At the end of the training camp in early March, the new army entered the camp, and Zhao Yu also returned to the palace, according to the plan, the new army will receive a six-month basic training, and then according to the results and preferences of the training, re-dividing the department, and then receiving professional training. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info and although he no longer has to receive military training every day like before, there are not many things, and they need to be dealt with one by one and make arrangements.

First of all, the 100-day Northern Expedition ended victoriously, they penetrated hundreds of miles into the enemy's territory, fought thousands of miles, broke through more than 10 state capitals, annihilated thousands of enemies, seized a large number of military supplies, and transferred hundreds of thousands of people. The territory captured was not small, but the enemy was not much, mainly because the enemy suffered huge losses in the early defense battle, and the troops of several state capitals were almost exhausted; In addition, after the large-scale mobilization of the enemy's troops, the Northern Army withdrew in time, and there was no fierce fighting between the two sides.

Although the battle to conquer the north was more like a grand parade of the Song army in the interior, it was of far-reaching political significance, after all, it was the first counteroffensive after the fall of Lin'an and the establishment of the Xing Dynasty, and the enemy army 'fled'. From the perspective of inspiration and expanding the influence of the dynasty, it was extremely successful, so Zhao Yu still had to go to the dock to greet the generals returning from the Northern Expedition, in addition to expressing encouragement, but also to show his anti-Mongolian attitude.

In addition, the influx of a large number of immigrants still brought a lot of impact to Qiongzhou, after all, Zhao Hao has only been operating here for three years and is still in the entrepreneurial stage. Although a huge amount of money has been invested in the construction of infrastructure, the development of mines, the construction of water conservancy, and the reclamation of land for colonization, it can be said that the immigrants who went to Qiongzhou in the early stage have just been digested, and the hundreds of thousands of new immigrants who have re-influx are insufficient in terms of infrastructure construction and material reserves.

But the people have arrived, so we can't send them back! Zhao Yu knew that although this would bring a lot of pressure to Qiongzhou in the short term, it could bring impetus to Qiongzhou's development in the long run, after all, in ancient times, population was still the most important means of production, and of course, it could also provide more reserve soldiers for the dynasty. Therefore, while urging all provinces, ministries, prefectures and counties to do their best to resettle the migrants, he also went to the front line to pacify and solve the problem. Even the queen mother funded the establishment of porridge fields at the wharf and Fucheng to provide food for immigrants, and also led the palace maids to the porridge field to cook and put porridge for the immigrants.

After nearly a month of busy work, the migrants were finally resettled before the rainy season arrived, and although it cannot be said that the top and bottom were satisfied, it was also considered to be in danger, and there was no major chaos. Zhao Yu took the time to commend the meritorious heroes in the defense of Qiongzhou and the two battles of the expedition to the north.

Previously, after Chen Yizhong left, Lu Xiufu was the left minister, but I don't know whether he hoped that Chen Yizhong would return, or everyone ignored the matter, and he has not been promoted to the Duke of the Kingdom. And Zhang Shijie was not removed from the Privy Council because of the defeat of Yashan, but he was cut from his title. Wen Tianxiang was once captured by the Yuan army and was also cut off. Therefore, it is extremely rare to say that none of the three people in the phase of the current dynasty have titles.

According to the regulations of the previous dynasties, the status of the one-character king is higher than that of the two-character king, and among the one-character kings, Qin, Qi, and Wei were all great powers during the Warring States Period, so these kings are generally important kings. Others, such as the Wei Wang, are all minor kings, and this applies to other titles as well. Zhao Yu considered that the prince of the country was already a third-class title, but according to the regulations of the Great Song Dynasty, only the emperor's son could be crowned prince and county king, and a different surname could not be crowned king.

However, there is an exception in the Huizong Dynasty, that is, Tong Guan, a dead eunuch, was also named the king of the county for his contribution to the recovery of the sixteen states of Yanyun, which may also be due to the fact that he has no heirs to inherit. Therefore, Zhao Yu has not yet started the battle for the restoration of the country, and the three of them have reached the top of their ranks, and their titles are almost at the top, so they will not be sealed in the future, so this time they only restored the titles of Wen Tianxiang Xinguo and Zhang Shijie Yueguo, and crowned Lu Xiufu as Lu Guogong.

Because the matter of military reform has not yet been heard, for meritorious soldiers, Zhao Yu is only rewarded for his merits, leaving room for future reform. Now the Empress Dowager has seen and submitted it to the Zhongshu Province for discussion, and the most controversial of them is the official position of the implementation of the parallel civil and military ranks, and other aspects only need to be slightly amended. However, with the entry of those celebrities into the dynasty, while bringing a new wind, it also made the current situation more delicate, and they repeatedly wrote to the Queen Mother to oppose the military reform.

However, Zhao Yu was not in a hurry, he realized that this was not just a matter of military reform, but it involved changing the national policy of the Great Song Dynasty for 300 years, challenging the status of scholars, and it could not be changed overnight. And at present, the martial artists are in decline, and if he wants to point to them to turn the tables with all his might, there will only be a bloody purge, but it will touch the foundation of the rule of the Great Song Dynasty, and it is difficult for him to complete the important task of governing the country with his current ability, and he does not want to have a situation where one family dominates.

After such a long period of contact, Zhao Hao knows that the life of the military is really not mixed, the civil official and the military general are natural enemies, if the work of the civilian official is done well, the military general will have nothing to do, and he will not be able to reap the benefits, and if the military general has made meritorious service, it means that the civil official is a group of waste, which has caused the people's lives to be miserable. Therefore, civil officials usually speak ill of military generals and try their best to suppress them.

But martial artists are also individuals first and foremost, and they are flesh and blood, but no one pays attention to them and is excluded by civilian officials. Finally, several famous generals appeared, but they all rarely died well, either indulging in alcohol to escape, or suffocating to death, or even dying in prison. As for the rulers, they are generally more willing to be close to the civil officials, because the civil officials are obedient and easy to manage, and in case the military generals rebel, this is the most difficult thing to do. Therefore, they emphasized the civil and military suppression, and used civilian officials to control the military generals.

Military generals are naturally half a cut shorter than civilian officials, and they don't deal with them in the first place, so they have to obey the leadership of political enemies, and the results can be imagined. In this political environment, the warriors also regarded serving as soldiers and eating food only as a means of survival, so that when the war was together, as long as the food and salary could not be helped, the result of the battle was often to collapse at the touch of a button, and the army would disperse before the battle was fought.

The quality of the officers is also not flattering, many of them are Meng Yin enlisted in the army, because their ancestors became officials, so they also became officials, but their talents are far from their ancestors, and some of them can't even count how many soldiers, how many ships, and how many supplies they have. So there is no way to fight at all, this is a typical enemy without a way, disturbing the people, not only in the Great Song Dynasty, looking at the entire history, China's army is such a role most of the time. Eating and drinking the common people and harassing the common people in the end, when something happens, they run faster than the common people.

If you want to change this situation, Zhao Hao thinks that military reform is still needed, and he has to let people have a head start, understand why they are soldiers and eat food, and who they sacrifice their lives for. It is said that Wen Tianxiang is a strong advocate of improving the status of the warriors, which may also be due to the fact that he once led the troops to fight on the front line, and he felt that the old man had been pressing and did not do anything to expect this situation, so he waited until the northern army returned to the court. With his accession, he has an advantage, and he only needs to wait for the pros and cons to dispute before coming forward to convene a court meeting to make a final decision.

By May, the spring rice has been harvested and the fields reclaimed by the migrants have been sown with seeds, and the second crop will be harvested in three months' time, making up for the shortfall left by the resettlement migrants. Due to the interception of merchant ships by the Qiongzhou navy and the confiscation of their goods, some commodities in Qiongzhou were surplus, and Zhao Yu pushed these goods to the market, attracting the arrival of many feudal merchant ships, and some immigrants with considerable family resources also saw the business opportunities and bought ships to go to sea to join the ranks of foreign merchants.

In addition, due to the 'harassment' of the Northern Army, the Yuan Navy was unable to compete with the Song Navy for sea control. After Ali Hague 'recovered' the lost territory, while reporting the victory to Kublai Khan, he suggested that the king of Zhennan, Huantuo, adopt the policy of sealing the sea, move the residents within 30 miles of the coast, and only send heavy troops to guard the coastal state capital, to prevent the Song army from violating the border again, and to cut off the contact between the people in the interior and Qiongzhou, which caused the courtiers to worry, but Zhao Yu was not so pessimistic.

In Zhao Hao's view, the policy of forbidding the sea is also a double-edged sword, while cutting off the connection between the inland and Qiongzhou, it is also equivalent to giving up control of a large area of coastal land, even if it has deployed heavy troops in the coastal states and counties, but it is simply unable to take care of the long coastline, nor can it build a coastal Great Wall to completely isolate the connection with Qiongzhou, but will form a power vacuum with a width of 30 miles along the coast of Guangzhou.

According to the modern division, although the Song Dynasty lost a large part of the country, the capital was breached. However, the central government is still there, the leaders still exist, and even if only a corner of the country is left, it cannot be called a dead country, but only divided into national control areas and occupied areas. However, the two districts are not tightly segregated, and will be interspersed with numerous routes infested by smugglers, which will be closely connected to each other through transit markets for bandits and smugglers.

Qiongzhou now controls the Qiongzhou Strait, which is equivalent to choking the mainland's trade routes to Xiyi and Southeast Asian countries, and is also equivalent to strangling the financial routes of many people, so relying on the vast overseas market and Qiongzhou's cheap sea salt, it will definitely attract countless adventurers with dreams of making a fortune to enter and exit this vacuum area, and will also create a deformed prosperity. But no matter who wants to open up this smuggling channel, it can't be done without giving Zhao Yu some benefits, because he is the actual controller.

Now, after more than a year of operation, the bureau has established several smuggling caravans, and has built up an armed force based on smuggler salt dealers, not only in the coastal areas, but also in the Yangtze River valley. It can be said that as long as Zhao Yu coughs, the price of salt in Jiangnan can quadruple, and if he gets angry, he can make there be no salt to sell in the Jiangnan market. Now their mission has changed from simply selling illicit salt to secretly establishing an anti-Yuan base area, and this 30-mile vacuum area will become a guerrilla zone, through which they will infiltrate inland, connect various strongholds into a line, expand into a piece, and eventually become the actual control area of Qiongzhou.

Of course, this plan cannot be achieved overnight, and needs to be continuously improved and built. But now it can at least ensure that Qiongzhou can get the materials it needs, and earn money through these channels to support the development of Qiongzhou. In addition, Zhao Yu also planned to use these smugglers to buy materials in the occupied areas with the large ingots printed by the bureau, but he did not have to risk being caught, and he could continue to disrupt the economy of the Yuan Dynasty through the circulation of counterfeit banknotes......

"Ah......" The official documents on the case have been processed, Zhao Yu stretched his waist and stood up and pushed open the window, and the cool breeze with rain blew into the house, making him feel very comfortable and sweeping away the fatigue on his body.

After the chaos, Zhao Yu returned to the palace, and his life was on the right track. Now in the early morning, they practice martial arts with Yuan Miao, maybe the military life in the previous period has also allowed him to be honed, and there has never been anything too lazy to get out of bed, and he has practiced hard regardless of wind and rain. surprised Yuan Miao, who was disappointed in the little emperor for a while, and also made him feel strange that the little emperor's physical strength not only did not decrease compared to before, but also made great progress; In addition, the flexibility and coordination of the body have also been greatly improved, although they are still fat, but they are not clumsy; What makes him even happier is that his character has become more resolute, and he will not make excuses to be lazy, but consciously and voluntarily practice.

The relieved old monk Yuan Miao has begun to teach his Taizu Changquan after more than a month of restorative training for Zhao Yu, of course, this is not a later version that has been added to the vinegar by many people or deleted, but it is an authentic killing technique. And Zhao Yu also found that the old monk really regarded himself as the heir of the Taizu, and tortured him with a change of law, and the ring ruler in his hand was about to be broken. In addition, in addition to doing it himself, he also brought Faqiao's gang of disciples as sparring partners, and he was cleaned up by those rabbit cubs almost every time, and he didn't regard himself as an emperor at all.

Of course, in addition to practicing martial arts, the three masters also began to teach in turn, but the spring lecture was dragged by Zhao Yu. But Lu Xiufu, the child, also made a mistake, insisted on having a sutra feast, and finally made trouble with the Queen Mother and forced him to accept it, but Zhao Yu still made them compromise, and changed the lecture every other day to a lecture on five days, otherwise they would be scolded by the Queen Mother and refused to participate.

Thinking about this day, in addition to practicing literature and martial arts, he also had to review official documents, and from time to time he had to summon his ministers to ask about the situation and discuss methods, so there was not much time left for him to move freely. After entering June, the war had subsided, and all the work had been dealt with, so he was a little more relaxed. And now the rain is gradually increasing, but it is still very hot, so he has the idea of going to Boao Island to escape the summer. But Zhao Yu thought about the remnants of the celebrities who moved to Qiongzhou since they went to the island, he only met twice, and did not talk in detail, nor did he rush to arrange work for them, but asked them to organize a group to go on a trip around the island first.

Of course, this is not because he does not trust these people, but because he hopes that they will first have an intuitive understanding of Qiongzhou through the investigation of the whole island and put forward reasonable suggestions. Although there are no vain people under the fame, but Zhao Yu is actually testing their ability in this process, he needs some pragmatic doers, not fantasists who are not worthy of the name, the two-month trip should be over, and he should be busy meeting them......
