Chapter two thousand three hundred and fifty-eight news from the city of Luos

No one knows better the importance of the plateau to the Song Dynasty than Zhao Zhen, nor does anyone understand the geographical advantages of the plateau than Zhao Zhen. The Tubo people actually have the advantage, and this land is where they were born and raised.

War is a game, a game of survival. Both sides must work hard to win chips, and win and lose in the final struggle. No one hopes to fail. This is determined by the ancient genes melted in the blood.

On the one hand, it is more because of interests. It goes without saying that Tubo is in order to survive. What is Zhao Zhen? Is it the Song Dynasty's universe, to occupy the plateau and obtain barriers? Is it to conquer Tubo and be proud of China?

These are all, and none of them are. History is progressing, and Zhao Zhen doesn’t know what kind of situation the future will be. The most decisive thing in this world is that there is nothing absolute.

History is changing, some are near and some may be far away. Zhao Zhen is responsible for the future of the Song Dynasty. This seems impossible, but in fact it is not.

History has proved that a good social system will undergo many changes, and a superior system will make a country taller and more cohesive at some level.

Before doing these things, Zhao Zhen’s first thing he had to do was to eliminate the influence of the surrounding areas of the Song Dynasty, especially the influence or impact of foreign races on the Song Dynasty.

This is a very important thing. The Tubo Plateau must be taken down, and the land in the south must be strengthened. There are too many foreign tribes there. Of course, these lands were not part of the later generations for Zhao Zhen, but they are the places where they must be ruled now.

Sorry, I am now in history and I have to do what I have not done in the future. After all, Yue Dynasty was originally a part of China.

Since Qin Shihuang unified the six kingdoms, he sent a large army to cross Lingnan to occupy today's Guangxi, Guangdong, and Fujian, conquered the local Baiyue tribes, and established three counties in this area. Luoyue is also part of China's Xiang County.

At the end of the Qin Dynasty, the world was in chaos. Zhao Tuo, the Nanhai Wei of the Qin Dynasty, established himself as Queen Wu of Nanyue, and was renamed "Emperor Wu of Nanyue". The capital was Guangzhou on the East Road of Guangnan of the Song Dynasty. At that time, the central and northern Vietnam was already part of the Nanyue Kingdom.

Historical changes, but they cannot change the development of China, nor can they change the destiny of the land.

Emperor Wu of Han destroyed the South Vietnam Kingdom and established the three counties of Jiaozhi, Jiuzhen and Sunnan in northern and central Vietnam. For more than a thousand years, central and northern Vietnam has always been China's direct territory, including the Han Dynasty, Eastern Wu, Jin Dynasty, Southern Dynasty, Sui Dynasty, Tang Dynasty, Southern Han Dynasty, etc.

Even later Vietnam's independence called this period the "Northern Period" or the "County Period", which was the rule of China over South Vietnam.

In history, from the Song Dynasty, China gradually lost its rule over the three counties of Nanyue, but Zhao Zhen took back these lands and began to gradually expand. The Song Dynasty established twelve counties on that land, expanding its rule over the local area.

At the same time, it migrated and cultivated with a strong Han family population, and protected and assisted in reclamation with the army. There, the Song Dynasty was able to obtain the food needed, which also helped the country's security a lot.

With the arrest of Li Shengzong, the Emperor Li Rizun of the Li Dynasty, the Yue Dynasty collapsed completely. The greatest success of the Song Dynasty was to bring good life to the local people and also to bring a large amount of goods. Of course, these all require transactions.

Wealth is an eternal topic in this world. No one can’t get over money. Only by working and trading can life become colorful.

Zhao Zhen sat in a galloping carriage. Under such a fast march, no one could read or write. Although there was shock absorption, the road here was not the cement road of the Song Dynasty, and it was quite bumpy when marching.

Sancai saw more than once that the belt on the official's head was thrown high and thrown to the top of the carriage, but he still didn't dare to let someone lower the speed test. He just scolded the sergeant who drove the car, but was scolded by the official.

There is no delay in the march and war. Anyone must integrate into the army and become one. No one can be special, nor can they be independent of military law as a noble identity.

Zhao Zhen did not intend to follow the army to the front line, but if he wanted to understand everything about Tubo, he had to reach the front line. Of course, with the continuous advancement of the Yong'an Army and the Shenwei Army, the front line where Zhao Zhen was located would soon become the rear.

The main force of the Tubo people was attracted to the east and was trying to find a way to deal with Yang Huaiyu's 300,000 troops. This was a difficult and protracted battle and a tough battle that the Tubo people wanted to fight.

However, Tubo now has an advantage, which is much more unified than the previous tribal system, and also allows Tubo to be a solid foundation.

Religion and politics are mixed together, and Tubo religion has begun to gradually become more and more scented.

Zhao Zhen received some news from within Tubo. After all, some people could not resist the temptation of money, or were worried that the Song Dynasty would eliminate them after attacking Tubo. So some powerful figures in Tubo began to arrange their own way of retreat.

This is common in all dynasties and even in later generations. People are always selfish, and very few people can give everything for the righteousness of the country.

In this case, these people became the eyes and ears of the Song Dynasty. They would provide some information to the Song Dynasty and the black-handed people would do their best to send it out.

This is not a difficult thing. For Tubo, it is indeed not easy to search for secret spies, but it is easy to lock down the city. However, Tubo is facing war and it is impossible to completely close it.

The Tubo people have a strange logic, only allowing them to go out but not entering... Those who leave the city will not be subject to many investigations, but those who enter the city must strictly identify them, because before that, the Tubo people determined that there were no secret spies from the Song Dynasty in the city.

They had already cleaned up and caught a lot of people, so they felt that the Song people could no longer have any inner companions lurking in the city of Lushe.

But in fact, this is not the case. The conflict between the Song Dynasty and Tubo has reached a white-hot level. The emperors of the Song Dynasty have been masters of "Using the Sword" throughout the ages.

Since the reign of Emperor Taizong, the Song Dynasty sent many secret spies to the north. These people collected information, spyed on intelligence, and assassinated targets in every way.

But all Zhao Zhen needed was news from Luoshe City. The goal of the Yong'an Army and the Shenwei Army was Luoshe City, which was the heart of Tubo, and also the place where Jiaosiluo ruled. Of course, it was also the place where the Tubo people believed and belonged.

An important news Zhao Zhen received was that "there has been a conflict between Buddhism and Bon religion", which was tantamount to a timely rain for the Song Dynasty, and of course it was not a timely rain that affected the plan.
