Faced with this shameless spirit that has reached an invincible height, even Iron Rooster Cao has no choice but to return. However, he saw on the way that the Koreans continued to shelter the people and powerful people from Liaodong who had escaped. Song Jiu sighed after hearing this: "The areas around us are either cold, hot, or in arid areas such as the Gobi Desert or mountainous areas where it is difficult to survive. Therefore, the mainstream thinking in China has been against opening up borders since ancient times." Cao Take advantage of the nod. In fact, the Song Dynasty was not very interested in the so-called Goryeo. If the Liao Kingdom was not too powerful and clung to Yan Yun, the gateway to the Song Dynasty, the Song Dynasty would not have used troops on such a large scale against the Liao Kingdom. Including Dali, Hehuang, and the Hexi Corridor, although Song Jiu proposed it, many ministers did not agree to use troops against them in the future. "This idea is actually wrong, including Liaodong. You can wait and see if Liaodong is still a bitter and cold place in a few years?" "Just like Lingnan?" "I'm afraid it won't work. Lingnan is because of the weather. The reason is that you can have three crops a year, while Liaodong can only do one crop a year. However, the weather in Lingnan is hot and you are not afraid of cold weather. Cotton is widely available. There are also many coal deposits in Liaodong. At worst, wear more clothes in winter and don't go out. . But what to do if it¡¯s hot? You can¡¯t peel off the heat, and because of the heat, mosquitoes and flies are everywhere, so each has its own advantages and disadvantages. However, the weather in the south is very bad, but the crops are easy to harvest. It's cold, but the land is fertile. Even in the western desert area, if everyone consciously protects the water and soil, and cultivates livestock and crops, it is not a place where they can't settle. " "There are several reasons why the Koreans dare to do this. The first one is my country. Not the Liao Kingdom. It is precisely because the mainstream ideology is against opening up the border, so the Koreans are not afraid of it. The second reason is that everyone despises this nation's tenacity and shamelessness." Cao Liang laughed. "There are still some resistance forces in the Northeast since the third period, but the war has been going on for almost a year, and almost 80% of the country's forbidden troops have been used, as well as countless rural soldiers, Xiang soldiers and ordinary people. The soldiers are gradually getting tired of the war, and the national finance has reached the limit. The extreme. I believe Goryeo is also aware of this information. Although Goryeo is a small country and even its capital city is not as big as ours, most of the cities are built close to the mountains, so it is easy to defend and difficult to attack. It took hundreds of thousands of troops to conquer Kaijing City. In the end, faced with the resistance of the Koreans and the containment of our government, we had to withdraw our troops and even break the ground for them. " "This is the most important reason. , wrong, the most important reason is the mistake of our policy of opening up borders. It is difficult to defeat them because of the different civilizations and races, but it is even more difficult to conquer them, but there is also a serious mistake in the way of defeating them. Just like Jiaozhi, I was dismissed from office because of this. In fact, I did not blame Emperor Taizu for that dismissal, but I did not agree with Emperor Taizu's ideas. It is for the sake of governance internally, but how can it be justified externally? For example, when the Western Jin Dynasty collapsed, the Tang army was defeated, and hundreds of thousands of people in Bashu were defeated. The captives were all gone. If they were to be moral to Dangxiang, they would almost endanger the whole northwest. If they were to be moral to Jiaozhi again, although they were very honest, they would cooperate with the barbarians in the south and buy the people of our country as slaves. If this continues, I believe that Jiaozhi will harm the southern border. "Song Jiu suddenly thought of his past life, China was very moral, and as a result, he cultivated many good neighbors and was surrounded by enemies. The US imperialism is not good. It has made many small countries feel less like a country and less like a family, but they still have many friends. "Actually, this idea is wrong. What Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty did was not wrong. He created peace in the north for hundreds of years. His mistake was that he used excessive troops, which led to the overthrow of troops. The same was true for Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty. He conquered Goguryeo twice. The use of troops is too heavy. But what about using troops appropriately? Just like what I did in Lingnan, plundering wealth ensured the military expenditure and frightened many barbarians in the south. People, Lingnan quickly entered the stage of development. As for what Jiaozhi looked like after the plunder, what does it have to do with our country? Even if the country still has many poor people, it can still control the outside people. Life or death? How about Jiaozhi? If Hou Renbao's careless use of troops did not lead to the defeat of Bai Tengjiang, Jiaozhi would be more honest. "This is the difference between internal and external affairs." Jiu thought for a while and felt that there was little point in talking to Cao Li. He could only remind him, and then return to Beijing to report to Zhao Heng with a clear mind. So he wrote a memorial and delivered it to the capital. In fact, this is his idea of ??using troops appropriately and not forgetting the armament, which he learned from the American emperor. ? ??Speaking of morality, even if there is no morality and no reason to send troops, excuses can still be found, and excuses can be created even if there are no excuses. ??A moderately aggressive idea that promotes shallow attack tactics. But Song Jiu immediately had a headache. There are still a lot of things in Liaodong, which have not been completely pacified internally. Moreover, how to manage them after they are pacified is also a headache. It is easy to cure them, but it is very difficult to cure them. Also, everyone in Shangyang Mansion is very happy. Tens of thousands of tribes have come to court, but not every tribe has come to court. Some tribes are hostile to the Song Dynasty. Although there are not many, most tribes are waiting to see the Song Dynasty. with doubtful thoughts. "Korea is causing trouble again." If left unchecked, they will win over more Uobin people, even the Changbai Mountain Tribe (tribes living in the Changbai Mountains on both sides of the Baichi), and even the Lu Maoduo Tribe (tribes in the northern part of the Changbai Mountains, from Dunhua to Yanji). But if you want them to be obedient, morality is no longer enough. You must use force. But how does the Song Dynasty use troops now? There are troops stationed in Liaodong. In the future, there will be more than 100,000 forbidden troops here to train, garrison, and intimidate various tribes. However, this small amount of troops was still not enough to launch a large-scale war to conquer Goryeo. It would be better not to fight if it hurts. What's terrible is that Goryeo is very important in the Song-Jiu plan. Once the Hun Tong River is dredged, ships can sail to the Hun Tong River and even the Duck River. Korea is an important transit point. This multiple-choice question is more difficult to choose than whether to suppress Wang Qinruo. When the first snow came in the second year of Jingde, Song Jiu finally received Zhao Heng¡¯s edict. There must be no trouble with Goryeo, even with the so-called Gaima Mountain. As long as we can reconcile with Goryeo, let's give in. However, according to the eunuch who passed the order, Cao Li left Goryeo earlier. Goryeo also sent an envoy to Kaifeng to meet him and express his sincerity. Then he praised the Song Dynasty for unifying the north and flattered Zhao Heng. Only then did he make the request. Very tactful. And the country¡¯s finances continue to be in crisis. That's why this edict came into being. From the perspective of the Song Dynasty, it can be released or not. The overall policy of the Song Dynasty is to defend the country from the outside and is not so eager to expand its territory. "The mountains on both sides of the Changbai Mountains beside the Yalu River are vast and vast, and the court cannot really manage them. Even Song Jiu couldn't do it in the Northeast. Rather than operating the Changbai Mountains, it is more realistic to operate the upper reaches of the Luan River on the west side of the Liu River. Song Jiu did not comment on this, let alone whether the Koreans would push their limits. He also wants to slowly invade the land of Liaodong, even if he opens up the memories of his previous life, he doesn't want to leave this stain in the annals of history. But it is temporarily impossible to use troops against the Koreans. Song Jiu did not express his position and continued to watch the Koreans move away the people of Liaodong. The invasion of Changbai Mountain continued to the point where Wang Shu couldn¡¯t stand it any longer If the layout of the two Song Dynasties in time and space were removed, even if Song Jiu could be elevated to the throne. It's not an exaggeration. But in this time and space, no one underestimates Song Jiu¡¯s contribution. Including Zhao Heng added a long list of various official positions, ranks and titles to Song Jiu. In fact, it is an acknowledgment of Song Jiu's contribution. However, Song Jiu also has many shortcomings. For example, his fighting spirit was low, so he lacked the courage to reform various shortcomings of the Song Dynasty. At least the reforms in government affairs were not as bold as Zhao Heng during the Xianping period. This is similar to Yao Chong in the Tang Dynasty, or Lu Yijian in history, which is a step-by-step reform, or fine-tuning. Therefore, the Song Dynasty still has many shortcomings. The second is Song Jiu¡¯s luxurious life. Logically speaking, his luxury is not excessive. Now Song Jiu can be said to be truly wealthy, but everyone thinks this is what he deserves. But this first-grade wealth has made two very bad starts. First, officials openly engage in business. It can only be said that under the leadership of Song and Jiu, although scholar-bureaucrats engaged in business, they began to slowly pay business taxes, bringing more to the country. However, the business tax revenue of scholar-bureaucrats is itself a very unfair phenomenon. Secondly, life is relatively luxurious. Although compared with Lu Mengzheng, who had to kill hundreds of chickens every day to eat chicken tongues, or compared with Kou Zhun's entertainment-oriented life, Song Jiu was a little better, but Song Jiu also had a different attitude towards life. The more exquisite things, such as the "air-conditioned" houses in the capital, and the dowry of hundreds of thousands of yuan for each daughter's marriage Therefore, famous officials such as Song Jiu and Kou Zhun are gradually leading the scholar-bureaucrats of the Song Dynasty into a misunderstanding. But compared with Kou Zhun, Song Jiu was slightly better. He enjoyed himself when he should have fun and endured hardship when he should. He even enjoyed himself with the people and the soldiers. Just like in the first year of Youzhou Road, he almost I have been running around for nearly ten months and visited various areas on Youzhou Road. Moreover, this kind of running has not stopped, and may continue until the end of his term. During the running process, he is not running between cities, but traveling all over the country.They visited mountains and rivers, villages and villages, and even went to people's homes to eat the people's corn and rice together, or slaughtered cows and roasted sheep around the fire with the leaders of various ethnic groups. It was only when Luoxue arrived in the first year that the resistance in various places was barely suppressed. The next year, before the ice and snow melted, Song Jiu started running again. There are many things to do, such as stabilizing the ministries and building cities. Only with the city can there be commerce, can there be a defense base, can there be a higher level of civilization, and can the local people be better stabilized and civilized. Dredging rivers, building roads, developing commerce, promoting advanced planting methods and the new Green Great Wall, starting from Mantou Mountain and Yongan Mountain, to Songshan, to Liuhe, and to the ancient Great Wall of Tanshan Mountain. It is different from the ancient Great Wall. Although the ancient Great Wall was much destroyed, many of the foundations of the city walls are still there. At least some repairs were done at each pass. It was still possible with the financial resources of the Song Dynasty. But the cost of rebuilding a new Great Wall that is seven to eight hundred miles long is too high. Therefore, the Great Green Wall was rebuilt. On this long separation line of nearly 800 miles, extensive afforestation has been carried out, and the foundation is also very good. Due to Han planting in the lower reaches of the Liao River, many forests were cut down, causing the water of the Liao River to be slightly turbid. However, the forests in the Shangjing area have not been destroyed. Seriously, including this line, because the land is vast and sparsely populated, many areas already have dense mountain forests. All the Song Dynasty had to do was to allocate a sum of money to connect these mountains and forests together, and then plant some thorny shrubs and creepers in them, and then set up checkpoints at various passes. Since they were connected to the desert, Travel, trade, and communication can also play a defensive role. And in the future, this dense jungle area, which will be dozens of miles wide and seven or eight miles long, will also be able to protect the water and soil of Zhongping Prefecture well in the future. Even if the Yinshan forest takes shape, there may be no sandstorms in Youzhou in the future. Of course, not many people think that way, the key thing is its defensive function. ???????????????????? But the scale was not very large at the beginning. Now we need to stabilize the people of the Northeast, and we must lighten the burden of corvee, including corvee. The scale will be bigger next year, and it may not end until four or five years after Song Jiu left Northeast China. Autumn is gradually coming. Song Jiu arrived in Shenyang first. There were many prefectures and cities with Yang, and Shenzhou became Shenyang again. Dongyang Mansion is still centered on Dongyang City, but under the deliberate guidance of Song and Jiu Dynasties, the center gradually shifted to Shenyang, because it is the transportation hub to Luyang, Changchun and Korea, and Dongyang Mansion has the Dongliang River on the waterway, and Shenyang There is a Xiliang River in the state, and everyone is connected to each other. So the second academy appeared on Youzhou Road. The first academy was in Youzhou, which was renovated on the basis of the Imperial College in Nanjing City, Liao Dynasty. Zhao Heng drove the car to expand in Youzhou, and Zhao Heng personally wrote the inscription. Shenyang was the second one. An academy. In the future, Shangyang Prefecture, Luyang Prefecture, Zhongping Prefecture, and Changchun Prefecture will successively build four academies to teach children of all ethnic groups to read and read. The various Jisu tribes can also send their children to study and even teach the meaning of scriptures. Those who studied etiquette and Confucianism could also recommend outstanding students to come to the capital to participate in the imperial examination. Song Jiu hosted the unveiling ceremony and went to the outskirts of Shenzhou, where there was a good thing that was about to mature. But because it has attracted a good neighbor (To be continued)
