Chapter 304 The Strategy to Exterminate the Summer——Cold War

"We naturally believe in Lord Supervisor! It's just that Lord Supervisor can plead with the officials for me! We are all rough, how can we learn how to study, can we not study martial arts?" Captain Liu surnamed with a sad face road.

"That's right, it's fine for me to fight the enemy with a knife, but reading and writing with a pen is more embarrassing than asking us to embroider!"

All the captains also looked forward to it.

When they came to Beijing, they thought they were here to receive a reward, but how did they know that they would also enter martial arts to learn the art of war, which made a group of big bosses who only know how to fight complain endlessly.

Not only the school lieutenants, but even Zhong Pu complained constantly. Although he came from a family of soldiers, he mainly practiced martial arts on weekdays, and most of his reading was just literacy. This time he came to Kaifeng City, ready to enjoy Kaifeng The prosperity and wealth of the city, how can I bear the anguish of reading.

"Entering martial arts and learning the art of war is for your future. We are colleagues. In the battle of Pingxia City, you also witnessed the power of thunder. From now on, the era of personal bravery , has ended." Fan Zheng said solemnly.

Zhong Pu and others suddenly fell into silence. They had personally defeated Xixia with Thunder Thunder on the streets of Pingxia City, so they naturally knew the power of Thunder Thunder.

Even Xixia Tie Yaozi, who usually caused the Song army the most headache, was vulnerable when facing the thunder, and could only drink his hatred on the spot. Several thunders exploded, and no one was spared within ten steps.

"Secondly, General Di Qingdi was good at reading the Spring and Autumn Period back then, and only then did he achieve the achievements of a generation of famous generals. The generals complained that the Song Dynasty used literature to control the military and looked down on the generals. Fan Zheng asked back.

Zhong Pu looked solemn and nodded slowly.

Seeing the disapproval of the school lieutenants, Fan Zheng said in a calm and unhurried manner: "In the future, for promotion in the army, besides military merit, martial arts is also the most important thing. Those who have not entered martial arts or failed to meet the standards of martial arts will not be promoted! You and I had a life-and-death friendship in Pingxia City, don’t blame me for not reminding you.”

All the school lieutenants felt a chill in their hearts, and immediately promised: "Thank you, Master Supervisor, for reminding me."

This matter is related to their own future, and they immediately have no resistance to entering martial arts.

In the arched hall,

"Those arrogant soldiers are willing to learn the art of war?" Zhao Xu couldn't help being surprised when he got Fan Zheng's report.

Fan Zheng cupped his hands and said: "It is not a dull person who can become a captain, and it is not for you to wait for the champion."

Zhao Xu nodded slightly. Military generals are willing to enter martial arts to learn the art of war. Not only can they cultivate the talents of generals, but also cultivate their loyalty and patriotism. This not only ensures their loyalty, but also reduces the confrontation between civil and military forces.

"To inform the officials, [-] troops should have arrived at the Hehuang area and Qingtang has been pacified. It is time to implement the second step of the great detour strategy." Fan Zheng said solemnly.

"Destroy Xixia!"

Zhao Xu's breath stopped suddenly. The first step of Fan Zheng's big detour strategy has been successful, which is enough to prove its feasibility. The second step of the big detour strategy is to destroy Xixia. If he can successfully destroy Xixia, then he will complete the history The first emperor did not complete the great cause.

"Decree and ministers come to discuss matters." After a long time, Zhao Xu restrained the excitement in his heart and said in a deep voice.

Although Zhao Xu is talented and general, he is very clear that he and Fan Zheng alone will not help if he wants to implement a big detour strategy. He must have the support of important officials in the court. "The ministers are waiting to see the officials!"

Soon, important officials from the court came one after another, and when they learned that the second step of the big roundabout strategy was going to be implemented, they all frowned.

"Officials should not rush for success. The Song Dynasty has just occupied the Qingtang. The Qingtang has not yet settled down, and the shortage of war horses has not been resolved. How can we act rashly." Sure enough, the conservative Lu Dafang was the first to stand up and object.

Fan Zheng stood up and argued: "Lord Lu misunderstood, destroying Xixia is indeed not something to be eager for success, but if you don't plan for a while, it is not enough for a lifetime. Xixia was split from the Song Dynasty, and it has been the territory of the Song Dynasty since ancient times. All dynasties have the responsibility to recover Xixia."

Zhao Xu nodded slightly and said, "Lv Xianggong always bears the burden, and Fan Taicheng is determined to forge ahead, both have their merits. At present, it is true that Song Dynasty is not suitable for fighting Xixia, but he has to be on guard against Xixia."

All the important ministers nodded. Xixia's ambition caused heavy losses to the Song Dynasty. If there was a chance to destroy Xixia, the Song Dynasty would never let go of this opportunity.

Lu Dafang couldn't help sighing, Zhao Xu seemed to agree with him and Fan Zheng, but everyone knew that Zhao Xu was partial to Fan Zheng.

Fan Zheng looked around at the ministers and said solemnly: "The current situation in Songxia is beneficial to Song Dynasty. Dasong occupies Qingtang and establishes Shanzhou and Huangzhou. It can directly threaten the hinterland of Xixia from the Qilian Mountain gap, which is enough for Xixia to divide troops to defend the hinterland and reduce The pressure in the Hengshan area."

The Qilian Mountains are the barrier to the south of Xixia, but not all of them are high mountains. There are still some gaps between the mountains. Although the terrain is dangerous, it is not impossible to march.

All the ministers nodded slightly, the Great Song occupied the Qingtang, and won the two battles of Pingxia City, it already had an advantage in the strategy against Xixia, and the lengthening of the battle line was enough for Xixia to stick to its head and ignore its tail.

Zhang Dun frowned and said: "Naturally Xixia needs to recover, but Xixia is different from Qingtang, it is closer to Liao Kingdom, and Song, Liao and Xia signed a peace treaty. If Song Dynasty attacked Xixia, wouldn't they take the initiative to tear up the peace treaty, implement the facts, or even Attracted the Liao Kingdom to intervene by force."

All the officials frowned. If the Liao Kingdom hadn't been on the sidelines, it would have been extremely difficult for the Song Dynasty to destroy Xixia.

Fan Zheng nodded and said: "What Zhang Xianggong said is very true, but if my Song Dynasty does not send troops to attack, it may not be impossible to defeat Xixia."

"How can we defeat Xixia without sending troops?" A group of ministers looked at Fan Zheng with foolish eyes.

Fan Zheng said proudly: "Sending out all the troops to attack the city and defeat the enemy country sounds exciting. Fan calls this kind of war a hot war. However, in addition to a hot war, there is another kind of war called a cold war!"

"Cold War! What is Cold War?" Zhao Xu asked in surprise.

Fan Zheng replied: "The cold war means that the two sides contain each other without using force. For example, although our army does not send troops to Xixia, it cuts off all contacts and closes the field of discussion. Not only that, the Song Dynasty can also force the tribes of the Western Regions to fight against each other. Do not communicate with Xixia, so that Xixia has been suppressed and weakened day by day."

"This is a great strategy! It can weaken Xixia without violating the peace treaty of the Three Kingdoms." Su Song praised each other.

Lu Dafang also nodded slightly. In this way, the Song Dynasty did not send troops, and even the Liao Kingdom had nothing to say.

Suddenly, Zhao Xu felt enlightened. For a long time, he had been fighting against Xixia, and now he finally had the dominant idea to defeat Xixia.

"cold war!"
