Aspiring to the Ten Kingdoms

Chapter 281 Moral Bottom Line
When Han Kuangsi said this, Yelujing, the emperor known for his brutality, gasped.

Veterans like Yelu Xiyin, Gao Xun, Xiao Qian, and Yelusha, who have been on the battlefield for a long time and killed decisively, couldn't help but change their colors.

Not to mention a literati like Xiao Siwen who read sage books.

Xiao Siwen couldn't help but asked, "Is this method too vicious?"

Han Kuangsi was displeased, and said sharply: "What is vicious? The Central Plains is my old enemy in Daliao, and the two are destined to be unable to coexist. Even if you die and I live, it is a situation where the other is strong and the other is weak, and the other is weak and the other is strong. It is impossible for the two to coexist. Strong. Leaving Shunzhou, Jizhou, and Tanzhou to the Central Plains will only increase the strength of the Central Plains."

"The strength of the Central Plains is stronger, and our Daliao is weaker."

"It's so stupid to strengthen the enemy and weaken yourself!"

"Besides, my national policy of the Liao Dynasty has never been disadvantaged by the people. Shangjing has a large area and few people, and the people of Yanyou are good at farming. They moved them to Shangjing, gave them land, exempted them from taxes, and helped them repair their houses. They care about Homeland, it doesn’t matter. We can choose a place in Linhuang Mansion and build them exactly the same city, also called Shunzhou, Jizhou, and Tanzhou.”

Han Kuangsi's voice became louder and louder as he spoke, full of anger, with the feeling of a bastard's inadequacy and conspiracy.

Yelujing was hesitant to go south to rescue Youzhou this time.

As a sleeping emperor who was greedy for pleasure, Yelujing didn't have much ambition, unlike Taizu Yelu Abaoji, and Taizong Yelu Deguang had the ambition to rule the Central Plains and drink horses in the Yellow River.

I just want to be the emperor of Khitan in the Northeast, hunt and drink, stay up late at night, sleep comfortably during the day, and live a comfortable and comfortable life.

The gains and losses of Youzhou are not critical in Yelujing's heart, the control of the grassland over Khitan is the first priority.

Da Zhou aggressively invaded Youyan this time, and after Yelujing received the request for help, the first thing he thought about was whether it would affect his control over Khitan.

And Han Kuangsi boasted that he had the talent of Wang Zuo, so he should make contributions just like his father Han Zhigu.

It's just that no matter whether the current emperor Yelujing or the previous emperor Yeluruan is a conservative generation, they focus on consolidating the throne and never expand their territories.

Han Kuangsi only hated that he had no talent but no place to display it.

It was a rare encounter with the Great Zhou invasion, and Han Kuangsi suddenly felt that this was a godsend opportunity, and after all kinds of persuasion, he succeeded in convincing Yelujing to conquest.

As a result, the two armies fought, and the Khitan suffered repeated setbacks. Nearly half of the 40 troops were lost, and [-] livestock fell into the enemy's hands.

Defeated again and again, Han Kuangsi was filled with grief and indignation.

He didn't find the reason on himself, but was angry at Xiao Siwen's incompetence, easily allowing the Central Plains to capture Youzhou, and complained that Yelujing's mud could not support the wall, and turned a blind eye to his suggestion of expanding iron kites and training siege infantry.

At this point, Xiao Siwen, a bad idiot, still has the face to call himself vicious?

If it wasn't for the Han family putting everything on Khitan, how could he not stand out with his own talent?

Xiao Siwen was so stunned that he was speechless. Seeing that his friend was furious, he didn't speak, but kept frowning.

Seeing Han Kuangsi's stern words, Yelujing was a little annoyed, and hurriedly said: "Han Xiangwen, don't get excited, what you said is indeed reasonable. I am not a tyrannical king, and I will not treat my Daliao people badly."

When he said this, all the court officials and military officials laughed secretly.

If you are not cruel, who else can be called cruel?
This established the policy of burning the city and relocating the people, and the first person to notify was naturally Liu Tinggao, the governor of Shunzhou.

Liu Tinggao is a Han, but not a Khitanized Han. He has not entered the high-level, and is not eligible to participate in this kind of meeting.

After this plan, all the military officials went down to prepare.

When only Yelujing, Han Kuangsi, and Xiao Siwen were left in the mansion, Liu Tinggao was called to the mansion.

Yelujing didn't even think about listening to Liu Tinggao's opinion, and directly issued an order to appease the people and persuade them.

Hearing the act of burning the city and relocating the people, Liu Tinggao changed color instantly, and exclaimed: "Your Majesty, this method may disappoint His Majesty, it is not appropriate!"

Hearing this, Yelujing frowned slightly, and then looked at Han Kuangsi.

Yelvjing is cruel, but she doesn't love the people.

He is a contradiction.

He is not a womanizer, and even gets upset when he sees a woman. All the people around him who serve him are eunuchs.

But he was extremely harsh to these eunuchs, and when the servant returned home privately, he killed the whole family of the servant.

Drinking on the top, killing a few officials who served close to him for fun, killing people in dreams.

The valet who had been with him for ten years hurt his chicken, and he killed the valet...

He is just such a bastard, but he is very good to the people, and he does not distinguish between Liao and Han, and often introduces some policies that treat the people well.

Therefore, history has given him a very pertinent evaluation: "Saving corvees and ignoring taxes, people enjoy their lives."

Hearing Liu Tinggao said that he would lose popularity, Yelvjing was a little shaken again.

Han Kuangsi hated in his heart, and said, "Isn't Governor Liu also a person who moved to the north, is he also dissatisfied with me, Daliao?"

Liu Tinggao's expression changed instantly, and he said hurriedly: "I dare not, I dare not forget the kindness of Emperor Taizong."

Liu Tinggao was originally an ordinary teacher in Wuzhong County, Jizhou. When the Liao soldiers attacked Caogu, he was taken captive to Shangjing.

Liu Tinggao found out that the people who were taken captive by the Khitan to Shangjing hadn't been abused in any way.

The Khitan people kindly gave them fields, and helped them build houses for them to live in, and even named the places where they lived according to the proportion of their number.

For example, the county where he is located is called Wuzhong County, because the majority of people in Wuzhong County were plundered.

Because of Liu Tinggao's good literary talents, the Khitan people directly made him the county magistrate.

This inexplicably became an official in the Liao Han people. Liu Tinggao accumulated a lot of management experience, and finally he was favored by Liao Taizong Yelu Deguang, promoted step by step, and became the governor of Shunzhou.

Therefore, Han Kuangsi said that Liu Tinggao was the one who moved north.

Liu Tinggao didn't dare to say any more, and followed orders.

Walking out of the government office, Liu Tinggao felt more and more uncomfortable.

Compared with being a teacher and now occupying the high position of the local governor, Liu Tinggao is naturally satisfied and sincerely works for Khitan.

The current situation is bad, Yelujing intends to go north, Liu Tinggao also plans to move his family to Shangjing, and become a down-to-earth native of Liaohan.

But Han Kuangsi's move hurt Tianhe, and it had already touched the bottom line of Liu Tinggao's own morality.

What Han Kuangsi said was hype, it was a fool.

Khitan's policies are not bad for the Han people, and it can even be said that the people are treated equally.

Liu Tinggao also knew that if the people of the three prefectures really came to Shangjing, there is no doubt that they would live and work in peace and contentment.

But the question is how to get there?

Back then he was kidnapped by the Khitan people who were raiding Caogu and brought him to Shangjing. More than 180 of them died on the way.

You must know that the Khitan captives choose adult men and women who are healthy and healthy.

Shunzhou and Tanzhou have small populations, but Jizhou is a big state with 10,000+ people in the three states.

Such a large-scale relocation, thousands of miles, and difficult roads along the way, how to solve the problem of food and water?

How many people can really make it to Beijing alive?
What's the difference between that and massacre?
