Surprised! Not only the Northern Liao people were surprised, but also the ministers of the Song Dynasty were surprised. Even Wang Shunchen, who bowed his head, forgot what occasion he was in and looked up at his Majesty!
The Northern Liao Dynasty was surprised because they had always thought that the emperors of the Song Dynasty since Taizu Taizong no longer had horse emperors. They were all kings who were raised in deep palaces. They still had Wen Tao, but they could not talk about military strategy.
This was Yelu Hongji's seemingly casual but intentional archery act to regain some face... He thought the Emperor of Song was weak. As a result, the Emperor of Song was no worse than that archer.
Zhao Xi didn't mean to show off, even if in fact he was already arrogant.
"Zirong, the next step is to focus on research on ammunition improvement and mass production. This gun will greatly increase the military's combat effectiveness."
After saying that, Zhao Xi casually threw the gun to Wang Shunchen, turned around and walked towards the high platform without even looking at Beiliao... The expressions on their faces were probably very exciting.
Before the simmering ridicule and laughter could be fully vented, they were suppressed back by this burst of ejaculation...
From the beginning of the contact between the two kings, Yelu Hongji wanted to save some face in the competition, so he proposed that the two sides form an organized confrontation.
After being righteously rejected by Zhao Xi, he proposed three more fights.
It seems that there is no need to mention it at this time.
It is said that there was one fight, but it can be seen as two fights. Besides, who can compete after the king?
It was a quiet moment. Yelu Hongji was in no mood to say anything more, and Zhao Xi was too lazy to talk nonsense. So, Fu Bi and Yelu Yixin began to negotiate.
No more ink marks, each family has its own busy affairs.
Zhao Xi looked at Yelu Hongji's dejected face, but he didn't add insult to injury, and there was no need to be so quick-tongued. This old boy might have regretted showing off his shooting skills, which just made the whole Bei Liao lose all fighting spirit.
As for the Song Dynasty, although they were not in high spirits, from the soldiers to the ministers and the kings, the whole camp was filled with joy.
The signing ceremony was a bit dull. On both sides of the low table were the kings of Song and Liao. The servants were busy exchanging the covenants, while Yelu Hongji signed the contract mechanically without taking his eyes off Zhao Xi.
Zhao Xi looked at him indifferently... Are you going to bite me?
Beiliao was very quick. The moment the signing was completed, they evacuated cleanly, leaving behind a lot of horse manure...
Since Han Qi agreed not to restrict the people's choice between going to Liao and Yunying and the four states, after releasing the prisoners, a large number of people left the four states of Yunzhou and followed the captive soldiers retreating from Northern Liao, all the way east.
"Don't they know which dynasty they should be loyal to?"
Now on the city wall of Yunzhou, Fu Bi looked at the people leaving in the distance, and Fu Bi didn't understand.
Han Qi couldn't help but feel embarrassed. He originally thought it was a slap in the face to Bei Liao, but now he felt hot.
Shouldn't we be looking forward to Master Wang's arrival in Beiding?
"In a hundred years, almost three generations, there has been no recognition of the Central Plains dynasty. What's more, the hundred years of border peace have actually created an environment for people to live and work in peace and contentment."
"The previous dynasty was a mixed-ethnic dynasty, and the area around Yunying Four Prefectures was mostly under the jurisdiction of foreign Jiedu envoys. Coupled with the chaos of the Five Dynasties, the city was replaced by the king's flag. Whoever can make the people live in peace will be recognized by their family.
dynasty."
"Forget it! With such a great country, there is no need to leave behind people who have no sense of belonging!"
Zhao Xi seemed to be explaining, but also feeling emotional.
These words from the official made Han Qi feel more at ease. At least he was not punished for his own negligence, which caused widespread emptiness in the four states of Yunying.
However, how to govern these empty Yunying four states will be the next problem that will test the court...~
"Your Majesty, many of the people who moved east are military relatives, or are relatives of the Linya clan of the Han people. They have been harassing Daizhou on the border for a long time, and have almost become feuds with the people of Daizhou. The reason why they left is probably more because they are worried about the imperial dynasty.
There will be differences when governing the four states..."
This is a fact. Although the Song army has not had any major wars since the Tanyuan Alliance, the Northern Liao Dynasty has never stopped harassing the border.
The Liao army threshing straw is just like the season. It happens every autumn and there is never a shortage of casualties. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a feud.
It was the same this time after taking over the Yunying Four Prefectures. During this period of time, the new Imperial Army in Daizhou, Dingxiang, and Xin County were always tormenting these aborigines intentionally or unintentionally.
No matter whether they were civil servants or military generals, they all allowed them to do this with their eyes closed.
Sooner or later, those who came out to work will have to pay back. This word is very suitable at this time. Lin Yajun, a Han Chinese in Yunying Sizhou, repaid the sins they had committed in the past century and left behind the industry that has been managed by generations. Today, Yunying Sizhou
The Lin Yajun clan in the state used the method of leaving to make the Song Dynasty court repay the unfair treatment.
"Go back! It's time to discuss how to manage the four states of Yunying."
This is business, and the courtiers are waiting for the official's words.
The so-called management, in essence, is a matter of profit distribution. The fields and products in the four prefecture cities, the vast fields in the four prefectures, and the various resources explored in Gongfang City, etc., now belong to the big
After the Song dynasty, there was the possibility of sharing among everyone... Officials never ate alone.
After all, it was the original Xijing of the Northern Liao Dynasty. The palace built by the Northern Liao Dynasty in Yunzhou was good, not even worse than some of the imperial palaces in Bianliang.
In the same way, there are seats, steps, and halls and spaces for civil and military personnel.
Zhao Xi sat on his Majesty's throne, looking at the ministers and ministers under his Majesty's rank... It felt that it was not much different from that in Bianliang. The ministers and ministers were still as enthusiastic as ever when it came to interests.
This was just the beginning, and all the chatter started.
"The imperial court fought a great war, almost to the point of breaking out the muscles and bones. Once again, there was a financial crisis in which Yin and Mao were forced to eat grain. I believe that the imperial court could implement a squandering purchase method of coal and various mineral resources and quickly collect money and grain to make up for this.
The deficit of the first campaign..."
"Who told you that Chao Ting Yin was eating his grain? That's nonsense!"
Wang Anshi couldn't see people who were so shameless for profit, and he also knew that one person could not stop the desire of such mediocre ministers to seek wealth, but he couldn't help but feel uncomfortable in his heart.
"The Northern Liao Dynasty was not good at farming, and the fertile fields turned into wilderness. Since the four states of Yunying have been taken over by the Song Dynasty, we cannot allow them to continue to be desolate."
"Transporting grain from the south to the north, relying on Annan for food, and the natural dangers of Yanmen, is never a long-term solution. It is a good strategy to open up wasteland and re-cultivate the four prefectures of Yunying to ensure that the four prefectures are self-sufficient."
"I believe that the wilderness can be broken down and claimed by the nobles of the country. This will not only ensure the self-sufficiency of the four states of Yunying, but also indirectly complete the relocation of Dingkou north to fill Yunying..."
Zhao Xi originally thought that with the reference of Dali Mining City and Guangnan Manganese Mine, as well as the rail system, Workshop City system, etc., the ministers and workers should be able to choose a relatively neutral rhetoric and suggestion in this discussion.
It’s really unbelievable that in the face of interests, you can really put your face on it.
Fortunately, no one at the level of my husband spoke up, and it was also because when he went north this time, he brought out all the idle ministers who knew how to cause trouble but were incompetent. Otherwise, the court in Bianliang might have been in chaos.
