Chapter 829: Dream of This Trip

The next morning, when Song Huizong learned that he did not plan to return to Beijing, Song Qinzong and the prime ministers were relieved; then the news of Yao Gu's recovery of Luzhou made people laugh and cry, who did not know that there was no Jin army in Luzhou, Yao Gucai sent troops from Zezhou again, and entered Luzhou City without much effort. Such a thing, the famous general Yao Gudu used it to invite credit, which shows how unbearable the war in Zezhou and Luzhou was at that time.

All the things that followed were headaches, the army of 200,000 Qin Wang was now tossing around in various places, constantly accusing the imperial court, and the huge expenses of military spending and compensation for the country made the household department, Caoyun and other departments all complain bitterly; after the defeat in Hedong, Wanyan Zongfu and Wanyan Yanmu are now ruthless, they must take down Zhongshan and the entire territory of Hejian, and the voices of the government and the opposition calling for the imperial court to send troops and reinforcements are higher and higher, and the imperial historians are even more like chickens accusing the prime ministers of incompetence.

There is no harm if there is no comparison, the Dingbei army of Zhao Kai, the king of Yun, is only 100,000 people now, Taiyuan has no Jin army since Yan Lou was killed, and the imperial court still has hundreds of thousands of troops in Henan and Hebei, what reason is there not to reinforce Zhan Du them. In addition, for the sake of their own face, Gao Yu and others always said that their soldiers were no less than Yang Zhi and others, which gave the imperial historians a reason to accuse.

Although the imperial court successively killed Li Yan and Liang Fangping on the charge of losing territory, the voices of the people calling for the killing of Cai Jing, Tong Guan, Liang Shicheng, and Zhu Mian are still not small. However, after the suggestion of the Seed Master Dao to lead the Qin Feng army to follow the Jin army to attack it was rejected, he never wrote again; Gao Yu, the Tai Lieutenant who presided over the military affairs, had no idea, leaving only a group of civil servants to quarrel, which caused Song Qinzong to have some headaches.

Fortunately, Li Gang and Tang Ke finally ended their argument and decided to appoint Li Lu as the pacification envoy of the Hebei East Road to be in charge of Zhending and Daming, and to transfer the army of Shizhong and Yang Weizhong to the aid of the two routes, and then transfer a Jiangnan naval division of 2,000 people to the north of the Yellow River, and the forbidden army of 5,000 people to camp on the south bank of the Yellow River; after Song Qinzong agreed, Tang Ke ordered Hu Yanzhuo and Xuanzan to lead the forbidden army, and Liu Heilong led the naval army to garrison the Yellow River together.

Tang Ke still regretted a little in his heart, as for whether Yang Weizhong would withdraw his troops from Zhuozhou, Tang Ke was not completely sure, and could only pray not to anger those Jin people; All officials who are attached to Taiyuan will be dismissed from their posts and punished according to the law. ”

Shangshu Zuocheng, Tongzhi Privy Council Secretary Cai Mao and Shangshu Gongbu Lang Zheng Wangzhi successively came out to agree, one was more impassioned than the other, Li Gang was not psychologically prepared, and he was taken aback when he heard that this matter seemed to be a draw from the bottom of the kettle, but in fact it had no effect, and it would only make those people in Taiyuan and Bianliang stumble. Zhao Kai and Yang Zhi did not rebel and have been resisting the Jin people, and the actions of the imperial court will definitely stir up the nerves of the common people again.

Geng Nanzhong didn't speak, standing on one side, always observing Li Gang's expression. Wang Xiaodi, the squire of Zhongshu, couldn't help but sneer, this matter was obviously planned by Geng Nanzhong, this person is really only doing useless work; who doesn't know that the more intense the toss between King Yun and Yang Zhi, the more beneficial it will be to Song Huizong, and Song Huizong will definitely ignore it. Song Qinzong was also caught off guard, his face was blue and red for a while, expecting that there would be a major accident here, so he looked at Sun Fu to see if Sun Fu understood.

Sun Fu naturally won't come out, if this matter comes out, there is no need to mention anything like that in the future, he will definitely be beaten half to death by the students and martial arts people; Cai Mao and the three of them didn't expect to encounter such an embarrassing scene, no one said yes, and no one said no. Tang Ke waited for a long time, seeing that Song Qinzong was silent, and reluctantly came forward and said: "The princess's parents are still here, this matter is better than running Wenrunzhou, please let the emperor and the queen mother make the decision." ”

Ye Mengde, a scholar from Hanlin, said: "I'm afraid that the paperwork alone is not enough, for such an important matter, it is better to invite Lord Gao and Lord Zheng to go to Runzhou and explain the power to the Emperor in person." ”

Ye Mengde is Cai Jing's person, the intention of this proposal is sinister, how can Gao Shi and Zheng Wangzhi not save it? The two of them will never go to Runzhou, if they are rushed by Song Huizong in person, I don't know what will happen; Gao Shi is a clan, and he feels that this matter is reasonable, for the sake of the dignity of the court, so he replied coldly: "Then what is the good plan for Lord Ye?"

Ye Mengde said lightly: "Tang Xiang and Li Xiang are ready to send troops, but this arrangement is just to comfort themselves, Li Lu has no reinforcements in his hands, once Li Lu fails, what role can Hu Yanzhuo's seven thousand men and horses play." As long as three or four months pass, the Yellow River freezes, and it is not a place to cross the river, and the naval division will not be effective at all, at least 200,000 Qinwang troops will be transferred to the north of Bianliang, and the household department and the three envoys will transfer grain, grass and military salaries. ”

What Ye Mengde said was common sense, Li Gang's face flushed, he lowered his head and said silently for a while: "What Lord Ye said is extremely true, this official is a useless scholar, and military affairs are still unfamiliar. ”

Ye Mengde nodded slightly and said: "If the lower officials don't focus on state affairs, how can they come out to offend people, I will guarantee two people as assistants to adults, but I don't know if I can enter the eyes of adults; ”

Tang Ke and the others laughed, and they all thought that Ye Mengde was deliberately embarrassing Li Gang, and after Yao Pingzhong's defeat in the robbery camp, he was impeached by Zhang Jun in the name of dictatorship, and his words were fierce and unrepeatable; Zhu Shengfei was a person who was not well-known, and was originally sentenced by Tianfu. Li Gang didn't get angry, and asked seriously: "Zhang Jun, I know, what is Zhu Shengfei's talent?"

Ye Mengde thought for a moment and said: "Similar to Lu Yihao, similar talents, and similar ambitions. ”

Lu Yihao was dedicated to the Jin people by Guo Yaoshi, and now he is still imprisoned in Youzhou, Li Gang has worked with Lu Yihao for a year and is familiar with Lu Yihao; Li Gang nodded after hearing this and said: "Lord Ye, don't worry, I will meet with them." ”

Ye Mengde smiled, and then knelt down to Song Qinzong, praying for Zhishi to return to his hometown, Song Qinzong was not surprised, now there are many newcomers in the court, whether it is the main battle or the main peace, it is surprisingly always in the treatment of Cai Jing; Ye Mengde has something to do with Cai Jing, and the situation is a little embarrassing, leaving the court for a short time, leaving the public's sight, is not a bad thing for Ye Mengde. But Song Qinzong was even more afraid that Ye Mengde would go to Taiyuan, as Cai Jing's right-hand man, Ye Mengde's information in the court was not comparable to anyone in Taiyuan, and even Liang Xun could not be compared.
