And those two who did not have a Jinshi background - Chen Shidao and Qin Guan.

The two of them can only wait until next year, when the system begins, these two must show their true talents and learning, and fight with the talents of the world for the opportunity that Cai Dao won for everyone.

As for the youngest Li Diao, Song Shenzong didn't mean to embarrass him, he was originally from Huazhou, and he had no official position, so he was the first to enter Beijing. Song Shenzong sent him to the nursery and stayed for a full ten days before sending him to Sun Jue, where he could arrange some errands for the old minister who was sitting in Guanzhong to hone this talented young man.

As for how much he can understand from Cai Dao, it depends on his own comprehension ability and his perception when he practices locally later.

Three major events concerning the country.

On the first day of the first month of the sixth year of Yuanfeng, Sima Guangshang presented the book edited by him, and was named "Zizhi Tongjian" by Song Shenzong himself. A few months later, Song Shenzong issued an order to promote Sima Guang to the senior secretary of the palace, and Fan Zuyu to the secretary of the province.

From this point, it can be seen that Song Shenzong knew Sima Guang's ability, that is, to repair books and be an imperial history. Neither the commander of the army nor the pro-people officer is suitable. And the same is true of Fan Zuyu, who Sima Guang is optimistic about.

What is more ironic is that at the beginning, Wang Anshi attached great importance to this Fan Zuyu, but unfortunately, this person followed behind Sima Guang, and only knew how to repair books, and he never took care of the bad husband at all.

In the sixth year of Yuanfeng, Song Shenzong wanted to send a large army to continue the expedition against Western Xia.

Because of Cai Dao's dedication, without Shen Kuo continuing to stay in Yan'an Mansion, and without Xu Xi, the Great Song Dynasty version of Zhao Kuo, continuing to lead the troops, Yuanfeng would not have the fiasco of Yongle City in five years. This is also a situation that Cai Dao only learned about after the fact. What no one expected was that it was just a small plan, a small defensive counterattack along the way, and the entire army of the Western Xia Kingdom was wiped out by a full 50,000 horses all the way.

The loss of the number of people in the Western Xia Kingdom will not greatly hurt the vitality of the entire Western Xia Kingdom, but it will also make the Western Xia Kingdom jealous of the current power of the Great Song Kingdom, and choose to forbear and lurk in the future.

However, Su Shi and the general Liu Changzuo cooperated seamlessly, and the results were too good, so that Song Shenzong, who had just extinguished the ambition of destroying the Western Xia Kingdom, rekindled the *** in his heart.

As soon as hope rose, Song Shenzong was poured a basin of cold water by the person he chose.

There are three main culprits in the defeat of the Battle of Yongle City in history - Shen Kuo, Xu Xi and Chong Ge.

Shen Kuo is the culprit, Xu Xi is the culprit, but Chong Ge is guilty of a big taboo that a leading general should not commit - supporting the army and not saving it.

Now, although Shen Kuo has not been demoted, he has been completely transferred from the front line.

However, Xu Xi and Chong Ge were placed in Xihe Road at the same time, and the army was stationed in Lanzhou, which was obtained in the summer of the Five Roads.

Originally, if there was only a seed in Lanzhou, it would be impossible for the Xixia people to sneak attack Lanzhou.

However, with Xu Xi, the Great Song Dynasty version of Zhao Kuo, there was such a flaw in the army of the Western Xia people.

Although the commander of the Western Xia Kingdom is not as intelligent as the cultivator, he is not an easy person to match.

First, he sent a large army to attack and harass Huizhou, and the army led by the seed man to the rescue. Then, the Western Xia Kingdom sent partial divisions to surround Lanzhou.

At this time, Lanzhou had just been recovered by the Great Song Kingdom for more than a year, and the city wall was dilapidated, although the army of the Five Roads Expedition was preserved because of the Zhongguan Li Xian. However, half of the army has been taken away by the cultivators, and the generals left behind are also capable, but they have to temporarily accept the jurisdiction of Xu Xi, a half-hung civil official.

Before the siege of the Western Xia army, they discovered this information, but they did not dare to go out of the city to attack, and only dared to defend the infant city. also said something eloquently: "If the king doesn't drum and don't make a column!" ”

He even personally held the sword, and led his own army to supervise the soldiers in Lanzhou City to resist the battle.

The opportunity has been lost, and the only chance of life has been missed in vain. When the Western Xia army completely surrounded the dilapidated city walls of Lanzhou, and the generals of the Song army saw the more and more Western Xia troops gathering outside the city, they knew that the general trend had gone.

Speaking of which, it is not a good plan for Chong Ge to take away nearly half of the elite soldiers, because he is facing the commander of the Western Xia Kingdom, and the army is more than 100,000 horses. However, the Western Xia Kingdom was ashamed of Xue Yuanfeng's five-year fiasco. also played a small trick, when this expedition, nearly half of the female soldiers were mixed in the army that attacked Huizhou. In this way, there were enough men and horses left for the army to attack Lanzhou.

He led his army to confront the Western Xia army near Huizhou for seven days. By the time he noticed the strangeness of the other party and came back to his senses, it was too late.

Lanzhou was breached, and it was again occupied by the Western Xia Kingdom. Such tragic news quickly spread throughout Xihe Road.

"The scholar misunderstood me!" This is the last sentence that the kind of man said after getting the news and vomiting blood and passing out in a coma, and it is also the last sentence in the life of this veteran who has been fighting on the border of Song and Xia all his life.

The blow of this sentence was a bit big, but the people who heard this sentence did not blame the old general. Because they all know that the scholar in this sentence refers to Xu Xi.

Only a month later, the angry seed died on the sickbed.

Without the defeat of Yongle City, his life was still complete. Although from the consequential point of view, the defeat of Lanzhou cannot escape the relationship. But in fact, Song Shenzong and the ministers of the court both knew in their hearts that this defeat really had little to do with the seeds.

The mistake is wrong, Xu Xi, this scholar who Song Shenzong and Lu Huiqing appreciated together. Many people have advised Song Shenzong for this person, and it is not appropriate to reuse it for him.

After Cai Dao entered the country, he also bluntly accused Song Shenzong of indiscriminately appointing Xu Xi, who could only talk on paper. And the nickname of 'Great Song Zhao Kuo' was obtained by Cai Dao for him.

But as an emperor, Song Shenzong always firmly believed in his vision, although he did not continue to insist on building Yongle City, which was jointly proposed by Shen Kuo and Xu Xi, he still sent Xu Xi to Xihe Road, where the troops were the most elite.

This straw bag is actually the same as the eternal laughing stock Song Xianggong, who adheres to ancient etiquette in the war. The same is facing the country of barbarians, and the same food is ancient. The result is the same.

The city of Lanzhou was broken, and there was not one in ten generals and soldiers who could break through from it. Fortunately, due to the short time of recovery of Lanzhou City, the imperial court has not had time to immigrate here. It also avoided the defeat of Yongle City in the original historical facts, which led to the loss of nearly 100,000 people and craftsmen under the butcher's knife of the Western Xia Kingdom.

There are escaped generals and soldiers to testify, and if Song Shenzong wants to shield Xu Xi who died in battle, Cai Dao will not agree in the first place. After learning the news, Cai Dao personally wrote a recital, imploring Song Shenzong to severely punish Xu Xi.

The ministers of the court, whether they are conservatives or reformers, no one came out to help, although Xu Xi is a literati, he is not from the right path at all. At the beginning, he just flattered and said good things about changing the law in his own policy, and he changed from a cloth cloth to the minister who is now guarding the side. What's more, his backstage, the capricious Lu Huiqing, has fallen.

In response to this situation, Song Shenzong had to deal with Xu Xi, who had died in battle, and demoted his family to Lingnan. As the main general, the seed brother who had died of illness took improper measures and was demoted to one rank.
