Later generations mentioned ancient times, and the power of the Han and Tang dynasties made people yearn for it.

The Northern Song Dynasty, on the other hand, is always dizzying and fascinated, but also embarrassed and helpless.

In this gorgeous era, the articles and poems are dizzying, and many names are still shining even after thousands of years, such as Su Shi.

But there are many whose names have been spurned in later generations.

For example, Zhao Ji, for example, Qin Hui.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!"

Zhao Zhen was studying the Spring and Autumn Zuo Biography with Zai Fu, but someone outside couldn't wait to report and shouted, which sounded like the voice of the privy envoy Pang Ji.

"Your Majesty, Li Yuanhao has ascended the throne!"

Really!

Zhang Zhibai, who had just smiled, was as stunned as a wooden chicken.

Zhao Zhen said eagerly: "Let him in." ”

Pang Ji rushed in, didn't care about saluting, and said: "Your Majesty, the news just came, Li Yuanhao has ascended the throne, and all the domestic forces have been calmed down...... And ......"

Glancing at the palace of monarchs and ministers, Pang Ji Zhengse said: "Li Yuanhao ascended the throne and became the emperor, and the Western Xia was established!" ”

What?

The monarchs and ministers were all at a loss, and then they were horrified.

Western Xia actually established a country!

Originally, in history, Western Xia was still a nominal subordinate Fanbang of the Great Song Dynasty, although it was in name only, but at least the place of Western Xia was not recognized internationally.

However, the Song and Liao only recognized the Western Xia as a local separatist regime, and did not regard it as a complete state.

Don't look at it as a nominal thing, but the difference is huge.

If the Western Xia did not establish a state, the Song and Liao would have been able to use troops against the Western Xia at any time.

But now that the Western Xia has established the country, it has become a situation of the Three Kingdoms, and no matter if any party wants to do it, it will be greatly restricted.

The messenger was summoned, and the crowd eagerly inquired about the situation.

"After Li Yuanhao ascended the throne, domestic forces flocked to it, and it seemed that the fight was endless, but in fact it was all a trick, Xixia wanted to make the surrounding forces ready to move, and then rashly attacked, so that Xixia Ming was chaotic but had already prepared for it, and a sentence to crush the surrounding forces that dared to covet it, and then took advantage of the situation to establish a country, but Li Yuanhao's plan did not succeed, Song and Liao did not use troops to the border, Xixia knew that the plan could not succeed, but Li Yuanhao couldn't wait."

"What a ruthless Li Yuanhao! What a strategic, Li Yuanhao! ”

Zhang Zhibai's voice was full of jealousy, worried that the young man Li Yuanhao would become a trouble for the Great Song Dynasty.

The founding of the Western Xia country!

This means that the original situation of confrontation between the two countries has suddenly become a staggered situation between the three countries.

Let's not talk about what the Liao State thinks for the time being, just look at the current side of the Great Song Dynasty, if it tolerates the establishment of the Western Xia State like this, then the northwest defense line of the Great Song Dynasty will be dangerous.

But if you send troops to fight at this moment, the Liao side will be happy to hear it.

At that time, the Great Song Dynasty and the Western Xia were in full swing, and the Liao State took advantage of the situation to attack from the side, so the end was ......

If the Liao State attacked the Western Xia, it would be easy for the two great powers to join forces with the Western Xia, but would the Liao State be willing to join forces with the Great Song Dynasty?

I'm afraid that the Liao people will not fight the Western Xia, but turn their heads to attack the Great Song Dynasty, and when the time comes, the two sides will be enemies, will the Great Song Dynasty be able to resist the offensive of Xia and Liao?

"Your Majesty, the more you can't be impatient at this time, it seems that the Western Xia State has been prepared for a long time, if you make a move at this time, the Liao State will definitely take advantage of the fire to rob it."

Zhang Zhibai decisively analyzed the situation.

A while ago, he always encouraged to mobilize troops in advance and prepare grain and grass, and once he got the exact news of the civil strife in Western Xia, the Great Song Dynasty should march immediately.

Fortunately, Zhao Zhen didn't listen to him, otherwise the first thing Li Yuanhao did after ascending the throne and becoming emperor was the great Song Liwei.

On the one hand, it has been planned for a long time, and on the other hand, it is full of joy and wants to take advantage.

Victory or defeat has long been written.

If it is the Liao State, it may bring a little hardship to the Western Xia, but if it is the Great Song Dynasty...... In such a situation, it is likely to be slapped back by Western Xia.

It is understandable to lose to the Liao, but if it is lost to the Western Xia.

The face is disgraced......

Zhang Zhibai was very bitter and pleaded, and Zhao Zhen sighed: "Then Li Yuanhao has such courage when he is young...... What about Qin Wei? Call him, I want to hear what he has to say. ”

Zhang Zhibai's face was slightly red, his lips squirmed, but he had nothing to say.

What can he say?

Qin Wei for that kid...... He's the hell...... He even made another meritorious service.

If he hadn't tried his best to persuade Zhao Zhen not to rush into sending troops, it would have been very likely that the Great Song Dynasty would have been used as a pawn by the Tangut people to set an example for the monkeys.

What can you tell the old man to say?

After a short time, Qin Wei came, and after entering the hall, he first saluted, and then looked at a few Zaifu with a blank face.

What are you doing looking at me like that?

The eyes of the Zaisukes are very special, how can you say it? It's like a prostitute meeting a beautiful woman, and his eyes are so panicked.

Zhao Zhen was also looking at him, and said with a straight face: "Qin Qing has worked hard......"

Ahem, ahem!

Zhang Zhibai coughed irrepressibly.

Zhao Zhen is very good to his courtiers, which can be seen from the title.

Zhang Qing, Lv Qing......

These are all the ministers of the Great Song Dynasty, and they are the ministers of the humerus that the emperor needs to rely on.

But what about Qin Wei?

Zhao Zhen didn't seem to hear the cough, and said seriously: "The news that just arrived, Li Yuanhao succeeded to the throne." ”

Qin Wei said with a blank face: "Your Majesty, hasn't this matter been discussed a long time ago?" Li Yuanhao will definitely succeed to the throne, and the civil strife in Western Xia is also fake......"

Zhao Zhen glanced at the somewhat embarrassed Zaifu, then nodded, and said seriously: "Li Yuanhao not only succeeded to the throne, but also established the Western Xia country!" ”

Cow!

Qin Wei raised his head suddenly, and a little light flashed in his eyes.

The old Li family is really a family of battle maniacs, and they are really going to establish a country, which is ready, and they will use the power of the Western Xia to weigh the two catties of the Song and Liao countries.

In a word, I, Xiao Li, want to be on an equal footing with the two of you!

It doesn't matter if you're convinced or not, let's fight if there's a kind.

It's a big deal to go back to the pre-liberation period overnight.

But if Xixia wins, then history will be rewritten in an instant, and this pearl that shines for a moment in the long river of history will eventually radiate his own light.

In fact, the Western Xia really won.

It resisted the pressure of the Song and Liao countries so stubbornly, and established the country openly!

At that time, the Great Song Dynasty didn't even want to rescue the soldiers, but the Vaxia army led by Han Qi suffered an unprecedented defeat, making the Western Xia a god in a battle.

The Liao State is also not much better.

Under the policy of clearing the wilderness of the Western Xia, the Liao State paid a lot of price to defeat the Western Xia, but it did not instigate it.

"Your Majesty, the Li family's ambition to dominate is not a day or two, since the previous dynasty, Western Xia has always belonged to the situation of grass on the wall, they are accumulating strength, and they are also weighing the situation, now that they are full-fledged, they will naturally no longer be willing to be a nameless and worthless local government."

This is the basis of all analysis, and the monarchs and ministers all nodded.

"The Western Xia was ambitious, and endured for decades in order to establish the country, but fortunately the Great Song Dynasty was not fooled, otherwise under the First World War, the Western Xia would have greatly increased its strength."

Winning and losing are relative.

If you lose, you will lose ground, but once you win...... The Western Xia would stand out from the surrounding forces, thus making those who wanted to covet it jealous.

"Your Majesty......"

Qin Wei said seriously: "Western Xia has just been established, and now the morale is strong, if the crusade at this time may pay a lot of price, even if the Great Song can win, but as long as the Western Xia can't be destroyed, the other party can resurrect, there is no meaning." ”

At this moment, the Western Xia was not afraid of war.

In other words, Li Yuanhao wished that someone could come forward to fight him.

The prestige is great.

The current Western Xia is like a primary school student who has just been His Majesty, and the Song and Liao are college students who have matured for a long time.

When elementary school students and college students fight, the odds of winning are of course very low.

But what if you win?

Then the prestige of Western Xia will resound throughout the Central Plains, and the surrounding tribes will be vassals at that time, and the strength will be multiplied.

Even if you lose, it doesn't matter, as long as it doesn't hurt the roots, Xixia can still play its own fame.

So at this time, what Western Xia wanted was not territory, but fame that could deter the surrounding forces.

"What if Song and Liao join forces?"

As soon as Lu Yijian said this, everyone's eyes gathered.

Even Zhang Zhibai, who had always advocated sending troops, couldn't help but glare at him.

What are you kidding, Song and Liao have always been enemies, especially after Lan Yuan, the relationship between Song and Liao is so delicate, it is already good if you don't fight, how can you join forces.

Qin Wei was not moved, but patiently explained: "Song Liao teaming up can certainly destroy Western Xia, and it is to destroy the country!" But this is just imagination. ”

Qin Wei slowly looked at the important ministers around him, and said seriously: "Li Yuanhao wants to establish his authority, no matter who wants to attack Xia in Song and Liao, Li Yuanhao will not be afraid at this moment, he must fight this battle!" So what we need to do now is not to attack, but to win over ......."

Well?

This is a very novel idea.

The monarchs and ministers are all thinking about how to destroy the Western Xia at the moment, and even if they can't, they must suppress the arrogance of the Western Xia.

After all, that place has always been the territory of the Central Plains, and now that someone has established a country under their own noses, the Liao State may not matter, but the face of the Great Song Dynasty is not good-looking.

So they felt that even if they didn't fight, they had to make a deterrent and make Xixia bow down.

Zhang Zhibai glanced at Qin Wei angrily, and said coldly: "The Northwest Land has belonged to the Central Plains since ancient times, my Great Song Dynasty is orthodox in the Central Plains, and Western Xia is rebellious!" ”

"But now this rebellious Great Song can't be solved in a short time......"

Qin Wei smiled bitterly, and said with a straight face: "Enwei merger is the king's way!" ”

Since you can't kill Xixia in one go, then no matter how ruthless the deterrence is, the establishment of the country is already a certainty, and there is no point in being ruthless at this time.

Zhao Zhen understood what Qin Wei meant, was silent for a while, and said, "How to merge with Enwei?" ”

Qin Wei groaned: "The minister guesses, now the Liao State must also be studying the strategy to deal with the Western Xia, the impact of the Western Xia State on the Song and Liao countries is relative, in this case, the Great Song Dynasty should not blindly send troops, at this moment we have to wait for the Liao people to strike first." ”

"The Liao people strike first?"

Pang Ji was a little puzzled, but Qin Wei nodded and said: "If the Liao people use troops against the Western Xia, then the Western Xia under the enemy will naturally have no spare strength to deal with the Great Song Dynasty. ”

"But what if the Liao people are also waiting for the Great Song Dynasty to make a move?"
