What can Everlasting Island do?

In that year, the third uncle was shipwrecked and ran to Changsheng Island, which later became a bridgehead for Wang Ning'an to smuggle from the Jurchen tribes of the Liao State, and then the Bai family put the glaze workshop on Changsheng Island...... A wild island, already with two or three thousand people, has docks, farmland, workshops, shops, like a small kingdom on the sea. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

The Liao country is huge, but the population is limited, and the narrow Liaodong Peninsula is not a place of interest to them, not to mention an island hanging on the sea, and the numb Liao people have not noticed it yet!

But Wang Ningan thought about it, and he had a very big idea.

Changsheng Island used to be the homeland of the Bohai Kingdom, if you support the descendants of the Bohai Kingdom, take the Liaodong Peninsula, and rebuild the Bohai Kingdom, you can cut off one of the arms of the Liao Kingdom and start a fire in their backyard!

He drew around the map and felt more and more that this method was very good, as long as the Balhae Kingdom was rebuilt, he could influence the Goryeo and Wa kingdoms to the east.

You must know that a few decades ago, the Khitan conquered Goryeo and killed Goryeo in pieces, and the hatred between the two sides was no less than that of Song Liaolai, but Goryeo couldn't beat the Khitan, so he could only surrender.

If you get the Balhae Kingdom out, you can absorb the power of Goryeo and Wa to the east and form a grand alliance against the Liao State!

The Liao State declared 200,000 iron cavalry at every turn, and if there was a disturbance in the east, it would be able to contain at least 100,000 iron cavalry, so that the pressure on Yan Yun faced by the Great Song Dynasty would be half less.

After all, Liao is a wolf, Yan Yun is their gentle township, Yan Yun is in hand, and he can still catch Liao Guo, if Yan Yun is lost, Liao State and the Great Song Dynasty will play a field war, and Yan Yun's fortifications cannot be repaired, and it will be difficult to deal with the iron cavalry of Liao State.

In the original history, Tong Guan, who had a very bad reputation, took back the sixteen states of Yanyun, but it didn't take long for the Jin soldiers to go south, not only did Yanyun gain and lose, but even Bianjing and two emperors were lost, which was a shame for Jingkang!

Suppose that if there was an additional Bohai State at that time, delayed the Jin soldiers for three or five years, and gave the Great Song Dynasty enough time to rebuild the defense line of the Great Wall, no matter how powerful the Jin soldiers were, they were only tens of thousands of people, could they cross the layers of defense lines and kill Bianjing?

Wang Ningan has always been very confused that it is easy to fight Yanyun, but it is difficult to guard Yanyun, and the most important thing is to have a sufficient buffer period.

In the past, there was always no idea, who would have thought, in fact, the idea is at hand!

It's on Changsheng Island, it's in the Bohai Sea!

It's all through, it's all through!

Wang Ningan even has a kind of constipation for half a month, and once smooth, he feels refreshed!

As long as a son falls on the Liaodong Peninsula, this game of chess will be alive!

Wang Ning'an was very excited, he hurriedly went to visit Fan Zhongyan again, and communicated his ideas with Lao Fan, and it happened that Ouyang Xiu was also there, and they brought Yan Shu and Mei Yaochen over, gathered the wisdom of the five people, and repeatedly scrutinized, and they all felt that this was a clever plan.

"That's true, Bohai Guoxing, Yanyun recovering, my Great Song Dynasty can be expected, even if our old men die, they will smile Jiuquan."

Fan Zhongyan sighed, stared at the map again, thought for a while, and said quietly: "In the Great Song Dynasty, it is too difficult to do things, even if it is the right thing!" The old gentleman was moved, "The restoration of the Bohai State is by no means a trivial matter, nor is it something that can be achieved after a few of us discuss it, not only with the full support of His Majesty, but also with the cooperation of the princes of the DPRK and China, are you sure?" ”

Ouyang Xiu shook his head, "To be honest, I can't be sure, it's really not a trivial matter to support a country that has been destroyed for a hundred years, I'm worried that the political hall won't be able to pass it." ”

Fan Zhongyan nodded, "Yes, back then, everyone was still able to be single-minded, but I didn't expect it, but now it has become like this, it's really sad and lamentable!" ”

A big opportunity, an excellent plan, in front of the big guy, if not implemented, everyone will regret it for life, and die blindly!

After thinking for a long time, Yan Shu was the first to stand up.

He gritted his teeth, "Several, I'll get rid of this old face and go to find my indisputable son-in-law, he is a three-phase, and he still has influence!" ”

"Then Jia Chang will go over there and I'll say!" Ouyang Xiu took the initiative to take the initiative.

Mei Yaochen smiled, "Since that's the case, I'll be in charge of Tang Jie and Wang Gongchen, so we also have some friendship." ”

Ouyang Xiu glanced at Wang Ning'an, "Erlang, Your Majesty and Di Shuxiang want you to go there." ”

Wang Ningan didn't hesitate at all, "There is definitely no problem with Prime Minister Di, our Majesty also has the heart to cheer up, I am very sure, and now there is only one problem left." ”

Everyone knows that he is talking about Han Qi.

Don't look at Han Qi among all the ministers, ranking last, but he holds the three divisions, the financial power of the imperial court, and all kinds of ordnance manufacturing, the most terrible thing is that Han Qi has avoided the previous copper price war, there is nothing wrong with him, even if he is in Zhao Zhen's place, he is also a white lotus, and the weight of his words is very heavy, if Han Qi does not nod, things will not be easy.

Everyone, look at me, I'll look at you, and finally their eyes fell on Fan Zhongyan.

Lao Fan smiled helplessly, "After so many years, I don't know if my old face is useless!" But for the sake of the Great Song Dynasty, even if I lose face, why don't I go! ”

……

In the next few days, Wang Ningan could only end his honeymoon early, running around, discussing with this and communicating with that, and he was very busy.

Finally, seven days later, Zhao Zhen convened the imperial meeting again, and all the ministers arrived, although Fan Zhongyan and Yan Shu had a high status in the rivers and lakes, but after all, they were Zhishi for many years and were not qualified to participate, and the ones who really stood with Wang Ningan were Ouyang Xiu, Di Qing, and added a Zhao Zongjing.

There were only four people, and on the other side of them, all the ministers were present.

This time Zhao Zhen did not show obvious tendencies, even if Wang Ningan did a lot of work, Zhao Zhen also thought that the matter was mixed, danger and opportunity coexisted, what to do, or let everyone discuss.

Contrary to everyone's expectations, the first one to stand up was Sanxiang Fubi, who had been silent.

He took a deep breath and said in a slow but firm voice: "Restoring the Bohai Kingdom is very inappropriate!" As far as Lao Chen knows, the remnants of the Bohai Kingdom have long disappeared, and the last group moved to Goryeo more than 50 years ago. ”

Zhao Zhen frowned slightly, "Fu Aiqing, what you said is true?" ”

"It's true, if there is the slightest lie, the old minister is willing to be punished."

After Fu Bi finished speaking, the second person to stand up was Wang Gongchen, "Your Majesty, as Fu Xianggong said, the Bohai Kingdom has long disappeared, and whether it can be done or not, even if it can be supported, how much financial resources and energy will it take, the sea is vast, how much baggage will be transported, and how many people will be sent?" With these energies, it is better to strengthen the defense of all parts of Hebei, this is the right thing to do! ”

"The minister seconded the king." Wang Yaochen stood up and said.

"The minister also seconded it!" After a brief hesitation, Tang Jie pressed his mouth and said.

……

Things have come to this point, which is much beyond Ouyang Xiu and Wang Ningan's expectations.

Yan Shu and Mei Yaochen's hard work was in vain? Why didn't anyone say anything?

Even if they remain neutral, they will come up with four guns, how can they push it down?

Can't be silent any longer, Ouyang Xiu stood up angrily, "Your Majesty, the so-called Bohai State is just with the help of the former name, the key is to insert a knife in the side of the Liao State, as long as the banner of the Bohai State is played, it can attract tens of thousands of Liao soldiers, at this time, Liao is in trouble with internal and external relations, and it is time to take the initiative to attack and weaken the opponent." Otherwise, once the battle for the storage position of the Liao State is over, the heaven-sent opportunity will be lost! I beg your majesty to think twice! ”

"Not necessarily!"

Han Qi suddenly smiled, "Drunkard, Liao's domestic and foreign relations are in trouble, and the situation of my Great Song Dynasty is fine?" In the past few years, there have been disasters and famines, and the troops have been used year after year, and a few days ago, in order to rebuild the Jingsai Army, the Third Division took out 15 million at once! How much money does the imperial court have, can it be wasted casually? What's more, last year, Song Liao trade contributed 6.7 million yuan from Pingxian Rongchang alone. ”

When Han Qi said this, he also glanced at Wang Ning'an, "Speaking of which, it can be regarded as the credit of Lord Wang, but the old man wants to ask Lord Wang, if the Liao State knows that we support the Bohai Kingdom, will they close the trade?" What about these millions of dollars? ”

Without waiting for Wang Ningan to speak, Zhao Zongjing suddenly couldn't hold back and jumped up.

"Han Xianggong, what are you talking about? Is the tariff of millions of dollars important? Or is the sixteen states of Yanyun important? ”

Han Qi sank his face, "Little Prince, if you support the so-called Bohai Kingdom, will you be able to take back Yanyun?" If he can do it, of course Han supports it, but if he can't do it, the old man can't watch so much money go down the drain! Lord Wang, you also served as the magistrate of Ping County, you can't bear to see your people lose their source of livelihood and be alone, right? ”

To be honest, Wang Ningan was very surprised, he thought that Fan Zhongyan and Yan Shu would always be able to persuade one or two that as long as the political hall was divided, Zhao Zhen could forcibly promote the revival of the Bohai Kingdom.

But who would have thought that these ministers would be more resolute than before, and they jumped out to oppose it together, which is really depressing.

Wang Ningan had to speak, "Han Xianggong, you said that it would cost a lot of money, but what is the basis?" If you want me to say, not only does it not cost much, but on the contrary, it is profitable! ”

"You talk nonsense!"

"Han Xianggong, just by patting his head, he can't find the right answer!" Wang Ningan also said unceremoniously: "So many people in the Liao State have fled, it can be seen that the country is already in chaos, at this time, as long as the banner of the Bohai State is raised, they can gather a force, no matter how much, as long as the Liao soldiers can be mobilized, they will be exhausted." As for the Rongchang side, we earned six or seven million tariffs, and Liaoguo earned even more! These tariffs cost less than one-tenth of the financial revenue of the Great Song Dynasty, but they were one-third of that of the Liao State! Do they dare to tear their faces with Da Song? ”

……

The quarrel between the two sides became more and more intense, and in the end, Zhao Zhen's head was about to explode, and he could only say to Jia Changchao: "Jia Xianggong, what do you think?" ”

Jia Changchao hesitated for a moment, peeked at Wang Ning'an, and then shook his head slightly, "The old minister thinks that he should focus on cultivating the source and consolidating the foundation, and support the illusory Bohai Kingdom, which consumes national strength and harms the people, which is really not the blessing of the Great Song Dynasty!" ”
