Chapter 747

"Your Majesty, I think that our Daliao should send troops to aid Western Xia. Since the Western Xia has already appointed our Daliao as the sect leader, and we also prefer our Daliao family as the queen. In this way, the relationship between our Daliao and Western Xia has become an alliance."

"The Song State has always been unsatisfied with the thieves in the Xixia land. Why is it because the land occupied by the Xixia is fertile and the water and grass are abundant. If the Song State takes it, it would be difficult to get 100,000 war horses a year."

"The army numbers between our Great Liao and Song Kingdoms are almost the same. The winners are the cavalry coming and going like the wind, and the soldiers are brave. However, our Great Liao also has worries, and they are the tribes in the north..."

He was in his early forties and was in his prime, and Yelu Yan, the Privy Councillor, was talking in an orderly manner. All the officials and workers listened quietly to their words.

After hearing Yelu Yan's advice, Yelu Hongji finally stopped hesitating and nodded slightly. "Your words are very consistent with my wishes. Since that is the case, then my Great Liao should indeed show the great power of our Great Liao to the world..."

"Your Majesty, in my opinion, I, the Great Liao Tiger Ben, should not be moved lightly." Yelu Yan did not show much joy when he saw Yelu Hongji being moved by him, but instead raised his own objections.

"What do you mean by this? Don't you think that the Liao Dynasty should send troops to attack the State of Song?" Yelu Hongji himself was a little confused. Could it be that I was old and had something wrong with hearing it wrong?

"This is natural, but our Great Liao Dynasty only needs to send out a small number of troops. We should be able to order the northern tribes to be the frontier..." Yelu Yan finally expressed his purpose.

Everyone present was stunned, and their eyes fell on the young and powerful Privy Council boss.

Yelu Hongji narrowed his eyes and thought carefully. He raised his chin to Yelu Yan and signaled him to continue.

"Your Majesty, my Great Liao army is the most powerful, but my Great Liao territory is vast and even better than the Song State. There are too many important places that require heavy troops to guard. Therefore, not many soldiers can be drawn to the expedition."

"However, although the tribes in the northern part of our Great Liao, there are frequent disputes that disturb the northern part of our Great Liao..."

Yelu Yan's intention was very vicious, which means that many tribes in the northern part of the Great Liao often disobeyed the Great Liao, causing chaos in the northern part of the Great Liao, which was very troublesome.

Since they are so brave and fighting, it is better to give them a chance to make meritorious and reward, let their troops send troops to follow our Liao army south, and let them go to the land of Song Xia to vent their energy that will never be vented.

Since the Song State became stronger in this way, it was just right to use the Song State to consume the strength of the tribes in the northern part of the Great Liao Dynasty. Moreover, there has always been disagreement between the tribes. With a little calculation, the tribes can fight for merit and fight for the enemy.

In this way, the Great Liao Dynasty could regain the three states without losing the strength of one soldier and one soldier, and could greatly consume the troops of the northern tribes and reduce the pressure on frequent occurrence of border troubles in the northern part of the Great Liao Dynasty.

As he talked, all the officials and workers in the court could not help but nodded and stood up to support Yelu Yan's suggestion, which would definitely be beneficial to the current Daliao.

What is important is that unlike this emperor who was either busy writing poetry, songs, drinking and having fun, or riding horses to hunt, after Yelu Yixin's death, his party members were purged and the atmosphere in the court was Qing. However, these ministers in the court also realized that the Liao Dynasty is now full of dangers.

Just like the Western Xia was conquered by the Song State, losing troops and generals, and losing thousands of miles of fertile land, it has already aroused the vigilance of many officials in the Great Liao Dynasty.

Because they knew very well that once the Western Xia was wiped out, the surrounding areas of Song, which had been raising energy and unparalleled, would have no worries, and they could face the Liao Dynasty with all their might.

Therefore, the Great Liao must properly deal with this critical moment, and cannot let the Western Xia fall, but should continue to support the Western Xia in confrontation with the Song State, so that it cannot focus its main target on the Great Liao.

Since Yelu Hongji ascended the throne, the Liao Dynasty has ignored the national affairs and has repeatedly trusted the treacherous lords in charge of the government, which has led to the collapse of the government administration of the Liao Dynasty and the suffering of the people.

The northern border troubles are constantly extinguished, and even intensified. Although the Liao Dynasty has many soldiers and generals, the government has been corrupt for many years and has long been without combat power and generals. Under such circumstances, it is very likely that a great problem will occur if a large army suddenly sends a large army to fight with the Song State.

Even if the Xixia was repeatedly defeated by the Song State, the armour of the Song State was being renewed and the combat capabilities of their soldiers were being improved. This is a fact.

Another big problem is that once the Liao and Song Kingdom face each other head-on, once they are defeated, the consequences will not be just the outcome of a war.

It is very likely to cause bad consequences and a series of reactions. As for the northern tribes who were originally slandered, they feel that the Daliao is now big and useless, and it will even make them go from a group of poor-tempered family dogs to a vicious wolf who wants to backfire their masters.

Therefore, the best choice is to drive the army of these northern tribes to go south together, and give them high officials and generous salaries, or other benefits.

At that time, even if the battle with the Song Dynasty was won, it would consume the military strength of the tribes. If it was defeated, then the most severely damaged would be the military strength of the tribes. Moreover, the Da Liao could take the opportunity to attack and take out several of the tribes that usually did not listen to the words of the Da Liao Dynasty as the culprits to punish them.

In short, no matter whether it is a loss or a win, as long as the army of tribes in the north can be driven into the Xia territory to fight, the Daliao will have already won half of it.

This idea made the civil and military officials present gradually look happy, and also expressed their admiration for this resourceful Privy Council affairs.

Although Yelu Hongji was disgusted with politics and was negligent, he was at least not a fool. He quickly figured out from Yelu Yan's strategy that it would be beneficial to the Liao Dynasty without any harm.

He couldn't help but show his praise on his face, nodded at Yelu Yan and said with a smile. "You are worthy of being the pillar of the Great Liao Dynasty. I have not misunderstood you. Just do this. I am just moving my muscles and bones..."

"Your Majesty, are you trying to fight in person?" Before the pride on Yelu Yan's face had subsided, he was shocked by Yelu Hongji's words.

"Although I am over 60 years old, I still ride a strong horse and gallop a hundred miles a day. I can pull a three-stone bow and shoot the eagle sparrow in the sky. Why can't I go to the battle in person?" Yelu Hongji stroked his long beard and began to blow his awesomeness.

All the officials and workers of the Great Liao Dynasty looked at the Emperor of the Great Liao Dynasty in shock with shock. Are we blind or deaf? Did you say you didn’t want to go to war with the State of Song before, or did you think that your friendship with the Song people is stronger than that of Jin, why did you think about personally expeditioning again in a blink of an eye?
