Come to Song Dynasty with the system

Chapter 843 Giving Gifts to Zhao Song (Additional Update)

Zhang Jian left Yuancheng in the afternoon and began to go south. When he arrived at the border of Liao and Song Dynasties, he met General Wang Xin again.

Wang Xin was considered an "old friend" of the Liao Kingdom. Three years ago, the two sides just stopped fighting.But now, because of Su Shi, they have a common "goal" and can now sit together and chat about the situation.

What I have to say is that things are impermanent.

Sure enough, there are no permanent enemies, only permanent interests.

The two of them were sitting in the courtyard under the moon. Zhang Jian wanted to learn more about Su Shi from Wang Xin's mouth.

Wang Xin also took this opportunity to express his emotions.

Wang Xin was surprised that Su Shi could destroy Goryeo and build his own Dragon Empire within two years, and he also felt a little envious in his heart.

But it's just envy. If it were him, he wouldn't be able to do it anyway. For no other reason than a food and grass problem, all his confidence would be destroyed.

From ancient times to the present, wars have been fought with money. If you don’t have money, you can’t buy food and weapons. If you don’t have anything, what can you use to fight others? Do you rely on your mouth?

Even if you rely on only one mouth, you must first eat enough to have strength.Otherwise, it’s all just a thought.

"The first time I heard about Su Shi was that he used some method to cure King Jing's physical illness, which attracted the attention of the Holy One... The first time I really saw him, it was when he was from When you came back from the massacre in the Liao Kingdom, I was surprised at how young the other party was. It was the first time we met, and we had a great conversation..."

Wang Xin began to reminisce and expressed some of his impressions and feelings about Su Shi.

These things are just family talk and are not considered secrets.Besides, once Su Shi really defeated the Liao Kingdom, Zhao Song would not be able to get any benefits. After all, Su Shi was forced to escape from Zhao Song, so who knows if they will hold grudges?

From a certain perspective, destroying Su Shi was not only the idea of ​​the Liao Kingdom, but also the wish of Zhao Song.Now just saying something about this person is nothing.

Zhang Jian listened carefully. It was almost dawn before Wang Xin stopped talking.This night gave Zhang Jian a deeper understanding of Su Shi.

He relied on his medical skills to get ahead, followed a trade route that was unknown until now, and then used it to recruit troops and gradually grow.

This person has a straightforward personality and is decisive in doing things. He has a common problem among young people, which is that he cannot bear the slightest grievance.

But he also has a view of the overall situation. Some things may seem like risky moves, but they actually have a bottom line that belongs to him.He will not be changed by any external pressure in matters of right and wrong. He is a bit like a dazed young man, but sometimes he is also like an old fox who has lived for decades and does things very safely.

It is not surprising that some of the above mentioned things fall on one person, but when all of them are attached to one person, it is a bit strange, and even gives people a very incredible feeling.

After one night, Zhang Jian seemed to understand Su Shi better, but he was even more unclear about it.

With a lot of doubts, Zhang Jian got back on the road and went straight to Bianliang, the capital of Zhao and Song Dynasties. He gained nothing at all that night. For example, Wang Xin was persuaded by him and decided to write a memorial to Your Majesty, you put forward Su Shi's threat theory and suggested that the Liao Kingdom should be given some help within its capabilities, etc.

By the time he arrived at Bianliang City after a long journey, it happened to be the 20th day of the deadline given by Su Shi.

He didn't know that just tomorrow, Su Shi's Dragon Army would launch an attack on the Liao Kingdom. Once they arrived at the Bianliang City Station, Zhang Jian didn't even bother to rest, so he directly asked to meet Renzong Zhao Zhen.

After this period of recuperation, Zhao Zhen's health got better, and he was able to go to court to listen to government affairs during important events.

But he is the emperor of Zhao and Song Dynasty, how can he be seen by a foreign minister just by asking?In addition to the officials of Honglu Temple, there was also a minister, Wen Yanbo, who was in charge of receiving him.

Wen Yanbo made a mistake with the Xixia Alliance last time and misjudged the situation, which almost put Zhao and Song in danger.

After returning to Bianliang from the Western Region, he was first reprimanded by the officials, but as he gave out a lot of benefits and many people in the civil service system spoke for him, his position was not lost.

A while ago, Zhao Zhen was ill and resting. When Empress Cao was listening to the government, Wen Yanbo saw that Zhao Yunrang was about to gain power, so he took the initiative to vote for him and was entrusted with important tasks. Although he was not promoted to prime minister, he already had a certain degree of power. real power.

This time the Liao people sent an envoy. After Wen Yanbo got wind of it, he volunteered to come.

The commotion on Su Shi's side was so great that even Zhao Song, who was still far away, got a lot of news.

When some people heard the news that Su Shi destroyed Goryeo first and then went to war with Liao, they couldn't help but sigh. This is really an unstoppable leader and a real militant.

This matter spread, and everyone had different attitudes towards what Su Shi had done.

Some knowledgeable people were secretly happy. Su Shi's trouble would be a headache for the Liao Kingdom, and they would not cause trouble for them in the future.Zhao Song will have more opportunities and time to develop, which is definitely a good thing.

If Zhao and Song can really seize the opportunity and mobilize the Northern Army to the west, it is not impossible for the two most capable armies of Zhao and Song to unite and severely damage Xixia.

Once Zhao and Song had solved the trouble in the west, only the Liao Kingdom in the north was left. At that time, it was not impossible to gather all their strength to recapture the long-lost sixteen states of Yanyun.彡彡訁凊

But it's a pity that people who hold this idea are just thinking about it.Now Zhao and Song have not even solved the problems of Li and Tang, so where can they find the extra energy to solve the problems of Xixia?

The above are the thoughts of some people, but what more people think is, isn't it good for the world to be peaceful?

Zhao Song's military was a little weaker, but so what?As long as there is no chaos in the world, they would rather be idle fish, playing like a monk beating the clock every day.

As for the future of Zhao Song, maybe a capable majesty will appear and the trouble can be solved.But before that, isn’t it beautiful to eat, drink, have fun, and enjoy every day?

Different from these two opinions, Wen Yanbo's idea is to use force to fight.

Perhaps this is difficult to accomplish, and in the eyes of some people, it is a bit fanciful, but he firmly believes that as long as the balance is right, it may not be impossible to take advantage of it without using a single soldier.

With this idea in mind, Wen Yanbo came to see Zhang Jian and wanted to take the opportunity to ask for benefits.What he didn't expect was that as soon as they met, Zhang Jian gave him a big gift, saying that as long as Zhao and Song could send troops to help Liao defeat the dragon this time, they were willing to give the land of Yanyun and the six states.

After sending it to six states, although there are still ten states that have not been returned, this is already a big improvement.At least this does not seem to be difficult, but it is something that none of the emperors of Zhao and Song Dynasties have done.

Zhang Jian's generosity made Wen Yanbo extremely moved. He had a feeling that his opportunity to make great achievements was about to come.For the sake of this victory, when Zhang Jian proposed that Zhao Song send troops and provide food, he did not even bargain, but said that he personally agreed and would soon report the matter to the officials. I will give Liao a reply sooner.

Wen Yanbo rushed away in excitement, and soon the news that the Liao Kingdom was returning to the six states of Yanyun spread throughout Bianliang City.

This is also Wen Yanbo's intention. He just wants more people to know about this matter. In this way, whoever wants to stop this matter will face strong public pressure.

In the palace, after Zhao Zhen got the news, his spirits were lifted and he felt that his physical condition seemed to be more energetic than before. "Zhang Daban, inform the ministers that there will be a meeting early tomorrow morning to discuss the matter of Liao envoys entering the capital."

Ever since he fell ill, Zhao Zhen knew that it would be difficult to strengthen Zhao Song on his own.

If development is not enough, Zhao Zhen only wants to maintain success.He hopes that his son, King Jing Zhao Xi, will grow up early so that he can hand over this huge burden to his son, so that after his death, he can face his ancestors with peace of mind.

Unexpectedly, just when he gave up hope, such a good thing would happen to the world. The Liao Kingdom was actually tortured by Su Shi and asked Zhao and Song for help.

Thinking about every time since he ascended the throne, when the envoys from the Liao Kingdom came, he didn't give them a look. What about bowing to them?

Now that the opportunity has arisen, of course Zhao Zhen must seize it. He will personally preside over the imperial meeting tomorrow. Although his body may not be able to hold on for too long, thinking that he can regain Yan Yun's lost land, he still decides to work with the group. Please discuss this carefully.

After Zhang Mao received Zhao Zhen's order, he arranged the matter early and informed all the important ministers.

Those who were high enough to participate in the great court meeting were all thinking about their speeches that night and how to make a splash in this matter tomorrow. It would be best if they could leave their names in history.

In the post house, Zhang Jian also fell asleep very late. He was also thinking about how many soldiers would be finally decided at Zhao Song's court meeting tomorrow.

The Mongolians had a small population, but they all sent [-] troops. With such a large population, Zhao and Song would definitely send more troops.

When the three families join forces, he wants to see how Su Shi can fight against them.In the past, he relied on Zhao and Song's troops to carry the three tribes. This time, can he rely on himself to carry the three tribes again?

Goryeo's territory was too small and it was very poor. The previous Liao Kingdom looked down upon them. Otherwise, they would have sent troops to conquer it long ago.

If such a small place falls into the hands of Su Shi, can it turn the world upside down in a short period of time? Can it be comparable to a big country?
