It's quiet, it's really quiet.

And Zhang Ji knew that Wang Ju might have difficulties, and deliberately commented on everyone's merits in the good news, Wang Ju put it first, followed by Cai Ting, and then Lin Guang, Zhao Ming, Li Sangou and others. Of course, this was also tacitly approved by Cai Ting. Anyway, his reward has also come down, and he has also taken the lead in the battle of Dashun City, so he has to be saved.

It was the merit of killing an enemy emperor, although this credit was a little reluctant, but it was indeed because of Wang Ju's timely dispatch in personally killing the enemy army that caused the enemy army to be defeated, and Li Liangzuo was killed.

Impeaching Wang Ju again is boring for himself.

In fact, Wang Juzhen doesn't matter, it doesn't matter if the merit is better, there are still dozens of days, and all of this is not important.

I couldn't hide it, the firecrackers in the capital were like rain, and when the news spread, it began to ring non-stop.

This is the general trend, a great credit, even Han Qi was stunned, besides, these gossiping little courtiers.

There was one person who had been watching, and that was Gao Taotao, and her husband said a word with difficulty: "Use!" ”

Gao Taotao also knows that he needs to use it, what the country lacks now is not Wenchen, but Wenchen who can really fight, the border is unstable, how can the country be stable?

However, Gao Tao is really a bit difficult to say about this, so he watched in secret and did not express his position, and this shape is also very delicate, so she had better hide behind the scenes. When the good news arrived, Gao Tao thought for a while, looked at the several eunuchs with happy faces, and said, "Send someone to bring that Wang Ju to the palace." ”

Even the eunuchs are happy to be like this, not to mention the billions of trillions of the people of the Song Dynasty.

Wang Ju was taken to the harem.

Gao Tao asked behind the curtain: "I heard that Sima Qing impeached you for selling prisoners of war, but is there such a thing?" ”

"Queen. Yes, there is such a thing. ”

"Huh." Gao Tao almost fell to the ground in shock. Why did this kid take the initiative to admit it? Not only her, but even Zhao Ji, who was sitting on the side and listening, was also stunned. But she was cautious and asked, "Tell me why." ”

"Empress Qiyu, there are several reasons for the ministers to do this, the first is different from Xue Rengui's killing of prisoners of war, they just went to be mine slaves, and those mine owners get free labor and will not be treated harshly. You can send someone down to find out. The second is not an example of Chenkai, the Tangut people abducted a large number of people on the border of our DPRK, not only the Tibetans, but also the Han people, which can also be checked, and because of the defeat of the war over the years, a large number of prisoners of war have also been obtained from our dynasty, but in addition to the release of a few generals, such as Liu Ping, the rest of the people were released? Western Xia was the first to move. I echo the after. Cast it with a peach, repay it with a plum. It is also in line with what the master said about repaying virtue with virtue and repaying grievances with straightforwardness. The minister did nothing wrong. ”

This seems to be a reason, Gao Tao began to be confused behind the curtain.

"Third, these prisoners of war were released to discourage our troops, but they increased the prestige of the enemy, and when they were released, they were all soldiers, so it was not a wise thing to release. But don't let go, the Tangut people hurt, one pain, two pain, three pain, and finally the pain is deep, whether it is war or peace, it is up to our dynasty to decide. Fourth, the issue of state finances; if we follow the previous major wars, our DPRK's expenditure may be calculated in units of 10 million guan, ranging from 20 million to 30 million or 40 million guan or 40 million to 40 or 50 million guan. But knowing that the war was imminent, Han Qi was also an important minister on the front line, but under the repeated begging of Duke Cai, the imperial court only allocated less than 2 million yuan of money, which shows the embarrassment of the imperial court's finances. Then after this war, the imperial court will not have many financial pensions and rewards, but once it is victorious, it will greatly increase the morale of our generals and the national prestige of the Great Song Dynasty. ”

"Didn't the imperial court allocate a lot of money to Gyeongju?"

"Yes, these money are not only used for pensions and rewards, but also for the cost of food, armor, medicine, people's losses, and other expenses, and there are not many that really fall on the pensions and rewards. Moreover, if you don't let go, these prisoners of war will inevitably consume a lot of food at the front, so the minister came up with this idea, but it has nothing to do with Cai Gong, it is all the minister's doing. ”

"Why are you telling the truth now? Don't you say these words honestly? ”

"Queen, the minister first said that Sima Gong is a person, he is an important minister, and the minister also knows, but the five fingers have their own strengths and weaknesses, some ministers understand military affairs, some understand the economy, some understand water conservancy, people's livelihood, agriculture, transportation, Sima Gong may have done a good job in internal affairs, but he still does not understand military affairs. He thought that peace could be bought with money, not to mention far away, the minister said that the Southern Tang Dynasty, did Li Yu pay less tribute to our dynasty every year? Money, grain, and grass, and even copper produced in his own country, but in order to buy Emperor Taizu, the copper money has not been enough, so that his people use iron money, did Taizu use money to buy peace because of this, and not mix with Jiangnan? ”

"Wang Qing's also."

"Your Highness, don't dare, but Your Highness must also remember that as a country, you can't be quiet and weak. Just like a good old man, if there are good neighbors around, the good old man will be popular, if there are evil neighbors around, then he can only be bullied, and even forced to die by the bad guys. The country is also like this, I think of the people, and peace is precious, this purpose is good, but the surrounding neighbors are not clear except for Dali, which one is a good neighbor, that is, Dali and Guangnan West Road, the barbarians in the south of Bashu are not clear. But don't do it blindly. ”

"Tell me when not to act blindly?" Gao gushed.

"Queen, the minister still uses the Western Xia as a metaphor, first use this battle as a metaphor. Before the war, the minister and Cai Gong, as well as Zhang Qi, Zhang Yu, Zhao Ming, Yao Ji and other ministers repeatedly discussed and planned, the enemy is menacing, definitely not for Dashun City, but for Gyeongju, why, Gyeongju is surrounded by mountains, there is Meridian Mountain in the east, and Maling Mountain in the south, as long as it is taken, it can be regarded as the second Hengshan, Xixia is settled, and once it is taken, it will be isolated from the Yanyan Road and Jingyuan Road, and sooner or later Yanzhou and the security army and the Zhenrong army will be isolated from each other, and will be lost one after another, and it can also threaten the Guanzhong of my Great Song Dynasty. But if you want to capture Gyeongju, you must first take Dashun City. However, Dashun City is easy to defend and difficult to attack, so they will divide their troops in Liyuan Fort and Rouyuan Village. ”

"I've seen this too."

The minister said briefly, so when the enemy arrived in Dashun City, Cai Gong sent General Zhang Yu to lead 5,000 elite troops into Rouyuan Village. The enemy is strong. When the enemy is weak, he counterattacks. The main battlefield was first placed in Huachi County. Although Huachi County does not have many troops, under the training of the ministers, it can be said that it is an elite general. The first battle of Huachi County was a turning point in the war. Later, the minister was lucky to defeat more than 20,000 enemies, and the queen of that battle should also know that the minister used a water attack strategy, so that the weak defeated the strong and defeated the enemy. Therefore, Gonggong Huang took His Royal Highness's letter to Huachi County, and the minister said a word. This mountain and this water can be an army of 50,000,000. In the art of war, it is the right time, place and people. This is in our realm, and the minister is familiar with it, but in the enemy realm, the advantage of this terrain can be used by the enemy. ”

"Makes sense, move on."

"Besides, when Zhenzong, the imperial court crusaded against Li Jiqian, and the reason for the failure was that Bai Shourong escorted the baggage to Lingzhou, and Li Jiqian set up the Fupu Luo River and defeated our army. In the end, the lonely city of Lingzhou had no help and no food, and the officers and soldiers of the three armies were all wiped out. Even the famous minister Fiji did not serve in this battle. The same is true of Liaoxing Zong's war in Xia, fighting in the Yellow Sand Desert of Nanhetao, how is it the opponent of the Western Xia people. The area of Western Xia is not large, and the population is not large, but the terrain is complex, and it is mostly the land of the bitter alkali Gobi, so it is easier to choose this geographical advantage. If you attack rashly, there will inevitably be another heavy blow. Therefore, the minister said that the shallow attack, first Xu Tu Hengshan Huluchuan, will take Douling Quwu Mountain and Hengshan, the enemy will no longer have a natural danger to defend, not a few years, Xixia can be consumed alive by our army. But even if it is a shallow attack, the finances of the imperial court must be good, the officers and soldiers of the three armies must be brave, and there must be effective generals, not Ge Huaimin and others, otherwise they will still fail. ”

"Wang Ju, you said it very well," Gao Taotao was finally a little moved, this is not radical, but a kind of calmness.

"Don't dare, queen, the minister said one thing when the Three Kingdoms again, Cao Cao went down to the south of the Yangtze River, Zhang Zhao persuaded Sun Quan to surrender, Sun Quan hesitated, and suddenly remembered his brother Sun Ce's instructions before he died, and asked Zhang Zhao if he was undecided about internal affairs, and asked Zhou Yu if he was undecided about foreign affairs, so he called Zhou Yu over, Zhou Yu said, lord, don't listen to Zhang Zhao's words, the lord has surrendered, and there may not be a good end, but Zhang Zhao has surrendered, and he is still a minister in the north, and even has merit, and he can become an important minister under Cao Cao. That's why the Battle of Chibi came about. ”

"Did Sun Ce say that?"

"It's about to be said...... Wang Ju said that he was happy, and he actually took the Romance of the Three Kingdoms as a real Three Kingdoms arrangement.

About Zhao Ji had seen the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, and was familiar with it, and he also knew that Wang Ju was arranging it, so he suddenly laughed on the side. But this sentence is really interesting, Wang Ju said again: "Queen, whether you have said it or not, you have to ask someone who understands what the minister means." It's like doing a carpentry job, asking the minister, where does the minister understand? So you have to ask the carpenter. Ask military affairs, does military affairs Sima Gong understand, if he understands, he will not be disgraced when he is in Fengzhou. However, Sima Gong was unconscious, but he had to take care of everything, he had to force his words, reverse black and white, and the minister had to repay his grievances directly, and wanted to repay Li with peach and prevaricate him. However, the official family is the co-lord of the world, the queen is the mother of the world, and His Royal Highness is the prince of the world. If the minister has this mind, then it is called the heart of the unsubordinate, and the queen will report to the official, whether the minister has the ability or not, it cannot be used. ”

"Well said, well said." Zhao Ji praised on the side.

"Wang Ju, I heard that Li Liangzuo died?"

"He was wounded in many places by our soldiers, and it is normal for him to die from his injuries. But since the queen mentioned this matter, the minister also said it. At the time of Renzong, the military affairs of our dynasty were the most depressed, and the death of Li Liangzuo could somewhat sweep away this decadent atmosphere and boost the morale of the soldiers. But I can't think that Western Xia is in danger, Western Xia has become a climate since Li Yuanhao established the country, and that Liang family doesn't seem to be simple, maybe it's a character like Xiao Yanyan. ”

"I have also heard about your discussion in the Chinese book, and there are some truths."

"But there is no need to be afraid, Xiao Yanyan is luck, she happens to have two tiger generals in her hands, Yelu Xiuge and Yelu Xian, if not, she is just a Wu Zetian."

"Wu Zetian is not simple."

"Wu Zetian is not simple, but she is good at the art of power and internal affairs, but she is not good at military affairs, and she does not cherish the generals, and even beheaded a few tiger generals, if the exile of Wang Fangyi is still because of the queen Wang, can no longer be used, Cheng Wuting and Hei Tooth Changzhi are too wronged, although Cheng Wuting has a close relationship with Pei Yan, but when Wu Zetian beheaded Pei Yan, Cheng Wuting has already expressed loyalty, Li Shimin dares to use Wei Zheng, why can't Wu Zetian use Cheng Wuting? Even if Cheng Wu is not usable, why is he forced to die of black teeth? So much so that Tang Xiujing and Chen Daci later killed thousands of Tubo soldiers, which can be called a great victory, not as good as the minister's small battle in Dongjian Valley. However, a defeat is a defeat of tens of thousands. ”

Wang Ju's evaluation is very pertinent, some people take the military exploits of Ping Gaoli, Su Dingfang and other military exploits to force Wu Zetian, that is Li Zhi alive, is it okay to control the overall situation?

Zhao Xuan was amused.

Therefore, even if the Liang family is a character like Xiao Yanyan, she is not terrible, she has a Han identity that can be used. In the opinion of the ministers, the imperial court must first repair the internal affairs and solve the financial problems, and as for the Western Xia, it can be eased a little. When the finances are turned around, we can plan slowly, but we must no longer expect peace to be precious. ”

"You said it very well, it seems that if the country has military affairs in the future, you can ask the secretary." Gao Tao said.

She didn't ask how to solve the finances, of course, Wang Ju also couldn't say, who to say, it was to Zhao Ji, so would Gao Tao have an idea, my husband is not dead, you will show it to my son. In addition, his resume and age also make him unable to say, it is too bewitching. Anyway, it's not in a hurry, so I can't say it.

But after hearing this, Wang Ju was very nervous, and hurriedly said: "If you have military affairs, you should ask Han Gong, he has been in the northwest for a long time." In addition, the minister also asked the queen not to designate the minister as a military minister, the minister is a scholar, not a military general, nor a military minister. ”

This one is really critical, if you don't distinguish it clearly, then you will be very sad. (To be continued......) R861
