The number one scholar of the Song Dynasty

The First Champion Chapter 436

Originally thought that only Yelu Yanxi's grandson would secretly negotiate peace with Jin Guo, but I didn't expect Yelu Dashi, a guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes, to do such dirty things, which made Young Master Yang very angry.

As a result, it is very difficult to get back the remaining six states of the sixteen Youyun states in a short period of time.It's not a good thing to push this bastard into a hurry and fall to Jin Guo completely.After all, on the territory of Jin Kingdom, the Khitan people keep making troubles, which is one of their troubles.If the small court in Yunzhou surrendered, most of these troubles would be eliminated.

Between Song and Jin, there was already an irreconcilable hatred. Yang Lin turned his back on his words and attacked the Jurchen soldiers and horses who had withdrawn from the west within less than ten days of the alliance, almost killing all of Wanyan Zonghan's men.The Jurchen Eastern Route soldiers failed to go south, but their entire army was almost wiped out. If it weren't for Yin Keshu's death to stop the pursuers, Wanyan Zonghan and Lou Shi would most likely perish in Youyan.

Later, he chased to Zhulu Mountain, killed Wanyan Wu and begged for it at the place where Chiyou fell, and asked Wanmin to bury Wanyan Xiyin alive with stones in Bianliang. The local losses add up to several times more, it is impossible for this Jurchen not to report.

For the Song Dynasty, the Jurchens were a thorn in their hearts. They killed them from Hebei to Kaifeng Mansion, killing many bones along the way, and blood flowed like rivers.

How can we not avenge this revenge.

At the beginning, our soldiers and horses were weak, and the officials were unwilling to go to war in order to suppress the generals, and they even did not want to see the generals win the battle.The Khitans often went south, Xixia was eyeing them, and Hebei was always the territory of the Khitans.

At that time, the ninja was fine, but now the soldiers are strong and the horses are strong, the territory is expanded, the momentum is like a rainbow, the horses are like clouds, the elite soldiers are like rain, the supplies are abundant, and the generals are coming out in large numbers.

Not to mention that the Jurchens will go south, even if they don't plan to go south, the hundreds of thousands of Han soldiers will inevitably step out of the Great Wall and try the powerful northern enemies of the generation after the Huns, Turks, and Khitans. How strong is it.

Chapter 5 Sea Transport Lines

In Mingtang, Zaifu is on top, and there are six ministers in one hall.

"Han Shizhong from Tanzhou just sent someone to say that the Jurchens outside the Great Wall have already begun to transport and stockpile grain and grass in a premeditated manner. It seems that they have suffered enough last time. They know that once the walls are cleared, they will not even be able to find a grain of rice to eat in Youyan. "Yang Lin sighed, and continued to scold: "I don't understand, the small court of Khitan Yunzhou, there is such a sweet pastry, but the Jurchen Tartars just don't fight, crying every day to come to Youyan and us Desperate, why is this?"

Zhang Shangying said with a smile: "As long as the alien race in the north rises, all they think about is going south to plunder. This point has been made very clear in countless historical volumes. In the summer of the three volts, even animals know to go to the shade of the tree to enjoy the shade. In the middle of winter, insects and ants also know to go underground to escape the cold. The barren land in the north is always bitterly cold, so how can the Jurchens not think about going south."

The battle between Song and Jin was inevitable, and almost everyone present knew this.

Wanyan Aguda raised his army ahead of time, which made him not too old, and still had the ambition and strength of the Southern Expedition.Coupled with the fact that Wanyan Wu Qimai died in Youyan, no matter how he looked at it, it was impossible for him to bear it.

Yang Lin stood up and walked to the map on the wall. All the officials stared at the map together.

"This is the land of Youyan, where there are constant wars and disasters all year round. Now it has been calmed down for a year, and the fields have been abandoned and have not been reclaimed. We must prepare for the war and prepare supplies in advance. Once the war begins, hundreds of thousands of troops will spend money on food and drink. , Armor and blades, relying on temporary transportation, it is difficult to supply."

The former Song Dynasty did not have this trouble, because they often forgot to supply the front lines when they fought, and the officials and lords in the court were not in a hurry. Anyway, in their opinion, it is better for warriors to lose than win. If you lose, you can continue to suppress the warriors and realize the great situation of the dynasty's emphasizing culture and suppressing martial arts.

During the Shenzong period, the Song army attacked under the capital of Xixia. Because of lack of food, tens of thousands of people starved to death and were beaten back.

In the Song Dynasty, which is known as the rich and powerful, soldiers often fought hungry, especially the Western Army, which was not loved by grandma and uncle, was the worst of the tragedy.

If it wasn't clearly recorded in the history books, no one in later generations would have imagined that the only field army capable of fighting in a wealthy dynasty had not received a single grain for three full years when confronting a powerful enemy.

Now that Yang Lin is in power, he will naturally not let such things continue to happen. He pointed to Tianjin Port and said, "This is our newly built city, named Tianjin Wei, and it is a good port. It cannot be put into use, and the roads in Hebei are blocked, so we can only go by sea.”

Everyone in the Ming Hall began to whisper timidly, it is inevitable to need naval escort when traveling by sea, so in the vast sea, it is very likely that there will be a powerful navy of Song Dynasty.

Can these people control it?

Yang Lin has been in the court for a long time, and he can tell what these people are thinking at a glance. They must be worried that the warriors will be difficult to control.

It has to be said that during the Five Dynasties, warriors were suppressed too harshly and too rampantly, which caused these scholars to be more wary of warriors than aliens.They were afraid that if they were not careful, the world might be in chaos. In fact, they were completely overwhelmed.

Now that the generals want to separate their regimes, they have no bases of their own. There are only a group of soldiers who don't necessarily listen to them.You can't pay these soldiers, who will work for you and rebel against you.

Da Song's defense against generals was too much, which directly led to being beaten everywhere.

But Zhang Shangying suddenly remembered that a few days ago, Yang Lin approached him to discuss the establishment of the South China Sea Navy.

Now it is an excuse to transport food by sea from Jiangnan to Tianjin Wei. It seems that this navy is bound to be formed, and a look of worry appears on Zhang Shangying's forehead. "Wen Yuan, transporting food by sea will inevitably require navy guards. Do you think Chenghai Navy can do it?"

Yang Lin thought to himself, you have asked, I have been waiting for this sentence for a long time.He twisted his wrist lightly, and said: "It's definitely not enough. The Chenghai Navy must guard against the Jurchens going south. You must know that the Jurchen Tartars have merged tens of thousands of people in Bohai. Bohai people have always been good at building ships. Chenghai Navy is responsible for the East China Sea. .As for other routes, I plan to invite officials to add a new navy."

The ministers are watching their noses and noses and their hearts. Now that you have big fists, you have the final say.Only Wang Chaoli agreed, stood up and said, "If you want to form a navy, you can recruit troops from Lingnan. The land there is barren, and many residents along the coast are good at fishing and hunting. These people are familiar with water, and training them will do more with less."

Yang Lin nodded. The land along the coast of Fujian is really barren and pitiful.In these places, even if the weather is good, they can't harvest much crops, let alone a disaster or harm.The good thing is that in these places near the sea, accidents will happen every now and then, either by tsunamis or earth dragons turning over, and this situation has been increasing in the Song Dynasty.

Song Dynasty caught up with a bad time, and the Yellow River also began to deteriorate at this time, and various geological disasters occurred frequently.In terms of bad luck, it was second only to Daming who had caught up with Little Binghe.

Since farming could not support the whole family, the people along the coast had to try their best to find another way out.

Yang Lin made a final decision: "That's it. Let's write a letter together and invite the officials."

Everyone slandered one after another, so it's decided, isn't this just discussing that you are going to make a decision.

Say what you say, and slander what you say, but no one dares to jump out and object.

The navy at sea is too difficult to control, even more difficult to manage than the warriors on land. Zhang Shangying still wants to make a final effort, saying: "Wen Yuan, should we wait until the Jiaozhi incident is over before forming a navy. Now the situation in the north is about to explode. There are still 10,000+ soldiers and horses fighting, and once the Song and Jin Dynasties start fighting, it will be a war between the north and the south, and the supplies will be dwarfed by then."

"What's so difficult about fighting on both sides? When I was presiding over the battle in Youyan, the Northwest was called the Communist Emperor's wife. Xi⌒〉Mu Hui's drought and ruins, let's stop the badger, pomelo, wu, Yuanhuang, Lvnoon, Yiqiang haze knocks on a certain steel dog!�

In fact, Jiaozhi didn't involve many soldiers and horses in Song Dynasty. It was completely free to pay for their rebellious army and began to fight each other.

Fang Qifo is like a stringer in a shadow puppet show, directing countless Beijiaozhi people to fight southward like crazy.

The North has always been discriminated against by the Cochin Li Dynasty. In addition, the Champa pirates are lawless here, and the people who pay taxes every year can't get any protection from the Li Dynasty. They have long held back their energy to rebel.

Seeing that Zhang Shangying couldn't persuade him, she suddenly felt uncomfortable and felt a sense of retreat.

I'm getting old Zhang Shangying thought to herself.

Chapter 5 Fifteen

In the second year of Xuanhe, early summer.

The first assistant prime minister You Pu shot Zhang Shangying and his servant Zhang Shangying, who returned to his hometown due to illness. The emperor ordered three times to persuade him to stay, and Zhang Xiang was determined to leave.

On the outskirts of Bianliang city, horses and horses are running parallel to each other, young hedgehogs in green clothes and hats gather everywhere, and all of them in the roadside pavilions are wearing purple and gold official uniforms, just like a grand court meeting.

Yang Lin held the cup and said: "I sent Xiang Cai back to my hometown before. It seems like yesterday. I never thought that I would send Xiang Zhang away from Beijing today. Xiang Zhang and I have supported each other so far, and today they are successful. , Enjoy the family.”

Zhang Shangying was full of smiles, he was not Cai Jing, he had been the prime minister for nearly three years, and he was the left prime minister when Cai Jing was the chief assistant.Nowadays, talented people come out from generation to generation, and if they rely on their positions, they are afraid that they will be stabbed in the back.

"This official is old, but the official affairs of the court should not be neglected. All the princes are in the hands of the ministries, and the power is in charge of the key points. The people of the country live in peace, and Yao, Tian and Shun will still rely on you. You must not be ignored."

Everyone at the scene humbled themselves, Yang Lin took advantage of the situation and waved his hand, and Yang San who followed him came over with a scroll.

"Today, Zhang Xiang retired after his accomplishments, just a picture scroll, to express his heart, and hope to accept it."

Zhang Shangying unfolded the scroll, and couldn't help saying in surprise: "This is Wang Ximeng's picture of thousands of miles of rivers and mountains? Yuan, this ceremony is too heavy."

He said that the ceremony was too heavy, but he held it tightly in his hand. This painting is the only painting handed down from generation to generation in Wang Ximeng's life.

Wang Ximeng's life can be regarded as a legend. He entered the palace "painting" as a student in his teens.

The emperor Zhao Ji had a unique vision and thought: "Its nature can be taught", so he personally taught the method, and after Zhao Ji personally taught the brush and ink techniques, the art improved, and the painting surpassed the standard; in April of the third year of Zhenghe, Wang Ximeng spent half a year finally It was only a young age to paint a masterpiece of a thousand miles of rivers and mountains that has become famous through the ages.

Since then, I haven't written any more, and no half-painted scrolls have been published.A few years ago, there was news that Wang Ximeng died young, and passed away in his 20s, which has to be said to be a pity.

This painting is finely painted with brushes, vivid and vivid, brilliant and gorgeous, and the beauty of thousands of miles of rivers and mountains is magnificent and magnificent.
