"Instructor Zhang, why does the country have such ministers, but there are many disasters and difficulties, far less than the prosperous Tang Dynasty?" A young woman sat in the room and asked in a house in an official family in the capital.

"The Khitan is very powerful." Zhang Qi replied reluctantly.

"Tough to be invincible?"

"No, there will always be a winner in the end. Our dynasty is vast and wealthy, and the economy is prosperous. However, it is very difficult to defeat the Khitan and take back Yanyun." Zhang Qi's answer became more and more difficult.

"What if Yan Yun is not taken back?"

"No, my grandma, think about it. In this battle, Xiao Yanyan has not sent troops from the whole country, and it seems that the troops are less than 100,000. However, where has the vanguard attacked? If the whole country sends troops, will the 100,000 Liao troops come down easily tore open the last line of defense of Daming Mansion and fight to the capital? So this battle will continue."

"The people are too miserable."

"Who said no, Your Majesty has issued a self-criticism in person."

"But why can a civil servant fight a good war? Why do those generals keep them? I'm not talking about you."

That is to say, what can I do? But this question made Zhang Qi even more trouble. He thought for a long time before answering: "It's not that Mr. Song can fight, right? Every time he goes to the war, he asks the generals for their opinions. For example, Yang Ye, when he fights, he gives them to the generals for command, and does not interfere roughly."

"Then why can't these generals do it again if they leave Song Gong?"

"Duke Song is an old minister of two dynasties and is famous both at home and abroad. I heard that the Empress Dowager of Liao even offered a royal title to capture Duke Song. So he was there, and he could shock everyone."

"Then why can't the emperor be shocked?"

"Madam, don't talk nonsense. The emperor is in the capital. Duke Song is on the front line, and the emperor is far away. Duke Song is by their side."

Of course, the young woman would not be so stupid that she asked Zhao Kuangyi why she failed in Gaoliang River, which would be shocked. But Zhao Kuangyi made his own decisions again.

In fact, as Song Jiu came back, many people were also reflecting.

However, Song Jiu was eventually a civil servant, not a military general. Could it be that he would use it to death?

However, Zhao Kuangyi had an answer, that was to find a replacement candidate. Li Jilong, whether he could pass the qualifications, would be waiting for Song Jiu to come back to evaluate him.

The outside world doesn't know.

While discussing the brutality of the Liao Kingdom, the people admired Song Jiu very much.

As a small Hu bed slowly lifted towards the queen, many people stopped and stopped to watch.

"Song Qing... you look very bad."

"I have suffered some coldness, so it doesn't matter."

"Transfer to the Imperial Doctor!"

"Your Majesty, it's really okay. Your Majesty should not love me any more, otherwise I would have to sell my life in order to repay Your Majesty." Song Jiu joked. The reason for finding Li Jilong was even an observation and a tempering battle, just to retreat. A high achievement may not be a good thing.

"Song Qing," Zhao Kuangyi did not have the ability to see through Song Jiu's inner world, and held Song Jiu's hand with emotion.

"I have another matter to ask Your Majesty for forgiveness. Cao Bin retreated from Zhuozhou to Xiongzhou. His Majesty ordered him to go to Xincheng to meet with Mi Xin. One is to facilitate the harvest, and the other is to be able to threaten the Liao people in time. However, Cao Bin could not control the generals, so he finally went from Baigou Road to Qigou Pass and then to Zhuozhou. Therefore, I asked Your Majesty for that letter of edict. I did not want to use it in my heart, but although the three Liao troops who went south were scattered and were defeated by me and the soldiers, the main force of the enemy was still there, and even continued to escort a large amount of women, children and wealth to the Liao territory every day. I ordered the three armies to move together and force the Liao army to retreat early. However, I gave several orders, and Zhao Yanpu still found all kinds of reasons to shirk it. Therefore, I went to Yingzhou and killed Zhao Yanpu..."

"Kill it, kill it."

Zhao Kuangyi was angry. Of course, he killed him, but Song Jiu still had to explain, so he said: "In fact, seeing the tragic phenomenon in Hebei, I had the intention to kill Song Wei and Zhang Yongde at that time."

"Kill Song Wei..." Zhao Kuangyi laughed dryly.

This is not a good joke.

Song and Zhang are not Liu Tingrang, they are older, so I won’t say that. Moreover, they have a noble status. Not to mention the bloodline of several dynasties and royal families, Zhang Yongde is also Chai Rong’s brother-in-law. Even if Zhao Kuangyi had not been able to marry Fu family at the beginning, it would lead to a series of results. For example, if this inspection failed to happen, it might lead to Chai Rong’s suspicion, killing his elder brother before he met King Yama, or that the elder brother would be opposed by Fu Yanqing and other generals... One mistake was made and the whole link was wrong.

This is just like Zhao Pu wanted to kill Fu Yanqing back then, but what about the end?

Song Jiu said again: "This is my idea, but the minister from the Liao Kingdom heard from the scout that Empress Xiao was also furious and almost prepared to launch his army to invade the south again."

"This crazy woman, I, I!" Zhao Kuang was so angry that he could hardly speak.

Song Jiu knew Xiao Yanyan's strength, but after hearing the information from the scout candidates, he was also somewhat surprised. In fact, Xiao Yanyan thought more than the monarch and ministers. In history, the Liao Kingdom fought hard, and the Song Dynasty had more trouble. Li Jiqian in the northwest became more and more trouble, and the Bashu area was also causing trouble. Zhao Kuangyi wanted to discuss peace talks, "If you don't beat me, I won't beat you, as for Yanyun, we don't want it, but both peace talks were rejected by Xiao Yanyan. Then he arrived at Chan.

At the city of the state, the situation in the Liao Kingdom was actually very dangerous at that time. It was even possible that as Kou Zhun and Yang Yanzhao said, they could swallow Xiao Yanyan and his son and more than 100,000 Liao troops alive. But that's it. Xiao Yanyan even bit a lot of fat from Emperor Zhenzong of Song before leading the army to leave. Song Jiu didn't know much about these things. Anyway, this powerful Xiao Yanyan gave Song Jiu a headache, and even thought of one thing that he could not replace Yuping with the selection of a few nobles from prisoners of war.

Unless Xiao Yanyan is forced to the end of her journey.

This is not easy.

"Yes, Your Majesty, but did this empress dowager send troops in the end? No. Why can't the people bear it? Even if they send troops, she will slow down this year."

Zhao Kuangyi wanted to fight the north and even planned to take one of the eight Dings from the forty prefectures in Hedong and Henan, and to use Ding Zhuang as the rebel army, so the ministers persuaded him.

Li Weiqing, the JD Transport Author, was the first to be anxious and said, if this is the case, the world will not be cultivated.

Originally, due to the war, the people were burdened more heavily, and this draw would make the people even more miserable. Especially the states under his rule also wanted to draw.

After submitting memorials to argue for it three times, Zhao Kuangyi disagreed.

The slap in the face was fierce. Zhao Kuangyi was furious.

Li Fang thought that he could not do this, and there was no need to draw. As long as the edict was issued, the whole north would be in agitation immediately. Therefore, he led his ministers to persuade the people of Hedong and Hebei who lived in the shadow of the cavalry of the Liao Kingdom all year round. They were very brave in fighting. But what about the people of Henan? They would not fight without training or fighting? As long as the edict was issued, they would immediately escape military service. They hid in the mountains and forests and gathered together as thieves. The court not only could not conquer men and soldiers, but also sent troops to eradicate them. Then, the Hebei people were trapped in the military, and the Henan people were reunited and disturbed the prosperity of the earth and the earth was even more hindered the work of farming.

The river management was not good, but Zhao Fu, who wrote an edict to be a flatterer, also wrote a letter to him. In ancient times, soldiers were in exchange for war. Flying arrows were on the top and walking on the post were on the bottom. What does this mean? War is not a fight for war, but a fight for peace. We fight above, but we continue to send envoys to discuss peace with each other. Because we dare to fight, it is conducive to peace. We will not be forced by the other party to propose some excessive rise.

The key is whether Xiao Yanyan would agree to the peace proposal in the Song Dynasty. Unless the Song Dynasty offered the ten counties in Guannan, it would be better to let the Liao Kingdom send 50,000 elite troops stationed outside Dongshuimen.

Otherwise, it would be that the conditions like Song Zhenzong were raised, not under the city. Maybe the mother and son's lives were not guaranteed, and Xiao Yanyan might not agree.

Therefore, Zhao Fu was speechless and unconvincing. Anyway, he said a lot of nonsense, so it didn't work.

Some people also said that some people in the court said that the king's army was defeated and the foreign soldiers were arrogant. At this time, peace talks meant that we were afraid of him. But in fact, it was Fan Kuai's empty words. The Huns were easy to fight. General Fan, have you defeated them? Therefore, you need to cultivate internally to prepare for war, and externally to Xu Huan Alliance, it is best to have some appointment letters and gift coins... In fact, the Song Dynasty gave the Liao Kingdom some benefits, such as marriage or offering coins. Will the Liao Kingdom invade these benefits?

Zhao Kuang was a little loyal and exhaled blood, and he was still married. I will marry your daughter to the Liao people.

However, the quasi-Crown Prince Yuan Xi (who changed his name again) said it more rationally.

Spring is here, and it is the season for sowing. At this time, will the people be convinced and at ease by drawing the people into righteous soldiers? Besides, can they be used without training? That is, they can go to the battlefield, which costs a lot, can the national economy be able to bear it? Moreover, the enemy goes out of the frontier and the border is stable. Even if they invade again, it will be after autumn. It is better to have talents and planners first, give them military power, give some rights, select strong brigades, guard the border city, and give them good care of their wives, children, and young people, and stimulate their courage. Will they be afraid of the enemy if they are inspiring their troops?

Then he said a lot, almost every one of them was meaningful, because Yuan Xi did not persuade Zhao Kuangyi. In desperation, Li Fang notified Song Jiu of these situations together, hoping that Song Jiu would persuade Zhao Kuangyi.

After all, others were on the front line and repelled the Liao people, and their words were even more convincing.

Song Jiu did not pay attention to what others said, but noticed Yuan Xi's speech.

At that time, Song Jiu was the first to suspect that Yuan Xi was given guidance from him.

Of course, it is also possible that Yuan Xi is "genius of his talents".

The second suspicion is that Yuan Xi wants to take office.

Zhao Kuangyi also participated in the government affairs when he was the prefect of Kaifeng, but he was different. He was not the crown prince. No matter what, it was not a big suspicion. Zhao Kuangyin even wanted to let him say it.

Then I sighed in my heart, boy, you are too anxious.

In fact, many people are struggling to get ahead. Zhao Pu is anxious. Master, I have handed you a ladder. Why don’t you call me into Beijing?

Li Fang thought to himself, although I stayed there, I stayed for a short time, with Song Jiu and Zhao Pu behind me, all of whom were like wolves and tigers. How should I deal with it?

Also, Zhao Fu, Tian Xi, Hu Dan and others are also anxious. I don’t want the prime minister, even if I’m afraid of being a deputy prime minister, what should I do?

In fact, the person who was truly promoted was accompanying Song Jiu's sister-in-law to enjoy a happy life at home.

The last person who was promoted to the top was reading books at Zhang Qi's home, or sighing at the screen window. If he had a new person and forgot his old person, why didn't he come to visit me?

Zhao Kuangyi said indignantly: "Song Qing, I don't know, but when I think of hundreds of thousands of people in Hebei, I feel heartbroken."

Song Jiu finally got it.

Zhao Kuangyi's thoughts on the Northern Expedition this time are really fake.

It was either the Northern Expedition or the Hebei situation was a big deal, or Zhao Kuangyi himself made mistakes in employing people.

If you do not express your expression, how to explain to the people of the world, at least you cannot explain to the people of Hebei.

Maybe it would be better for Yuan Xi to stop Zhao Kuangyi when he spoke, but he was rushing back, so he continued to pretend to insist on the Northern Expedition. Anyway, Song Jiu came back, and he would continue to give him a step.
