Chapter 7 Six Wins and Six Defeats

"Four victories, the Jin Kingdom rose in Liaodong, and its foundation was in the sixteen states of Youyun, both of which were near the sea. In the next 10 years or so, it is necessary for the DPRK to build a powerful navy to land in these two major areas and launch an attack on the sea area of nearly 100 miles. If the time is not right, these two areas can be swept away, houses can be burned, fields can be destroyed, the war potential of the Jin army can be damaged, and the Jin country can be weakened step by step; If the timing is right, it will launch a devastating blow and directly join forces with the Northern Expeditionary Army to capture Jizhou and other places. The Jin army won with cavalry, and our army won with the navy, fighting in an unbalanced battle with the enemy and gaining relative superiority. ”

"Five victories, although the Liao State was destroyed, the remnants of the Liao State fled to the Western Regions. If the timing is right, you can unite these remnants of the Liao Kingdom and work together to besiege the Jin Kingdom! And Western Xia was also a joint target, attacking the Jin State. The combined forces of my Great Song Dynasty, the remnants of the Liao Kingdom, and the Western Xia are enough to make the Jin Kingdom drink a pot! ”

"Six wins, in the country of gold itself. The reason why the Jin State is strong is barbarism, and once barbarism is lost, the Jurchens will decline as quickly as the Khitans and Tanguts. The Jurchens ran rampant in the world with iron horses, destroyed the Liao army, and even coerced our Song Dynasty, worthy of being heroes. And with the entry into the Central Plains, they will be quickly corrupted, corrupted by the Huahua world of the Central Plains, and corroded by the smell of copper to corrode their strong will, lying on women all day long, drinking fine wine, how much combat power do they have! ”

Speaking of this, Zhao Pu's eyes showed naked disdain, "Maybe ten years, maybe twenty years, and the Jin army at that time will be corrupted quickly." The seemingly powerful Jin Army will become a paper tiger, and it will completely fall with a breath! ”

Money is not everything, but it can solve most problems, and it can corrupt and destroy powerful empires.

When the Song Dynasty was established, it recovered and annexed the state, resisted the Liao army, and fought the cavalry with infantry without losing, but under the corrosion of money, it has long become a soft-footed crab; The current Jin army destroyed Liao and the Song Dynasty, how powerful it was, but a hundred years later, it was beaten by the Mongols and out; The Mongols were rampant in Eurasia and invincible in the world, but they were defeated by the little Zhu Chongba; Later, the Jurchens rose again, established the Manchus, and destroyed the powerful Ming Dynasty, but three hundred years later, the children of the Eight Banners became wastes again.

No matter how powerful an army is, it can't withstand the corrosion of money.

This is the real chance of victory, as long as the enemy does not make mistakes, he has no chance of victory at all. Although he has six wins, the only ones that really matter are the first and the last.

"This is the six points of victory in my dynasty, as long as these six points are constantly expanded, the victory will definitely belong to my Great Song Dynasty. Today, the Jin army can come to Bianliang City and coerce our army, and in the coming day, our army can still plow the court and sweep the holes, and the powerful Northeast Tiger will inevitably surrender! ”

Listening to this, Zhao Huizong was also enthusiastic, and seemed to see that one day in the future, the Song army besieged the royal family of the Jin Kingdom, asked those princesses and queen mothers to warm his bed, and those princes and grandsons brought him a commode, and he couldn't help but feel extremely comfortable and chuckled.

"What are the six defeats?" Song Huizong said in a brisk tone.

Zhao Pudao: "A defeat lies in morale, up to the royal family, down to the common people, first there is a phobia of Liao, then there is a phobia of Xia, and now there is a phobia of gold." Before there is a war, fear is born in the heart. If this symptom is not cured, we Han people have no second way to go except to be slaves of the country. The second defeat lies in the fact that civilian officials are greedy for money, military attaches are afraid of death, and the army is corrupt, culturally corrupt, and officialdom is corrupt. My Emperor Taizu once said that he would rule the world together with the scholars. However, some scholars took advantage of Taizu's benevolence, and there was no bottom line for corruption. They're as stupid as pigs, don't they know? If my Song Dynasty dies, the policy of the emperor and scholars ruling the world together will also disappear! ”

The Song Dynasty was the best for scholars and doctors, and they raised scholars for a hundred years, but scholars did nothing except pick up girls, compose poems, and embezzle. When the Northern Song Dynasty and the Southern Song Dynasty perished, literati were more betrayed than martyred, and people like Wen Tianxiang were really rare. There are 100,000 floating corpses in Yashan, and more of them are soldiers and civilians than literati. The Song Dynasty was the most tolerant and most treatful to the literati, but it was also the era when the literati were the most undisciplined.

So, when the Ming Dynasty was established, Zhu Yuanzhang used a large number of scholars, but in his bones he had extreme distrust of the literati. embezzled more than 250 taels of silver, peeled and filled with grass; He even launched major cases again and again, massacred a large number of literati, and even established Jinyi Wei to monitor literati......

Ming Chengzu Zhu Di is even more of the ten clans, the last of which is the master.

As a result, the situation of the emperor and the scholars ruling the world together completely disappeared, but the cold face of the king remained.

The literati are just endlessly lost, and they still remember the beautiful era of the Song Dynasty, but they forget how much trauma the literati brought to the Song Dynasty, and its harm is far greater than that of relatives, eunuchs, and feudal towns, and only the scholars and gate lords of the Wei and Jin dynasties can be compared.

After a pause, Zhao Pu said: "The three defeats are that our dynasty is in danger, and the Jin army is approaching the city, which is just a disaster; The second disaster lies in the continuous revolts of peasants in various places, such as the Wang Xiaobo uprising in Sichuan, the Manichaean uprising in Fangla, and the Songjiang uprising in Shandong, although these uprisings were quelled. But the people there are still living in poverty, it is still a powder keg, and there may be a chance that chaos will arise again. may inadvertently appear a Zhang Xiaobo, Li Xiaobo, and Song Xiaobo, which is the trouble of the henchmen. The rear of the Jin country is unstable, in fact, our rear is also extremely unstable. If you are outside, you must first settle inside, and if you are unstable inside, how to go on a northern expedition and how to pacify the Jin country. ”

The Ming Dynasty was dying in the midst of continuous internal peasant uprisings and external Qing army attacks, which was very similar to the Song Dynasty. Fortunately, the Song Dynasty had a cow like Yue Fei, but unfortunately there was no Yue Fei alive in the Ming Dynasty.

"The four defeats lie in the fact that there is no way to move the capital. During the Tang Dynasty, during the Anshi Rebellion, Emperor Ming of the Tang Dynasty could flee to Shuzhong for refuge, but I couldn't. At that time, our policy towards Shuzhong was too strict, and there were constant rebellions, and in order to quell the rebellion, there was a massacre. In addition, Emperor Taizong was not good to Zhao Chang, the lord of Shu, and it was impossible to move the capital to Shuzhong; And Guanzhong is a place of four stops, but unfortunately it is too close to the Western Xia, once the Jin army attacks from Tongguan, and the Western Xia army attacks from the west, the two ways are attacked, and it is absolutely impossible to hold, the situation will deteriorate even more, and it is not the best place to go; And to the south, moving the capital to Jiangnan, is not the best place to go, there has been the Fangla Rebellion, the military discipline of the Western Army is too poor, there are many people who kill good and take risks, and there are no longer a few looting, plus Huashi ...... Almost crippled. There are remnants of Manichaeism there, and it is more difficult to set the capital in Jiangnan. Once the capital is there, the chances of a successful Northern Expedition are slim. ”

I have to say that the Song Dynasty was a sad era. If you want to move the capital, whether it is Chengdu, Chang'an, or Nanjing, it is not the best place to go, which means that the risk is not small, either offending the people there, or committing massacres, or being easily attacked.

Once the capital is moved, it will take at least ten years, if not longer, to consolidate the rear, lest there be rebels overthrowing the imperial court or the feudal towns threatening the central government. But not moving the capital means a dead end.

Of course, the most terrible thing is that once the idea of moving the capital is proposed, 100% of them will become traitors or traitors, and they will be sprayed to death by the spittle of the scholars.

"The five defeats lie in the fact that we do not suppress business. It did not suppress business, and commerce developed, which brought sufficient taxes, but also made money worship prevail and money supreme. These big businessmen assisted the scholars to infiltrate the upper and lower levels of the imperial court, and they were shameless to the extreme, especially the Huaizhou merchants smuggled some scarce things to the Jin Kingdom for a little profit. If it weren't for the treason of these people, why would the Jin people be so rampant! Zhao Pu said resentfully.

There is no uneasiness, no agriculture is unstable, no work is not strong, no business is not rich.

The development of commerce will inevitably bring a large amount of social wealth, promote the rapid development of society, and if you are lucky, you can even give birth to the germ of capitalism. It's just that the backlash of commerce is also extremely terrifying, they are like moths, sucking the blood of the whole country, and then fattening themselves and ruining the national fortunes of a country.

In the West, Rome and Carthage competed for hegemony in the Mediterranean, and Carthage's overall strength far surpassed Rome's, but it was defeated in successive battles, even with Hannibal, it could not recover the doom of destroying the country. It was because the merchant power was so great that it corrupted the whole country and brought down the mighty Carthage.

In the Northern Song Dynasty, the Song people fought bloody battles against the Jin army, but at the same time, the merchants of Bingzhou were wantonly exporting strategic materials, and shamelessly became traitors for the sake of the 200% profit.

In the Southern Song Dynasty, Quanzhou merchants shamelessly betrayed the emperor of the Song Dynasty.

In the Ming Dynasty, Shanxi merchants, the so-called Eight Great Imperial Merchants, smuggled to the Qing army, ruining the national fortune of the Ming Dynasty.

"The six defeats are short in time. Our dynasty only has twenty years, which can be used, ten years of time to resist the invasion of the Jin army layer by layer, constantly forging elite divisions, and constantly recuperating; In ten years, the Northern Expedition wiped out or surrendered the Jin people, defeated the Western Xia, recovered the Hexi Corridor and the Hetao region, and recovered the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun. This goal must be achieved within 20 years, otherwise we will wait for the river to be ruled and the situation of the North and South Dynasties will be reproduced. Twenty years was the best period for the Northern Expedition to destroy Jinping and Western Xia, and once this period was missed, there was no need to talk about the Northern Expedition. At that time, the rear of the Jin Kingdom was stable, and our dynasty was comfortable for a long time, and at that time, the Northern Expedition could not get anything except labor and wealth and hurt the people. Descendants are waiting to become the Chen Dynasty, singing the Yushu Hou* Courtyard Flower, and be a slave to the country! ”

Zhao Pu said that he was extremely disappointed here. Twenty years is a quarter of a life, which is a long time. However, for the great cause of recovering the country, it may be over in the blink of an eye. The Song Dynasty did not destroy the Liao State and Western Xia for a hundred years, and it is almost impossible to achieve it in just twenty years!

It is difficult to achieve this goal in 20 years, almost a fantasy, even a fantasy.
