Chapter 4 Renewing the Glory II

readx;

Cai Jing, the right-hand man of the law change, although not as important as the core Wang Anshi, is also an indispensable and important person for the law change. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info is known for being smart and shrewd.

Especially the news of the defeat of Shaanzhou came last time, and Han Qi strongly advocated sending troops to Shaanzhou to save the defeat. Cai Jing proposed to send troops from the land of Yanyun to rescue the crisis in Shaanzhou, which was admirable.

Today, when the ministers are silent, Cai Jing is going to play again, will he do another thing to frustrate Han Qi? The minister, who was familiar with what happened last time, couldn't help but be surprised.

"Oh!" A look of surprise flashed in Song Shenzong's eyes, he looked at Cai Jing with a little surprise, and said with a smile: "Cai Jing, you say!" ”

Cai Jing responded, pondered for a while, and said: "The official, the minister thinks that after the land of Yanyun is recovered, it is not only about pacifying and governing, but also about being far-sighted and making more far-reaching preparations. ”

As soon as he said this, it was like thunder and lightning, which shocked people, and the ministers all widened their eyes and were amazed.

"Cai Jing, don't talk nonsense!" Han Qi was very unhappy with Cai Jing, if it wasn't for Cai Jing's efforts to frustrate him, he would have raised troops to Shaanzhou last time.

"Yes!" Many ministers echoed: "After the land of Yanyun is recovered, what else can there be besides pacifying and governing? ”

Wang Anshi raised his eyebrows, and the light in his eyes flashed, as if he had realized. looked at Cai Jing, and a look of appreciation flashed in his eyes.

Sima Guang raised his eyebrows, a little confused, and looked at Cai Jing, very puzzled.

A smile flashed across the corner of Song Shenzong's mouth, and he glanced at Sima Guang again, looked at Sima Guang's confused appearance in his eyes, and shook his head gently. His movements were so slight that no one noticed.

Cai Jing ignored Han Qi's reprimand, but continued to analyze and said: "The land of Yanyun is extremely important in the Great Song Dynasty, and since ancient times, it has been an important place to resist the northern nomads. During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the Seven Kingdoms competed for hegemony, but Yan State did not participate in the Central Plains competition. At that time, the Hu people and Xiongnu in the north did not live in Koubian, and the Yan State had to concentrate its forces to fight with the Hulu. From yes, there is Qin to attack Hu! ”

Cai Jingbo's characters from the past and the present did not directly explain, but quoted history and took history as a mirror: "After Qin Shi Huang swept away the Six Kingdoms and unified China, he ordered Meng Tian to lead an army of 300,000 to attack the land of Hetao and break the Xiongnu. Tou Manshan was defeated, had to flee to the north of the desert, recuperate, lick the wounds, raise the soldiers and horses, take advantage of the chaos at the end of Qin, under the leadership of Mao Dun, make a comeback, for a hundred years, until the Han Wu defeated the Huns. ”

Meng Tian's defeat of the Xiongnu in Hetao provided an opportunity for the Qin Dynasty to solve the Xiongnu problem. If the Qin Dynasty had concentrated its forces, driven straight in, and pursued Mobei, just like the decisive battle of Mobei launched by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, without giving the Xiongnu time to recuperate, there would have been no Xiongnu comeback under the leadership of Mao Dun, and there would have been no Xiongnu who had fought the Han Dynasty for tens or hundreds of years.

Unfortunately, Qin Shi Huang died young and the Qin Dynasty fell, giving the Xiongnu a god-sent opportunity.

These ministers, who were well versed in history, would not have any objection to this statement, and they nodded their heads in agreement. It's just that they don't understand how Cai Jing will go on.

Just when the ministers were confused, they only heard Cai Jing continue: "In the previous dynasty, the Turks were rampant, and Jieli Khan once came to Weishui and forced Tang Taizong to make an alliance under the city. Tang Taizong was ashamed and humiliated, ready to take revenge, and gathered a large number of ordnance, grain and grass, and troops in the land of Yanyun. As soon as the time was ripe, Li Jing led the Tang army to march north, and Li Jing personally led 3,000 warriors to Yinshan and attacked Jieli's lair in one fell swoop. ”

This is a past event, and the ministers are aware of it. Although more than 200 years have passed, listening to it again still makes them enthusiastic and excited.

"It can be seen that the land of Yanyun is the key to Huaxia!"

Cai Jing came to an important conclusion, his voice turned high, a little sharp and piercing, and said: "If there is no land of Yanyun, there will be no grand event for the Han Dynasty to defeat the Huns!" If there is no land of Yanyun, there can be no Li Jing attacking Yin Mountain at night! Now, the land of Yanyun has been recovered, if the Great Song Dynasty is only governing, just appeased, so that the people here can live a good life, live and work in peace and contentment, and give people enough home, it will be a mistake! Big fallacy! ”

“……”

Cai Jing used history as a mirror and listed famous events in history, which had already hinted at the ministers. Speaking of this, if you don't understand what Cai Jing means, then you don't deserve to appear here, and you don't deserve to be listed in the court, and the ministers are both shocked and ashamed, and they are even more envious and jealous.

"The land of Yanyun is the key to Huaxia!" This conclusion is absolutely correct, and countless histories have proved it, who dares to say a word? Who would dare not admit it?

"Hmmm! Reasonable! Reasonable! The smile on Song Shenzong's face became even thicker, and his eyes were full of appreciation as he looked at Cai Jing.

Wang Anshi stared at Cai Jing, nodded heavily, relieved, and couldn't help shaking his head, sighing: "As the prime minister, I didn't think of this, I'm ashamed!" Ashamed! ”

Sima Guang's mouth opened wide, and his face was shocked. Although Cai Jing has not yet said his intentions, they all understand that this limelight has been robbed of Cai Jing again.

Moreover, Cai Jing's limelight is stronger and more admirable than that of Wang Anshi.

Han Qi looked at Cai Jing's eyes with a touch of anger, last time, Cai Jing ruined his good deeds, and this time Cai Jing stole everyone's limelight. Especially he, a famous general and long-cherished general who is famous for knowing soldiers, did not have insight into the stakes involved, is he still worthy of being called a famous general?

"Cai Jing, what do you say?" Song Shenzong took a few steps forward, getting closer to Cai Jing, staring at Cai Jing with great expectations.

"The official family, according to the minister's opinion, get the land of Yanyun, Huaxia Chang! The land of lost Yanyun, the decline of China! Cai Jing didn't answer directly, and came up with a high theory: "Now, the land of Yanyun has returned to the hands of the Great Song Dynasty, and the Great Song Dynasty is prosperous!" Chen Cai Jing congratulates the official family! ”

"Congratulations to the official family!" Cai Jing's conclusion was right, and the ministers were busy congratulating.

"Huh!" Song Shenzong let out a burst of laughter and said, "The land of Yanyun is very important, it is the key to Huaxia!" However, just recovering the land of Yanyun will not be able to make a contribution, and appropriate measures are needed. Cai Jing, you can see this, not bad! Not bad! What do you say? ”

The conclusion has come out, how to deal with it is the most important thing, and it is important to come up with feasible ways to do it!

"The land of Yanyun has been recovered, and the Great Song Changda is about to reappear, even if it is to reproduce the weather of the previous dynasty!" Cai Jing's tone was a little trembling, excited, and his tone became more shrill: "It is only a matter of time before the Great Song Dynasty marched into Liaodong, crisscrossed the desert, destroyed the Western Xia, and recovered the Western Regions. If you are prepared, you can be safe, and the ministers ask the official family to issue an order to mobilize the army, grain and grass, and ordnance to Youzhou, and send good generals to sit in Youzhou! ”

The land of Yanyun is very important, but if there is no perfect preparation, if the army is not mobilized in advance, the grain and grass are stored, and the ordnance is stored, and a general is not sent to sit in Youzhou, the land of Yanyun will not be able to play a role.

Whether it was Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty who defeated the Xiongnu or Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty who destroyed the Turks, they all started from the land of Yanyun, and they were all based on this, accumulating a large amount of grain, grass, ordnance here, and mobilizing a large number of troops.

It is precisely because they are well prepared, once the time is ripe, the army can be dispatched and go straight to the desert, which has established an immortal feat!

"Sima Guang, do you say what Cai Jing said is right or not?" Song Shenzong looked at Sima Guang and suddenly asked.

This is insight, who dares to say that it is wrong? Sima Guang always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't figure it out, so he had to stop thinking about it, and said cautiously: "Official, what Lord Cai said is very reasonable, and the minister asked the official family to say that he had already passed through the land of Yanyun!" ”

"Yes! The land of Yanyun is already urgent. Song Shenzong nodded slightly, and said: "Han Wuna's master Yan's words built Shuo Fang, and only then did he defeat the Huns." I passed through Yanyun, passed through Youzhou, and the Great Song Dynasty sent troops to Liaodong, marched into the desert, destroyed the Western Xia, and recovered the Western Regions. ”

These words are exciting, high-pitched and majestic, and make people's blood boil.

Liaodong, the Great Desert, Hexi, and the Western Regions are China's inherent territories, which have been incorporated into the territory since the Han Dynasty, and have been more than a thousand years old. But because the Song Dynasty was weak, it could not be taken back, and it became a foreign land.

Now, the situation in the Song Dynasty has changed greatly, the military power has been greatly enhanced, Yanyun has recovered, and it has become an urgent matter to recover these lost territories. Don't say to do it, just thinking about it is exciting, the ministers hold their heads high, their chests puffed up, majestic and heroic, and their blood is boiling, as if they are galloping on the desert.

Song Shenzong clenched his fists, and the divine light in his eyes shot out, like a sharp sword, staring ahead. After these lost lands were recovered, the Song Dynasty also restored the strength of the Tang Dynasty, and the great cause was completed by itself, and the Song Shenzong would become a holy monarch and praise for future generations.

For the emperor like this, what more can the husband ask for?

At this moment, Song Shenzong was full of blood, and he couldn't wait to immediately send troops to recover these lost territories.

However, not yet, we still have to be prepared. Sect Chief Song Shen took a breath, forced himself to calm down, looked at Cai Jing, and said, "The matter of Yanyun, Cai Jing is the first to advocate it, and it is Cai Jing who goes to Yanyun." Cai Jing, would you like to go to Yanyun? ”

"The minister will never give up!" This is Song Shenzong's great trust in him, and at the same time, it is a supreme glory, Cai Jing was so excited that tears flowed out, and his face was full of red light.

Yan Yun has taken it back, and the ministers who go to govern here will be in the spotlight and have a bright future. Song Shenzong sent him this errand, which was a great trust in him, and it had opened up a bright future for Cai Jing.

What's more, it's an incredible honor!

"Su Shi, you go too!" Song Shenzong looked at Su Shi with a smile: "You not only have to govern Yanyun, but also write good works and achieve good stories!" ”

Song Shenzong appreciates Su Shi's talent and fame, and he really looks forward to Su Shi's masterpieces.

"Xie Guan's family!" Su Shi couldn't help but feel relieved, and almost put on a song.

"Shen Kuo, you go too. You are good at crafting things, so you go to the north to work more with the Wu military industry and make more sharp weapons. Song Shenzong nodded at Shen Kuo again, and said: "The weapons made by the Wu family's military industry are incomparably sharp, but Wu Ji is entangled in military affairs, and it is difficult to have time to take care of it. ”

After a slight pause, he said: "A large number of troops will be transferred to Youzhou soon, and Wang Shao needs a large amount of ordnance to train his army. ”

Song Shenzong has done his best to do his best this time, and he has made up his mind to manage the land of Yanyun.

The land of Yanyun is slightly better, and it is not a problem to renew the glory of the Han and Tang Dynasties!
