Chapter 707: Goryeo Dispatches Troops

Some courtiers are sincerely thinking about the country and the people.

Once there is a war, the consumption of the treasury will be very large, and these consumption will eventually be passed on to the people, so that the people will suffer more and more, which is not what the civil officials want to see.

There are also those who stand up purely just to pat Li Qi's sycophants, which is also the basis for some officials to be promoted, that is, to hold a thigh and not let go, so that they can rise to the top and become a top courtier.

In the end, the officials who stood up against the war represented the merchants, and they also heard that Su Shi had good things in his hands, and they were thinking about how to seek their own benefits from it. And once the war with Su Tianwang's army starts, there will be many more difficulties and obstacles in thinking about commercial cooperation.

Who said that only Han women did it.

Let's see, there are a lot of female cadres in Goryeo, and there are also many high-ranking female cadres.

These people, led by Li Qi, formed a great force, and the matter of sending troops was originally discussed, but it became noisy and noisy.

Da to Lu, in short, state affairs, Zheng Toe, who is in the first class, is a famous minister of Goryeo, and it is he who assisted Wenzong to create the so-called prosperous era of Wenzong in Goryeo in the future.

The official position is higher than that of Li Qi, but because the Zheng family's background is worse than that of the Li family, at this moment, he has a higher official position, and he is faintly suppressed by his subordinates.

The civil officials couldn't count on it, so Wenzong could only focus on the column of military generals, and then his eyes fell on the head of the military generals, Yin Yuhu, the general of the Goryeo Dynasty.

The Yin family began to assist the Wang family many years ago, and the eleven generations have been passed down, and the Yin family also enjoys a high influence in the army.

When foreign affairs are undecided, Yin's right to speak often becomes extremely heavy.

In history, the Yin family became more and more powerful, and finally attracted the jealousy of King Wenzong, who had become stronger with his intentions. After he mastered all the power of the DPRK, the first to solve the problem was the Yoon family, so as to take back the military power in his hands, assist him in controlling the entire situation in Goryeo, and finally escort the reform.

If Su Shi came to Goryeo ten years later, it would be really difficult to conquer this place. At that time, he will face Wenzong, who has centralized power in the military and government, and at that time, even if he can defeat him, he will need to pay a lot of price.

But now, Wen has the Li clan to make trouble, and Wu has the Yin clan to hinder him, and Wen Zong is far from being as powerful as in history.

Wenzong's gaze seemed that General Yin Yuhu, who was watching the play, knew what to say. "Your Majesty, the ministers think they should send troops. Bukcheongseong is the Bukcheongseong of Goryeo, and anyone who occupies it for whatever reason is a provocation to Goryeo, and it is necessary to kill it quickly. In this way, we can show the strength of our Goryeo, and only then can those who want to fight our ideas become honest, and only then can we truly gain the respect of others."

As a military general, if you don't fight, how can you show your ability?

If you don't fight, where can you get military merit?

If there is no war, where will the benefits come from?

For the sake of himself and his family, Yin Yuhu is bound to support this battle.

As Yin Yuhu stood up, Zheng Toe immediately expressed his support. The opinions of the heads of civil and military affairs have been unified, and even if Li Qi and others are still opposing, it can no longer change the fact that Goryeo sent troops.

"Okay, that's the case, I will order the general to be the general of Pingbei, responsible for sending troops to recover Beiqingcheng. The other yamen must make preparations for the supply of grain, grass, and ordnance to ensure that the first battle is decided and raise the prestige of our Goryeo state." Wen Zong was waiting for this sentence, and immediately announced the final result.

The main battle faction was victorious, and after the next dynasty, many officials became busy. Li Qi, who failed in the struggle, was so angry that he didn't even go to the yamen, and went back to his mansion directly.

As soon as Li Qi entered the mansion, he went straight to the backyard, came to the small courtyard where his study was located, looked at the young man in front of him with a sullen face and said, "Mr. Meng, I'm sorry, I couldn't stop the imperial court from sending troops."

"Hahaha, Lord Li doesn't have to blame himself, the Goryeo court will send troops, which was originally expected by my king. Even if they want to go to war now, they will have to fight it, and only when they are hurt will they know that it is okay to be afraid."

The person who spoke was none other than Meng Youde, the person in charge of Long Yin.

He had already come to Kaijing one step ahead of Su Shi's order, and spent a lot of money to get in touch with Li Qi.

The relationship is just a word, and the relationship between them really becomes harmonious, or because Meng Youde took out the important news that Wang Hui of Wenzong wants to attack the Li family.

With the power of the system, Su Shi, who knew what major events Wen Zongzhi had done, told Meng Youde about Wang Hui's attack on the Li family through the walkie-talkie.

Meng Youde completely trusted Su Shi, and made things clear when he met Li Qi for the first time. At that time, Li Qi naturally wouldn't believe it, thinking about how much their Li family had contributed to Goryeo, and even without their support, Wang Hui would not have been able to ascend to the throne smoothly.

It's just that what Meng Yongde said was so conclusive, and he didn't leave after he finished speaking, he stayed in the Li Mansion as a hostage, and he waited for the other party to verify it, if this matter was false, he would dispose of it.

Meng Youde's attitude and self-confidence made Li Qi mutter. With the idea of being cautious and not making a big mistake, he set out to try.

First of all, he spent a lot of money to buy off the chamberlain of Wenzong in the palace, and the result was really unfavorable to himself, saying that Wang Hui would always secretly meet Lu Zhengtoe, but what was discussed was unknown to outsiders.

If it is to discuss government affairs, even if he is not present as the deputy prime minister, there is no need for Wenzong to hide from himself.

Only things that are unsightly will avoid others.

But that alone doesn't mean anything. Li Qi was once again tempted, and put forward several recommended books. The recommended people are either from the Li family, or they are extremely close to the Li family, and they are also arranged for important positions in the court or real power positions of local officials.

But all the recommendations were not approved and approved.

Although Wenzong took the initiative to find Li Qi afterwards, indicating that it was the big one who opposed Lu Zhengtoe, these appointments had to be postponed. At the same time, Wenzong also said that he could let Li Qi and Zheng Toe have a good relationship first, so that the next recommended appointment should be smooth. Look at the book

Li Qi did not give up, he did what Wenzong said, and after meeting Zheng Toe, the other party actually proposed a number of important candidates, which probably means that the appointment of these people recommended by him must be approved first, and he will consider not blocking the appointment of the candidates recommended by Li Qi.

Look at the people recommended by Zheng Toe, all of them are people who are not on good terms with the Li family.

There are even some officials who have been suppressed by the Li family. And if these people are allowed to take positions and occupy important positions, then the influence of the Li family in the court will undoubtedly be greatly weakened, so it is strange that his next recommendation and appointment can be passed.

Thinking about it, since Wenzong is going to attack the Li family, how can he still give him the opportunity to expand his strength?

The so-called bowing to Zheng Toe first is just to increase the strength of the imperial power and create a better environment for the Li family to be overthrown in the future.

Finally seeing everything, the Li family began to be disappointed in Wenzong, and they valued Meng Youde even more.

If this person hadn't told him everything in advance, I am afraid that he would have been kept in the dark, until one day when Wenzong attacked him from the Li family, he still didn't know it.

It can be said that Meng Youde is the benefactor of the Li family. In addition, he represents the Dragon Heavenly King, and also admits that if the Dragon Heavenly King rules Goryeo on the day, he will definitely regard the Lee family as the first family of Goryeo and give various benefits.

Not only promised, Meng Youde also took practical actions, and a full 500,000 taels of silver were moved into the Li Mansion, which was the meeting gift of the Dragon Heavenly King.

It was money again, news again, and promises for the future, Li Qi completely turned to work for Gao Nu and was used by the Dragon Heavenly King.

That is, he was already a person of the Dragon Heavenly King, and seeing that Wenzong was going to send troops to the Dragon Heavenly King, of course Li Qi would oppose it. I just didn't expect it to be stopped.

Judging from this matter, their Li clan is really not as good as before, if it was in the past, as long as he stood up and said that he was against it, then the matter would be tantamount to no negotiation.

did not complete the task, Li Qi felt ashamed of Meng Youde, and his posture was very low when he talked at this meeting.

Meng Youde didn't have the slightest sense of blame, on the contrary, he looked very understanding of Li Qi, and then said that the Dragon Heavenly King's army was strong, and finally put forward his own request, that is, he hoped that Li Qi could do something about the logistics of the departure army.

Since ancient times, fighting a war is a money-making principle, which is an eternal truth.

Just like Ming Taizu Zhu Chongba, the reason why it took several years to pacify the rebellion in the north was because of the lack of grain and grass, and it had to be delayed again and again.

Goryeo is not like Su Shi, it has a system that can ignore the matter of grain and grass. That is, whether the army is sent out or not and whether the grain and grass are supplied or not often determines whether the morale and combat effectiveness of the army are strong.

Meng Youde made a request, and in order to prove that he was a useful person, Li Qi immediately agreed. Later, he secretly contacted the officials loyal to the Li family, many of whom were still in important positions, and it was not a problem to find some trouble in logistics and grass.

Yin Yuhu was completely unaware of this matter, and what he was thinking about now was to lead a large army to quell the rebellion of the Dragon Heavenly King.

This was the first large-scale use of troops after Wenzong ascended the throne.

If things are done well, it can prove that the Yin clan is strong, so there is no fear that Wenzong will not reuse himself, and the Yin clan's position will be as solid as a rock at that time.

With this kind of thought, Yin Yuhu this time transferred all the elite of the Goryeo Dynasty, with 30,000 cavalry, 50,000 infantry, and 200,000 people to the outside world.

Speaking of this claim, it is really varied, there is everything.
