Chapter 740: Moving the capital north
"If Yang Ziqian had known about such a battle situation, he would definitely have waited for a few more days, and then he would have returned to Goryeo directly from Shenyang Mansion without having to cross the ocean."
Yang Lin was very proud and joked with his subordinates.
"This war, as early as I expected, nearly ten years of conscientious planning, planning and preparation, what is the matter, but this is not enough."
Zhang An said very interestingly: "The young ruler is wise, but the north is strong." ”
Looking at the triumphant Yang Lin, Zhang An admired from the bottom of his heart, since ancient times, the so-called prosperous era means that the people will not die of hunger.
After Yang Shaozai took power, what he did was actually taken a closer look, and he didn't have much time to spend on military affairs.
He has been controlling waters, new deals, building roads... Dairy cows, meat sheep and horses were introduced to open up the trade routes in the southeast and northwest.
Abolish forced labor, encourage childbearing, popularize culture and education...
Since ancient times, he has been eloquent in martial arts, attacking the Xiongnu, Wuhuan, and Turkic in the north. It is not uncommon for a number of male lords of different races to wait.
However, it is actually unprecedented for the people to not only have enough to eat, support the old and young, but also begin to read and write, eat meat and drink milk.
He looked sideways, this young man was not calm at all, and even a little frivolous, and his reputation was mixed.
If Yang Shaozai wants to ascend to the throne, I, Zhang Anshao, have to wave the flag and shout, not to get rich for promotion, but to follow him to witness an unprecedented prosperity.
This kind of pragmatic officials, almost all of them have this mentality, and they all say that when the emperor is the emperor, the flowers are brocade, the fire is boiling, and the service is a prosperous era.
But that prosperous era was only in Bianliang City, and it only benefited the monarchs, ministers, and doctors.
Now it is not the case, the whole world is prosperous.
Yang Lin saw that he didn't speak, and thought he was embarrassed to speak, so he stood up, wiped his face casually, and picked up the dishes and chopsticks to drink porridge. While asking: "Coming early in the morning, eighty percent is not a good thing, in my opinion, it is either money or people." ”
Zhang An came out of his thoughts and said with a smile: "If you don't say that Shaozai is like a god, I can't hide anything from you, hehe." This Changchun Prefecture is really a treasure land, fertile fields are fertile fields for thousands of miles, sowing seeds, you can have a bumper harvest, especially the rain is abundant, and diseases and insects are scarce. Therefore, the lower officials sincerely asked the imperial court to issue another relocation order. ”
"If Changchun and Shenyang can be built, wouldn't it be one more big province! There is also an extra screen. ”
Yang Lin put down the porridge, sighed and said: "I don't understand this truth, but we Han people pay attention to falling leaves and return to their roots, so it is not easy to let everyone leave their hometown." ”
Zhang An stepped forward and said, "If your subordinates don't have some ideas, how dare you come to see Shaozai." I think this matter has to fall into the hands of the Department of Culture and Education. ”
"Department of Culture and Education?" Yang Lin asked puzzled.
"Wow, the Department of Culture and Education has the Di Bao in control, and can trumpet the benefits of this place in the Di Bao. Not to say that it is so exaggerated to say that there is gold everywhere, it is said that the paddy fields are fertile, the climate is suitable, and the people in the customs are reluctant to migrate, and there is also a point that they are afraid that this place is the land of the northern captives, and if there is a rise of foreign races, I am afraid that they will bear the brunt. ”
"If this is the case, we should announce in the newspaper that there are no more Tartars in the north, so that the people can rest assured."
Yang Lin paused for a moment and said, "Isn't this fooling people?" ”
Zhang An shook his head and said: "No, no, no, this is a little embellishment, and the original intention is good, which is very different from fraud." ”
Yang Lin was tempted, this is a good idea, no matter how fanciful the policy is, it is not as good as bragging to demagogue.
He thought about it, no one in the north was willing to come, and the last thing Zhang An said was indeed reasonable.
Everyone is worried that there will be a new alien race rising, and it will be very difficult for the border people to survive at that time.
You must know that in every dynasty, the suffering of the border people is the worst.
What they are facing is a Tartar who has no humanity and comes to kill and rob.
Whether it is the Xiongnu, the Wuhuan, the Turks, the Khitan, the Jurchens, the Mongols. Their essence is the same, that is, a group of robbers who kill people without blinking an eye and have amazing destructive power.
Even if it is a prosperous dynasty, it is difficult to put an end to this kind of behavior of attacking the grass valley, because they can't survive if they don't rob it.
People are dying of hunger, so what happens to you? Let's survive first.
If you want to dispel such doubts of the people, it is far from enough to boast in the newspapers and publicize it by the Department of Culture and Education.
At this moment, Yang Lin had the idea of moving the capital to Youyan in his heart.
I don't know if the later Ming Dynasty had the same idea after the five expeditions to Mobei and the six expeditions to Mongolia.
Seeing that he didn't speak, Zhang An thought that he was thinking about how to arrange the affairs of the Department of Culture and Education, but he didn't know that the person in front of him had already made up his mind to move the capital.
If Zhang An knows, it is estimated that he will not be able to sleep for three days with excitement. The border land of Hebei, is it finally going to turn over?
Yang Lin gave an order here, and the court naturally listened to the dispatch, and the Department of Culture and Education soon began a series of propaganda aimed at the migration of the people.
First of all, he organized Li Qingzhao and other great writers of the Department of Culture and Education to travel outside the customs at public expense, write poems and lyrics, and write splendid articles.
Then each issue of the newspaper has a special section, the praise of Changchun Prefecture and Shenyang Prefecture, the description of this place is fascinating.
Yang Lin held it and watched a few issues, if it weren't for the fact that he could see the desolation and wildness everywhere as soon as he raised his eyes, he would have believed it.
Immediately afterwards, the Zhongshu Sect issued a corresponding decree, and all those who went out of the customs to reclaim the famine would be exempted from paying taxes for three years. And after arriving, the imperial court will give the family half a year's rations. So that you can concentrate on settling down, building a house, and settling here.
Many people finally couldn't bear it anymore and dragged their families to travel together, and in many counties with poor land, neighbors accompanied each other and went north together.
The imperial court came up with another idea, mobilized the sleeve building, mobilized the chariots and horses of various provinces along the way, and transported the people.
At this time, it was approaching the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the northland was gradually getting colder, and the three-way army was still slowly advancing.
Along the way, they didn't care about the success of one city or one place, but relied on spaceships and telescopes to detect the enemy.
Specially go to places where there are Jurchen soldiers and horses, and take the eradication of the Jurchen new force as the main purpose of the operation.
The Jurchens are just those people, kill one less and one less...
This kind of play, let a generation of heroes finish fighting, and there is no way to do it.
In the face of absolute strength, the fierceness of individual soldiers and the bravery of generals have lost their meaning.
On the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the army of the Song Dynasty approached the ancient city of Dalu.
The ancient city of Dalu is the blessed land of the Jurchens, in the battle of the ancient city of Dalu that year, Wanyan Aguta defeated 200,000 Khitan cavalry and 70,000 foot soldiers here.
At that time, Wanyan Lou Room was in high spirits, nine fell into the Liao formation, Wanyan Zongxiong defeated the left flank of the Liao army, the Liao army was in chaos, Wanyan Zongxiong seized the fighter and attacked the Liao right army, the Liao army was defeated and retreated, and entered the city to protect itself. At dawn the next day, the Liao army broke through and fled north. The Jin army chased north to Alougang and annihilated the Liao army.
It was after this battle that the Liao people no longer had the courage to be enemies with the Jurchens, and they surrendered one after another.
Now there is an army of hundreds of thousands, surrounding them in the ancient city of Daru.
