Kou Ji looked at the serious Kou Zhun, smiled indifferently, and said, "Grandfather laughed..."
Kou Zhun said with a sullen face, "Does the old man seem to be laughing with you?"
Kou Ji slowly put away the smile on his face, staring at Kou Zhun earnestly: "If grandfather really intends to hand me over to the Liao people to vent his anger, he won't call me over for questioning, he will definitely send someone first. I'll talk about it if I win it."
The gloomy look on Kou Zhun's face gradually dissipated, and he said with emotion, "I know I can't scare your kid."
Kou Ji was also happy when he heard this.
Kou Zhun looked at Kou Ji and asked, "How good are you staying in the mansion, why go out to tease the Liao people?"
Kou Ji said frankly: "I also happened to see the Liao people go to Daxiangguo Temple. I didn't think about paying attention to them, but they closed the gate of Daxiangguo Temple and didn't let people from Honghu Temple accompany me. I think there is something here. Eighty percent was tricky, so I rushed in recklessly and tried it."
Hearing this, Kou Zhun nodded slowly and said, "What is the result of the trial?"
Kou Ji groaned: "Something was discovered. I found not only Liao people but also Tubo people in Daxiangguo Temple?"
Kou Zhun was taken aback, frowned and said, "How come the Tubo people and the Liao people got together..."
Kou Zhun mumbled, looked at Kou Ji and asked, "What about Tubo?"
"Qingtang!"
"Qingtang?!"
Kou Zhun looked surprised and thought about it.
After a while, he stared at Kou Ji solemnly, and asked, "What did the Qingtang people look for in the Liao people? Could it be that they want to abandon my Song and go to the Liao people
Kou Ji slowly shook his head, "Xixia has repeatedly offended Qingtang, and the people of Qingtang went to the Liao people to join forces with the Liao people to deal with Xixia.
Hearing this, Kou Zhun frowned and groaned: "Xixia has repeatedly invaded Qingtang, this old man knows. The Qingtang people find the Liao people and want to join the Liao people to deal with Xixia, and the old man can understand.
But Qingtang is a vassal of my Da Song. Instead of looking for me, he went to the Liao people. Why? "
Hearing this, Kou Ji hesitated for a moment, and asked, "The people from Qingtang really wanted to find me, Da Song, will I help?"
Kou Zhun was taken aback and shook his head slowly.
Qingtang and Xixia belong to the Song Dynasty.
In terms of status, Xixia is far above Qingtang.
The title given to them by the Song court alone is enough to explain everything.
Li Deming, the lord of Xixia, was named the king of Xixia.
The Qingtang Zanpu Cape Siluo has not yet obtained the canonization of the Song Dynasty.
In terms of strength and weakness, Li Deming is naturally strong, and the corner is weak.
If Da Song wanted to win, he would naturally win Xixia first.
However, Xixia is obviously an unfamiliar white-eyed wolf.
Seeing Kou Zhun, Kou Ji shook his head and said solemnly: "Even you think the court will not help Qingtang people, so naturally other people in the court will not agree to help Qingtang people.
The people of Qingtang must also know this, so they went to discuss with the people of Liao. "
Kou Zhun was one of the few main fighting factions in the dynasty, and even he felt that the court would not help the Qingtang people, so those leading and sects in the court might not even have the idea of considering this matter.
Kou Zhun asked, "Did they discuss the results?"
Kou Ji shook his head.
Kou Zhun nodded slowly, "That's good..."
Kou Ji looked puzzled.
Kou Zhun explained: "This may be a strategy of Xixia."
Kou Ji stunned: "Qingtang people ask Liao people to borrow troops, what does it have to do with Xixia?"
Kou Zhun stared at Kou Ji for a moment, and pointed out: "You should pay more attention to the situation in Qingtang, Xixia, and Liao. If the old man's expectation is not bad, the person who came to the Liao should be the protagonist of Qingtang. Luo's people?"
Kou Ji nodded.
Kou Zhun continued: "Although Jiao Siluo is the lord of Qingtang, half of Qingtang's power is in the hands of Qingtang Lunbu Wen Buqi, and Wen Buqi secretly colluded with Xixia.
The Jiao Si Luo sent a conspiracy with the Liao people, and there must be a gentle person behind him staring at it.
It was correct that the Liao people did not agree to conspiracy with Jiao Si Luo.
If you really agree to conspiracy with Jiao Si Luo, you will definitely have a big somersault. "
Kou Ji frowned and said, "Since Qingtang's theory of Wen Buqi colluded with Xixia, why does Xixia repeatedly violate Qingtang? It stands to reason that they should wear the same pair of pants."
Kou Zhun said quietly, "Perhaps Qingtang and Xixia are acting. They dug a big hole together and want to see that the bully will fall into it. Then they took the opportunity to take the bully and satiated and ate all at once. support."
Hearing this, Kou Ji groaned: "The key to Qingtang's conspiracy with Xixia lies in Qingtang Lunbu Wen Buqi. If we support Jiao Si Luo, we will defeat Wen Buqi.
Then we have one less opponent and one more friend. "
Kou Zhun pondered for a moment, shook his head, and sighed: "In that case, Xixia will be offended. Although Xixia is a vassal of my Da Song, it has already grown into a towering tree and has been out of my Da Song's control.
My Da Song approached Xixia with a strategy of tenderness and wooing.
I don't want to anger Xixia, let alone go to war with Xixia.
If my Da Song went to war with Xixia, the Liao people would definitely not sit back and wait for death. "
Kou Ji said solemnly: "Huairou, there is a limit to wooing, right? Li Deming has already violated the monarchy and established the imperial palace in Xingqing, Lingzhou. He obviously wanted to betray the Song Dynasty and establish a nation.
Can we tolerate this? "
Kou Zhun glanced at Kou Zhun and sighed, "The old man already knew about this. The queen mother meant to open one eye and close one eye and let him go. As long as he doesn't infringe on us, Da Song, he wants to do what we do. Don't stop it.
The queen mother also said that the first emperor had just died, the official family had just ascended the throne, and the court had been subjected to the rebellion of Zhou Huaizheng. Now the court is unstable and it is not suitable to use swordsmen. "
When Kou Ji heard this, he said annoyed: "When did grandfather learn to listen to the Queen Mother?"
"Boom!"
Kou Zhun shot Kou bus, and said angrily: "The old man didn't want to listen, and he didn't want to listen. When the old man learned that Li Deming had violated the monarchy and established the imperial palace in Xingqing, Lingzhou, the old man wanted to send troops immediately to give him. A lesson.
But the military power is not in the hands of the old man, and the majority of Manchu civil and military advocates that peace is the most important thing.
What can the old man do
Can you really cover the sky with one hand when you are the old man, the grand teacher of the regent
Now that the old man wants to use one soldier and one soldier, Liu E must approve it.
The old man felt aggrieved. "
Kou Ji heard the helplessness in Kou Zhun's words, and the fire in his heart went away for half a minute. He said in a deep voice, "Are we going to see Xixia sitting big?"
Kou Zhun gritted his teeth and said: "The old man is unwilling to watch, but the old man is helpless. If we move, the Liao people will definitely move. Then it will be an earth-shaking battle. The court can't stand this earth-shaking battle now."
After a pause, Kou Zhun said with a heavy voice: "The Xixia people have a good calculation. They use the Liao people to contain us, and they use us to contain the Liao people. Then, we are constraining each other, step by step."
Kou Ji froze for a moment, and said in deep thought: "Step by step in the cracks..."
Kou Zhun glanced at Kou Ji and sighed: "Your metaphor is very clever, Xixia is like this."
Kou Ji thought about it and said seriously: "Then we should support Jiao Si Luo and Qingtang."
Kou Zhun looked at Kou Ji with an unexpected look, and said in deep thought, "You want to help Qingtang sit up and break the current situation of three-way checks and balances."
Kou Ji nodded heavily.
Kou Zhun sighed again and said, "The method is a good method, but how can you be sure that the Qingtang people won't join forces with Xixia to deal with my Da Song after they are in college
In the past, the reason why my Da Song was able to allow party members to establish a foothold in the northwest was to train them so that they could become a weapon for my Da Song to deal with the Liao people.
But now
Not only did they fail to help us hurt the Liao people, but they might hurt us at any time.
The old man watched the party leader from a tribe leader, sitting in the position of King Xixia.
We have already raised a Xixia King, we can't raise another Qingtang King. "
Kou Ji frowned and said, "Qingtang is different from Xixia..."
Kou Zhun frowned slightly, staring at Kou Ji and said, "Did you take advantage of Qingtang people?"
Kou Ji shook his head.
Kou Zhun asked, "Then why do you frequently help Qingtang people with good things?"
Kou Ji said seriously: "I just don't want to watch Xixia sit down again. As you said just now, you looked at the party leader from a tribal leader to the king of Xixia.
I don't want to see King Xixia, from a small vassal king to an emperor. "
Kou Zhun's face sank, and he shouted: "If Xixia really dares to establish a country, I will definitely fight them."
Kou Ji pondered for a moment, then clicked his mouth and sighed: "I'm afraid I won't be able to beat it then..."
Kou Zhun stared and said, "I can't clean up the Liao people, and I can't clean up a little Xixia."
Kou Ji shook his head and said, "If Xixia is so indulged, it will not be a little Xixia."
Kou Zhun was taken aback, narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at Kou Ji, and questioned: "Do you think Xixia will really build a country, will really fight Da Song, and Da Song will really be defeated?"
Kou Zhun asked three times.
Kou Ji who asked was stunned for a while.
Kou Zhun guessed that Kou Ji Bacheng had received God's revelation again, so he repeatedly spoke out, targeting Xixia.
So it is necessary for him to ask a clear question.
Kou Ji thought that Kou Zhun was asking him to help analyze the situation. After a while, he groaned: "The Western Xia King Li Deming established the imperial palace in Xingqing, Lingzhou, and his ambition for being a wolf has become clear.
If I don't make a move, Xixia will establish a country.
Once Xixia was established, he betrayed my Da Song.
In order to maintain our national prestige, I, Da Song, must fight Xixia.
I have not entered a single inch of land since Taizong’s Gaoliang River battle.
The soldiers have long forgotten what it's like to open up new territory.
The Manchu dynasty civil and military did not have the mind to open up the territory, just want to blindly guard the inheritance left by the ancestors to live.
If you really want to fight against the ambitious Xixia people, how can you be undefeated
How does a tiger that has been raised in captivity for many years become an enemy of a lone wolf that has been sleeping and sleeping for years? "
Kou Zhun opened his mouth to refute, so he heard Kou Ji say again: "Above the court, there are many generals, but Cao Wei is probably the only one who can really help the court open up the frontiers. But Cao Wei is already old..."
Kou Ji glanced at Kou Zhun and continued: "The remaining generals either climbed up with Mengbu, or climbed up with a little bit of military merit after having resisted the Liao people at the border for many years.
If they play defensively, it's okay.
But if they were to let go of their hands and feet to attack, they would not know how to fight.
More importantly, once the Song, Xia, and Liao wars go to war, it will be a terrifying battle.
The number of people moving is one million.
Throwing away civilian husbands, there are still hundreds of thousands of troops.
Of those generals in the court, how many can command hundreds of thousands of people to fight? How many people have commanded hundreds of thousands of battles
Not many.
Even if you draw a tall one from the dwarf, lead your troops out.
The imperial court will not rest assured to hand millions of people into his hands.
At the very least, three to four civilians will be sent to serve as the supervising army.
A gang of supervising troops who have never been on the battlefield checks and balances the leading generals and has the right to intervene in the war command at will.
How can you be undefeated? "
After hearing Kou Ji's words, Kou Zhun sat there with a gloomy face and said nothing.
What Kou Ji said will basically happen.
Because in the past, the court dealt with wars in this way.
Whenever there is a general who is holding more than 50,000 soldiers and horses in his hand, the court will send a high enough official to sit on the town.
After the expedition, the important ministers not only have the power to supervise the war, but also the power to intervene in the war and command, and even the power to take over the military power in an emergency.
Kou Zhun was silent for a long time, staring at Kou Ji and said, "It is the national policy of Taizu and Taizong to suppress martial arts with culture."
Kou Ji questioned: "In order to maintain the national policy set by Taizu and Taizong, even Jiangshan Sheji was ignored? Taizu and Taizong set this national policy to prevent military commanders from following the actions of Taizu back then.
This national policy was originally intended to protect the Zhao's imperial power.
But it has now become a moth that endangers Zhao's imperial power. "
Kou Zhun glanced at Kou Ji, and said coldly: "The old man is not a pedantic person, nor is he a ruthless scholar. He will not deliberately suppress military commanders for the benefit of scholar-bureaucrats, regardless of the safety of the country.
What you said to the old man is useless. "
After a pause, Kou Zhun said again: "What you said makes sense. The old man will find ways to trouble Xixia and prevent Xixia from establishing the country. But he can only help Xixia find trouble.
If you really want to fight Xixia, you have to wait for the moment when the official takes back the imperial power from Liu E.
The official family is not pro-government, and the imperial power cannot be unified.
It is not so easy to attack Xixia.
Even if the old man would agree, Liu E would not agree. "
Kou Ji sighed and nodded slowly, "I understand..."
Kou Zhun pondered for a moment, and said quietly, "I don't know if I can wait until then..."
He glanced at Kou Ji, and exhorted: "If the old man really can't wait for that time, I will need you to help the officials at that time."
Kou Ji nodded slowly.
Kou Zhun stared at Kou Ji, and said: "You beat the Liao people at Daxiangguo Temple and the Liao people rioted in the court. You don't need to worry about it. Every year after the Liao people arrive in the city of Bianjing, they always make trouble. North Korea is used to civil and military affairs."
Kou Ji whispered: "I am not afraid of Liao people, I am afraid of my own people."
Kou Zhun was taken aback, frowned and said, "You mean those in the court who cater to the Liao people?"
Kou Ji nodded heavily.
Kou Zhun said in a deep voice: "They can't turn the sky in the hands of the old man."
