I became the son of Renzong

However, after a year of planning, the court of the Northern Liao Dynasty finally grasped the movement of the scattered rebels and assembled a large army to annihilate them.

The same fact, interpreted from different angles, will have different understandings.What the truth is is not important.

Chapter 916 Blocking the last road

The greatest role of public opinion is to influence the trend of followers.The biggest disadvantage of public opinion is that it can completely drown out the truth.

At the same time, public opinion can also influence some things...

The Song Dynasty has never lacked saints who are compassionate and compassionate, and there is no shortage of saints and gentlemen who respect the kingly way.Just after these tear-jerking letters were published, there were more tear-jerking articles than those letters in the entire Bianliang report...

The article starts with the words of the sages and ends with the awakening of the rebels in the Northern Liao Dynasty. There are too many sincere but obscure rhetoric in the middle. , and Da Song should express something.

Immediately afterwards, those so-called reports with official background or channels appeared letters again.These letters were all entered from the border villages and border towns of the Song Dynasty, and they were all letters from rebel soldiers.

Some miss their wives and children, some yearn for an ordinary life, and some even directly express their submission to the Song Dynasty.

What's more, there are some soldiers who have received letters from their wives and children, but after the soldiers and soldiers have been killed by the Northern Liao court, their colleagues replied instead.

Even the letter to say goodbye to his wife and children by letter after hearing that the Northern Liao court sent troops to encircle and suppress them recently appeared in the newspaper...

No doubt, no need to ask for pictures and truth.

At the same time that these letters were published in the newspaper, Bianliang, and even the entire Gyeonggi Province, in Lifang, where the fugitives from the Northern Liao Dynasty were resettled, and the relevant yamen of the imperial court, began to dispatch officials with letters from the distant places of the Northern Liao Dynasty and Sincerely, visit the family members of the Beiliao rebels who have lost or are about to lose their loved ones one by one...

The Northern Liao Dynasty was ruthless and the Song Dynasty was affectionate, no matter whether it was allegiance or not.

The imperial court is the imperial court, soldiers are soldiers, none of which can change those real hard-working people!

Perhaps there will be some doubts about the articles published in the newspaper, but in Bianliang, in Gyeonggi-do, there are some who speak out.

It doesn't matter what the truth is, for the families of the rebels, it is true that life has improved.They have a house to live in, so they don't have to move around anymore; their children can go to a school, so they don't have to envy the life of Song Dynasty forever; even women, the court has arranged a job, so they don't have to worry about living.

Even, the imperial court of the Great Song Dynasty rewarded those rebels of the Great Song Dynasty who sincerely surrendered to them according to the rewards of the Fanqi soldiers...

All these are facts, irrefutable facts.

Originally, since the family members entered the Great Song Dynasty at the beginning, let these family members accept the wording of separation, which was the Hedong contract between the Great Song Dynasty and the Northern Liao court, and this is the truth that these family members knew.

Originally there was hope, whether it was absconding and changing identity to enter the country, or finally making contributions to the Song Dynasty, the goal of the final reunion would be achieved.

But now, when the army of the Northern Liao Dynasty is encircling and suppressing, all hopes will come to naught.Therefore, the emotions of these families are also real.

The articles published in the newspaper have all been confirmed by word of mouth in the neighbors... This is the fact.

Even Neiyuan...

"Third brother, is this the truth?"

The queen doesn't get involved in government affairs, but it still depends on the report.In the Inner Garden, you can find out by checking in.During this period of time, matters concerning the rebels and their families in the Northern Liao Dynasty were considered a hot topic in the entire Song Dynasty.

The queen also inevitably has some concerns.However, Empress Gao is not an ordinary person, so she can somehow imagine that there is something tricky behind this.

"Tao Niang thinks it is, so it is."

Things were progressing according to the plan, and Zhao Xi was indeed in a happy mood.

Speaking of this, Tao Niang stopped asking.She could feel the essence of the matter from the mood of the officials.

"Actually, it doesn't matter what the truth is, what matters is whether it is beneficial to Da Song. If it is beneficial, this is the truth. If it is not beneficial, then find the beneficial truth!"

Zhao Xi was very relieved, really relieved.The selection of this cabinet is not a pedantic cabinet, they all know how to adapt, or in other words, there are more villains in this cabinet than gentlemen.

However, he is quite satisfied that the cabinet can operate this matter to such an extent.

Zhang Dun has no taboos, Lu Huiqing is scheming, Su Zhe's judgment of the overall situation, Han Zhen's cautiousness, Su Song and Xue Xiang's concentration, etc., but he did not expect that Wang Anshi was also in the face of the interests of Song Dynasty, completely letting go of the things in his heart. Kind of stubborn.

Well, that's what politicians are supposed to do.A gentleman is a writer, but a politician is not good.

The promotion of the matter is one after another. When the whole country set off an upsurge of sympathy for the Yelv Yixin rebels, the court sent envoys with great fanfare to deal with the Northern Liao Dynasty and negotiate with the Northern Liao court for those rebels to submit to the Great Army. Song, and the way to lead to Da Song...

There has never been a mission with such momentum as it is now.

The imperial court intends to start from the Palace of Qinzheng and march towards the north gate of Bianliang with regular mission regulations...

But the people of Bianliang are seeing off with real emotion.

"Poor orphans and widows!"

"Heaven has eyes, and there will be no such cruel tragedy in this world..."

The common people or scholars are all spontaneously seeing off, hoping that the imperial court can successfully mediate and make the happiness in their hearts come true.

······

"Your Majesty, the Great Song court has exerted its strength. The people in the Great Song Dynasty are excited, and they are full of anger at what happened to us. They prompted the Great Song court to send envoys to the north to mediate with the Liao court about our rescue..."

The deputy general rushed in happily.Fleeing and fighting, Yelv Yixin always got the news one step later.

And the encirclement and suppression army of the Daliao court has already launched. Within a radius of hundreds of miles, there are formed Northern Liao court cavalry everywhere. The encirclement is getting tighter and tighter, and the chance of escaping is getting slimmer and slimmer. up.

"Tell me in detail..."

Yelv Yixin didn't want to die like this if he had a chance to live.

The lieutenant general told Yelu Yixin with great excitement the news he couldn't hear.Starting from the article on the arrival of Bianliang in the Song Dynasty, the letters, the solidarity of the scholars, the condolences of the Song Dynasty court and the mediation of envoys, etc., have been described in detail...

"I'll wait for my life!"

After listening to all the narrations, Yelu Yixin let out a violent shout, and at that moment, he almost fainted from anger.

"Zhao Xi is ruthless! I will die!"

Yelv Yixin collected himself, but these words still came out of his mouth.

"By doing this, the Song State will only strengthen Daliao's determination to encircle and annihilate us. We should do so quickly and leave no room for encirclement and annihilation!"

"King..."

The lieutenant general didn't seem to understand.

"Originally we accepted the support of the Song State, it was behind the scenes, even if we resettled our family members, there were words. But now, we are rebelling, it is just a chaos within the Khitan ethnic group. When we are supported by the Song State When everything is exposed to the world, if I wait in Daliao, everyone will call for beating."

"It's over. This Zhao Xi didn't give me a chance at all, let alone betraying the water again, even my chance to escape to the north was blocked. He Zhao Xi is ruthless!"

Chapter 917 No Choice

Yelu Yixin had been in the court, he was not a simple warrior, on the contrary, he was more inclined to strategy.
