[69 Book Bar - www.] Even if the court ministers wanted to hide such news, they could not. Under normal circumstances, the royal family members would turn a blind eye to these ministers, not wanting to offend. Just like before.

These royal families did not mention the defeats they fought to the emperor. Because they knew that if they mentioned it, it would be them who were repaired by the emperor in the end. They would not be thankless.

But things are different now. If no effective resistance is organized in time, the entire Song Empire may be doomed. They jointly reported the situation to Emperor Zhao Yi, and at the same time exposed the behavior of Cai Jing Gaoqiu and other treacherous officials who harmed the country and the people.

Zhao Yi was shocked. He never thought that things would be so bad. He trusted those ministers so much that he entrusted all national affairs to them. But they teamed up to deceive him.

"Call Cai Jing, Gao Qiu and the others." Zhao Yi was also angry. He didn't want to be a slave to the country's subjugation.

Cai Jing, Gaoqiu and others came to the palace in trembling fear. They all knew that the matter had been exposed. What they were about to face was the wrath of His Majesty the Emperor.

"Hmph, you did a good job." Zhao Yi said coldly.

"Your Majesty, this has nothing to do with us. Tong Guan's defeat this time was entirely due to his own insistence. We really didn't deceive Your Majesty before." Cai Jing said while lying on the ground. This time there was no way to hide it. After all, the news was flying all over the sky.

It is too simple for Zhao Yi to know the real news. This time he can only put all the blame on Tong Guan. As for the past, he still cannot admit it. Only in this way can they continue to gain the emperor's appreciation.

They can still enjoy high positions and generous salaries.

"Your Majesty, this is the truth. We are loyal to the country and wholeheartedly serve your Majesty. This is a lesson for heaven and earth." Just after Cai Jing finished speaking, Cai Jing also spoke. For the current plan, all the sins can only be put on the dead.

.

Zhao Yi looked at Gao Qiu, Cai Jing, and Qin Hui. These three people were the ones he trusted the most and liked him the most. He would not be willing to kill them if he really wanted to.

"In this case, what should we do now? The Liangshan bandits are so powerful that our army has no way to resist. You must know that if the Song Dynasty dies, you will be finished." Zhao Yi said coldly, the most important thing now is

The most important thing is how to resist, and the other things are still secondary in his opinion.

The Song Empire could not be destroyed, and he could not be a slave to the subjugation. With his status, being a slave to the subjugation could only result in one outcome, and that was death, and he did not want to die.

"Sir, the humble minister has a plan to drive back the enemy." At this time, Qin Hui said. Among the four traitorous ministers, Qin Hui was still the strongest in terms of military ability. Qin Hui led his troops to fight and won a great victory.

, and it is real, unlike Tong Guan, who lost the battle and said he won the battle.

"Oh, Qin Aiqing, please tell me." After hearing Qin Hui's words, Zhao Yi finally had a little joy on his face.

"Your Majesty, we alone are definitely no match for the Liangshan bandits. We must borrow troops," Qin Hui said.

"Oh, how can I borrow it?" Zhao Yi asked quickly. No matter what it is, as long as it can defeat the enemy, it is a good strategy. Whether it is a black cat or a white cat, as long as it catches mice, it is a good cat. In this case,

Then you definitely can't care too much.

"Your Majesty, the area occupied by the Liangshan bandits is adjacent to Da Qin, Da Chu, and Da Tang. These three empires all have powerful military forces. As long as we make a promise, they will definitely send troops. Even if it is just a pretense. Then

We must also be on guard against the Liangshan bandits. The offensive troops are almost gone. We will appoint another general and slowly regain the lost territory." Qin Hui said.

Zhao Yi nodded. Qin Hui's method must be effective, but the price must be very high. Which one of the Qin Empire, the Tang Empire, and the Chu Empire is not a wolf, eyeing them with eager eyes? If you want them to send troops, paying money is one aspect.

, indispensable

The land is about to be ceded. Zhao Yi frowned at the thought of possibly having to cede the land. Land and national destiny are involved. The less land, the weaker the national destiny. Thinking about the things left by the ancestors but having to give them to others, Zhao Yi

Yi felt very uncomfortable in his heart.

"Send envoys to contact the three empires. It is best not to cede land and wealth. You can talk casually." Zhao Yi's face looked very ugly when he spoke.

"Yes." Qin Hui and others breathed a sigh of relief. At least their lives were saved.

"Then who will lead the army?" Even though the three empires have restrained a large number of troops, if there is no general to lead the army, with the current morale, there is still no way to resist.

"It can only be Di Qing and the Yang family generals who come out." Qin Hui thought for a while and said. Di Qing, the Yang family generals are not at odds with them, but at this time, they have to do it. If the Song Dynasty is over, they will also

It's over.

"That's all we can do. Recruit Di Qing and the Yang family generals." Zhao Yi's face was very ugly. In the past, he sent Di Qing to the sky prison and abandoned the Yang family generals, but now he has to be humble and say good things. No matter what he thinks, it is psychological.

It's uncomfortable, but compared with being a slave to the country, everything is worth it.

Qin Hui, Cai Jing, Gao Qiu and others retreated.

Di Qing and the Yang family generals both walked in. They had been through numerous battles on the battlefield, and their bodies were full of murderous intent. This was not directed at anyone, but the murderous intent was so strong that they were carried with them.

"My dear friends, please sit down." At this time, he was begging everyone from the Yang family to do something. Zhao Yi's posture was very low.

Di Qing and the Yang family generals both sat down.

They knew that there must be a reason why the emperor had such a good attitude towards them, and they were waiting for His Majesty the Emperor to explain the reason.

"My dear friends, the Song Dynasty is about to perish. You are all ministers of the Song Dynasty. Do you want to watch the Song Dynasty perish? I beg you, even if it is not for me, you must go out for the sake of the Song Dynasty."

With that said, Zhao Yi stood up from the chair, then fell to his knees with a plop.

Between life and death, all face is empty.

"Your Majesty, please arise. This is absolutely impossible."

"Your Majesty, there is absolutely no way you can do this. When the Song Dynasty is in danger, we must do our best to serve the country with our lives." Di Qing and the generals of the Yang family are all loyal to the emperor and serve the country. When they heard that the Song Dynasty was about to perish, they prepared to

They came out of the mountain. The emperor knelt down like this, and they were even more moved. They knew that the Song Empire was really on the verge of annihilation. Otherwise, the emperor would never do this. At this time, no matter from any angle, they

They all have to leave the mountain.

"Did you all agree?" After hearing the words of Di Qing and the Yang family generals, Zhao Yi also breathed a sigh of relief. In this case, everything would be easy to talk about.

"Your Majesty, we agree." Di Qing and the Yang family generals looked at each other and agreed.

"Okay, pass on my decree and appoint Di Qing as the Grand Marshal of the National Army and Horses, and Yang Dalang as the Deputy Marshal, to command the National Army and Horses to wipe out the Liangshan bandits." Zhao Yi said loudly.

With Di Qing and the Yang family generals commanding the army internally, and the three great empires restraining them externally, the Song Dynasty must have been saved. But the price was too high.

"Prime Minister, this is a gift from the envoy of the Song Dynasty. It is really rich. It just asks us to send troops to contain the army in Liangshan. What do you think?" Emperor Ying Zheng of the Qin Empire looked at Zhuge Liang and said. His face was full of smiles, no matter what he said,

, this time it was quite fruitful.

"Your Majesty, since you have brought it, let's accept it and expand our armaments. We can still extort some more money. And we can also extort some money from Liangshan." Zhuge Kongming gently fanned the fan in his hand and said with a smile.

"Oh, Prime Minister, what's the best plan?" As soon as he saw Zhuge Kongming's weird smile, Ying Zheng knew that someone was going to be in trouble.

"The leader of Liangshan, Ling Tian, ​​is good at refining imperial weapons. It is said that each of the leaders of Liangshan has one. It greatly increases their combat effectiveness. Your Majesty can give him a letter of divorce. If he hands over twenty imperial weapons, we will

We won't send troops. Wouldn't this be better? Everything on both sides has been gained. We haven't lost anything yet." Zhuge Kongming said with a smile.

"Isn't that a bit unkind?" Ying Zheng said with a smile, but he had already made a decision in his heart. He would be a bastard if he didn't take advantage of him.

Immediately, Ying Zheng and Zhuge Kongming looked at each other and smiled, knowing what they were thinking.

"They are all old foxes." Looking at the envoys from the three empires in the Juyi Hall, Ling Tian felt a little guilty in his heart. The demands of these people were surprisingly consistent. They all asked for imperial weapons. As long as there were imperial weapons, then

No troops will be sent. But we didn’t say how long we would not send troops.

Maybe the conditions provided by the Song Empire are good, so they will send troops again, or threaten again. This is a bottomless pit. But Ling Tian has nothing to do. At this time, it is the time of full-scale war with the Song Dynasty.

There is really no way to fight against the three great empires.

"I know your reasons for coming. I won't make excessive demands. One thousand years, just one thousand years. You are not allowed to use troops against us. I will give each of your countries fifty imperial weapons. Otherwise, everything will be over.

No need to talk." Ling Tian said.

"We will contact you right now." The envoys from the three countries have all left. One thousand years is not a long time, and they believe that their Majesty will definitely agree. This is also the fact. When they know that it is only a thousand years, they will not hesitate.

He hesitated and agreed. For China, one thousand years is too short. A war may last tens of thousands of years, and one thousand years is nothing. One thousand years, fifty imperial weapons,

No matter how you calculate it, this transaction is worth it.

Ling Tian personally took action and refined one hundred and fifty pieces of imperial weapons. The envoys took the imperial weapons with them, left the agreement, and left happily.

"Grandma, it's so irritating. This is blackmail. I really want to twist their heads off." After the envoys left, Li Kui said angrily. If Ling Tian hadn't kept giving him winks, none of the envoys would have left.
