Zheng Lang wrote a plan, not to send a dry Chinese book, but to a newspaper.

Zhao Zhenchao celebrities gathered, each with its own governing characteristics, Zheng Lang also has a characteristic, less talk and more do, do more and say more, rarely write a fold, whether it is in the book or in the place, all year round, I can't see Zheng Lang write a few folds. Unless the strategy is beyond his jurisdiction or is likely to cause controversy, the doubts will be dismissed.

The newspaper is still a newspaper, Zheng Lang wants to expand the scale, but he is afraid of trouble, so he did not make a sound, because the literati write many articles, and the ten-day magazine is changed to a five-day issue, with a high circulation, at most a page with a circulation of nearly 100,000 copies, and a minimum of 20,000 or 30,000 copies, even Zhao Zhen attaches great importance to the newspaper, and regards it as the throat of public opinion in the imperial court. However, due to traffic factors, the affected areas are still major towns, and in the south, there are very few newspapers transported. There are only a few dozen copies in Hengzhou, either Guangzhou and Guizhou, when the Di newspaper buys and comes back to read. However, in the north and southeast, the influence of newspapers increased on the 20th.

Zheng Lang's plan was not a twist, but caused the people of the whole country to reflect, so it was sent to the newspaper.

The split is a sentence, under the whole world, it is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's minister.

And then write about the backwardness of the South.

When it comes to Cheng Huan's trip to Sichuan, Cheng Huan is right to go to Sichuan, and Wang Quanbin did not do well in some of the methods when he eliminated Hou Shu, so the imperial court has always wanted to make up for it. In recent years, the great governance of Sichuan, although the people of Sichuan have been industrious, has been a rich place since ancient times, and it is also related to the careful management of the imperial court. What the imperial court did was right, Sichuan is not as good as the southeast, there is no good transportation, and the materials are transported to Beijing, which can be transported, and the freight is too high and not worth it. But whether it is worth it or not, Sichuan is the land of the Song Dynasty, and it must be carefully governed. But isn't the south the domain of the imperial court?

Since the founding of the Song Dynasty, the technology of attaching importance to internal governance has been leaping forward, and the people are getting better, but what about the vast area from Xiangshui to the west? It's not that it's getting better, on the contrary, it's even more backward, and in some places it's not even as good as the Tang Dynasty, reverting to the Han Dynasty, and even the ancient situation of the Spring and Autumn Period. Why? The imperial court didn't want to make trouble, so it let the major barbarian chiefs run it themselves, and even spent money to buy peace. There is no good work, no. In order to open up their own wealth, the barbarian chiefs imprisoned the people even more and fooled the people, resulting in the current backward situation. The ancestors used the jade axe to draw the Dadu River and did not want to operate the southwest, referring to Dali and Jiaozhi, one is that the ancestor (referring to Zhao Kuangyin) does not want to open the border too much and hurt the people, and the other is that the ancestor has limited resources as an opponent. Doesn't it mean that even Jinghu South Road, Kuizhou Road and Lingnan are not in business, and as the people of the Great Song Dynasty, how can I bear to see them living like this?

In ancient times, the criminal officials were moved to Lingnan, because of the backward production due to the current situation, and the Tang Dynasty was still like this, but the Tang Dynasty still had backward things such as tribal slaves and maids, and the Song Dynasty was gone? We can no longer hold on to the ancient ideas and exile bad officials to Lingnan at every turn, so that Lingnan officialdom will be in darkness. In fact, the imperial court has always ignored the south, and does not want to re-collect the people here, but it can be implemented, because these corrupt officials and corrupt officials, the people's living pressure is still heavy. Do the people of the south have to be inferior in this royal land?

In the end, I wrote one thing, the dispute between the north and the south.

Li Yu of the Southern Tang Dynasty lived a rotten life, a group of ministers were vassals, Zhao Kuangyin said after seeing it, the northern minister was pure, the southern minister was cunning, and Kou Zhun also said something similar. In fact, if this is the case, Xie An and his ilk in the Eastern Jin Dynasty can be described as cunning, there are countless famous ministers from the south in the court, and they are all cunning ministers? Since the Song Dynasty has been mixed up for a day, can it continue to hold this remark and make the southern people and courtiers feel inferior? How to cure intolerance and how to take it if it is not given? On the one hand, they laughed at the cunning of the people in the south, and on the other hand, they collected the largest tax of the imperial court from Jianghuai and Zhejiang, which is incomprehensible!

The focus of this article is to get the imperial court not to be prejudiced against the south, including Lingnan. The practical significance is far more than that, and later during the party dispute, the minister headed by Sima Guang pointed to Wang Anshi and denounced it, you are a faction in the south, cunning and frivolous, unconvinced, this is what Taizu said! In the end, the Shuo Party, the Luo Party, the New Party and the Shu Party were formed. …,

It would be wrong to draw a conclusion to these regional party struggles in advance.

But it is not the main argument of this policy, but another thing, can we continue to regard Lingnan as the boundary of the three regardless of the three things as before, and continue to exile bad officials to Lingnan to fish and eat the people?

Although Zheng Lang's policy was published in the newspaper, it caused a great sensation.

The court also got a piece of news that was not contained in the Di newspaper, that is, the northwest.

Most of the Northern Blockade Bu defected to Western Xia, and the Khitan was terrified and sent officials to suppress it. However, Western Xia secretly helped the army, and the battle was inseparable. When the deep winter came, the Khitan withdrew its army, the Western Xia and the Northern Resistance did not do a good job, and they have been living in the shadow of the Khitan for many years, focusing on self-preservation, and did not dare to have too many extravagant hopes. Otherwise, the Khitan will be under more pressure if the army rises at both ends. It was this fear that made the Khitans breathe. After months of conquest, some of the Northern Zubu tribes resurrendered to the Khitans. However, the matter of the northern obstruction of divination was not resolved, and the Western Xia people were "at large", and some of them fought. This battle, according to conservative estimates, will not have a result in two or three years. The Khitan will definitely be the winning side, but it will be a pyrrhic victory. For the Song Dynasty, the monarchs and ministers breathed a sigh of relief.

What did the Song Dynasty give?

Some scouts from the spy battalion, some money and silk, these money and silk were not enough for Zheng Lang to repair one-third of the roads in Hunan. It's just the previous plan, once Meishan is settled, the cost will be higher, and there will be more roads to build!

and Zheng Lang's good foundation for the Song Dynasty, although he left the court, his influence in the court still exists.

After reading Zheng Lang's strategy, Zhao Zhen and Pang Ji were a little apprehensive, maybe Zheng Lang was right, Lingnan can no longer be governed like Lingnan before, but where will the officials who made mistakes be exiled? Moreover, who wants to go to Lingnan as an official if there is no mistake?

The answer is in Zheng Lang's heart, he didn't say it, and now it has no effect, and it will take a few years to say it.

Zheng Lang continued to stay in Hengzhou, there were a lot of miscellaneous things, but in fact, Zheng Lang didn't have much thought to ask, is the future of Jinghu South Road important, or is a certain farmer's mountain field, or a few fruit trees important? But he is in Hengzhou, which is already very important.

In the Ming Dynasty, Hai Rui went to Nanjing, and all the rich officials hid the exquisite silk together, wearing plain clothes, afraid of you, Hai Boss, you are a fierce man carrying a coffin, and we can't afford to hide.

The Zheng Lang effect is similar, and even more powerful than Hai Rui. After all, Hai Rui is not as powerful as Zheng Lang, and he does not have Zheng Lang's prestige as the emperor's favor and the world's people.

Ouyang Xiu is so good, in the face of Zheng Lang, he is also afraid of three feet, I don't recruit you, do it! Besides, these petty officials on Jinghu South Road. As several officials were dealt with successively, all the officials suddenly became good citizens, and when the New Year's Day came, C went to the countryside one by one, visited the people, asked for warmth, and was short of money. It's very smart, it's okay to ask for supplies, don't fish the people.

In a very small number of areas, the people were accustomed to being harshly stripped by the officials, and suddenly saw the officials with flowers on their faces and a spring breeze, all of which were inexplicable, and then they were flattered and at a loss.

When Li Suzhi and other officials heard about this, they shook their heads one by one and were speechless, not knowing what to say.

This is known as the seismic effect.

But Zheng Lang will not be in Hengzhou for too long, and with the coming of very bad news.

Yu Jing offered a more confused strategy, Qin Qing led the army very close to Pennsylvania, he wanted to grab the merit, but he didn't dare to force the war, even if he was given the right, he didn't have the guts, he didn't understand military affairs. But there is a way, who is Nong Zhigao most afraid of? It was not the Song Dynasty, but Jiaozhi, who killed his father and many relatives, and he didn't dare to say anything. Can we ask Li Dezheng to lead the army to unite and jointly crusade against Nong Zhigao. …,

Thinking that as soon as Li Dezheng's army came, Nong Zhigao would also be wiped out, so he would not do anything with Di Qing. He sent an envoy to Annan to pay 20,000 yuan in cash, and then prepared the grain and grass needed by 10,000 troops near Yongzhou, and promised to reward another 30,000 yuan after the deed was completed.

And he also has a set of rhetoric, Jiaozhi was originally going to pay tribute this year, but his subordinates Nong Zhi was rebellious, the road was impassable, and he had moved Wen Qi to beg for thieves, and the court had not reported it for a long time. Judging by the sincerity of its offer, even if it cannot exterminate the thief party, it can also make it separate from each other.

Is there such a thing, yes, Nong Zhigao, a rebel, had a headache in the Song Dynasty, and Li Dezheng also had a headache. He also wanted to annihilate Nong Zhigao, and by the way, he led his troops to test the reality of the Song Dynasty in Lingnan. But Zhao Zhen is not a fool, some of the small actions made by Li Dezheng in the south, Zhao Zhen can also see it clearly, but he is forced to have Khitan in the north and Western Xia in the west, and the Song Dynasty has no energy to turn to the south. But now the situation is different, the Khitan and the Western Xia are in full swing, and the monarchs and ministers of the Song Dynasty look at the information sent by the spy battalion every day, just like reading a wonderful serialized novel, and I want to read the following after reading the above. The Song Dynasty also had a fine 20 points and a part of the center of gravity turned to the south. Therefore, Li Dezheng sent a horse to bear Li Zongdao's 20,000 soldiers, and entered the king by water to help the thief, which was very polite, but Zhao Zhen did not agree.

Therefore, Yu Jing further persuaded that Jiaozhi is goodwill, don't worry too much about them, they just want to run the south, there is no ill will towards our dynasty, it is better to listen to its troops, if it hinders its goodwill, once it gets angry, it will secretly help Nong Zhigao, just like the Western Xia secretly sent troops to help the north to block divination, and the difficulty of annihilating Nong Zhigao will increase. After receiving the request of Yu Jing's envoy, Li Dezheng was overjoyed, okay, okay, I changed my mind, I will send 50,000 soldiers and horses to help Song destroy Nong Zhigao.

Di Qing was very annoyed by Yu Jing's small actions, he was a martial artist, clumsy, and only told one truth. Li Dezheng's claim that he would send 50,000 infantry and 1,000 cavalry to help him may not be true. With the national strength of Jiaozhi, how much does it cost to use 50,000 soldiers and horses? Moreover, the fake soldiers are on the outside to eliminate the inside, which is not my benefit. A Nong Zhigao ravages Erguang, can't be begged, fake barbarian soldiers, barbarians are greedy and forgetful, so they start chaos, how can they be controlled? Either the number of soldiers and horses is fake, in order to covet the money of the Song Dynasty. Either it's true, the problem is very, very big, it seems that a large number of soldiers and horses have gathered in Pennsylvania, all of them are miscellaneous troops, and even Nong Zhigao can't deal with them. He brought soldiers and horses over, only 5,000 people, and 10,000 soldiers and horses at sea, before he arrived, Zheng Lang brought 10,000 people, but he had to leave 8,000 people on Jinghu South Road, and only 2,000 soldiers and horses could enter Lingnan. These 12,000 soldiers and horses have only been overseas, and they are relatively more accustomed to the humid and hot weather in the south than the northern soldiers, and they are used to deal with various cottage barbarians, and their combat effectiveness is not strong. Pennsylvania's soldiers and horses are inferior to Nong Zhigao, and his 17,000 men and horses are inferior to Jiaozhi's 50,000 troops. Zhengda Guangming entered the Song Realm, once there was bad intentions, how could it be done?

Di Qing is bright, and Zheng Lang is even more bright.

A piece of music is written, and only one story is told on the fold, and a hunter is good at imitating the sound of a group of beasts with the sound of a flute. Lu encountered a jackal and climbed to the tree, so he played the flute like a wolf, causing a wolf, and the wolf drove the jackal away, and continued to be trapped in the tree, attracting tigers...... Of course, all the enemies were driven away one after another, but the enemies left behind became stronger and stronger, and the final fate can be imagined.

This is the most painful lesson in the history of the Song Dynasty, the introduction of gold to destroy Liao, the introduction of Meng to destroy Jin, as you wish, but what is the final result!

Then he wrote a letter to reprimand Yu Jing, Jun prides himself on being outspoken, and once spit on the emperor's cheek because of his admonition, why is he competing with a martial artist!

What a ploy is purely ill-intentioned. Directly unveil Yu Jing's careful eyes.

But Zheng Lang also made Yu Jing afraid, after all, Di Qing was the second coach at this time, and he was afraid that Yu Jing would make a name for himself, so he ordered the three armies to obey Di Qing's command, and no one was allowed to mobilize the army or point fingers. …,

I also wrote to Li Dezheng, this is the affairs of our dynasty, you don't have to bother. As for the 20,000 yuan brought by Yu Jing, Zheng Lang was a little painful, how much money did he have to invest in the development of the south? But it should be embezzled by officials.

With the hasty arrangement of Hengzhou's affairs, regardless of the imminent arrival of Yue'er, he led two thousand soldiers and horses to the south again.

Gradually arriving in Guiyang, a big man with a dark face stopped them and said that he wanted to see Zheng Lang.

The soldiers did not dare to stop them, and people often came to complain about their grievances, and it became a practice for Zheng Lang to receive them one by one. In fact, Zheng Lang himself doesn't have much energy to care about the people's wrongs, the simple truth, is it to pick watermelons or sesame seeds?

Sometimes I was forced to start by water. Zunran, the subordinates didn't know that Zheng Lang existed this idea.

Zheng Lang came to the front, saw this big man, suddenly turned over and dismounted, helped him up, and said, "Qi Lin, it's hard to die." ”

Seeing Zheng Lang's action, Sima Guang's eyes lit up, and he thought of one thing, the spy battalion had been established for a long time, and all the scouts had dispersed. When it was first established, it was inconspicuous, thinking that training an army, and in the end, some courtiers faintly knew the truth, and they could no longer see this battalion of soldiers, and it became one of the top secrets in the court. After all, many things can't be exposed.

This big man is probably one of the spies of the spy battalion.

Dahan stood up, respectfully took out a stack of documents from his arms, and said, "This is the information brought by his subordinates. ”

Zheng Lang nodded, with an approving look in his eyes. The special service battalion has made great contributions, but it has also suffered heavy sacrifices, and more than 20 soldiers have been sacrificed for various reasons. Even if he was alive, he had endured countless hardships everywhere, and said gently: "Qi Lin, come with me into Guiyang City to rest and rest......

Then fiddling with the paperwork, Sima first glanced at it curiously, but after seeing the three words, his face changed greatly.

Sumaozhou!

The Song Dynasty was called Su Maozhou, and the actual Jiaozhi people called Suzhou and Maozhou, which were two states. In the south of the border between Qinzhou and Yongzhou (the Vietnamese side of the border of Gaoping and Langshan), it was under the jurisdiction of Jiaozhi at this time, but like Qiyuan Prefecture and Guangyuan Prefecture, it was a place of rippling, and it was difficult to say that it was Jiaozhi or the Song Dynasty.

Ordinary ministers may be very unfamiliar with these three words, but Sima Guang has a good memory and knows its history very well. After Li Huan escaped the extermination of the Song Dynasty, he thought that the Song Dynasty was weak and could be bullied, but in fact, the Song Dynasty was trapped in Li Jiqian and the Khitan, and the situation at that time was indeed 20 distracted from the south. A small number of soldiers cannot be used to exterminate Jiaozhi, and it is not worth using too many soldiers. So Li Huan obstructed the mountains and seas, repeatedly harmed by Kou, lost the courtesy of the vassals, once led a hundred warships to Kou Ruhong Town, plundered the people and property, and then the barbarian Kou Yongzhou of Sumao Prefecture was under the management of Luzhou (northeast of Langshan, on the Vietnamese side of the border). Zhao Kuangyi was powerless in the south, and used the policy of appeasement to the south, without asking for guilt. During the time of Zhenzong, the people of Jiaozhi served the field with its leader Huang Qingji hundreds of people to vote, and some officials had the intention of opening up the territory and wanted to take the opportunity to recover Jiaozhi, but Song Zhenzong did not agree and sent these Vietnamese back.

Vietnam Li Li changed the dynasty, Huang Qingji, Huang Xiuman and other more than 1,000 people did not obey the rate, killed the new clan, and defected to Lianzhou again, Guangzhou Zhizhou Ling Ce wrote a letter to send this Tao 2,000 people to cross the toe, with Qingji and others as the vanguard. Zhenzong continues to oppose it, it is not right to blindly be gentle, but this time the opposition is correct, if you want to eliminate Jiaozhi, what are 2,000 people going to do? When the dim sum people are not enough to eat.

In the era of Renzong, 600 people including Chen Gongyong, a native of Vietnam County, were attached, and Li Dezheng openly sent more than 1,000 troops into the country to arrest him, but Zhao Zhen still adhered to the policy of Huairou and sent them back, only the edict warned Li Dezheng not to kill Chen Gongyong and others. At this time, Zheng Lang had gradually entered the center, and he knew that if he didn't care, the mess in the country was too bad to be distracted. Until Li Dezheng sent troops to capture the city (Nanyue, Li Yue only owned the territory of Beiyue in the area of Jiaozhou in the Tang Dynasty, but Zhancheng had been subject to China before, so ancient China also regarded Zhancheng as one of its core vassals), just Du Qi was in the south as a transit envoy, so he ordered Du Qi to do 16 fortresses since the Tang Dynasty, and sent troops to defend it to prevent Jiaozhi from suddenly invading.

At that time, there were Yongzhou officials who lured more than 3,000 people from Wei Shaosi and Wei Shaoqin in Sumao Prefecture to live in the interior, and they had already fled to the Song Dynasty.

So after seeing these four words, Sima Guang's face was pale.

Nong Zhigao is right to quell the rebellion, even if he takes the opportunity to enter Guangyuan Prefecture and Qiyuan Prefecture, but if he starts the idea of Su Maozhou, it may cause a big mess. He said worriedly: "Zheng Xianggong, Su Mao'er can't." ”

Zheng Lang looked into the distance and muttered, "I know I can't, but sometimes I can't tolerate it anymore." ”
