Compared to Tianhe's Nine Treasure Lotus Lamp, Zhao Ji has already had fun, and everyone in the subsequent game is casual, mainly chatting nonsense.

"Your Majesty, I heard an interesting story about Captain Tong from the northwest, I don't know if Your Majesty wants to hear it," Wang Hao said with a smile.

"Oh what's the funny thing, let's hear it." Zhao Ji said with interest.

Wu Zhi and Zhu Mian also listened quietly, Tong Guan took the prince to patrol the northwest border, and every day there was a chapter to report directly to the imperial court, and Zhao Ji basically knew every move, so the interesting things that Wang Huang would say were Tong Guan's personal affairs, or gossip from outside.

"It is said that since Captain Tong arrived at the northwest border, he has been patrolling everywhere every day, which can be described as conscientious and hardworking."

Wang Hao first touted Tong Guan, and then began to gossip obscenely.

It is said that Tong Guan went to inspect the northwest frontier defense, and when he walked to Qinzhou, he met Qian Ang, the governor of Zhou. Qian Ang got up early that day and waited until it was almost noon, when Tong Guan Shi Ran floated by. Qian Ang was angry and asked him what he was doing, he arrived so late.

It is said that it is rude for him to ask this, and it is the duty of the superiors to ask you to stand honestly with a lot of mouths. But Tong Guan was very face-saving, took care of his Western Army lineage, and made an exception to explain, saying that the mule he rode was too small and walked slowly.

Unexpectedly, Qian Ang then asked: "Captain, are you riding a male mule or a female mule?"

Answer: "Mule." ”

Qian Ang: "The male mule is not easy to ride, castrate this thing"

was humiliated by others, and Tong Guan's face turned green at that time.

"Hahaha, it's interesting and interesting, my Song Xijun's upright temper really deserves its name," Zhao Ji immediately laughed after listening to Wang Huang's story.

The Western Army is not only recognized as the strongest army in the Great Song Dynasty, but also the most individual army in the Great Song Dynasty.

"Tong Taiwei is extraordinary, but how can it be a hey, this is his eternal pain" Wang Hao pinched his beard and said with a weird smile.

Wu Zhi smiled slightly, and said in his heart that Wang Huang is really a villain who does not change, when Tong Guan was in Bianjing before, he was like a grandson in front of Tong Guan, but as soon as Tong Guan was not there, he made fun of people behind their backs. However, Wang Hao only dared to make fun of two sentences, he would never dare to stab Tong Guan in the back like he did with Cai Jing.

It is also strange to say, Cai Jing is the prime minister, Wang Huang is the deputy prime minister, and Tong Guan is the captain, they are on par with each other in the court, but Wang Huang is not afraid of Cai Jing, but he is afraid of Tong Guan to death, Wu Zhi has seen it with his own eyes, in the court, Tong Guan glared, and Wang Huang, who was halfway through the words, immediately swallowed the words back, and didn't even dare to let go of a fart.

"Speaking of the northwest border, Western Xia has been very dishonest recently" Zhao Ji stopped touching the cards and continued: "I recently heard Tong Aiqing's recital that the Western Xia has begun to invade my Great Song border again and again, and has also deployed heavy troops in the Xiping area of Xiazhou, it seems that they plan to attack Qingzhou."

After speaking, Zhao Ji looked at Wang Huang, Wuzhi, Zhu Mian and them, and asked: "Now that my Great Song Dynasty treasury is abundant, and the Hehuang region has been recovered, I plan to send troops to destroy Western Xia and solve the disturbance of the northwest border of my Great Song Dynasty once and for all, what do you think?"

Hearing this, the three of them were stunned.

Wu Zhi smiled bitterly in his heart, at present, he and Zhu Mian, and Wang Hao are all laymen who do not understand military affairs, and they are even defined as traitors, and Zhao Ji did not hold a court meeting to discuss such a first-class military major event as the use of foreign troops, but asked the opinions of a few "traitorous ministers" here, which is really too individual.

"Your Majesty, such a military matter, the minister does not dare to discuss it." Zhu Mian was the first to reply, he was so interested only because Tong Guan held absolute authority in the military, and he was afraid of offending Tong Guan by saying the wrong thing.

"The minister thinks it's not appropriate to use force now." Wang Hao said, "It's not the first time that Western Xia has disturbed my northwest border, and when they come, let the Western Army beat them back."

Zhao Ji's slender fingers tapped on the table, and then looked at Wu Zhi.

"The minister also thinks it's better not to destroy Western Xia now, right now the northern Liaojin is in full swing, and the five capitals of the Liao State have lost three capitals, and in time it will be the time for my Great Song Dynasty to recapture the sixteen states of Yanyun, Your Majesty is still waiting patiently." Wu Zhidao.

The sixteen states of Yanyun are very important to the Great Song Dynasty, and now the Liao State has lost most of the land by the Jin State, as long as the Bohai region in the north of Yanyun of the Liao State is occupied by the Jin State, then the sixteen states of Yanyun of the Liao State will face the situation of being attacked by the enemy, and then it will be the best time for the Great Song Dynasty to seize Yanyun.

This point has already been determined in the Great Song Dynasty, everyone is waiting for the opportunity, the court has begun to communicate with the Jin State, ready to join the Jin people to attack Yan Yun I don't know which tendon Zhao Ji will make a mistake and want to fight the Western Xia, the fight against the Western Xia will not be able to be defeated for a while and a half, in case of falling into the quagmire, the sixteen states of Yanyun may fall into the hands of the Jin people.

"But where do the Jin people don't know what year and month they have to wait, and besides, my Great Song Dynasty is now unprecedentedly sufficient in the treasury," Zhao Ji said a little entangled.

Wu Zhi couldn't help but be embarrassed, co-authored Zhao Ji felt that the treasury was abundant, so he had the idea of fighting and burning money, is there such a loser

"It will take at least three or five years for the Jin State to conquer the Bohai region of the Liao State"

"The Western Xia gathered heavy troops, and there were indeed traces of aggression"

Seeing the wind and rudder, Wang Hao and Zhu Mian had already begun to loosen their mouths and let Zhao Jihu come.

"Yes, in the past, Western Xia was just a small intrusion on my Great Song Border, this time the entangled heavy troops must have wolf ambitions, we simply preemptively and take the opportunity to destroy Western Xia" Zhao Ji seemed to have decided, but he still asked Wu Zhi: "Aiqing, what do you see?"

"Mrs. Tong is really like a god"

Wu Zhi smiled bitterly in his heart, when Tong Guan left Bianjing, he told Wu Zhi that if the official family had the intention of moving the Western Xia, he must be discouraged, the Western Xia is not so easy to destroy, the previous Shenzong Dynasty organized such a large-scale expedition to the west, and in the end it fell short, and only by recovering Yanyun could he destroy the Western Xia without worry.

"Your Majesty, the soldiers are unknown, it's better not to move, in my opinion, the gathering of heavy troops in Western Xia is just a bluff, and our Great Song Dynasty only needs to defend, don't pay attention to it." Wu Zhi gently persuaded.

"Isn't what Master Wu said too recklessly, in case the Western Xia really invades my Great Song Dynasty, then won't my Great Song Dynasty fall into passivity, and who will bear the consequences when the time comes" Zhu Mian found the loophole in Wu Zhi's words, and immediately attacked with a strange yin and yang spirit.

Verbal attacks involving the government are the norm, and Zhao Ji won't think much about it.

Wu Zhi sneered and said, "Although I can't afford the consequences, I have a plan to make Xixia retreat."

Hearing this, Zhao Ji said happily: "If we can let Xixia withdraw from the army, it will save us a lot of trouble, Aiqing said quickly, what plan do you have?"

"It's very simple, Your Majesty only needs to send an envoy to the northwest with an edict to scold the Western Xia people." Wu Zhi said lightly.
