Liu Baoxun was anxious and said, "Duke Song, you have great political achievements and the emperor personally led the army to fight. You must stay in the capital."

Bashu was destroyed, Southern Tang was destroyed, Southern Han was destroyed, Jinghu was captured, Wu Yue and Min surrendered, only Jin Yan was born, and everyone had no idea about the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun. The only contribution was the Northern Han Dynasty, and the imperial commander in person. This is a great opportunity to make meritorious contributions. How can Liu Baoxun not be anxious?

Moreover, Song Jiu has made enough contributions, so this matter has nothing to do with you, so why bother to join in the fun?

Song Jiu said: "Dr. Liu, Your Majesty personally fought for tens of thousands of troops and countless civilians. Logistics are particularly important. If there is a mistake, the consequences will be unimaginable. The reason why I ask for it is not to seek credit."

Liu Baoxun was speechless.

Song Jiu was not as great as the people thought, but in everyone's eyes, he was also omnipotent in civil and military affairs. Not only did he serve as a transfer officer when Zhao Kuangyin personally fought against Taiyuan, but he also won a great victory with He Jiyun. Although He Jiyun was the leader in that battle, Song Jiu offered useful strategies, let alone Guangnan and Jiaozhi.

You need experience and experience, to have military achievements and to have status and status. What is Liu Baoxun’s fight for?

Moreover, Song Jiu admired Liu Baoxun very much and said that he was a purely good official. It was probably Song Jiu who mentioned that the emperor asked him to serve as the Transportation Commissioner.

He thought for a while and said to Zhao Kuangyi: "Your Majesty personally conquered Taiyuan, but the capital is the fundamental place, and it is inseparable from Duke Song."

"Your Majesty, there is Duke Xue in the capital and Duke Shen is here, so there is no need to worry. Since Emperor Shizong and the late emperor repeatedly conquered Taiyuan, they cannot be unsuccessful in this trip. I am asking for an order to follow him."

In fact, Song Jiu really doesn't want to fight for this credit.

Now Zhao Kuangyi must have no idea of ​​regaining Youzhou.

Xue Juzheng opposed it. It was not that he was conservative or had the same idea as Zhao Pu. Even if he had the same idea as Zhao Pu, he would have to go south and then north. Now that the south has solved it, isn’t it north? The main reason is that once he is ineffective, more than 100,000 troops will be accompanied and spent several months. Even if he is undefeated, he will use a lot of money.

However, Zhao Kuangyi would not think so. He is weak and I am strong, so I can use troops. Moreover, Zhao Kuangyi is very eager to prove himself.

Chai Rong did not take Taiyuan, and Zhao Kuangyin did not take Taiyuan, but he took Taiyuan in Zhao Kuangyi's hands. Does it mean that Zhao Kuangyi is better than his elder brother?

But if Zhao Kuangyi takes over Taiyuan, will Zhao Kuangyi have other ideas? Chai Rong and his elder brother only seize three passes and some parts of the southeast of Yizhou, and if he takes over Youzhou again, will he surpass his elder brother in all respects? If so, no matter how the elder brother dies, the subjects across the country will be convinced.

So once Taiyuan is taken down, Zhao Kuangyi will definitely conquer Youzhou in person.

However, the Song army would be defeated.

Now Song Jiu said nothing is useful, and it is hard to say. Could it be that he would tell Zhao Kuangyi that your martial arts skills are not good? Even if he can persuade him in a tactful manner, he must let Zhao Kuangyi suffer before he can persuade him.

Song Jiu wanted to ask for it because he wanted to see if there was a way to reduce the failure loss. At the same time, he tried to learn some experience and figure out a way to reverse it.

Now Song Jiu has the power to do a lot of things, but it must be practical and has many ideas. It is best to destroy Japan, but is it possible? It is best to take back the Uighurs, Liaodong, and even Tubo and Outer Mongolia together to achieve real unification in advance, but is it possible?

First of all, the management inconvenience caused by backward traffic makes this idea unrealistic. If the science of matter has developed to the point where the backward traffic situation is improved, then, let alone Outer Mongolia, you can extend the troops to the west of the Palacioles, reach the river again, and control the river!

So Song Jiu's first thought was that the battle between Song and Liao, and the Song Dynasty gradually gained the upper hand. He forced Xiao Yanyan to release Yuping back.

The second idea is to take down the Sixteen State of Youyun.

As long as it is taken down, there will be no crisis in the Northern Song Dynasty. Hundreds of years later, who would have thought that hundreds of years later?

But the first idea cannot be realized for the time being, but if you want to realize it, you must think carefully and observe carefully.

Therefore, Song Jiu must go there personally.

Zhao Kuangyi could not think of Song Jiu’s inner thoughts, and finally smiled and said, “Liu Qing, don’t fight, just do this, use Song Jiu as the commander of fortune, and you and Gao Qing are both deputy commanders.”

That's OK, Liu Baoxun said: "I obey the order."

Another edict was issued to order Prime Minister Chen Lun to be the one who stayed in Tokyo and sentenced to Kaifeng Prefecture, and Wang Renshan, the envoy of Xuanhui North Court, to be the one who was appointed as the Grand Inner Capital, and the Privy Council, was appointed as the deputy director of Chen Congxin.

This edict is quite interesting. It is not Xue Juzheng who stays behind, but Chen Yilun. In fact, the reason is very simple. Xue Juzheng and Zhao Pu have a friendly relationship. In addition to Zhao Kuangyi, there are Zhao Dezhao and Zhao Tingmei. God knows what kind of demon moth will Zhao Pu who stays in the capital make.

Therefore, Zhao Kuangyi was more at ease with Chen Yilun who had been framed by Zhao Pu.

As for Wang Ren and Chen Congxin, there is no need to say anything.

Originally, Zhao Guangyi wanted to use Zhao Tingmei as the one who stayed in Tokyo because he wanted to do so. Zhao Tingmei believed it to be true, but Lu Duan, the judge of Kaifeng Prefecture who was kind to him, made suggestions. The emperor was in charge of the wise and was punished by the emperor. The king was in charge of the virtuous and was a model to follow the entourage. If he was in charge of the matter, it was not appropriate.

If Zhao Kuangyi really wanted to use Zhao Tingmei as the one who stayed in Tokyo, the edict would have been issued long ago. This is false benevolence and righteousness, and it is for others to see. You can't take it seriously. Zhao Tingmei wakes up and asks you to do it. As expected, Zhao Kuangyi immediately agreed to him.

However, Zhao Kuangyi was still worried about the capital, so he signed the affairs of the Privy Council with his confidant Shi Xizai, and then issued an edict to the Hebei Transportation Commissioner Hou Zhi and Shaanxi North Road Transportation Commissioner Lei Dexiang to the east and west road transportation commissioner Taiyuan.

The army rumbled.

Before Zhao Kuangyi set out, he summoned the generals of Pan Mei and his ministers to the Changchun Palace for a banquet. Liu Yu, King Chu of Huaihai, and Chen Hongjin, the governor of Wuning, all of them.

Liu Yu stepped forward and said, "The court's power is so powerful that it is far away. All the lords who are usurped from all directions are here today. Today, they will be in the middle of the seat. After pacifying Taiyuan every night, Liu Jiyuan will come again. I will take the lead in the court and hope to be the king of the country to surrender."

Zhao Kuangyi laughed.

Lu Duosun shook his head: "The second Anle Gong is also."

"Mr. Anle is very smart." Song Jiu whispered.

Liu Yu is as shameless as Liu Chan, but this is a wise move. Li Yu is smart, but where is he now?

The car starts.

When the Khitan heard the news, he was shocked and quickly sent Yelu to the Song Dynasty as an envoy, and bumped into Zhao Kuangyi in Lincheng County and asked Zhao Kuangyi: "What's the name to attack the Han Dynasty?"

They made Chai Rong and Zhao Kuangyin cover their heads, but they had not found confidence at this time, so although they were dissatisfied, they just asked.

Zhao Kuangyi replied: "Hedong is against his fate, so he should be punished. If the Northern Dynasties do not support him and the peace agreement will be the same, otherwise, there will be only war!"

Zhao Er was so murderous that he scared Yelu torture Meili and fled back to the Khitan.

Song Jiu happened to sit down at the bottom and saw Zhao Kuangyi full of confidence. He looked strange.

Zhao Kuangyi asked, "Song Qing, what do you want to say?"

"Your Majesty, I think you can despise the enemy strategically, but you must pay attention to the enemy tactically."

Song Jiu thought about it for a long time, but couldn't figure out how to save it, and he was very scared of Yelu Xiu Ge. After thinking about it, there was only one way. After taking over Taiyuan, he learned about Zhao Kuangyi's next military plan and then discussed it with Pan Mei.

When the army crossed the river, an official called out to the side and said that he would offer a seal. Zhao Kuangyi ordered the Huangmen to take it over and see it. The river lord Po Song Jie was the master of Linhe. He thought he wanted to learn from Zhang Qixian, so he recommended himself and promoted himself. The seal was a mess, but Zhao Kuangyi was very happy to see his name. It was a good omen.

This is just like Zhao Kuangyin saw the name of Song Jiu, Song Jiu, Song Jiu, Song Jie, wasn’t it a great victory for the Song army? He immediately granted the position of Taipu Temple Chief. This was a funny scene halfway, but Zhao Kuangyi continued to dispatch troops and generals, using Liu Baoxun as the northern transit commander, Jie Hui and Zhe Yanyun attacked Longzhou. He also heard that the Northern Han built a city under the danger. He ordered Yin Xun to attack Longzhou and surrounded the enemy on three sides. He then transferred Qi Yanchen and Hou Mei to attack Meng County.

Drive along the way, constantly increasing troops.

Another battle has begun.

Before the army was launched, Zhao Kuangyi ordered Guo Jin and Tian Qinzuo to lead the army to Shiling Pass first.

From this point of view, Zhao Kuangyi is not as good as Zhao Kuangyin.

When the Song Dynasty wanted to attack Taiyuan, the Khitan would inevitably send troops to aid. Zhao Kuangyin waited until the Khitan army arrived before sending He Jijun to counterattack. But before the army was launched, Zhao Kuangyi sent his own army to Shiling Pass first.

The difference between this is like whether Brazil will send people to watch the video, boxing and kicking, but the national football team must watch the video first and send troops to set up the formation. It is precisely because of the lack of certainty that Zhao Kuangyi first dispatched troops to Shiling Pass.

It was not just a plan and a decisive victory thousands of miles away. Zhao Kuangyin had done it. Zhao Kuangyi wanted to learn it, but he certainly couldn't learn it well. But even Zhao Kuangyin's planning of the road was also a deal with the southern Han Dynasty of Bashu and did not dare to use it on the Khitans.

The military strategy says that water has no constant shape, and the military has no constant force. The same moon formation has only been used once in history. In the same battle against the water, Han Xinyong will win a great victory. If Zhao Kuangyi was going to do it, it would be that all three armies would be lost.

This early transfer will soon cause Zhao Kuangyi and Song Zhenzong to suffer a great loss.

However, this time Zhao Kuangyi made a mistake and made the right adjustment.

It happened that the Northern Han compressed his troops to several critical places. Guo Jin came to Shiling Pass almost unimpededly, and Bei Han set up a large camp here. After Guo Jin arrived, he immediately ordered an attack, killing countless enemies, and more than a thousand prisoners of war were captured.

But it cannot be called a great war. As soon as the Northern Han soldiers left Taiyuan, they were nothing.

However, Guo Jin did not expect that the Khitan sent troops so quickly this time. He got Shiling Pass in front, and later he heard that the Khitan sent the Prime Minister of the Southern Court Yelu Sha as the commander, King Ji Yelu Dilie as the military supervisor, and King Nan Yuan Yelu Xizhen as the side responding, General Qianniu Han Tuo, and governor of Datong Yelu Shanfu to support the army in the south. The huge troops of the three routes were all better than the number of troops rescued by the Khitan when Zhao Kuangyin came to attack Taiyuan. He helped each other and advanced layer by layer to Taiyuan.

Guo Jin thought about it and asked Tian Qinzuo to stay at Shiling Pass. He took the initiative to lead his army out of Shiling Pass and seize the northeast. He came to the foot of Bailong Mountain more than 100 miles northeast of Shiling Pass. It was the junction of Hu and Han, and collided with the Khitan army.

The two armies looked at each other across a large stream. Yelu Sha observed that the Song army was neatly formed and murderous intent, and vaguely felt that it was difficult to deal with. So hesitated. This was a clear approach. Wait a little longer. Another cunning general Yelu Xizhen came, and the war might be another trend. However, the supervisor Yelu Dilie was extremely arrogant and strongly asked Yelu Sha to attack and take the lead in rushing towards the big stream.

That's a fight.

This is the moment I waited for.

Guo Jin waited until the Khitans were halfway through and launched an attack. In just a moment, the Khitan army collapsed.

Tens of thousands of deserters were scattered all over the mountains and fields, and Guo Jin was chasing him hard. Fortunately, Yelu Xizhen caught up and let the army open a few gaps, allowing the defeated army to retreat to the rear, and organized soldiers to shoot arrows on the front line to prevent the Song army from coming in with the momentum of victory.

Guo Jin hesitated for a moment before ordering the withdrawal of troops.

Once the three armies collapse, the miserable situation is unimaginable. If it were others who had already let the deserter generals disperse the formation, the consequences might have allowed Guo Jin to eat up all tens of thousands of Khitan soldiers. But the general in front of him not only did not let the defeated generals disperse the formation, but also organized defense in time, which was not simple.

Yelu Xizhen... Guo Jin remembered it, but he did not bring the news back in the end... and then a tragedy happened.

In this battle, the Song army killed more than 10,000 real Khitan soldiers, including Yelu Dilie, Yelu Sha's son, and several generals.

Guo Jin retreated slowly, but as soon as he returned to Shiling Pass, he heard some bad news. Guo Jin attacked, and the Northern Han also came to counterattack Shiling Pass. Tian Qinzuo closed his village and defended himself and did not dare to fight. Then the Khitan was defeated, and the Northern Han soldiers retreated in a hurry, but Tian Qinzuo still did not dare to pursue him. This could also use the few troops in Tian Qinzuo's hands as an excuse. However, Tian Qinzuo did not have the heart to fight, but instead used the soldiers' salaries and military rations to make profits.

The great victory was reported to Zhao Kuangyi, and Zhao Kuangyi was overjoyed. At the same time, Tian Qinzuo's approach was reported to Zhao Kuangyi. Zhao Kuangyi demoted Tian Qinzuo to Muzhou Tuanzheng, but continued to let him serve as a guardian.

Song Jiu felt that this punishment was a bit inappropriate, but he didn't care too much.
Chapter completed!
