With the introduction of a series of measures by the government, the situation in the disaster area has been eased, but the drought is still continuing, there is still no effective rainfall after May, and the large-scale reduction of grain production in many northern prefectures and counties has become settled, and the areas of Yanzhòng will have no harvest. Fortunately, Zhao Ta had a plan to transport grain from the south to the north on a large scale, and there was no phenomenon of starvation to death in states and counties due to lack of food.

Although the government has exempted taxes and forced labor, and there is relief grain to receive, the people in the disaster areas can not help but worry when they see that the disaster is still going on, and this year's grain harvest will mean that all the year's income will be lost, but people live not only to eat a full stomach, but also to have other expenses to wait, especially after the drought eases in the coming year, they also need to buy seeds and renovate farm tools, which all cost money, but now there is no way to get money.

Unexpectedly, the emperor thought of it for the victims, and the government of the affected people began to post notices to recruit people to build water conservancy, which was different from the past, not free labor, but paid, and on the principle of voluntary, not mandatory, three meals a day, and ten to fifteen wages per month. With this kind of good thing, how can the young and strong people stay still, so that the family can not only have one person's food left, but also have an income of dozens of yuan in a few months, which is enough for a year's expenses.

And this kind of good thing caused a storm, but not because they were not paid or fed, but because there were a few more blonde and blue-eyed 'Yiren' on the water conservancy site. Of course, they don't work as hard as everyone else, they are 'experts', responsible for guiding the people to dig canals and repair dikes. The people who make the machinery, thinking about the people of the big country, are called and drunk by a few people. Pointing fingers has naturally caused dissatisfaction among people.

At the beginning, everyone only knew that these Yi people were sent by the Ministry of Industry. I can bear it when I feel angry, but I just scold a few words in private. But as time went on and contact increased, everyone learned that these Yi people were from Arabia thousands of miles away, and they were not invited, but captured by the Great Song Dynasty sailors during their expedition to Persia. The people who learned the truth immediately quit, and the Great Song Dynasty had won successive victories in the war over the years, and they had seen a lot of prisoners, but those captives were the hardest and most tiring jobs. Now that it's the other way around, how can they be unacceptable and ask the government to change people......

In fact, these people were captured from Baghdad during the Seljuk expedition, but they were not ordinary captives, they were either well-known scholars, scientists, or skilled craftsmen. Zhao Ta sent them to Genyuan and various workshops according to their directors to teach them advanced technology. A group of surveying and mapping and water conservancy personnel were sent to the Ministry of Industry to study how to plan and build water conservancy facilities and excavate canals.

At this time, these Arab experts participated in the preliminary investigation and planning. And put forward their own opinions and repair methods, which were recognized by the Ministry of Engineering of the Great Song Dynasty, so they were all sent to various construction sites to serve as guides and supervise the construction. That's a good thing. However, it still caused criticism, especially those orthodox and conservative scholars who were very dissatisfied with the Yiren in power, and spoke out against it. Fueling the flames in the incident.

Zhao Ta did not feel strange after learning about what happened at the construction site, because historically. For a long time, the Central Plains region was the political, economic, and cultural center of the country, and this status created the superior psychology of the Central Plains culture to regard itself as orthodox. Albeit at a different historical stage. The Central Plains culture has been eroded and impacted by foreign cultures many times, but it has always maintained its foundation and core unchanged, and has never achieved real and in-depth integration with foreign cultures.

In this kind of cultural environment, the result is that people often greet the influx of foreign cultures with a cold attitude, and at the same time, they hold a belief in the bones of 'adapting to all changes with the same' and the mentality of 'transforming people with me', and not allowing 'humanizing me'. At this time, the Chinese believed that China's political system, economic system, etc. were better than those of foreign countries, and at the same time, in order to show their superiority and orthodoxy, and then looked down on other nationalities, and called them Yi.

From the Qin and Han dynasties to the Song Dynasty, in the academic circles of the entire Central Plains, there were mostly conservatives who maintained and promoted traditions, but few reformers who dared to break with traditions. At the same time, under the influence of orthodox conservative patriarchal concepts, people have a natural worship of so-called authority. In academic research, authorities are regarded as the leader, and they dare not dispute their views, so that everyone agrees. There is a lack of open-mindedness, and most of the directors have a repulsive attitude towards external things that are different from oneself, forming a strong conservative concept.

The spirit of stability and perseverance has a negative effect on the development of science and technology, which is easy to make talents develop a psychological attitude of self-respect, and the flexibility, agility and flexibility of people's thinking and behavior are relatively weak, and the endurance and tenacity to adapt to external changes are poor. In addition, it also affects the comparative understanding of talents in their own environment, resulting in a weak sense of time and rhythm, and a weak sense of crisis and urgency.

Today, the Central Plains people's sense of reform and innovation, risk and competition are relatively backward, therefore, under the constraints of this standard spirit, the Song people are not good at accepting new ideas and new concepts, hindering the generation and promotion of new science and technology. However, in the long run, this will inevitably lead to self-reliance in scientific research, and without innovation, it will be difficult to produce new talents and improve its own scientific and technological level.

Zhao Ta knew that although the Great Song Dynasty was known as the most advanced and advanced period of science and technology at that time, Western culture was ahead of the Great Song Dynasty in astronomy, mathematics, mechanical manufacturing, water conservancy, engineering, chemistry, smelting, etc., so he ordered the expeditionary force to plunder Western books and talents to improve the scientific and technological level of the Great Song Dynasty, so that the foreign can be used for China, and also let the Song people understand that there are more advanced civilizations in the world than them, and give some touch to those who are arrogant. Even if his approach was barbaric and contrary to the purpose of cultural exchange, it was the most convenient and quick way to do so.

Now that Zhao Ta has just released a little rumor, the conservative forces can't stand it anymore, and they start shouting that they want to trample on all the things brought by the Yi people and then stomp on their feet, so that they can't learn too much in the future. Therefore, Zhao Ta did not pay attention to this noise, and still let the Yi people preside over the construction of the project and grant official positions. Let them justifiably gain a foothold in the Great Song Dynasty.

Zhao Ta couldn't ignore the opposition, and he also did not use strong suppression. Instead, they used the media battlefield of the newspaper to wage war against conservative forces, so that the general public could understand the world they never knew about. Knowing that Da Song is not leading the world in all aspects. First of all, Zheng Qiao, a waiter of the Ministry of Works, published an article in the newspaper entitled "Raze for My Use," firing at the conservative forces and emphasizing the importance and necessity of absorbing advanced technology from the outside world.

As soon as Zheng Qiao's article was published, it quickly sparked a debate in the Great Song Dynasty academic circles, with some supporting and some opposing, and in order to get more people's support, both sides submitted articles to the "Imperial Xunbao". Zhao Ta knew that the more he argued, the clearer the truth, so he ordered Shangshu Province to open a new version to introduce the customs and technology of the Western world, and also provided a battlefield for both sides. Let them fight here, after all, it is more civilized to say that cultural fighting is always more civilized than martial arts!

Zhao Ta succeeded in attracting the attention of those conservative forces to the newspaper polemics, and without the harmony of these people, and the people's trust in the government, the construction site was able to continue. And Zhao Ta, a busy man, couldn't be idle, he cast his eyes on another battlefield, where there was already a sword and a sword, and he didn't die......

…………

A few years ago, Zhao Ta was motivated by the spirit of 'international humanitarianism'. A safe zone was set up on the border between the Song and Jin dynasties to house the Mugul, who had been cornered by the Jurchens. With the support of the Great Song Dynasty, Hebule led his troops to annex many small tribes, and the area of activity continued to expand, and the power gradually increased. However, Zhao Ta never included his territory in the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, allowing it to form an independent kingdom.

Of course, Zhao Ta did not expect him to have any good intentions, and in that period of dynastic change, the large and small kingdoms on the grassland could often be established majestically in just a few years. And often in a matter of years, it falls apart. Zhao Ta used the Mugyu to fill the power vacuum left by the Jurchen forces after they moved eastward, and the Great Song Dynasty had no time to look north. At the same time, it is also to prevent the Mughul from getting out of control and provide the soil for the emergence of that peerless hero.

After the situation in the Great Song Dynasty stabilized. Zhao Ta took the opportunity of the western expedition to Gaochang to quickly defeat the nomadic tribes entrenched in the north and south of the desert, and took Mobei into his arms, and the earlier demarcated safety zone became a cage for the tigers, so that the alliance with the Great Song Dynasty could not continue to expand. And living in this huge cage is not a tiger in the Mughul tribe, but another tiger raised by the Jin kingdom - the Tatar tribe.

During his lifetime, the Mughal and Tatar tribes had turned against each other, and after his death, he made his cousin, the Tachiu Urbu, the Khan of the Mughal tribe. Supposedly, the heir who can be chosen by Hebul is also a character, and one day last year, I don't know which of my baba children is wrong, or just want to have a strained relationship with the Tatar tribe, he actually went to the tribe of the enemy to choose one of their girls for himself to wife.

But instead of receiving the kindness of the child, the Tatar tribe felt insulted, why did he marry our girl? As a result, the groom did not succeed, but he was arrested by the Tatar tribe along with Naker (who accompanied him). As the saying goes, it is easy to capture a tiger, and the Tatars have the most eyes in the center of the grassland, they understand that their strength is inferior to that of the Mughuls, and there is a powerful Song Dynasty behind them, once they kill him, they will be saddled with an unrighteous name, and Liangzi will become deeper and deeper, and this feud will be endless, and it may also cause the consequences of strictness.

Because the Tatars knew that the Emperor of the Jin Kingdom had been humiliated by the Emperor of the Jin Kingdom, and because the Hebul Khan had killed his envoys and personal soldiers, and had evil thoughts towards the Mongols, the hatred for them had been deeply imprinted in the Emperor's heart, and the Tatars were under the protection of the Jin State at this time. So they adopted the practice of Sun Quan of Eastern Wu who killed Guan Yu but sent his head to Cao Wei, and sent the Khan to Huining Mansion in Shangjing, which was not only to kill people with a knife, but also to show merit to the master.

Emperor Wan Yan of the Jin State must not have seen the "Three Kingdoms", of course, a drunk man does not have Cao Cao's brain, let alone his fake 'burial head' to explain the doubts, he can't forget the new and old hatred accumulated over the years with the Mughal tribe, so according to the law of punishing the rebels, he ordered to nail the sweat of the child to the 'wooden donkey' with an iron nail. Of course, he did not do it without purpose.

Wan Yan thought that killing the Baba Boy would make the Tatars and the Mongols form a feud, and he killed the Baba Child, and the Mughal people would hate him, but these two people were tied up and sent by the Tatars, so the Mughal people should hate the Tatars even more. Since then, the two tribes have been in trouble, and Dajin has just profited from it. In fact, this is a very typical strategy to raze and raze, the Mughal people hate the Tatars, and the Tatars will have to ask for Dajin, so they are willingly tied together.

Although he is facing the threat of death, he is still not afraid of danger and sees death as if he were home. Before the execution, he said: "It was someone else who caught me, not you; It is neither decent nor worthy of praise for your brazen treatment of me in this way, and it is very unnoble. All the Mughal tribes are my kinsmen, and they will do their best to avenge me against you, and your land will not be at peace because of it. There is no doubt that they will rise up to pay you the blood debt for me. Therefore, it would be very unwise for you to kill me! ”

I not only laughed at Jin Xizong's brazenness, but also publicly stated that he would ask the Jin Dynasty to repay the blood debt. As a great emperor, of course, Wan Yan refused to show weakness, and let go of one of his Na Ke'er on the spot, and asked him to go back to report to the Mengwu Department. Before he left, the Khan of Alba told him, "Go to the Khuthu Thorn among the seven sons of the Emperor Hebul, and then to the Prince of Hedaan, one of my ten sons, and say, You have worn out five fingernails and worn out ten fingers, and you will avenge me." ”

'Polishing your nails, clenching your fists and dueling', this is the meaning of the Mongol oath. Before his death, this Na Keer conveyed to his children the resentment of the sworn master. When the news of the murder of the Khan reached the Mughuls, the Khedan Taishi and the other tribes held a meeting to avenge the blood of the Khan.

At that time, the Mongol tribes were actually caught in a vicious circle of hatred and revenge. Despite the conspiracy to usurp the throne, as well as the uneasiness and worry about the future, the hatred is shared by them. But they did not have time to reflect on their recklessness and recklessness, nor did they sum up the gains and losses of the tribe in politics, but turned the humiliation suffered by the tribe into hatred for the Tatar tribe......
