Chapter 11: This is a time of change
There is thick accumulation before thin hair. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
It's almost a certainty.
The most important thing now is to lay a solid foundation.
The accumulation of talents is not as good as the Great Song Dynasty, the depth of the land is not as good as the Khitan, the warriors are not as strong as the Western Xia, and the firm faith is not as good as the Great Food.
This is the reality.
He was surrounded by these people and these countries, and he could not move.
Time is always running out, just like the wheat in Hami, green and yellow, yellow and green.
When Tie Xinyuan stood in the wheat field, there was always a sense of pride and relief in his heart.
What is National Strength?
A field of wheat full of wheat is the strength of the nation.
He even thinks that anything that can be put in his mouth is national power.
If everyone in Hami can eat meat every day, Tie Xinyuan will not do any in Jiuchi Meat Forest for a day, and the national strength will flourish.
In this world, all troubles come from the stomach, and the hunger and fullness of the stomach determines people's thinking, and also determines whether there is war and peace.
If everyone had enough to eat, no one would be stupid enough to start a war, and of course, ideological wars are not like this, only a bunch of crazy people would think of changing the minds of others.
Plunder comes from the fear of hunger, and the hungry man is eager to pile up all the food in the world around him, even if he only eats a little every day, he also wants to monopolize it, even if it is only to satisfy the satisfaction of visual desires.
This is becoming more and more evident in the Western Regions.
Today, the Dawan Kingdom, which has been destroyed for many years, was suddenly re-established, and tomorrow, the newly established Dawan Kingdom was wiped out by Musin, and the day after tomorrow, the Kangju State, which was obviously a puppet country, suddenly declared itself independent again, and called on all the countries in the Lingling region to resist Musin's tyranny.
Tie Xinyuan didn't know what this matter had to do with the Living Buddha of Sakya, as well as Aisha and Adan, anyway, Mu Sin's footsteps were dragged to the Green Ridge.
The death of the Qarakhanid announced the end of the most orthodox royal family of a khanate, and Musin's theft of the country is said to have been nailed to the frame of shame in history.
Seeing these news, Tie Xinyuan sighed, and closed the paperwork, Mu Xin was coming.
You can't fight with your mouth unless you bite with your teeth.
The higher the opposition to Musin, the more secure Musin's control over the Green Ridge is, and the biting dog never barks, and it is clear that Musin is such a dog.
Only expropriation can arouse public resentment, Muchin is not a person who loves money very much, and the reason why he will extort and extort excessively can have only one purpose, that is, to reserve military rations.
In this era, the transmission of news always lags behind, and when Tie Xinyuan knew the Kangju Kingdom, the Dawan Kingdom, and the news of the establishment of the Rouran Kingdom, these countries were likely to no longer exist.
The people of the Western Regions have a deep understanding of force, and it is only natural for folk singers to use songs denigrating Musin in exchange for a little money and food for those who have been exploited.
In the Western Regions, it is very difficult to make a feasible plan in advance, and it is the right way to lead by taking one step at a time, and if you want to plan one step further, you are often doing useless work.
The same view applies to the Great Song Dynasty.
After Zhao Zhen knew the news of the birth of his own grandson, it is said that Long Yan was happy for three whole days, especially after seeing the toad birthmark on his grandson's buttocks, and held a grand banquet in the palace.
If such a sin is placed in the heavenly court, it will be thrown into the quicksand river and become a monster, but Zhao Zhen turned a blind eye, he knew very well what virtue his little wife was, and the queen also knew very well that taking such a poor woman as an opponent would insult her Cao family's excellent IQ.
King Qingtang!
This is Tiexi's title.
In the huge opposition of the ministers, this title was still successfully implemented, Qingtang City is Tiexi's fief, which is the first fief that can have actual control since the founding of the Great Song Dynasty.
Although Qingtang City is still in the hands of the blind felt, the two armies of the Great Song Dynasty and Hami have already arrived in the city, and the capture of Qingtang is what will happen in the near future.
Once the gate of Qingtang City was blown open by explosives, the end of the blind felt would come, and he had nowhere to go.
did not hide the false Pang and Di Qing, the war between Yang Wenguang was still going on, but the battlefield had changed a lot.
In May, he did not hide Pang to see that he could not attack Yanchuan, so he sent his general Kui Mingrong out of Lanzhou from the south, and 30,000 iron cavalry went straight to the back of the Song army.
Taking advantage of Di Qing's departure, he once again launched an unprecedented attack on Yanchuan, but unfortunately, in the face of a large number of new weapons, the fierce warriors of Western Xia suffered heavy casualties.
The new type of fierce fire oil and new gunpowder played an unparalleled role in this battle, and the creation of the god arm crossbow that achieved mass production leveled the combat power level of the Western Xia warriors and the Song army.
In the battle of Yanchuan alone, 90,000 catties of fierce fire oil, 74,000 catties of gunpowder, and more than 1.4 million crossbow arrows were consumed...... Yanchuan has become a sad place that the Tangut people cannot forget.
In the face of the surging opposition in the country, Wuzang Pang had to lead the army back to Zhuo Luocheng, and the battle line between the Great Song Dynasty and Western Xia returned to the situation of a year ago.
The Great Song Dynasty is also about to usher in an unprecedented victory, which is more exciting than the victory of the Southern Expedition.
The Northern Front of the Great Song Dynasty, which had been silent for a long time, finally shifted from defense to a strategic offensive posture.
Under the auspices of Xia Wei, Cangzhou Prison City became an empty city overnight, and all the official governments of the Great Song Dynasty were quickly trying the cases in their hands.
Those who can be spanked do not spank, and those who can cut off their heads do not cut off their heads, and those who can be assigned to Lingnan are not pardoned.
Even the prodigals who run rampant in the streets, the scoundrels who walk the streets, and the rangers who fight in the streets are also in the ranks of the cleanup.
It is said that even the unfilial sons who are disobedient and unfilial, the sluts who cheat on others, the Yanni in the nunnery, the lewd monks in the monks' temples, and the beggars who beg along the street are also on the list of criminals who are assigned to Hami.
The Great Song Dynasty and Hami finally passed through the land of Qingtang, as long as the Great Song Dynasty did not want it, all the abandoned ones were lost to the Hami Kingdom.
In the Tokyo street market, there is a prosperous scene of never leaving the road behind and never closing the door at night.
Unlike the Uighurs who came over last year, all the expenses for their arrival in Hami came from the Great Song Dynasty.
To ensure that all the money and food for these people to live for a whole year came from the Great Song Dynasty, of course, it was impossible for the vicious and ruthless Xia Wei to take this money and grain from the Great Song Dynasty treasury.
As a result, the only place that can pay this money and grain is Qingtang.
The road was too far away, and it was not cost-effective to transport many things back to the Great Song Dynasty, so countless merchants took the opportunity to work tirelessly to deliver grain to Qingtang, and then exchanged the grain for booty, cattle and sheep, and fertile pastures, mountains and lakes with the Great Song army.
The biggest piece of fat was eaten by the merchants who accompanied the army, they wiped a handful of oily lips, and sneered at the Great Song Dynasty's plan to prepare Taoguang for ten years, in their opinion, since the Great Song Dynasty has already controlled the river and peeped at Yin Mountain, why can't they continue to control Yin Mountain and peep at Yinxia?
Didn't you see that Pang had been beaten away by Di Shuai and General Yang? Why not take advantage of the victory?
Without the war, what would these fat and fat guys who relied on the war eat?
The southern expedition was victorious, the river was victorious, and Zhao Zhen's people finally tasted the dividends of the war.
After the Southern Expedition, the price of spices dropped like an avalanche, and the three-crop rice that Jiaozhi had brought back had begun to be sown on a large scale in the south, and the grain prices that had always been high in the Great Song Dynasty gradually showed a downward trend.
The most practical benefit that the victory brought to the people of the Great Song Dynasty was that the prices of mules, horses, cattle and sheep plummeted.
In the past, the price of a horse in the Great Song Dynasty was at least more than eight yuan, but now it has fallen to three yuan, and few people still care about it.
After a large number of Qingtang horses entered the Great Song Dynasty, the number of horses eliminated by the army was too much.
The plundering of the Qing Tang by the Song people was devastating, and the earlier statement that they had given preferential treatment to the Qing Tang was gone.
Under the auspices of Fu Bi, an unprecedented reckoning began.
Bao Zheng wrote to the emperor and said: "...... There are no Qing Tang people in Hehuang Land, no Qing Tang City, no Qing Tang Land, and there are countless people buried in the road to death, either as shepherd slaves or as concubines...... Those who have a little property are tortured, and those who are innocent are guilty, and those who are not punished are punished
…… If there is a blame for the government, the army will come in an instant, and another rebellion will disappear invisibly, and the soldiers will get military merits, and the government will get money and food, and they will be compatible......"
The emperor archived Bao Zheng's recital after reading it, and in the future, it may be recorded in the history books that someone once spoke for those poor people, and that's all.
The bigwigs of the Great Song Dynasty knew that they could not exploit the border people in the border areas in such a cruel way, and that doing so might provoke a popular uprising, which was very troublesome.
However, these people subconsciously think that Hehuangdi is not a border land, and Hami is the real border land.
Since Hehuang is no longer a frontier land, it is natural to be included in the government ruling system, and there will be great governance after the chaos, and there will be the will of the people after the great governance, and it will be good to repaint on a blank piece of paper.
They have a lot of experience in this.
Tie Xinyuan, who was sitting in the study, looked at Wei Chi Zhuozhuo, who was leaning against the window and napping, and smiled to himself: "Finally, there is a little change. ”
After speaking, he closed the paperwork sent from Tokyo, drank the herbal tea in the teapot, and mustered up all the courage to walk out of the door, the fierce sun shone on the earth, everything in the world is wilting, and no one dares to challenge the sun at this time. (To be continued.) )
