Summoning the Mythical Eternal Emperor

Chapter 293 Stable
After saying that, Zhao Yuan waved his hand, and the eunuch Bingbi carefully read out the detailed memorial that was sent urgently from Ganzhou!
Although the news of the great victory in Xiliang had already spread throughout Chang'an City, no matter whether it was court officials or ordinary people, they only knew the general idea.

How they won, how many victories and losses, and how many prisoners they had, they didn't know anything about it!
After the eunuch Bingbi finished reading, the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty were silent for tens of breaths, and everyone was dumbfounded, unable to believe their ears!

After a long time.

Zhang Juzheng, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, was the first to kowtow on the ground, and shouted:
"My majesty's talent is so great that it can surpass the ages!!"

Immediately afterwards, all civil and military officials scrambled to kneel down, shouting long live.

Zhao Yuankai was helpless.

The first sentence before going to court is that there is no need to be too polite, and don't say too many flattering words.

But the imperial power and prestige are here, and the achievements of Lin Dynasty so far can be described as unparalleled. I am afraid that these civil and military officials will be frightened.

"You don't need to be polite, please tell me, what should Liangzhou do next?"

Zhao Yuan flicked his sleeves and said with a light smile.

At this time, he was in an unprecedentedly good mood.

Traveling through so far, the basic calculation is completely stable, and the road ahead will become easier and easier.

The ministers got up.

The Minister of the Ministry of War was the first to stand up with a bow, his voice was visibly trembling, and he said:

"Your Majesty, I...I have something to say!"

"The Tianzi Division and the Xiliang Army wiped out nearly 50 barbarian coalition forces within half a month. It can be said that the national power of the barbarian countries has been halved directly, and they have been breathless for at least ten years!"

"Especially in the Xiongnu Kingdom going north, the hussar generals were so powerful. After taking over the Hudun King's tribe, they directly slaughtered Shan Yuting. The territory of the Huns in the southern half of the country has already belonged to the Han!"

"There is also the Gaochang Department of the Turkic Kingdom. After the army is destroyed, it can be included in the territory of the Han Dynasty!"

"That's why I suggest that you enlist troops immediately, and after the beginning of spring, set up a new Protectorate Mansion and set up a stele of the Han Dynasty!"

The Minister of the Ministry of War is not young.

When they ransacked the house before, there were quite a few people who were greedy. Seeing that Zhao Yuankai was submissive and extremely conservative.

I didn't expect to speak so boldly now!
but……

Zhao Yuankai still shook his head and said:

"At present, we are fighting again and again, and the grain and grass reserves recruited from Jizhou are empty, so it is not suitable for large-scale conscription! The matter of setting up the Han Dynasty stele to mark the national border is temporarily delayed!"

In fact, Zhao Yuankai was not very interested in the territory of the barbarians.

The entire nomadic people have no awareness of where to live, and the desert and grassland outside the pass are extremely vast, which is difficult to control!

also!

And the most important point.

From Chang'an to Xiliang, there is a long and narrow corridor, which is very similar to the Hexi Corridor in China.

After the Huaxia strong Han pacified the Western Regions, they established the Western Regions Protectorate, which was once expanded in the heyday of the Tang Dynasty and was renamed Anxi Protectorate, with a huge radiating range.

But later, the prosperous Tang Dynasty declined, and the Tubo Kingdom cut off the Hexi Corridor.

Since then, the Western Regions have been isolated, two generations of Tang generals, many white-haired soldiers, and the lonely army has been standing alone for 40 years, but finally there is no reinforcement from the court!

At present, the geography of Kyushu Dahan is very similar to that of Huaxia.

However, the country that dominates the Tubo Kingdom has become the Xixia Kingdom, which is not a plateau area, but an ancient country that is not weaker than the Han!
The Xixia Kingdom is connected to Liangzhou and borders Yizhou to the east.

It's just that it is separated from Liangzhou by a dangerous mountain range, which makes it difficult for them to browse through it.

There are almost no exchanges between countries in the different worlds of Kyushu, at least in the Tianlu Pavilion of the Great Han Dynasty, there are very few records of foreign exchanges!

The border area will always be heavily guarded!

To the north of Yanmen, there is Yuanmen, where ancestors followed Taizu.

Zhengxi Gate, the foreign surname Wang is the pillar of the country, guarding the gate.

And Jiaozhou, Yizhou, which went south, has been an important place where the Han family's clan and vassals supported their soldiers since ancient times!

Coupled with the fault of Shi Zhi, Zhao Yuankai always felt that there was something wrong, which was very strange...

anyway.

The priority of Zhao Yuankai's current strategy is not to expand westward, but to recover the south of the Hanshui River and the two states of Qingyou and Qingyou in the far east of Dahan!
As for the barbarians, after the battle, they directly plundered resources such as cattle and sheep, and Neizhuang Liangzhou was the fundamental priority!
At this time.

Xu Xuan'an, the new Secretary of the Ministry of Agriculture, bowed and stepped out, saying:
"Your Majesty Shengming."

"I believe that after the great victory in Liangzhou, the first task is to recuperate!"

"My hometown is at the junction of Zhongzhou and Liangzhou. Since I was born, I have witnessed continuous wars and disasters that have caused the people of Liangzhou to suffer. In order to resist the barbarians, many Liangzhou people have been in exile. Ding You all support the border!"

Xu Xuan'an's words won Zhao Yuankai's approval.

He nodded, set his eyes on Zhang Juzheng, and asked with a light smile:
"Zhang Juzheng, tell me, what do you think?"

Above the court, Zhang Juzheng was the leader of the officials, but he was always the one who talked the least.

After he obeyed, he bowed out, and Zhao Yuan's eyes lit up as soon as he opened his mouth.

"Your Majesty, I know that Liangzhou's victory is just around the corner, so I have been thinking about Liangzhou's post-war reconstruction for the past few days!"

"I dug through a lot of historical materials, during which time I summoned several important officials in Liangzhou. After a comprehensive summary, I discovered the following problems in Liangzhou!"

When Zhang Juzheng said this, Zhao Yuankai immediately sighed happily.

This level of awareness and efficiency is worthy of Zhang Juzheng, the famous minister of the ages!
"Okay! Tell me!" Zhao Yuan shouted.

"The old minister obeyed."

Zhang Juzheng bowed again, and then said:

"First of all, the barbarians have been harassing the Han for a long time, and Liangzhou has suffered greatly from it. As Xu Shangshu said, all the young and strong people supported the border, and countless people died in battle. This is the fault of the population."

"Secondly, in order to avoid the chaos of war, many common people were displaced, and farming was seriously abandoned."

"But recuperation is not a matter of a day or two. What the people of Liangzhou need most now is the relief from the imperial court. However, the food for this relief does not need to be sent out of the state warehouse, but directly harvested outside the customs!"

"After the top priority is resolved, it's time for the Ministry of Agriculture to perform on stage, cultivate food according to the water and soil, and upgrade farm tools at the same time!"

"King Zhenxi has been in Liangzhou for these years, and one thing he has done very well is that he never accepts children under the age of 15 to join the army, so there are still freshmen in Liangzhou!"

"Right now, Liangzhou is like a blank sheet of paper. All the people are loyal to the Han Dynasty, and the officials are clean and transparent. As long as the national policy is issued, they will be able to respond efficiently!"

Speaking of this, Zhang Juzheng took a deep breath and sighed honestly:
"Your Majesty, in fact, Liangzhou does not need much assistance from the Guochao at all. As long as the big man can give them a sense of security and guide them with national policies, the people of Liangzhou will return it to the Guochao ten times and a hundred times!"

As soon as these words came out, the officials sighed.

Even Zhao Yuankai himself was deeply moved.

The people of Liangzhou under the rule of King Zhenxi are indeed the rare people in the world who are worry-free and self-improving!

The barbarians have harassed the Han for 300 years, and when the later period of the dynasty fell, it all relied on the people of Liangzhou to resist foreign aggression. While they were displaced, they also supported the border!
The son of the Xiliang Army was born and raised by them.

The food and grass for the Xiliang army were picked out bit by bit from the rations.

Zhang Juzheng is right, it is enough to give Liangzhou a stability!

And the most important point.

It is also the bottom line that King Zhenxi has always adhered to.

The Xiliang Army has been protecting children and adolescents under the age of 15 in Liangzhou, and this is the real foundation of Liangzhou.

So far, Zhao Yuankai didn't ask any more questions, and just made a decision!

"Liangzhou's current national policy focuses on recuperation. The Ministry of Agriculture and the Ministry of Industry will first start upgrading Liangzhou's agricultural tools, and then study the soil and water, sowing seeds according to local conditions!"

"The Ministry of Officials and the Guozijian selected a group of young and capable officials from poor families to support Liangzhou's officials. At the same time, they built schools and sent the first batch of printed books to Liangzhou. Those young people... I hope they can read and understand. !"

"In addition, pass on my decree to Huo Qubing and Chen Qingzhi, so that they don't have to hurry to return to the imperial court, and after a short rest, break into the nomadic tribes outside the pass, and bring back as much cattle and sheep as they have, so that the people of Liangzhou can have a good year! "

"Finally, the old rules, Zhang Juzheng checks the whole process!"

"Retreat!"

Say it.

Zhao Yuankai got up directly and walked away.

In the Taiji Hall, all the civil and military officials were in awe and respect. Seeing the emperor leave, they breathed a sigh of relief and began to sigh in admiration.

"Your Majesty has only been in court for more than a month. First swallowing Beirong, and now pacifying Liangzhou's foreign aggression, under such great achievements, there is no trace of complacency. Instead, he puts the people's livelihood of Liangzhou in the first place... Mingjun, Mingjun what!"

"It's not just Mingjun, he is simply a peerless hero. This...how long has he been in court!"

"Thinking that I am a big man, the officials are suddenly single-minded. On the top, there is Emperor Tianwu, who is talented and general, and on the bottom, Zhang Zaifu is dedicated. Zaifu, please be respected by the officials!"

"Zaifu, I am in awe and admiration!"

"Lord Zaisuke..."

All the ministers bowed to Zhang Juzheng and made long bows, they really respected him.

Zhang Juzheng returned the salute, but his face was still solemn, and said:
"My lords, against Wang Weiping in the south of the Han River, the two states of Qingyou in the Far East still don't respect the imperial power of the Han Dynasty. There is a heavy responsibility and a long way to go!"

"Lord Zaifu, why do you feel afraid of the long way to go? This big man has Emperor Tianwu reigning in the world, and Lord Zaifu is doing his best to help him. Revitalization is just around the corner, and the prosperous age has already begun!"

"That's right, how lucky I am to be an official under the rule of Tianwu!"

"My lords, Your Majesty is diligent in his administration, and Zhang Zaifu has devoted himself to everything. We must not delay the revitalization of the country and become mediocre people in this prosperous age!"

……

When the court officials resigned, everyone was encouraged.

When I was overjoyed, I felt that the burden on my shoulders was heavier.

This……

It's called a sense of mission!

The Liangzhou victory spread throughout Chang'an City.

Up and down the capital, there was a joyous dance, and countless people paid homage to Weiyang Palace, admiring the current Emperor Tianwu extremely.

The same is true in the Imperial City and Imperial Palace.

The harem and the inner court, no matter how high or low, all have tears in their eyes and encouragement.

Confidence, more than anything else.
