I became the son of Renzong

"The compression of the encirclement, the pressing step by step, and those who do not resist will not attack. At this stage, it is the best strategy. It is to show the party members what to do..."

It may be that my emotions have affected the judgment of the cabinet members, and it is reasonable to say that this truth can be understood.Are you that scary?So that the cabinet ministers lost the ability to think?

"The official order is to accept the surrender?"

"What else? Do you really want me to bear the reputation of a bloodthirsty king?"

Victory, about to win, some small emotions did not affect the joy in Zhao Xi's heart, it was not that serious.

Chapter 736 A Party Member Who Never Gives Up

To say that Zhao Xi's few words made the cabinet ministers ashamed, and when the imperial edict arrived at the front, it would be like reprimanding the various coaches...

What is known?What's so good about it?At the end of the war, such a passive combat was actually recognized by the court?how is this possible?

Whether the battle is fierce or not, anyway, the inner turmoil of the various coaches is quite intense; whether the battles are frequent, anyway, the coaches from all walks of life are discussing more and more frequently.

Another discussion, this time not only the chief and deputy commanders, but also the generals were called together.The original intention, it should be to encourage everyone, so that everyone should not be so negative... If you have to kill, you have to kill!

The model of the combat staff and the frontline headquarters is a model of sharing risks. For the various coaches, although the credit is divided, the responsibility is also divided.Especially for the coaches who came from the time of the first emperor, credit does not matter, what is really afraid of is responsibility.

When it is impossible to figure out whether to punish or agree with such an edict that the imperial court cannot understand, it is even more hoped that they can jointly shoulder this responsibility.

"If it doesn't work, kill it!"

Gao Zunyu had been besieged by the Xixia people for so long, fighting each other most frequently, with the most casualties on both sides.Under the absolute advantage, he didn't think he couldn't just kill him like this.

"The imperial court agrees with the current strategy of suppressing the enemy on the front line..."

Wang Shao has always pursued a gentle strategy of opening borders, so he does not think that there is any ambiguity in the imperial edict.

"How to kill in the past? What kind of standards should be set? The party has millions of people..."

"After the formation of the siege, the intensity of the fighting has been reduced and the casualties on both sides have been reduced. Once the decision is made to kill them, it will definitely arouse the intention of the party members to break the boat..."

"If things go on like this, it is inappropriate for the imperial court to stay in the frontier for a long time with hundreds of thousands of elites. Besides, it is difficult for the imperial court to maintain the consumption of money and food for the war..."

Di Qing kept silent, or in other words, apart from tactical deployment, Di Qing rarely participated in other matters.But Di Qing himself was a little confused about this matter.

The goal of the imperial court is to wipe out Xixia. Di Qing also believes that the ultimate goal of the officials cannot be abandoned halfway after years of contacts with the officials.

As for worrying about the fact that the army is out and the court is worried, Di Qing doesn't take it seriously, he still understands the officials.But just like this stalemate with the Xixia people... Just as Wen Zuoshuai considered, it is impossible for the imperial court to support the war ahead without limit.

Peace?Di Qing suddenly had this idea in his mind.Of course, when one's own side has an absolute advantage, it will definitely not be the first consideration to negotiate a peace.

"Masters, the general thinks that the imperial court's approval of the current strategy is not the same as passive combat..."

All the chief and deputy commanders, including Wen Zuoshuai, were discussing with the headquarters, and Zhong Jianzhong also made suggestions.

"tell me the story."

"The official family is not a bloodthirsty king. On the contrary, the official family respects the way of sages and sages, but the official family's philosophy is the kingly way after domineering. Just like Wang Shuai's practice of opening borders, there is suppression and comfort."

"Not to mention the more than 300 million people in the party, but the 50 people who control the party. It is unrealistic to wipe them all out. The general thinks that what the court said is good means that it agrees with the current strategy on the front line, not the intensity of the battle. "

"These two points are not contradictory. The siege and the strategy of encircling but not annihilating is to create a situation where the Xixia people are fighting with beasts, so that they can understand the situation. However, the reduction in the intensity of the fighting will lead to delusions among the party members."

"The general thought that the imperial court's edict referred to the strategy of encircling the front line but not destroying it. The oppressive fighting intensity forced the Xingqing government to make a choice. There was a joke among the officials that they called handing in their guns and not killing them." , now the imperial court's intention may be to let the front line create a situation where the Xingqing government will surrender their guns and not kill them."

It seems contradictory to encircle but not destroy and maintain the intensity of the fighting, but what Zhong Jianzhong said seems quite reasonable.

The goal of this war is to wipe out Xixia. In fact, with the current superiority of the country's military equipment, the direct crushing advance can completely wipe out Xixia.

The officials planned such a big situation to form the current siege of Xingqing Mansion. It seems that they have considered the method of destroying Xixia from the very beginning.

"The established goal has the power to wipe out the party members. If it is just to build momentum, how to achieve this goal?"

"Eliminating the vital forces of the party members is not the only way to annihilate. Just like the government has been promoting the removal of the original Imperial Army, it does not mean that all the Imperial Army will be disarmed and returned to the field. They can be transferred to craftsmen, orbital soldiers, engineers, etc. .”

"There are 30 Xixia people in reserve, and 50 string-controlling people. As long as there is no royal family in Xixia, and there is no object of allegiance, let the string-controlling people be herdsmen forever..."

This is no longer what the general in front should consider, but what Wang Shao said should indeed be right.What officials have done over the years has confirmed this approach.

Since it's not punishment and reprimand, everyone will feel relaxed when discussing matters.In the end, the forward headquarters formulated a strategy of advancing in turn and pressing step by step, and reported to the court...

Xingqing government sent envoys.

After drawing up the strategy on the front line, under the intense fighting, the Xixia people sent envoys to negotiate a peace after only two days. It is estimated that the report from the front has not yet reached the court.

"armistice?"

After the Xixia envoys passed by, the generals in front discussed matters again.

"Let's stop the war. According to the usual practice, when one party proposes a peace, the war means that it has stopped. But the old man thinks that we should stay vigilant. The party members may not stop here. It is very likely that the war will not end."

The origin of Xixia is known to the generals who have fought against Xixia for many years.Now under the absolute advantage, the imperial court will definitely not be like Li Jipeng's internal surrender again.

really······

"Accept the imperial court's reward, keep the Xingqing and Yinxia areas, and let the party members govern themselves? Or hereditary? How dare you think!"

"Dangxiang people still don't give up. They don't even mention whether the country name will be revoked. Could it be that the imperial court still allows the title of Xixia?"

"Shepherding sheep for the Great Song Dynasty? You will take advantage of the loopholes and use them to raise sheep and let the country provide for them, so you can recharge your energy?"

Xixia did send envoys, but the sincerity of surrender made the court a little speechless.Obviously, the Xingqing Mansion hopes to return to the model of Li Jiqian's era, and become the Jimi Prefecture of the Song Dynasty... Such an obvious idea of ​​​​looking at the future market, really thinks that the Song Dynasty Hall is a bunch of idiots?

"Let them go back..."

Zhao Xi glanced at it casually, and directly handed Xixia's so-called letter of credence to the cabinet.From the title of the credential, it is also clear that party members do not give up.

"It seems that kindness is wrong, and it still doesn't hurt! The front line must be pushed forward for fifty miles within three days. All enemies encountered must be wiped out at any cost!"

Chapter 737 Treating Differently

This was not something that could be accomplished overnight.

People always have some illusions, and Zhao Xi didn't expect that with the current situation, Xingqing Mansion would be completely down.

In fact, the war has reached the present, and Xixia's strength has not been greatly lost, or it is only injured, not to the point of dying.

The strategic intention of the Song Dynasty was to suppress all sides and blossom in the center. In fact, only the Xixia garrison in the Hexi Corridor, the Weifu Army Division in Heishan, and the Yan Army Division in Heishui Town were really annihilated by the imperial army.In terms of battle damage, it was less than [-]% of Xixia's.

This is also the basis for the people of Xixia to dare to dream... I still don't want to be cruel!

If it weren't for the unrest within the Xingqing Mansion, I'm afraid that the Xingqing Mansion would not even propose a peace now.

It is advisable to chase the poor with the remaining courage, not to be known as the overlord... Zhao Xi suddenly remembered this poem, and wrote it on the desk solemnly...
