"Pan Qing, how did you know that the Northern Song Dynasty would not really raise troops to the south?"

"On the Holy Side, these days, the people from the Han Xiang Secret Investigation Institute entered the Song Realm and found that there was something strange about the Song soldiers."

When Li Xiang heard the word "dark courtyard", he remembered that when Li Jing, the lord of the central government, was in power, he set up a dark courtyard to investigate the military situation of the enemy country.

As the saying goes, knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent can survive a hundred battles, but it is a pity that the secret inspection institute during the reign of Yuanzong Li Jing was only used to obtain secret reports on the military intelligence of neighboring countries.

Although the neighbors were cut off and begged for mercy, in the face of the Northern Zhou, where the armaments and soldiers were more powerful, they could no longer be invincible, and of course, it may be that this secret investigation institute did not dare to go to the north at all.

"Li Chongjin rebelled, and Zhao Kuangyin will definitely pay attention to the rebel land in order to avoid long nights and dreams.

That's why the minister dared to release a spy when the saint came to the north. ”

Han Xizai, who was beside him, heard Pan You's words, and talked about why he sent troops to the Song Realm.

"This spy has indeed made a meritorious effort, and I will not be stingy with rewards.

But Han Xiang, let's say that the secret agent found anything suspicious in the Song Realm? ”

"On the sage, this time I went north and found that after Li Chongjin opposed the Song Dynasty, Zhao Kuangyin did not send all the heavy troops to Huainan to quell the rebellion."

"Let me guess, Zhao Kuangyin did not increase his troops in Huainan, that is, he increased his troops to the north."

"The saint is wise, this time Zhao Kuangyin even transferred the soldiers and horses of the Eastern Realm Jiedu envoy to Jingzhao Mansion first,

Then they marched in the direction of Qinzhou! ”

"Jingzhao Mansion? Qinzhou? Could it be that Northern Liao is in trouble? ”

Li Xiang remembered that these two places were close to the border of Northern Liao in history, and this time was the period of the military strength of Northern Liao, so he began to ask.

"Northern Liao did not send troops, but moved the capital south to Xijin Mansion and renamed Nanjing."

"Therefore, this Northern Liao moved the capital south shortly after I became emperor, and I expected that Zhao Kuangyin would use troops against me, so I snooped in the back and waited for the opportunity to move!"

Since ancient times, the Han people are not warlike, but they have fought a lot, and the reason is that these tribes in the northwest, due north, and northeast have repeatedly raised troops to seize the Han people and invade the Han land.

Almost every emperor of the dynasty was disturbed by these northern tribes. These are all things in the future, and now that the Northern Song Dynasty is not extinguished, I don't have time to engage in these Northern tribes.

"This Yelu family has helped me a favor."

Li Xiang laughed helplessly, the Tang and Song dynasties fought for hegemony, and the Northern Liao wanted to make a profit, these barbarians absorbed the Han people, and they also learned some of the essence of Chinese civilization.

"Who is the main one in Northern Liao now?"

"Your Majesty, now Northern Liao is the lord of Yeluxian."

After the Zhao family unified the Central Plains, they used troops against Liao for many years, not only did they not recapture the sixteen states of Yanyun, but also lost their troops and finally returned in a huff.

As a result, the land of Yanyun, which should have belonged to the Han people, was controlled by the Northern Liao for a long time, and the Yanyun Han people of that era were also driven and enslaved by the Liao State as animals.

"Now that the saint has cut the military prestige of the Northern Song Dynasty, Zhao Kuangyin will not give up! So..."

"So my top priority now is to dispose of a few troops in the north!

Now that Zhao Kuangyin has lost face, he will definitely send troops south, so..."

Northern Song Dynasty Bianjing, capital hall

"So the current Li Yu is just coveting Li Chongjin's remaining tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, as for Li Chongjin, he can give it up at any time!"

"Listening to Xue Qing's meaning, is he going to use Li Chongjin's head to give Da Song a step?"

"Yes, at this time, Li Yu will definitely find a way to get rid of Li Chongjin in order to get the soldiers and horses.

And my Great Song sent troops south, which just found an excuse for Li Yu to get rid of Li Chongjin! ”

"But I feel that it's still cheaper for this Li family boy."

"Hahahaha! The official family is assured, Li Chong must be nervous when he enters the Tang Dynasty,

Therefore, he will always tell his old ministry to be with him, once Li Yu hands over Li Chongjin's head, it will be used to calm the anger of the official family.

His old subordinates are uneasy, and it is only a matter of time before they cause trouble! ”

"That is Li Yu's northern aid this time, not only to hand over Li Chongjin's head, but also to send troops to quell the rebellion of the rebels after Li Chongjin's death!"

"That's right, at that time, when the official family stabilizes the danger of Liaohan in the north, they can send troops to the south and take advantage of the civil strife in the Southern Tang Dynasty to destroy the country in one fell swoop!"

"Hahaha! Xue Qing is really my heart and soul, how can I not make my heart happy! ”

Listening to Xue Juzheng's analysis for a while, Zhao Kuangyin found that as long as he was not in a hurry now, stabilized his mentality, and delayed time, then Li Yu would find that his rescue of Li Chongjin would not only not reap the benefits, but also bring about the disaster of destroying the country!

......

However, at this moment, neither Zhao Kuangyin nor Xue Juzheng, the governor of the political affairs who was decisive thousands of miles away, did not know that Li Yu, who was cowardly before, had completely changed his appearance.

"The Song people will definitely set their eyes on Li Chongjin first, and they are also expected to be afraid that the Northern Song Dynasty army will go south.

At the same time, I will also think that I covet those soldiers and horses, and will directly hand over Li Chongjin's head to Zhao Kuangyin. ”

"Now although the number and combat power of our Tang army are rising, but it is really at war with Song, and my Tang still can't base Song!

Therefore, handing over Li Chongjin to delay time is also beneficial to my Datang. ”

"Han Xiang said this, the old man can't agree, if he really kills Li Chongjin, in the future, those old Li Ying's old troops will oppose my Tang Dynasty, and it will also bring about a catastrophe!"

Liu Renzhen, the head of the generals, finally came out and said a few words, but he was indeed frightened by Han Xizai's treatment of Li Chongjin.

Although this Han Xizai is dedicated to Tang, he must not be a soldier, and he has been away from fighting for many years, so he doesn't know that this soldier will give a heavy blow to a country at a critical moment.

"It's... Then I won't do anything..."

"No! I just regretted that the troops were not as good as Zhao Songcai's personal expedition to the north, killing Li Chongjin in one and Li Yingbing in the second.

I don't get nothing, and who will dare to really contribute to me in the future! ”

Li Xiang looked at this Han Xizai Although it was wise, sometimes it was a little too extreme to consider Datang. And he has been in civil politics for many years, and he has not heard much about the affairs of the soldiers.

"Pan Qing, what do you think?"

Seeing that Han Xizai was a little extreme, Li Xiang hurriedly threw the stubble to Pan You, as for why he threw it to Pan You, as soon as Pan You was concerned, Li Xiang had already learned about national politics in Dali Temple Prison.

Second, he was close friends with Li Xiong, one of the five fierce generals of the Southern Tang Dynasty, and this intersection of civil and military affairs still had some opinions on military politics.

"The saint, the minister thinks that Li Chongjin cannot be killed, not only can he not be killed, but he must also be appeased."

"Alas, I am indeed worried about where Li Chongjin will be placed, so according to Pan Qing's opinion, how to be appeased."

"It's easy to do! Let me... Let the minister go and drink with Li Chongjin for three days and three nights, and then call his mother for the crying father who was comforted by the saint! ”

At this time, Bao Laosi listened to it for a long time, and he couldn't find a breakthrough to please Li Xiang, and saw that the civil and military forces around him were all talking about it, only he hadn't shared his worries about Li Xiang, so he jumped up and patted his chest to appease Li Chongjin for Li Xiang.

"How can you talk nonsense!"

Han Xizai saw that this goods jumped out and became ill again, and he didn't understand why Li Xiang had to summon this goods in to ask about something, but it was not good to drive him out, so he wanted to dismiss him.

"Han Qing, don't be impatient, according to me, what Bao Qing said also has some truth."

Ou yo, I'm good! The Holy One finally approved of me, oh roar roar... As soon as the fourth child heard Li Xiang's words, he instantly couldn't help but be overjoyed as if he had picked up gold, and he almost jumped up and shouted long live.

Could it be that Li Xiang is also pitiful, and Bao Ying is no one in this hall? Of course not, he summoned Bao Laosi in, and indeed the first use was to send him to Li Ying and Li Chongjin to get drunk all night.

"It's... Let this guy go and drink with Li Chongjin... Holy Lord, is this going to work? ”

"Han Qing doesn't want to underestimate the amount of wine in this Bao Ying, last time I went to my dormitory to sprinkle it,

I asked him how much he had drunk, and he could tell me that he had drunk five jars! ”

"This pack of old four drinks is good, but can drinking alcohol solve the rebellion?"

Han Xizai was still a little worried, because he knew that this Bao Ying drank too much and liked Hu Lai. Otherwise, it wouldn't have been the last time I came back with the paperwork, drank too much, and went to Ganlu Palace to disturb Emperor Zhou E.

"Bao Ying, listen up! I have a great deal to do with you! ”

"Although the Holy Lord commanded, the ministers went up to the sword mountain and went down to the sea of fire..."Seeing that this Bao Ying was about to start running the train with his mouth full of mouth, Li Xiang hurriedly interrupted him.

"It's not that serious, you go to Li Chongjin to drink, but remember not to get drunk!"

"The minister will definitely live up to the trust of the saint!"

"Well, that's fine."

"Holy... And what..."

This sentence suddenly made Li Xiang a little impatient, and asked you to go to him to get drunk, isn't this obvious enough.

"You idiot! The Holy One is going to you to get Li Chongjin drunk,

Then pretend to be drunk and say that the Holy Master values him and appease him! Listen to his drunken mantra again! ”

Bao Laosi's cousin Shangshu Zuo servant Xu Xuan hurriedly mentioned him, and even wondered whether it was the right choice to listen to his father's words and put this Bao Laosi in the official position.

I see, I didn't think that I could drink it, and it was really possible to make a great contribution to the saint! The saint said that this is a heavy responsibility, and I must treat it well, and I don't know... What kind of reward will the Holy One give, hehe...

Li Xiang saw that Bao Laosi not only didn't sit down, but ignored the eyes of others, his eyes narrowed and he laughed, and he knew that this kid must be caring about something lewd again.

"Bao Ying, if you can share my worries this time,

I will promote you to the rank of military general, General Zuo Qianniuwei! ”
