Zhang Shuye doubted: "Since the Mongolian tribe is so powerful, even if it cannot destroy the Liao Kingdom, it should be able to destroy the Xixia Kingdom, right? As long as you destroy one country, you can get the iron cavalry to sweep across the world. How"
Chao Yong smiled and said: "The tribes in Mongolia are brave and good at fighting, but they are also unruly. They spend most of their time fighting each other. Several large tribes cannot send troops to attack Xixia and Liao for a long time, because the tribes behind them are like hungry wolves. Keep an eye on them. Once they go to war, it is very likely that other tribes will snatch their women and children and bring them into their own tribe. According to the rules of the grassland, the victorious tribe will keep the children and women who are not older than the wheel and merge them into their own. tribe, and those who exceed the chariot wheels will be killed except for a few who can become slaves.¡±
Hearing that there is such a ferocious nation, a civil servant couldn't help but said: "It's inhumane."
Chao Yong looked at the shocked people and continued: "The Mongolian tribes have not swept the world, just because there is no one among them who can unify the tribes. Think about it, once they are unified, hundreds of thousands of them will be Who can resist an army composed of people who have grown up in fighting?"
Chao Gai frowned and said: "After the Jin Kingdom destroyed the Liao Kingdom, couldn't they surrender?"
Chao Yong shook his head and said: "No, and the wealthy Central Plains is more attractive to the Jin Congress."
While everyone was horrified, Wu Song smiled and said, "In this case, don't we have endless battles to fight?"
Chao Yong smiled and said: "I'm afraid that's the case."
Chao Gai saw the two chatting and laughing, and was no longer worried. Although there were many ferocious ethnic groups in the north, there were also many heroes in Daliang. As the prince said, if everyone fights to the death, ten million Han people will be invincible.
After dealing with the military affairs, Chao Gai then dealt with the political affairs. It was just where there were bandits and looters, which laws needed to be revised, and where there were refugees.
Chao Yong was not very interested in these trivial matters. He just stood there thinking about sending troops. Suddenly he had an idea and said: "I suggest that tomorrow's newspaper will focus on publicizing our Daliang's resistance to the Liao Dynasty, and publish it nationwide." The state government recruits brave warriors, and at the same time calls on all the Han people in the world to withdraw their troops and guard the borders. After the Liao Kingdom is defeated, we, the Han people, will conquer the world again. "
When Chao Gai heard this, he shook his head and said: "Wang Qing and Tian Hu are both busy robbing the state capital, so I'm afraid they won't agree to us."
Chao Yong smiled and said: "Based on their temperaments, they most likely won't agree, so General Lin's troops will go to Xijing. However, it is a rightful thing to fight against foreign aggression. If they continue to attack our Daliang Xijing, they will lose their rightful righteousness. Heroes in the world I won¡¯t vote for them again, and I¡¯m afraid some of their heroes will be dissatisfied, and maybe some of them will vote for me.¡±
Chao Gai nodded and said: "That's not bad, but if there is a truce, our troops on the south and east roads will also have to stop."
Chao Yong solemnly said: "We have to stand on the side of righteousness. Naturally, we cannot follow the facts, lest Wang Qing, Tian Hu and others say that I am taking the opportunity to seize the territory behind Daliang's back. We must make an all-out effort to resist the Liao Dynasty and gather our troops. . But the two armies did not really rush to Hebei, but turned around to sweep away the bandits and defeated troops in the prefecture that had been captured, so as to prevent them from plundering the people. I believe that the Liao Kingdom will not fight with us for a long time until we are defeated. Liao soldiers, there should be no rogue bandits in Daliang. Then we can use our great righteousness to wipe out Wang Qing and Tian Hu. I can lead troops directly from Hebei to Hedong and attack Tian Hu's rear. "
Chao Gai is actually a little worried about Chao Yong's fight against the Liao Dynasty. Now that he has gathered his troops, if the situation in Hebei goes bad, he can just send them to support Hebei.
Thinking of this, Chao Gai nodded and said: "Okay, let's do as the prince said. The Hanlin Academy will cooperate with the Imperial Academy to draft the text."
The officials of Hanlin Academy and Jinzhuo came out to receive the order.
Chao Yong turned around and said to the two of them: "The article needs to be written in a majestic way. It must not only denounce the Song Dynasty's humiliation and seek peace, break the backbone of the Han people, so that we Han people cannot stand upright and look down on the world. It must also write about our determination to fight to the death and fight against foreign aggression. , calling on heroes from all over the world to join the army to defend the country and reshape the backbone of the Han people."
"The official has learned a lesson."
Chao Yong looked at the two of them and said: "A good article is worthy of thousands of troops, but you must continue to publish articles to inspire the bloody spirit of our Han people. If the recruitment of brave warriors goes smoothly, I will give you a second-class military merit. The Di newspaper can be printed. Some, expand the impact.¡±
The two of them were overjoyed when they heard what Chao Yong said. Daliang military merit is not so easy to obtain. Each level of military merit will have corresponding rewards. Moreover, if the prince is close to the warriors and can obtain military honors, he will no longer have to worry about losing his life if he says the wrong thing and will be infamy for thousands of years.
The soldiers and civilians of Daliang all know that the prince is very easy-going and polite to his soldiers, but he is not so polite to the scholars. Now the people of Daliang are most afraid of Chao Yong. Not afraid of beingThe prince wanted to kill him, but he was afraid that he would be inscribed on a monument and be remembered for thousands of years.
After Li Gang, Cai Jing and others were engraved together, they are now scolded by the people every day.
Although the officials knew why Li Gang was engraved on the stele, no one dared to say anything. Even Li Gang's close friends did not dare to say anything. They were afraid that the prince would regard Li Gang as an accomplice and add it to the stele. The prince originally ordered the masons to leave three empty spaces on the stone tablet, saying that they would be reserved for the Seven Thieves' companions.
These three vacancies have become what literati fear most.
"Those who don't know about it, even though they have heard about Li Gang's deeds, still doubt Li Gang when they see him engraved with Cai Jing, Zhu Meng, Wang Fu and others.
No one is allowed to leave records of Li Gang's deeds, and any offender will be executed. It won't be long before the truth will be buried in the long river of history, and Li Gang will only be infamy for thousands of years.
Before the spit on Li Gang's stele was dry, Huang Qianshan appeared again. It can be imagined that when Huang Qianshan was engraved on the stele for treason, the people would only spit on him even more. There is no room for literati not to be afraid of Chao Yong.
"Prince, don't worry, we will do our best to handle this matter."
Chao Yong retreated to his position, and Chao Gai asked the troubled person to come out again.
After a while, the court returned to normal, with some people playing and others whispering in the background.
Chao Yong also felt the contrast this time, so he came out again.
Sure enough, as soon as Chao Yong went to fight, the court became silent again.
"My dear sir, please list another one on the stone tablet so that you won't be punished for what you say."
"ah?"
An official asked in surprise.
The civil servants also looked at Chao Yong with suspicion. The prince was a tyrant in their eyes. When the prince was in the court, they had to think carefully about their words, for fear that a wrong sentence would be engraved on a stone tablet. Unexpectedly, the prince now said that he would not be punished for his words. Doesn't that mean that as long as he does not agree with humiliation and suing for peace, he can say anything.
Chao Gai was open-minded and said with a smile: "This is a good one, good, accurate."
When all the officials heard that Chao Gai agreed, they immediately sang in unison: "The emperor is wise, the prince is wise."
This time, the officials praised him sincerely. After all, they no longer had to worry about losing their lives if they said the wrong thing. (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novels will be better and updated faster!)
