In the cold winter, in Juyongguan, it is desolate.

It has also become a white, real "northern scenery, thousands of miles of ice, thousands of miles of snow".

At dawn in the morning, tens of thousands of cavalry rushed out of Juyong Pass and headed south.

"Brother Yue, we can finally leave Juyong Pass and go to Datong!" The two leading generals, one of them looks ordinary and looks ordinary, who is it if it is not Yue Fei? Next to Yue Fei was Dong Xian, and Dong Xian smiled at this moment.

"Your Majesty has just come to Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures, and the Khitans are not subject to the rule of the imperial court, and Your Majesty wants to take iron-blooded measures to clean up the Khitans, so we stayed in Juyong Pass for a while! When we get to Datong, we can show our strengths! I estimate that in the next year, the Jurchens will attack Datong! Yue Fei said.

"This is nature, Juyong Pass and Shanhaiguan are all dangerous places, and the Jurchens can't get through at all! They had no choice but to attack Datong or Yinzhou, Xiazhou and other places, trying to enter the Central Plains or Guanshan from there. Dong Xiandao.

"Let's go see Your Majesty first." Yue Fei said.

"Ahh Dong Xian's face showed a smile of surprise and said, "Are we going to see Your Majesty?" ”

"Your Majesty wants to inquire about the military situation, and we have to report it." Yue Fei said.

Dong Xian understood what was going on, and immediately nodded.

The army first went south, and after walking out of the mountains, they headed west, while Yue Fei and Dong Xian led hundreds of personal soldiers towards Yanjing City.

They walked all the way, and saw that in the villages and towns on the road, the people were in good order, and the people were not afraid to see the soldiers! As for the Khitans, there is no longer that arrogant and domineering expression on their faces! In the fields, although it is a cold winter, there are still many people there! As soon as the land was distributed to the people, many of the people were overjoyed to tending to the land in such weather.

"I still remember when Yan Yun was just laid down, Yan Yun was not like this at all, and there was chaos everywhere! It's still Your Majesty's clever means, just two months after coming to Yanyun, Yanyun's order is much better than before! Dong Xiandao.

"Your Majesty is a saint of the ages, and the means of governing the country are naturally extraordinary! Your Majesty wants to appease Yan Yun, this is just the beginning! Your Majesty also wrote to me a few days ago, telling me the latest decision, saying that in the future, the Propaganda Department will fully enter the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, and Wang Shu will mobilize young people here, whether it is Han or Khitan youth, will be mobilized to criticize the former Khitan emperors and let these young people support Your Majesty! Of course, mobilizing young people is not a waste of time! When Yanyun regains its prosperity, it is possible that those young people will also join the army! In addition, in the future, other policies will be implemented for the Khitans, such as guiding the Khitans to change their Han surnames as much as possible, letting the Khitans wear our Han clothes as much as possible, and the school will only teach us Han people's knowledge! In short, it is to make the Khitans completely become Han Chinese! In addition, it is necessary to resettle the sixteen states of Yanyun to completely stabilize here. Yue Fei said.

"Turn the Khitans into Han Chinese?" Dong Xian was a little stunned.

"Your Majesty said so, let them completely integrate among our Han people, and never separate each other again, so that they will never rebel! In the future, we will have to conquer many territories, and it is impossible to kill all the aliens, only those who do not obey our rule, and the rest will allow them to merge into our Han people. Yue Fei said.

Dong Xian seemed to understand and nodded.

Juyong Pass is not very far from Yanyun, they set off in the morning, and by the afternoon they had already arrived in Yanjing City.

Yanjing City has now restored order, and soldiers patrolling can be seen on the road, but the people are not afraid, and many shops have opened! This was originally the most prosperous place in the entire Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures, and now it is also full of people, although it is not as good as it used to be, but it is much better than under the rule of the Jurchens!

The two of them walked all the way through the outer city and the inner city, and finally came to the palace.

Here, the two of them dismounted, and all their personal soldiers waited outside, and the two of them entered the palace.

There is a deserted feeling in the palace, only occasionally you will see some soldiers, occasionally you will see some officials entering, and other than that, there are no palace maids here, and there is no sound of drumming, this is a pure office.

Dong Xian was shocked by the grand scale of the Yanjing Palace, while Yue Fei frowned.

"Brother Yue, is there anything wrong?" Dong Xian said strangely.

"There are some things that I want to report to Your Majesty!" Yue Fei said.

"What's the matter?" Dong Xiandao.

"I'll discuss these inconveniences with you." Yue Fei said.

Dong Xian was stunned for a moment, and he didn't say much at the moment.

They walked for a while, and finally came to the imperial study where Zhao Chen was.

After arriving here, I saw that Zhao Chen was discussing things with Yu Yunwen, Hu Quan and others, Zhao Chen quickly stopped and beckoned to Yue Fei and Dong Xian.

"Your Majesty!" Yue Fei was about to kneel, Zhao Chen had already come to him and held him up, Dong Xian kowtowed there, and then stood up.

"Brother Yue, you have been in Juyong Pass for so long, it is bitter cold there, and you have also suffered!" Zhao Chen said.

"The last general is a general, so naturally he should guard the frontier, how can he say that he suffers?" Yue Fei said.

Zhao Chen smiled slightly and said, "What is the situation of the Northern Jurchens now?" ”

He had already returned to his seat and sat down, Yue Fei and Dong Xian were still standing there, Yue Fei said: "Your Majesty, the Jurchens in Zhongjing are ready to move, we have fine work in Zhongjing, and it seems that the Jurchen Fourth Prince's Wushu is going south again!" ”

Zhao Chen nodded and said, "How many troops will they mobilize?" ”

Yue Fei said: "It should be around 100,000 people!" Your Majesty, the last general also found out that Yelu Yilie was actually in contact with the Jurchens! ”

Zhao Chen was stunned for a moment and said, "Did Yelu Yilie actually contact the Jurchens?" ”

Yue Fei said: "Not bad! Originally, the Jurchens destroyed the Liao Kingdom, and Yelu Dashi sent Yelu Yilie to cooperate with us to destroy Jin together! But after we conquered the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, they actually contacted the Jurchens, these Khitans who are like grass on the wall! ”

Zhao Chen said: "They are not grass on the wall, they saw that we are strong, so they changed their minds!" ”

Yue Fei nodded and said, "That's the truth." ”

Zhao Chen thought for a while and said, "This time you go to Datong, first train the army!" There were originally 100,000 Huanqing troops in Datong and Yanmen, but now they are all under your command! In addition to the 100,000 Huanqing army, the armies of Han Shizhong, Zhang Jun, Wang Yan and others went to Yinzhou and Xiazhou, and those armies are also under your jurisdiction, but those armies are not good at combat, so you need to train! When the time comes, try not to clash with Han Shizhong and the others! ”

Yue Fei nodded and agreed.

Zhao Chen said: "This year, the Central Plains and Yanyun have been defeated, the people are suffering, and in order to relieve the disaster, the consumption of money and food is very great, for this reason, I even cut some of the military rations, and when I get to Datong, the soldiers may have to suffer some crimes, you let the soldiers bear more." ”

Yue Fei said: "Your Majesty, rest assured, the soldiers are fighting, and that is also to recover the Central Plains, the Great Song Dynasty, and to defend the people!" The people are in trouble, and we should give up military rations! ”

Zhao Chen said: "If we wait until the situation in Yanyun and the Central Plains is completely stable, I will go to Datong in person, and let's send troops from Datong together to recruit the Jurchens!" ”

Yue Fei was overjoyed and said, "It's really good to be like this!" ”

Zhao Chen said with a smile: "You guys will go to the staff headquarters later, report the specific military situation, and then rest in Yanjing City for one night, and then leave Yanjing!" I still have to discuss important matters with Yu Aiqing and Hu Aiqing. ”

Yue Fei nodded, and was about to leave immediately, but after a while, he suddenly thought of something, knelt down suddenly, and said, "Your Majesty, Weichen has something to report!" ”

Zhao Chen saw his serious face and said, "What's the matter?" ”

Yue Fei said: "The last general came to this Yanjing Palace, and when he raised his eyes, there was no palace maid. ”

Zhao Chen said a little strangely: "Yes, there are indeed no palace maids here, what's wrong?" ”

Yue Fei said: "Your Majesty is not young, but he has no heirs, this matter is related to the Great Song Dynasty, and it must not be underestimated!" The last general thinks that His Majesty should recruit the harem and strive for the birth of a dragon son as soon as possible! Your Majesty is not a woman, this is a good thing, but it is just for the sake of the country, and there is not a single palace maid or concubine in the palace! ”

Zhao Chen couldn't cry or laugh, and said, "I know about this matter, you should step back first!" Wait for me to discuss things with Yu Aiqing, Hu Aiqing and others, and then I will have dinner with you in the evening! ”

Yue Fei said: "Your Majesty must remember this matter, don't dare or forget!" ”

Zhao Chen nodded.

When Yue Fei and Dong Xian left, Zhao Chen said, "Let's continue to discuss the affairs of Yanyun and officials from all over the Central Plains!" The imperial court can't be under military control all the time, there must be officials everywhere! Now the number of our officials is still too small! In addition, I have some ideas about the bureaucracy, and I would like to discuss it with you! ”
