Chapter 301 Republic (11)
"The princes were defeated, and the Khan of Timur did not blame them, but asked them to repair the city. In the evening of that day, the members of the True God Cult got up to rebel. The army in the city was suppressed. The next morning, the princes suddenly attacked the city gate. At that time, the troops in the city had been scattered in the city, and the troops guarding the gate were caught off guard and were defeated by them. These people led the army of the slave dynasty to attack the imperial city directly. The Khan had not had many personal troops, but they were caught off guard and lost the imperial city. The Khan had to withdraw from Baghdad City."
When Hao Kang talked about these, his expression was gloomy but not angry. The hatred was pressed into his heart, which made Yang Congrong feel that Hao Kang was more powerful. Thinking about it, he could understand what could Hao Kang do even if he was angry at this time. He brought all the troops in Damascus to attack Baghdad, but it was just a moth to the flames. At this time, Damascus had to consider whether they would be attacked by the slave dynasty. Looking back at that time, Hao Kang was detained in Constantinople, and when he saw Yang Congrong, he said something young and energetic to Yang Congrong. This young man is really growing a lot now.
"Hisser Hao Kang, I wonder what your plans are in the future?" Yang Cong-chan asked calmly.
"I want to officially join the Four-Party Alliance to form the Eastern Mediterranean Alliance."
"The Yuan Dynasty and the Western Roman Empire are vassal states of Mongolia. Will you feel embarrassed if you join like this?" Although it was about embarrassing topics, Yang Congrong not only did not embarrass her, but looked very comfortable.
Hao Kang was not embarrassed in his expression. He said naturally: "Everyone actually knows what's going on in the so-called vassal state. I don't want to mention this topic, and I hope that if I can join, I don't mention it."
"If Mongolia joins, the charter of the alliance will definitely need to be adjusted." As the person who drafted the alliance treaty document, Yang Congrong did not want to pass it ambiguously. The four-party alliance has a position. The treaty stipulates that if Mongolia and the Song Dynasty fight, the Yuan and the Western Roman Empire will not stand on the side of Mongolia. Now that Mongolia wants to join, the basic treaty of the four-party alliance must of course be re-signed. Otherwise, there will be a funny situation of "I oppose myself".
Hao Kang expressed his attitude straightforwardly, "Minister Yang, the Mongolia I commanded will not be enemies of the Song Dynasty, and the new alliance will also be based on cooperation."
"Whether it is for an enemy is not a covenant. The reason for our unity must be external enemies. When the enemy disappears, the old covenant will definitely change." Yang Congrong also expressed his attitude frankly, "There is no need for the enemy to disappear. If you participate in the personnel changes at home, the country's policies will still undergo huge changes. Our Song Dynasty is very tolerant of this because we know this very well." Yang Congrong said beautifully and simply because he looked at the problem in his heart.
Under the order of the Zhao Guanjia, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs specially organized manpower to cooperate with the Archives Bureau of the Song Dynasty and the History Department of the University. It took nearly ten years to sort out the huge documents of "The History of the Song Dynasty Negotiation". In addition to sorting out, we must also analyze and summarize. Compared with various previous histories, the Zhao Guanjia completely solved all the barbarian problems in the territory controlled by the Song Dynasty. The barbarians either returned to heaven happily or accepted the leadership of the Song Dynasty with conscientious hearts. Moreover, those surrendered mountain and cave people all regarded themselves as Song people and lived a happy life without starvation through labor.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs cannot be regarded as a warlike department in the Song Dynasty court, but the Zhao official family liked Han Feizi, so the Ministry of Foreign Affairs could not be behind. The Five Worms said that when Shun was Shun, Miao was not convinced, and Yu was about to attack him. Shun said, "No. The superior virtue is not strong and he practices martial arts, which is not Tao." So he practiced the teaching for three years, and took the Gan Wu, and Miao was convinced. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs' understanding of this passage in various ministries is undoubtedly the most profound.
Hao Kang thought about it, but he clearly felt that he could not grasp the point of this. It cannot be blamed for Hao Kang, because behind every sentence Yang Congrong said there were many painful lessons that made the Song Dynasty personnel who compiled the History of the Negotiation of the Song Dynasty unable to help but shed tears. Many historical facts made Yang Congrong unable to bear to read it. This heavy history of hundreds of years was not something that a young man like Hao Kang could accumulate on his own.
However, Hao Kang did not fail to talk about it because of this, so he simply went straight to the point, "Minister Yang, I don't know what I have to do to get the recognition of the Song Dynasty."
"Build a civilized country that we can believe in." Yang Cong-answer replied calmly. The Zhao family has always been very tolerant of civilized countries. For example, the Song Dynasty never considered taking the initiative to attack. Even after collecting and paying Siguo Island, they did not want to split Siguo Island from Japan and become the territory of the Song Dynasty.
Based on Yang Congyun's experience in the Eastern Mediterranean, not to mention the thousand-year-old countries like the Eastern Roman Empire, even the Western Roman Empire established by Boyan and the Yuan Kingdom established by Hao Ren, which pursues civilization, were helped by the Song Dynasty. Because the Zhao official family firmly believed that civilized countries must have their own value. If it was a barbaric country, even if it was a powerful country, it would be born in unjustice and died in shame.
"Minister Yang, I have asked the Zhao family of the Song Dynasty to help us establish a system. In fact, what I want to take is the way to build a civilized country. But at this time, Mongolia is in danger, like a thorn in a dry rut. Now I am really powerless to start from a grand point."
"This has nothing to do with grandeur. There is no big country in Eastern Rome or Western Rome. Now both countries are facing serious domestic problems, but our Song Dynasty still believes in the two countries and has cooperated with them a lot. If Mongolia makes the same request, I wonder if Your Excellency Hao Kang thinks it will be trustworthy?"
"What you said is not that Mongolia did not abide by the agreement." Hao Kang's expression was very ugly.
"It's not. Because we know very well what these two countries have to do, the purpose of their solution to the problem is very different from that of Mongolia."
Hao Kang felt that he could no longer help but be angry, but he suppressed his anger and said, "Mongolia did sign an agreement with the Song Dynasty in the past, and then betrayed the alliance to attack the Song Dynasty. But now Mongolia is different. We are truly willing to be friendly with the Song Dynasty."
"Say I'm bluntly speaking, what Mr. Hao Kang said means that there is no change in Mongolia at all. Let's talk about this today. Please think about what happened." Yang Congrong said, then stood up and said goodbye.
Hao Kang was so angry that his orifices were smoked by Yang Congqing's statement. Part of his anger was because he felt that he had been humiliated by himself. But more part of it was because Yang Congqing used his advantages to offer fierce conditions to Hao Kang. Didn't Yang Congqing just want Mongolia to surrender to the Song Dynasty? Hao Kang could respect the Song Dynasty very much and kneel down to his father-in-law and mother-in-law, but he couldn't accept that he had surrendered to the Song Dynasty from the beginning. Moreover, Yang Congqing thought so and said it directly, and he was talking a lot of words to blame Mongolia for being wrong. Such an adult, is it necessary to do this!
He was so angry that he didn't want to discuss with the ministers. Hao Kang went back to his residence. He saw his wife greeting him in the living room. Although Hao Kang was angry, he couldn't help but smile. As long as he saw classmate Mu Hao Kang, he felt happy. This was something that others could not bring to Hao Kang. He was happy in his heart, and a smile naturally appeared.
"What's wrong? It depends on you being unhappy." Student Mu asked.
Hao Kang felt warm, but his wife was still caring. He pulled his wife to sit on the sofa and began to tell Yang Congrong's words. Student Mu did not attend the meeting because he felt a little embarrassed. At this time, he heard Hao Kang's remarks, and he frowned slightly, and soon he couldn't help but interrupt Hao Kang's words, "Wait first. I think you think Minister Yang is threatening you?"
"Isn't it?" Hao Kang asked back.
"The Zhao Guanjia once said that prodigal sons and rangers are running around. The difference between them is that prodigal sons are homeless, and rangers are home to the world. Prodigal sons are a bit like you now, and they think that the world is great and has nowhere to live. Rangers are different. They already have a world they agree with, the principles they agree with, and the morals they adhere to. Even those who have never lived in their lives are willing to help. In fact, the reason for their actions is not to get something from that person, but that they are not taking action is equivalent to denying themselves. Back then, you hated the Song Dynasty so much, was it because the Song Dynasty did something unacceptable to you personally?"
Hao Kang was stunned. He did not think so. Looking back on his past carefully, he was feeling pain for Mongolia, not because he suffered some pain or unfair treatment. Just like he had no relationship with Tiemur Khan, but when he saw Tiemur Khan, who represented Mongolia, was attacked by a traitor, and endured the pain of life being worse than death, Hao Kang felt unacceptable.
But after thinking about it, Hao Kang didn't understand the more specific connection between this and him. Finally, Hao Kang asked: "Madam, what do you think Minister Yang wants to say."
Student Mu did not answer directly, but told Hao Kang about the Song Dynasty. In addition to strong force as support in the construction of these systems in the Song Dynasty, the upper class was quite unified under the leadership of Zhao Guanjia. Although many people opposed the state of land, more people firmly supported the state of land. When Director Mu and Hao Kang were in school, there was also a lot of education, which fundamentally explained the harm that private landlord exploitation of land private land would have on the Song Dynasty court and people in the centralized system.
After talking about the education he and Hao Kang experienced during his student days, Mu asked: "Do you think the Zhao Guan family is working hard to build a country and who will come first and who will come after the war?" I was afraid that Hao Kang would not understand, Mu asked Hao Kang in more blunt words, "Do you think the Zhao Guan family is building the Song Dynasty for war or to build a country in order to build a war."
"This..." Hao Kang thought for a while and replied reluctantly: "War is for building the country."
