As for the bitter cold place in Yunzhou, everyone knows it.Now that the border between the two countries is like this, it not only consumes money and food from the court, but also makes the people on the border nowhere to live.

However, my family members are free to discuss whatever they want. When the foreign envoy told him this, Dou Bian became a little suspicious.

Since Yunzhou is a place of bitter cold, the two countries have been friendly for nearly a hundred years, and Beiliao has never been abandoned.Moreover, even if he, Dou Bian, did not know about military matters, he also understood the effectiveness of the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun for the state...~ It was a barrier, a barrier against nomads since ancient times.

It is a fact that money and food were spent, but this time it was not heard that the war dragged the court into trouble, but it was said that the spoils of war seemed to cover most of the expenses.

Since it was a waste of money and food, he could have withdrawn his army first in Beiliao. What's the matter with wandering around the border of Hebei Province?

Dou Bian was not that kind of pedantic literati. Speaking of which, there was not a pedantic literati in their class.Ouyang Xiang's princess examination, the selection of scholars obviously focused on policy theory, which is why Dou Bian was able to get the first place.

In the second year of Jiayou, even Su Shi, Su Zizhan, who became the leader of the literary world, was not a pedantic civil servant.

Dou Bian slowed down, breaking free from the emotions brought by Xiao Zhuoer, and once again considered the current situation objectively.

Zhang Dun told himself that the Talking Martial Hall recorded many conversations between the officials and the soldiers of the first-generation guard battalion, and talked about their positions.

Based on the official definition of stance, Dou Bian felt that Xiao Zhuoer had no basis for standing on the Song Dynasty's stand, let alone speaking for the second-class Han people in the Northern Liao Dynasty on the border.

There is only one thing left, and that is, the court of Beiliao can't bear it anymore.

The Zhengshitang has explained that it strives for interests as much as possible...~ It does not mean to strive for interests based on the pre-war period, but to strive for interests under the current situation.

Dou Bian felt that he should understand the meaning of the court.

"Brother Xiao is polite, and his words are reasonable. The king of your country was fooled by powerful ministers to cause this disaster. It really deserves our vigilance."

"Brother Xiao doesn't know something. It's hard to see my Majesty the King of the Great Song Dynasty. I remember that when my Majesty the Great Song Dynasty was still the crown prince, because Annan helped the Nong family to disrupt Guangnan, he led the army to destroy the entire northern part of Annan..."

"I have heard what Brother Dou said. I heard that His Majesty the Emperor of your country returned Langsong and Gaobang prefectures. Now, I, Daliao, have the same intention!"

Dou Bian cites this example to say that the officials are tough and not good at compromise, but Xiao Zhuoer did not expect that Xiao Zhuoer would take advantage of the slope to get off the donkey.

"Brother Xiao doesn't know, that time Annan almost emptied the national treasury, paid our Great Song's war compensation, and at the same time supplied our Great Song's food at a low price indefinitely to let His Majesty withdraw his troops."

"Then there was collusion with Dali's Gao family. As a result, His Majesty the Great Song sent troops again...~The commander is the current Hebei Dao pacifier. That time, except for the Duan family, other nobles in Dali were slaughtered!"

"Brother Xiao, it's hard to predict the holy will now. The 20 army marched to the north. Brother Yu saw the report, and the troops had already reached the area of ​​Yuzhou. Once the army from the east of the river breaks through Weizhou, I'm afraid they will go all the way east. It's not impossible to return to Beijing from the Hebei road. Possibly. I think that when His Majesty and Di Qing led the army to quell the Guangnan Rebellion, they used Dali to return to the court!"

Could it be that the imperial court really had this plan?Dou Bian bald so casually that he felt a little reckless.

This is a negotiation, if I accidentally leaked the military plane...~

At this time, not only Xiao Zhuoer's face turned pale, but even Dou Bian couldn't sit still.

This matter... If according to the secrecy law, I would have to go far away to Yazhou.

This...~ This mouth, why is it faster than the mind?Before I could figure it out, I actually exported it.

Dou Bian put on a show, and took a teacup... I remembered that this was at Dutingyi, not Dou's house.After taking a sip, he moistened his somewhat dry throat, stood up and patted Xiao Zhuoer's shoulder, and left...

Xiao Zhuoer's mind is full of the Great Song Firearms Army that broke through from Weizhou...~The 20 Firearms Army went east from Weizhou, and then went south...~

At that time, Chen Bing and the 10,000+ cavalry in Hebei Road will be flanked by Song State again, repeating the same mistakes!

This is a catastrophe... Until Daliao can't figure out how to deal with firearms, he must not fight Song again!

Xiao Zhuoer was frightened and didn't pay attention to Dou Bian's abnormality at all.

Dou Bian was also frightened...~

"Fuxiang, I'm an official... This is really an unintentional act. I don't know about the imperial court's plan, and I just speculated like this to intimidate Xiao Zhuoer! Fuxiang, I deserve death! But, Fuxiang, We should ask the imperial court to take measures as soon as possible to prevent the Liao envoy from reporting this matter to the Northern Liao court!"

Trembling, Dou Bian pleaded guilty to Fu Bi, but unexpectedly, Fu Bi was also shocked by his thoughts.

Chapter 546

"Your Majesty, what Dou Yanfa said is true?"

Fu Bi is not sure whether the officials really have such a plan.

Take one step and see three steps... the government has always been like this.

Now think about it, since the start of the war, the officials have been worrying day and night, watching the sand table in the council hall and never leaving.

It's just the battle on the East Road, after watching for so long, those mountains and rivers have already been seared in my mind, why is this so!

Zhao Xi looked at the gentlemen, and then at this Jinshi who had been in Jiayou's second year...

"I have thought about it, or I have thought about it..."

"Your Majesty, please go on an expedition! Absolutely not!"

"Your Majesty, the advantage of the new army lies in the firearms. When the army goes out of Yanmen, the workshop city cannot supply armaments as well as in the pass. Your Majesty, this is putting the army at risk!"

"Your Majesty, the army has been on the march for nearly a year, and the veterans are exhausted. It may be beyond our power to fight again!"

have to!I see you are scared.

"Masters, you have been worrying too much. If there are another 20 new troops, this matter will definitely be feasible. But now... Forget it, the morale of this big victory was wasted!"

Think about how many times the officials mentioned soldiers... It seems that the officials really have more than enough energy this time.

But looking at the current situation, everyone in the Zhengshitang also thinks it is a pity.

There are less than 20 new troops stationed in Bianliang. The entire borders of Hedong Road, Hebei Road, Huanqing, Qinzhou, Xihe, Yanyan, and Linfu are fully prepared for war. The [-] new troops are really not enough.

This still drove all the new troops from Jinghu, Jiangnan, and Chengdu to the north.

If there are still 20 new troops to move, half of them will be sent to Hedong, half to Hebei, and the two sides will attack... There is even the possibility of recovering Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures in one fell swoop!

Pity!

The ministers are not really opposed to the war, but are worried about the new army soldiers from the bottom of their hearts.

The new army, let them see the hope of expanding the territory; the new army, let them find a way to control the army without generals... If it weren't for this, no one would dare to let the nearly 20 troops stay outside.

The new army is inseparable from armaments, which is an important reason to reassure the court.

I also know that after leaving Yanmen Pass, it is very difficult to supply firearms to the army currently operating in the Yunzhou area.

Under such circumstances, attacking Weizhou and joining the defenders on Hebei Road...will cause considerable losses.

Fortunately, the officials did not lose their minds because of the victory.

"Officials, veterans think that even if the imperial court has no intention of ordering the eastward army of Hedong, they should be on guard against the Duting post and replace the embassy to warn the Liao envoy..."

Fu Bi is not interested in military affairs, but he is too familiar with struggle, especially this kind of intrigue.
