Following Chen Xuan's question, Zhang Shanfu, Wu Ting and other ministers also looked at Liu Yi.

Outside the window, the white Shouchang Zexing, a group of water birds circling lightly in the sky. Whenever they find prey under the water, they pierce into the water like arrows, then flew up with their prey, swept across the withered reeds, stopped at the safe branches, raised their throats proudly, and swallowed the fish and shrimps into their stomachs. This lively scenery attracted many Dunhuang people to linger, but in the Hanguang Hall built by the water, the eyes of the king and ministers fell on the Prime Minister Liu Yi.

"I think," Liu Yi pondered, "Only by leaving without fighting can we make a plan."

"Go out without fighting?" Chen Xuan immediately became interested and leaned over and asked, "How do you say this?"

Liu Yi stood up and bowed to Zhang Shanfu and other generals. The eyes of the generals followed him to the huge map hanging on the wall. Liu Yi's palm was drawn from Chang'an to Luoyang: "Make a big fuss, move the troops stationed in Guanzhong east to Luoyang, shocking the Liao Kingdom." He looked at the generals, "General Zhang said right. The situation in Guandong is right. The situation in Guandong is a battle between two tigers, and the Liao Kingdom has not yet been exhausted, and the Song Kingdom is the same. If we rashly manage Henan, it will be like taking the sir from the fire. The situation is obvious now, Liao is strong and Song is weak, and Yelu Dashi was defeated. Song could have taken the opportunity to recover Bianliang, and drove the Liao army to Hebei in one breath to cultivate the troops. When the spring of the next year, we will launch a large-scale northern expedition and recover Hebei. However, in the face of such a good opportunity, the Song court let it go gently due to internal struggle, which shows its decline. Congratulations to Your Majesty, the momentum of the world returning to Xia is unshakable."

"Prime Minister," Chen Xuan shook his head with a smile, "Daxia is the Great Xia of the four people, and I should congratulate you."

"I hope Your Majesty always has this heart." Liu Yi smiled and bowed. He coughed and continued, "Now that the Song Dynasty has caused a disaster, the Xiao Wall, and the important officials are constantly fighting against Kuli. Therefore, although there are good generals and elite soldiers, they cannot intimidate the Liao people. Yelu Dashi was defeated or abandoned Henan, but as long as he recovered, he might become ambitious. Furthermore, the people of Guandong are also people of the same race. If we sit down and watch them slaughtered by the Liao people, we will be uneasy. If the world returns to unite in the future, the people of Guandong will also be in a grudge. It is difficult to get chestnuts from the fire, nor can we watch the fire across the river. This is a dilemma," Liu Yi frowned and walked a few steps in front of the map, as if he was trying to persuade the captains of the National Guardian. He suddenly smiled slightly, "Fortunately, Zhao Xingde suddenly jumped out."

"The Liao cavalry is easy to move, and the troops come and go like the wind, but they are not resistant to hard fighting. After the defeat in Yingchang, the Liao army was like a frightened bird. From Yelu Dashi to the generals, they no longer had the determination to fight a tough battle with the Song army. Although the Song army retreated, Zhao Xingde went deeper without any effort. In a short period of time, Yelu Dashi might not be able to hold it. Is this a trap? In the battle of Jiangzhou, the three generals of Han Yue and Zhao had deceived a disagreement, causing the Liao people to suffer a great loss."

"Yelu Dashi is not a fool either," Zhang Shanfu frowned, "and he could hide his bluff for at most for a month."

"That's it. Zhao Xingde took advantage of the great victory in Yingchang and took advantage of the lonely army to easily capture Henan. Once Yelu Dashi found that he had no support, the lonely army would become lonely. If he was willing, he could go deep into Henan and eat up the Song army first." Liu Yi smiled and said, "But if we stationed heavy troops in Luoyang and turned the "xu" Zhang force into "real"? I'm afraid that the Liao army would have to weigh more before entering the Central Plains. You all know that Zhao Xingde of the Song Dynasty and General Zhao De of the marching department are the same person?

Although a man was inseparable from Guandong and refused to return, he was able to support the crowd in literature and could threaten the enemy with martial arts. He was a rare general. As long as he was given a little external support, he could not fight the soldiers and keep the Liao people out of the Central Plains. Zhao Xingde's troops were isolated in Henan, forming a unique line. The bigger his sternness was, the more trouble the Song court would get rid of the situation." Liu Yi looked at Zhang Shanfu, and Zhang Shanfu's face looked a little ugly. Although Zhao Xingde was valued by Liu Yi, he was a general in the marching department, which was a true fact.

"Yes," Chen Xuan nodded and smiled, "It's a bit interesting."

"No matter what the Song court and Zhao Xingde think, if we deal with this move properly, we just need to take advantage of the situation. Millions of soldiers and civilians in Henan may be able to submit to our dynasty without bloodshed, so that all the knowledgeable people in Guandong can see clearly that the world will return to Xia, which is the general trend." After Liu Yi finished speaking, he bowed to the generals and was about to walk back to his seat.

"Then Prime Minister Liu thought," Zhang Shanfu said coldly, "How should we take advantage of the situation in Henan?"

"This is taking advantage of the situation," Liu Yi smiled slightly: "First of all, we must station heavy troops in Luoyang and intimidate the Liao army. Do I want to hear the arrangements of the marching department?" Zhang Shanfu was prepared for this replies. He shook his head and said: "The soldiers have their own industries to make their own business and manage the households. If a large number of soldiers are recruited and they will not return for a long time, the people of Guanzhong will complain, and the guardians will be in trouble. However, the musket camp we recruited in Chang'an is useful. There are many workers and disciples in Guanzhong, and the training of musket gunmen is simple.

," he looked at Liu Yi and said, "As long as there is enough food and salary, the musket battalion can quickly expand to 100,000 people. In addition, just recruiting a few cavalry and artillerymen from the Guanzhong soldiers is enough to deter the Liao army. As for the generals who commanded the troops?" Zhang Shanfu frowned and thought for a moment, then turned to Chen Xuan, "I think that after his crown prince was a valiant commander of the Chang'an regiment, he has been a valiant commander of the musket battalion, and has won the public's expectations among the soldiers of the musket battalion. It is better to let the prince serve as the Luoyang regiment commander of the troops to deter the Liao people."

"The prince leads his troops?"

Chen Xuan hesitated for a moment and looked at the ministers next to him. Because the emperor also served as the commander of the Longya Army, the prince's military position did not exceed that of the lieutenant as usual. Therefore, Chen Chong made many military achievements in the northern border and could not be promoted to general. The Chang'an regiment was a civil servant, so he was able to inquire about the matter of training the musket camp. The Luoyang regiment was also a civil servant and should have been nominated by the prime minister, but Liu Yi thought for a while and did not object.

"That's it. However," Chen Xuan nodded and said to Liu Yi and Zhang Shanfu: "When Chen Chong leads troops, the General's Mansion must discuss with the Protecting the Country. The two governments of Zhuguo must discuss it properly. He must not make arbitrary decisions in recent years. He has felt that his energy is not as good as before. He has secretly waited for the situation on both sides of the east and west to stabilize, so he passed the throne to the crown prince Chen Chong. Therefore, he was particularly willing to remind him that he did not want Chen Chong to arouse the protection of the country. The power of the five governments made the imperial power of the Xia Kingdom far inferior to that of Guandong, but the royal family also gained blessings because the throne was far less attractive than the previous dynasty, which allowed the Chen father and son brother to enjoy the joy of human relations. Starting from the founding emperor Chen De, emperors of all dynasties issued a "self-crime edict" to abdicate in their fifties, and counted the mistakes of being a king during their reign, and passed the throne to the crown prince who was in his prime. This has formed a convention.

After several ministers stepped back, Liu Yi lowered his head and pondered as he walked. Zhang Shanfu was beside him and whispered: "Brother Liu, there is something that is not big or small. It seems inappropriate for His Majesty to look at him, but I will tell you in advance."

"What's the matter?"

"In addition to garrisoning heavily in Luoyang, Zhao Xingde's family will also be sent to Luoyang."

Liu Yi stood firmly, stood by Shouchang Lake with his hands, looking into the distance, as if watching several swans swimming in the lake. He was silent for a moment and shook his head and said, "Without the discussion of the five governments, the Grand Secretary and the Chiefs' Officer shall not be sentenced to prison. This is the basis for establishing a country and cannot be shaken. Mrs. Zhao Xingde is the Grand Secretary of the Wenci Academy." This rule was originally derived from the inscription "Those who speak in the Bachelor's Palace are not guilty", but later it was gradually expanded, allowing the Grand Secretary to have a status similar to the Chiefs' State and the Chiefs' State's Palace. The Grand Secretary was coerced or even detained, which not only aroused the dissatisfaction of the Grand Secretary, but also caused the shock and opposition of the Chiefs' State and the Chiefs' State.

"Of course," Zhang Shanfu nodded, "What if she was going to Luoyang herself? The Marine Department just couldn't let her set foot in Guandong. In this case, the Bachelor's Mansion would not object." He sighed, "If Zhao Xingde had not disobeyed, the Marine Department would not have been willing to make such a bad decision." Zhang Shanfu bowed, "Tomorrow morning, the plan to expand the Musket Battalion will be sent to the Prime Minister's Mansion. The so-called "before the troops and horses move, food and grass will come first, and military supplies will be in trouble."

In Shu, there is a golden roof of Emei, with white clouds lingering in the bamboo forest, and a corner of the blue tiles and white walls is exposed, just like a place where a god is living.

The monastery was clean and tidy, with a small table plaster and a bowl, and the wine was filled with fragrance. The two sat opposite each other, an old man was gray-bearded. It was Li Gefei, who had been in trouble with the Song Dynasty, and his eyes were full of worry. The other man was about forty years old, with strong muscles and bones and blushing face. He obviously had drunk a lot and said in a vague way: "Uncle, don't worry, it's not the first time I tried this flying wing parachute. Although it was a bit thrilling, it would be a rare weapon if it could be improved continuously." He filled Li Gefei and himself with wine.

Although Su Li was Chao Buzhi's son-in-law and the eldest son and grandson of Mr. Dongpo, he did not follow the literary path and was not interested in poetry. Instead, he became a fool because of his research on the art of mechanisms. He went from craftsman to a great scholar. Because Su Fu's artifacts were extremely exquisite, the foolish man and wife in Shu actually said that he had obtained immortal art and respected him as a god. Chao Buzhi was also amused when he mentioned this good son-in-law. This time, Su Li insisted on Jinding to test the flying wing parasol in person, but his wife Chao Heng and Chao Buzhi could not persuade him, so he could only ask Li Gefei to take action.

"Nephew," Li Gefei picked up the wine glass and sighed, "I still want to persuade you."

"Ah, it's so dangerous! The road to Shu is as difficult as the sky!" Before he finished speaking, Su Fu held the cup in one hand and slapped the table with the other, and even sang out loudly, "Cancong and Yufu, why are you confused about the founding of the country? You are 48,000 years old and will not be connected with Qinsai. There is a bird path in the west, so you can cross the top of Emei!" When he was singing to the fullest, he raised his glass again, "Come on, Uncle Li, I'll give you a cup!"
