Chapter 366: Falsehood

If Lu Shu didn't do this, there would be no subsequent conflict.

After all, there were too many officials in the Song Dynasty who were greedy for life and afraid of death, not only Lu Xu, but also Sun Wei at the beginning. Not only is he greedy for life and afraid of death, but he is also very greedy. Not every border official is like Cai Ting. In fact, when Cheng Kan first knew about Yanzhou, he also tacitly ignored the Tibetan people who did not hide and plundered the Tumen area.

But Cheng Kan would not say such disgusting words, including Wang Ju caught Cheng Zhizhi, although Cheng Kan was so angry, he finally gave up. It is true that people have repelled the Tangut people, and it is true that it is wrong for Cheng to instruct him to do that.

Therefore, Lu Shu suddenly came up with this sentence, which made Li Sangou annoyed, and he asked, "Who is this dog official?" ”

"Daring, he is our Duke Lu," Lu Xu's guards shouted beside him.

"Is there such a dog official who is so greedy for life and afraid of death, and doesn't know what is right and wrong, and blasts him away."

Li Sangou gave an order, and many soldiers rushed up, no need to bang, Lu Shu fled.

Li Sangou came to Wang Quan's side and said, "Weng Weng, it doesn't seem to work, you must evacuate here." With this dog official here, not only will they not protect you, but they may take the initiative to give you to the Tangut people that day. ”

"Where are we going?"

"When the villagers are buried, I will escort you to Gyeongju, and then from Gyeongju to Zhengbaiqu, where to build water conservancy, get a large amount of wasteland, and close to Chang'an, you can cultivate and smelt swords, it is better than here."

"That's all," Wang Quan sighed.

Another old man asked, "What about the ancestral grave here?" ”

"Let's move away."

But it's easier said than done, how can so many living and dead people move? Just when everyone was in a dilemma, Lu Shu began to gather troops and horses.

Although he is greedy for life and afraid of death, he will not be as mad as Li Sangou said, and give the people of Wangjiazhai to the Tangut people, so that the Tangut people can calm down their anger. The main thing was that he was angry, and then let Li Sangou scold him twice, and his anger burned all of a sudden.

However, Li Sangou has nearly 1,000 horsemen under his command, everyone has horses, well-equipped, and there are 300 pack horses, even in Western Xia, it is also a cavalry that cannot be underestimated. Therefore, he gathered ten battalions of soldiers and horses, and at the same time wrote a letter and handed it to the capital with fast feet, anyway, it was nonsense, saying that Li Sangou colluded with the Western Xia people to rebel, and he was preparing to lead the troops to clean up.

At this time, Zhao Ducai hurried to Wangjiazhai, and he was also dumbfounded.

This matter made a big fuss, and he immediately said: "Zhao Tingshi, you immediately write down the incident, and tell Zi'an as it was, fortunately, there is Zhang Zhifu as proof, so you will not be framed by Lu Zhizhou." ”

Don't think this is the end of this, he has been in officialdom for a long time, although he has not been an official, but as an important official, he knows how ugly officialdom is. But it's okay, the main thing is that Lu Shu won't stay in Yanzhou for too long, and Guo Kui will be here soon.

…………

Zhao Ji was waiting for Han Qi's news, and the Privy Council wrote fourteen articles.

Will be united by the association.

Shogun Zuo personally led the soldiers to train.

The general must send scouts who are familiar with the dangers of the mountains and rivers, the distance of the roads, and the hypocrisy of the enemy.

Evaluate the failure of Kangding's use of troops to serve as a reference.

Familiar with the soldiers who defend the battle, so that each has a fixed number, the soldiers have a fixed general, respond to the enemy according to their strength, and seek complete victory in the battle, and can no longer cause the mistake of being tired and lured by the soldiers.

The thieves entered the big way, and they went to rescue each other, and they were not allowed to wait and see each other.

Selected spies, waiting for thieves to move.

Reward and punish the march in detail, and be punished in a hurry.

Cherish the border reserves, and do not use them unreasonably.

Appropriate official affairs should be familiar and neat, deal with emergencies slowly, and not be too late to make mistakes and make mistakes.

Officers are not allowed to settle accounts with military officers in order to prevent collusion, unclear judgments, and delays in major matters.

It is forbidden to occupy soldiers excessively, use soldiers as private soldiers, and hinder the training of war defense.

If there is no end to the constraints, continue to list the interests and disadvantages.

It seems that it is not bad, Zhao Ji immediately gave permission, and issued an edict to notify the border officials of the heavy general.

But in reality, so many orders can be reduced to just four words: passive defense!

When Han Qi arrived in Chang'an, he immediately issued an order, and all generals, without the order of the commander (referring to Sizhizhou), were not allowed to lead troops into the western boundary without moderation.

This order is not that Han Qi is afraid of the Western Xia people, on the contrary, he has no interests now, and he is still the main battle faction.

However, it is similar to Wang Ju's thoughts, and he will get Ruoda Suizhou at once, and he will accept it when he sees it.

If it goes too far, and it really starts, there may not be good fruits to eat in Western Xia, but the Song Dynasty has decided that there will definitely be no good fruits to eat. Either look at next year, next year's wind and rain will be smooth, the Western Xia will be able to recover, and the Song Dynasty will also recover. Then act according to the situation.

But how to deal with Suizhou, he did not mention.

Then I received the news that Yang Ding was killed, and it was enough.

In fact, Western Xia did this, which is a bit of a snake to add to it, if the Song Dynasty is really forced to return to Suizhou, it is okay to do it. However, he couldn't, so he did these things, but blocked the mouth of the Song Dynasty Yanhe faction.

Anyway, Han Qi was not worried but happy, and he played it. The court should listen to the advice of Xue Xiang and Jia Kui, and if the thief is like this, he should stay in Suizhou.

Because he knew that the imperial court was already discussing the abandonment of Suizhou, he was a little anxious in this recital, and did not explain the reason. The Privy Council decreed to ask why. Before the edict arrived, Han Qi's second chapter arrived.

The enemy He Dengji and He Zhengzhi did not come to our Song Dynasty, this is not going to make peace with our dynasty, the court should prepare for war, and the money and silk given in that year might as well be saved and used as a plan to use troops.

The imperial court planned to let Wei Mingshan move to the idle field area with tens of thousands of people, but the idle field area could not accommodate so many people. If you move inland, the leader of the Tibetan people and the subordinate households of his own clan will be divided into two places, and the people will be uneasy, and they will not change.

Suizhou has its own free land, which can make Weiming Mountain and the successor to the world, and can also be used to fight the Western Xia. As long as the imperial court handed over the newly built empty city to them, it could get tens of thousands of mortal soldiers to contain the Westerners. It even made the Western Xia people guard and prepare, protracted for a long time, and they should be tired.

Especially this one, it is very similar to what Wang Ju said, Suizhou is very close to Yinzhou, so it is consumed, the Song Dynasty can afford it, but the Western Xia can't afford it!

Now Naqi surrenders people, and the city and the land are self-abandoned, which is the trend of self-weakness. Besides, since the grudge, Xichun has been defeated repeatedly, and has won a lot of heads, my army is strong, why is it weak? If the imperial court is afraid of huge expenditures, it is also very simple, as long as the two of them are generously cared for and the two of them, they will do their best to repay the court. Attacking Yidi with Yidi, there is no loss of national use. Even if it loses, it will not harm the country's borders.

Han Qi arrived in the capital, but Wen Yanbo and Lu Gongbi still discussed abandoning Suizhou. And the two wondered, why did Han Qi suddenly change his mind after arriving in Chang'an? For Yang Ding, it's strange!

Han Qi said again, it's really not good, let's take Suizhou first and wait and see for a few months.

Wen Lu and the others found Zhao Ji and said, "Your Majesty, you are talking." ”

Zhao Ji watched them quarrel back and forth, and he himself was hidden in the shadows. The two asked him to speak, and he spoke, saying, "I sent Wang Zhaoming to Chang'an to ask Han Qi about the specific stakes. ”

Who is Wang Zhaoming?

It was an old eunuch who had been on the battlefield for a long time, and Dingchuan was defeated so badly, and he also kept his army alive. Not to mention his excellent performance in the battle of Dashun City initiated by Cai Ting and Wang Ju.

Zhao Ji came to the Jixian Hall in a hurry.

Wang Ju's biggest tragedy is that his official position is small. Although it is more convenient to meet in Jixian Hall, it is a one-way party. That is, it is very convenient for Zhao Ju to see Wang Ju, but Wang Ju has no ability to meet Zhao Ju.

Zhao Ji said: "As Qing expected. ”

If it weren't for Han Qi, Zhao Ji would not have been able to convince the minister by grinding his mouth.

It's Han Qi, and now he has to break his mouth.

But this also saw that Han Qi left Zhongshu and gradually lost power, so Wen Yanbo gradually lost face.

"Your Majesty, this is the art of the Emperor, your Majesty remember, no matter what proposition Your Majesty launches, the ministers will be in favor and against. Your Majesty can listen to it, but remember to express your stance less, but listen carefully, and you can't follow anyone's ideas, so it is easy to be swayed by the minister. This is the clear when you listen to both, and the dark when you listen partially. Then His Majesty himself reflects on the stakes, thinks that it is right, and adds guidance to make the shape go in a direction that is conducive to His Majesty's desire, so that he can do practical things with minimal disputes. ”

"Renzong's Imperial Technique?"

"Yes, but Emperor Renzong in his later years also made a mistake due to poor health, otherwise the national government would not be so difficult." If it was Zhao Zhen in the prime of life, it would be impossible for Han Qi to live in the two mansions for seven or eight years, and he would have been bombarded a long time ago.

"What Qing said is very true," Zhao Ji walked around.

This is the work of teaching, especially the act of reducing troops, Zhao Ji according to Wang Ju's plan, first did not mention the reduction of troops, but increased the number of troops, but everyone objected together, and then proposed the reduction of troops, so they unanimously agreed. Shun lĂŹ is like pushing a boat down the water.

It's not bad now, launch Han Qi, carried by Han Qi, and hide behind the scenes, but instead go to the shape, gradually benefit your own ideas, and leave Suizhou!

"Hey, Wang Ju, there's something wrong with your expression."

"The minister can't be in a hurry."

"Why?"

Wang Ju took out the letter sent by the Zhu family.

"So Lu Shu still can't save him?"

"Lu Shu is cowardly, he saw it as early as the war ministers of Dashun City, and it is better to expect him to save than to expect the sun to rise in the west."

"Why don't you report to ......me" Zhao Ji didn't say, in the past few days, what qualifications does Wang Ju have to report to himself in the Jixian Palace? So he immediately said: "I immediately sent a fast horse to give an order to Lu Xu. ”

"Your Majesty, it's too late, how long will it take to gather 5,000 soldiers and horses, and when Your Majesty's edict is issued, Wangjiazhai will be reduced to ashes as soon as possible." Wang Ju sighed.

Fortunately, I moved some of my children to Hangzhou in advance, otherwise the people of Wangjiazhai would all have no children and grandchildren.

"Harmony is precious...... Zhao Ji said sadly.

Lu Xu's expression finally made Zhao Xuan completely sober up.

"Your Majesty, remember, for now, peace is still precious, and the border army must not cause trouble. The defense of Suizhou City is stable, the defense forts are built, and the people's hearts are stable, at least until the spring of next year. At this time, it can really be said that Suizhou is what I have gained. ”

This is the general language, but Zhao Ji was not in the mood to stay any longer, so he immediately went back and issued an edict, ordering Lu Shu to send troops to rescue no matter what. What if the Tanguts have time to attack in the future?

Not long after the edict was issued, Lu Xu's fast feet were delivered to the capital and arrived in Xifu.

Wen Yanbo was furious when he saw the edict, and immediately said: "Order, let Lu Shu send heavy troops to annihilate these soldiers one by one." ”

But fortunately, there is also a Zaizhi in Xifu, not Lu Gongbi, but Han Jiang, he took Lu Xu's recital and glanced at it, and said: "This Zhao Zhong has made great contributions in the battle of Dashun City. ”

Wen Yanbo snorted: "Zihua, in the battle of Dashun City, Zhao Zhong was An Lushan before Tianbao, and now it is An Lushan in the last years of Tianbao. ”

"Gong Wen, even if he is now the Lushan of Tianbao. But how many Wangjiazhai does the security army have? It was Wang Ju's hometown, a Han village. And with the benefit of the Taoxi sword, how can he collude with a Fan to rebel? Besides, I've heard a little about this Zhao Zhong, and he seems to be a powerful general under Yeli Yuqi. When Yeli was killed by a beggar, he fled with his wife and children to take refuge in my Chaowangjiazhai. It was Wang Ju who repeatedly persuaded him to leave the mountain. Then he made great contributions in the battle of Dashun City, and it was the imperial court that gave him the position of assassin. And he and Wang Ju also recruited a large number of Yeli people and settled them on the border of Gyeongju. These wild tribes had nearly two thousand tents. If he wants to rebel, why didn't he rebel in Gyeongju and return to Wangjiazhai with a thousand soldiers to rebel? It doesn't make sense, besides, the Han people in Wangjiazhai are willing to leave the well and leave their hometown, rebel with him, and flee to Xixia to live a poor life? ”

"How can you not know, but Lu Shu has already assembled an army, even if the edict orders him to act cautiously, I am afraid that a large army will be sent out now."

"Duke Wen is not proper, even if the imperial court sits honestly, don't forget it, the 1,000 soldiers led by Zhao Zhong can come from all parts of Gyeongju, and Lu Shu will annihilate them, what kind of turmoil will be generated? It's going to make a big case. ”

This is Wen Yanbo's true intention, Guan Jian is too late to stop it now, so he has to cover up for Lu Xu and make this unjust case an iron case.

However, Han Jiang is more clear about this matter, even if he doesn't care about Wang Ju's feelings, he doesn't need to care about Wang Ju's feelings, but the question is whether this matter can be covered up?

"Why did Zhao Zhong lead the troops to Wangjiazhai?"

"I think there must be something hidden in this, Duke Wen, please act carefully. Xingzong, you immediately report to His Majesty. ”

Shao Kang didn't dare to delay, and immediately went to the palace to report.

After Zhao Ji heard the news, he also hurried to Xifu, picked up the music and looked at it, and was so angry that he threw the music to the ground at once, and said to Xiao Huangmen: "Go to Jixian Courtyard and summon Wang Ju." ”

After a while, Wang Ju was brought in, and Zhao Ji pointed to the music on the ground and said, "Wang Ju, look at it." ”

As if he felt that something was wrong, he instructed the eunuch next to him and said, "Pick it up." ”

"Come by yourself," Wang Ju bent down, picked it up and watched, after reading it, his face flickered with joy and sorrow, Lu Shu only slandered on the chapter, and did not say the truth about the Xixia people's violation of Wangjiazhai. Then Wangjiazhai should still be there, but I don't know when Li Sangou arrived and how many people died.

He arched his hand and said: "Xia Guan has seen Gong Wen, Lu Gong, Han Gong, and Shao Gong, if you want to know the truth, please see the letter sent to Xia Guan by the Zhu family in Yanzhou." ”

Sooner or later, this account will be settled, so the letter has always been in his arms.

"The four ministers, in fact, Zhu Yuan's foreign material is wrong. Lu Shu was greedy for life and afraid of death, so after receiving the notice from the Zhu family, he was not worried but happy, and took the opportunity to send the people of Wangjiazhai to the Xixia people to be angry. ”

Wen Yanbo said: "Wang Ju, it's too much to say. ”

"Duke Wen, the lower officials just want to ask, Yang Ding and several other important ministers and generals were killed by the Western Xia people, can Lu Xu say something?" After Wang Ju finished speaking, he swept a few planes on the side, went to Tuyu to find a map of Shaanxi, opened the map and said: "Although Wangjiazhai is on the front line, it is not at the front line. Why didn't the officers and soldiers save them? Gong Wen, you have also seen this letter, and you should have guessed the truth correctly. In desperation, Yanzhou couldn't move the rescuers, so the villagers of Wangjiazhai sent people to Zhao Zhong for help. Although Zhao Zhong is a native of Tibet, he has lived in Wangjiazhai for a long time, and this is also his homeland. So he led the Tibetan cavalry to Wangjiazhai and repelled the 5,000 Xia soldiers who came to attack. This made Lu Shu unhappy, so he came over and clashed with Zhao Zhong, and then slandered Zhao Zhong for rebellion, gathered a large army, and prepared to kill Zhongliang and help the enemy country. ”

"Lu Shu is a loyal minister appointed by the first emperor, how can he kill Zhongliang and help the enemy country?" Wen Yanbo said.

He didn't get along with Wang Ju, but wanted to keep Lu Xu. No matter what he says now, Lu Shu is estimated to have fought with a large army, and most of these thousand horsemen have been killed, is Lu Shu responsible? Wouldn't that just make the main battle faction happy?

Wang Ju obviously realized this, and said: "Duke Wen, don't think too much, even if Lu Shu gathers an army, Wangjiazhai has a tall wall defense, although Lu Shu has a lot of troops in his hands, but he doesn't dare to kill the enemy, but he comes to kill the heroes and good generals who defend the country, the morale of the three armies is not in order, and it is impossible to destroy Zhao Zhongbu." I also hope that Duke Wen will give an order immediately to avoid a tragedy. ”

Wen Yanbo hesitated slightly.

Wang Ju said heavily: "Your Majesty, the minister recommended Zhao Zhong as a general, but he has always said that he is not suitable to be the commander of Fan. The reason is very simple, he has a straightforward temperament, but he doesn't have as much thought as us scholars! The minister can guarantee that as long as Lu Shu lets him go back, he will definitely not go against the officers and soldiers, if Lu Shu thinks that Zhao Zhong is a native of the Song Dynasty, not a native of the Western Xia, he can be bullied, and the minister does not know how much will happen. Even the entire Yan Yan and Huanqing Road have had a heavy turmoil because of this annihilation! ”R1152
