Two words, it's very simple, but Zheng Lang really can't think of it.

Say the way out, do it yourself, and correct some of the shortcomings of the Song Dynasty bit by bit.

Liang Shi said that the country is rich and not strong, yes, but it is already like this, and the supply of the Song Dynasty mainly comes from the southeast, and this alone is destined to have a huge cost of war. The Tang Dynasty fought the Eastern Turks, Hebei had supplies, fought Tibet, and Guanzhong had supplies, and then developed Longyou and fought the Western Turks, often more than half of which were local Hu soldiers to control Hu. However, in the Song Dynasty, supplies had to be transported from the southeast to the capital, and then from the capital to Hebei or Shaanxi, and then to the front line, resulting in high costs.

National wealth does not mean that the country is strong, but if you want the country to be strong, the country must be richer.

The establishment of the Ping'an Prison not only brought income to the state and opened up people's enterprising ideas, but also brought a large amount of money and metals and other mineral deposits. Not only gold, silver and copper, but also iron, tin, lead, mercury, as well as jade, coral, and local specialties, also made up for the demand for metals and luxury goods in the Song Dynasty.

We are reducing our own troops and gradually correcting the phenomenon of redundant troops.

We have established a law on water conservancy on farmland, presided over various large-scale water conservancy projects, increased grain yield per mu, met the people's demand for grain and cultivated land, and left room for the rapid growth of the population.

Cultivating Confucianism forcibly corrected the wrong direction of the development of Confucianism after the Han Dynasty, and made this Mohist-style Confucianism more aggressive, rather than more and more restrained.

The most important thing is to develop science, which is not visible now, and perhaps in a hundred or two hundred years, it will bring greater leaps and bounds to the entire Song Dynasty.

In addition, the improved exemption law, the armor protection law, the warehouse method, and the three-seven point system for mineral deposits. Banks, and so on, were all looking for a good way out for the Song Dynasty.

However, Fan Zhongyan said vaguely, obviously not referring to this.

Zheng Lang suddenly made a cold swing, what was Fan Zhongyan thinking? Could it be that he wants to establish a system like Zhao Kuangyi's brothers, and he can't let the military generals hold heavy power and treat the scholars well. Focus on internal governance. Do you want to set similar standards and rules for yourself?

Or simply a better system, a democratic parliamentary system, a democratic constitutional system. Socialism, Roman parliamentarism, caliphate in white?

Fan Zhongyan definitely didn't mean that.

That's the way out. Zheng Lang really didn't understand it, and wrote a letter to Fan Zhongyan and asked Fan Zhongyan, Xiwen, you make it clear.

He was disappointed, and before the letter reached Ying Tianfu, Fan Zhongyan died. So the word way out caused Zheng Lang a long time of trouble. Until much later......

Two saints, the undead saint is lost, and the lost saint dies.

When the news of Fan Zhong's drowning came out, the government and the opposition were in mourning. Wherever Fan Zhongyan has been in politics, the people have built shrines for Fan Zhongyan's portrait. Hundreds of people in the northwest gathered in silence and fasted for days. Zhao Zhen was also very sad, and he wrote a monument to praise the virtuous, and gave him the name Wenzheng.

But for Fan Zhongyan, Zheng Lang didn't know how to evaluate it. Later, Wang Anshi was also the same as Zheng Lang. Before Fan Zhongyan stepped onto the altar, Wang Anshi said that Fan Zhongyan was a teacher of the first generation, and everyone in the world should learn from Fan Zhongyan. On the other hand, in front of Song Shenzong, he criticized Fan Zhongyan for his reputation and friendship, thinking that the party was helping him, which was very bad customs.

This assessment is the fairest evaluation.

Virtue and open-mindedness not only make the people of the Song Dynasty worth learning. Hereafter generations will learn from it. However, Fan Zhongyan buried the hidden danger of party strife, which brought serious anger and impetuousness to the officialdom of the Song Dynasty.

The death of Fan Zhongyan also means that the era of Lu Fan is completely over and has entered a new era, the era of Zheng Lang, Han Qi, Pang Ji, Fu Bi and others.

End of February.

Even with so much labor, the project is not completely finished. In particular, some seawalls had to be intermittently delayed until winter before they could be fully completed, but the main works were all completed. As for the sweeping project, there will inevitably be, and after seeing the results, some barbarians will inevitably take the initiative to ask the government for support. This is a good phenomenon and must be supported. Zheng Lang instructed that the drawings of each state and county be posted on the wall outside the county office, making it open and transparent.

If water conservancy is to be managed, it must be done according to these scientific drawings. However, it is the joint efforts of the court and the people, rather than the leadership of the court, the court sends officials to guide, and the people themselves contribute money and efforts to develop, just like the development of Liangguang in the Ming and Qing dynasties.

Zhao Zhen gradually got lost, and the court began to become eventful, and Zheng Lang had to be cautious in doing things. After investing so much money, you have to let Liangguang see the return, in exchange for the ministers of the court to continue to support you. Therefore, the strategy was changed, and the actual consequences of this policy were definitely not developed by the common people, and only those big landlords could preside over water conservancy, which was tantamount to acquiescing in the creation of a large number of new big landlords in the two provinces. Especially some of the barbarians who have prestige and a little wealth in their hands. But the good thing is that since the summer, the finances of Guangdong South Road have begun to return, and the barbarians have become big landlords, seeing the benefits, the status is not lost, and the clansmen will take the initiative to cooperate with the imperial court, and the sinicization will be faster.

Write another memorab, and ask the imperial court to allow Cheng Shimeng, Cai Ting, and Yan Du to be transferred to Guangnan West Road.

The front officially shifted to Quang Nam West Road.

The money allocated by the imperial court has accumulated a part of it, and it has not dared to move, and before the people have not obtained the harvest, some money must be kept in their hands, even if it is excessive, it is far from being able to fill the investment of Guangnan West Road. In fact, this is also a large-scale water conservancy project that can be ranked among the best in history.

But unlike projects such as the Grand Canal, it is more fragmented.

If you add the financial income of Guangnan East Road, the small amount of appropriation from the imperial court in the early stage is close to 40 million yuan, accounting for one-third of the total annual income of the imperial court, and at this time, the Song Dynasty occupies at least 60 percent of the world's economic income, that is, one-fifth of the world's total annual income, and smashes it on Guangnan East Road at once.

Or another way of calculating, the Song Dynasty can not be calculated, the value of a horse in the Khitan is only about ten yuan, if it is not for the Song Dynasty to inflate the price of horses, it will be lower, you can buy four million horses, in fact, the Khitan statistics are only a total of one million horses, plus no more than two million horses that cannot be counted. If you buy sheep, you can buy seven or eight thousand sheep in Khitan. If possible, so much money can be purchased by the Khitan, and almost all the large livestock of the Khitan can be bought.

The monarchs and ministers of the Tang Dynasty did not eat or drink, and the total income of the state for two years. The sum of the eight years of state revenue. The sum of the state fiscal revenues of the Western Xia for twenty years.

At its peak, it employed nearly one million people, and in history, Yang Guang only used more than 1.2 million people to repair the Grand Canal. Of course, the two are not easy to compare, it is a canal that was forcibly built by the people in a forced labor situation, the time is longer, and the amount of work may be ten times that of it.

More than 220,000 households have been relocated, but there are none. There are probably no more than 1440,000 households. There are nearly 900,000 people, but there are none, about 800,000. This number of immigrants in history is only Cao Cao's migration to the common people of Hanzhong. The immigrants of Chang'an and Luoyang in the Sui and Tang dynasties, and the spontaneous immigrants of the people who went south in the Western Jin Dynasty can be compared. The Song Dynasty also immigrated. The people of Hedong were moved into Jingxi Road, and there were quite a few, tens of thousands of households, but they were divided into several times, and each time it was only a few thousand households, which was far from being comparable with the number of immigrants this time.

None of the numbers are the highest in history, but they are comparable to their predecessors, and each time they have achieved their goals at the cost of many deaths. But this time it was different, there were dead people. The old and the sick are inevitable, but the people do not complain and give countless people life.

So much money to spend. There is also an invisible benefit. Not only the wages of the common people, but also the living utensils, tools, boats, vehicles, building materials, etc., increased the income of many related people, and some artisan households directly entered the fourth-class households from extreme poverty, even if they were paid, there was not enough money. Most of them used grain and cloth instead of distribution, which also led to an increase in the income of many people. Of course, the relevant workshop owners and merchants reaped the most, and even the imperial court levied some more or less commercial taxes.

There is no GDP to say, otherwise nearly 40 million yuan will be smashed, creating related industries and associated industries, and increasing the wealth of at least 100 million yuan. It's just that this wealth flowed into the people, and the court did not make much profit.

But what is the meaning of governing the country, it is not that the court is rich, but in the end, it is to make the people rich.

A lot of bad things happened in between.

But in the future, many people can also see that the country will inevitably increase its income, many roads will be opened, Han households will be congested, and the two Guangxi will strengthen their ties with the imperial court. It alleviates the densely populated pressure of Fujian Road, West Zhejiang Road and West Jiangnan Road.

At this time, Zheng Lang got a piece of good news.

Taking advantage of the southeast wind, the big food merchants returned to Guangzhou and entered the Yujiang estuary, and many big food merchants were rubbing their eyes and becoming unrecognizable. Countless stone embankments and stone dams suddenly appeared on the originally flat coastline, and after they came ashore, they were even more unrecognizable, and many swamps and tidal flats were turned into cultivated land, and the people were cultivating them.

This is not what they care about, they came to Guangzhou Port one by one and handed over one of the most important things to Wei Qiang, pyrethrum. In fact, it can be faster, for example, when Zheng He went to the West, the shortest time was only one year, but this year was different, he visited dozens of countries, delayed a lot of time, and actually spent less than half a year on the voyage.

However, the ships of the Great Food Merchants are different from Zheng He's ships and some of the fast boats of the Ping'an Prison, in order to save costs, they have few people on board, and they must rely on the wind to sail and wait for the monsoon to sail, so the sailing time is one and a half years and a half. Some of the invaluable cargo in the safety supervision is mostly only sailed once a year. But a single round trip to precious metal deposits, jade, and spices can often be completed in a few months. Without him, there are many people on the boat when the wind is headwind, and he spares no manpower to lower the sails, row the boat with a large oar, and go against the wind.

In the Song Dynasty, there were also merchants who went to the Great Food and various places in East Africa, but they were not as familiar with the local products as the Great Food Merchants, and they did not know the situation in the surrounding areas of the Mediterranean, so they entrusted them to the Great Food Merchants. It still came along the monsoon, but it was very fast to arrive in Guangzhou in March, and the time spent looking for pyrethrum was very fast.

It cost more than 10,000 yuan.

In the past six months, several bigwigs in Liangguang have spent numb money. Zheng Lang said that it is very important, so let's spend it.

Immediately transport the seeds to Guizhou and plant them in Guizhou.

All don't know what it means.

The Jiaozhi envoy arrived belatedly, and as Zheng Lang expected, there was a dispute within Jiaozhi about whether to use troops and two Guangzhou. So he sent an envoy to Guizhou to test Zheng Lang. The messenger who came was Zuo Xiaowei's general Minoru and the commander of the palace in front of the palace.

Hearing that the second envoy was coming, Zheng Lang gave Zhang Kang a piece of information.

This is information that the scouts of the special service battalion have taken a long time to spy on.

The public information is that Yu Jing asked Jiaozhi to send troops to help, and Jiaozhi agreed, although he did not send troops, but many Vietnamese historians later considered it a disaster. Cutting off Nong Zhigao's retreat, the Song Dynasty will settle down Liangguang, and Jiaozhi will lose the opportunity to expand northward, which of course makes the Vietnamese regret more than that.

But what about the real situation?

The scout finally brought some information from Di Qing before he went south, and Nong Zhigao rioted, and Li Dezheng welcomed it. But Nong Zhigao suddenly raised troops, Jiaozhi was not ready, domestic disputes, and some tribes rebelled, Nong Zhigao arrogated the throne for the ruler can not be tolerated, if you admit that Nong Zhigao's approach is right, in the future, Jiaozhi ministers, major tyrannical leaders can casually cede the land and claim the king. In the midst of indecision, Nong Zhigao retreated from Guangzhou.

I heard that Di Qing went south and did two things, the first was to prepare a rear in Temo Road, and the second was to win over some local heroes and support him. This is public information. There is also a secret request, please send troops to support it. In fact, when Nong Zhigao rebelled, Jiaozhi had already sent troops to the border to sit and watch.

Yu Jing sent an envoy to ask Jiaozhi to send troops, and it really happened, it was not Li Zongdao, but this Wu Er. The 20,000-strong Jiaozhi army slowly came to the border, ready to support Nong Chi Gao at any time, and the Vietnamese official army was stationed in Lu Village on the border. However, Nong Zhigao's mother had a dispute with his wife, and Nong's wife Nangqin advocated that the Li Dynasty officials and troops should take over Nong Zhigao, but Anon was skeptical and decided to let the Li Dynasty officials strengthen the defense of the city, stationed on the right bank of the Pengjiang River (south), and mobilized the militia for a decisive battle.

After Zheng Lang received this information, he immediately reported it to the imperial court.

is not deliberately looking for trouble with Yu Jing and justifying Di Qing's practices, but this matter must be recorded in the annals of history, so that future generations will not be able to make it difficult to shout that Nong Zhigao is a national hero every day.

Jiaozhi has always been very uneasy about Nong Zhigao's ambitions and usurpation, and Anon did not allow Jiaozhi's army to cross the Pengjiang River, so Wu Er has always stood still. Wu Er didn't expect Nong Zhigao to be defeated so quickly, and without Jiaozhi reinforcements to join, Quy Nhon Pu Di Qing quickly defeated Nong Zhigao. Nong Zhigao took the remnants to forcibly cross the Beiwang River and fled to Qinzhou, hearing that his mother did not let the Jiaozhi army go north, and said loudly: "Mother, you are not right, you should eat...... (The authenticity is close to 90%)"

The Song army pursued closely behind, especially those who rode very fast, Nong Zhigao's brother-in-law led his troops to arrive at a critical moment, and after the heroic break, he resisted the Song army to the end, so that Nong Zhigao finally fled into Qinzhou City. Heroes are heroes, Di Qing buried Nong Zhigao's brother-in-law in Rongbu afterwards, and did not cut off the head to invite credit.

Nong Zhigao returned to Qinzhou, saw that he could not defeat the Song army, wanted to build another cave, or drag Jiaozhi into the water, sent a letter to ask to meet Wu Er, Wu Er carefully analyzed the situation, the Song army was strong, Nong Zhigao passed the battle of Qu Nhenpu, the backbone disappeared, and he sent his troops to defeat more and win less, and said to Nong Zhigao's envoy: "Tell him, wherever he wants, I can handle it when I live here." ”

It's okay for you to wander around on Guangnan West Road, or you can escape to Dali, or you can stick to Qinzhou City, don't run away from us.

The city of Qinzhou was broken, and Wu Er retreated and returned to Thang Long. But I don't say this to the Song Dynasty, we marched into Pengjiang, not to help Nong Zhigao, but to help your Song Dynasty. That's why you don't want to go back to the 20,000 yuan you gave us.

Look at the stupid things Yu Jing did!

But Yu Jing can't be blamed, most of the soldiers led by Wenchen are this kind of virtue.

This is the truth of Jiaozhi sending 20,000 reinforcements to "aid" the Song Dynasty.

After Di Qing saw this information in the Privy Council, he felt a little afraid, if it weren't for the fact that these two wolves had their own tricks, Quy Nhon Pu put aside their prejudices and joined forces, and the outcome would be unpredictable. Even if you win, it will be a miserable victory.

The second piece of news is very brief, Chen Nim once led the people of the five counties of Jiaozhi to dig a port.

Zhang Kang finished reading it and said: "One of these two is proficient in military affairs, and the other is proficient in water conservancy. ”

Zheng Lang nodded, needless to say, looking at today's two Guangzhou, one has to look at the military of the two Guangzhou, and the other has to look at the water conservancy of the two Guangzhou. Li Dezheng sent two insiders to take a look at the actual situation of the two Guangzhous along the way.

He also said: "Gongshou, this time the messenger will be handed over to you." I'll give you two tasks, the first is to drag the cochin and not let them have a seizure this year. The second is to make them feel some contempt, so that they will attack our Song Dynasty next spring. ”

Zhou Xin and Yu Jing were a little dumbfounded when they heard it on the side, this is really a strange task. Is it a task, or is it deliberately making things difficult? (To be continued.)
