Chapter Thirty-Three

Zhao Qiong traveled westward and thought about his future development plan gradually becoming more abundant. He decided to talk in detail with his staff. These people belong to different schools of thought and different ruling ideas. There are also differences in understanding, but they all have a heart that is worried about the country and the people. They have passed the age of impulsive work, and have experienced the ups and downs of the officialdom and the ups and downs of the officialdom. They should be able to see everything. I hope they can Give up differences, unite around you, and achieve something!

"Prince, now the government is in a corruption, the treacherous and slanderous are in power, and the emperor is blinded. If you want to implement the new policy in the northwest, it may be a bit difficult!" After hearing the grand blueprint described by the prince, the judge Chen Guoting said worriedly that he had just experienced ups and downs, and he still felt in his heart. I'm still scared. (You can read the novel)

"Judge Chen's words are different. The old party did not think about reform in the government, did not dare to do things, and did not dare to move, so that problems accumulated in a large number of problems. The new policy in the northwest died halfway. Although it was restored later, the Cai family used the word "Shaoshu" to clamp the world. The words of scholars and officials were actually completely changed. They were destroyed by the hands of Cai and Tong. Now the prince wants to revive the northwest, how can he stop moving forward?" Xu Jingheng said.

"Mr. Hengtang said nothing badly. Since the use of troops to the northwest has not only increased the burden on the border areas, but also exhausted the government's finances. Tong Guan was ordered to open the border even more. He often exhausted all the routes in Shaanxi and had to ask the court to allocate funds to help. Other places were implicated. Years of war caused the people's strength to decline in the northwest border, the imperial court's government orders were blocked, the people were unwilling to farm, and all rely on the court's supply, but the war benefited some people.' The small officials of the prefectures and counties took the lead and came forward. The attendant, the poor man moved his feet and made his axe; the money was abundant, and the world was full of land. The local military and political affairs were very bad, so we must not change it!" Yang Shi nodded and said, the turbulent environment in the northwest, coupled with the huge military expenditure and **'s military and political affairs make the government unable to manage the northwest border anymore. If you want to do something, you can only rely on yourself.

"Mr. Guishan said it well. (Let's read the novel) The people's livelihood is now difficult in the northwest. The war has caused nine out of ten households. After the civil war in the southeast, a large number of refugees flocked to the northwest. The court expanded the fields in the northwest and auctioned salt ponds and fertile fields, resulting in the fact that the government had not yet reached the northwest. The new land of the British tribe was unstable and reborn under the pacification of the Western Xia. Most of the Western Army was transferred to the south, but the imperial guards were unable to suppress them. The Hedong Army was exhausted and suppressed everywhere. If the people were not stabilized quickly, the British tribes would be pacified, the northwest. It is the place of four battles. The chaos will lead to a disaster, and it may even worse than the southeast!" Zhou Xingji said, and he was also pessimistic about the situation.

"Everyone is right. This is why I am unwilling to take office. However, the emperor's order is hard to violate, so I can only hold my nose and take office, but it is like a needle and needle!" Zhao Qi looked at the old men and said with a sigh.

"Your Majesty is too humble. You have only been in charge of Hedong for two years and have recovered Feng, Xia, Ling and other states, expanded the land thousands of miles, and established unparalleled martial arts. You have also rectified the local area and eliminated corruption. You can clear Hedong and restore the people's strength. , He has always had prestige among the Han and Fan people, and now only the prince can save the people from the fire and water. We are willing to do our best to assist the prince!" Seeing that Zhao Jie was in a state of retreatment, Xu Jingheng hurriedly encouraged him.

"I am willing to assist the prince in establishing achievements!" Several other people also quickly expressed their opinions. They all knew that Prince Yan was unparalleled and righteous. Now everyone can say that they are all in trouble. It is not easy to have such a good boss. I still hope that he can still use his best boss. The achievements of building a fan with him are famous for being in history. If you run halfway, wouldn’t it be a waste of money?

"Oh, it's all accidental that I can defeat Xixia. Local affairs are all due to the help of my master and my father, how dare I be greedy for me? Now my generals under my king go their separate ways, and my master also abandons me. Now the northwest is the northwest

The place is Liang, and Wang and his two disciples are old officials. They will definitely be too big to lose their heads. If they don’t obey the orders, they will be afraid that they will return home in vain. I regret it when I leave the capital. It’s better to stay in the capital!" Zhao Qi still showed his stern "I am afraid of difficulties."

'The look of saying.【】

"Prince, don't pretend to be like this anymore. These are excuses. Since Emperor Taizong of Xixia rebelled against Song Dynasty and had a hundred years of war, he had never had such a great victory. He forced the King of Xia to cede land and bow down. If the prince said that he was a victory, he would be afraid that he would win occasionally.

No one can believe it; the prince is in the battles and is fighting outside, and Doctor He is in charge of government affairs in Hedong. This is not false, but who would believe that without the prince’s support, how can a minister mobilize the local government, recommend capable officials, and benefit the people.

Scheme? Although we have no doctor, we have the intention to serve the country. Even if we can enter the curtain of the prince, we must also be able to enter the prince's eyes. Mr. Hengtang and Mr. Gong Shu are known as "Mr. Ninth Master of the Yuanfeng Imperial Academy",

Mr. Shan studied under the two masters of "Two Cheng", both of whom were talented. Judge Chen was also a strong minister and he would not hesitate to ask for his orders for the people. Although he is a commoner, he is also proud. Since the prince will not abandon him, he will take us in.

Everyone wants to follow the prince to do something beneficial to the people. The prince should not think that he is a snake with us, go around in circles, just say something clearly!" The 'young man' sitting on the side couldn't listen to Zhao Qi's words

He got up and scolded him.

"Shaoyang, don't be rude to the prince!" Xu Jingheng glared at the 'young man' and signaled him to sit down and said, "Prince, Shaoyang is used to being free and easy, don't be offended!" He quickly persuaded the prince.

"Haha, I am not that scrupulous!" Zhao Qi waved his hand and smiled, "Shaoyang is right. It's because I'm pretentious, but I can be said to be a first-time acquaintance, so I can't help but have doubts. It seems that I'm too careful!

"Zhao Qi stood up and saluted the 'young man'.

After talking for a long time, this young man named Shaoyang was actually more than ten years older than Zhao Qi. Everyone would feel unfamiliar with his words, but almost everyone knows his name. He was Chen Dong, the leader of the student movement in the late Northern Song Dynasty.

He was born in a family of teachers. He had a reputation for a long time. He was free and easy, unwilling tolerate himself, not worried about his poverty and lowliness, and dared to criticize the ill-injured government of the court. In the current words, he was an "angry young man". Cai Jing and Wang Fu were in charge at that time.

The autocratic people dared not speak out, but he had no hidden dangers, so that everyone did not dare to sit at the same table with him after dinner, for fear of being implicated by him.

However, Zhao Qi knew that Chen Dong's fate was also very miserable. He led students from the Imperial Academy to write letters twice, demanding to eliminate the "Six Thieves" and support Li Gang and other main fighters to come to power. Later, it developed into a violent petition and was liquidated, but Zhao Huan

Finally, he didn't take his life. However, after Zhao Gou came to power in the Jingkang Incident, he fled to Jiangnan. Chen Dong wrote a letter to fight against the Jin Dynasty again, but was killed by Zhao Gou!

This time, Zhao Qiong pacified the northwest. Chen Dong admired his name. When he saw the prince recruiting his staff, he joined in a commoner. Unexpectedly, Zhao Qiong looked up to him more and agreed happily, but he had no official name, so he could only be an official in the curtain.

As a secretary, he didn't expect that he would dare to denounce his hypocrisy in person today, but Zhao Qi also allowed him to see the bones of this man. Although his thoughts were exposed, he didn't care. He just felt that this man still needs training.

Otherwise, it would be difficult to take responsibility for his temper. If he left himself, an "enlightened person", he would still be unable to escape the tragic death if he didn't do it well!

"Prince, since you have planned it, please let me know, so that we can save ourselves from guessing!" Yang Shi and the others have experienced ups and downs in the officialdom, so of course they can understand what the prince thinks. They said with a smile, but in fact they also have it in their hearts.

I was worried that the prince would not be able to stabilize the overall situation.

"Okay, since that's the case, I will say what I want, please refer to it!" Zhao Qiong said, "The situation in the northwest is to stabilize the hearts of the people and stabilize the hearts of the people. It is necessary to ensure that they have no worries about food and clothing and can have food and clothing; secondly, they can have food and clothing;

, the northwest is the place of four battles. Although Xixia surrenders, you also know that its rebellion and submission are impermanent, and once there is an opportunity, they will be ready to move. The Liao Kingdom in the north and our Song Dynasty are old enemies, and now the court decides the Jin Dynasty to attack.

Liao's strategy is that the two countries must have a war. As the saying goes, "The centipede insect dies but does not become stiff." Although it declines, it is still a golden land. However, even if the Liao Kingdom is destroyed by me, it will drive the wolf from the front door and enter the tiger from the back door.

The barbaric people of the Jin Kingdom must covet the world of the Song Dynasty. The conflict between the two countries is inevitable. This is more difficult than the Liao Kingdom. Hedong is the only way to go south. We are the first to be affected, so we must also be in military affairs.

Be prepared and shock them so that they dare not act rashly invade the south!"

"The prince's analysis is more incisive than what his subordinates think. It seems that the prince has prepared for the northwest to pacify the northwest!" Yang Shi praised, "Then please tell me what to do next?"

"Mr. Guishan praised it. What I said was actually just the late emperor's meaning of "rich the country and strengthen the army". How to do it requires everyone to give advice!" Zhao Qiong was humble, "When I arrive in the northwest, I need to restor myself first.

, Only when people have farming and have a place to settle down can they be at ease. Reclamation should be the first choice, which can accommodate refugees and accumulate troops for the people!”

"What the prince said is very true. Military farming is imperative. Land is the foundation of border defense and stability. This problem must be solved in order to develop production and calm the hearts of the people!" Xu Jingheng nodded.

"Well, while reclaiming fields, guiding canals, and building forts, the surrounding areas will also be reclaimed for farming by the villagers. If there is a water source that can be used, try to develop and irrigate the fields; and clean the land.

In the chaos, it is prohibited to buy and rob the land of the British tribe, stabilize the foreign tribes and make them return to their hearts!" Yang Shi also added.

"Yes, while developing military and civilian camps, we must also strengthen the system of archers, so that they can be loyal to the country to guard the border and resist foreign invasions!" Zhao Qi said that he had considered this issue as early as the Western Expedition. The Song Dynasty's dynasty

Shortly after the founding of the country, the problem of land annexation became prominent. This trend could not have impacted the northwest region, resulting in the loss of land in the foreign countries and the destruction of the system. The success of the archer system lies in meeting the land needs of the applicants, so that

He has basic guarantees in his life, and the existence of large areas of wasteland along the border is the premise for the government to grant land. In the case of land rights changing in the Song Dynasty and land annexation becoming increasingly severe, archers could get a considerable number of them, free of charge.

Although the land that pays rent and taxes for farming is already a relatively generous condition, the archers cannot help but do their best to defend themselves.
