Liu Song Hanque

Chapter 464
Chang'an, Liangyi Hall.

There are two documents in front of Liu Yizhen.

One is from Hetao, and the other is from Qingzhou.

Copper ore and iron ore were discovered on one side, and silver ore was discovered on the other.

That is, the famous Yinchuan Mine and Neon Silver Mine in later generations.

Liu Yizhen never mentioned these two places to anyone.

But they came to Liu Yizhen in such a wonderful way...

"These big mines are not the time to dig."

Hetao is an important military area facing the Northern Wei Dynasty. If the news of a large mine in Hetao reaches Tuoba Tao's ears, it is hard to guarantee that the poor and crazy Northern Wei Dynasty will not invade Hetao on a large scale at this time.

According to the news from the Northern Jinyiwei, the monarchs and ministers of the Northern Wei Dynasty trembled a little after Hu Xia's demise, and once again increased their investment in the military.The current Northern Wei Dynasty can already be called militaristic.

It's just that whether it's Tuoba Tao or Cui Hao, they should still put their hopes in Hebei, hoping to make a comeback and rule with Liu Song.

If they discover the true value of the Loop, will they change their national policy and attack towards the Loop... No one can say.

The Japanese side is fine.

But Liu Yizhen still didn't want to launch an offensive from the East China Sea to the Wa country now.

Due to geographical factors, this route has caused too much history of blood and tears...

With the current technology, it is impossible to allow smooth passage between the two places.

According to Liu Yizhen's expectation, the best route to the Wa country is to cross the Tsushima Strait, which is shorter in distance after controlling the Three Koreas in the future, so as to better control the bridgehead of the new world.

But since he found out in Yanzhidu, Liu Yizhen couldn't pretend not to know.

"Pass the decree to Hiko-"

"Don't bring a few silver medals in front of me to show off. If he is really capable, he will bring me a boatload of silver next time!"

Liu Yizhen simply pretended not to know the existence of the Great Silver Mine in Wa Kingdom.

How much can be earned and how much benefit can be generated, before Liu Song fully controlled the land of Sanhan and the Tsushima Strait, he saw Yanzhi's own ability.

Now the focus is on the Hetao.

Hiding it, it may not be possible to hide it now.

After all, the two young people Liu Yuanjing and Zongxi were still a little immature. Not only did they not block the news, but they also spread it around as if it was a success.

From their point of view, it is hoped that the imperial court will pay more attention to Hetao.

But from the perspective of the imperial court, it once again intensified the contradiction between Liu Song and the Northern Wei Dynasty.

Of course Liu Yizhen is not afraid of the Northern Wei Dynasty now.

But after all, Liu Song has just experienced a big battle and needs to recuperate.

Moreover, Liu Song has not fully digested the land of Hetao, and Fu Hongzhi's cavalry unit has not yet been formed.

If there is a war with the Northern Wei Dynasty at this time.

Although the final victor will still be Liu Song, in Hebei, Hetao, and even the Central Plains, there may be another wave of devastation, and the people's livelihood that has finally improved will be beaten back to ten years ago again.

On national issues, Liu Yizhen is always greedy.

He wants to win, and win at the least cost.

As the north's plate became bigger and bigger, Liu Yizhen lost the possibility of putting all his eggs in one basket.A military plan as risky as facing Tuoba Si and Helian Bobo before will basically not happen.

This is not cowardice, but Liu Yizhen has to start to be responsible for himself and the people.

"Call Xie Hui to enter the palace."

Xie Hui seemed to be a little frightened since the last time he was entrusted with the duke of the state.

According to Jin Yiwei's report, this guy almost never leaves his house every day except for going to court.

You must know that now that Zhu Lingshi and Tan Daoji have been taken over by Liu Yizhen, Xie Hui is the most eye-catching person.

Xie Hui used to always use his "young and promising" as the capital to show off, but now he is afraid that he wished that he could be ten or twenty years older.

When the time comes, he Xie Hui will come directly to beg for the bones, so naturally he won't have to get involved in this crap in the court.

But it's a pity.

Compared with Xu Xianzhi and Wang Hong, who can retire in a fair manner, he is still very young, and he cannot leave at all.

Now every time he is summoned by Liu Yizhen, Xie Hui always puts up his energy, for fear that Liu Yizhen will set him up.

Fortunately, Liu Yizhen didn't have the evil intention of scaring Xie Hui, and he called Xie Hui to discuss business matters.

"The news about the Hetao Mine has probably reached Tuoba Tao's ears, and I hope Xie Shizhong will pay attention."

"Don't thank Shizhong for doing other things, at least delay Tuoba Tao's attack for two to three years."

Xie Hui looked at Liu Yizhen with a resentful expression.

It’s really like taking it when you use it, and throwing it away when you’re done using it~
But deep down, Xie Hui still felt a bit of peace of mind.

At least the emperor still needs him.

If the emperor is free and invites him to eat, drink, have fun, recite poems and compose poems, then Xie Hui will really worry about his own head!

Xie Hui looked at Hetao's documents, and asked Liu Yizhen, "Your Majesty really thinks that Tuoba Tao will send troops to this big mine?"

"uncertain."

"But if we really have to wait for him to send troops before we respond, it will be too late."

Xie Hui looked up at Liu Yizhen in astonishment.

It wasn't that he was surprised by what Liu Yizhen said, but Liu Yizhen's tone.

For some reason, Xie Hui actually heard Liu Yizhen's fear of Tuoba Tao!
The Emperor Taiwu of the Northern Wei Dynasty lost too many opportunities because of Liu Song's Northern Expedition.Now he has won the record of Beiyan.

only……

This kind of record is obviously not enough for Liu Song's military, which generally regards "destruction of the country" as the standard.

"Don't be adrift. I said before that I was more afraid of Helian Bobo than Tuobatao because the Northern Wei Dynasty had already lost Hebei."

"If the two of them are in the same situation, I still think that Tuoba Tao is a little more difficult to deal with than Helian Bobo."

Hearing Liu Yizhen's comment, Xie Hui felt a chill behind him.

He obviously didn't expect that there were still people in this world who could get such an evaluation from Liu Yizhen.

And this person is their biggest enemy right now!

Xie Hui also suppressed the contempt in his heart and began to study the situation between the two countries.

"It's best to hide the news about this big mine."

"At the same time, His Majesty can send some soldiers to Luoyang Jinyang to increase the pressure on the direction of Pingcheng."

"In addition, His Majesty can send envoys to the Northern Wei Dynasty to show friendship."

"..."

For Xie Hui's suggestion, Liu Yizhen followed the good advice.

"Okay, I'll send someone to tell Liu Yuanjing and Zongxi to keep their mouths tight."

"Ahem, Your Majesty..."

Xie Hui reminded Liu Yizhen with a stomach ache: "What His Majesty should suppress most now is not Hetao, but Chang'an."

Chang'an?

Liu Yizhen suddenly had a bad feeling.

"how you said that?"

"The thing that attracts everyone the most in Hetao is not the minerals. It's those... barbarians!"
