Chapter 324: Between Giving Up

"Fight back! You must fight back!" On the Eight Treasures Jinluan Hall of the Song Imperial Capital, Sima Ji Khanting of the Military Department was waving a pair of arms like gibbons in front of the ministers, and made a generous statement:

"Every inch of land belongs to our Song Emperor, and if the Chu thief wants to snatch it, we as courtiers will fight with him to the end. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Many radical generals responded loudly and were excited.

Song Emperor Zhao Hao was also very angry: "Ji Aiqing is right, now the land is so expensive, the people of Chu have robbed more than 60 million square kilometers at once, how much money does this have to be? We do business... Ahem"

“... Between our big countries, we must pay attention to manners, we can't be so barbaric, everything is interests, everything can be discussed. What to do, what to steal, what to attack, it is too unethical to do business. "Zhao Hao still hasn't changed his essence as an imperial businessman.

Taifu Palace Beiyu took the lead in agreeing: "My emperor is wise, war is a barbarian thing, everyone is a civilized person, and in-depth consultations should be conducted." The state of Chu is nothing more than coveting the wealth of our Great Song Dynasty, as long as the chips are right, it should be possible to persuade them to go back. ”

"Gong Taifu said it very well! I have decided, so Taifu will personally lead the diplomatic mission to Chudu to negotiate with Emperor Xiang, and be sure to exchange all the land for the minimum price. Concubine Zhuang is still waiting for me in Kunhe Palace, and she will retreat from the ......"

"Wait!" Gong Beiyu's originally pale face turned even whiter: "Your Majesty, it is our courtier's duty to be an envoy to the country and live up to our mission." ”

"It's a pity that the old minister is old and sick, and he can't be driven, Your Majesty, look:" Gong Beiyu pointed to his face:

"Isn't it particularly white?"

"White!"

"Isn't it particularly long?"

"Long!"

"That's right. The old minister was weak. In case he gets sick and dizzy during the negotiation, and adds one or two more zeros to the amount of compensation, the old minister will die and cannot redeem it. ”

There is some truth to that. Zhao Hao was a little hesitant: "What about Gong Aiqing's opinion?"

Gong Beiyu said: "The minister recommended Hu Sanquan, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, as the chief envoy. Hu Shilang is handsome and eloquent, and he is the best candidate for the envoy. ”

Zhao Hao was a little surprised: "Hu Shilang, Taifu and Hu Shilang have different political opinions, and they often make noise in the court, why did they suddenly think of recommending Hu Shilang?"

"The virtuous do not avoid relatives, and they refuse to repay their debts, and that, they do not avoid revenge. Gong Beiyu said generously:

"Now that the country is in peril, how can a minister hinder a virtuous man for the sake of personal grievances?

Hu Sanquan, who had a monkey-faced face and a rat's beard, rushed out of work and said loudly: "Your Majesty, the minister is willing to go." It's just that the minister's ability is limited, and if he pays 500 billion gold coins, he may be able to redeem half of the land, beyond which the minister can't do anything. ”

"Five hundred billion, half of it, is this price still negotiable?" Zhao Hao felt very painful.

Sima Ji Khanting of the Ministry of War could no longer bear it, strode forward, and said angrily: "What is the demand for peace and compensation? The Chu thieves poured the soldiers of the whole country to destroy our Song State. As long as my dynasty is destroyed, all the land and money will belong to the Chu State, what price do you need to talk about?"

Zhao Hao was shocked: "This is reasonable." Just like when HSBC Silver Bank grabbed the market with Royal Silver Bank, it didn't give me face. Later, I directly punished the HSBC owner and annexed the entire HSBC Silver Bank, making a net profit of 100 billion without spending a penny. ”

"I didn't expect that Xiang Yan would also have the idea of having no business, profiteer, profiteer!" Zhao Hao scolded angrily, without the slightest consciousness of being a profiteer.

Ji Hanting said loudly: "Exactly, in the battle of the country, only one side will stop when it completely falls. Now we only use the whole country's troops to fight a decisive battle with the Chu State and wipe out all the invading enemies. There is no other way. ”

"Wipe them all out?" Generalissimo Liu Bufang, who had been silent, suddenly sneered: "The invasion of Chu has reached 10 billion, although it is less than half of our country's standing soldiers, but they are all elite and good at field warfare. ”

"Although our army has an advantage in strength and is fairly well-equipped, it is a pity that it lacks training and has a lax fighting spirit, and it has always been stronger in defense than in attack. ”

"Now the first-line strategic places in Zhengzhou are all occupied by the Chu State, and the Ganshan Plain south of the Huanglong River is not in danger to defend. ”

"Our army rashly counterattacked, and it was a short blow and a long one. ”

"What's more, this time, under the design of the legendary advisor Gu Wen, the Chu army has mastered a mysterious offensive combat technique. According to the front-line rout, there are often Chu troops who ignore natural dangers and the defense of the city wall, and directly appear in the key empty places, beheading our commanders and generals, breaking through the locks and being unable to resist. ”

Speaking of Gu Wen, Emperor Zhao Hao of the Song Dynasty was furious: "This damn Gu Wen, four years ago, Wohu Mountain made me lose 10.2 billion twice, and also lost a 6A scenic spot Yumen Pass, which was nearly 60 billion. ”

"It's even more hateful now, what kind of secret technique did I come up with, making my Great Song lose more than two trillion, it's really an unforgivable crime!"

"If I take it, I must eat its flesh raw, drink its blood, and sleep its skin, which is not enough to eliminate the hatred in my heart. ”

Liu Bufang said calmly: "I heard that Gu Wen offended the three major sects, if it weren't for the half-step immortal Meng Yuanshan to save his life, he would have been captured a long time ago." However, Meng Yuanshan will ascend to the immortal in two years at most, and Gu Wen will not escape death after all. ”

"It's all trivial. The problem now is that with these secret techniques, the Chu army is like a tiger. If we rashly send troops and fight a decisive battle with the Chu army in a place where there is no danger to defend in the plains, we will only be defeated. ”

"In this way, it will shake the foundation of the country even more, and our country will be in danger. ”

Zhao Hao was terrified: "According to Liu Aiqing, how should we deal with it?"

Liu Bufang said categorically: "Give up the Ganshan Plain, retreat to Yinchuan, and defend with all your might with the Huanglong River." ”

"No!" Zhao Hao, Ji Hanting, Gong Beiyu, Hu Sanquan and others shouted in unison.

"Your Majesty, the Ganshan Plain covers an area of nearly 80 million square kilometers, a rich land, and the gross domestic product is nearly 1/3 of the country. ”

"The population of the Gansu-Shaanxi Plain exceeds 30 billion, and the number of soldiers that can fight is nearly 8 billion. Just give up like this, without the attack of the Chu State, my Great Song Dynasty is also greatly injured. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty by no means. ”

Liu Bufang sneered: "If you are willing to give up, you will have to give up." We will fight against the Chu army on the Ganshan Plain, which is a horse and a flat river, and we will only consume all the national strength and national capital, and finally destroy the country and the species. ”

"Isn't Your Majesty good at business, you must know that when you set a loss, you should stop the loss as soon as possible. This is one of them. ”

"The Huanglong River is as dangerous as gold, and our army is good at defense, and it is just to make up for the weaknesses with strengths. This is the second one. ”

"Although we have given up the Gan-Shaanxi Plain, we can imitate what the Chu State did in the border wasteland of South Vietnam, organize a plain travel team to harass the Chu army, and pull the Chu army into the quagmire of the people's war. This can also make it impossible for the Chu army to attack our Huanglonghe Yinchuan defense line with all its might. Thirdly. ”

"What's more, our army is not blindly defensive. Now although the Chu army has won victories everywhere, it has committed the taboo of fighting on two fronts. Just wait until South Vietnam quells the civil strife and launches a counterattack. ”

"The Chu army deployed only 500 million forwards on the southern front, plus no more than 4 billion defenders, could not withstand the all-out attack of South Vietnam. When the southern front is tight, the state of Chu will inevitably come back to help. Our army just took advantage of the situation to pursue, not only to recover the entire territory, but also to enter the Chu realm. This is the fourth. ”

"With these four articles, the best result at that time is to share the Chu State with South Vietnam, and secondly, it can also increase a large area of land, and the power will leap to the top of the three countries. This is the road to a prosperous and strong country carefully planned by Weichen for His Majesty, and I hope Your Majesty will think twice. ”

Liu Bufang made a long speech, which made the birds in the hall silent, and everyone opened their mouths and had nothing to say.

Zhao Hao pondered for a long time, and suddenly slapped the case: "Okay! I can't give up the child and can't trap the wolf! The decree went down, abandoned the Ganshan Plain, and asked the towns on the Ganshan Plain to pack up the fine and soft gold coins, grain and grass, escorted by the regular soldiers, and retreated to the north bank of the Huanglong River. ”

"All local soldiers and auxiliaries are scattered to the countryside in teams of thousands to organize the villagers to launch guerrilla warfare, and I will use the vast ocean of the people's war to completely drown the invaders of the Chu State. ”

"Liu Aiqing, the defense line of the Huanglong River is the last line of defense of our Song Kingdom, please sit in Yinchuan in person, and be sure to ensure that the defense line is stable. ”

"The dream of the Great Song Dynasty is here. ”

Liu Bufang bowed down and saluted: "Obey the emperor's Ming!

The edict of Emperor Zhao Hao of the Song Dynasty made a big uproar in the world. No one would have imagined that Zhao Hao, who has always been greedy for money and lustful and seems to be mediocre, would have the courage to give up nearly half of the country at once and retreat to the Huanglong River.

The Northern Expeditionary Corps of Chu, which was preparing to fight a big battle with the army of the Song State, was preparing to march north to pursue the retreating Song troops, but suddenly received a holy decree ordering the troops to suspend their advance, stick to the line of Zhengzhou, and clear the remnants of the Southern Army of the Song State.

Although the Northern Expeditionary Army did not know what was going on, it could only be respected, so it destroyed the remnants of the enemy on the spot and stabilized the results.

In this way, the tens of billions of troops of the Song State were displayed along the Huanglong River, putting on a posture of defending with all their might. And thousands of miles to the south, the northern expeditionary army of Chu stayed on the front line of Zhengzhou, and also put on a defensive posture.

The Ganshan Plain, which is 80 million square kilometers in the middle, has no danger to defend and no large army to garrison, and has become a big piece of cooked fat. And the two armies of Song and Chu were like two hungry wolves, but they refused to move forward and swallow this borderless land.

All of a sudden, a puzzling scene appeared in the southern part of the Song Kingdom. (To be continued.) )
