A Great Man of the Northern Song Dynasty

Chapter 371 Isn’t This Jealousy of Evil?

Zhao Zhen was thinking.

As the emperor of the Song Dynasty, he knew the current problems of the Song Dynasty.

But the most important problem is foreign enemies.

Needless to say, the Liao people are the number one enemy.

That rebellious Xixia!

At present, there is no concealment of Pang's intention to rebel, so how can he send troops at this time?

yes!

As soon as everyone heard that the Xixia army was attacking with a hundred thousand troops, their first reaction was to panic. No one thought that this was a bluff.

Why?

Because Xixia people dare to fight!

Whether it's the Song Dynasty or the Liao Kingdom, as long as I want to beat you, I will do it.

They also often fight against the Ban people on the plateau...

This is the Xixia people.

Just like the flat-headed brothers of later generations, they were either fighting or on the way to fight.

It was true later that the Liao Kingdom was destroyed and the Song Dynasty was also driven to the south, but the Xixia people still existed.

Such Xixia really gave Song Dynasty a headache.

But now is a good time, there is a tense situation between Wu Zangpang and Li Liangzuo...

yes!

There is a tense situation between them. How can the army dare to attack without concealment?

Could there be some problem with this matter?

Zhao Zhen had some doubts, but he didn't dare to take risks.

What if Wu Zang and Pang really attacked? The Linfu Road is definitely doomed, and the Hedong Road will also face a formidable enemy.

However, with Shen An's analysis in front of him, he was not so nervous at the moment.

King!

The responsible emperor needs to be cautious in everything he does, and nervousness becomes a common occurrence.

At this time, he felt a cramp in his stomach, so he stretched out his hand to rub it.

Every time I'm nervous or angry, I'll have this problem, and then I'll fart a few times and it'll go away.

"I think this matter must be false."

Shen An was refuting the arguments of the courtiers, and was very confident: "Unless they are crazy and crazy, the Xixia people will not go out in force at this time. If you don't hide it, you won't dare to cheat Pang, for fear that Li Liangzuo will copy him There is no way out. And Li Liangzuo would not dare even if he takes power now, because he is too young. He must first eliminate those confidants who are not hiding evil and take control of the political and military power. Only then can he dare to use troops on a large scale."

Zhao Zhen stopped talking and watched the ministers arguing.

The profession of emperor is not easy to do, and it is not good if you express your position frequently, thinking that if you make more mistakes, you will be a fool in the eyes of your officials.

Idiots will naturally be looked down upon and even looked down upon.

Therefore, one of the important reasons why those in power do not express their opinions easily is because they are afraid of making a fool of themselves.

When you argue, I listen, analyze it slowly, and finally summarize it, and I become far-sighted.

"...This matter is just speculation. If the Xixia army really comes, what will happen to Linfu Road?"

Han Qi always refused to give up Linfu Road, feeling that it was an important restraint on Xixia.

Shen An could understand his concerns, but if he mobilized troops and mobilized people for a false news, he was ridiculed by the Liao and Xixia people afterwards, and had to spend a lot of money and food.

So he said seriously: "Even if they take Linfu Road, they won't be able to defend that place. The Liao people will be like a thorn in their backs. They are eager to fight for power and gain, and they are eager to plot rebellion. How can they have the time to do it?" Looking for trouble?"

Han Qi frowned and said: "But after all, we can't take risks... Your Majesty, please send an order to Hedong Road to be on guard and be on guard. In addition... please send reinforcements there and mobilize food and grass."

Fu Bi further suggested: "Your Majesty, please order Hedong Road to send reinforcements to Fuzhou and Linzhou just in case."

Zhao Zhen nodded slightly, thinking that this was not bad, so he said: "Yes."

So the matter was settled, but the scale of the reinforcements was a bit troublesome.

"... Hedong Road already has a lot of troops. If another 50,000 people are mobilized to go there... the food and grass consumption will probably be huge..."

"Then why don't we mobilize 30,000 people? With the Yellow River as a barrier, even if the Xixia people take Linfu Road, they won't dare to cross the river rashly..."

"Yes, thirty thousand is enough."

Zhao Zhen nodded slightly. Seeing Shen An being silent beside him, he thought he was angry, "Shen An, what do you think?"

The officials couldn't help but look at him sideways.

The officials even asked Shen An for his opinion on matters decided by the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty, which shows that they take it seriously.

But there’s nothing wrong with that.

If it hadn't been for Shen An's analysis, everyone would have prepared to deploy a large army to go out of Hedong Road to fight the Xixia people to the death.

So it’s not wrong to respect his opinion.

So everyone looked at Shen An calmly, waiting for his statement.

Shen An came out of work with a pure look on his face.

"Your Majesty, I have nothing to say."

Tsk!

This young man is still insisting on his position?

Zhao Zhen said earnestly: "State affairs cannot be ignored, and foreign enemies should not be ignored either. We would rather play it safe, do you understand?"

This is a sincere teaching, and Shen An is devoted to receive it.

He was cheating, so he felt there was no need to pay attention to this matter.

But Zhao Zhen was different, and so were the important ministers. They didn't know that they would be in trouble if they didn't hide Pang, so they still felt like they were facing a formidable enemy.

Fortunately, his words finally had an effect, and he only sent 30,000 people to reinforce Hedong Road.

Stop fussing a little bit.

Shen An raised his head, suddenly looked at Liu Zhan, and asked, "What do you think, Academician Liu?"

puff!

Fu Bi kept blinking, Han Qi looked confident that "I knew he would be like this", Zhao Zhen covered his forehead and leaned back...

It's just a dispute. Let's get over it. You actually never forget it. At this time, you don't forget to ridicule Liu Zhan.

Isn't that how you hate evil as much as you hate it?

In full view of everyone, Liu Zhan's face turned black. He turned away and said angrily: "I have nothing to say."

What else could he say?

Do you think Linfu Road is worthy of the Xixia people's overwhelming effort to attack?

The monarch and his ministers have analyzed it just now. Even if they come to attack, the number of people will not be too large.

Unless he wants to commit suicide and stand up against the emperor and his ministers.

Having nothing to say means indirectly admitting defeat. Is it time for you, Shen An, to withdraw your troops?

But Shen An said sincerely: "I eat the emperor's salary and share the emperor's worries. Bachelor Liu must be worthy of that salary!"

puff!

Someone burst out laughing, and Zhao Zhen looked away with a black line on his face.

How embarrassing!

Shen An almost pointed at Liu Zhan's nose and scolded him for "occupying the latrine and not shitting".

If you take your salary and do nothing, you are just dawdling!

Shen An's words were to report to the court that Liu Zhan was a mediocre official.

Fu Bi's cheeks trembled, and he advised: "The autumn wind is blowing, go back early, put on more clothes, and make a hot pot!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he regretted it.

There is no official office now, so why am I getting involved in other things? Some Shen An said he was not doing his job properly!

have to!

It was Liu Zhan who did the harm.

At this time, the atmosphere in Fuzhou City was tense, and there were not many pedestrians on the street.

Chen Ang was followed by more than ten sergeants, looking around.

"Whenever there is a stranger around, stop him immediately for questioning and find out his identity... Be careful of spies, be careful again and again."

Not far away, Zhe Jizu came in front.

"Has it been found out?"

Chen Ang said anxiously: "Although we haven't seen a large number of enemy troops, Bianliang is definitely anxious and wants to find out the enemy's information as soon as possible!"

Zhe Jizu pointed in the direction of the city head, and they walked side by side.

"The Xixia people are a little unreasonable this time. If a large army were to press the border, at least tens of thousands of rangers would have arrived at this moment."

Zhe Jizu's steps were long, and Chen Ang had to walk faster to keep up.

He asked eagerly: "There are only more than two thousand riders here, why is that?"

Zhe Jizu's footsteps stagnated, he stopped and looked at the city, and said, "Could it be...a bluff!"

The two went to the top of the city and looked into the distance.

"More than thirty riders are investigating."

Zhe Jizu put down the telescope. Chen Ang didn't know what it was, but Zhe Jizu had never seen it before, so he could only drool.

"This is wrong!"

Chen Ang patted the city bricks and said, "What do you mean by the side of Hedong?"

An official behind him said: "Qian Ju, the people on the east side of Hedong say that the Xixia army is pressing on the border, and reinforcements are necessary."

Chen Ang sighed and said: "They should have sent messengers to Bianliang a long time ago. Reinforcements will gather by then... If the enemy troops press the border, it will be fine. If it is a false alarm, then the Song Dynasty will be really embarrassed."

Zhe Jizu's eyes flickered and he said: "Qian Ju, this matter cannot be delayed. Someone deliberately sent people to Bianliang at high speed and said that this matter is the Xixia people's bluff. What do you think?"

He was taking a risk, but he wanted to bring Chen Ang along. If it fails, everyone will be unlucky together. If it succeeds, the relationship between Chen Ang and the Zhe family will naturally become closer in the future.

He is not a brainless man, but the current patriarch of the Zhe family.

As the patriarch, he needs to make the Zhe family better and better, and Linfu Road Army Ma Si is a force worth winning over.

The last time Shen An came to Fuzhou, he and Chen Ang had several conflicts, but they later relaxed.

Chen Ang is a bureaucrat, a typical civil servant, but he is not too selfish and can be socialized.

Zhe Jizu searched for it for a long time, and finally felt that this was an opportunity.

As long as Chen Ang agrees, everyone will be considered colleagues who have suffered together.

He seemed to be looking into the distance, but from the corner of his eyes, he glanced at Chen Ang, who had a changing expression next to him.

Chen Ang was suffering.

This thing is an opportunity.

If Zhe Jizu's judgment comes true, he will also follow suit.

That is far-sightedness and keen vision!

But once you make a mistake, UU Reading www.uukanshu.net it will be a heinous crime...

Success is a meritorious service, failure is a great sin...

He closed his eyes and murmured: "Human, how difficult it is..."

Zhe Jizu said: "You have to take risks, not to mention the Xixia people's momentum is wrong. I bet that this is fake."

He said with piercing eyes: "If there is any mistake, someone will bear it."

These words were very interesting, but Chen Ang said calmly: "If there is a mistake, I can't run away. Your full responsibility is just a lie."

Zhe Jizu blushed and said, "Someone..."

"You are the patriarch of this generation of the Zhe family. You have to consider the Zhe family, but I am not a fool!"

Chen Ang looked at Zhe Jizu with disdain and said, "You are stupid, but you have some small ideas, but the method is not sophisticated enough. You will know it when you hear it."

Zhe Jizu was not upset even if he was caught and revealed. He smiled and said, "That's all."

If you don't want to, then I'll do it myself.

The Zhe family has always been a gambler, especially Zhe Jizu.

Chen Ang glanced at the telescope hanging around his neck and said, "What do you mean? Since you want to report, of course someone will write it."

This guy actually agreed?

Zhe Jizu was happy in his heart, and then he said with a smile: "Okay, Qianjia will write it and mark it with a certain painting."

The third update arrived, good night.
