Chapter 408 But incompetent

Kong Ming got up and looked at the map behind him.

The slender fingers slowly moved up from the east of Luoyang, and finally nodded in Youzhou:

"The Liao cavalry commander pointed to the capital of the Song Dynasty, but the morning and evening came."

"If you can't go to Youzhou, Song Zuo will be uneasy."

Speaking of this, Zhang Fei and Ma Chao were serious.

"Take Youzhou three ways, and if you want to achieve great things with ingenuity, you can't do it."

Zhang Fei also paced over, and made two strokes on the map with one palm, and finally made a shallow stroke on the Taihang Mountains:

"The soldiers of Shanxi are not to be feared, whether they win or lose, die or live, they will not affect the situation in Hebei."

"On the contrary, this Hebei is a place where cavalry can crisscross and lighten.

After a pause, he lowered his head and thought for a while and continued:

"Or, the heavy army of the city is fortified, watch and help each other to make the Liao cavalry unshakable, and pour two or three years of work step by step, then Youzhou can go down to Hebei and be flat."

"Or, pour all the money into the pass to seek good horses to cast fine horses, foot and cavalry to cooperate with the fortified city as bait, and destroy the Liao fine cavalry to attack and defend the momentum is different."

Zhang Fei's words did not surprise Kong Ming, and he smiled and waved a feather fan and nodded in appreciation.

It was very gratifying that Liu Bei watched his third brother calm down from Pang Tong to the Han Dynasty, and put down the rebellion alone a few months ago.

In the past, he was impatient with soldiers, and he could say "devote two or three years of work to the camp step by step", it can be seen that at this time, the third brother is more and more far away from the whip Jian'er's vengeance and drunken Zhang Fei, how can Liu Bei not be pleased?

"Or maybe it doesn't have to be so troublesome."

Ma Chao was also unwilling, and also briefly measured the Yongliang area he was most familiar with on the map, so as to have an idea of the size of Hebei, and then started from the perspective he was most familiar with:

"This Song can push to this Youzhou with horse infantry, which can be seen in a sudden state."

"Seize the opportunity to be a suspicious soldier, but to take advantage of it, when an army is placed in the Taihang Mountain Pass, it is a suspicious soldier, and then the army is full of strength."

"Pour all your strength into Youzhou, as long as the city is broken, Hebei can be determined."

Ma Chao's simple and rude but huge force of play also made Kong Ming nod frequently.

It's just that how can this method of making soldiers shout loudly on the mountain to be suspicious soldiers is so familiar?

Zhang Fei didn't care so much, and asked Ma Chao directly:

"What if Youzhou can't be defeated?"

"How is that possible?" Ma Chaoda shook his head:

"Youzhou has been the land of the Han Dynasty since ancient times, why should you work for the Khitan people?"

Ma Chao has been scolded since he was a child, and now no one dares to say these two words in front of him after leading the army, but there is no doubt that he also knows something about the unity of Han'er:

"The heavy army is besieging the city, if the Khitan is suspicious of the Han in the city, the defenders of the city will be overstretched."

"If you don't suspect it, you only need to connect inside and outside, and Youzhou City can go down in one go."

Zhang Fei was silent, although it was such a reason, he always felt that it was probably not so simple.

……

In the Ganlu Palace, the matter of Wei Yu inducing the prince when he advised couldn't help but remind the ministers of the current prince, huh...... There is also the Duke of Lu Guo, who has not been seen for a long time.

Everyone has a faint guess about Hou Junji's whereabouts, so there are many sighs.

After all, His Majesty once valued this Qin Wangfu's old value, and everyone saw it in their eyes.

If there was no such thing as a moth, the Western Regions would have been a place for the Duke of Lu to show his strength.

Moreover, it is not suitable for Pharmacist Li to stay in the Western Regions for a long time at such an age, and in theory, Hou Junji is the most suitable candidate for the future protector of the four towns of Anxi, but it is a pity that he ......

As for Li Chengqian, he is only twelve years old now, and the former ministers of the Qin Palace's mansion can be regarded as watching the prince grow up, so it is difficult to have any harsh words.

The ministers didn't dare to say it, but the eldest grandson queen had no such scruples, there was a touch of melancholy in her eyes, and she looked at her husband and said softly:

"In two days, why don't Your Majesty take time out to guide Cheng Qian's martial arts?"

What else can Li Shimin say? Immediately, he could only nod his head in agreement.

But in his heart, he also added two points of bad feelings to Zhao Er:

Why can't you even discipline a son well?

[Zhao Pu's comeback, as we said before, came out to block the gun for Zhao Er.

In fact, now that the annals of history have been opened, half of the bad comments on Zhao Pu are mostly focused on this "three times to worship the prime minister".

As I said before, Zhao Er never plays small in his life, and he always only plays big when he wants to play.

With only the Battle of the Gaoliang River and the Northern Expedition of Yongxi, the Song Dynasty was successfully defeated, and the Song Dynasty was unable to fight again.

But a large number of main battle factions promoted by Zhao Er in order to create his image of being wise and martial are still in the court, what should I do? Let Zhao Pu come.

After Zhao Pu paid homage to the prime minister, those who fought in the Song court, such as Zhao Changyan, the deputy privy envoy, Chen Xiangyu and Dong Yan, who were known as "Chen Sangen" and "Dong Midnight", were either demoted or released.

The attitude of the Northern Song Dynasty towards the Khitan changed from war to peace, all of which were done by Zhao Pu.

It is also for this reason that after the shame of Jingkang, the literati of the Southern Song Dynasty criticized Zhao Pu a lot, believing that Zhao Pu's third visit to the prime minister was a strategic mistake of the Song Dynasty and the shame of the demise of the Northern Song Dynasty, and Zhao Pu should also take three points of credit.

This is more of the Southern Song Dynasty's angry words at that time when they saw the national humiliation, after all, in the case of internal and external difficulties, no matter who Zhao Er put in the phase, he had to make a strategy of recuperating and temporarily stopping the war.

Moreover, Zhao Pu's unification strategy for Zhao Dading in the early days was also to first the south and then the north, and then the easy, then the difficult, not to pacify the south, and we will shrink from it.

It can only be said that Zhao Pu is indeed unlucky enough in a way, Zhao Da, who originally formulated a strategy together, died mysteriously, and Zhao Er was a master with a low eye, and he lost his family.

The literati and righteous men of the Southern Song Dynasty were eager to criticize Zhao Pu's strategy of mastering peace, but they were selectively blind to Zhao Er, who fundamentally led to the defeat of the Gaoliang River and the defeat of the Yongxi Northern Expedition.

This is not surprising, after all, the main responsibility of Yongxi's Northern Expedition is Cao Bin, who does not even have the position of privy envoy, how can he be the wise and martial His Majesty Taizong?

In addition, in addition to the master and this strategy, Zhao Pu has indeed promoted many young talents in the five years since he visited the prime minister for the third time.

Lv Mengzheng, Zhang Qixian, Kou Zhun, Feng Zheng, Wang Jiying and other highly praised Zai Fu were all recommended and promoted by Zhao Pu, and Wang Yuyan, a hard-headed minister who was quite famous in the early Song Dynasty, was also courteous to Zhao Pu.

Therefore, it can be said that Zhao Pu has indeed done a lot of practical things for the Northern Song Dynasty, and he can be regarded as a cadre in any case.

As for Zhao Er? When Qianlong took the Qing Dynasty, he criticized him for being "ashamed of virtue", which simply means that virtue is not good.

Our faculty members once commented on him as "unscrupulous and eager to take the stage", and emphatically praised him as "incompetent".

did not affirm or deny the authenticity of the candle shadow axe and the alliance of Jin Kui, but focused more on Zhao Er's eagerness to take the throne.

However, in comparison, Zhao Er himself is still quite open-minded, such as Zeng Rui's comment on Erfeng:

“…… Seeing what Taizong did, he also covered up his false name. For every thing, you must make a statement...... Isn't that natural! ”

In the "Records of Taizong", he is not lagging behind at all, and he thinks that he has surpassed the Qin Emperor, surpassed the Han Dynasty, surpassed the Tang Sect, and has an outstanding state of mind.

In addition, in terms of the evaluation of Erfeng, Zhao Er and his sixth grandson Wanyan have a common language:

"Tang Taizong...... It can be described as a virtuous gentleman. However, it is exaggerated and has a good name, although it is admonished, but it is not as sincere as Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty. ”】

Liu Bei: Emperor Sejong is of high quality, he is good outside, he cultivates the law internally, he is unconvinced by benevolence and righteousness, and his merits cannot be fully declared.

Zhang Fei: Taizu can live on the horse but defeat the enemy, who is you, who dares to move your upper and lower lips?

Ma Chao: If you face each other, I will kill you.

Li Shimin: Phew!

Pei Xingjian: I'm too!

Wei Chigong: Ma Mengqi, can the horse in Ruliangzhou be faster than the sorghum donkey cart? 〗

Zhao Guangyi was completely wilted at this time, and he didn't dare to look at the words written by those ancestors.

Especially that Tang Taizong is simple and single-word, but the disdain has been vividly expressed.

Although Emperor Zhaolie's words were complicated, he had the same merits and demerits, which was enough for him not to dare to say more.

Zhang Fei scolded bluntly, but if you think about it carefully, maybe he is really an ancestor, after all, he is from Zhuo County, and in a sense, he is also a fellow villager.

And Ma Chao's words made him a little frightened, and Wei Chi's sneering words made him even more unable to laugh.

If there were no today's events, seeing those names that were only seen in the annals of history laughing and scolding, he should also be interested in watching them.

But now that such laughter and scolding are coming at him, it makes his heart bitter uncontrollably.

At this time, the hall was a little clearer, so that Zhao Kuangyin could clearly hear the weeping voice behind him:

"Shame on you."

Zhao Kuangyin sighed, and didn't look back to comfort, but thought about it and said slowly:

"After all, I am doing things for Song, and the younger generations will not tarnish your name."

Then he excitedly said:

"But now, the forbidden army has not been lost, and the grain from the south of the Yangtze River should be used to enrich the Northern Han."

"Slow down, reconquer Yanyun in Youzhou, and make Huaxia unified."

Zhao Kuangyin looked up at the light curtain, with an undisguised desire in his eyes, who doesn't want to create a unified foundation for future generations to remember?

And he is different from his younger brother who only plays kung fu on his lips, and still remembers that the light curtain said that Zhao Pu's formulation of "first south and then north" was discussed with Zhao Pu on a snowy night ten years ago.

And this younger brother ...... Looking at Zhao Guangyi, who was already languishing, thinking about the forbidden army that was empty by him, Zhao Kuangyin was still a little angry:

"If you really have the virtue of covering the Qin Emperor, Han Wu, Tang Taizong, then why can't you in the end?"

When Zhao Kuangyi heard this, Huo Ran raised his head, and then bumped into his brother's gaze, which was completely unwarm:

"Then what the world says is really broken, and you are powerless."

Previously, Zhao Guangyi was scolded angrily, but at this time, when he heard that his brother said that he was incompetent, a lot of blood suddenly rushed to his head, and he wanted to let his brother understand what it means to be angry, he is also bloody!

Dragging the broken leg, Zhao Kuangyi roared and threw himself at his brother, and hit his brother's black face with a solid punch.

It's just that unlike Zhao Kuangyi's prediction of his brother's back, he was injured and his teeth were shattered, and the Zhao Song official family sitting there did not move, and his face was not half a minute expression.

Then he watched as his brother raised his right hand, clenched it into a fist, swung his elbow back, and then the fist thundered and came at him.

Zhao Guangyi felt as if he was spinning in the air, his body fell to the ground again as if it was not himself, his ears were buzzing, and the sweet smell of blood rushed out of his mouth and nose again.

Then, in a drowsy state, I heard my brother's voice, as if coming from the clouds:

"The pace is weak, the punches are soft, and those who can't even beat people want to drive in person?"

After a pause, he could vaguely feel his brother changing directions and asking:

"The king of Jin is guilty of rebellion and intends to assassinate, can you see it clearly?"

So Zhao Guangyi's head, which was filled with blood, was like ice water on his head, and his limbs trembled slightly.

Then he couldn't hold it anymore and fainted.

For King Jin, who was lying on the ground for half a minute and didn't move, Zhao Kuangyin and Zhao Pu didn't take it seriously.

Zhao Pu even took a pen and paper from the chamberlain and wrote down the names he had just heard.

Although these people may not be easy to find, and they may still be young in age, they are the best materials for the main battle, even if they can't be picked up, but they are left on the list, and if they really bump into them, they will not be more likely to miss the good materials.

And in the final analysis, it was made clear ten years ago when the decision was made between the south and then the north, and this is the easy first and then the hardest.

The sharpness of the Khitan cavalry, the high pool of the city of Taiyuan, Zhao Pu and Zhao Kuangyin are all very clear about it.

Now, even if there is an opportunity to change course, it must be done with extreme caution.

……

In the Manna Palace, he took a sip in the air, and Li Shimin didn't take it to heart anymore.

To tell the truth, if it is the evaluation of the younger generation of heroes such as Na Zhu Baba, he will gladly accept it, and then act according to his words.

Or more special like the founder of the country in later generations, he will only admit with a smile, after all, his merits can be called extraordinary.

But this Zhao Er and that finished Yan Structure? I shook my head in my heart, and I didn't have half of my mind on it.

And Li Shimin faintly guessed in his heart that if this Zhao Er really regained Yan Yun and took possession of the Western Regions, I am afraid that Tu Ming's actions will far surpass him.

But then I felt that I was too worried, what Yanyun was trying to do, don't be beaten to death by Zhao Da first.

However, although Li Shimin didn't care anymore, Wei Chigong, Changsun Wuji and other relatives were quite angry, and counted the places where Zhao Er was not a son of man one by one, which made the hall lively in an instant.

Even Empress Changsun's words were spicy:

"Those who know others are wise, those who know themselves are clear, and those who know neither others nor themselves can be described as stupid."

But then thinking that this was the emperor of the Song Dynasty, Empress Changsun couldn't help but sigh.

In the end, it was Li Shimin who pressed the matter with a smile:

"I am indeed not as sincere as Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty, so I should encourage myself."

In this regard, there is no opinion in the Ganlu Palace, and they all give up their hands.

……

Ma Chao saw that there was still someone in Tang who called out his words, and he was surprised but regretful:

"If you can talk to this famous general of the Tang Dynasty, drink and perform martial arts, it should be the pleasure of life."

Zhang Fei hurriedly nodded and said:

"What Meng Qi said is exactly what I want."

The eldest brother also said before that he just wanted to join in the fun and beat Emperor Song by the way, how could it be! I Lao Zhang also has pursuits.

However, what Zhang Fei said at this moment, whether it was Pang Tong or Jian Yong, they all looked forward to it.

If you can, let alone the godly afterlife, it would be unimaginable to let them meet and drink with the monarchs and ministers of the prosperous Tang Dynasty.

Otherwise, there will be a chance to talk more in words in the future?
