Chapter 553

Zhao Xi couldn't agree on whether to speed up the transportation of the imperial army to the north.

This is the worst plan, just like the Liaoxia Allied Forces attacking Yanmen Pass with friends who will destroy the country, it is an almost impossible assumption.

Zhao Xi didn't think that Beiliao had the guts to put all his eggs in one basket. He felt that Beiliao was like a pig's urine bubble that was blown hard, and it might burst one day.

Beiliao has always been the boss of the three families, and has always played the role of mediator. The Great Song and Xixia still have to obey... The Great Song has the old coins, and the Western Xia also has the tribute.

Suddenly being fooled by the two little brothers... It feels very uncomfortable, but I have to face up to the status quo.

Therefore, after the war was irreversible, hundreds of thousands of soldiers were still stationed in Hebei in an attempt to save a little face.

When he knew that Song Dynasty had the possibility of a pincer attack, he had to withdraw his troops, but turned the withdrawal into a war.The purpose is still for face.

Zhao Xi is not in the mood to take care of Beiliao's face, even though he is quite understanding.It was precisely because he was able to guess exactly what Beiliao was thinking that he assumed the attitude of going to the end of the war.

In Zhao Xi's view, what Beiliao should and wants to do most now is to send troops to the southwest and teach Xixia a lesson... So much in the early stage, it can't be useless, right?

"The Western Xia border retreated a hundred miles, causing the transfer of the Western Army and the Western New Army to pass through Yanyan, and there were signs of the Lin Mansion going north!"

This... Fu Bi understands, understands that the officials have no doubts about the Forbidden Army's northward march, but they made a sign to withdraw the Western Army... This is the grand strategy.

They all understood, and the ministers all understood. At this moment, the council hall was very quiet, but the ministers were excited, and there was even a sense of stormy waves in their hearts.

For a long time, the civil servants of the Guo Dynasty have taken pride in teasing the Northern Liao and Xixia courts, but there has never been a big situation like this time among the officials.

At the beginning, Zhong Shiheng was just to alienate the Xixiaye Liganglang brothers, and it has been sung to this day. How does it compare with the current emperor?
Starting from the disturbance of the border by the Liaoxia coalition forces, one link after another, and the link is pushed away, everything is in the planning...

Whether such an evil king is really a good thing for civil servants, but for Da Song, it is definitely a great fortune!
Fu Bi lamented, thinking of the words he had talked with all the ministers, saying that it was to persuade them, it would be better to say that it was to make himself fully agree with the role of supporting and cooperating.

Winter has never been a season suitable for cavalry combat.Will Beiliao put all its eggs in one basket?Probably not.

When the Song Dynasty sent troops to deploy again, Beiliao sent envoys to Bianliang again.

Xiao Zhuoer had only left for more than a month, and the deployment of Da Song had just begun to show signs, and Beiliao couldn't bear it anymore.

Since the Tanyuan Alliance, when did the Great Song Dynasty feel as proud as it is today?

It has always been when Chen Bing of the Northern Liao Dynasty traveled northward, and the Song Dynasty sent envoys to the north, making compromises again and again, and constantly increasing the old coins for peace.

In the end, even Xixia has been defeated repeatedly!

"Your Majesty the Emperor of the Song Dynasty, since the Tanyuan Alliance, the Liao and Song Dynasties have always regarded brotherly states as friendly and good-neighborly neighbors. Now because of the Xixia thieves, the Liao and Song fraternal states are fighting each other, which is not what they want. Therefore, I, the Emperor of Daliao Your Majesty sincerely sends envoys to express our sincerity in the Daliao armistice negotiations."

"But now that the Liao and Song Dynasties are about to start negotiations, why does the Song army intend to fight again? Your Majesty, on behalf of the Daliao Emperor, I ask: Is the Song Kingdom ready for a full-scale war with our Daliao?"

It's not the Xiao Zhuoer from last time, it's a different person.Zhao Xi didn't remember the name specifically, but knew it belonged to Yelu's family.

Looking at His Majesty's impassioned Liao envoy, Zhao Xi really wanted to tell him: Since Beiliao started the war, I have the final say on when it will end!
It's just that, as a king, there's no need to argue with envoys... ~ drop in price.

Besides, this is in the court hall of the Song Dynasty, a group of courtiers lined up, and they were questioned like this. If no courtiers stepped up, would the courtiers want it?

"Bold!"

"This is the hall of the Great Song Dynasty. Is it a place where you and other small officials from the Northern Liao Dynasty make noise? Extremely rude!"

"The minister of the barbarians! Expelled..."

well!What a disappointment.Zhao Xi didn't expect that all his courtiers could only howl...

If a courtier shouts: It is time to prepare for war!What can you do with Beiliao?That's okay too.

But now?Just howl a few times boldly, reprimand a few words for being rude, who cares?First, he did not refute the questions raised by others, and second, he did not have the courage to survive.

Still haven't changed from the original role of being bullied.

"Beiliao envoy, I, Lu Huiqing, would like to know, is Beiliao ready for a full-scale war? Can you represent the emperor of Beiliao? Or can you represent the Prime Minister of Beiliao?"

"Emissary of the Liao Dynasty, I, Cai Que, also want to know: So what if I am ready to go to war in the Song Dynasty? What will happen if I am not ready to go to war? Not to mention you, even the Prime Minister of the Northern Liao Dynasty must not ignore the court etiquette of the Song Dynasty! How dare you do it for me? Are you responsible for what you said?"

On this occasion, even the ministers of the political affairs hall are not suitable for arguing, and they also represent the attitude of the court when they speak.

Whether it was Lu Huiqing or Cai Que, they did not disappoint Zhao Xi's expectations.Whether it's flattery or pleasing, at least it's not ashamed to stand up on this occasion.

Zhao Xi didn't ask his ministers and workers to be as upright as Sima Guang and Ouyang Xiu, and he didn't dare to expect them to be like Pang Ji and Fu Bi, matching their character and wisdom.

Even in terms of character, Lu Huiqing and Cai Que are not considered gentlemen, but their wisdom is indeed useful for the court.Then it should be used.

"I, Daliao, knew very well that the Battle of Hedong was deceived by Xixia, which led to the confrontation of soldiers, so I initiated the truce negotiation. Why did Song still send troops to the front of the border?"

"Emissary of the Liao Dynasty, please explain why the Northern Liao Dynasty still has [-] soldiers at the border of Hebei Province after it proposed negotiations? How can they use the name of withdrawing troops to move north to Weizhou?"

Cai Que seemed to feel the satisfaction of the officials, and argued with the Liao envoy about the contents of the internal reference and the excerpt form.

This is the advantage of presiding over internal referral reports. Cai really feels the benefits of this position...not being a judge, but having the same right to know as a judge.

Of course, he is not stupid, and he also knows that he cannot fully explain it.

"Your Majesty the Emperor of the Song Dynasty, I, Daliao, believe that this negotiation is very important. His Majesty the Emperor of the Daliao Dynasty wants to come to Xijing Road to sign an alliance with His Majesty the Emperor of the Song Dynasty in person! The so-called withdrawal of troops to the north is actually to bear the responsibility for the safety of the Daliao Emperor. The intention to start a war."

After finishing speaking, the envoy of Liao slowly took out his credentials, put his hands on his hands, and bowed his waist, looking very respectful...~ This hand is very good!Zhao Xi wanted to scream.

I still want to save some face... During the interview, first ask questions, wait for rebuttals, and when Da Song mentions the reasons for withdrawing troops and going north to Weizhou, then show the credentials... ~ Is it meaningful to play this?
It's nothing more than making Song Dynasty unprepared, and being able to put courtiers together in the Song Dynasty Hall, how can it be so good?Is it possible to change the fact that Beiliao has declined?

However, such a situation is indeed a bit embarrassing for the courtiers of the country.

The ministers of the Song Dynasty have always played tricks on the ministers of the Liao Xia Dynasty. When did they play tricks on them?

In fact, one problem is ignored: only when you are in a weak position, you need to use such tricks to satisfy your inner frustration.
