"The consumption of the Great Song Dynasty to raise troops far exceeded that of the Han and Tang Dynasties. However, the army has never had the prestige of the Han and Tang Dynasties, and a group of corrupt Confucians only said that the court had lost all the land for raising horses, and it was difficult to win the ride, but they did not know that there were hundreds of thousands of war horses in the time of Taizu, and when Taizong, the supervisors and the army still had more than 200,000 horses......"

"Isn't the place where horses are raised more than youyan and hetao? Between Lanzhou and Shizhou on the East River Road, there are many barren mountains, and on the side of the Fen River, the grassland is also wide, and the aquatic grass is the most suitable for shepherding......"

This is true. Hedong Road, the water and grass are very good, the terrain is cold, and it must be suitable for horse nature. Between the Tang Dynasty and Ru in the western part of Beijing, the wasteland is also wide. If the imperial court revitalizes the shepherd, how will there be such a shortage of war horses? ”

Hugh said that there are horse farms in the north, and there are also horse farms in the south of the Yangtze River. In the suburbs of Hangzhou, the former Wuyue Qian Wang herded horses in the east and west horses outside the Qiantang Gate, and his horses were prosperous, and the number was Mahai. The Great Song Dynasty was short of war horses, but it was actually the corruption of the court officials and the corruption of the horse government. ”

"Haha, Raozhou has five hundred and sixty-two horses, and five out of three hundred and ten are killed, and seven out of twenty are made of horses. Of the 562 stallions that were bred, 315 were raised, and the remaining 247 stallions were raised, and 27 foals were raised. "Not to mention that there are many records of the death of the whole gang of the city. But the imperial court has no intention of Ma Zheng at all, so what can it do? "It's better to be nomadic than to be nomadic, and it's better to buy a horse than to be nomadic." This student slapped his legs with hatred when he mentioned those dirty things.

"The imperial court guards the inside and outside, and abandons the horse government, although we are willing, what can we do? In the 160th year of the Great Song Dynasty, the land of the pastoral prison was mostly invaded by the right of the imperial prince as a farmland, and now the land of the pastoral supervisor is only more than 50,000 hectares, and the erosion and defeat of the horse government beetle can be seen! ”

In Taixue, Zhao Ding's side was surrounded by a group of people who were righteously and indignantly denouncing something. Zhao Ding, who was sitting in the middle, looked at the students around him either generously or complaining about their ugliness. These days, he has become accustomed to the scene at hand. Surrounded by a group of like-minded students, listening to their voices and providing them with some theoretical insights or support.

In a trance, he seemed to have become a professor in Taixue.

And this is exactly what His Royal Highness King Yan outside the city is looking forward to.

Because such a scene has become common in the entire Taixue, and even in the entire Bianliang City.

The strategies and questions that King Yan sent back to Qin Hui, because it was an open-book exam, the students inevitably discussed with each other, and then the discussion turned into a debate, and soon dragged the professors and doctors in Taixue into the water, and then it was Zhao Ding, a person who avoided Taixue.

Although his surname is Zhao, he is not a relative of the Zhao clan like Zhao Butry and Zhao Ziche, and he lost his father when he was four years old, but he has a good mother, and he has a book of history when he is an adult. In the fifth year of Chongning (1106), Zhao Ding Jinshi and the first. The official Luoyang County Order was appreciated by Prime Minister Wu Min and promoted him to Kaifeng Mansion Shicao. But as soon as he arrived in Bianliang, Wu Min fell. Zhao Ding, who had no support, went with the flow in Kaifeng Mansion, and was an inconspicuous soldier, until Zhao Huan fled south, Zhao Ding, who was faced with a choice, chose to stay, and packed his luggage early and lived in Taixue.

What Zhao Gou asked Qin Hui to pass in, has now spread to the entire Bianliang City, because the gains and losses of Tokyo City are not a problem for King Yan at all, and the consumption again and again has already caused all the eight bull crossbows and stone cannons in the city to be destroyed, and the northern army outside the city just didn't plan to enter the city, not that they couldn't enter the city.

With such a situation settled, who can turn a deaf ear to Zhao Gou's strategy and plans?

These people are realists, or dissatisfied, and when power overwhelms ideals, there are always a large number of people who rise up from the heart.

Just like the Jurchens and Mongols in history, how can they be civilian politics? What did the scholars of the conquered land of China do?

Now they are the same choice when they face Zhao Gou.

And mentally, I am much better than myself in the same period of history.

"Officials, officials ......"

Zhao Ding's external attitude is very tough, and he was the pillar of the main battle faction in the Southern Song Dynasty in history, so these students around him are mostly hot-blooded young people.

Not only is the attitude tough on the outside, but there are also many things that are not used to being seen internally. It's a bit like the keyboard warriors of later generations, from corruption to cronyism, from nepotism to specific policies and strategies, such as horse politics that involves the military.

Squirt, squirt, squirt. Regardless of whether they are high-eyed or low-handed, they are all generous statements, eager to say all the anger in their hearts, and the darkness and injustice in the world.

Just when the people had not dispersed, Zhao Ding's boy ran in and reported a new news - Li Ruoshui and Li Xianggong ordered the gates of the four walls of the inner and outer walls of Bianliang to be opened, so that the people could enter and exit the city gate at will.

Zhao Ding was stunned. "The people can enter and leave the city gate at will, and the northern army outside the city ......"

"The eight oxen crossbows and stone cannons in the city were destroyed, and the defenders were powerless to prevent the army of King Yan from entering the city. Li Xianggong and Liu Xianggong have already returned to their homes and closed their doors. ”

In other words, the soldiers and horses in the city have completely given up resistance.

Zhao Ding grew his mouth, he didn't expect Li Ruoshui to go out so open-mindedly, and Liu Tao acquiesced. This is very different from the Li Liu he knows.

Li Ruoshui at this moment.

His second brother Li Ruoxu looked at his brother with a foolish face. "I don't understand, whether it's King Yan or the official family, it's all the competition between the descendants of the Zhao family, what's the matter with you?"

"Your Majesty is the eldest son of the Emperor Taishang, who has been in the East Palace for more than ten years, and has not lost his morality. King Yan used his enemies to bully his brother and steal the throne, and his style was not right. ”

Although he had already ordered the city gate to be opened, which was tantamount to giving up resistance, Li Ruoshui made up his mind not to urinate with Zhao Gou.

"Then Taizong is the ancestor of the dynasty, and he will be upright when he gets the throne?" I won't mention the example of Tang Taizong, just talk about Zhao Lao Er and Zhao Lao Da, this is just wrong, there is no need to break it.

Li Ruoxu is not a scholar, or he has no talent for reading, but because of his brother, he was given an official position by King Yan. Others thought that this was Zhao Gou trying to win over Li Ruoshui, but no one would have thought that Zhao Gou was just pushing the boat along the water.

After the martyrdom of his brother, Li Ruoxu in history was besieged by Zhao Jiumei and entered the office, starting from a small official, and walked to Si Nongqing in more than ten years, which is a third-grade official.

Of course, Zhao Gooneng remembered Li Ruoxu, not because of how big an official he was, but because he was impeached by Qin Hui's henchman Luo Ruji, dismissed from office, and then was sent to Huizhou for "detention" and died in a degraded place because of "stealing current politics, not following the provincial government, and singing as a floating rumor".

Li Ruoxu was under Yue Fei's account for several years, and Yue Fei had a deep friendship, and in the seventh year of Shaoxing (1137), Yue Fei was canceled by the Song court because of the plan to unify the Northern Expedition of Huaixi and other armies, and resigned in anger. It was Wang Gui and Li Ruoxu who went to the Donglin Temple in Lushan together and urged Yue Fei to go out of the mountain to reinstate.

Now Li Ruoxu has become a member of the Qingzhang Division of the Hebei Qing Officials Division under the Ministry of Households. The control is small, but the authority is not small. Because the so-called Hebei Qing Officials Division and Qingzhang Department are both newly established institutions of the Northern Army.

Under the rule of Zhao Gou, the authority of the household department can be said to have been greatly strengthened, and under the rule of the left and right servants, various Qing officials were set up to take charge of the territory, fields, household registration, taxes, salaries and all financial matters of the country. Its internal administrative affairs are set up according to the regional division of labor, which is the Department of Cleaning Officials. The chief officer is Lang Zhong, and the deputy is Wai Lang. In addition, there are also institutions such as the current examination office, the donation office, the supervision and printing office, and the inner warehouse, as well as the mint bureau in charge of coinage, and the warehouse yamen in charge of warehousing and water affairs.

The institution under the Qing Officials Division is the department, and the Qing Zhang, as the name suggests, is the institution in charge of measuring the acres of land.

Li Ruoxu entered Qingzhang to do things at this stall, it was simply too sensitive.

Li Ruoshui once resolutely told his brother to quit this errand, but Li Ruoxu was unwilling. "King Yan has not yet sat on the dragon chair, and has reduced and adjusted dozens of taxes, such as grain and rice consumption, head money, Yicang tax, agricultural tool tax, cattle leather tendon and horn tax, entry tax, silkworm salt money, Quyin money, and market ......money, all of which have been abolished. Waste branch transfer, waste conversion ......"

"You don't know anything when you sit in Bianliang City, and go to the countryside to take a look, do they love the orthodox Zhao official family in their hearts, or do they love His Royal Highness King Yan more?"

"Don't think that the world is a scholar, the men who serve in the army are all ordinary people!"
