Chapter 498: The Merit of Scattering Wealth
So Zhao Heng didn't think of Kou Zhun, but thought of Lu Mengzheng.
Song Jiu said a rather meaningful sentence: "As a human king, you must have an all-encompassing mind in order to cure the world." ”
In the past, Lu Mengzheng first got together with Zhao Yuanxi, and then said good things for Wang Jien, which made Zhao Heng suspicious.
Because of Song Jiu's words, Lu Mengzheng was used.
Song Jiu recommended Xiang Minzhong to go to Xifu by the way, and Wang Xian was the same as the privy envoy, in fact, neither Wang Xian nor Cao Bin had the ability to serve as a privy envoy, although they were born as military generals, but in their hands, all kinds of military reforms that Song Jiu had built up with great difficulty in the past were damaged to varying degrees.
The most serious thing is the General Staff Division, and now there is almost an empty shell left, so there is a joke about letting Fu Qian be the main general.
He also transferred Wang Dan from Xifu to Dongfu.
Dongfu is still full of talents, whether it is Li Xin, Lu Mengzheng, or Wang Dan and Wang Huaji, they are all first-rate talents, and Decao has nothing to say. But in Xifu, Wang Xian, Qian Ruoshui, Zhou Ying, Wang Jiying, no matter how moral they are, why do these people serve as the rulers of Xifu? Especially that Zhou Ying.
Xiang Minzhong's entry into Xifu made up for the lack of Xifu's ability to govern.
The second is river control.
Although Song Jiu participated in the military, it was mainly the responsibility of the Western Mansion, and the governance of the river was the main business of the Eastern Mansion.
Back then, there was a good minister Wang Ming who governed the river, and now there is another person in the court, Wang Qinruo, but because the history books have too bad an evaluation of him, Song Jiu did not dare to protect it, so he simply asked Zhao Heng.
Zhao Heng asked, "How is Bi Shi'an?" ”
After Zhao Heng came to power. He appointed several of his teachers and entered the two mansions respectively.
These teachers may all be elders. However, without grinding, none of them are competent. Fortunately, Zhao Heng saw it clearly, so he successively dismissed the prime minister as his own official.
Song Jiu thought back, as if he only remembered that Bi Shi'an had served as the superintendent of the imperial history. So he had some doubts in his mind.
However, Zhao Heng was bent on cultivating his teacher, and Song Jiu couldn't refuse. Fortunately, when Wang Meizhi was in the beginning, he left a lot of information for reference.
Therefore, let Bi Shi'an go down with these materials for further inspection.
In the winter leisure, the three divisions allocated more than 10 million yuan for river control.
The following year, several million dollars were allocated for tree planting.
I don't know if Lu Dao can think of the effect, but Nanhetao has the innate conditions for planting trees, that is, with the opening of the Song army over the years. Grazing, the construction of countless aqueducts, once the trees into a forest, but also conducive to the local people to further settle down the grazing, only settled, can be effectively managed.
There is also Hebei, from Xishan to Xiongzhou, which also began to plant many saplings densely.
As you can imagine. Once seven or eight years have passed, these saplings will grow and become the strongest walls of the city.
In fact, there is a lot of good motives in this, one is to create a cowardly illusion of the Song Dynasty that does not want to make progress to the Liao State. The second is to tell Xiao Yanyan that if she wants to attack the Song Dynasty in a big way, take advantage of it......
Actually, it comes down to all of them. It's six words, governing the river. Benefiting the people and strengthening the army.
However, from beginning to end, Song Jiu did not ask about Bashu's counterinsurgency.
Wang Jun's happy meeting made the officers and soldiers of the Song Dynasty sick. But there is a very interesting person in the army. Qin Han. After his hard work, he finally asked the craftsman to invent a thing, a kind of canister, the principle is somewhat similar to the water gun when children played later, but the sealing is higher, and it is larger and more complex, and it is injected with oil, but now it is called fierce fire oil, which is the asphalt oil sprayed by some high-quality oil fields themselves, after a simple refining product, as for the drilling play, it is too far away.
Then the soldiers stood on the "goose wings and enemy shed covered hole car", fired at the "happy meeting", and then shot with rockets, and suddenly Wang Jun's happy encounter burned.
There was no happy meeting, and Wang Jun began to lose his anger.
The Song army launched an attack from three roads, digging tunnels under the ground, and it was impossible for all the rebels in the trenches in the city to listen to the movements on the surface with all their hearts, and most of them were soldiers forcibly recruited by Wang Jun. Some set gunpowder under the tunnels to blow up the city walls, and some infiltrated the city as dead soldiers and burned the rebels' defense equipment. On the ground, the "goose wings are the enemy shed covered with a hole car" and the "cave house" are approaching the city wall at the same time. It was impossible for Wang Jun to dig caverns outside all the walls of Yizhou. Besides, they are digging, and Song Jun is also digging.
Dozens of hot air balloons rose in the air, firing arrows from a high position.
Only then did he make great sacrifices and attack Yizhou City.
But Wang Jun still retreated into Tianchangguan, set up a strict line of defense in front of Wen Weng Fang, Gao Jixun took the initiative to transfer Ma Liang to ask for a large amount of fierce fire oil and straw oil, and led his men to attack Wen Weng Fang with torches, and burned Wen Weng Fang with a fire. Yang Huaizhong took the opportunity to advance to the front village of Tianchangguan, and then burned the front village with fire. Wang Jun saw that the defeat was decided, and broke through by night.
At this time, it was all delayed until September.
However, Lei Youzhong finally did something that angered people.
He sent Yang Huaizhong and Shi Pu to chase Wang Jun with the court cavalry and Sichuan cavalry, and he himself wantonly arrested those who received Wang Jun's false official position in the city, and burned hundreds of people alive on the pyre without asking whether they were forced to hold the position.
Fortunately, Li Jichang ordered his subordinates not to worry about the people, and put the women and children in the city in the empty temple, sent troops to guard them, and sent them home after the matter was settled.
Otherwise, under the leadership of Lei Youzhong, another unjust tragedy occurred.
Wang Jun continued to go crazy while running.
It is understandable to blackmail soldiers and civilians to cut off bridges and block roads, in order to flee for their lives, but then the hysteria of this person is explained, and he runs while ignoring the lives of ordinary people, burning all the warehouses to the ground. But he fled to Fushun Prison and was chased by Shi Yang and the others. Wang Jun set the fire again, and then fled to Yangjia City, preparing to cross the river and flee to the Ronglu Barbarian Realm. Yang Huaizhong and Shi Pu arrived in time, arrested Wang Jun, and killed him on the spot.
It took ten months for the rebellion to be put down.
Moreover, Lei You's final rule of the army had no way, which brought even more trauma to the people of Sichuan. You must know that this rebellion has nothing to do with the people of Sichuan, Mao, it is all because there are problems in the army of the Song Dynasty.
This forced Song Jiu to propose that the next year continue to reduce the taxes of more than a dozen prefectures and counties that were affected for one year, which is not enough, and almost half of the Yizhou City, which was rich in the past, was burned.
So Zhao Heng said: "Lei Youyou is the third division of the end, and he claims to be honest and honest on business; Yesterday, the two rivers were robbed, and they were cut off because of their fate, and it was quite heard that they would eventually take advantage of their disturbances and be greedy for money. If so, then Wang Ze'an will be obscene, how can the vulgarity change! Is it evil to say and do against each other? ”
In fact, in order to motivate the soldiers, Lei Youzhong sold his family property as a reward.
But how?
Does it mean that all the soldiers who put down the rebellion should be killed?
Therefore, a slight charge of greed for money was used, and Lei You's official position was finally demoted.
In fact, Song Jiu didn't know how to deal with Lei Youquan, saying that he was greedy, he really didn't put a penny into his pocket, which was essentially different from Wang Quanbin and Wang Jien, saying that he was not greedy, because of the lax governance, so many things happened, otherwise this rebellion would have been put down a long time ago, and Chengdu would not have had such a serious disaster.
This also set a record, all the coaches who entered the Bashu counterinsurgency, from Wang Quanbin to Wang Jien to Lei Youzhong, no one had a good end. So much so that after Ma Zhijie was transferred, Zhao Heng was not at ease with others, and transferred Zhang Yong to Chengdu, and Zhang Yong's two terms in Chengdu lasted for nearly eight years, creating a history of the Song Dynasty's tenure as a magistrate.
And also forced Zhao Heng, who didn't like strict laws, to accept Song Jiu's proposal and issued an edict:
Within the Song realm, anyone who trampled on the people's crops, for whatever reason, must be compensated twice.
Whoever disturbs the people, or usurps the people's property, regardless of the reason, will be beheaded for public display.
Anyone who insults a woman from a good family will be killed.
In the second year alone, because of this edict, forty-nine officers and soldiers were killed, including two deputy governors, and fifteen military generals were dismissed and exiled.
But after this ruthlessness, military discipline has been strengthened, if it is ...... If Bashu rebels again, I believe that there will be no similar situation again.
In general, after Song Jiu entered the Zhongshu, the main movement was still military, and the internal governance was only supplemented, and the main body still followed Zhao Heng's Xianping rule.
Don't underestimate these ancients, such as in history, Li Xin saw that the country was on fire everywhere this year, and knew that Lingzhou could not be saved, so he suggested that Pei Ji should take the officers and soldiers, and move the people who returned to the Song Dynasty to the interior of Shaanxi, Zhao Heng did not listen, and then it really fell, Pei Ji fought alone and died bravely, this is a famous general who cooperated with Li Jilong and defeated Yelu Xiu Song twice......
Zhang Qixian saw that the Liao State kept launching tentative attacks, and suggested in advance that he should recruit 80,000 soldiers from Jiang, Huai, and Jinghu to benefit the army and prepare for the border. Zhao Heng said that this not only shook people's hearts, but also made the people in the south go far away from the west, and it was not convenient. As a result, Xiao Yanyan's army went south, and there was an emergency on all sides, if the imperial court had increased 80,000 forbidden soldiers in advance at that time, would Xiao Yanyan have no return?
As a result, they were trapped on both sides and had to increase the number of forbidden troops to more than 600,000, forming a more serious redundancy.
But this was not Song Jiu's weakness, he was never an arrogant person, and continued to listen to opinions from all sides, even communicating with local officials, as he had done in Zhongshu before.
This caution paid off immediately, and soon the whole country was once again in a state of rapid development.
Therefore, Zhao Heng said at the new fire festival: "I will use Qing late." ”
Song Jiu replied: "Your Majesty, Fei Ye, the country is quickly stable, the first merit is His Majesty, the second is Chen Shu, without Chen Shu's careful management in the three divisions, there will be no sufficient wealth, and the minister only has the merit of scattering wealth." ”
Chen Shu smiled bitterly, after Song Jiu's tossing, last year, the three divisions not only did not have a surplus, but instead posted more than 20 million yuan out of the company.
Zhao Heng just smiled, and then looked at the north......
If Song Jiu's guess is correct, the two most powerful countries will have a strongest collision in the future. And the Liao State may have reached its peak at that time, and the Song Dynasty may also be a peak. Therefore, that collision will be a violent collision of two pinnacle superpowers, which may shake the mountains, churn the rivers, and lose the sun and the moon...... (To be continued......)
