Since ancient times, talented people have been born in the Red Chamber

Chapter 660 Could it be that you have thought of some good strategy? (first update)
Chapter 669

Nowadays, it can be regarded as Xixia's weakest time. There was a saying in ancient times, taking advantage of his illness to kill him. At this time, Zhao Xu always felt that he had seen a glimmer of hope that he had never had before.

That is the dream of all the emperors since the founding of the Song Dynasty: to pacify Xixia and regain the homeland of China.Bringing the vast territory of thousands of miles back into the embrace of the Great Song Dynasty, the Great Song Dynasty was able to open up the Silk Road in the Western Regions, and also obtained the hope of raising horses that stretched thousands of miles.

At that time, the balance of strength between the Song Dynasty and the Northern Liao Dynasty will suddenly reverse.The Song Dynasty is now rich enough, but it lacks the large mobile assault force that it had during the Han and Tang Dynasties: cavalry.

This made it difficult for the Song army to chase and defeat the enemy even after a big victory. Instead, they were often harassed by the enemy cavalry, and sometimes even turned victory into defeat because of this.

And if Xixia can be wiped out and the land for raising horses thousands of miles away, Da Song can at least get tens of thousands of good horses every year. With Da Song's rich financial and material resources, if he wants to organize an elite cavalry that is not inferior to Han and Tang, it will not be difficult. is a dream.

"Your worry is indeed somewhat justified. Wang Wushan is really in the limelight, but a great talent like him, a pillar of the country, I am afraid that no matter where he is placed, he will not be able to cover up his brilliance." After listening Gao Taotao nodded in agreement with Zhao Xu's analysis.

"Besides, after hearing your analysis from the official family, the Ai family is really curious. It has only been less than half a year, and the strength comparison between the Song Dynasty and Xixia has been turned upside down because of this. I really want to see if the king Wu Shan continues to stay on Shaanxi Road, will it..."

Gao Taotao also had the same expectations as Zhao Xu in his heart. Although Wang Wushan was not the chief officer in the previous battles, his influence, or in every battle, cannot make you ignore his existence. .

It is precisely because of his existence that Da Song has won great victories one after another.Therefore, if he is really allowed to stay there, maybe there will be more surprises.

Seeing that Gao Taotao agreed with his point of view, Zhao Xu heaved a sigh of relief, and then explained the reason for his headache. "But now he is already the magistrate of Huanzhou, and the appeasement envoy of Shaanxi Road Economic Strategy is the minister of the frontier. If you do, you will be criticized by the government and the public."

"However, if Wang Wushan is allowed to move to another place, my grandson will not be reconciled." This is true. Seeing the existence of Wang Wushan, the lucky star of the Song Dynasty, and the success of the Song Dynasty, if he leaves , maybe luck is not on Da Song's side, so what to do.

Maybe the hope that could have appeared suddenly shattered, this is the last thing Zhao Xu wants to see.

"Your Majesty, don't worry, let the Ai family think about it carefully... Now, that king Wushan has become the founding lord of Jiuyuan County from the third rank, the Longtuge is waiting to be made, and the governor of Huanzhou."

"If you want to move up further...you have to stay on Shaanxi Road." Gao Taotao couldn't help but frowned, the difficulty is really not small.

Zhao Xu looked helplessly at Gao Taotao who had been in charge of the government for many years. Right now, only the emperor's grandmother could give him suitable and sincere advice.

If it were those ministers, hehe... At least in Zhao Xu's eyes, among the civil and military courts, it was very difficult to find a minister who was truly selfless and only dedicated to the Song court.

Over the past few days, not to mention the old parties that are now entrenched in the court, even those new parties that were previously relegated to remote places have expressed their loyalty immediately.

Then I hope that His Majesty will let them return to the court soon, serve the Song Dynasty, and aspire to create a magnificent new era with the pro-government emperor.

Although the words of one and two are more beautiful than the singing, if the young emperor Zhao Xu who has never met Wang Wushan, maybe he will return the edicts of these courtiers to the court at the first time, and then send them to the court. Those old parties in the court were relegated from Beijing one after another.

Then these new parties suppress and persecute the old parties, and finally, the court has completely become a battlefield for political power. No one cares about the rise and fall of the country and society, and they care more about the power in their hands.

And in the long-term relationship with Wang Yang, it has to be said that Wang Yang, with his superb lips, brainwashed Zhao Xu, the young emperor, quite successfully.

At least he praised the young emperor extremely well, and it also made Zhao Xu realize that the emperor should not obviously stand in line, but should maintain the greatest degree of neutrality, and use an objective attitude to examine the courtiers.

Instead of arbitrarily promoting and relegating ministers because of their own likes and dislikes, this will only make those ministers and workers focus on how to please the emperor, rather than how to do their own work well and serve the Song Dynasty. More prosperous and powerful.

If other people talked about such a topic with Zhao Xu, I am afraid that this young emperor with the typical rebellious psychology of young people would not listen at all.

However, Wang Yang has already relied on his talent and personal charm, and he and Zhao Xu have become confidantes who can talk at night by candlelight and sleep with their feet.Of course, they didn't really pay enough, after all, these two goods are pure men and real men's cancer.

Therefore, Zhao Xu could use a calm attitude to deal with the changes in courtiers after he came to power, and also considered that the sudden promotion and demotion of new party members would inevitably become a counterattack by the old party and a counterattack by the new party.

In this way, Zhao Xu is really worried that this will prevent the court from focusing all its attention on Shaanxi Road. At that time, I am afraid that it will not be able to provide sufficient support to the border troops and the Forbidden Army on Shaanxi Road. .

For the dreams of the former emperors since the founding of the Song Dynasty, for the restoration of the old land of the Han and Tang Dynasties, and for the sake of letting the world know that I, Zhao Xu, is definitely the most outstanding and wise monarch since the founding of the Song Dynasty.

Therefore, Zhao Xu suppressed many of his inner impulses, maintained the stability of the court, and continued to provide Shaanxi Road with sufficient human and material support.

"If Wang Wushan stays there, it won't be difficult." At the moment when Zhao Xu was full of thoughts, Gao Taotao, who had been thinking for a long time, finally let out a long breath and showed a relieved smile.

"Grandmother, could it be that you have thought of some good strategy?" Zhao Xu couldn't help looking at Gao Taotao who looked like he was holding the wisdom pearl, and asked impatiently.

And the hands of Emperor Meng, who was massaging Gao Taotao's shoulders, couldn't help but pause.I was very curious in my heart, wondering what kind of good strategy the Empress Dowager could come up with to get the best of both worlds.
