Son of Song Dynasty

Chapter 237 It's all the work of King Qi!

Shi Jianzhi himself became more and more shocked the more he read.

Not to mention the ministers above the court, naturally including Zhao Kuangyin.

Of course, Zhao Dezhao is the only one who always stands alone with his hands behind his back, proud and motionless as a mountain.

Because he is the only one who knows that as long as Zhao Yuanzuo and Fang Zhengqi follow their own plan, at least they won't lose.

"Shuiluo City! You actually won!"

"Did I hear you right! The 30 Song army fought against the [-] Northern Han army, and they actually drove the enemy away!"

"This... this is a great achievement!"

Except for Zhao Dezhao, everyone found it unbelievable, unbelievable.

Eighty thousand versus 30!It is already a miracle to be able to hold the city unbroken!
And Zhao Yuanzuo was able to defeat the Northern Han Dynasty and force it to retreat in an all-round way, which is really amazing!
However, Mr. Zhao Kuangyin nodded, then shook his head again.

"This is a secret report from the chamberlain! It's not even an official battle report from the front line."

This is also true!In this battle, the commander-in-chief of the front line is naturally Zhao Yuanzuo, the town's special envoy.

And the frontline chief is Gao Huaide, the Jiedu envoy of the Zhongwu Army.

The battle reports sent in the names of these two people are considered official battle reports.

Before Zhao Kuangyin could urge him, suddenly another eunuch shouted outside the hall,
"Your Majesty! On the front line of Shuiluo City, the town's special envoy Zhao Yuanzuo has arrived! The military commander Gao Huaide has arrived!"

"Quickly! Read it to me quickly..."

The official battle report finally arrived, and it was in double copies. Zhao Kuangyin couldn't wait, and immediately asked the servant to read it in class.

Gao Huaide's battle report is a bit simple, but his joy can also be seen in the pen and ink. He also said that under the leadership of the special envoy at the town, he had indeed defeated the Northern Han army, and asked the emperor to reward the special envoy!
However, Zhao Yuanzuo's battle report is very detailed. It was written almost from the moment he arrived in Shuiluo City. He described the situation of the battle so far so thoroughly that everyone understood. Beat the 30 Northern Han army to pieces!

"Your Majesty! I want to ask for credit for the special envoy of the town! It is not an exaggeration for the special envoy to be called the current Zhang Liao!"

Tang Jixian presented him with a big hat. It looked like he was praising Zhao Yuanzuo, but he was actually praising Zhao Guangyi.

During the Three Kingdoms period, Wei general Zhang Liao was in Hefei, and once defeated Sun Quan's [-] troops with [-] troops.

The strategy of general talent is fully displayed.

But the current Zhao Yuanzuo's performance is probably not inferior to Zhang Liao's, so he is called Zhang Liao of the present age!

When Zhao Guangyi heard this, his face was naturally full of glory.

I was overjoyed in my heart, thinking that I had made a profit this time, not only did I not get my son involved, but I got the highest honor instead.

At this time, veteran Zhao Pu suddenly said, "Wait a minute! Your Majesty! In fact, the special envoy from the town has not finished reading this battle report..."

Zhao Kuangyin was stunned, but Zhao Guangyi was shocked. He felt sensitively that this old guy was probably going to do something to plot against my son.

At this time, other ministers around Zhao Pu who were close also said, "Your Majesty! There is a full page behind this battle report! The servant did not read it."

The waiter quickly turned over the battle report and saw that it was indeed a page full of writing on the back, and he quickly continued reading.

This reading once again shocked the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty.

Zhao Guangyi's face turned dark and he was quite dejected.

It turned out that on this page, Zhao Yuanzuo praised Zhao Dezhao.

From the time when Zhao Yuanzuo visited Zhao Dezhao at the order of his father, when he talked about seeing Zhao Dezhao in the study, "Wang Shibei set Taiyuan Day", to the skillful sand table at the border between the Northern and Han Dynasties.

Then the two of them had a heart-to-heart talk, and Zhao Dezhao handed him the art of war, and then Zhao Yuanzuo was recommended by him as the special envoy to the border. That night, Zhao Dezhao analyzed the situation at the border for him, and taught him how to make good use of Wang Jien and use him as a gun. On the second day of Shuiluo City, food from wealthy families will be used as military rations...

In short, everyone understands that every decision and every measure Zhao Yuanzuo made in the border town was taught by Zhao Dezhao behind his back.

This seesaw-like offensive and defensive battle in Shuiluo City is actually tantamount to Zhao Yuanzuo fighting a war in Shuiluo City as Zhao Dezhao's agent.

In the end, Zhao Yuanzuo also made it clear that he was the puppet of His Royal Highness King Qi, and he won this great victory only under his control throughout the whole process.

Ma Zhi and the others were overjoyed, and began to take back all the praises of Zhao Yuanzuo from the people of the Jin Dynasty just now, and put them on Zhao Dezhao again.

Everyone in the Jin family, especially Jin Wang Zhao Guangyi, was embarrassed and smiled wryly.

But Zhao Dezhao still acted nonchalantly.

Although Zhao Kuangyin also looked expressionless, he was happy in his heart.

It seems that I made the right choice this time, this son is indeed very exciting!

It is not new to have such wise plans and strategies. What is strange is that at such a young age, he has such a profound strategic vision and a very effective strategy against the enemy.

Zhao Kuangyin suppressed his joy, put aside this topic, and asked the civil and military officials, "Since the battle of the border town ended with the withdrawal of the Northern Han army, what will happen next? What do you think?"

Zhao Guangyi stepped forward without waiting for others to speak.
"Your Majesty! I believe that the defeat of the Northern Han Dynasty will definitely deal a blow to the excessive expansion of the hearts of the people and the army in the country! Let them realize that they are far behind us in the Song Dynasty. Regardless of military, strategy, or even economics, Food and grass, they are far from rivals."

"In a short period of time, the Northern Han Dynasty will be unable to revive, and will take recuperation and recuperation as its main strategy in the next few years. As for the Khitan and Liao Kingdom, although they once had dissent, after the disastrous defeat of the Northern Han Army, they will be honest for a while. Don’t dare to challenge my great Song Dynasty!”

These words were not unreasonable, and given his identity, since he spoke, others did not dare to answer.

Zhao Guangyi continued, "Actually, I feel that we can take this opportunity to try to win over the Liao Kingdom and deal with the Northern Han Dynasty together. Or, simply turn our attention to Dali in the southwest, see Dali calm down, and completely open up all the channels in the south of our Song Dynasty."

"In this way, King Qi's ambition to go to Nanyang and make money to fill the treasury can be realized faster."

Zhao Dezhao nodded repeatedly after hearing this.

These words should be regarded as King Jin's repayment for his training of Zhao Yuanzuo.

Seeing that his son also recognized King Jin's words, Zhao Kuangyin agreed.

"Draw up the decree! Zhao Yuanzuo returns to the court after victory, and Lieutenant Gao continues to garrison Weizhou!"

After finishing speaking, Zhao Kuangyin announced the end of today's court meeting.

However, he kept Zhao Dezhao, and wanted to discuss with him about building a ship to go to Nanyang, and the emptiness of the national treasury.

All the ministers left the court one after another.

Zhao Guangyi was extremely unhappy.

This has been two or three times in a row, and the emperor left Zhao Dezhao to discuss important matters with him.
