I became the son of Renzong

Chapter 697
What Zhao Xi was guarding against, and what Fu Bi was worried about, did not happen during the group discussion at the Great Court Meeting.

Whether it is voluntary or forced, launching a big war against Xixia can be regarded as an overall pass, and all affairs are also arranged.

……

Soon, less than a month after the end of the Great Dynasty, all the deployments have been in place.Even if there were minor mistakes during the period, they were quickly resolved.

In fact, the general trend of encircling Xixia was formed years ago.

Zhao Xi also began to pay attention to government affairs, and began to stay in the Hall of Qinzheng every day to review the accumulated memorials.

"Officials, the rich are asking to see..."

While Wang Zhongzheng was speaking, Fu Bi and other cabinet ministers had already entered.

When Zhao Xi was handling government affairs, it was still such a special period, and the reports of the cabinet ministers when they met were like this.

Seeing that all the cabinet members came in together, Zhao Xi didn't look serious, and was as relaxed as ever.He also relaxed.

At this time, if there is any accident, it will be a little tricky.

"Officials, Tang County is in a hurry, and Northern Liao sent envoys to the south..."

Oh, that's kind of interesting.

"How did the cabinet decide?"

"Back to the official's house, the ministers thought that the Northern Liao's dispatch of envoys might have something to do with the border of Chen Bing. The ministers thought that the dispatch of the envoys by the Northern Liao should not be to ask for accountability, but to seek peace, or they wanted to know what happened. "

This feeling is very good!Once upon a time, once there was an abnormality at the border, the imperial court sent envoys to go north, and they still endured the humiliation.He, Fu Bi, has done this.

"He dare not be held accountable!"

Wang Anshi also became arrogant.In other words, the entire cabinet ministers dare to speak so arrogantly now.

"Beiliao won't take advantage of the opportunity? For example, to harass the border, or increase troops on Shangjing Road after knowing that the country has declared war on Xia, and seize some territory?"

"Officials, harassing the borders of the country and the dynasty, just as Jiefu said, he dare not! If it is said that he took the opportunity to occupy some territory in Xixia, I think it is possible, but it is only possible."

"According to the report, it is the time of Spring Nabo in the Northern Liao Dynasty, that is, their king is playing and beating the Jurchens in the east of Liaodong."

One grows and the other fades away, the country meets a virtuous king, and the Beiliao is being thrown away by thousands of miles.

Fu Bi is very sarcastic, and now he is also qualified to tease Beiliao.

"Well, since that's the case, the cabinet can decide. How to receive and how to make a statement, the cabinet should decide. If you need an interview with me, just arrange it casually."

"I think it is appropriate to try to maintain a little face at this time. After all, the country is not strong enough to fight on both sides. The cabinet will handle it at its discretion."

Zhao Xi thought for a while, at this moment in Beiliao, it is really impossible for any moth to appear.

Guochao's action this time was very hasty for the dispatch of troops on Hebei East Road, and Beiliao would not have any defenses.

Besides, most of the deployments in Hebei are mainly heavy artillery, which is obviously defensive.

Set the tone and let the cabinet handle it.

However, Zhao Xi seems to have neglected it. He has paid little attention to the report of the Imperial City Secretary these days, and has devoted himself to the internal affairs of the country...~The battle is about money and grain, and Zhao Xi is mainly worried about this.

In the face of absolute strength, all plots are useless.

Therefore, he needs to be sure that the country can support this large-scale war.

"Zhongzheng, tell me what reports I need to know during this period of time. If you can't take care of it, you can just say whatever you want, and I will take a rest after listening."

It is indeed tiring to review the piled up memorials.Just listen to Wang Zhongzheng's report, and change your mind.

"Returning to the official's house, in fact, no matter if the Northern Liao sent envoys to the court, according to the report of the Imperial City Division, Annan, Dali and Xixia will send envoys to Beijing in the near future."

Ok?Zhao Xi was a little dazed.Where is it all?

"You keep talking."

"Officials, didn't the imperial court decide not to mobilize the garrisons of Guangnan and Chengdu, saying that it was to prevent Annan and Dali from making trouble."

"Guangnan and Chengdu, seeing that there are limited officers and soldiers staying behind, also followed the imperial court's practice. The retired soldiers and government servants jointly maintained stability, and directly sent the remaining troops to the border."

And this?Zhao Xi was a little confused.It is impossible for the country to mobilize the army without going through him, the king, even the Privy Council and the Ministry of War, have no right to mobilize soldiers, especially the new army.

"Officials, please read the memorial together with the troop deployment, or a small seal."

When Wang Zhongzheng saw that the officials began to turn over various recitations, he understood what was going on.

I remember that the official said at the time: It can be regarded as cautious.

Really busy and confused.Zhao Xi also remembered.

At present, it is indeed the most prudent and safest way to deploy limited troops on non-war borderlines.

It's just that I didn't expect that it would cause tension in these neighboring countries!
When did Guochao become so cruel?Just deploy a soldier and let them do this?

"Well, go...invite the cabinet in again...~"

This matter was neglected.

……

"Everyone, it was also my negligence. The Imperial City Secretary found out that Annan, Dali, including Xixia, all sent envoys to Bianliang."

"Chen Bing across the border, in addition to cautious defense, also has the effect of confusing the line of sight. However, next, how to receive and appease the envoys of various countries, we need to set a direction..."

I'm very embarrassed, just after leaving, Zhao Xi announced the cabinet again.

This really needs to be discussed.

It is an established strategy to fight Xixia and defend other borders.

I thought that neighboring countries should be able to see the situation clearly.After all, the number of Chen soldiers on the border is not enough to fight a big battle, except for the Northwest.

But all the neighboring countries sent envoys to Bianliang, so there are some problems.

Zhao Xi didn't think that all the neighboring countries were afraid of the Song Dynasty. He was worried about the communication between these neighboring countries first, and then he would attack the Song Dynasty from all over the world, which would be troublesome.

Ordinarily, these countries have very few border disputes, and such a situation should not happen.

"Officials, it's actually nothing, because they're scared."

Scared?The meaning of this attributive can be different, and the amount of information is a bit large.

"Be specific."

"The officials don't know something. There is no need to say more about the Northern Liao. Since the defeat of the Liao-Xia allied forces in Hedong, the Northern Liao has changed its color towards the country. Not to mention the attitude of the envoys, the most representative place is the discussion field." .”

"In the past, even though the market was at the junction, as long as there were disputes in the transaction of the market, it was the merchants of the country who finally compromised, and even the officials who were in charge of the market agreed with this. Because the people of the Northern Liao Dynasty would say: 30 Iron cavalry, send troops to the border!"

"Nowadays, merchants in the country often say: 20 new troops Chen Bing border!"

"As for Annan and Dali, there's no need to mention it. Whether it's a mining city located in Dali, or the civil strife that Guochao has rectified for Dali, in Dali, the merchants of Guochao have always been superior."

"Annan, because of the two Southern Expeditions, he is even more respectful to Guochao! Of course, Shiyi Temple is fair in this respect, and he also persuades Guochao's merchants not to be arrogant!"

This... How should I put it, Zhao Xi forgot to understand the strength comparison from this aspect.

"Properly warn merchants, don't go too far!"

what else?Even Zhao Xi didn't believe in the so-called justice.

But, Guochao is really powerful?
