Chapter 1097: Unfavorable Situation (II)

Without thinking too much, Yelu Hongji adopted Yelu Yanxi's method and immediately issued an order, ordering the West Road Envoy to send troops to garrison the Liaoxia border to protect the people of Daliao.

Yang Huairen also thought of a strategy, so he was not in a hurry at this time, and said that you will send troops over now, and you will have to call back again in a few days, but it is also quite interesting to let the grandsons of these Khitan soldiers walk their legs in vain.

After all, Yelu Hongji still wants to win over Yang Huairen, maybe he wants to cultivate the next King Pu, even if Yang Huairen refuses to sell Song through Liao, he still has Princess Anguo, the Khitan princess, and he has enough conspiracy to force Yang Huairen to comply.

At that time, Yang Huairen is unwilling to contact Liao, and Liaoguo can also contact Yang Huairen in the name of Princess Anguo.

Yang Huairen hadn't thought about this, of course, if his plan was successful, there would be no such troubles in the future.

Yelu Hongji did not immediately send a few important ministers and Yang Huairen out of the palace, but eagerly chatted about some things about the bowl festival before letting them out of the palace.

Walking out of the palace gate, Yelu Bawotai comforted Yang Huairen, "Uncle, don't worry, I know that the war between Song and Xia is none of your business, and it is not up to you to decide." ”

Yang Huairen also expressed his gratitude, originally Yelu Bawotai wanted to send Yang Huairen back to Wanguo Temple, but because he was worried that Yang Huairen would be suddenly summoned to the palace, Brother Hei Niu and other brothers were already waiting outside the palace gate, Yang Huairen thanked Yelu Bawotai for his kindness, and then they dispersed.

After waiting for his own people to be left, Brother Hei Niu asked cautiously, "Did the old Khitan emperor also get the news from the west?" ”

Yang Huairen nodded indifferently, "But don't worry, brothers, even if he has doubts about me, he must not be able to figure out the real purpose of my trip."

And I observed Yelu Hongji's face, he shouldn't have thought that the Great Song Dynasty sent troops this time, just holding back his strength to fight a decisive battle with Western Xia, so he just sent the Liaoguo West Road to recruit the original 100,000 soldiers and horses under the command of the division to enter the Liaoxia border, and did not use the Great Liao Forbidden Army in Zhongjing Road. ”

Brother Tianba wondered, "Is this good or bad?" ”

"Uh......"

Yang Huairen didn't know how to explain to him for a while, and Lu Jinyi helped explain, "It's not good, it's not bad." The 100,000 Liao troops used by Yelu Hongji were originally garrisons in the Song and Xia border areas, but they were only stationed in the border areas.

This kind of action has an impact on the war, and both the Great Song Dynasty and the Western Xia will be careful of the movements of the Liao army, but this kind of response will not affect the current overall situation of our Great Song Dynasty.

But if the war between Song and Xia changed greatly, in my opinion, the 100,000 Liao army would definitely not stand idly by. At that time, it will be a little unfavorable to our Great Song.

If the Song army took the liberty of pursuing the victory, it would inevitably have to worry that the back road would be cut off by the Liao army that suddenly entered the Western Xia, and if it won and could not expand the results, then this victory would not be of much significance. ”

Brother Tianba was still a little confused, "Isn't it possible to get back a lot of states and counties?" ”

This time it was Brother Hei Niu who spoke, "Those states and counties were originally our Great Song Dynasty, and for decades, these states and counties have not only not developed under the governance of Western Xia, but have gradually withered. ”

The brothers can know it in their hearts, but it saves Yang Huairen a lot of tongues, "This matter is still not good for the Great Song Dynasty in the long run."

The expedition of Zhang Xianggong and the official family has been prepared for a long time, and a lot of manpower and material resources have been consumed, if only a few states and counties are recovered, and can not fundamentally attack the Western Xia, the cost and profit of this battle are unreasonable.

For example, if you do business, you invest ten times of money, and you earn back five times of money, and this transaction is earned; But if you invest ten times of money, and the money you earn back is not enough money, this transaction takes a lot of effort on your part, although you make money, but the transaction is still not worth doing. ”

Brother Tianba understood now, and also thought of the key to the matter, "What does that brother mean, even the 100,000 Liao troops will be brought back for him?" ”

"Hmm." Yang Huairen replied, "Not only the 100,000, but I want the Liao army of the whole country to come back to Zhongjing to quell the chaos." ”

"Brother is going to rebel in Zhongjing City?"

Yang Huairen pushed Tianba's younger brother, "What are you doing?" Just a few hundred of us, how can we rebel? I mean, on the day I got married to Princess Anguo on the Bowl Festival, I forced Xiao Sabi to rebel and turn our speculation about him into facts. ”

"What is my brother going to do?"

Yang Huairen saw that there were all his own people around him, so he smiled slightly, "Flicker." ”

"Huh?"

Brother Tianba's mouth grew in surprise, "Brother, are you going to persuade Xiao Sabi that old boy to rebel?" Aren't you afraid that he will be bad for you? ”

The other brothers also showed expressions of disbelief, Yang Huairen waved his hand in denial, "Don't worry, what I said about fooling is not necessarily that I am fooling Xiao Sabi myself, but there are other ways to achieve the purpose of fooling him in a daze and acting blindly." ”

The brothers still seemed to be confused, and they didn't understand how Yang Huairen didn't have to go out in person, and he could immediately rebel against Xiao Sabi.

Yang Huairen paused for a moment before he said slowly, "Do you still remember the information about the Prince's Mansion that Cui Qing sent back every day?" ”

Ke Xiaochuan has been following up on this matter, he recalled the information he reviewed every day, and there seemed to be nothing too special, so he asked, "We already know a lot of that information, and there is nothing very special." ”

Yang Huairen said, "I think I may have been wrong for the two main and deputy hall masters of the Wind God Wei Beifeng Hall recently. In the morning, I mistakenly blamed the way the hall master did business with the Khitans in Zhongjing City, thinking that he was too rough and not careful enough.

But later I learned that he did that, and he really covered up his identity. And before, I also inadvertently blamed Deputy Hall Master Cui Qingcui once. Xiaochuan, can you think of where I blamed Vice Hall Master Cui? ”

Ke Xiaochuan was understood at this time, and smiled with relief, "What my brother said is that in the daily report of Deputy Hall Master Cui, there are Yelu Yanxi and the wives and concubines in the prince's mansion singing every night?" ”

Yang Huairen praised, "What you said is right, this is exactly the case." When we used to think of the contradiction between Yelu Yanxi and Xiao Sabi, we always thought about it big and thought about the major events in the court.

But this also ignores some small things and little people in life, don't underestimate these little things and small people, maybe start a fierce contradiction, a small thing, a small person is enough.

And this is really the key to turning the tide of the situation. ”
