Doctor of the Great Song Dynasty: In the beginning, Li Qingzhao and Li Qingzhao made a private decis

Chapter 296
Following Zhao Xu's final decision, all the officials in the court couldn't help but sigh. No one expected that Fan Zheng would elevate his position to such an important position after taking up the post of Supervisor of Pingxia City.

Not to mention that he saved Zhong Pu and Yao Xiong once by the way. Otherwise, even if they made great achievements, they would not be able to escape the questioning of civil officials.

"Reporting to the officials, Chong Pu and Yao Xiong's western expedition may be justifiable, but it is an indisputable fact that it caused chaos in Qingtang."

"Our army has just occupied Qingtang, and the Tibetan Qiang will definitely not accept it. I am afraid there will be endless troubles!"

..............................

Hundreds of officials have said that although they have reached a tacit understanding of the integration of civil and military affairs, if the chaos in Qingtang is not dealt with in time, there may be future troubles.

After all, it is easy to conquer the country, but difficult to defend it. The land of Qingtang is remote, and the surrounding tribes do not return their hearts. It may be extremely difficult to defend it.

"If you want to defend Qingtang with only [-] troops, there will be many loopholes. I sincerely ask the court to continue recruiting troops to intimidate the various ministries in Qingtang!" Zeng Bu suggested.

"The ministers and others objected. The ministries of Qingtang were already hostile to the Song Dynasty. If the army suppressed it, it would only be counterproductive. It is better to focus on Huairou." Lu Dafang objected.

The suppression of the army will only make Qingtang's ministries more alienated from the Song Dynasty. Now the army has spent a lot of money and spent a lot of military expenses to lay down the Qingtang. The stability of Qingtang is urgently needed to provide a steady stream of war horses for the Song Dynasty. The bridgehead that threatens the hinterland of Xixia naturally does not want chaos in Qingtang.

Previously, all the court officials wanted to suppress Zhong Pu and Yao Xiong. Apart from using literature to control military force, they did not give an explanation to the Qingtang tribes and used them to win over the tribes.

Zhao Xu couldn't help but have a headache. The Qingtang is the first step of the Song Dynasty's great detour strategy. Naturally, there is no room for loss. However, the military supervision system has not yet been implemented. If too many troops are sent to the Qingtang, it will also go against the Song Dynasty's strong and weak branches. national policy.

Seeing this, Fan Zheng said, "I have a plan that has the best of both worlds. It can stabilize Qingtang without requiring the court to waste too much money."

When Baiguan saw Fan Zheng jumping out again, he couldn't help frowning.

Without him!Although Fan Zheng's prescriptions had miraculous effects many times, they were extremely wicked.

"Please tell me, Fan Aiqing!" Zhao Xu was overjoyed.

Fan Zheng cupped his hands and said, "Report to the officials, the strategy of building the Corps has been a great success, and it can be implemented in Qingtang!"

"Construction Corps?"

Zhao Xu couldn't help being taken aback, and it took a while to realize that the Construction Corps was a pilot site for doctors to grow wormwood and open up farms.

All the officials in the court also reacted, and then they understood what Fan Zheng meant, and prepared to use soldiers to stabilize the Qingtang area.

Fan Zheng said solemnly: "The Song Dynasty has just conquered Qingtang, and all the tribes will definitely not accept Wang Hua in their hearts. In addition, there are Xixia secretly making troubles in the north, and the Tubo tribes on the snowfields in the south are watching. Let Qingtang return to obedience."

Zhao Xu nodded slightly. The Song Dynasty owns the Qingtang, which can directly threaten the hinterland of Xixia. Xixia will definitely not sit idly by, and will definitely support the tribes of the Qingtang to resist the Song Dynasty. Also, the tribes of Tubo on the Qingtang and the snowfield are one. Now that the Song Dynasty has cracked the qi epidemic, Qingtang is destroyed, and the Tubo tribes will surely fight against the Song Dynasty together.

You must know that the air epidemic above the snowfield is not at the same level as the air epidemic in Qingtang. If there are not enough troops to suppress it, I am afraid that rebellions will continue in Qingtang, and the [-] troops will be embattled on all sides.

"And if the Song Dynasty continues to send troops to sit in Qingtang, it will cost a lot of money, the supply line is too long, it will be difficult to maintain in the long run, and a large number of troops are hoarding Qingtang, and the troops in the northwest are reduced, which is easy to be taken advantage of by Xixia. "Fan Zheng continued to analyze.

All the officials of the Manchu Dynasty nodded. This is where the court is in a dilemma. Whether they send troops to Qingtang or not, there will be great hidden dangers.

Fan Zheng continued: "This is not the case with the Xiang soldiers. Their combat effectiveness is not as good as that of the Forbidden Army. However, they are more than enough for the Qingtang tribes with backward equipment. Sending Xiang soldiers to Qingtang can not only relieve the heavy burden of Xiang soldiers, but also the soil in the Hehuang Valley is fertile. , the water source is sufficient, and if we promote the construction of corps here, it will not only intimidate the tribes in Qingtang, but also cultivate fields to supply food and grass for the soldiers of the Western Expedition. It can be said that it kills several birds with one stone."

"Soldiers!"

"Construction Corps!"

All the officials in the Manchu Dynasty were talking about it. The Great Song Dynasty indeed pursued strong stems and weak branches. However, the focus of its defense was on the forbidden army. Naturally, they would gnash their teeth against the Xiangbing soldiers who had low force and spent a lot of money and food from the court every year.

However, Xiang soldiers are an indispensable part of the court for the stability of the people, and the court can only spend a lot of money and food every year to support them.

"You may not know that in less than half a year, [-] soldiers were able to cultivate [-] acres of fertile land and cultivate precious artemisia. Not only were they self-sufficient in food, they would also be able to harvest a cotton supply worth tens of thousands of dollars during the autumn harvest. Ordnance Supervision, this is enough for a farm, and the scale of the Hehuang Valley is comparable to Kaifeng Prefecture. If the construction corps is used to cultivate the farm, it will be enough to harvest hundreds of thousands of tons of grain every year, which is more than enough to supply the northwest army with food and grass." Fan Zhengzheng said.

Zhao Xu's heart skipped a beat immediately, Xiang soldiers were a heavy burden in the Song Dynasty, but in Qingtang they could turn waste into treasure, not only they could garrison the fields, but they could also sit in the Qingtang.

"Furthermore, Zhongpu and Yaoxiong broke Ali's bones this time, and captured a large number of cattle and sheep. If the Xiang soldiers arrive at Qingtang, the farmland and animal husbandry can be carried out smoothly." Fan Zheng said again.

All the officials in the Manchu Dynasty nodded again and again.

"I think this is a good strategy!"

This time, even the most conservative Lu Dafang was convinced.

With the pearls and jade from the Artemisia wormwood farm in front, it is the best plan to send soldiers to the Hehuang Valley to form a construction corps and reclaim the farm.

"The ministers agree with this policy!"

Hundreds of officials also echoed.

Seeing that the court reached an agreement, Zhao Xu said in a loud voice: "Decree, the Hehuang Valley is the old place of China. Today's return, especially Qingtang is the Shanzhou, and Miaochuan is the Huangzhou."

Whether it is Qingtang or Miaochuan, it is the place name of Qingtang. Now that it has been conquered by the Song Dynasty, it is natural to restore the place name of the Sui and Tang Dynasties to show orthodoxy.

"The officials are wise!"

All the officials nodded one after another.

"I'm sending an order. Fan Zhengping has made great contributions in forming the construction corps. He is specially appointed as the Marquis of Yu, commanding [-] soldiers. He will go to Shanzhou and Huangzhou to be responsible for setting up farms and clearing up wasteland for farming!" Fan Zheng said again.

"Thirty thousand soldiers!"

All the officials couldn't help but exclaimed, knowing that the Song army only used [-] elite soldiers to capture Qingtang, and the number of soldiers led by Fan Zhengping directly surpassed that of the Western Expeditionary Army.

Originally, he was only a county lieutenant in Kaifeng, commanding at most [-] soldiers, but now that he has gained power, he has become a general with [-] soldiers under his command.

But the officials understood that the reason why Fan Zhengping had such an opportunity was almost entirely due to the guidance of the evil doctor Fan Zheng, and even the origin of the Construction Corps was to grow wormwood for doctors.

In addition, the reform of the military supervision system, as well as Zhong Pu and Yao Xiong, etc. all benefited from Fan Zheng.

"Fan Zheng, the evil doctor!"

The eyes of all the officials couldn't help but look complicated, Fan Zheng is really evil, anyone who opposes him will fall under his evil method, and those who are close to him will benefit from his evil method.
