The first prince of Song Dynasty

Chapter 662
"How did Brother Gao know who I am?" Li Congjia asked suspiciously.

Isn’t this a white question, just now Xu You called you the King of Wu, this is not clear enough, others are not fools, how could they not know who you are.

"Speaking of it, it's really very simple. Didn't you call yourself Li Liu? In addition, Xu You called you King Wu just now, so I guessed that you might be the sixth prince of the Southern Tang Dynasty, the future emperor. gone."

Zhao Xu also made a fool of himself, which made him feel very bad. This guy was actually talking nonsense here.

"Brother Gao is also a smart person. That's right. This king is really Li Congjia. Seeing that Brother Gao is extraordinary, he is not an ordinary person."

"I, I'm just a small businessman. I have some money, but I'm not very promising. I have nothing to do with you. You are going to govern a huge country in the future. I really admire you. I respect you with this glass of wine! "

To be honest, Zhao Xu was also very excited to see a generation of Ci emperors. Later people all commented on Li Yu, a generation of Ci emperors.

There are two versions of the emperor in Ci. On the one hand, his Ci is really good, and on the other hand, he is the best in Ci.

Li Congjia (now he has not changed his name to Li Yu!) is said to be born on the seventh day of the seventh month of the lunar calendar, the folk Qiqiao Festival.

And when he died, it was also on the Qiqiao Festival, and it really had a beginning and an end. This cannot but be said to be a coincidence, a great coincidence.

In addition, he also has a great feature, that is, double pupils. According to records, there are only two people with double pupils, one is Emperor Shun, and the other is Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu.

In addition, there are already three people in Li Yu. Zhao Xu took a closer look and it was true. Li Congjia really had double pupils.

Double pupil is an eye disease in later generations, but at this time it is a manifestation of innate vision, this person must be extraordinary.

"Brother Gao is a businessman, I can't tell, but what Brother Gao said on the street really refreshed Li Liu."

Li Congjia still couldn't forget what Zhao Xu said: "The people are cowardly, even after they become soldiers, they will be cowardly as well."

"Brother Gao means that if a country wants to be strong, the people must have a backbone and a temperament, right?"

Li Congjia also looked a few years older than Zhao Xu, but he had lived in the royal family since childhood. When he was born, his father had just sat on the throne.

He really doesn't know some things about the people, because he has never really understood the sufferings of the people.

In his impression, governing the country only needs to be rich and the soldiers strong, and don't care about the rest.

"Brother Li, isn't it like this, as I said today, if the people of a country have no backbone at all, no matter how many soldiers there are in this country, they are useless, a group of soft bones, such people must be useless .”

"During the Warring States Period, the Seven Kingdoms competed for power. Why did the Qin Kingdom, which was considered barbaric, win the world in the end?"

Li Congjia also liked reading since he was a child. He has definitely read these things:
"That's because Qin has experienced Shang Yang's reform and gained a strong national power, which makes them capable of unifying the six countries."

These are all recorded in the history books, and Li Congjia has read them, so he can say them without any effort.

"Brother Li thinks so. Since you said it was Shang Yang's reform, did other countries have no reform? Also, Zhao Xu, Qin State was poor and weak before the reform, why was it not destroyed?"

You said that it was Shang Yang's reform, which has some truth. These are Qin's continuous growth of its own strength. Does it fight wars, not only relying on military strength?

But people seem to have forgotten one thing, and that is the backbone of the people of Daqin, to be proud of the old Qin, and to go to the national calamity together!
Jiu Jiu Lao Qin, restore my rivers and mountains.No blood shed, no truce.This is the military spirit of Daqin, and they all have an aura of never admitting defeat.

Even their common people are also prone to private fighting, and the people's customs are so strong that it can be seen that this is one of the reasons why they can become a powerful Qin army.

"Brother Li, do you think I'm right in saying this? People in later generations will no longer have such an aura of fearlessness, so there will no longer be such a powerful Qin soldier."

"Because the rulers like people who are more docile, it is easier to govern like this. The peace of your Southern Tang Dynasty lasted for a long time, and the people became more docile."

"Do you know what the people in Khitan look like now? All of them can mount a horse and hold a bow and arrow. They are all extremely sturdy, so they can gain a foothold in the northern grasslands, and they even endanger us from time to time. Central Plains."

What Li Congjia heard today is a brand new concept. The strength of the army is related to the people, so it must be handled properly.

"What about the folk customs of the Song Dynasty?" Li Congjia wanted to ask this matter. Since you said that the folk customs are related to the combat effectiveness of the army, I would like to know the folk customs of the Song Dynasty.

"After the Song Dynasty succeeded to the Zhou Dynasty, the people of the Central Plains have long been accustomed to the wars and chaos, so they all have the means to sign up in troubled times. Naturally, the folk customs are not as good as those of the Khitan, but they are much better than those of the Southern Tang Dynasty."

"As far as today's matter is concerned, there will definitely be someone who will come forward on Da Song's excuse. This is what I feel the most about."

In fact, there was one thing Zhao Xu didn't say, which was that there were not many yamen in the Song Dynasty who dared to do anything wrong.

Li Congjia was silent for a long time before he said:
"If the Great Song Dynasty attacks the Southern Tang Dynasty, how many chances do we have to defeat the Great Song Dynasty?"

"How do you ask me to answer this question? I can't afford to talk about state affairs indiscriminately. Just now I was talking about the past and the present, but now I am criticizing the reality. I don't have the courage yet."

Zhao Xu shook his head quickly, this kid can pretend, if you don't want to say it, why did you say so much just now!

"Brother Gao, it's okay, just treat this as a small talk between us, and you know my identity, so just treat it as a conversation between friends."

"Since Brother Li said this, I will tell you the truth. If what you say doesn't suit you, don't be offended!"

Zhao Xu knew that what he said was what Li Congjia didn't like to hear, so it was true.The truth is sometimes unbearable!

"Brother Gao, don't worry, I've already said it just now, just treat it as a small talk, and please tell Brother Gao that you can talk endlessly, I don't usually hear such things."

"Then I will offend you. If your country is compared with Da Song, to be honest, in terms of the current situation, there is no chance of winning at all. It's not a matter of being close, but a big difference."

What Zhao Xu meant was that you are not as good as Da Song, not as good as Da Song!
