This prince is so sinister

Chapter 54
However, in the 16th year of Zhenguan in the prosperous Tang Dynasty, the population of the prosperous Tang Dynasty was only 600 million, but the current population of the Northern Song Dynasty is close to 7000 million, and it will reach 600 million in the near future.

In the prosperous Tang Dynasty, the annual income of Zhenguan was only 3000 million guan, but in the Northern Song Dynasty, the annual income was more than 6000 million guan, and the highest was [-] million guan. Later, the annual income of Jin Guo even reached [-] million guan.

The prime minister of the Song Dynasty had 800 taels of silver in salary alone, so a prime minister only had a few 10 taels of silver in his family, but it was all cleared, which was equivalent to 500 million taels of annual salary for future generations.

Besides, the prime minister has been an official for decades, and it would be abnormal if his family did not save several million taels of silver. Therefore, it is not a big deal for the privy envoy to spend a few million taels to buy a mirror.

Because the old man has been a privy envoy for more than ten years, and he has 30 soldiers and horses under him. He falsely reports military expenses every year and consumes more than half of the treasury. Obviously, 600 million taels is nothing at all.

People in the later generations only know the prosperous Tang Dynasty, but they never know that the Northern Song Dynasty was the most prosperous era, but under the advocacy of literature and restraint of martial arts, it was at a disadvantage militarily.

And even the annual income of the county magistrate of Bao Zhengduan County is 80 taels, which is equivalent to the annual salary of 150 for later generations, but a monthly income of one tael can be said to be a surplus family, enough to feed a family up.

It can be said that the people in the Northern Song Dynasty are rich, and all the officials are rich, but the treasury is short-lived. Even if the annual income is more than [-] million taels of silver, some people in later generations may be shocked that the privy envoys of the Northern Song Dynasty would spend millions of taels of silver to buy mirrors. rich.

In the future, the so-called bank notes Jiaozi can be described as the earliest paper money in the world, which was issued by the Empress Dowager Liu Mo.

Obviously, even though Cao Lili wanted to buy Huangcheng Secretary, he still didn't pay attention to Huangcheng Secretary, and his biggest opponent was Prime Minister Wang Yanjun.

Because the Huangcheng Division has no more than tens of thousands of people at most, but they don't know that in just over half a month, the Huangcheng Division has already recruited another [-] young and strong from poor families, but Song Dynasty has never been short of people.

Especially for the soldiers of the Song Dynasty, even a low-income monthly salary of [-] Wen is enough to support a family. It can be said that the income is exactly the same as that of American soldiers in later generations.

And because of the shortage of money, only 2 people were recruited, and because the expansion was too fast, even the privy envoy Cao Yong and the prime minister Wang Yanyu didn't know about it.

Even if the two knew about it, they could only watch helplessly under mutual restraint, because it was the Imperial City Secretary of the Song Dynasty who recruited troops, and it was not under the control of the privy envoy or prime minister at all, but directly under the Emperor of the Song Dynasty.

And Zhao Zhi also set up a salary increase table, that is, after three months, the salary will be increased by [-] yuan, and it will be increased again after half a year, and it will also be increased after one year, giving hope to the newly recruited imperial city guards.

There is also the most critical point, which was also stimulated by a letter from the Queen Mother Liu Mo. Zhao Zhi thought about it when he couldn't sleep at night. Obviously, the infrastructure construction of the Imperial City Guard is almost done.

But the ideological education hadn't started yet, and it was obviously not enough to just buy people's hearts, so at night Zhao Zhi couldn't sleep because of his excitement, so he "made up" a military song for the Imperial City Guard and the future Song army!
Simply get up the next day and rest for a day, and just learn to sing the "Military Song" of the Song Dynasty. People who can write will write out countless copies first, and then distribute them. Afterwards, they will sing it every day before eating.

As a result, Empress Dowager Liu Mo went to court in the morning, and hurriedly processed the memorials around noon, and finally squeezed out time to make snacks by herself in the afternoon.

When Guo Huai brought the snacks to the Imperial City Guard dozens of miles away, he heard the singing of tens of thousands of people in the distance. He couldn't hear clearly at first, but he couldn't help being shocked: "What is Master Zhao doing now?"To make such a movement? '

But when he approached the Imperial City Guard, he could clearly hear the singing of tens of thousands of people one after another.

"The smoke of the wolf rises, and the mountains and rivers look north;
The dragon flag rolls, the horse neighs, and the sword's aura is like frost!

The heart is like the vastness of the Yellow River, who can resist in 20 years?
Crazy with hatred, where the long knife is headed!How many loyal brothers and sisters buried their bones in other places?What a pity to serve the country with a hundred deaths!

I can't bear to sigh, and I am speechless, with blood and tears in my eyes!
Horseshoes go south, people look north;

People look north, the grass is green and yellow, and the dust is flying;
I would like to defend the soil and restore the frontiers, and the majestic dynasty will let the Quartet... come to congratulate"

In an instant, Guo Huai, even an old eunuch, couldn't help but hear his blood boil, his heart was agitated, his eyes were red, and a group of soldiers in front of the Imperial City Guard Palace who followed the palace on duty also couldn't help hearing his blood boil.

But it was the song "Serve the country with loyalty" that Zhao Zhi plagiarized. In later generations, I never felt anything when listening to it, but in the Northern Song Dynasty when the iron horse was fighting, no matter whether it was sung or listened to, it was extremely emotional.

Tens of thousands of people let go of their voices and roared, singing with excitement one by one, and all of them couldn't help singing until their eyes turned red.

Some people even couldn't help crying when they roared. At the same time, Master Zhao of the Imperial City Guard made some braised pork with his own hands. The rich aroma that he had never smelled made everyone sing more vigorously.

And over and over again.

"The smoke of the wolf rises, and the mountains and rivers look north;
The dragon flag rolls, the horse neighs, and the sword's aura is like frost!

The heart is like the vastness of the Yellow River, who can resist in 20 years?
Crazy with hatred, where the long knife is headed!How many loyal brothers and sisters buried their bones in other places?What a pity to serve the country with a hundred deaths!

......"

As a result, when he saw Zhao Zhi, Guo Huai couldn't help the excitement in his heart, and wept with snot and tears: "Master Zhao, I have you in the Song Dynasty, and you will be as stable as a rock from now on, and no one will dare to bully the people of the Song Dynasty." .

On behalf of the emperor, the empress dowager, and the people of the Song Dynasty, the old servant kneels down and kowtows to you. "

Zhao Zhize also didn't expect that just one song would make tens of thousands of people feel as if they had been beaten to death. At the same time, he had copied countless copies and distributed them to the [-] new troops outside, and then divided them into four guards.

If there is a change in Bianjing City, the four guards of the imperial city outside can arrive within half an hour, but it will be more effective than anything to win people's hearts, and it will resonate in the hearts of all warriors.

Zhao Zhi also couldn't help but said happily: "Eunuch Guo, when you get up, I won't help you. I just prepared a few copies, so you can copy them to the palace guards when you go back this time, and ask them to sing it every day before meals."

Guo Huai also couldn't help getting up excitedly and said: "Master Zhao doesn't order, the old servant is also going to ask for a copy for Master Zhao, when the emperor and the queen mother see it, they will definitely like it.

Mr. Zhao, this is a snack made by the Empress Dowager herself for the emperor. Seeing that the emperor couldn't finish it, she ordered the old slave to bring a portion for Mr. Zhao as well. "

While talking, the old man couldn't help but keep moving his nose, and he saw hundreds of cauldrons in front of him, and the so-called "braised pork" seemed to be cooking in the cauldron, which was very fragrant.

Zhao Zhi realized instantly that the empress dowager Liu Mo made something similar for him, so he brought some for the brother to eat.

So he simply pretended not to know: "Then please trouble Eunuch Guo. I just made a piece of braised pork with my own hands, and Eunuch Guo helped to bring it back for the emperor and the empress dowager to taste.

I ordered them to do the outside, and I did the inside of the room with my own hands.Eunuch Guo came with me, and took the lyrics back by the way, and started to sing them to the Forbidden Army of Bianjing City starting tomorrow.

These emperors and empress dowagers can't finish eating, and you can try my master's cooking for the rest of Eunuch Guo. "

Guo Huai immediately said excitedly again: "Thank you, Master Zhao. Master Zhao's song can top a million lions, and even this old slave can't help but feel excited when he hears it."

Zhao Zhi couldn't help but look forward to it, waiting for it to pass into the 30 troops that Cao used.
