The First Champion Chapter 429
"Let me ask you, what is Your Majesty doing!"
"I said, I said, put me down first!"
Yelu Dashi gave him a wink, and the lieutenant put him down. After such a meal, the general became more honest, and said with a forced smile: "The envoy of the Song Dynasty came from Bianliang and asked us to produce a hundred virgins from Khitan. Entering the palace, His Majesty is personally selecting."
Yelu Dashi's face was livid, and a burst of grief and indignation rushed into the sky. What's the purpose of restoring the country to such a humiliated court?
Khitan has crushed the Central Plains dynasties since the founding of the country, and almost every dynasty in the Five Dynasties bowed to Khitan.
Even the Song Dynasty was suppressed several times, and the city of Bianliang in Tokyo was killed two or three times.
Up to now, someone from the Song Dynasty actually ordered to come to Khitan to ask for the matter of the maid, which reversed the status of the two parties.
Yelu Dashi closed his eyes, breathed out a foul breath, and said silently, "Just wait another day."
At this time, no matter how bad they are, there is nothing they can do.
Relying on Yang Lin's aid to survive, playing a game of cat and mouse with the Jurchens on the cold grassland is already at the end of their strength.
If the cat can't catch the mouse, it can continue to catch the mouse. Once the mouse is a little careless, its life will be gone.
After landing, the general looked around and said with a cheap smile: "It's okay, can the villain go?"
"get out!"
After the general crawled away, Yelu Dashi's deputy general said in a deep voice: "General, forget it, how can the court help you and me, why not retreat west, and let them confront the Jurchens by themselves."
"If we retreat westward, when will the Khitan people return to their hometown?" Yelu Dashi shook his head and said, with an undisguised sense of loneliness in his voice.
"Is it possible that such a court can restore the country?"
Although Yelu Dashi was more angry than anyone else, he still had no choice but to appease his confidants. If they didn't agree with him, they would really have nothing.
"It is precisely because the court is like this that we are even less qualified to back down"
Even in such a situation, Yelu Dashi's shoulders were not loose at all.
Goryeo has always been the death gate of the Central Plains Dynasty. No one can move it. It must be my vassal state.
Emperor Sui Yang, the hero of a generation, wanted to conquer Goguryeo even after his death, and he lost his country because of this; the Tang Dynasty directly broke through the capital and supported the puppet regime; The Qing Dynasty, like that joke, gave up everything that should be given up and should not be given up. When Japan attacked North Korea, it still had to send troops to fight to the death.
After the founding of the later generations, a lot of waste is waiting to be done, the wounds of the war have not yet healed, and when the whole land of China is still licking the wounds, someone moved this inverse scale, and they still rolled up their sleeves to fight with him, even if the opponent was invincible at the time A big country must ensure that this place is China's little brother.
Once North Korea is no longer in control, it is equivalent to opening a door in Youyan.Only the Great Song Dynasty is special, because the Great Song Dynasty has never bordered on Koryo until Yang Lin took back Youyan.Before that, between the Song Dynasty and Goryeo, there was still a Nanjing Mansion of the Great Liao Dynasty.
Since this place is so important, there is actually a reason why it was not merged into the country.
The regime in this place, for thousands of years, has always been particularly good at being a grandson because of the issue of nationality.
The Han Dynasty in the Central Plains basically followed the idea of "Is it the king's land under the whole world, and the king's subject on the coast of the land", that is, the world is mine, as long as you surrender, it is mine.And North Korea, starting from Wiman Joseon, proclaimed its ministers and paid tribute as soon as it became independent, and has been pretending to be a grandson ever since.As long as the Central Plains are unified, or a slightly larger regime is established.No matter who ruled the Korean peninsula, he immediately came to pay tribute and express his surrender to the emperor.
Furthermore, this place is severely cold all year round, and it is not suitable for the development of farming areas. Therefore, few kings want to include the desolate Korean peninsula into the country.If you manage it yourself, once the locals rebel, the Central Plains will transport materials through Liaodong, and the cost of long-term garrison will be very high.As a vassal state, the Korean peninsula is very honest and pays tribute every year, so this mechanism is relatively more beneficial.Therefore, the Central Plains Dynasty has never had the idea to occupy this barren land.
Now that the Great Song Dynasty is in full swing, in just a few years, Xixia, Dali, and Tubo were destroyed, and Youyan’s homeland was taken back, and Jurchen, the old enemy of Goryeo, was defeated. This is simply a precursor to a strong rise.
Before the envoys of the Song Dynasty arrived in Korea, they had already sent people ahead of time, bringing treasures, ginseng and court ladies.
The envoys who went to proclaim the decree met the Korean mission on the way. After a little light, there were 300 palace ladies, far exceeding the standard, so they happily followed them back.
The Song envoy who went to the Kingdom of Jin to proclaim the decree was the most unlucky one. He was worried every day on the road that he would be beaten and driven out of the country.Even worse, life-threatening.
Who knew that when they arrived at the Huining Mansion, they would receive a grand reception from the Jin Dynasty, and they would tell them righteously that Da Jin and Da Song were equals, and they also presented the evidence very seriously.
At the beginning, Daliao canonized Dajin as the Great Sage Brother Emperor, and he was on an equal footing with the Liao Emperor, and Song and Liao were equal.
Before leaving, the Jinren accepted the gift from the Song Dynasty and prepared some gifts in return.
These people happily returned to Bianliang, as if they had escaped from death, and they saw Yang Lin and told what they had seen and heard.
Yang Lin was silent for a long time.In the bright hall, the officials laughed to their heart's content, mocking this barbarian tribe for treating themselves as an equal big country.
The officials tried their best to ridicule and laugh heartily, but Yang Lin felt a little heavy.
The Jurchens are moving from a tribe to a country. This is by no means a good thing for Song Dynasty. The fighting power and war mobilization ability of a loose tribal alliance cannot be compared with that of a country.You are laughing at his ridiculous start here, but you don't know how quickly their strength has developed.
After a big battle, you can count your fingers and know that it is coming soon. Our opponent is a little stronger. Where is Da Song?
Chapter 5 and Seven are Absurd
On the streets of Bianliang, there are some special people, all of them are maids and servants who came out of the Imperial Palace.
The family members who came to welcome them also drove a carriage, and the monthly income in the confinement was not low, and they often raised a large family outside the palace.
These palace people wiped away their tears, first looked at the imperial city, then at the towering Jade Tower in the distance, and left feeling lonely.
Correspondingly, there are batches of new maid servants who have entered the ban from the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
A generation of new people replaces the old ones. This forbidden city is like a portrayal of the entire Song Dynasty. During the great changes, there are new atmospheres everywhere, and new challenges are also faced.
It was already the end of spring at this time, and there was very little snow in the winter of the first year of Xuanhe, and the Ministry of Household Affairs reported early this year's grain harvest that it might not be too good.
Especially in the land of Jingchu, which was originally a large grain producer, it is also said that there is too little rain.
Yang Lin first sent people to dig more ditches and reservoirs to store water, then prepared food and transported it to Jingchu ahead of schedule.
On the Bian River, there was an endless stream of ships coming and going, congested and jammed, and the cart workers on the port wharf were tired and sweaty, and they couldn't keep up with the speed of the arrival of the cargo ships.
Under the Luo umbrella not far away, Yang Lin frowned and asked, "There are so many merchant ships from Jingchu to Bianliang, what are they transporting?"
Behind him, Wang Yun, the president of the Chamber of Commerce in Xiulou, said in a low voice after hearing the words: "There are mostly food."
Yang Lin turned around and said with a smile: "Are you kidding me, the grain from Bianliang is shipped to Jingchu by boat, and then the grain from Jingchu is shipped to Bianliang?"
Wang Yun accompanied him carefully and replied: "How dare a villain bully Shao Zai, Shao Zai doesn't know, not only Jingchu, but also grain merchants in Song Dynasty all buy from Bianliang, and then transport them back to sell.
There is not much farming in Kaifeng Prefecture, and the food is purchased from other provinces. This process has been going on for a hundred years. "
This is too ridiculous, transporting grain to Bianliang, then buying it in Bianliang, and then transporting it back.Isn't this full of food?
There are many such funny things in the Song Dynasty. If Yang Lin knows more about it, he will find that it is not a big deal.
Because there is a quantity requirement for the grain shipped to Bianliang from various places every year, if it cannot be met, the local officials will have to go everywhere to buy grain.
Xu Zhichang was beside him and explained to Yang Lin in a low voice.
"Even if there is such a law, it should be adapted to the current situation and know how to adapt. None of the Jingchu officials wrote a letter pointing out this disadvantage. Who is the governor of Jingchu?"
As soon as Xu Zhichang heard that he was angry, he hurriedly said: "The Ministry of Zhongshu decided that Li Gang, the former Taichang Shaoqing, should be the governor of Jingchu."
