Chapter 1505 The Emperors and Ministers of the Great Song Dynasty in a Dilemma (Second Change)

Chapter 1514

The emperor agreed to the decision made by the six people who had spent a night discussing, and agreed to transfer [-] troops from the frontier army that was at odds with Beiliao to go directly to Jinzhou along the coast to help defend Liaodong.

Then, [-] banned troops were transferred from Bianliang, Tokyo to Liaodong to help out. In this way, the frontier army could arrive in Liaodong before the Northern Liaoxing army invaded Liaodong.

No matter how unbearable the frontier army is, it can still be used to defend the city anyway. As for the [-] forbidden troops rushing to Liaodong, it is very necessary. As far as the various tribes are concerned, no one can guarantee when they will attack Da Song.

Now the strength of the Song Dynasty in Liaodong, even after adding the [-] frontier troops, at most it can only take a defensive position, and wait until the [-] forbidden troops arrive before continuing to expand outwards. Just to hold on to the current fruits of victory, you can also reach out to those places that are still in the remnant army of the Northern Liao Dynasty.

Even the emperor decided to send another [-] Yuanyou Shenwei cannons to help Liaodong.The ministers who had already understood the sharpness of Yuanyou's divine power could not help but be moved with joy, deeply convinced.

The subsequent arrival of the Forbidden Army and the hundred Yuanyou Shenwei Cannons will greatly boost the morale of the Liaodong Army of the Great Song Dynasty.

"However, I think that apart from the countermeasures taken by the Liaodong side, we must not forget the previous purpose." Seeing that a group of people were busy discussing the Liaodong side's war strategy, Wang Yang couldn't help but feel a little bit pained. Come on, have these guys forgotten what their original purpose was?
"The previous purpose? Wang Wushan, you mean to accept Yelu Yujian, to seek the land of Liaodong as a supplement, and to seek the North Liaohe River as the main route, right?"

Su Dongpo smiled at Wang Yang. "But now, Yeluyu sees that the benefits brought by the surrender are too great. It is so big that I, Song Dynasty, can hardly swallow it without all my strength. At this time, it would be unwise to seek the Hedong Road again."

"Old Xianggong's words are wrong. Yeluyu saw that he surrendered to our Great Song Dynasty, which added thousands of miles of mountains and rivers to our Great Song Dynasty. Fang. And the land of Hedong Road must be ignored even more."

"If you don't take this opportunity, get in touch with Xiao Shen, try to persuade Xiao Shen, and seek the way of Hedong. Do you have to wait for the end of the Liao Kingdom and my Great Song's dispute in Liao?" Wang Yang's face turned dark immediately. up.

In his opinion, this was definitely an excellent opportunity. The Northern Liao-Tokyo Road was almost completely lost, and Jinzhou, which controlled the Western Liao Corridor, also fell into the control of the Song Dynasty, which would inevitably shock the Liao government and the public.

Facing the claws of the Song State that has invaded the Zhongjing Road, the emperor of the Northern Liao Dynasty, Yelu Yanxi, no matter how stupid he is, he definitely understands that if the lost land cannot be regained, then the Northern Liao Dynasty will inevitably decline, and the morale of the army and the people will also be destroyed. plummeted.

At that time, Beiliao will probably change from being able to maintain an advantage in the stalemate with Song Dynasty in the past to a disadvantage that can only be passively defended.

Therefore, Beiliao will definitely mobilize the whole country, and the Hedong Road, which has been silent for a while, may also be mobilized to help.

Coupled with the fact that Xiao Shen, the head of the Hedong Road, is the internal response of the Song Dynasty, even if Xiao Shen can't bring more surprises to the Song Dynasty like Nayelu Yuyu saw.

But at least there is no problem in planning to seize the southern part of the east channel of the Bei Liao River. If by any chance we can go one step further and seize both sides of the river and the Hetao area, we can completely separate Bei Liao from Xixia.

Well, Xixia, who is already extremely weak now, without the assistance of Beiliao, facing the three-sided encirclement and suppression of Song Dynasty, it is like a whole animal that has been slaughtered and bled, put it in a stuffy furnace and roasted deliciously, waiting The roasted whole lamb served is so tempting.

The Son of Heaven was also a little troubled now, looking at the huge map that Ma Shang spread out, one side was Dongdong Road in Beiliao, and the other was East Road in Beiliao.

It's like two huge pieces of fat, one has already been eaten into his mouth, but it's too big, so he needs to concentrate on it, but the other piece of fat, the emperor doesn't want to give up, after all, that piece of fat...

No, if he swallowed the fatty meat of Hedong Road, the big fat sheep next to him, which couldn't even be eaten in his mouth, would also become Da Song's meal.

"Sigh... Unexpectedly, I, Song Dynasty, would have such a day, not because I was worried about the border troubles, but because I was worried about how to get those great rivers and mountains into my pocket."

Hearing such distressed voice from the Son of Heaven, all the ministers couldn't help smiling, but soon frowned and began to think hard.

After listening to Wang Yang's words, they were not moved. Yes, it was obvious that the Song Dynasty could talk about the fat meat and fat sheep in their stomachs, so why did they have to let go?

However, Da Song only has one mouth and two hands, and it is too difficult to take it down in one go.

A group of people have been thinking hard for a long time, but the land of Liaodong has already reached their mouths, which means that the arrow is on the string and has to be launched, but they just can't let go of the other piece of fat meat and big fat sheep.

What the hell, after all, it was Wang Yang who made the noise.

Everyone cast their resentful gazes on Wang Yang, making Wang Yang's hair stand on end and his scalp tingle. "Let me tell you, what do you want to do?"

"Wang Wushan, you said that you have so many things to do, and now, in the Song Dynasty, it is really difficult for me to take care of both places." Su Dongpo smiled wryly at Wang Yang.

#####
Wang Yang ignored Su Dongpo and others' presentation of facts and reasoning. He didn't understand these, but he knew very well that now was an excellent opportunity for the Song Dynasty to pacify Xixia.

"Your Majesty, please listen to my humble minister. Li Qianshun, the lord of the Western Xia Dynasty, is by no means a kind person. Although he was at the mercy of his ministers and workers when he first came to the court, causing chaos in the country, but this person has always had a tenacious temperament, and he can correct his mistakes."

"Nowadays, although the national power of Xixia has not recovered, the power of the various ministries in the Xixia court has been declining. Li Qianshun has already monopolized the power, focusing on farming and mulberry affairs, and plundering the surrounding cities and states, gathering the population, and gradually regaining his power."

"If we take a longer period of time and wait for the Western Xia monarchs and ministers to be united, there will be troubles in the northwest, and the land in the northwest of my Song Dynasty has finally become prosperous. If it is disturbed by Xixia, it will be tantamount to wasting all previous efforts."

"Your Majesty! This minister is very clear about the current predicament of the Great Song Dynasty. Therefore, I don't ask for anything else. I just hope that your Majesty will allow you to lead a small number of elites to the northwest and attack the Hedong Road in the Northern Liao Dynasty."

"If the East Road is obtained, then with the combat power of our Northwest Frontier Army in the Great Song Dynasty, it is enough to pacify Xixia and restore the old land. Our Great Song Dynasty will no longer have the troubles in the Northwest, and the old silk road in the Western Regions will be smooth...

Wang Yang spoke eloquently, the emperor Zhao Xu and others were also listening to each other, and they were in a dilemma. It was really a dilemma.

"Wang Wushan, you have a heart to serve the country, I know it well, but this matter..." Emperor Zhao Xu walked up to Wang Yang and patted his shoulder and said earnestly.
