Yang Jian actually misunderstood Wu Haogu, and Wu Haogu never thought that Hexi would become a vassal state in the Song Dynasty.

In his opinion, Hexi was always a trouble for Yelu Yanxi, and it might drag the Great Liao Kingdom to death, right?

However, sometimes he did underestimate Yelu Yanxi and overestimate Zhao Ji. Although they were all kings of the country that destroyed their country, the same kings of the country that destroyed their country were of high or low level. Yelu Yanxi really got a bad hand and encountered too many perverted opponents. One was Salihei Khan of the Krei tribe (the son of Mogus, also known as Huerzhahus Khan), who believed in God's slut, and could not beat Xiaoqiang no matter how he believed. The other was Hebule Khan of the Menggu tribe, the first Mongolian Khan in history, the great-grandfather of Genghis Khan. There was also the Jurzhen Ganda, who had a fierce battle. Yelu Yanxi's subordinates were a group of Khitans who ate vegetarians, how could they beat others?

Zhao Ji was playing with a good hand and was ruined... So now he is holding a better hand and is constantly making tricks.

Wu Haogu's kindness sometimes becomes the driving force that aggravates the stupid moves. So, it is really not that Wu Haogu has ulterior motives, but that fate is arousing people!

Wu Haogu, but kind

...

Chongzheng Hall, the monarch and ministers discuss politics.

Because the war situation in Hedong was corrupt, Zhao Ji, who had not shown a smile for many days, finally showed a relaxed smile today.

Yang Jian brought him good news. The Liao people were willing to change Hebei from Hexi and Shuofang... Heshuo was originally taken from the territory of the Western thieves, but now they don’t feel sorry for losing it. Hedong is the family business left by his ancestors, so it is naturally a good thing to be able to take it back.

In addition, the Liao people were willing to admit that Yan land belonged to the Song Dynasty. Although Wu Haogu had separatist forces in Yan land, the status finally came back, which was also a great achievement!

With the protection of Yanshan Mountain, the nomadic cavalry in the north will finally not be able to do anything to the north bank of the Yellow River at any time.

As for the Youzhou separatist rule, I will find a way to solve it slowly.

Zhao Ji's smile had already set the tone, and of course the ministers in Chongzheng Hall knew how to speak.

"Your Majesty, the people of Liao are willing to change Hebei from Hedong. It is because God blesses the Song Dynasty and God blesses His Majesty!"

"Your Majesty, I think there is still room for transformation for the Liao people. Maybe we can leave Lingzhou and Shuofang, and only cut Hexi, Anxi, and Beiting. In this way, no matter whether it is northwest or northeast, there will be no danger."

"Your Majesty, I am willing to go to Youzhou to negotiate with the Liao envoy, and do my best to compete for the country's profit."

The ministers naturally followed Zhao Ji's expression and expressed their support one by one. Among them, Cai Jing stepped forward and wanted to go to Yanjing to act as an envoy who sold the country and sought honor.

Well, there is no way to cut Hexi, Anxi, and Beiting. However, you can still compete for the amount of annual monies in the future.

In the news brought back by Yang Jian, there is no clause for the annual monies. But it must be given! Cai Jing estimated that one million should be negotiated... Well, it was also a credit! It is quite cost-effective to "change" a million monies back to a Yan land.

"Okay, okay!" Zhao Ji nodded with a smile, "Then I'll have to let Cai Qing go to Tianjin... As for the deputy envoy, let Wu Haowen go!

In addition, after seeing Wu Haogu, he would tell him about the marriage to his son. Yiyong, Yixin, and Yijiu are all very good. They can all be my son-in-law, so they will give them jade plates, golden slaves, and blessings. His eldest daughter, beautiful lady, also heard that she is quite beautiful, and she can be betrothed to the king."

"Your Majesty," Cai Jing quickly responded, "The homonym of Mei Niang is Mei Niang..."

"Mei Niang?" Zhao Ji was stunned, "Wu Mei Niang... Well, don't mention the issue of giving the king a chance to choose a concubine."

"Your Majesty's wiseness."

Cai Jing sighed. Wu Haogu's three sons got a princess each, and Cai Jing didn't care. But let Wu Haogu's daughter Wu Meiniang become Princess Ding, that is, Zhao Ji's eldest son Zhao Tan (Zhao Huan)'s main concubine, it's not possible. The crown prince's concubine may become the queen mother!

Even if Cai Jing does not come out to object, the ministers in the hall will raise objections.

The right chief of the fashion book, Su Chi, came out to report: "Your Majesty, the Liao people are cunning. Last time they were betrayed and raided Gao Qiu's troops, causing Gao Qiu to be killed. Although peace talks are being discussed again, the court is still strictly guarding against accidents."

The ministers in the palace were thinking in their hearts: The last time they were all Wu Haogu... There should be no problem this time!

"Then order the troops from the sixth route in the southeast to continue to go west," Zhao Ji said. "As long as they arrive in Hedong, they should be safe."

"Your Majesty," Wu Juhou, the new head of the Privy Council, reported with a sad face, "Now that the army north of Taiyuan, there are already nine new troops in Hedong, and there are also imperial guards, wing troops, and government soldiers in total. If the new troops in the southeast of the six generals are added, the total force will exceed 200,000!"

Zhao Ji smiled and said, "With 200,000 troops, you should not be afraid of the Liao soldiers."

Hearing this judgment, Zhang Shuye, the military commander present, frowned. 190,000 out of the 200,000 people were mobs... There were a little more elite soldiers, and it would be great to have a first general in Kaifeng's new army. If he could cooperate with the 10,000 cavalrymen from Hexi and a famous general to command, he might be able to break the siege of Taiyuan.

However, Zheng Juzhong expanded one general into eight, stuffed tens of thousands of soldiers who could not fight at all and had no weapons. There were too many people, but their combat effectiveness was not as good as before, and he turned the elite into a mob...

As for the six generals from Haizhou, Zhang Shuye went to see them in person. It was not possible at all! They were the original old imperial guards, and they were also the scumbag-like Southeast imperial guards. There were quite a few people, and the main soldiers and auxiliary soldiers had more than 50,000.

But it's a lot of people and consumes a lot!

"Your Majesty," Wu Juhou replied, "In the war, the 200,000 army consumed more than 120,000 stones per month... If the consumption of mules, horses and people was added, 200,000 stones could not be stopped! Now, the north of the Fenzhou and Taiyuan Prefecture were ravaged by the Liao people, and there were only seven or eight states left in Hedong that could still be taxed in summer and autumn. It was not enough to cope with the consumption of 200,000 troops.

The Hebei prefectures had just suffered military disasters, and their vitality had not yet recovered, so it was extremely difficult to supply the Hebei army.

As for Henan, there has always been a shortage of grain. Although the Hailu Maritime Manufacturing Department has guaranteed a supply of 2 million stones to the north, it is still a decrease compared to last year.

In addition, Hedong's transportation is extremely inconvenient, and there is no waterway to access. The grain must be transported through mountain roads, which is extremely depleted along the way. If it starts from Baibo, Luoyang, it will be five or six hundred miles to Jinzhou, and at least one thousand miles to Taiyuan. The consumption on the way is more than the grain transported to the army! If 200,000 shi are required per month, the grain transported to Baibo will be at least 400,000 shi. It is 4.8 million shi a year..."

Wu Juhou's words made Zhao Ji's smile disappear again.

OK, why are there not enough military rations to eat? Fortunately, the Liao people have sought peace. If the war has to continue, what should we do!

Zhao Ji shook his head, "Wu Qing doesn't have to worry. The peace will be done, and it will never be the time when the food is exhausted before the army."

He paused and said to Cai Jingyan: "Cai Qing, go and tell Wu Haogu that even if the peace agreement is successful, he will still be the Great Protector of Anton! You must always cause some trouble for the Liao people on Tokyo Road!"

...

"Here, come..."

Liu Yanqing shouted in a trembling voice.

Zheng Juzhong and Qian Gai stood side by side on Beicheng Pass in Jinzhou, looking at the official road leading to Hongdong County to the north.

The sound of horse hooves connected together had already come from afar. The sound of horse hooves was so amazing that it seemed to make the city walls of Jinzhou tremble slightly.

Zheng Juzhong, who was waiting there, changed his face. How many people did Su Zhihuan and Feng Mingzhong bring? He looked back and looked at Liu Yanqing, who was quite handsome and had a smile on his face.

Liu Yanqing was born into a general, but he was born with a erotic thought. He immediately understood what Zheng Dashumi meant, so he smiled and said, "Not many, not many, only hundreds of riders."

Hundreds of riders are scary like this? If thousands of horses gallop, wouldn’t it be like the earth shaking?

Zheng Juzhong took a deep breath of air, calmed his mood, and then turned to look north. At this time, the flag of the Hexi Army had already appeared. It was a black twelve flag on white background, which was different in color from the black twelve flag on red background of Youzhou Army. At the same time, four or five large flags appeared, all of which were swept and rolled. These large flags were all written with words, written with words such as "The only law of heaven", "Kong said to be the benevolence", "Meng said to be righteous", "Conquering oneself and returning to rituals", "The world is benevolence" and other words.

These are the purposes and slogans of the Great Education and Reform Group. The roughly means that the laws of nature are the only source and the truth of all mankind. Therefore, Confucius taught Confucian scholars to defend the laws of nature with their lives in order to achieve benevolence. Mencius taught Confucian scholars to spread the laws of nature with no fear of sacrifice in order to achieve righteousness. The manifestation of the laws of nature in the world is that everyone restrains themselves and abides by the rituals that conform to the laws of nature. Only when everyone abides by them can the world belong to great harmony and great benevolence...

What appears behind these great principles is the Knight of the Heavenly Rule who is preparing to use Chengren to achieve righteousness to achieve the world's Rebirth!

Hundreds of grown men, dressed neatly and their armor was covered with cold armor, and everyone was carrying a carriage. There was no condom on the tip of the carriage gun, and the tip of the gun was shining, obviously grinding very quickly. Hundreds of armored soldiers gathered in one place, and the rushing cold light actually made people feel chilling.

Zheng Juzhong tried hard to suppress his fear and asked Liu Yanqing: "There will be no problem with Liu Zheng, right?"

"No!" Liu Yanqing was actually only 60% sure.

He knew that Su Zhihuan and Fengmingshan were not real generals of the Hexi Army. If we came today, Yu Tongdao and Liu Long, the two general managers of the Hexi Army, who were from the Knight Academy and the Biyong Academy, would never dare to play any Hongmen Banquet. However, Su Zhihuan and Fengmingshan were just intermediate generals of the Hexi Army who were from utility, had no deep foundation and did not have enough experience in commanding soldiers.

The most important thing is that the two of them cannot represent the Hexi Army. The Hexi Army... are still loyal to the court! So as long as the appeases are properly, the thousands of Hexi knights can still be stabilized.
