I am Da Song

Chapter 236 Rewarding the Song Dynasty

Chapter 236 Rewarding the Song Dynasty
In June, the heavy rain that lasted for many days finally stopped, and the localities had no time to adapt, and suddenly entered the scorching summer, which was unbearable.

This negligently changing weather is like the rapidly changing international situation in the East.

Because the heavy rain stopped and the water potential dropped, the flood fighting process in Hebei was greatly accelerated.By the middle of the month, the dikes in various places had basically been blocked.

Most of Song's internal worries were relieved, and he immediately became stronger.

The year before last, the Jin army was still swallowing thousands of miles like a tiger, but this year it was difficult to breathe under the pressure of Song Dynasty.

This is a worse world.

Although Great Song has serious internal worries, as long as it is better than Jin's domestic and foreign troubles, it will naturally occupy a strong position with ease.

After the torrential rain subsided, Wanyan Wusai, the envoy of the Kingdom of Jin Mission, was finally received by Zhao Huande.

Because it was a formal court meeting, Wanyan Wosai solemnly handed over the letter of credence given to Zhao Huan by the Emperor of Jin.

This is the first time that Zhao Huan had a direct communication with Wanyan Wu Qimai since he traveled through time.

The servant sent the letter of credence to Zhao Huan, Zhao Huan slowly unfolded it, and at the same time looked at Wanyan Wusai who was kneeling below, and asked, "How is the emperor of Jin?"

Wanyan Wosai was furious and said: "My Dajin Kingdom calls your Majesty the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, and your Majesty should call my lord the Emperor of the Dajin Kingdom."

Zhao Huan glanced at the beginning of the letter of credence, and he really praised the emperor of Song Dynasty.

Zhao Huan said with a smile: "Your Kingdom of Jin is really deeply influenced by Confucianism, and you still care about these red tapes as always. Since the alliance at sea, you have been entangled in this aspect. I call you Dajin, and your Kingdom of Jin will be able to Swallowed like a tiger?"

Wanyan Wusai said angrily: "At least Your Majesty should have a heart of respect for our court, so that our court can admire allies."

"Hehe, Youbang. You can really say it." Zhao Huan sneered and asked, "You Jurchens have been arrogant and domineering for decades, slaughtering cities and countries, and tyrannying the world. Now you are defeated by our court, and you are about to come to the city. Suddenly think of good neighborliness and friendship, admiration for friendship?"

Wanyan Wusai quickly said: "Your Majesty has quite misunderstood our court. My lord just did not want the world to be in chaos and the people to live in dire straits, so he sent troops to expel the violent Liao. Now that the war is over, why don't our two countries just repair each other and become friends?" What's more, the Song Dynasty probably spent a lot of money to control the floods in Hebei? Now that the floods have passed, and the weather is hot, there may be plagues everywhere. Judging from the current situation, the Song Dynasty may not be sustainable! "

This guy is soft but hard, with a needle hidden in the cotton, and he also alludes to Zhao Huan's threat is unrealistic, and it is impossible for the Song Dynasty to come to the city.

Zhao Huan smiled lightly and said, "I can tell you that it took 300 million guan to deal with the flood in the Yellow River. I have prepared 800 million guan to relieve the victims and prevent the plague."

Wanyan Wosai showed complacency, proud of his insight into the situation.With a total of more than 8000 million fiscal expenditures, how could Song Dynasty have the spare energy to continue fighting?

"But the 100 million guan is all within the budget of the government. The military expenditure of 8000 million guan will not be affected. I believe that our army will be able to carry out my will and sweep away all clowns!"

In the next instant, the expression on Wanyan Wosai's face was completely stiff, and that trace of elation hadn't bloomed before it turned into infinite panic and doubt.

"Impossible! How could the State of Song have more than [-] million fiscal revenues!"

If Da Song really has hundreds of millions of dollars in finance, what possibility is there for the two sides to continue fighting?The Song Dynasty could kill the Kingdom of Jin with piles of money.

Because of the advanced civilization of the Song Dynasty, in this land, Song, Jin, and Xia all used the currency of the Song Dynasty.

Jin Guo's technology is backward, and it even uses old coins from Liao and Song Dynasties.

The tightness of coins made it impossible for Wanyan Wosai to imagine the situation where the Song Dynasty taxed hundreds of millions.

If this is the case, even if Da Song used a steady stream of money to arm the new army, he could easily drag down the Da Jin Kingdom.

Here Zhao Huan was clearly crushing Wanyan Wusai's brutality with a civilized vision.

It is true that the Song Dynasty has hundreds of millions of military expenditures, but it does not mean that it can be immediately converted into national mobilization capabilities.

In feudal society, roads were not smooth, tools were outdated, and the upper limit of national mobilization capacity that could be transformed was firmly locked.

It is already the limit for the Great Song Dynasty to transform wealth into material resources and continuously transport them to Hebei. It is impossible to guarantee that Yanyun will supply hundreds of thousands of troops at the same time.

To improve the country's overall mobilization ability, it is necessary to improve civilization and increase the productivity of the whole society.

But it was impossible for Wanyan Wosai to have such a vision. When all the data were displayed, he was so shocked that he almost lost his ability to think.

Financial health means that the Song Army can still mobilize 30 troops for the Northern Expedition like last year.

However, it is difficult for Jin Guo to go all out to fight Da Song again.

Once the main force of the Jin army is dragged in Yanyun again, Koryo in the east, Liao in the west, and Mongolia in the north will take the opportunity to encroach on the territory of Jin in all directions.

No matter whether Wanyan Wosai believed Zhao Huan's words or not, he had to hold on to his confidence and said: "The Song Dynasty has always liked to make big claims to slander the world. This billions of wealth is the same as that of the million forbidden soldiers. I don't know the reality, but for His Majesty's sake, and for the sake of the people of the world, the best choice is to end the war between the two dynasties. Once the war resumes, the billions of dollars in the Song Dynasty's finances will probably be another burst of bubbles, and the people will not It is necessary to burn people's lives."

"You are very eloquent." Zhao Huan said lightly.

Wanyan Wosai's face turned bitter instantly, knowing that all the eloquent words he had just said were not listened to by the Song Dynasty emperor.

The national strategy of the Great Jin Dynasty "attacking war with peace and cooperation" encountered a deep-rooted and insurmountable difficulty at the very beginning.

That is, Emperor Zhao Song had no interest in negotiating peace with Da Jin at all.

The emperor who is in power now is stern and resolute. He is completely different from the other emperors of the Song Dynasty. He refused to bow his head and make peace in the desperate situation. Now that he has the advantage, he naturally has to grit his teeth and persist To die to the end.

Therefore, if you want to "attack the war with peace and discussion", gain a strategic advantage, and meet the needs of the Kingdom of Jin, you must have the interests of impressing the Kingdom of Song.

Wanyan Wosai said: "I, Dajin, would like to have peace with the Song Dynasty. As long as the Song Dynasty pays tribute to our dynasty, my dynasty is willing to return all the land in Hedong and Shaanxi of the Great Song Dynasty. And Zhuozhou, Zhuozhou, Youzhou, Shuozhou, Huanzhou, Yingzhou, and Yunzhou among the nine states behind the mountain were all given to Song Dynasty."

Yunzhou is the famous Datong, also known as Xijing in Liao Kingdom.

During the Sea Alliance, Song and Jin disputed over the ownership of Yunzhou, and in the end they did not clearly determine the ownership of Yunzhou in the covenant.

Now the Kingdom of Jin has ceded all the south of Yunzhou to Song Dynasty.

As long as Zhao Huan agrees, if it doesn't help the Song Dynasty, the situation in the nine border towns of the Ming Dynasty can be restored immediately.
