I am Da Song

Chapter 113
After Zhao Huan was young and frivolous for a while, at night he regained the official mentality of the Song Dynasty and began to deal with the successive government affairs.

As Zhao Huan's direct descendant, Yue Fei was the first to meet him.Report to Zhao Huanhui: "Officials, after two days, Shenwu Youjun has broken through the camp of the West Route Army."

Zhao Huan was very interested and asked, "How about the capture?"

"The entire army beheaded more than [-] Jinren, and captured more than [-] people. They also received deposits for more than [-] wounded soldiers in the camp."

"The Jin army lost more than [-] people, plus the wounded soldiers, the West Route Army was almost defeated." Zhao Huan smiled all over his face.

Yue Fei agreed with this very much, and said: "There should be only about 3 people from the Jinren West Route Army who can return to China, and the main force is more than [-] people from Wanyan Loushi's subordinate. This person can be called a generation. Big trouble."

"It doesn't matter." Zhao Huan said with a smile: "It has only been more than ten years since the Jurchens raised their troops, and the north has not yet been reorganized. Previously, relying on repeated battles and victories, domestic conflicts were suppressed. Now, the Jin army has suffered a disastrous defeat under the city of Tokyo, and the country is bound to erupt. There is a lot of chaos. The main energy of the Jurchens must be used to rectify the situation and absorb and digest the newly conquered Liao Kingdom. In about two or three years, the Jin army will not invade the south."

At least, Zhao Huan felt that Jin Taizong Wanyan Sheng would definitely take this opportunity to attack the Prime Minister Nianhan.How could the emperor's slap be beaten for nothing by the prime minister?

And after two or three years, let's not care about the situation in Song Dynasty.I'm afraid that the inside of the Kingdom of Jin will have their brains blown out. Whether Wanyan Loushi can survive two or three years is still a question.

Seeing that the officials were calm and composed, Yue Fei stopped commenting on the Jurchens and asked, "Then how should these prisoners be dealt with?"

Zhao Huan raised his brows in high spirits: "Let the Kaifeng government send people to interrogate one by one. Those who have committed the most heinous crimes will be dragged out and treated as war criminals together with Wanyan Yinshu, and they will be punished according to the law. I will personally imprison and punish the criminals in front of millions of Tokyo soldiers and civilians." These thugs who violated my homeland and raped my women will all be sentenced to death."

The Song Dynasty was not short of gold and silver treasures, and Zhao Huan had no plans to negotiate with the Kingdom of Jin and sell prisoners of war.

Therefore, these people, Zhao Huan must be executed in front of the soldiers and civilians in Tokyo, to cheer up the soldiers and civilians in Tokyo, and to avenge their hatred.

There is no better way to win people's hearts than this, and to boost the spirit and morale of the soldiers and people of the Song Dynasty.

As long as the soldiers and civilians of the Song Dynasty are generous and support Zhao Huan, the so-called internal and external troubles are not worth mentioning.

Hearing this, Yue Fei also looked uplifted, feeling happy and dripping, and said: "This generation should be like this, not killing is not enough to thank the world."

"Except for these heinous crimes. Everyone else is handed over to Zuoxiang. The current top priority of Zuoxiang Mei Zhili is to rebuild the imperial capital. Dredging the river and reopening the canal will require a lot of labor. Tens of thousands of wounded soldiers and prisoners, It’s all important labor.”

These people need to work hard all their lives, exposed to the wind and the sun, and work hard with blood and sweat to atone for the crimes they have committed.

After talking about the prisoners of war, Yue Fei continued to report: "In addition, the Shenwu Youjun captured more than [-] horses in the Jin Army camp."

Looking at Yue Fei who looked expectant, Zhao Huan waved his hand and said: "Except for the [-] war horses of our court captured by the Jinren at the Tokyo Racecourse before, the rest will be dispatched by the Qing, and the Shenwu Youjun can form a team." The cavalry unit is here, and I will give it the name Beiwei Army."

Yue Fei was overjoyed, and immediately cupped his hands, and thanked him: "Xixi Gufeng, Weishan Cuiwei. No grass will never die, no tree will never wither. I must train a team for the officials. The talents must be healthy and sick, and Li Meilun, etc., can do good. Shoot, the omnipotent cavalry."

Zhao Huan nodded with a smile, convinced of Yue Fei's guarantee.

And after detaining [-] war horses, Zhao Huan did not intend to return them to the Left and Right Qiji Yuan.

After all, the horse administration of the Song Dynasty is rotten to the root.It belongs to the object of group ridicule in later dynasties. Even in the Qing Dynasty, the imperial powers were all giant steel ships, and the ministers of the Qing Dynasty would whip out the Song Dynasty horse administration from time to time.

Regarding the legend that there were no horses in the Song Dynasty, this is probably just some people's whitewashing and wishful thinking.

In fact, including the Song Dynasty itself, it directly satirized its own horse administration, instead of evading and saying that it had no horses.

Wen Yanbo, the most famous privy envoy in the Song Dynasty, and Li Gang, the famous minister of Jingkang, were both outspoken.There were even 560 stallions used for breeding, 310 five stallions were bred to death, and 27 foals were bred.

The point is that the worse the officials of the Song Dynasty made the Ma Zheng, the more they had the excuse to make money, and they used the Ma Zheng to make money regardless of the cost.For example, it spends sky-high prices every year to import war horses from the southern country Dali.

Dali is already in the subtropical zone, and it is almost going to the tropics, and it can raise horses and sell them to Song Dynasty.

The shamelessness of these Song Dynasty scholar-bureaucrats simply broke through the bottom line of human beings.

As far as the current situation is concerned, Zhao Huan will continue to hand over the war horses to the horse officials. Before next year, the [-] war horses will only have four to five thousand horses left. Available, then go to Dali and Tubo to buy war horses.

Regarding the raising of war horses, Zhao Huan had a preliminary plan and said to Yue Fei: "In addition to supporting the Wei army, I also plan to reset the Jingsai cavalry. Set up a pastoral area to supply war horses for the cavalry."

"I can understand the establishment of a pastoral area. Every horse government must set up pastures based on the benefits of water and grass. The Han Dynasty has the six pastors of the border county, and our dynasty has the pastoral supervisors of each state. But it is a cavalry force that specializes in supplying war horses. I don’t know what the officials plan. How to implement it?" Yue Fei asked cautiously.

Zhao Huan took Yue Fei to the front of the map of the Song Dynasty, and explained to Yue Fei, "I plan to use soldiers on the two rivers, and then set up pastures on the two rivers. Among them, the Hedong pasture will provide horses for the Beiwei army, and the Hebei pasture will be Jingsai. Iron cavalry provides war horses."

Then Zhao Huan clenched his fist and hammered Lianghe Land on the map, and said: "The two ranches are not under the control of each other, and each performs its own duties. The war horses will never communicate with each other. Every year, the censor will check the results of the horse herding."

Yue Fei nodded slightly, and asked cautiously: "If this is the case, it seems that there is not much difference from the operation of the Taipu Temple and other horse administrations?"

"That's right. The key lies in the next step. I plan to hand over the monitoring power to the cavalry. The cavalry can reject the bad horses provided by the ranch."

Yue Fei's eyes lit up, after all, the war horse is related to the combat power of the cavalry, and it is related to the life and death of the cavalry soldiers.Therefore, the cavalry generals must be the most concerned about the ranch horses.

"If the cavalry has some supervisory power, in order to maintain combat power, at least it can ensure that the supervisor will not be too corrupt." Yue Fei agreed.

Zhao Huan nodded, that's right, this measure, even if it is not good, can guarantee a certain lower limit, so that Ma Zheng will not be too bad.At least at least it must be able to maintain a certain combat power of the cavalry.

And as far as Zhao Huan knew, although the Song Mazheng was dead, the Beiwei Army had maintained excellent condition during the years of battle.In the history of the Yue family's army, the situation of raising horses by themselves is obviously countless times better than that of the imperial court.

This is only the first step, giving the soldiers the power to reject bad horses.This is the beginning of the foundation of this vast reform.
