The issue of soldiers brought up by accident, since Emperor Daojun opened Chrysostom, there were no objections from the few courtiers present. After all, Zhao'an is also a relatively mature recruitment routine, and there is no need for anyone to be unconventional on this issue, which makes the already reluctant officials even more unhappy. At this time, everyone's full energy was focused on how to deal with the 3,000 cavalry of the Liao State. This is the fundamental reason why Song Huizong came to them.

It is said that a foreign armed force openly ambushed and killed more than 4,000 regular troops on the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, and the imperial court should not hesitate to attack the invaders as punishment. But who knew that the group of monarchs and ministers in front of them seemed to be constipated, tense up and down, but they couldn't let out a fart for a long time.

Even Tong Guan, the main battle faction who has always been ambitious to make a big deal in Liao, is surprisingly calm at the moment, not only restraining the whole army from taking a defensive posture, but also ordering no one to cause trouble. Zhile was overjoyed by Tian Hu, who was about to finish playing, and instantly decided that the most difficult moment had been over, and the next Xia Kingdom was about to rise on the fertile soil of Hedong in the Great Song Dynasty.

"Who can be the envoy of the Manchu Dynasty and the Liao State in the north? Do you have a candidate in your heart? In the silence of the gambling game, it was Huizong who opened his mouth first. No matter how powerful other people are, they are just housekeepers and long-term workers, and the owner who "broke his heart" for the Great Song Kingdom is still him Zhao Ji.

It's just that this trip to troubled waters is obviously not a good errand to brush up on qualifications, and if you don't do it well, you will have to carry the black pot, which will affect your political life. It was not only the old and spicy Cai Jing who kept silent, and did not mention the characters in his pocket at all. Even Duan Chang, who rarely has a say in this kind of matter, bowed his head and remained silent. To say that at this time, it is Zhao Liangsi who is the most relaxed, relatively speaking, the people present are inferior to him, no matter how shameless Zhao Ji is, there are three masters in front of him, and it is not his turn to come forward for this offending thing.

Wang Xiang wanted to pretend to be quails like the three of them, but unfortunately he was born in the Ministry of Officials, and all the officials in the court and the central government had them in his stomach. At this time, when he met Zhao Ji's gaze, he couldn't help but feel empty. But Zhao Ji didn't mean to let him go, Longmu didn't leave Wang Xiang before and after, the latter had no way to retreat, so he could only step forward and say: "Shangshu Zuo Chenghou Menggong is loyal to the country, and he can be an envoy to the Northern Dynasty to question the Khitan betrayal of the alliance!" ”

"The minister seconded the proposal!" Duan Chang, who was still asleep just now, "woke up" just right, and immediately echoed.

Cai Jing still didn't speak, although Hou Meng's guy was notoriously not dealing with him, the official family still supported this person. If Cai Jing was stupid enough to jump into the "fall into the well" at this time, Emperor Daojun would change his mind, but he would help Hou Meng a lot.

"Then wait for Aiqing!" Zhao Ji obviously doesn't have much patience, at this time, as long as someone can help him share his worries, there will be immeasurable Tianzun, let alone others.

Well, the envoys have also been sent, and the conscription has been decided, and Zhao Ji has finally regained a trace of his former demeanor. As for the war in Hedong. The monarchs and ministers are all tacitly acquiescing, pause, pause! It's better than rashly starting a war with Liao and making the situation out of control.

Just when all the ministers were waiting for Zhao Ji to announce the dissolution of the meeting, Tong Guan was the only one present. Seize the opportunity to get yourself rid of the embarrassment of being a human flesh background: "Wechen has something to report!" ”

"Oh?" Zhao Ji thought about calling Zhao Liangsi over, as if he didn't have a chance to speak to others at all, and said with a pleasant face when he saw this, "What's the matter with Zhao Aiqing?" ”

"The twilight country of the Khitan. They did not know how to defend themselves, but instead provoked their neighbors and set up enemies on all sides. It is really the face of the country. The strategy of contacting the Jurchens to destroy Liao when the minister returned to the Song Dynasty has recently been eyebrows! Zhao Liangsi said in a deep voice, with a persistent look between his eyebrows, not at all like an unprepared soy sauce lang.

Cai Jing's slightly closed eyes flashed, and he secretly said in his heart: "In the end, it is Tong Guan's henchman, and he really won't let go of this opportunity!" ”

"What's the eyebrow?" Zhao Liangsi's words unconsciously aroused the interest of Emperor Daojun. Although he didn't dare to start a war with Liao, he was still interested in killing people with a knife.

"Weichen received the news that there are Liao refugees in Dengzhou, Jingdong, who threw themselves into the ......" Zhao Liangsi's eloquence is good, and the prosperity of the Jin Kingdom is not blown out, plus he has always taken the destruction of Liao as his own responsibility, and Zhao Liangsi, who is like a river, not only shocked Zhao Ji, but even Wang Xiang and Duan Chang looked at each other, and after Zhao Liangsi introduced the general situation, he only listened to his last words:

"At present, the fifty-four prefectures of Liaodong have fallen into the hands of the Jurchens. At this time, the Liao State lost hundreds of thousands of troops, and most of its territory in Tokyo Province fell to the Jin State, and even the land of Longxing became the hinterland of the Jurchens...... Your Majesty, since the Liao State dared to meddle in the war in Hedong, why couldn't my Great Song Dynasty use the Jurchens to contain it? If the Jurchens are unstoppable, my Great Song Dynasty can take advantage of the situation to send troops, attack the Jurchens on both sides, divide the Liao land equally, and recover Yanyun's homeland no matter how bad it is. If the Jurchens are powerless, we can still provide assistance, making it an important chess piece to contain the Liao State, and then the opportunity will be in my hands, and we can attack and retreat, and my Great Song Dynasty will be invincible! ”

"Is the news true?" Zhao Ji did not hide the excitement on his face, and his eyes fell on Cai Jing, the number one minister of the dynasty, hoping that he could verify the shocking news he got from Zhao Liangsi.

"The old minister also received a report from the Dengzhou guard, and what Lord Zhao said is basically true!" Cai Jing did not cheat on the things that Zhao Ji was already interested in, and he was the most disdainful of the tricks that might affect him in order to hit his opponent.

"Are the Jurchens really so powerful?" The artist emperor speaks so casually.

"It is said that the lord of Liao once used an army of 700,000 Han to personally conquer the Jurchens, but in the end he ended up fleeing alone......" Zhao Liangsi said this, with a hint of banter on his face.

When Duan Changyan heard this, he gasped, what is the concept of 700,000 people? Even if there are many exaggerated elements in it, the pomp and circumstance of the Liao lord is definitely not small. Hundreds of thousands of people can't beat just 30,000 or 20,000 people, and these Jurchens can't be beaten with iron?

"So what are you waiting for? The Liao people are too busy to take care of themselves, and they dare to meddle in the political situation of our country, can my Great Song Dynasty only spit on himself and sit back and wait for death? Now that the Jurchens of the Jin Kingdom have risen on the side of the Khitan, I will send envoys to contact them! Zhao Ji took the case, and this time he didn't ask anyone's opinion, obviously angry at Liao's rash interference.

"Your Majesty, although the Khitan is rude, it has diplomatic relations with me for more than 100 years in the Great Song Dynasty, and they are about brothers. The Jurchens are rude, they don't know their hearts, and they are afraid that raising tigers will be a problem! "The biggest difference between Duan Chang and Gao Yu is here, the former is a house slave, but he considers himself a minister.

"Your Majesty, after listening to Lord Zhao's words, I should know that the Jurchens are unruly, strong and unruly, the Khitan has been defeated repeatedly, and now it is already in decline, if I live with him, when the two countries border, who can guarantee that the Jurchens will not target the Great Song Dynasty in the future?" Although Wang Xiang is not good at military affairs, he still has knowledge after many years of eunuch sea.

Hearing that the two important ministers opposed him again and again, no, it should be against Tong Shumi's strategy of linking Jin to destroy Liao, Zhao Liangsi immediately retorted: "It's not that we want to join forces to destroy Liao, but that Liao has been aggressive, sending teachers to help Tian Hu, if my Great Song Dynasty doesn't act, wouldn't it be light on the world?" Moreover, the decline and fall of the Liao State is a foregone conclusion, even if my Great Song Dynasty does not intervene, the Jurchens will not stop swallowing and encroaching, if they do not communicate with other countries at this time, the land of Yanyun will be taken by the Jurchens again in the future! At this point, the Yanyun Han people will never be allowed to return to their homeland! ”

Zhao Ji was a little confused by the argument between the two groups of people, he now wants to take advantage of the fire, but he also cherishes his wings, after all, recovering the glory of Yanyun undoubtedly makes him want to stop, but Duan Chang and Wang Xiang's words are not unreasonable, and in desperation, the eyes of asking for help subconsciously fell on the old minister Cai Jing.

"Ahem......" The scheming Cai Jing coughed, and suddenly pulled the topic to the outsider: "Your Majesty, the Goryeo envoy has arrived in Tokyo!" ”

"I know this! is preparing to meet on a later date, what does Aiqing mean? Zhao Ji was a little puzzled.

"The ancients are cloudy, and they are close to each other! The Jurchens arose in the elbows and armpits of the Khitans, and the Goryeo also stood in the elbows and armpits of the Jurchens, and His Majesty and the saints also knew that the Jurchens were united to control the Khitan, and the Goryeo was in case of the Jurchens, but everything was under control! ”

Cai Jing's words suddenly made Zhao Ji's brows stretch, but there was still a trace of doubt in his heart, "The small country of Goryeo, how can you do your best to contain the Jurchens with me?" ”

"Jurchen, Goryeo feud also. In the past, Goryeo refused to even borrow the way for our envoys, so why did they come to pay tribute with great fanfare this time? In fact, the Khitan is no longer able to be relied on, so there is another meaning to find a backer. I want to use it to control the Jurchens, he wants to join me to defend against the Jurchens, and if you hit it off, Your Majesty doesn't need to worry! Cai Jing generally refuses to speak lightly, and as soon as he speaks, Zhao Ji feels that "I have Cai Jing, and the world is worry-free."

Cai Jing's discussion has the wonder of "praying mantis catching cicadas, yellow finches behind", at this time Wang Xiang no longer insisted on his own opinion, but Duan Chang still had questions: "I have heard that the country of Goryeo is poor and weak, how to control the country of tigers and wolves?" ”

"Cai Xianggong is old enough to seek the country's words, and the good heirs are very admired. The Jurchen and Goryeo centuries-old feud, the land of the east and west of Goryeo, is actually deliberately demarcated to resist the Jurchen. The two countries (clans) have been at war for more than 100 years, Goryeo is still established in the world, there must be its uniqueness, Duan Taiwei Shao'an is not impatient, when His Majesty summons the envoy of his country, the truth will naturally be revealed! ”

Although Zhao Liangsi didn't understand why Cai Jing unexpectedly supported Tong Guan's strategy, he still caught the "kindness" shown by the other party in time, which further strengthened Zhao Ji's heart to kill people with a knife and use razing to defeat him.

"Thanks to the good advice of a few Aiqing, I am worthy today! Wang Aiqing, with the highest standard to receive the Goryeo mission, another auspicious day, I want to personally meet the Goryeo ministers! (To be continued......)
