Chapter 1070: Engineers and Followers
Zhao Ji swore that for the first time, he felt that his father was very good, at least much stronger than that master, and compared to the palace, it was simply dire and the tiger and wolf looked around...... Yes, there are no tigers and wolves, but there are bears!
Sitting there and gnawing on turnips, many people will feel cute, but Zhao Ji, he is so afraid that his hairs stand up. The sound of this guy biting a radish is like biting a bone, crunchy!
Zhao Ji even thought that this guy would pounce on him at any time and eat him, just like a radish! Fortunately, Rolling doesn't know how to read minds, otherwise knowing that Zhao Ji sees it like this, he will definitely die of laughter.
The Xiong family is a good baby, never eats raw meat, although the Xiong family has sharp teeth and claws, but you can eat enough by selling cuteness, why bother!
As for those two dogs, they were purely looking for death!
You must know that when I was a child, when Rolling was still a small group, how much shadow the dog caused, the Xiong family just took revenge, just right!
Don't worry, the Xiong family will just eat radishes obediently in the future......
Zhao Ji didn't know this, he desperately wanted to leave this ghost place.
The little guy cheered up twelve points of spirit, and actually sounded milky, and really carried it.
"The cold rain and the river enter Wu at night, and Pingming sends off the guest Chushan Lonely. Luoyang relatives and friends asked each other, and a piece of ice was in the jade pot. ”
The more Zhao Shu listened, the happier he became, he simply smiled, and when the 4 sentences were over, he hurriedly asked, "What about the back?" ”
Zhao Ji blinked his eyes and tried to think, "Danyang - Chengnan - Qiuhaiyin, Danyang City - Cheng......" The little guy couldn't carry it, and he was so anxious that tears came out.
Zhao Shu didn't mean to blame, there are two songs in "Furong Lou Sending Xin Gradually", in comparison, the first one is more widely circulated, he cleared his throat and continued to read: "...... The north of Danyang City is deep in Chu Yunshen. High-rise send-offs can't be drunk, lonely and cold Jiang Mingyue heart. ”
After reading the poem, Zhao Shu sighed even more: "Emperor, this poem is very interesting, the cold rain at night falls on Wu Land, and the next day the guest is sent off to look at Chu Mountain, there are two countries, Wu and Chu, all of which are one of the Spring and Autumn Kingdoms, and they are also strong for a while...... Wang Changling is to see off the guests at the place where Wu and Chu divide, there is a Guancheng, called Zhaoguan, under the current rule of Runzhou, there is also a play, about the Spring and Autumn Period, there is a person named Wu Zixu, in order to pass the Zhaoguan from Chu to Wu, and his head turned white overnight......"
Zhao Shu said softly...... He remembered his father Zhao Zhen, when he was not even ten years old, not much older than Zhao Zhen, so his father pulled himself and told a story from a poem to the rise and fall of a dynasty, which was kind and interesting to listen to, and reasonable...... For a while, Zhao Shu liked to take the history of his father's lecture very much, ask the master, and then use what the master said, and ask his father instead.
The two people talk about things in completely different routines, Zhao Shu was confused at first, but the more he understands, he also understands that there is no complete right or wrong in this world, just looking at the problem from different angles......
"Emperor, it doesn't matter how much others can teach you, what matters is how much you can learn...... When my father destroys Tianzhu this time, I will take you to Runzhou, to the south of the Yangtze River to see, and we will also go to Furong Tower, climb high and look into the distance...... In the past, Wu and Chu were both the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, and there were many more countries that would also be included in the territory of the Great Song Dynasty...... Father will give you a big world, do you say it's good? ”
Zhao Shu didn't care what the little guy thought, just when he acquiesced, he happily left the palace and embarked on the journey...... In fact, in the heart of the little Zhao Ji, what Wu Chu, what the world, it is better to leave the reality of Longtan Tiger's Den, how can you live this day?
……
Not to mention Zhao Shu's entanglement, Zhao Shu is high-spirited.
He didn't bring too many men and horses, only 25,000 men, starting from Xijing, passing through the railway, all the way to the Western Regions, in the Seljuk homeland, Wen Jifu was ready.
200,000 people were gathered, 500,000 stones of grain were hoarded, 300,000 mules and horses, and a large number of military weapons were transferred from the Great Song Dynasty.
It is worth mentioning that counting forward 1,000 years, and 500 years back, the Central Asian plains are the battlefield of the decisive battle of the nomads, and once defeated, they will flee south into India and wreak havoc.
Once defeated, they will also enter India and rob again.
All in all, India is a 10,000-year-old pitiful, anyone can toss, and India is not angry, it doesn't even have the ability to repair cities, and whoever comes will kneel.
Anyway, they all think that it doesn't matter if you bully me in this life, and when Lao Tzu is developed in the next life, they will bully you. So, it's clear who the real Ah Q is.
The various tribes of the Seljuks knew India better than the Great Song Dynasty, so when the Great Song was about to start a war, these guys were like sharks that smelled blood.
There is no need for the Great Song Dynasty to pay money, nor does it need to be mobilized by the Great Song Dynasty, all of them prepare their own dry food, hold scimitars, step on the war horses, and prepare to follow the army and make a windfall.
For these people, Zhao Shu has nothing to reject.
After all, Tianzhu is too big, and there are too many people, just relying on the Great Song Dynasty to fight a little bit, when do you want to fight, just put everyone in, and there will be a big chaos in the world, so as not to be chaotic!
Zhao Shu decisively issued an edict that anyone who could pull up 500 men and horses to march into Tianzhu was awarded the position of commander, 1,000 people were given the command system, and 2,000 people were all under control...... After conquering India, they can also divide the land slaves according to the size of the merit.
And by virtue of his military exploits, he can also obtain the arms support of the Great Song Dynasty and master trade privileges......
This set of techniques has been played by Wang Ning'an, but in this strange land, it is still very novel.
The tribes were inspired and fascinated with joy...... They praised Zhao Shu as the wisest emperor, the king of kings, the ruler of the world, and the sun in the sky...... In short, it's all some meaty touting.
In this way, Zhao Shu got 100,000 advance troops in a short period of time, followed the mountain pass, and went south to the plain...... Almost at the same time, the merchants of the Great Song Dynasty also launched an attack from the coastline.
The Great Song Dynasty had begun to gradually abolish slavery, whether true or not, but those slave-dominated factories and plantations were in a hurry, and they offered three times the price they used to pay for slaves.
The merchant calculated that the cost of capturing slaves from Tianzhu and transporting them to Quanzhou was 30 yuan at most, and a young slave could be sold for 200 yuan, and as for the female slaves who were ingenious and could raise silkworms and reel silk and weave cloth, there were also 180 yuan.
The crazy profits have driven the businessmen all crazy.
They urgently need a concession for the slave trade, and if they want to get the concession, they must behave well, cooperate with His Majesty the Emperor, and conquer Tianzhu!
It was a conquest on an unprecedented scale.
Zhao Shu only dispatched 25,000 people, but the number of people who followed him exceeded 200,000, and what is more interesting is that some Tianzhu families also took refuge in the Great Song Emperor.
There are more and more people in the whole body, like a snowball, and in the end, it is simply an avalanche!
Thousands of years of Tianzhu society was completely destroyed, this chaotic war, so that Tianzhu lost more than 30% of the population, and more people were sold into slavery.
The flesh and blood of these people and the wealth of Tianzhu nourished the industrial system of the Great Song Dynasty.
In the next 20 years, the Great Song Dynasty basically completed the construction of the railway network, and more importantly, some scientists discovered electricity, developed the internal combustion engine, and the second round of industrial revolution was rapidly promoted in the Central Plains......
Of course, these are still later words, compared with the emperor who is keen on expanding the territory, the ministers are more concerned about the political hall battle next year, and who can become the prime minister in the end has attracted much attention.
Although there is not much information revealed in the imperial court, some clues can also be glimpsed from some clues.
For example, Wang Ningan returned to Beijing again and was responsible for teaching the prince, and the Pingzhang affairs in Liaodong Province that he left behind were particularly eye-catching.
The current Liaodong Province is very eye-catching.
First of all, the area of Liaodong Province is large enough, including not only the original Youzhou and Yunzhou, but also more than half of the Khitan land, which can extend to the Arctic Ocean to the north......
In the past, people thought that this was a bitter cold place, with no oil or water.
But since most of the railway was built, iron mines and coal mines in eastern Liaodong have been discovered one after another, and there are so many timber, vast black soil, just planting crops, and moreover, someone has discovered gold mines, and thousands of people have gone north with the dream of panning for gold.
All kinds of conditions add up, Liaodong Province is already a hot sweet, who can take over Pingzhangshi, there is definitely a chance to enter the political hall and the six departments in the future.
For this position, all sides are sabre-rattling.
On the side of the ministry, Zhang Dian insisted on pushing the political envoy Cai Jing.
"Although Cai Jing is young and has little qualifications, he has been in Liaodong for many years, and he has worked all the way up from an ordinary scribe, with outstanding political achievements, which are obvious to all, so it is natural for him to serve as a Pingzhang matter!"
"This ......," Dali Temple Qing Feng Jing spoke.
"Zhang Tianguan, it stands to reason that the Ministry of Officials should not say anything about the candidates, but I think this Cai Jing is not suitable."
"What's the point?" Zhang Duan raised his voice, visibly displeased.
Feng Jing was not afraid, but said in a deep voice: "It's very simple, he is not from a Jinshi!" ”
"This, what kind of reason is this!" Zhang Dian said angrily: "Now that the imperial court has opened the Xiucai Section, most of the local officials are from the Xiucai Section, and Cai Jing is not only from the Xiucai Section, but also the first batch of people to get engineers...... There is absolutely no problem with his knowledge! ”
At this time, Jia Zhang smiled and said: "Zhang Tianguan, take a look, now in the court, is there a person from Xiucai?" ”
"Just because you don't have it now doesn't mean you can't have it in the future! Xiucai has only been open for a few years, how can anyone enter the slaughter? But I firmly believe that sooner or later, one day, there will be talents from Xiucaike who will enter the six departments and even the political affairs hall! Zhang's voice was loud.
"Then according to Zhang Tianguan's meaning, can Jinshike be abolished?" Feng Jing asked angrily.
Zhang Dian smiled contemptuously, "Waste or not, that's a matter of saints, but to put it mildly, the imperial examination only started in the Sui and Tang dynasties, and there have been many changes in the middle. ”
His gaze swept over, and several people, such as Zeng Bu and Su Zhe, all agreed, bowing slightly. Only Sima Guang coughed.
"Since it's a recommended candidate, you can't designate a person, you have to see if everyone is better!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Feng Jing immediately said: "I recommend Master Lu Zhilu, he is much more suitable than Cai Jing!" ”
