Don't look at the Great Song Dynasty's successive destruction of the Four Kingdoms over the years, the national strength and military strength have grown rapidly, but for the Great Song Dynasty, those are just going with the flow, never thought that they would lose, and even if they lost, it was nothing.

Only the Khitan is the eternal enemy of life and death in the Great Song Dynasty.

And the Northern Han Dynasty, as a nail that the Khitan nailed in the west of the Great Song Dynasty, was naturally as uncomfortable as sand in the eyes of the Great Song Dynasty.

Although in terms of national strength, under Chai Rong's blow, the Northern Han may actually be inferior to Zhou's Hu-Nan, but it is far more difficult to gnaw than the previous four combined, because unless the Great Song Dynasty can directly destroy the city and destroy the country with lightning speed, otherwise, the Khitan will devote the power of the country to the rescue, and a slight delay will become a full-scale war between the Great Song Dynasty and the Great Liao.

For the Liao State, the Northern Han Dynasty was a barrier that could never be lost, and once the Great Song Dynasty invaded Yanyun in the north, they could borrow the road from the Northern Han Dynasty at any time to go straight to Kaifeng.

With the Northern Han Dynasty, the Great Song Dynasty would never dare to take Yan Yun directly, of course, Chai Rong's kind of bug-like character is not counted, in fact, Liu Jun did disgust Chai Rong that time, and dragged Li Chongjin, the first general at the time, directly in the heart, wasting half of his combat power.

In addition, Jinyang City is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the people of the Northern Han Dynasty are brave and good at fighting, and there is almost no possibility of going down quickly, so this Northern Han Dynasty is an iron broad bean with broken teeth, and it happens to be planted in the key point of the Great Song Dynasty.

Therefore, I heard that the Northern Han Dynasty may descend directly, how can this not make people ecstatic.

In particular, Sun Yue's goal does not seem to be limited to the Northern Han Dynasty.

After briefly explaining the general communication with Guo Wuwei several times, and determining that Sun Yue was definitely not a collaborator and traitor, Zhao Kuangyin decided on the spot to let Sun Yue change into civilian clothes and live in the palace immediately, and then he announced to the public that he was suddenly sick, and only recruited Zhao Pu and Zhao Guangyi into the palace to accompany them, and the four of them began to discuss the battle plan behind closed doors.

Of course, among the four, Zhao Guangyi is a one-of-a-kind.

Except for Zhang Qianjun's personal service, few people in the world know that Sun Yue has been released from prison, let alone what they are talking about behind closed doors all day long. One or two insiders are quite envious of Sun Yue's grace, but Sun Yue himself has always been speechless, because he can't really tell Zhao Kuangyin all his plans, so that Zhao Kuangyin and Zhao Pu are also in the clouds, and they feel mysterious, and they tend to choose to directly seize Taiyuan City to be more happy.

This made Sun Yue die in a hurry, because in his plan, many important premises were based on his own prophets, and these things could not be explained, for example, he knew very well that Emperor Yelujing of Liao was about to die, but now that people are in good health, they really dare to say that he is not a wise man but a god.

"It depends on what you mean, you plan to let me plot against the Khitan."

"Yes. The minister implored the official, let me bet on this, the minister is sixty percent sure, if His Majesty does not believe it, the minister is willing to make a military order. ”

Zhao Kuangyin frowned even deeper when he heard this, and said in surprise: "As far as you just said, I really can't see where the odds of winning are sixty percent, in my opinion, thirty percent is considered high, not to mention, only sixty percent of the odds of winning, you dare to make a military order?" That's not your style."

"If you can hit the Liao State hard, it is unknown to recover Yanyun in one fell swoop, even if there is only a three-percent chance of winning, compared to the Northern Han Dynasty, isn't it worth a gamble?"

Saying that, Sun Yue strode forward and paid his respects excitedly: "Official, I beg you, let me try, Sun's life is not worth a lot of money, but such a God-given opportunity, if you miss it, you really won't have it again." ”

After finishing speaking, I saw Sun Yue choking on the ground with his head, knocking out the blood in his head, and Zhao Kuangyin, who was frightened, was a little stunned.

I have known Sun Yue for so many years, and it is the first time I have seen him so excited.

It's no wonder that Sun Yue is excited, because as he said, this is the best time to cut Liao, and if he misses it, he will blame himself for the rest of his life. Sometimes people don't know how selfless they are if they don't be impulsive.

He has set up such a big game and wasted such a big effort, is it really just to kill a mere Du Xianzhao?

He is for the best opportunity for Da Song this time.

It's a very simple truth, his hero is my enemy, so on the other hand, his enemy is not also my hero?

Yelu Jing, the sleeping emperor of Liao, can be called the most mediocre of the nine emperors of Liao, and he is probably not much stronger than Liu Gang, basically the qualities that a faint monarch should have can be found in him. After so many years, whether it is Zhou or the Great Song Dynasty, the reason why it is so smooth and comfortable in the process of unifying the whole country can be said to be an indispensable contribution to the sleeping emperor, Chai Rong's Northern Expedition can cut down half of Yanyun, in fact, it is indeed a little fortunate to invite the sky.

This product is simply the person Zhao Kuangyin should be most grateful for.

After Yeluxian ascends the throne next year and stabilizes the situation, I am afraid that the life of the Great Song Dynasty will not be so good.

What's even more terrifying is his wife, Xiao Yanyan, this is the woman Sun Yue admires the most in the history of Greater China.

In terms of conspiracy and trickery, she may not be as good as Wu Zetian, but when it comes to governing the country, the surname Wu is not worthy of lifting shoes for her, it is in the hands of this woman that the Liao State has almost let go of ethnic discrimination, and the status of the Han people is almost the same as that of the Khitans, and the imperial examination was established, which really recovered the hearts of the people of Yanyun, and really turned Liao into a complete, powerful and stable regime.

The Great Liao in the post-Xiao period was ten times stronger than the Great Liao at this time.

Really at that time, the Northern Expedition? Thank God if people don't hit you.

"If you think that the life and death of the country have been lived, will you avoid it because of good and evil? Well, well said. It's really worthy of being my great Song Confucian general, no matter what, you kid has given me too many surprises over the years, this time I will believe you once, and I will leave this matter to you to be responsible, if you fail, I will not kill you, but we will calculate the new account and the old account together, you will honestly go to Lingnan to feed mosquitoes for ten years, how about it? ”

"Minister, Commander."

A day later, a series of unbelievable orders began to be issued from the Privy Council, and the shocked government and the opposition all dropped their jaws, and ordered the Zhaoyi Army to make Li Jixun deploy for the front camp of Hedong, and lead the Zhaoyi Army to attack Jinyang City; Cao Bin, the deputy privy envoy, led the soldiers and horses of the Hedong states to send troops from Luzhou City and Fenzhou City to cooperate with Li Jixun.

There is only one requirement, it must be fast!

This is not the end, at the same time, Zhao Kuangyin ordered that the Kaifeng Crane Army, which had just been reorganized, should also go out within a month, and the leader, Zhao Kuangyin, the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty!

He's going to go on a personal expedition!

The ministers are all crazy, it has been more than eight years since the opening of the Song Dynasty, which big battle Zhao Kuangyin is not ready to prepare and prepare, and is ready to fight again when there is nothing wrong, how can it be so good, inexplicable, suddenly about to fight the Northern Han? And you're still in such a hurry?

It's just a small place, why do you suddenly want to drive the expedition in person?

Besides, the Southern Han Dynasty was newly destroyed, and the Southern Tang Dynasty was still alive and well. This kind of thing in national policy can change when it is said to change, so can there be a little principle?
