Chapter 1598

Liu Qian thought that all these people are actors. Li Xin also said with an excited face, "Your Majesty is so kind-hearted. I think the heroes of the soldiers can rest in peace."

Yin Zong was speechless, and seemed to be still remembering these dead soldiers. He suddenly opened his eyes and said, "the demon clan of 100000 mountains has become more and more arrogant these years. Is it really deceiving me that there is no one in Yin Shang?"

Yin Zong's words contained murderous spirit, and it seemed that he wanted to fight against the demons in the hundred thousand mountains, but no one dared to take it.

It was basically a basic national policy of the Shang Dynasty to passively resist the attack of demons and beasts. Building high walls at the border, once the demons and beasts came, they would rely on the walls to fight with each other. This way has lasted for thousands of years, so it is reasonable for them to exist.

In fact, in history, it is not that no emperor has ever thought about the demons in the 100000 mountains.

It is true that the emperor took the initiative to attack, but the results were not very good.

For example, the former Emperor of Yin Zong, who claimed to be wise and powerful at that time, brought great damage to the demon clan in an attack of 100000 mountains because of the bravery of the guards and soldiers at that time.

The emperor's heart was inflated, so he came directly to fight personally, and wanted to take the imperial soldiers into the hundred thousand mountains to wash away the humiliation of the Shang Dynasty, which had been oppressed and beaten by the demons for thousands of years.

No matter how the ministers at that time tried to persuade them, it was the general who led the army to defeat the demon clan.

But at that time, the emperor bent on his own way, ignoring the advice of these people, and took his army to the border with 100000 mountains, Yonglan pass. After arriving at Yonglan pass, the general was still advising. The irritated emperor put him in prison directly, and then the army marched into 100000 mountains.

Naturally, it was very sad to take over. At the beginning, this army was still smooth. It swept all the way, and there was no rival. Looking at the corpses of monsters all the way, the emperor was more confident. He even wanted to level 100000 mountains this time, and achieve his fame.

Because of this kind of self-confidence, he went deep alone and was surrounded by the monsters of 100000 mountains unconsciously.

One night, the monster suddenly launched an attack, and the emperor's army suffered heavy losses. Under the protection of several extraordinary saints, he himself ran out in a panic, but the army was out of ten, and there were many sorrows everywhere.

After returning to Yonglan pass, the emperor killed the guard General of Yonglan pass for the first time, because he lost. If he won back, he could boast about himself in front of the guard general to ridicule his opponent's blindness at that time.

But he lost. He was afraid to hear the general ridicule his voice, so he killed the general first.

After this tragic defeat, the Empire did not recover for many years. After such a great defeat, the emperor became depressed, drinking all day, ignoring the government, and finally, he was abandoned.

After he came to power, the emperor took a positive development. He always took this conservative attitude towards the monsters of the hundred thousand mountains, and it was not easy to recover the vitality of the Shang Dynasty.

Now many people in the Empire are the witnesses of the last expedition. They deeply understand that there are two kinds of monsters in and out of the 100000 mountain. In the 100000 mountain, monsters have unique advantages. The forest on the side is their natural invisibility cloak, and all kinds of strange plants will help them.

It's not a wise thing to attack a hundred thousand mountains.

Although everyone knew that it was wrong, no one put forward it, and no one wanted to be an outsider. When Yin Zong saw that no one was suitable for him, he put on situ Jiaqing, who seemed to be sleeping, and said, "prime minister, what do you think?" All of us are relieved. Several big men, especially your majesty, didn't ask him about it. In this way, even if something happened, you won't let yourself carry the pot. "

Now that he was called, situ Jiaqing couldn't pretend to sleep any more. He stood up from his chair, arched his hand to Yin Zonggong, and then slowly said, "it's true that the demon clan is powerful, but in recent years, I'm not the only one to give up. It's just that the mountain is extremely dangerous, and the environment is too powerful for the demon clan, But if there are experienced generals with brave soldiers, they are not without the strength of the first World War. I hope your majesty will think twice about this matter. "

Liu Qian showed a strange smile at the corner of his mouth. Almost everyone had an idea in his heart.

"The old fox."

He seems to have said a lot and carefully analyzed a wave, but in fact, he did not give his own opinions at all. He neither expressed his support for the expedition nor fully expressed his opposition. This is also a master who does not touch the pot. No wonder he has been able to sit in the prime minister's seat for 30 years.

However, Yin Zong did not buy this set, and said directly, "I just want to ask the prime minister, if I want to send a large army into 100000 mountains this time, should I or shouldn't I?"

Yin Zong directly forced situ Jiaqing into a corner and insisted that he give an answer. Liu Qian looked at situ Jiaqing's emaciated figure and wondered what kind of promise such a tired and lazy man would give.

Situ Jiaqing's face remained unchanged. He replied leisurely, "Your Majesty, I'm just a scholar. I really don't know much about this kind of marching and fighting, and I can't give you any advice. If your majesty wants to ask, maybe it's better to ask Taiwei."

Liu Qian was also quite depressed when he saw Li Xin's face. Liu Qian laughed in his heart. The prime minister really stood aloof from the world. Anyway, since the emperor asked you such a question, it was also his kind of attention. If he could say what the emperor thought, he might get a lot of benefits, It seems that Yin Zong wanted to have an expedition.

Yin Zong shook his head and said with a smile, "you old man."

He turned to Li Xin's head and asked, "Tai Wei, what do you think of this?"

The eyes of xuanzheng hall overwhelmed Li Xin, who frowned slightly. What he said next is likely to affect the future of the Empire in the next few decades.

Li Xin raised his head and said, "Your Majesty, you can see the soldiers of Yinshang 80 years ago."

Yin Zong shook his head slightly and said, "I was young at that time, I didn't see it."

Li Tongdao said, "I have seen that at that time, the Shang Dynasty was well-equipped, and the soldiers were proficient in fighting every day. At that time, the prosperity of Bingfeng was by no means inferior to that of the present. But what's the matter? Millions of troops, such as 100000 mountains, came back less than 50000, and countless soldiers died in it."

Li Xin bowed down and said sincerely, "Your Majesty, there's no need to go in the 100000 mountain. It's not suitable for us to live in the 100000 mountain. Moreover, after the battle, we have to send a large army to garrison. There's no danger to defend. It's far less than embracing the blue pass. Li Xin also hopes your majesty to think twice."

Li Xin's decomposition can be said to be all-round and appropriate. The Shang Dynasty just defeated the demon clan once, and the period was prosperous. Moreover, the food, grass and equipment at that time were at the top of the list. However, after entering the 100000 mountains, the Shang army would have been completely destroyed. If it hadn't followed the two extraordinary saints in the army, I'm afraid the ending will be more tragic.

Yin Zongan heard it quietly. He didn't show any joy or anger on his face. Instead, he said, "in this way, Taiwei doesn't think it's right to fight against Shiwandashan." Li Xin nodded and said, "it's not bad. It's not worth the loss. We just need to guard the blue pass."

Where to know that Yin Zong actually nodded and said, "yes, I think so, we don't have to fight with the demon family."

This makes everyone confused. What you just mean is that you want to fight with the demon clan. How come at this time, you suddenly change your tune again.

"It's really the emperor's mind. Don't guess." There was a secret way in everyone's heart.

Then the emperor asked the minister some other things. Yin Zhenglin and Liu Qian'an stood quietly in the same place. Slowly, the emperor began to talk to the prince. Naturally, the first person to talk to him was the eldest son of his majesty. The eldest son is also considered to be the most likely person to be the crown prince, but as long as the battle for the throne is not over, There is no final conclusion.

The royal family of the Shang Dynasty has always maintained a healthy competition, even the son of the Emperor today, in fact, few of them can succeed, because the emperor simply can not give too many privileges if the emperor's patriarch stares at this area.

Yin Zong had several sons who were not princes at all. They didn't have the qualification to compete for the throne. They sealed a prefecture early and drove them out.

The eldest son has a good life. Today, the eldest son of the emperor has some advantages, and he is also very competitive. He plays well in all aspects. Although he is not as good as Yin Guang in personal force, he is also in the upstream. Although he is not as good as Yin Li Tian in dealing with internal affairs and traveling, he is much better than other princes.

In a word, there is nothing special about this man, but he does everything very well, just not to the best.

He was able to sit on the throne of the prince, but also by virtue of their own strength.

Yin Zong talked with his son affectionately. It was a great court meeting, but it seemed to be a family gathering.
