After Ge Shan left, Zhao Gou didn't mention the matter of borrowing the Tao again, and after dealing with the major and minor affairs of the Great Song Dynasty, he dispersed directly. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

"Your Majesty, Zhao Shuo's wolf ambition must be guarded against, so you must not agree to the matter of borrowing the Tao." After the dispersal of the dynasty, Lu Yihao did not leave, and after Zhao Gou got up to leave, he took a few steps and chased after him.

"Prime Minister, if you don't borrow the way, can Zhao Shuo give up? If he is angry and sends troops south, the prime minister will have a strategy to defend against the enemy. Zhao Gou glanced at Lu Yihao and asked.

"This ......," Lu Yihao said for a while. He had heard of Zhao Shuo's strength. In addition, Zhao Shuo had just broken the Jin army and obtained a large area of the Jin country. A few years ago, the Jin Kingdom was fighting the Great Song Dynasty and had no power to fight back, and now Zhao Shuo is fighting the Jin Kingdom, just playing Yes, if Zhao Shuo attacks the Great Song Dynasty, wouldn't the Great Song Dynasty's army be even more defenseless.

In addition, Yue Fei, the most capable general of the Great Song Dynasty, and the Yue family's army, which has the strongest combat power, now belong to Yue Fei.

In this way, if Zhao Shuo marched south, even if there were no small cannonballs and muskets, the army of the Great Song Dynasty would never be his opponent.

Seeing that Lu Yihao was silent, Zhao Gou looked at the other minister who had not also caught up. "Qin Aiqing, it seems that you also have something to say."

The other is Qin Hui, Zhao Gou asked, Qin Hui saluted. "Your Majesty, what Prime Minister Lu Cheng said is even true, and he must not agree to it. That Zhao Shuo is scheming, if he borrows the Tao with him, after he borrows the Tao, he will not pay it back directly, and I will be helpless. Besides, Zhao Shuo wants to relieve Shudi, which is the country of abundance and a big granary of my Great Song Dynasty. Therefore, the minister risked death to speak, and he must not agree to the matter of borrowing the way. ”

Qin Hui said with emotion, righteous words, and a posture of being a loyal minister.

"Qin Aiqing, do you think that my nephew will not return it after borrowing it?" Zhao Gou asked.

"I don't dare to say this, but this kind of possibility will definitely happen." Qin Hui said.

"If you don't use the Tao to talk to him, if he attacks hard, what can he do?" Zhao Gou asked this question again.

Zhao Shuo has just defeated the Jin State now, and the military is in full swing, if he takes advantage of the Li Dynasty, he sends troops south, enters Shu, occupies Dali, and opens up the connection with the Li Dynasty, it is not impossible.

"Your Majesty, have you thought about it?" Qin Hui said respectfully. "Why did Zhao Shuo passively launch all the wars after he took control of Chang'an?"

Hearing Qin Hui's question, Zhao Gou was stunned, thinking about it, it was really as Qin Hui asked.

Zhao Shuo conspired with the Zhe family, and after conspiring against Chang'an, he occupied Qinling in the south, reached Fuzhou in the north, controlled Longyou in the west, and rejected Jin and Qi in the east, and then really started various reforms honestly.

It's just that the Great Song Dynasty can't tolerate Zhao Shuo, the Jin State can't tolerate Zhao Shuo, and even the Qi State can't tolerate Zhao Shuo, and in the end, even some nomadic tribes in the northwest can't tolerate Zhao Shuo.

Next, the yellow-headed Uighurs of Longyou attacked Longyou, and the Qi State sent large armies to conquer Zhao Shuo several times. Song Guo was not idle, and sent Yue Fei to stare secretly, waiting for the opportunity, Jin Guo also made a move with Zhao Shuo recently.

But what about the result? All parties plotted several times, but they all failed miserably, but Zhao Shuo became bigger and bigger, and the stronger he became.

Now Zhao Shuo not only destroyed the Qi State and occupied the Qi land, but also obtained a large area of territory north of the Huai River - Dasanguan from the Great Song Dynasty, and the Jin State did not escape the tragic fate, and a large area of territory south of Jizhou and Zhenzhou, and west of Yizhou, Qinshengzhou, and Guihua Prefecture was also taken by Zhao Shuo. Not only that, Zhao Shuokai got the Li Dynasty, a land far south of the Great Song Dynasty.

In addition to the land, Zhao Shuo's army is also doubling and increasing, at first there were only tens of thousands of people, and Zhao Shuo, who was fighting fires everywhere, has now collected more than 200,000 Yuejia troops. The rebel army led by Li Cheng was annexed, and there were also tens of thousands of people. After Li Chao defected to Zhao Shuo, he also had an army of more than 100,000 troops. Fang Qifo's peasant rebel army was also secretly manipulated by Zhao Shuo.

After these thoughts flashed through his mind, Zhao Gou took a deep breath. Zhao Shuo is really vast now, and his soldiers are strong.

Such a Zhao Shuo, he really doesn't want to offend. The territory controlled by Zhao Shuo is required if there is a chance, and it is forgotten if there is no chance.

As long as Zhao Shuo doesn't make a move on Da Song, Zhao Gou already feels that he can be satisfied.

"Your Majesty!" Seeing that Zhao Gou didn't speak for a long time, Qin Hui shouted softly.

"Ugh!" Zhao Gou came to his senses and looked at Qin Hui, and a glimmer of hope flashed in his eyes. "Qin Aiqing, after Zhao Shuo took control of Chang'an, he didn't take the initiative to start a war, do you know?"

"Your Majesty, the minister knows a thing or two." What Qin Hui was waiting for was Zhao Gou's words, and when he saw Zhao Gou asking, he replied hurriedly.

"Then you can tell me why he didn't take the initiative to start the war." Zhao Gou said.

"Your Majesty, according to the minister's understanding, Zhao Shuo has been implementing reforms, and the content of the reforms is very wide, even related to all walks of life......"

Before Qin Hui finished speaking, he was interrupted by Zhao Gou. "Getting to the point."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Qin Hui saluted again. "Chen's research found that Zhao Shuo's reform involves all aspects, and many of them will shake the foundation of the country, that is to say, the smaller the place he controls, the easier it is to achieve reform, and the more places he controls, the greater the resistance."

"Hmph......" After Qin Hui's words were finished, Zhao Gou couldn't help but sneer. Qin Aiqing, according to what you said, why does Zhao Shuo still occupy Qi land, and why do you want the land north of the Huai River-Dasanguan, and the land south of Jizhou, Zhenzhou, Yizhou, Qinshengzhou, and Guihua Prefecture in the Jin Kingdom? ”

"Intimidation, Zhao Shuo is doing this, he is completely intimidating countries." Qin Hui replied.

"Intimidation?" Zhao Gou was confused again.

"Yes, Your Majesty, it is intimidation." Qin Hui said seriously. "Your Majesty, think about it, how did Zhao Shuo's land go."

After a pause, giving Zhao Gou time to think, Qin Hui continued. "All from the country that wants to attack him and destroy him."

When he said this, Qin Hui's voice was very low, because Da Song was also blackmailed by Zhao Gou to take away a large piece of land.

"Do you mean that Zhao Shuo wanted to go all out to reform, but all sides attacked one after another, and he had to interrupt the reform and then fight with all parties, in order to give the reform a stable environment to win, he asked for money after each victory, weakening the opponent?" Zhao Gou said in disbelief.

"Exactly!" Qin Hui said with great certainty. "All the wars in which Zhao Shuo participated were to win a peaceful and stable situation for himself, with the completion of reform as the most fundamental goal."

"Then what does Qin Aiqing want to say?" Zhao Gou was a little confused, talking about Zhao Shuo's borrowing, but now he was talking about Zhao Shuo's reform. That's too far.

"What the minister means is that peace talks, not by the way, Bao Dali." Qin Hui said a strategy that Zhao Gou didn't expect but understood very clearly.

"If I think about it again, you all go down." Zhao Gou didn't give a positive answer, waved his hand, and immediately went to the main hall.
