Chapter 902 Are you talking about that old guy named Wu? (Second more)

Chapter 911

"So I ask your Majesty to tell the truth to the emperor of Liao Kingdom no matter what. I, Daxia, really cannot afford such a huge expenditure..." The Minister of the Household Department in front of me almost cried and said such words .

"I don't know, but gentlemen, it's hard for me too..." Li Ganshun, the lord of Xixia, had a bitter smile all over his face. "Haven't you seen the letter of credence given to me by the emperor of the Liao Kingdom?"

"I've tried my best and even used the internal treasury, but it's impossible to supply more than half a million troops."

"So, the emperor of the Liao Kingdom asked me to exchange the land for the support of the Liao Kingdom's grain, grass and supplies." Speaking of this, Li Qianshun couldn't help coughing a few times.

"Since the founding of my country, my Great Xia has always been the only one who conquered cities and plundered land. How can I give my territory to other countries with both hands?"

"But Your Majesty, this is an extraordinary time. If it is not the case, Daliao will be furious and withdraw his troops. At that time, the hundreds of thousands of Song troops gathered on Shaanxi Road will definitely not want to return empty-handed. Come on, I, Daxia, may be caught in military disaster again..." Chen Wangwei Ming Yedang prostrated himself on the ground, shouting loudly at Li Ganshun, the lord who was much younger than himself.

His face was full of regret and sadness, but his heart was full of anticipation, hoping that Li Qianshun would agree quickly. As long as he agreed, his reputation would definitely be ruined.

At that time, with the support of many clans, maybe it is really possible to take this opportunity to drive this impure Xixia king from power.

"Let me think about it again, let me think about it again and see if there is any other way to solve it." Li Qianshun hesitated for a long time, and finally shook his head and rejected Wei Ming Yedang's proposal.

After all, he is the lord of Xixia, and he also deeply understands that once he really makes such a decision, the consequences will be very dire.

After the court meeting dispersed, Li Qianshun paced anxiously in the main hall, and it was really difficult to express the boredom in his heart.Now, no matter how he chooses this multiple-choice question thrown to him by the Emperor of Liao, he seems to be the loser.

But I don't seem to have a third way to go. After all, the strength of Xixia, which has been hit hard, is too weak compared with Liao and Song.

He no longer had the toughness and courage to say no to him in the past. Now that Li Qianshun really dared to say no, it is very likely that the willful emperor of Liao Kingdom could really do such a thing as withdrawing troops.

At that time, facing the hundreds of thousands of Song troops who were sharpening their knives, Xixia could find no other way out except for destroying the country and destroying the family and fleeing to the grassland.

Even if it is far away from the grassland, is it safe?For more than a hundred years since the founding of Xixia, the oppression of many neighboring countries and tribes has made those guys gnash their teeth.

If Xixia is hit hard again, and there is a powerful country willing to support it, I am afraid that Xixia who fled to the grassland will be attacked by those tribes and tribes who have long held grudges, like a pack of wolves Come here and tear it to pieces.

Three to five years later, the only ones who can remember the name of Xixia are those party members who are struggling to survive, and those who are broken...

Thinking about this, Li Qianshun couldn't help but burst into tears. Could it be that the Great Xia Dynasty is really about to be destroyed in his own hands?
#####
At this time, the confidant eunuch beside him saw that the young emperor was not weak yet, but every day his young face was wrinkled like a 70-[-]-year-old man, and he was very worried.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty..." In the end, the confidant eunuch couldn't bear it anymore and fell down on the floor.

"Mingshun, why are you doing this? Get up quickly, and if you have anything to say, just say it." Li Qianshun was taken aback, and quickly walked up to this confidant eunuch who had been with him since he was a child and watched him grow up. He reached out and helped him up.

"Your Majesty, this old slave has seen that you have spent more than a month without thinking about eating and drinking every day for the sake of my country. You have not lost your crown yet, and now you have already grown silver hairs on your temples. This old slave hates you, but it is a pity that this old slave He's just a useless slave who can't share His Majesty's worries..." Ming Shun, who was over fifty years old, said with tears in his eyes.

"Okay, okay, I understand your thoughts very well, and I don't want to work so hard, but I have no one in Daxia..." Li Qianshun patted Mingshun on the shoulder, his face weakened and authentic.

At this moment, he felt extremely helpless and lonely. In the civil and military circles, many people had their own ulterior motives. How could he not know, but what could be done if he was clear. In this extraordinary period, everything depends on stability.

Therefore, even if he knew the dirty thoughts of those guys, Li Qianshun, the lord of Xixia, had to swallow his anger, and even made concessions to the powerful people of the various clans, hoping to support the difficult days in the past.

But those guys are pressing forward step by step, and now, the emperor of Liao Kingdom is completely enraged because of the failure of the battle of Yuzhou, but the problem is that the main force is your soldiers and horses from Liao Kingdom, and the coach is still outside the city of Yuzhou. The guard of the army is also from your Liao Kingdom.

If you lose the battle, why don't you bother those guys, and use the excuse of increasing troops, and let me, Daxia, support the food and grass of these hundreds of thousands of troops, this is definitely a posture that will push Xixia to a dead end.

Another option given by the other party is to exchange land for food. The question is, what kind of land is used?The eastern part of the northern Hetao area is used.

The Hetao area is definitely the foundation of the Great Xia Kingdom, and now, the Liao Kingdom actually wants to take this opportunity to cut it away. If you want to agree, yes, then your Xia Kingdom needs to afford the food and grass for the more than [-] troops. luggage.

In today's big summer, it really can't afford it.Even if it is done like killing a chicken and picking eggs, how long can it last?I'm afraid that if the war doesn't end, I, the son of a great summer, will die under the knives of those courtiers who have hollowed out their families.

Li Qianshun sighed with a sigh on his face. "It's a pity that Zhongshuling is not here. Otherwise, with Zhongshuling's resourcefulness, there should be a way to solve the immediate crisis..."

Looking at the lord who sat down slumped, Ming Shun rolled his eyes, and after thinking about it for a long time, he prostrated himself in front of the steps again. "Your Majesty, although Zhongshu Ling is thousands of miles away, there is another one in the court..."

Li Qianshun was stunned for a moment, but when he saw Mingshun's hesitant expression, his face darkened. "Are you talking about that old guy named Wu?"

"Your Majesty, this old servant knows that you are still very angry with him, but the old general named Ah Wu is after all a rare resourceful talent in my Great Xia. In the past, it was the two adults named Ah Wu and Ren Duo Zongbao. His great support enabled His Majesty to overcome all opinions and take charge of the government smoothly."

"From this, we can know that Wei Mingwu is loyal to His Majesty and to my Great Xia. The important thing is that there are many people with different ambitions in the center of the court. These people have their own calculations. They are really willing to How many people can be considered for my Great Xia and His Majesty?"
