Crossing Wu Dalang starts from selling cakes

Chapter 591 Zhao Shu goes to Dali!

In fact, in this era, it was originally a war-torn world.

When the Song Dynasty and the Liao Kingdom of the Jin Dynasty were at war, it was also a mess everywhere.

The same is true of the frontiers between other small countries, and it is difficult to truly enjoy peace.

Now Da Song is relatively stable.But that doesn't mean it's the same elsewhere.

It is precisely because the Song Dynasty is strong that small countries like Dali will seek asylum.

Wu Zhi was a well-known prime minister in the Song Dynasty, and Duan Yu also knew that a good relationship with Wu Zhi would help him secure his position as emperor.

But it is not so easy to cling to another force.

Duan Yu wants to exterminate the Gao family, or suppress them, but Wu Zhi can't help them.

According to history, Dali was ruled by the Duan Yu family for more than ten years, but with the rise of other forces, it has begun to threaten the Duan Yu family.

Especially now, Duan Yu's regime almost depends on the Gao family to convey it, which is a very dangerous thing.

The orders you pass on are restricted by others, and there is a problem with this imperial power.

Wu Zhi: "If my guess is correct, now Duan Yu not only gave me a gift, but probably all the ministers who can talk about it in the Song Dynasty, and Song Huizong!"

Wu Zhi's guess is not unreasonable. He can only tell Da Song about their plight and give certain benefits. The courtiers on Da Song's side are short-handed and will have more opportunities to speak for them. When Song Huizong agrees, Wu Zhi I also agree, basically this matter is settled.

Among them, Wu Xiang is the key. If Wu Zhi disagrees, it can affect Song Huizong's judgment.

So Duan Yu gave Wu Zhi a lot more gifts.

Next, according to Wu Zhi's understanding, sure enough, many officials secretly received benefits. This is the news obtained by Wu Zhi's intelligence network.

On this day, when the court came to court, Song Huizong even informed the courtiers present of the congratulatory gift sent by Duan Yu from Dali.

"Recently, the Emperor Dali sent several boxes of gifts to show their current situation. The Dali Gao family has shown signs of rebelling against the imperial power. Therefore, the Dali Emperor wants the Song Dynasty to help suppress the Gao family. What do you ministers want? said?"

Zheng Juzhong: "Your Majesty, Dali and Song Dynasty have always lived in peace and harmony. The two countries have frequent economic exchanges. Now they will pay tribute to our Song Dynasty every year. As a friend, it's okay to help them. My minister agrees with Song Dynasty to send troops to help us. They quell civil unrest!"

Zheng Juzhong has received the benefits, so he still has to say what should be said.

The Ministry of Industry Shangshu Wang Pan stood up: "My minister also agrees."

"It's just that there must be some benefits for us to help Dali. This matter can be discussed! We can't send troops easily, and we have to make Dali pay a little price."

Song Huizong laughed and said, "Wang Aiqing, the gift from Emperor Dali has already stated that they are willing to buy banknotes across the country to assimilate the Song currency with their currency, and are willing to pay [-]% more tribute every year!"

The civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty began to discuss.

Buying their currency means that Da Song can exchange paper money for their gold wealth, and their economic currency will be affected by Da Song.

Da Song can make a lot of money through this matter.

Although the neighboring countries have started to use banknotes, they have not been popularized on a large scale. Dali's move will undoubtedly benefit Song Dynasty a lot.

Secondly, it is not a lot to increase the three-tier tribute.

There are several million taels of silver.

Song Huizong: "Wu Aiqing, what do you think?"

Wu Zhi hadn't planned to mention this so quickly, after all, Wu Zhi was still considering whether to take action, war is not a trivial matter.

But now that Duan Yu has managed to such an extent that Song Huizong has come out to speak, and Wu Zhi took other people's money, he will naturally not refuse.

Wu Zhi: "Your Majesty, I feel that this matter can be helped. Dali is a vassal state of the Song Dynasty. There are internal problems on their side, and we have enough reasons to take action."

In fact, the vassal state only existed in name after the Song Dynasty became stronger in recent years.

After all, Dali is still very strong. In the past, when the two countries had good relations, they would not act rashly.

Song Huizong nodded: "Since Prime Minister Wu also agrees, then the Great Song Dynasty will send troops, just send whoever, Wu Aiqing..."

Song Huizong looked at Wu Zhi.

"Father!" Not far away, Zhao Shu hurriedly stood up: "Wu Lian has made continuous military exploits, so tired, and now he is responsible for building railways, official roads, making trains, etc., it is better to let Wu Xiang rest. Soldiers go to help Dali put down the chaos!"

In fact, there is no fight in Dali yet, but they can use this name to eliminate the Gao clan and change power again.

Zhao Gou next to him frowned when he heard this. Originally, Zhao Gou wanted to go to war. Thinking that Wu Zhi was here, if Wu Zhi wanted to go to the war, he would be offended by stealing the limelight from Prime Minister Wu.

This Zhao Shu is going to fight first, he might as well stand up and fight for it.

If this thing is successful, it is also a political achievement.

It is also a kind of capital for him to compete for the position of prince in the future, which can make his father look at him with admiration.

Zhao Shu was originally the eldest prince, and he was qualified to inherit the position of prince, so he was the best choice. Now if he is building military merits, that would be great.

The position of the crown prince is safe, and nothing will happen to him then.

Zhao Gou was a little anxious, so he stood up and said, "Father, my ministers are also willing to lead troops to Dali to quell the chaos!"

Ok?
Zhao Shu turned his head and glanced, Zhao Gou also wanted to compete with him?

The title of Prince Zhao Shu was abolished because of the last incident, but he can still discuss and participate in politics as a prince, and this is his opportunity to perform.

In Zhao Shu's view, it is not difficult to put down the civil strife in Dali.That Wu Xiang led his troops out, and even the Liao Kingdom and the Jin Kingdom could easily wipe out such a big country. He didn't believe that he would not be able to pacify Dali with his troops.

What's more, it is only to quell the internal strife. It is no exaggeration to say that he, Zhao Shu, is confident even if he pacifies Dali. What is a civil strife?
The opportunity for meritorious service is in front of you, and if you don't fight for it, you won't have the opportunity.

Zhao Shu: "Royal father, let my son go! And last time I made a mistake, I am willing to make up for my mistakes, and I ask my father to do it!"

Song Huizong saw Zhao Shu kneeling on the ground pitifully begging for this opportunity, and then looked at Zhao Gou.

He sighed, thought for a while, after all, Zhao Shu is the eldest prince, and if nothing else happens, he will be the future prince, so it is not impossible for him to experience it.

However, he still wanted to ask Minister Wu for his opinion. It was a question of who to send to the expedition.

Zhao Gou is full of joy at the moment, waiting for Wu Zhi to recommend himself, however, he is disappointed.

"Since His Highness wants to go out in person, I have no objection! Let King Su go!"

Although the title of King Zhao Shusu is gone, it doesn't prevent Wu Zhi from calling him that.

Moreover, Wu Zhi didn't think Zhao Shu could do this well.

Dali is not a small country, but a country that is much stronger than the average country. Since the Gao clan can threaten the imperial power, it can be seen that they can intervene in military power and many government affairs, and Duan Yu is helpless.

At this point, going directly to put down the chaos is to fight against the whole of Dali, and a slight accident will cause huge losses.

This Zhao Shu really thought that fighting is so simple, and Wu Zhi can do it, that's because he has an affair.

Did he hang up?

no?
Do you have Wu Zhi's tyrannical physique?nor.

That being the case, where did Zhao Shu, who had never fought a war, have the confidence and confidence?
So Wu Zhi not only did not refute, but also agreed.

The recommendation is Zhao Shu, not Zhao Gou.

At this moment, Zhao Gou was stunned, his mind went blank, it turned out that he had flattered Wu Zhi at the beginning, but now it has no effect at all, anyone who goes to war is a matter of Wu Zhi's words, but he doesn't help himself!

This made Zhao Gou look unbelievable. Doesn't Prime Minister Wu want to support himself as the prince?this……

He doesn't understand!
Zhao Shu is the one who opposes Wu Zhi, so it's not good to let him build military merits?
Zhao Gou didn't say anything.

Knowing Wu Zhi's attitude, Zhao Gou felt completely chilled!

Without Wu Zhi's help, it is impossible for him to become the prince!
Then the other courtiers did not object.

Of course, some people recommended Wu Zhi to go, but Wu Zhi agreed, saying that other things are useless.

Zhao Shu was overjoyed, he really didn't expect Wu Zhi to help him.

So he immediately called for [-] troops to go to quell the chaos, and Song Huizong agreed, but the army was not transferred from Wu Zhi, but from the Tongguan Forbidden Army.

Tong Guan felt a little upset, would this Zhao Shu know how to fight?What should I do if I take my [-] soldiers away and the whole army is wiped out?
Hearing that Zhao Shu was going to lead [-] troops, a minister stood up and said, "Your Majesty, Your Highness has no experience in leading troops, so he hastily led [-] troops. It's okay if there is no war. Once a war breaks out, the entire army may be wiped out. I suggest sending A general went to assist. For example, General Yue!"

"General Yue has won many battles and victories in the Western Xia border war. It is best to send him to assist!"

"Well, it makes sense!" Song Huizong said, "Yue Fei!"

"The minister is here!" Yue Fei stood up.

"You and Zhao Shu will quell the civil strife in Dali!"

"According to the order!"

Zhao Shu was taken aback for a moment: "Father, it's just a small civil strife in Dali, one humble minister is enough!"

Zhao Shu was eager to make contributions and did not want Yue Fei to follow him.

Song Huizong waved his hand and refuted it.

Insist on letting Yue Fei be together.

Zhao Shu also had no choice but to accept the order, feeling a little unhappy.

Why?If you are with Yue Fei, you will only say that it is Yue Fei's credit for winning the battle!

What Zhao Shu wants is all the credit, which will be his capital to inherit the crown prince's position in the future, so what's the matter with Yue Fei?

Until now, Zhao Shu couldn't do anything about it, but after all, he seized the opportunity.

So on the second day, he ordered troops and generals, rectified the army, horses, food and supplies, and on the fifth day, the army set off and set off for Dali.

Leading a mighty team, sitting on a war horse, wearing black armor and holding a sword, Zhao Shu was in an unprecedentedly excited mood at this moment. Looking into the distance, he had a kind of passion for galloping the world, this feeling of leading troops to fight ,very nice!
It's the smell of power.

It is also a yearning for Zhao Shu.

Although Zhao Shu had gone out with the army to experience things before, he was usually in the rear and had no command authority, so he didn't feel this way at all, but now he leads the team and the command authority belongs to him.

Even Yue Fei is just a foil.

Yue Fei was silent at the side, he knew that the reason why Zhao Shu was sent this time was most likely because His Majesty wanted him to build military merits, and then confer the crown prince in one fell swoop. A guess, but probably not wrong.

It is not a big problem to quell the chaos, and the army may not be mobilized. If this is the case, the credit will be obtained almost easily.

Because Da Song is very strong, if the Gao family is sober, he will definitely not dare to confront Da Song and hand over power directly. Such a large army is used for deterrence and will not really fight.

It depends on Zhao Shu's luck.
