Compete for the Song Dynasty

In Zhao Zhongzhen's eyes, his father Song Yingzong Zhao Shu is a serious but loving father.The father's filial piety is comparable to others. Many people don't understand the turmoil that Zhao Shu caused in Pu after the death of Emperor Renzong. Way.Although Zhong Zhen doesn't quite agree with his father's way, Zhong Zhen is a filial child just like his father.This is why Song Yingzong Zhao Shu loves Zhao Zhongzhen the most among his children.

As for what his father did after he came to the throne, especially wanting to reform the long-standing abuses, Zhong Zhen was worried about his good friend Wang Pang, but also understood his father.Because what he saw was a father who wanted to change the status quo, but his national strength was weak and he was depressed and sick.

Now, his father summoned him, and when he talked about appeasing the king, Zhong Zhen was both worried and happy.The worry is that Zhong Zhen regards Wang Pang as his elder brother. The younger brothers have been close friends for so many years. Now that Wang Pang is not in Song Dynasty, such a change in the family makes Zhong Zhen, who is a prince and buddy, very sad; happy The reason is that the father finally regards himself as an adult, no longer pointing to himself like a child, but discussing with himself to let him do things.

Seeing that his father was frowning, Zhong Zhen decided to speak out his thoughts: "Father, I don't know if I should say a few words or not."

Song Yingzong Zhao Shu looked at his sixteen or seventeen-year-old eldest son in front of him. This child is now an adult, his delicate facial features have lost their childishness, his body is slightly thin but straight, and his gestures reveal the elegance and nobility of the royal family.The more Zhao Shu watched it, the more he liked it. Hearing that Zhong Zhen had something to say, Zhao Shu nodded. [

Zhao Zhongzhen's heart was pounding, this was the first time he had spoken to his father, he straightened his mind and looked up at his father on the throne, respectfully said: "Father, Wang Shilang's family has suffered a catastrophe, This is something no one wants to happen. The ministers know why the father is worried, but the father does not know how to express the court's love for the ministers. Especially for ministers like Wang Shilang who have made great contributions in foreign wars."

Knowing a father is like a son, Zhao Shu couldn't help but nodded, the child has grown up, these few words are really appropriate.

"It is my wish to relieve my father's worries. I am willing to go to investigate the fire in Wang Shilang's mansion and do a good job of comforting him. However, I have one more thing to ask my father: my father is currently confiscating and annexing the state treasury. The land and business of many large private households, I believe that if there is any violation of discipline, it must be strictly investigated. Wang Shilang’s Meyer Mansion is indeed suspected of buying land at a low price, and I am inconvenient to say more. But I heard that the father wants to close the king The servant's tea farm, I think it's really impossible. After all, when the first emperor discussed this matter, the father also participated in the discussion and asked Wang Shilang to issue a military order. The tea farm should also guarantee the tea profits of the treasury. If the father goes back on this matter, it is unavoidable It's going to be a joke."

Zhao Shu listened carefully to Zhong Zhen's words, these words were indeed true, he frowned silently and meditated.Zhao Zhongzhen looked at it, and his father was not angry when he listened carefully to his words, he was a little relieved: "Father, you are the king of a country, if you cut off all the wealth of Wang Shilang, who is good at managing money in the future, who will pay you back?" He will do things more for the sake of the royal family. And I think that if you want to appease Wang Shilang, you should make him feel that he can still do things for the court as much as possible. Besides, the accumulated evils are not only about reducing expenditures, but also needing to increase revenue. Solving the treasury problem is not just to eliminate the accumulated evils, Only a stronger country can face the enemy Xixia and Liao."

"Zhong Zhen, which teacher taught you these words?" Zhao Shu's tone was very kind, and he suddenly found that Zhong Zhen had not only grown up, but also gained his own insights.

Zhao Shu was even happier when he saw his father not blaming him at all. He smiled and replied, "Father, this is not taught by any teacher. I recently met a man who is Wang Shilang's friend. He told me, Wang Shilang The servant reminded him to study carefully the relationship and terrain of Xixia and Tubo, in order to prepare for our Great Song Dynasty to resist Xixia in the future, and we are preparing a plan to dedicate it to the father."

"Oh?" Zhao Shu raised his brows a little bit, he didn't expect Wang Pang to have such a heart, and there are such loyal people in the world.

"Father, the person I'm talking about is Wang Shao, who was a Jinshi in the second year of Jiayou. He has been traveling around the border for the past few years, and now he has returned to the capital. My son thinks that maybe my father has always thought that Wang Pang is too greedy for money and good for power. , but Wang Pang has always been concerned about the Song Dynasty. I hope that the father will no longer discuss the matter of merging the tea farm, which is probably the best comfort for Wang Shilang." Zhao Zhongzhen said cautiously.

Zhao Shu sighed softly. He recalled how he had been thinking about the throne all the way. In the end, there were not many people around him who were really capable of helping him; and in front of him, his son Zhao Zhongzhen, who was young, had a king next to him. , Wang Shao, Su Shi, and a generation of talented young talents.Perhaps this is also good, the throne in the future will belong to this son, let him slowly accumulate popularity.

"Go ahead and do it. Allocate some money to renovate Wang Shilang's mansion. It can also be regarded as the imperial court's compensation for the ministers who are fighting abroad. As for the tea plantation, my father promised you. Since you think this person can help you, you should make good use of it." This person."

After Zhao Zhongzhen thanked his father, he finally breathed a sigh of relief, maybe he has done his best for the elder brother in his heart.

After Zhao Zhongzhen left, Zhao Shu pondered Zhao Zhongzhen's words over and over again. Sometimes Zhao Shu often remembered that he saw himself dying on the throne dragon bed. This kind of worry was no longer as entangled as it was at the beginning. Take the time to do something for your children and grandchildren.

Emperor Yingzong Zhao Shu summoned Wang Shao and ordered Wang Shao to be stationed at Huanqing Road under the jurisdiction of Maqian, who specialized in managing the affairs of this road and Yanyan Road. He was stationed in Qingzhou (now Qingyang, Gansu). Li Ruoyu was stationed at Jingyuan Road. Bobing Maqian is under the jurisdiction of Bo Bing and Ma Qian, who are responsible for the affairs of the Fan Ministry on this road and Qinfeng Road. They are stationed in Weizhou (now Pingliang, Gansu). Discuss with the generals of the same route, and report to the imperial court on major matters, and be responsible for uniting the strong men and horses of the Fan tribe, so that when the Xixia army attacks, the elderly and children of the Fan tribe can have a place to stay.

After Wang Shao and others took office, they immediately summoned the chiefs of the Fan tribe, appeased and rewarded them in the name of Song Yingzong, and rewarded them with many gold and silver treasures, so as to further count the number of castles, soldiers and horses of the Fan tribe, according to the size of each tribe, Divide it into several parts, and issue flags to each part, so that they can repair their own castles.

Prior to this, a large number of people from the Fan tribe fled to Xixia. On the one hand, it was due to the excessive expropriation by the border officials of the Song Dynasty, and on the other hand, it was because of the temptation of Xixia.So far, the number of fugitives from the Fan tribe has gradually decreased, and the people of the Fan tribe have become more and more interested in the Song Dynasty.

In the matter of governing the Tibetan tribe, Zhao Zhongzhen made meritorious deeds, knowing people and making good use of them.Yingzong had more confidence in Zhao Zhongzhen, and named Zhao Zhongzhen the King of Ying.

When Wang Shao ruled the tribe, Wang Pang had already led a team to land in Nagasaki, the native land of the Japanese slaves. The [-] troops joined Nong Jifeng's troops and charged towards Pinganjing, the capital of the Japanese slaves, like a storm.At this time, Wanyan and Libo also landed from the northernmost point of the Japanese slaves and went to Ping'anjing.

The Japanese slaves lingered on to resist the Japanese army. In the end, the Japanese slaves panicked, the regent Fujiwara Yorimichi panicked, and even Emperor Lengquan of the Japanese slaves panicked.

The Japanese army was approaching the city, and nearly [-] troops surrounded Ping'an capital. The Japanese slaves had no reinforcements, and an isolated city stood in front of the king. [

War is a crazy killing game. Along the way, Wang saw the Koreans who were crazy and revenged, killing the excited Liao army and Song army.The Japanese slaves did not resist and wanted to be killed, but if the Japanese slaves resisted a little, they wanted to be killed even more. The numb Japanese army was killed, and a large amount of property that had been looted by the Japanese slaves was seized.

Outside the city of Ping'an capital, the Japanese warriors shouted to wash Ping'an capital with blood echoing in the valley. The Japanese slave soldiers on the top of the city were already trembling with fright amidst the beating of war drums. Everyone knew that they rushed in to wash the city with blood. , killed the Emperor.There will be no more Japanese slave countries.But Wang Pang stood in front of the Japanese army outside the city, looking at the city in a trance.

The beginning of Ping'an Jing's establishment coincided with China's prosperous Tang Dynasty, and the Tang Dynasty had close contacts with the Japanese slaves.The architecture of Wonu Kyoto is similar to that of Luoyang City and Chang'an City in China's Tang Dynasty.If you don't say that you are in Wonu, who would not say that the city in front of you is the city of the Han people?

And the bloodbath along the way, Wang Pang suddenly felt that the game of war released the cruelty of all human beings, no matter whether he was old or young, whether he had weapons or whether he could resist.Only by burning, killing and looting can the enemy be completely scared, and the enemy can be completely defeated from the will.

Wang Bang also knew that if he went one step further, the Japanese army could completely occupy the Japanese slaves, but why did they come here?Song and Liao jointly carried the banner of resisting the Japanese and saving Goryeo, and in the end, like the Japanese slaves conquering Goryeo, bloodbathed every corner of the weak country.Will the Japanese slave give in at this point?Who will lead the Japanese slaves?Who can guarantee that there will be no more wars, no more resistance?

No matter what you do, in the face of history, as long as you do it, there is no right or wrong!Wang Pang ordered: stop the siege!

Everyone was shocked, Wang Shilang?Why stop?

Wang Pang pointed to the white flag waving above the city: "What we want is this flag. Is it possible that the three-nation coalition forces will divide up the territory occupied by the Japanese slaves? Who will pay for our food and grass consumption? Who will pay for our soldiers? You Who stays here to watch the Japanese slaves who will rebel at any time?"

"Wang Shilang, we listen to you!" Everyone said in unison.

Wang Pang returned to the tent of the Chinese army. Now that the white flag was raised, the final peace talks were short of time. Sure enough, as Wang Pang expected: the regent of the Wa Nu Kingdom brought several guards and came out of the city to negotiate peace.

"First, re-plan the sea area. The south of Kyushu Island is the land of Song Dynasty; the south of Hokkaido Island is the land of Liao; second, the Japanese slaves should pay tribute to the Song and Liao countries and pay tribute every year; third, recognize the Japanese slaves It is the defeated country, and compensates for the loss of the invasion of Korea." Wang Pang explained his conditions.
