"Official, you should know that in the northeast region of the Liao Kingdom, that place is the territory of the Jurchen tribe. And one of them is a tribe called the Wanyan tribe, and their leader Wanyan Aguta ancestors and grandchildren are determined to unify the Jurchen tribe. ”

"I have heard that there is a popular game among Liao officials called Jurchen fighting, which not only uses Jurchens as targets to practice riding and archery, but also buys Jurchen goods at low prices.

The Liao court connived and acquiesced in the behavior of these people, perhaps this is the reason why the Jurchens rose up. ”

After Zhao Xu finished speaking, he looked at Tang Ning and said, "But what does this have to do with the question I just asked you?" ”

Tang Ning replied with a smile: "Don't be anxious, and listen to Weichen's slow analysis."

Wanyan Aguta's hatred for the Liao State was not as deep as his father and grandfather, and the only thing he wanted was that the Jurchens would stop being bullied.

However, the Liao people did not give him this opportunity, and Yelu Yanxi once went to Chunzhou in person after succeeding to the throne and fished in the Mingtong River. According to the old practice, the chiefs of the Jurchen tribe within a radius of thousands of miles had to go to the palace to meet them.

At the head fish banquet, Yelu Yanxi ordered the Jurchen chieftains to sing and dance in turn for fun, and when they arrived at Wanyan, Wanyan Aguda just sat upright and looked at it, and excused himself and said no.

Yelu Yanxi repeatedly asked, but Wanyan still refused.

From that time on, the beam between Wanyan Aguta and Yelu Yanxi was concluded. After that, after Wanyan Agu returned to Wanyan, he went around to conquer the Jurchen tribes who disobeyed him.

Further back, as you know, two months ago he gathered more than 4,000 troops, sent troops to Ningjiang Prefecture, killed Yelu Xie Shi, won a complete victory, and returned triumphantly. ”

Although Zhao Xu can figure out the trick with a little thought, he really doesn't have the leisure right now. waved his hand and said, "Tang Qing, if there's anything in this, just say it, don't let me guess." ”

"Yes." After Tang Ning agreed, he continued: "Weichen's meaning is to let Wanyan Aguda fight against the Liao State first. When they are inseparable and Liao is unable to deal with it, we will send troops to Yanyun again.

In this way, wouldn't the sixteen states of Yanyun be at your fingertips? ”

Zhao Xu frowned and said, "How many people are there under Wanyan Agu's hands?" You just believe in him so much that you are willing to put the treasure on him? ”

Tang Ning thought about it in his heart and felt outrageous, when Wanyan Agu fought for the first time in history, only two thousand five hundred Jurchen warriors followed him, but this person won all the way to the end.

No matter how many troops the Liao State sent, he could always defeat the Liao people. I don't know if it's because he's too good at it, or if there's some other reason.

So Tang Ning replied: "Official, we have nothing to do now anyway. The peace treaty that has just been signed, you can't immediately turn your face and deny people, and then attack the Liao State, right?

Due to the influence of his father, Wanyan Aguta has been familiar with the Central Plains culture since he was a child. There are many more military books, classics, and so on

Less is also a little read.

Coupled with the barbaric nature of the Jurchens, they broke through Ningjiang Prefecture this time, and they won countless ordnance and armor, which was even more powerful.

The Liao army has not been at war for a hundred years, and some time ago, didn't we also find out? Weichen faced 8,000 Liao cavalry on the plain outside Xijin Mansion, and if it had been before, Weichen's troops would have been defeated long ago.

But Weichen fired a volley of fire crossbows, and it was them who fled. The Liao army has fallen!

Don't talk about us, I'm afraid they can't even beat the Jurchens. ”

Zhao Xu thought for a while, nodded and said, "Indeed, the Datong Mansion is also losing because You and Lu have an absolute disadvantage in numbers......

But if this Wanyan Aguta and his Jurchen tribe are really as powerful as you say, why don't we form an alliance with the Jurchens and join hands to attack the Liao State?

After the matter is completed, the sixteen states of Yanyun will be owned by my holy dynasty, and how to deal with the love of the Jurchens in other places is not also a way?

Tang Qing, what do you think of this method? ”

Tang Ning shook his head and said, "Weichen feels that although this method is feasible, it is too risky. First of all, the Jurchens are nomads, and it is in their nature to speak with their fists.

Secondly, there is no rudeness and shame in the hearts of such uncivilized savages. It is not unreasonable in their eyes to form an alliance today and betray tomorrow.

Therefore, it is very risky to form an alliance with them, and if they suddenly turn their heads against us, will we not suffer in vain?

What's more, the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun are not only military important places for us, but also for Liao. He lives in the northern part of the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, and he should be as clear as we are about the importance of the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun.

So what Wei Chen was afraid of was that he had formed an alliance with him, but when we were about to take the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, he stabbed him in the back. ”

Zhao Xu sighed and said, "Your consideration is not unreasonable, so let's put this matter aside for the time being."

Since you believe that Wanyan Aguda can bring great trouble to the Liao Kingdom, then I also believe in your judgment. I'll send someone from the Martial Arts to gather information over there, and I'll let you know if the time comes. ”

"Yes." Downing arched.

"Alright, you go home. Today, Dekang's child secretly ran out of the palace, and the Imperial City Division said that he went to your house. It seems that during the Spring Festival palace banquet this year, this child will never forget when he sees the third child of your Tang family. ”

"This ...... It's normal for children to be ignorant. Who hasn't seen one when they're young? ”

Zhao Xu pointed a finger at himself and said, "Me." ”

"......" Tang Ning was speechless.

Zhao Xu smiled and said: "Actually, I am very optimistic about the future of these two children, if the two of them can finally come together, it will also be a good thing." ”

"Wechen has no opinion." Tang Ning replied with a smile: "Although Princess Dekang is a little fond of tossing, she is kind-hearted and is still a very good child in essence.

It's just that when Tang Wen was not honest, Weichen was afraid that this kid didn't know how to lift and hurt Princess Dekang's heart. ”

"Hahaha!" Zhao Xu laughed heartily: "Indeed, that kid jumped up and down during the Spring Festival palace banquet, if it wasn't for your wife to cure him, he would have demolished my palace." ”

Tang Ning smiled awkwardly, but Zhao Xu waved his hand and said, "It's a good thing that children are energetic, I don't care." ”

Speaking of this, Zhao Xu covered his mouth with a handkerchief and coughed for a while. Tang Ning stepped forward and patted Zhao Xu on the back, and after Zhao Xu eased up, he said, "It's not too early, you can go back quickly."

When you come back from Hebei, you haven't returned home yet.

If Dekang doesn't want to go back to the palace, let her go, but you can't treat my daughter badly. ”

"It's nature." Downing hastened to reassure.

Before leaving, Tang Ning said to Zhao Xu: "Official, take care of your body." ”

Zhao Xu smiled and said, "Don't worry, before I see you recover Yanyun, I won't die easily if I say anything." ”

“……”

This kind of straightforward Zhao Xu made Tang Ning very uncomfortable, but Zhao Xu would have this kind of behavior, but it was expected by Tang Ning.

When I returned home, I saw Princess Dekang looking into the courtyard with her chin propped up in the attic, where Tang Wen was practicing boxing under Qi Fu's guidance.

This small attic was originally built by Tang Ning to prepare for the summer, but Dekang liked it after coming to the Danyang Hou Mansion for the first time, and she didn't have much consciousness when she occupied the magpie's nest.

A child who was just seven years old, Tang Ning had no choice but to go with her.

At dinner, Li Zi held a child to feed him, this is the fourth child of the Tang family, Tang Gong, is a boy, born in January.

At that time, Tang Ning was fortunately still at home, watching Tang Gong get out of the belly of the plum. At that time, his crying was not as loud as Tang Liang and Tang Wen, and Tang Ning was worried that this child would not survive.

But then he still grew up well, which made Tang Ning very pleased.

The naming order of the Tang boys is to be gentle and frugal, but whether someone will take the word thrifty and let it is still not certain.

Pei Xiantong saw the tragic scene when Li Zi gave birth, so he grabbed Tang Ning's arm and begged Tang Ning not to let her get pregnant.

Tang Ning said in his heart that he didn't have the final say in this matter, Pei Xiantong didn't want children and was greedy for the joy of fish and water, he drilled into Tang Ning's quilt every night, and didn't even let Tang Ning sleep soundly, the hypocrisy was terrible!
