    New Year's Eve is coming.  Yelu Longxu had no choice. He was not a fool. Zhao Heng might not take seriously what he said about his subordinates or the fate of the whole clan, but this was a step down for him.  However, if you don¡¯t surrender, you will be waiting for death.  I believe that once dusk arrives, the Song army will definitely launch a general attack from all directions in order to have good luck in the new year.  With so few soldiers and horses, the three armies have already lost their strength, and they are frustrated. No matter how they fight, even if they fight back, they are killed by their younger brothers.  So he sent Xiao Taolin to the Song army camp to ask for surrender.  Ninety percent of the soldiers still hated the Liao Kingdom, including Song Jiu.  But the overall situation must be taken into account, the way of governance must be to use both grace and power. If the power is enough, if the Song Dynasty had not intentionally released them, there would probably be no more than 5,000 Liao soldiers who could escape.  All 300,000 people were gone in one fell swoop.  Therefore, we must also take care of grace.  Why did Li Shimin adopt the two Khans Jieli? Not only did they restrain Li Jing and other heroes, but their presence could appease the hearts of the Turkic people in the north.  So Yelulongxu was granted the title of Taibao of the Liao Kingdom and concurrently as the chief official of the government and the three divisions of Tongpingzhangshi.  After all, he is the emperor of a big country.  The face is enough.  ??And personally asked Yelu Longxu what he meant. Xiao Yanyan died, and the body was well kept in the Song Dynasty. Whether it was sent to the Liao Kingdom for burial or buried in Gong County.  Yelu Longxu thought for a long time, and finally said sadly: "Send it to Shangjing." But it is estimated that the name Shangjing will also be changed.  Started to surrender.  After the Liao army was reorganized and surrendered, some important generals and officials of the Liao Kingdom were awarded idle positions. The official positions were very high, but they were not bad posts.  Maybe I will use them in the future, but I won't use them right now.  But killing Xiao Taolin, the culprit of this invasion, not only did this man commit many evil acts in the Battle of Wangdu.  He was also the main demagogue of the invasion.  Then the three armies cheered and celebrated New Year's Eve here.  Of course it was not as lively as the New Year's Eve in Kaifeng, but as the news spread, the entire Song Dynasty almost went crazy with joy.  It is said that after the news was sent to the capital on the second day of the first lunar month, the entire capital fell into a sea of ??cheers.  I don¡¯t know how many people got drunk happily that day.  However, the army cannot delay.  As the food and grass gradually arrived, the Song army divided into several groups and officially began the battle to regain Yanyun.  The slogan is big, but the scale of the battle is small.  "If Xiao Yanyan was still there, if there had not been this tragic defeat, the Liao Kingdom could still gather 300,000 troops.  However, Xiao Yanyan is no longer here.  Failed so miserably again.  Most of them belong to the direct army of Liao State. Where can we summon so many troops?  It can be summoned, but it is not a direct lineage. It is forcibly summoned from other tribes. If the branches are weak and the branches are strong, will something worse happen?  Of course an army must be recruited.  But it must be mainly Khitan and Xi people, but how many can be recruited is a question mark, and how long it will take is a question mark.  Therefore, after Yelu Longqing quickly ascended the throne, he immediately issued an edict to withdraw Yan Yun's army and try to save the people and wealth as much as possible.  And the officials also withdrew.  Some officers and soldiers were left to resist and gain time for the retreat.  It was not Yelu Longqing who heard Xiao Guanyinnu¡¯s suggestion, but the situation forced him to do so.  Not only the 300,000 soldiers and horses, but also many people behind the mountain were lost.  The Liao Kingdom fell into a trap, and the Song army quickly moved northward and soon reached the city.  The Liao Kingdom did not have enough troops to contend with it.  Even if Brother Yelvxiu is alive, he cannot save this situation.  The only way is to withdraw the army from Yanyun so that we can concentrate our forces to compete with the coming army of the Song Dynasty.  But Yelu Longqing¡¯s talent was just that, he gave up the fourteen states of Yanyun, and Youzhou was Beijing.  Shunzhou is Shunyi, Beijing, Ruzhou is Yanqing, Beijing, Tanzhou is Miyun, Beijing, Jizhou is Jixian, Tianjin, and Zhuozhou is Zhuozhou.  Yingzhou is Hejian, Hebei, Mozhou is Renqiu, Hebei, Xinzhou is Zhuolu, Hebei, Guizhou is Huailai, Hebei, Wuzhou is Xuanhua, Hebei, Yuzhou is Yuxian, Yingzhou is Yingxian, Huanzhou Shuozhou  In the east, Shuozhou and Yunzhou are Datong.  Nowadays, the names of some states have been changed, and some states have been annexed.  They are basically within the Great Wall.  However, within the Great Wall, there was also a vast area east of Jizhou and Tanzhou, which was later the southern area of ??Qinhuangdao and the Tangshan area.  It was called Pingzhou in the Tang Dynasty, but before Shi Jingtang ceded the Yanyun Fourteenth Prefecture, the Liao Kingdom had already acquired Pingzhou a few years ago, as well as Zunhua County in the north of Jizhou. Later, the Liao Kingdom changed Zunhua County to Jingzhou.  Pingzhou was divided into three, named Pingzhou, Yingzhou and Luanzhou. It had nothing to do with that cession, but it was also lost in the hands of Shi Jingtang.  Therefore, Yelu Longqing had a lucky idea and tacitly agreed to give up the fourteen states of Yanyun, but he did not give up Jingzhou, Pingzhou, Yingzhou and Luanzhou.  Aren't you, the Song Dynasty, fighting for the fourteen states of Yanyun? I'll give it to you, what else do you want?  The Liao Dynasty wanted to give way, and the Song Dynasty took great strides to withdraw. However, when they reached Jingzhou, the Song army stopped automatically.  However, the Song Dynasty did something that made Yelu Longqing very sad.As a matter of concern, in addition to taking over the fourteen states of Yanyun, the Song Dynasty also intended to take over the vast areas outside the Great Wall such as Yunnei Prefecture, central and southern Fengzhou, Dezhou and Dongsheng Prefectures. The Emperor of the Song Dynasty also issued an edict to change Dezhou to  It was named Xuandezhou, Yunzhou was changed to Jiuyuan, and Fengzhou was changed to Yunzhong.  This reminded him of the ancient maps of the Qin Dynasty.  The ancient trunk line of the ancient Great Wall is now the northern boundary of the fourteen states of Yanyun. There are also some inner Great Walls, such as the ancient Great Wall in Shuozhou and the ancient Great Wall in the Taihang Mountains. Some were built during the Warring States Period, and some were expanded by the Qin Dynasty.  , However, since the Warring States Period, there is still an ancient Great Wall that has been forgotten.  That is the Great Wall of Beizhao and the Great Wall of Yan. The Great Wall of Beizhao covers the entire Yinshan area. It is built to the north of Yinshan and covers all Yinshan together. It also has several nice names for these areas north of Yunshuo. The westernmost one is  Xianyang, to the east are Jiuyuan, Yuanyang, Yunzhong, Yuanyang, Wuquan and so on.  That is to say, these Yunzhong areas are now captured by the Song Dynasty.  The other Great Wall is even more disgusting, and that is the Yan Great Wall. It connects to the North Zhao Great Wall and winds all the way to the northeast, covering the entire Luan River Basin and the middle and lower reaches of the Liao River. It crosses the Yalu River and stops only when it approaches Pyongyang, Goryeo.  The entire Zhongjing area of ??the Liao Kingdom, as well as Tokyo, Shenzhou and the Liaodong Peninsula in Liaodong, as far north as Tongzhou, which was originally occupied by Wu Xuanming.  This Great Wall was renovated in the Qin Dynasty, and Jiuyuan County, Yunzhong County, Liaoxi County and Liaodong County were established.  Then Liu Bang was humiliated by the Huns, and the ancient Great Wall was gradually destroyed by the Huns, and it was never rebuilt again. ?? Could it be that the Song Dynasty had such a big appetite that it wanted to restore the northern boundary of the Qin Dynasty, not just the sixteen states of Yanyun?  The Song Dynasty had a big appetite.  Yelu Longqing couldn't tell.  This miserable ghost was very miserable in history, but he may still be miserable at this time.  Song Jun stopped temporarily.  The first step is to build Tianjin Port and set up a municipal shipping department.  ??There is a bad thing about where the Juma River enters the sea, that is, the water and soil in Hebei are gradually deteriorating at this time.  Therefore, there is a lot of silt at the entrance to the sea, making it extremely inconvenient for large ships to navigate.  But it is also advantageous. The port built here can be connected to the Hebei region through various rivers. It can communicate with many areas in Youzhou through rivers such as the Sanggan River.  If finances permit, the Yong Canal of the Sui Dynasty will be rebuilt.  Then Youzhou can be reconnected with Jiangnan.  With a seaport and a shipping company, the economy here will soon flourish.  But this proposal was still opposed by many ministers. It was too close to the Hu people, and the people of Youzhou still remembered the benefits of the Liao Kingdom.  Song Jiu sneered: "Do you still want the Liao Kingdom to exist?" "Are you still cowardly after such a great victory?" A big hat of cowardice was slapped down.  Silence fell.  With the warmth of spring and the blooming of flowers, a large amount of supplies are shipped from various places by sea-going ships.  The Song Dynasty began to rebuild Youzhou City.  Zhao Heng was busy meeting with various elders to comfort the people.  It¡¯s a show, and it¡¯s the emperor himself who is doing the show.  At the same time, the tax policy of the Song Dynasty was clarified. Compared with the taxation of the Liao Kingdom, it depends on how you look at it. The taxation is almost heavy.  Even the Song Dynasty was a little heavier.  However, the taxes in the Song Dynasty were distributed more evenly, while the Liao Dynasty was still under the influence of the Tang Dynasty. The aristocrats had very low or even no taxes, and the common people were the most miserable.  Yelu Longqing withdrew many dignitaries, but it brought convenience to the reconstruction of the Song Dynasty.  And the Yanyun area was still under the tribal system of the Tang Dynasty. As these powerful people fled, the tribal system was eliminated.  They also repealed some discriminatory laws, promoted education, and even issued edicts.  The entire Yanyun area will be exempted from two taxes for three years. Relevant laws will be implemented as appropriate, and the people will be benefited first, and then all corvee will be abolished by edict, if it is government employment.  It must be hired, and the amount of money and days of employment are stipulated.  Or to prevent bad things from happening to officials, so the number of days is limited.  After three years of full exemption of the two taxes, only half of the two taxes will be paid for the next three years.  In order to allow the people to rest and recuperate, only commercial taxes were not exempted. However, the Liao State also levied commercial taxes, and the tax rate was higher than that of the Song Dynasty.  Those who do not pay business taxes are the powerful ones and have nothing to do with these small and medium-sized businessmen who did not escape.  The policy on the other side of Yunzhong is different.  The majority of people here are Hu people, mostly Dangxiang people, Qiang people, Tuyuhun people, and Tubo people. A small number of Khitan people have evacuated.  There are also some Han Chinese.  It is unrealistic to levy two taxes here, so the tax policy of Nanhetao is still the same. The imperial court mainly adopts a semi-regular system with officials and stationed officers and soldiers, but only levies commercial taxes. Ethnic affairs are handled internally by them. Officials try their best to mediate and try their best to  Do not interfere in their internal affairs.  But one more thing was done, which was to award rewards and divide territories.  There are governors, governors, and county magistrates, all of whom are free of charge. More than four hundred people were banned at once, and even a small tribe leader with a hundred or so households could get away with it.?? County magistrate Dangdang.  They were all leaders, and under the pretext of fearing conflicts between them, the imperial court sent officers and soldiers to help them divide the territories in various places.  On the surface, the Song Dynasty did an impeccable job, but the tribes here were not united and there were too many vendettas against each other.  In fact, with this letter, the entire Yunzhong region has become more than 400 small forces.  The largest governor only has 2,000 households.  As long as there are no leaks in the court, there will be no harm.  This has been the harm done since the Han and Tang dynasties. Especially the Tang Dynasty, which learned from Zhuge Liang's policies, liked to support agents. An agent often had the power to govern a large area. As a result, Nanzhao grew stronger, Khitan grew stronger, and Tubo grew stronger  Now the Song Dynasty did the opposite.  ¡°Perhaps this will give officials a little headache, but there will be no heroic founding of the country.  But in general, the previous opening up of the wool trade route made these people's environment better than that of Yanyun. At least they were closer to the Song Dynasty than the current Han people in Yanyun.  Under the jurisdiction of the Song Dynasty, the taxation was no less than that of the Song Dynasty. The Song Dynasty only levied commercial taxes, and the Liao Dynasty also levied mostly commercial taxes. However, some miscellaneous taxes and military service were unavoidable, and it suffered from discrimination. But in the Song Dynasty,  No more under the rule.  Therefore, in addition to disputes over the division of territory, most tribes cheered when they heard the arrival of the Song army.  Then two officials were appointed. Wang Yu, who performed well in Hebei, was appointed as the magistrate of Bingzhou, and Zhao Yanwo was appointed as the magistrate of Youzhou.  These two officials are both literary and military, and both are the best candidates.  He also asked the veteran general Pei Ji to be the governor of Yunzhong and deploy the four prefectures of Jiuyuan, Xuande, Dongsheng and Yunzhou.  Zhao Heng¡¯s actions in Youzhou were not over yet. He also allocated a lot of money and silk to hire soldiers and civilians to plant drought-resistant trees on the outside of Yanshan Mountain in Yinshan Mountain, mixed with various dense shrubs.  They also sent people to find many coal mines, started to burn bricks, and simply renovated the ancient Great Wall. As for the Great Wall in Yinshan, there was no foundation at all. At least there is no financial resources to renovate the Great Wall at the moment, but many checkpoints have been repaired.  It will cost a lot of money, but the Central Plains has three barriers. The first is Yinshan Mountain, the second is the ancient Great Wall, and the third is the line from Juma River to Yanmen Pass.  In the end, Zhao Heng obeyed Wang Qinruo's wishes and changed Youzhou to Jingdecheng, treating it as the Beijing of the Song Dynasty in order to govern and stabilize Yanyun.  Song Jiu founded the army with the reign name, and Wang Qinruo built the city with the reign name. This made Kou Zhun almost turn against Wang Qinruo on the spot.  However, Song Jiu did not comment or disagree and actually expressed his agreement.  Wang Qinruo definitely wanted to flatter him, so he could use the reign name as the city's name and establish it as Beijing. This showed the respect of the court, and Zhao Heng and officials would also pay attention to it in the future.  Before the people of Yanyun completely returned home and before the Liao Kingdom was destroyed, there were still many variables, especially the people in the northern part of Yanyun.  March is here, and the entire Yunzhong Yanyun is under construction.  With the implementation of various preferential policies, the people gradually became stable.  In any case, although it is difficult for people to have a sense of national pride now, the actual policy is more benevolent than that of the Liao Dynasty.  Yelu Longqing sent an envoy tentatively. ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? off out of Yanyun and even all of Yunzhong to your country.  Song Jiu asked: "If you don't return it to our dynasty, do you still want to take it back?" The envoy was speechless.  Song Jiu said: "If you want to reconcile, there are only two things. One is to become a vassal, and the other is to return Pingzhou to our country." Why you want to get Yanyun, it is mainly for strategic defense. However, Pingzhou is still in the hands of the Liao State.  What strategic defense is there?
