Chapter 493: The Great Song of the Prosperous Age
"The host reversed the decline of the Great Song Dynasty, reshaped the dynasty, and revived the Great Song Dynasty from destruction, and now rewards politics +10 and strategy +10. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" After speaking, Li You's current data is displayed on the tiger talisman panel: 67 in command, 56 in force, 40 in politics, and 36 in strategy.
Now it looks like it's just like it, after going through so many mission worlds, Li You's four-dimensional data is finally not as shabby as it was at the beginning, but it also gives rise to new doubts, why did he only increase the command value and force value when he completed the mission before, but now even politics and strategy are added?
After thinking for a moment, Li You seemed to find the reason, whether it was the Three Kingdoms World, the Han Dynasty and the Tang Dynasty, most of the tasks he completed were simple conquests, but this time he came to the end of the Southern Song Dynasty was different, he was possessed by the Great Song Dynasty Prime Minister Lu Xiufu, in addition to leading the Zheng He fleet, the Great Sui Xiaoguo and the Great Song army to defeat the Mengyuan army, but also shouldered the task of eliminating maladministration and reshaping the political pattern of the Great Song Dynasty. Presumably, these are the rewards of the Tiger Talisman.
It is both a bad thing and a good thing that the Great Song Dynasty fell into a dying state, if it was placed in the Renzong period or the Gaozong period, it is probably impossible for Li Youxiang to make such a subversive reform, I am afraid that he will end up like Fan Zhongyan in the Qingli New Deal and Wang Anshi in the reform of Shenzong, because the strong opposition of the scholar class finally failed, and he was also expelled from the court; But now the power of the scholar class has long been swept away in the war, and only Chen Yizhong, who can't cause him much trouble, is left, and even if he stands up, he is just a mantis arm as a car.
The white paper is good to paint, now Li You holds the military power and power of the Great Song Dynasty, the queen mother and the little emperor themselves do not have much prestige, and they obey him, Zhang Shijie, Wen Tianxiang, Mrs. Xu, Chen Hangyan and others inside and outside the court are the only ones who look ahead, and it is indeed much more convenient for them to work together to do things, so they can smoothly implement the new policy.
Today's Great Wei is also similar to this, Li You then thought of the current situation in Great Wei, the dispute of the Seven Kingdoms will definitely smash the old order to pieces, and he just took this opportunity to strictly rectify those families and scholars, if Li You was still a little undecided before, then after experiencing the changes of the Great Song Dynasty, his confidence will be much firmer.
Although it is said that the family and scholars of the Great Wei still have strong power, they are not alone, and they can clean up the mess of the Great Song Dynasty by themselves, so with the help of Sima Cuo, Fan Li, Yao Guangxiao, Qian Sa, Li Lingyue and others, plus the Jiazhou Army built by themselves, it must not be too difficult.
Now that the Great Song Dynasty is on the right track, as long as they slowly accumulate strength, and when the internal friction of the Mongols weakens them to the extreme, it is time for them to lead their army north to restore the old capital of Bianliang, complete the task, and return to the Great Wei.
Li You, who was rewarded by the system, then dealt with various political affairs more easily, and the three places of Zhejiang, Jiangxi, and Guangdong newly recovered by the Great Song Dynasty quickly regained their vitality, countless fertile fields were reclaimed, countless cities were rejuvenated, and countless commodities were transported from Quanzhou, Guangzhou and other coastal cities to the far west, bringing endless wealth to the Great Song Dynasty.
Li You, of course, would not be satisfied with just being a supplier to the Great Food Merchant, he built the Great Song Dynasty's ocean-going trading fleet, led by Zheng He, a commander who was well versed in Western shipping routes, and with the help of Marco Polo from Venice, the Great Song Dynasty's ocean-going fleet began a long expedition, under the command of Zheng He, the Great Song Dynasty's trading fleet set off from Quanzhou, passed through the Great Food, reached eastern Africa, and then crossed the Red Sea, and reached the Mediterranean coast by land.
After many years, Mark Polo finally returned to his native Venice, where the humble merchant became the darling of the entire West, and the various exquisite goods brought by Zheng He caused a huge sensation in Venice, and the kings of Europe rushed to invite the Great Song Dynasty delegation to their kingdom.
When they heard that the Great Song Dynasty had killed the Mongol Great Khan, who terrified the entire West, they became more and more respectful, and as a witness of the Great Battle of Dadu, Marco Polo tried his best to boast of the invincibility of the Great Song army, and Zheng He also lost no time in reaching a cooperation intention with the kings of Western Europe to organize a coalition to attack the Mongols from both east and west directions.
Although in terms of the current transportation conditions, their military operations can not provide much help to the Great Song Dynasty, but in the long run, this is very beneficial to weaken the strength of the Mongols, so that the Great Song Dynasty will enter the Western Regions in the future, presumably under pressure from the West, and now the Ilkhanate, Chagatai Khanate, Kipchak Khanate, etc., which occupy the Western Regions, will gradually adjust their military centers to the west, so when the Great Song Dynasty clears the Mongols in the Central Plains in the future, they can occupy the Western Regions at a smaller cost.
Of course, the formation of this ocean-going fleet is not only this benefit, Li You also drew a rough map of the world's continents according to the memory of later generations, using the wealth of the West, the vast land of the Americas and Australia as bait, attracting countless Great Song scholars to set their eyes on the sea, at least in this world, the task of opening the Age of Discovery will be completed by the Han people.
A year later, Zheng He returned to the Great Song Dynasty with his wealth, and the city of Quanzhou was empty, and Li You led hundreds of civil and military officials to meet him at the dock in person, and praised this seafaring feat through channels such as newspapers, storytellers, and novel notes, which inspired countless merchants to consider building ships and leading fleets to trade in the Western Ocean.
Of course, Li You will not forget the Mongols who still occupy the Central Plains, and three years after recovering Lin'an, Li You once again commanded the army to launch an attack on the Mongols; In the past three years, the civil war of the Mongols became more and more tragic, and the Mongol nobles such as Naiyan, Ashu, and Ananda died one after another, and the strength of the Mongols was weakened by more than half compared to the beginning of Li You's crossing.
In less than a year, the Great Song army recovered Lianghuai, Huguang, and Guanzhong, and Li You personally led the army to break through Bianliang City and recover this city that made countless Song people haunted by their dreams. Of course, Li You did not mean to move the capital to Bianliang, compared to Bianliang, Lin'an was more advantageous in the Age of Discovery.
Since then, Chen Hangyan and Mrs. Xu have recovered Yunnan, Guizhou and Guangxi one after another, and almost all the old lands of the Great Song Dynasty have returned to the hands of the Han people. (To be continued.) )
