A great man of the Northern Song Dynasty

Chapter 1043 Zhao Xu asks for a tassel

The Liao people still did not solve their supply protection problem in this battle. They were attacked by the Xixia people on the grain roads many times. The army in front was insufficiently supplied and complained.

This is a deadlock.

The Liao people's grain stores are insufficient and may collapse at any time once supplies are cut off.

Yelu Hongji is very confused now. He wants to withdraw his troops and feels embarrassed.

I think back then Daliao was a very powerful army, so it launched an attack without giving the Xixia people a chance to explain.

There were so many great writers back then, but now there are so many Sabbis.

Moreover, the Song Dynasty was very unethical and continued to station a large army in the Yanmenguan area, aiming at Shuozhou.

If you, Yelu Hongji, lead your army to turn to Xixia, the Song Dynasty will stab you in the chrysanthemum.

So under the dilemma, Yelu Hongji thought of retreating.

The Xixia people were aware of the Liao people's movements. When they were excited, Ping Tou Ge's attributes immediately took effect. While the Liao army was still in the territory, their attitude towards the Song Dynasty changed.

"In the official family, it is obvious that Li Liang is trying to suppress his arrogant ambitions!"

Han Qi was very angry and wished he could send out his army immediately to attack Xixia with the Liao people.

But he knew he couldn't, otherwise once Xixia was destroyed, the Song Dynasty would face the unchecked Liao people.

Zhao Shu sneered and said: "They have always been like this, so... I am going to send someone to Xixia to have a look and at least give them a shock."

The emperor and his ministers all felt that Li Liangzuo was nothing, but Shen An knew that this young man was not bad. After his death, his wife, Empress Dowager Liang, came to power in Xixia, and she would be called a tough one.

"Guan Jia, give it to them."

Shen An felt that no deterrent would be more effective than sending out the army to fight.

"Send cavalry to attack them and leave after a battle. Li Liangzuo naturally knows what the Song Dynasty means, so he will not misjudge and will still deal with the Liao people with all his strength."

What kind of shock? Such a surprise attack is the real shock.

Zhao Shu looked at him, suddenly pointed his finger and said: "You young man..."

"I am no longer a teenager." Shen An felt that the word "teenager" was a bit inappropriate for him at present. Others would think that he was speechless and insecure in his work.

Zhao Shu covered his forehead and said: "Yes, you even have a child now, but I remember when you and Dalang were making trouble in the house... At that time... you two were lawless and blew up the house... …”

After an official becomes an emperor, such tenderness is rare.

Shen An said nervously: "At that time, I had no status."

At that time, he was much younger and less skillful in doing things. If there weren't so many people watching over him, he would have been dead long ago.

Zhao Yunrang, Bao Zheng...many people were watching him, and would reach out to help him remove the obstacles before he was about to suffer misfortune.

"What you just said reminded me of your lawlessness in the past." Zhao Shu gradually woke up and said: "But the Xixia people are a little complacent. In this case, the Song Dynasty should hammer and let Li Liangzuo know that the Song Dynasty can They are not Liao people. The supplies that the Liao people are afraid of are not a problem for the Song Dynasty..."

The population of the Song Dynasty is the existence that crushes the world today. Not only the Xixia people are afraid of this, but the Liao people are also a little numb.

A large population means more taxes, which means more people.

And when all this is reflected in the war, it is countless grains and soldiers.

Once the Song Dynasty was mobilized, there would be a sea of ​​​​people. As long as the emperor is not a fool, as long as the status of the warriors is improved and they practice more, who dares to despise this Song Dynasty?

After returning to the palace, Zhao Shu called people from the three yamen to discuss matters together, and Zhao Xu also came.

After he came in and saluted, he gave Shen An a wink.

Shen An shook his head slightly, feeling that this problem was none of his business.

The people from Sanya answered the border issue that Zhao Shu was concerned about, and expressed their stance very confidently, "The Xixia people are provoking, but they dare not cross the border. Please rest assured, the northwest, the northwest is as stable as Mount Tai."

Zhao Shu nodded with satisfaction. Only then did Zhao Xu know what had happened. He went out and said: "The officials and ministers thought that Li Liangzuo was getting carried away. If the Song Dynasty had ignored it, after the Liao army retreated, the Xixia people would They will definitely continue to harass the Song Dynasty’s borders..."

This is based on history. Zhao Xu first gave examples of the Xixia people's bad deeds in the past, and finally expressed his position: "The official family, I want to see..."

Shen An was a little confused, thinking that this guy was in a state of infatuation.

But you are the prince, when will it be your turn to attack the enemy?

Zhao Shu also felt that his son was a little anxious, "You are a prince. It is only right to live in the capital and watch the politics and study. When we attack Xixia, there are many good generals in the capital. Where is the time for you to go into battle?"

Zhao Xu said: "In the official family, Han Wu traveled around with his companions when he was young. Only then did Han Wu drive out the Xiongnu, laying the foundation for the subsequent creation of a prosperous age. Tang Taizong even personally led the army to kill the enemy, and he was invincible. This Only then did he get the name of the prosperous Tang Dynasty... As a prince, although I dare not compare with these two emperors when they were young, I dare to lead an army to raid Xixia. If it fails, I will ask myself to leave the palace."

There was a cold look in Zhao Shu's eyes, probably because he wanted to beat his son.

Even Shen An had this idea, and the ministers and ministers were whispering.

Wu of the Han Dynasty and Taizong of the Tang Dynasty were both great people. You are right to regard them as your idols. But what you said about asking yourself to leave the palace if it doesn't work out is too stupid.

If you ask yourself to leave the palace, you will abolish your position as a prince and become an idle royal son.

It would be fine if I said this privately in front of Shen An or Zhao Shu, but the prime ministers and assistants are here!

Look at Han Qi, he wishes he could find something to plug his ears.

Zeng Gongliang is pretending to be stupid, while Bao Zheng is calculating something with his fingers, like a Taoist...

These decisive words left Zhao Shu with no room to retreat. He said angrily: "Just go ahead."

These words sounded familiar to Shen An.

——Go ahead and don’t come back until you die!

How many naughty children were scolded like this by their parents in previous lives!

Rebellious teenagers always yearn for the outside world, but their parents feel that their wings are still young and they are not ready to fly alone, so the conflict between father and son breaks out.

Get away and don't come back.

This is probably what Zhao Shu meant.

Hearing that the prince was going to the northwest, Fu Bi immediately expressed his intention to send five thousand of the most elite cavalry to escort him.

"Your Majesty, there is a lot of good steel accumulated in Izumo Temple. Why don't we get some immediately and let the weapons workshops in the capital make weapons." Shen An glanced at Zhao Xu and said, "This raid will be just right. ."

Zhao Shu looked at him, nodded slightly, arranged the day for the attack, and then dispersed.

After leaving the palace, Shen An and Zhao Xu walked side by side.

"Why are you so tough? Even the top officials can't turn around."

Zhao Xu also had some regrets, "I have eaten too much mutton recently. I feel hot and have a bad temper."

Does eating mutton make you feel hot?

"You...could it be that you have too much sex with women?" Shen An felt that this seemed to be a problem with his waist.

"Nothing." Zhao Xu denied it flatly, and then changed the subject, "How much can that good sword be made?"

"There are quite a few." Shen An smiled and said: "She Qing's idea was that the Privy Council would be happy when they saw this good sword, so they would get more good steel and ask for more money and food when the time comes."

But they didn't expect that Zhao Shu would go there in person, so they got the benefit of not having to use this arrangement.

"Make more and bring them to try."

Zhao Xu said excitedly: "If a Xixia person encounters such a good knife, will the knife and the person be chopped in pieces? I can't wait to go to the northwest to try it now."

This boy seems to have reached a rebellious stage.

A rebellious teenager refuses to obey authority. The more he is asked to do something by others, the more he will do it.

Zhao Shu also had a headache for his son.

"Da Lang's temper has not been very good recently." After Gao Taotao learned about this, he advised with concern: "You don't listen to your parents, and your temper has become more and more stubborn... But as an official, you were about the same back then!"

"Really?" Zhao Shu said with some embarrassment: "I wasn't like this back then, right?"

"Yes." Gao Taotao and he have been married for many years, so naturally they don't have so many taboos, so he covered his mouth and said with a smile: "When my uncle scolded you, you would talk back..."

this……

Zhao Shu said with some tangle: "This matter... that's all. Now the main force of Xixia is fighting with the Liao army. The northwest side is just for defense. There is no danger if Dalang goes there... But... we still need to make some arrangements." …”

Parents are like this. They say you go and don't come back, but in fact they are secretly worried and make various arrangements.

Later, both Zhe Kexing and Wang Que received orders.

"The officials ordered you to escort the king to the northwest."

Zhe Kexing accepted the order, and immediately made arrangements in the army to find Shen An.

"It's nothing big, just a surprise attack and telling Li Liang to say goodbye, that's all."

This kind of warning attack requires a short and sharp attack, and Zhe Kexing can't do it better.

But the king...

"This is a raid..."

Zhao Shu had a headache looking at the two-meter-tall Wang Ke. UU Reading www. uukanshu.net

Such a tall and burly warrior is very powerful. With him around, Zhao Xu's safety is not a problem.

But what kind of horse is needed to carry him and keep up with the team?

Wang Que was also a little confused about this issue.

"How about... someone come and release all the good horses in the palace and let Wang Que try them."

The king was moved in an instant, and he knelt on the ground and cried: "Your Majesty is so kind, but it is difficult for me to repay you with my body."

The horses in the palace are naturally BMWs. Unfortunately, there is no future with Zhao Shu. After finally choosing two good horses for Wang Que, Zhao Shu simply divided the rest and kept a few good horses for himself. use.

Then the good swords were delivered, and more than a thousand cavalrymen changed their uniforms and tested them, which immediately caused a sensation.

"What a knife!"

"With such a good sword, if we go to deal with the Xixia people this time, we will definitely be successful."

A few days later, Zhao Xu set out with five thousand cavalry, escorted by Zhe Kexing and Wang Que.

The Liao army was still fighting with the Xixia people, but they were gradually retreating.

Li Liangzuo stood in front of the formation, looked at the retreating Liao troops, and said: "The Liao people are unruly, and our army has the right to defeat the unjust. We will win! Attack!"

He had been studying a lot recently, so he dropped his book bag and said something about the moral and the unmoral, but most of his subordinates were illiterate and looked confused.

Li Liangzuo sighed: "That...Liao people are shameless. Now they are running for their lives. Send orders to everyone to kill them!"

"Kill!"

The whole Xixia army was dispatched, and the Liao people fought and retreated without any disorder.

When Li Liangzuo saw this scene, he said: "The Liao army is still the same Liao army, and it is really powerful. The Song people... The Song people defeated Yelu Hongji with the help of a fortified city last time, which is not enough. Now our army has experienced After training with the Liao army, we have made rapid progress. Next time I have a chance, I will go to the northwest of the Song Dynasty to see... to... take revenge and avenge our shame!"
