The edict of questioning in the latter week is full of voice, and it is completely the most spy-seeking posture:

The edict started from the Southern Tang Dynasty sending troops to disturb the peace of the world, and counted the "handful of war fanatics" led by Lin Feng who wantonly provoked the relationship between the Southern Tang Dynasty and its neighbors, courted Wu Yue, invaded the Southern Han Dynasty, contacted the Liao State without authorization, and secretly communicated with the rebellious Northern Han Dynasty. For the sake of peace in the world, the Great Zhou, on behalf of all the countries in the world, gave the Southern Tang Dynasty the last chance to choose, and immediately captured Lin Feng and his subordinates and sent them to the Zhou State for a public trial to comfort the countries of the world, otherwise all the consequences will be borne by themselves!

With this ultimatum, the voices above the court against Lin Feng's behavior suddenly became loud and loud, and various prudent measures were introduced one after another, or painstakingly begged the Holy Lord to meet the requirements of the Zhou State, sacrifice Lin Feng alone, and make the entire Tang Kingdom and the world happy; Or it seems that he loyally suggested that the Southern Tang Dynasty implement the "drag" plan, first remove Lin Feng from his post and escort him back to Jinling, so that Zhou Guo would have no excuse to get angry, and other things would be talked about slowly.

However, perhaps inspired by the spontaneous trend of going to Shouzhou in Jinling City, the strong voices of the representatives in the court this time became more intense, and the old ministers such as Situ Zhouzong, Sikong Li Jianxun, and the right servant Sun Sheng all went into battle shirtless, and they were in a hurry to discuss with the weak faction.

Zhou Zong started from the general trend of international influence, and pointed out bitterly that if the Southern Tang Dynasty took down the country's humerus shares just because of a question paper from his country, it would chill the hearts of all the people who were interested in helping the Tang Dynasty prosper, and it would also make all countries in the world believe that the rulers of the Southern Tang Dynasty had no courage and responsibility at all, and from then on, they would regard the Southern Tang Dynasty as a second-rate country, and they would deviate from morality!

Li Jianxun started from the details of the trend of the people in Jinling City going to Shouzhou, and shouted: "Shengdou small people, still know how to dedicate themselves to the country; The ministers of the promotion and fighting, showing the true colors of loyal ministers, is it possible that there are only some people left in my Tang Dynasty who are only afraid of things? What kind of face do we have to face the thousands of people of the Tang Dynasty and the ancestors of the Tang Dynasty? ! ”

Chang Mengxi, the deputy envoy of the privy council, started from Lin Feng's brilliant achievements, and recounted everything that was happening in Shouzhou, pointing out that as long as Lin Feng was given full trust and support in the future battles, maybe a new miracle would be born in Shouzhou, and Datang would step into the position of overlord from now on!

After the battle, Sun Sheng's face was full of short beards like steel thorns, and he questioned the weak faction in the court: "Take 10,000 steps back and say, which of you dares to bet on the old man to guarantee that as soon as Lin Feng is sent over, Zhou Guo will never attack our country again?!" ”

There was a sudden silence in the court, everyone was an old fox who had been up and down in the sea for many years, how could Sun Sheng catch a sore foot on this.

Sun Sheng's spirit became even more agitated, and he raised his arms and shouted: "Today, Sun also imitates the heroic and upright Han Xizai, and shouts here: Kill the obstructor, and the change can be achieved!" Kill those who surrender, Datang will be overpowered! ”

Li Jingsui, the king of Qi, stood up after the most and roared angrily: "If you mess up because of a bullshit document, ruin the good ministers, and chill the hearts of the world's heroes, it is equivalent to surrendering without a fight, and I have no shame to be this marshal of soldiers and horses again!" ”

Li Jing, who was sitting on the dragon chair, had a calm face, thinking back and forth in his heart, thinking that when he first saw Lin Feng, he gave an example of the Three Kingdoms and Eastern Wu, "All the ministers can descend, why should the lord descend?" Thinking of the strong wish he had made to the ancestors of the Li family during this period of time, and then to Lin Feng's unthinkable inventions and invincible achievements, and then recalling the passion of resistance of all the people in Shouzhou City, his mind fluctuated violently like a torrent tide, and he finally took the case: "Datang, Datang, if we want to become a Datang that surpasses the previous dynasty, we must take the momentum and courage to surpass them, I will not take the initiative to bully other countries, and I am not afraid of other countries being overpowered!" From now on, the whole territory will prepare for war, and those who discuss it again will be expelled from the court! ”

At the same time that the Southern Tang Dynasty determined the principle of all-out counterattack, the Later Zhou also held a great debate in the court around whether to send troops to the Southern Tang Dynasty and when to attack the Southern Tang Dynasty.

If it had been placed in the past, the Zhou State and Wu Yue and the Southern Han would attack the small Southern Tang from three sides, and naturally there would have been no worries. But now a new situation has emerged - the northern Han State is about to move, and the urgent military situation that the Northern Liao State was about to send troops but changed the lord has been transmitted, and the court naturally has more cautious voices.

Some of the old ministers who continued from the Later Han Dynasty suggested that the war with the Southern Tang Dynasty might as well be postponed, and that they should first make urgent contact with the Liao State to stabilize the north. Otherwise, the Great Zhou is equivalent to facing three opponents at the same time: Liao, Northern Han, and Southern Tang, and the victory is not so obvious.

Guo Chong (that is, Guo Chongwei, because of the name of the emperor Guo Wei, insisted on changing his name to Chong. He roared loudly in the court: "The steppe barbarians attacked our dynasty twice in three days, but they were all blocked by my northern fortified cities and unparalleled male soldiers, how could they have stabilized?" Now, Lord Yao Hanying is still in Liao, and the enemy army is gathering, what can be done to stabilize it? As for the Northern Han Dynasty, a little scabies, is it worth mentioning? If Xiao Tang in the south can face the attacks of the Three Kingdoms at the same time, but I dare not face three wars, how can he sweep the world in the future? ”

As early as February, Hou Zhou sent Yao Hanying and Hua Zhaoyin to Liao to protest to the north that they had sent troops to the north of Zhou, but Yao Hanying and his people were left behind by the Liao.

Immediately afterwards, Zhao Kuangyin, the head of the eastern and western classes of the forbidden army, who was specially invited to attend the military meeting because of his position as an instructor in the elite army, stood up and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, please forgive Weichen for speaking bluntly. If I can't represent the people of the world to crusade against Lin Feng and others who started a war in vain, it can be described as unkind; If I break the promise of joining forces with Wu Yue and the Southern Han Dynasty, it can be described as unjust; If you are afraid of many opponents, you are not brave; If you can't take action early to defeat Xiao Tang's upward trend, it is unwise! Weichen is not talented, and he is willing to lead the tiger in the army to go first, and clear all obstacles for the army for His Majesty! ”

Zhao Kuangyin, who is twenty-four years old, is dressed all over his body, with bright colors, coupled with his long and strong body, he looks radiant and energetic when he stands there.

"In the end, it is the statement of the fragrant child, which is very heartfelt! According to everyone's discussion, the edict immediately ordered all the armies of the Southern Expedition to prepare in time, and assembled and set off at the southern city of Tokyo on September 20. Xiang Boy led the elite soldiers to set off the day after tomorrow to reconnoiter the enemy situation and sweep away the enemy's scouts! Guo Wei slapped the table and finally gave the order to send troops.

Zhao Kuangyin, who was born in a military family, is also named Zhao Jiuzhong, because he likes to be stinky and handsome since he was a child, he is famous in the army, and is nicknamed "Xiang Boy" by everyone.

Don't look at Zhao Kuangyin, he is very young at this time, but he is already the number one legend in the Great Zhou Army. According to history, Comrade Lao Zhao has been "majestic in appearance and open-minded in appearance" since he was a child, and everyone who sees him praises him as an extraordinary person. ”

For example, when Comrade Zhao Kuangyin was born, the red light shone all over the house, and the strange fragrance did not dissipate after a night, saying that his body was golden and did not retreat for three days. When he grew up, he began to learn to ride horses and archery, and Zhao Kuangyin always surpassed others.

It is said that Zhao Kuangyin once tried to ride a fierce horse, and did not give the horse a halter, when the fierce horse galloped up the ramp of the city tower, his head slammed into the city wall, and when everyone thought that his life was not guaranteed, he slowly got up from the ground, continued to chase the fierce horse and jumped on the horseback again, and there was no injury at all! There is also a legend that Zhao Kuangyin also saw sparrows fighting outside the house in Dr. Han Lingkun's room, and they competed to catch sparrows to play, but as soon as they came out of the house, the house collapsed, and magically avoided a difficulty.

In the early years of the Later Han Dynasty, Zhao Kuangyin lived in a temple in Xiangyang when he traveled around, and an old monk saw him, and immediately funded all his belongings to him, and pointed out that as long as he went north, he would have adventures.

Listen to people's persuasion and eat well! Zhao Kuangyin, who had been going north, defected to the account of Guo Wei, then the privy envoy, in the first year of Qianyou of the Later Han Dynasty (948 AD), and accompanied the team to conquer Li Shouzhen.

Hearing Guo Wei's orders, many generals were excited and agreed with a bang. At this point, the huge war machine of the Zhou State officially began to operate!
