Chapter 457 0453 [Song Jin doesn’t even want to face him anymore? 】

Huangdi Calendar, 3823.

The second day of the first lunar month.

A heavy snowfall enveloped Kaifeng Mansion.

The snow was heavy, and within half an hour, the ground was covered with a layer of snow.

Standing in the Chuigong Hall, looking at the increasingly heavy snow outside the hall, Han Zhen murmured to himself: "This is the third snowfall this year."

Liu Chang on the side said softly: "Auspicious snow heralds a good harvest, and this year will definitely be another good harvest year."

"You do not understand."

Han Zhen shook his head, his tone a little helpless.

Later generations only know that the late Ming Dynasty was in the Little Ice Age, but they did not know that the late Northern Song Dynasty was also in the Little Ice Age, and it was colder than the late Ming Dynasty.

Why is Henan called Yu?

Because during the fucking Shang Dynasty, Henan was full of elephants.

Clues can be gleaned from the ancient paintings and murals circulated.

In addition to the high grain output, no one can be killed by freezing in winter.

At its peak, the Tang Dynasty had 70 war horses alone.

This is obviously unreasonable.

The Jin people had been oppressed by the Liao Kingdom for hundreds of years, so why did they rebel against the Liao Dynasty only in the past ten years?

Isn't it just that the cold is unbearable?

If you look at the pictures of ladies from the Northern Song Dynasty, each one is more tightly wrapped than the last.

You know, during the Spring and Autumn Period, Yan Zi said the famous saying "Oranges born in Huainan are oranges, and those born in North Huaibei are oranges."

The collapse of a dynasty is always caused by the superposition of multiple factors, not just the emperor's stupidity.

Similarly, the prosperity of a dynasty also has many factors.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Liu Che, destroyed the Xiongnu, consuming all the wealth that his ancestors had worked hard to accumulate for generations, and almost torn the Han Dynasty into pieces.

People in the Central Plains of the Tang Dynasty lived in the subtropical zone, and rice was harvested three times a year. Is this comparable to the Little Ice Age of the Ming and Qing Dynasties?

In the winter in Chang'an during the Tang Dynasty, there was no ice or snow.

Later generations thought that the people of the Tang Dynasty lived a miserable life because they directly copied the miserable conditions of the people of the Ming and Qing Dynasties. In fact, there is no comparison at all.

In the early years of the Southern Song Dynasty, the West Lake in Hangzhou in the south of the Yangtze River was covered with a thick layer of ice. You can imagine how much lower the temperature was than in the Tang Dynasty.

Pastures can be seen everywhere, with abundant water and grass, and an amazing number of cattle and sheep.

Needless to say more about the environment and climate of elephants everywhere?

climate!

The original Ice Age suddenly warmed up in the early Tang Dynasty, and the climate returned to the pleasant climate of the ancient Yin and Shang Dynasties.

Third degree, many people may not know what this concept is.

This is the main reason why Li Erfeng and Li Zhi fought so many wars and destroyed so many countries. Instead of collapsing, the domestic economy became stronger and stronger as they fought!

Li Longji planted several tangerine trees in Chang'an Palace, which bear hundreds of fruits every year. They are delicious and sweet, and are no different from the tangerines in the south of the Yangtze River.

Because of this, Du Fu wrote this sentence: Recalling the heyday of Kaiyuan in the past, Xiaoyi still had thousands of households, the rice was dripping with fat, the corn was white, and both public and private warehouses were abundant.

Why?

These three places have become subtropical zones. Do you know how many more tens of thousands of kilo more food can be produced every year?

Just a Taishan enshrinement ceremony caused many people in Shandong to be displaced and their families destroyed.

Pictures of ladies in the Tang Dynasty, especially in the early and middle Tang Dynasty, were all dressed in light gauze and scantily clad clothes.

Because there is a bumper harvest in all parts of the country, there is no shortage of food!

But by the end of the Tang Dynasty, everything changed again and the temperature dropped again, until it reached its lowest point at the end of the Song Dynasty and lasted for nearly a thousand years.

In terms of mediocrity, Song Zhenzong was worse than Zhao Ji.

In other words, if the global temperature rises by three degrees, Henan, Shaanxi, and Shandong in the Yellow River Basin will become subtropical, similar to Guangdong and Yunnan in later generations.

Not only did the domestic economy not collapse, it actually improved to a higher level than during the Zhenguan period, laying a solid foundation for the subsequent Kaiyuan era.

Jiangnan in the Tang Dynasty was equivalent to Southeast Asia in later generations.

During the Zhenguan period alone, Li Erfeng raised troops many times to destroy six countries including DTZ, Gaochang, Tuyuhun, Xue Yantuo, Zhongtianzhu, and Qiuci.

The reason why it is so abnormal is that in addition to having many famous coaches such as Li Jing and Li Ji, the most important thing is the climate!

At the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, the global climate suddenly warmed up and returned to what it was like during the Shang Dynasty.

After Li Zhi came to power, he continued to fight and destroyed the Western Turks, Baekje, and Goguryeo.

70 war horses!

In the paintings of the Tang Dynasty, all individuals are riding horses.

The main reason is heat and high temperature.

Longyou is where the soldiers of the government are stationed in the fields, and the Hexi Corridor is a place rich in water and grass.

The temperature in the Tang Dynasty was three degrees higher than that in the late Song Dynasty.

Li Longji's Kaiyuan Dynasty recorded a jaw-dropping incident. There was a bumper wheat harvest in Qingyang, Gansu Province, but the farmers could not sell the grain.

Not to mention Hedong and Hebei, which were the granaries of the Tang Dynasty!

After destroying the six kingdoms, the result was that they did not collapse the newly established Tang Dynasty, but instead established the rule of Zhenguan.

Even the West Lake is freezing. How cold is it in the north?

Why Han Zhen did not consider making Chang'an or Luoyang the capital was because during the Tang Dynasty, these two places could easily host the capital of a country due to their climate and water system.

But now, with drastic changes in climate, this is no longer possible.

Not to mention the bumper harvest in Guanzhong, it is no longer even suitable for growing food.

Later generations of Westerners have been clamoring to beware of global warming, just to inhibit the development of industry in third world countries. The second is that global warming is not good for maritime countries, but for countries in the east of Central Asia, it is simply a godsend.

The Central Plains, Shandong, and Hebei have become subtropical, Shaanxi, Gansu, and Ningxia have abundant rainfall and fertile fields, and Xinjiang is lush and green, with oases all over...

With just a little imagination, you can understand the benefits of global warming to the East.

Now that we know thousands of years of history, why is there only the Kaiyuan era?

It was the right time, the right place, the right people, and all the people, so it was my only share!

Now, Han Zhen will face the Little Ice Age.

According to the memory of the previous life, it was from this year that the temperature would drop off a cliff, eventually hitting the bottom and lasting for a full hundred years. The cyclical changes in the earth's temperature cannot be changed, but Han Zhen feels that man can conquer nature.

Since we can't grow food in Shaanxi, Gansu and Ningxia, we will fight!

Conquer Southeast Asia and India and make these places new granaries!

Coupled with the sweet potatoes, potatoes, and corn brought from the Americas, he couldn't believe that he couldn't feed so many mouths in the country.

Liu Chang knew that His Majesty was thinking about important matters again.

At this moment, a young eunuch came trotting through the snow outside the palace.

Upon seeing this, Liu Chang immediately went up to greet him and said in a low voice: "Keep your voice down, don't disturb your majesty."

The young eunuch presented a wax-sealed secret report: "Mr. Liu, there is a secret report from Fan House."

"I understand, just step back."

Liu Chang received the secret report, turned around and walked into the palace.

Just as he was hesitating whether to speak, Han Zhen came back from his thoughts and asked, "What's the matter?"

"Your Majesty, Fan Lou has a secret report."

Liu Chang said and presented the secret report.

After taking it, Han Zhen glanced quickly, and then ordered: "Xuanjun, the cabinet, and the chief officials of the household department enter the palace!"

……

Xie Ding and Liu Mi, wearing large cloaks, walked quickly in the imperial city despite the wind and snow.

Today was Xiu Mu. The two of them were celebrating the New Year at home. After receiving the decree, they hurried to the imperial city.

"Does Mr. Xie know why he entered the palace?"

Liu Mi panted slightly, and bursts of white mist floated out of his mouth and nose, quickly dissipating in the wind and snow.

Xie Ding shook his head: "I don't know, but it's such an emergency, it should be a big deal."

Hearing this, Liu Mi looked worried and asked: "Could it be that the Song and Jin countries took action?"

"It may not be impossible to take action now."

While talking, the two walked through Daqing Hall and came to Chui Gong Hall.

Liu Chang had been waiting in front of the palace gate for a long time. When he saw the two of them, he immediately came forward and said, "Your Majesty is in the study. Please come this way, please."

"Good work."

Xie Dinggong cupped his hand and then asked: "General Manager Liu, does he know why your Majesty summoned us?"

"Our family doesn't know either."

Liu Chang smiled bitterly and lowered his voice: "But it should be about the Song and Jin countries."

Xie Ding and Liu Mi showed understanding, and they knew what was going on.

Under the leadership of Liu Chang, the two of them crossed the hall and came to the study.

"Your Majesty, the two ministers have arrived."

"Come in."

Pushing open the study door, a wave of heat suddenly hit my face.

Shi Wenhui, Zhang Shuye, and Zhao Ting arrived first and were sitting in the study with solemn expressions.

"I have met His Majesty."

The two bowed in greeting.

Han Zhen greeted: "Sit down."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for sitting down."

Xie Ding took off his snow-stained cloak and came to sit down at the desk.

He took the teacup handed to him by the palace maid, took a sip of hot tea, and suddenly felt a little warmer.

Seeing that everyone was here, Han Zhen said: "The Secret Intelligence Department has just intercepted a secret report from the Puppet Song Dynasty. The three countries of Song, Jin and Xixia plan to launch an undeclared war and launch a surprise attack at the same time on March 15th!"

After the words fell, everyone's expressions changed.

Although I had already known about the plan of the Puppet Song Dynasty and Jin Dynasty to conquer Qi, I didn't expect it to come so soon. It was chosen on March 15th, and I couldn't even wait for the summer harvest.

If it weren't for the Secret Service's meritorious service, they would have been caught off guard.

I have to say, this timing was chosen very well.

The beginning of March is the beginning of spring. In the next hundred days, it will be rainy and humid, and firearms will not be able to exert their maximum power.

Xie Ding frowned and said: "War without declaring it, the enemy is unknown, the Song and Jin countries don't even want to lose face?"

The name is correct, it seems useless, but it is actually very important.

Even when the Jin Dynasty went south to attack Song Dynasty, they used Zhang Jue as an excuse to accuse Zhao Song of not abiding by the alliance, and at the same time sent envoys to submit a declaration of war.

In future generations, when the United States bullies a certain country, it must first define it as a terrorist and occupy the moral high ground.

From this point, we can see the importance of being honest.

Shi Wenhui sneered and said: "This is the idea of ​​​​quick victory. After quickly destroying our Qi Dynasty, we will unite with the historians of the Three Kingdoms and designate our Qi Dynasty as Zhong Xiang and Fang La. Naturally, we will become famous for countering the rebellion. "

"wishful thinking!"

Zhang Shuye scolded angrily.

Han Zhen pressed his hands together and said loudly: "The military situation is urgent, and now is not the time to dwell on this matter. I intend to take the lead in the expedition myself and strike first!"

Such is his character that he always takes the initiative no matter where he is.

Strike first and control others later.

As a result, Han Zhen also likes to take risks when using his troops. He is as fast as the wind and invades like fire. He uses combinations of punches one after another and will not give the opponent the slightest chance to breathe until he completely wins the war.
