These days, the debate on the Battle of Goryeo has been in full swing in the court.

The two factions refused to give in to each other.

But still no result.

The Zhao Guan family obviously did not want to get involved in this controversy. They did not even participate in the five-day court meeting, and Zhao Ding directly took charge of all matters.

He himself was locked up in Wende Hall and wrote books every day.

Arguing about many things is fruitless.

But debate must be allowed to exist, because debate can self-correct in complex systems.

The reason why the debate is fruitless is because the development of affairs has its twists and turns.

No one can formulate a complete set of objections at the beginning and let everyone implement them according to this objection.

To truly govern a huge country, we need to set goals from the top and have local governments make plans based on actual conditions.

During the execution of the plan, there will be deviations from the actual situation, and self-correction will be done to ensure that the plan continues to move forward.

This is the twist of things.

The peace faction's desire to retreat is also a revision of things. From a logical perspective, there is no problem.

However, the problem is that the Lord and the factions did not conduct a detailed investigation.

Another saying is: Without investigation, there is no right to speak.

Zhao Ning is not conducting actual investigation now, and he does not want to interfere too much with Han Shizhong.

His behavior is to delay time for the front line, hoping that good news will come from the front line.

As for people in history, are there any people in the Machiavellian novels who planned the entire plan so that people can execute it intact, without allowing things to adjust themselves?

Yes, I have!

Doesn’t the Great Song Dynasty Car God like to draw maps and let people execute them unchanged?

The result was an arrow in the butt and a panicked escape.

Therefore, the world is complex and chaotic, but logic is thorough.

On the tenth day of October, just when Han Shizhong's capture of the city had been decided, an elite group of the Jin Army secretly hid near the Yalu River.

During the Song Dynasty, local corruption and court disputes were still raging.

In Yinzhou in the northwest, the sun is warm as usual.

After the late autumn wind dyed the distant woods into patches of golden color, the early winter wind was obviously much cooler. The rolling Hengshan Mountains looked like colorful ink paintings under the blue sky.

Next to the river bank of Wuding River, groups of beam trucks entered Mizhi Village ahead.

More grain was shipped to Yinzhou.

This line is actually very fragile. During the Sixth Song-Xia War, Fei Tingrongju proved this with his actual actions.

As long as the Xixia people come over the mountains and ridges, they can cut off this grain transportation road at any time, leaving Yinzhou City in a state of isolation and helplessness.

For this reason, Zhao Ning asked Wu Jie to prepare to take back Fugu and Linzhou.

Of course, now that Song and Xia are in a period of peace, this grain transportation road is considered safe.

However, Liu Qi has been quite dissatisfied with the efficiency of grain transportation in the south recently. A large number of villages have been built in Yinzhou to defend Yinzhou. The number of soldiers and civilians is increasing day by day, but the food is always delayed.

At this time, Liu Qi was studying "On Cavalry" from the Tokyo Military Academy. The author of this book was none other than Hebei East Road Manager Yue Fei.

Liu Qi is actually good at using infantry, but there is no way. Zhao Guanjia has said that as a commander in the new era, he must continue to learn and prepare for the future.

After all, the Shaanxi General Production Department has begun to deploy large-scale war horses for various departments.

Liu Xi said disdainfully: "Yue Pengju has only been fighting for a few years, but he dares to write a book for us to learn from him."

Liu Qi said: "Don't be rude. The army recognizes merit but not seniority. Yue Pengju is indeed a very capable man in leading troops in battle. Since we have deployed cavalry, we must be ready to engage in actual combat at any time."

Liu Xi said: "Xixia people should be honest next time."

Liu Qi said: "The Western thieves are cunning and cunning, so we should not take them lightly."

At this moment, a voice came from outside: "Report!"

"Come in!"

A messenger came in: "Report to Liu Shuai, there is someone outside who claims to be a Xixia officer and said he has important matters to see Liu Shuai."

Liu Xi laughed and said: "What the hell are Xixia people doing!"

"Bring it in." Liu Qi said.

The person who came in was a party member named Ye Cirong.

"See Liu Shuai!" Ye Cirong said in the Mandarin of the Song Dynasty.

"What brings you here, Your Excellency?"

"There is indeed something important."

"But it doesn't matter."

"Recently, a few of our soldiers were hunting and walking towards Yinzhou. They got lost. I wonder if Liu Shuai saw them."

Liu Xi's expression on the side immediately changed, and he said: "Liu Shuai is the commander-in-chief of the entire army. You soldiers are lost and are looking for Liu Shuai?"

Ye Cirong said: "But he was indeed lost in Yinzhou!"

"If you get lost, you can find it yourself, but don't blame me for not reminding you that Yinzhou is our territory. If we encounter foreign enemies, we will kill them without mercy." Liu Xi continued.

Ye Cirong's attitude became tougher: "It was you who arrested our soldiers! Now that the two countries have good relations, you actually do such a thing!"

Liu Xi suddenly stood up and cursed: "How dare you talk nonsense here!"

"It's you!" Ye Cirong's tone suddenly became violent, "You captured our people, and you destroyed the peace between the two countries!"

Liu Xi immediately pulled out the knife and prepared to go forward and give the Xixia man a knife to bleed him.

Liu Qi spoke: "If you want to fight, just say it directly. Playing these little tricks is really not worthy of the stage."

"Please Liu Shuai release our people immediately!"

Liu Qi didn't bother to talk nonsense to him and said: "See you off!"

Someone came in immediately and wanted to invite Ye Cirong out.

But Ye Cirong is cheating here.

As a result, he was forcibly dragged out.

Liu Xi asked: "Why not kill him?"

Liu Qi said: "The Xixia people are obviously looking for a reason. If we kill him, don't we really have a reason?"

"These Western thieves are really messy!"

"Prepare some troops. Soon the army of Western thieves will arrive." Liu Qi said calmly.

Liu Xi was puzzled: "We have made a peace treaty with the Western Bandits, why did the Western Bandits suddenly send troops again?"

"I don't know either, but the Western thieves behave strangely and beat them when they come. Why do you ask so many questions?" Liu Qi said neatly.

"I'll order the striker!"

Early in the morning on October 12th, the Xixia army in Shizhou suddenly began to gather, and the dark crowd gathered together like a river.

On this day, a large number of Song army scouts became active frequently. They shuttled between mountains, rivers and plains.

A shocking fact was quickly determined: the Xixia people gathered a large army and rushed towards Yinzhou!

In fact, Li Qianshun's plan was not to go to war with Song Dynasty directly, but to test it.
Chapter completed!
