CHAPTER XLIX
In September of the second year of the founding of the Jin Dynasty, the Tokyo Road was gradually settled, and Hulugu (this Hulugu is another general, and he is not the same person as Hulu) guarded Xianzhou on the North Road, Jin General Wu Du guarded Anpo, and Cao Guangbi defended Liaokou with the Han army. The Liao's two attacks were repulsed, and the momentum of Tokyo was solid, and the Dajin South Road Commanders Hulu and Zheyanchong returned to Huining together to report on their work.
Seeing that his uncle would be rewarded for returning to the capital this time, Zong Han came to invite his father to Huining together, so he could rejoice with Hulu.
Sakai said to his son: "Sticky Han, I heard that Huining has been discussing the matter of letting the Han Department not move recently, is there any?" ”
Zong Han replied, "Yes, there is such a thing. ”
Sakai said, "What do you think? ”
Zong Han said: "The population of the Han Department is gradually multiplying, and it is not suitable to stay in the country for a long time. ”
Sakai said: "Huining is the capital of my Dajin country, and the more prosperous the population, the better. I heard that the population of the capital city of the Great Song Dynasty is more than one million, and the population of Huining is not even half of the Han Dynasty! In fact, the most important reason why everyone wants the Han Department not to move is not because they have a large population, but because they are unwilling to change their customs! ”
Zong Han said: "I was originally brought in by the Han Department, and I swore to Changbai Mountain: as long as they do not violate the taboo of my Jurchens and listen to the orders of Du Bo Ji, we will never persecute them. If they refuse to be contained, I will personally send them out of the country. Later, the ancestor and the present also agreed to let them govern themselves in the village, how can they regret it now? I know Yan Chong's character, if we force him to do something he doesn't want to do, I'm afraid that he would rather abandon the country and go away than bow his head. ”
Sakai shook his head and said: "We agreed at the beginning, but at this time, at that time. At that time, my Jurchens were still weak, and their population was small, so it was okay for them to protect themselves. But now that the prestige of my Dajin country has been extended, how can I still let there be a big tribe of 10,000 or 20,000 people in Jinnai? ”
Zong Han said: "The Lord and the Wise Ban Bo are both very strong, and they also know this, so there is no other way to move. ”
Sagai shook his head again and said, "It's not proper, it's not proper. ”
Zong Han asked, "Is my father worried about something?" ”
Sakai sighed: "I'm afraid that if I leave Huining, I won't be able to control it!" Hanbu has grown so fast in recent years, even I was surprised! Three years ago, when they came back, there were only 361 people, and I just said that they would soon be Jurchen, like Wuchun. Who knew that they were able to maintain the Han customs so well, not only did they not shrink, but they grew with the growth of my Dajin. Now their population is nearly 20,000, and if they are not restricted, there will be disaster in the future. ”
Zong Han muttered: "Since the return of the Han Ministry, not only has a lot of merit, but what is even more rare is loyalty. They have never eaten a grain of Yan's grain in vain, but they have paid for tea every year, and crowned it among all departments. When fighting, he sent troops and contributed his strength, and he did not fall behind. From Ningjiang Prefecture to Tokyo, there are no less than ten cities, but there is no idea of separation. After each capture, I will ask the generals of the Yan Department to defend more. This time, Yan Chong built Anpo City in southern Liaoning, which was an important place to defend Tokyo, and after he built it, he did not steal the evidence, but transferred the soldiers to Liaokou to help defend it, and sent Wu Du to guard Anpo. In all his actions, it can be seen that he is a loyal and upright man. What's more, he is the son-in-law of the first lord! In terms of relatives and merits, I can't treat him badly. ”
Sakai sighed: "I also know that he is loyal and capable, but the Han Department does not change his customs for a day, and I am always uneasy in my heart." To put it bluntly, what I'm worried about is not that the Han has the heart to rebel, but that the Han has the power to rebel. Zhi Yanchong has the virtue of surrendering to the countrymen, Yang Yingqi has the ability to dominate the world, and the other five brothers are all in charge of their own roles. The emperor is eloquent and strategic, and with him one day, the Han Department will definitely be loyal and obedient. But what about when our generation is gone? Among the sons and daughters of your generation, how many can be able to suppress the Han Department? ”
Zong Han was shocked when he heard this, what Sakai said was no longer just about the matter, but worried about what would happen after Ah Gu was killed. This kind of topic can only be brought up when father and son are alone. After thinking about it, he said: "At the moment, Yan Chong has no signs of rebellion, is my father too worried about this?" ”
Sagai added: "It's a bit too much, but I can't help but worry about it." Alas, such a good child, why is it not my Wanyan descendant! ”
Zong Han said: "It's better for me to take advantage of his coming back this time to probe his tone." ”
Sagai hurriedly stopped: "No! How smart Zhi Yanchong is, no matter how tactful you ask, he will definitely be able to guess what you mean. This kind of thing, if you don't break it, you will be fine, and it will be irreparable as soon as you say it, if he thinks we are suspicious of him, I am afraid that it will cause trouble when the time comes. ”
Zong Han said: "That father means ......"
Sagai sighed: "Those who balance the lesser of two evils, if the proposal to change the customs fails, there is no way, so they have to stop moving." ”
Zong Han said: "Once the Han Department does not move, where should it go?" ”
"Don't get too close, don't go too far," he said. You can't do it in a difficult place, and you can't do it in a dangerous place. ”
Zong Han asked, "How about letting him go to the Mur Wei?" "Murwei is a large tribe north of the Jurchens, and the Mongols and other tribes are all branches of Murwei.
Sakai said: "It's a wild place, but I'm afraid he won't go." The Han Department opened so many fertile fields and beautiful lands in Huining, if they were driven to Xiaoxianbei Mountain (Xiaoxing'anling), they were afraid that they would be resentful, and the emperor would not agree. ”
Zong Han asked again: "How about letting them go and govern the Jurchens of the East China Sea?" ”
Sakai shook his head and said, "It's too wild there. Moreover, the mountains and rivers are isolated, and it is inconvenient to control. Besides, our biggest enemy now is the Khitan. Although my Dajin has won one after another, Daliao is one of the best powers in the world, deep-rooted, and it is not trivial! As long as it has not been destroyed, it cannot be taken lightly. The Han Department is brave and good at fighting, and it is a pity to idle them to the rear. ”
Zong Han groaned: "The area around Huanglong Mansion is naturally not possible, well, what about the Liaoyang Mansion that Yan Chong just defeated?" ”
Sagai thought for a long time and said: "Tokyo must not be, but Liaoning can." I have seen the map of Yang Yingqi's private system, from Chenzhou to Fuzhou, there is no natural danger to defend, and it is not a place that can be separated and self-reliant. The back side of southern Liaoning is the sea again, and there is no backup to rely on. As long as there are heavy troops in Tokyo, it is like storing water in the highlands and facing the valley, and the iron hooves can walk all over the Liaodong Peninsula in one day and one night. If the Han Department cultivates and grazes in southern Liaoning, in the future, our army will conquer Liao, and the grain and grass can be guaranteed. It's not too poor there, so I don't know if Orihiko Chong is willing to go. ”
Zong Han asked, "Yang Yingqi's private map?" Is it the one he presented to the lord of the kingdom? ”
Sagai laughed: "No! This kid is very ghostly! He has another one that is more detailed. ”
Zong Han asked again: "He actually did it so secretively, how did my father get it?" ”
Sakai smiled and said, "It's not a fair thing about this. I've always been very concerned about Hanbu......"
Zong Han understood, smiled slightly, and didn't ask anymore.
