Chapter 729: Shangqing Cloud View 2
"It is also indispensable to open up the South China Sea, and it is indeed necessary to turn Confucianism and Taoism into the top. γNet. "Li Gang said leisurely, he has no rejection of Taoism, Huang Lao Wuwei can indeed be used in governing the world, as long as Taoists don't go too far, Huang Lao as a Confucian auxiliary means, he still agrees very much.
Wang Xiu knew that he had entered the main topic, and the beginning was overseas, which had nothing to do with the core of Shilin's attention, but it was also Shilin's concern. Just when Li Changsheng set out on the expedition, he proposed that the Three Buddhas were eyeing the Bowang Army, the overseas stronghold of the Great Song Dynasty, and imposed heavy taxes on the maritime merchants, and the greed of its lord was clearly exposed, and he wanted to gradually crusade against the country, and finally destroy the country and become the overseas military state of the Great Song Dynasty.
Yes, the idea of an overseas military state is his first initiative to establish a military state with convenient transportation in the South China Sea and the East China Sea. In fact, he did not have a core meaning, that is, the Bowang Army he selected was the future Brunei, which was a gold-producing country.
People die for money, birds die for food, and it is not bad to say, no matter how much the news is concealed, it is impossible not to leak it. Since it is inevitable, we can only fight a war, take the opportunity to send strong troops, resolve the contradictions in the South China Sea, truly control the rich areas, and realize the goal of supporting China with the power of all countries.
However, the three Buddhas, Champong, Zhenla and other countries were still tributary on the surface and belonged to the Fangwai feudal states, and the war of annihilation was indeed a bit excessive, and it was difficult for Shilin to accept.
The establishment of a military state in the East China Sea will involve Fusang and Goryeo, and the public opinion of the two countries is playful, and people are generally not interested in Fusang, but they demand that Goryeo be re-accepted as a subject country, and this small country is repeatedly under the coercion of the Jurchens, and the two ends of the snake and mouse are not the sons of man.
Wang Xiu also didn't have a good impression of Goryeo, the cake was just too much, no matter how arrogant it was after a thousand years, it was indeed poor and white now, which made people uninterested.
However, he found its strategic significance, which was conducive to the flank of the Northern Expedition internally, and convenient for the government to support Ireland. Politicians need to be comprehensive and bury chess pieces for convenient use, even if they can't use them themselves, they want future generations to benefit.
Shen Mo once said that Goryeo was a side branch of China, and the Han and Tang dynasties had conquest, and it was best to appease him, but he did not deny the correctness of Shen Mo, and the main cadre of Goryeo was a descendant of Shang Jizi, but not Goguryeo.
Goguryeo is Buyeo Zahu, after the Xiongnu moved west, there was no tiger and monkey in the mountains called the king. Goryeo and Goguryeo are not related by blood, a migratory people born in the shadow of a great country, destined to be a supporting role forever.
Sadness is their fate, and submission to orthodoxy is their hope, there is no other connotation, and he has no other meaning to be the son of Goryeo, just for the sake of whether the descendants of the Han family can seize the opportunity.
"Sriwijaya is a big country in the South China Sea, controlling the east-west trade seaway, and the Bowang army is a lonely city, I'm afraid it can't be supported, since war will break out sooner, it's better to solve it as soon as possible, but the vast sea, I'm afraid the labor expedition will be fruitless."
Li Gang had some support for the conquest of Srivijaya, but he had no confidence in the face of blue waves, and he was not interested in Goryeo, but cared about the South China Sea.
"The land of Srivijaya is sparsely populated, and it is not a small country from the perspective of the imperial court, but it dares to be called a strong country in the South China Sea, even if it is Uncle Ying's army, it can divide the country." Wang Xiu didn't care about it, he really didn't take the Three Buddhas seriously.
To say that Southeast Asia has risen a little, it is also two or three hundred years later, and now compared with the Great Song Dynasty, it is simply a humiliation of the Great Song Dynasty.
"I look at the topographic map, the Three Buddhas are not small, it is by no means conquered by 10,000 people, the guards and the navy are fighting alone, it is difficult to destroy the country, and it is appropriate to say that the country is divided." Zhang Qiyuan glanced at Li Gang, no matter his attitude towards Wang Xiu, the national policy is the national policy, and there is no room for personal feelings, and said: "If you can pass GuΓ² Jiaozhi and Zhancheng, the imperial army will advance by land and water, and it may be able to achieve miraculous results." β
Wang Xiu couldn't help but look at Zhang Qiyuan more, this guy actually thought of conquering Jiaozhi and Zhancheng, and going south by land, and had a very deep understanding of his South China Sea strategy, which could not help but arouse his vigilance, this is really a talent
However, he said: "Exactly, there is no need to occupy Jiaozhi and Zhancheng, after all, they are vassals of the Great Song Dynasty, we want them to have a few islands in the sea, and the sea ship team goes south, so there is no need to risk running aground." However, that is a long-term strategy, and now we want to divide the Sriwijaya, occupy part of the coastal areas, and support the children of the royal family to establish a few small states. Oh, as for opening up land transportation, that's to be said later, even if we have the heart now, we don't have the strength. β
The intention is very obvious, that is, to take advantage of the internal contradictions of the royal family, drive the tiger and devour the wolf, to raze and conquer, and constantly encroach on the Three Buddhas, and gradually conquer it into pieces. As for opening up land transportation, it is part of the entire South China Sea strategy, and it cannot be completed now, and we need to wait for the right time.
"It's not easy to destroy the country, I'm afraid the court can't afford it. On the contrary, Goryeo can handle it quickly and contain the Jurchen flanks. Silence made his point from a fiscal point of view, and he also saw that using the flanks to his advantage would at least reduce the pressure on the finances.
Diplomatic relations are very flavorful, and they are seen to be paying great benefits, but in fact, they are using their comprehensive national strength to let others contribute money and efforts to serve their own strategy.
Of course, this is not charm and image, but authority based on national strength and deterrence, and the Goryeo people are not fools, throwing their heads and spilling blood for the sake of the Great Song Dynasty.
"Brother Zhizhi is right, Ganghwa Island is not far from the royal city of Goryeo, and it seems that it can be used." Cai Yi presided over overseas affairs, so he was naturally clear, and he was very inclined to control Goryeo.
"Goryeo and Jurchen are next to each other, how can Wushu allow the forbidden army to be stationed" Li Gang couldn't help frowning, he advocated the Northern Expedition is true, but it is more pragmatic, how many troops do you have stationed overseas, and how much of a role can a lone army play.
Zhang Qiyuan raised his eyebrows and said playfully: "Stationed in Jianghua is not to start a war directly, but to control Goryeo, and he will attack tens of thousands of troops in Goryeo in the north, and it can be regarded as a victory." β
Wang Xiu raised his eyebrows, turned his gaze to Yun Hao Zhenren, and said half-smilingly: "Now that the Jurchens, Dangxiang and Goryeo worship the Buddha too much, your chief has praised Heshang as the reincarnation of the Buddha, that is to preach at the opening of the royal family, where is my Xuanmen Taoist place, the Taoist still needs to work hard." β
Yun Hao really swayed and whisked the dust, it seemed to be relaxed but it was not indifferent, Wang Xiu's words forced him to the edge of the cliff. This is not a matter of human affairs, but the life and death of Zhitong, as a Taoist disciple, he has no way out.
Of course, he understood Wang Xiu's thoughts, and he also very much hoped that Wang Xiu would change his face to Taoism and become the state religion of the imperial court again. β
"Taoism has 3,000 avenues, Buddhism is only 800 side doors, and a Tao Te Ching can be worth 100,000 soldiers" Wang Xiu smiled, and a touch of sarcasm flashed in his smile.
Yun Hao Zhenren bowed his head very solemnly, and he very much agreed with Wang Xiu's statement. &87;&87;&87;&46;&71;&69;&73;&76;&73;&87;&88;&46;&67;&79;&77;&24320;&24515;&38405;&35835;&27599;&19968;&22825;
