From Su Liu's point of view, there was nothing wrong with her taking advantage of the situation.
It's just that he took some desperate risks.
Suppose that you did not rescue Li Hongyu, but the Koreans reacted quickly and directly used him as a threat. At that time, would you retreat or not?
Of course, if you can get the chips you want at lightning speed, that's another matter.
However, there are still theoretical risks.
From this, it is not difficult to see that she is willing to go all out this time.
Very courageous.
Qi Yu stroked his beard and suddenly asked: "Emperor, what do you think of this?"
Li Hongyu was still immersed in the entanglement just now. When he saw Qi Shaobao asking a question suddenly and coldly, he actually didn't come back to his senses for a while.
However, he is a top-ranking person after all, and he still has the necessary adjustment ability.
After taking a deep breath, he quickly calmed down and made his own analysis.
"In my opinion, there is nothing wrong with what the Queen Mother did. Only by gaining bargaining chips can we have the capital to negotiate with the other party. Otherwise, we will always be in a passive position."
"Your Majesty is right, but Wei Chen doesn't think so."
"Oh? What's your opinion, Shaobao?"
"Goryeo is our neighbor to China. There is only a river between them. As long as you have strong national strength and strong military, you can send troops at any time. However, Donglu and Fusang are different. One of them is Living there temporarily, one is a country across the sea. Even if it occupies territory, it is a rootless tree with insufficient support. It is possible to lose the rule at any time. In other words, they want to establish a foundation in Goryeo in a short time. It’s difficult to achieve. In that case, why doesn’t Da Fengchao wait until they finish fighting before cleaning up the mess?”
Li Hongyu asked: "What Shaobao means is that it is better not to send troops?"
"Of course!" Qi Yu stroked his beard and said: "The situation is chaotic now, and it's impossible to tell who is with whom. If you are not careful, you may become the center of attention and be surrounded by others."
Shoot the bird with a gun.
That's the truth.
After a pause, Qi Yu continued: "Even if we send out troops, it will not be the imperial army's turn to take the lead. It seems that the Queen Mother is still not broad-minded enough!"
What does this mean?
oh, I get it.
The hidden meaning is, why do you still dare not activate Qi Jiajun?
From its geographical location, the army can advance, attack, retreat and defend. It is the first line of defense between the Koryo Peninsula and Daebong Dynasty.
With Qi Jing's methods, defeating them is not just a dream.
The strength of Donglu and Fusang is indeed not weak, but compared with Tatar Wala and Rakshasa Kingdom, there is still a big gap.
Even the elder brothers are no match for General Qi, let alone these juniors?
Whether it is a short-term battle or a long-term deployment, Qi Jiajun is the obvious choice.
Wouldn't it be strange for the imperial court to abandon beautiful jade but not use it?
There are many wise men in the temple. It is impossible not to understand this superficial truth, and relevant advice is absolutely indispensable. The reason why Qi Jing is not used is mainly due to unnecessary vigilance.
If he really captured Koryo Island, would this territory belong to Da Fengchao? Or should we wait as appropriate and let him be 'temporarily controlled' for a period of time?
It is estimated that Su Liu prefers the latter.
Perhaps, it was for this reason that she abandoned the Mobei Army and acted alone.
That's why Qi Yu hinted that he was not broad-minded enough.
However, the focus of what he expressed was not in this aspect. But it is said that Dafeng should not choose to take advantage of the situation at this moment.
Even if you win an inch of territory, you may not be able to hold it. There are jackals all around, how can you avoid them?
As for the idea of replacing the captured emperor, I can only say that it is barely feasible.
Whether it can be realized in the end, who can say for sure?
Taken together, this strategy has both advantages and disadvantages and cannot be considered a good approach.
Li Hongyu generally agreed with Qi Yu's point of view, but he still maintained the same vigilance as before about using Qi Jing.
"As the saying goes, one knows a person's face but not his heart. Who can say for sure whether Qi Jing has different intentions? Although the mother's approach is biased, it is still a safe strategy."
"Knowing people but not their hearts? This is simply a big joke!" Qi Yu said sarcastically with a cold smile.
Li Hongyu was startled when he heard this and asked, "Could it be that what I said is wrong?"
"Of course not!" Qi Yu categorically denied it at first, and then elaborated: "Let's not go into detail, let's take the current situation as an example. The imperial court has already participated in military operations with Goryeo, and General Qi can take advantage of this empty opportunity. He sent his troops into the pass, and then marched straight into the capital. However, he did not do this. Why do you think this is? Various signs are enough to prove that what he has in his heart is a sincere heart. How can there be any What disobedient thoughts are there? Even if there are some personal thoughts, they are just for self-protection."
"This..." Li Hongyu was completely speechless after hearing this, and felt unable to refute.
Now that the words have been said clearly, Qi Yu doesn't intend to hide it half-heartedly.
Simply, he said more bluntly: "Take Wei Chen as an example. If I wanted to become a king on my own, who could stop me? But I also didn't do that. Not only that, I also tried my best to Maintain the stability of the imperial power, otherwise, your position would have been replaced by your cousins long ago."
"Replace me?"
"Um……"
"Come on, tell me, what's going on?"
Next, Qi Yu described the incident involving the successor emperor in detail.
At the end, he did not forget to reiterate the point of view that "a country can be without a king for a day": this world is the same without anyone, and the so-called great monarchs are just self-financing.
Without your involvement, it might even be better.
The speaker had a relaxed face and an indifferent tone, but the listener was thunderous and frightened.
Li Hongyu never expected that his throne would almost be handed over to others.
After a burst of sweat, he suddenly had an epiphany.
The real threat to him is neither Qi Yu from Nanyang nor Qi Jing from Mobei, but the Li family himself.
It's no wonder that emperors of all dynasties would be cruel to their brothers, even at the cost of their lives.
Patricide and brother-killing are indeed commonplace in classics.
However, here comes the problem.
We both share the same blood, and blood is thicker than water, so why do we have to hate each other?
Isn’t it good to get along well?
Royal people also have feelings between relatives, and they are not all unsympathetic people.
This is the case with Li Hongyu.
To this day, he still retains his original sincerity.
