Chapter 387 Song Zhezong: I must fight Xixia!

The period of Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty
Liu Bingyi had a splitting headache after seeing this.

Shao means to introduce or inherit.

Sheng refers to his father, Emperor Shenzong of Song.

Using Shaosheng as the reign title meant that the emperor who was in power announced it to the world.

He will take over the unfinished reform work of Emperor Shenzong and implement new policies.

Liu Bingyi sighed.

Xu Pingjun also sighed.

Reform, anti-reform, and restoration of reform.

You guys are so troublesome...

Moreover, why does this "never use it again" look so familiar?
……

Han Dynasty Lingdi Period
Liu Hong sat on the throne and pretended to be dead.

Things like party imprisonment... are normal, right?

Liu Bei, wearing the Jinxian crown, sighed as he looked at it:
"The Song Dynasty is like traveling on a boat."

"The boat is biased, either to the left or to the right. If it is biased to one side, how long can it sail?"

Cao Cao, who was wearing a military cap, nodded and agreed:

"Xuan De is right. In governing a country, one should not be too rigid, but should strike a balance between the left and the right and walk the middle path."

"The Song Dynasty has lost its way, and those at the helm are powerless."

Liu Hong above rolled his eyes.

I'm just annoyed by your way of speaking in a veiled way!

"Hahahaha! My Lords! The Song Dynasty really loves to cede land. The Emperor loves to cede land, and the ministers love to cede land too!"

"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha……"

Feeling the gazes of everyone looking at him as a fool, Liu Hong shut up.

……

[During the Shaoshu period, Song Zhezong, with the new party led by Zhang Dun, the left prime minister, Cai Bian, the right chancellor, and Zeng Bu, the head of the Privy Council, successively restored the exemption from military service, the Baojia system, the Qingmiao system, and the Shiyi system.]

[At the same time, the relevant laws and regulations on the Green Seedlings Law, the Exemption from Military Service Law, the Farmland Irrigation Law, and the Baojia Law were compiled into a book, named "The Imperial Decree on Changping and Exemption from Military Service", and promulgated throughout the country.]

[The new laws were basically implemented according to the model of the Xifeng period, but adjustments were made to the specific details to overcome the drawbacks of the Xifeng new laws.]

……

Great Sui.

Yang Jian looked at the sky, his face looking like he was neither crying nor laughing.

Dugu Jialuo on the side said with concern:
"Then Luo Yan...what's wrong with you?"

Yang Jian held the Queen's hand and said with some bitterness:
"Jia Luo, do you think the emperors of these dynasties can toss around?"

Dugu Jialuo nodded.

Yang Jian's face became even more bitter.

"They have gone through so much trouble but their country has not been destroyed."

"That beast..."

The Sui Dynasty was sent away in one go!
Dugu Jialuo could not refute, and could only pat his hand and comfort him:

"Okay, he won't be the one to take the throne in the future."

"Don't worry about it anymore."

Yang Jian looked at the young Shi Min who was blowing bubbles from his mouth.

I felt a little more at ease.

……

Datang.

Sitting slightly sideways, Li Shimin became somewhat interested.

This kid is quite like his father.

Wang Anshi's new laws were still good. If those drawbacks had been eliminated, the Song Dynasty might have really lasted for three hundred years.

But what about the reward from Emperor Shenzong?

Li Shimin twirled his beard and calculated.

During the reign of Emperor Zhezong, the Yuanyou Reform was a turmoil, and the Shaosheng and Shaoshu Reforms were another turmoil.

Both incidents affected the people, but if the emperor had been in power longer and there had been no third incident, there would have been no third incident.

Then the Song Dynasty would be able to break free from its cage, but if there was a third reform movement or the king died early and the successor king made trouble again.

It would be strange if the Song Dynasty did not perish.

"Alas... your Song Dynasty is really hard to understand."

……

【Since Song Zhezong Zhao Xu took power, he changed the policy of tolerance and appeasement during the reign of Empress Dowager Gao.】

[The hardliners Lü Huiqing and Sun Lu, and the military generals Wang Wenyu and Zhang Yu were appointed as the governors of Fuyan Road, Hedong Road, Xihe Road, and Jingyuan Road respectively, forming an encirclement of Western Xia.]

[In the court, Zeng Bu, who was known for his knowledge of military affairs and his ability to use them, was appointed as the Privy Councilor, who was fully responsible for the deployment of the Song army and diplomatic work.]

【If it is said that Emperor Wu of Han's life goal was to defeat the Xiongnu. 】

【Then Song Zhezong's life goal was to conquer Xixia. 】

……

The period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty
Liu Che was slightly stunned, then became interested.

After being cowardly for nearly a hundred years, a tough emperor finally came? ! "That's right, it was wrong for the Xixia envoy to point at my nose and scold my father."

"How can we not remember such a great humiliation?"

"Just fuck him!"

Liu Che was very satisfied, but also very worried.

It is a good thing that the emperor has a strong determination to defend the border.

But your generals and soldiers are very unreliable.

Okay ah?

Don't let others push you back and force a draw again.

……

Great Song.

Zhao Kuangyin, who was beating Zhao Er, suddenly looked up.

This... Is the Zhao family going to have a promising future? !
Someone wants to avenge himself!
……

Song Taizong period
Zhao Kuangyi sat down and stood up again.

The whole person is in a state of restlessness.

Child, can you do it?

Don’t send it anymore!

It would be better to sort out the internal affairs first.

……

During the Song Dynasty and Renzong Period
Zhao Zhen's eyes were filled with anticipation.

Good boy, don't lose face!
……

On the canopy.

The handsome emperor leaned against the wide dragon throne, gazing at the map of the territory spread out on the ground.

Looking at the border between Song and Xia.

He recalled the scene when Western Xia came to pay tribute.

"Shenzong...knows he is wrong..."

Zhao Xu's eyes were dim, and he said softly:

"Mr. Zhang, we can stop paying tribute to Xixia now."

"The Battle of Hongde City was the Song Dynasty's apology to Zhang Yu."

"This time, I will live up to your expectations!"

The camera moves away from the Funing Palace and goes straight up to the clouds.

The scene flies westward from Bianjing.

Across mountains, rivers, grasslands and lakes.

Finally, they stopped at a city on a hillside.

Outside the city, endless circles of troops were besieging the high city.

The army outside the city.

Two soldiers in leather armor leaned against the camp chevaux de frise.

One of them took off his helmet and scratched his bald head.

Looking at the tall city wall, he said helplessly:

"How long have we been around?"

Another soldier held a grass root in his mouth and said weakly:

"More than four months."

The bald soldier scratched his scalp, his face full of annoyance.

"These Song people have been hiding in the city and won't come out. Are we going to surround them here forever?"

The soldier holding a grass root in his mouth glanced at him sideways.

"Who wants to be surrounded like this? If you are dissatisfied, go and tell the Queen Mother."

The bald soldier kicked the sand next to him.

"Didn't they say that the little emperor was weak? He even vomited out the land he ate. How come he has become so tough now?"

Just as the soldier holding the grass root in his mouth was about to reply, a gong sounded loudly in the camp!
The two looked back in shock.

Call off the troops? !
……

[In May 1096, Xixia claimed that it would send envoys to pay tribute and pledge oaths, while at the same time sending troops to invade Fuyan Road.]

[Lu Huiqing, the governor of Fuyan Road, sent troops to repel the invading Xixia army fourteen times between June and July.]

[In September of the same year, Queen Mother Liang of Western Xia led an army of 500,000 and invaded in three directions, advancing as far as five miles north of Yan'an.]

[But what the Xixia people never expected was that after 500,000 people besieged Yan'an, which had only 20,000 garrisons for four months, they not only failed to break through the city.]

[The Song army in Xihe, Jingyuan, Hedong and other routes also took advantage of the opportunity when the Xia army was dispatched to Fuyan and the internal defense was empty to attack and occupy a large area of ​​Xixia territory. ]

[In February 1097, the -strong Xixia army returned without success.]

[On March 23, the 69-year-old Zhang Yu, the governor of Jingyuan Road, adopted the tactic of setting up camps and fortifications to penetrate deep into the Xixia territory]

[It involved nearly 200,000 soldiers and civilians, thousands of vehicles, and 16,000 animals, and lasted 22 days.]

[A city was built hastily on the Meiyan Gorge plateau outside the Shimen Gorge.]

[After the border city was built, Song Zhezong named it "Pingxia City", which means "determined to pacify Xixia". ]
