Zhang Zhuo's barbarian wife is really right, Zhao Ji, the wasted emperor, is very popular on the grassland.

First subdued the Great White Gaoguo, then bulldozed the Kara Uighurs, and then beat the Seljuk Turks, not only before but also against the Khitans, the overlords of the steppe! Although the winner has not yet been decided, the battle situation is obviously favorable to the Great Song Dynasty. The Nanjing Road of the Great Liao Kingdom has been lost! Xijing Province also lost most of Fengshengzhou plus a Beihetao grassland (captured by Zhang Yuan), while Tokyo Province lost a Suzhou Anfu army and a vassal state of Goryeo.

It's just that some progress has been made in the east of the river in the Song Dynasty, and Taiyuan Province and several prefectures and counties have been taken. But the Liao lost much more land than it gained! Even a fool can see that the Khitans were defeated by the great Genghis Emperor. The final collapse is only a matter of time.

And the heroes of the steppe, including Hebule, including Mogus's son Huerzahusi, did not think that they had the ability to defeat the Khitan Emperor Yelu Yanxi, but Yelu Yanxi was defeated by Emperor Genghis, and he would be defeated.

Therefore, on the one hand, the heroes on the grassland are ready to move, and on the other hand, they also hope to be canonized by the Great Song Dynasty - Hebule, who thinks that he can't defeat the Khitans, now he doesn't dare to think about conquering the Central Plains, which is impossible and unthinkable. To be able to get the canonization of Emperor Genghis in the Central Plains, and then use the prestige of Emperor Genghis to expand the territory of the Menggu Department, Hebule will be satisfied.

If you can go one step further and turn the Menggu Tribal Alliance into a khanate, Hebul will be able to wake up with a smile in his dreams.

Therefore, for Zhang Zhuo's arrival, the Meng Gu Department gave the highest courtesy. He even agreed to send a few Tongtian Witches to follow Zhang Zhuo to Hexi to study Tianli Sect!

As for the matter of raising troops to correspond to the Great Song Dynasty and surrendering to Emperor Genghis, it is even more unbelievable to Bule Khan!

After all, Zhang Zhuo did not agree on the time to start the army with the Meng Gu Ministry, let alone stipulate how many troops Hebule would send and where to attack? There is no constraint on such cooperation. The canonization of Emperor Genghis can really strengthen the prestige of the Meng Gu Department. Once the Khitan collapses, the greater the prestige, the more small and medium-sized tribes can be recruited, and the Menggu Department can grow rapidly.

Therefore, Zhang Zhuo's mission by the River of Distress was unexpectedly smooth, not only bringing back a few Tongtian Witches in the spring of the second year, but also bringing back the messenger of Hebule, who was also Hebule's younger brother and child.

But contrary to the expectations of Hebule, Zhang Zuo and Zhang Yuan, on the same day that Zhang Zhuo arrived at the Menggu Department on the bank of the Difficult River to sit on the winter land. Wu Haogu's younger brother Wu Haowen, with the heaviest heart, is resigning from his majesty in the Chongzheng Palace of Qionglin Palace in Kaifeng Mansion, preparing to send an envoy to Daliao to do a great thing of loyalty and betrayal of the country!

Wu Haowen, who has read the book of sages, has never known only to be loyal to the monarch and patriotism, but now he finds that this monarch and the country sometimes become opposites!

For example, now, the opportunity to destroy Liao is in front of us. Youzhou, Hexi, Jurchen, and maybe Menggu and Kerebu, the five joined forces, and they didn't need a single soldier from the Great Song Dynasty to divide up the invincible Great Liao Kingdom.

After the Liao State was divided, most of the Jurchen, Menggu and Kereh tribes would also claim to the Great Song Dynasty and become vassals who guarded the northern border for the Great Song Dynasty.

What a wonderful thing! The territory of the Great Song Dynasty will far exceed that of the Han and Tang Dynasties, and the grassland desert will be subjugated to the feet of the Great Song Dynasty. Although there are several feudal towns in the Central Plains and a republican capital in Nanyang, the kings of a group of tribes in the north will not really come to the court every year and offer them every year.

But this is better than being bullied by the Khitan in the past, right? The feudal towns may not rebel, as long as the imperial court responds properly, they can still defend the borders of the country......

It's just that such advice is a bit inappropriate to come out of Wu Haowen's mouth!

"Your Majesty! The minister thought that it was very inappropriate to inform the Khitan about the collusion between the birth of the Nuzhen and Youzhou Town! ”

It was not Wu Haowen who raised objections loudly, but Lu Yihao, the deputy envoy to Liao this time.

"The minister thought that without the Jurchens and Youzhou raising troops to attack Liao, the Liao people would never withdraw their troops from Hedong at the cost of 10 million. If the Jurchen army fails because we reveal the news that the Jurchen and Youzhou jointly sent troops to attack Liao, then Hedong is only afraid that it will become another Youzhou and will be occupied by the Liao people for a long time......"

Lu Yihao's objection made Zhao Ji a little annoyed, and he didn't want to bother to explain, but asked Wu Haowen: "Wu Qing, what do you think?" ”

Of course, he supported Lu Yihao...... But only mentally!

"Your Majesty," Wu Haowen said, "the minister thinks that the Liao people know or do not know that the Jurchens and Youzhou are about to attack, and neither the Jurchens nor Youzhou will fail." Because the Youzhou army alone has never lost a battle to the Liao people on the battlefield (the Song Dynasty did not see the battle of Chenzhou as a defeat), and now there is one more Jurchen, how can the Liao people win? We informed the Liao people about the collusion between the birth of Jurchen and Youzhou, but it was only to gain their trust in order to redeem the lost land in Hedong. ”

Lu Yihao still didn't quite understand: "Since the Liao State will be defeated, why should we give out these 10 million?" Wouldn't it be good to wait for the Liao State to be over, and then send troops to recover the lost territory in Hedong? ”

Zhao Ji still looked at Wu Haowen, and Wu Haowen said: "This is Your Majesty's plan to drive away the tiger and fight the tiger." The Khitan is a tiger, and the Jurchen is also a tiger. Khitan Taizu Abaoji once suffered from the Jurchens, leaving behind the epigram of 'the Jurchens are not satisfied with 10,000, and they are invincible'. Now the Jurchens have long been full of 10,000 and already have invincible strength. Let the Khitans consume a little more Jurchen vitality, which will definitely be beneficial to my Great Song Dynasty. ”

"Lu Yihao, do you understand?" Zhao Ji looked at Lu Yihao and asked.

"The minister understands, Your Majesty Shengming."

"Now that you understand, let's do this errand with your heart." Zhao Ji waved his hand and asked Lu Yihao to retire first, leaving only Wu Haowen alone.

"Wu Qing, do you know what I'm doing this for?"

Wu Haowen smiled bitterly, "It must be for the sake of the minister's brother who became a thief." ”

Zhao Ji sighed: "Wu Haogu is not a rebel and thief now, he just has the possibility of becoming a rebel thief." However, the imperial court is powerless to eliminate the disaster, and all it can do is to maintain the Khitan in order to maintain the balance of all parties in the world. In this way, the rebellion of the five dynasties of the Tang Dynasty can be prevented from descending on the world again. ”

"Your Majesty," Wu Haowen worried, "in case, if it is really as the minister said, the Liao State cannot be saved, the Jurchen cannot be stopped, and the balance between the heroes of the world cannot be maintained, what should the imperial court do?" ”

Zhao Ji said: "Your brother Wu Hao has already thought of a way for me, which is to move south to Xiangyang!" Xiangyang is a good place, the benefit of the Han River, the danger of the Xian Mountain. Huaixi in the east, Guanlong in the west, Jianghan in the south can pass Jiangnan and Bashu. Huaixi heroes, Guanlong heroes, Jiangnan and Bashu's wealth, all into Xiangjing. Moreover, south of Xiangjing, there are more Wuchang and Jiangling, which have the danger of the heavy river and control the Quartet, which is actually a home for the imperial court to avoid trouble in order to raise again. ”

Building Xiangyang in advance as a way out is indeed an immortal move prepared by Wu Haogu for Zhao Ji. Xiangyang is a dangerous city, and now there is Pan Xiao'an working hard to build, once completed, except for the Wuhao Gu with the "truth", who can destroy it from all parties in the world?

Moreover, near Xiangyang, there are also two bases in Xiangyang that can obtain high-quality military resources. Guanzhong has produced elite soldiers since ancient times, while the Dabie Mountains in Huaixi are "poor and remote" elite soldiers. There is a Jianghan water system to absorb financial endowments from Jiangnan and Sichuan, and then hire strong men from Guanzhong and Huaixi. As long as efforts are made to make the country prosperous, the "Southern Song Dynasty" may not have no chance of recovering the Central Plains.

Even if you want to retreat, you can still use Xiangyang as a barrier and Jianghan as the line of defense to retreat to Wuchang and Jiangling. It is also the danger of Chongjiang, which is much stronger than the rich and prosperous gentle township of Lin'an. Not to mention anything else, Jinghu South Road behind Wuchang is also a place to produce elite soldiers! Daye, which is a stone's throw away from Wuchang, is also an important iron-smelting town that can provide sophisticated weapons.

"Really moving south?" Wu Haowen's heart twitched, once the Son of Heaven moved south, even if it moved to Xiangyang, not far from the Central Plains, it would cause the world to shake. North of the Huai River, I'm afraid it will be out of control!

"I don't want to move south...... Zhao Ji sighed, "That's why I asked you to go to Yelu Yanxi and tell him the news that the Jurchens were about to raise troops, if he can take precautions, maybe he can nip the chaos in the bud." ”

……

"What? Is this going to be a storm in the Northland? ”

"Not really! The official family has just sent Wu Erlang to Liao, and he doesn't know if he can be transferred? If you can't, hehe, the world is in chaos! ”

"Big brother, since the world is going to be chaotic, the foundation of Taipeng is the foundation of my family!"

"Can Taipeng really get started? That's a place of miasma! ”

In the west of Kaifeng Prefecture, in the mansion of Su Chi on the right side of Shangshu. Su Shi, who had just arrived in Kaifeng Mansion, was talking secretly with his brother Su Chi in the study.

Su Shi went north in the name of negotiating money. Qian Yin cannot only rely on the support of Kaifeng Prefecture, but also has the participation of several major commercial markets along the coast. Several large commercial markets not only have a thriving real estate industry, but also a huge flow of trade and self-operated purchases by the city's shipping companies, and of course, a huge amount of taxes and housing taxes. These are the foundations that can be used to support money attraction.

However, Su Shi didn't know much about financial issues and didn't have much interest. What he really cares about now is the foundation of the Su family in Taiwan and Peng.

Thanks to Wu Haogu's efforts, the development of Taiwan and Penghu has already begun. The number of hukou on the Penghu Islands has exceeded 500, which is enough to meet the minimum requirements of a lower county.

On the main island of Taiwan, a Lukang was also built, located on the seaside of Changhua County in later generations. Before the people of Wuhao Gu came to the island, this place was already a place where Fujian merchants, fishermen and the natives of Taiwan Island traded deer skins. Later, it was occupied by the Penghu Inspection Division under the Hailu City Shipping and Purchase Division. Wooden forts, ports, and commercial markets were built, and tens of thousands of acres of land were exchanged for iron pots, shochu and other items from the natives, and cultivated land. The population is 500 households, and there is a convoy of more than 200 wicked people. It's enough to set up a county.
