I became the son of Renzong

Chapter 682 All crimes belong to me

Every time the front comes to report, it is a case of collective discussion among cabinet ministers.This can be regarded as a top-secret but top-notch event for the imperial court at this stage.

In order to reflect the intention of working together, Zhao Xi opened the memorial in front of the public several times... Zhao Xi is not particularly sure about the situation ahead.

He believes that one person counts the short and the others count the long.

The first thing to open is Wang Shao's memorial.Very good, Zhao Xi was very satisfied, and coordinated with the actions of the Pathfinder team ahead, sent troops to Qingtang to attract the attention of all forces in the northwest.

This should be done!

"Fu Xiang, this matter is approved. After you have a look, you can draft an edict! At the same time, it is time to mobilize the army with great fanfare."

Taking down Qingtang should not be too difficult for the new army equipped with firearms. What's more, with Wang Shao's careful management in Hehuang these years, many Tubo tribes may not return to Qingtang City.Dong Zhan and Guizhang, even if they were considered talents in their lifetime, they are powerless to recover at this level.

The mobilization of soldiers with great fanfare really flattered him.

Cabinet ministers are relaxed.For Guochao, it is a new experience and wonderful that the court can be so relaxed when fighting abroad.

"Actually, the Qingtang Department has always been pro-national and imperial. If the old minister remembers correctly, Dong Zhan still holds the official title of my Great Song Dynasty. With the current three-level decision-making system, I am afraid he can even reach the political level. "

"For Dong felt, perhaps the best option is to attach it now."

"It's really possible!"

"He just doesn't look like Neifu. The tribes under his jurisdiction probably don't want to fight anymore. They can live a good life by herding sheep and harvesting wool. Who would like to fight."

"Officials, if Dong Zhan is attached and the army is mobilized..."

This is a problem.In fact, for Qingtang, Guochao can win at any time, and the garrison of Hehuang is enough.The reason for mobilizing the army with such great fanfare is to attract the attraction of Xixia and Huangtou Huihe, and reduce the pressure on the Pathfinder team.

"Whether Dong Xun is attached or not has nothing to do with the mobilization of the army. Even if Dong Xun is forced to attach himself due to internal and external pressure, I still need my consent. How about this, tell Wang Shao that Dong Xun can be attached, but he must cooperate with the court to make this happen." The play is over."

"In addition, the conditions attached to Dong Zhan must be to allow Dong Zhan to enter the Central Plains, disarm all the tribesmen, and disperse the settlements of those tribes loyal to him."

Zhao Xi didn't have the idea of ​​breeding tigers, let alone burying himself with a bunch of foreign generals like in the previous dynasty.Although Zhao Xi does not have extreme nationalism, he still needs to deal with ethnic issues carefully in today's society that does not place much emphasis on national identity.

If you want to identify with a court, you need the policy of the court to be in place and treat the attached tribes well with the so-called national treatment. Under such circumstances, there must be a transition of one or two generations before they can truly integrate.

Now the reason why the Tubo tribe can be submissive depends on the benefits, the improvement of the quality of life.For thousands of years, the relationship between foreign races and the Central Plains dynasty has always been changed according to whether the Central Plains dynasty is strong or not.

The previous dynasty was a dynasty of mixed races. In the final analysis, it was finally defeated by the alien race's inconsistency.

This is not the future, the sense of national identity is above all else, regardless of race, let alone nationality.

The matter of Qingtang is not a big deal, just two or three sentences are settled.Isn't this a kind of pride?At the beginning, Guochao tried his best to win over Xixia so that he could add a boost when fighting against Xixia. Now, Qingtang, who could have made Xixia bow down by himself, is actually not a big deal in the cabinet.

The cabinet ministers were all waiting to read the report of the Pathfinder team, and that was what needed attention, but they found that the officials were staring at the report in a daze.

"They are right, all the sins are due to me!"

If I knew this was the case, I might as well want to screen a report.But now, it's already like this, there is no way.Besides, from the bottom of his heart, Zhao Xi still wanted to change Guochao's understanding on this issue.

This time I pressed down strongly, and I will do the same next time, and slowly let the ministers and workers know that I, the king, have a firm attitude on this issue.

"There is nothing wrong with the Pathfinder team. The order is from me, and I will take care of everything. You can take a look at it, but this matter ends here, and I don't want there to be messy discussions in the court. And, in Regarding the matter of penetrating and controlling this channel, all such matters shall be handled according to my wishes!"

The report has not been put down by the government, and the cabinet ministers are still confused, but seeing the serious expressions of the officials, the cabinet also knows that it will not be a trivial matter.

First Fu Bi, and then all the cabinet ministers read the report in order...

No one spoke up, because the officials directly set the tone for this matter.

In fact, to say that the civil servants of the imperial court are really compassionate, they all have a compassionate heart, thinking that all beings are equal... that is pure nonsense.When civil servants killed people, they were more cruel than military generals, especially when civil servants killed their own soldiers in the early days of the country, they had no compassion at all.

Even in the time of the first emperor, the civil servants who commanded the army would kill soldiers at will.

The reason why the indiscriminate killing of generals is regarded as the crime of impeachment of generals, in fact, in the final analysis, is the way and means of restricting generals and suppressing generals.

Now that the status of generals in the country has just improved, Zhao Xi is very worried that there will be another wave of civil and military struggles in the court.So I set the tone first... This matter was ordered by me, Zhao Xi, not only this time, but also in the future when similar situations occur!

"Official..."

"Fu Xiang, I said it, this is my emperor's order, they are not wrong! You don't need to say too much, Fu Xiang!"

Zhao Xi was a little annoyed.Fu Bi is the prime minister, and the reason why he is the prime minister is because of his trust in him and the tacit cooperation for many years.Unexpectedly, Fu Bi would speak out at this time.

"No, official, the old minister thought that he could recruit servants in the westward march."

Regarding this attitude towards this matter, Fu Bi will naturally not object to the officials. Even he, in the situation of Pathfinder, would make such a decision. The ministers and workers in the military affairs will make such decisions.

"Servant army? Fu Xiang, maybe after forming a strategic posture to attack Xixia from Hexi, you can recruit the servant army when attacking Xixia from Hexi, but now, when we penetrate and control the troop transport channel, let's forget about the servant army."

Seeing what Fu Bi said, Zhao Xi softened his tone.

At this time, he needs to settle the matter with absolute power, without allowing any noise.As for Fu Bi's intentions, this is a strategic category. As long as the Pathfinder team is not held accountable for indiscriminate killings, other issues can be discussed.

Chapter 683 Out of sight, out of mind

From the perspective of crime, Zhao Xi can be said to have committed a serious crime this time.

Fortunately, there is no convention at this time, and there is no mention of humanitarianism. Otherwise, just a gathering point will make him, the king, a target of thousands of people.

Because, the Pathfinder team is not polite at all.

The attack and killing started in Haishi.The killing began when nearly 200 people sneaked into the gathering point.

The stability of the gathering point for many years has made these survivors forget the need to be vigilant, and even those outposts are tantamount to nonsense for the Pathfinder team.

In fact, killing people is not a comfortable thing, even these soldiers who are called killers don't like to do such things.Because they are not fighting, but are easily assassinated, which is the same as facing an unarmed and powerless person.

"Thousands of dead bodies, it's very troublesome to deal with in the end. We only have two or three hundred people, and there are no civilian husbands here..."

When the attack started, Gao Jingting and Zhong Jianzhong led their team to form a symbolic encirclement circle around the gathering point, preparing to hunt and kill those who slipped through the net.

Gao Jingting has been finishing this journey, covering up the traces for the first four teams, and has always had a habit of thinking about the future.Looking at the gathering point, I couldn't help but feel a little worried.The disposal of this dead body is too troublesome, and the soldiers are likely to be followed directly behind. They must make this passage clean.

"If it doesn't work, use firearms, just use firearms to flatten this area!"

Zhong Jianzhong is also aware of this problem.Once all the people at the gathering point are killed, these dead bodies must be dealt with, and the best way is to bury them.Since it is buried, it is better to simply blow it up with gunpowder...

"Just use gunpowder! With the carrying capacity of five teams, it is estimated that the carrying capacity of one team can blow up this place. Anyway, houses like theirs can't be used as barracks."

"Are you sure we're going to build the barracks on dead bodies?"

"Not necessarily. For such a large area, mark this place and choose another barracks."

The teasing conversation between Gao Jingting and Zhong Jianzhong was actually covering up the unnatural emotions in his heart.No one wants to do such a thing.The two of them were better, but they knew very well what happened at the gathering point.
