Shao Jiu's words had the power of earth-shattering, weeping ghosts and gods, and as soon as he said a word, he only heard a scream. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

"What?"

"It can't be! No way! ”

"Since the founding of the Great Song Dynasty, there has been no such thing as losing the five cities! The Khitans didn't do it, and the Tanguts couldn't do it! You must be lying! ”

This news was so shocking, from Song Shenzong to all the ministers, they were all surprised, their eyes were protruding, and they almost fell to the ground.

They are right, since the establishment of the Song Dynasty, although the Song Dynasty has been pressed and beaten by foreign races, it has not lost the city. Not to mention, this loss is five cities, and it is very difficult to convince Song Shenzong and them.

The most important thing is that in the minds of the monarchs and ministers, the Liao State was strong and the Western Xia was weak, and in the war between the Song Dynasty and the Western Xia, it was always the Song Dynasty that took the offensive and the Western Xia took the defensive. Although it had long been expected that the Western Xia would send troops in a big way, it was absolutely impossible for the Western Xia to capture five cities in one fell swoop.

None of the monarchs and ministers believed it, and they all stared at Shao Jiu with wide eyes.

"Official, this is a military report from Shaanzhou!" Shao Jiu knew that they wouldn't believe it, so he hurriedly submitted the military report and muttered to himself: "Don't say that you won't believe it, even I won't believe it!" If I hadn't read the military newspaper five times in a row, I would have thought it was a lie. ”

Song Shenzong's right hand was quickly stretched out, snatched it up, unfolded it in three or two, skimmed it slightly, his body trembled, and he almost fell to the ground, his face was pale and bloodless. Appropriate, Song Shenzong was still overjoyed, it was only a long time ago, Song Shenzong was like a different person, a little at a loss.

"Boom!" Wang Anshi They don't need to read the military report anymore, they can see from Song Shenzong's expression that what Shao Jiu said is true, they only feel that their hearts are sinking straight down, and the joy of being suitable is gone.

Today, it's really a special day, I just got the news of the big victory in the north, and then I received the news of the defeat in Shaanzhou, this victory and defeat are all unexpected people, the victory is a big victory, and Yan Yun's return is unstoppable. Defeat is a fiasco, once lost five cities, which has not appeared in the history of the Song Dynasty, if the news spreads, it will inevitably cause a great shock, if in the past, it must be a political earthquake, Wang Anshi resigned, the new law is very likely to die.

Even today, with the news of a big victory, it will be extremely difficult to undo this major impact. The Song Dynasty has fought for hundreds of years, and has not lost the city, let alone five cities, which is quite strong.

Quiet!

Deathly silence!

The monarchs and ministers seemed to be struck by thunder and lightning, all of them were stunned, no one spoke, the only sound of heavy breathing of the monarchs and ministers, and their chests rose and fell sharply, as if they were stone carvings.

"Officials, at this time, should come up with a proper way to deal with it. The military situation is like fire, and there is no time to delay! Su Shi was the first to wake up and was busy reminding loudly.

"Oh!" Su Shi's words woke up, and all the monarchs and ministers came to their senses, stroking their chests one by one, and their hearts almost jumped out of their chests.

"Dongpo is right, and now we should come up with a proper solution." Sect Chief Song Shen took a breath, calmed his mind, and said: "The matter has come to this point, any complaints and sighs will not help, we should work together to come up with a proper solution." Although Shaanzhou lost five cities and the Anding Army was wiped out, the Anding Army was worthy of being the elite of the Great Song Dynasty and the Western soldiers, all of them were killed in battle, none of them retreated, and none of them fled, which is commendable! I must praise the Stability Army! ”

Immediately afterwards, Song Shenzong told the story of the defeat of the Anding Army, and the ministers heard that their eyes were red, and tears flowed down their cheeks, and they were all excited.

In the weak years of the Song Dynasty, the western soldiers were outstanding, able to fight and fight, brave and good at fighting, and established immortal feats. Although the Anding Army was defeated, they were still glorious despite the defeat, they did not lose their integrity, they insisted on one last soldier and one pawn!

"Old Qin, restore my rivers and mountains! Blood will not be shed, and there will be no truce! A group of monarchs and ministers gently sang this war song that is still sung in Qinchuan for eight hundred miles, and their eyes reproduced the picture of the Anding army singing the war song and heroically rushing towards the Western Xia army.

They deeply felt the heroism of the old Qin people and the bravery of the Anding Army!

"Liu Changzuo, An Dingjun, you guys are good to go!" Song Shenzong involuntarily knelt down towards the west, touched the ground with his hands, and prayed softly: "You can rest assured, I will definitely avenge you!" ”

"Revenge!" Wang Anshi and the other ministers knelt behind Song Shenzong, weeping and roaring loudly.

Although the Anding Army was defeated, however, its momentum was stirring, and the spirit of the old Qin people who were not afraid of death deeply impacted their hearts, at this moment, everyone was full of anger, eager to kill on the battlefield and avenge the Anding Army.

"Boom! Boom! Boom! Song Shenzong knocked his head three times before he stood up and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, get up, let's discuss how to clean up this situation." ”

At this moment, when the main thing is to solve the problem, although the ministers have thousands of indignant words, they can't help but say nothing, stand up, and under the greeting of Song Shenzong, sit down again, and begin to discuss the current situation.

"Whew!" Sect Chief Song took a breath and forced himself to calm down, then he glanced at the ministers and said, "Right now, the situation facing the Great Song Dynasty is extremely complicated. In the north, Wang Shao and Wu Ji are leading the army to chase the north, and Yan Yun's recovery is imminent, and the situation is very good. In Shaanzhou, it was an unprecedented defeat! Tens of thousands of Anding troops were wiped out, and not a single one survived! The five cities of Anding were lost in one day, and the Xia people were about to attack Guanzhong. One win and one defeat, this is a huge test for the Great Song Dynasty, if it is not handled well, it will cause the Great Song Dynasty to suffer immeasurable losses. What to do with this, you have your own opinions! ”

"Zhuozhou victory!"

"The Great Song Dynasty broke the Liao dog!"

"Liao dog ambushes corpses for thousands of miles!"

"Commander Wu Du is chasing and killing Yelu Hongji thieves!"

Earth-shattering cheers came from outside the palace, and Bianjing was already boiling, however, Song Shenzong did not have a little joy in their ears.

Shaanzhou lost five cities, not to mention the unprecedented defeat. More importantly, Shaanzhou is condescending, overlooking Guanzhong, if the Xixia people use this as a springboard to attack Guanzhong, then Guanzhong will shake, the world will shake, and the good situation of the great victory in the north may be buried, who can rejoice?

"Official, please ask for your life!" Han Qi's white beard fluttered, he stood up first, saluted Song Shenzong, and said: "The minister has been in Shaanzhou for many years, and he is familiar with the situation in Western Xia!" Although the minister is old, he still has the strength to eat a meal, and he is willing to serve the official family in Shaanzhou. ”

At this time, Han Qi was impassioned, excited, and his face was full of red light. First, because he is really willing to contribute to the country. Such a big victory in the north, and the defeat in Shaanzhou, gave him this great opportunity for Western Xia, and it was very likely that he would make a comeback and lead the troops in Shaanzhou. At this time, Han Qi's selfishness was almost none, and some only wanted to contribute to the country.

The second reason is that they have been thinking about it quietly, and they have been recuperating at home for so many years, and they have long wanted to lead the troops again, and now, the opportunity has finally come, can he not be excited?

"The official, the minister recommended Han Qi to lead the soldiers of Shaanzhou!" Sima Guang was the first to agree: "The official family knows that Han Qi has been in Shaanzhou for many years, resisted Western Xia, and has made many achievements, and is called Han Fan with Fan Zhongyan. If Han Qi leads the troops, the situation in Shaanzhou can be stabilized. ”

The reason why Sima Guang echoed was because they were all oppositionists, and if Han Qi made a contribution this time, the power of the opposition would rise sharply. Moreover, this is a favorable opportunity to seize military power, and it cannot be missed. Third, among so many ministers, except for Han Qi, there is no second person who is familiar with Western Xia.

Among so many ministers, Han Qi is a famous general, who looks up to the world, and has been in Shaanzhou for many years, and it is justifiable to send him to lead the troops in Shaanzhou. Although Wang Anshi was worried, he had to agree: "The official, the minister seconded the proposal!" ”

Wang Anshi is the leader of the reform, his opinions almost represent the mainstream opinions, and even he agrees, and Han Qi's leadership is almost a foregone conclusion. Sima Guang and Han Qi glanced at each other, secretly happy, even Wang Anshi agreed, who could object?

What they are most worried about is Wang Anshi's opposition. Before there was no better candidate than Han Qi, Wang Anshi couldn't disagree.

"The minister seconded the proposal!"

"The minister seconded the proposal!"

One by one, the ministers seconded the motion. They all turned to the same thoughts, and among the people here, there was no one more suitable for this position than Han Qi.

Listening to the successive seconding voices, Han Qi's mind became more active. This time, when he went to Shaanzhou, he must fight a few battles, and he can't let Wu Ji and Wang Shao make their war exploits, and he must also share some of his war exploits.

All the ministers agreed, only one person did not speak, this person was Cai Jing, I saw that his brows were deeply locked, and a pair of eyes were squinting and open, and he was contemplating.

In normal times, his actions would never be eye-catching. However, at this time of year, it is too abrupt. All the ministers supported Han Qi to lead the troops in Shaanzhou, but he not only did not support him, but he also looked like a god was there, so it was impossible for people not to be curious.

"Cai Jing!" Sima Guang snorted lightly and said, "In front of the official family, you dare to be so rude, can you be guilty?" ”

"Hmm!" Cai Jing woke up Sima Guang's scolding, raised his eyebrows, and said loudly: "Official, the minister has a play!" ”

"Say it!" Cai Jing is a capable leader in changing the law, with a flexible mind, profound knowledge, and effective work, and even the instrument of Song Shenzong.

"The official, the minister thinks that at this moment, it is not appropriate to send troops to Shaanzhou!" Cai Jing was speechless, he said a word, from Song Shenzong to the ministers, all of them were surprised, looking at Cai Jing, as if he was looking at a monster.

"Cai Jing, are you crazy?" Han Qi was the most annoyed, it was a foregone conclusion that he would return to control the troops in Shaanzhou, how could he allow Cai Jing to add to the chaos, and he roared the most.

knew that he had some selfish intentions, but the monarchs and ministers were very much in favor of it.

"Cai Jing, Shaanzhou was defeated, and five cities were lost in one day, which is extremely critical, if the imperial court does not dispatch troops, Guanzhong will not be guaranteed, and the consequences will be unimaginable!" Song Shenzong's tone was already quite stern.

"Official, please stop being angry!" Cai Jing didn't seem to hear Song Shenzong's anger, and looked confident: "The official family, the minister has a strategy, which can not only relieve the siege of Shaanzhou, but also make the situation of the Great Song Dynasty go further in a good direction!" ”
