Chapter 1,400 Resolution

Wang Gui said: "Your Majesty, the Qingtang Dynasty sent Qingyi Jiegui Zhang and Duqiao Grandpa to assist us in the Pingxia Dynasty two years ago. The relationship has always been good. Although there have been two consecutive years of great prosperity, it can only make up for the consumption of the Pingxia Dynasty.

That’s all.”

"Sinong Temple now has a saying that it originated from the Duke of Shu, but in the land of China, the climate in five years is usually one good, two short and two flat. After two years of great prosperity, it is even more necessary to save food in case of emergencies."

"There is also the Liao Kingdom. Although the Liao Kingdom has suffered from disasters every year in recent years, it is difficult to understand the country of Yi and Di. Because of its disasters, it is especially necessary to take precautions."

"After incorporating Ningxia, the border between Song and Liao increased by no less than two thousand miles. The defense posture of the entire Mobei is now being adjusted by the Duke of Shu, the Military Aircraft Department, and the Ministry of War."

"Although there were many more troops on the northwestern roads, the Han army only managed to catch up to 70,000, while Dang Xiang's surname was the Eight Tribes. They selected the best of the best, and the number reached 80,000."

"When the Xixia princess was humiliated in the Qingtang Dynasty, it is difficult to tell whether the party members were sincerely dissatisfied or whether they were just trying to solve the problem. Once they were ordered to send troops, if they were repeated, the three parties would immediately be corrupted."

"Moreover, the terrain of the Qing and Tang Dynasties is easy to defend but difficult to attack. The mountains and rivers are barren and the transportation of grain and fodder is extremely difficult. If the attack cannot be conquered for a long time, I am afraid that the Ji family's worries will arise from Xiaoqiang."

"Nowadays, the Qing and Tang Dynasties only have four states, which are like chicken ribs compared to our Song Dynasty. They have no meat to eat and it is a pity to abandon them."

"Why not first respond to the people's sentiments, send envoys to express condolences, find out the truth, delay for a while, and wait until the situation becomes clear? Then choose one to support them."

Huang Lu, the imperial censor, believed that Wang Gui was trying to make peace with Xini: "The world regards the Song Dynasty as its suzerain. However, the Song Dynasty's benevolence and virtue spread widely, upholding justice and upholding justice. It has a profound understanding of righteousness and will continue to survive."

"The Qingtang Dynasty was a vassal of the Song Dynasty. How did the Song Dynasty behave like this? If it is not punished, what will the world think of the Song Dynasty?"

"If the situation becomes clear and Ali Gu clearly has the upper hand over the Qing and Tang Dynasties, then we, the Song Dynasty, will also support him as the leader?"

"The Ministry of Rites previously believed that the Song Dynasty had no reason to intervene. That was because its rebellious behavior had not been shown. The imperial court had just promulgated the "Four Discussions and Four Conquests" against Tibet, but in the blink of an eye it turned a blind eye to the Qing and Tang Dynasties? The world will look upon the Song Dynasty.

how?"

"Now that Ali's body has been lost, all the people are worried. The feudal vassals are furious. If the Song Dynasty ignores their confession, will it still be able to show its prestige in the future? Will the Song Dynasty not be underestimated by the border tribes?"

"I would like to ask your Majesty to select some handsome ministers and bring together the best warriors to eliminate this stubbornness and clear up the world!"

Cai Que said: "Your Majesty, Lin Bubi is Dong Xiang's biological son? Ali Gu is Dong Xiang's adopted son, and his biological son is still alive? And the Qiao family wants to force an adopted son, which is the reason for causing chaos."

"Ali's body was severely punished and executed. His subordinates are not inferior to Ning. He has no old grudges, but he has accumulated new grievances. The situation is insurmountable."

"Even if only one of the crimes mentioned by his ministers is true, the Song Dynasty will never be able to establish it."

"In the land of the four states of the Qing and Tang Dynasties, Xinmu Qinzhen guarded Qinghai and took in the sons of Dangzheng in southern Jiangsu; Wenxi and Xinlinbubi guarded Miaochuan, but he did not know whether he was alive or dead; Lu Zun guarded Kuozhou and cut off the rivers and rivers; Jie Yao secretly guarded Ji

Shi Er sent his son to the Song Dynasty."

"This is already a situation of disintegration, but it was not instigated by the Song Dynasty; if Dong Fei is indeed dead, I will not surrender and accept rebellion. But the source of the river is shaken, and the conflict in the west of the river is raging. Even if the Song Dynasty does not want to intervene, it has to intervene."

"This is the result of events, and the situation is self-determined. No matter what we do in the Song Dynasty, it is better than doing nothing."

"It is urgent and three envoys should be dispatched immediately."

"He first went to Miaochuan to appease Lin Bubi and the officials of the Qing and Tang Dynasties, collect evidence and confessions, and determine whether they were true."

"As soon as he went to the Qing and Tang Dynasties, he expressed the court's attitude and verified whether Dong Fei was dead. If he was dead, he also needed to check the cause of death. In addition, he needed to ask Ali Gu to hand over Wen Xixin, Jie Lemasduobu and his son, and hand over Xia Guo

Princess."

"The first one is to be sent to Ningxia to appease the old tribe of the Eight Surnames."

"With so many ministers accusing Ali Gu, the so-called accusations of thousands of people have ended in vain. In order to prevent Ali Gu from doing random things, we need to send troops to the situation in case of any eventuality."

"You can order Li Xian, the envoy of Xihe Jinglue, to know Wang Wenyu of Lanzhou, to make Chaogu the governor of Hexi Jiedu, to know Liu Changzuo of Liangzhou, and to prepare the entire army."

"Once Ali Gu's crime is confirmed, Lin Bubi will be appointed as the leader of the Qing Tang Dynasty. Under the guidance of the officials of the Qing Tang Dynasty, Ali Gu and his accomplices will be captured, sent to the palace, pronounced guilty and executed!"

Zhang Dun disagreed: "The barbarians of the Qing and Tang Dynasties were always well-behaved and educated. How can they be so strange if they behave like animals?"

"Where is the trouble? Since you dare to do it, you must dare to bear the responsibility! Order Hexi to send two new troops, led by envoys, to declare their crimes, massacre their tribesmen, spread the news to the four states, and make Lin Bubi the leader.

Yes!"

After the Song Dynasty grasped morality and justice, the main war faction in the court immediately gained the upper hand.

Zhao Xu said: "It's easy to talk about the other two routes. Who is the better envoy to join the Qing and Tang Dynasties?"

Cai Jingcheng immediately cupped his hands and said, "I think that the Duke of Shu is very kind and powerful. If he enters the Qing Tang Dynasty, things will be reversed."

"No, absolutely not!" But it was Wang Gui who came out: "The Duke of Shu is an important minister of our dynasty, how can I use a bull's knife to kill a chicken? What if I lose my prestige and make the barbarians look down on me, the Song Dynasty."

"Exactly!" Wang Anli also came out: "The pillar of the Shu Kingdom, Northwest Hengjun, how can it be allowed to leave lightly now? Hexi and northern Shaanxi are full of talents. I would like to use Zhao Man as the envoy, Li Xian to supervise the army, and give Wang Hou some advice

, Liu Shiheng and his two tribes entered the Qing and Tang Dynasties, which is enough."

Zhao Xu asked Guo Kui: "Guo Shuai, what do you think?"

Guo Kui said: "I think Wang Anli's idea is feasible. The army will enter Miaochuan first, and the rest of the land will be properly guarded."

"There is Lin Bubi in Miaochuan who needs to return to Qingtang City to fight for the throne; there is Wen Xixin's second son Bawen and nephew Wen Nawen who are trying to succeed. They are worried about Wen Xixin's whereabouts, so they must fight bravely."

"With the addition of Xibawen from Henan, Jie Yaomi, and Lu Zun from Kuozhou, the coalition formed a long march and fought against Ali Gu. It was more than enough."

"In this way, there is no need to spend more on transporting food and crops. The six thousand new troops and the Qingtang people are ordered to contribute food and grass, which can be supported."

Zhao Xu nodded: "Now that I have made up my mind, I will send an order to Zhao Man, the transfer envoy on Xihe Road, and Li Xian, the strategic envoy, to organize the army into Miaochuan and order Qin Feng and Hexi to be on guard to prevent Ali Gu from fighting to the death.

"

"Order Wang Wenyu to guard Lanzhou, Li Hao to guard Hezhou, and Jia Ge to guard Xizhou. If the enemy invades, they will support each other and respond."

The ministers bowed and said: "My Emperor is Holy Ming."

Coming out of the palace, Wang Gui smiled bitterly and said to Wang Anli: "Now it seems that this year is not going to be good again."

Wang Anli said: "Today we are pragmatic and don't pay much attention to decoration. This is the blessing of the country."

"Ali Gu wants to destroy himself. We have no choice but to respond."

"Your Majesty has exempted Ningxia from taxes for ten years. Now it seems that he is far-sighted. If not, if the Qing and Tang Dynasties are in chaos, Ningxia will also follow suit."

Cai Que came over: "In the past, it was others who had the final say whether to fight or not. Now the situation has become that we, the Song Dynasty, decide whether to send troops. I have to say that this is the result of the increase in the national power of our country, the Song Dynasty."

Wang Gui shook his head: "Although the country is large, it will be in danger if it is warlike. Wars in the northwest are quite frequent. I am worried that there will be more in the future."

"His Majesty has been sick several times this year. After all, he is tired. I thought it was the end of the year and let His Majesty take a quick rest, but now... alas!"

Cai Que said with a smile: "It's just six thousand people sent. It's not a serious matter. Don't worry, sir."



Ningxia Road, Xingzhou.

Su You was listening to the military situation report from Li Yong who had arrived.

The map of the Qing-Tang Silk Road was displayed in front of everyone.

If Shen Kuo were here, he would have complained that the Duke of Shu must have anticipated this day when he set up the Wolf Crossing Racecourse. Since then, he has been sending map teams, caravans, and monks to Qingtang, surveying and mapping all the way.

On the current map, several lines extending from Khotan, an important node of the Silk Road, to Lanzhou in the Song Dynasty are clearly marked.

Li Yong was using his command pen to introduce the situation in the northwest region to the officials of the Three Roads Transportation Department.

Just listen to Li Yong talk:

"Starting from Khotan, along the edge of the desert and plateau, you can reach the easternmost city controlled by Khotan - Yochang City."
