I am Da Song

Chapter 314 We love peace but never fear war!
It has been nearly three years since the country of the Song Dynasty was at peace, and it is not easy in this chaotic world.

As the descendants of Zhuxia, there is no one who does not love peace.

The environment of clear rivers, clean seas and no incidents in all directions is destined to make the hardworking Central Plains more prosperous and wealth will accumulate rapidly.

But there is a saying in later generations that can be called insight.

In this world, people will not stop beating you just because you love peace.

So facing the queen's worried and concerned expression, Zhao Huan said calmly: "Although we long for peace, we are never afraid of war. With the prosperity of our martial arts in the Great Song Dynasty, righteousness and martial arts, those who jump on the beam will be killed even if they are strong! Please come here, Prime Minister."

Zhu Lian turned her head, only to feel that the husband sitting at the table was like a peerless sharp sword at this moment, rushing into a bullfight.

In front of this strong and firm self-confidence, all her worries and sympathies disappeared in an instant.

Because even if she is a woman who doesn't understand military affairs, she is sincerely convinced at this moment that under the firm leadership of her husband, Da Song will definitely be able to work together and fight with all her strength!
No nation can win the Great Song Dynasty in this mental state.

I am the country!So remarkably manifest in this moment.

Although we yearn for peace, we never fear war!
Soon the Prime Minister Zhang Shuye strode into the Chui Gong Hall.

The privy envoy of the Song Dynasty is 65 years old this year, and he can definitely be regarded as a prime minister at the prime minister level.

For any politician, at all times and in all over the world, the age of 60 is the age at which he has just begun to flex his muscles.

The reason why Zhang Shuye has been worshiping the prime minister for many years at the age of 65 is entirely due to two things.

One is that nine years ago, he led the army to quell the Songjiang uprising, and the other was in the second year of Jingkang, when the country was in crisis, he led the army into Tokyo alone to save the country.He was promoted four times in three days, and was finally promoted by Zhao Huan himself as a privy envoy with unprecedented authority that night.

He used the Privy Envoy to pay homage to the Prime Minister, instead of signing to the Privy Council, and adjutants such as Tongzhi Privy Council presided over the Privy Council, so he successfully re-established authority in the Privy Council and sorted out the efficient operation of military affairs.

The power, efficiency, and professionalism of the Privy Council at this time were not weaker than those of the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies at the peak of the Ming Dynasty.

Because professional generals are in charge of this organization, the Privy Council has demonstrated a very professional level in terms of military training, combat command, loyalty building, and border housing.

After Zhang Shuye saluted, he immediately reported vigorously and vigorously: "The officials and the Privy Council sorted out the military situation on the frontier and judged the situation. It is very likely that the Jin army will launch a war in the autumn."

Zhao Huan ate his dinner unhurriedly, and looked at Zhang Shuye: "The Jurchens have to rely on military victories with fewer victories in order to stabilize their rule. Since Jingkang, the Jin army has experienced several disastrous defeats in our dynasty. In such a situation, how could the Jin army continue to launch an offensive?"

Zhang Shuye said solemnly: "Although the Kingdom of Jin was defeated, the great foundation of the Jurchens in the north is still there, and the tradition of the Jurchens to strengthen the army is still there. Therefore, the Jurchens have been collecting supplies and troops from Yunnei Prefecture since March this year. .There was clearly a conspiracy."

Yunnei State is not Yun State, these two places are far apart.

Yunzhou is Datong, which is within the Great Wall of Ming Dynasty.But Yunnei Prefecture is outside the Great Wall. The Ming army once conquered this place, but later it became difficult to rule and gave up guarding it.

The Great Song Dynasty has not built the Great Wall since it recovered Yanyun.

The Privy Council believes that with the current martial arts virtues of the Great Song Dynasty, if there are hundreds of thousands of people fighting in formation, they will definitely win a big victory.

But the fact that the array does not fight has once again become the consensus of the Hu people.

If the Song army can win the frontal battle, the barbarian iron cavalry will not bump into it recklessly, and will inevitably choose to break it up into pieces and plunder in all directions.

With the prosperity of the Song Dynasty, as long as you can enter the world of flowers and flowers in the Song Dynasty, you will definitely be able to return with a full reward.

Therefore, the Privy Council pays special attention to the movement of Jin Guo cavalry.

Zhao Huan asked: "Qing thinks that Jin will rely on foreign wars and military plunder to divert internal conflicts?"

"This is not a wild speculation by the ministers, but a choice that the Kingdom of Jin will inevitably make. There are many conflicts and resentment within the Kingdom of Jin. The Jurchens have been defeated many times, which has greatly reduced their prestige. Vigorous power."

"If the Jurchens don't want to establish authority in the civil war, they can only expand outward and re-establish military prestige. By plundering a lot of wealth, they can buy domestic hearts."

It's like some socialist countries in World War II.The rule must be consolidated through means of expansion and looting of materials.

Zhao Huan glanced at the map hanging on the wall, and frowned: "But why did the Jin army station troops in Yunnei Prefecture?"

Zhang Shuye's attitude is very cautious: "The Privy Council believes that there are nine out of ten chances that the Jin army will attack the Western Xia Heishan Weifu Army Division, and then go down the Yellow River to reach Zhongxing Mansion. There is only a [-]% to [-]% probability of attacking Yunzhou and Shuozhou. .”

After listening, Zhao Huan only felt that he was suddenly enlightened, and he had the feeling of seeing the moon through the clouds and mists in an instant.

I am too preoccupied, and it is also Zhu Xia's long-standing tradition.It seems that there are only two countries in this world, one is the Central Plains and the other is a foreign country.

But for other countries, they and Song Dynasty have never been the only ones in this world.

There are too many targets that the Jin army can attack.You don't have to choose Da Song to plunder.

After all, today's Song Dynasty is a bit too strong. If you rob it, you may not get anything. Instead, you will be blocked by 10,000+ heavily armed men with spears and axes, strong bows and arrows in the corner. broken.

The Central Plains people don't regard the Hulu as human beings, but the Hulu people still cherish their lives very much.

If [-] to [-] clan lineages were cut into pieces in the Central Plains, no matter how much wealth was plundered, it would be meaningless.

Because without the power to guard wealth, it is just gathering wealth for others.All the livestock, wealth, and women of one's own tribe will become the spoils of other tribes.

Those surrounding tribes would rush over with grinning grins, beheading all the male men in the tribe who were bigger than the horse's belly.Then, while flogging and playing with the tribal women, they enjoy the wealth that the tribe has plundered through untold hardships.

Therefore, the so-called [-]-[-]% probability of the Privy Council is completely a backing for the bureaucracy's style of seeking stability.

As long as this world is still ruled by man, no one can guarantee that the opponent will not suddenly go crazy and make some incredible crazy moves.

The probability of this kind of thing happening is extremely low, and it is more likely that the Jin army will attack Xixia and plunder the wealth.

Thinking of Jin Guo going to war with Xixia, Zhao Huan raised his eyebrows happily. No matter who wins or loses between these two families, it is a good thing for Song Dynasty.It would be even better if both sides could be hurt.Da Song can lie down and reap the benefits of being a fisherman.

But the joy only lasted for a short period of time, and he frowned, remembering a crucial thing.

"I remember that Xixia is my vassal!"
