In Yanjing City, almost everyone had a strong smile on their faces.

Since the founding of Dayan, the emperor has brought surprises to the world one after another.

The first is to defeat and completely defeat the Jin people, shattering the two strategic aggressions of the Jin country, and avoiding the danger of destroying the country.

The second is the recovery of the Yanbei area by a surprise army, realizing the first step in eradicating the century-old humiliation.

Immediately afterwards, in the field of Wuchuan, the coalition forces of various Mongolian tribes were defeated, and then they went on an expedition to Monan Mongolia to recover the Qiyan tribe and the Borjijin tribe.

He also raided the Tatar tribe and captured the Tatar princess Xiulan.

The entire Monan Mongolia surrendered to Dayan.

Another half a year later, a tacit agreement was reached with the Emperor of the Kingdom of Jin, and the Yanyun Campaign was launched.

After several wars, the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun were completely recovered, and the century-old national humiliation was wiped out!
At the end of the Song Dynasty, what the emperors of all dynasties failed to do, Wang Lin did.

The border of Dayan expanded straight to the north, facing the Kingdom of Jin in the north of Yanjing.

It really fulfilled the generous oath of the emperor and the son of heaven to guard the country and the king to die.

Originally, people in the world thought that Dayan would usher in a period of peaceful development for at least ten years.

Unexpectedly, the emperor secretly launched the Southern Expedition to Dali War.

Not long after, the Yan army pacified the whole territory of Dali and changed the kingdom of Dali to Dayan Yunnan Province.

Taking advantage of the trend, the Vientiane Kingdom was brought under the jurisdiction of Dayan, and all countries in the southwest were subordinated to the imperial court.

This is not a big deal.

In the process of returning to the court, the emperor personally led an army to defeat the invading Mongolian Naiman cavalry by tens of thousands on the Xixia border.

Now, with the coalition forces of various ministries, the Naiman clan was directly wiped out.

This means that the territory controlled by Dayan has expanded suddenly, radiating the entire Western Regions and Monan and Mobei regions. Counting from Wang Lin's usurpation of the Song Dynasty, Dayan's territory has more than doubled now?
The prestige of the emperor and the prestige of the imperial court continued to skyrocket in the previous victories.

No one said that the emperor was militaristic, but what he said was that the emperor descended from heaven to the people, and the gods came down to save the common people and the country.

At the same time, Dayan's desire to open up territories and the atmosphere of fighting for the whole country is strong, far surpassing all dynasties.

This is a heated discussion among the people, and the focus is generally on the emperor.

When mentioning the emperor Wang Lin, the common people fear him like a god.

But in the middle of the court, at today's court meeting, there was another fierce dispute between the civil and military forces of the Manchu dynasty.

The issue is the ownership of the Naiman homeland.

To put it bluntly, it is who the original land of the Naiman people now belongs to.

It turns out that the emperor promised that after Naiman was destroyed, each family would divide up Naiman's territory.

Gaochang divided one part, the rest of the Khitan tribe occupied one part, and then set aside one part to give the Tatar tribe a Mongolian foothold.

Originally, the ministers in the court had no idea about Naiman, a Mongolian tribe, and they didn't even care about its territory. They thought it was just a barren land and could not be compared with the fertile land of the Central Plains.

But then a lot of information about Naiman was exposed, especially when the courtiers learned that the land occupied by the Mongolian tribe was not only a desert, but also a vast grassland with rich water and grass, a lush mountain forest and a large lake, rich in good horses and rich in minerals.

Especially under Altay, there are still a lot of fertile land that can be cultivated, and the climate conditions are similar to those in Hebei, so everyone's hearts are moved.

Moreover, Naiman's territory is so large that it is beyond the imagination of the Yan people.

Officials from the Mining Department of the Ministry of Industry who followed the coalition forces to attack Naiman came back and talked about it everywhere, saying that Naiman's territory was so large that even the three provinces of Hebei, Henan and Shandong combined could not compare.

This directly made Chaozhong fryer.

With such endless development prospects and a vast territory, why should it be given to foreigners?

It must be directly included in the territory of Dayan!
The Qing Zhuang faction (New Party), headed by the ministers of the Military Aircraft Department, insisted on establishing a new province in the old Naiman land, sending troops to directly govern it, and began to immigrate there when the time was right.

The conservative faction (the old party) headed by the cabinet Li Gang and others insisted on fulfilling the emperor's promise. How can they break their promises if they are magnificent in China, a majestic emperor, and a co-lord of the world?
Furthermore, Naiman's hometown is far away from Dayan, so it is extremely difficult to send people to govern it.

Moreover, Dayan is now facing a future war with the Kingdom of Jin, and it is not appropriate to divide the superior force out. This will directly weaken the country's military strength, and the gains outweigh the losses.

In fact, Li Gang and others did not have to give up their homeland of Naiman.

Instead, I think that this timing is not the best time to directly bring Naiman into the territory.

Let's divide it up among the Gaochang people, the Mongols, and the rest of the Khitan tribe, and rule that area with foreign people. As long as Dayan manages and controls the above-mentioned three kingdoms, it can gradually return them to Wanghua at the least cost.

And if in the future, after the gold is destroyed, the national power becomes stronger, so what if we take it back from the aliens?

The two sides couldn't stop arguing, and the courtroom quarreled into a pot of porridge.

Wang Lin felt a little helpless.

From Wang Lin's point of view, Naiman's hometown is of great value as a barrier for the Great Yan.

Secondly, it is rich in mineral resources and has huge long-term strategic benefits.

However, the land is vast and sparsely populated, and at least [-]% of them are in high-altitude areas. If it is not a foreign race, the Han people in the Central Plains will have to pay the price of one or several generations if they want to survive and reproduce here.

Therefore, for the time being, Wang Lin is more willing to implement a prison policy here, let the Gaochang people, Mongols and the rest of the Khitan tribe govern, use Gaochang to check and balance the Mongol Tatar tribe and the Khitan tribe, and in turn use the Tatar and Khitan people to check and balance Gaochang Uyghurs.

After all, the top priority now is the national war with Jin.

If the Kingdom of Jin is not destroyed, everything will cease.

And if the Kingdom of Jin is destroyed, in this vast territory, there will be no foreign race that will block Dayan's attack.

Why be in a hurry?

Wang Lin sent troops from other races to destroy Naiman, in order to preserve Dayan's strength.

But this kind of words can be said in the heart, and it can also be put into action, but it cannot be said.

Gaochang Uyghur Prince Ceylan, Khitan General Xiao Wan, and Tatar Khan Nalatu stood in the main hall with complicated expressions, and they were speechless for a moment when they heard the quarrels of the civil and military officials of Dayan.

For Gaochang, the Uyghurs hope to obtain some areas bordering the Gaochang Uyghurs, which can better protect Gaochang's homeland security.

And the Nalatu and Tatars desperately need a site and pasture to house their 10,000+ people.

As for Xiao Wan, his mind was relaxed, and the rest of the Khitan tribe lived very well in Yanbei.

Occupying a large piece of fertile pasture, and under the protection of the Yan army, you can also raise good horses for Dayan in exchange for the food needed by the tribe. Life is much better than in the past.

For the Khitan people, Naiman's hometown is dispensable.

At most, it can be regarded as icing on the cake, slightly stronger than chicken ribs.

Especially for someone like Xiao Wan who has no political ambitions and only focuses on laying the foundation for the future King of Liao (Xiao Duolilai's son), he is even more reluctant to leave Dayan's native land.

Zong Ze was bullied by several middle- and lower-level officials for a long time, his face flushed red, and he was panting with anger.

He was already grumpy, but now seeing that these so-called young and strong factions are disregarding the overall situation, only looking for short-term benefits, and have no respect for himself, a veteran cabinet minister, the anger in his heart has risen to the verge of eruption.

Seeing Gu Qingchuan, Minister of Military Aircraft, chattering about the future development and utilization of Naiman's hometown, Zongze couldn't bear it any longer, and said furiously: "Gu Qingchuan, you are a fortunate person, you know that my biggest enemy is not The Kingdom of Jin is not a foreign race, but you arrogant and self-satisfied rats!"

Zong Ze was in a state of desperation and began to attack personally.

Wang Lin couldn't help frowning.

Zong Ze's biggest problem is his bad temper. Once he gets angry, he can't control himself.

But he still did not open his mouth to interrupt the debate between the two parties.

He knew that although the Young Zhuang faction was radical, it was related to the interests of the country. Even if he was the emperor, he could not make decisions on this matter without going through the national discussion.

If this group of young and strong factions are not allowed to fully speak, it will obviously dampen their enthusiasm for participating in and discussing state affairs and serving the country.

Gu Qingchuan sneered and said: "Zong Xiang, why are you so disrespectful, showing off your eloquence, and attacking lower officials?

Zongxiang, I don’t want to compete with you, but Daniel is on the table: the land of Naiman is extremely vast, so let this land be handed over to the foreign race, and when the foreign race grows stronger in the future, it will definitely be the second golden country. How is it different from capital enemies?
At that time, what should I, Dayan, feel? "

Zongze stomped his feet: "Nonsense, the Gaochang Uighurs have always been subject to the Central Plains, and now they are the vassal state of my Dayan, and the Tatar tribe and the rest of the Khitan tribe are also under the jurisdiction of the imperial court. How can they be compared with the Jin people?

Besides, with 10,000+ Tatar people and [-] Khitan people as enemies, is it not like a mantis arm is like a car and a mayfly shakes a tree?Gu Qingchuan, wait, this is unfounded worry! "

Gu Qingchuan curled his lips and was about to refute, when Liu Qi, who had been silent all this time, stood up and cupped his hands and said: "Master Zong calm down, the dispute between you and me is for the sake of the country, not a personal grudge, if my words are inappropriate, please forgive me One two!"

Compared with the stubborn Gu Qingchuan, Liu Qi is a gentleman, gentle and elegant. With just one or two words from him, most of the anger in Zongze's heart was eliminated.

Li Gang also stood up to smooth things over: "Today's dispute is a national dispute, and it is not a personal grievance in the first place.

However, the old man agrees with what Zong Xiang said.

Be it the Mongols or the Khitans, not to mention that they have already surrendered to Dayan, even if they have a different heart in the future, as my Dayan soldiers pointed out, they will definitely be invincible.

The old man thought that the current Mongol Tatar tribe and the rest of the Khitan tribe combined had no more than 30 tribes, which was incomparable with the Jin people.

As for the matter of Naiman's homeland, I think it's better to take it slowly.

After all, the place is vast and sparsely populated. If I, Dayan, want to directly send troops to govern it, it will take too much troops, which is not good for the current situation. "

Zhang Jun also came out of the class and smiled slightly: "Li Xiang, when the Jin Kingdom was under the rule of the Liao Kingdom, it developed and grew with a hundred thousand people in just a dozen years. I underestimated the Jurchen alien race, which led to the disaster of destroying the country.

Li Xiang, the lessons learned by the Khitan people, I, Dayan, must not repeat the same mistakes. "

Even Yue Fei, who seldom expresses his opinion at the court meeting, couldn't help coming out to agree: "Li Xiang, all the cabinet ministers, you must know that your majesty said that people who are not of my race must have different hearts!"

Wang Lin glanced at Yue Fei in surprise.

As a student, he was always prudent, and he seldom showed himself in front of others, especially in front of his master, Yue Fei hardly expressed his opinion.

Yue Fei couldn't help but stand up today, which shows that the opinions of the DPRK and the Central Committee are still dominated by the New Party.

As soon as Zhang Jun and Yue Fei said these words, everyone in the new party eagerly echoed them.

Li Gang, Wu Min, Zong Ze and others looked at each other in blank dismay, and couldn't find words to refute for a while.

After all, the Kingdom of Jin fought big with a small one, swallowing an elephant like a snake, and a Jurchen with hundreds of thousands of tribes wiped out a large country with tens of millions of people in Khitan. This is an iron-clad fact.

Moreover, if the emperor hadn't turned out to save the country from peril, the Song Dynasty would have perished under the iron hooves of the Jin people long ago.

Xiao Wan, Ceylon and Nalatu looked even more embarrassed.

This group of officials of the Great Swallow has no scruples about talking about foreign races, what foreign races are big, and what is not our race in front of themselves and others. Their hearts must be different, and it is clear that they will overthrow the emperor's promise...

Ceylon and Nalatu quietly looked at the calm emperor Wang Lin sitting on the dragon chair.

At this time, the emperor turned his head to look at the three of them, and said with a slight smile: "Xiao Wan, Prince Ceylon, Nalatu Khan, what do you think of my minister's words?"

Xiao Wan smiled, cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, I think that what the ministers of the Military Aircraft Department said is very reasonable. At least for me Khitan people, it is so.

After I Khitan destroyed the country, I was given by His Majesty to recuperate in Yanbei and live and work in peace and contentment till now.To be honest, I Khitan people prefer to live a stable life under the protection of Dayan. As for going to the homeland of Naiman to form a country of my own, most Khitan people are not very interested.

Furthermore, the rest of my Khitan tribe is the household of the prince of the current dynasty, what should the Khitan people do in the future, they should be punished by His Royal Highness King Pingliao when he becomes an adult, and the ministers dare not preside over it. "

A group of ministers laughed when they heard the words, and praised Xiao Wan for his loyalty and loyalty, and that he is a minister of the country.

Xiao Wan smiled wryly, he just conveyed the wishes of most Khitan people.

If the remaining Khitan troops wanted to go to a foreign land to establish a country, it would be tantamount to seeking their own death. Although the Naiman people lost to Mobei, they might not come back in the future.

There are other Mongolian tribes who are also watching. If Xiao Wan takes the Khitan people to Naiman's hometown and loses the protection of Dayan, the fate of the Khitan people will be worrying.

He knew very well that the biggest interest of the Khitan people was to be tied to Dayan, after all the emperor had entrusted the rest of the Khitan tribe to his son.

Wang Lin laughed secretly, Xiao Wan is really smart and knows how to advance and retreat.

With this leader in the rest of the Khitan tribe, future development can be expected.

However, for Wang Lin, the remaining Khitan tribes will gradually have a sense of belonging to Dayan in the future, gradually integrate into Dayan's multi-ethnic group, and be gradually sinicized. This is a matter of time.

Wang Lin looked at Ceylon and Nalatu again.

Ceylon pondered his words for a while, not knowing how to say so as not to offend Dayan's courtiers and emperor. After all, the Gaochang Uyghurs were deeply afraid of Dayan's mighty military power.

But Nalatu could only bite the bullet and said: "Your Majesty, the ancestral land of our Tatar tribe has been occupied by the Jin people. Now I have nearly 20 people who have no land to live in. I will stay on the Xixia border for the time being. Please forgive me and give It’s a place where my Tatar tribe can live.”

The current Nalatu is no longer the proud Tatar prince of the past.

There was pleading in his voice.
