Chapter 640: Attacking the Heart is the Best(1/2)
After Zhao Xu sent Qian Yi away, he continued to rest and make up for his sleep.
When he woke up, he saw Empress Dowager Xiang looking at him lovingly.
"Sixth Brother is awake?" Empress Dowager Xiang touched his little face.
This kid has worked very hard lately.
We also have to take into account military affairs. Sometimes we will be called up late at night and listen to the frontline reports.
It's also my fault!
If you don’t understand military affairs, it’s hard to hesitate.
Although the aunt knows a little, she is not familiar with the civil and military ministers on the front line.
In addition, he is a little anxious, and often he is happy when he hears victory, and he is afraid when he hears defeat.
This child may be the only one who was with him, and he experienced the five Lanzhou Battles in the seventh year of Yuanfeng and the Dingxi City Battle.
So you can be safe from victory or defeat and be in danger.
Because of his super memory, he can even memorize the resumes of military officials above the border.
I know all about the personalities of these people.
Even because I look at the sand table every day, I am familiar with the geographical and terrain along the border.
Therefore, relatively reasonable judgments can always be made.
He can always make judgments in danger.
For example, at first, when the entire Song Dynasty encountered an attack, the child made a direct judgment in the palace - the main attack of the thief must be in Xihe, the weight of the Xihe must be Dingxi, and other roads are all feinted.
And now, these commands have come true.
The main force of the bandits was indeed in Xihe, and the main attack direction was indeed Dingxi City.
In addition, it was the instructions to the officials of the road during the war.
It can be said that it is neither fast nor slow and well organized.
Delegate power and restrain the situation.
So, today's results were finally achieved.
"Why is the mother coming?" Zhao Xu asked with a smile: "But what happened?"
"Yeah!" said the Empress Dowager Xiang: "Just now, Lu Huiqing from Hedong reported it to the report with a hurry, saying that the envoy of the Western thief Wei Ming Moduo, who was ordered by the Empress Dowager to enter the country to discuss peace under the name of "redeeming the fake prince-consort Zhu Wei Ming."
"The sixth brother ordered Lu Huiqing to abide by the peace agreement and withdraw from Ningxinghe City and Kuye River. He is really visionary!" Empress Dowager Xiang sighed.
Her husband is also very smart and often has vision.
Whether it is the Luowu City strategy at the beginning of the throne or the Yongle City Battle in his later years.
They are all very strategic, and it can even be said that once successful, they can destroy Xixia.
However, I can't hold back my character and want to achieve my goal in one battle.
So, chaos broke out.
There was a mutiny in Luowu City and it could only end hastily.
However, Yongle City has revised its plans many times during the quarrel between the generals on the front line.
Finally, choose Yongle City on a mountain without water.
Therefore, Yongle City changed from being able to revitalize the whole chess game to the disaster of the Song Dynasty.
Fortunately, he finally educated an excellent heir.
"Where has the Hedong side found out some details when entering the country?" Zhao Xu asked calmly.
Xiang Hunter smiled and showed Lu Huiqing's true consecration to Zhao Xu: "Sixth brother, look at it, Lu Huiqing said that this time, the envoy of the Western thief seemed to be appointed by the Western thief Empress Dowager, and he did not discuss with the Prime Minister..."
"Lu Huiqing said that he might be able to alienate the prime minister and the queen mother of the Western thief..."
Zhao Xu's eyes lit up as he listened, and his evaluation of Lu Huiqing became a little higher in his heart.
He naturally knew that the method proposed by Lu Huiqing was more than feasible, and it was simply wonderful!
Because in his previous life, Liang Yibu, the prime minister of the Western Xia Kingdom, and his sister Empress Dowager Xiaoliang, eventually met in war.
The result was that Liang Yiji was defeated and forced to commit suicide.
A few years later, Empress Dowager Xiaoliang was poisoned to death by the Liao envoy in the Western Xia Palace. In front of his son Ganshun's daughter-in-law Yelu Nanxian and the civil and military officials of the court, he was poisoned to death with a glass of poisonous wine.
At this point, Wei Mingjia's repertoire has been staged.
He is still a brother, friend and sister, and a mother and a filial son.
Perhaps it is because of this that after Kang Shun was in power, he vigorously promoted the sinicization, established and improved the grammatical system, strengthened the monarchy, and weakened the powerful ministers of foreign relatives and relatives.
However, Zhao Xu is not sure what the two palaces are about Lu Huiqing?
So, he asked, "Mother, what is the idea of the Queen Mother?"
Xiang Husband said: "The Empress Dowager felt that what Hedong reported may be just Lu Huiqing's guess, and he cannot do it accurately..."
"Where is the mother?"
"I?" Empress Dowager Xiang grabbed Zhao Xu's hand: "I don't quite understand these military and national strategies, but I believe in Sixth Brother, who must have strategies in my heart!"
This is something that has been proven.
Zhang Dun's southern expedition in the first half of the year and the war today have proved to all court officials with eloquent facts - although this child is young, he is indeed able to make decisions on military and national strategies, and it is a correct decision proven by facts!
This is how governing the country is.
As long as you do the right thing, after success, your ministers will join in, waving the flag and singing praises for you.
What's more, this child is still so young.
As a result, the court officials praised it and praised it as King Cheng of the Song Dynasty.
Public opinion generally believes that even if it is not as good as the king, it is at least an enhanced version of Emperor Zhang of Han and Emperor Shun of Han.
As long as God blesses, we can have a normal life span, and revitalize the country and extend our life for a hundred years will be no problem.
Zhao Xu held Empress Dowager Xiang's hand and said, "My mother believes in her son, and the son will not let the mother down."
"In my opinion, what Hedong Jing thinks may be implemented!"
"After the envoy enters the court, I will test it and may know."
"Um!"
Zhao Xu grabbed Empress Dowager Xiang's hand and rubbed it habitually.
This matter needs to be thought about.
Diplomatic provocation is a technical job.
For Zhao Xu, the interesting thing about this matter is that he has opened the perspective of God and has clearly known that the Empress Dowager Xiaoliang and the Prime Minister Liang Yibi will definitely turn against each other, and they will never stop.
"Interesting... Interesting..." Zhao Xu thought to himself: "If I remember correctly..."
"Bingchang has a posthumous son named Richard, who is recognized as a famous general in modern Western Xia history research, and a legendary figure similar to the Lanling King of Northern Qi!"
Zhao Xu has seen the achievements of this smooth and good brother in modern times.
It is a general and calm person who can judge the situation keenly, remain calm in the face of danger and make the most appropriate choice.
In that era when Xixia was fully in a strategic disadvantage, this person emerged like a savior and saved the crisis.
But no matter how awesome this Brother Richard is, he is only a little over one year old now and is still in his infancy.
This may be a point to be exploited!
If you can use it...
Zhao Xu was a little excited when he thought of this.
His modern study abroad experience told him that the best way to break through the enemy's fortress is to let the enemy kill each other.
How many great empires and indestructible cities have all perished in civil strife.
The Dangxiang nation seems to be a mess, but in fact it is very tenacious.
Once they encounter a crisis, under the pressure of a sense of crisis, they will gather together and burst out with unprecedented combat power and fighting will.
Even the nomadic empire that later swept across Europe and Asia was repeatedly frustrated when facing the Western Xia.
In the end, they could only use their best-known big detour tactics, encircled the rear road from the Western Regions, captured the Hexi Corridor, and eventually trapped the Dangxiang people and surrounded them in a narrow area of Xingqing Prefecture.
Even so, according to historical records, Xixia also carried out arduous and tenacious resistance.
Legend has it that in its last fortress, the military and civilians of Xixia first experienced severe earthquake disasters and were destroyed by plague.
In the end, it was forced to surrender to the last emperor in order to preserve the remaining people.
Before that, the Xixia people also fought various arduous defense battles.
Especially in the Battle of Lingzhou, the former crown prince was steadfast and unyielding, and went to his death to die for his country.
To be continued...
