After listening to Kou Zhun's words, Wang Zeng gritted his teeth and said, "Even if the officials want to patrol the place, it shouldn't be now."
Kou Zhun frowned and said, "That also depends on the wishes of the officials."
Wang Zeng approached Kou Zhun, gritted his teeth and said in a low voice: "You must persuade the official family to give up the plan to go to the northwest."
Kou Zhun was stunned for a moment, and said displeased: "It's just a lesson to Xixia, and it doesn't affect the overall situation. Why are you clinging to it?"
Upon hearing this, Wang Zeng roared angrily: "You know what a shit!"
"Ok?!"
Kou Zhun frowned.
Wang Zeng did not dare to say anything more radical, and gritted his teeth and whispered to Kou Zhun: "Do you know that the officials want to dispatch all the soldiers from the north to Xixia?"
Kou Zhun was completely stunned.
As the former chief of the Song Dynasty and the chief regent, he is very clear about the number of soldiers and horses of the Song Dynasty and the distribution of troops.
Eighty percent of the soldiers and horses of the Song Dynasty were occupied in the north.
The Song Dynasty played against Xixia and Liao, and it was the soldiers and horses of the north that had been mobilized.
When Zhao Zhen succeeded to the throne, the number of soldiers and horses in the Song Dynasty was 1.4 million.
It does not include some regiments, vassal soldiers, and village soldiers.
The 1.4 million soldiers and horses are all professional soldiers.
After the reduction of his power, the number of soldiers and horses in the Song Dynasty dropped sharply to less than 1.2 million.
Of course, he has cut more than 200,000 soldiers and horses, and he has cut far more than 200,000 soldiers and horses.
It's just that while cutting down the professional soldiers, he also rectified the township soldiers.
After some Xiang troops were cut, in order to maintain the combat effectiveness of the Xiang troops, he drew a large number of manpower from the township soldiers to make up for it.
The town soldier, now in the Great Song Dynasty, has become a mere existence in name.
Except for some special places, there are no township soldiers in other places.
Some clan soldiers were also transferred out of the forehead of the Song Dynasty.
Da Song does not support them, so there is no need to count them.
But when it's time to use it, you still have to use it.
After he sorted out the soldiers and horses of the Song Dynasty, most of them were young and strong.
This is also one of the reasons why the Song Dynasty dared to challenge Liao and Xixia.
Although the Great Song Soldiers and Horses have been cut, their combat effectiveness has risen in a straight line.
After Kou Ji took Hexi, he established the Zhenxi Army, and then through the reorganization and reorganization of the family army, the Hengshan Army was established, and the Great Song Army jumped to 1.3 million.
Whether it is the Zhenxi Army or the Hengshan Army, they are actually built on the basis of zero.
Unlike the Ningbian Army and the Zhenbei Army, they were all established by the Jinning Army and the Suide Army.
Although the Volcano and Baode armies were killed, they were few in number.
The Jinning Army and the Suide Army were not fully staffed before.
However, the Yongbyon Army and the Zhenbei Army were full.
The missing amount has also been made up.
Although the Hengshan Army incorporated part of the Zhejia Army and part of the Yinzhou Defender, the Hengshan Army was a new army and was not established with the help of other designated soldiers.
Although the Zhejia Army was powerful, it was not included in the army of the Song Dynasty.
The previous defenders of Yinzhou were only Yinzhou regiments and did not have an official designation.
The purpose of their existence is to assist the Zhejia Army and guard the Great Wall.
Kou Ji has officially included them in the establishment.
Da Song's group training is a very special existence.
Where there are heavy troops in town, the title of the group training will be added to the local town army.
The purpose is to place more officials in the army.
Where there are no heavy soldiers, but very important places, there will be group trainings under the control of the state government office.
The military pay has always been distributed by the yamen, rather than the regular military pay distributed by the court like other soldiers and horses, so it is not included in the ranks of the soldiers.
It can be said that the military system and official system of the Song Dynasty are very complicated.
It's like a mess.
Some officials are sometimes confused by the complicated military system and official system, not to mention the civilians.
It was also because of this that the number of officers and soldiers in the Song Dynasty was severely redundant.
All in all, even after a reduction, the number of soldiers and horses of the Song Dynasty is still huge.
And most of the soldiers and horses are stationed in the north.
Zhao Zhen pulled all the soldiers and horses from the north to Xixia in one breath, Kou Zhun was naturally taken aback.
When Wang Zeng saw that Kou Zhun was frightened, he hurriedly said: "The officials are doing mischief. All the soldiers and horses in the north are dispatched to Xixia. How much does it cost to eat horses and chew every day
How long will the officials stay here when they go to Xixia
If he stays for a long time, the money in the treasury will be overwhelming.
More importantly, with such a large number of soldiers and horses, to conquer Xixia, the gains outweigh the gains.
It's enough to fight Liao, let alone fight a little Xixia.
Moreover, Cao Wei is now fighting the Liao Kingdom in the land of Yanyun, and he may ask the court for help at any time.
If the official drew all the soldiers and horses to Xixia.
Then Cao Wei sent someone to ask for help, who would go
Xixia is just a disease of ringworm and scabies, and Liao is the confidant of my Da Song.
Which is lighter and heavier, you know very well in your heart that you don't need me to teach you. "
Wang Zeng put his heart to heart and told Kou Zhun all what he said in his heart.
After listening to Kou Zhun, he pondered for a long time, and said: "Since the official is willing to take all the soldiers in the north out for training, let's practice. Before that, the old man was in charge and cut some of the soldiers and horses.
But I still have a lot of soldiers and horses.
Now they are all on the battlefield and let them all fight.
If we lose, we will reorganize and abolish, and we will retain if we win.
In this way, my internal and external worries can be relieved together. "
Wang Zeng stared in amazement. He thought that his heart-to-heart words would make Kou Zhun change his mind, but he didn't expect that Kou Zhun not only didn't change his mind, but became more determined to let Zhao Zhen pull all the soldiers and horses in the north. Xixia is here.
Wang Zeng stared at Kou Zhun, and said with a shiver: "Officials are fooling around, do you follow the fooling around?"
"Mischief?!"
Kou Zhun snorted coldly, "Who gave you the confidence that made you regard Xixia as a disease of ringworm and scabies? In the eyes of the old man, Xixia is far more threatening to me than the Liao Kingdom.
The Liao state can still pacify with peace talks.
But what about Xixia
Since Xixia vassalizes my Da Song, how much benefit has it taken from me
Did they really obey my Da Song
they do not.
Not only did they fail to obey my Dasong, but they went from side to side between my Dasong and the Liao Kingdom, and they continued to grow.
After they grew, they showed their ambitions for me.
Liao is a tiger, and Xixia is a wolf.
Tigers are easy to drive, but wolves are hard to drive.
Now there is a chance and an excuse to fight Xixia in one fell swoop.
Why not do this
The lion fights the rabbit, and even goes all out.
My Da Song eradicated Xixia, why can't I go all out? "
Wang Zeng shivered with anger.
Kou Zhun continued: "Xixia is now in its weakest period. If I can take the opportunity to invade Xixia, I must be able to pacify Xixia. Once Xixia is settled, I will be able to deal with Liao people wholeheartedly. Worry about a fire in the backyard again.
If I don't take advantage of Xixia people's weakest time to attack Xixia, would it be necessary to wait for Xixia to sit down before going to attack? "
Wang Zeng said angrily: "But Cao Wei is now fighting the Liao people in the land of Yanyun. If we thrive in Xixia, we will definitely have an immeasurable impact on the war in the land of Yanyun."
Kou Zhun coldly snorted: "This time all the soldiers and horses from the north were dispatched to the northwest, the Liao people would only throw rats and restrain their hands. They would never take the opportunity to fight Cao Wei to the death.
It should be noted that the northwest is closer to the land of Yanyun than the city of Bianjing.
If the Liao people really dare to fight to the death.
The old man would admonish the officials and lead his soldiers and horses to turn to Liao.
Whether it is from Ningbian prefecture to enter the Liao State, or to go to Yanmen Pass to help, it is easy. "
Kou Zhun looked at Wang Zeng up and down, and said lightly: "Don't talk to the old man with soldiers and horses. Your king was not the kind of timid and fearful person. Now Xixia is weak, I, Song Dynasty, took advantage of it. It is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
If you send someone else to lead the army, your king will definitely not stop it.
When you talk about things with soldiers and horses, you just want to stop the officials.
Your real purpose is not to let the officials go to the northwest. "
Wang Zeng’s mind was pierced by Kou Zhun. He did not panic or ashamed. Instead, he stared at Kou Zhun and gritted his teeth and said: "The official went to the northwest, who will supervise the country? Am I Wang Zeng? I have that qualification. ?"
Only the crown prince can serve as the important task of supervising the country.
But Da Song now has no crown prince.
If Lu Yijian were there, with Wang Zeng, he would barely be able to supervise the country.
But Wang Zeng's words are a bit thin.
He is just a political affair.
The heavy responsibility of a country rests on his shoulders, and he cannot afford it.
If Zhao Zhen had a man in the northwest, no prince could inherit the throne.
At that time, hundreds of civil and military officials and royal clan members were making trouble, and Wang Zeng couldn't help him.
Kou Zhun frowned when he heard Wang Zeng's words.
After thinking about it for a while.
Kou Zhun said to Wang Zeng: "The old man goes to the official family and talks about it."
Having said this, Kou Zhun strode forward, and before Zhao Zhenlong's death, after a bow, he said: "The official should make an order to summon Zhang Zhibai to return to the court and serve as a member of the government, and supervise the country together with the king."
When Zhao Zhen heard Kou Zhun's words, he was taken aback for a moment, and after a little thought, he understood Kou Zhun's intentions.
If he left Beijing, Wang would have been involved in political affairs alone.
Not to mention Wang Zeng, even if Lu Yijian was in the court, he couldn't control Manchu civil and military affairs.
There are only two people who can hold down the civil and military of the Manchu dynasty.
One is Zhao Zhen, and the other is Kou Zhun.
Others, no way.
Summoning Zhang Zhibai to return to the court and serving as a political affair, with Wang Zeng, can barely suppress the civil and military affairs of the Manchu court.
After Zhao Zhen thought about it, he said, "As Gong Kou said, besides that, I also plan to take some people with him."
Kou Zhun was taken aback and nodded slowly, very satisfied with what Zhao Zhen did.
Bring some people with you, bring those people
Of course it is those who sting and like to make trouble.
Zhao Zhen made a decision and did not return to the palace, so he made an decree in front of the Donghua Gate and sent someone to pass the decree.
Seeing this, the Manchumen and Martial Arts knew that Zhao Zhen was going north, and could not stop him.
I can only stand in front of Donghua Gate with a bitter face.
Some ministers who were named by Zhao Zhen and asked to go with them had even more bitter faces.
Wang Zengru lost his concubine.
After Zhao Zhen made his order, he resolutely took Kou Zhun and left Bianjing.
Those ministers who were named by him rushed home one by one to prepare things, and then followed Zhao Zhen's footsteps northward.
When Zhao Zhen left the gate of Bianjing city, he happened to ran into Queen Cao who was hurried to the palace.
Zhao Zhen summoned Empress Cao to Longhu, and explained one or two things.
Empress Cao had no objection to Zhao Zhen's going to the northwest.
Empress Cao knew how Zhao Zhen felt towards Kou Ji.
If Zhao Zhen doesn't see Kou Ji with his own eyes, I'm afraid he will be awake at night.
He is a king, but he is also an individual, and everyone has a heart.
He also had times when his heart was hurt, and there were also times when his heart ached.
Empress Cao is a true queen, but she is also Zhao Zhen's wife.
She needs to take care of her husband's mood.
More importantly, Empress Cao is a woman from Jiangmen. Deep down, she also hopes that her Xianggong will have some achievements in martial arts.
Empress Cao knew exactly what Zhao Zhen worked hard on martial arts every day.
Zhao Zhen also has an ambition.
If his ambition is not satisfied, I am afraid it will become a lifelong regret.
As for Zhao Zhen's safety, although Queen Cao was a little worried, she was not as nervous as Wang Zeng.
As Zhao Zhen, he went to the battlefield and had no chance to kill him on the battlefield.
She knew how many troops there were in the northwest.
If someone can hurt Zhao Zhen under the defense of so many soldiers and horses, then even if Zhao Zhen hides in the palace, they can still hurt Zhao Zhen.
After all, the defenders in the city of Bianjing are incomparable with the soldiers and horses in the northwest.
Regardless of the defenders of Bianjing City, they are all very famous.
In terms of combat effectiveness, the Tianwu Army can see it.
Others, maybe even the Xiang army in the frontier army can't beat it.
As for whether Zhao Zhen will follow his grandfather's footsteps, Empress Cao is not worried.
Zhao Zhen’s grandfather, Emperor Taizong’s Zhao Guangyi, was truly above tens of thousands, and no one could cure him, so he could go to the battlefield as he pleased, with two arrows in his body.
Zhao Zhen is different.
There is Kou Zhun.
If Kou Zhun is angry, Zhao Zhen will definitely be subdued.
Everyone thinks that Zhao Zhen is very domineering now, but Empress Cao, the person beside her, knows it very well.
Zhao Zhen's heart is still benevolent and charitable.
It's just that he hid those benevolence and charity, and didn't show it to outsiders.
Kou Zhun helped Zhao Zhen walk all the way when Zhao Zhen was the most lonely and helpless.
In Zhao Zhen's mind, Kou was not a courtier, but an elder.
If the two are right.
Zhao Zhen will definitely be soft to Kou Zhun.
He will be soft, not because he is weak, but because he respects Kou Zhun.
Zhao Zhen was behind and called many veterans in the courtroom as veterans, but he had never called Kou Zhun.
Although Kou Zhun had a precedent for forcing the king on the battlefield, he would never let the king really take risks.
When necessary, he lays down his old life and will keep the king.
After Zhao Zhen confessed that Queen Cao was the assistant to the Sixth Palace and dealt with royal matters, he went all the way north.
Zhao Zhen and Kou Zhun are gone.
Bianjing City did not fall into silence because of this, but completely rioted.
The officials pointed by Zhao Zhen, after packing up their things, hurriedly chased Zhao Zhen one by one.
After the upper and lower Tiger Wing Army and the Tianwu Army were sent to the camp, they took the civilian husband and escorted them, and also followed in the footsteps of Zhao Zhen.
Zhao Zhen went out of Beijing and had a huge impact.
Not only the Bianjing city followed the noise, but the entire north of Bianjing city also followed the noise.
