Chapter 1027 [National Covenant]
Around noon on the 21st day of the first lunar month, the news about Zhao Chen's affair and Empress Dowager Zheng's agreement to crown Zhao Fujin as the king of Jin arrived almost at the same time.
It's not that there is something wrong with the messengers, it's just that after the previous news arrived in Hebei, it was ordered to be detained by the seed master for a day, and then the two batches of messengers were arranged to be sent to Liaodong on the same boat.
For the matter of King Ning, the seed master wrote more than 3,000 words with Huang Jie, what is the righteousness of the Ming Dynasty, and what is the favoritism, I am afraid that Huang Jie will have a misunderstanding of the old lady who feels sorry for Zhao Chen, and also emphasized that the Hebei Department and the Border Army Department will definitely unite with Huang Jie in the matter of the Northern Expedition to attack Jin, and will never stab the knife in the back.
As for the matter of the ministers of the cabinet encouraging the old lady to entitle Zhao Fujin as the king of Jin, there are only four words in the way of the planter, which is "very agreeable"!
As for Huang Jie, I don't know if it was a small coincidence or deliberate by the two messengers when he received the flying, although the two brown paper envelopes were handed to Huang Jie's desk together, but it was the old lady who wanted to entitle Zhao Fujin as the king of Jin, so Huang Jie was still confused when he opened it, and he didn't know what kind of wind was pumping in China, but he actually wanted to give Zhao Fujin to the king, and he was also the top prince of the king of Jin.
Because, it stands to reason that Huang Jie came to attack Liaodong, and killed the second prince of Jin Guo before the official start of the fight (although it was killed by the Zhi Keshi Department, but Huang Jie was the marshal under direct command), and not long ago there was news that the deputy marshal of Jinguo East Road, Wanyan Yinshu, was also bombarded on the city wall by the artillery squad stationed in Kaijing to protect the country, so Huang Jie is not equivalent to a double kill.
Therefore, it is Huang Jie who should be admitted to the knighthood!
I don't dare to think about the King of Jin, the King of Qin, at least the King of Huainan County's Pheasant King (meaning the same as Pheasant University), and it is okay to enter a "King of E" or "King of Anhui"! (Huainan belongs to Anhui, Huangzhou belongs to Hubei)
Therefore, Huang Jie was naturally stunned when he saw the news, thinking that if Zhao Fujin was also crowned king, the two of them would not be able to live in the future. (The king of kings?) King upon king? Belch! Don't make associations! )
When I had to open the envelope below, I understood that Xixia also had to learn from the Jin Kingdom, and I got a King Ning to come out to do things, and I suddenly realized.
Of course, the cabinet was naturally written by Wang Huang, who seemed to be more familiar with Huang Jie, and explained clearly why the cabinet wanted to encourage Empress Dowager Zheng to add Zhao Fujin to the king of Jin, but the reason was that Huang Jie looked too far-fetched, so he laughed and ignored it.
What deters Xiaoxiao, what regains people's hearts, these excuses will also deceive children, Huang Jie will see a ghost if he wants to say that he can believe it.
However, Huang Jie was interested in the alliance and the withdrawal of the Western Xia, so he quickly asked someone to bring a detailed map of the Western Xia and several surrounding countries, spread it out and studied it for an afternoon, and sent a handwritten letter back to Tokyo that night.
For these two things, Huang Jie's suggestions for solving them are also fine, first of all, about the alliance. The Great Song Dynasty should naturally be warmly welcomed, and the red tape is not much to say, and the requirements put forward by the Western Xia can be modified to the fact that the west and north and south sides of Datong Mansion should be demarcated according to the actual control line of the two countries in Jinxia today, and the Jin State will be destroyed in the future, and these lands that originally belonged to the sixteen states of Yanyun in the Great Song Dynasty must be handed over to the Great Song Dynasty, which is the bottom line that cannot be touched.
As for the territory controlled by the Jin State from the former Liao State Linhuang Mansion to the Northern Liao Zhenzhou, as long as the Western Xia was laid down in the future, it would be owned by the Western Xia, and the Great Song Dynasty would never touch it. And as compensation, the land north and east of Linhuang Mansion, the surrounding area of Dading Mansion, and even Huining and the entire Liaodong can be given to the Western Xia people, but it depends on how much the Western Xia people can contribute to the war to destroy the Jin State.
After talking about the alliance, let's talk about the withdrawal and reform of the field, Huang Jie also said that the matter can be discussed, and it is not impossible to change the Xingqing Mansion, nor does it mention that the Western Xia wants to monopolize the benefits of the Yongchang Huang Jie's only requirement is that the Western Xia must be responsible for building a road, and to build a road connecting the Great Song Yan'an Mansion to Xingqing Mansion.
The road had to meet the standard of eight lanes in both directions, and every thirty miles there had to be a city (service area) to provide drinking water and lodging for travelers along the way, and the Western Xia needed to form a cavalry force of at least 10,000 men to protect the Song merchants from Lanzhou to Xingqing.
In addition, unless the Western Xia met all the above conditions, the Great Song Dynasty would not cancel the Rongchang in the northwest, and of course it would not cancel the six new fields in Xizhou, Taozhou, and Jiezhou, which were originally scheduled to be added.
This Xizhou is the Xining of the later generations, and Taozhou is also the Lintao of Gansu in the later generations, as well as Jiezhou, that is, the Kang County of Longnan City, Gansu Province in the later generations, which is also at the junction of the Great Song Dynasty and Tubo. Counting up, the reason why the Song court planned to increase the field this time was not because the Tangut people were too good at blackening and eating black, and the small countries in the Western Regions west of the Xixia until almost the Serzhu Empire did not dare to trade with the Great Song Dynasty through the Western Xia, and in recent years, they have traveled more to the territory of Tubo, which required the Great Song Dynasty to open more fields on the border with Tubo, and did not need to take a detour to trade in Lanzhou and other places.
Therefore, Huang Jie naturally is not polite to Li Qianshun, you want to sit on the ground and share the spoils, okay! Then you have to invest first!
Now in the Great Song Dynasty, around all the official roads that have been repaired or rebuilt in Huangzhou, there must be a slogan that has already penetrated the Song people today, that is: "If you want to get rich, build roads first!" ”
At the same time, Huang Jie also gave the cabinet and the northwest planters a task, that is, from now on to prepare money, grain and materials, and prepare to start the two-way eight-lane road reconstruction and expansion project from Tokyo Bianliang through Hezhong Fu to Lanzhou and Hezhong Fu to Yan'an Fu in the next three years, ready to connect with the road in Xixia.
If you look at the map, the distance from Tokyo to Lanzhou is almost 2,000 li (950 km) in a straight line, and if it is rebuilt and expanded according to the existing official road, the total length will definitely exceed 2,500 li. From Lanzhou to Xingqing Mansion (that is, Yinchuan in later generations), it is only more than 700 miles, and it also forms an oblique angle in the direction.
Therefore, the most economical and practical plan is to build a road from Tokyo to Hazhong Province, and then branch a road north to Yan'an Province and a road to Lanzhou to the west. As for the road to Yan'an Mansion is to connect with the road built by the Western Xia people from Xingqing Mansion, what are the roads to Lanzhou going to do? Hey! Does this need to be explained?
Anyway, after Huang Jie's plan was sent back to the cabinet, several ministers looked at the map together, and naturally understood Huang Jie's intentions, and decided to use this plan on the spot. Then Bai Shizhong and Li Bangyan personally grabbed the knife and made a letter of state and a covenant, and they also summoned Li Bigeng to stuff it to him, and asked him to return to Western Xia to restore his life.
How do you know the content of this "national letter and covenant", before Li Bigeng, who was in a hurry to return to China, walked out of the outer city of Tokyo, it spread throughout the city of Tokyo like wings.
