Li Renyou was very moved after hearing Su Yin's suggestion.
But he is not a fool. He knows how difficult it is to accomplish such a thing.
"Having said that, the Ren family's power is deeply rooted. Even if the Ren family is killed, those traitorous ministers who are in favor of others will definitely not be willing to fail. They may mobilize the army to cause a mutiny. The situation will still be very dangerous."
"Don't worry about this, His Majesty the Emperor has already thought of it."
Li Renyou was overjoyed.
"Does His Majesty the Emperor have any instructions?"
"Of course there is. Before the action, His Majesty the Emperor will send troops to display at the border. At that time, Ren Dejing will definitely be forced to send a large army to the border to confront our Ming army. In this way, Ren Dejing will not have a shortage of troops. ?"
"That's true... indeed!"
Li Renyou immediately nodded and said: "In this case, even if we launch an operation to kill Ren Dejing in Xingqing Mansion, he does not have enough cronies and troops to threaten the safety of Xingqing Mansion! Even if we only rely on a small number of dead soldiers, , can also turn the situation around!"
"Right, that's it."
Su Yin whispered: "His Majesty the Emperor attaches great importance to this matter and believes that traitors like Ren Dejing cannot be tolerated. They must be eradicated as soon as possible, otherwise there will be endless disasters, both for the Ming Dynasty and the Xia Kingdom."
"His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty can lend a helping hand. The Xia Kingdom is very grateful. From now on, the Xia Kingdom will obey the Ming Dynasty and never betray!"
Li Renyou bowed to Su Yin again, expressing his gratitude and loyalty to the Ming Dynasty.
Next, the two discussed many details of the operation, and asked Li Renyou to tell the operators on Li Renxiao's side after he returned, telling them not to let the news leak out, not even to dream about it.
After Li Renyou left, Song Zhongxuan, leader of the fifth operation team of the Skynet Army who was following Su Yin, expressed his doubts.
"Boss, our final goal is to destroy the Xia Kingdom and recapture Hexi. Why does Your Majesty want to help them quell the civil strife? Isn't it worth the loss?"
Su Yin turned to look at Song Zhongxuan.
"Who told you that we were helping them put down the civil strife? Which of your eyes saw that we were helping them put down the civil strife?"
"ah?"
"Ah what? Can't you see? This is an attack on the Xia Kingdom's military power, using fair and just means to destroy the main force of its army."
Su Yin shook his head: "I think you really don't understand at all. You don't understand His Majesty's good intentions. How can the Ming Dynasty help the Xia Kingdom do good things? You don't think about how the Ming Dynasty can do things that are not right for itself." What about the good things?”
Song Zhongxuan blinked, scratched his head, and looked surprised: "Can you still explain it this way?"
"if not?"
"Oh, that's how it is."
Song Zhongxuan scratched his face and laughed: "It seems that I still haven't learned enough."
"If you know, then learn more. You are the team leader, not just a spy. If you want to go further, you have to learn more."
After Su Yin finished speaking, he turned to look outside the room and said, "And what your Majesty wants to do this time is actually not that simple."
"what do you mean?"
"Before we prepare to take action, we must proactively leak the actions of Li Renxiao and Li Renyou to Ren Dejing so that he can be prepared."
"ah?"
Song Zhongxuan was shocked: "Take the initiative to leak it to them? Doesn't that mean...it means..."
"Of course, His Majesty wants Li Renxiao to die."
Su Yin said coldly: "Li Renxiao has been emperor for more than 20 years. If we help him get rid of Ren Dejing, he will definitely unite the party ministers around him to reorganize the government. By then, Xia's military strength may not be recovery, but political stability will definitely return.
To eliminate the Xia Kingdom, we must not only start from the military, but also from the political. These are His Majesty’s exact words. An emperor who has been in power for more than 20 years is the last person who should exist after this incident. As long as Li Renxiao dies, we will waste our time. It doesn't make much sense to put in so much effort. "
"If Li Renxiao dies, wouldn't Ren Dejing be able to take control of Xia's army?"
"So what? As long as Ren Dejing does this, he will be the culprit. At that time, our government will have an excuse to send troops to put down Ren Dejing's rebellion, and take this opportunity to destroy the main force of Xia's army."
"In that case..."
Song Zhongxuan looked happy: "Isn't that just sending troops to destroy the Xia Kingdom directly? Your Majesty has decided to use troops to destroy the Xia Kingdom?"
"No, it's not about destroying Xia Kingdom."
Su Yin shook his head: "In order to bring order to the chaos, Ren Dejing killed Li Renxiao and usurped the throne of the Xia Kingdom. He was disrespectful to the Ming Dynasty. The Ming Emperor was furious and sent troops to attack it, destroy it, and restore the Li family of the Xia Kingdom. orthodox."
"This...isn't this just..."
"The emphasis is on the back!"
Su Yin sneered and said: "Find any child who can inherit the throne and re-establish it as the king of Xia. However, the young master is in charge of the country and the country is unstable. The Ming Emperor needs to send troops and people to assist the young master in running the government."
Song Zhongxuan was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly realized.
"In other words, after this battle, all the military and political affairs of Xia Kingdom will be in my hands?"
"Don't put it so bluntly. It's just to bring order out of chaos and help the young master stabilize the situation. Of course, power is needed to stabilize the situation. Without power, how can we stabilize the situation? Naturally, the military and political power of the Xia Kingdom lies in the hands of the Ming Dynasty."
Su Yin nodded and said: "Now that the military and political affairs of the Xia Kingdom are in my hands, the situation will stabilize after a while, and the Ming Dynasty will be ready in all aspects. Therefore, the young leader of the Xia Kingdom feels that he is not qualified to be the leader of the country because of his talents and virtues." But if you continue to govern the local area, take the initiative to abdicate, join in, and spread the word throughout the country, what's wrong with that?"
Song Zhongxuan was stunned by this wave of operations.
He had no idea that this was an operation in which the mantis stalks the cicada and the oriole follows behind.
"Can't we just use troops?"
"After all, the Xia Kingdom is a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty. As long as the Ming Dynasty does not openly betray the Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty should not directly use troops to destroy it. The Ming Dynasty is a superior state, and when doing things in the superior state, you must have a righteous name and cannot lose your righteous name."
Song Zhongxuan nodded, calmed down, and thought carefully about the gains and losses.
Then he discovered an important twist.
"We hope that Ren Dejing and Li Renxiao will attack each other, and we hope that Ren Dejing can kill Li Renxiao, but what should we do if something goes wrong? Who can be sure that things will succeed? And develop according to our vision?"
“Isn’t that what we’re all about?”
Su Yin spread his hands: "Plans are plans, changes are changes. Our existence is to make changes become plans. Of course, wouldn't it be better if Ren Dejing's actions go smoothly and we can directly achieve our requirements?"
Song Zhongxuan then fully understood what he should do.
He felt that this was the right thing to do. How could the Ming Dynasty do good things for Xixia?
They control important areas in the upper reaches of the Yellow River. When the Yellow River is renovated to a certain extent in the future, supporting measures in the upper reaches of the Yellow River will inevitably be needed. If they cannot completely control the entire Yellow River, the renovation project of the Yellow River will not be fully effective.
Therefore, the beginning of the Yellow River Project was the beginning of the Ming Dynasty's annihilation of Xixia and the recovery of Longyou. The nature of this land that had been lost for hundreds of years was actually similar to that of the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, but compared to the threat of the Liao Kingdom, The threat from Xixia is not that great.
Despite this, the Hexi Corridor controlled by Xixia is also the land of the old Han Dynasty. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty sent troops to develop it and has always been controlled by the Central Plains Dynasty. It was only gradually lost in the late Tang Dynasty.
The Northern Song Dynasty perished if it could not take it back, so this task could only be assigned to the Ming Dynasty. The Ming Dynasty was responsible for completing this unfinished business for the iron-blooded Song Dynasty and piecing together the Chinese territory.
This is of course a given.
Su Yin and Song Zhongxuan were planning the next action plan, while on the other side, Li Renyou also secretly reported the details of the action after discussing with Su Yin to Li Renxiao.
The two secretly communicated about this matter in Lee In-hyo's exclusive toilet room.
Li Renxiao was very happy when he learned about it and felt that he was about to be able to get rid of the threat of Ren Dejing.
"I can finally get rid of this thief Ren Dejing! This damn thief always bullies me, regardless of good or bad, and treats him like a donkey!"
Li Renxiao stamped his feet fiercely. Because he stamped too hard, his legs were slightly numb.
Li Renyou looked at the aggrieved Li Renxiao, feeling somewhat helpless.
