I became the son of Renzong

Chapter 737 Treating Differently

This was not something that could be accomplished overnight.

People always have some illusions, and Zhao Xi didn't expect that with the current situation, Xingqing Mansion would be completely down.

In fact, the war has reached the present, and Xixia's strength has not been greatly lost, or it is only injured, not to the point of dying.

The strategic intention of the Song Dynasty was to suppress all sides and blossom in the center. In fact, only the Xixia garrison in the Hexi Corridor, the Weifu Army Division in Heishan, and the Yan Army Division in Heishui Town were really annihilated by the imperial army.In terms of battle damage, it was less than [-]% of Xixia's.

This is also the basis for the people of Xixia to dare to dream... I still don't want to be cruel!

If it weren't for the unrest within the Xingqing Mansion, I'm afraid that the Xingqing Mansion would not even propose a peace now.

It is advisable to chase the poor with the remaining courage, not to be known as the overlord... Zhao Xi suddenly remembered this poem, and wrote it on the desk solemnly...
"Official..."

The cabinet went to the Palace of Qinzheng to discuss matters in order to discuss how to deal with Xixia in the end.How to treat the royal family, nobles, cavalry, and herdsmen differently.

As soon as they entered the door, the cabinet members saw the words written by the officials on the desk.

The meaning of this sentence is not difficult to understand. The officials want to change their original intention.

If it is simply to destroy Xixia, with Guochao's current combat power, there is really no need to spend such a big effort.The reason for such a plan, to put it bluntly, is to completely wipe out Xixia, not to repeat the mistakes of the previous emperor, and to let the party members go north to the desert for the future.

If it is just to recover Fuqing and Yinxia, ​​it only needs to send a large army all the way, and they can crush all the way and be invincible.

In addition, after all, they are all disciples of sages and sages, so it is impossible to make a decision to kill millions of Dangxiang people, nor can they make a decision to directly exterminate the entire Dangxiang ethnic group.

Therefore, the imperial court had a big plan to let the partial division go west and send the five-way army to form a siege around Xingqing Mansion.

The original agreement was to use power to force the royal family and nobles of Xixia to surrender unconditionally, and the entire party group was settled by the state, not to kill.

In Zhao Xi's concept, there is no difference between a party member or a Han Chinese, or he has a better understanding of the country than of race.

Later generations pay attention to humanitarianism, and dynasties pay attention to the kingly way. In a sense, they are all the same, that is, they cannot commit genocide.

All kinds of wars can be used. If the two sides negotiate, they will really take humanitarianism seriously.

In addition, there is another more important reason.I believe that no matter whether it is Beiliao, Dali, Annan, including Huangtou Huihe and Xizhou Uighur, they are all staring at this battle in Songxia.How to deal with the Xixia royal family and nobles will have a great impact on the future unification of Kyushu and the integrity of the world.

Guochao has the ability to exterminate the party. Under the current situation of encirclement, the Guochao army can easily crush it.But what about the future?The Northern Liao, Huihe, Uighur, knowing that there is no room for compromise with the country, what choice will they make?

The country's combat power is due to the well-trained soldiers, but the real advantage is the chariots.And the biggest disadvantage of the chariot is speed... The packhorse chariot still cannot compare with the speed of the cavalry.

To put it bluntly, how to deal with party members is just a show, and it is for others to see.

Therefore, when the cabinet proposed a kingly strategy, Zhao Xi also agreed with it.But these two verses...is this going to be extinct?
"Oh, everyone is here..."

"Another excellent work by the official family? This poem is magnificent..."

No one can understand the killing intent in official poems.Wang Anshi praised the verses, hoping that they were just verses, not the true state of mind of the officials.

"The Xingqing Mansion couldn't recognize the situation clearly, and didn't understand the painstaking efforts of the court. I just expressed my feelings... Since it is a decision made, I will not overthrow it. However, in the end, there is still no pain, no fear , have not hit enough to make Xingqing Mansion sober."

In fact, Zhao Xi did express his feelings, because the Xixia Xingqing Mansion still had illusions under such circumstances...Sometimes it really can't be kind.

"Officials, regarding the resettlement principles of the party's royal family, nobles, soldiers and herdsmen, the cabinet has agreed and initially has an intention..."

Fu Bi has been silent ever since he read the official poems.It was supposed to be him who asked the government to ask the cabinet to agree on resettlement principles, but Fu Bi didn't say anything.He already felt dissatisfaction with the officials. Of course, this was not dissatisfaction with the cabinet, but dissatisfaction with the party members.

Therefore, I am afraid that the officials are not in the mood to discuss the placement of party members.

Wang Anshi could also feel the official's killing intent, but he believed that the official's words were true and would not change the previous order.And because of the many thoughts on the resettlement of Xixia, most of them are his suggestions from Wang Anshi.So, seeing that Fu Bi was silent, he invited him.

"Let's put it on hold for now..."

"Official..."

"Old Wangge, be safe and don't be impatient. I don't want to change my original intention and let the army in front do the killing. However, the court still took it for granted, thinking that there was something about Qingtang Tubo, and Xingqing Mansion would learn from it. Under the general situation , will choose to compromise.”

"In fact, the two are different. Although Qingtang Tubo is a party, it is better to say that they are a tribe. They have no differences, or the differences are very small. The high-level officials of the entire Tubo still have to consider them to a certain extent. All the people of the tribe are alive and dead."

"But Xixia is different. Xixia's system determines that there are entanglements among their high-level leaders, which leads to the issue of the interests of all parties even if there is a compromise."

"Due to the different offensives and fighting intensity of the various armies in the early stage, the losses of the various forces in Xixia are also different, and they have different demands."

"Strength determines the right to speak. Judging from the situation of Xingqing Mansion's dispatch of envoys, it is estimated that those forces that have not suffered too much loss have occupied the right to speak in Xingqing Mansion, so they have illusions."

Zhao Xi felt that this should be almost the current situation inside Xingqing Mansion.Tribes with severely damaged combat power hope that the war will end here, otherwise, whether Xixia survives or surrenders to Song Dynasty, the interests will be further compressed.

And those who have not lost much combat power, think they still have combat power... Yes, after all, the depth of the Xingqing and Yinxia areas is still enough for the Xixia people to move around, and the intensity of the battle has been reduced recently. It also fueled their arrogance.

"What is the official order...?"

"Let's treat it differently. Let the front count the battle losses of the Western Xia armies in the early stage of the battle. The combat intensity of the Xixia military commanders who suffered serious early stage battle losses will be reduced, and the army must be restrained when advancing; while the early stage battle damage is not serious. Military commanders or forces, so that the soldiers in front must not have any chances."
