The two rivers were recovered, and the sixteen states of Yanyun returned to the rule of the Great Song Dynasty!

Bianjing, which has haunted countless Song people, has also returned to the embrace of the Great Song Dynasty after the Song Dynasty crossed to the south for a hundred years!

The newspapers are full of articles, Jinling, Lin'an, Yangzhou, Jinghu, Sichuan, and then to the distant Hexi, the Great Song Dynasty is boiling in the sea, countless Song people, scholars with wide robes and big sleeves, ranger students who are rampant with swords, hermit monks who live in the mountains and forests, and even women who are deep in the boudoir, three religions and nine streams, have gone to the north through the Haihe River and the official road, or to Bianjing, or to Taiyuan, or to Yanjing, for a time the sea and land are busy, a lively and busy scene.

Although the government has repeatedly ordered Henan to fully recover, and Lianghe is still suppressing bandits, it is difficult to stop people's enthusiasm for going north.

It is no wonder that people think this way, even hundreds of thousands of Mongolian iron cavalry are not the opponents of the Great Song Dynasty, and the bandits of the rabble are the opponents of the officials and troops of the Great Song Dynasty?

In the canal, Yangzhou section, dozens of steam ships emitted black smoke and headed north. On the deck, the armor soldiers standing with guns stood solemnly along the side of the ship, and on the deck, a group of people waited and looked at each other, laughing and laughing, and full of ambition.

"The bereaved people are in tears, and they look south to Wang Shi for another year. The city of Tokyo has been recovered, and there is no need to look south again! ”

The original Sichuan system made Cui He speak, with gray hair, but he was in good spirits, and it was difficult to see the decay.

"Since the shame of Jingkang, the Song family has crossed to the south, and now it is one hundred and six years. Wang Shi made three northern expeditions, the first two of which were in a panic, and he never even stepped on the Yellow River. The soldiers were lost, the people of Li suffered, and the prestige of the royal family of the Great Song Dynasty was lost. Now Wang Qi's north finger is like a broken bamboo, and the old place is restored, and even the sixteen states of Yanyun are under the rule of my Great Song Dynasty! Thinking like crazy, thinking like crazy! ”

The one who spoke was Dai Gu, the leader of the Jianghu Poetry School, who was already over the age of sixties, but his waist was straight, and he was not inferior to a strong man.

"Ladies and gentlemen, you still don't know, the emperor has sent 30,000 royal divisions west into Gaochang Kingdom, and it won't be long before the Western Regions is under the rule of my Great Song Dynasty!"

Liu Kezhuang, the director of the Propaganda Department, was impassioned and sighed.

He is the head of the Propaganda Department, the important news of the imperial court and important military and political affairs, and he is naturally the first person to handle it.

"Hexi is already 4,000 miles away, and the Western Regions are too far away, so go 8,000 miles. I'm really ...... It's a lot of land! ”

The former military department Shangshu Xuanxuan sincerely lamented the long road to the west.

It's a pity that the west is all land, and there are no "steam boats", otherwise it would be only half a month to travel thousands of miles a day. ”

"From Shaanxi to Hexi, from Hexi to the Western Regions, it is completely possible to build a railway, no slower than a steam ship. With the eloquence of the Great Song Emperor, I am afraid that this matter is already brewing! ”

Ge Hong and Cui asked and answered, but were picked up again by Liu Kezhuang on the side.

From the following point of view, the ruling minister Yelu Chucai and the officials of the Ministry of Water went north together to explore the Yellow River and solve the problem of the flooding of the Yellow River. This move shows that the first major thing Your Majesty will do next is the diversion of the Yellow River. ”

"The diversion of the Yellow River is beneficial to the present generation, and it will cover the future generations. His Majesty is people-oriented, and his pure heart is impressive. It's just that it consumes people's power so much, I'm afraid it's not a blessing for the country! ”

Xuan Xuan sighed heartily.

Every time the emperor is generous, he is a little worried, will the emperor be like Emperor Yang Guang of Sui, abuse the people's power, so that it will flourish and decline?

"Your Majesty has set up an anti-corruption department in government affairs, clarified the rule of officials, eliminated excessive taxes and miscellaneous taxes, and eased the people's strength; Economically, the sea trade is widely opened and all industries are prosperous; militarily recovered Dali, Annan, and Western Xia, and now the Central Plains and the sixteen states of Yanyun have been restored; Three generations later, such as Your Majesty, it is really an emperor through the ages! Just ......"

Cui He paused for a moment, and then continued:

"10,000 years is too long. His Majesty is too anxious to do things, too anxious to achieve success, and is afraid that he will leave a disaster in the future. I hope that the courtiers can dissuade His Majesty and slow down his pace, so as not to provoke a popular uprising and the world is in turmoil. ”

"Cui Gong, you are not in the center, I don't know the details."

Xuan Xuan was unceremonious and directly disputed Choi's views.

"The Son of Heaven loves the people like a son, and the subjects of the world are not grateful to Dade, how can the people say it? For example, the diversion of the Yellow River, when the grain used at that time was brought in from overseas, the people could eat enough to eat, undertake errand work, and there was no worry about abusing the people's power. Cui Gongda can rest assured that it is. ”

Cui He's old face blushed and bowed.

"Xuangong, I have been taught."

"Cui Gong, don't dare."

Xuan Xuan solemnly replied.

"You said, Your Majesty let the Yellow River be rerouted, and this time you will drive north, will you set Bianjing City as the national capital and move the capital to the north?"

Suddenly, Ge Hong asked with a smile.

On another warship, Yelu Chucai, the new governor of the council, also asked Ge Hong the same thing.

"Mr. Yeru, what do you mean ......?"

In the cabin, Zhao Hong waved his hand and motioned for Yelu Chucai to sit down and speak.

"Your Majesty, Henan is in dilapidation, if Your Majesty moves the capital to Tokyo City, and the national capital drives the prosperity of Henan's industries, the Central Plains can be restored as soon as possible, and you can also control Shaanxi, Hexi, and even the Western Regions to the west."

Yelu Chucai's words made Zhao Hong nod slightly.

The national capital must be the cultural center of a dynasty. Bianjing City is located in the Yellow River Basin, and it is in the middle of it.

Since the Three Emperors and Five Emperors, the center of Chinese civilization has been the area around Luoyang in the Yellow River Valley. The two Han Dynasty, Sui and Tang dynasties took Chang'an and Luoyang as the centers of civilization. The capital of the Northern Song Dynasty was Bianliang, but it was still in the Yellow River valley near Luoyang.

In the Southern Song Dynasty, the capital city reached Lin'an, south of the Yangtze River, and Chinese culture tended to be introverted, and it was difficult to restore the atmosphere of the Han and Tang dynasties.

Moving the capital to Tokyo City and making the Central Plains economy recover quickly seems to be a good choice.

"Your Majesty, Bianjing City has been entrenched by the Jin State for a long time, and it has been Huhua for a long time, and I am afraid that the smell of blood is too heavy. And the land of Henan is full of devastation, and His Majesty wants to move the capital to Bianjing, which may not be the best policy. ”

The capital was moved to Tokyo City, but Prime Minister Shin Toku-so had a different opinion.

"Your Majesty, my Great Song Dynasty has colonized overseas, and just one Africa, its territory is no different from that of the Great Song Dynasty. The South Sea, the Indian Ocean, the Atlantic Ocean, and many more. In the next few years, our Great Song Dynasty sailors will immigrate to North and South America, and its territory is far larger than the territory of our Great Song Dynasty, and the territory of our Great Song Dynasty has moved southward significantly. All countries must control the world, and the land south of the Yangtze River is suitable for its benefits. Your Majesty thinks twice. ”

Wei Liaoweng, the governor of the political affairs and the secretary of the military department, also insisted that the national capital was Jiangnan.

Zhao Hong smiled slightly, bowed his head and pondered.

"What the two ministers said was very true. However, if Your Majesty moves the capital to Bianjing City or Yanjing City, it will definitely be able to restore the Central Plains or the North Land as soon as possible, and the righteousness of China will return as soon as possible. Second, Mongolia still has spare strength, and the northern border trouble has always been the first priority of our Great Song Dynasty. I want to restore the Western Regions in the Great Song Dynasty, the south of the Yangtze River is too far away to be controlled, and the Central Plains or Yanjing are too close to the Western Regions. The two ministers are detailed. ”

With firearms, and the sixteen states of Yanyun, there is already a guarantee for choosing the Central Plains to build the capital.

Yelu Chucai was blunt, and Zhen Dexiu and Wei Liaoweng no longer insisted.

The northern nomads have always been a threat to the Central Plains Dynasty, whether it was the Han and Tang dynasties or the Song dynasty. Yelu Chucai is so outspoken, which shows that his heart is open.

"Whether it's Tokyo City or Yanjing City, let's make a decision when I finish my northern tour."

Zhao Hong hesitated for a moment, then continued:

"Mr. Yelu, if I want to use troops on the grassland, how should I plan?"

Hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers and more than 100,000 iron horsemen in the Great Song Dynasty, if you don't use it, it seems to be too wasteful.

"Your Majesty, Mongolia lives by water, and if you want to use troops in the steppe, I am afraid that the gains outweigh the losses. His Majesty has sent troops into the Western Regions, as long as the immigrants are on the real side, the Great Song Dynasty will have a firm foothold in the Western Regions, and Mongolia will not be able to plunder, and within ten years, Mongolia will naturally decline, and sooner or later it will fall under Chinese rule. ”

Yelu Chucai was outspoken again, and Zhen Dexiu and Wei Liaoweng both breathed a sigh of relief.

The grassland desert is vast and immense, and if the emperor really uses troops outside the country, he will really be reckless.

"Mr. Jerry, what you say is very true. But what if Wokotai uses troops against my Great Song Dynasty? I can't just watch my Chinese people being slaughtered. ”

Zhao Hong frowned and said.

The grassland desert, the bitter cold land, without food and clothing, will definitely harass the border and poison all living beings. It's better to be aggressive than to defend blindly.

Moreover, today's Great Song Dynasty border army has many cavalry and sharp firearms, and it has long been not afraid of Mongolian iron cavalry.

"Your Majesty, in the battle of the two rivers, the elite of the Mongolian iron cavalry was lost, and without Gaochang in Eastern Liao, the vitality of Mongolia was greatly damaged. As long as my Great Song Dynasty is stuck in the throat of Gaochang Kingdom, which is going west, Mongolia will not be able to plunder, and it will naturally decline. Your Majesty can arrange heavy troops in Hamili, Don't lose Bali, and Qiuzi, and immigrate to the real side. If Your Majesty is gracious, the minister is willing to go to the Western Regions to share your Majesty's worries! ”

Yelu Chucai's words made Zhao Hong laugh.

"Mr. Yelu's advice, I will consider it carefully. Mr. Yelu has entered the court, and I am of great use, so let's do what is in front of me first. ”

It seems that Wang Jian led an army of 30,000 into the Western Regions, which was a wise choice.

The diversion of the Yellow River and the restoration of the Central Plains and the Northland should be the next priority.

Zhao Hongjunchen was discussing in the cabin, on the deck, Wan Yanchun looked at the surging river, and he was alone.

Can she persuade her brother to go north this time?

She and Zhao Hong, do they have a future?

Wan Yanchun was meditating, and a gentle cough came from behind her, she turned her head, only to see Anar walking up.

"Are you going to Bianjing City too?"

Wan Yanchun was stunned for a moment, blurted out, and felt sour in his heart.

But when the newcomer laughs, the old man cries. This beautiful woman from the Western Regions with all kinds of charms is afraid that she is already Zhao Hong's guest in the scene.

"Princess, Your Majesty has affection for you. After you left that day, Your Majesty sighed, did not eat or drink at night, and was alone in the imperial study in a daze. I want to say a few words, I don't know if you want to hear it? ”

Anal went straight to the point and opened the conversation.

"Say it."

Wan Yanchun's heart was hot. It sounds like the negative person still has her in his heart.

Anal observed her words and continued:

"Jingkang's shame, presumably the princess knows. If the Song people want to recapture the Central Plains, they can't wait to kill the Jin people, especially your Jin clan, I'm afraid you also know. What do you think, Your Majesty? ”

"He is the king of a country, and everyone in the Great Song Dynasty admires him. He wants to spare my Dajin Sect, isn't it easy? ”

Wan Yanchun couldn't help it, and said indignantly.

The negative person still refuses to do more for her. What a kindness!

"Your Majesty can spare your Dajin Clan. But if your emperor's brother and clan don't surrender, what should your majesty do? ”

Anal asked rhetorically.

"Can't he let Jin Guo go? Is it so important to dominate the world? ”

Wan Yanchun is still lingering.

"Princess, you let the Great Song Kingdom ruin and rob other people's things, how can you still be so arrogant? You just don't have power. Now that your Dajin Kingdom is about to perish, and you have to bring those innocent people to your burial, you really don't deserve mercy! ”

Anal shook her head and refuted Yan Chunlai, showing no mercy.

After staying in the Song Realm for a long time, she has been in the Jinling Martial Arts Hall for a long time, and she is no longer familiar with the shame of Jingkang on the stele, and she sighs deeply.

"You say it nicely. If I put it on you, I will destroy your Gaochang Kingdom. See if you're still not talking nonsense like that? ”

Wan Yanchun's face was red, and he refuted unconvinced.

"Princess, you don't know yet, I, Gaochangguo, have been under the rule of the Great Song Dynasty."

Anal whispered, she looked at the stunned Wan Yanchun, and shook her head gently.

"Princess, the shame of Jingkang, the hatred of destroying the country, the soldiers of the King of the Great Song Dynasty are coming to the city. Your Majesty has given you a chance, I don't know why you are still so arrogant? Do you want Your Majesty to beg you to surrender? Your Majesty is open to the big gold net, you can't always take it for granted. Have you ever thought about it in his place? ”

Such a stubborn woman is really rare.

"Princess, if you can't persuade your emperor brother to return to the Great Song Dynasty, the Song army will only be able to attack the city at that time. At that time, the jade will be burned, and not only will your brother be killed, but you and Your Majesty will also end up without a problem. ”

Anal left, and Wan Yanchun looked ahead, demented.

Is this really the fate of her and her Dajin Kingdom?
