Water Margin farming to become powerful

The negotiations between Zhao Ji and the Jin people regarding the return of Yanyun's Sixteenth Week went through a lot of twists and turns.

The Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun were quite abandoned after being controlled by the Liao Kingdom. When Zhao Ji and the others took them back, they were roughly divided into two parts.

One area belongs to the Xijing Road of the Liao Kingdom, with Datong Prefecture in Xijing as the capital, and there are also Yingzhou, Yuzhou, Ruzhou, Guizhou, Fengsheng, Guihua, Wuzhou and Shuozhou.

A piece of Nanjing Road belonged to the original Liao Kingdom. The capital was Nanjing Youzhou, and there were also Jizhou, Jingzhou, Tanzhou, Shunzhou, Zhuozhou and Yizhou.

But in addition to this, there are three states south of the Great Wall: Luanzhou, Pingzhou, and Yingzhou, which are close to the later Liaoning Province. They were established by the Khitan people themselves. Therefore, the Jin people considered these three places not among the sixteen states of Yanyun. I was unwilling to give it to Song Dynasty.

But this time the Song Dynasty couldn't accept it at all, because these three states were all south of the Great Wall, and the Jin people occupied a large stronghold south of the Great Wall.The barrier of Yanyun Sixteen States still cannot be established.

Although the North China base area is also a close concern of the Song Dynasty, after all, the North China base area is still a place for the Han people, and even the people of the Jin Kingdom have begun to take careful precautions against them.

However, the Song Dynasty had no bargaining price in front of the Jin people. In the original time and space, the Song Dynasty only obtained Zhuozhou and Yizhou from Guo Yaoshi during the entire battle to defeat the Liao Dynasty. Guo Yaoshi took them with him when he surrendered.

By this time and space, the Song Dynasty was even more stretched, without a single state, and lost 20 horses for no reason. Now it can only offer the Jin people to buy back the remaining states and counties among the sixteen states of Yanyun.

Wang Fu proposed that the Jin people should use the land of these three states to compensate for not taking back Youzhou. However, the Jin people insisted that these three states were originally the lands of the Khitan people and were their spoils of war. They refused to sell them no matter what. Later, they still refused to sell them. They threatened that if the Song Dynasty insisted on it, they would not even sell Shunzhou and Tanzhou.

They really treat the country as a business.

The Song Dynasty had no choice but to pinch its nose and win thirteen states.

After "pacifying" the Thirteen States, the Song Dynasty began to station troops.

Tong Guan moved here and there and gathered another 10 people, stationed in Datong Prefecture, and was responsible for the front-line defense of Shanxi.

In Yanshan Mansion in the north, Pharmacist Guo made a beautiful move.

This guy was already the Enzhou Observer. He had lost contact with Liu Yanqing when he was demoted, so he was not greatly affected by the Shunzhou defeat. On the contrary, his team was the only one who returned to the organizational structure during the Shunzhou defeat. Those who retained gained Zhao Ji's respect.

Guo Yaoshi led [-] troops to Tanzhou and directly strangled the local Xi tribe forces.

By this time, the horses and fodder in Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures had almost been consumed.

Xiao Qian, who proclaimed himself emperor, tormented the people of the Xi tribe in his six tribes to death. His strength was already greatly weakened. Guo Yaoshi led a group of soldiers and horses to directly surround Xiao Qian, with the ever-victorious army as the leader. The basic Song army actually fought a beautiful battle of annihilation.

Guo Yaoshi personally led his men to pursue Xiao Qian for five days and nights, and killed Xiao Qian in the mountains, and returned after obtaining his head.

When the news came back, the entire Song Dynasty was shocked.

The Song army finally won the battle.

Although the battle was against the remnants of the Xi tribe who had survived a hundred battles, it was already a rare positive result for the Song army in the entire Liao-Jin war.

As a result, Pharmacist Guo received successive rewards and directly became the governor of Tanzhou, in charge of the entire Yanshan army.

In June of the fifth year of Xuanhe, Datong Prefecture.

A rough-faced man walked into the mansion of Zhao Ji, the prefect of Datong, with a smile.

Zhang Xiaochun looked this man up and down and saw that he was very young and somewhat uncertain.

"Sir, you said you wanted to give Datong Mansion 20 yuan as a salary subsidy. I wonder why?"

The visitor laughed and said: "This place has been harassed by the Khitans for many years. The life of the Han people is quite difficult. I am also a Han. I have some money and want to help the people here." Zhang Xiaochun nodded: "But this money is not a small amount. Amount, may I ask sir, where does the money come from?”

"The money is definitely not fake. The list is here. Please take a look at it, the prefect."

The young merchant smiled, took out a gift list from his sleeve and slowly pushed it in front of Zhang Xiaochun.

Zhang Xiaochun took a look and saw the words "Protect food and property, protect the country and protect the family" and "Seal of the North China Base Area Supervision Committee" on the gift list.

Zhang Xiaochun suddenly looked at the young man with wide eyes and said:

"You are a supervisor thief!"

Seeing that the young man did not deny it, Zhang Xiaochun was startled. He quickly stood up, took two steps back and shouted loudly: "Come here, take down this thief! You are so bold, you dare to come to Datong Mansion to harass you. "

Seeing several of Zhang Xiaochun's men rushing in, the young man did not panic at all.

"Master Magistrate, please don't be so excited. To be honest with you, when I entered Datong Mansion today, I not only met the Master Magistrate, but also Tong Guan, and I just met him too!"

"Tell lies! How could Tong Xiang have anything to do with a thief like you?"

Tong Guan, who was in charge of the entire Shanxi defense at this time, was definitely a man of his word. He looked at the young man with doubt.

"My name is Jie Bao, and I am the general supervisor of the Shandong Supervisory Committee. Now I am responsible for the Supervisory Committee's affairs in Shanxi. The prefect has just taken office. We will work together in the future. Today I just came to meet."

Zhang Xiaochun looked at Jie Bao without saying anything.

Jie Bao smiled and said, "Don't panic, sir. Even if you send someone to escort me out, you can't touch me. Why make today's first meeting so embarrassing?"

Seeing his fearless look, Zhang Xiaochun took a deep breath. He seemed to understand how difficult things were in this land that was originally the Liao Kingdom. Looking at Jie Bao's appearance, it seemed as if this place was not the land of the masses but their supervision. The territory will be the same.

"Why did you come to see me?"

"Why do you have such a bad memory, sir? As I said before, I have a large sum of money that I want to donate to our Datong Mansion for the construction of city defense."

"Are you so kind as to give money to the court to build a city?"

Xie Bao laughed and said: "The local people are living a difficult life and can no longer withstand the war. Once the city is built, whether it is used by the officers and soldiers of the Song Dynasty or the people of our supervisory committee, it can always prevent the Jin people from invading southward, right? "

Zhang Xiaochun:
"Don't try to sow discord between the Kingdom of Jin and the Kingdom of Song here."

Jie Bao couldn't help laughing again when he heard this.

"Your Excellency, you are really pretending to be confused. Do we, the Song Dynasty, trust those Jin people so much?"

"What if you don't worry? What if you don't worry? It has nothing to do with you bunch of rebellious officials and traitors. We, the Song soldiers, will defend the country of the Song Dynasty. It is not something you can covet."

"It's good that you have such ambitions. If you encounter something unspeakable in the future, please remember the solemn words you said today and protect the great unity."

Jie Bao said meaningfully: "I'm afraid that day won't be far away."

Hearing this, Zhang Xiaochun couldn't help but frown. He always felt that Jie Bao meant something.
