Chapter 332: Beat You Down
"Shut it all up!" Song Huizong's face turned blue and roared angrily: "I asked you to come here to discuss important matters, not to let you quarrel about right and wrong, each has its own reason!" What I want to listen to is decision-making, not high-sounding truth! ”
"The ministers are guilty, please ask the emperor to punish them!"
The quarrelsome crowd disappeared in Zhao Ji's anger, and everyone didn't dare to quarrel, so as not to anger Long Yan, and they knelt down to plead guilty. It's just that they are small actions with each other, Zhao Ji knows it clearly, now is not the time to deal with these things, so there is no punishment, let them all get up and continue to discuss big things together.
"The question I'm worried about is whether Western Xia will take advantage of the situation to win over the Jin State, and now the Liao State is no longer worried, and the loss of Yelu Yujian and other remnants is harmless, and it can't shake the foundation of the Liao State. However, the people of Liao are bound to be worried, knowing that Yelu Yujian is also a member of the royal family, but Xiao Fengxian is spoiled and disregards the dynasty so that there is civil strife. ”
Zhao Ji analyzed in an orderly manner: "The Liao State is already in chaos, no matter what movement the Liao State has, the Great Song Dynasty will be safe for the time being." Now their eyes are on the Jin State, not the Great Song Dynasty, Yelu Yujian's surrender to the Jin State is a happy event, and the Liao State is bound to send troops against the Jin State, so that he can hand over Yelu Yujian. ”
"Yelu Yujian is very clear about the situation in Liao, and it is impossible for Jin to hand it over easily, even if Liao moves troops, he will not dare to act rashly. If it moved, the Great Song Dynasty would not sit idly by, so the Liao State Iron was determined to stand still and wait and see what happened. ”
"Jin Guo got Yelu Yu to see each other, will inevitably train the Jin soldiers, combat effectiveness is to increase a few points, Jin State, Liao State war horses are far stronger than the Great Song Dynasty, under the strong soldiers, the two tigers will be injured. If the army is really mobilized, no matter which side has an advantage or disadvantage in the Great Song Dynasty. ”
"If the two countries are at peace, then the Great Song Dynasty will be attacked by the enemy, and they will all be dangerous; There was also Western Xia mixed in it, which was very unfavorable to the Great Song Dynasty. The Jin State and the Great Song Dynasty had an alliance first, and the Liao State was eyeing each other, and they did not dare to tear up the alliance easily, nor did they dare to attack the Song Dynasty in the south, and I believe that they did not dare to gamble on this matter. ”
"As for the Liao State, Xiao Fengxian controlled the government, and the Liao Emperor Tianzuo trusted him and him, and he vigorously suppressed his political enemies, the Liao State is not to worry, what really matters is the Western Xia State. But it's good for you, I summoned you urgently, I didn't think of a single countermeasure, some just quarreled, I see that you are too leisurely, I want to go to the front line to experience it! ”
Zhao Ji's cold gaze swept over everyone, it was difficult to hide the anger in his heart, he finally summoned everyone to discuss important matters, but he didn't want everyone to give any opinions, and openly quarreled at the meeting, arguing about right and wrong, these are not important at all, what matters is how the Western Xia Kingdom should respond.
Zhao Ji's anger provoked everyone to dare not say much, so they had to be silent. At this moment, Zhao Ji's foresight is more long-term than anyone else, which also makes everyone understand that Zhao Ji's change is not only a change from the previous atmosphere, but also the most important vision, as well as distinguishing right from wrong.
If Zhao Ji was victorious in the past, he would listen to whomever he would, regardless of right or wrong; Today's Zhao Ji is in charge alone, who dares to oppose his words. Moreover, Zhao Gou helped him again, so that the lost power gradually returned to Zhao Ji's hands, and he was unwilling to continue to endure it, changing the previous image of everyone, dominating the world, which was daunting.
Zhao Ji said coldly: "Prince, tell me what to do?" ”
The crown prince Zhao Huan's heart tightened, thought for a moment, and said: "Back to my father, my sons think that Western Xia temporarily avoids its edge, and it is okay not to send a large army to fight with it. Zhao Ji didn't speak, and motioned to Zhao Huan to continue to explain the reason, "Since the founding of the Great Song Dynasty, it has fought with Western Xia five times, and the most recent battle is the 'Battle of Hengshan'. ”
"In the battle with the Western Xia, the Great Song Dynasty won many victories and lost few defeats, especially in the last battle, it was the master Dao who led the army to the battlefield in person, and the Western Xia army was defeated and retreated again and again, and finally bowed down to the Great Song Dynasty. However, in the opinion of his sons, Li Qianshun, Chongzong of Western Xia, is the best at forbearance, and he can be regarded as a hero. ”
"At the beginning, the monarch of the Western Xia Kingdom personally wrote a letter of surrender, bowed down to the Great Song Dynasty, and now sent troops to capture several cities in the Great Song Dynasty, which is nothing more than the enemy of the Great Song Dynasty is the Liao State and the Jin State. If the retainers did not guess wrong, the monarch of the Western Xia Kingdom was afraid that he would also bow down to the Jin State, so he had the audacity to attack the Great Song Dynasty. ”
"As Erchen thought, if the Great Song Dynasty sent a large army to fight with it again, not to mention the huge amount of materials consumed, if the Jin State came forward after the defeat, he was afraid that when the time came, everything would be in vain, so the minister thought that he only needed to send troops to garrison, and the lost city was not taken care of for the time being, and the important thing at the moment was the Liao State, which was a real thorn in the flesh, and it was necessary to pull out and recover the sixteen states of Yanyun."
"What the prince said is not unreasonable!" Zhao Ji nodded appreciatively, what Zhao Huan said was not groundless, nor did it come out of nowhere, but a fact, so Zhao Ji felt that there was some truth. At the same time, Zhao Ji looked at Zhao Gou again and asked, "Gou'er, do you have any suggestions?" ”
"Back to my father, the opinion of the sons and daughters is diametrically opposed to the prince's, there is no need to avoid his front, and fighting directly with him is the royal way!" Zhao Gou handled it calmly, and replied lightly: "Now, the Great Song Dynasty did not destroy the covenant, nor did it send troops to attack the Western Xia, let alone occupy the city, but the Western Xia did not know what to do, and took the lead in sending troops, and the Great Song Dynasty had a reason to send troops, which is one of them." ”
"Although Western Xia is a small country, what the prince said is not unreasonable, I am afraid that Chongzong of Western Xia has already formed an alliance with the Jin State, relying on the Great Song Dynasty not to dare to act rashly and send troops to capture the city. Whether it's true or not, Erchen thinks that he should send troops to fight. ”
"If the Western Xia is really allied with the Jin State, then this battle is only allowed to win and not lose, and the victory not only deters the ambition of the Jin monarch, but also the wishful thinking of the Western Xia monarch, only by conquering the Western Xia with combat power and making them afraid will they have no worries."
"The recovery of the sixteen states of Yanyun is important, but the several cities lost are equally important, not only the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, but also the people of the Great Song Dynasty, which must be recovered. If the Western Xia gave it up, then it would be easy to say, if they refused to return it, they would be convinced, and there was no need to give benevolence and righteousness. ”
"Western Xia is not a member of the Great Song Dynasty, nor is it a courtier of the Great Song Dynasty, there must be two hearts, so use this battle to make them afraid of the Great Song Dynasty, dare not covet it, and more than half a point, and keep to themselves. If he fought with the Liao State or the Jin State in the future, the Western Xia would not dare to move other ideas, so the sons thought that it would be better to wait if they did not send troops at this time! ”
Zong Ze, Li Gang and the others looked at Zhao Gou dumbfounded, but they were not as outspoken as him and made the benefits and disadvantages clear. However, Zhao Gou did not hesitate to think and did not want to directly dispatch troops to attack Western Xia. Since they dare to do this, then use blood to make them remember that the Great Song Dynasty is not coveted by them. If it weren't for the anger of the emperor Long Yan before, I am afraid that at this time they will not hesitate to win and agree, this is the real heroic dry cloud, indomitable, when it is time to shoot, never soft, worthy of the position of hussar general.
