Chapter Seventy-Three: Look Outward, Great Song

In fact, the Jinghu system made Lu Wende sigh unnecessarily, in addition to vigorously guarding against military generals, the political tradition of the Great Song Dynasty did not forget to put a halter on Wenchen. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

The Great Song Dynasty used the techniques of "separation of powers" and "checks and balances" to eliminate the possibility of Wenchen posing a threat to the imperial power in the system.

The power of the prime minister was divided into several parts, with military power being handed over to the Privy Council and part of the executive power being given to the "Governor of the Council", that is, the deputy prime minister.

At the same time, "three departments" were set up to manage finances, and the prime minister's financial power was divided.

At the local level, the secret of "separation of powers" and "checks and balances" was also widely practiced, stipulating that local officials should be sent by the central government for a term of office of only three years.

In order to prevent the top leaders from acting arbitrarily and arbitrarily, they also set up deputies called Tong Ju for the governors of various localities to supervise the governors, and at the same time sent envoys to various localities to manage the finances and abolish the power of the local governments to deal with finances.

Although the price was to form a "redundant official" pattern that was difficult to cure in the Great Song Dynasty, the Great Song Dynasty finally ruled out all possibilities for the resurgence of the powerful aristocratic class, and there would be no feudal officials and political masters who could confront the central government.

The officials of the Great Song Dynasty monopolized all the powers of the military, government, and finance, and reached the realm of "a hundred years of worries and troubles of one dynasty are all taken care of by the superiors, and the ministers do not cooperate".

Like the military attachés, due to the military pressure of the Tatar bandit group, the prime minister of the Great Song Dynasty also reached the dictatorship of the prime minister that had never been seen in the history of the Great Song Dynasty.

As mentioned above, Pingzhang Jia Rudao, who was called "Shichen" by the officials of the Great Song Dynasty, was like this, due to the needs of the war, he was the prime minister on the one hand, and the privy envoy of the Privy Council on the other hand, and at the same time managed the treasury, and even the inner treasury of the Great Song Dynasty officials also had the ability to exert influence, and the military power, human rights, and financial power were grasped, and the influence of the deputy to participate in the governor's affairs was reduced to the lowest point.

What a cool power allocation for a politician!

He took advantage of the military pressure of the Tatar bandit group to fight against dissidents; and by the power of the island of Liuqiu, he forced the Tatar bandit group to make peace; Taking advantage of the psychology of the people of the Great Song Dynasty who did not like war, it was easy to unify the thinking of the students in the Tai Academy.

Under the guidance of "Minsheng Daily", the public opinion of the entire Great Song Dynasty is full of positive energy and praise.

What beautiful political means these are!

However, with the lifting of military pressure, the political traditional power of the Great Song Dynasty began to return, even if Pingzhang Jia seemed to be strong on weekdays, he was unable to be an enemy of all the civil ministers------ he had to hand over the position of privy envoy, and then returned power to the governor of the political affairs ------ to his important ally, the suppression of Lu Wende, the envoy of the Jinghu system, began in this context.

To tell the truth, the basic political design of the Song Dynasty greatly changed the character of the Han people.

For the first time in history, the Han people no longer take pride in their meritorious service.

The popular folk saying in the Song Dynasty was: "Don't be a soldier, don't be an iron, don't be a nail".

In the Song Dynasty, no matter how much merit the generals made, it was difficult for them to have the same scenery as Wenchen.

Some people say that even if he leads hundreds of thousands of troops to recover the sixteen states of Youji, he can't catch up with the glory of a champion and the first time.

The men of the Song Dynasty began to lose their martial spirit, and they indulged in the books on their desks, sending the streamer away in the shallow chanting and singing day after day.

Their physique is getting worse and worse, and their personalities are becoming more and more delicate.

Therefore, if a wise man thinks a thousand times, he will make a mistake.

The Great Song Dynasty ensured the political security of the Zhao family through the civility of the whole nation, but caused the entire nation to lose its security.

Although the material strength of the Song Dynasty was far above that of the "Four Yi", the lack of combat effectiveness of the army and the overly decentralized bureaucratic system made the Song Dynasty weak for hundreds of years.

Perhaps it was precisely because of this that the Great Song Dynasty began to move towards Yashan step by step.

the establishment of a dynasty, which may have been done by chance; But the destruction of a dynasty requires a system of engineering, and many reasons work together.

Of course, as far as the current Great Song people are concerned, none of them will realize where the real roots are, and they may not even think of a minor problem.

However, Zhang Guoan, the owner of the island, who was far away, was closely concerned about the changes in the political scene of the Great Song Dynasty.

Not to mention anything else, Zhang Guoan, the owner of the island, carefully reads the official newspaper of the Great Song Dynasty "Di Bao" every time.

As mentioned above, Di Bao is a medium for disseminating political information within the Great Song Dynasty government, which is edited and published by the Jinju Academy, and belongs to government documents or political newspapers, which have the attributes and functions of current political news newspapers in a certain sense or to a certain extent, and are mainly read by officials and relevant personnel at all levels, aiming to understand and understand the country's political situation and political dynamics.

The folk newspapers of the Great Song Dynasty often reprinted the contents on it, but Zhang Guoan, the owner of the island, still obtained the original version of the "Di Bao" through special channels, and he was afraid that the newspapers he reprinted would have various tendencies.

For example, the "Minsheng Daily" has a strong tendency, and has been publicizing the work achievements of Pingzhang Jia Yidao, implying that the centralization of power by the prime minister is conducive to the management of the state------ and their reprinting will inevitably be targeted.

Zhang Guoan, the island owner, scolded in his heart, just after two good days, Da Song began to toss again.

What is the struggle between civil officials and military attachés, it is a struggle for personal power!

However, he could not interfere in the internal affairs of the Great Song Dynasty, and could not even evaluate their actions in the "Liuqiu Weekly".

There was a fierce internal struggle within the Great Song Dynasty, ostensibly between the civil and military factions, but in fact, the root was that a considerable number of civil officials were dissatisfied with the dictatorship of Pingzhang Jia Nidao and demanded a reshuffle.

At this juncture, Zhang Guoan, the owner of the island, did not want to let Liuqiu Island get involved in their political internal conflict.

The "Liuqiu Weekly" began to report on the military operations of the Tatar bandit group in a large way, and the owner of Zhang Guoan had to guide the eyes of the Great Song Dynasty to the outside world.

The military operations of the Tatar bandit group at this stage did indeed make the island owner Zhang Guoan a little incomprehensible, under the leadership of the big leader Kublai Khan, they suddenly attacked the Ögedai Khanate for a long time, and the traditional allies of the Ögedai Khanate were all immovable!

More than two months had passed since the news of the big boss Kublai Khan's annihilation of his brother country reached the island lord Zhang Guoan.

In this time and space, every country values meticulous behavior, and all of them arrange spy personnel to each other's country.

Although the island of Liuqiu developed relatively late, they also installed their own fine work in the land ruled by the so-called Tatar bandit group, and even into the territory of the four khanates.

As for the places where they can reach and can also conduct trade, they have arranged personnel to send back news on a regular basis.

Comparatively speaking, the news of the northern continent of the Ilkhanate and the Great Song Dynasty was relatively fast, after all, there was a sea route to pass.

The Kipchak Khanate, the Chagatai Khanate, and the Ögedai Khanate were either very far away, or they were deep inland, and the transmission of news was very difficult and long, and it was possible to transmit it back once a year.

Zhang Guoan, the island lord, frowned and looked at the general map, he couldn't understand how the big boss Kublai Khan could suddenly give up attacking his Shandong Peninsula, ignore the Great Song Dynasty, and go to the north to toss?!

Coupled with the previous act of forcibly relocating coastal people to live inland, are the Tatar bandit groups ready to abandon the Central Plains?!

It's a pity that the entire Great Song Dynasty is now starting to follow the old path again, and no one cares about the outside world.

Zhang Guoan, the owner of the island, asked Yang Youxing to write more about what the Tatar bandit group did, hoping to guide the eyes of the entire Great Song Dynasty and look outside, my Great Song Dynasty!

However, he actually really underestimated the level of the Great Song ------ (to be continued.) )
