Chapter 328: Mobilization of troops against Tibet

Xiao Ming stopped all the work at hand, quickly rushed to the port of Hangzhou, and then rushed directly to Ryukyu by boat, since this unlucky emperor did not enjoy much imperial treatment when he was alive, then Xiao Ming always had to go to see after his death, to be honest, Qinzong also had to thank Xiao Ming for the rest of his life, otherwise he would still stay in the bitter cold city of the Five Kingdoms in Liaodong for the rest of his life.

Xiao Ming rushed to Qinzong's residence in Shuri, and he was greeted by his wife Zhao Fujin, and Qinzong's relatives who accompanied him when he was dying were only his sister! This is undoubtedly a consolation to him.

After Zhao Fujin saw Xiao Ming, he wrapped his body into Xiao Ming's arms, twitched softly, Xiao Ming put his hand on his trembling shoulder, sighed softly, and said to Zhao Fujin: "When Your Majesty left, did you leave anything behind?" ”

Zhao Fujin suddenly choked up, and she cried and said: "Imperial brother Lin Biyan is muttering about returning to the Central Plains, returning to the Central Plains ......!" He really wants to go back to his home in the Central Plains! ”

Xiao Ming said: "You mourn, although Your Majesty will not be able to return to the Central Plains when he is alive, I will arrange for his body to be sent back to the Central Plains, which can be regarded as fulfilling his wish!" ”

Xiao Ming thought, Emperor Qinzong was really unlucky, he originally thought that he could hold on for a few more years, and then the power system of the entire Great Song Dynasty was almost over-complete, and then he was taken to the Central Plains of the mainland, at that time, even if Zhao Gou had any ideas, it was estimated that there was no way, who knew that he would not be able to hold on.

In fact, Zhao Huan himself has been pampered since he was a child, his health is not too good, after being taken captive to the north by the Jin people, he is sad that his family and country are in a bad environment, hard work and wind and cold, the whole body has been healthy, although he has been cultivating on the islands of Ryukyu in the past few years, although Xiao Ming has treated him as preferentially as possible, but this essentially internal disease has been able to kill him!

Zhao Fujin was sad and wept, Xiao Ming persuaded her: "Go back, you go back too, even if it is for Your Majesty to help the soul return home, with your relatives by your side, he will not be lonely!" ”

Zhao Fujin then nodded, and agreed to return to the mainland with Xiao Ming, and by the way, he secretly went to the Central Plains with Qinzong's coffin, and then buried it secretly.

Xiao Ming held a simple memorial for Qinzong in Shuri, there were all kinds of flowers everywhere, Zhao Fujin as the only family member here, naturally the person who guarded the spirit, after the first seven passed, Xiao Ming decided to secretly transport the coffin to the Central Plains of the mainland, and Zhao Fujin accompanied the ship.

Xiao Ming used a very ordinary transport ship, which is a regular flight between Hangzhou Port and Shuri of the Ryukyus, and now there are many regular ships on this route, both passenger and freight, in fact, if you want to talk about immigration, the immigrants from Jiangnan and other places to the Ryukyus may be more conscious, which is still related to some factories built by Xiao Ming in the Ryukyus.

In fact, the environment of Ryukyu and other places is the purpose of immigration, on the one hand, where the environment is really good, and the climate is warm in winter and cool in summer, in addition to the annual typhoon season, basically the temperature is not too low in winter, very suitable as a place for vacation, on the other hand, Ryukyu here and the ancient Chinese legend of the four immortal mountains Penglai Yingzhou abbot Dai Yu seems to have a relationship, so many people still yearn for it, but this is only limited to the rich!

But with the construction of salt works, cement factories and glass factories there, and the expansion of many docks, the number of workers increased, and in the case of a shortage of captive labor, some poor people from passers-by would also come to work here, and even settle more for a long time, after all, although it is an island, it is still vast and sparsely populated.

Of course, Xiao Ming's big immigration plan still covers the Ryukyu Islands, but the climate and environment here are indeed not suitable for too many people to come, it is like a holy place for tourism and vacation, and it needs professional planning and design, and now the villa area in the main residential area, including Xiao Ming's home, has been built, waiting for Ding Jianpeng to develop it when he is free.

After traveling for more than half a day, the ship arrived at the port of Hangzhou, and in terms of a merchant ship mainly engaged in transportation, this speed was already very fast, and Xiao Ming secretly transported Qinzong's coffin ashore! And it was transported to the north by rail, and finally arrived at the Song Mausoleum in the southwest of Bianliang, the eastern capital, and then was buried secretly, followed by Zhao Fujin throughout the whole process!

This matter should be kept very secret, so Emperor Qinzong's tombstone does not have his name on the book, but only engraved a poem made by Qinzong when he lived in Ryukyu, which is a poem "Mountain Sheep":

The reincarnation of the world, the years are wasted, and a hundred years of life pass in an instant, how expensive is it? How is it cheap?

Fish produce poisonous fire, meat produces phlegm, horses carve saddles and have a lot of fat, rich, will pass, poor, will pass.

Signature: The owner of the island of Ban'an! This is the name on a private seal made by Qinzong himself, and the burial of Qinzong when he was buried, all of them are some calligraphy, painting and pen, ink, paper and inkstone created by him on the island.

Zhao Fujin stood beside Xiao Ming, his head resting on his shoulder, the two stood silently in front of Qinzong's tomb for a long time without speaking, Xiao Ming looked at the song "Hillside Goat", opened his mouth and slowly made a song:

The peaks and mountains are like gathering, the waves are like anger, and the mountains and rivers are on the surface of Tongguan Road. Looking at the western capital, he hesitated.

Sad Qin and Han Dynasty passages, the palace and thousands of rooms have been made of soil. Xing, the people suffer; Death, the people suffer.

Of course, he has no talent for lyrics, what he can think of is this "Hillside Goat" by Zhang Yanghao of the Yuan Dynasty, Zhao Fujin looked at Xiao Ming in surprise, and the sympathy for the people of the world in the words was overflowing, and she silently chewed this "Hillside Goat" in her mouth and her feelings for Xiao Ming were one step deeper.

There are still a lot of things to do in the cabinet of the DPRK, after Xiao Ming finished the matter of Qinzong, he took Zhao Fujin back to Kangjing, Zhao Fujin entered the palace to greet the two queen mothers, and Xiao Ming went to the Longtu Pavilion hall of the cabinet office.

Today's life in Tibet is not very good, when the Great Liao Empire, he still existed as a subject of the Liao State, but after so many years, especially after Ye Lihong and others managed the entire Western Regions, the power of Tubo has shrunk very seriously, and now the entire Western Xia Kingdom has been merged into the Great Song Dynasty, and the power of Tubo has quickly retreated in the Qiang land bordering the Western Xia.

Originally, the entire Hexi area in the Western Xia land was basically the distribution of the Western Xia Kingdom and the Tubo forces, but because of the Qilian Mountains across the Qilian Mountains, the Qilian Mountains were inevitably the Qiang land, that is, they belonged to the Tubo sphere of influence, while the north belonged to the Western Xia, and the Gannan region of the traditional Qiang land had long belonged to the influence of the Great Song Dynasty.

In the Kang-Tibet land of Shu, with the economic and trade development and agricultural development of the Great Song Dynasty in recent years, the population has become more and more, and it has gradually eroded the territory of Tubo, and now the entire Dali Kingdom of Yunnan has also become the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, so Tubo is almost sandwiched, of course they are reluctant to do so, and this time the letter to the Great Song Dynasty is also for this matter.

The whole of Tibet is the Tibet region, and the territory is so large and there are so many resources, of course, Xiao Ming will not give up, but the environment here is indeed too harsh, and the land is vast and sparsely populated, so it is difficult to recover the whole thing! But Xiao Ming's hope of completely unifying the entire Chinese territory will not be easily disturbed by this incident.

The tone of the king of Tubo on the national letter is not small, saying that he has 100,000 heavenly soldiers, but for the well-being of the people of the world, he is unwilling to use swords and soldiers, and hopes that the Great Song Dynasty will stop invading the forces of Tubo, and the two sides will be brothers, and can also be used as subjects of the Great Song Dynasty, but the Great Song Dynasty is required to provide them with large-scale assistance.

This matter has not been taken seriously by the ministers in the cabinet, everyone thinks that the entire Tubo land is vast and barren, not a good place, although the Great Song Dynasty is rich, but can not do unnecessary waste for this kind of place, so the Zhongshu Men Province to recover Lu Yihao's reply to this matter is to send envoys to and fro, and then take care of it!

But as soon as Xiao Ming came back, he paid too much attention to this matter, and Fan Zongyi was puzzled, so he asked why? Lu Yihao was also puzzled, and with this question, Xiao Ming pulled over a geographical map, looked at it and fell to the side, grabbed a blank piece of paper again, and began to paint on it.

All the geographical maps of mountains and rivers in the Great Song Dynasty are a bit freehand, not rigorous at all, this is a process of surveying and mapping and scientific mapping, so Xiao Ming can only draw by himself, in fact, the painting is also very good, after the main continental coastline is drawn, it is two important water systems, and then there are several most important mountains in the west!

Xiao Ming had copied the three-dimensional drawings of the machine many times, and after a while, a basic map of Chinese mainland appeared, and he not only drew the actual territory of the current Great Song Dynasty, including Western Xia, Goryeo, and Dali, but also the entire Western Regions and Tibet Tubo into the map, and then he dropped his pen and explained to the two ministers.

"Look, two of you, this is the current territory of the Great Song Dynasty in China! , There is no painting on the sea, but what we are talking about today is land, and now not only the northern Central Plains and the Central Plains have all been recovered, but also the territory of the original Great Liao Empire is also ours, and it also includes the Western Regions! ”

He pointed his finger at the place of Tibet in Tibet, and then said: "It has always been said that the great rivers are the cradles of all ethnic groups, and there is no water system, how can there be no people to live and recuperate, but now the birthplaces of the two largest rivers in the Great Song Dynasty are all here" He grabbed the pen again and circled the terrain of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, and then looked at the two people:

"Tibet is not included in the territory, it is like a mountain pressing on us, which is the source of all the wealth and water sources of my China, so although this place is sinister, we must also take it back!"

Fan Zongyi said: "The West belongs to gold, and gold turns into water...... What the master said is not unreasonable! ”

Lu Yihao said: "But Tubo has its own system, and now, it obviously has no intention of recognizing the suzerainty of my Chinese kingdom!" ”

Xiao Ming said: "Then call ......!" ”

Fan Zongyi and Lu Yihao were speechless for a moment, and said in their hearts: "Why is Taishi Xiao so aggressive? You're going to hit it at every turn! ”

In fact, they also know that since the Tang Dynasty adopted a policy of harmony, the relationship between Tibet and the Central Plains dynasty was once very close, but with the war, the Tubo continued to encroach on the border areas of the Central Plains to infiltrate their power, and the previous Tubo instigated the Qiang rebellion in Gannan Province, when the Western Xia State was very supportive, the mob killed the local officials and people of the Song Dynasty, and the Western Xia and Tubo took the opportunity to seize a lot of land in the Great Song Dynasty.

Now that the Great Song Dynasty is strong, although the other party is soft, but the tone is indeed so tough, it is nothing more than with the help of the moat of the high mountains and snowfields, and the military strength of the Great Song Dynasty is not taken to heart, although Xiao Ming's attitude is somewhat problematic, but the policy towards Tubo The first and auxiliary ministers of the cabinet still passed a resolution to mobilize troops against Tubo.

The first choice of military mobilization is the general, so Han Shizhong, who was still in Liaodong, was urgently called back from Liaodong by Xiao Ming ......!
