Chapter 713: The Loop
There is no more fearful time than this era, and there is no more comfortable time than this era.
The arrogance of the Jin people made them obviously not realize what an important turning point Wan Yanyong's death was in history, so that they would eventually go to extinction in the next few decades.
The comfort of the Song people, as well as the opportunistic psychology of the imperial court, with the death of Zhao Gou and Zhao Yan's unpsychological politics, also made the Southern Song Dynasty stand at a confused crossroads, and finally made the next few successors not as good as the next generation, and thus also went into decline.
Looking at history from the perspective of future generations, sometimes it will be found that Zhao Gou, the founding emperor of the Southern Song Dynasty, is still a leader in the history of the Southern Song Dynasty.
Liao is already in danger, although we don't see this momentum at the moment, but Liao's internal and external troubles are much more shaky than other countries.
Xia is strong and mysterious, even if the warlike folk customs discourage others, but his geographical location is too important, naturally, the increasingly powerful Tatars in the steppe, when they want to obtain greater benefits through war, they are the first tough stumbling block.
Dali is also weaker than other countries at this point in time, and it is not inferior to the strategy of the southwest and the world, and with the demise of the Southern Song Dynasty, it has not been able to save their fate.
From the perspective of future generations, we will find that every country in this era is on the verge of collapse, but sooner or later, but they have already shown signs of decline.
Even if a Tatar is able to conquer incredible territory on horseback, his strength is like a magnificent edifice without a foundation, and it is even more rapid and unexpected.
Looking at it, the heroes on the land of China at this point in time turned out to be the short-lived passers-by in the long river of history, like fireworks, especially the unification of the Tatars, which was so short and gorgeous.
The Prince's Mansion has not moved for many days, which made Ye Qing, who was in Jinan, finally breathe a long sigh of relief, he couldn't guess whether it was Li Fengniang, a girl, who knew how to take care of the overall situation, or whether someone was next to her to give her advice, so that she was not in a hurry to become the queen.
Bored and continued to flip through the map in his hand, with the large-scale withdrawal of the Jin people on Nanjing Road, including the Jin people scattered on Nanjing Road, they also began to follow the Jin soldiers to the north of the Yellow River and evacuate, Ye Qing's eyes also began to cast on the vast territory north of the Yellow River.
If you want to go further, it is impossible in a short period of time, but it does not mean that you can't plan for the future north of the Yellow River, especially the sixteen states of Yanyun.
Mo Xiaobao and Zhong Silkworm returned to the Jinan Mansion Office in a hurry, looked at Ye Qing, who was staring at the map alone, and began to report on what they had seen and heard in escorting Ye Luyue and Nanjing Road.
With the return of Zhong Silkworm and Mo Xiaobao, now Tian Lin and Li Zhongfang have changed their guards to Nanjing Road with the Flower Planter Army after more than two months of preparation, and Shandong Two Roads, in addition to Ye Qing who is sitting in the town, is the water army of Lao Liu Tou and Li San.
Chen Cishan and Xin Qiji have now become the pacification envoys and prefects of Nanjing Road, and when the two occupied the cities along the way, they complemented each other well, and also made all the things on the entire Nanjing Road go on in an orderly manner, even if it was an occasional small rebellion, etc., it could be suppressed in the shortest possible time.
Of course, the pacification process in this is naturally indispensable to the help of several princes of the Northland clan.
With the spread of several princes and emperors from Tai'an Prefecture on a large scale by Ye Qing, it has now become the best weapon to appease the people and win over the hearts of the people.
Shandong Lianglu because of Ye Qing's sitting, plus Yang Huai's road followed by Lao Liu Tou and Po Li San, and the pacification after the siege of the city and the land was also more and more handy, and now the entire Shandong Lianglu, at this time, finally restored the real peace and tranquility.
Jingzhaofu Road, which was in the hands of Yu Yunwen, went to Ye Luyue because Mo Xiaobao and Zhong Silkworm escorted Ye Luyue, which also made Ye Qing more at ease about Yu Yunwen, whom he had intersected with at the earliest.
Just like the appointment and dismissal of officials on Nanjing Road and Shandong Road, under Ye Qing's instructions, the will of the imperial court is now not as effective as Ye Qing's words in Yu Yunwen's heart.
It was precisely because of Yu Yunwen's indifferent attitude towards the imperial court and his obedience to Ye Qing's orders that after the news of the withdrawal of the Jin people on Nanjing Road reached Lin'an, Wang Huai instantly became panicked, and he was a little at a loss, and began to really regret the decision to appoint Ye Qing for the Northern Expedition.
In June of the sixteenth year of Chunxi, Shandong Two Roads, Nanjing Road, and Jingzhaofu Road finally restored the order that Ye Qing wanted.
Of course, Kaifeng Mansion still has its unique importance and sensitivity, because Ye Qing has never been involved, let alone sat in Jinan Mansion and Jingzhao Mansion sent by Kaifeng, which also made Wang Huai unable to get the response and support of others above the court if he wanted to use Ye Qing as a crime of rebellion and plotting against you.
Now everyone knows that Ye Qing is the real pacification envoy of the Beidi Four Roads, and even at the beginning, they were harboring evil intentions in Lin'an, so they waited for Ye Qing to go to Kaifeng Mansion to defend it, and then they were on top of the Lin'an court, and used the music that had already been prepared to attack Ye Qing with the heart of plotting against you and rebelling.
But Ye Qing obviously realized the sensitivity of Kaifeng Mansion for a long time, and now instead of guarding Kaifeng Mansion himself, even his general Xin Qiji, after pacifying Kaifeng Mansion, he continued to turn around and go west, and stationed in Xifu Zhengzhou, one of the four auxiliaries of Gyeonggi ruled by the Song Dynasty that year.
Under such a situation, Ye Qing's posture in the fourth road of the north has the demeanor of loyal courtiers, just like sweeping the couch and waiting for the imperial court to move the capital to Zhengzhou.
But today's Song Court, under the condition that Zhao Yan has no mental politics and ambition, under the premise that the entire Beidi Fourth Road is rectified by Ye Qing, not to mention that there is no psychological politics, Zhao Yan, who does not know Ye Qing's ambitions, even Wang Huai and others are ignoring Ye Qing's sweeping move.
What are you kidding, the entire Beidi Fourth Road is now your Ye Qing's territory, if you move the capital to Kaifeng Mansion at this moment, you Ye Qing will not be like Cao Cao back then, coercing the Son of Heaven to order the princes? In that case, will anyone else have anything to do? Doesn't all the officials have to look at your face?
Now they are in Lin'an, although they also have to look at Wang Huai's face and participate in politics, but after all, everyone still has oil and water to fish, freedom to speak of, not to mention the dying Han Cheng who was about to be suppressed by Wang Huai above the court, and now there are signs of resurrection, if once the two can fight again, stay in Lin'an, a place with pleasant scenery and flowers in all seasons, is not stronger than your Kaifeng Mansion where the winter is cold and the summer is hot, and the Yellow River floods from time to time? Isn't it better than watching you alone?!
glanced at Mo Xiaobao and Zhong Silkworm, who had finished talking about what they had seen in Jingzhao Mansion, and then watched Mo Xiaobao put a thick handwritten letter from Yu Yunwen on the table, Ye Qing quietly put the letter into his sleeve pocket.
Only then did his gaze shift to the map again, and he asked while looking, "Did Yu Yunwen say anything else?" ”
He said that now the Xia people are not restless, when he was attacking Jingzhaofu Road, the Xia people wanted to take the opportunity to capture Jin Guoxi Qin Road, but later, ...... Lord Yu guessed that the Xia people might be afraid that they would help us divert the attention of the Jin people because of this, so they gave up. But now that we have occupied the Jinren Fourth Road effortlessly, Lord Yu said, I am afraid that in the next two years, the Xia people will fight the idea of Jin Guoxi Qin, Qingyuan, and Yan Yan. Mo Xiaobao pointed to the three roads on the map and said.
The three roads on the map, the southern border borders the Jingzhao Mansion, which is now occupied by Yu Yunwen, and the Lizhou Road from which he came out, and is located to the west of the Yellow River from north to south, and if the Xia people want to advance eastward, they will naturally take the Xiqin Road first, followed by the adjacent Qingyuan, and the Yanyan Road that is more east of the Yellow River.
If the Xia people really have this intention, they naturally need to break through each of them, and then they can occupy these three roads, in comparison, if Yu Yunwen wants to go further north, he will have to rely on the Lizhou Road and Jingzhaofu Road, and at the same time face the Xiqin, Qingyuan, and Yanyan roads that are all at the junction of the two roads.
Ye Qing also wants to occupy these three roads, and even drools at these three roads whenever he looks at the map, of course, the strategic location of these three roads is not very safe, and even once it is taken, it will be in direct contact with the Tatars on the grassland.
But compared to being unwilling to clash with Temujin so early, Ye Qing was also eager to occupy all the territory within the Yellow River, and now outside the four roads south of the Yellow River, there was only the fertile Hetao region.
As the so-called Yellow River is harmful, only rich in one set, starting from Helan Mountain to the north, blocked by Yinshan Mountain and then flowing eastward, and then meeting Luliang Mountain and then southward, forming a zigzag, thus being called the Hetao.
Now Ye Qing has completely occupied the elongated place where the few characters stop and flowed eastward from Jingzhao Mansion to the south of the sea, so now looking at the middle of the three roads of those words, if you don't drool, it will be strange if you don't be greedy.
Moreover, in these words, not only is the soil fertile, but also the grassland that the Song people want the most, which is enough for Ye Qing to be self-sufficient in war horses.
Therefore, in the entire Xiqin, Qingyuan, and Yan Yan three roads, Ye Qing naturally wants to get him in his dreams now, so as to reduce Yu Yunwen's dependence on Lizhou Road behind him.
After all, today's Han Yanxuan is behind Yu Yunwen, once Han Yanxuan takes charge of Lizhou Road, it is equivalent to raising a sword behind Yu Yunwen, and he may be able to make Yu Yunwen suffer from the enemy on his back at some point.
