Come to Song Dynasty with the system

Out of this idea, Bao Zheng's questions followed one after another. He just wanted to tell everyone that there is no benefit in sending troops.

Facing Bao Zheng's aggressive questions, Wen Yanbo really wanted to throw up his sleeves and leave, but he knew that this was above the court and he couldn't do this.Everyone, including the officials, are still waiting for his answer.

"Ms. Bao, the Liao Kingdom promised to return the six states of Yanyun first. As for the rest, we can talk about it." He answered in a not loud voice. From this point of view, Wen Yanbo already felt guilty to a certain extent. .

"What? There are only six states? What about the other ten states?" Bao Zheng looked surprised.

This is not pretending, it is really surprising.

I originally thought that if the Liao Kingdom needed both food and reinforcements, it would have to pay a lot.But now it seems that this is not the case at all. They just took out the land of the six states and wanted Da Song to follow them and fight Su Shi?

This, this is simply whimsical.

When they heard Liuzhou's words, the expressions of the other ministers also changed suddenly. No one had expected such a result before.

Fortunately, they were still thinking of sharing the credit, but now it seems that this is simply a trap, and whoever jumps in will be stigmatized.

Once the matter is completed, all the benefits will be taken away by Wen Yanbo alone, and the remaining mess will be left to other ministers to clean up. If one thing is not done well, it will be an uncontrollable situation.

At this moment, many people looked at Wen Yanbo with anger in their eyes.

Seeing everyone's somewhat unkind looks, Wen Yanbo was a little flustered and quickly said: "Your Majesty, and colleagues, there are some matters

We can have a good relationship with the Liao people.If six states don't work, we will have ten states. If not, we will have to return the entire sixteen states. Now that the Liao Kingdom needs our assistance, we may not be able to negotiate. "

"okay."

This time, before Wen Yanbo finished speaking, Bao Zheng said: "Facts have proved that the Liao Kingdom has no sincerity at all. Even if it is like this, there is nothing left to talk about."

After saying this, Bao Zheng clasped his fists and said to Zhao Zhen at the Jinluan Palace: "Your Majesty, I think that the Liao Kingdom clearly wants to take advantage of our Song Dynasty. Even so, we don't need to pay attention to them at all. Why don't we let them and Su If the stone is struck down, we can reap the benefits. If the Liao Kingdom is severely damaged due to this, then we can take the Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures by ourselves, which is the right way."

Is it another case of watching a tiger fight from a mountaintop?

Zhao Zhen, who was sitting on the dragon throne, obviously did not agree with this statement.Things happened, but he didn't do anything. He always felt that he was at a disadvantage.Faced with Bao Zheng's proposal, Zhao Zhen did not speak immediately.

Wang Deyong, who was standing below, seemed to see what Zhao Zhen was thinking. He suddenly had an idea and stood up and said: "Your Majesty, in my humble opinion, the Liao Kingdom is short of food. We can sell it to them at a high price." Sell ​​it to them. In this way, our Song Dynasty can earn more gold and silver."

"I agree with Wang Xianggong's words. If the Liao army has food, they will fight to the end with Su Shi. Only then will the benefits we gain be greater." Song Chu, the envoy of the Third Division, also quickly stood up.

The grain can be sold at high prices and the national treasury can be replenished. On this point, Song Itch absolutely supports it.Not to mention, if you do this, it’s okay

Making the battle between the Liao Army and the Dragon Army more exciting is a way to weaken the enemy, so why not do it.

"Huh? Yeah." Zhao Zhen didn't speak immediately, but he made two hums to show his attitude.

Through this Long-Liao war, although the Song Dynasty could not regain the lost territory immediately.But if they get angry, their strength will inevitably be weakened. At that time, they may not have the opportunity to use force to take over the lost territory.

Zhao Zhen seemed to have a choice. This scene made Wen Yanbo anxious.Seeing that his great achievements were about to be taken away from him, he was unwilling to give in. He immediately said: "Your Majesty, Su Shi's troubles are not less than those of the Liao Kingdom. This time the Liao Kingdom is in the lead. We, the Song Dynasty Just sending troops to assist can eliminate this disaster. In the long run, this will be beneficial to the Song Dynasty. On the other hand, if the Liao Kingdom is defeated by the Dragon Army, it will endanger the Song Dynasty sooner or later. Your Majesty, please think twice. ah."

No matter what kind of thoughts Wen Yanbo had when he said such words, let alone he was really right on the mark.

It's a pity that none of the high-ranking Song officials really took Su Shi seriously.

It was less than a year after the founding of the country, and it still occupied the remote place of Goryeo. If such a small country could threaten the security of the Song Dynasty, no one would believe it.

At this moment, Wen Yanbo said such words, which would only make everyone think that he was looking for a reason for the Song army to send troops to help the Liao Dynasty.And this reason is still so lame in everyone’s opinion.It just doesn’t hold up at all.

There were even some people who laughed out loud. Hearing all this made Wen Yanbo feel chilled. He knew that from these

Judging from his attitude, everyone will misunderstand him.

Wen Yanbo's face was ugly, and Bao Zheng's mood was not much better. He didn't want to be an enemy of Su Shi, and he didn't want Zhao Song to give any support to the Liao Kingdom. But before he could express his opinion, Wang Deyong made a request. Sell ​​high-priced grain to Liao.

In his opinion, the price of grain no longer mattered. As long as Zhao Song sold grain to the Liao State, it was tantamount to helping, and it was tantamount to turning against Su Shi.With the other party's mentality of seeking revenge, it may be difficult for Zhao Song and the Dragon Empire to live in peace in the future.

Wang Deyong made suggestions, Song Chu gave his support, and more importantly, he received Zhao Zhen's approval.

You can make a lot of money by launching wars with other countries. No emperor would refuse.In this way, the congratulations originally prepared by the ministers were not used. The final decision was based on what Wang Deyong said, and Zhao Zhen handed over the negotiation with the Liao envoy to Wang Deyong in front of the courtiers. In the hands of Song and Chu.

After arranging these things, Zhao Zhen felt a little tired. He did not take back the land of Yanyun, which made him not as excited as before.Seeing that the important matter was finished, he nodded lightly to Zhang Mao who was beside him, and slowly stood up and said, "I'm tired. If you have anything else, please discuss it with the Queen."

Zhao Zhen's health is better than before, but it is limited.There was no problem in working in a short period of time, but as time went by, it became a bit too much, so he left Chui Gong Hall in front of everyone.

Queen Cao stood up and sent Zhao Zhen away, then returned to the Golden Dragon Chair and sat down. When she looked at the courtiers below, she was quite high-spirited.

He looked like he was saying, "If you, my dear friends, have anything to do with you, please feel free to report it."

......

In the post house, Zhang Jian did not wait for the good news. What he waited for was the arrival of Wang Deyong and Song Chu.

This made Zhang Jian very disappointed. If it were normal times, he would have got angry. This move was absolutely detrimental to Zhao Song.Often as long as they do this, Zhao Song will be afraid and reconsider their suggestions.

But now the Liao Kingdom wants to fight Su Shi, and it can't even care about it. Where can it find the strength to challenge Zhao Song's army?

The situation has changed. Zhang Jian really couldn't be strong. When facing Wang Deyong and Wang Deyong, his attitude became much more humble. In the following discussion, he also restrained his temper and accepted Zhao Song's betrayal. The fact that food is given to them at high prices.

But at the same time, Zhang Jian also proposed that Zhao and Song Dynasty could make a profit on the food price issue without sending troops, but Song soldiers must not take advantage of the opportunity and send troops to the north. Otherwise, the Liao Kingdom would bow its head and fight with Su Shi. If he talks and makes concessions, he will go back and deal with Zhao Song first.

To this point, Wang Deyong and the two of them agreed immediately.

What a joke, they had no intention of taking the opportunity to send troops.Wouldn’t it be nice to watch the Liao Kingdom and the Dragon Empire fight to the death?

send troops?That would cost money and food, and it would also kill people.

Over the years, they have always lost more and won less, which made the generals of Zhao and Song lose their confidence.How could they take the initiative to start a war?

Seeing that the two agreed, Zhang Jian breathed a sigh of relief.What he was worried about was that Zhao Song would take advantage of the situation. With the current situation in Liao, if

If the two fronts start a war, the pressure will be too much.

Fortunately, these people in the Song Dynasty were accustomed to enjoying ease and comfort, and were not actively warlike. Even so, the southern border of the Liao Kingdom was not in danger, and they could mobilize more troops to go to the northern border to fight Su Shi to the death.

Zhang Jian was still thinking about how to destroy Su Shi, or even inflict heavy damage on the other side, but he had no idea that just yesterday, on the 20th day of the ceasefire negotiations between Liao and the Dragon Empire, the Dragon Army launched an all-out attack in advance. .

[-]. The Three Dragon Cavalry Brigade attacked Shanhe City in Suizhou.

The First Division of the People's Army attacks Liaozhou.

The Second Division of the People's Army attacked Yinzhou.

The Third Division of the People's Army attacked the Huiba tribe in the northeast.

With the cooperation of 10,000+ auxiliary soldiers, peasant soldiers and auxiliary peasant soldiers, the Dragon Army took the initiative as soon as the war began. In addition to putting great pressure on the cities of the Liao Kingdom, each city was also in danger, and carrier pigeons asking for help were flying all over the sky. .

In Liaoyang Prefecture, Tokyo, after learning that the Dragon Army had launched an operation ten days in advance, Wen Xing, the envoy of the Liao Kingdom stationed in the city and the Minister of Honglu Temple of the Liao Kingdom, asked Su Shi for an explanation.

The angry Wen Xing could not find Su Shi's shadow, but Zhang Xi took the initiative to show up and stopped in front of him.

"Master Zhang, didn't we agree that we would renegotiate the current situation thirty days from now, and the decision on whether to send troops or not should be made at that time? Why are you so unfaithful and proactively provoking a war?"

When they met, Wen Xing spoke in a reasonable manner.

But he forgot a very important sentence - a weak country has no diplomacy.

Only when the strength is inferior to others, the so-called envoys will reason.Really strong people don't follow any rules, because they are the ones who set the rules.

.

Facing Wen Xing with an angry look on his face, Zhang Hu laughed and said: "Oh, I'm really sorry. We have already investigated and it was the generals below who did not listen to orders and took the initiative to attack. For this reason Regarding this matter, our Majesty has personally gone to the front line to investigate the matter, and I believe there will be a result soon."
