Chapter 33: The Arabian Horse
The policy of abolishing the agricultural tax made Ming Jian suffer from the accusations of scholars, and the students of Tai Academy even rushed to the Wude Hall to demonstrate again, demanding that Ming Jian take back his life.
Last time, he asked Song Qinzong to deal with the six traitorous ministers, but this time, it was for another purpose.
However, this time, the guards outside the Wude Hall will not let the students enter the Wude Hall easily, Zhao Yun led the guards, and the crossbows were all set up well, whoever dared to attack the Wude Hall would definitely be a dead end.
The students of Tai Academy made a fuss for three days, but Ming Jian did not react at all, and did not come out to meet them.
The era of the hegemony of the reader is coming to an end, and of course, the reader here refers to those who read the dead book.
What Ming Jian wants is for a hundred flowers to bloom and a hundred schools of thought to contend, not for these students who read poetry and scriptures, just them, it is strange that they can govern the Great Song Dynasty well.
These days, Ming Jian handed over the government to Li Ruoshui and Zong Ze to deal with, he was relieved to recuperate in the backyard, after hanging injections and anti-inflammatory drugs, Ming Jian's injuries recovered quickly, and he could already walk slowly in the backyard without help.
Li Ruoshui and Zong Ze are in charge of the affairs of the imperial court, and the two of them complement each other with one article and one martial arts.
The main thing is still a military issue, and when the north thaws, the Jin soldiers will go south again, so how to defend has become the focus of the two people's considerations.
According to the instructions given by Ming Jian last time, that is, to lure the Jin soldiers to the city of Bianjing again, and then annihilate them in one fell swoop, Li Ruoshui and Zong Ze were thinking about how to do it.
The Jin soldiers went south, one was through the river ~ north, the other was through the mountains ~ west, these two roads could go directly to Bianjing City, these two places have been occupied by the Jin soldiers, and their men and horses can rush through the Yellow River defense line in a short period of time.
The deployment of the Song army is not easy, relying on the Yellow River defense line alone, it will not work at all, and when the time comes, it is likely to be hunted by the Jin soldiers.
If there are enough cavalry, it will be easy to do.
On this day, Li Ruoshui came to Mingjian to discuss and told Mingjian his worries.
Ming Jian secretly thought that on the space-time trading platform, the seller named Zhuang Bi should be able to think of it, right?
He secretly called up the space-time trading platform and began to leave a message to Zhuang Pen, asking for the purchase of military horses, and the number was huge.
After a while, Zhuang Bi replied to Ming Jian.
"There is no problem with military horses, Arabian horses are available. The price is 1,000 taels of silver per horse, and there is no credit. ”
Ming Jian secretly thought that he hadn't just sold the palace? This money can be put to use.
He replied that there was no problem, and asked Zhuang Bi to wait for his news.
Turning around, Ming Jian instructed Li Ruoshui again: "Li Aiqing, don't worry, I will give you a batch of war horses." ”
After Li Ruoshui retreated, Ming Jian immediately went to the inner library, and in a flash of thought, he made up the difference of 10 million taels of silver and deposited all some silver taels into the system.
Name: Huan Zhao
Intelligence: 73
Force: 5
Charisma: 680
Wealth: 10,000,000 taels
Seeing the data, Ming Jian was very surprised, his strength was only 5, and it seemed that his injury had a great impact on his force.
The entry of silver shows that the current world and system are completely universal silver, which is hard currency, and is common to both the real and virtual worlds.
With the silver, Ming Jian immediately launched a transaction application to Zhuang Pen, asking for 10,000 military horses.
Ten million taels of silver flew out at once, and 10,000 Arab military horses were all in place.
"That's handsome! Being rich is human nature! There are so many good military horses, it's mine! ”
When he came to the military horse farm, Ming Jian released all these military horses, and the tall military horses looked very majestic, and they were indeed Arabian horses.
Ming Jian then called Yue Fei and asked him to select military horses and form cavalry.
When Yue Fei saw it, he immediately couldn't put it down.
"Official, where did such a horse come from? It doesn't look like a military horse from our Great Song Dynasty! Yue Fei asked.
Ming Jian said with a smile: "This is given by Taizu, you are responsible for forming a powerful cavalry, with such soldiers and horses, why worry about big things?" ”
Yue Fei said: "Please rest assured, the minister will definitely form the most powerful cavalry in the world!" ”
Indeed, with such a military horse, Yue Fei must be confident, the Great Song Dynasty just does not produce military horses, so it will be brutally abused by the Jin soldiers, with cavalry, with a strong military theory, why not defeat the Jin soldiers?
After screening, a Great Song cavalry was quickly formed, this cavalry numbering 10,000 people, all armed with powerful Arab horses, and the weapons were all crossbows.
This is where Ming Jian has purchased a large number of crossbows from Zhuang Pen.
Although the cost is huge, but with such powerful weapons and equipment, can Jin Bing still fly into the sky? When the time comes, the Jin soldiers will be beaten up for a while, and then lured to Bianjing City to come down, why can't you finish the battle?
The cavalry is gradually finished, and it is also the time of the New Year, this year is a disaster year, and the Great Song Dynasty suffered a serious military disaster, so Ming Jian ordered everyone to be frugal for the New Year.
The royal New Year was very simple, everyone got together, had a simple meal, and went back to their respective homes.
Early the next morning, Ming Jian announced that he had changed the name of the year, and Jingkang's shame was always a sword hanging over his head.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I have decided to change the era name to a local tyrant, what do you think?" Ming Jian's taking this era name is completely a spoof, think about [In the first year of the Great Song Dynasty, the Son of Heaven led the army to break the Jin soldiers in Bianjing, Yunyun], how good is this news in history?
"What the official said is very reasonable, our Great Song Dynasty should be a local tyrant!"
"The Year of the Tyrant? Not bad! ”
"We are all local tyrants! Haha, the golden soldiers are all turtles! ”
......
The year was set, and on the first day of the Spring Festival, Li Gang also rushed to Bianjing.
Ming Jian immediately met Li Gang in the Wude Palace, and when he saw this middle-aged man with gray hair, Ming Jian sighed with emotion.
"No need to be polite, teacher!" Seeing Li Gang kneeling, Ming Jian walked up in a few arrow steps, supported Li Gang, and said.
Li Gang hurriedly said: "How can this be made?" ”
"Heaven and earth are the prince's teacher, the teacher is also respected by all people, although I am the son of heaven, I also dare not accept the teacher's kneeling." Ming Jian hurriedly said, and then changed the topic and said: "The teacher is here, and I can show my strength." ”
Li Gang smiled: "I don't know what other heavy punches the official family has?" ”
Since Ming Jian returned to Bianjing, he has shocked the world with three major events: the edict of guilt, the abolition of agricultural taxes, and the righteous interpretation of Zhao Gou.
Therefore, Li Gang asked again.
Ming Jian said with a smile: "The teacher really knows my thoughts, and now if you want the Great Song Dynasty to get rid of the situation of being suppressed by foreigners, you must not only develop economically, but also keep up militarily." The abolition of the agricultural tax is to completely win the hearts of the peasants in the world, and it will naturally be much easier to recruit troops when the time comes. And in the next aspect, I plan to rectify education, with our current educational thinking, what we teach are some officials who are unbearable, so I plan to let teachers preside over the education of the Great Song Dynasty and cultivate talents for the Great Song Dynasty! ”
When Li Gang heard this, he was immediately overjoyed and said: "The minister is willing to do his best and die for the education of the Great Song Dynasty!" ”
"Teacher, the current system is not good, just reading the Four Books and the Five Classics is not enough, and the principles of governing the country cannot be learned from books. So, teacher, you have to think of ways so that students can learn more knowledge that can be used in practice, and I have drafted some outlines these days, you can take a look. After Ming Jian finished speaking, he handed Li Gang a book of education outlines he had written.
Li Gang took it and was taken aback.
This set of things is all brought by Ming Jian from reality, including knowledge of mathematics, physics and chemistry, which Li Gang has no way to understand thoroughly.
"Official, what kind of knowledge is this? Why have you never heard of it? Li Gang hurriedly asked.
"This is what Taizu taught in his dream, and the implementation of this set will make students have a strong desire for knowledge about all things in the world, so as to learn a lot of knowledge about governing the world and saving the people." Ming Jian said.
This set of knowledge is completely deviant from the current education, Ming Jian won't tell you about etiquette and morality, Jin Ren? Do the Liao people talk about it? Do the Tangut people talk about it?
If you want to fight with these dynasties that have been oppressing the Han people in the Central Plains, you must learn strong theoretical knowledge, and when the time comes, you must learn to make guns and cannons, who can fight with you?
Mingjian feels that this is the last word in development.
Li Gang nodded and said: "Then this outline, the minister will take it back and figure it out, and if you don't understand something, please ask the official family for more advice." ”
Ming Jian nodded and said, "The teacher can study with confidence, or he can study with Li Ruoshui, and then according to this outline, he will formulate the education textbooks of the Great Song Dynasty." ”
