Chapter Five Hundred and Twenty Seven Good Neighbors (Part 2)
Faced with this shameless spirit of reaching an invincible height, even the iron cock Cao Yi had no choice but to return. However, on the way, he saw the Koreans continuing to take in the escaped people of Liaodong and powerful people.
After hearing this, Song Jiu sighed: "I go to the surrounding areas, either cold, hot, or dry areas or mountainous areas that are difficult to survive. Therefore, since ancient times, the mainstream ideas in China have opposed opening the border."
Cao Yong nodded.
In fact, it was the so-called Goryeo, and the Song Dynasty was not very interested. If the Liao Kingdom had not been too powerful and had seized the Song Dynasty's portal, Yan Yun, the Song Dynasty would not have used troops to the Liao Kingdom on such a large scale.
Including Dali, Hehuang, and Hexi Corridor, Song Jiu proposed it, but many ministers did not agree with the future use of troops against them.
"This idea is actually wrong, including Liaodong. You can wait and see if it is used in a few years. In order to see if Liaodong is still a place of coldness?"
"Just like Lingnan?"
"That's probably not. Lingnan can ripen three times a year due to weather reasons, but Liaodong can only ripen one year. However, the weather in Lingnan is hot, and the weather is cold. Cotton is popular. There are also many carbonite deposits in Liaodong. At worst, wear more clothes in winter and don't go out. But what should I do if I do? I can't peel and remove heat. Moreover, because of the heat, mosquitoes and flies are dense, and poisons are everywhere. Therefore, each has its own advantages and disadvantages. However, the weather in the south is very bad, but it is better because crops are easy to harvest. Although the north is cold, it is better because the land is fertile. Even in the western desert areas, if everyone consciously protects the water, soil, and farming, it is not a place where people cannot settle down."
"The Goryeo people dared to do this. There are several reasons. The first is that our dynasty is not the Liao Kingdom. It is precisely because the mainstream ideas oppose opening the border that they have poor attack power. The Goryeo people are not afraid. The second is that the tenacity and shamelessness of this nation are despised by everyone."
Cao Yong laughed.
"The third one still has some resistance forces in the northeast, but it has been almost a year since the war, and almost 80% of the country's banished soldiers, as well as countless village soldiers, soldiers and soldiers gradually became tired of war, and the national finances have reached the extreme range of endurance. I believe Goryeo also knows this information clearly. Although Goryeo has a small country, even the capital city is not as big as ours. However, most cities are built beside the mountains, which is easy to defend but difficult to attack. Therefore, the Liao Kingdom used hundreds of thousands of troops to break through Kaijing. In the end, facing the resistance of the Goryeo people and the restraint of our dynasty, they had to retreat and even split the soil for them."
“This is the most important reason.”
"If you use it, you are wrong. The most important reason is the mistake of my border policy. Because of the differences in civilization and race, it is difficult to defeat them, and it is even more difficult to conquer them and govern them. But I also made a serious mistake in my heart, that is, the way to defeat. Just like Jiaozhi, I was dismissed from office because of this. In fact, I didn't blame Emperor Taizu for dismissal, but I did not agree with Emperor Taizu's idea."
"Since the military of the Han Dynasty and the country was in trouble, everyone was talking about morality and internal morality was for governance. However, can it make sense to explain morality to the outside world? For example, later, morality to the Xiongnu was preached. The Western Jin Dynasty was destroyed. For example, the Tang army was defeated, and hundreds of thousands of people in Bashu were captured. If they preached morality to Dangxiang, they almost endangered the entire northwest. For example, they began to preach morality to Jiaozhi again, although they were honest, they cooperated with the Southern Shengman and bought us as slaves to the people. If they continued like this, I believe that Jiaozhi would endanger the southern border."
Song Jiu suddenly thought of his previous life that China was moral, but he cultivated many good neighbors and was surrounded by enemies.
The United States is not good, and it has made many small countries not like countries, and their families not like families, but they have many friends.
"Actually, this idea is wrong. Emperor Wu of Han did that. He made a peace that had lasted for hundreds of years in the north. His mistake was to use excessive troops, which led to the dethrone of military force. Emperor Taizong of Tang was the same. He used too much troops in Goguryeo. However, what about the moderate use of troops? He did not seek governance, but only for destruction. Just like what I did in Lingnan, he plundered wealth, which guaranteed the military expenditure of that military force, and shocked many barbarians in the south. Moved the people and quickly entered the development stage of Lingnan. As for what Jiaozhi looked like after the plunder, what did it have to do with our dynasty? Even if there are many poor people in the country now, their own people have not been cured, and they can still control whether the external people are dead or alive? Let's see how Jiaozhi has been fighting for decades of peace in the south. If it weren't for Hou Renbao's use of troops lightly, resulting in the defeat of Baitengjiang, Jiaozhi would be more honest."
"This is the difference between inside and outside."
Song Jiu thought about it and felt that talking to Cao Yong was not very meaningful, so he could only remind him, and then returned to Beijing to report to Zhao Heng with a clear idea.
So he wrote a memorial and handed it to the capital.
In fact, this was learned from the American imperialist idea of using troops in moderation and not forgetting military skills.
Don’t talk about morality. Even if you don’t have morality and no reason to send troops, you can find excuses, and you can create excuses without excuses.
A kind of moderately aggressive idea that promotes shallow attack tactics.
But Song Jiu immediately had a headache.
There are still a lot of things in Liaodong, and the internal situation has not been completely pacified. Moreover, how to manage it after pacification is also a headache. It is easy to cure it, but it is difficult to cure it. Also, everyone in Shangyang Prefecture is very happy. All races come to pay tribute, but not every tribe comes to pay tribute. Some tribes are hostile to the Song Dynasty. Although there are not many, most tribes have the idea of waiting and skepticism towards the Song Dynasty.
Goryeo has something to do again.
If they let it go, they will win over more filthy people, even the Changbai Mountain tribe (the tribes living in Changbai Mountain on both sides of the Baichi Lake), and even the Lumaoduo tribe (the tribes in the north of Changbai Mountain, from Dunhua to Yanji).
But if they want to be obedient and moral, they must use force. However, how can the Song Dynasty use troops now? There are troops stationed in Liaodong, and more than 100,000 will be soldiered here in the future, garrison, and shocked the tribes. However, when launching a large-scale battle to fight against Goryeo, this amount of troops is still not enough. If it is not hurt, it is better not to fight.
The most important thing is in the Song Jiu plan. Goryeo is very important. Once the Huntong River is dredged, the ship can only sail to the Huntong River, or even the Yazi River. Goryeo is an important transit station.
This multiple-choice question is more difficult to choose than whether to suppress Wang Qinruo.
When the first snow in Jingde came, Song Jiu finally received a letter from Zhao Heng. He must not have trouble with Goryeo, even the so-called Gambling Mountain. As long as he can reconcile with Goryeo, he can give in.
However, according to the rumor of eunuch, Cao used to leave Goryeo, and Goryeo also sent an envoy to Kaifeng to meet, expressing his sincerity, and then praised the Song Dynasty's unification of the north and flattered Zhao Heng. Then he made a request and spoke very tactfully.
Moreover, the national finance continued to be in crisis. This was why this edict was created.
From the perspective of the Song Dynasty, we can let go even if we don’t want to let go. The overall policy of the Song Dynasty was to protect the outside and not be so eager to expand the territory.
The mountains on both sides of Changbai Mountain on the Yalu River are vast and the court cannot really manage them, even if Song Jiu cannot do it in the northeast. It is better to manage the upper reaches of the Luan River on the west side of the Liuhe River than to manage the Changbai Mountains.
Song Jiu did not argue about this, not to mention whether the Goryeo people would be more aggressive. They would also slowly invade the land of Liaodong. Even if they opened the memories of their previous lives, they did not want to leave this stain in history.
However, it is not possible to use military force against the Koreans for the time being.
Song Jiu did not express his opinion, and continued to watch the people of the Goryeo move away from Liaodong. He continued to invade Changbai Mountain, so that Wang Shu could not bear to see it anymore...
...
If the two time and space patterns of the Song Dynasty were moved away, it would not be an exaggeration to hold Song Jiu onto the Holy Platform.
But in this time and space, no one underestimated Song Jiu's contributions. Including Zhao Heng added a long list of various officials, ranks, titles and fiefs to Song Jiu. In fact, it is the recognition of Song Jiu's contributions.
However, Song Jiu also has many shortcomings.
For example, he was not very motivated, which led to lack of courage to reform the various disadvantages of the Song Dynasty. At least the reform of government affairs was not as courageous as that of Zhao Heng during the Xianping rule.
This point is similar to Yao Chong of the Tang Dynasty, or Lu Yijian in history, and it is also a piece of reform or fine-tuning.
Therefore, there are still many disadvantages in the Song Dynasty today.
The second is Song Jiu's luxurious life.
Logically speaking, his luxury is not an exaggeration. Now Song Jiu is truly a rich and noble, but everyone thinks that this is what he deserves.
But this wealthy first-class found two very bad things. One is that officials openly traded. It can only be said that under the leadership of Song Jiu, although the literati and officials started to pay commercial taxes slowly, which brought more commercial tax revenue to the country. However, the literati and officials engaged in business was a very unfair phenomenon.
Secondly, life is relatively luxurious. Although Song Jiu is better than Lu Mengzheng's daily to eat chicken tongues, or Kou Zhun's entertainment life, she is also more particular about life, such as the "air-conditioned" houses in the capital, such as the dowry of every daughter getting married, and tens of thousands of dollars...
Therefore, famous officials such as Song Jiu and Kou Zhun were gradually introducing a misunderstanding to the scholars and officials of the Song Dynasty.
But compared with Kou Zhun, Song Jiu was also a little better. He enjoyed when he should, and could endure hardships when he should, and even enjoyed the people and the soldiers. Just like in the first year of Youzhou Road, he ran outside for nearly ten months and traveled to various areas of Youzhou Road. Moreover, this kind of running did not stop, and may be maintained until his term ended his resignation. During the run, it was not between cities, but about mountains, rivers, villages, and even came to the homes of the people to eat the common people's corn and rice, or slaughtered cattle and roasted sheep with the leaders of various races.
It was only in the first year that it was Luoxue that he barely suppressed the resistance from all over the country.
The next year, the ice and snow had not melted, and Song Jiu started running again.
There are many things to do, such as stabilizing various ministries, building cities, and having cities will lead to commerce, defensive bases, higher civilization will lead to better stability and culturalization of local people.
Drag rivers, build roads, develop commerce, and promote advanced planting methods...
And the new Green Great Wall, starting from Mantou Mountain and Yong'an Mountain, to Songshan, to Liuhe, and connected to Tanshan Ancient Great Wall.
It is not the same as the ancient Great Wall. Although it has been destroyed a lot, many of the city walls are still under the foundation. At least it can be repaired at various passes, with the financial resources of the Song Dynasty.
But it would be too expensive to rebuild a new Great Wall that lasts seven or eight hundred miles.
Therefore, the Green Great Wall is rebuilt.
On this long division line that is nearly 800 miles long, afforestation is planted and the foundation is also very good. Many forests were cut down due to the Han planting in the lower reaches of the Liaohe River, resulting in a slightly turbid water in the Liaohe River. However, the forests in the Shangjing area were not seriously damaged, including this line, because of the vast land and sparse population, there are dense forests in many areas.
All the Song Dynasty had to do was to allocate a sum of money to connect these mountains and forests, then plant some shrubs and vine-climbing plants covered with thorns, and then set up checkpoints at various passes. Since they were in contact with the desert, trade and communication, they could also play a defensive role.
Moreover, this dense jungle area that is dozens of miles wide and seven or eight miles long in the future can also protect the water and soil of Zhongping Prefecture in the future.
Even if Yinshan forests are formed, there may be no sandstorms in Youzhou in the future.
Of course, few people think that way, and the key is its defensive effect.
However, the scale was not very large at the beginning. Now the people in the Northeast need to be at peace and have to pay light taxes and levies, including corvee labor.
It will only be larger next year, and it may not be possible to end until Song Jiu left the Northeast for four or five years.
Autumn is coming gradually.
Song Jiu arrived in Shenyang first, and there were many prefecture cities in Yang, and Shenzhou became Shenyang again.
Dongyang Prefecture is still centered on Dongyang City, but under the intentional guidance of Song Jiu, the center gradually shifts to Shenyang because it is a transportation hub to Luyang, Changchun and Goryeo. On the waterway, Dongyang Prefecture has Dongliang River and Shenzhou has Xiliang River, and everyone is with each other.
So the second academy on Youzhou Road appeared. The first academy was renovated in Youzhou and was built on the basis of the Imperial College in Nanjing, Liao Dynasty. Zhao Heng's car was expanded in Youzhou, and Zhao Heng wrote inscriptions himself, Shenyang was the second academy.
In the future, Shangyang Prefecture, Luyang Prefecture, Zhongping Prefecture, Changchun Prefecture will build four academies to teach children of all races to read and read. Including the various restricted tribes, they can also send their children to study, or even teach those who are classical and ritualistic and Confucianism. They can also recommend outstanding children to come to the capital to participate in the imperial examination.
Song Jiu hosted the opening ceremony and went to the outskirts of Shenzhou again. Where was the good thing about to mature?
