Zhao Pu looked at everything that happened in the court viciously, and he was waiting.

Ludoson was laughing.

No one paid attention to them, and conflicts occurred on the border one after another, but the Song army had many victories.

Yizhou reported that thousands of Khitan cavalry were defeated, 300 people and 5,000 horses were killed, and then Dabaozhai in Yizhou was built as the Pingzhai Army.

The Gu army was 300 miles northwest of Sanjiaokou, Hedong. The valley was barely cut, and the enemy protected it, so it mostly invaded. Pan Mei sent his troops to attack him, and the enemy abandoned the city and fled. The army sent Anqing to surrender with his clan.

The Khitan invaded the Pingzhai Army with 7,000 people. The defenders took them away and killed many people.

These are all small-scale conflicts, and they are harmless.

He also ordered Hao Shoujun and others to branch the rivers and arrive at the enemy's territory, and all guided them. He also opened the Xu River at the Qingyuan border, and Ji entered the Baihe River fifty miles away from the river. Therefore, all the canals in the south of the Guannan can be accessible, that is, from then on, they can use ships to send food and supplies to any front line of the Sanguan, saving the cost of military use.

The fish bought by Li Chengxin, the governor of the Guide Army, had rotten, and the households were beaten to death, causing the households to be sick for several days. The family appealed and executed Li Chengxin. In order to kill a small servant, a ruling officer was killed, which was rare in the entire Chinese history.

For example, Wang Deyi, the transfer envoy from Liangzhe Northeast Road, did not marry, his subordinates failed to govern, and he cut off two posts, and recovered the 1,000 taels of platinum he had given before.

It was precisely because of these punishments that the entire Song Dynasty officialdom was running at a high speed. Although wars were repeated, the people did not complain because of proper policies. This was difficult for the later Song Renzong to achieve this.

No scholar-officials said it.

Why do you want to say, what should you do if you are on your own? It is best not to punish the literati. Then no matter what you do, you will not be severely punished. Even when you are suffering, you can refuse the order because the literati cannot insult you.

At this moment, Zhao Pu took action.

Lu Duosun was so proud that he was a little careless. He even saw something that when the Northern Song Dynasty invaded Taiyuan City, Zhao Yanmei's subordinates plundered the people. He was stopped by the cannon Cui Han. Zhao Yanmei was always depressed, and later made an advice, which led to Cui Han being severely punished.

So Lu Duosun got very close to Zhao Yanmei.

This is not about joining Zhao Yanmei, but about gaining more real power, which is similar to the relationship between Zhao Pu and Li Chongju.

But Zhao Pu thought of one thing: Zhao Dezhao is dead. Zhao Defang is dead. Who will be next?

Zhao Yanmei will take some self-protection measures.

However, he had not seen the whole situation clearly, so he kept not taking action.

He didn't do anything, and Ludoson came again.

Li Chongju was sad, Hou Renbao was sad, and Zhao Pu's son Zhao Chengzong was sad. Under Lu Duosun's operation, he got Tanzhou to become the governor.

Tanzhou is also good, an important city in Jinghu, the former capital of Hunan. However, Zhao Chengzong and Pan Mei have different natures. It was the south in the end, so it was not very adaptable. Therefore, Zhao Pu thought of a solution. It happened that Li Chongju's daughter died on the ex-wife of Zhao Chengzong, and asked him to marry Gao Huaide and the eldest princess of Yan State.

Perhaps Hou Renbao's sacrifice made Zhao Kuangyi feel soft, so he allowed it.

Zhao Chengzong returned to Beijing to get married. Zhao Pu operated and wanted to keep Zhao Chengzong. However, before he could find a relationship, Lu Duoxun began to urge Zhao Chengzong to return to office.

It would be fine if he stayed in Tanzhou. Zhao Pu was worried that under Lu Duosun's control, Zhao Chengzong would become the second Hou Renbao.

At this time, the heroes of Zhao Kuangyi's vassal residence, Yang Shouyi, Zhao Rong, Chai Yuxi, Xiang Lixun and others reported that Zhao Yanmei was arrogant and had a conspiracy. These four people were definitely not Zhao Pu's people.

They just obeyed Zhao Kuangyi's wishes, and Zhao Yanmei did want to protect herself and did some things, so they acted on the situation and reported Zhao Yanmei.

It may not be related to Zhao Pu, but Zhao Pu has been paying attention to the current situation and is waiting for an opportunity. As long as he performs a little, Zhao Kuangyi will see it.

It was easier to deal with when I saw Zhao Pu. I wanted to take Zhao Yanmei, but it was not the two yellow-haired boys Zhao Dezhao and Zhao Defang, which was more troublesome. Lu Duosun's actions also made Zhao Kuangyi feel worried, so naturally Zhao Pu entered Zhao Kuangyi's sight.

For the sake of the throne, don’t mention the past!

For the sake of power and in order not to continue to be suppressed by Lu Duosun, Zhao Pu should not mention his conscience again!

The two hit it off.

Zhao Kuangyi, Zhao Pu and Lu Duoxun are both masters of power struggle. They use any means to suppress the enemy. But compared to the higher, Lu Duoxun is too bad. Even if the attack is not focused, he loses his moral position. The attack is right. If Zhao Pu is not attacked, the centipede zombie will die. God knows whether it will die. Once Zhao Pu comes up, Lu Duoxun will be sad, but what about the methods in between?

Zhao Pu replied: "I am willing to prepare a pivot to observe the traitor."

The old minister can investigate for you, but the answer is vague because there is an outsider. Even if this outsider is an eunuch, God knows whether they will disclose it to Zhao Yanmei and Lu Duosun?

However, after retreating, Zhao Pu's face was flushed, and he endured for several years and came the opportunity. At this moment, he completely forgot about Zhao Kuangyin's kindness and respect for him.

So construction started and the Golden Chamber Alliance appeared!

Then he wrote a secret memorial saying that the minister was an old founding minister and was frustrated by the power and fortune. Then he talked about the Golden Chamber Alliance.

Why do you say now? Did it work before? There were rumors in the entire Song Dynasty, and Zhao Kuangyi cared about it? It didn’t work if he mentioned it. However, now that Zhao Kuangguang wants to attack Zhao Yanmei, he needs more righteousness. What would Zhao Kuangyi think about a Golden Chamber Alliance?

Seeing Zhao Pu's secret report, Zhao Kuangyi was so amused that he could not help him. For the sake of the throne, he had to give in and re-promote Zhao Pu as the subordinate of the Secretariat Pingzhang, who was in Zhao Yanmei's class during the morning court.

After Zhao Pu came to power, he began to retaliate fiercely. He first beat Sun Quanxing and then pulled him out to behead him. Liu Cheng didn't even have to come back to the capital to examine it carefully, and he directly rectified the Dharma in Yongzhou.

Therefore, this is a dynasty struggle without any right or wrong, with each other being more ruthless and shameless.

But the problem is not only that. In order to protect his rights, Zhao Pu began to win over scholars and gave literati more and more rights.

That is, Zhao Da and Zhao Pu completed the first step in the dismissal of Wu Chongwen in the Song Dynasty, and Zhao Er completed the second step. Zhao Pu completed the third step, and the weak time of the Song Dynasty finally arrived.

But because Zhao Pu is good to scholars, the historical books actually have an extremely noble evaluation of him, higher than Xiao He and higher than Fang Du... The Song Dynasty was almost created by Zhao Pu, so what about Chai Rong, Zhao Kuangyin? What about Chai Rong's revolutionary innovative systems? Then what did Zhao Pu do, dismiss Wu and emphasize literature?

Next, Wang Renshan took charge of national strategies and was a traitor, so he was dismissed as the General of the Right Guard; Qi and Duzhi judges, Lei Dexiang, the doctor of the Ministry of War, Xi Yu, the doctor of the Jin Dynasty, and also appointed Cao Yuanwailang; Wang Yu, the judge of the Ministry of Revenue and the minister of the Ministry of Revenue, was appointed as the general of the Right Guard;

Maybe Wang Renshan has done some bad things, but is Zhao Pu even worse?

Nothing else, Wang Renshan was Zhao Pu's political enemy, and they formed a grudge when they were in Bashu. Song Qi turned out to be Zhao Pu's man. Zhao Kuangyi summoned him in the third year of Taiping Xingguo and questioned him. Song Qi expressed his regret and reform, and he was Zhao Pu's betrayer! Not to mention Lei Dexiang.

A few months later, Wang Renshan died of illness due to dissatisfaction.

As spring comes, the sky above Tokyo is covered with clouds.

...

The spring flowers in Tokyo in the Song Dynasty were gradually blooming, but the northeast was still covered with snow.

But compared to the severe cold winter, the weather is slightly warmer.

More than 16,000 troops are gathering outside Huanglong Mansion City.

It was autumn in the first year that Song Jiu came to the Northeast. There was no time left. Therefore, what he did was to train Wu Xuanming and Yan Po's subordinates to formulate more standardized systems.

The next year, Song Jiu asked the students to teach the local people to farm and guide Wu Xuanming to expand. But the target was only the rear of the Wura tribe, and it did not go west or southwest. He also sent envoys to the Khitan to surrender. The Khitan might be alert, but for the Khitan, the depths of Liaodong, there was no doubt that it was the southwestern margin of the Song Dynasty, and it was best to be the best to be the surrender. It would be fine if you didn't launch an attack on the areas under the jurisdiction of the Song Dynasty. You will be able to do whatever you want.

In addition to the battle between Mancheng and Yanmen, the Khitan was planning a larger-scale revenge, which gave Song Jiu precious time.

Last year, under the guidance of Song Jiu, Wu and Yan no longer expanded, but integrated. At the same time, in order to prevent the Khitan from suddenly awakening, they sent envoys to offer eagles and horses to congratulate Emperor Jingzong of Liao on his victory in the south.

Therefore, the Khitan monarchs and ministers were unable to make up their minds about those small moves in the Northeast, which won another precious year.

During this year, Song Jiu guided Wu Xuanming to build nine tall cities in succession from Wura City, heading east and south, not seeking much area, but seeking height, thickness and strength. With the city, there is a trading location, strengthening communication, and with the city, there is a defense. He is not very good at siege Khitan.

It turns out that there is also a city, but it is not a city, but a village.

In other words, if the front line loses and retreats to the rear, the Khitan will not easily take down this power.

This is a long-term plan. If you don’t seek a hundred years, you can at least ensure that this force of resistance lasts for twenty or thirty years, which will greatly drag down the strength of the Khitan.

According to Song Jiu's idea, he still plans to survive for a year, after all, there are too many internal difficulties.

First of all, when farming, Song Jiu brought students and farm tools, and locals also had farming, but these people were still not interested in learning. They clearly saw the bumper harvest of the previous year, but they still lived the original life of semi-married, half-fishing, half-cultivation and half-cultivation.

Secondly, backward civilization, living habits and slavery have caused the place to be sparsely populated and backward transportation, so it is difficult to get together. Moreover, the revenge killings of various tribes are serious and they are not very united. In short, it is more difficult to unite them than climbing to the sky.

Finally, Wu Xuanming and Yan Po's abilities are poor, both political and military. Song Jiu suspected that as long as he and Gao Qiong let go, the unsolved alliance would be broken down immediately. Therefore, he has been working as a teacher for the past two years, constantly teaching them how to be the first and second leaders of this country.

The benefits are also the cold climate, poor life, and a large number of nomadic areas, which make the people here very fierce. Gao Qiong once estimated that if the same weapons, equipment, and generals were equal to other factors, if they could be integrated, this Jurchen army could be one for ten.

In addition, there are many specialties in the Northeast, which are better than Song Jiu imagined, and the prices are cheaper. A pair of armor can be exchanged for several good horses. Until the previous year, after Song Jiu's guidance, most tribes knew that through transactions, they could exchange a large number of goods they needed with the Song Dynasty, such as iron and cloth. This transaction could accelerate the binding of them and reduce the subsidies from the court.

Of course, he came to the Northeast to keep it secret. There were only a few people who knew the truth, even Lu Duoxun didn't know it. Even after Zhang Qixian left Dengzhou, Zhao Kuangyi appointed Pan Weizheng as the magistrate of Dengzhou to protect Song Jiu.

However, after last autumn, Song Jiu changed his mind when he learned about Hou Renbao.

It was too far away and the news was too backward. It was obvious that what happened in spring was that Song Jiu knew about it in autumn.

Therefore, when last winter came, Song Jiu asked Wu Xuanming's troops to divide the troops and directly targeted the tribes and Tieli tribes in the Huanglong Mansion area. There were many large tribes in this area, such as the Tieli tribe, the Dalu Gu tribe, the Tulu Bushi Wei tribe, the Nerana tribe, etc. The Wanyan tribe was only a small tribe and was very scattered.

Although some tribes were powerful, Wu Xuanming suddenly attacked and received support from the Song Dynasty's weapons. They had more troops than them. They were all taken down soon. They might be dissatisfied, but on the surface they were all convinced.

Some of these tribes are very close to the Khitan and are getting closer to the actual control of the Khitan. The Khitan finally felt uneasy. At that time, the gate was sealed with heavy snow, and it was inconvenient to dispatch large troops. The second was the Song Dynasty restrained it, and it was undecided, so it had to send envoys to come and ask questions.

According to the instructions of Song Jiu, Wu Xuanming gave countless reasons and expressed his opinion that he would send 10,000 soldiers to the Khitan command to attack the Song Dynasty.

The Khitans may not believe it, but they were confused, and their contempt for the backwardness of the birth of the Jurchens, so they became hesitant again.
