Article 571 The Situation Around the Great Song Dynasty 1

As for whether Wang Yansuo and Liu Anshi know about this kind of thing, whether they are involved in this kind of thing, it doesn't matter whether there is evidence or not, the reason why they have been kept is to let the people all over the world take a look at what kind of goods the conservative officials are.

said that it is invincible in the world, and when it comes to doing it, it is not as good as some officials who change the law and make up for it. These two Jinshi in the north are just silverfish of the Great Song Dynasty.

In the palace, after Meng gave birth to a prince for Zhao Xu, he never begged Empress Dowager Zhu and Zhao Xu once, except for seeing the little prince once a month, he stayed alone in Yaohua Palace and quietly became her female Taoist.

Zhao Xu was naturally a little guilty, so he was a little alienated from Liu Jieyu, who had stirred up trouble in the harem before. Not to mention the position of queen that has been promised a long time ago, even if she gave birth to a second princess to the emperor, she has not been promoted to any level.

In the court, old Han Jin finally died.

Zhao Xu can finally get rid of the constraints of the prime minister relative to himself, and the first person to be mentioned as the prime minister is a person who no one thought of - Lu Dazhong, the brother of Lu Dafang, the prime minister at the end of the Yuanyou period.

After that, Zhao Xu mentioned several old ministers of the previous dynasty, such as the son of Wang Qi, the prime minister of the Three Decrees. He originally wanted to recruit Cai Dao's second uncle Wang Bi to serve as the prime minister, but he didn't expect to be rejected by this son of Wang Anshi, who is not well-known.

This time, in order to take care of face and maintain the tradition of the Great Song Dynasty, Zhao Xu tried his best to select six more obedient ministers, and made up for the vacancy of the previous six prime ministers at once.

And the last candidate for prime minister, in the end, Zhao Xu still listened to Zeng Zhao's opinion and chose Fan Chunli, the former transfer envoy of Jingxi Road.

Although Fan Chunli did not do a very good job as a transfer envoy on Jingdong and West Road, after all, he did not make any big trouble, and Jingxi Road did not lose a large number of people in the territory like Huainan Road. His actions are much better than those of conservative ministers. He is still the son of Fan Zhongyan, and this title alone is enough for him to take up the post of prime minister.

What's more, Fan Chunli is an official, and his character and ethics are very good.

And it was his younger brother Fan Chunchun who succeeded Fan Chunli as the transfer envoy, but this time it was recommended by Zhang Dan.

The brothers successively served as a transit envoy along the way, and also created the first precedent of the Great Song Dynasty, which was rumored to be a beautiful talk in the Beijing and West Roads.

But the two brothers, Fan Chunli and Fan Chun, knew that they were suffering, and they all knew the true meaning of this appointment.

This appointment must have been a killer move by the Reformers.

This is because they want their brother to completely ruin their reputation on Jingxi Road.

Previously, Fan Chunli was just lucky, during his tenure, there were no large-scale natural disasters on the entire Jingxi Road, coupled with his own incorruptible and self-disciplined style. Even if the life of the people under his rule is a little more difficult, as long as the officials give them a way to live, they will still be grateful to such officials.

This is the Great Song,

This is the people in the Great Song Dynasty,

Diligent, kind, hard-working

This is also a precious and lovely place for the people living at the bottom in ancient China.

……

There has been great success on the political front.

Correspondingly, in the military aspect, Zhao Xu and Zhang Dian were not complacent because of this, and stopped there.

Today, the Great Song Kingdom was once the enemy of the four realms.

The kingdom of Da Viet, since the city of Thang Long was breached and emptied, it has become a vacant ghost town. Because, no one in the other rulers of the Great Yue Kingdom can guarantee that the Great Song Kingdom will invade the city again according to the route last time.

Facing the sea, this city that is not a coastal city is simply undefended in front of the Great Song Sea Ship.

The country is divided into many forces, many members of the Wang clan occupy a region, and there are frequent wars between each other, but these forces are almost evenly matched, and in such a situation, no one can tell the winner or loser within a few years.

This is, of course, the foreshadowing left by Cai Dao.

It is also a situation that the monarchs and ministers of the Great Song Dynasty want to see.

This is not the end, outside the current territory of the Great Yue Kingdom, it is also surrounded by strong enemies.

In the south, southeast, and northwest directions, the Great Viet Kingdom encountered major military setbacks and great military pressure at the same time.

The Cham and Chenla kingdoms now not only occupy a lot of the territory that originally belonged to the Da Yue Kingdom, but also take the initiative to withdraw troops from each other, and have been stationing heavy troops on their borders with the Da Yue State.

On the one hand, it is naturally to prevent the sudden domestic stability of the Great Viet State, and to send troops to retaliate against the two countries and recover their lost territory.

On the other hand, the two countries are still eyeing each other, wanting to take advantage of the civil strife in Da Viet Nam to take the opportunity to carve up the remaining territories.

In the north, it is the country of Dali, in the past, the country of Dayue has also sent troops to defeat the army of the country of Dali, and occupied a lot of territory of the country of Dali.

After the Gao Clan's change, Duan Zhengming was forced to cede a lot of territory.

But in his heart, he is still grateful to Da Song. After he came to power, he behaved very deferentially to the Great Song Dynasty, not only because the Great Song Kingdom eliminated the Gao clan for him and helped him regain the right of the Duan clan to rule the country.

is also because the transshipment envoy in Dianzhou is still Cai Xuan.

Dali also began to regain its prosperity step by step.

After Duan Zhengming came to power, he took the initiative to ask the Great Song State to send Wenchen and military generals to help him govern the country.

With the assistance of the Great Song Dynasty, Duan Zhengming began to reorganize the entire country and vigorously fought against the army.

First of all, Zhao Xu took the initiative to send some young civil officials from the Great Song Dynasty to assist him in China, and also implemented the new law.

Of course, the specific implementation of the new law will not copy the new law in the Great Song Dynasty, but will appropriately adjust the content of the new law according to the customs and habits of Dali.

However, there is one thing that has been supported by the entire Dali royal family, that is, to vigorously develop the scale of Dali City. In the process of implementing the new law, Duan Zhengming began to send officials to gather the people from all over the city of Dali and began to move to Dali City.

Secondly, taking advantage of this opportunity, the number of the forbidden army of Dali was greatly expanded, and, with the assistance of the generals of the Great Song Dynasty, the forbidden army of Duan Zhengming was trained.

In doing so, there are two benefits.

The first benefit is that the strong stem is weak.

The second benefit is to prevent the possibility of being stripped of all rights by the re-encumbered ministers.

Of course, the main reason for the implementation of these measures is the geographical location and surrounding resources of Dali City.
