However, Zhao Lin was not too happy, but looked expected.

His eyes looked at the civil and military officials below, and said loudly: "Tubo and Mengyuan have been destroyed, and the vast lands of their two countries are all owned by my Great Song Dynasty. ”

"Ladies and gentlemen, what do you think about the disposal plan of these two countries?"

The words fell, and under the court, the ministers immediately began to discuss.

After a while, the secretary of the military department walked out and arched his hand to Zhao Lin: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the land of these two countries is a barren and bitter cold land, and after the army is swept away, it is almost enough to leave a small number of troops to reclaim and station, and set up a symbolic jurisdiction. ”

After the words of the military department Shangshu, many officials nodded.

In their impression, both Tibet and Mengyuan are extremely bad places that are not suitable for long-term residence.

It is like the land of the Central Plains, rich in products, and the wind and rain are smooth.

Tibet was on a plateau, while Mengyuan was a grassland, and it was difficult to grow food on their land.

In fact, there were many emperors who wanted to expand their territory and turn the two places of Tubo and Mengyuan into the inherent territory of the Central Plains Dynasty.

But in the end, they all failed.

It wasn't the army of the Central Plains Dynasty that couldn't conquer these places.

It's that these places are of little value to the Central Plains Dynasty.

Not only could agriculture not be developed, but it was also necessary to spend soldiers, horses, money, and food to defend these places.

Once the strength of the Central Plains Dynasty decreases, these places will inevitably be unable to hold on, and they will fall into the hands of the barbarian nation again.

"Do you all think so?"

Zhao Lin's gaze looked at several other scholars.

"The ministers and others think that the military department Shangshu is right, the land of Tubo and Mengyuan is a barren land, and it does not have much use value for our Great Song Dynasty. ”

"Moreover, the people of these two countries have not been educated by the sages, and they are far from the subjects of our Central Plains. ”

"The imperial court can set up a prefecture, and there is no need to spend too much energy in these places. ”

The attitudes of several Shangshu were surprisingly unanimous.

They all felt that there was no need for these places to be completely under the rule of the Great Song Dynasty, like the lands of Annam, Xirong and Agni.

Zhao Lin shook his head secretly.

The ideas of these courtiers are too traditional and too limited.

Not to his liking.

Zhao Lin's gaze fell on Zhuge Liang, who was at the head of the hundred officials: "Prime Minister Zhuge Cheng, what do you think?"

Zhuge Liang saw that Zhao Lin asked him, and immediately stepped forward and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that although Mengyuan and Tubo are barren lands, they have a vast territory and many people, and if they can be included in the territory of our Great Song Dynasty, it will be beneficial and harmless." ”

"It's just that it's just a military conquest, I'm afraid it's difficult to maintain long-term rule, and I still need to think of countermeasures in advance, so that these barbarian people can be ......happy and convinced of Your Majesty and the rule of my Great Song Dynasty."

Hearing this, many ministers looked at Zhuge Liang in amazement.

This Zhuge Prime Minister actually proposed to include the barren lands of Tubo and Mengyuan into the territory of the Great Song Dynasty?

Don't the other party know that this is a thankless task?

Your Majesty will definitely not agree, right?

"What the prime minister said is very true. ”

However, as soon as Zhao Lin spoke, their eyes almost fell out, and the surprised eyes were all looking at Zhao Lin on the dragon chair.

At this moment, they couldn't help but have some doubts in their hearts, whether His Majesty and the Prime Minister had already colluded, and the two sang and harmonized in this court.

Seeing that the officials were stunned.

"I have thought of a few immature policies, and the prime minister and the hundred officials will listen to them. ”

Zhao Lin sat on the throne of the dragon chair and said: "Tubo and Mengyuan are vast, the domestic situation is very complicated, and the culture of the Central Plains is very different, so we cannot completely use the law of our Great Song Dynasty to rule these two places. ”

"I intend to adopt the method of 'governing raze with raze', and still appoint the Mengyuan people and Tubo people as local administrators, supplemented by officials from our Great Song Dynasty as adjutants to assist in handling local affairs. ”

At the same time, Xu sent Confucian scholars to these two countries with double remuneration to establish schools to educate the people of the two countries and let them learn the culture of the Great Song Dynasty. ”

"As for the armies of these two places, they were completely sent by the court of the Great Song Dynasty, but if anyone had the slightest dissent, they would be bloodily suppressed and nipped in the bud......"

Zhao Lin said slowly, Zhuge Liang was shocked when he heard these words.

He naturally understood that if it was really implemented according to His Majesty's ideas, it would be equivalent to firmly controlling the homeland of Tubo and Mengyuan in the political, cultural, and military aspects of the Great Song Dynasty.

There is simply no place to turn over.

It only takes a few decades for the people of these two countries to completely integrate into their Great Song Dynasty!

There will no longer be any difference from the people in other parts of the Great Song Dynasty.

Your Majesty!

The civil and military officials were all shocked.

Zhao Lin previously purged the courtiers, purged the officialdom, destroyed the countries, and ended the division of the Central Plains.

But now it seems that they were wrong.

Zhao Lin is not content to this!

couldn't satisfy Zhao Lin's appetite.

At this moment, even Zhuge Liang was shocked by the emperor's actions.

Taken together, these initiatives will have a seismic impact on those barbarian countries.

Enough to annihilate a country.

Assimilate it.

Moreover, Zhuge Liang found that Zhao Lin's measures against Tubo and Mengyuan were not only useful for these two places.

Even for other countries, Dashi, Persia, Tianzhu, Dongying, Annam, etc...... All are effective.

Zhuge Liang's expression was extremely shocked.

If Zhao Lin's ideas can be promoted, the Great Song Dynasty will definitely establish an unprecedentedly powerful dynasty!

Before, when His Majesty summoned him, he mentioned that he wanted him to improve his vision and pattern.

He still didn't know what His Majesty was thinking.

But now, he understood.

His Majesty intends to build an empire that has never been seen before.

Surpass all previous emperors.

Become the Emperor of the Ages!

"Your Majesty is really a generation of Holy Lords!"

Zhuge Liang looked at Zhao Lin with joy and sincerity: "Under the guidance of Your Majesty, the Great Song Dynasty will surely go to the extreme prosperity and create a great foundation that will be immortal for all eternity." ”

At this time, Zhuge Liang's heart was also surging.

The world is huge!

Let him exhaust this life's energy and build this great cause with His Majesty!

"Your Majesty, Weichen has a question. ”

Just when the Manchu Dynasty was in turmoil, the official Shangshu stood up and couldn't help but say.

Ling Chen looked at the official book: "Speak!"

Although the official secretary was as excited as the ministers, after calming down, he still found a problem: "Your Majesty's idea is perfect, but if you want to implement it, you need the cooperation of officials and Confucian scholars. ”

"Tubo and Mengyuan are both bitter cold places, and they have always been regarded as barbarians by the subjects of my Great Song Dynasty, but I am afraid that even if they are promised double the remuneration, there will still not be too many officials and Confucian scholars who are willing to go to these two places. ”

The official secretary said cautiously.
