224 Calling for help
Wang Zhong's questioning made Cai Jing and the others stunned, and at the same time looked at Emperor Zhao Ji.
Zhao Ji is afraid when he sees Wang Zhong now, how can he oppose Wang Zhong's words?
Cai Jing is an old fritter, and his ability to observe words and emotions is even more perfect, a month ago because of the Manichaean assassination of Zhao Ji, he was forcibly told to return to his hometown, but in less than a month, he can return to the court, and the official is restored, so he naturally has his own ability.
"Wang Feng, you have never participated in the court, so it is not clear, the war between the two countries is not trivial, and the slightest carelessness will be in danger of national annihilation. Cai Jing looked at Zhao Ji, but said to Wang Zhong:
"Besides, Western Xia has been eyeing the West from the side, if we start a war with Liao, what will we do to resist the attack of Western Xia?"
Wang Zhong is enshrined in the royal family, and he has just come into contact with the government, Cai Jing originally thought that he was a political novice, and he could stand here with his proud martial arts.
In fact, before Wang Zhong joined the worship court, Shi Tai, the only worshipper of the royal family, had never been involved in politics, so although Cai Jing and several civil officials knew that the martial arts of the worship were very high, they did not take him seriously.
Two days ago, Zhao Ji suddenly ordered Shi Tai and Wang Zhong to participate in the court situation as national teachers, and Cai Jing only took Zhao Ji's whim and didn't take them to heart.
This time, Cai Jing openly scolded Wang Zhong, on the one hand, it was a temptation, and on the other hand, he vaguely saw Zhao Ji's hostility to Wang Zhong.
Cai Jing can sit in the position of left minister, in addition to his own talent, he relies on flattery to Zhao Ji, so he can guess Zhao Ji's thoughts.
It's just that this time Cai Jing guessed wrong, Zhao Ji was not hostile to Wang Zhong, but hated Wang Zhong, but he couldn't do anything about Wang Zhong for the time being.
Now that the Western Xia is in a period of transfer of power, the country is in chaos, and there is no way to care about the war between our Great Song Dynasty and the Liao State, and the monarch of the Western Xia Kingdom may still wish that we and the Liao State would lose both, so that he can profit from it. Wang Zhong said to Cai Jing.
"That's right, once we really start a war with the Liao State, won't we cheapen the Western Xia for nothing?" said Liang Shicheng to Wang Zhong.
Liang Shicheng and Cai Jingjing are the main and cards, so they naturally help Cai Jing.
"The battle of Song and Liao is inevitable, this is a grudge accumulated for a hundred years, but this is not the time to do the war of destroying the country!" Zhu Mian also advised Wang Zhongdao.
"I agree with what Lord Zhu said! Now is indeed not the time to fight a war with the Liao State to destroy the country!" Wang Zhong nodded.
Cai Jing's several lords and factions were overjoyed when they heard that Wang Zhong was showing weakness.
"However, we don't have to take the initiative to make peace with Liao!" Wang Zhong said.
The seed master was puzzled: "What does the kingdom master mean by this?"
Wang Zhong said indifferently: "The Great Song Dynasty can exchange war for peace!"
"Da Liao is not ready for a big war at the border this time, but he wants to fight the autumn wind against my Great Song Dynasty, if we take the initiative to sue for peace, we will just fall into the trap of Liao!"
Cai Jing frowned and said: "The 300,000 troops of the Liao State have been mobilized, and they can cross the border at any time, how can it be just a bluff!"
Wang Zhong said with a smile: "If the Liao State wants to fight, the 300,000 army has already been attacked, how can it be delayed until now!"
The seed master said: "So what does the kingdom master mean, this is our chance to return to attack the Liao Kingdom?"
Wang Zhong nodded and said: "Yes, if you have a heart or not, as long as I am united in the Great Song Dynasty, it will not be difficult to teach Liao a lesson, and then it will be much easier to negotiate!"
Wang Zhong's plan is very simple, taking advantage of the fact that the Liao State is not ready, the Great Song Dynasty takes the initiative to attack and bite down a piece of meat of the 300,000 Liao army with lightning speed, which can not only show that the Great Song Dynasty is strong in armament, not afraid of a war, but also can deter other countries, and at the same time avoid being beaten by the Liao State in the autumn wind!
Instead of giving the money to the Liao State as compensation, it is better to make a desperate bet and use it as a military salary to extinguish the arrogance of the Liao State.
The Lords and factions led by Cai Jing did not agree with Wang Zhong's statement, believing that it was too dangerous to rush into a war, and once defeated, the consequences would be serious.
However, the seed master admired Wang Zhong very much, supported his plan, and argued with the Lord and the faction, and finally the people of the two factions looked at Zhao Ji at the same time, hoping that he would have an idea.
Cai Jing knew Zhao Ji very well and knew that although he had great ambitions, he was shallow in his talent and timid as a mouse, and he was absolutely unwilling to make up his mind to fight with Liao.
It's just that this time, Zhao Ji is unusual.
"I feel that what Wang Guoshi said is very true, the Great Song Dynasty has always been too weak, so he is often bullied by the Liao State, and this time is an opportunity to be ashamed!" Zhao Ji said righteously.
Cai Jing's smile froze on his face, and he looked at Zhao Ji with some doubts, and he couldn't figure out what Zhao Ji meant in his heart.
At this time, I only heard Zhao Ji speak again: "It's just that this battle must not be defeated, I hope that the Kingdom Division can personally go to the front line to supervise the battle to ensure that nothing goes wrong!"
Wang Zhong's eyes narrowed, and he glanced at Zhao Ji deeply, and Zhao Ji, who was frightened, hurriedly said: "If Wang Guoshi thinks it's inappropriate, I will send others to go!"
Zhao Ji's careful appearance of angering Wang Zhong made Cai Jing even more confused!
Wang Zhong was silent for a long time, and finally nodded and agreed to go to the front line, with him, a master of the "Heaven and Man Realm", joining the front line, this time he was more sure of the battle with Liao, but he, the "Heaven and Man Realm", joined the Song Army, I am afraid that Xiao Dingguo will not sit idly by!
"Shi Guoshi, I don't know if you are interested in going to the front line together!"
Shi Tai knew that Wang Zhong was going to pull him together to contain Xiao Dingguo, but two to one, no matter how their side had the advantage, Shi Tai thought about it for a while, and then nodded and agreed.
The battle with Liao was decided in this way, Zhao Ji also announced the dissolution of the meeting, and Wang Zhong and Shi Tai returned to the worship courtyard to prepare for the road.
Cai Jing and the others walked out of the palace with questions and returned home, Cai Jing hadn't gone far before a small eunuch rushed over and handed him a food box, saying that it was Zhao Ji's reward.
Cai Jing didn't think much about it, took the food box home, opened it and took a look, but found a secret edict from Zhao Ji in a piece of pastry!
On the other side, after Xiao Dingguo returned to the capital of the Great Liao Kingdom, he did not stay for too long, and headed west overnight, towards the Great Snow Mountain of Tubo.
There is a big wheel temple on the big snow mountain, which is respected as the state religion by the Tubo country, and the big wheel Ming king Gu Mozhi was born in the big wheel temple, and the only master of the heavenly and human realm in the Tubo country is in the big wheel temple.
Before Xiao Dingguo arrived, a huge round of momentum erupted in the Dalun Temple, and the fierce momentum indicated the identity of the "Heaven and Man Realm".
A little monk appeared in front of Xiao Dingguo, this little monk had clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, wearing an apricot-yellow Tibetan monk's robe, looking no more than twelve or thirteen years old, but the "coercion of heaven and man" on his body indicated his identity as "heaven and man realm".
"Senior Xiao has come to Dalun Temple, and Mo Luoke has missed his welcome!" the little monk said to Xiao Dingguo.
Xiao Dingguo said directly to the little monk: "Junior, you owed this king a favor at the beginning, and now it's time to pay it back!"
"The little monk's martial arts are low, I don't know what can help the seniors?" Mo Luoke did not rashly agree to Xiao Dingguo.
"Help this king contain the Great Song Dynasty to worship, and this favor will be repaid!" Xiao Dingguo said calmly.
"Great Song Offerings?" Morocco was puzzled: "Shi Tai?"
Xiao Dingguo shook his head and said: "It's a junior who has just broken through the realm of heaven and man, you just need to contain him for one day for this king!"
