Chapter 243: The Situation
Which one is more difficult to fight the world than to rule the world?
If you have to say it to Li Youran, you can fight the world without following the rules, and you must follow the rules to govern the world.
Therefore, it is more difficult to rule the world.
After the five small ones finished discussing, the next step was to gather all the city lords on the peninsula, about four or five hundred people.
Then tell them how to govern the world in the future.
But whoever was originally the lord of a certain city will still be the lord of this city next.
And the court will send an official to take care of the affairs of the city with the lord of the city.
Meanwhile......
There shall be no soldiers in the city, no soldiers in the county, and those who possess armor and crossbows shall be regarded as complicity in rebellion.
The rebellion of the lord of a city is regarded as the rebellion of the people of the whole city.
When the time comes, the whole city will be connected, and those who report the city lord's rebellion in advance can be the next city lord.
From today onwards, all Goguryeo, Baekje, and Silla citizens will be exempted from paying taxes for two years.
……
Decrees were issued.
Soon, both in Goguryeo and in Baekje and Silla, the people slowly settled down.
It should be said that none of them, who have been devastated by the war, hope to really fight again.
Fighting, fighting for power, is just a game for the upper class.
As long as they are given plenty of freedom, they will not follow the original Three Kingdoms Relics to make trouble.
Meanwhile......
With their eyes, they can also stare at the every move of these city lords.
Other than that......
The five small ones also held the imperial examination.
Although it is actually useless, because most of the locations should be occupied.
But......
But it can give hope to everyone.
It's a pity that there are still too few people with lofty ideals in the Tang Dynasty who come to Liao.
are simply not enough.
However, the imperial examination can make up for this.
……
The policy of differentiation naturally made some city lords very uncomfortable.
Because this is clearly for them, but now that others are swordsmen and fish and meat, they can only be obedient and obedient.
In the face of the general trend, they are of no use at all as the lord of a city.
There are also some people who think that if there are no soldiers in the city, what if there are foreign enemies?
Raised their own doubts.
Although Goguryeo, Baekje, and Silla are now gone, the Khitan and Xi, as well as the Jin Ya, these tribes still exist.
Now they are peaceful, but that doesn't mean they won't fight in the future.
Of course.
This issue must be discussed separately.
Li Zhi moved the government military system over.
The lord of the city does not care about the soldiers in peacetime, and the captain of Zhichong is responsible for training the troops to defend the city, and when it is time to fight, he will be temporarily appointed.
And the Oshichong Mansion, not every city will have it.
Only cities close to the border will have them.
……
With the demise of Baekje.
The Khitan and Xi, as well as the Yan Ya, also successively paid tribute to the Liao State.
No way.
The Liao State is too strong.
Maybe the next one will be you.
Right now......
All they have to do is pretend to be grandchildren.
Li Zhi also explained the pros and cons to them. ….
Don't think about coming over and plundering, otherwise, the Liao Kingdom will destroy their entire clan.
In fact......
Threats like this don't mean much.
Because if the day really comes when you are going to go hungry, others don't care whether they will be wiped out or not.
It is better to die in a war than in the grassland
, starved to death in the forest.
The Khitan and Xi, as well as the Yan Ya, also proposed to buy grain from the Liao State.
Liao naturally agreed.
Merely......
What you buy and sell, you can't see what you have, you have to see what Liao has in Liao.
Also, the price must also be set by the Liao State.
By the end of the fifth year of Yanping.
All kinds of treasures from Goguryeo, Baekje, Silla, Khitan, Xi, and Jin of the Liao Kingdom are piled up in the warehouse.
The five little ones and the wives of the five little ones each have a mink fur shawl.
And there are a lot of gold and silver jewelry.
The only thing that is still bad is that the palace has not yet been built.
If a tall and majestic palace is not built, it is not enough to reflect the majesty of the Liao State.
Of course!
More on that later.
Now, the main thing is to build a railway between the mining area and the coal area.
……
At the end of the year.
Due to the delay in receiving news from the eldest brother of the Imperial Son, and the health of Emperor Kotoku was also deteriorating day by day, civil strife began in the Japanese Kingdom again.
Some people say that they haven't heard from the eldest brother and prince for so long, and I'm afraid it's gone.
Emperor Kotoku had to take his sick man and set off across the sea to find the eldest brother, but the result was ......
The news I got was that the eldest brother was defeated and captured on the other side, and is now being imprisoned by the king of Liao.
Just right!
Since the Japanese kingdom has come, let's take the money and the woman to ransom it.
Originally, if Emperor Kotoku had not died, he would have been able to redeem people, but the question was......
Now he happened to be seriously ill, and then the ministers of his country looked at each other, and decided that they could not let the eldest brother come back.
With more than 30,000 people and 40,000 people, he went to help Baekje attack Silla, but was completely annihilated.
Does he still have the face to come back?
The followers of the eldest brother, the younger brother of the prince, the prince of the sea people, immediately began to encourage the prince of the sea people to seize power.
After all......
This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Although the Wa State at this time had already undergone the reform of Dahua, the domestic ideology should be relatively unified.
But......
As for who will be the king of the Wa Kingdom in the future, it should not be so unified.
As soon as Emperor Kotoku died, the Umito Emperor immediately let his people take control of the government.
And......
He also forcibly amended the will so that he could succeed to the throne himself.
Afterwards......
It must be a study of the Southern Song Dynasty, and it is impossible to redeem the eldest brother and the prince, not to mention that after the redemption is returned, there will definitely be more people in the country who support his brother.
When his brother Emperor Kotoku Fuzo reformed, he was still playing with mud on the sidelines.
Even if they really wanted to redeem it, they wouldn't be able to take out that much money.
He will not ransom the women of his own country.
That's not what a shame is!
The next thing they have to do is to prepare for war!
The enemy has already reached Baekje, and next, is it still far from their Wa Kingdom?
For the selfish approach of the prince of the sea people, there is no way for the domestic ministers.
Anyway, though.
They and the prince of the sea people must be both prosperous and lossy.
Soon......
The whole country took action and began to build cities and defensive lines.
In order to hope that one day in the future, if the Liao State really fights, maybe it will be of some use.
As for those who scold themselves behind their backs, the prince of the sea people naturally makes the other party shut up forever at all costs.
In fact, everyone knows who did it.
It's just that everyone doesn't say it.
In order to prevent some people from restoring in the name of their mothers, the prince of the sea people also put his own
The mother was also locked up and kept under surveillance around the clock.
The seeds of civil strife have been planted, but I don't know when they will take root and sprout.
