Chapter 1737 The road is blocked and long
The sound of merchants' hawking, the sound of men's recruiting customers, and the sound of children's reading, all of this appeared in Hulunbuir City, which seemed so harmonious and complementary.
Zhao Zhen stood in front of the tent with one hand on his back, and took a sip of milk tea with the other hand. He was very satisfied with the changes in the grassland. During this period, Liu Yong basically met his expectations.
Hulunbuir City was built very fast. With the emergence of the academy, the people here already had a basic belonging.
Children are the future of a nation at any time. After the academy was completed, the people of the Tatar tribe rushed to send their children in. Even Liu Yong did not expect that the local people were so enthusiastic about reading.
Because the academy is large in scale and is divided into many levels, there is no restriction on the recruitment of people in the city. It is okay to be older, as long as you have Hulunbuir household registration, this is the only restriction.
Not only were there people from the Tatar tribe, but even the Siqin tribe, which had just arrived and had a small population, sent children to the academy to study, so it goes without saying that the Han people.
Most of these Han people were the families of merchants from the Song Dynasty. Because they opened shops in Hulunbuir City, they naturally brought their families and children to the entourage. After all, this is a long-term thing and is far away from their hometown, but they cannot relax their education for their children.
The three children from different cultural hometowns in the academy merged together. Through cultural education, they gradually got along well, which also prompted the people of Hulunbuir City to get along well.
The academies are changing children's thoughts and their inherent things. The benefits of Confucianism are developed, and all children are saying: "If you don't know etiquette, you can't stand."
Parents naturally ask: "What is etiquette."
Next, the idea that the academy instills in children appears in the parents' minds, with the highest and lowest level, loyalty to the emperor and patriotism, acceptance of education, respecting ancestors, and filial piety first......
Wait for all this, it sounds completely fine. No one wants to become a barbarian. Now people on the grassland know that they are called barbarians by the Song Dynasty. The ultimate reason is that they do not understand etiquette and law, so they must be educated!
The place is stable and peaceful, the economy is developing rapidly, and the lives of the local people are getting better and better. Zhao Zhen felt a little stable in his heart. Sure enough, his plan was successful and changed the Hulunbuir grassland.
The people have a belonging in their hearts, not in the original Tatar tribe, but in the Song Dynasty. All they have done is to make the people on the grassland change their belongings in their hearts.
Let him have "Only with the Song Dynasty, there is a life we have now, not because of the grassland or the Tatar tribe."
This is a fundamental change and a cognitive change. The people of the Tatar tribe are step by step breaking away from their inherent ideas, accepting new things, and accepting the rule of the Song Dynasty.
Everything that happened here was caused by the emergence of Hulunbuir City, of course, which also caused a sensation in the entire grassland. Gradually, some weak and scattered tribes began to move towards Hulunbuir City. The transportation here is convenient and the resources here are concentrated. All their needs can be met in Hulunbuir City.
This also means that the urbanization process on the grassland has completely begun.
Under the leadership of Sancai, Liu Yong passed through layers of guards to the palace tent. Zhao Zhen put down the teacup in his hand and said, "You have done a good job during this period. In the future, I will leave the things on the grassland to you. You should know my intention!"
Liu Yong nodded and said, "I understand, I will definitely not let Your Majesty down!"
Zhao Zhen began to cross the grassland. The biggest difference between this emerging city and the Song Dynasty was that the ground in the city was mostly grassland, and the feet felt soft and soft on it.
"The news has begun to be transmitted to the outside world, but the effect is not as expected. It is all small tribes and scattered herders coming, but the big tribes still have no movement."
Liu Yong smiled bitterly when he heard this, "The official family, the walls of Hulunbuir City have not been closed yet, the road has not been built yet, and not far north is the Kashuo under the Khitans... Hulun Lake, the tribes in the west are naturally still waiting and watching."
"I'm still watching?! My iron hooves have already stepped on the enemy's troops. I'm still hesitating at this time, and I'm lucky! Could it be that my great power of the Song Dynasty is still inferior to the Khitans?"
Zhao Zhen's voice increased a little, and he was both kind and powerful. He had already used all the methods he could use, but there was still no movement from the closest Wugu tribe.
Liu Yong was not panicked, but said seriously: "The first thing for the official family is to make the Ugu tribe surrender, and naturalize the Tatar tribe is to be in vain, and the enemy Lie tribe is to be in a state of power. The empathy and power have been fulfilled. I believe that the Ugu tribe should make a decision, but it will take some time for them to be in a state of power."
Zhao Zhen stood still slightly, and he knew he couldn't be anxious, but the Khitans were still surviving, just like a heart-wrenching illness in the north, and now he is facing a choice.
Should we directly send troops to conquer the Khitan and consume a lot of effort to destroy the disaster in the north, or should we build grasslands and carry out conquests simultaneously?
The entire grassland is too big and inconvenient. If it is carried out at the same time, even with the current national strength of the Song Dynasty, it may be detrimental. However, my goal is very clear and I must make the entire grassland a jurisdiction of the Song Dynasty.
Now Zhao Zhen has begun to doubt whether the goal he set was a little too big. In his influence, there was no difference between the grassland and the future generations, but it was not until he actually arrived that the current grassland and the future generations were completely different.
Apart from the sporadic cities, there are almost no cities here, and the largest place is just a tribe tent that is lived in.
It was too big. It was not until now that Zhao Zhen understood why later generations had to build highways and railways on the grasslands and plateaus. Even if they paid a great price, they had to continue. Because without these two things, the connection between the heartland of the Central Plains and the grassland was broken.
Basic soldiers and materials delivery will become a huge problem. This kind of delivery will last for many years and not for a short time.
Zhao Zhen suddenly smiled bitterly. The dynasties in China have never pacified the grasslands. It’s not that they didn’t think of a solution, but that most emperors thought of urbanization like themselves.
Chinese civilization has been in a thousand years, and there are many emperors with extraordinary talents. How could it be that they did not think about urbanization? But obviously such behavior is unrealistic for dynasties in history.
Kings of all dynasties have thought that it is better to spend money on urbanization on raising soldiers, but they will spend less. Although they cannot be stable for a long time, it is also an urgent solution.
