Chapter 299: Agent

"So, you're going to go to Liao?" Liu Chenggong's expression was very strange, and he couldn't tell whether he was worried or happy.

After finishing the business of Xianyuan Pavilion that night, Ding Yang began to prepare for the trip. Of course, before that, it is necessary to entrust a suitable person to stay in charge.

Don't think about it, at present, only the best friend is the most suitable person.

"Not only do I want to go to Liao, I also want to go to see Xixia at this time, if time and energy allow, I also want to go to Dali and Dayue to go around. If you want to build a great Chinese cultural circle, you must go on a field trip. ”

Ding Yang has already considered it in detail, and his future goals have been thoroughly determined.

"Greater Chinese Cultural Circle?" Liu Chenggong paused for a moment, and then said in surprise: "So you are really ready to turn this space-time plane universe into your kingdom?" ”

"Yes, I was still hesitating, but after listening to Xiao Chaoqing's words today, I was touched a lot."

"Xiao Chaoqing, is that the envoy of the Liao State?" Seeing Ding Yang nodding, Liu Chenggong couldn't help but become interested: "Tell me, what kind of stimulation did he give you?" So quickly you have the determination to act. ”

"Hey, you may not believe it when you say it, do you know what Xiao Chaoqing said to me? The Liao State, that is, the Khitan, is the orthodoxy of today's China, and the one that inherits the political heritage of the Tang Dynasty! ”

Liu Chenggong almost couldn't believe his ears: "Huh? He's joking, right? If the Liao State is considered to be orthodox in China, then what is the Great Song Dynasty? ”

Ding Yang pouted: "Hmph, what's it?" Of course, it is regarded as a secession regime in a corner of the country! ”

He ...... Did he really say that? How could it be! At present, the Great Song Dynasty is the Northern Song Dynasty, and it is not a corner of the Southern Song Dynasty! The land of the Central Plains and the water towns in the south of the Yangtze River are all within the territory! How can it be regarded as a local separatist force? ”

"Huh, Nakahara? Gangnam? Which Huaxia Zhengshuo only has such a little territory? You see, this is a map of the Song and Liao periods that I printed out from the Internet before I came, and look at how small the Song Dynasty is on it! Let's see, the north is all the territory of the Liao State, the northwest is the Western Xia and Uighurs, the west is the Tibetan tribes, and the southwest is Dali and Dayue. ”

"Uh...... It seems to be quite small! Liu Chenggong picked up the map, and he didn't think it was a comprehensive look, but now that he looked at it, it was really unwilling!

Who knew that Ding Yang casually took out three maps from the void and threw them to his dead friend: "Look at the Tang Dynasty in the Zhenguan period, and the Tang Dynasty in the Tianbao period!" Even the last Tang Dynasty after the Anshi Rebellion, the territory is far wider than today's Great Song Dynasty! ”

Liu Chenggong looked at these three maps of the territory of the Tang Dynasty and compared them with the current map of Song Liao, and this comparison was suddenly extremely unbalanced.

The map of the territory of the Tang Dynasty during the Zhenguan period, not to mention the current Xizhou Uighurs, Huangtou Uighurs, Western Xia, Dali, Dayue and Liao, the territory of the Tang Dynasty has directly overwhelmed Afghanistan, and there are governorships in Persia.

The Aral Sea, Lake Balkhash, Lake Belga, and the like are all within the territory, and Inner Mongolia and Outer Mongolia are almost all included, and only the northeast is occupied by the Murwei and the Ya tribes from the spring city above.

During the Tianbao period, the Turks became stronger, and the territory of Central Asia and West Asia of the Tang Dynasty shrank a lot, but the entire Northeast was included in the territory.

Even after the Anshi Rebellion, the Uighurs became bigger, the Bohai Kingdom arose, and the Heishui Tartar was rebuilt, but the Tang Dynasty still controlled the steppe. At least the Western Xia and Dayue kingdoms were still within their borders, and their territory was more than twice the size of today's Northern Song Dynasty.

The more I looked at it, the more I had nothing to say, and it took a long time for Liu Chenggong to hold back a sentence: "Huaxia doesn't look at whose territory is big, it should be an orthodox symbol!" What qualifications does the Liao State have to claim to be the orthodox heir of China? ”

Ding Yang nodded: "Yes, Liaoguo also said so!" Huaxia should be a symbolic noun, not to say that the Song Dynasty occupied the Central Plains and Jiangnan even if it was orthodox in China. By the way, our Nansmita Universe Republic at that time also said the same! Because of this, they insist that they are the orthodox China, and we are not. ”

"This ...... This...... How unreasonable, how unreasonable! We are not Huaxia Zhengshuo, but they are? Hmph, it's ridiculous! ”

"It's not just the geography, it's also the question of influence. At present, it seems that the territory of Liao's influence has penetrated into Central Asia, and it is said that the people of those places regard Liao's country as Chinese. In their language, the Chinese pronunciation has become Khitan ......"

"Khitan?" Liu Chenggong was suddenly annoyed: "How can this be considered Huaxia?" Are they blind? ”

"I can't help it!" Ding Yang shrugged: "The nomads are all afraid of power but not virtue, the Tang Dynasty has subdued them, they will recognize the Tang Dynasty, and the Liao State will subdue them, so they will naturally recognize the Khitan." The Great Song Dynasty couldn't even handle the Western Xia, let alone the Western Regions! ”

"Then you should hurry up! Go find out the information early, and then come back and call too. You don't have to worry about anything here, I'll keep an eye on it all for you! This Great Song Dynasty is good at everything, whether it is culture or technology, all of them are very good, but this military aspect is ...... Alas, how exactly are you going to do it? Want to build up your power, overthrow the Zhao and Song dynasties, and rebuild a new Chinese empire? ”

"No!" Ding Yang shook his head: "After all, I am not a person from this time and space, and the establishment of a dynasty will be cut off because there is no inheritance, and then it will be divided and lead to a full-scale civil war again." ”

Liu Chenggong thought about it carefully, and it seemed that it was really like this. Even if he moved a revolution and overthrew the Zhao and Song dynasties, with Ding Yang's mentality, he might not be willing to stay in the plane for a while.

But why was he so sure that the dynasty he had established would be shaken by the lack of an heir?

As he raised questions, Ding Yang explained helplessly: "Our traversal behavior is a reverse energy transmission, which will lead to a lot of trouble. The most direct is the loss of reproductive ability, and it is impossible to conceive the opposite sex at all. Only by returning to our time, getting rid of this reverse energy transmission process, will the reproduction capacity in the cell gradually return to normal. ”

"I see, no wonder!" Liu Chenggong thought about it and seemed to think of something else.

However, he soon asked a new question again: "Then even if you can't reproduce in this plane, it's a big deal to go back to our plane to find a wife and have children, and then bring them over to inherit the dynasty you have established!" How could the inheritance be broken? ”

"Are you really stupid, or are you pretending to be stupid?" Ding Yang despised his dead friend like an idiot: "I brought my son from modern time and space to inherit, but who should he find to inherit?" He's going to lose his ability to reproduce because he's traveling through the plane! Could it be that our family will play the game of crossing through and having children for generations in the future? Even if I'm not afraid of trouble, I can't inherit my ability to travel through time and space! ”

"Ahem...... Well, I'm a little too sure. Then you can't play in person, you can only find an agent! Even if Liu Chenggong doesn't have much political experience, he understands the truth of hiding behind the scenes to support agents to manipulate the world.

This is almost always a trick that has been played rotten in later generations, whether it is my empire on which the sun never sets, or the great beautiful United States, they are all masters of playing this trick.

Even the neighboring Fuso Dominion became active in domestic politics after Xinhai, and went around supporting cronies and agents to complete the plan of holding a behind-the-scenes holding. It's just that in the end, because the national policy was too radical, it failed shamefully.

Otherwise, it will really be gradually infiltrated and slowly eaten away, and the final result is really hard to say!

Ding Yang also understood this and knew that the benefits were not small, so he made the final decision.

"That's right! From the current point of view, the Emperor Shenzong of the Song Dynasty, Zhao Ji, is a very accomplished and enterprising emperor. So I simply supported the reform of the Great Song Dynasty and established a new Song Dynasty in my mind! ”

"That's it! Then if you want to support the reform of the Great Song Dynasty, are you going to hide behind the scenes to promote Wang Anshi's reform? ”

"Well, Wang Anshi's change of law is indeed good. It's a pity that it's a little superficial, and it only touches the skin and improves it, just like Li Hongzhang in the late Qing Dynasty struggled to maintain. If you really want to transform the new Song Dynasty, you have to get to the core and fundamental issues. Therefore, I want to follow up on the opportunity of this law change to complete a comprehensive political, military, and commercial reform of the Great Song Dynasty! ”

"All...... Comprehensive reform! Oh my God, it's not a minor operation, you're ready to turn it upside down! ”

"Yes, it is a complete overthrow and the reconstruction of a new Song Dynasty. Without this, it is impossible to rebuild the prestige of Huaxia. The influence since the Han and Tang dynasties will gradually be lost. Since this is my plane, I can't watch all these lives. ”

"That'...... What if someone gets in the way of your subversive change? Historically, Wang Anshi changed the law, but he encountered resistance from many conservatives and ultimately failed. ”

"Hmph, didn't you say it, this is my space-time plane, so only I have the final say." Ding Yang showed a cold smile: "Although I am hidden behind the scenes, I don't mind raising the sword in my hand at all, and let iron and blood complete the change." Whoever dares to stop the wheel of history must be ready to be crushed to pieces! ”

Hearing these resounding words, Liu Chenggong could fully feel the determination and strength in Ding Yang's heart.

With the support of all kinds of soft and hard resources that he can get behind him, there is no doubt that no one can stop the completion of the entire plan.

The Conservative Party, which historically hindered Wang Anshi's reform of the law, was not a matter at all in front of Ding Yang.

"But I've heard that the conservatives are very powerful......"

Without waiting for the dead friend to finish speaking, Ding Yang flew over lightly and said: "Just eradicate it!" Before you came, I had already personally sent the conservative triumvirate Fu Bi, Wen Yanbo and Sima Guang back to heaven! ”

"Sizzle...... Well, even if conservatives you don't worry. And what about the emperor? What if Zhao Ji is shaken? What if you don't want to support you to change the law? ”

"Hehe, it's as simple as that! If he doesn't support it, then it's better to change to an emperor who supports me. Anyway, there are many clans in the Zhao family, so it doesn't matter if you change the Taizong lineage to the Taizu lineage! ”

Now Liu Chenggong has nothing to say at all, he has the confidence that even the emperor will say that he will change it, what are you afraid of not being able to do?
