Chapter 985: Master's Pride

Zhao Shu was in front of Xiao Dayou, and he put on a solid hand!

He felt comfortable, and he was about to fly.

But when I thought of the master, I immediately trembled and trembled, and my heart beat a drum. After all, cowhide can be blown, but as an emperor, you must do it, otherwise you will be ashamed.

"Master, what did the disciple say just now?" Zhao Shu said uncertainly.

Wang Ning'an smiled, "The words are domineering enough, but there are almost means, if Your Majesty can categorically order to cut off Xiao Dayou's head and give it to Yelu Hongji, it will definitely anger him!" Maybe it works better. ”

"Oops!"

Zhao Shu snorted in a low voice, slapped his head, couldn't catch it back, and immediately said: "Master, now make an order, get people back, and then cut off your head?" ”

"There is no second person to enter the palace in this matter, does Your Majesty still want to learn from Cao Mengde?"

Zhao Shu smiled dumbly, and said embarrassedly: "Yes, Emperor Wu of Wei, Wen Tao Wuluo, the kings of the past dynasties, few can do it, but the Cao family has not been able to dominate the world, it is because of Emperor Wei Wu's mental skills, sometimes things are really not authentic...... If you are really confident and calmly face the Hun envoy, you are self-defeating and recognized by others, but you are annoyed and angry, and you go to hunt down and kill the Hun envoy, which is simply a loss of the emperor's dignity. ”

In front of the master, Zhao Shu was unceremonious, and he was not a character.

Wang Ningan smiled, "Your Majesty, is there a third way to deal with this matter of catching a knife?" ”

"This ...... I can't think of it! ”

Wang Ningan said in a low voice: "In fact, you can wait for the Hun envoy to go back and send someone to send a generous gift, and you don't need any explanation, just give gifts, send them every festival, and within half a year, this Hun envoy will definitely be killed...... When the time comes, people will say that the Xiongnu Emperor is ruthless, and the Wei Wu Emperor is thirsty for talent1"

After listening to the teacher's trick, Zhao Shu was dumbfounded, and held back for a long time before he figured out the insidiousness of this trick, and there was only one word left: Serve!

Imagine a foreign king giving gifts to his ministers, what would the emperor think? Even the most generous person will mumble, right?

Under long-term suspicion, it's no wonder if nothing happens!

This is the means of dignification, so insidious that there is nothing to say!

Zhao Shu hesitated for a moment, then his eyes suddenly lit up, and he said in surprise: "Master, you're not telling a joke, this, this is a plan!" ”

Wang Ning'an laughed, "That's right, since Yelu Hongji sent someone to greet him, we will also send someone over, and by the way, we will send a big gift to Yeluren first!" ”

"Master is Master, this move is too ruthless!"

Zhao Shu was excited, and immediately issued an order to send a messenger to Yunzhou to meet Yelu Hongji.

The Song envoy soon met the emperor of the Khitan, he was not polite, and the Great Song Dynasty is now a country and a people, full of confidence.

"Your Majesty the Khitan Emperor, Yunzhou is the homeland of my Han family and the legacy of my ancestors...... Now my Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, personally mention the heavenly soldiers here, if you want to save your life, immediately withdraw from Yunzhou, bow your head to the ministers, pay tribute and confess, maybe there is a glimmer of life, if you are bold enough to resist the heavenly soldiers, then the jade will be burned, there is no way out! ”

The ministers of the Khitan are all mad!

Okay, you are a big Song, you really have no one in your eyes, and you don't take Khitan seriously!

"Your Majesty, the ministers thought that they should immediately behead this person and sacrifice his head to the flag!"

"That's right, kill him!"

"Kill it! Nothing remarkable! ”

……

The Khitan ministers clamored, but the Song envoy didn't care, he laughed wildly.

"Kill me? Come on! My head is here, take it with you...... But don't forget, the Great Song Dynasty is a good soldier, unstoppable, from His Majesty the Emperor to ordinary Khitan people, all of them will pay for my life, it's worth it! ”

In the face of the arrogance of the Song envoys, the Khitan ministers were simply angry.

But Yelu Hongji didn't dare to let go, he knew in his heart that the gap between the Khitan and the Great Song Dynasty was too big, especially in the tough battle, and there was no chance of winning.

Yelu Hongji has already made a plan, he wants to give up Yunzhou, really retreat to the grassland, and completely restore the way of life of his ancestors...... No matter how many soldiers and horses the Great Song Dynasty had and how sharp their weapons were, they couldn't chase and kill the Khitan all over the world, and the vast grassland was their natural barrier.

You can't be nostalgic for a place like Yunzhou anymore.

Prosperity and comfort only belong to the strong, not to the current Khitan!

But if you want to retreat to the grassland, you must have good pastures and enough horses to be able to deal with the Great Song Dynasty. Yelu Hongji has already chosen Mobei as his future base camp, and what he needs to do now is to buy time and move the war horse.

For this, he can endure anything!

"Song envoy, my Great Khitan and the Great Song Dynasty have been friendly for a hundred years, you are so aggressive, it is really too rude...... However, I remember that you are a first offender, and I will not be held accountable, and I dare not say that you belong to Yunzhou, this place is indeed a gift from Shi Jingjiao to Da Liao back then, and it is not impossible for you to take it back, but please also ask your country to come up with 5 million stone grain...... As long as the food arrives, I will give you Yunzhou immediately, and I will never break my word! ”

This is a complete lie, even if you really agree, how much time will it take to mobilize 5 million stone grain? At least for a few months, Yelu Hongji has already completed the relocation, and if he can, he will fight, and if he can't, he will run away, the perfect delaying tactic!

It's just that Song Envoy didn't buy it at all!

"Your Majesty is really good at telling jokes...... This is the land of my Han family, you have stolen other people's land for more than 100 years, ordinary people's homes, renting other people's land and real estate, and you still have to pay rent! It is ridiculous that you should let your master buy food for him...... My Great Song Emperor has issued an edict, a million troops, waiting for the day, you are unwilling to withdraw from Yunzhou, my Great Song Heavenly Soldiers will drive you away, but when the time comes, the lives will be ruined and the blood will be shed for thousands of miles, it is not the fault of my Great Song Dynasty. ”

After speaking, the Song envoy flicked his sleeves and took the initiative to leave, leaving behind a group of angry Khitan courtiers...... It's just that when he left, he sent ten carts of gifts to Yelu Renxian, and also sent a letter, you must know that this is a treatment that Yelu Hongji does not have!

After receiving the gift, Yeluren was stunned first, what is the reason?

He opened the letter and wrote: The Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty remembered that Mr. Ji had been stationed in Yunzhou for many years, handled things fairly, and did not have any evil deeds of bullying the people of the Han family, which can be called benevolent and generous. Therefore, please rest assured, sir, even if you take it back to Yunzhou, my Great Song Dynasty will not treat the Khitan people as well! Be sure to be kind to the captives.

"It's inexplicable!"

Yeluren thought about it for a while, and suddenly a cold sweat came down, there is a fucking problem with this! He immediately asked to see Jeluhonki. After facing the king, he was full of grievances, and cried on the ground, "Your Majesty, the minister and the Great Song Dynasty have no contact at all, please Your Majesty to be clear!" ”

Yelu Hongji laughed loudly, not caring at all, "Qing has always been loyal, how can I not know that the Song people treat everyone else as fools, such a clumsy discordant plan, how can I be fooled!" Don't worry, these things should be given to you by me, you have really worked hard over the years, and I know everything clearly! ”

Yelu Renxian was extremely moved, "Thank you Your Majesty for your understanding, it is difficult to repay the grace of heaven for your death!" ”

Junchen said intimate words for a long time, and when he was leaving, Yelu Hongji suddenly smiled indifferently, "Aiqing, the Great Song Dynasty firearms are sharp, and it is not trivial, you go down and arrange it, and send the livestock and grain of Yunzhou to the grassland!" ”

Yeluren hesitated slightly, and then nodded immediately...... It seems that His Majesty is determined to give up Yunzhou, and the days of being the emperor of the soil are finally over.

That's it, as an important minister of the Khitan royal family, he should not care about personal gains and losses, even if he gives a life, it is not a big deal!

……

"At this time, although the Khitan monarchs and ministers are still in harmony, it doesn't matter, the wedge is in, as long as the pressure is strong enough and the situation is critical enough, they will make trouble, and they can't help it!"

Zhao Shu talked about his opinion...... Since the first battle of Juyongguan, Wang Ningan has taken a closer and closer seat, just picking up the missing and filling the gaps, and handing over more decision-making power to Zhao Shu.

Zhao Shu is also quickly adapting to the change from emperor to commander.

There are many things that a good commander needs to consider, and ninety percent of them are very trivial, such as the original forbidden army wearing water bladders...... However, when the weather is cold, the water freezes, and when the scouts are on patrol, they simply eat the snow on the ground...... After Zhao Shu noticed it, he ordered that every time the scouts went out, they would be given two catties of spirits, and when they were thirsty or cold, they would drink two sips, and they would immediately warm up, which was very popular with the soldiers.

In addition, it is bitterly cold in the north, and the soldiers' winter clothes must be light and warm, and they must be strong enough.

Zhao Shu noticed that the workers in Youzhou liked to wear a dark blue cheesecloth, which was originally used to make sails, but was later improved and became so popular with the workers that it was nicknamed "labor cloth".

Zhao Shu asked the quilt factory to make military uniforms out of labor cloth, lined with the best cotton, and the neckline, cuffs, etc., were all wrapped in sheepskin, which could protect the soldiers' hands, feet and necks from frostbite...... There are too many trivial things like this to mention, just as Wang Ning'an judged, the more modern the army, the more expensive it is, logistics, and supplies, and there must be no problems, otherwise it will affect the combat effectiveness.

In this battle, Wang Ningan tried to play the role of a good staff officer, and at the same time, he also implemented a staff officer system at all levels of the army, with the chief general fully responsible for fighting the war, and the staff officer responsible for planning and coordinating, handling all kinds of trivial affairs, and trying to ensure that the army was in the best condition.

After almost a month and a half of adjustment in Youzhou, the entire 30,000 forbidden army has been prepared!

Zhao Shu also changed into an ordinary military uniform, yes, it was designed by himself, coarse labor cloth with sheepskin, and only a small golden dragon was decorated at the neckline to show his identity.

After cleaning up, Zhao Shu felt as if he was much taller, and today's aura was two meters eight!

"Master, can you send troops?"

Wang Ningan, who was also dressed, nodded with a smile.

The monarchs and ministers appeared in the Changping camp together, Zhao Shu rode a war horse, ran in front of the soldiers, and everywhere he went, there were continuous cheers of long live, and the atmosphere of the audience reached its peak!

Zhao Shu returned to the middle, suddenly pulled out the Son of Heaven Sword, and raised it high!

"Soldiers, let's go!"

"Let's go!"

…… From beginning to end, Wang Ningan didn't say a word, but his eyes were full of pride, the pride that belonged to the master!
