The first-class concubine of the Song Dynasty

Chapter 315 Support
The Liao Kingdom and the Northern Han Dynasty went to war.

King Wu Zhao Dezhao came to look for Liu Wei. He thought it was an opportunity for them in Song Dynasty. For example, he sent a letter to Emperor Liu Jiyuan of the Northern Han Dynasty. As long as they were willing to help destroy Chen Chen, they would help them resist the Liao people and so on. .

After Zhao Dezhao expressed his opinion, Liu Wei just smiled and shook his head.

"Northern Han does need our help, but not now. We need to destroy Chen Chen, but we don't need Northern Han's assistance."

Zhao Dezhao couldn't understand Liu Wei's words. How much would it cost them to kill Chen Chen by themselves?
It is obvious that the strength of the Northern Han Dynasty can be used, why not?
Zhao Dezhao looked at Liu Wei, frowning, he hated Liu Wei's attitude when talking to him, he felt that Liu Wei never treated him like a prince.

What's more, he is still the supervisor of the army. If he writes a memorial to the court to say bad things about Liu Wei, he believes that the court will immediately remove Liu Wei as the marshal.

But when he saw Liu Wei's calm and breezy expression, he suddenly felt less confident in his thoughts. Liu Wei has always been right, and he feels like he is invincible.

After hesitating for a while, Zhao Dezhao finally chose to wait quietly, as long as Liu Wei made a mistake, he would have a way to destroy Liu Wei.

Liu Wei didn't know what Zhao Dezhao was thinking. He didn't know that this person who spoke peacefully to him actually hated him to the core. He only thought that Zhao Dezhao was too superficial. It gives people a sense of ambition and talent.

If he sent a letter to Emperor Liu Jiyuan of the Northern Han Dynasty asking them to help Song Dynasty destroy Chen Chen, he believed that Liu Jiyuan would agree, but in this way, did they get any benefits for Song Dynasty?

No, not at all.

Chen Chen was what they wanted to kill, and he could have killed Chen Chen without the help of the Northern Han Dynasty, but now that the Northern Han and Liao people were fighting fiercely, he felt that he could take advantage of this opportunity.

Maybe the emperor of the Song Dynasty didn't like to take advantage of the fire, but Liu Wei liked it. As long as it was cheap, why didn't he take it?
He would not write to Beihan, on the contrary, he would ask Beihan to send someone to beg him, and he believed that he would not have to wait too long.

After Zhao Dezhao left, Liu Wei went to find Zhuge Pi, who had been busy with the siege equipment. When Liu Wei went, they had almost built it.

It was a siege machine built with wooden sticks. It was taller than a city tower, and it had several floors. Each floor could accommodate five or six soldiers. Several wheels were placed under the machine. The sticks are supported like a mobile attic.

"My lord, this thing is almost finished, I don't know what to call it?"

"Cloud Tower."

"Yunlou?" Zhuge Pi smiled, "Good name."

Liu Wei smiled slightly. It doesn't matter whether the name of the cloud tower sounds good or not. The important thing is that when the cloud tower is pushed to the city tower, they don't need to use ladders to climb the tower. There are shields in the middle, and there are shields all around, they can easily climb the tower, and he believes that they can quickly enter the city.

But that's not enough.

Liu Wei has studied Sun Tzu's art of war a lot, and he feels that it is not a wise thing to fight the enemy head-on, so he wants to leave an opening on each floor of the cloud building for shooting arrows.

But archery is not for soldiers to shoot. Soldiers are too busy shooting arrows. Liu Wei made an attack that can shoot arrows continuously. It is a round shooting barrel. Just stir the stirrer next to it to shoot out the sharp arrows in a row. , Ten or twenty times higher than shooting arrows with soldiers. When the time comes, the arrows will rain, and the city of Bayu will be destroyed.

Zhang Gu led his troops to fight the Liao people, and Liu Jiye stayed at home.

A few days later, news came from the frontier that Zhang Gu was defeated, and the Liao people rushed straight to Taiyuan City.

When the news came, Liu Jiyuan was frightened and shocked. He wanted to send Liu Jiye to lead troops to stop and kill the Liao people, but he was a little worried. At this moment, the Chinese officials in the court thought of Da Song.

"Your Majesty, it is impossible for the Song people to hope that the Liao people will destroy us in the Northern Han Dynasty. It is better to ask for help from the Song Dynasty. We believe that the Song people will definitely take action."

Liu Jiyuan hesitated for a while, but finally nodded: "Okay, send someone to ask the Song people for help immediately. As long as they are willing to take action, it doesn't matter if we give them some benefits."

Liu Jiye disagreed with Liu Jiyuan's decision, but because of Liu Jiyuan's fear of him, he seldom went to court.

The people sent by Liu Jiyuan soon arrived at the camp of the Song army. Facing the envoys of the Northern Han Dynasty, Liu Wei only showed a slight smile.

"Your emperor wants us, Song Dynasty, to help you. I don't know what benefits you gave?"

"As long as you Da Song is willing to help, there will be no less coins every year."

Liu Wei shook his head: "But I don't want old coins now, we want Qinzhou, I wonder if it is possible?"

"This……"

The envoy of the Northern Han Dynasty was named Liu Jing, who was Liu Jiyuan's nephew. He had already obtained Liu Jiyuan's secret order when he came, and he could give the Song people money and land, but not too much.

Liu Jing was courageous and smart, and after hearing Liu Wei's request, he said, "Master Liu is trying to take advantage of the fire."

"Don't you just want us Da Song to take advantage of the fire to rob us, otherwise why would you come to beg us Da Song, don't you?"

Liu Jing shrugged his shoulders: "Qinzhou City is not small. Your Excellency will want Qinzhou City as soon as you open your mouth. I'm afraid our sage will not agree."

"It doesn't matter, you can go back and discuss with your sage of the Northern Han Dynasty to see whether he is willing to cede Qinzhou City or the entire Northern Han Dynasty. In fact, looking at your fat meat in the Northern Han Dynasty, our Great Song Dynasty can't help but sharpen our knives." Huo Huo, if you don't even give this benefit, we don't mind grabbing it and grab more benefits."

Liu Wei said it calmly, but anyone could understand what he meant. If the Song Dynasty and the Liao people attacked each other, how could the Northern Han Dynasty exist?
Liu Jing's heart sank, and he quickly said, "Okay, Qinzhou City is Qinzhou City. I don't know when you are willing to send troops."

"Send troops tomorrow, let's deal with our Da Song traitors first."

Hearing Liu Wei's words with anger, Liu Jing secretly rejoiced, and said, "Do you want us from Beihan to help, but if you want us to help, the adult's condition is..."

Liu Wei snorted coldly: "The one who betrayed me, the Song Dynasty, I want him to die without a place to bury him. Why do you need the help of the Northern Han Dynasty?"

Liu Jing was taken aback, he didn't expect Liu Wei to be so domineering, and his words gave people a feeling of revenge, which made people feel jealous of him.

"Since Mr. Liu has said so, then I will go back to our lord right now."

After Liu Jing left, King Wu Zhao Dezhao snorted, looked at Liu Wei and asked, "Lord Liu, since the Northern Han Dynasty is willing to help, why should we refuse them? If we had their help, how many casualties would we be able to save?"

Liu Wei smiled slightly: "Now that the Northern Han Dynasty is at war with the Liao people, what do you think they can do to help? Will they help us fight Chen Chen to death? They won't, and the reason why I want to solve Chen Chen by myself is because In addition to letting people know the fate of betraying Da Song, there is also Yang I Da Song Guowei, if we don’t show our hand in front of the Northern Han people, will they obediently give up Qinzhou?”

"If you want others to believe that you are jealous of you, you must have enough strength." After saying that sentence, Liu Weiyouyou added.

This sentence shocked Wu Wang Zhao Dezhao's heart, and he was deeply inspired. He felt that Liu Wei's words were too correct. No matter what he did, how could he do it without strength?

Martial King Zhao Dezhao gradually had a prototype of accumulating strength in his heart, and this prototype gave him more confidence in winning the throne.

Liu Wei naturally didn't know what effect his words had on Wu Wang Zhao Dezhao. If he had known, he would definitely not have said that last sentence, because this time it would make things difficult for him in the future.

After talking to Zhao Dezhao, Liu Wei issued an order to the army to attack Bayu city tomorrow.

The soldiers of the Song Dynasty have been holding back here for so many days, and when they heard that they will attack the city tomorrow, they were all overjoyed and their emotions were very high.

And just after Liu Wei announced this order, Chen Chen and the others in Bayu City had already learned that the Northern Han Dynasty had asked Da Song for help, and Da Song seemed to agree.

Chen Chen frowned. He felt that Li Yin's guess was right, that the Song army would attack, and all he had to do was to resist the attack of the Song people.

But he felt that this didn't look like Liu Wei's style, would Liu Wei fight them to the death?

"Can you find out clearly, Liu Wei really doesn't want Bei Han's help?"

"Exactly, and the Northern Han Dynasty did not intend to send troops here. They only left 1 troops in Qinzhou City, and the rest were sent to the north to fight against the Liao people."

"1 horses?" Chen Chen was restless, looked at Chen Qing and said, "My dear brother, do we really want to listen to the Liao people and resist Liu Wei?"

Chen Qing looked calm at this moment, and said, "Second Brother, don't you want to capture Qinzhou City?"

"Qinzhou City is stronger than Bayu City. If we can capture Qinzhou City, maybe it will be more useful than resisting Liuwei here?"

Chen Qing smiled and shook his head: "It's better to stick to Bayu City. There are 1 people in Qinzhou City, and we can't take it down."

Chen Chen sighed, and they only had 1 troops, so it was really not easy to attack the city.

"The third brother is right, then do you think Liu Wei will really attack Bayu City?"

"It should be, but I think it might be a trick. How could Liu Wei not let Bei Han help? This is not his style." Chen Qing thought about it, and seemed to understand a little bit, but it seemed that he was not so good. As for not being thorough.

"No matter what, all we need to do now is to stick to Bayu City. Liu Wei may attack the city at any time, and we must send people to take strict precautions."
