Zhao Yue proposed and forcibly promoted the Xia harvest strategy and the subsequent sacking of the Liao State and the eradication of the Western Xia...... And blackmail the Song Dynasty.

He knew very well that the plague of the Liao State had been destroyed, and although the Xia State was destroyed and the Song State was weak, the Liao State would be defeated faster without the worries of the Song and Xia sides. The Jin army would not have spent ten years slowly gnawing down the Great Liao State like in history, or it would be able to eat the Liao State in a few years.

Extorting the wealth of the Song Kingdom is what must be done now.

If you don't loot it early, are you still waiting for Zhao Ji's gang of criminals to continue to indulge?

Is it still waiting for the Jin army to kill, take all of them captive and take possession, and then the pirate country will work hard to collect and snatch it back?

The key is whether the lost wealth can be recovered after the Song was sacked by the Jurchen savages.

What is lost in the flames of war is lost forever.

Ignorant and ignorant savages who do not attach importance to the value of knowledge and civilization wantonly destroy in their ferocity, and all kinds of deficiencies that are difficult to find out where they are going cannot be saved and made up.

After all, China has been strong and wealthy for a long time in history, focusing countless riches from the world, but then it has disappeared from nowhere, gold and silver...... Nothing is missing. Lessons to be learned. Now that there is a chance to make amends, we must start to take it away as soon as possible. With a slight mistake, the Jin army will destroy the Liao and Song Dynasty and destroy the world.

Zhao Yue saw this very clearly, and his decision to sack Liao, Xia, and especially the Song State could not be changed.

At the same time, he also wanted to use this example to teach his own family members and imperial subjects who had become royalty the most vivid and stimulating lesson of the present time. Let the family members most clearly and profoundly realize what kind of terrible outcome will happen if they are corrupt, willful, hedonistic, and do not think about striving and enterprising, and also let the new Chinese people deeply realize what kind of misery the Chinese nation will incur if it is still corrupt, cowardly, conservative, blind and arrogant, and wishful thinking to show benevolence, nobility, tolerance, vanity, and greatness.

Historically, when the Song Kingdom was unlucky and perished, the Stick Kingdom, which enjoyed too much favor and care from the Song Kingdom, did not reach out to support and return a grain of rice, a penny, and a soldier. On the contrary, these countries can only gloat and shout for joy, only thinking of participating in the feast of destruction and getting a piece of it, and together with the strong, they will completely trample the Han nation to a deeper abyss.

Specializing in the spirit of closed captivity, carefully emasculating, pioneering and innovative consciousness of Confucianism, politics, culture, and traditional rules, a set of rules suitable for the backward era of agricultural civilization, do not meet the requirements of freedom of thought and spirit, the requirements of widely absorbing the essence of world civilization, and more importantly, the scientific and technological era of continuous innovation and unremitting breakthroughs in science and technology, and the spirit of unlimited imagination and breakthrough.

Even in the era of ignorance, what it has brought to the Chinese nation is all kinds of external vanity and stupid political model behaviors, and the extermination of human nature that can be wantonly slaughtered, plundered, and enslaved by nomads with the most primitive and simple barbarism with a fast horse scimitar, to the misery that cannot be described by words alone.

If a nation is accustomed to taking tricks in exchange for the goal of peace, it will develop the bones to gnaw when it encounters difficulties, and instead of facing the difficulties and bravely solving them resolutely and thoroughly, they will be clever and try to avoid them, just like water walking around the rocks in a river, leaving the problem there to be in the way and even become a greater and ultimately fatal hidden danger.

Walking around, this is not a characteristic that a proud and powerful nation can have.

Those who have this trait will never be qualified to become truly strong.

A truly powerful country and a great nation are all rising to the challenge, overcoming one historical legacy and new problem after another that their predecessors did not dare to touch, going through many hardships, dangers, and tests to become an iron steel and iron skeleton that cannot be broken or bent, and exploring and shaping the wisdom and self-confidence of the new era.

The Jurchens of the small clan destroyed the Great Liao and destroyed the Han civilization with a population of nearly 100 million, not how proficient they are in the art of war, not how superhuman their wisdom is, not that all the Jurchens are Wu Song who can kill tigers with their bare hands, and they are not difficult to kill even if they have an immortal sword......

Other than that

The fierce and warlike and greedy polar bear can still produce an elegant and charming demeanor but stupid B to self-mutilation and self-abolition of martial arts, Confucianism is deeply rooted in the genetically the same as the Chinese people, revival and strong, and cold and elegant and elegant image is excellent to make people respect and like the leader of Confucianism, and strive to pursue the noble thoughts and great saints of the ancient sages, in order to win the so-called love of people all over the world, the famous annals of history, unknowingly dragged the Chinese nation into the abyss of countless grievances in history, which is not unusual.

The reappearance of this kind of leader will inevitably lead to the external Virgin, and once again vain the selfless and generous support of the Celestial Empire, and to be tolerant and considerate and tolerant of foreign enemies' provocations and encroachments, while the native people will be confined to a crowded and increasingly barren land and can only eat themselves, and the so-called glorious self-reliance, fierce competition, and self-persecution will not only not enjoy all kinds of conveniences, benefits, and happiness that a strong country should have, but also use their own blood and sweat to be considerate and even hostile to our outsiders can live comfortably......

It would be too sad to pay too much price for revival and then there is a noble distinction between inside and outside, and to be generous or reluctant to the outside, and in fact only let the people of their own country bear the pain they have paid.

Isn't this alarmist?

The kind of situation where the personality and charm are so outstanding that people are respected and get to the top of the position, but after taking the position, they become the leader of Confucianism and stupidity, will not history repeat itself?

Therefore, we must not allow the stupid and stupid spiritual dregs of Confucianism to continue to take root in the Chinese nation.

For Zhao Yue, Confucianism in this era stifled science and technology, and he would never tolerate its existence.

It is already the limit of his objective and rational tolerance to tolerate the continued spread of several positive dogmas of Confucianism, so that the social atmosphere has the rules of truth, goodness, beauty, and old age.

It is to use the various tragedies of the fall of the Northern Song Dynasty to educate the new Chinese people to consciously reverse the inferior roots, lay a new concept and new spirit of high-spirited and enterprising, and let the foundation of new values be formed.

Freer, more high-spirited, braver, higher, faster, stronger, more pioneering and innovative, ambitious, more domineering, proud, confident and happy, this is Zhao Yue's cry and expectation from the bottom of his heart, and it is also the cry and desire that any country and nation will have.

And the earth's resources are limited, can only support a limited number of races to live well, you are a noble gentleman and peaceful, courteous and humble, others will not be polite will even take away all that belongs to you. The strong have everything, and what they do is justice and truth. The weak have nothing, and what they do is wrong, and the guilty should be ridiculed and condemned.

That's the most realistic thing.

Zhong Xiang was a fanatical supporter of Zhao Laoer, the most loyal believer and follower, and was naturally the staunchest supporter and executor of Zhao Yue's robbery and blackmail plans.

He himself knew the significance of the matter.

Therefore, there will be no soft-heartedness in the execution of blackmail.

When the country is in trouble, and those who bear the cost of disasters are always the lives and rights of the people who are sacrificed first.

This is a social necessity, regardless of the era and country.

Because the people have created the primary material wealth of the society, they are on the front line as soldiers, laying down and defending the existence of the country and the nation, and those who are officials do not directly create wealth, but only rely on two pieces of lip service to withstand the material needs of the country when the country is in trouble. Sacrificing the people is the only option. This kind of thing, the Song rulers will only be more justifiable to do so.

After paying the treasury, the first thing that the Song court wanted to loot was naturally the people, not only in the capital, but also in the entire Gyeonggi region.

The army was dispatched to search the ....... from house to house.

All the gold, silver, jewelry, money, grain, and cloth that the people of the capital had...... It's all looted. Women's hairpins were also plundered. Among them, there are businessmen and other big families who have official relations and power backers, and who used to live even more decent, more powerful, and less difficult to mess with than ordinary officials.

At this time, if the family does not have the dignity and power of being a direct official, it will be useless, just like scraping. Because without this, the pirate's mission cannot be completed.

Even if you loot like this, I'm afraid it won't help.

In order to scrape together enough money to buy the "ransom" for the survival of the country, and in order to protect the property interests of the officials' own families, the big households of the people have to scrape sooner or later.

These big families are not ordinary people who are easy to bully, they are also arrogant old men and young women, and they see that their own property, including beautiful maids, concubines, celebrity chefs, etc., is gone, and all kinds of threats are playing tricks...... Naturally, it was staged. The four cadres of the leading group that specifically carried out the raid ordered the officers and men to beat them on the spot, arrested them in prison, and even cut down a few of the most ferocious ones.

The same is true for the Gyeonggi region outside of Gyeongseong.

The Gyeonggi local tyrants and inferior gentry who were not directly affected by the immigration frenzy in the summer harvest season were finally unlucky this time, and they were caught off guard against official disasters, money, food, and various property, and the jewelry worn on the women's heads were not pulled, even if it was only a fine bronze piece, plus the women, children, and skilled manpower to be collected by pirate standards, all ......

Large households, whether they are in Beijing or outside Beijing, naturally do not all the important money and property are piled up in obvious warehouses so that they can be watched and robbed, and there are various secret hiding methods such as cellars and dark rooms. Even if the Beijing army searched carefully from house to house, it was impossible to find the secret and raid it. The same is true for small houses.

But the official acts according to the law, and can be more open than the robbers to commit murder and coercion, torture the housekeeper, torture the master of the house, and then torture the son and young master of the important position in the family, and finally torture the wife of the house to be thoughtful and testifying, how can the big families resist this torture, although some can still hide from the world and cross the sea, but most of them are recruited.

To do this kind of thing of looting people's wealth and harming their own people, the rulers of the Confucian regime used many wonderful means to demonstrate the power of wisdom on the basis of power and violence against internal envoys.

For example, the Kaifeng Mansion saw that the gold and silver looted were far from enough, and the amount was too far from the expected amount, and it was expected that there would be a large sum of money that could not be copied on the spot, so it collected the only rice that the pirates did not want but could have left, whether it was a personal family or a grain store, so that all the people in the capital and Kaifeng Prefecture under the jurisdiction of the city were starved of food, and set up markets around Kaifeng City to exchange rice for gold and silver. At this time, it is the late autumn after the autumn harvest, and the food that nature can provide for survival is scarce, but people have to eat, which makes the large and small families who have successfully hidden the money unable to resist, and they are hungry, and the hidden gold and silver can only be taken out in exchange for rice to survive.

Fortunately, the small civilian household is fine, there are not a few really valuable gold and silver utensils, gritting their teeth and taking out the hidden ones, and changing them once is gone. Officials are not prosecuted for harboring crimes.

There are really no people with gold and silver, at this moment, there are forbidden soldiers who are eyeing and deterring and saying that if they kill someone, they will kill people, and if they don't dare to make trouble and can't get food, they can only resist with hunger.

At this point, the people of the capital no longer have the kind of superiority mood and mentality that the pirate envoys ridiculed and ridiculed Zhong Xiang when they entered the city, only cursed weakly. Scolding pirates for being greedy and ferocious, scolding officials for being useless and ruined can only harm the people. At first, he mainly scolded pirates, but later hated and concentrated on cursing the court.

The reason for the shift is simple.

Pirates are outsiders, and it is normal for people to have no mercy for the Song people's life and death, and to be ruthless.

And it is not right for the court to abuse the people so much. I am your people, and I am the one who supports your officials to live a dignified and dignified life, how can you ......

In short, unscrupulous, finally received a small punishment.

This is only the beginning, and the real painful days are yet to come. When the Jurchen beasts come, then they will have the deepest, clearest and most intuitive understanding of what it means to be ferocious.

But as soon as the big family sells gold and silver, it will be finished,

has been stared at by the official, and no matter how he hides his identity to exchange rice, he can't escape being detected and found out. Taking out a little bit of gold and silver, what leads to being caught and directly questioned and tortured to extract confessions, and he is not a strong man who regards death as his home, even if he wants money and does not want his life, he who is pampered and pampered cannot withstand torture, and the hidden money is also recruited.

Sure enough, a large amount of gold, silver, and more precious jewels and jade were found, and so far the people were basically emptied of this class.

During this period, the government officials and the forbidden army in the capital were the main force and front-line operators, and they would inevitably take the opportunity to pack rare things into their own waists to make a fortune.

But this little cleverness of the lower-class people is not the opponent of the officials.

If it was in the past, the house raiding activities, being an official would be a big head, and he would turn a blind eye to the soldiers who were dipped in oil and water, and if it wasn't too much, he would not know and would not be investigated. This is also an unspoken rule of officialdom since ancient times. But this time it won't work, you can't be so used to being a pawn. The surface of the official is upright and clean, and if you don't take a little, the pawn can't even get half a point. When the raid was made, the officials did not squeak when they saw the private hiding, but after they returned, before the army returned to the camp and before the officials went home and returned to their homes, another group of forbidden troops immediately surrounded them, searched them one by one, and confiscated all the privately hidden property, and even their own property was implicated.

This incident naturally made the specific person who raided the house very angry, extremely unjust and unwilling. Officers and soldiers, in particular, can easily provoke a mutiny.

However, at this time, the officials are not afraid.

It's not that they're not afraid of the officers and soldiers rebelling for money, but they know that these forbidden army villains don't dare to compete with the pirates' purpose, and they're not afraid of the officers and soldiers.
