Zhao Xi has stationed in Xijin Mansion, and all the officials and officials from the entire Song Dynasty who have conquered Yanyun have stationed themselves in Xijin Mansion.
It also includes the entire Chinese army of the Song Dynasty.
The people were submissive and submissive. Even if a dynasty called Daliao had been governing them for hundreds of years, they could not be controlled by the same race as the Central Plains dynasty.
At this time, the city was destroyed, and they only thought about survival and could not think too much.
As for the feared disruption, none of it happened.
Some people fled during the war in Hebei Province and went to Daoxijin Prefecture in Nanjing, Daliao... As a result, the most powerful dynasty in this land, with millions of soldiers, was defeated like this.
As for those who originally lived in Xijin Mansion and were officials in the Liao court... they all ran away.
The remaining plain-headed people could only look at it like this and sigh with emotion: From now on, Nanjing Road will change to the King's Flag.
At this time, they accepted the fact of being ruled by the Song Dynasty.
Fortunately, the troops of the Song Dynasty seemed to be more disciplined than the cavalry of the Liao Dynasty, and they almost made no mistakes in the autumn.
On the first day when the Song Dynasty troops stationed in Xijin Mansion, no shops dared to open their doors.
After the city is broken, seal the sword after three days...~This is the military order after the city is broken that people in Liao heard the most.
The Xijin Mansion was breached, and the entire people of the Xijin Mansion were hiding in their cellars and shivering...~
After three days, people gradually opened the door and went out.
After greeting each other's neighbors, they discovered that no one had been killed in the past three days.
Moreover, the entire streets of Xijin Mansion are clean, even cleaner than before the war.
The army of the Song Dynasty is really better than the cavalry of the Northern Liao Dynasty...
"Analysis on the People's Book of Jinfu: The Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun originally belonged to the Central Plains Dynasty. They were a farming nation different from nomadic peoples. They were a Han nation that respected the teachings of Confucius and Mencius."
"The Sixteenth State of Yanyun has been away from the Central Plains Dynasty for more than a hundred years. Today, it is considered that it has returned. It has returned to the orthodox Central Plains Dynasty, become a subject of the Central Plains Dynasty again, and a descendant of the ancestors' enlightenment."
"Thousands of people of Yanyun have suffered after being separated from their ancestors for more than a hundred years! From now on, you will belong to the Song Dynasty, you will be the people of the Song Dynasty, and the court of the Song Dynasty will soothe your hearts that have been injured for a hundred years...~"
"From now on, Xijin Mansion will belong to the state capital of the Song Dynasty. Before the court appoints officials, Xijin Mansion will temporarily serve as the base camp for the Song and Qing Dynasties to suppress the remnants of the Northern Liao Dynasty."
"Therefore, Xijin Prefecture will temporarily implement military control, but it will not affect the lives of the people. All residents of Xijin Prefecture are only required to register at the Yamen as soon as possible, within seven days."
"In view of the fact that the Northern Liao court was aggressive in military affairs, the king was ignorant, the court was in chaos, and there were rebellions by sycophants, which led to the Northern Liao court plundering the people's wealth and anointing, causing the people of Yanyun to live in dire straits. Therefore, the officials of the Song Dynasty issued an order that three years from the date of the transfer of the Jin Prefecture to the Song Dynasty,
The imperial court will reduce or reduce the two taxes of the Xijin Prefecture, and the commercial taxes of the Xijin Prefecture will also be implemented in accordance with the commercial laws of the Song Dynasty!"
…
The former head of the village in Jijin Mansion was still the head of the village, beating gongs and drums and calling in the streets... On the third day when the people thought they were safe.
Not only that, in the notice to the people, the court almost went down to every detail.
The opening of markets, trade, food security, school teaching, city gate control, etc. were all clearly informed to the people.
It's quite fresh, really quite fresh, not just the method, but also the various measures that make people feel reassured.
There was no murder, no looting of property, the army was the army, the people were the people, we got along well with each other and did not interfere with each other...
Maybe, following Da Song is not such a bad thing...
The war is still going on, but Xijin Mansion seems to be calm.
"This is the rear where the imperial court went north to wipe out the remnants of the Northern Liao Dynasty, and it is the supply point for the entire frontline team. The stability of Jinfu is related to the logistics support of the entire frontline."
"Taxation? Considering the two years of war in Northern Liao, don't expect to receive any money or food from the Jin Mansion. For the court, clearing out the remnants of Northern Liao as soon as possible is a top priority. The court is not short of money and food, and stability is particularly important!"
"The generals must inform every soldier of the imperial policy, and all ministers must exercise supervision responsibilities. Here, there is no precedent after the city is captured. From now on, this is the city of the Song Dynasty, and it applies to the city of the Song Dynasty.
All the laws of Song Dynasty!"
"I don't want to see military-civilian disputes in Xijin Prefecture, let alone any differential treatment by Xijin Prefecture."
"Not only the Xijin Prefecture, but the entire newly recovered cities in the Sixteenth Prefecture of Yanyun will all follow the principles of peace and tranquility of the Xijin Prefecture...~ It has been more than a hundred years, like a wandering child abandoned by his mother, who finally returned home.
The court should make them feel warm..."
What he said was nice, and the letter to the people was also nice.
Little did they know that before the war, the wealth of the entire Northern Liao Dynasty had been almost wiped out by means of commerce. How could the Xijin Mansion be left alone?
Think about it, using the wealth of the Xijin Prefecture collected in the early days to subsidize the people of the Xijin Prefecture after the war... It is really a matter of taking it from them and using it for them.
On the fifth day after the Central Army of the Song Dynasty entered Xijin Mansion, an endless stream of carriages entered Xijin Mansion from the south. On that day, the original price of one hundred cents per liter of grain instantly dropped to thirty cents...~
The shipping point of these grains did not come from the territory of the Song Dynasty, but from Zhigukou and the shipping caravan of the fourth prince.
When the imperial court formulated the battle strategy, the four princes began to transport food... This is not correct. It should be that from the beginning of the civil war in Northern Liao, with the permission of the imperial court, the fourth prince's team could go south, and they began to go to Beiliao.
Selling food on the side.
Don't think that food is not profitable. The capacity of sea ships, the low price of Nanyang food, the risk-free shipping line, and the food shortage in Northern Liao and even the entire Liaodong... ~ Based on the above, the fourth prince made a profit in food.
A bowl full of food.
Even after the imperial court regained Yanyun and demanded that the price of grain be equal to that within the country, the business of selling grain by sea was still promising.
Therefore, the fourth prince had already stocked up a large amount of food, and the Zhigu Port established by his marines... was a place with a strong port foundation.
After the imperial army recaptured the Sixteenth Prefecture of Yanyun, the four princes also began to transport food from Zhigukou to all the cities where the imperial court was stationed...
In times of war, food is the best tool to win people's hearts and the best weapon of peace, even more effective than muskets.
Seven days after the imperial army stationed in Xijin Mansion, it can be said that the entire Xijin Mansion has completely returned home... For those who stutter, or to have a full stomach, people's choice is not unexpected.
Just by looking at the people who are constantly trying to send away those who were originally soldiers of the Northern Liao Dynasty but have now changed into civilian clothes and are preparing to get away with it, we can see what the hearts of the people in the entire Xijin Prefecture are now.
Zhao Xi was not surprised by this. The ministers and ministers might be a little surprised, but they didn't take it seriously.
To the court, these things were insignificant.
"Officials, can Bianliang select officials? With the official allocation of the twelve states, plus the counties, the court needs too many officials..."
Wang Anshi is not in a hurry. The current situation can be said to be that he has recovered Yanyun. The twelve states of Yanyun have been completely occupied by the Song Dynasty, and they have taken over smoothly, and even regained the hearts of the people.
The next step is naturally the dispatch of officials.
Of course, it cannot be ruled out that the cabinet has the intention to resettle its disciples. I am worried.
"We can let Bianliang make plans first. As for when he will take office... I can't find Yelu Hongji's 100,000 main force in Northern Liao. I'm still worried about Yanyun."
Before the war began, Bei Liao boasted an army of 800,000.
As of now, the finishing touches are being made. Counting all those captured and annihilated, there are only more than 200,000 people.
Although Beiliao's original claim was a bit exaggerated, it should have been four to five million.
Now, the imperial army has launched a campaign to suppress the entire south of Yanshan, but with little effect. There are almost no organized troops from the Northern Liao Dynasty.
This made Zhao Xi very uneasy.
Have you all crossed Yanshan Mountain?
It is said that Yelu Hongji escaped early and might have crossed Yanshan, but what about those behind him? They all crossed Yanshan too?
There is still no news that the Northern Liao court ordered the troops to disperse.
The cavalry of the Song Dynasty attacked in time, almost the same time as the Northern Liao army collapsed, but no trace of the Northern Liao army was found.
After all, the terrain is still unfamiliar!
Neither the chasing team nor the interceptors engaged in large-scale battles... In other words, when Beiliao was defeated and fled, they adopted the tactics of breaking up into parts...~
"Although the officials and the army are in the process of suppression, they are still mainly concentrated around the prefectures and counties. The Northern Liao Dynasty is more familiar with the terrain than the soldiers of our Dynasty."
"The cavalry team is mainly composed of Dangxiang and Tibetan people. They don't know the map, so it is difficult to achieve an absolute and complete wipeout."
"If Beiliao really adopts the method of breaking up the whole into parts as the officials say, I am afraid that it will be difficult to eradicate it in the short term. And the governance of prefectures, counties and counties is already urgent."
"After the imperial court regained Yanyun, it should bring Yanyun under the imperial management as soon as possible. What's more, this war is now over, and it's time for the official expedition to return to the court."
"The imperial court should select officials as soon as possible, leave the suppression of bandits to the local authorities, and deploy the garrison in a reasonable manner. This is what the imperial court should do now."
As soon as the war ended, Wang Anshi began to worry about the affairs of the court.
Speaking of which, the officials and cabinet members have been away from Bianliang for half a year.
The war has ended to a certain extent, and it is time for the officials to return to the court to decide how to reward merit.
Wang Anshi had nothing to say. He was really worried that the reward would not be in place, which would affect the outcome of the entire war.
"Prime Minister, the end of the war does not mean the occupation of the city. The finishing work of the war is more important in the entire war than the war itself."
"I understand the meaning of Prime Minister Wang. The cabinet accompanying the army should first check the military merits and communicate with Bianliang at any time. The cabinet will formulate a reward plan as soon as possible to make all generals feel at ease..."
"For me, this war is not over, or it is just the beginning. The subsequent war is even more important than the war itself."
Some cases cannot be explained clearly. Later generations have countless examples of so-called occupation and the end of war. This is why Zhao Xi has always emphasized that the main goal of war is to eliminate viable forces.
Recovering Yanyun is not to put Yanyun into long-term turmoil. Since it is recovered, it is to make Yanyun as peaceful as in the Song Dynasty.
Zhao Xi didn't want to do half-hearted things, and he had no shame in accepting a half-hearted victory.
The peace of Yanyun will be the end of the war to regain Yanyun.
Today, less than 30% of the leaders of various tribes in Northern Liao are actually hunted and killed.
Not to mention the royal family and descendants, there are large tribal forces with more than 50,000 soldiers, and it is still unclear whether they have been annihilated.
The so-called strategic goals have not been achieved at all!
"Order the entire army, within a hundred miles around the city, to surrender to the chariot soldiers and the musketeers to clear it out!"
"The area between a hundred and three hundred miles around each city will be cleared by the cavalry. Areas beyond three hundred miles will be handed over to auxiliary cavalry and recruited cavalry for clearing."
"At the same time, inform the entire army that the imperial court will immediately formulate a reward plan. When rewarding military merit, there will be no distinction between military branches or status, and military merit will be used as a reference."
"For the pasture rewards for auxiliary and recruitment of cavalry, the military exploits within the Yanyun range are equivalent to the subsequent military exploits in the grasslands, and they will also be rewarded with pastures."
"In addition, I would like to inform the world that anyone who reports the traces of the armies of all forces in the Northern Liao Dynasty to the common people within the Yanyun area will be rewarded by the imperial court for their military exploits, with priority given to food and coins!"
The reason why all the forces in the Northern Liao Dynasty were able to escape the suppression of the Song Dynasty army was simply because they relied on the vast territory of Yanyun and their familiarity with the terrain.
very good!
Then the imperial court took advantage of the people who were more familiar with the terrain than they were...
Considering the original financial situation of the Northern Liao Dynasty, the reward from the Song Dynasty court would be tempting.
In the words of later generations, Zhao Xi wanted to put the defeated troops and deserters of Northern Liao into the vast people's war.
Wang Anshi wanted to say something else, but it was obvious that other cabinet elders seemed to agree with the official's opinion. Therefore, he could only take a look first. After all, he was not familiar with war.
It didn't take long for Wang Anshi to understand that what the officials said was justified by the reports sent out by various groups to suppress the enemy.
As the scope of suppression gradually expanded, the suppression teams naturally became less concentrated.
On the tenth day after the Chinese army stationed in Xijin Mansion, they received the first very uncomfortable report: a 500-man cavalry squad had no news three days after setting off, but in the end they found 500 corpses.
The crossbows and short spears equipped by the Song Dynasty, as well as the individual equipment of the soldiers of the Song Dynasty, were all taken away.
"Officials, large-scale team sweeps have limited coverage, and small team sweeps can easily cause such casualties...~"
Even in the cavalry battle between the two sides, the Song Dynasty never had a whole team of 500 cavalry annihilated...~
The key is that such annihilation led to the loss and leakage of the Song Dynasty's armaments, which was very serious.
"Let's cooperate in the clearing! It seems that I only considered the mobility of chariot soldiers and cavalry, which is a bit one-sided."
"The cavalry detachments responsible for the purge are ordered to be accompanied by chariots when each detachment goes out, no less than one chariot for each hundred-man detachment!"
I originally thought that with the mobility advantage of the cavalry, I could clear the largest area in a short time...~I was negligent.
Zhao Xi was also anxious.
Judging from the current situation, Yelu Hongji should have escaped from Yanshan.
For Zhao Xi, if he cannot annihilate the Northern Liao king, this battle really cannot be considered over.
I am still influenced by Wang Anshi, and I really feel that I have been away from the court for a long time.
