The Manchu Dynasty was shocked and inexplicable, and Lu Chengqi was also "shocked and inexplicable". Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

After all, the Han people were frightened by the Khitans, and when they heard the sound of a Pegasus emergency, they calculated who would be unlucky. Today's military department is a kind of slander, because he first served as a civilian, because he had a strategy, and later changed to a military position. He is a kind of old brother who is slightly more than a man, but he is much better at dealing with people than he is a kind of man. It will not kill innocents indiscriminately like a seed, although the army is strictly governed, but the people above and below are obeyed.

He also has a clan brother who served in the border army of Datong Prefecture.

Last year, after Yang Wenguang stepped down as the secretary of the Ministry of War due to illness, Lu Chengqi thought about it and recalled him from Datong Mansion to Chang'an and ordered him to be the secretary of the Ministry of War.

The military department Shangshu is a hard job, also known as Da Sima, who is the chief executive in charge of the country's military. After the establishment of the Privy Council, the authority of the military department was weakened, and the departments in the yamen of the Shangshu Mansion became idle. What's even more amazing is that the chief executive who commands the military of the whole country has been a civilian official since the time of Taizu, which shows what the military department has become like when it is written.

After Lu Chengqi took power in person, the secretary of the military department gradually had a certain say in logistics, military books, and weapons warfare, and the weapons supervisor was also placed under the jurisdiction of the military department. Coupled with the new compilation of "General Essentials of the Martial Arts", the military department has finally increased its prestige a little. After Yang Wenguang's efforts, he finally did not lose to the other six.

At this time, when there was a war, everyone glanced at the Privy Council and the Ministry of War, and the meaning could not be more obvious.

I'll come to a good thing, and you will carry the black pot!

And Lu Chengqi was extremely excited, since Jiaozhi was included in the territory, he governed for seven years, and finally became the land of Dashun. All in all, it's been a long time since there's been a war.

The swords and soldiers are put into the warehouse, and the horses are put in Nanshan, that is the most stupid thing. The more prosperous a country is, the more prosperous it is, the more fat it is in the eyes of aliens. Lu Chengqi naturally wouldn't do such a stupid thing, he still wanted to level the steppe in his heart and fight all the way to Kievan Rus' to see who the real "fighting nation" was?

After a while, the sound of Pegasus's urgent shouting got closer and closer, and it broke directly into the Daqing Palace.

"Report! Eight hundred miles of border urgent! ”

Lu Chengqi got up, looked around at the ministers below, and said in a deep voice: "I ordered you, and report it carefully!" ”

"Yes!" The Pegasus hurriedly gave a strong military salute, and the two small flags behind him trembled. I saw Pegasus urgently present a fire-painted wooden box over his head and let the chamberlain beside Lu Chengqi take it away, and then he said loudly: "Half a month ago, the Liao State brazenly sent troops to attack the Xiachang of Danzhou City, Yunnei Prefecture, Laizhou, and Xiazhou...... Gathering more than 300,000 troops, they came and went in a moment, and plundered the people, gold, silver, and tea cloth countless ......"

"Coaxing !!"

For a while, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty began to exchange heads, and even the long-winged hats could not stop their discussions.

Lu Chengqi's face flushed, but he was actually excited.

After waiting for so long, you can't help it when you finally wait for Liao. A blunt knife cuts meat, but it is always a blunt knife. The people of the grassland have so much money, and even if the trade surplus reaches the limit, the people living in the grassland can still live. If you want to conquer a nation, you should be more profitable with a real sword.

Coupled with cultural invasion and powerful firearms, where will the steppe people be opponents?

The Manchu manchu tricks against the Mongols in the official history seem to be something that can be used for reference. The purpose of abolishing shamans and honoring lamas is nothing more than threefold: first, Buddhism destroys the fighting spirit and makes the warlike Mongols fall into weakness and become weak people who can be bullied; Second, Buddhism has caused a large number of young people and middle-aged people to become monks, causing the population to shrink and be on the verge of extinction. Third, Buddhism has made a large amount of materials used for the construction of temples, and a large amount of wealth has been donated to temples as offerings, so that production cannot be developed, and the people are in a state of vitality.

But Lu Chengqi disdains to use religion to subjugate a nation, even if he wants to assimilate, why use Tibet and Buddhism? Chinese culture has been in China for thousands of years, and even the grassland people can't assimilate it!

Let them read poetry and books, take the imperial examination, understand the benefits of "fame", and naturally obey.

As for the common people, then enclosure grazing, every family has a fixed grassland for grazing, and the water source is shared by the population of the family. Turning the grassland into your own is the same as farming in the grassland, but farming becomes grazing.

Then some Han people moved into the grassland to live together, and after a few generations, they were naturally assimilated.

Of course, the premise of this is to completely defeat the Liao State. Without force, a nation cannot be subjugated.

Lu Chengqi has been thinking about this idea for a long, long time, and he has been struggling to implement it. Now I was trying to fall asleep, and someone brought me a pillow, which is really suitable!

"What do you think?"

Lu Chengqi looked around at the ministers in the hall, and slowly fell into the dragon chair, as if he had no worries.

Feng Jing, the first assistant of the cabinet, had to come out and express his position at this moment: "Your Majesty, the Khitans are treacherous, regard the covenant as nothing, destroy the field, and have no intention of becoming enemies with our Dashun again. Shun Liao's feud, this matter is by no means easy. Why don't you think in the long run, and surrender without a fight......"

The privy envoy Jiang Yu came out and said: "The Liao people have offended my Dashun for no reason, how can I sit idly by?" Not to mention the border people, they have been suffering for a long time, if the court does not send troops, I am afraid that the border people will have resentment against the court! The minister is not talented, and he thinks that he should return a tooth for a tooth and an eye for an eye! ”

Lu Chengqi can be regarded as hearing it, the first assistant Feng Jing is in charge of peace, and the privy envoy Jiang Yu is in charge of the battle.

Fortunately, there is no surrender faction, and I am not afraid that the butcher's knife that Lu Chengqi has put down will be raised again. In fact, the Han people in the Central Plains still look down on the Khitans, thinking that they have just been transformed from Ru Mao to "people", or barbarians. Central Plains Huaxia is the orthodoxy of the world, when did Huaxia be afraid of barbarism? There is no way to talk about surrender, but anyone who thinks that the Central Plains is orthodox, no matter how bad his morality is, will not surrender easily. This bit of style and bones, literati still have to have a drop.

"Otherwise, the Liao State is strong in battle, and it is unwise to directly attack its edge!" Some ministers jumped out and fought for Feng Jing. This is also Feng Jing's strength, he is extremely thoughtful in dealing with people, and rarely offends people.

Jiang Yu laughed and said, "Wouldn't it be that if you don't take advantage of it, the Khitans won't loot?" Your Majesty, in recent years, the grasslands have become increasingly cold, the forage is insufficient, the Khitan cattle and sheep have suffered heavy losses, and the people are in dire straits. They plundered the field just to survive. That's why the more you have to be on guard! Once the Liao State felt that I Dashun was weak and could be bullied, he drove straight in, and it was too late to regret it! The minister begs His Majesty to send troops to keep the enemy out of the country! ”
