I became the son of Renzong

Chapter 887

The main reason why the civil strife in the Northern Liao Dynasty has reached such a point is that the interests of the nobles and the royal family are not consistent to some extent.

Beiliao has been full of rebellion and betrayal since its establishment.

During the Five Dynasties, Yelu Abao, the leader of the Diela tribe of the Khitan, took advantage of the civil strife in the Central Plains to unify the tribes, and replaced the Khan of Khan Dejin.He successively suppressed the rebellion of the Khitan nobles and conquered the Xi, Shiwei, Zub and other tribes, and held the salt-producing areas, and was very powerful in military and economic aspects.

Yelu Abaoji returned home in Wei Desheng in the expedition room, but was forced to surrender his position. Soon he built a city in imitation of Youzhou by the Luan River.Subsequently, Yelu Abaoji established the Khitan Kingdom, which became the Taizu of the Liao Dynasty.

Taizu of the Liao Dynasty had always had the intention of going south to the Central Plains, but fell ill on the way back to his teacher the next year after the Bohai Sea was conquered, and finally passed away.His wife, Shuluping, declared the regent. His second son, Yelu Deguang, Emperor Taizong of the Liao Dynasty, took over the government and massacred hundreds of political enemies to stabilize the regime.The crown prince Dongdan King Yelubei fled south to the Later Tang Dynasty, and Emperor Taizong of the Liao Dynasty unified Khitan.

Later, when the emperor succeeded, Yeluhou and other generals who occupied Bianliang supported Yeluruan as emperor, who was Emperor Shizong of Liao Dynasty.The Empress Dowager Shuluping in Shangjing wanted her son Yelu Lihu to inherit the throne, but she disagreed with Yelu Ruan becoming emperor.

The queen mother sent Yelu Lihu and Yelu Ruan to fight at Taide Spring in the north of Nanjing, Liaoning, and Yelu Ruan finally won the war.After being dissuaded by the minister Yelu Wuzhi, the Queen Mother agreed with Yelu Ruan's throne.

However, Yeluruan was killed by Yelucha in his sleep.

Yeluchagou launched a coup, killed Liao Shizong and proclaimed himself emperor. After Liao Taizong's eldest son Yelvjing and Yeluwuzhi led troops to kill Yelvchagou, he was established as emperor, that is, Liao Muzong.

Next, there were political affairs orders Yelu Louguo, Lin Ya Yelv Dilie, etc. who conspired and were arrested and put to death; Yelu Wan, the son of Yelu Lihu, and others rebelled; Defeated and punished; Yelu Xiyin, the son of Yelu Lihu, conspired against him and other incidents.

Liao Taizu was only the leader of the tribal alliance from the beginning, so he was destined to be the co-owner of the entire Khitan ethnic group.It is also doomed to the turmoil in the Northern Liao Dynasty.

After reading the entire inheritance of the Northern Liao Dynasty, Zhao Xi couldn't figure out the relationship between the King of the Northern Liao Dynasty and the Taizu of the Liao Dynasty at this time.

In fact, the inheritance of the Northern Liao Dynasty does not hinder the affairs of the state. Zhao Xi is concerned about this, and also asked the cabinet to review these contents, in order to let everyone have a general understanding of the current situation of the Northern Liao Dynasty... Dou, the leader of the entire Khitan ethnic group, is a bystander.

Even though the Northern Liao Dynasty now has a model of unified power on the surface, in its core, the Khitan nobles always consider it from the standpoint of their own tribe.

A powerful official who was able to rebel when the court was on guard, and even fought a protracted war evenly matched the forces of the rebels... Despite the fact that the rebels had mental calculations and no intentions, there was also the fact that the Northern Liao The reasons for the disunity of thought within the nobility.

It is not surprising to have such a mind in a court that gains the right to speak based on the strength of the tribe.

However, Beiliao has a dynasty form after all, even if it is a co-lord mode, it is still a dynasty.

Once the country sends troops, I am afraid that the situation at the beginning will still occur... The Northern Liao ceased fighting, and the nobles sent troops to the south.

This is Zhao Xi's judgment.

Zhao Xi's current situation in the court can be resolved with one word, which is also the result of many accurate judgments in the past.

However, Zhao Xi seldom acts arbitrarily... The deliberative system of the state is conducive to the healthy operation of a dynasty, and it can also prevent the fate of the dynasty from being determined by the wiseness of the king.

Zhao Xi wants to continue this model to a certain extent, so as to realize the long-term survival of the Song Dynasty.

This time, the cabinet once again had a disagreement with the officials, and Zhao Xi also went to persuade them, but it seemed that the effect was not very good.

The national power of Guochao has become stronger, and the Northern Liao Dynasty is facing civil strife. No matter how you look at it, this is the best time for Guochao to recover Yanyun.

As for the Scholars Association's belief that sending troops is to encourage Yelu Yixin's treasonous behavior... the officials should not care much about these false names.Besides, as long as Yanyun is recovered, those scholars' gossip will become a joke.

This is the judgment of the cabinet.

"Officials, the civil strife in the Northern Liao Dynasty has lasted for more than three months. The ministers believe that the nobles of the Northern Liao Dynasty who participated in the civil strife this time should not be limited to the royal family, descendants and Yelu Yixin."

"The reason why the current situation of confrontation can be caused, the ministers believe that there are situations in which various forces in the Northern Liao Dynasty intervene because of different positions."

"The ministers think that the current civil strife in Northern Liao is already a mess, and it is the reality that no one in the internal forces of Northern Liao can avoid their position."

"Besides, after more than three months of civil strife, Beiliao's combat power has been lost to a certain extent. Sending troops at this time can prevent Beiliao from being all soldiers who have experienced war..."

"In fact, judging from the reports of Hebei Road, the number of troops stationed in the border of the Northern Liao Dynasty has been decreasing. Officials, don't miss this opportunity!"

This time, it was regarded as a unification of the cabinet, which was agreed upon and made a statement by Wang Anshi to the officials.

On this issue, Zhao Xi is only judging, and cannot obtain results from past history.

The original history can no longer be found, and many of them have deviated from the original trajectory.

For example, this time Yelv Yixin rebelled, Zhao Xi didn't remember it ever happened.

Beiliao began to decline from this generation. That was the history of the past. Due to the battle with the Guochao River East, the current Beiliao, although the imperial court is still the same, but the military strength does not seem to have declined significantly.

Zhao Xi agreed to send troops for the first time, and analyzed the situation of the entire battle in Hebei Province... Guochao did not have an absolute advantage.

Can Chaotang...~
Enthusiasm cannot be beaten, especially this kind of ambitious enthusiasm.

"How many troops are on defense in Hebei Road now?"

"Returning to the official's house, except for the cavalry, the troops mobilized last time have not been withdrawn."

"In this case, let's send troops! However, I request that troops can be sent, and the battle must be ensured with superior forces. Once a large number of troops from the Northern Liao Dynasty move south, the country will still focus on defense!"

Zhao Xi is not sure that his judgment is absolutely correct.

The imperial court now shares the intelligence about the Northern Liao Dynasty with the cabinet. The same information, the information obtained from it is different, so the decisions made are also different.

Zhao Xi dare not say that he is stronger than everyone in the cabinet. Since the cabinet has a unanimous opinion, let's get in touch...

As far as the cabinet is concerned, it is enough to persuade officials to send troops.

As for fighting with superior forces... Although they don't understand the official's intentions, the cabinet doesn't think there is any problem with it.

After all, there is nothing wrong with the purpose of reducing unnecessary battle damage when not fighting on all fronts.

In fact, this kind of non-all-out military order is the most taboo when going on an expedition.
