Northern Song Dynasty Revitalization Strategy

Chapter 226 The Wounds of War

The negotiation was still going on, Yue Fei restrained his temper, he felt annoyed that he misjudged the person, and thought that Yu Wenxuzhong was from Song Dynasty, which would make the negotiation easier.

Unexpectedly, the more eloquent Song people brought the negotiations to a deadlock.

Wanyan Zongwang stood at the top of the city, watching Yu Wenxuzhong return to the pass indifferently.

He clearly knew that Yuwen Xuzhong was the real Chazi, and the evidence of Heishuisi was conclusive. Unfortunately, the situation has changed now. In the past, people in Song Dynasty could kill without scruple because they were cowardly, weak and cowardly.

The current Wufu of the Song Dynasty stood at the gate of the Kingdom of Jin, trying to exchange the master's child for a chance to pry open the gate.

Negotiations have stalled.

……

And Zhao Huan went deep into the countryside step by step, and found that Da Song was different from what he thought. Ignorance and backwardness are the main theme of this era.

But the Jin people went south, which brought even more terrible military disasters. Zhao Huan was already numb to the corpses on the roadside.Because there are too many.

Human tragedy.

"Everyone knows, do the villagers usually return to the village from this cliff?" way.

The plank road is an extremely luxurious choice in the mountains. It takes at least decades to make a plank road. It takes a long time to dig holes in the cliff and insert wooden stakes.

And this group of mountain people, year after year, lived on this foot-wide road, married wives and had children.

"Sun Shaozai's Zhazi mentioned this place, saying that they are antelopes. They live on the cliffs and move around like antelopes in the mountains. I didn't believe it at first, but it turned out to be true." Zhao Huan shook his head and said.

He had no intention of going up, because his reply to Sun Bo's boss was to move these antelopes down from the mountain.

History is always spiraling upwards, but Zhao Huan did not feel that the vast majority of the people in Song Dynasty did not get enough benefits because of the spiraling upwards of history.

For example, he saw the busy farmers in the fields, facing the loess and back to the sky, working with their own labor, but it was not even a problem to eat enough.

Da Song can indeed make three meals a day, and there is no doubt that he can even add some meat occasionally.

But that was in a good year, and in a bad year, they would still be troubled by soaring food prices.

And now is not a disaster year, but the Jin soldiers wantonly plundered and looted the food of the common people, Zhao Huan saw misery everywhere.

Contrary to what Zhao Huan thought, the Battle of Taiyuan lasted for nearly 200 days, and during these 200 days, the people on the entire Hedong Road were plundered.

The Jin soldiers did not stay under the city of Taiyuan all the time, but kept sending scattered soldiers to plunder.

This is why the antelopes built their villages on high mountains. They wanted to rely on geographical advantages to prevent the Jin people from plundering.

Slightly effective, but less effective.Zhao Huan has already seen several villages being slaughtered and looted.The bones of some people rotted on the stove.

Well, it's all over now.Yunzhong Road subdued it.

Zhao Huan clenched his fists tightly. He lived in a super prosperous world. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would never have imagined how miserable this world is.

He suddenly thought of the words of Zhong Shidao, the dead enemy is the best enemy.

If Changping Warehouse and Guanghui Warehouse hadn't caught fire, this young crop law, which has become a bit like a usury, can somewhat help the victims of the disaster.

However, the fire in Changping warehouse and Guanghui warehouse made the court lose the possibility of giving relief to the people.

Zhao Huan turned his head to look at Da Song Shanhe, who was starving for thousands of miles, and said to Zhao Ying: "I order Sun Shaozai and Li Dazai to drop some grain and grass as soon as possible, and use more money to buy some grain and grass from Jiangnan merchants."

"Officials, the Chen family in Huainan agreed to buy grain, and decided to send grain to Pingzhou before the money was received. The Cui family also played Shaozai, saying that if the official family needed it, they would go through fire and water and go through fire and water in the office. No excuses." Zhao Ying replied.

Zhao Huan nodded. Song Guozuo was only 160 years old, and his life was at the end of his life. Neither soldiers nor merchants had been completely corrupted.

Zhao Huan guessed that even if he didn't pay, the two rich merchants in Huainan and Huaibei would make up all the food and grass.

"Then let the Cui family supervise 2000 million grains to be sent to the East Road to help the victims of the war." Zhao Huan didn't mind giving these two rich merchants some grace.

He is the emperor, with a little blue eyes, even if he doesn't say a good word, their business in Song Dynasty will definitely be smooth sailing.

"There are also two roads on Hebei West Road and Hebei East Road. After driving away the Jin people, they also look like this, officials." Zhao Ying said with her head bowed.

"Then let's add another 2000 million. Let the Chen and Cui families pay attention to the price of grain." Zhao Huan shook his head, the Changping warehouse on Hedong Road was on fire, and the Hebei East Road and Hebei West Road would not be on fire?

What's more, Wanyan Zongwang's crimes in Hebei Road are no less than that of Hedong Road, and the situation of Hebei Two Roads may be worse than that of Hedong Road.

After all, there are still many mountains in Longyou, Hedong Road, and the villagers can still rely on the geographical advantages to stop the looting of the Jin people.

But Hebei Road is all plains, and the people there are even more miserable.

Wan Yan Zongwang's looting was still in Yizhou after Yue Fei attacked Yanmen Pass and fled in a hurry.

And Wanyan Zongwang's looting is still in the camp next to Bianjing.

After several defeats in battle, the looting Jinren did not get any benefits.

War is never merciful, it can only bring pain, both sides fight life and death, and in the end they starve to death everywhere.

To fight a war is to commit crimes.

"Prefect Yang received a good news two days ago, saying that he has acquired more than [-] stallions." Zhao Ying put aside the mound, and he was cooking Zhao Huan's lunch today, a whole sheep stewed in soil.

After peeling the antelope, sprinkle lamb wine to remove the fishy smell, and spread the mixed onion, ginger, garlic, aniseed, salt, and tea ingredients evenly.

Wrap it with a few rolls of thick paper, paste mud on the outside, fill the surroundings with firewood, and burn it all morning. After the fire is extinguished, knock the mud open, and there will be delicious food in the world.

The antelope was hunted by Zhao Ying himself, and the seasonings were stored in the dining cabinet on the dining car. This kind of firewood can be found everywhere in this mountain.

"Mutton can warm the body and tonify the deficiency, nourish the body and nourish qi, appetize and keep fit, and benefit the kidney qi. The Supreme Emperor liked to eat mutton, and it became popular later on. Officials eat more." Zhao Ying put the cut mutton in front of Zhao Huan .

"Cut some mutton and send it to Wang Jin, Shen Cong, and Hu Yuan." Zhao Huan waved his hand and said.

Zhao Huan couldn't eat this roasted whole lamb at all, and it was a sign of grace in the army to share it with his subordinates.

It is to buy people's hearts.

"And bring two pairs of rhino horns to Yang Yizhong, and order him to continue looting." Zhao Huan tasted it, and it tasted good. The dining car is really a good thing. At least Zhao Huan doesn't have to roll meat slices every day.

War will bring scars, but if there is no war, it will bring more than just pain, it will destroy the country, and people will die.

Those who love war will die, and those who forget war will be in danger.

War, as long as the battlefield is in another country.

"The officials have some more porridge. They boiled all morning and it's all rotten. It's just right." Zhao Ying brought the porridge again.

Zhao Huan nodded. After Da Song occupied Qingtang, there were Qingtang horses.

Zhao Ji, the emperor who knows how to enjoy himself, likes to eat mutton very much. If there is something good in the top, it must be bad in the bottom. All the land encircled by the horse government in the inland Song Dynasty were raised with sheep.

Zhao Huan shook his head, Zhao Ji is really not suitable to be an emperor, he likes mutton, and the Song Dynasty didn't even have a decent horse army in the Mainland.

After a hundred years of peace, the Jin people went south this time, which would have a strong impact on the Song Dynasty. Whether it was military or political and ideological, it was completely an unknown direction.

He needs to carefully grasp the big direction.

Emperor, it's not that easy.Especially want to be a Mingjun.

"Officials, the empress has arrived in Taiyuan Mansion." Zhao Ying said cautiously seeing that the official's family was full and in a good mood.

"Understood." Zhao Huan was disappointed, he had to face what had to be faced.No matter how much she does, Zhao Huan can't hold this queen high and put it down gently.

There are many rules in this world, and they will not change just because Zhao Huan is the emperor.If there is no punishment this time, it will leave endless troubles for future generations.

　Four changes are expected today, to settle the crowdfunding rewards in June. After a little calculation today, about ten chapters may need to be added.Add a little bit more every day, so that you don't have enough money when it comes to settlement.
