Can it be great
What is Cao Wei's status now
In Li Zhaoliang's words, that is, halfway through the march, there is a possibility of sudden death.
Empress Cao and Zhao Run are going to ask Cao Wei for what
Must ask Cao Wei to come out and help Zhao Zhen.
It's hard to say whether Cao Wei can help Zhao Zhen after he leaves the mountain, but if he goes to Zhendingfu battlefield, nine out of ten will die.
Cao Wei was the Great Song Jiangshan Sheji, and died in front of the two armies.
His credit must be remembered by the world, and it must also be remembered by Zhao Zhen.
Zhao Run will be promoted to the crown prince in the future.
Even if Zhao Run made any mistakes, Zhao Zhen would probably consider Cao Wei's merits and forgive him.
Even if the other concubines gave birth to a prince, they couldn't compare with Zhao Run.
Because they did not have a grandfather who could be called a military god willing to die for them.
Although Empress Cao prevented Zhao Zhen from making Zhao Run the crown prince, she used Cao Wei to tightly tie the position of the crown prince and Zhao Run together.
How can such a method not be admired.
Although the three of Lu Yijian saw Empress Cao's methods and were shocked by Empress Cao's methods, they did not stop them.
Because from the beginning, the three of them had the intention to invite Cao Wei out of the mountain.
Even if Cao Wei would die if he went to Zhending Mansion, they also wanted Cao Wei to come out of the mountain to add a guarantee for Zhao Zhen.
It was just that Li Zhaoliang desperately stopped, and the three of them did not go to Cao Wei.
Now Empress Cao takes Zhao Run to find Cao Wei, which is considered to have complied with their thoughts.
As long as they can ensure that Zhao Zhen is safe and sound, even if Empress Cao appears in the mansion now and asks them to make Zhao Run the crown prince when they die, they will not hesitate to agree.
Anyway, they are the most staunch supporters of the eldest son inheritance system from beginning to end.
"With Cao Wei coming forward, the three of us finally don't have to worry about the safety of the officials..."
Lu Yijian couldn't help sighing.
Wang Zeng frowned and said, "Cao Wei's body is not good..."
Zhang Zhibai resolutely said: "People use a soft sedan to lift him to Zhending Mansion."
Lu Yijian pondered: "Will someone play human beings as animals?"
Wang Zeng said coldly: "The old man tore his mouth."
For the safety of Zhao Zhen, the three of Wang Zeng didn't care about 500,000 soldiers and horses.
What a soft sedan.
All day long clamoring that people should not be used as animals, and I have not seen the big private households relax their squeeze on tenants.
One by one to fight for fame, Wang Zeng and the three were too lazy to pay attention.
If it really affects the country, then it is not a pity to die.
When Lu Yijian and Zhang Zhibai heard what Wang Zeng said, they nodded in agreement.
After nodding.
Lu Yijian said with emotion: "Once Cao Wei is killed in battle, there will be no one to stop the crown prince of King Shou."
Zhang Zhibai hesitated, "Kou Ji may be able to block one or two."
Wang Zeng snorted: "Let Kou Ji follow Cao Wei and die for a certain prince? Kou Ji dares to die, but who dares to bear it?"
Kou Ji is not what it used to be, and Kou Ji's life and death are enough to influence the country's capital.
If Kou Ji died unnaturally, then Song Ke would be in chaos.
Lu Yijian pondered and said, "I'm afraid the officials will not be burdened."
Wang Zeng and Zhang Zhibai nodded in agreement.
As Zhao Zhen said to Chen Lin before, the king wants the minister to die, and the minister has to die, it is just a nonsense to deceive the people.
If he ordered Kou Ji to die, Kou Ji followed his wishes.
Kou Zhun should die in front of Zhaoxun's Chongde Pavilion without hesitation.
The soldiers and horses on the four sides may rush into Bianjing City, please go down for Kou Ji's funeral.
Today, the general who commanded the imperial army of the Song Dynasty had a lot of friendship with Kou Ji.
It's not Kou Ji's doorman, or Kou Ji's hand-picked.
If Kou Ji died naturally, they would surely lead their troops to seek justice for Kou Ji.
"Don't talk about it, the official family left Beijing and handed over all government affairs to the three of us. We can't neglect."
Zhang Zhibai said something.
Lu Yijian and Wang Zeng nodded together.
Subsequently, the three dismissed the hundred officials and ordered them to perform their duties.
The three people returned to the political affairs hall to handle government affairs.
Just when the three people rushed to the political affairs hall.
Empress Cao has taken Zhao Run to the Wenchang Academy.
Empress Cao didn't alarm anyone, but took Zhao Run quietly to Cao Wei's residence in Wenchang Academy.
Empress Cao didn't enter the door after arriving at Cao Wei's residence. She just stood outside and told Zhao Run, "Kneel down! Kow!"
Zhao Run's eyes widened in astonishment.
Me, Zhao Run, the eldest son of the prince, kowtow
Mother, are you sure you are right
Empress Cao glared at Zhao Run and said sharply, "Knock!"
Zhao Run felt wronged to kneel down, but saw Cao Tong walking out of the house where Cao Wei lived, and said with a complicated expression: "Four uncle said, he can't bear the gift of the eldest son. But you beg him. He agreed."
Empress Cao's eyes turned red in an instant.
Seeing this, Cao Yu sighed and said, "The fourth uncle also said, my Cao family members bleed without tears."
Empress Cao said respectfully to the house, "My niece would like to follow the teachings of my uncle."
Cao Tong nodded slowly, without saying more, and returned to the house.
Empress Cao blinked red, and sternly said to Zhao Run: "Go!"
Zhao Run obediently followed Queen Cao out of the Wenchang Academy.
After leaving the door of Wenchang Academy, Zhao Run couldn't help but ask: "Mother, why are you bringing your baby here?"
Empress Cao said with moist eyes: "Since you can't please Kou Hui, this palace can only ask your fourth uncle to lay down his life for you. Remember, if your fourth grandfather died on the battlefield this time, it would be for you. Lay down his life."
Zhao Run stared at Empress Cao stupidly.
Empress Cao didn't explain much, but left Wenchang Academy with Zhao Run.
After Empress Cao left the Wenchang Academy, Cao Wei appeared outside the house with the help of Cao Tong.
In the first month, Bianjing was dry and cold.
Some of Cao Wei's old injuries were not cold-resistant, so the whole body ached so badly that he had to recuperate.
Had it not been for Empress Cao to rush to Wenchang Academy to invite him out of the mountain, he would probably not come out until the beginning of spring when he lay down.
"Order someone to prepare a carriage and send me to chase the official..."
Cao Wei had long expected that someone would invite him out of the mountain, so he had already packed his bags. After he left the house, he gave Cao Tong an order.
Cao Tong hesitated for a while, and asked, "Sixth Uncle... Really want to go?"
Cao Wei glanced at Cao Tong, "For public or private, I have to go."
Cao Tong sighed and ordered people to prepare things.
Kou Zhun didn’t know when he arrived in front of Cao Wei’s house. He saw Cao Tong carrying a large package next to Cao Wei, cursing and saying: "A bunch of ineffective things, I don’t have the skills, and I have to ask Lao Tzu to do it for you. Go and die."
When Cao Yu heard this, he gave a wry smile without refuting it.
Kou Zhun glared at him, then looked at Cao Wei, and reprimanded: "Children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren. Don't be a cow or horse for your children and grandchildren. You are a sick seedling, and now you need someone to support you when you walk on the battlefield. ?"
Cao Wei smiled bitterly, "Everyone knows the truth, but how many people can let it go when things happen?"
Kou Zhun curled his lips in disdain, "Old man, let it go!"
Cao Wei said angrily: "That's your grandson. Not to mention the suppression of the Manchu civil and military, there are countless capable ministers. His future achievements may be higher than you, so you can naturally let go."
Speaking of this, Cao Wei sighed: "I am different. Behind me is the entire Cao family. The Cao family has reached the generation of Cao Tu, and there are not many of them. Cao Tu is barely an individual, but he is not proficient in military strategy. , Only know how to plan on money.
My Cao family is based on military exploits. If there is no military exploits, my Cao family would be no different from the Shi family that has died out.
The official family now can't tolerate people eating idle meals.
I have to accumulate more credit for my children and grandchildren while I can still move. "
Kou Zhun asked somewhat unexpectedly: "Aren't you trying to help Zhao Run win the crown prince?"
Cao Wei shook his head and smiled and said: "If you kill two birds with one stone, why do you say so clearly. When I get out of the door of Wenchang Academy, I will tell people that I am trying to help Song Dynasty and shroud horse leather.
If I die on the battlefield, I will definitely win both fame and fortune. "
Kou Zhun pointed at Cao Wei and suddenly didn't know what to say.
Whether Cao Wei is for children and grandchildren, for Zhao Run, or for the wish of the Shroud of Horse Leather, there is no way to investigate it carefully.
A person who made great contributions to the Song Dynasty is now going to die for the Song Dynasty, even if he is selfish, what about it
After all, he gave everything for Da Song.
Kou Zhun glared at Cao Wei and said cursingly: "The old man sent someone to find you a soft sedan chair, so that people can carry you to Zhending Mansion, lest you die on the road. If you want to die, you should die in Zhending Mansion, you Where is the tomb of Cao's family ancestor? It just happens to be buried in, saving trouble.
It's not like an old man, who buried a servant and had to move his ancestral tomb to Bianjing. "
Cao Wei hesitated: "Are you not afraid of someone saying that you treat people as animals?"
Kou Zhun stared and said: "So what? They can still eat the old man and fail? Annoyed the old man, the old man molested his old mother, do you dare to say something hard to the old man?"
Cao Wei couldn't laugh or cry after hearing this.
At Kou Zhun's age, even if he lays down his face and commits assholes, no one can do anything about him.
Can you do whatever you want at an older age
In the Song Dynasty, old age can really do whatever they want.
Kou Zhun yelled to find a sedan chair for Cao Wei, but the sedan chair from the Kou Mansion had not been delivered to the Wenchang Academy. The soft sedan chair prepared by the three of Lu Yijian for Cao Wei was sent to the foot of the Wenchang Academy.
Cao Wei heard that the three of Lu Yijian had brought him a sedan chair, and smiled at Kou Zhun: "It seems that I am going to Zhending Mansion, which is what everyone expects."
Kou Zhun yelled, "Everyone is not at ease, and every one is shameless."
With the help of Cao Tong, Cao Wei gave a deep salute to Kou Zhun.
Kou Zhun felt a little uncomfortable and wanted to swear, but in the end he resisted, and muttered in a low voice: "Don't die... The old man recently looked at those guys in the courtroom that was not pleasing to his eyes. The old man is waiting for you to come back and go to Donghuamen Block them.
When the time comes, one person will ask them for two copper plates, then let them enter the Donghua Gate, and slap them if they don't give it.
You have to come back alive to protect the old man. The old man is afraid that he will be beaten to death if he makes too much trouble. "
After hearing this, Cao Wei was taken aback, knowing that Kou Zhun was talking assholes, but still seriously responded: "I am a military minister!"
Kou Zhun said with disdain: "How great is the military minister? How about the grandson who shoulders the important task of privy envoy than the old man?"
The implication is that his grandson Kou Ji has acted as a secret envoy, and civil and military are no longer different in his eyes.
Cao Wei's eyes reddened slightly, "Then wait for me to come back and go to Donghuamen with you to block the door."
Compressed by the literati for a lifetime, and suddenly recognized by the literati's most respected number one, Cao Wei was really sad.
Da Song's martial artist finally stood up.
Not bad, not bad...
Cao Wei got down to the Wenchang Academy with a complicated mood, took his bags and a few veterans, sitting in a soft sedan chair, swaying towards Zhending Mansion.
After Cao Wei left, Kou Zhun sat in the Wenchang Academy and cursed Bantian Niang.
Frankly speaking, Lu Yijian, Wang Zeng, and Zhang Zhibai are not sons of man and use them to death.
In Kou Zhun's view, as soon as Zhao Zhen left, the three people in Bianjing City were in charge of Lu Yijian.
If they did not acquiesce in this matter, Cao Wei would not be able to leave Beijing at all.
If Kou Tianci hadn't appeared in time to appease Kou Zhun, Kou Zhun might have rushed into the city of Bianjing, giving Lu Yijian a new father.
Just when Kou Zhun scolded his mother.
Zhao Zhen led the troops and horses to leave the boundary of Kaifeng Mansion.
After leaving Kaifeng Mansion, Zhao Zhen got off his horse and took a carriage instead.
It's not that he likes to enjoy, but that the safety factor of sitting in a carriage is higher than that of riding a horse.
Zhao Zhen knew that he was only here to go to Zhending Mansion.
So he is not willing to make trouble for the soldiers.
As soon as Zhao Zhen got into the carriage, a group of three thousand people joined his marching team.
The leader was an old man with gray hair, and many soldiers in the army were surprised when he saw him.
Anyone who knows him knows that he is dead in the official document.
But now he appeared alive, and also appeared in the queue of soldiers and horses led by Zhao Zhen.
Then his previous death was somewhat intriguing.
But no one went to ask this matter.
Because I am not qualified to ask.
The reason why the old man didn't conceal himself and appeared in front of the people openly is because he appeared this time and shouldered a heavy responsibility. He was bound to meet some people who had seen him in the past, so he couldn't hide his head and show his tail.
Zhao Zhen didn't let him hide his head and show his tail, but instead ordered him to show up.
He is Wuxun, he is dead or alive, and other people can't control or control it.
Zhao Zhen was the only one who could manage and control.
When the old man arrived in Zhao Zhen's army, he left the manpower he had brought and rode his horse to Zhao Zhen's carriage.
"The criminal minister is respectful, see the official..."
In the carriage, Zhao Zhen's voice sounded slowly.
"Your merits in recent years are enough to eliminate your sins. I can use you, but you cannot be a minister."
Gao Chu Gong was taken aback and understood the meaning of Zhao Zhen's words. He solemnly said: "Cao Min Gao Gong Gong, see official..."
"Get into the carriage and talk."
Zhao Zhen said lightly.
The high place respectfully agreed, bowed onto the carriage, and entered the carriage. He didn't dare to sit down, just bowed and stood aside.
When Zhao Zhen first ascended the throne, he was a doll in Gao Chugong's eyes. Gao Chugong only respected the dragon chair he was sitting on, but not him.
Now, many years have passed.
Goodbye to Zhao Zhen, Gao Chugong no longer awed the dragon chair he was sitting on, but awed him instead.
Zhao Zhen's reign is becoming more and more powerful, and the emperor's mind is becoming more and more skillful.
The ruling and opposition parties now dare not fear him, probably the grandfather and grandson of a certain Kou.
The other people in front of him are really mice seeing the cat, so pitiful and well-behaved.
Zhao Zhen looked up and down at the heights, and said calmly: "You are a lot older..."
Gao Chugong accompanied the smiling face and said, "The minister is more than eighty, and only one step away from ninety, so naturally he is old."
Zhao Zhen nodded and said, "The mental head is good. If Cao Wei has your mental head, I don't have to rush to Zhending Mansion myself."
Hearing this, Gao Fang Gong said decisively: "The minister is no worse than Cao Wei."
Zhao Zhen laughed and said, "You can tell jokes to make me happy."
Not worse than Cao Wei
Kidding
Although Cao Wei didn't have any great achievements in destroying the country, he has not been defeated since he was enlisted in the army. It is imaginable how powerful it is.
He was born at the wrong time. If he was born in the reign of Emperor Taizu, he would be no worse than those founding generals.
You know, from ancient times to the present, the veterans who have fought on the battlefield for decades have not missed a defeat, almost all of them are famous in the annals of history.
Although Gao Chu Gong has also fought on the battlefield for decades, his achievements are more than a star and a half worse than Cao Wei.
Gao Chugong heard Zhao Zhen's ridicule, and did not blush. Instead, he said righteously: "Cao Min is 80 years old and can still fight for the country."
Zhao Zhen nodded and said, "In terms of age, you have an absolute advantage."
Gao Chugong grinned.
Zhao Zhen waved his hand and said: "Okay, the soldiers and horses outside will be handed over to you. Then the war against the Liao people is also handed over to you. I will not intervene in military affairs, but I must remind you.
This battle can be won, but cannot be defeated. "
Gao Chugong questioned: "What about the peace?"
Zhao Zhen's face straightened, "There is no peace between Da Song and Liao."
Highly nodded solemnly.
Immediately he withdrew from the carriage and went to contact the Tianwu Army and the soldiers holding the Japanese Army.
Zhao Zhen had already sent his plan to call him out of the mountain last year.
He has been busy for more than two months, and he already has a draft in his heart, knowing how to fight the war ahead.
When there is a high place to lead the soldiers, Zhao Zhen will also be free.
He sat in the carriage and silently watched.
Of course, he didn't always sit in the carriage.
He picks an hour every day and rides his horse around in the army.
Let the soldiers see him.
Let the soldiers know that he is with them.
Zhao Zhen knew how much influence an emperor would have when he was in the army.
Because his grandfather and his father told him through personal experience.
When an emperor sits in the army, the soldiers can explode with twelve points of morale.
Evidence of the battle of Tanyuan.
If an emperor sits in the army, does not understand military affairs, but arbitrarily intervenes in the war, it is very likely that the entire battle will be defeated.
The three northern expeditions of Emperor Taizong are proof.
Therefore, what Zhao Zhen had to do was to let the soldiers see him, but he didn't intervene in anything.
When the army passed by the Daming Mansion.
Cao Wei chased up in the soft sedan chair.
I saw Gao Chu Gong's energetic guidance in the army.
Cao Wei just gave him a word, "Go away!"
Gao Chugong immediately blushed, staring at Cao Wei, who was helped out from the soft sedan, and his face turned pale, wishing to eat him.
Cao Wei didn't seem to see the red eyes from high places, and said coldly: "Go where you should be."
Gao Chu Gong finally failed to say a hard word.
It's not that he can't, but he doesn't dare.
Since Cao Wei has appeared, the position of the head coach may not be his place.
Cao Wei becomes the coach, he must be a general in the army.
The generals in the army shake their faces with the coach, and they will die very quickly.
How fast is it
Once Cao Wei formally takes over the position of coach, he can immediately kill him to sacrifice his power.
When Zhao Zhen learned that Cao Wei had arrived, he hurriedly jumped off the carriage and rushed to Cao Wei's side. Seeing Cao Wei's face pale and sickly standing there, Zhao Zhen said with a worried expression: "Aiqing is in Bianjing. It’s the same, why do you spare your life here?"
Cao Wei solemnly saluted Zhao Zhen, "I am willing to do my best for the officials and die."
Zhao Zhen stepped forward and held up Cao Wei's arms, and said in a deep voice, "Aiqing, your body bones can't stand the fatigue."
Cao Wei smiled indifferently, "It doesn't matter... Even if the minister is dead, he still has to eat two pieces of meat from the Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu."
"Aiqing..."
Zhao Zhen shouted.
Cao Wei continued with a smile and said: "The last time the minister led the army to the north, he only won the five states of Liao and recovered Yanyun. The result was not achieved. In this Northern Expedition, the minister intends to make up for his previous regrets.
Everyone in the Song Dynasty has this aspiration, and the officials must not let the officials die with hatred. "
Zhao Zhen originally wanted to persuade Cao Wei to go back, but Cao Wei said it all, and Zhao Zhen could only keep him in the army.
Zhao Zhen said to Cao Wei: "You are ill and riding on a sedan chair. I am afraid it will be inconvenient. It is better to get in my carriage, which is spacious and not bumpy."
Cao Wei thought about it, but did not refuse, nodded and agreed to the matter.
He went to Zhending Mansion this time, but he didn't really go to die.
There are more or less Zhanliao people in his heart, and Yanyun's thoughts are restored.
So he didn't want to be killed by the bumps.
Cao Wei accompanied Zhao Zhen into the carriage, and Zhao Zhen ordered Cao Wei to take over the position of the head coach of the Northern Expedition.
Cao Wei assumed the position of coach, and his style was quite different from that of being respectful.
Gao Chugong thought before that when he arrived at Zhending Mansion, he would line up his troops again.
But when Cao Wei was on the road, he began to line up.
Cao Wei sat in the carriage and lay on the soft couch. While laying out, he explained to Zhao Zhen: "Officials, now the Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu is still on the road like us, and my army of Song Dynasty has been mad. Border, then there is no reason to use it.
The placement of Liangcaotun at Yanmen Pass and Tongtai Pass was very beneficial to our subsequent defense of the Song Dynasty, but it was very unfavorable to our battle against the Liao State.
Therefore, taking advantage of the Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu's soldiers and horses have not crossed the Great Wall.
You can first send Wang Kai to lead the Jingsai Army and send troops out of Shuozhou to take down the Dingfu of the Liao State.
Then, like a nail, pierced it in the Dading Mansion.
As long as they have enough food and grass and firearms to help them, they will be able to hold the Dading Mansion steadily.
Defending the Dading Mansion is equivalent to opening the door to the entire northern territory of Yanyun.
After we defeated the Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu, we could send troops from Dading Mansion to counterattack the Liao Kingdom.
In addition, when our army and the Liao Emperor Yelulongxu fought fiercely, the Liao Emperor Yelulongxu would not be reconciled to the capture of the Dading Mansion, and he would inevitably send troops to seize it.
The Jingsai Army had 50,000 elite soldiers, and the Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu wanted to get back to Dading Mansion from them.
We contain 150,000 with 50,000, and the remaining Liao soldiers is 450,000.
Li Zhaoliang led his troops out of the mouth of the flying fox, which should be able to contain one hundred thousand soldiers and horses in Liao.
As a result, there are only 350,000 Liao soldiers that our Chinese army has to face.
Our 160,000 imperial army and 240,000 local soldiers can fight head-on with Liao Emperor Yelulongxu in Youzhou. "
A defensive battle, after Cao Wei joined, instantly turned into an offensive battle.
