Chapter 441: Clever Tongue Zhang Jian

His master and Su Shi are not on good terms, and this Bao Zheng is good friends with Su Shi. With this, Gu Jin is his natural opposite.

In addition, this time he participated in the governor's political affairs, and Song Qi, the third envoy and the secretary of the household department, also did not support sending troops. He thinks that the situation of the Great Song Dynasty has just improved, and there is a surplus in the treasury, and what should be done now is to expand the results of the war and increase the foundation of the Great Song Dynasty, instead of thinking about going to war when you have money, in this case, how much money is enough?

Song Itch expressed his attitude, and the attitude of the entire household was also there. Now that Gu Jin has stood up against Bao Zheng's proposal of Chen Bing's border, it is logical.

"Yes, Lord Bao, there are border troops on the border, and they are there, which is enough to ensure safety, so there is no need to send a large army to garrison the border areas, in case this move arouses the vigilance of Western Xia and makes them slow down the time to rush to aid Liao, and they are blaming it back, I am afraid it will not be good."

Following Gu Jin, it was the privy envoy Wang Deyong who stood up, and he was one of Bao Zheng's current bosses.

The Privy Council is not only one privy envoy, just like there is more than one prime minister of the Great Song Dynasty, there is one in the Western Army, and there is also a privy envoy in Bianliang City, he is Yan Shu, just because the other party is still Tongping Zhangshi, that is, one of the prime ministers, so he usually does not care much about the affairs of the Privy Council.

Wang Deyong was not very confident in the first place, the more he understood the situation of the Song army, the more he thought that the Great Song Dynasty would not be the opponent of the Liao people, and often once a big war was about to break out, he was always worried that he would lose the battle and hurt the foundation of the Great Song Dynasty.

But it was precisely because of his caution that he was favored by Zhao Zhen, and he didn't want to appoint a belligerent privy envoy, in that case, I was afraid that the Great Song Dynasty would really not be at peace.

The official family values it, and even has a faint sense of support, and Wang De is still very comfortable with this privy envoy. But since Bao Zheng came, as one of his deputies, he has repeatedly contradicted himself, and now he has openly revealed this point in the court, and he is a little angry.

Those who don't know are afraid that they still think that they are unable to govern their subordinates.

Following Gu Jin and Wang Deyong, some other ministers, including Wen Yanbo's family, also stood up to accuse Bao Zheng.

On the other hand, on Bao Zheng's side, Fu Bi did not go to the court because of illness, and Jia Changchao, who originally supported him, saw that the situation was not right, and began to pretend to be deaf and dumb; Han Qi wanted to say something, but seeing that the general trend was like this, if he stood up, not only would he not be able to solve the problem, but he was afraid that he would make the official family angry, but he would severely punish Bao Zheng, so he could only remain silent.

Above the court, there are also the imperial historian Zhou Shushan and the privy deputy to Cheng Tang Ke, they are all Su Shi's people, and they can also be said to be people from King Jing's line. But before the small court meeting, Su Shi told them not to participate in this matter, no matter what others do, he doesn't have to express his position.

After greeting each other in advance, the two naturally did not stand up as targets.

Su Shi is also worried, in case Bao Heizi really stands up, the official family may not be able to do anything to him, but it is really difficult for others to say.

In this way, Bao Zheng was left standing there and being accused, I don't know, I think he made a big mistake.

"Hey."

With a sigh, Bao Zheng didn't say anything, but took a step back and returned to the ranks of courtiers to stand still.

Bao Zheng thought that he was just a kind reminder, but he didn't expect that these ministers didn't even have the courage to send troops to their own borders, so it was even more impossible to point to them to take advantage of this battle.

After there were no other voices in the court, Zhao Zhen also made a decision to be a bystander, watching Liao, Mongolia and Western Xia fight, and Da Song to be a passerby.

It can also be called - sit and watch the opponent die.

But who knows who is the opponent?

......

Liaodi, Dongshengzhou.

After the defeat of the Liao army, this became the front line, just outside Dongshengzhou, where 40,000 iron cavalry Chen soldiers were barbarian.

The barbarian Meng won the battle, and some of the small tribes who originally wanted to watch the Kaqi tribe make a fool of themselves instantly sobered up. It turned out that the invincible Liao people were so vulnerable.

It seems to be a human nature to get cheap when there is one.

In a short period of time, Manmeng gathered another 30,000 iron horsemen, and at this time he was coming in the direction of Dongshengzhou, and he had the idea of biting off a piece of meat on Da Liao's body.

The barbarian Meng was so brave that it greatly surprised the Liao people. Liaoxing Sect Yelu Zongzhen immediately convened the ministers to discuss the matter and quickly formulated measures.

On the military side, 200,000 troops were again mobilized to rush to the place where they were connected to Mongolia to prevent them from penetrating deep into Liaodi. At the same time, the rear is also rapidly mobilizing, and it is expected that at least two to three hundred thousand troops will be mobilized to participate in the war.

In other aspects, Zhichen Zhang Jian once again became an envoy and went to Dongshengzhou to talk with Meng.

Even if they can't persuade Mongolia to withdraw their troops, they can at least buy some time and strive for more opportunities and advantages for the convergence of the Liao army.

It's just that no one thought that the next Zhang Jian would bring great news to Liao.

It is said that after Zhang Jian received the order, he came all the way, and finally arrived before the barbarians were about to attack Dongshengzhou, and soon went out of the city to meet with Zhebu, the general of the Kaqi tribe.

Before, he was just the first warrior of the Kaqi tribe, a member of a small and medium-sized tribe with a territory of less than 100 miles, but now he has become a barbarian general, and now he has defeated the Liao army that has been pressed on his head for many years.

In a large yurt room, Zhebu sat high on the top, looking at the Liao envoy Zhang Jian with contemptuous eyes, with a sneer in his eyes.

In the face of Zhebu's deliberate pressure, Zhang Jian just smiled, not thinking at all, but hugged his fists and said: "General Zhebu is indeed a natural fierce general, Zhang Jian admires." But do you really think that if we lose Da Liao once, we will lose a second time? Or do you really think that with your 40,000 Mongolian horses, you can step into the hinterland of Daliao? ”

"Can the general know that my great Liao is like a cloud, and his troops are even more than millions, even if one person spits foam, can he drown the Mengqi?"

As soon as he came up, Zhang Jian didn't mean to show weakness, even if Zhebu already looked like he was going to kill in his eyes, he still didn't retreat half a point.

A good messenger must not be coerced under any circumstances.

If you coax, it's tantamount to failure.

Zhang Jian knows this truth very well, so after they met, they were full of momentum, just telling Zhebu, you just took the lead, and you won a game by surprise, but once our Da Liao gets serious, then I don't know who wins and who loses next.

"Why, I thought we were going to be scared of you." Jebu had just won the battle, and he was full of momentum, and of course he would not back down because of these words.

"No, it's not that any of us are afraid of whom, it's just that there is no need to fight between us." Zhang Jian said as soon as he saw that it was good.

"What do you mean?" Zhebu was just a reckless man, and he didn't understand what Zhang Jian meant, so he had to move his gaze to the left and look at a middle-aged Mongolian man beside him.

The middle-aged Mongolian man's name is Lakshen, and he can't see much of the fierce aura of the Mongolian people on his body, on the contrary, he still has an elegant air on him.

This is also one of the few people in Mongolia who really reads. This person has been to the Great Song Dynasty and also to the Great Liao, has seen a lot of the world, and has a wide range of knowledge.

Rakshin had some skills, so the patriarch Uzhige and the elder Hatu asked him to be a military advisor to Jeb.

He is not needed to fight a war, but when it comes to coming up with ideas and formulating policies, it is necessary to take him as the master.

Of course, Lakshin is not a member of the Kaqi tribe, he is not a descendant, and Jebu can or may not listen to his ideas.

Now Jeb looked at him, obviously thinking of him coming out to speak. Rakshen nodded with a smile, then looked at Zhang Jian and asked, "Da Liao envoy, if you have any ideas, you might as well say it directly." ”

Zhang Jian also saw that this Lakshin seemed to be very important, and he seemed to be a smart person.

If a smart person is good, he likes to deal with smart people. "Haha, I don't know what to call this one."

"Rakshen."

"Disrespectful, disrespectful." Zhang Jian naturally hadn't heard of this name, but he still hugged him with a fist to show respect. Then he said: "Our meaning is very simple, instead of us fighting and losing each other, it is better to join forces to fight others, and the benefits will be more in comparison." ”

"How do we join forces?" Lakshin pondered for a moment, then asked.

"Quite simply, we are going to fight. Find a new enemy to fight. Speaking of which, you Mongolian people just want to be self-governing, then good, we agreed, and in the future, the Mongolian land will be owned by the Kaqi tribe, and the edict of our Great Liao Emperor will be sent back. But with all due respect, your Mongolian strength is still too small, just like the Western Xia, in the local battles, you may be able to win, but if you really fight a war to destroy the country, how long can you hold on? ”

"How much iron do you have to splurge?"

"Without iron weapons, there are not enough weapons, and even decent bows and arrows cannot be made, so how can we deal with the start of a big war?"

"How much food do you have to eat?"

"If there is no food, will the soldiers go hungry to war?"

"How much of your population can sustain?"

"If there are only 108,000 horses, then forget it. Because whether it is our Great Liao or the Song Dynasty, as long as you want to, you can mobilize millions of troops in a short period of time. When the time comes, even the tactics of beating the sea of people can drag you to death. ”

asked three questions in a row, and didn't even need the other party to answer, Zhang Jian gave an explanation himself. And after saying this, a smile suddenly appeared on his face, and he shouted outside the tent, "Someone, bring things up." ”

Soon, two Liao soldiers with a Mediterranean head carried a wooden box that was not very big and walked into the big tent and put it next to Zhang Jian.

Zhang Jian was not polite, and opened the wooden box in front of Jebu and Lakshen, revealing kernel tea, burnt knives, cigarettes, and some good quality salt.

Some people died, but not completely......
