When this voice sounded, everyone in the hall looked shocked, as if they didn't believe their ears. You must know that the people sitting here are all members of the military and political affairs of the Song Dynasty.
Before he finished speaking, a handsome man walked in. He was dressed in Confucian attire and had a graceful demeanor. He was a handsome man.
You don't have to believe your ears, but you can't believe your eyes.
When Zongze and others saw the visitor, they opened their eyes wide and were stunned.
"Your Majesty---Your Majesty."
I don't know who trembled and uttered two words.
As soon as these two words came out, everyone was startled. When they heard the swishing sound, everyone hurriedly stood up to greet him, saluted and said, "I am here to see you, Your Majesty."
The visitor was none other than the Emperor of the Song Dynasty, Zhao Kai.
"My dear friends, please excuse yourself."
Zhao Kai hurriedly stepped forward, helped Zongze up, and the two old generals in the army said to the others.
The rest of the people stood up one after another, but their faces were full of confusion and more shock. How could the emperor come here? It was incredible. However, they did not dare to speak randomly. The person in front of them was not someone else.
It's the emperor.
Except for one person, this person was Li Qi. He asked: "Your Majesty, why are you here?"
Zhao Kai chuckled and said, "I had already anticipated what your expressions would be like when you saw me, but I didn't expect you to ask this question."
Li Qi said very casually: "The emperor misunderstood, the minister actually asked for them."
"You!"
Zhao Kai laughed loudly, pointed at Li Qi, and said to everyone: "I know that all of you are very shocked that I am here, but in fact, you don't have to be like this. This is completely normal, because this battle is about our great concern.
The hegemony of Song Dynasty is that simple."
Zhang Shuye said hurriedly: "Your Majesty, if there is a war with the Jin Kingdom, Yanshan Mansion will become very dangerous. Your Majesty's dragon body is important and you should not come here."
"Danger?" Zhao Kaifeng said calmly: "If we lose this battle, even if I hide in Jiaozhi County, I may not be very safe. If I win this battle, I will be equally safe here, so whether it is dangerous or not,
It doesn’t matter where I am. It’s about whether you can help me win this battle.”
This sentence left everyone speechless.
Zhao Kai smiled again and said: "Even if I don't come, I'm already here. You won't drive me away."
"I don't dare."
"very good!"
Zhao Kai nodded and said to Li Qi: "I'm not too late."
Li Qidao: "Your Majesty came just in time."
"That's good."
Zhao Kai sat majestically on the seat that originally belonged to Li Qi, while Li Qi brought another chair and placed it next to Zhao Kai.
Zhao Kai stretched out his hand and said: "My dear friends, please take a seat."
"I obey my orders."
After a group of people were seated, Zhao Kai was not in a hurry to talk about business. Instead, he asked Zongze, Zhongshi and others with concern: "Are the old generals in good health?"
Master Zhong replied respectfully: "Your Majesty, I think of you. Everything is fine, my dear."
Zhang Shuye and Zongze also said that their bodies are relatively strong.
"Very good. Very good. These old generals are the pillars of our Song Dynasty. Your good health is the blessing of the Song Dynasty!"
"Your Majesty's kindness is so great. I feel ashamed to receive it."
Zhao Kai smiled and glanced around. He was very happy to see this talented person. He said: "Actually, when I came here, all the ministers in the DPRK were opposed to me. The reasons for their objections were similar to what General Zhang said. But
I had to personally participate in this battle. Emperor Taizong defeated Yanyun at the beginning and hated it for the rest of his life. It was also a regret for our Song Dynasty. Whether we can regain the sixteen states of Yanyun has always been a worry for our Song Dynasty.
I have been preparing for this since I came to power, and I don’t want to leave any regrets for this. Even I know that it is a bit risky for me to come here, but I am very confident in this battle, so I am here.”
It's very simple and clear. I came here without thinking about failure.
The emperor has said this, what else can the ministers say? They all said in unison: "I am willing to do everything for the emperor."
Zhao Kai shook his head and said: "This battle is not fought for me, but for the Song Dynasty, for the dignity of the people of the Central Plains." At this point, he sighed and said, "I am ashamed to say that I founded the Song Dynasty.
Since then, we have been repeatedly bullied by the northern powers, not to mention the common people, and I am deeply disappointed with this. I still remember that the Han Dynasty also suffered from the scourge of the Huns from the north, but Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty attacked the Huns three times, and now there is no royal court in Monan.
I have been longing for this to promote the power of our Central Plains for a long time. However, since the Tang Dynasty, our Central Plains has been dormant for hundreds of years. It is time for us to rise again. I hope to see this moment in my lifetime. I hope all of you, dear friends, can help me.
I will help you achieve hegemony in the Central Plains."
These few words made everyone sitting here feel moved. The men of the Central Plains are not without blood. The years of humiliation and seeking peace have long aroused indignation and dissatisfaction. A heart of revenge has long been in the hearts of every common people in the Song Dynasty.
Having taken root, it’s not like I haven’t fought hard, but it’s just that my skills are not as good as others.
No one at the scene answered, because what was the use of talking nonsense at this time? They all held back their breath, and suddenly they realized that what they were carrying was not only the country, the country, but more importantly the dignity of the great country in the Central Plains. This was not just a game.
The war to regain the rivers and mountains was more of a battle of dignity. Too much humiliation in the past hung over the Song Dynasty, especially in this land. The only way to clear away the haze was to win this battle.
Zhao Kai glanced around and raised a smile slightly at the corner of his mouth. This was the effect he wanted.
Although Li Qi did not speak, the expression on his face did not change much. He thought to himself, it seems that the emperor's eloquence has improved a lot!
Zhao Kai added: "This seems to be the first meeting of our General Staff Headquarters. I am very much looking forward to it. You don't have to be restrained. Just speak freely."
Li Qidao: "Your Majesty, Zong Zhifu has discussed this matter with Wei Chen, and Wei Chen feels that Zong Zhifu's plan can be included in the national policy."
Zhao Kai made a sound and said: "Prefect Zong, tell me quickly."
Zongze smiled slightly awkwardly. In terms of qualifications and reputation, he was the biggest among the farmers. Although he was older, his achievements were not enough to convince everyone, so he seemed a little embarrassed.
Li Qi could see what Zongze was thinking at a glance and said with a smile: "Prefect Zong, as a commander, you must first understand the four words 'do your duty without giving in'."
Master Zhong laughed loudly and said: "What the Privy Envoy said is true."
The two sang in harmony. If Zong Ze was embarrassed again, it would be a bit pretentious, so he told Zhao Kai the plan again.
Among the teachers, Zhang Shuye and Zhao Kaitou nodded frequently when they heard this.
After saying that, Zhao Kai nodded and said: "I originally thought that I could destroy the Jin Kingdom in one fell swoop, but after hearing the words of Zong Zhifu, I felt that I was a little fanciful. Yes, I want to destroy a country, and it is a country that is not weaker than us.
, This is not easy said than done. It is not advisable to act too hastily. I also very much agree with the Zongzhifu's policy, what do you think?"
The other soldiers nodded.
Zhao Kai added: "Everything is difficult at the beginning, and it is not easy to capture Yanyun. Wanyan Zonghan has experienced hundreds of battles and is a handsome man of the generation. All the soldiers under his command are brave and good at fighting. If he wants to defeat
It will be very difficult for him to capture Yunzhou."
Zongze said: "Your Majesty, everyone knows that the Jin Army is powerful, but now our army is not weaker than them."
Li Qi laughed and said: "Prefect Zong, I hope your words are not words to boost morale."
"Privy envoys, don't try to provoke me. Zong is not lying." Zong Ze said: "The key to the Jin army being stronger than our army lies in their horses. This advantage comes from innateness and is irreversible. However, our army also has powerful firearms, so there is no need to be afraid. In the past,
Our army often fails, or is defeated by the enemy at a single blow, just because of one thing."
Zhao Kai said: "Which point?"
"Courage!"
"Courageous?"
Zhao Kai had a look of surprise on his face.
Zongze said: "Your Majesty, don't underestimate this courage. On the battlefield, Tebi is facing a powerful enemy from the north. First of all, he must be courageous, dare to attack, and not be afraid of the enemy. Otherwise, no matter how much food and weapons are given,
, those are all given to the enemy."
The commander of the division nodded slightly and said: "The infantry's formation is very important when facing the cavalry. If the formation is scattered, the army will be panicked, which often results in a disastrous defeat. Our army has suffered a lot!"
Zong Ze said: "What General Zhong said is that our army is often twice as many as the enemy. If everyone marches forward bravely, even if it is five to one, the enemy can be exhausted. However, our army is afraid of the enemy, and often the enemy rushes forward."
, immediately defeated and fled, and the first one to escape was almost the commander-in-chief. Therefore, there must be strict requirements on the eve of this battle. If a general escapes, his entire family will be executed."
"That's how it should be."
Zhao Kai nodded, he also hated those who escaped, and said: "But this courage is not something you just have to say."
Zongze said with a smile: "What the emperor said is true, but I dare to vouch for our soldiers of the Song Dynasty. There is no timid person in our army of the Song Dynasty."
Zhao Kai smiled half-heartedly and said, "Where does Zong Zhifu get the confidence?"
Zongze said: "The confidence of the humble ministers comes from military discipline. Since our army of the Song Dynasty implemented the Privy Council's military training method that puts discipline as the top priority, now our soldiers of the Song Dynasty can only obey the orders of their superiors, and no one dares to disobey them.
The military order is a mountain of true military order. Even if there are hundreds of enemies and we only have ten people, if we order them to attack, they will kill them without hesitation. With this kind of discipline, how can an army be invincible?"
Zhao Kai nodded and added: "But the Jin Army's cavalry has an innate advantage over our army, and its tactics are flexible and changeable. They come and go like the wind. I'm afraid I won't be able to win just by relying on courage."
Zongze said confidently: "Courage is the basic thing. If you don't have the heart to fight decisively, everything is empty talk. If you have the heart to fight decisively, you will be qualified to fight. And the cavalry is as strong as the cavalry, and the infantry is as strong as the infantry. Their
Our tactics are flexible and changeable, we can move quickly, and we can come and go like the wind, but we can also use heavy swords without sharp edges, use slowness to fight fast, and stay the same to cope with all changes."
