The people take food and clothing as the sky, and the food and clothing are based on arable land, water conservancy and agricultural tools, Song Jiu wrote a lot, and Zhao Pu's scribes remembered a lot. But education cannot be ignored, Song Jiu persuaded Qin Zaixiong to set up a academy in Chenzhou, not every official is willing to take out this heart, and not every chief is Qin Zaixiong, this example cannot be a common example. Song Jiu overturned the proposal in the previous letter and proposed a new method, no need for the imperial court to pay much money, there are not many scholars in Hunan, this is not a workshop, there are still some, just like Song Jiu, the government pays a little money, builds a few houses for the scholars, sets some tables and chairs, gives some chalk blackboards, pen, ink, paper and inkstones, and gives some subsidies to the scholars. Let them teach the villagers children to read at home. I don't want to produce many writers, I just want more people to be able to read a few words and calculate some simple arithmetic. Even some embarrassed scholars can move them to safe areas of the barbarians, set aside some arable land, give them some farm tools, build houses again, and give them some subsidies, so that the embarrassment of these scholars can be solved, and the education can be popularized to the barbarians. This is not a lot of money, although the speed will be a little slower, but like an infectious disease, it will eventually form a benign infection that will become more and more extensive. There is a reason with the current imperial court to develop Tanzhou, which is to lead the face with one-side. This is to take the piece with the dot, and then bring the surface with the piece.

Then there's business.

Several bigwigs talked about this and that, and Song Jiu also thought that there were difficulties. Then I went down to see that the imperial court did not encourage commerce, and in fact, the barbarian tribes also had commerce, including some barbarians who transported goods out and took the initiative to exchange some necessary goods with Han Hu or Shuman to bring back to the mountains.

Then Song Jiu thought about it.

This is a spontaneous business activity, and several key officials in Hunan will certainly not prohibit it, so is there a benign inducement?

After the most Lu also came up with a way, he began to fall into a misunderstanding, thinking that the mutual market was placed at the junction of Shengman and Hanhu, mainly now the Song Dynasty did not have a large-scale mutual market arrangement, the Khitan banned trade, or the northwest, where Song Jiu had not been to once, and the imperial court did not guide, it was also a spontaneous commercial activity.

Song Jiu's method was not to put the mutual market in the border place, but in the inland area, such as in the south of Hunan, outside the cities of Hengyang, Leiyang, and Chenzhou, so that it could not be too far from the city gate, first, it would not endanger the safety of the city, and second, if there was an accident, it could be withdrawn into the city in time. This idea has a lot of similarities with the idea of mutual markets in the later Song Dynasty, such as the mutual market between Lingnan and Dali in Yongzhou. But there are still many flaws, it would be good for Song Jiu to think out in advance, where would he think so long-term.

As long as these are done well, plus some small measures, the national problem and the road problem will be solved.

Song Jiu has seen many tribes, each form is different, and he can actually see the primitive and equal way of life, it must be a backward mode of production, but people think it's good, what should I do? There are also some who do their own work, electing a chief to lead the chief, and obeying the chief's orders, and this kind is the most. The last was serfdom. There really is, especially in the depths of Kuixia, but where Song Jiu didn't dare to enter. There is a tenancy system, and there are very few. In order to find out why this situation occurred, various officials said that the mountains were high and the forests were deep, and life was closed. In fact, in other words, there is a lack of communication, a lack of communication. The people of Dongzhai are hungry and know that they go to the river to catch fish to satisfy their hunger, but the people of Xizhai do not understand, thinking that the fish are poisonous, and would rather eat the bark of Guanyin soil than dare to eat fish. But as long as you communicate with each other, is the real Guanyin soil more delicious than fish?

Song Jiu subdivided the situation of the barbarians in Hunan again, the scale of the tribes in the south is relatively small, there are various reasons for this, it may be that the Southern Han Dynasty and the original Hunan several regimes at the junction, the two sides attach great importance to it, under the impact of the two major regimes, except for some large tribes in the depths of Wuling, the scale of the remaining tribes can only become smaller, or other reasons, this is not what Song Jiu can know. But it can't be underestimated, if someone gathers up, there are many barbarian tribes in Wuling, and the impact will also be great.

North and South Jiangman, Qin Zaixiong's control is mainly Beijiangman, and his influence on Nanjiangman is not very great, but it doesn't matter, where is far from the core area of Hunan. The main thing is still Beijiangman. Qin Zaixiong has nothing to do, but he is afraid of changes after Qin Zaixiong's death.

There is also Kuixia Man, where is the most ferocious, but obviously the imperial court has no good way, the terrain is too complicated. Song Jiu looked at it and concluded that if it was not cured in the future, it would give the court a headache. The reason is simple, it communicates with the two states of Lilang, Tanzhou in the east, and Hengzhou in the south, as long as the barbarians come out of the mountain, they can directly endanger the Han households and the familiar barbarians.

It will definitely not work if it is forcibly requisitioned, even if it is levied, the imperial court does not have enough officers and soldiers to be stationed and the officials will govern. There is only guidance, there is a guidance method, or a contagion method. Now that the Song Dynasty can send brain platinum, why can't a tea party be held?

For example, on New Year's Day, ask some big chiefs out to eat, drink and chat together, and then give some small gifts, and then take them to visit the fields, dams, terraces, schools and markets, and say nothing. If the goods can't be shipped, it's okay, you mobilize the villagers to build roads, and the imperial court will provide some support. If you want to study, you send your children out of the mountains to study, provide them with food, drink, and housing, and bring your knowledge back to the mountains after you have learned, and provide pen, ink, paper, inkstones, and books to spread to other barbarian children. By the way, brainwash them again, you have to thank the imperial court, thank Your Majesty, and strengthen their cohesion with the imperial court.

Seeing this, the scribes of Dongfu and Zhao Kuangyin were all happy, without him, this is the evolved version of Song Jiu's method of absorbing capital in Hezhou, which can also be called Jiang Ziya's fishing version.

Time will be very slow, it may be ten years, it may be thirty years, but the money is not used much, and it has an effect, and the main thing is that there will not be much turmoil. The actual road was repaired, and the imperial army could easily enter, and it could gradually be brought into management in the future. The people's lives can be self-sufficient, and they can achieve a better life in another way, and they will not go out of the mountains to plunder and rob, and spontaneously change the original lazy slash-and-burn lifestyle. The inclusion of most ethnic groups in the imperial court system may have had an impact on those who were slave-owned. It was their internal matter, and if the situation expanded, as long as most of the tribes could regulate the jurisdiction of the imperial court, with their cooperation, they could easily extinguish it.

The second is to accommodate the barbarian bureaucratic system, and select a group of people from among the barbarians to serve as court officials, and they will take the lead and sort out from top to bottom.

In practice, it may not be so ideal, but it is obviously a new approach.

It is not the previous way of restraint, but through some means, the barbarians are gradually incorporated into the imperial court system, and finally completely integrated. The former is Hejing, Yisuan has many hidden dangers, and the latter is a new way of enterprising integration, which was done by the Northern Wei Dynasty and the Tang Dynasty, but not in the south, nor is it detailed to a village and a village, and it is not so detailed. There are many troubles, but there will be few hidden dangers after they are solved.

Zhao Kuangyin asked Song Jiu to go down to take a look, Song Jiu thought about it, whether he could adopt it or not was a matter for the imperial court. But he said one more thing, not only these barbarian tribes, including Dali, must be taken.

If it wasn't against Zhao Kuangyin, Song Jiu came back and heard a lot of news, it was he who stopped Wang Quanbin's army and did not go to Dali, and judged that Zhao Kuangyin had swung a jade axe. Not only Song Jiu, but also Hunan officials did not receive the relevant report.

To this end, Song Jiu drew a non-standard map, an arrow, inserted from Lingzhou to Hehuang, and then inserted into the depths of the Tubo Plateau, inserted into Dali, and then from Hehuang to divide two arrows, one to Bashu and one to Guanzhong, from Dali to two arrows, one to Bashu, one to the Southern Han, from the Southern Han to two arrows, one to Hunan, one to the Southern Tang.

Zhao Kuangyin is talking about this map.

Song Jiu was not nervous, this was not his nonsense, but the offensive line of Yuan Meng later was slightly different. Said: "Your Majesty, Weichen did that heavenly test, why did the balloon rise to a certain height and not rise?" Because the higher you go, the thinner it gets. The air on the plateau was thin, and it was difficult for the Han people living in the lower places to adapt, not because of the miasma, so it was difficult for the Han army to reach the depths of the Tibetan Plateau, and it was impossible to withstand the cold. On the other hand, the Tibetan army went down the plateau and would not be able to adapt to Chang'an. But the north is different, their terrain is relatively high, although it is not as good as the Tubo Plateau, and the impact of the miasma is not as great as that of the Han army. The north is just as cold. If there is a rare Ming monarch in the Khitan, theoretically the troops can go west. The Lingxia Dangxiang clan is scattered, and Tubo is even more so, so this area can be taken. How much trouble will it be for me to take it, one is an agricultural civilization, the other is a nomadic civilization, but they take it, the civilization is the same, the problem will not be too big, and if the means are good, they can quickly integrate and assimilate. If this is really done, at least it will not be much of a problem to take Nanzhao. ”

"What about logistics?"

"Feed the war with war. Besides, Wang Zhaoyuan can send envoys to collude with the Northern Han Dynasty, if Nanzhao and Jiaozhi think that our dynasty is a threat to them, or they are ambitious, they also send envoys to collude with the Khitan, and one Khitan is enough to contain all the military strength of our dynasty. They are in turmoil in the south, and even if the Southern Han Dynasty is summarized in the future, Lingnan Bashu will also have serious turmoil. However, after occupying Dali and Jiaozhi, there is no strong force to the south, and then to the south is the sea, so we can concentrate on dealing with the north. Therefore, Weichen said that Dali must be won. There is no rush now, but it must be included in the reconquest plan. ”

Finally knew how this map came about, it turned out that this kid didn't understand military affairs, scribbled maps, and there was such a powerful expeditionary force in the world? There really is, it hasn't come out, three hundred years later, but now Zhao Kuangyin definitely doesn't believe it.

Actually, it's really important.

However, Zhao Kuangyin had to consider it in the later paragraph.

Not to mention the many vertical and horizontal battles in history, some of them succeed and some fail, just like he sent Murong Yanzhao to conquer Jingnan Hunan, if the Southern Han, Northern Han, Southern Tang, Later Shu and Khitan attacked together, the southern expedition would be defeated, and even forced the two countries to reverse the Southern Tang Dynasty and the other to Later Shu, and the great cause of unifying the world would become a bubble.

However, it is not so easy for Song Jiu to include Dali and Jiaozhi in the territory, and if Wang Quanbin leads the army to conquer Dali, I don't know how big a leak will be.

It has nothing to do with the jade axe he threw out, it is related to the fortunes of the country, why do you have to count what you have said? After thinking about it for a long time, I still think that it will be put aside, Bashu is a mess, what do you think of Dali Jiaozhi Southern Han Southern Tang Northern Han!

threw out a few more diaries: "Song Jiu, aren't you afraid that the Tang Kingdom will be strong?" ”

Song Jiu took it, there was a matter of enclosing the field, there was a matter of seeds, Song Jiu looked at it and asked, the main crops in Hunan are soybeans, millet, and beans, and some people have begun to plant wheat on a large scale, and wheat is easy to promote and has a foundation. In addition, rice has been available for a long time, but it is the same as Luoyang rice in Henan Province, which has relatively high requirements for soil and water, and the yield is also low. Song Jiu said through the mouth of his illusory gentleman, China's rice seeds are weak, less than two stones per mu, the land must be creamy, and the water power must be sufficient, far less than the rice seed that occupies the city, but its cultivation is backward, and with China's intensive cultivation, the rice seed in the city can reach five stones.

is such a fictitious gentleman, sometimes the Zhao brothers want to beat Song Jiu, why don't they report to the court, the students who have learned some knowledge in a hurry are like this, but thinking about the teacher's skills, they actually let him go. What this gentleman said was ten times more reliable than what Song Jiu said!

Then the problem came out, the Song Dynasty could introduce seeds and repair the fields, so the Southern Tang Dynasty could do it even more. What are the implications of this?

Song Jiuda smiled and said: "Your Majesty, a prosperous era is that the country is strong, and the country is rich. Therefore, the word rich and strong is read together, if only rich and not strong, the country is not strong, but turns itself into a fat lamb, which is more likely to be hunted by tigers and wolves. For example, the Southern Tang Dynasty, it is richer than me, but so what, sooner or later it will be the prey of His Majesty. ”

"Don't talk nonsense, get down to business." However, Zhao Kuangyin smiled with satisfaction, and this sentence made him feel comfortable to hear.

"Another example is the Khitan, it is poorer than our dynasty, who dares to underestimate it? However, if you are only strong and not rich, there will always be a limit, so although the Khitan is strong and threatens the Central Plains, it cannot swallow the Central Plains. Therefore, Weichen believes that whether the Southern Tang Dynasty gets it or not, it will not be harmful. And Weichen estimates that they can't watch songs and listen to dances, where can they still think about the people? ”

Zhao Kuangyin was silent, and the problem returned to the original point, especially the Khitan, which was strong from the time of Wu Zetian, and defeated the Tang army many times. At that time, the Tang army was not weak, and the reason for the weakness was that Wu Zetian killed Wang Fangyi, Heiya Changzhi, Cheng Wuting, Zhang Qianqiao and other generals, which led to repeated defeats in foreign wars, defeated in the west by Tubo, defeated in the north by the Khitan, and even repeatedly invaded by the Later Turks, unable to do anything. Wu Zetian killed the general, Zhao Kuangyin resigned from the army, Zhao Kuangyin was better, but both of them seemed to be doing the same thing.

However, if you don't quit the military power, continue the chaos of the five generations? If you ask again, this kid has to answer, wear thick clothes in winter and thin clothes in summer, but this is not a clothes that can be moderately adjusted, these heavy generals can all be good at fighting, unruly, willing to use when they are used, and go home immediately when they are not in use? Even if you ask again, this kid will say that I will only talk and not do it, how to do it is the responsibility of His Majesty, who made you the emperor.

After thinking for a while, Zhao Kuangyin had a headache.

But I don't blame it, although Song Jiu is boastful, he is not blindly boasting, he does think about it, this is good intentions, especially in the line of going south, how difficult it is to come up with so much. If you are not a little lazy, if you polish it well, you can serve as a party member in a few years.

Song Jiu couldn't think of it, and Zhao Kuangyin couldn't think of it and didn't want to, so he changed the topic: "Spring is coming." ”

"Your Majesty, Weichen knows that spring is coming, and spring is about to leave."
