Chapter 869: The old treacherous and cunning Cui Shangshu

When the two countries' embassies sent the news back to China, it caused an uproar in the courts of the two countries.

The courts of the two countries were not satisfied with the agreement between the two realms, but the wood was already in the boat, and the person who sent the letter back had seen with their own eyes how big the warship was that Wang Cezhi and others were sitting on, and described the strength and strength of the Great Song Dynasty to the country, and in the end, the courts of the two countries could only reluctantly accept the agreement between the two realms.

It's just that the difference is that the Luo side once sent an envoy to Bianjing of the Great Song Dynasty, and he really knows how powerful the Great Song Dynasty really is.

However, the fat state only listened to these envoys and had no concept of the power of the Great Song Dynasty, and while accepting the agreement between the two worlds, they who originally admired Confucian culture buried their hostility towards the Great Song Dynasty in their hearts.

And when the agreement between the two realms was transmitted back to the Great Song Dynasty, it also caused a controversy in the Great Song Dynasty.

Some non-combative officials believed that Wang Cezhi's actions dragged the Great Song into an unnecessary whirlpool, and caused trouble and burden to the Great Song Dynasty in vain.

For the hawks in the court, this kind of behavior is equivalent to expanding the territory and has been affirmed by the hawks.

And Zhao Jun was already smiling from ear to ear when he got the news, and he was secretly happy in his heart, his decision to send Wang Cezhi over was indeed right, and he really achieved the result he wanted.

That's right, the reason why Wang Cezhi proposed this escrow method was instigated by Zhao Jun, and when the domestic situation of the two sides and the willingness to cease the war, Zhao Jun immediately discovered the exploitable point.

Through the idea of an urgent truce between the two countries, as well as the imminent turmoil in the two countries, Zhao Jun judged that it was the best time to extend the tentacles of the Great Song into the two countries at this time, as long as the Great Song could reach a tentacle into the territory of the two countries, Zhao Jun had a way to finally annex the two countries.

And with this idea, Zhao Jun has not been a day or two, from the beginning of the sale of weapons, Zhao Jun began to lay out, first using weapons to continuously bleed the two countries, and at the same time using the resources of the two countries to fill the vacancy in the Great Song Dynasty.

In fact, over the years, the Great Song Dynasty has earned a lot of gold, silver and resources from the two countries, and the Great Song Dynasty is absolutely responsible for the situation that the two countries have ended up in today.

But that's what Zhao Jun wants.

When the two countries were weak, the tentacles of the Great Song Dynasty were extended into the two countries, and then the Great Song Dynasty could use the thirteen prefectures in its hands as the basis to continuously use the culture of the Great Song Dynasty to absorb the people of the two countries.

At the same time, they can continue to suck the blood of the two countries, and when they react, I am afraid that the two countries will not know what they will be weakened into.

At that time, Zhao Jun can directly take the two countries and set up new counties on the territory of the two countries after finding a reasonable reason.

And use the two countries as a springboard to open the passage of the Great Song Dynasty to the Luzon Islands in Southeast Asia.

Anyway, Zhao Jun had already planned, since the domestic territory would one day not be able to meet the needs of the people of the Great Song Dynasty, he would do his best to expand the territory of the Great Song Dynasty infinitely while he was alive, and he had the ability to do so with the strength in his current hands.

When the family property is bigger, even if there is a loser in the future, the defeat can be slower, as the so-called emaciated camel is bigger than a horse.

Besides, even if the Great Song Dynasty is gone in the future, as long as he has occupied these territories, the Song people in the future can also say to the outside world that it has not been since ancient times?

It's good to be a famous teacher.

As for the damage of the continuous war to the people of the Great Song Dynasty.

Look at the life of the people of the Great Song Dynasty now, as long as they can continue to win, they will always be able to fill the country through war dividends and let the people live a good life, so how can the people hate war.

It's better to make the Great Song Dynasty a country that likes war than to become the big coward in his previous life, right?

Anyway, in Zhao Jun's opinion, even if the Great Song Dynasty died because of belligerence in the end, it would be better than dying because of cowardice, this thing doesn't sound good, and future generations will be ashamed to say it!

Zhao Junke can't afford to lose this face!

In the court, when the courtiers of the two factions were arguing about whether to send a garrison, Zhao Jun directly decided to send a garrison.

And this number cannot be less.

According to the information sent back by Wang Cezhi and others and the secret guards, the total population of the thirteen prefectures that were taken over by the Great Song Dynasty should now be around 120,000, of which most of them are old and weak, women and children, and the young and strong are very few due to the war, accounting for only 10,000.

According to the principle of ten people raising one army, the Great Song Dynasty could send an army of 10,000 people to the local area to station.

But in this way, the Thirteen Prefectures are already barely able to feed these 10,000 troops, let alone divide the tax and silver between the two countries.

In this way, the food items are too ugly.

However, Zhao Jun decided to send 10,000 troops even if it was to be put on the line by the Great Song Dynasty first.

The number of this army cannot be small.

And the Great Song Dynasty does not need to be cushioned for too long, Zhao Jun believes that he will soon be able to develop the local economy with his own wrists, and there will be no need for the Great Song Dynasty cushion at that time.

Moreover, with the Thirteen Mansions in hand, it is equivalent to the maritime merchants of the Great Song Dynasty having their own ports where they can dock, and the benefits that will be brought are huge, enough to make people blush, and it will also make Zhao Jun's arrangement easier to achieve.

With no reason to garrison the army outside, the court still has to take out the money, the household department was naturally reluctant at first, and Cui Wen, the old man, even more disagreed.

But when Zhao Jun proposed that it could be fully funded by the internal funds, the old man hesitated in his heart.

According to past experience, His Majesty is willing to do it in full, and it will be very profitable, although he still doesn't know where the interests of this matter are, but it does not prevent him from judging with experience.

Just when Zhao Jun was about to make a decision to fully fund by the internal funds, the old man repented.

Immediately in the court:

"Your Majesty! Anyway, this is also a matter of the Great Song Dynasty, the minister just thought about it, it is not good to let all the internal funds contribute, so there will be half of the internal funds and half of the household department! ”

This is the method that Cui Wen came up with, half of each, and the risk is evenly shared.

In this way, if there is a profit in this matter, the household can also take a bite, and if there is no profit, then the user department will not bear all the risks.

Zhao Jun secretly scolded this old thing in his heart, but said on his lips: "There are many places where the dynasty needs to use silver now, and the finances have just turned around, it is indeed like what Cui Laoshangshu said, there is no need to waste silver taels in unnecessary places."

This matter is still fully funded by the internal treasury, and Cui Shangshu, the silver of the treasury, is still left in a more important place. ”

When Cui Wen saw Zhao Jun say this, he was suddenly more sure that he could make money in this matter.

Immediately:

"What did Your Majesty say about this, garrison the subject country, this is a major event to show the majesty of my Great Song Dynasty to the subject country, and this is also a major event related to the face of my Great Song Dynasty!

How can my household department not contribute to this matter? ”

Zhao Jun had a smile on his face, but he was in MMP in his heart.

How is this old thing getting more and more savvy?

Reluctantly smiled and said, "But didn't Cui Shangshu say that just now?" ”

Cui Wen said solemnly: "Just now, the pattern of Weichen was small, and he didn't understand His Majesty's good intentions, but now Weichen suddenly realized that this matter still needs the household department to take its own responsibility!" ”

Okay! You can say such brazen words for the sake of silver, I underestimate you!

Zhao Jun looked at this old Shangshu dumbfounded, and finally could only reluctantly agree.

Looking at the helpless expression on Zhao Jun's face, Cui Wen's face showed a big smile.
