Volume 12 A Thousand Autumns Requires a Hundred Battles Chapter 1146 National Policy (2)

Emperor Chengwu Long Yan Dayue, raised the wine and said with a smile: "The compliments of several Aiqing are much more than what others say, and several Aiqing are all pillars of the country, and I am fortunate to have it, come, meet and win for my monarchs and ministers, and drink to win ......."

The monarchs and ministers drank respectfully and ate a few mouthfuls of food.

"Xixia is the trouble of my Great Qin's henchmen, living behind me, watching at all times, and now sending envoys to be ministers, it can be seen that there is no one in the court...... Now, there is a lot of discussion in the DPRK and China, and there is no definite opinion, the general is back in Beijing, and he should have rested for a few days, but since he came to the mansion today, I want to ask, what advice does Aiqing have on this matter? ”

This is the proper meaning of the title, Chong Sui and Fang Qian will not be surprised, Tubo, the envoy of Western Xia, has been staying in Beijing for a long time, making a lot of noise in the court, boiling, if the emperor Xi à visited the Dingjun Marquis Mansion late at night, did not mention this matter, it is called strange.

However, compared to Fang Qian, Chong Sui had a conversation with Zhao Shi before, and knew that the general had already made up his mind.

And Fang Qian here, but he couldn't help but prick up his ears, hold his breath and condense, as the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, he has the right to discuss things in the Chinese book, at this time, he can listen to a word and say a word, and when he speaks in the Chinese book, he will have the confidence, maybe it will have a great impact on the future career, in the words of later generations, it is to stand in the right camp, and he is naturally one step ahead of others.

He will definitely not let go of such convenience.

Zhao Shi pondered for a while, organized his words, in the matter of Western Xia, he had talked with several generals in the army, and his thoughts had gradually matured, but compared with these old departments, the words in front of His Majesty the Emperor must be organized more clearly......

Speaking of which, there has been a lot of foreshadowing with the previous correspondence with the emperor, and the emperor is probably very clear about his intentions.

After a while, Zhao Shicai said slowly: "In the opinion of the ministers, the Western Xia people are not credible, and I am afraid that the princes of the court and the central government also understand it, after all, our Great Qin and Western Xia have been dealing with each other for too many years. ”

In just one sentence, Fang Qian heard some flavors, and interjected: "Calling the ministers and paying tribute, ceding the territory, even if it is not trustworthy, it is really exciting." ”

Zhao Shi nodded, and continued: "It is precisely in this way that we should look more at the future, the Tangut people are not strong, and the country has survived so far, relying on such means, rats at both ends, when the power is weak, when it is strong, it is called a minister, when it is strong, it is to attack the territory, Khitan, Jurchen, when the two countries are prosperous in the north, the Tangut people have the act of being vassals, but the Khitan, when the Jurchens are prosperous and declining, the Tangut people are rebellious, hideous, such a country of the Hu people, without faith, relying on the convenience of the location, swaying from side to side, only to enjoy the country until now. ”

"My Great Qin now, has the momentum of dominating the world, but with all due respect, unifying the Central Plains is not a day's work, regardless of the Later Zhou, the Southern Tang Dynasty, although the army is weak, but it has the merit of educating the people, the people's hearts are attached, and I regard my Great Qin as a tiger and wolf, waving troops to attack it, or it can be fast for a while, but if you want to pacify the Central Plains, it is a long way to go......"

He then nodded and said: "This is a far-sighted statement, the general first map of the river, the east of the river, I am afraid that it is the map of the north of the people of the people easy to attach, and from the army in these years, the general's vision, is really admirable, the north is located in a few important towns outside, the rest, are all looking at the wind and falling, taking it is flat, flat is attached, so light, compared with Heluo, it is really nothing to say." ”

There is naturally water in his words, even if it is Zhao Shi himself, when he crossed the Yellow River north and captured the river, it was purely helpless, and he was able to get to this point, but it was just due to the situation.

But then again, since it has come to such a point, and the great general Zhao Shi has indeed opened and closed in the north, creating a feat that no one can compare, then, no matter what he says at this time, no one can refute it.

Or the old saying, the times create heroes, in turn, but it is the heroes who create the times, this is the right principle of the world, no one can look at it for ten years and a hundred years, the heroes and heroes of the world, but they are all created by mistakes.

Zhao Shizhen continued without blushing: "Yes, the north is easy to take, the Central Plains is difficult to take, and the conquest of the Central Plains must take a lot of time......

Emperor Chengwu had been pondering, and at this time Fang Zizi said thoughtfully, "If you look at it this way, if you allow Xixia's invitation...... I'm afraid I'm going to leave a big trouble......"

"Your Majesty is wise."

Zhao Shi tapped the table and said, "In Weichen's view, the attack on the Central Plains will be counted in years, and the loss of national strength will be countless, and the most energy-consuming thing is that I am afraid that it is still stable in the hearts of the people in the place where it is based, and Henan, Lianghuai, and countless strong cities, when the time comes, the time and place are favorable, and they are not in me. ”

"And in the north, the Mongolian tribes are fighting with the female truth, within a few years, I am afraid that there will be a result, when the time comes, there will be enemies in the north, and the Central Plains will be fighting endlessly, and if you are not careful, the consequences are unimaginable."

"And after Xixia lived on my side, after going to Xiliang Mansion, how could I be willing? It's better to take this opportunity to pull it out in one fell swoop and eliminate my worries, how can I move for the small profit in front of me, leaving such a confidant trouble, so that I can't do my best? ”

At this time, he was excited, but Fang Qian's face was pale, at this time, he really understood the intention of this great general, in the end, he was a civil servant, and he was not sensitive to military matters.

Therefore, I felt that after the general attacked the northern land and made meritorious contributions, he suddenly planned to wave his troops to Western Xia, which was too sudden, and it was when Western Xia sent envoys to Great Qin......

Thinking of this, he was suddenly surprised, the Xixia people sent envoys to Daqin at this time, I am afraid that someone will see the general's intentions clearly, and under fear, it will be like this.

Many people in the DPRK and China are afraid that they have reversed cause and effect......

At this time, Zhao Shi had already increased his weight again, "Your Majesty don't worry, Weichen has been planning for several years, and now he has nine points of certainty, and the remaining one point is just that Western Xia has a favorable geographical advantage, and he may be able to survive for a while under the front of the army, I am afraid that he will not be able to fight." ”

At this time, Emperor Chengwu finally spoke, but he could indeed see that even at this point, His Majesty the Emperor also had doubts, "Since Aiqing has planned so far, I am also at ease...... However, Aiqing still has to tell me how to fight this battle, so that I can stay in Chang'an City and be a little less anxious, right? ”

This is purely a joke, the worries of His Majesty the Emperor, the worries of some courtiers, and the scruples of Zhao Shi here are actually the same, and the final joint is actually still on the Eastern Army......

Zhao Shi smiled, the more calm and determined, at this time, all scruples must be put aside, otherwise, the slightest hesitation will be revealed, but it can only increase the worry of the emperor.

"Your Majesty, Wechen has left the general Mu Huali in the grassland, as long as His Majesty nods, in the spring of next year, Mu Huali will lead tens of thousands of cavalry from all parts of the grassland to attack the south of the Xixia River, according to Weichen's estimates, at the end of next summer, Mu Huali will lead his troops to a decisive battle in the left side of the Western Xia Army, Qu Yechuan Zuojin, even if he does not win, he can drag the left side of the Western Xia......"

"In the early summer of next year, you can edict Tubo to return to the king of righteousness, lead the troops out of the Kara River, go north to attack Xiliangfu, and then go north, attack Ganzhou, Suzhou, Guazhou and other places, if the troops are not enough, you can make the Qingyang Mansion town army help, before the beginning of autumn next year, it will be the Yumen Pass of the right wing of the Western Xia."

"The Yanzhou Town Army, at the end of the summer next year, will send troops to attack Suizhou, Longzhou and other places, go straight to the Wuding River, threaten the left side of the Western Xia Army, by the way, echo the forbidden army in front of the palace, and the Qingyang Town Army will attack Xiao Pass, open the Xixia portal, and wait for Xiao Pass, Yanzhou Town Army may go north, capture Xiazhou, Yinzhou and other important towns in Western Xia, and attack the Right Wing Military Division with Mu Huali on both sides."

"Or you can also turn to the southwest, and the other two along the Hulu River to the north, attack Weizhou, meet under the city of Lingzhou, Lingzhou, Xingqing Mansion is in front of you, at that time, the Western Xia is full of war, there is no way to help, there is no way to defend, the party and nobles, if you don't want to be captured by me, you will inevitably flee to the northwest."

"Northwest of Xingqing, all Gobi Desert, the ancestors of the Xixia people rose here, and should be destroyed here, or there can be one or two lucky people, flee to Heishui, and at that time, my Great Qin soldiers are prosperous, just need to send a message to the Western Liao, if the Khitan people do not give it up, it should leave the best excuse for my Great Qin to destroy the Western Liao in the future......"

With such ambition, such courage, and such a well-thought-out arrangement, those who are well versed in military affairs are completely submissive.

In that year, hundreds of thousands of troops attacked the summer, and the armies of all roads were elite soldiers, and the general strategy set was to advance together and attack Lingzhou.

The left route army was under the Xiliang City, although it dragged the right wing of the military division, but under the Xiliang City, it was dragged for several months, and the middle route army, first defeated in Xiaoguan, and then stopped in Weizhou, and reluctantly came to Lingzhou City, which was at the end of the strong crossbow.

And the Yanzhou Town Army, as the most elite part of Great Qin at that time, defeated the Left Wing Military Division of Western Xia by the Wuding River, and won countless victories, but ...... After that, over the mountains and mountains, in the continuous harassment of the Western Xia people, the grain and grass were poor, and the drinking utensils were lacking, and before they reached the city of Lingzhou, they had collapsed.

The right army was defeated, and the middle route army under Lingzhou City also fled south in a rout, and the most miserable was actually the left route army, the news was not clear, and there was hesitation, and finally in the siege of the Western Xia army, almost the whole army was wiped out under the Xiliang City.

That defeat taught the Qin people a painful lesson, and after that, they were strictly defended, and for almost decades, no one dared to mention the capture of Western Xia.

Now, the strategy of the great general Zhao Shi is almost the same as it was back then, but whether it is military strength or the overall situation, it has not yet been fought, and it already makes people feel that the victory is in hand.

In the final analysis, the general trend has been achieved, and the battlefield has been contested, but it has fallen behind, and unconsciously, the Western Xia people have been attacked on all sides, but Daqin can calmly choose the place to attack.

Those who are good at fighting have no outstanding achievements, which is probably the reason why famous generals are famous generals......
