Zhao Gou promoted cultural unification, fundamentally solved the problem of war, mixed the Jurchens and Han people, and infected the Jurchens with the culture of the Han people. The Jurchens have their own writing, and Zhao Gou also ordered the students to study and master it, which can be regarded as a kind of inheritance.

Twenty years after Zhao Gou ascended the throne, the cultural unification he promoted really solved the problems of different cultures and customs of the people of the two countries, and the Jurchens completely integrated into the Song culture after 20 years, and Zhao Gou also ordered officials to go to the territory of the Jin Dynasty and completely take over.

The local people had their own culture and customs, and Zhao Gou respected and supported them, and ordered local officials not to interfere. In addition, Zhao Gou also sent a large army to guard the border passes, which further expanded the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, far better than the Great Song Dynasty during the period of Emperor Taizu, and even comparable to the land of the Tang Dynasty.

This is a later story, so I won't mention it for the time being!

After Zhao Yougong captured Huining Mansion, he handed over Wan Yansheng and others to Gao Chong and asked him to escort them into Beijing. The army remained in the territory of the Jin Dynasty, completely eliminating the scattered forces, and finally they were forced to enter Mongolia and leave the north, and Zhao Yougong did not continue the pursuit.

Then, Zhao Gou sent a decree ordering their class teachers to return to the court, and Zhao Yougong complied with the order.

A month later, Zhao Yougong led the army back to Bianjing, Zhao Gou personally opened the city gate to greet him, and the people welcomed him, which was also the highest courtesy of Zhao Yougong and other generals, and it was rarely seen since the founding of the country. Since then, the position of the generals has been truly consolidated, and with their strength, they broke through the Huining Mansion and destroyed the Jin Dynasty, which is really unprecedented.

"Where is the King of Chu!"

"The minister is here!"

"Since the king of Chu served as the marshal of the Northern Expedition, he has been conscientious and conscientious, and has repeatedly created miraculous feats, and the destruction of the Jin Dynasty is the first achievement, which is the luck of the Great Song Dynasty, the blessing of the people, and the jealousy of the enemy. The Great Song Dynasty has the king of Chu to guard, I am very pleased, and now I give the king of Chu a word side by side king, a hereditary title, a title of Taishi, the position of the right prime minister, and the head of the Privy Council. ”

"Thank you, Lord Long! Long live my emperor, long live, long live! ”

"Where is Marshal Yue?"

"The last general!"

"Marshal Yue is my senior brother, and I guess few of you Aiqing know about this matter. Thinking back to when I first learned art, those scenes still come back to my mind. After being proclaimed marshal, he led the army to overcome obstacles, made many military exploits, served the country loyally, and gave the king of Ru'e, the crown prince and the prince, and the official title of hussar general, commanding the army of Hebei East Road, and the four armies of Qianning, Yongjing, Baoding, and Xin'an were all under your jurisdiction. ”

"Thank you, Lord Ronne! Long live my emperor, long live, long live! ”

"Where is Marshal Zhang?"

"The last general!"

"Since the death of the old immortal, I have always been worried that there will be no successor to the seed army, but Marshal Zhang is brave and resolute, and his wit is unparalleled, and I am very pleased. Although there was resistance when the Jin Dynasty was destroyed, it was also caused by human factors, and Zhang Shuai was complained. Today, I have given you the title of King of Xun, the crown prince Taibao, the official title of general of Zhenyuan, the commander of the army of Qinfenglu, and the armies of Deshun, Zhenrong and Tongyuan are all under your jurisdiction. ”

"Thank you, Lord Ronne! Long live my emperor, long live, long live! ”

"Where is Marshal Han?"

"The last general!"

"Where is Mrs. Han?"

"The last general!"

Han Shizhong and his wife Liang Hongyu returned to Beijing together to confer the title, it was not the first time that the husband and wife had seen Zhao Gou, but Liang Hongyu was still a little embarrassed. After all, what Zhao Gou said to her at that time was still vivid and clearly visible.

"Except for the Empress Wu Zetian in the former Tang Dynasty, everyone in the world thinks that women are inferior to Lang, but Mrs. Liang is a woman who does not need to be eyebrows, goes into battle to kill the enemy, and resists the army of Jin soldiers with her husband Marshal Han, but I can sing and cry, and I am very pleased!" Zhao Gou said with a smile, "Today, I will enshrine you as the Lady of the Protector of the Country, and the official residence is a good product." If you can, you don't have to go out with your husband anymore, you can recuperate at home with peace of mind, and it is imperative to spread out for Marshal Han. ”

"Minister...... Thank you, Your Majesty! Long live my emperor, long live, long live! Don't look at Liang Hongyu going into battle to kill the enemy, she is still not afraid, but this matter is a private matter, but it was said by Zhao Gou, which made her face a little red, but she still did not reduce the momentum of going into battle to kill the enemy, Zhao Gou admired it very much.

"Marshal Han, you have really worked hard for the Great Song Dynasty. Not only did he go into battle to kill the enemy, but even his wife was together, and he was really a husband and wife, and his profits were broken! I know that you have experienced the pain of losing your child, but you still stick to your post, which is really admirable. ”

"Today, I have given you the title of King Qi, crowned the crown prince and the prince, and officially sealed the position of general of the Zhenguo State, commanding the soldiers of Linhuang Mansion and Huining Mansion in Shangjing, resisting Mongolia, and protecting the territory of my Great Song Dynasty, I have entrusted this important task to Marshal Han!"

"The last general Xie Huang Longen, long live my emperor, long live, long live!" After Han Shizhong received the order to thank him, he said solemnly: "The last general will never live up to the emperor's trust, and he will not give up!" ”

"Where is Marshal Liu Guangshi?"

"The last general!"

"Marshal Liu and Marshal Han are old acquaintances, and I know all the merits of Marshal Liu over the years. Since Marshal Han guarded the army of Sanjing and resisted the Mongols. Then I will entrust Tokyo and Zhongjing to you, I wonder if Marshal Liu can agree? ”

"The last general will obey!" How did Liu Guangshi not know what Zhao Gou meant, he entrusted the task of resisting Goryeo to him, even if there was no reward, these were enough.

"Good!" Zhao Gou praised and said: "Marshal Liu is really brave, I gave the king of Ru Dun, crowned the Taifu, and officially conferred the post of general of the Zhu Kingdom, and the armies of Tokyo and Zhongjing will be entrusted to you. ”

"The last will obey!"

"Where is General Yang?"

"The last general!"

"You are the descendant of the Yang family, and you are also the founder of the country, you were born in the gate, but you have never received the grace of your ancestors, and you have set up your own door and made meritorious contributions, I am very pleased. You and Marshal Yue and others are the same people who participated in the martial arts examination, I gave you the title of king of peace, crowned the crown prince and the prince, and the official title of general of Anxi, and guarded the Chengdu Mansion, and the two armies of Huai'an and Guang'an were commanded by you. ”

"The last general, thank you, Lord Longen! Long live my emperor, long live, long live! ”

"Where is General Wu Lan?"

"The last general!"

"Where is General Wu Jue?"

"The last general!"

"General Wu Luan Ru Ben resisted the Western Xia army in Yan'an Mansion, followed his brother to hold Monk Yuan, Rao Feng Pass, Xianren Pass and other places, repeatedly defeated the Western Xia and Jin coalition forces, and made great contributions to the defense of Qin Long and the barrier Bashu. In addition, he and Brother Ling led 5,000 elite soldiers to cross the sea into the hinterland of Liaoyang Mansion, and joined forces with the army to break through Liaoyang Mansion. ”

Zhao Gou continued: "General Wu Lu gave you the title of King of Xin, and the official title was the envoy of the national army and the general of Fuyuan, guarding the southern part of the Great Song Dynasty, and the army of Guangnan East Road was commanded by you; General Wu Jue gave you the title of King Fu to guard the southwest of the Great Song Dynasty, and the army of Guangnan West Road was commanded by you. ”

"Thank you, Lord Ronne! Long live my emperor, long live, long live! ”

"Where is General Liu Qi?"

"The last general!"

"General Liu has followed me for many years, and when I was still a general and the king of Yan, he was brave and good at fighting, and made many meritorious deeds. I also sent you to resist the Western Xia army, and the two generals Wu Lan and Wu Jue protected the safety of the people of the Great Song and Shu Lands, and I was very relieved! ”

Zhao Gou praised loudly: "Give you the title of King of Wu, add the crown prince Taibao, the official title of General Tiance, guard the Zhending Mansion, and the four armies of Ansu, Yongning, Guangxin, and Shun'an on the West Road of Hebei are all commanded by you." ”

"Thank you, Lord Ronne! Long live my emperor, long live, long live! ”

"Where's the pet?"

"The minister is here!"

"I know that you want to enter the battlefield to kill the enemy, and I have always let you stay by my side and become the commander of the forbidden army, in charge of an army of 100,000 people, and I have indeed wronged you all these years. Today, I have given you the title of Protector of the Country, a member of the official residence, and I have given your mother the title of Lady of Qin, and Ling Zun posthumously named the Duke of Qin, in recognition of your contribution to the Song Dynasty! ”

When it comes to Gao Chong, Zhao Gou is indeed ashamed, if it weren't for the fact that there was no one around him, and he wouldn't have let the dignified general's talented Gao Chong stay in the capital and serve as the commander of the forbidden army, he also knew that Gao Chong was a little distressed in his heart, and finally continued: "In addition, I have allowed you to go to defend wherever there is a war in the future, you can go and defend it, are you satisfied?" ”

"Thank you, Lord Longne!" Gao Gou was grateful, what he wanted was to go into battle to kill the enemy, but Zhao Gou was reluctant to let him go, in fact, Zhao Gou knew that Gao Gou would die if he really went to the battlefield, and the Gao family would have no successor, so he couldn't bear it.

As a result, Zhao Gou would rather let Gao Zhong stay by his side than lose the general of the commanding side. In fact, the deep meaning is to hand over the position of generalissimo of the world's soldiers and horses to Gao Favor, and he will command the army to guard the border pass of the Great Song Dynasty. Everyone knew it, and no one objected.

If it is about merit, Gao Zhong is not weaker than any of the nine kings; In terms of martial arts, in addition to Zhao Gou, even Zhao Yougong is not necessarily his opponent, but Gao Gou is a loyal and filial person, his mother is still alive, and he followed his mother's advice to stay by Zhao Gou's side to guard, in fact, the health of these old ladies is getting worse, and Gao Pet has no intention of going to the front line, so he is willing to go as a last resort.

If the old lady dies and Gao Zhong has descendants, then Zhao Gou is naturally willing to let go. When the 100,000 forbidden troops led by Gao Zhong in the court were guarded, no one dared to move, and he also learned a lot of tactics and strategies over the years, and even Zhao Gou taught what he had learned, which made Gao Zhong grateful.

When Zhao Gou ascended the throne for six years, Xing Bingyi gave birth to a pair of twin boys, which made the government and the opposition very happy, but Zhao Gou cried and mourned, and he didn't know what to do with these two little guys. Besides, at that time, his mind was on studying the cannon, or he was thinking about how to destroy the gold, and he had no time to go to visit the two children, and the ministers of the court and the central government played one after another to let Zhao Gou set up the prince, but Zhao Gou was unwilling to do so, and refused because the child was young and ignorant, and it was that year that he was highly favored and married, and completed the things that the old lady explained, and gave birth to a son the following year, and the old lady somehow got better, which made the imperial doctor feel a little surprised and didn't understand what was going on.

Now the momentum of the Great Song Dynasty is like a rainbow, the country and the people are safe, and there are nine princes divided by Zhao Gou, and other meritorious generals are also canonized one by one official positions and titles, except for Zhao Yougong, the king of Chu, who is a royal relative, the other eight people are all crowned kings with different surnames. Although it is not a precedent for the Great Song Dynasty, it is really uncommon to divide eight princes with different surnames at the same time.

In later generations, this matter was recorded in the history books, saying: "The nine kings are crowned, and the world is determined; The number of ninety-nine, the destiny of heaven! ”
