Gao Li was surrounded by Kaijing. Seeing that Gao Li was about to be destroyed, Zhao Zhen finally decided to send a navy to Gao Li, not for rescue. In fact, because of the delay in the news, the news of Kaijing being surrounded reached the capital. Zhao Zhen made another decision to notify the navy to send troops. This time it took several months. God knows whether Kaijing can still be defended?

However, even if Goryeo was destroyed, the Goryeo people would not all die. Zhao Zhen sent the navy to gather some Goryeo people, mainly some fleeing Goryeo nobles. As long as these people are in hand, they can organize the resistance of Goryeo people. If the Liao army really stays in Goryeo and does not leave, then let them taste the feeling of falling into the war of the people's vast ocean.

Just as the Liao army attacked Goryeo, news finally came from Dangxiang. To be precise, it should be the Gaochang Uighurs finally got news, but this is not good news, because the Gaochang Uighurs envoy came to ask for help from the Song Dynasty.

"Your Majesty, Dangxiang has entered our country for no reason, burned our city, and killed our people, causing the entire Gaochang to be mourned. Please send reinforcements to save me Gaochang!" In the hall, Gaochang envoy scolded Dangxiang's cruelty, and even tears came down at the end.

Li Zhang was also in the hall at this time. He couldn't help but sigh when he looked at the envoy of Gaochang. The envoy in front of him was said to be the prince of Gaochang. Just three months ago, a month after the Song Dynasty discovered that Li Yuanhao gave up Zhenzhou, the army of Dangxiang suddenly entered Gaochang, burned, killed and looted, and in just a few days it captured several Gaochang cities and surrounded Gaochang's capital.

Faced with this danger of destroying the country, King Gaochang immediately sent his son to ask for help from the Song Dynasty. However, he should also know that the distance between the Song Dynasty and Gaochang was too far away, and it was almost impossible to send troops. Even if the Song Dynasty really sent troops, when the Song Dynasty arrived, Gaochang might have lost its country, so he sent his prince. In this way, even if Gaochang lost his country, he could leave a bloodline. Maybe there would be a chance to rebuild Gaochang in the future.

Zhao Zhen also took Gaochang's letter of nationality at this time, read it carefully, and then handed it to Li Zhang next to him and said, "I feel very sad about Gaochang's experience, but this matter cannot be decided by just one word. You come from afar. I will arrange for someone to take you to the inn to rest first, and wait for me to discuss with you and your dear friends before making a decision!"

Zhao Zhen's words were very tactful, and he did not agree or refused. However, everyone present knew that it was not realistic to let the Song Dynasty send troops to a place so far away from Gaochang's Uighurs, so he would definitely refuse in the end, but this kind of rejection could not be said by Zhao Zhen. At that time, ministers would definitely be sent to inform the prince of Gaochang.

Hearing Zhao Zhen's answer, the young prince also showed a sad expression, but he also knew that it was good that Song did not directly refuse, so he could only leave with the person arranged by Zhao Zhen.

After Gaochang's envoy left, Zhao Zhen looked at the ministers in the hall with a serious expression and said, "What do you think of all the dear friends?"

"Report to Your Majesty, I think it is definitely not possible to send troops, but in addition to sending troops, there are other ways to curb the expansion of Dangxiang people in the Western Regions!" At this time, Han Qi was the first to stand up and said.

"Oh? What's the solution?" Zhao Zhen asked with his body upright.

"Report to Your Majesty, there are many small countries in the Western Regions, and they have paid tribute to us before. Now that Dangxiang is invading, Your Majesty can send envoys to contact these small countries. If they can unite and send troops, even if they cannot defeat Dangxiang, they can greatly consume Dangxiang's strength!" Han Qi spoke confidently at the moment.

"This plan is feasible. In the past, Ban Chao had 36 cavalrymen to appease the Western Regions. Moreover, the countries in the Western Regions were not very friendly to the Han Dynasty at that time. Now, our Song Dynasty has had good friends with the countries in the Western Regions. As long as we can make energy motivate other countries, it may not be impossible to let them jointly send troops!" Someone immediately expressed his consent.

Zhao Zhen was also quite moved when he heard this, but he turned his head and looked at Li Zhang who was thinking about him and asked, "What do you think, Dingbei Hou?"

At this time, Li Zhang also raised his head and replied: "Sending envoys is a good idea, but I am worried that the countries in the Western Regions will not be easy to persuade. After all, they also have a lot of conflicts with each other. In addition, I think Dangxiang's goal may not be Gaochang!" Li Zhang also showed a solemn expression on his face when he spoke at the end.

"Not Gaochang?" Zhao Zhen and the ministers in the hall also showed a surprised expression when they heard this.

"Yes, when the Gaochang envoy left Gaochang, Dangxiang only surrounded their capital, but had not yet attacked the city. Moreover, they had been away for so long, no one knew Dangxiang's next action. The most important thing is that the Gaochang Uighurs are still too close to us, especially since our army has recovered the original Yumen Pass, and as long as we get out of the pass, we will go west to the Gaochang Uighurs. If Dangxiang really occupied Gaochang, then in a few years, he will have to face our Song army again!" Li Zhang immediately told his guess.

"This..." Zhao Zhen also showed a contemplative expression when he heard Li Zhang's analysis. The first was Li Zhang's speculation, but the latter was based on factual analysis. The reason why Li Yuanhao gave up Zhenzhou was that he refused to fight against the Song Dynasty head-on. So long ago, he and Li Zhang had concluded that Li Yuanhao would definitely run far away, but now the other party unexpectedly attacked Gaochang, which was indeed too close to the Song Dynasty.

"With the view of the Northern Hou Ding, why did Dangxiang attack Gaochang?" Han Qi also pondered for a moment and asked again. Since Li Yuanhao chose to escape, he must try his best to preserve his strength. After all, Dangxiang is now a water without a source, and his strength is less consumed, so it is not a wise move for him to suddenly attack Dangxiang now.

"I don't know, maybe Li Yuanhao is demonstrating to the countries in the Western Regions, maybe Li Yuanhao lacks food supplies, and Gaochang has always been rich. In addition, Gaochang has not had a great war for many years, and the army has long been relaxed. Faced with Dangxiang's army, there is naturally no resistance, so the Dangxiang people are likely to use war to support the war, and in war, it is to expand their strength!" Li Zhang shook his head first, and then gave himself several guesses. After all, he is not Li Yuanhao, and no matter how he substitutes, it is difficult to really guess the other party's intention of every step.
