What is the long-cherished wish of an official?

Or what is their ultimate goal?

Civil and military achievements!

Don't think that only emperors can think of this.

In the Song Dynasty, the emperor was the one who squatted in the palace to guard the gate, and the one who really did things was the prime minister.

What kind of personal expedition does not exist? You are thinking too much.

If you say that the Zhenzong personally has fought, then you are a stick.

Zhenzong wanted to run away to the south, but Kou Zhun refused and forced him to go to the expedition.

This was forced by his ministers.

After that battle, Kou Zhun was famous and could be compared with Yu Qian of the Ming Dynasty.

Both of them became the mainstay of the great enemy invaded and the civil and military officials in the court were in a panic, and they worked hard to save the imperial crisis.

Such famous ministers would probably be deliberately wiped out by the emperor. Why? Because the ministers are so powerful, they also make the emperor look so stupid.

This is a form of manifestation of being a taboo for the venerable.

But the ministers continued to want to be the second Kou Zhun and the second Yu Qian.

This is to make achievements!

The first large-scale foreign war between the Song Dynasty was about to begin.

Who commands the army?

This person will definitely leave his name in history in the future, and it will be exciting to think about it!

In a certain year and month, the prime minister led the army to conquer the Western Xia and won a great victory.

Just one sentence can make people feel refreshed and feel happy even when lying in the coffin.

But this matter can only be the emperor's arbitrary decision.

Zhao Shu looked at the prime ministers and looked behind them again.

The hall is very quiet.

Everyone is waiting for this decision.

He looked at Shen An and saw Shen An leaning against the pillar with a serious look on his face, as if he was thinking about national affairs, and he couldn't help but nod in satisfaction.

Young people should not be too idle, otherwise they will easily become decadent.

His eyes turned and he looked at Zhao Xu.

As a prince who is in charge of politics, Zhao Xu usually has no qualifications to speak, so he can only listen.

This is Duan Lian.

Who leads the army?

Zhao Shu said slowly: "The sudden rise of the Western thieves caught the Song Dynasty off guard. There was a great enemy of the Liao Kingdom in the north, which made the Song Dynasty have no time to take care of the northwest, so the Western thieves were rampant. After several subsequent battles, the Song Dynasty... was defeated!"

That's a shame.

It still makes people feel sad when they mention it now.

Han Qi even clenched his fists.

Good Shuichuan.

Li family, I am waiting for you!

"In this way, the Western Xia became a disaster, consuming countless money, food, and countless manpower and material resources, dragging the Song Dynasty into more and more difficult steps."

The Song Dynasty was really a bit born at the wrong time.

Life was pretty good, but if there was no external interference, it would only take decades of gathering and the national strength would naturally expand to an unimaginable level.

But as soon as the country was founded, a giant beast called Liao was squatting in the north, which made the Song Dynasty miserable.

Later, there was a thief named Xixia.

The national strength of the Song Dynasty was consumed in these places, and with all kinds of inappropriate things in the country, no matter how much money and food were, they could not be consumed. When it was Huizong, a big explosion finally came.

Zhao Shu remembered the past years and couldn't help feeling sad. But he immediately became excited.

"Now the Song Dynasty has been gathered for decades and its national strength is strong, which reminds me of the Hanwu in the past."

Emperor Wu of Han also obtained the savings of the previous two generations of emperors, so he had the capital to launch a war against the Huns.

The war lasted for decades, exerting the majesty of the Han Dynasty and the strong folk customs. At the end of the Han Dynasty, foreign races were still beaten by the warlords on the ground.

Any powerful empire must have such a battle.

"...In the former Tang Dynasty, Emperor Taizong slept with firewood and tasted gall, expelling the Turks. Later, the emperor continued to enter, destroyed Goguryeo, and swept across the world."

Zhao Shu said happily: "Now that the Song Dynasty has reached this moment, I am so happy. Who can teach the people of Xixia a lesson for me?"

In an instant, all the ministers in the palace held their heads with their heads raised.

"I am willing to serve Your Majesty."

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Zhao Shu couldn't help laughing.

He slowly stood up, looked down at the ministers, then looked up at the void, and said, "Would Han Qing be willing to go to the northwest?"

Han Qi looked up in disbelief, and instantly he thought of that year.

The loyal and brave soldiers of Haomichuan were still lying there. Even if they turned into corpses, they were still telling the tragedy of the past in his dream.

puff!

His huge body knelt down, and tears flashed in Han Qi's eyes. He kowtowed solemnly, "I will never return!"

He knew that this was the opportunity given to him by the government.

The last time he led the army to defeat the Liao people was full of joy, but he had regrets in the end.

northwest!

That was his sadness.

Get up wherever you fall.

"Help Han Qing get up."

Han Qi's body is too heavy, and it is difficult to get up.

The two eunuchs turned red and then they started to get Han Qi up.

Why!

It's a sin!

Shen An couldn't help but turn his face away, and his eyes were clean.

Zhao Shu was also very sad when he saw such a fat prime minister.

"This battle is divided into three groups of attacks." This is to assign the leading generals from all walks of life.

The generals in the hall were thrilled and wanted the officials to mention them.

This battle is a battle between one and the other, and being able to participate is glory.

Zhao Shu took out a piece of paper, which was the result of his discussion with the prime ministers.

"The left side attacked from Zhenrong Army and led 70,000 troops. Chen Hong..."

Chen Hong, the commander of the front office of the palace, trembled for a moment, his face turned red, and he walked out excitedly.

"You will lead the army to attack Huizhou and Xishou Army Division, and you will attack one by one, and finally join the middle lane to encircle Weizhou and attack Lingzhou."

"yes."

Chen Hong stood up happily and looked at the generals proudly.

Brother is ahead!

Zhao Shu was very happy to see the martial artist.

When you hear the battle, you will be happy, which is a good sign.

He looked at the records on the paper and said, "The right-wing leader led 50,000 troops from Suizhou to defeat Longzhou, Yinzhou, and Linfu Road to defeat the Zuoxiang Army Division. He immediately returned to the army, Hongzhou, Youzhou... and Yanzhou, but the middle road was afraid that Yanzhou would not leave them, so after taking the above-mentioned places, the right-wing army immediately moved closer to the middle road. Zhe Jizu..."

Well!

Everyone was shocked.

Big Boss, Zhe Jizu is on Linfu Road!

Zhao Shu smiled, "The right side has a lot of connection. The Zhe family has been fighting there for many years, and there is nothing more familiar to them than them. I have sent someone to inform Zhe Jizu of the fast horse and let him go lightly."

"Your Majesty, beware of the Liao people on the road of Lin Mansion!"
