Northern Song Dynasty Revitalization Strategy

Chapter 787 Han Shizhong went to Korea in person

Wei Chengen already knew about the White Tiger Army's plan to rebel. Although Wei Chengen was a brilliant commander, the two brothers Jin Fushi and Jin Fuzhe were very obedient. The reason was that the Song Dynasty was too close.

After learning of this fact, it became a matter of course for Wei Chengen to ask Han Shizhong to enter Korea.

Han Shizhong did not disappoint Wei Chengen's expectations of him. Once he arrived in Koryo, he first leveled the White Tiger Army, chopped off the head of the leading general, and hung it on the gate tower of Guanghuamen to warn those who have wronged thinking person.

"A group of cowards! Ge Laozi burned down [-] villages in Liaodong's fearful epidemic prevention. He has been poked and scolded by the people of Liaodong until his whole body is chilled. This group of white tigers are still playing the trick of letting the gold people enter the customs, grandma A leg." Han Shizhong walked into Kaijing city cursing.

Seeing the prosperous city of Kaijing, he reined in his horse and ran towards the gate of the city.

"Kaijing, Guanghuamen, Ge Laozi did not enter the wrong city, Admiral Wei did a good job." When Han Shizhong drove back, he looked at Wei Chengen with surprise on his face.

Han Shizhong did not expect that the Kaijing of Goryeo would become so prosperous in just one year.

The city wall alone has expanded five miles outward. The old city wall has become the inner city, while the outer city wall has become a large construction site. The roads are wide and there are countless pedestrians and merchants.

This is not the Kaijing in Han Shizhong's impression. In his impression, when the Kaijing was the largest in Goryeo, it was only a small city surrounded by ten miles.

Now it has become a city with a circumference of 35 miles, and several archways can be seen as far as the eye can see. It is already a city that is no less than the state capital of Dasong.

"The official family spent a lot of money in Koryo, and there is no improvement. It is really unreasonable. This time it is General Han who came here in person. I am really honored." Wei Chengen said with a smile.

Originally, Wei Chengen thought that Han Shizhong would send a lieutenant, such as Chen Xing, but unexpectedly he came in person.

"Admiral Wei doesn't know something. Liaodong County is easy to talk about. I'm afraid that the backyard will catch fire. And didn't Admiral Wei say that he has something important to discuss?" Han Shizhong said with a big laugh.

The defense of Liaodong County is extremely strict, and the defense of Shenzhou and Liaohe has been completed, a simple and crude but effective city wall.

An earthen city wall, a sentry tower five miles away, but any large-scale Jin people entering Liaodong County will be discovered.

For this wall, Han Shizhong even stopped the construction of the official new Shenzhou.

And Liaodong County also implemented the route of strengthening the walls and clearing the wilderness, drawing a no-man's land near the Liaohe River.

After a wave of propaganda about the God of Plague identified by the official Jinkou Yuyan, Han Shizhong set up a system of rewards for reporting. In order to win the trust of the people, Han Shizhong paid out of his own pocket, imitating what Shang Yang did when he made legislation, and set up a reward for silver dollars in Laizhou. Five hundred operations.

At the very beginning, the generals all felt that people's hearts were not ancient, and that standing up a pillar was not enough to win the trust of the people, but under Han Shizhong's insistence, the reward of five hundred silver dollars was finally distributed.

The effect is exceptionally good.

The people in Liaodong don't care about the figure of five hundred silver dollars, they only care about Han Shizhong's words.

This made Liaodong County's epidemic prevention to the extreme.

But Han Shizhong was very worried about Goryeo. If Goryeo was affected by the plague, and Haner of Goryeo passed it back to Liaodong County, all Han Shizhong's previous efforts and infamy would be in vain.

After receiving the news from Wei Chengen, he immediately dispatched troops, preparing to completely eliminate the potential threat of Korea before the deep winter.

Han Shizhong came to the Kaijing Palace and turned around, with regret and helplessness in his eyes.

Wei Chengen is the admiral of Goryeo, the actual ruler of Goryeo now, but his place of residence and office is actually in the palace where the servants live.The palaces of the Goryeo royal palace were cleaned, but no one used them.

As an eunuch, Wei Chengen pays more attention to the way of monarch and minister than others.

If Wei Chengen was not an eunuch, it would not be an exaggeration to rank among the three princes and nine ministers just for his trip to Korea, but he is an eunuch.

Of course, if Wei Cheng'en hadn't been an eunuch, the admiral would not be in his turn.

It's paradoxical, but also realistic.

"How is the situation in Korea now?" Han Shizhong asked after taking a sip of hot tea.

"After the Taisho incident, the situation in Koryo was relatively stable, but I didn't expect that something happened to the shipping. A few days ago, a merchant ship from Japan found several dead bodies. After the autopsy, they all died of the plague." Wei Chengen sighed. Said, take all precautions, prevent the land, but not the sea.

The tea cup in Han Shizhong's hand fell to the ground suddenly, and he stared and said, "You mean the country of Wa?"

Han Shizhong looked at Wei Chengen almost madly. The business relationship between Japan and Song Dynasty is very close, especially with Tangkou. Since the plague can reach Korea by boat, it can also go to Song Dynasty!

Maybe at this time Tangkou and Liangzhe Road have fallen into the crisis of plague.

Han Shizhong had experienced the plague himself, so of course he understood the horror of this disease, but if he was a little careless, he would be in big trouble!

"After learning about this situation, a certain person immediately sent a letter to the official, and also entrusted someone to send a letter to Fan Sheng, the prefect of Jinkou, and the Municipal Shipping Department. It is a hole that can block a hole. Thanks to It's winter, if something like this happens in summer..." Wei Chengen said helplessly.

Han Shizhong frowned and asked, "How did this disease come from the Japanese country? It's so strange."

Wei Chengen pointed to the location of Vladivostok on the Kanyu map and said: "The Kingdom of Jin fled to the sea, and many nobles came to the Kingdom of Wa by ships. It is estimated that these people brought them there. Although there is no news from the Kingdom of Wa, I am afraid that the plague has already spread. "

"Lifting a rock to shoot yourself in the foot?" Han Shizhong said dumbfoundingly: "I said, why did the Japanese government send 3000 million taels of silver to the government some time ago? The feeling is that King Toba knew the danger a long time ago?"

Wei Chengen nodded and said, "Probably so. Not to mention the Wa country, as long as Jinkou, Tangkou and the officials are aware of this matter, they will naturally respond."

"General Han came just in time. Yesterday Jin Fuzhe said that he wanted to disband Goryeo's army and rely entirely on the Song army to maintain its armaments. I've been thinking about this for a long time. Do you think it's okay?"

Han Shizhong tapped his fingers on the table. He came this time because he had learned of Wei Chengen's letter about Gaoli's arrangement, so he came here in person.

He was silent for a long time and asked: "Who is responsible for the supplies and soldiers' salaries?"

Since Wei Chengen mentioned this condition, he was naturally prepared, and said: "Temporarily, the Gaoli Treasury will be responsible. If one day Gaoli is in charge of all revenue and expenditure like my Dasong Prefecture, the state money will be responsible."

　Thanks to "another novice" for the reward, thank you for your support.
