Chapter 578

"The news from our detailed work. The envoy sent by the Liao Kingdom has arrived in Xiazhou and expressed the attitude of Northern Liao, which is to support the current small king of Western Xia, Li Ganshun, in charge of the ruler." After Lord Zhang sat in front of the stove, rubbed his hands that were a little red from cold, and said an unexpected news.

"Just that young, Li Ganshun, a young young man who was only sixteen years old, took power? Can the noble ministers of Xixia agree?" Su Dongpo couldn't help but frowned.

Zhong Shidao's expression seemed very serious. "Because the envoy of the Northern Liao Dynasty passed the will of the Northern Liao Emperor, now that Xixia is in a great defeat, it is time for Bei Liao to lend a helping hand, so naturally he dare not violate the will of the Northern Liao Emperor."

"The first decree issued by this small Xixia king on the first day of his administration was to order the general Wei Ming Awu to put all the Liang clan members in Xingqing Prefecture under house arrest."

"In addition, he sent an envoy to Liang Yibu, who was stationed in Hongzhou, south of the Jianing Army, and asked him to return to Xingqing Prefecture immediately. However, because Liang Yibu, on the grounds that our Song Dynasty was likely to attack Xixia, which had lost its troops, refused to return to Xingqing Prefecture, so the small king did not attack the Liang clan."

"I didn't expect that the small Xixia king was young, and this method was very despicable. But then again, Xiao Liang and Liang Yibu's army invaded our Song Dynasty, but ended up being a great defeat. Even Xiao Liang himself became the prisoner under the Song Dynasty. Liang's family could no longer be the help of the small country king."

"What's more, the queen of Xiao Liang, who has always been arrogant and domineering with the power of the Liang clan, has been defeated, which has caused great damage to the power of Xixia, and countless noble generals in the country have suffered casualties. Li Ganshun did this to give an explanation to the Western Xia tribes and also calmed the dissatisfaction of the Western Xia tribes with the royal family."

Wang Yang touched his chin and couldn't help but stutter. "It seems that although this kid is young, his methods are very skillful and decisive."

Zhang Yue, the senior official who had been stationed in the border area for a long time, couldn't help but sank, and said with a sigh. "But in this case, if such a person takes power, it will definitely be a big threat to my Song Dynasty."

"It's okay. It's impossible for Li Ganshun to truly become the ruler of Xixia in less than two or three years. Therefore, Xixia will definitely continue to ask for peace from me, the Song Dynasty." Su Dongpo couldn't help but smile after thinking about it.

"Sir, the lower official thinks whether Xixia or not is against the border is afraid that Li Ganshun has the final say, but Bei Liao has the final say." Zhang Shi shook his head slowly and said.

"Now Chaotingting rejected the request of Xixia to release his prisoners of war in the Song Dynasty and release him to the Queen Mother Liang. Fei Tingsidi and Wei Mingdang and other important figures, and issued a clear order to cancel the annual gifts that had been implemented for Xixia for nearly 60 years."

"This has a great possibility that it will touch Northern Liao. Northern Liao will worry that one day, our Song Dynasty will also cancel the annual tribute to Northern Liao."

Su Dongpo patted his forehead and said with some annoyance. "It seems that I am too arrogant. Thank you for your reminder. From this point of view, it is really difficult to be quiet on this Shaanxi Road."

"No matter what, the soldiers come to block the generals and the water comes to cover the soil. Our Song Dynasty border army is currently in full swing and has obtained a lot of excellent equipment. If Xixia dares to attack again, they will definitely not be able to make good use of it." Zhong Shidaoze said with confidence.

"Does the Xixia people have a precedent for winter invasion?" Su Dongpo's brows gathered together.

"Yes, sometimes some Western Xia tribes suffered disasters in winter and offended the Song Dynasty, and wanted to plunder the materials from my Song Dynasty to spend the winter."

"Of course, sometimes Xixia wants to attack our fortress unexpectedly. In late winter last year, the people of Xixia took advantage of the snow to attack our Dingbian Army fortress every night. If the defenders had not discovered it in time, maybe..."

"We may be able to use attack instead of defense. Taking advantage of the opportunity of Xixia's loss of troops and generals and morale being greatly reduced, we will try to push forward and build a fortress... forcing the Xixia people to only turn their attention to what we want them to pay attention to..." Zhang Feng is worthy of being an old driver. At least this method will make no problem for everyone present.

Several big guys were discussing the situation in full swing, but Wang Yang was a little cute guy, squatting aside, as if thinking about an extremely profound and difficult-to-explain issue.

It soon attracted the attention of the veteran general Zhe Kexing. "Mr. Xiao Wang, what are you thinking? Could it be that Mr. Xiao Wang has some refreshing ideas? If there is, you must say it out and let everyone learn about it in detail."

Zhe Kexing's words made everyone's attention fall on Wang Yang. When Wang Yang saw that everyone's eyes were on him, he had to say. "Wang has an immature idea. Perhaps, if you don't need to use the army, you can make Xixia suffer a big loss."

"Don't use the army?" Su Dongpo and others couldn't help but look at each other. They really couldn't figure out where the basis for this guy's words came from.

"I'm talking about nephew, if you have any ideas, please tell me quickly so that everyone can't guess." Su Dongpo was the first to be unable to bear it. In other words, Su Dongpo knew better than the other people present, Wang Yang's thinking patterns and brain circuits were definitely different from ordinary people.

I really want to know what this guy can come up with beyond everyone's expectations.

"Actually, I think that although the king of Xixia is quite capable, he seems a little too impulsive in his work. This may be an opportunity that I can take advantage of."

"...It was the first imperial edict he issued after he took power, and there were big problems."

None of the big guys present was so old that they quickly came back to their senses. "What do you mean is that Liang Yi, who is now stationed outside, is afraid he will not stop, right?"

"Sir, what kind of personality do you think Liang Yi is?" Wang Yang asked Zhang Yue, who was present, and the three veteran drivers who had been in the border area for a long time.

"This person is very utilitarian and has ambitions. Even when Xiao Liang soldier was in power behind the curtain, he was also cultivating his own power..."

"Is he loyal?" Wang Yang touched his chin and narrowed his eyes. His appearance looked very cunning no matter how he looked.

"Loyalty?" Mr. Zhang looked at Wang Yang in a daze. "Are you kidding me? How could that guy Liang Yibi be loyal? If he was really loyal to Xixia, he should have helped Li Qianshun take power long ago."

"Since he is not loyal and ambitious, he is still cultivating his own power in Xixia Country, then Wang feels that the chance of this plan is really great."

“What plan?”
