Chapter 164: Jin Guo Asks for Help
But Gao Huaiyuan has always used this matter as an excuse that he can't call the shots, and he refuses to agree to say anything about the grain and gold, which is not that Gao Huaiyuan wants to see the Jin Kingdom fall now, but that this matter is an impossible thing for the military and people of the Southern Song Dynasty. After all www.biquge.info Jin and the Southern Song Dynasty have too deep a grudge, for more than 100 years, the Song people can be said to be fed up with the Jin people's bird spirit, and they have seen half of the rivers and mountains occupied by the Jin people, and the Jin army has continued to launch wars to invade the Song Dynasty.
He finally established a tall image in the eyes of the Song people, if he promised to import grain and gold now, as long as it was spread, he would immediately be spit on by countless Song people as a traitor! And his image will soon collapse with a bang, and he will become the person who is referred to by the thousand people, and once he is used by those who have a heart, it will cause great trouble for his future actions; So he would never allow such a thing to happen, and he would never agree to that ...
However, after the golden envoy said for a long time, Gao Huaiyuan's attitude finally softened a little, and he said instead: "After all, our two countries are not friends now!" Your predicament is known! But such a thing of giving you food at no cost is absolutely impossible!
But if you are willing to buy it with money, it is better to discuss it, and the official may allow the reopening of the city in the border between our two countries to trade it, but as for the free gift, there is no need to mention it! If you don't want to go to Lin'an, go back now and inform you of this opinion of the gold lord, and if he is willing, he will handle it accordingly!" ”
Gao Huaiyuan played a trick this time, and promised to reopen the two countries' Rong City and conduct commercial and trade transactions, after all, the Song and Jin countries have been fighting and stopping for a hundred years, but the Rong City is often open, and the two sides are often communicating with each other, even if he agrees to open the Rong City, others can't say anything. And now he still needs a period of preparation, and he doesn't want to see Jin Guo collapse so quickly, so he still has to give Jin Guo a little help to a certain extent.
The golden envoy almost cried, if they had money, where would they still run here with baba, begging Gao Huaiyuan to pull them! Not to mention taking out the money to buy 200,000 stone of grain, their Emperor His Majesty is about to be used as pants at this time, and he can't open the pot in his palace, where can he still have money to buy food!
The Jin envoy begged Gao Huaiyuan again, hoping to persuade Gao Huaiyuan to promise to give them some food emergencies, those attachés all felt blushing at this time, they were a group of envoys of the Jin country, at this time it was like asking for food, begging the donor to give them a little leftovers, if it wasn't for the survival of the Jin country, they would not want to suffer this grievance...
"This is already the biggest concession that this official can make! You'd better go back! However, this official can give you some ideas, so that your financier has the money to buy grain from me!" Gao Huaiyuan still bit the bite and refused to agree...
When the Jin envoy heard this, he had to listen to it and see what Gao Huaiyuan could do for them. "I think that when I entered the New Year's coins to you every year, you should be quite rich! And now you are short of money, in fact, most of the money is scattered into the hands of many powerful people, if your gold lord wants to save your gold country, then the danger of your gold country is also related to the future of these powerful people, why can't they come up with money to let you tide over the crisis?
Therefore, if I am your gold master, I will order all the magnates of your court to give money, and if you don't take it, you will be collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country! What's more, their money is useless to keep, once the Mongol army attacks the Yellow River, then they can only cheapen the Mongol Tartars! Therefore, if you refuse to pay the money, you will confiscate their family wealth, I don't believe that you are a 'huge' gold country, and you can't even make up the money for the 200,000 stone grain!
This official's words can only stop at the point, what should I do, you go back and ask your emperor! If I can, I will open a dag in Chang'an Mansion on Qinfeng Road, Tangzhou on Jingxi Road, and Xuzhou in Jingdong for you and me to trade! If not, forget it! Someone, send off! ”
After Gao Huaiyuan said that, he issued an order to expel the guests, and someone immediately came up and invited these envoys of the Jin State out...
And Gao Huaiyuan immediately said goodbye to Saban, Zhao Kui, Yue Kun and others, and embarked on the road back to Lin'an.
Before Gao Huaiyuan returned to Lin'an, the Tibetan forces near Sichuan were deeply shocked after receiving Saban's letter, they still had illusions before, thinking that the Song army was just a fluke to defeat the Mongol army once, and this time Saban wrote the strength of the Song army clearly, and the Song army did recover Qinfeng Road, and also defeated the Mongolian army that dragged mines, this matter can not change the fact, some Tubo forces know that they are closest to the Song Dynasty, and think that the Song Dynasty is also determined to subdue the Tubo, Once they don't surrender, they will immediately incur the conquest of the Song army, rather than being destroyed, it is better to surrender and pull down, not to mention that the Southern Song Dynasty is so rich that they will only take advantage of it, and they will not suffer anything. After understanding this matter, these Tubo forces near Sichuan immediately sent envoys to Lizhou City to submit the order, and handed over the maps, official names and the number of ordinary people in the jurisdiction that the Song Dynasty required them to submit, and asked Zhao Kui and Zhou Cong'an for the official title.
Naturally, Gao Huaiyuan didn't have to deal with these things personally, he left Zhao Kui and Zhou Cong'an a blank edict, agreed on the matter of separation, and let them be responsible for handling this matter.
And the Southern Song Dynasty's domestic reaction to this matter is also very enthusiastic, people with a little historical knowledge know that when they wanted to be in the Tang Dynasty, they were not able to subdue the Tubo Dynasty, and now they in the Southern Song Dynasty not only began to recover the lost territory, but also forced the Tubo people to come to Shun, this situation immediately made the Song people feel proud again, there are few people who read books, chant poems and lyrics to praise this matter, one after another good news, so that the Southern Song Dynasty people and others can't help but begin to re-establish confidence, looking forward to the Southern Song Dynasty as soon as possible to restore the Central Plains, Revive the prestige of the Han people...
At the time of the propaganda of the people's newspaper, over the years, Gao Huaiyuan has begun to deliberately weaken the concept of the Song Dynasty, and rarely sings praises for the current emperor Zhao Yun, at most, that is to say, Zhao Yun trusts Gao Huaiyuan, let Gao Huaiyuan lead the dynasty, and revitalize the national prestige, and in order to unite people's hearts, Gao Huaiyuan specially instructed Jia Qi to deliberately work the two words Han when the writers of those people's newspapers wrote articles, so that the Song people regarded themselves as Han people. Therefore, it gradually weakened the concept of loyalty to the Zhao family, which had been instilled in the folk for more than 200 years.
Public opinion and public opinion are in need of guidance, under the guidance of Gao Huaiyuan's deliberate work and investment at any cost, the people's newspaper has become the biggest tool to control public opinion in the Southern Song Dynasty, the time is short, it is easy to say, it is also the connivance of Zhao Yun at the beginning, in the past few years, the people's newspapers are all over the Southern Song Dynasty, and many people have gradually begun to sprout that the world should be taken by Gao Huaiyuan as a matter of course, and the emperor has gradually become only a symbol, in the eyes of the people is no longer so supreme, and even dispensable...
When Gao Huaiyuan returned to Lin'an by boat, he also learned from the mouth of his subordinates, that is, due to the sharp decrease in the number of scholars in the past two years, reading does not seem to be so popular among the people, but after the Song army won consecutive battles, many folk scholars began to realize that reading may not be able to seek glory and wealth, so many people began to abandon their pens and take the initiative to invest in the martial arts halls in various places to practice martial arts, and the number of scholars in Taixue is also decreasing, and there are more and more students of martial arts, and the quality is getting higher and higher. . .
This kind of thing makes Gao Huaiyuan very happy, China's most lacking is not people, but the spirit of good martial arts, with this situation, it shows that the Southern Song Dynasty people really began to taste the benefits brought to them by a strong army, the development of maritime trade and the development of vigorous civil commerce, have provided sufficient material guarantee for the Southern Song Dynasty to be strong, before they lacked the most belligerent factor, and now finally under the influence of Gao Huaiyuan and their gang, the Southern Song Dynasty people began to know that being a soldier is not a shameful thing, if you mix well, can also glorify the ancestors, so after a few years, more and more young people have applied for the martial arts hall and martial arts.
When passing through Chuzhou, Gao Huaiyuan met Meng Hui again, as soon as the two of them met, they were naturally indispensable, Meng Hui almost drooled and praised Gao Huaiyuan's exploits in recovering Qin Fenglu this time, and for forcing the Tubo tribes to surrender to the Great Song Dynasty, Meng Hui was even more praised, both of them were very happy, but after the happiness, Gao Huaiyuan retreated, leaving Meng Hui alone to talk secretly.
"Right now, the country of gold is no longer there! When do you plan to send troops to invade the Kingdom of Jin and recover the Central Plains? As soon as Meng Heng sat down, he immediately asked Gao Huaiyuan, Meng Hui hadn't used a knife or gun for several years, seeing that Huang Yan and Yue Kun had gone into battle and had enough addiction to fighting, and they had also made immortal achievements, Meng Hui couldn't help but be a little anxious, so he immediately asked about Gao Huaiyuan's plans.
"This matter is not in a hurry, after all, the Central Plains has been lost for more than a hundred years, and under the management of the Jurchens, the Central Plains is full of devastation, and it is not the time for us to immediately send troops to attack the Jin Kingdom! Don't be in a hurry about this!
Not only can we not capture the Central Plains now, but we also have to help the Jin people block the Mongol army! This is precisely because I am here to discuss this matter with you! I want to open a trench in Tangzhou and sell some grain to the Jin people to finance their military! After Gao Huaiyuan sat down, he shook his head and said to Meng Hui.
