhao Defang.

After seeing Zhao Defang nodding and benefiting, Ding Wei said with a smile: "After Yang Yansi established the Yan Kingdom, he frequently suppressed the two Buddhist and Taoist families in the Yan Kingdom. Naturally, some people were provoked.

Daomen had a disagreement because of Yang Yansi.

There is such a Taoist priest who is determined to kill Yang Yansi.

After not getting the support of Chen Tuan's old Taoist, they betrayed the Taoist sect and voted for the Liao State.

Therefore, the line of Daomen was built by Liaoguo for us. ”

"Why don't you vote for us?"

Zhao Pu asked.

Before Ding Wei could speak, Zhao Defang smiled bitterly and said: "Chen Tuan Lao Dao has an agreement with my father and the emperor, there is a Song Dynasty, and only Huashan, Laoshan Mountain, and Longhu Mountain are orthodox. So for the traitors, we can't take them in. ”

Zhao Pu frowned and said, "What about the Buddha Gate?" ”

Ding Wei answered: "Since the Buddha Gate welcomed back the Kunpeng bones, it is preparing to hold a grand water and land puja. It's a pity that their money and food have been looted by Yang Yansi.

So when we came to the door, they acquiesced and helped us block the news.

In exchange for our support for their land and water pujas. ”

Zhao Pu nodded slowly, and said with emotion: "Song and Liao, plus the two families of Buddhism and Taoism, attacked Yang Yansi together, even if Yang Yansi has three heads and six arms, it is difficult to resist.

The old man is worried about one thing now.

Since the Liao State was defeated by Yang Yansi, they have suffered heavy losses, can they recover in such a short time and organize a certain number of troops to counterattack?

The reason why our Great Song Dynasty was able to recover so quickly was that the rich businessmen in Jiangnan were almost wiped out. ”

Zhao Pu is right.

The reason why the Great Song Dynasty was able to organize troops to attack Yang Qi so quickly despite the defeat and heavy losses.

It was because the court was ruthless, using various means and various charges to kill a wave of big fat pigs.

In this way, the imperial court quickly fattened up.

But compared to the Great Song Dynasty.

The Liao country is already barren, even if you want to kill a big fat pig, it is difficult to find too much.

"This ......"

Zhao Pu raised this worry, and also woke up the complacent Zhao Defang.

Ding Wei groaned: "We don't have to worry about this matter. If the Liao State doesn't do it, we don't do it. Once the Liao State makes a move, they will contain Yang Yansi, even if they are defeated, by the time they finish fighting, we will have already taken the entire southern country.

At that time, even if Yang Yansi wants to attack my Great Song Dynasty, it will be difficult to form a general trend of encirclement between the north and the south. ”

"I hope so......"

“……”

……

Just when the three monarchs and ministers of the Song State were worried about the Liao State.

The news of Yang Qi's assassination and his dying life also spread to Liao.

Liao.

Upper capital.

Inside the Royal Palace.

A side hall.

There are only four people here.

Xiao Zhuo, Yelu Huge, Han Derang, Han Qiong.

Xiao Zhuo sat on the top, Han Qiong sat on one side, Yelu Xiuge lay on a recliner, and Han Derang sat opposite the three of them.

Xiao Zhuo held a letter in his hand, and said excitedly and sadly: "Yang Yansi was stabbed and his life was in danger. God bless me Daliao...... It's just that my poor Haijing boy ......"

Although Jeruxiu's serious injuries were healed, he broke his legs and could only collapse on the recliner.

He closed his eyes slightly, and when he heard Xiao Zhuo's words, he said quietly: "Haijing, that girl died for my Da Liao, she died well, and she won a chance for my Da Liao." I believe that the monarchs of the future generations of Da Liao will not forget her contributions. If the Queen Mother thinks of her, she might as well build a temple for her......"

"Ahem......"

Han Derang coughed and said, "The matter of Princess Haijing, we will talk about it later." The top priority is to talk about how to take the sixteen states of Yanyun. Now that Yang Yansi's life is in danger and the dragons of the Yan Kingdom are leaderless, it is a good time for us to recapture the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun. ”

Hearing this, Xiao Zuo and Brother Yelu Xiu nodded slowly.

Princess Haijing's death is only remembered a little by the people closest to her.

Sad for her, crying for her, probably can't do it.

As qualified politicians, their hearts have long been tempered as hard as iron.

Xiao Zuo looked at Han Qiong, who had been silent beside him, and said, "How is the layout?" ”

Han Qiong nodded slowly, with a dazzling light flashing in her eyes, and laughed in a low voice: "Now the border of the Yan Kingdom is like an iron wall built by Yang Yansi, and there are only two places that can be attacked.

One is the port city of Yanguo on the coast, and the other is the Dongsheng Mansion of Yanguo.

Our Liao people are good at horse warfare and are not suitable for naval warfare.

Therefore, half a year ago, I asked the Empress Dowager and Da Yue for her will, and asked Yelu to lead 100,000 soldiers and horses to the northeast of Liao to ask for a navy in neighboring countries. ”

Xiao Zhuo was stunned for a moment, and said in amazement: "You asked Yelu to lead 100,000 soldiers and horses to attack Goryeo, just to ask for a naval army?" ”

Han Qiong nodded, and shook her head again, "Yes and no...... The purpose of letting Yelu go to attack Goryeo is to borrow Goryeo's money and quickly restore the vitality of our Great Liao.

Goryeo has lived in the southeast for a long time, and has been attacked, but it has not fallen. They must have accumulated a lot of wealth, which is enough to support our Liao State through the crisis of this defeat.

I believe that with the spoils of war sent back from Yelu, the three of you will be able to see the wealth of Goryeo.

But the Goryeo navy was useless.

The only water army that can really help us is the water army of the Japanese country.

The Wa Kingdom has lived in the depths of the sea for a long time, and every Wa people have a good water nature, and their water army is also extremely strong, which is just right for us.

So when I asked Yelu to attack Goryeo again, I knocked the Wa kingdom with my hand, and plundered a lot of slaves and warships from there.

When the time comes, it will be enough for us to conquer the Yan Kingdom. ”

Xiao Zuo looked at Han Qiong with a complicated expression.

Han Qiong seemed to feel Xiao Zhuo's gaze, and replied shyly: "The daughter-in-law is in charge of her own affairs, and please don't be surprised by the Queen Mother and the Yue Yue." All...... It's also for my Liao country. ”

"Hehehe......"

A smile appeared on Yelu Huge's face, and he laughed in a low voice: "It's not weird! How can I blame you? You have done a good job, with the help of the slaves and warships of the Wa Kingdom, we will be more sure of the Yan Kingdom.

If you really want to blame, you can only blame us old things for not having the ability, not only lost the sixteen states of Yanyun, but also almost died in Shangjing.

If you hadn't stepped forward and maneuvered around it, you would have dealt a blow to the leather room army guarding the capital.

I'm afraid that now the Liao Palace has changed owners. ”

The smile on Jeruxiugo's face grew more and more ugly, as if he was laughing angrily, and it was hard to tell if he was angry or laughing.

His words were understated, but the meaning contained in his words was enough to shake the world.

Xiao Zhuo also smiled and said, "Han Aiqing, you really gave birth to a good girl." With her help, my Da Liao will not only be able to recapture the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun. In the future, my emperor will have her assistance, and he will definitely be able to win the world. ”

Han Derang said happily: "Everything is trained by the Queen Mother." ”

Han Qiong's smile was bright when she heard the compliment.

She humbly said, "You three have praised ......"

After a pause, she continued: "With the help of slaves and warships from the Wa Kingdom at sea, it will be easy for us to attack the port city. As for Dongsheng Mansion, then Yelu Xianzhen led the elite troops, bypassing Waiyunzhou, directly penetrating Dongsheng Mansion, and taking Yan Guo by surprise.

As long as these two portals are broken, the land of the Yan Kingdom will be at our disposal. ”

Brother Yelu nodded slowly, "This plan is good...... It's just that Yelu went to attack Dongsheng Mansion secretly, who is responsible for attacking Yan Kingdom from the front? And who will contain the folding family in Fuzhou?

If no one is able to contain the main force of the Yan Kingdom head-on, even if the door of the Yan Kingdom is broken, it will eventually be driven out like the last time.

The Fuzhou family is now strong and strong, and they are in-laws with the Yang family, if they rush to the aid of the Yan country.

I am afraid that Yelu will attack the soldiers and horses of Dongsheng Mansion and annihilate them. ”

Han Qiong took out a secret letter from his arms and handed it to Xiao Zhuo, and then when Xiao Zhuo read the letter, he explained: "These two things are greater than the more you don't worry, this secret letter was sent by an old opponent of Yang Yansi."

It is precisely because of him that I can guarantee that it will be foolproof for Yelu to sneak attack Dongsheng Mansion......"

As he spoke, Xiao Zhuo had already finished reading the letter, and the letter had already been handed to Yelu Huge's hand.

After reading the letter, Jeruxiugo muttered, "It turned out to be him...... He is also a masterpiece, if he hadn't met Yang Yansi, sooner or later he would have dominated the northwest.

This king thought that after he was defeated by Yang Yansi, he would never have the chance to see him again in this life, but he didn't expect him to make a comeback......

Han Derang hadn't seen the letter yet, and when he heard Yelu Xiuge's words, his heart suddenly itched, but he couldn't snatch the letter from Yelu Xiuge's hand, so he asked urgently.

"Who is it?"

As he handed him the letter, he faintly spit out a name.

"Li Jiqian!"

"Li Jiqian?!"

Han Derang was stunned, and after hurriedly taking the letter and reading it carefully, he was shocked: "He is still alive, and he actually accumulated such a large number of people when the Zhe family swept the northwest?" ”

Yelu Hugo said with emotion: "I think it is also the Folding Family that swept the northwest to fulfill him." The folded family is rampant in the northwest, and where they pass, there is not a single inch of grass left. The lords of those small countries in the northwest could only flee in embarrassment when they encountered the big evil star of the Zhe family. Li Jiqian can just take this opportunity to subdue them......"

Han Derang was still shocked, "But in just a few years, he has actually accumulated 400,000 horses......"

Brother Yelu Hugh glanced at Han Derang and said lightly: "The people of the countries of the Western Regions are very similar to our Great Liao, they are soldiers on their horses and people when they dismount. So it is not surprising that he was able to amass 400,000 horses.

If he had been given enough goods, he would have gathered more.

It's just that the combat effectiveness of these people may not be able to withstand the 100,000 elite soldiers of our Liao State.

So don't look at their numbers, in fact, there is nothing to be afraid of.

But these manpower, dragging the folded family in the northwest is very easy. ”

Han Qiong nodded slowly and agreed, "I think so too...... And I think we can also accede to the request he mentioned in the letter. ”

Xiao Zhuo was stunned and said: "After taking the Yan Kingdom, help him to conquer the family and restore the party?" ”

Han Qiong nodded seriously.

Brother Yelu said lightly: "You can promise him...... Once Yang Yansi is eliminated, compared to the party, the Zhe family poses the greatest threat to us. ”

Xiao Zuo nodded and said, "So you can really promise him...... With the help of Li Jiqian, the battle of the sneak attack on Dongsheng Mansion should be able to win. So who is going to face the Yan army head-on? ”

Xiao Zhuo's voice landed.

Han Qiong looked at Brother Yelu Xiu in a daze.
