Zhao Ji's departure from Beijing is not the despondency that people imagine, and it has nothing to do with going out of Beijing to avoid the limelight.

But the officials who impeached him apparently didn't think so, so they secretly rejoiced.

They were happy that Zhao Ji was naturally not happy, so he said very seriously: "The minister went to the north this time, and only then did he know how much of a threat the Liao people posed to the Great Song Dynasty...... There is no danger over there, once the Liao army goes south, it will be like a flood crossing the border, and it will rush all the way to the city of Bianliang. ”

Zhao Shu has never been to the north either, so he is listening carefully at the moment as a reference for his own decision-making.

"But forget about those water networks and paddy fields, Chen found it this time...... It's a joke. Zhao Ji said: "The secret spies of the Liao army are active in the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, and they know very well which places can be passed and which places cannot be walked, so instead of spending money, food and manpower on this, it is better to train soldiers more." ”

"Ahem, ahem!"

Someone was coughing violently, Zhao Ji frowned and looked at him and asked, "Is this a cold?" ”

His attitude was never disgusted, and the official did not dare to speak, but bowed his head and pleaded guilty.

The prince who returned with the momentum, this momentum is incredible!

"Tell me." Zhao Shu was very interested in this.

"Those water networks and paddy fields can't stop the Liao army from going south, let me put it this way, unless the whole north is dug up and dug into a muddy pond, otherwise it is self-inflicted! Deceive oneself as well as others! ”

The hall exploded in an instant!

"That's a big fallacy!" An official came out and said: "The water network and paddy fields in the north are there, so the Liao army does not dare to go south. ”

Zhao Ji looked at this person and said lightly: "There are more than 6,000 soldiers who followed to the north this time, and the water network and paddy fields along the way can be stopped?" Even if it's 60,000, 600,000 can't stop it! In the past few decades, the Liao army did not go south, not because they were afraid of those water networks and paddy fields, but because they learned a lesson in the war of that year. ”

At that time, the alliance of the Yuanyuan was first and foremost the strength of the warriors, so that the Liao people knew that the Great Song Dynasty still had the strength to fight, and then there were peace talks.

Without force as a guarantee, let alone a water network and paddy fields, even if it is blocked by a mountain range, the Liao people will still go south and seize the prosperous land of the Great Song Dynasty.

The more he thought about it, the more angry he became, and he really wanted to roll up his sleeves and slap this person. But seeing that some officials looked disapproving, he felt that there was a long way to go to change the concept of these courtiers.

"You were afraid of the Liao army, so you instigated the diversion of the Yellow River......"

The temperature in the hall rose a little, and the officials blushed a little.

Diverting the Yellow River can be called the fearlessness of the ignorant, but the Great Song Dynasty monarchs and ministers did this, and the reason in their bones was that they were afraid of the Liao army going south.

"You are afraid of the Liao army, so you instigate the widespread distribution of paddy fields in the north...... But those paddy fields only seem to me to provide food and grass for the invaders! ”

Stupidity!

Very foolish!

Everyone can understand Zhao Ji's hidden words.

He was impeached out of Beijing for mocking the ministers for being shameless, and at this moment he dared to ridicule the ministers for being stupid......

Sure enough, it's a young man! is bold and fearless, and his words will make the ministers discouraged.

Deathly silence!

"Can't you really stop it?" Zhao Shu had never seen the real situation in the north, and everything was based on the introduction of the courtiers.

But now he regrets it.

Would the advice given by a group of courtiers who are afraid of the Liao people go to the bones be good?

The thought spun through his mind for a moment, and then vanished, not knowing when he would be recalled.

But he was refreshed and felt that another big rock had gone to his heart.

It turns out that the water network and paddy fields in the north can't stop the Liao army!

So what's the point?

Zhao Ji said: "Your Majesty, it really can't be stopped, if it can be blocked, where is the road to the north?" ”

Someone said: "But with these water networks and paddy fields, the Liao army cannot calmly attack the city in the north......

Belch!

Zhao Ji covered his forehead, it was very strange why such a courtier could enter the court.

"Do you understand the speed of soldiers? Do you know how to capture thieves and kings? ”

Zhao Ji said angrily: "If I lead the army, I will lead the army all the way to Bianliang, what is the northern attack on the city, once the enemy army goes south, it will be a battle to destroy the country, who will entangle with you in the north?" Who? ”

A group of idiots who don't understand the battle formation to command the battle formation, and a group of fools who don't understand strategy to design defensive means......

Thankfully, all of this was able to change, thankfully!

Zhao Shu was shocked in his heart and ordered: "Let Shen An come." ”

Later, Shen An came, and it looked like he was woken up in his sleep, and there was still some residual breath from getting up.

Zhao Shu asked, "The water network and paddy fields in the north may block the enemy's southward movement?" ”

Shen An didn't expect it to be this problem, so he said listlessly: "There are fish in the water net, which can allow the enemy to fish." There was food in the paddy fields, which could supply the enemy army, and as for stopping the enemy army from moving south...... Your Majesty, the Yellow River can't do it, can those small rivers and ditches do? ”

"The Yellow River can't be ......"

This sentence made Zhao Shu completely wake up.

"When we diverted the Yellow River, weren't we afraid that the Liao army would come by boat? Water networks and paddy fields can stop the enemy, so what do you need the army to do? Wouldn't it be better to dig up all the north of Bianliang directly? ”

Shen An really doesn't understand the brain circuits of these people, starting from the diversion of the Yellow River, they are indomitable, and they have the essence of Yugong moving mountains, but they don't know that the Yellow River can't be changed, and they have changed from a mother to a father, a roaring father.

After being beaten several times by this father, the monarchs of the Great Song Dynasty still continued to divert the Yellow River with perseverance, if it were not for Shen An, that flood would have brought greater disasters to the Great Song Dynasty.

Zhao Shu was very relieved, and he was really relieved when he was afraid.

The Great Song Dynasty avoided disasters and avoided consuming a lot of money and grain, which is good news.

"In this case, then the north will still focus on vigilance and defense from now on, don't get any more paddy fields, the people can get it if they want, don't force them to ......"

Well, another defensive measure has been vetoed, I don't know if the person who formulated it is still there, if he is, the old face is estimated to be red like a monkey's butt.

Shen An and Zhao Ji exchanged glances, and the joy in their hearts gradually overflowed.

This step-by-step victory, step by step change, the attitude of the Great Song Dynasty towards the Liao people is also changing, congratulations!

Zhao Shu was happy in his heart, seeing his son's embarrassed appearance and tired look, he inevitably felt pity in his heart.

"The prince went to the north this time and killed the enemy......

He looked at Shen An, and the ministers were also looking at Shen An.

Is this true?

Shen An, a famous general of the Great Song Dynasty, said with a solemn face: "Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the king cut the enemy general off the horse with a knife. ”

He certainly wouldn't say that the timing was his choice.

Zhao Ji killed the enemy, is this considered meritorious?

Absolutely.

In the future, whoever dares to beep for his lack of qualifications and merits, Zhao Ji will be able to slap his face immediately.

And with this credit, Zhao Ji's status will naturally be different in the future. For example, if there is a martial matter, he can express his views out of the identity of the government.

That's the real benefit!

Zhao Shu nodded and said with satisfaction: "Meritorious, very good." ”

Simple five words, there are people among the ministers who impeached Zhao Ji, and his old face turned red in an instant.

Zhao Ji said very honestly: "Your Majesty has a good reputation, and the minister just killed the enemy general, which is not a credit." ”

This is irony!

The few officials who had impeached Zhao Ji all wanted to find a crack in the ground to get into, and felt that the prince was really too mean.

No, it's black-bellied.

Look at his honest face, who dares to say that this is irony?

It's black-bellied!

Zhao Shu said with satisfaction: "Understand humility, it seems that you have grown a lot this time, go ahead, rest and rest, you can come and go as you like during this time." ”

Here's the bonus!

Zhao Ji saluted and retired.

Shen An then retired, and he had to go home to see Yang Zhuoxue's mother and son.

After he left, Zhao Shu asked, "The prince is bold this time, and I am very relieved. ”

"Congratulations to Your Majesty."

The ministers congratulated again, and Zhao Shu smiled: "The prince is simple, but how can Shen An reward him?" ”

Belch!

Everyone was silent, but someone blurted out: "Doesn't he like to break people's legs?" ”

"Hahahaha!"

The ministers couldn't help but laugh.

In the midst of this laughter, Zhao Shu said: "He has also become a father and has a son, so don't mess around like this anymore." ”

There is a hint in it.

Shen An is not small, and it is time to reuse it.

The ministers were still trying to digest this hint, and Zhao Shu said, "I remember that he was a convert, right? ”

"Your Majesty is wise."

The ministers were perfunctory, and Zhao Shu said: "The ministers heard that he wants the champion Hou ......."

This one......

Champion Hou, that represents too much significance, and full of aggression.

Hou, the champion of the former Han Dynasty, is a representative of aggression like fire, and he doesn't match the temperament of the Great Song Dynasty!

Zhao Shu obviously thought of this, so he smiled and said: "The champion marquis is the title of the former Han Dynasty, and the Great Song Dynasty is naturally different, so let's be named the marquis of Guixin." ”

The founding marquis of Guixin County, referred to as the Marquis of Guixin.

Han Qi said enviously: "Shen An was only in his twenties and was made a marquis with military merits, which made the ministers envious, and he hated to be a young man again and fight for the Great Song Dynasty." ”

"yes!" Zeng Gongliang said: "Although the minister's title is higher than his, he is all because of his official position, and when he goes out and asks others, the minister is embarrassed to say...... Military merit! ”

Military merit is the dream of countless people, but few can achieve it.

……

When Shen An arrived home, Taro had already woken up and was looking at the world blankly.

Yang Zhuoxue said happily: "Official, taro is very edible!" ”

It's a blessing to be able to eat!

Shen An touched his son's face with a smile, asked Yang Zhuoxue about his physical condition, and then went to the front yard.

Wang Yan was already waiting.

"The students of the academy went out to argue with others, and the other party was speechless, and the other party became angry, and several people teamed up to beat the students of the college......"

Wang Yan's face was a little colder: "Someone immediately reported to the official, but Wang Xi, the governor of Kaifeng Mansion, said that the two sides beat each other...... Shelter those people. ”

Shen An asked, "Where are those people?" ”

"It's a student of Shengxin Academy, they are all in their twenties and thirties, and they still haven't been admitted to the Jinshi."
