Chapter 718 Comrade Xiao Guanhai
Lao Cai even thought about resigning from the court at the moment and letting others deal with this business. Unfortunately, he didn't have the courage, because he had missed the opportunity to resign. When Gao Fangping just won the battle between Song Xia, he resigned, which was called retirement after he was successful and not authoritarian. He could still seek a comeback.
However, if you resign now, it means that you give up in the face of difficulties, have a bad reputation, and offend the emperor, and you will basically have no hope of making a comeback.
Xiao's inner slight looked up at Cai Jing, followed the Song official, raised the wine bowl and took a sip and said, "It's not a formal negotiation now, but I was curious. How do you plan to end Gao Fangping's actions this time?"
When others want to answer, Cai Jing spoke in advance to prevent others from getting hurt by answering wrongly.
"My Song kid Meng Lang is ignorant, which makes everyone embarrassed." Cai Jing's virtue is just like this, but he is talking nonsense on the surface, and he is still practicing Tai Chi.
Xiao's inner bottom looked so happy, pointing at Cai Jing and laughed: "You Han people are cunning. If you can't control your commanders, there will be only two results in the end. One is that Gao Fangping's troops are defeated in Xixia, which is a punishment that you don't know how to accept when you see it. The other is that his luck continues to be good. Xixia has no choice but to make achievements, but on the contrary, it will anger my Great Liao. If our emperor feels the insincerity and ambition of Song State and the military intervention, it will be embarrassing to everyone. What does Cai Xiang think?"
This stick threatened Da Song so directly, and everyone changed their qualities and glared at Xiao's inner bottom.
Cai Jing raised his hand to stop everyone's emotions, and smiled and said, "Please cultivate for a while before talking about it. The current mainstream view of the Song State is that after experiencing the fifth battle between Song and Xia, there will be no war in the northwest frontier for at least ten years. Since our Song State established the country, we have been restraining our military and have no ambitions. Please do not misunderstand your country."
“…”
Facing Cai Jing was always like this, Xiao's inner bottom was speechless. In short, Song people had no choice but to be so thick-skinned. No matter how heavy it was, even if Xiao's inner bottom was not able to be said for the time being, he had to wait and see. If Gao Fangping suffered a great loss in Xixia, then this negotiation would not be needed, and Xixia and Song would hurt their vitality together.
If he wins again, that is the real trick, which will embarrass the negotiations between the courts of several countries.
Thinking of this, Xiao raised the bowl and took a sip of it again, and was stunned. He realized that the wine was very different, so he asked, "What kind of wine is this? It's fishy, spicy and strong enough?"
Cai Jing smiled and said, "This is the distilled liquor studied by Gao Fangping. His secret recipe is made by my royal craftsman. It usually doesn't provide much to the powerful. It was specially prepared to serve you when you arrived."
"Haha, good wine, this is good wine, it's strong enough. Let's prepare more for the sake of the purpose." Xiao's Lide laughed...
Before he knew it, he arrived at the beginning of April. Gao Fangping Chen Bing Yaode City and looked at Xiping Prefecture from afar.
Relying on the Pule City, Mengjing, Leshan, Weizhou line to Song Dynasty, a complete logistics supply line was basically formed.
Such a front is much shorter than Chage's logistics line at the time. It also relies on the use of compressed military rations and shock-absorbing bearing convoys, and the Gaofangping Department has a very large number of cavalry maneuvers, so there is no problem in the support of the logistics line.
At present, there are Xixia Zhuoluo and the Southern Military Office far west of Gaofangping. However, that military office was afraid of being beaten by the Zhong Shidao headquarters as early as the beginning of the war. Now they are still restrained by the Zhong Shidao headquarters in the Lanzhou area and dare not move. Because once they leave the defense zone, the Xiliang Prefecture in the northwest is threatened by the Zhong family army.
The Xiangyou Army and the Jianing Army Office in the east have already been trapped and surrounded by Liu Yanqing's troops in the territory of Xiazhou.
So now Gao Fangping Chen's army is in Yaode City, and the upper part can advance to Xiping Prefecture. The west can cooperate with the Zhong Shidao headquarters to completely eat Zhuoluo Army Division, and the east can advance to Xiazhou. The east can cooperate with the Liu Yanqing army to encircle and annihilate Xiangyou and other military divisions.
This situation is not in a hurry to break. Gao Fangping wants to use this foggy situation to make Xixia messy.
According to their back moves, if one of the White Horse Strong Army and the Right Fang Army is really drawn in advance, then the tactical maneuver will be carried out west or east, and the way will be to lure them into depth. The king will be the best way to dominate and win with field battles. And it cannot be really hard to deal with their hard expenses.
"Report"
While Gao Fangping was considering it, news from the court came, and a message from the letter came into the tent: "Report to my husband, the Privy Councilor of the Liao Kingdom has entered Bianjing."
What should come will always come. Now it depends on whether the national policy led by Zhao Ji and Cai Jing can temporarily resist the envoy of the Liao Kingdom. If a few imperial edicts are really coming to retreat on the eve of the decisive battle during the strategic maneuver of our expeditionary force, it would be a mess and would greatly affect morale.
It is not to say that Gao Fangping wanted to kill many Xixia people, but now that the national war has been established, if you don’t take this opportunity to destroy the last main force of Xixia, you will be afraid of them at one time. That will not be able to achieve a stable 20 years. When the situation is inconsistent, they will start to jump again.
"It seems that our plan and deployment must be accelerated." Gao Fangping murmured.
The messenger said worriedly: "This time the Liao Kingdom came from is not an ordinary person, but a heavyweight. What he said will almost represent the national policy of the Liao Kingdom, so both Xianggong Cai and the emperor are under great pressure. If we are anxious to deploy, will the court be embarrassed by that time?"
Gao Fangping couldn't help but feel stunned and said, "Take the newspaper here and I'll read it in person to see who is coming."
He took it over and saw that it was Xiao's Liddy guy. Then Gao Fangping touched his chin and began to think.
Seeing the situation of the Great Demon King, the generals looked at each other, and they didn't know what was the smoke from the tree again?
Speaking of the imperial court's interpretation this time, Xiao's Lide was the Privy Councilor of the Northern Court of the Liao Kingdom, the Prince of Lanling, and the real noble family of the Liao Kingdom. His decision was indeed the policy of the Liao Kingdom.
However, he was the "leader of the Liao Dynasty". This person is even more foolish than Cai Jing of the Song Dynasty. The Jurchen Aguda was the leader of the army.
In the early days of history, the Liao court always disliked the Jurchen tribe, which had wrong signs. Many people advocated sending troops to wipe out the Jurchens in the early days, but it was Xiao's Lidi who opposed the public and prevented the Liao Kingdom from sending troops.
Yes, monsters like the Jin Kingdom were formed. More than 2,000 people started their business and called the Great Liao Kingdom a father. This situation was the result of the Little Deep of the Party Xiao who led the way to maintain stability.
From this point of view, Xiao's limbs are indeed the one who has the final say, but he is a super stupid official. This deal will still fall on him, Xiao Linya.
This is the case under the sun. Not only are there in the Song Dynasty, but there are not many parties leading the way in the Liao Kingdom.
The last time Tao Jiefu and his men's battle between Song and Xia, the Han people came to mediate the situation, Niu Wenshu, the Privy Councilor of the Southern Court. That time, it seemed that the pressure was not great, Niu Wenshu had limited power, and was a Han person, not so aggressive.
In fact, the last time was a ruin that was not very good. Because Lao Niu was really the minister of the Liao Kingdom. He did not accept bribes and ignored anything else. He wanted to get the benefits he deserved for his country. Therefore, the negotiations were soft and hard, and invulnerable. In the end, Zhao Ji had no choice but to order the master to return a lot of land to Xixia.
As a Han Chinese, Lao Niu was the efficiency of the Liao Kingdom. This cannot be blamed on him, but history. Brother Zhao Kuangyin was never able to bring Yan Yun back. Lao Niu was born in Yan and was born as a Liao Kingdom. In addition, the Liao Kingdom also advocated the Han rituals and Han people and valued the Han people. Then each of them was his master, Lao Niu only made profits for the Liao Kingdom. This is his mission and responsibility.
The so-called "Lin Ya" is actually the Jinshi bloodline of the Song people in the Liao Kingdom, and it is called Lin Ya.
The Liao Kingdom, which had reached this level of sinicization, basically abandoned their own nomadic culture and still focused on culture and neglected military affairs, even more serious than the ancestors of the Song Dynasty.
The traditional Khitans are barbarians, and they have no culture. They don’t like to read and practice calligraphy at heart. They only like to ride and archery. Therefore, it is very difficult for this group to take the exam for "Linya". Because of this, their Linya is even more awesome than the Jinshi of the Song Dynasty. Because things are rare, they can basically reach the peak once they have that.
It seems that Xiao Linya, who is currently on a mission in the Song Dynasty, is a person who dares to treason the country and will not die. Therefore, the important task this time will fall on him Comrade Xiao Guanhai.
The enemies of the whole world are in the first three rows.
After yy, Gao Fangping said: "Han Shizhong."
"The last one is here." Xiao Han walked out.
Gao Fangping said: "You go south to see Li Qingzhao immediately, and then go east to the capital to deal with it."
"Ah!" Han Shizhong felt depressed, "Look, it's time for us to go to Xiping Prefecture to pick up his dog on the 1st. I'm not willing to let the boy leave the battlefield at this time."
Lin Chong clasped his fists and said with a smile: "Although the bad guy is vulgar, he has many tricks and achievements on the battlefield. It is better to leave him to deal with the people of Xixia."
Gao Fangping shook his head and said, "No, Han Shizhong's mission is more important. Take me a letter from Hangzhou to meet Li Qingzhao. The purpose is to let her help you find a way to win over Xiao's Lidi. Our Xiao Linya is a fan of Qingzhao, and he is Linya, who likes Jinshi calligraphy and painting the most. Regarding the collection and research of Jinshi calligraphy and painting, no one in my Song Dynasty surpassed Zhao Mingcheng and Li Qingzhao and his wife. This time, Qingzhao has to give up her love. I will swear to do all my abilities to compensate her for what she has lost in the future."
After a pause, Fangping said, "Then Xiao Linya likes face. Han Shizhong, please bring me a letter to the official family. Be sure to ask the official family to withstand the pressure and personally receive Xiao's Lith. Then our official family is a great calligrapher, and be sure to ask the official family to write the inscription "Watch the Sea and Listen to the Waves" to Comrade Xiao."
"This..." countless people said embarrassedly, "Please think it through, this is a matter of damage to the national character. A mere jester of the Liao Kingdom also wants me to receive the Emperor of Song. This is not the emperor's face alone."
Gao Fangping touched his chin and said, "What are you talking about? Of course I understand what you said. However, the real face is something we used to re-install, not something we kept by etiquette. In the past, we pretended to behave, but it was just pretending to show ourselves. When did we have a national character? Could the war result in the northwest be obtained by corrupt scholars using etiquette? How much is a pound of face? The key is to get it. After stabilizing the northwest, I, Zhuo Ping, will personally go to Liao Kingdom in the future and slowly take back the lost face."
