Su Yuanjing did not refuse and answered honestly: "The first choice is very constrained. First, it is difficult to say how much this belongs. Everyone must want to get more. Secondly, even if it is stated before, it is inevitable that there will be no work force behind it. However, the second choice is simple and clear. Whoever can win as much as he can, will definitely do his best. I wonder what the old general thinks he is stupid?"

Zong Ze shook his head and sighed, "Yuan Jing, although you are smart and diligent, your attitude is still a little worse. If you really want to be like you, you will be able to fall into the plot of Tang Kingdom. That boy Du Jia is really a powerful character, even though he is young."

Su Yuanjing was shocked and said more respectfully: "Please give advice from the old general."

Zong Ze was not polite: "This second method is to compare the absolute strength of both sides. Do you think our strength is stronger than Tang Jun?"

Su Yuanjing hurriedly said, "Isn't it? Didn't the invasion of Xixia be repelled mainly by the imperial guards led by Taiwei Gao? Although Xiaguan and Gao Qiu were incompatible, they could not be reversed in black and white."

Zong Ze smiled bitterly and said, "Yuan Jing, you have a great mind, but you only know one thing about that matter, not the second. That time, it was not the credit of Gao Qiu. What else did that rogue save besides bragging and bullying superiors and subordinates? But you can't blame you for this matter, I have the responsibility."

After saying that, Zong Ze immediately told everyone what had happened before. Su Yuanjing and others woke up as if they were dreaming. They understood that this was just a deal made by Zong Ze with Gao Qiu in order to enhance the military strength of the Song Dynasty. No wonder Gao Qiu, who was beaten by the Tang army before, became so fierce when he went to Yongzhou. It turned out that it was Xue Rengui's conquest of the east and Zhang Shigui got the achievements.

Su Yuanjing's face suddenly became much more serious: "So that's it. The Tang army's combat power is probably more than twice that of ours. This problem cannot be compensated in a short period of time. No wonder the people of the Tang Kingdom are so confident. What should we do according to the old general's opinion?"

Zong Ze pondered for a moment and said, "We may have to choose the first option. My opinion is that no matter how many soldiers the Tang State sends, we will still be the same, and we can also provide all the food and grass from both sides. In addition, the command power belongs to the Tang State. As for the harvest, we must have 40%. Those five prefectures are only allowed to give us two."

Zong Ze's words shocked everyone. Everyone couldn't believe that this was said from the stubborn old man. He has always been tough. How could he compromise so much this time?

Even Su Yuanjing was a little stunned and didn't answer the conversation for a long time.

Zong Ze smiled bitterly and said, "Do you think I'm crazy? How do I want to do this? It's just that those who know the times are heroes. Our situation is far inferior to the Tang Kingdom. Only by doing this can we maximize the benefits. Otherwise, we can't defeat Tian Hu and the others just by just being - at least we can't win easily, otherwise how can we make them crazy until now?

The Tang army is good at fighting and is extremely united. With them leading this battle, we will definitely win. We will be in vain for more than 20 counties in the two prefectures and counties. More importantly, we have greatly saved the face of the court, so it is still very cost-effective."

Zong Ze did not say it thoroughly, but the clear-flowing officials of Su Yuan Jingwei were all in their hearts. Although Tian Hu was cruel, he was generous. Many officials in the court were bribed by him, especially the Zhui Liu. Yang Jian, one of the four treacherous ministers, was said to have occupied shares in Tian Hu. How could the officers and soldiers do their best to wipe out the enemy?

But once it is under the command of the Tang army, it will be different. Yang Jian's influence cannot shake the Tang army at all, so that they can fully exert their strength. In addition, the emperor Huizong valued the most the reputation of the Song Dynasty. Tian Hu killed the imperial envoy of the court and seized property, which can be said to have given the court a loud slap in the face in front of the whole world. If they can be called back now, they will be too satisfied. As for those cities, towns and counties, they may not care.

So the matter was settled. Su Yuanjing left a few confidants and Zong Ze to discuss some details before they dispersed. After going to court the next day, Huizong asked the eunuchs to ask the ministers as usual, "If you have a copy, you will leave the court without a copy." Most officials knew that Huizong was in a good mood recently, so they stood up and said honestly without saying anything. Huizong was about to announce his copy and enjoy his life, but he saw one of the small group of closest ministers on the left standing up and shouting: "I have a copy."

Huizong was unhappy, and all the officials secretly cursed who was so ungrateful and deliberately made His Majesty unhappy. He looked closely and found Su Yuanjing, one of the two genuine Grand Marshals of the dynasty.

Seeing that it was him Huizong who forced his temper and asked, "It turns out that it is Su Aiqing, I don't know what major matters need to be reported to me."

Huizong specifically emphasized the word "big event" very seriously, and the meaning was very clear. At this moment, I was busy playing basketball, writing, chanting poems, paintings, and turning the dragon and phoenixes upside down. There was no important thing, so there was no need to disturb him. Su Yuanjing had been with him for so long and had always been smart. He should understand this principle.

But Su Yuanjing shouted: "Your Majesty, I do have important things to report, and it is a great joy."

Huizong's frown suddenly spread out and said excitedly: "Oh? I am worthy of being Su Aiqing. What kind of happy things can I say, so I will be happy too."

Su Yuanjing said loudly: "Does Your Majesty remember the pseudo-King Tian Hu insulted the imperial envoy and killed the angel in the previous episode? Every time I think of this, I tossed and turned, unable to sleep at night, thinking about how to save face for the court. After all, the Emperor will pay off the will, and finally let Wei Chen find a solution."

Huizong happily slapped his deputy with the dragon throne and sighed: "I am really a pillar of the country. Even Yi Yin and Kongming cannot compare with me. I am very ashamed of this matter. I don't know what tricks I have? As long as I can make Tian Hu and his gang pay the price, I will make great contributions for the court."

When all the civil and military officials were looking at Su Yuanjing with envy and jealousy when they heard Huizong say this, especially Cai Jing, Tong Guanqiuqiu brother Yang Jianwei, the Zhuiliu faction, whose eyes were wide open, they wanted to know what Su Yuanjing could do to deal with Tian Hu. Is he going to take people to fight in person? Then he overestimated his command ability too much.

Only many officials from Zong Ze and Qingliu knew the details, but they were also admired. They were indeed sorry for Huizong's understanding of Huizong compared to Su Yuanjing. The same thing made Huizong very happy when Su Taiwei said that they wanted to let Tang commanders and soldiers to fight against Tian Hu as soon as they came up, and Huizong might not be so happy, and the treacherous parties would inevitably make trouble.
