Mixed martial arts: I am the best in the world

Chapter 575
Du Chong stood aside and didn't know what to say. This truth made the two Song Dynasties have to consider this issue. Who made the Ming Dynasty too powerful, so powerful that all the vassal states were wary!

In fact, just as Ji Lin had guessed, Zhu Shou's performance at the Martial Saint Ceremony was soon known to the major vassal states. Those such as Xixia and Tubo could only tremble and could not change the situation before them. everything.

In the two Song Dynasty courts, it caused controversy.

The Southern Song Dynasty was relatively close to Jinling, and they first received the news from Lu Xiufu and Jia Sidao. The King of the Southern Song Dynasty summoned the ministers of the court to discuss the matter. After all, the Ming Dynasty soldiers and horses were nearby.

The navy of Fubo General Qi Jiguang often traveled between Yellow Crane Island and the Ming Dynasty. The soldiers and horses on Yellow Crane Island were able to enter the Southern Song Dynasty in a very short time.

"Your Majesty, King Ming's ambition is obvious. If he attacks Donghuang now, he will definitely attack us soon. This is a matter of time." Wen Tianxiang said seriously.

In fact, since meeting Zhu Shou, he has felt pressure. Zhu Shou did not hide his ambitions, which frightened Wen Tianxiang. Everyone originally kept their own territory, but when they came to you, they wanted to unify the wilderness. It's so abominable.

Wen Tianxiang had always wanted to revitalize the country and prepare for the Ming Dynasty's attack. However, it was a pity that as soon as the Ming Dynasty was driven away, the Northern Song Dynasty began to attack, forcing the Southern Song Dynasty to cede Tianma Pass. From then on, between the Ming Dynasty and the Southern Song Dynasty, In a short period of time, everything was flat, not to mention the loss of Beizhou, which put the Southern Song Dynasty under the attack of the Ming Dynasty.

In the past, King Ming would abide by the covenant between princes and kings and occupy Huanghe Island and Beizhou in the name of lease, but obviously not anymore. Even Dali is in his hands, so how could it be just a lease?

Sure enough, it was obvious that the other party used the covenant of the kings and relied on his status as the leader of the kings to attack Donghuang.The next one that will go wrong is the Southern Song Dynasty.

Zhao Kuo nodded after hearing this and agreed with the other party's words, but quickly said: "The Ming Dynasty is powerful, how do you think we should respond?"

The Ming Dynasty was too powerful. Not to mention the Martial Saints, there were many other innate masters, but there were only a few innate masters in the Southern Song Dynasty. They were no match for the Ming Dynasty. This was what worried Zhao Kuo the most.

Wen Tianxiang hesitated for a while and then said: "Your Majesty, I think the next target of the Ming Dynasty's attack should be us. After all, we have too few innate masters. I think the best way right now is to join forces with the north."

"Join forces with the Northern Song Dynasty? Prime Minister Wen, do you want us to join forces with our enemies?" Qin Huizhi, the Minister of Civil Affairs, sneered: "The world is so big, who doesn't know that we are the orthodoxy of the Song Dynasty. The two sides have been fighting for hundreds of years. Now for us to join forces with him, isn’t this a big joke?”

"In the face of a common powerful enemy, if you don't join forces, you will die. Only after defeating the Ming Dynasty can you consider other things. Lord Qin, don't you know this truth?" Wen Tianxiang was secretly angry.

It was a very troublesome thing for him to persuade the King of the Southern Song Dynasty. He thought that everyone would join forces to persuade him, but as soon as he opened his mouth, some of these ministers began to object.

"Your Majesty, I think that the first thing to do is to strengthen yourself and join forces with the north. Is it really reliable?" Wan Qisong, the Minister of Rites, advised: "I think that the other side would like to use us as cannon fodder and then send it to the Ming Dynasty." Zhao Kuo nodded after hearing this. What Qin Huizhi and Wan Qinsong said made sense, even if he cooperated seriously.Will the North cooperate seriously?For hundreds of years, both sides have wanted to eliminate each other and complete the unification of the Western Wilderness. At this time, will the other side give up the opportunity?If it were placed on myself, I would not agree to this matter.

"Your Majesty, it is impossible for me, the Southern Song Dynasty, to withstand the attack of the Ming Dynasty just by relying on my own strength. The Ming Dynasty has many innate masters. According to the news from Guo Jing, when the King of Ming crossed the river, there was an expert who met the King of Ming. This man was about to arrive in Wuhan. In the Saint realm, even if you are not a Martial Saint, your martial arts skills are far superior to ordinary innate ones." Wen Tianxiang said with a wry smile.

If possible, Wen Tianxiang was willing to attack the Ming Dynasty alone without cooperating with the powerful enemy of the Northern Song Dynasty, but there was no way. It was impossible to resist the Ming Dynasty's attack with the power of the Southern Song Dynasty alone, so he could only join forces with the Northern Song Dynasty.

"Prime Minister Wen, how can we guarantee that the north will not murder us? King Ming is insidious and Zhao Xu is fatuous. Once King Ming promises Zhao Xu to exchange cooperation with us, does Prime Minister Wen think Zhao Xu will agree?" Qin Huizhi suddenly asked.

Everyone in the hall changed their expressions after hearing this, and they all looked at Wen Tianxiang. Now even Wen Tianxiang didn't know how to answer. Could this happen?It will definitely happen.

According to everyone's understanding of King Ming, once the two Song Dynasties unite, in order to relieve the pressure on the Western Wilderness, it is inevitable to alienate the relationship between the two countries. No one can guarantee that the Northern Song Dynasty will not be swayed by it and unite with the Ming Dynasty. , take action against the Southern Song Dynasty.

"I can't guarantee this." Wen Tianxiang explained.How can he guarantee this? No one can guarantee it.

"Qin Qing, what do you think?" Zhao Kuo did not blame Wen Tianxiang after hearing this. He believed that he was not a fool. No one can guarantee such a thing. Wen Tianxiang was very honest in this regard.

"Your Majesty, I think that on the one hand, we should reorganize the army, start from Beizhou and clear the country, and resist and defend at every step; on the other hand, we should ask Zhou Dynasty to take action. The emperor is stationed in Zhongzhou with countless soldiers and horses. Now Ming Dynasty is attacking the vassal states without authorization. Shouldn't the Emperor of Zhou send troops? Third, inform the Khitan and let the Khitan attack the Northern Song Dynasty and hold back the soldiers and horses of the Northern Song Dynasty. In this way, at least we will have no worries." Qin Huizhi said loudly.

Zhao Kuo nodded. Qin Huizhi's strategy seemed very ordinary. They were also joining forces, but the partners were different. Instead of the Northern Song Dynasty, they were replaced by the Emperor Zhou and the Khitans.

The Emperor of Zhou was used to deal with the Ming Dynasty, and the Khitans were used to deal with the Northern Song Dynasty. As long as the soldiers and horses of the Ming Dynasty dared to leave Beizhou, the soldiers and horses of the Emperor of Zhou would invade Beizhou and cut off their retreat.

Zhao Kuo nodded after hearing this. Compared with the alliance with the Northern Song Dynasty, Qin Huizhi's alliance with the Emperor of Zhou was obviously very confident. King Ming and the Emperor of Zhou were enemies, and it was impossible for the two sides to make peace. The Emperor of Zhou wished he could lead his army to make peace now. The Ming Dynasty.

The Khitans were also defeated by the Ming Dynasty last time. If the Ming Dynasty had not been born out of nowhere, the Khitans might have captured Tokyo. Now that they are sending troops again, the Khitans, who have lost the support of the Ming Dynasty, will definitely be able to deal with the Northern Song Dynasty.

"Your words are very reasonable." Zhao Kuo clapped his hands and said.
