Chapter 1098

Compared with Su Dongpo, who seems to be a little schadenfreude, Zhang Qi, who is the boss of the Privy Council, has a better understanding of the armed forces of the Great Song Dynasty today.

"If the Liao Kingdom really wants to compete with my Great Song Dynasty, can my Great Song Dynasty win?" Zhao Xu, the son of heaven, stroked the chin that had grown stubble, and couldn't help asking.

"Your Majesty, my Great Song Dynasty will naturally be able to win the final victory, but the cranes and mussels compete with each other, and the fishermen will benefit......" Zhang Qi did not hesitate to stand on the side of the Great Song Dynasty first, but he was not optimistic about the results after the war.

"Because even if my Great Song Dynasty wins, it will inevitably be a tragic victory, when my Great Song Dynasty's national strength is greatly damaged. I have lost more than half of my land, and the Western Xia, who has been eyeing my Great Song Dynasty, or those Tibetan subordinates on the Zhubians, will definitely not sit back and wait for my Great Song Dynasty to recuperate and recover. ”

Su Dongpo's face couldn't help but nod a little ugly. "Yes, after all, my Great Song Dynasty has not yet completely calmed the world, over the years, the armament has been relaxed, the government and the opposition are all comfortable and accustomed, and there are really not many soldiers who can fight."

Zhao Xu, the son of heaven, smashed his mouth. "Our army ...... on Shaanxi Road in the Great Song Dynasty"

"Your Majesty, the armies of Shaanxi Road and North Shaanxi Road must not be moved lightly." When Zhang Qi heard this, he hurriedly raised an objection.

"Although the northwest border army of my Great Song Dynasty is strong, but Your Majesty, don't forget that although the strength of Western Xia has been greatly damaged, its wolf ambition is still eyeing the northwest of my Great Song Dynasty, and although the Liao army in Hedong Province has lost Xiazhou, the strength of the Liao army in Hedong Province has not been damaged."

"If the Northwest Frontier Army is transferred to other places, it will be less useless, and more will be, then the Great Song Dynasty will have to be prepared to lose the North Shaanxi Road, or even the entire northern part of the Shaanxi Road."

"I understand what Zhang Qing meant, alas...... I, the Great Song Dynasty, do not have the strength to decide the world in a war. It seems that we still need to wait for the opportunity......" Zhao Xu, the Son of Heaven, nodded regretfully.

Although he is determined to restore the old land of the Han and Tang Dynasties, but now, his pro-government time is still short, and the relaxation of the Great Song Dynasty's military preparation is not a matter of one or two days, all of this takes time, not in a hurry, he is still young, and there is time.

And Wang Wushan is the same age as himself, and he still has a lot of time to accumulate strength.

"Let the Ministry of Rites continue to negotiate with the Liao envoys, and try to find out the hole cards and bottom line of those Liao people. In short, my Da Song is on the side of reason this time, so naturally I can't retreat too much. ”

Su Dongpo nodded understandingly. "Your Majesty, rest assured, the minister knows what to do."

"As for Zhang Qing, you should order Zhubian Town to strengthen its vigilance, so that Liao State will not have a chance to take advantage of it."

"The Song people are very tenacious in this negotiation, and we are afraid that it will be difficult for the Song people to back down too much." Yelu and Lu Wei stroked their thick beards and stood in the middle of the hall and spoke.

At this moment, Yelu Hongji, the son of the Great Liao Emperor, had already rushed back to Shangjing in Liao, but he didn't expect it, and he didn't wait for the good news as he expected.

The Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty was very tough, almost not giving an inch, although Yelu Hongji was very angry, but if you want him to order the army to invade the south now, he is also a little hesitant.

After all, many civil and military generals in the court expressed strong opposition to the Xingshi and Song Dynasty, in a word, today's Da Liao is really too poor.

Moreover, the frequent disasters in the Youyan and Yan areas before also made Daliao spend millions of taxes in order to quell the disasters and appease the people.

If you really want to take the country, you need to raise military expenses and grain and grass first, and I am afraid that you will not be able to get a few million guan without a few million guan.

However, the DPRK and China don't have so much money, so they can't rob it, right?

Of course, the ministers also said that although they couldn't really rejuvenate the Song Dynasty, it was still okay to make gestures and gestures to threaten.

"Your Majesty, my brother thinks that now that my Daliao is in a difficult time, disasters are frequent in various places, if the army goes south, just the money and food needed by the soldiers and horses will be able to empty my Daliao's treasury.

What's more, now that the north of our country is not at peace, if a large number of troops are transferred to southern Xinjiang, I am afraid that something will happen in the north.

Therefore, my brother thinks that the Song people have deceived me too much, and I must have an explanation, and the Song people have invaded my territory, and I must return it. "Yelu and Lu Wei are real people, so they naturally have to tell the truth.

After all, he sincerely hoped that Da Liao would be able to survive this difficult time safe and sound. Hearing the words of his compatriots, although Yelu Hongji looked angry, he also bowed his head slightly helplessly.

Indeed, today's Da Liao really wants to go to war desperately. Unless he, the son of Da Liao, doesn't want Da Liao to continue to be in the country for a long time.

"Your Highness, what do you mean, is it impossible to let Lord Xiao Wuna spread out the land cards to Song Ting?" Seeing that the Son of Heaven's face was gloomy and displeased, Xiao Shen on the side was neither yin nor yang.

Yelu and Lu Wei shook their heads slowly. "Of course not, but I feel that if we take back Xiazhou through negotiations with Song Ting, but if Wang Wushan is still in Naxi North Road, I am afraid that a region like Xiazhou, which is close to Song Realm, is still prone to turmoil and changes."

"Wang Wushan......" Yelu Hongji stroked his gray eyebrows and narrowed his eyes. The name of Wang Wushan can definitely be called thunderous for Yelu Hongji now. "This child is really my big henchman."

"Wang Wushan......" Xiao Shen smashed his mouth, and when he heard this name, he felt that the two eggs under his crotch were hurting, and it was this guy who made Da Liao really lose face.

First, the 500,000 troops of Da Liao attacked a small Youzhou for a long time, and after that, Da Liao could only withdraw in humiliation.

Now, it was the soldiers and horses assigned by his king Wushan, who went down to Xiazhou one day, and it was just a snap that it didn't take long for Da Liao's left face to be pulled, and he stretched out his hand again, and gave Da Liao's right cheek a hard ear brace, which caught people off guard.

"There is such a person in the Song Kingdom, which really makes it difficult for me to sit and lie down. I can't wait to eat its flesh and sleep on its skin,......" Yelu Hongji said with a lot of resentment.

In the past, Yelu Hongji naturally looked down on such a young Song official, thinking that he was just a favorite of the Great Song Emperor, but he was just a good and obedient person who could speak more and pat a few more sycophants.

However, who would have expected that Da Liao would be deflated by this person again and again, but he couldn't do anything with this person.

Xiao Feng first looked at his face and said: "Your Majesty, since Wang Wushan is my henchman, why don't you change the conditions we proposed?" ”

"How do you change it, do you want Song Ting to hand over this person to me?" Xiao Shen turned his face and looked at this favored minister, who was also very favored in front of the Son of Heaven, and said neither yin nor yang.

"My lord's words are wrong, unless my Da Liao can come to the city of Bianliang, otherwise, Emperor Song will definitely not agree." Xiao Feng looked at Xiao Shen first and smiled.

"And what do you want to say?" Yelu Hongji's gaze also fell on Xiao Fengxian's body and asked.

"Your Majesty, the minister remembers that many civil and military ministers of the Song Court are not on good terms with this Wang Wushan. Now, he Wang Wushan has repeatedly made contributions to the Song Court on the North Shaanxi Road, I am afraid that those ministers in the court and the central government have already been dissatisfied......

"If Your Majesty can let go of the anger in his heart and only aim at Wang Wushan, then Emperor Song will definitely be willing to continue to live in harmony with my Da Liao......

Yelu Hongji couldn't help but raise his brows, and raised his chin at Xiao Fengxian with great interest. "You go on ......"
