Chapter five hundred and ninety seventh unpredictable national treasury(1/2)
Zhao Huan's complaints made Nan Yu chuckle. This official family is really interesting.
Isn’t the dream at noon a daydream?
Chen Dong looked at the official's appearance and knew that this matter would never be done.
During the Liao Kingdom, the Khitans had the ability to negotiate conditions with the Song Dynasty.
Now Yelu Dashi, with 100,000 strong spirits, ran out of their ancestral land, showing off his power in the Western Regions, and still want to negotiate terms with the Song Dynasty?
"The official family, Yelu Dashi called himself Juerkhan, conquered cities and land in the Western Regions. The Black Khanate in the West and Gaochang in the East were both shivering under his tyranny. Although his elite soldiers and powerful generals made the countries in the Western Regions dare not act without any move, the yellow-headed Uighurs avoided their edge."
"But this also formed a shackle on him. If he moved his troops easily, he would move his whole body. He would also throw himself into a rat and dare not attack Qinghe City at will."
"I have communicated with Gaochang, the Yellow-headed Uighurs and the Black Khanate in the Western Regions, but have stabilized the situation."
Zhao Huan nodded. Chen Dong was in Qinghe City, which was very dangerous, but it also represented an opportunity. His diplomatic strategy was indeed well implemented.
Chen Dong did this to attack the plan by joining troops and attacking the enemy, and he gained a foothold in the complex area of the Western Regions.
"But the official family has no gold mines anymore. After digging in the Han Dynasty and the Tang Dynasty, they have already dug it completely." Chen Dong said with a smile.
His words made Zhao Huan laugh, and the Wende Hall was filled with a joyful atmosphere.
The original theory of Jinshan was indeed a record of the Han Dynasty. The Han people rushed gold there, and the gold rush promoted the exhibition there, but the gold mines had long been mined.
"The 4,000 strong cavalry in Qinghe City will be handed over to the west by the ancient Tianshan Road." Zhao Huan issued an order to Chen Dong.
Restarting the Silk Road without a pre-emptive mission is simply a nonsense.
"Ling Tangzuo, what about you? Are you going to return to Bianjing to become an official, or go with Chen Dong?" Zhao Huan looked at Ling Tangzuo and asked.
Ling Tangzuo's trip to Kelie's tribe was not in vain. According to his merits, he would win three consecutive victories and go directly to the position of the seventh rank, and obtain an official from the Privy Council's order.
The rest is to move every three years.
Ling Tangzuo smiled on his face. What's the point of returning to Bianjing to be an official? He was intrigue every day. It was not that he was not good at it, but that he was just bored.
"I would like to follow Mr. Chen to the Great Qin." Ling Tangzuo said with a look.
Going to a mission to a country is always a good opportunity to make contributions. The greater the risk, the greater the profit.
"Okay!" Zhao Huan said excitedly.
He likes such officials from the Song Dynasty. Those civil officials who soaked in vinegar can only know how to be sour all day long, and he doesn't like them.
"I will go with Mr. Ling." Nan Yu said hurriedly.
Zhao Huan glanced at Nan Yu and Ling Tangzuo meaningfully.
"Official family." Chen Dongfeng said: "I often travel to Zhenzhou and Qinghe City. There is a phenomenon that the Khitans hated Yelu Dashi and others to the core."
"Oh?" Zhao Huan frowned slightly, but soon he realized why this was the case.
During the Battle of Liao, Yelu Yanxi was captured alive by Wanyan Loushi and sent to Huanglong Mansion, Yelu Dashi cleverly escaped, ran back to Zhenzhou on Shangjing Road, and proclaimed himself Juerhan.
When he was proclaiming himself Juerkhan, he didn't tell the Khitans that he was going west.
The slogan he originally put forward was "Save the king and father, help the people, and make peace in the world."
But after shouting this slogan and getting the precise drawings given to him by the Emperor of the Song Dynasty, he chose to "raise troops and wait for the times to move."
This wait was the failure of the battle with Krei tribe.
In a panic, Yelu Dashi and his elite troops fled Zhenzhou, crossed Qinghe City, walked on the ancient Tianshan Road, and ran to Suiye City.
This is what Yelu Dashi told the Khitans.
It would be strange if the Khitans didn't hate him.
He took all the elites away, leaving only the elderly, weak, sick and disabled suffering on Shangjing Road. Even grazing could not defeat the wolves, let alone people?
"Did the Khitans resent that he gave up his ancestral land and fled with elite troops?" Zhao Huan asked Chen Dong.
Chen Dong smiled and said, "Not only that, Yelu Dashi organized eastern expeditions many times in order to calm the homesickness of his men."
"But he always waited until the frost falls, and before he could walk out of the ancient Tianshan Road, he was blocked by heavy snow. He had already done this three times. The entire Western Regions people regarded his Eastern Expedition as a joke."
"After this three or five times, the Khitans who were determined to return home had fled back to Zhenzhou. About 10,000 or 20,000 people were collected by Zhao Xianggong. They brought their own dry food. From spring to autumn, they were the main force to defend Qinghe City."
Zhao Huan then realized that it was not as simple as verbalizing to attack the enemy.
If Zhao Huan had nearly 50,000 soldiers in the prefecture and nearly 30,000 soldiers in Jingbiancheng, how could the Kelie tribe be inclined toward the Song Dynasty?
By the same token, if Qinghe City is only guarded by four thousand powerful cavalry of the Song Dynasty, Chen Dong could say that it would be dangerous.
Still have soldiers in hand and speaks tough.
Chen Dong looked at the official family and understood what he meant and continued, "I asked Niu Gao to accompany him as a military general, and even the four thousand soldiers and Ma Chen would not be able to command it. Therefore, the defense of Qinghe City became a problem."
"Niu Gao recommended his fellow villager Dong Xian."
"Dong Xian?" Zhao Huan was stunned. He had a little impression of this name. This should be a character in Yue Fei's Hejian Army.
Historical events remind: Dong Xian was a general under Yue Fei, who was a good friend of Niu Gao and from Luoyang. He first joined the army in Zhaixing's army and fought with the Jin people, and had many courage and achievements. He also fought with Wang Gui, another general under Yue Fei, and fought in Lushi County, Tangzhou and Caizhou together, and all won great victory.
He had courage and strength. Every time he fought, he was the first to be the army. He was the vanguard of the three armies on the battlefield. He became the commander of the commander and was one step away from the governor.
Zhao Huan looked at Dong Xian’s information and found out that he remembered correctly. He was indeed Yue Fei’s subordinate.
Dong Xian had a good relationship with Qin Hui, and Qin Hui admired his talent very much. In the tenth year of Shaoxing and after the Battle of Yingchang, Qin Hui met him many times, often boasting about his bravery and implying that Dong Xian was under Yue Fei's command.
Dong Xian was greedy for money and lust, and was captured by Qin Hui and corrupted. Zhao Gou, who had always been unable to control the military generals and ministers, repeatedly issued an order to rebuke him.
Yue Fei once punished him three times because of his lifestyle problems, but Dong Xian still kept silent.
In the 11th year of Shaoxing, Yue Fei was framed. After being arrested in Dali Temple, Dong Xian and Wang Jun stood on Qin Hui's side, demonstrating that Yue Fei was indeed unjust.
After reading this passage, Zhao Huan was about to order Dong to go first, and stopped his words in time.
No one can be perfect, no one can have weaknesses.
However, Dong Xian's weakness is very easy to use. Hu Ji's beauty has been around since the Han Dynasty. Dong Xian is really placed in such a confidential position.
Yelu Dashi gives away a bunch of beauties, and Dong Xian will fall.
Zhao Huan also remembered why he had an impression of this name because he forced a Khitan woman and was punished by Yue Fei.
The army is a place where military orders fall like mountains. What we need is obedience. Yue Fei strictly ordered not to harass the people. Dong Xian did this, and it would be strange if he did not get punished.
"Let Wang Gui lead five thousand cavalry from Dongshengwei to defend Qinghe City." Zhao Huan decided to change his own person.
This person was Yue Fei's sworn brother when he was in Tangyin. Before Yue Fei joined the army, he was a martial arts doctor and a defense envoy in Changzhou.
This person is also a normal historical line of history, and he is also a military general in the Yue family army, brave and resourceful, and has always been giving advice for Yue Fei. He is a figure like Yue Fei's right-hand man.
He had studied this person a long time ago and was indeed a good general.
It is much more reliable than this Niu Gao’s friend, Dong Xian.
The case of Niu Gao being beaten by Yue Fei for drinking and being beaten twenty times by him was still under Zhao Huan's hands. When Yue Fei suggested sending him to Qinghe City with Chen Dong, he had the idea of letting him reform.
Chen Dong said this. Since there was someone who had already chosen the government, he naturally would not say much.
"Tonight, we will set up a banquet in Shangshen Building to welcome you." Zhao Huan said to the people.
The person who hosted the reception was Yuwen Xuzhong. Zhao Huan attended this banquet, which could only make them restrained. It would be better to send a minister to host it.
Zhao Huan was still watching Zhazi late at night, and the military marriage law has become an extraterritorial marriage law.
The envoys who were on missions, the craftsmen who were mining in Japan, Goryeo, and the border troops who were not in the local area were all objects of protection for extraterritorial marriage laws.
I worked hard for the Song Dynasty outside, but there was no guarantee in the backyard, which was not suitable.
Moreover, this decree took not long to determine the legislation to determine the provisions. After three consultations, it finally came to Zhao Huan.
Zhao Huan approved the Ministry of Justice to follow up more and prepare to add clauses at any time.
"Is it flooding?" Zhao Huan looked at the letter from the Imperial Heaven Supervision and unexpectedly saw Zong Ze's name on the letter.
Zong Ze, a minister at the strategic nuclear weapon level, is the Song Dynasty's card wherever he is placed.
Zhao Huan asked Zong Ze to serve as the strategic commander of Jinghu North Road and Jinghu South Road to arrange the affairs of the two roads very well.
Last summer, floods in Jiangnan also caused heavy losses to the people.
Zhao Huan thought about this letter carefully before he understood it.
Just two words, money!
It costs money to clear the river and hire civil servants.
It costs money to clean up the silt and reclaim wasteland.
It costs money to build river embankments and water conservancy.
Zhao Huan approved this letter very brightly.
Li Gang had already met with the Ministry of Revenue in Bianjing, and the Ministry of Revenue still had some idle money to support Jinghu and other routes.
Zhao Huan would naturally approve the matter of money being used to benefit the country and the people, and even set aside one million silver dollars from the treasury to support it.
Zhao Huan looked at the letter in his hand and almost laughed out loud.
The attributes of national treasury are a bit uncertain.
