Chapter 43 I want it all!
The Palace of the Western Xia.
The three of them were in the huge palace, Li Bingchang, the general Li Qing, and the Grand Secretary Jing Xun, and the three of them were in the huge palace, and there was no one else in the palace, and the others were all driven out by Li Bingchang.
"I have received a letter from the Emperor of the Song Dynasty. Zhao Xu is willing to help me take back the world."
Li Bingchang was excited in his voice during the voice change period.
The kings of Xixia regarded themselves as emperors in Xixia and called themselves me. The same was true for domestic edicts, but they could not be like this when communicating with the Song Dynasty's letter of state.
Li Qing and Jing Xun looked at each other and saw the excitement in each other's eyes.
Generally speaking, Li Qing and Jing Xun are both Han people, so they should support Empress Dowager Liang's siblings, because Empress Dowager Liang's siblings are Han people.
But what is quite magical about the Western Xia is that the Liang siblings of the Han people wanted to restore the foreign rituals, while Li Bingchang, who was a Dangxiang native, wanted to restore the Han rituals.
But this matter seems magical, but it is just a political issue.
As Han people, the Liang brothers and sisters controlled the Dangxiang country, the Dangxiang people, so that they could win more support.
As a Dangxiang person, if Li Bingchang followed the Liang family, he would have no supporters of his own and he would have to fight for the rest of his strength.
And this power is the Han people in Xixia.
It is precisely because the Liang brothers and sisters were close to Dangxiang people and could alienate Han people that Li Qing and Jingxun were gradually excluded from the political center, and these people were the targets that Li Bingchang could fight for.
The key is that there is another advantage in restoring the Han rituals, which is that it can get close to the Song Dynasty.
Of course, if you want to use the power of the Song Dynasty, he has to pay more, but restoring the Han ritual is a good start after all.
So, such a magical scene appeared in Xixia.
Li Qingxi said: "With the help of the Song Dynasty, our big thing will be accomplished!"
Li Bingchang laughed and nodded: "That's right, Master Jing's strategy is indeed extraordinary!"
Jing Xun waved his hand and said, "Your Majesty is a mistake, it's just an ordinary trick."
Li Bingchang smiled and rested, but his face showed concern: "Mr. Jing, do I have a question or not?"
Jing Xun quickly said, "Please tell me your Majesty."
Li Bingchang said worriedly: "We really want to give Hedong to the Song Dynasty. Otherwise, just give them the Henan area as General Li said."
Jing Xun smiled bitterly. Before this master could capture the world, he regarded the world as his own.
"Your Majesty, if you only give it to Hedong or even Lanzhou before the Lingzhou Free Trade Zone, the Song Dynasty would come over happily. But after the Lingzhou Free Trade Zone, let alone Lingzhou, even if you give all the Henan area, the Song Dynasty would not lose the big picture because of the small. Only by tempting them with Hetao can you leverage the power.
As for whether to give it to you in the future, haha, it’s not too late to talk about this issue when Your Majesty takes the world first.”
Li Bingchang suddenly woke up and said ashamed: "What Master Jing said is that I am not thinking about it."
Li Qing comforted: "Your Majesty has nothing wrong with patriotism, but even if Your Majesty regains power, he may not necessarily have to fulfill his promise. This kind of thing is just a matter of saying."
Li Bingchang widened his eyes: "Can you still operate like this?"
...
Su Shi widened his eyes: "Can you still operate like this?"
Ouyang Bian smiled: "If the promise between the two countries is really fulfilled, it will definitely be a pity. If you don't admit defeat, can you really raise an army and fight?"
Su Shi said angrily: "That must be fought!"
Ouyang Bian smiled and said, "That's all the civil and military officials in the court."
Su Shi thought about it and couldn't help but say, "Then forget it."
Ouyang Bian nodded: "Soldiers are major issues of the country. Every time I want to fight, I have to think about it again. There are many things that countries have to rely on each other. In addition to those mixed people, truly wise emperors will still seriously consider gains and losses. Xixia's promise this time is too great, so big that it is a bit weak."
Su Shi said in surprise: "Then did Your Majesty agree?"
Ouyang Bian smiled and said, "There is a lucky thought, but in fact it is just an excuse to intervene.
Your Majesty is a man with great ambitions. Since taking office, he has been focusing on the northwest. Over the years, he has just accumulated strength. In fact, he has been staring at the northwest. He was caught off guard by Xixia that time. He has been sleeping on firewood and tasting galls over the years, but he has no chance.
Now that Li Bingchang has brought the opportunity to his door, our Majesty is naturally disrespectful."
Su Shi sighed: "The battle will bring disaster to life. Ji Mo, you will be the first to be affected by it. You must pay attention to safety. I will go back to Beijing to report my life first."
Ouyang Bian watched the mission go further and further in the morning sun, and when he turned around, his face was already a little cold.
When the war lasted, it was certain that the creatures were suffering, but for the Song Dynasty, it was also a chance to be reborn from the fire.
This is the best era of the Song Dynasty. The Jin Kingdom has not yet risen, and the Yuan Dynasty in Mongolia is still missing. The only real opponent is the Liao Kingdom, which is strong outside and strong inside.
However, the Song Dynasty today cannot defeat the Liao Kingdom and cannot take back the Western Xia. It was originally thought that the Song Shenzong Zhao Xu was wise and divine, but knowing this time, Ouyang Bian truly realized that in the eyes of the emperor, imperial power is the only important thing.
In order to ensure that the imperial power is not lost, Zhao Xu expelled the Han family, Cui family, Cao family, and himself from the court. Zhao Xu now has completely controlled the court. Perhaps this is what he really cares about.
But Ouyang Bian doesn't care anymore.
He has fought in the Song Dynasty for so many years and done so many things for the Zhao family. He has a clear conscience in his heart. In the future, he will do something for the Chinese people.
He wants Lanzhou, Henan, Hetao, and Xixia even more.
——I want it all!
Ouyang Bian closely monitors the domestic trends in Xixia.
Today, Xixia is no longer the mysterious country in the past. The merchants of the Song Dynasty were everywhere. They colluded with the powerful and powerful people of Xixia. Such a few things in the Xixia court were basically leaked in a few hours and then sent to Ouyang Bian's table.
The imperial party in Xixia has begun to promote the implementation of Han rituals in China, and Li Bingchang became even more active and constantly met the leaders of the tribe. He was very dissatisfied with the party since then. Empress Dowager Liang and Liang Yi were publicly blocked. Even the imperial party and the queen party broke out in the court, and the political atmosphere became more and more tense.
Ouyang Bian watched this, but also made a lot of preparations in secret.
Every day, the information from Xixia was sent to Beijing quickly and Ouyang Bian began to inspect the border troops.
