I became the son of Renzong

Chapter 561 Han Qi's approach is very smelly

The officials stayed in Taiyuan Mansion, and the ministers thought that they would arrive at the same time according to the time when Yelu Hongji of the Northern Liao Dynasty arrived in Hongzhou.

The result is not.

The exploration team is not alone, and there are even military soldiers responsible for security.Therefore, the news that the exploration team had confirmed the fruitful results quickly spread among the accompanying ministers.

There are still considerable reserves of gold, silver, copper, iron and aluminum, which can almost be called auspicious!

Zhao Xi was very surprised by the conventions of this era.The underground resources do not belong to the imperial court or the royal family, but to those who discovered them first.

In other words, even if a farmer accidentally dug up coal, the imperial court has no right to take it as state-owned.

Even court officials who find resources outside their official duties belong only to their family, not to the court.

There's no way to explain the reasoning, even if Zhao Xi doesn't understand it, that's the only way to go.If Zhao Xi ordered that all the products of the world should be returned to the imperial court, everyone in the world would oppose him except him.

Fortunately, as long as it is official exploration, resource production belongs to the imperial court.

But such a big interest in Hedong Road...~ The accompanying officials no longer considered any negotiations.

When the Beiliao Emperor arrived at Bahrain Left Banner, the officials also got up from Taiyuan Mansion and headed north.

Su Song returned to the team and became an accompanying official.At the same time, the entire exploration team was arranged in a separate carriage, guarded by the soldiers of the guard battalion, and they were never seen.

Let the accompanying officials feel itchy!

"As for that?"

Wang Anshi couldn't see the faces of those accompanying officials, because they no longer concealed their greed.

"The officials select their entourage, and leave those who are willing to do something to stay in the court. To put it bluntly, this group of people is dispensable to the court!"

Fu Bi also felt that it was a bit too much.

Of course, the reason why they have the right to look down on those people is because, no matter what method the imperial court adopts in the end, their interests will not be lost... It's a bit malicious, but that's actually what happened.

From the manganese ore on Guangnan West Road, the copper-iron mine in Dongchuan, to the carboniferous mine in Huaizhou on Hebei East Road, the industries once promoted by the government have made considerable profits in the past few years.

Especially since the start of the war on Hedong Road, although the court has almost reached the point where it has to live without food, at the end of last year, Zhao Qin, the spokesperson of the royal family, distributed quite astonishing profits to the courtiers.

Because of the war, the armament manufacturing workshops in the workshop city became busy, which also increased the demand for various resources, which naturally produced considerable profits.

This is also the reason why the courtiers did not have much objection when the court assumed the stance of fighting to the end.

Fu Bi always felt that the officials seemed to be guiding the imperial court's ambition and belligerence.

There are not many things that can guide people's direction more than interests, and civil servants are no exception.

Zhao Xi really had this purpose, so he didn't stop Su Song's exploration team from disclosing the news, and he even instructed to further expand the news to the local state capitals, as well as the waste forbidden army groups that had already reached the East Road.

"I always thought that Saibei was desolate, full of gravel, desert, and barren hills. I didn't expect that the area around Yunzhou is also a place with rich water and grass."

After passing the Yanmen Pass, the track has not been laid yet, and only the ceremonial guards of the king can be restored.However, Zhao Xi did not use chariots, but rode chariots... No matter how difficult the road was, it was not a problem for the army. How could such a sharp weapon as a chariot be no match for Yanmen.

"The Northern Wei Dynasty Li Daoyuan's "Shui Jing Zhu" said in the "Yunzhong County Chronicles": dripping green and flowing clouds, the plains of Sichuan are charming. The grass is lush on the slopes, dotted with flocks of sheep.... It is fragrant and lush. It can be cold. 600 years , the vicissitudes of life have lost their old appearance."

Hearing Wang Anshi's sour words, Zhao Xi seemed to recall this passage.

The Sanggan River, the Hun River, and the Yu River in the Datong Basin nourish this basin. How could it be a desert?
Since ancient times, the Datong Basin area has not been dominated by farming, and has been occupied by nomadic peoples for a much longer time than farming peoples.

It is also because of the customs of the nomads that this basin can still maintain a state of abundance of aquatic plants.

Is it right or wrong for Song people who are accustomed to farming to move northward by tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands?Zhao Xi was in a daze.

It can be concluded that as long as the Datong Basin becomes a living area dominated by Han people, all the forests and pastures he sees will become farmland... The Han people's obsession with farmland is almost to the point of exhaustion.

Think about the pleasing terraced fields on the lofty mountains of later generations, and you can deeply understand what is going on with the Han people and farming.

Plains like the Datong Basin...~
"How much is Dingkou in the four prefectures of Yunying?"

"Returning to Your Majesty, there are a total of more than 57 Dingkou in the four prefectures, most of which are concentrated around the city walls of the prefectures. The Han Linya Army is [-], and it belongs to the garrison of Northern Liao and Xijing..."

After the official family passed Yanmen, Han Qi returned.From this moment, his identity has become a member of the Zhongshu sect, and he is no longer the chief negotiator for the Liao Dynasty.

Everything that needs to be discussed has been negotiated, and the kings of both parties are left to sign.

"Have you settled on the exchange of prisoners?"

Negotiations on other terms were relatively smooth, except for the exchange of prisoners, the two sides were deadlocked.

Before leaving Bianliang, Han Qi's report said that no agreement had been reached.

The court was not worried about this.It is impossible for Beiliao to let Da Song deal with the nearly 100 captives. Beiliao claims to have 200 million string-controlling warriors. He may not care about the [-], but they have to consider the mood of the [-] million warriors.

"One palace guard is exchanged for one war horse, three Wu Guduo are one horse, and Lin Ya is one ten men. The veteran has counted the prisoners, and the real Beiliao palace guards are less than [-]. The rest are soldiers, more like soldiers. Civil husband..."

Han Qi's faults can't be changed, even if the reward for winning the battle is over, he still has to beat around the bush and reduce the credit for this battle... After all, this is a battle dominated by pure generals.

It didn't say clearly that the Battle of Hedong was an act of meritorious service, but he doubted the officers and men of Hedong Road both inside and outside.

It's okay for Di Qing to say, let's not talk about the fear of Han Qi, just talk about his current status...he is re-employment, and there are not many entanglements.

But Guo Kui and Chong E were very upset, their faces were flushed, and they couldn't speak... They knew that once they spoke, all the civil servants would spray them unanimously.

In fact, before the negotiations were basically completed and the government went north, Han Qi used various reasons to kill all the surrenders who had governed the four prefectures of Yunying during this period, causing several civil disturbances...

Describing the prisoner as a civilian husband can explain the cause of the civil unrest to a certain extent, rather than his improper governance.

"Beiliao agreed to exchange captives with an additional condition, that is, the country should not restrict the people of the Yunying four prefectures to leave... The old minister thought it was all right..."

Zhao Xi already understood Han Qi's two sentences before and after.

It cannot be said that it was wrong to kill these surrenders, but that Han Qi acted too hastily, and the method he adopted was inappropriate.

He thought that killing a chicken would be enough to wait, but he didn't know that there was a saying that the rabbit died and the fox was sad.

Han Qi doesn't care about running the army or managing the government, it seems that there is no other way but to kill or kill.

It has to be said that Han Qi's measures in the four states of Yunying, whether it is dealing with surrenders, appeasing the hearts of the people, or shirking responsibility, are very bad.
