I became the son of Renzong

Chapter 711 Reaction of all parties

No battle is set in stone.

The offensive and defensive aspects of war are not static.Just like now, it is Song Dynasty who is attacking Xixia with all its strength, and Song Dynasty is the attacking side.

It is precisely because of the power of the country that it is destined that in the territory of the Song Dynasty, except for the routine stability, almost all the military forces of the country are on the front line.

There is a disadvantage in this way. If there is any mistake in the army along the way, the Xixia cavalry can quickly enter the territory of the Song Dynasty through this gap. At that time, the Song Dynasty will become the defensive side... The result is unimaginable.

This is also the reason why Fu Bi anxiously asked the court to urgently order Gao Zunyu to turn west after listening to the officials' narration.

Guochao's combat power crushed Xixia with its superiority in armaments. Although the individual combat capabilities of soldiers have improved, there is no good solution to the problem of infantry fighting cavalry.

The infantry formation should be said to be the only way.

However, most of the country's military forces are fighting against Xixia, and a small part is guarding Beiliao, Annan Dali and other countries.

Once Gao Zunyu's troops made a mistake and lost tens of thousands of soldiers...even the Xixia cavalry used Huanqing as an incision, and the cavalry drove straight in from Huanqing, that would be a disaster for the country!

Sigh... If I knew that I should dissuade the officials, I shouldn't be so desperate!
Compared with the state capital of Xixia, the wealth of Song Dynasty is not comparable to that of Xixia, that is the difference between porcelain and earthen pots.

The countries and dynasties simply cannot afford to gamble on the issue of allowing each other to cause chaos.

As far as Zhao Xi was worried, it wasn't that serious.

This is just an assumption, it is Zhao Xi putting himself in the position of the king of Xixia, facing such an offensive from the country, Zhao Xi is thinking about what he will do.

Of course, it is not ruled out that there are experts in Xixia who have such a strategic vision, dare to put aside Xingqing and Yinxia, ​​concentrate on breaking through Gao Zunyu, and then enter the territory of Song Dynasty...~
At that time, it may not be the way out for Xixia to trade space for space, and Guochao throws a mouse-snapping weapon.

"Fu Xiang, the imperial court can expedite the edict, but there is no need to worry too much."

"Fuxiang, my considerations like this are based on the fact that Xixia is also a system of great unification and centralized power, just like the Guo Dynasty."

"In fact, although Xixia has been correcting their own system since Li Yuanhao. After so many years, Xixia still has not changed the essence of their co-ownership."

"The king of Xixia does not have the right to directly govern all Xixia subjects, but manages through the leaders of various tribes and nobles."

"Li Yuanhao is indeed a great talent. Unfortunately, since Li Yuanhao, Xixia has dominated the weak and the strong, and the disputes between the descendants and powerful officials have become more and more obvious. As a result, Xixia has not completed the collection of power at all."

"What I envisage is only based on the Guochao system. Concentrate all forces, use Huanqing as a breakthrough, enter Guochao's territory, occupy Huanqing, and thus gain bargaining chips with Guochao..."

"It's just that this idea may not be possible in Xixia! It is impossible for any force, every commander, to give up their own territory, nor can they give up their own territory."

"This determines that even if there is a mistake in Gao Zunyu's department, it is limited to Gao Zunyu's headquarters, and it will not affect the general situation. Besides, I don't think Gao Zunyu has the courage to dare to defy the imperial court."

"Delay the transition to battle, and break through as many frontier strongholds as possible, so as to maximize the contribution of the headquarters...~This is already the greatest possibility of Gao Zunyu's department!"

This is a major event, a major event related to the Great Song Dynasty, even if it is a descendant, the empress's uncle, if he really dares to disobey the imperial edict, Zhao Xi will never tolerate it.

A general who disobeys the imperial court, does not cherish the lives of soldiers, has no overall view, and only considers military merits is unqualified!
Although the officials have already explained the truth, the cabinet still issued the edict as quickly as possible, and repeatedly told the courier to deliver it as quickly as possible.

At the same time, the cabinet ministers unanimously requested Chief Inspector Fan Chunren to use the order of the Chief Inspector's Office to let the inspectors of Gao Zunyu's army follow Gao Zunyu's behavior closely. Combat command is handed over to the leader of Zhongyi!

The cabinet ministers also sent letters to all the civil servants of Gao Zunyu's army in the form of private letters, asking them to carry out the imperial edict...

The Gao family can't die. Since Taizu Icewine released his military power, these generals and aristocratic families are not guilty of treason or death!

Even if Gao Zunyu is beaten to the end in the end, even if he is demoted to a commoner, so what?The same cannot be exchanged for the lives of [-] to [-] soldiers!

Therefore, the cabinet ministers are very anxious.

It is related to the supervisory office, which must be passed through the official.

When Fan Chunren brought the order of the supervisory office and asked for the official's permission, Zhao Xi didn't say much...~ It was right to do so, instead of punishing after the event, it is better to prevent it beforehand.

……

Back in Neiyuan, Zhao Xi also talked about the current situation with Tao Niang for the first time, focusing on the situation of Gao Zunyu's department.

Zhao Xi is to say hello to Tao Niang in advance in case Gao Zunyu needs to be dealt with...~He can't be a ruthless emperor.

"Third brother, if you replace my uncle now, isn't it okay?"

Gao Taotao knew how many bowls of rice her uncle ate.At this time, the third brother had already explained clearly to him the reason why his uncle was allowed to lead the army, and how the general situation took care of him.

Gao Taotao understood that the aristocratic family needs this credit, and now the only one who is qualified to lead the army is his uncle.

"I don't quite agree with changing generals before the battle. In fact, this is just the worst plan. After the court considered this possibility, it has already responded. According to the current progress, there should be no accidents."

This is not Zhao Xi comforting Tao Niang, it is indeed the case.

It was blocked from other roads, and then resolved. During the entire advancement process, the abnormality of this road was discovered.

Immediately, the imperial court adjusted its strategy and issued an edict at the same time.

If Gao Zunyu is unfavorable and faints, he has time to make up for it and avoid it.

"Third brother, my uncle's family has made third brother worry! It's really impossible, don't let the aristocratic family lead the army again..."

Tao Niang didn't want to make things difficult, much less did she want to make things difficult for her third brother.Whether or not to lead the army will not have much impact on the Gao family.

There is no problem with this generation, and the next generation is sure to be his son who will inherit the throne...

"Tao Niang, I'm thinking too much. Whether it's the court or myself, whether you can lead the army or not, I won't be nepotism."

"Jingxian and Jingting are both generals, and you can't waste the talents of your uncle's family because of choking. Don't worry, Tao Niang, this matter is in time."

How can Gao Taotao feel relieved?Let the third brother go back to Neiyuan to talk about this with himself, it is sure that there is a great possibility of it happening.

Zhao Xi's relief did not let Gao Taotao rest.After waiting for Zhao Xi to rest, Gao Taotao asked his personal maid to notify her natal family through Cao Xiang overnight, and asked her father to notify her uncle as soon as possible, strictly implement the imperial edict, and never dare to resist in the slightest!
Even Gao Taotao did not hesitate to warn his family by threatening his favor.
