Chapter 453 The Emperor's New Plan
Zhao Zhen's glorious words in the Daqing Hall spread rapidly throughout the city. Whether it was the peddlers or the nobles of aristocrats in the city, they were repeatedly chanting this sentence: The emperor guards the country's gates, and the king dies in the country!
This is a unique responsibility of the emperor and an admirable courage.
For a time, this sentence was discussed everywhere in the streets and alleys, and in the tiles and tiles. In everyone's eyes, the emperor's words are worth pondering repeatedly, because this is the most intuitive way to understand the emperor.
The night was getting cooler, but Tokyo City began to enter the beginning of the bustle.
The bustling Tokyo City will only begin to its colorfulness when it enters the darkness. After all, such a city requires great efforts. People who have been busy all day just enter the tavern and tile houses to relax at night.
The literati asked three or five friends to drink and have fun, and ordinary people gathered together to chat. Almost all places are open to the public, but the premise is that you have enough money...
Yelu Zongzheng, sitting in the tavern, frowned tightly. He always felt that the military exercises before the Song Dynasty had other purposes. In conjunction with the great spirit of Emperor Song this time, he vaguely felt that he had grasped something, but when he thought about it carefully, he seemed to have nothing to feel.
Yelu Jia leaned comfortably on the Qing Gongren. He was so heavy that he made the Qing Gongren blush. It was not shy but tired...
"The king is thinking so much about what he is saying, is it because of the generosity of the Emperor of Song?"
After saying that, he waved to the Qing Gongren. The Qing Gongren was as if he had been pardoned and quickly got up and ran away. In fact, this was just Yelujia's trick, in order to clear everyone in the room, including the Qing Gongren who was accompanying the wine.
As envoys of the Liao Dynasty, they felt that the Song Dynasty would definitely take special care of it.
After seeing the Qing Gongren leave in a hurry, Yelu Zongzheng shook his head slightly and said, "It's not because of the generosity of the Emperor of the Song Dynasty. You and I have lived in the Song Dynasty for a long time. They all know what kind of person the Song Dynasty official family is. He rarely says those empty and useless words. On the contrary, he has to see what he does. If he says today, then in connection with the previous Song Dynasty military exercises, I always feel that something is wrong, but I can't imagine it."
Yelu Jia nodded slightly and said, "Indeed, the Emperor of the Song Dynasty said that the emperor guarded the country's gates and the king died in the country, not only to block the people from Xijing who submitted the memorial to move the capital this time, but also a kind of responsibility and declaration."
Yelu Zongzheng frowned slightly: "Responsibility, declaration? It should not be that simple. He also warned future generations not to travel south to avoid disaster... This is a bit unpredictable."
Yelujia put down the burden in his heart, raised his head and drank the wine in his glass and said, "The King is thinking too much. Maybe the Emperor of Song Dynasty is just to block the mouths of those people in Xijing. After all, the matter of moving the capital has caused a lot of controversy in Tokyo. If the king of a country still doesn't speak, it will inevitably make people feel lucky. Look, what Emperor of Song Dynasty said today has made the city of Tokyo stable?"
Yelu Zongzheng nodded slightly. It was true. Now basically no one said anything about moving the capital to Luoyang in Xijing. As long as you dare to say this, you will definitely be drowned by other people's saliva. The Emperor of Song Dynasty said in person that the emperor guarded the country's gates. Could this be changed at will?
After Yelu Jia's guidance, the meticulous Yelu Zongzheng believed that the Emperor of Song Dynasty said these words in order to calm the hearts of the people.
When he still pays attention to the movements of the Song Dynasty at any time, so as not to be caught off guard when unexpected situations occur.
Tonight is different from the past. The people of the Song Dynasty outside have a very loud voice, and the discussions are often related to what Zhao Zhen said today. As an emperor, being able to say the emperor's words to guard the country reflects his great courage and responsibility, and the people all praise him.
But what kind of courage does the king die in the country allow him to speak up firmly in the court?
You should know that what an emperor said in the court is a golden word and a jade word. The words are made into a constitution and must not be changed, otherwise it will damage the emperor's majesty and prestige.
For the sake of the country and the country, the officials and families were willing to die. The responsibility and strength moved all the people of the Song Dynasty and shocked the positions of envoys from the outside. What they saw was different from what the people of the Song Dynasty saw.
These two sentences reflect the persistence and courage of the Emperor of the Song Dynasty. This is the necessary condition for becoming a generation of heroes. It does not matter whether the Emperor of the Song Dynasty moved the capital. After all, it does not matter to them where the capital of the Song Dynasty is, but the emperor's attitude is unpredictable.
The emperor's attitude also represents the attitude of the Song Dynasty. What Dangxiang people and the Liao people are most worried about is that Emperor Zhao Zhen of the Song Dynasty became a man like the hero of Emperor Wu of Han, which means that the Song Dynasty faced by the two countries will open its hideous side.
If the Song Dynasty was originally a humble gentleman, then the Song Dynasty is now an enterprising warrior!
Dangxiang was originally an inner-affiliated clan of the Central Plains dynasty. Although it was recognized by the Liao Dynasty early, it was not recognized by the Song Dynasty since its beginning. In the official written articles of the Song Dynasty, Dangxiang was still called Dingnan Army, while Dangxiang's king, Li Yuanhao, was still the King of Xiping...
The Liao Dynasty was uneasy, and they also had considerable conflicts with the Song Dynasty. From the two defeats of the Song Dynasty to the Battle of Tanyuan, although the two countries were called brotherly countries, they were mostly in competition.
What's more, the huge contradiction in Yanyun Land is in it, and the Song people never forget this enclave from beginning to end.
The Dangxiang people and the Liao people quickly collected intelligence on this noisy night, whether it was court or civilian. As long as they found it useful, they would collect it. Only by obtaining more information can they guess the true intentions of the Song Dynasty officials.
After a night of fish and dragon dance, it was a new day. The atmosphere of all parties was quite solemn, because they felt that the Song Dynasty would definitely have some other means and changes, but Zhao Zhen disappointed everyone.
Today, Zhao Zhen did not bring anything new to everyone, but handled political affairs as usual, without any unexpected actions, and it was as ordinary as a normal day.
But after the dispersion, I went to Fengqiu Military Camp in Tokyo to comfort the soldiers who came back from the military exercise.
But no one knew that Zhao Zhen’s purpose this time was not to only comfort the soldiers in the military exercise, but also had other plans. In his opinion, the military system of the Song Dynasty had been in use for too long and could not keep up with the development of the times. It should be noted that except for the local rural militia, the entire Song Dynasty army was all professional soldiers, including those who had already disbanded.
This will lead to disadvantages. Most professional soldiers have families and families, and can only serve in the military for their entire lives. It is difficult to exert their remaining energy in other places. All the combat power of the entire country is concentrated and cannot achieve the purpose of hiding soldiers and the people.
