Chapter 738: The Discussion of the Southern Expedition

Just when everyone was talking about it and even ignoring it, Wang Xiu took the opportunity to throw a bombshell, causing an uproar in the government and the opposition. "Words * love * first * send Baidu search warm - color - small - say - net."

In his letter, he bluntly stated that in order to protect the merchant shipping lanes and overseas cargo distribution centers, no longer be harassed by the three Buddhas and other barbarian countries, and to prevent merchants from being bullied by small countries, he asked the imperial court to officially launch the southern expedition plan.

He also cited the lesson that benevolence was so bad that the Jurchens caused Xiao Wall, and explained that the Great Song Dynasty must conquer the South China Sea to deter Xiaoxiao, and then establish a series of strongholds in the Hanhai countries, forming an overseas military state with sea ships as the traction, forming an overseas base area of the Great Song Dynasty, and forming a solid fortress that can be attacked and defended.

If any vassal state dared to go against the intentions of the Great Song Dynasty, or had rebellious actions, the overseas military states of the Great Song Dynasty could support each other, use sea ships to pool the forces of various military states, or directly suppress and deter, or control the situation before the imperial army came.

The whole world is not the king's land, the shore of the land, and the king's ministers, this is reasonable, but it is so nonsense when you study it deeply, whoever has absolute power and has no other thoughts is called a strange thing.

Only holding the delicacies in one hand and the steel knife in the other hand is the last word.

Many people don't understand Wang Xiu's plan, they never thought of making a big deal in the South China Sea, just beating it up, but some people think so.

Overseas countries are not only rich in natural resources, but the establishment of overseas military states is to learn the lessons of their predecessors, and if they retreat again and again, there will eventually be no way back, and in the end they will have no choice but to come to an end, and at least there is more hope for occupying overseas, and they can quickly understand the real situation in the South China Sea.

Just when the government and the opposition were shocked, Wang Xiuna did not stop talking, and directly threw out the development plan of the guard navy within ten years.

He clearly pointed out the important role of the guard navy in the Northern Expedition, optimized the sea ship fleet in the north and south, and simplified the fleet formation into a three-level combat establishment of the fleet control department, the battle team control department, and the brigade command department.

The entire sea vessels guarding the navy are under the jurisdiction of the north and south directions in peacetime, and are stationed in large brigades as units, and are under the jurisdiction of the guards and naval forces and each village, that is, the administrative management in peacetime, and the formation of a war team in wartime to completely formalize the system of guarding the navy.

Of course, he did not forget to guard the ground forces of the navy, and advocated that the Tiger Wing Army be expanded to five armies, and that the Son of Heaven should directly control the overseas expedition, known as the Son of Heaven's overseas guard rate.

This gags many people's mouths, don't you say that the minister is strong and the king is weak? The Son of Heaven directly controls the Tiger Wing Five Armies guarding the Navy, what kind of concept is this?

There are thousands of people in the inner army, and there are five armies in the outer army, which is enough to support the royal prestige.

Immediately afterwards, he officially proposed Shangguan Qian to take command of the expedition, and recruited 100 warships of the Great Song Dynasty Guards, 100 transfer ships, and more than 40,000 officials, forming three teams to go south to conquer the Three Buddhas and Qi Buchen.

At the same time, Jianyi strengthened communication between Cochin and Champong, gave appropriate compensation to the two countries, let them give up islands with fresh water sources, and guard the navy to build overseas camps, of course, in the name of lend-lease, as for the future.

Shangguan Qian's expedition is not a trivial matter, mobilizing 40,000 people to go on the expedition, whether it is scale or consumption, it is not a trivial matter, not to mention the two governments, that is, all the yamen of the imperial court are discussing, is it a small country? Didn't Li Changsheng lead a team to send troops!

Don't say that the court is talking about it, the northern emergency Guantang, the Jurchen envoy Zhang Tonggu entered Hebei and went south, saying that he wanted to re-establish the alliance between the north and the south, which caused an uproar in the government and the opposition, and everyone speculated about the intentions of the Jurchens.

Now it has been returned, but everyone in the Great Song Dynasty knows that it is Yangmou, and Zhang Tonggu's southward movement seems to be a bit interesting.

However, Wang Xiu didn't believe it at all, Li Gang also frowned, Zhang Qiyuan didn't think about it, it seems that the war is really imminent.

Qin Min, who was far away in Beijing, was not easy, he secretly entered Yuwen Xuzhong's mansion again to confirm Zhao Huan's whereabouts, because he had already received the secret official tang of the imperial court, and let him act cheaply, so he couldn't help but take it seriously.

"I wonder where Taishang is now?"

"Wushu conspired to go south, and Taishang did not reach Yanshan Mansion for the time being." Yuwen didn't say a little bit of falsehood, he knew that even the slightest mistake would lead the envoy to misjudge.

He also tried his best to rescue Zhao Huan, but people stopped outside, what could he do? Can only dry anxious.

"It seems that Zhang Tonggu has a different taste when he goes south?" Qin Min smiled playfully.

"Don't the princes of the two provinces still understand?" Yuwen frowned slightly, as a bachelor of Hanlin, he also knew a little bit of the inside story, Zhang Tonggu had several goals in going south, but he didn't really want to return Hebei.

"Mr. naturally knows that the captives are scheming, and they can't make big waves when Mr. calculates as early as they do." Qin Min smiled disdainfully.

"Then why did the imperial court increase its troops in Hebei one after another, don't the princes of the two governments understand? The Wushu is waiting for the army to reach the Boundary River and deliver another thunderbolt blow. Yuwen Xuzhong was very dissatisfied with Qin Min's attitude, this young man was too arrogant and arrogant, so he couldn't control it.

Qin Min raised his eyebrows and said with a playful smile: "I am just an envoy of the Ministry of Speed, how can I know the plans of the princes of the two prefectures, even if I invest troops and horses in Hebei?" It's not in my husband's calculations. ”

"Hmph, Wang Wen is really a hero, and he is not a reckless man, he has to rely on his strength to speak, since he has no ability to fight a decisive battle, he should be cautious." Yuwen Xuzhong did not have a high opinion of Wang Xiu, since the court knew about the conspiracy of the Jurchens and was still doing useless work in Hebei, it simply made him angry.

He didn't know that there was a different discussion within the Great Song Dynasty, and even Wang Xiu remained silent.

Qin Min's face changed, and he said unhappily: "Sir's plan, how can it be that ordinary people can know." ”

Yuwen saw that Qin Min's face was not good, but he didn't want to let it, and said in a deep voice: "Wang Wenshi is attentive to side affairs, but I don't know what Taishang's plan is?" ”

Qin Min groaned slightly, and said in a deep voice: "The Guantang sent by Mr. yesterday is to let me act cheaply." "In key matters, he is still principled, and since Wang Xiu has explained to Guantang, he plans to do as good things as possible.

However, he also has a high political acumen, and he knows very well that Zhao Huan's return is not a good thing for the imperial court, but his attitude is not very positive.

"Well, do you have a plan for Taishang's return?" Yuwen Xuzhong pulled his mind back to Zhao Huan, for him, the imperial court's decision was too far, if Zhao Huan was rescued recently, as long as Zhao Heng arrived in Yanshan, he would immediately organize a rescue.

"Not yet." Qin Min replied very simply.

"No?" Yuwen was a little angry, he didn't have a plan for so long, could it be that the envoys of the Speed Division were all eating dry food, and his face was very ugly.
