Chapter 54: Killing the Liao Envoy

"Why did my father suddenly send a decree to you, didn't he say that you don't need to go to court in the past few days?"

Jiade Emperor Zhao Yupan hugged Wu Zhi like a little wife, and asked puzzledly.

For Wu Zhi's husband, after a few days of getting along, she was very satisfied.

So much so that Zhao Yupan, who has not been interested in Zhao Ji since he was a child, can't help but be grateful at this moment.

After all, my father still loves him.

Otherwise, he would not have promised himself to such a person.

As the saying goes, Wen can put pen to peace in the world, and Wu can go to the horse to set the world.

Wu Zhi can be literate and martial, can lead troops to fight, can be a scholar to govern the country, and looking at the Great Song Dynasty, he can't find a second person at all.

After a few days of getting along, Zhao Yupan's heart had already been captured by Wu Zhi, and his eyes were flashing with confusion.

"It's not a matter of the envoy of the Liao State yet......"

Wu Zhi opened his mouth and explained to Zhao Yupan roughly.

"This envoy of the Liao Kingdom is too blind to no one, and he dares to treat my Great Song Dynasty as nothing! And that Liao country, do you really think that my Great Song Dynasty will be afraid of him? ”

Zhao Yupan was born as a princess of the current dynasty, which can be described as a golden branch and jade leaf.

After listening to Wu Zhi's simple explanation, he was immediately furious.

"If I were my father, I would definitely kill the envoy of the Liao State, and hang his head on the head of Bianjing City, and if the Liao State dares to move, we will send troops."

Zhao Yupan gritted his teeth, eager to kill himself and go to the battlefield.

"Jade plate, why don't you know your father? Liaoguo is deliberately looking for fault, the purpose is to find an excuse for the war, your father is not sure in his heart, and he can't make up his mind for a while, so he let me enter the palace. ”

Seeing Zhao Yupan's angry cuteness, Wu Zhi touched her forehead to calm her emotions.

"I see!"

After listening to Wu Zhi's explanation, Zhao Yupan also understood the seriousness of the matter.

Since the Liao State wants to send troops, it is still ready for war.

Once the battle is engaged, the Great Song Dynasty is unprepared and will inevitably be at a disadvantage.

After calming Zhao Yupan's emotions, Wu Zhi immediately did not stop and went directly to the palace.

"The ministers and martial arts go straight to the official family!"

Song Huizong Zhao Ji was also numb from state affairs, and he didn't have the heart to study magic paintings.

Wu Zhi came in and immediately bowed and saw him.

"It's the pony coming, someone, watch!"

Seeing that Wu Zhi came, Song Huizong Zhao Ji was in a slightly better mood and ordered someone to send a stool.

"Xie Guan's family."

Wu Zhi sat on the stool without hesitation and sat on Zhao Ji's side.

"Don Ma, the Liao State is very humiliated, but the Great Song State is weak, once I fight with the Liao State, I am afraid that the chance of victory is less than 20%, what should I do?"

Obviously, Zhao Ji was also really angry in his heart.

But he was afraid that he would give Liao an excuse to send troops, so he was uncertain at this time.

"Your Majesty, according to the ministers, the officials don't want to fight this battle, and they have to fight."

After Wu Zhi listened, he thought for a while and said to Zhao Ji.

"Since Liao wants to fight, then we will meet him. It just so happens that the Central Plains has lost the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun for hundreds of years, and it is time to get it back. ”

Wu Zhi spoke, his expression flat.

"Do you think our Great Song has any hope of winning?"

The idea of recapturing the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun, Zhao Ji didn't dare to think about it at all.

For him, as long as he doesn't get defeated by the Khitans.

"Your Majesty, rest assured, the national strength of my Great Song Dynasty is still above that of the Liao State, as long as the Liao State dares to send troops, my Great Song Dynasty will win."

"Victory?"

After listening to Wu Zhi's words, Song Huizong was a little more confident.

Pacing back and forth to think.

"Okay, I'll listen to you this time, I really can't stand the Liao envoy."

In the end, Song Huizong Zhao Ji made a decision in his heart.

When the two of them were ready in their hearts and went straight to the harem, the envoy of the Liao State was playing hide and seek with several palace maids.

Wu Zhi stepped forward expressionlessly and walked directly opposite the envoy of the Liao State.

"Got you!"

The envoy of the Liao State hugged Wu Zhi and shouted happily.

"Who are you? How did you get in! ”

However, when he took off the blindfold, he couldn't help but be startled when he saw Wu Zhi's expressionless face.

Immediately, the stubble shouted angrily.

"My name is Wu Zhi, Taiwei of the Great Song Dynasty, Duke Wu Guo!"

Wu Zhi had no intention of concealing it, and directly reported his name.

"What do you want?"

Seeing Wu Zhi looking at him playfully, the envoy of the Liao State suddenly panicked and asked with some fear.

"Naturally, I'm here to kill you!"

Wu Zhi stared at the envoy of the Liao Kingdom, and killing intent flashed in his eyes.

"Don't mess around, the 200,000 cavalry of the Liao State is stationed on the border of Mengzhou Bian, only I am dead, and the Great Liao will definitely send troops to attack the Great Song Dynasty."

Thinking of the 200,000 troops of the Liao State, the envoy of the Liao State couldn't help but straighten his chest and his confidence increased greatly.

"It's good to fight, if you don't fight, is my captain just an ornament?"

Wu Zhi spoke, his tone seemed to be obsessed with fighting, and his eyes were full of excitement and stubbornness.

"By the way, there are also the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun, after the Great Song Dynasty lost the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun, not only did it lose its barrier, but there were almost no cavalry available, it was too difficult!"

This time, Wu Zhi set the goal of taking the sixteen states of Youyun.

If the situation is feasible, he even wants to pretend to destroy the Liao State, and return the Great Song Dynasty to a bright and prosperous country.

"Tsk!"

Listening to Wu Zhi's words, the envoy of the Liao State shook his head directly, and said sarcastically: "The Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun were snatched by our ancestors from your ancestors, and they have long been returned to our Great Liao, if you want to take it back, send troops to get it!" ”

"Of course, if you two are willing to crawl through my crotch, I may be able to say a few nice words for you when I go back. Otherwise, you have to look good! ”

The envoys of the Liao State thought that with the Liao State in the army, they could threaten Wuzhi unscrupulously.

Soon, though, he realized that he was wrong,

Wu Zhi didn't bother to explain anything to him at all, so he went over with one hand and broke his neck.

"Happy!"

killed this fox fake tiger might, and also wanted to get involved in the harem of the Liao envoy, Zhao Ji was the first to open his mouth to praise.

"Official, now is not the time to be happy. It's a small matter to kill him, and the next thing is the battle between Song and Liao, and Your Majesty must prepare first. Wu Zhi said.

"What Captain Wu said is reasonable."

Zhao Ji nodded in satisfaction.

A court meeting was immediately convened to discuss how to deal with the Liao army.

Before the results were discussed in the Bianjing court, the news that Wu Zhi had killed the envoy of the Liao State had already reached the ears of Yelu Yanxi.

If he intended to find a reason for war, Yelu Yanxi was naturally overjoyed, and immediately took Yelu Liufeng, the king of the Southern Courtyard, as the commander, and Wu Yong as the military advisor, sending 200,000 troops to the border to defend the city.

How terrible the combat effectiveness of 200,000 cavalry was, I used to hear people talk about it.

This time I really came, and I understood the horror of the cold weapon war years.

In just one day, the fortified city was defeated by the army and was officially breached, which immediately shocked the government and the opposition.

In the Wende Palace, Zhao Ji looked at the civil and military officials, hoping that everyone could give the best way.

"Your Majesty, the old minister is willing to lead his troops and horses to attack the Liao State!"

Before Wu Zhi could speak, Tong Guan stood up.
