Lord Moyu was forced to open

When the missions of the two countries spread the news back to their countries, there was an uproar in the courts of the two countries.

The two courts were not satisfied with the agreement between the two worlds, but it was a done deal. In addition, the person who sent the letter had seen with his own eyes how big the warship Wang Cezhi and others were sitting on, and described the strength and power of the Song Dynasty to the country. , in the end the two courts had no choice but to accept the two-border agreement.

The only difference is that Zhaoluo had sent an envoy to Bianjing of the Song Dynasty, and he really knew how powerful the Song Dynasty was.

However, the Biguo side only listened to what these envoys told them and had no idea about the power of the Song Dynasty. While accepting the agreement between the two worlds, they originally advocated Confucian culture but buried their hostility towards the Song Dynasty in their hearts.

When the agreement between the two worlds was sent back to the Great Song Dynasty, it also caused some controversy in the Great Song Dynasty.

Some officials who were not aggressive believed that Wang Cezhi's actions dragged the Song Dynasty into an unnecessary whirlpool and caused trouble and burden to the Song Dynasty for nothing.

But for the hawks in the court, this behavior is equivalent to expanding the territory, and has been affirmed by the hawks.

When Zhao Jun got the news, he was already smiling from ear to ear, and he was secretly happy in his heart. His decision to send Wang Cezhi was indeed right, and he achieved the result he wanted.

That's right, the reason why Wang Ce proposed this escrow method was because of Zhao Jun's instigation. When the domestic situation of both parties and their willingness to cease the war, Zhao Jun immediately discovered the exploitable points.

Through the urgent desire for a ceasefire between the two countries and the impending turmoil in the domestic situation of the two countries, Zhao Jun judged that this was the best time to extend the Song Dynasty's tentacles into the two countries. As long as the Song Dynasty could be controlled by the two countries, With a tentacle extending into the territory, Zhao Jun has many ways to finally annex the two countries.

And with this idea, Zhao Jun was no longer a day or two. From the beginning of selling weapons, Zhao Jun began to make plans. First, he used weapons to continuously bleed the two countries, and at the same time, he used the resources of the two countries to fill the vacancies in the Song Dynasty. .

In fact, the Song Dynasty has made a lot of gold, silver and resources from the two countries in recent years. The Song Dynasty must bear a huge responsibility for the current situation of the two countries.

But this is what Zhao Jun wants.

When the two countries were weak, the Song Dynasty extended its tentacles into the two countries. From then on, the Song Dynasty could use the thirteen mansions in its hands as the basis to continuously use the culture and economy of the Song Dynasty to attract the people of the two countries.

At the same time, they can continue to suck the blood of the two countries. By the time they react, they may not know how weakened they will be.

At that time, Zhao Jun can find a decent reason to directly take over the two countries and set up new counties on the territories of the two countries.

And use the two countries as a springboard to open the passage from the Song Dynasty to the Luzon Islands in Southeast Asia.

Anyway, Zhao Jun has already made plans. Since the domestic territory will eventually be unable to meet the needs of the people of the Song Dynasty, he will do his best to expand the territory of the Song Dynasty infinitely while he is alive. With the strength he currently has in his hands, Have this ability.

When the family fortune gets bigger, even if there is a prodigal son in the future, the failure will be slower. As the saying goes, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse.

Furthermore, even if the Song Dynasty disappears in the future, as long as they have occupied these territories, the people of the Song Dynasty will be able to tell the outside world that they have been there since ancient times, right?
After all, he is a famous teacher.

As for the harm that continuous wars did to the people of the Song Dynasty.

Look at the life that the people of the Song Dynasty are living now. As long as they can keep winning, they will be able to fill the country with war dividends and make the people's lives better. In this way, how can the people hate war.

It would be better to turn the Song Dynasty into a war-loving country than to turn into the coward that I was in my previous life, right?

Anyway, in Zhao Jun's opinion, even if the Song Dynasty died because of belligerence, it would be better than dying because of cowardice. This thing doesn't sound good, and future generations will be embarrassed if they tell it!
Zhao Jun can't afford to be embarrassed!
In the court, when the two factions of courtiers were arguing about whether to send out garrison troops, Zhao Jun directly decided to send out garrison troops.

And this number cannot be small.

According to the intelligence sent back by Wang Cezhi and others and the secret guards, the total population of the Thirteen Mansion that was taken over by the Song Dynasty should be around 120,000. Most of them are old, weak, women and children. Due to the war, there are very few young and strong people, only one of them. Thousands of people.

According to the principle of ten people supporting one army, the Song Dynasty could send 10,000 troops to the local area for garrison.

But in this way, the Thirteenth Prefecture can barely support the 10,000 troops, let alone share the tax money between the two countries. In this case, eating items would be too ugly.

But Zhao Jun decided to send 10,000 troops there even if the Song Dynasty had to put some in advance.

The number of this army cannot be small.

Moreover, the Song Dynasty does not need to wait for too long. Zhao Jun believes that he can quickly develop the local economy with his own skills, and then there will be no need for the Song Dynasty to cushion the situation.

And with the Thirteenth Mansion in hand, it is equivalent to the maritime merchants of the Song Dynasty having their own port where they can dock. The benefits it will bring are huge, enough to make people jealous, and will also make Zhao Jun layout is easier to implement.

Because the troops were stationed outside for no reason, and the court had to provide money, the Ministry of Revenue was naturally unwilling at first, and the old man Cui Wen even disagreed with his beard and eyes.

But when Zhao Jun proposed that the company could be fully funded from internal funds, the old man hesitated again.

According to past experience, if His Majesty is willing to fully invest in anything, it will be very profitable. Although he still doesn’t know what the benefits of this matter are, it does not prevent him from judging based on experience.

Just when Zhao Jun was about to make the decision to fully fund the project with internal funds, the old man regretted it.

Immediately he said in the court:
"Your Majesty! After all, this is also a matter of the Song Dynasty. I just thought about it and decided that it would not be a good idea to have all the funds funded by the internal funds. I would like to have the internal funds and the household department each contribute half!"

This is the way Cui Wen came up with, each side pays half and the risk is shared equally.

In this way, if there is profit from this matter, the account department can also take a bite. If there is no profit, then the user department does not bear all the risks.

Zhao Jun secretly scolded this old guy for being slippery, but said: "The country now needs a lot of money, and its finances have just improved. It is true that as Cui Laoshangshu said, there is no need to use money when it is not necessary. What a waste of money.

This matter is still fully funded by internal funds, and the money from the treasury Cui Shangshu should be reserved for more important places. "

Seeing Zhao Jun say this, Cui Wen suddenly became more sure that this matter could make money.

He immediately said:

"What are you talking about, Your Majesty? Garrisoning troops is a major event to show the majesty of the Song Dynasty to the vassal country. It is also a major matter related to the face of the Song Dynasty!

How can our household department not take action on this matter? "

Zhao Jun had a smile on his face, but he was worried in his heart.

Why is this old guy getting smarter and smarter?

He forced a smile and said, "But isn't that what Cui Shangshu said just now?"

Cui Wen said righteously and sternly: "Just now, Wei Chen's situation was small and he did not understand His Majesty's good intentions. Now Wei Chen suddenly realizes that the Ministry of Revenue still needs to take its own responsibility for this matter!"

Okay! You, a minister of the Ministry of Finance, can say such shameless words just for money. I underestimate you!
Zhao Jun stared at the old minister dumbfounded, and finally had no choice but to agree.

Seeing the helpless expression on Zhao Jun's face, Cui Wen had a big smile on his face.
