The watch was sent up very quickly, and the leaders and brains of the loyal and brave army also returned to their stations to convey orders to officers at all levels and prepare for departure. Zhao Ta can't be idle, he still has to worry about his business, they know the rules of tea and cooling, no one dares to bare their teeth with him when they are favored, once they fall into the situation, the past opponents will find all kinds of reasons to get along with themselves.

At this moment, while it is a little hot, it can still hold on, and it is better to quickly shrink the front and turn to defense. The first to bear the brunt of their influence was Shengyitang, whose business scope was in Hebei and Gyeonggi regions, and the objects were mainly high-ranking officials and nobles, and the emperor's relatives and relatives were not bad for money, mainly luxury goods. These transactions are second only to the salt farms in terms of small profits and large profits, but because of this, I don't know how many people in Langdao are hot.

Although he was reluctant, but Zhao Ta knew that the war was together, maybe when the Jurchens would arrive in Bianjing City, he remembered that the imperial court in order to pay compensation, but in the big search of the capital, all the rich families were forced to donate their families, even the prostitutes' skin and flesh money did not let go.

Therefore, Zhao Ta ordered Zheng Shou, the head of Shengyitang, to immediately find a way to take advantage of the situation in the downtown of the city to quickly take advantage of the situation, and the money in the cabinet is no longer released, only the function of circulating acceptance of silver tickets is retained, and only one or two inns and restaurants are reserved in the surrounding areas of the capital and Hebei to listen to the news and receive their own caravans, and the rest will change hands as soon as possible, and the bag will be safe!

As for Jiangnan, which may be the refuge of the Great Song Dynasty and a golden place in the future, Zhao ordered Zheng Fu, the head of Shengdetang, to develop Jiangnan Road and Liangzhejiang Road anonymously, especially Quanzhou and Hangzhou, which are close to the sea. At the same time, the various workshops in Xiangyi were also evacuated to Jiangnan, and a shipyard was established in Jiangnan with the workshop as the backbone. The winery, perfume workshop, glass workshop, etc. were rebuilt in Suzhou and Hangzhou to form a new agricultural, industrial and commercial base centered on Suzhou and Hangzhou. Leave a way back for yourself.

After more than ten years of development, Shengzhongtang has grown into a 10 Wanhu 'Shenzhou' class ships. There are 40 5,000-Hu 'passenger boat' class ships, nearly 100 2,000 small ships, and a large fleet of 10,000 sailors. Among them, there are 30 armed merchant ships, equipped with 500 artillery pieces of various types, sailors have undergone rigorous naval combat training, and there are also two brigades of 4,000 marines, which have become an important maritime force in East Asia.

Zhao Ta's previous task was to establish a base in the Bohai Bay area, and now that it has been completed, the next step is to establish a detachment to open up a route to the south. Develop overseas trade in Southeast Asia and provide financial support for a possible protracted war!

Hedong would become the battlefield of the Song and Jin dynasties, and Zhao Ta moved part of Shengrentang north to Xijing Province under his control, and undertook most of the military tasks and the turnover and transportation of materials; The Shenghetang, which is mainly in the Hezhong, Hexi and Western Regions, is the rear base, and the heavy responsibility of raising funds for the various departments will fall on their heads, and they will also prepare for the settlement of the loyal and brave army in the river...

"Lord Wang, my subordinates are back!" In the post house, Li Jun reported to the prince.

"Thanks, the things have been delivered?" Zhao Ta waved his hand to let Li Jun sit down and said.

"Thank you, Lord Xie, I sent it to him!" Li Jun replied respectfully. He has been with the prince for a few years, but as a person who conspires and walks in the dark world all day long, he is still timid towards the prince, because he seems to be unable to hide anything in front of the prince.

"Well, what's his situation?" Zhao Ta pushed Li Jun to a glass of water and asked.

"He's not very good. The position is awkward, although it is called the internal and external commanders, but it has no right to mobilize the army. Empty name! Li Jun said.

"How's he feeling?" Zhao Ta picked up the cup and took a sip of tea and said.

"He regrets that he didn't listen to the prince's persuasion, and he can't regret it!" Li Jun said with a smile.

"It's interrupted. There will be troubles in the future, blame me for being soft when I slaughtered the tiger. If the day's plan had remained the same, it wouldn't have happened today! Zhao Ta also regretted it, he should have blown up Wu Qimai to death that day.

"The prince doesn't have to blame himself, Zong Han is now more powerful in Xijing, and with the momentum of the tail not falling, it is difficult for Wu to be restrained, I think even if he is in power, I am afraid that he will be restrained by it!" Li Jun said. Spring in the northwest is late, and the rain finally comes down after two days of cloudy,

"Well, Zong Han is a character!" Zhao Ta nodded and said, gold always shines, although this sticky Han was defeated in Xijing City, his rise still can't be stopped...

Zong Han was an important politician and military strategist in the Wanyan family, and he was very ambitious. He is the eldest son of Sagai, and does not belong to the lineage of Aguta, but he is very close in blood, and he is the nephew of Aguta. As early as 10 years ago, Aguta formulated the enterprising policy of "unification of China and foreign countries" to destroy Liao, and Zong Han played an important role in the determination of the policy, and it was he who repeatedly put forward his opinion to Aguta to hunt down the Liao Emperor Tianzuo, and promoted the formulation of the Jin regime's enterprising policy of "unification of China and foreign countries".

When Aguta was waging the war to exterminate Liao, although he decided on the strategic and enterprising principle of "unifying China and foreign countries," his original intention was to occupy Liao, so that the northeast and northwest regions would become the golden ones to dominate the world, and to leave the cause of reunifying China to future generations. It was he who signed the "Maritime Alliance" with the Northern Song Dynasty regime and insisted on returning the land of Yanyun to the Song Dynasty.

However, Zong Han's attitude was completely different from that of Aguta, he always stood on the position of the Jurchen slave owners and aristocrats, took the implementation of the enterprising policy of "unification of China and foreign countries" as his own responsibility, adhered to the plan of destroying the Liao and attacking the Song Dynasty, and made every effort to put it into practice.

When the Song and Jin signed the "Maritime Alliance," Zong Han adopted Gao Qingyi's opinion, using Pingzhou as an excuse to believe that Pingzhou, Luan, and Ying did not belong to Yandi, and insisted on not returning Song Pingzhou. Although the Song envoys repeatedly requested, they were not allowed to return, and this strategic intention was very obvious, and this opinion was later supported by Aguta.

After the Jin soldiers occupied Yanjing, the Song regime negotiated with Jin on the issue of returning Yandi. During the negotiations, Zong Han adopted the opinions of some members of the Han bureaucracy in Yanjing who did not want to return to the Song Dynasty, and made a suggestion to Ah Gu that he would not return to the Song Yandi. Although at the insistence of Aguta, the Jin side returned Yanjing and the surrounding area to Song, Zong Han never agreed. Not only did he oppose the return of Yan land to the Song Dynasty, but he also opposed the return of Shanxi land to the Song Dynasty, the purpose of which was to "have a strategy," and this strategy should be an enterprising strategy of "unifying China and foreign countries."

After Ah Gu was killed, he was appointed as the commander of the Jin soldiers, stationed in Fengshengzhou, and held the power of the army. In order to consolidate his position and resist the influence of Wanyan Xianye, who had been in charge of the military for many years, Wu Qimai began to reuse Zong Han to make him more powerful, not only allowing him to control the military power of the southwest and northwest roads, but also Wu Qimai granted him a hundred empty names to exterminate the local officials and give them administrative powers, and the area where he was stationed became an important military and political center of Jin...

"Lord Wang, Zong Han is hateful, but several Hanchen under him are even more hateful, inciting the Jurchens to attack the Song Dynasty, and even went to Beijing to persuade Wu to beg for buying, according to the oblique also said that he seems to have been moved, he said that the prince's parting words came true, and he was going to meet the prince on the battlefield!" Li Jun looked at the silent prince and said again.

"Traitor... Tell me what they did! Zhao Ta smiled bitterly and said, these things are also endless in which dynasty, they surrender to the enemy for their own personal grievances, and sell the entire nation to the enemy.

"Yes, Lord Wang!" Li Jun said, "There are two people who are the most active, one of them is Liu Yanzong, a native of Wanping, a descendant of the Youyun Han clan surnamed Liu, when the Jin army entered Yan, he surrendered with Zuo Qigong as the official position of the Privy Council of Liao, and later avoided the difficulties of Pingzhou because he went north with Aguda to pursue Emperor Tianzuo of Liao. When the Jin Dynasty handed over the Yanjing region to the Northern Song Dynasty, it swept away the large households in the place according to the agreement with the Song people, and its family property was awarded to the Changsheng Army by the Song court, so they all complained to the imperial court. ”

"Well, Liu Yanzong, you go on!" Zhao Ta nodded and said, filling Li Jun with water, he knew that this was also a policy mistake of the Song court, taking care of one thing and losing the other, retaining the future trouble of Guo Yaoshi, but pushing the gentry in the Youyan Han people into the arms of the Jurchens.

"Thank you, Lord Wang!" Li Jun took a cup and drank half a glass of water and then said, "Another person is called Shi Liai, a native of Zhuozhou Xincheng, who is an official with a Jinshi, and was sent to Pingzhou to manage the military and government after Yeluchun's death, but he did not agree with Zhang Jue, and often said that he was sick and ignored political affairs. Soldiers in the Song Dynasty', after Zhang Jue anti-Jin, Shi Liai did not want to participate in the uprising, returned to the new city and countryside, I tried to recruit him as an official many times, but he did not come out, and warned the people in the clan not to serve the Song, until the Jin army conquered Youyun before returning to the Jin Dynasty, was recruited by Zong Han as a member of the Privy Council, and tried his best to assist the Jin Dynasty monarchs. ”

"These people are all old foxes, and they have long understood the thoughts of the Jurchens, so they are fanning the flames and fueling the flames!" Zhao Tan tapped on the coffee table and said, the fall of the Liao State, the Jurchen ambition is also expanding day by day with the strong stimulation of obtaining a large amount of wealth in war and plunder, these traitors will not understand the thoughts of their masters in their eyes, and in view of the Song regime's active defensive strategy conflicting with it, it just gave them a chance.

"What the prince said is true, after the Liao Emperor was captured, they became more and more wanton, instigating Youyan Han to persuade Zong Han to attack the Song Dynasty, and actively lobbying the Liao Han army that surrendered to the Song Dynasty to reduce gold, and the situation became more and more unfavorable for us!" Li Jun said.

"You can't let them make waves and kill them and cut off their right-hand men, your intelligence department will investigate in detail and make a list!" Zhao Ta paused the teacup heavily on a few and said in a deep voice, the harm of traitors is sometimes worse than those enemies, and they should be killed to set an example! (To be continued.)
