"Officials, recruiting soldiers is the most important thing! Our great Song Dynasty stationed troops in Khitan, and we also had to draw Khitans to serve in the military service, and we would garrison all directions for our great Song Dynasty. Han people could leave their hometowns and station all directions. Why are the Khitans and Dangxiang people not good? Their people should also become part of the army, just like the Jurchens."

This is very true. Zhao Zhen understands what his words mean. This will allow the Khitan to integrate into the Song Dynasty faster, and also make them feel that they belong to the Song Dynasty, making them feel that they are Song people, rather than Khitans who distinguish races.

"Is it considered a young man who bought the Khitan?"

"What do you think, official?"

"You are more ruthless in your actions, and you don't want to leave any room for the Khitans!"

"If you don't die, you will be backfired! Do you have any other ways? You can see from the performance of the Khitans now that it is almost impossible to completely kill them!"

Zhao Zhen nodded slightly, and Wang Yun expressed his thoughts, Khitan and Dangxiang and Jurchens were different.

The Jurchens did not establish a country, and the Dangxiang country was too short, and they did not have a sense of belonging to the nation. The Khitans were different. Their national destiny was longer than that of the Song Dynasty, and they fought for themselves with one sword and one shot.

To be honest, the Khitans' sense of national pride and belonging are much higher than that of Dangxiang and Jurchens, and are also more orthodox than the Song Dynasty, which was born with yellow robe and won the country due to mutiny.

However, the Khitan was not a Han civilization, and did not receive the cultural blessings of the Confucian and Han people for thousands of years. Without this halo orthodox nature, it fell to the same level as the Song Dynasty.

After all, "Big Brother, don't talk about the second brother."

…………………………

Wang Yun and Zhao Zhen, one king and one minister sat in front of the bonfire under the night sky, roasting steamed buns and drinking wine. They seemed to be free and easy, but they said the words of the Khitan to death.

Wang Yun is not a good person, and he, Zhao Zhen, is not even more so. The conversation between the two was about killing the Khitan to the ground, so that this nomadic people would never get up, but they were not thinking about how to conquer.

In their words, the Khitan had been conquered and had become part of the Song Dynasty. What they discussed was how to recover after the disaster and how to be ruled by the Song Dynasty.

As for the war... the two really didn't think there was any problem to discuss. The complete fall of Shangjing City was just in the past two days. After the country was destroyed, the Great Khitan Kingdom was only left to survive.

What if the Khitans who moved north were even in a bitter and cold place? The conquest of the Song Dynasty would arrive in an instant, but Zhao Zhen and Wang Yun both understood that this conquest was no longer a conquest of millions of troops, but was used to defeat the Khitan.

The difference between the two is obvious. Millions of troops are like swords and axes, opening and closing, and hundreds of thousands of elite troops are like carvings and carvings, carefully crafting.

If a million troops pursue the Khitans' migrated north and attack the entire northern grassland, the consumption would be unaffordable for the Song Dynasty. At present, the millions of troops completely took down Linheng Mansion was already the limit of the Song Dynasty.

The daily consumption is so huge that millions of people are not supported by themselves, but are maintained by the court. There are tens of thousands of vehicles transporting food every day. This is better to prepare early, otherwise there will be no number of people who starve to death.

This battle emptied all Zhao Zhen's family. All the military rations and property accumulated over the years were poured into the Northern Expedition. It seemed that the torrent of the Song Dynasty was advancing rapidly, but in fact it had already been exhausted.

But these cannot be seen at all, especially in front of Zhang Jian. Therefore, Zhao Zhen asked the army to station and was not in a hurry to catch up, but in fact, he had already sent elite cavalry. Otherwise, where would Zhang Zhou's troops from Tokyo Road go?

With a bite of barbecue and wine, the night of the grassland is comfortable and comfortable, the sky is wide, the stars are boundless, the vastness of the universe and the magnificence of the grassland are all accompaniment. Only the current bonfire, oil-dropping lamb, crispy steamed buns and fine wine are the present!

He waved to Sancai on the side and said, "What are Zhang Jian doing?"

"Sitting alone in the tent, no movement."

"Have you eaten?"

"Not moving..."

Sancai and Wang Yun both looked at Zhao Zhen strangely. Could it be that the official family still wanted to invite him to have a meal together?

Zhao Zhen smiled: "Split these barbecue and let him eat it and go on the road. I was trapped in the Khitan army back then. This old man gave him a lot of food. It was my return to him, but... I will never see a chance of separation today!"

Sancai nodded with understanding: "The day the official executed..."

Zhao Zhen was shocked: "Who asked you to kill him?! Send him away, what are you going to do?"

Ga...

Sancai stood there and Wang Yun bent around him. In their opinion, this was an incredible thing. Who is Zhang Jian? The leader of the Khitan civil officials, like the prime minister of the Song Dynasty, was even the prince's tutor!

How can such a high-ranking and powerful person be released just by saying that he is released? Even if he is not a sacrificial flag, he should be trapped in the Song Dynasty and use this to shock the Khitan.

"Why don't you go quickly? I don't want to see him in the army for a moment, it's annoying!"

Sancai left timidly. He knew Zhao Zhen’s temperament too much. No one could change his ideas and could only execute them.

Zhao Zhen let Zhang Jian leave naturally had his own considerations. Zhang Jian's confidence was completely blown away, and the power of the Song Dynasty was fully visible in front of him. At this time, what was needed was not destruction, but attack.

As a senior executive of the Khitan, after seeing the power of the Song Dynasty, he was basically desperate. How many blows did he deal with him after going to the capital?

Since he supported the Khitan's migration north, he would let him go. It was difficult to conquer the Khitan, but it was not impossible. So what if there were millions of people? After the Song Dynasty seized Shangjing, it could be used as a basis and conquered it continuously.

In the end, the Khitan will be completely defeated, and the next step is to rule the grassland.

Conquest is not a problem, rule is the ultimate goal. There is a big difference between the two. The former can be achieved quickly, but otherwise it will require a long-term operation.

There were few people from Dangxiang Jurchens, and they could migrate to the territory of the Song Dynasty, and their land could be cultivated by the Han people. However, the Khitan was different, and Zhao Zhen dared not think about the cost of migration, and the grassland was a little unfamiliar to the Han people.

Even if the Han people can control the grassland, it will take a lot of time, not just putting people on the grassland.

To put it bluntly, the Han people don’t even know what the “sheep plate” is, so how do they grazed?

The so-called sheep plate is the sheep's feces accumulation when grazing in the pasture every year. Don't underestimate this thing. In winter, sheep must rely on these sheep plates to keep their body away from the ground, otherwise they will have frozen to death.

It is not easy to find a sheep plate on the vast grassland, let alone the skills and experience required when grazing.

Zhao Zhen always felt that the best way to rule the Khitan was not to let the Khitans move inward, nor to high-pressure rule, but a great fusion and assimilation.

It is simple to say, migrate the Han people to the grassland in the name of help, and then take out the Han people's best things, form a city, enter the service industry and manufacturing industry, and thus prosper the culture and life of the grassland city.
