Zhao Shu returned to Juyongguan, passed through Changping, and arrived at Youzhou Palace...... Along the way, His Majesty the Emperor was very silent and calm.

However, public opinion has exploded, the emperor led the troops to battle, killed hundreds of Khitan elite palace troops, and won a complete victory.

I will restore Yunzhou in the Great Song Dynasty and reproduce the prosperity of the Han and Tang dynasties, which is just around the corner.

Everywhere Zhao Shu went, the people greeted him in formation, cheered and cheered, and the soldiers also nodded to the ground on one knee, paying the highest respect and loyalty to the king.

Facing the fanatical people, frankly speaking, Zhao Shu was embarrassed, and his face was very red.

In the end, there were only two masters and apprentices left, and Zhao Shu was no longer tense.

"Master, this time it's the disciple who is wrong, it's the disciple who is greedy for fun, and casually went out of the Great Wall, and dozens of guards died in battle, I, I am wrong!" Zhao Shu looked like a primary school student.

Wang Ningan just sighed, "Your Majesty shoulders all directions in Kyushu, hundreds of millions of Li people, and is the lord of the common people, how can it be wrong?" ”

Zhao Shu's face turned even redder.

"Master, wrong is wrong, right is right, this is what you teach your disciples!"

Wang Ningan chuckled and said, "Since Your Majesty said so, then Your Majesty will tell the truth about this time!" Let the newspapers keep reporting and let the people of the world know what His Majesty has done? ”

As soon as these words came out, Zhao Shu was stunned.

Can you say that?

Speaking of it, where is the face of the heavenly family?

What do the military and civilian people think?

What's more, in this war, the whole Song Dynasty has been full of energy, and suddenly there is a playful emperor, so how can the people deal with themselves?

There are also stock markets, futures, and the DPRK situation, so many bad things are tangled together...... What's even worse is that the master's abdication is imminent, and the next must be the Manchu Dynasty, this is the time when the emperor needs prestige the most, if he tells the truth, how can he rule over the hundred officials?

Zhao Shu's face was feverish, and it was red!

He became more and more ashamed, and involuntarily lowered his head.

"Master, it's still the same sentence, I am indeed wrong, if the master does not punish the disciple, the disciple will be guilty of himself!" Zhao Shu's stubborn temper also came up.

Wang Ningan shook his head again and again, not knowing whether he was happy or helpless!

"Your Majesty, since ancient times, there has been no victorious general, you are not afraid of losing, you are not afraid of mistakes, you are afraid of not knowing how to lose, and you don't know how to be wrong! The minister can't punish His Majesty, but the minister has a few problems, if Your Majesty can think clearly, maybe he will be able to control thousands of troops and horses, and he won't make mistakes in the future! ”

Zhao Shu was overjoyed after hearing this, and hurriedly said, "Please ask Master!" ”

"First...... Why did Yelu Hongji suddenly appear in Yunzhou? It stands to reason that Youzhou is lost, Yunzhou is already dispensable, and my Great Song Dynasty has not sent troops for a long time, but he is just waiting for the opportunity. And is it necessary for Yelu Hongji to bet his life and Khitan national fortune on this game? ”

Zhao Shu showed a contemplative look, he is very similar to Zhao Zhen, not the kind of person with a fast brain, but they are definitely not stupid, after a while, Zhao Shu said slowly: "According to common sense, Yelu Hongji should not appear, but he just came!" This shows that he has the pressure of not being able to lose Yunzhou, so he has to do this! ”

"And what's the pressure?" Wang Ningan asked.

"He is the emperor of the Khitan, if he loses Yunzhou and loses face, his subordinates will not be convinced." After Zhao Shu finished speaking, he shook his head, "In the past, he lost Youzhou, and recently he lost Goryeo, the Khitan land is vast and sparsely populated, and he doesn't care so much about the land, and Yunzhou is too close to the Great Song Dynasty, and he has a hard time with the Great Song Dynasty here, and there is no good fruit to eat!" ”

Zhao Shu overturned the speculation of face, and then there was only Lizi left, and he couldn't figure it out for a while.

Wang Ningan didn't say anything, but got up and walked to the front of the sand table, and Zhao Shu also followed, and his reading experience in the Royal Martial Arts allowed Zhao Shu to easily understand the sand table.

He quickly found Youzhou, the Great Wall, to the west were the Taihang Mountains, Juyongguan, Ruzhou, Yehuling, and then Yunzhou, that is, Xijing of Liao...... Further west, there is the Golden River, a line of Yin Mountain...... In the past, the homeland of the Han family was here, and if Hu Ma was not taught to do Yin Mountain, if he could keep Yin Mountain, he would be able to defend the land of the Central Plains...... Back then, Shi Jingjiao dedicated the sixteen states of Yanyun, and he was stunned to remove the two major barriers in the Central Plains...... made the Khitan enter the Central Plains many times, unscrupulous, Shi Jingjiao should be cut with a thousand knives!

Zhao Shu tried hard to recall the military knowledge he had learned, and he inadvertently saw another place, Yunneizhou!

This Yunnei Prefecture is different from Yunzhou, located in the south of Yinshan Mountain, north of the Yellow River, and in the past, it was close to Xixia, with abundant water and grass, and it was the best horse farm...... Zhao Shu saw this, and finally his eyes lit up!

He seems to have caught the key...... Don't worry, sort it out a little bit...... Almost a quarter of an hour later, Zhao Shu hammered the sand table fiercely, and said excitedly: "Master, disciple understands!" ”

Wang Ningan smiled, "Your Majesty has really figured it out?" ”

"Hmm!"

Zhao Shu pointed at Liaodong with his hand, "Now that the Jurchens are powerful, Wanyan Yingge may sweep Liaodong at any time with the help of the power of the Bohai Sea, and the Khitan has lost a horse farm!" After the Great Song Dynasty recovered Youzhou, they crossed the Great Wall almost every year, drove the Khitan, and burned the grassland, so the north of the Great Wall, within 500 miles, is not a suitable horse farm...... After all, the last horse farm of the Khitan is Yunnei Prefecture, which is also the reason why Yunzhou must be defended! ”

Zhao Shu talked eloquently, "Western Xia fell into the hands of the Great Song Dynasty, our iron cavalry is stationed in Hetao, if we take Yunzhou again, we will attack from both sides, the horse farm in Yunnei Prefecture will not be able to be saved, and lose an important source of war horses, let alone compete with the Great Song Dynasty, even if it is the Jurchen, it can destroy them!" ”

Wang Ningan finally showed a relieved smile, it is not a bad thing for an emperor to be warlike, but if he is not strong enough, it is a tragedy.

Zhao Shu can see through this game of chess, which means that he has the ability to control the war, as a master, Wang Ningan is satisfied.

"Your Majesty, the minister wants to hear it, how to fight next?"

Zhao Shu hesitated for a moment, "Master, how many war horses are there in Yunnei Prefecture, do you know?" ”

"I've already checked, there should be no less than 500,000 horses!"

Zhao Shu was even more surprised, "In this case, it is impossible for the Khitan to transfer so many war horses at once, and they don't have that ability...... The disciple thought that Yelu Hongji should want to delay time, and wait until the spring of next year, when the water and grass are abundant, and then he will move the war horse to another place, during this time, he can fight if he can, and drag it if he can't! ”

Wang Ningan finally smiled.

"Your Majesty's judgment coincides with the ministers, so what about Your Majesty's tricks?"

With Master's encouragement, Zhao Shu became more confident.

"Master, there are so many war horses, no matter what, you can't let them go...... Although the Great Song Dynasty had a railway, the front-line transportation, especially the artillery weighing thousands of catties, was inseparable from horses, so it had to be snatched down, and it also gave the Khitan an an unforgettable lesson! ”

"How to rob? Is it a direct attack, or is it? ”

"A direct frontal attack is thousands of miles away, and there are many difficulties, and our artillery-based army, so pushed all the way over, the loss is too great, the disciple thinks that it is still necessary to mobilize the men and horses of Western Xia, cross the Yellow River from the ice, surprise attack Yunneizhou, and end the largest horse farm in Khitan in one fell swoop!"

After Zhao Shu finished speaking, he looked at the master and saw a smile of relief.

"Your Majesty has such insight, it is enough to become a teacher, and there is nothing that the minister can teach Your Majesty!"

Fighting a war is nothing more than two things to do, knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent, if you can do it, I dare not say that you will not be defeated in a hundred battles, and it is almost the same. Wang Ningan's words came from the bottom of his heart, but Zhao Shu was even more embarrassed.

"Master, don't praise the disciple, the disciple still feels guilty when he thinks of those guards who died in battle."

Wang Ningan sighed: "Your Majesty cherishes the soldiers, which is admirable. But as a commander-in-chief, you must not be kind and indecisive. Now that the fighter plane is fleeting, Your Majesty should make a decision! ”

Zhao Shu immediately stood up, in good spirits.

"Master is right, immediately send an edict to the Western Xia side, let Di Jian lead 10,000 iron cavalry to attack Yunnei Prefecture, and Han Zhongyan is responsible for transporting grain and grass to supply military supplies."

At the sound of an order, someone immediately passed the decree.

The master and apprentice were about to deploy the next move, when someone suddenly came to report that the Khitan had sent an envoy.

This time it was also an old acquaintance, named Xiao Dayou.

When he saw Wang Ningan and Zhao Shu, he was immediately terrified and bowed deeply.

"My Majesty has just learned that Juyong Pass has offended the Great Song Supreme, and specially sent a foreign minister to apologize, and I implore the Great Song Emperor to forgive my Majesty's faux pas!"

I want to vomit when I hear this, can I be more hypocritical?

Believe it or not, if Yelu Hongji knew that Zhao Shu was among those 200 people, even if he fought hard, he would kill Zhao Shu! Wait until the aftermath, and you don't necessarily regret it!

Wang Ningan guessed correctly again, Yelu Hongji took thousands of palaces to divide the army, and wanted to test the reality of the Great Song Dynasty, especially to understand the strength and weakness of firearms, so as to formulate a strategy to deal with it.

As a result, he fought with Zhao Shu in a daze, and waited until he withdrew, and two days later, a merchant sent a letter, saying that there was actually the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty in that team!

Yeluhunkiton beat his chest and slapped himself four times, and his face was swollen!

You must know that Zhao Shu is in the army, regardless of casualties, leave this kid behind, and the world will be peaceful!

Don't care how much you hate, if you lose the opportunity, you can't get it back, the emperors of the Khitan and the Great Song Dynasty are here, so you might as well talk about it.

Xiao Dayou was very respectful, "Your Majesty the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, my emperor sent his foreign ministers to greet him, and he also came to ask His Majesty!" ”

Zhao Shu smiled faintly, "If you have anything to say, just say it!" ”

"Yes......" Xiao Dayou bent over and said bitterly: "Since the last longevity celebration, our two countries reached an agreement, and this time they have communicated with each other, and the two sides are safe, why did the Great Song Dynasty tear up the covenant and send troops without authorization, it is inevitable to bully the weak and lose morality!" ”

After Zhao Shu heard this, he suddenly laughed out loud.

"You're right! Da Song is to bully the weak, that is, to suppress people with power! Not convinced? Zhao Shu raised his eyebrows and sneered: "I learned all this from you, you took advantage of the chaos to take away the sixteen states of Yanyun, and now you still occupy the homeland of the Han family, I am here to take back Yunzhou!" ”

"Remember, I won't let Yelu Hongji go next time!!"
