Chapter 913

"You mean that the Liao Kingdom's army will not have too much chance of winning, right?" Ming Shun couldn't help but frown. However, Wei Ming's analysis left him speechless. After all, it was reasonable and well-founded.

"Then what do you think my Daxia should be now?"

Wei Ming Awu saw Mingshun's gaze, shook his head helplessly, spread his hands and said. "Now my Daxia national strength has been severely damaged, and the territory has been divided into two by Song State. Now, Liao State and nearly one million troops in Song State are sharpening their knives. Under such circumstances, I, Daxia, may not have any say at all."

"At most, at most, it depends on whether my Daxia is of great use in the eyes of the Emperor of Liao. If it is of great use, then he will provide more assistance to my Daxia..."

The hall fell into silence for a while. After a long time, Mingshun sighed slowly. "I am Daxia, it's really stormy now..."

"Today, our family took the liberty to visit our door. In fact, he also gave his Majesty an oral order..." At this time, after listening to Wei Ming Wu's analysis of the current situation, Ming Shun, who was hit with no confidence, finally got back to the point.

"What?! Yelu Hongji is really bullying people!" After hearing the Liao Dynasty letter mentioned by Mingshun, Wei Ming and Awu were so angry that his face was ferocious. He slapped the desk hard and shouted sternly.

"Now, my Daxia really doesn't have much choice, and the emperor of Liao is so aggressive, and your Majesty has no choice but to think hard, so he specially sent an old slave to ask the old general if there are any good plans to relieve the current worries..."

Wei Ming Awu looked like a dog, and sat in front of the desk, looking at the delicious food in the desk, but it was so boring.

After a long time, Wei Ming Awu smiled bitterly. "The Emperor of Liao, this is also venting my anger on my Daxia."

"The food and supplies of more than 200,000 people sent by the Liao Kingdom have already made my Daxia very difficult. After that, Xingqing Cang was burned, which made it even worse. Now that 200,000 mouths are coming, is it trying to empty my Daxia family?"

"If you want to leave the Heishan Fuwei Military Office in Daxia, wouldn't it mean that most of the most abundant pastures in the Yellow River have become the horse-herding place of the Liao Kingdom? In this way, how can I have a chance to recover in Daxia?"

Mingshun smiled bitterly and nodded. "So, Your Majesty is now divided into difficulties, but if you don't choose, how can I, Daxia, stop the anger of Emperor Liao?"

"If the Liao Kingdom withdrew its troops, I, Daxia, would have to face hundreds of thousands of Song troops by myself. At that time, how many days would I, Daxia have to live?"

Wei Ming Awu opened his mouth and finally sat down dejectedly.

"So Your Majesty is in a dilemma now, and the old general, you are the minister of the pillar of the Great Xia. You have always been resourceful. Now, the Great Xia is facing the national crisis. I also ask the old general to share the worries of the country and your Majesty..." Mingshun respectfully said to Wei Ming Awu.

"... Let me think about it carefully. What should I do if I think about it carefully?" Wei Ming and Awu had a gloomy face, rubbed his eyebrows and pondered.

The maids in the hall were tacitly afraid to make any sound, and came over quietly, removed the cold dishes and replaced them with hot ones.

Mingshun didn't urge him, but just waited patiently, because Mingshun knew the ability of the veteran driver Wei Ming Awu and his loyalty to Daxia. If he had no choice, then it would be difficult for the Secretary of the Central Secretariat to come up with any good strategies to deal with the current situation.

It was not until the candle was burned to the end that Wei Ming Awu's low and dull voice came into Mingshun's ears. "Everyone, let me go..."

After a short while, both the maids and the guards disappeared outside the hall, and then the door of the hall was quietly closed.

At this time, Wei Ming Awu said in a voice that only Ming Shun could hear.

"The Fuwei Army of Heishan is absolutely not allowed to give up. At most, the area around Munashan on the north bank of the Yellow River near the Tiande Army of the Liao Kingdom..."

"At worst, I will also cut the hundreds of miles from Nuanquan Peak, Zhuolun Village to the Dahengshui area to the Liao Kingdom."

Mingshun looked at Wei Ming Awu with a look of surprise. "Old General, is there no other way for me, Daxia, except to agree to Liao Kingdom?"

"Only by agreeing to the Liao Kingdom, otherwise, I, Daxia, may not be able to survive this winter." Wei Ming Awu said helplessly.

Mingshun's face couldn't help but turn a little pale. He rubbed his hands and said, "But if the matter of cede the land spreads, then His Majesty's prestige will inevitably be greatly affected. At that time, those in the country who are unscrupulous..."

"So, there is a prerequisite, that is, your Majesty can only agree to this matter after His Majesty gets married to the Princess of Liao." Wei Ming Awu raised his finger and pressed his voice very low.

"Only in this way, those who are ready to move in my Daxia Kingdom will give up."

"But once you agree, your Majesty's reputation..."

"I naturally know that it will damage Your Majesty's reputation, but this is not the case. My Daxia may not even be able to live this winter.

Those people in the country don’t understand, it doesn’t matter. As long as Your Majesty has become the son-in-law of the Liao Kingdom, then at that time, if the Emperor of Liao is his supporter, if those people touch His Majesty, would they consider that the Emperor of Liao will tolerate it?

Besides, as long as we can survive the most difficult period, our Daxia can gradually recover and give it to you with the heroic spirit of Your Majesty and bring it back with you. At that time, who else dares to say anything?"

"The old general is indeed very scheming, and I finally understand. In this way, my Daxia will temporarily rely on the Liao Kingdom and wait for the strength to recover." Mingshun nodded suddenly.

As an old driver, I finally didn't come here in vain. In this way, although they are all surrenderism, Wei Ming Awu's strategy is too clever.

And it can also allow Your Majesty to continue to sit firmly and make plans for the future. This is the most important thing.

After the two of them carefully discussed it repeatedly in the hall, Mingshun then said goodbye with satisfaction. Wei Ming Wu personally sent Mingshun out of the gate and then turned back home.

#####

Early the next morning, Li Qianshun's decree arrived at Weiming Awu's mansion. Weiming Awu was reinstated again and made meritorious service.

Such an order made many officials jump out to oppose it, but the king of Xixia disagreed with the public. After the respected Wei Ming Awu entered the palace to thank the emperor, everything was decided.

The military power of Xingqing Prefecture, the capital of the Western Xia Kingdom, once again returned to the loyal old minister Weiming Awu. Looking at the civil and military officials who had their own ulterior motives in the court, Li Qianshun finally felt a sense of stability again.
