Time passed slowly, and Zheng Zhi was also very busy.

Now that recruiting soldiers in Cangzhou is gradually becoming easier, as long as the Jingliufu fulfills the promise of recruiting soldiers, there are naturally many people who are willing to join the army.

If a soldier can support a family of young people, it will be a good place for the people at the bottom. There is also a very attractive condition, that is, the Cangzhou soldiers will no longer be tattooed.

It seems that the change in this matter is as attractive as the generous salary. Those who serve in the army no longer need to put big words on their faces.

This change is naturally very contrary to the court's policies. Zheng Zhi thought for a long time before making this decision. It was really a great insult to tattoo the soldiers on their faces. Zheng Zhi didn't know how the ancestors of the Song Dynasty decided such a thing with a slap in the butt.

The first person who jumped out to oppose was Pei Xuan. As for the other opponents, there were countless people. Although everyone opposed it, they were also for the sake of Zheng Zhi's goodness. He did not expect Zheng Zhi to be punished by the court for such a thing.

Zheng Zhi no longer has to deal with so many things. The war is imminent. If you want people to use their lives, you naturally have to ensure the basic dignity of these people. At this time, Zheng Zhi was already a little helpless.

Things like weapons were naturally built in full swing outside Qingchi City. Tong Guan also provided some support in Tokyo. Although there was not much money or food, the craftsman from Tokyo was already on the way.

Tong Guan had already made up his mind to attack Liao and contact all those inside and outside the court who could contact him. After Zhong Shidao returned to Beijing to report to Heshuo, Tong Guan was unwavering.

Tong Guan was also thinking a lot in his heart, and he also had a thorough understanding of the Song Dynasty. Now this country is still rich. Tong Guan also has his own views on soldiers and generals. These views mainly come from his impression of the Western Army. The troops in Heshuo are not available, and Tong Guan also wants to attack Liao, not to mention Heshuo and Zheng Zhi, and Zhong Shidao who will be transferred here soon.

Tong Guan also slowly completed the layout of Tokyo with the help of the power of the imperial court, and promoted a general like Yang Keshi.

Tong Guan is in charge of all this, and perhaps there is an important reason!

Song Shenzong's will: Those who take over the sixteen states of Yanyun can be granted the title of king!

The fact that the king was enthroned seemed particularly attractive to a eunuch who had become powerful.

Tong Guantian got up before dawn today, his face was full of fatigue. He had a private meeting with Cai Jing until midnight last night, and he left before dawn today.

Tong Guan, who was exhausted, had higher energy and spirit than before. Just because today I have to discuss the court, what I discussed was the joint Jin attack on Liao.

Tong Guan came outside the palace gate early, staring at the tablets in his hand. The jade tablets were filled with dense small characters, which were all about what the court had to say today, which shows how meticulous Tong Guan was preparing.

The minister's tablet is a function of this, which is to facilitate ministers to record the contents to be reported. Tong Guan slowly reviewed the contents on the tablets over and over again, and recited silently in his mouth and ink in his heart. He just wanted to be organized when speaking in the court.

Cai Jing then went outside the palace gate and looked at Tong Guan at once, then closed his eyes and stopped talking.

The sun slowly rose, and dozens of people slowly gathered outside the palace gate, and these dozens of people determined everything in this country.

Zhang Shuye, Zhang Kegong, Zheng Juzhong, Wang Fu, Deng Xunwu, Yang Keshi, An Yaochen, Zhong Shidao...

There is another person who has to say that it is Zhao Liangsi who was standing beside Tong Guan at this time. This person is Ma Zhi, the Han people from the Liao Kingdom. He came to Bianliang with Tong Guan. At this time, he was named Secretary Secretary by Zhao Ji. Although he was not a high-ranking official, he could also participate in the discussion.

Huizong Zhao Ji was already moved by the attack on Liao. Although many things had not yet reached the stage, the secret work had already begun.

The palace gate was small, and civil and military personnel entered left and right. Zhao Ji sat upright on the dragon throne, still wearing a light blue Taoist robe. He had an extraordinary temperament and did not show much emperor majesty, but he was extremely graceful and gentle.

Long live the left and right and shout three times.

The old eunuch beside Zhao Ji spoke in a sharp voice and presided over: "If you have something to say, you will leave the court without anything to do."

The old eunuch who spoke should not be underestimated. It was Yang Jian, the chief supervisor of the Inner Palace, who was appointed as the chief tutor of the prosecutor. He was already the most powerful person in the inner court. Everyone at that time became the Grand Tutor of Yang. Even Cai Jing wanted to win more.

Tong Guan looked up at Zhao Ji on his head, then looked left at Cai Jing, inspected the crowd, stepped out of the scepter, picked up the tablet and said, "I will report to you, Your Majesty, I will report!"

Zhao Ji looked at Tong Guan below and raised his hand to signal Tong Guan to speak. I think he knew roughly what Tong Guan was going to say.

"I heard from Your Majesty that in the extreme north of the Liao Kingdom, there were barbarians living in the Liaodong. One of the people called Wanyan Aguda, unified the Nvzhi tribe and Liao's enemies. After several wars, the Liao people were defeated. Now the Nvzhi is in power. The Liao people are unable to destroy it. At this time, it is the time when the Liao people are besieged. In the Liao Dynasty, bureaucratic corruption was rampant and the public resentment was everywhere. Liao occupied Yanyun for more than a hundred years, and the Yanyun land was all my Han people, and they were even more in dire straits and people were living in poverty. I would like to ask Your Majesty to think about the suffering of the people of my hometown, and come up with a benevolent and righteous army to save all the people from water and fire." Tong Guan's words were prepared for a long time, and he said it ups and downs, which was a matter of righteousness for the country, the people.

Zhao Ji was not surprised when he heard the words, so he said, "When the late emperor was alive, he always thought of Youyun, and he was heartbroken. There was also a decree saying: Those who collect Youyun can be named kings. Youyun is also my long-cherished wish for the Song Dynasty. Now that Youyun is in dire straits, the people of Youyun are in a state of great trouble, Tong Qing requests to send troops, can all the officials have any countermeasures?"

The civil and military officials in the court were stunned and did not understand what was going on. Why did they suddenly use troops to the Liao Kingdom?

Over the past century, the Song Dynasty became increasingly prosperous, and the people lived and worked in peace. When the Shenzong was granted the state treasury was very rich, so Zhao Ji had the capital to squander so much. Why was the Song Dynasty so rich? Peace and no war obviously played the greatest role.

The Dazai Zheng Juzhong returned to his mind, looked around, and looked at Tong Guan and Cai Jing. He didn't know the tricks here. He took a few steps and said: "Report to Your Majesty! The alliance of Chanyuan has been around for more than a hundred years. The soldiers are not aware of swords and farmers do not have additional military service. Although the marriage plan for the Han and Tang dynasties is not as good as the border plan for our dynasty. Now there is no worry in all directions, but he will rashly break the contract, which may lead to resentment from heaven and man. Moreover, the way of using troops is unpredictable. If you win, the national treasury will be short and the people will be trapped; if you lose, there will be no harm. With Taizong's bravery, he will recover Yan Yun and lose both battles. How can you start the war lightly today!"

When Zhao Ji heard Zheng Juzhong's words, he frowned and did not answer, but only went to see Tong Guan.

Tong Guan had already responded, looked at the tablet in his hand, and said, "The words of Zheng Taizai's words are wrong. How can the Liao in Tanyuan be the same as those of today's Liao? Today's Liao, with internal affairs and external enemies, is the time when internal and external troubles are in trouble. The old emperor's long-cherished wish is to recover Yanyun. How can we not obey it? Now is the opportunity to collect the sixteen states of Yanyun and return to the mighty style of the Han and Tang dynasties.

Your Majesty is a wise ruler, with great talent and strategy, and it is the time to make achievements. From ancient times to the present, those who do not think of danger in times of peace will have a miserable ending. Now that I can have a wise ruler in my Song Dynasty, how can I not expand my territory and lay the foundation forever?

What's more, Yan Yun is the homeland of the Han people and has been trapped in barbarians for many years. If we do not want to make progress and allow the Chinese people to be in trouble, how can we face our ancestors and ancestors?"

"Taiwei Tong, Tong Shumi, you are so clever, but I don't know that since ancient times, all sages have been based on faith and righteousness. Tan Yuan's alliance is ahead. If you betray your faith and righteousness today, how can you face the morality of the world? If you start a war again, how can you face the ancestors of the Song Dynasty's ancestors of the Song Dynasty?" Zheng Juzhong was already a little excited, and in his heart, it was against morality and dragged the country into the fire of water and fire.

Tong Guan listened to the words, smiled slightly, looked at the tablet, raised his head and looked around and said, "Those who betrayed the faith are not my Song Dynasty, but actually Northern Liao. My Song Dynasty fought with Western Xia. For nearly a hundred years, the Liao people secretly helped Western Xia. How could they remember the incident of Tan Yuan? This time, my Song Dynasty had just defeated Western Xia, and the military peak was in full swing. They raised an army of Yanyun. The old people in Yanyun must have eaten a pot of slurry to welcome the king's army, and the horses must be successful. How could the people Zheng Taizai said were in the war."

Zheng Juzhong faced it temporarily, and there was no way Tong Guan had to prepare for a long time, so he had to look around and signal others to say something with his eyes.

Seeing this, Cai Jing stepped forward and spoke, "The words of Zheng Taizai are also reasonable. Every sentence is sincere. Tong Taiwei's words are extremely insightful, for the country and the people, and for the sake of the future, for the unification of China, for the descendants of the descendants of the descendants of the descendants of the future. According to my opinion, even if the war starts, it is necessary to join the alliance with Nuzhi and jointly attack the Liao people. This is the perfect strategy. Today, the court will discuss whether to attack Liao and wait for the future. If it is for Nuzhi's affairs, you can send envoys to discuss it first before you can decide the battle with Liao. What do you think?"

There were many people in the hall opposing the war, and there were more people who were swaying. However, Cai Jing said something and dragged this matter down and discussed it later. Everyone thought that Tong Guan’s words must have been prepared for a long time and came to talk in a hurry, but there was no word to fight back. Cai Jing spoke up and it was the time, and they all nodded and said yes.

Cai Jing's words seemed extremely reasonable, but they had already taken the attack on Liao one step forward. Obviously, Cai Jing and Tong Guan had already discussed it very thoroughly. They started with the start of the war and finally ended with the alliance with the Jin people.

It seems that the war has not started yet, but whether the war is started is determined by whether the alliance can be completed, and a strategic victory has been achieved.

Zhao Ji nodded even more and said, "Cai Qing is right. Military affairs are dangerous and cannot be easily raised. Let's see what the girl is doing. Let's discuss it later."

Even on this day, the court discussion continued, but the matter of the Great Song Dynasty's joint Jin was decided. The envoy to Liaodong's joint Jin was the original Liao Guanglu Qing Ma Zhi, who was Zhao Liangsi.
