Chapter 629 The King is My Lord
Zhao Yulin asked his brothers to look and said with a smile: Our grassland cavalry will be forced to go to the sea to fight.
All the generals burst into laughter when they heard this.
Miao Gui's comprehensive intelligence analysis shows that the Hubli Group in the north is likely to move westward in a large scale to quell Ali Buge's rebellion.
Yang Xingyun said that the intelligence from Shunfeng Division was very detailed, and they found that the enemy was moving westward, and all the military workshops in the important cities in Liaodong were relocating. This situation did not seem like they were just sending troops to suppress the rebellion, but rather a planned abandonment of Liaodong, and the Goryeo troops they stationed were also withdrawing.
Zhao Yulin nodded and said: They have recently sent a large number of envoys to Chengdu. They must have felt that the new Song Dynasty is strong, and it will be difficult for them to take advantage of us.
The brothers laughed heartily again and assured him in a resolute voice that they would never let the Mongolian army set foot into the Great Wall again.
He nodded happily and asked his brothers to accompany their families for a walk and have a good rest for half a month before discussing military affairs.
After the generals left, Miao Gui and Yang Xingyun said anxiously that if the Mongolian army went west , Hubli would definitely defeat Alibuga. In this way, the territory of Chagatai Khanate that we recovered would most likely fall into Hubli's pocket, so we must prepare for it.
Miao Gui said: This matter must be handled quickly, so we can only transfer the garrison troops from Chengdu, as well as the soldiers from Chamdo and Qingtang City.
He ordered a transfer, and Chengdu let Guoan lead 20,000 garrison troops. Guoan had lived in Chengdu for a long time, and it was time for him to go out and make achievements. Otherwise, his brothers would accuse him of nepotism and giving Guoan a leisurely life.
Yang Xingyun and Miao Gui said in unison: Brothers, we will follow the young master's lead and have no second thoughts.
He waved his hand, nodded with a smile, and asked them to report to the King of Feiyan. The King is responsible for managing everything, from east to west, from north to south, and from center to center. We must establish a complete set of rules from now on to plan for the long-term stability of the New Song Kingdom.
Both of them nodded.
In front of the Yuguan Gate at the entrance of the Great Wall in the northeast, the New Song Dynasty and the Grassland Empire were exchanging hostages.
The New Song Kingdom fulfilled its promise and exchanged the plump and healthy Shi Tianze for the pale-faced, shivering princess Zhao Ruilan of the previous dynasty who was shivering in the cold wind.
The woman got off the shabby carriage and burst into tears when she saw the eye-catching words "Yuguan" at the entrance of the Great Wall. Two female soldiers came forward and helped her walk into the gate. After she changed into clothes, she immediately looked different.
When this man put on a gorgeous set of New Song Dynasty clothing, his energy and spirit quickly increased tenfold, and his temper also improved.
Zhao Ruilan kept calling out "this princess" and "this princess" and bossed the soldiers around her around. Who could stand it after a while? Li Tan, the chief general of the Shandong Army stationed in Yanjing, replied to her coldly: At present, there is only Princess Zhao Feiyan in the New Song Dynasty, and the Princess Feiyan is the only princess of the New Song Dynasty that our Third Young Master has decided to marry.
The rest are just common people who are just shouting and playing for fun. If Miss Ruilan doesn't believe me, just go take a walk around Yanjing City and take a look. There are so many princesses in this city.
Zhao Ruilan was confused.
What? When she was abducted, she was still a legitimate princess of the Song Dynasty. When she was ridden by those money wolves in the desert, they all laughed and called her princess. How come she is nothing now that she is back in Song territory?
At that time, Zhao Feiyan was the only princess in the world, and her father's illegitimate daughter was respected by the whole world as a princess of a great country and even the ruler of a country.
But she, a biological, genuine princess, was nothing.
Isn't this confusing right and wrong?
The woman was filled with anger and hatred. She was furious and threw the tea bowl to the ground, starting her violent and violent mode of smashing anything she saw. The room was filled with crackling sounds.
Zhao Ruilan screamed hysterically: She is the princess of the New Song Dynasty, Zhao Yulin should belong to her, and she is the ruler of the New Song Dynasty.
At that time, the queen mother wanted to send this girl to Western Shu to marry Zhao Yulin as a princess. However, she was afraid of the barbarians in Shu and refused to go. She knelt down at the queen mother's knees and cried three times, begging for her to be spared.
The Queen Mother loved her granddaughter so much that she let her stay in the palace and continue playing. However, she didn't expect that while she was playing, she was captured and taken to the desert.
Seeing that this crazy woman didn't recognize her relatives and had lost her normal mind, Li Tan urged them to load themselves onto a warship and send them directly to Chengdu.
However, the arrival of Wu Jing, Zhu Fugui, Chen Liu and Jin Zhu made Li Tan receive them with great care and respect. When he learned that the two young couples were going to pay tribute to their brother, Ma Yuan accompanied them throughout the whole process, and he kept reflecting on how he had let down Commander Zhao and the King of Feiyan. He had let down the Zhao sisters.
Wu Jing and Chen Liu are very well-behaved. Uncle Li and Uncle Li really treat Li Tan as their elder. They also ask Uncle Li not to take it to heart. Their brother is guarding and is making sacrifices for them.
Li Tan was moved by the fact that these kids were so sensible. They were the princesses and princes of the new Song Dynasty. His heart, which had been hanging in his throat, finally settled down in his chest.
Ever since Ma Yuan was injured , he felt guilty and was always worried. In the eyes of the generals, including him, Ma Yuan was a figure of the crown prince, so how could he have lost his life in his hands? They believed that the third young master would definitely blame him.
Unexpectedly, when Yang Xingyun went to summarize the gains and losses , he not only did not criticize him, but also praised the Shandong army for their bravery in front of Feng Guiqi. The third young master personally instructed: Those who have made merit should be rewarded.
This guy felt guilty, until Zhao Yulin's children, daughter-in-law, and son-in-law came to him respectfully and called him Uncle Li, and he knew that the Zhao family really didn't care, and then he felt relieved.
Shi Tianze outside the Shanhai Pass was quite different. He was picked up by a group of old subordinates and ran for a hundred miles to live in a luxurious tent, where he hugged a beautiful girl and drank to vent his feelings. After waking up, he murmured: He can never go back.
Shi Tianze knew very well that even if Zhao Yulin of the Shenwei Army kept him, the Cao Gang disciples would not tolerate him.
When this guy was caught, so many people around knew that he was the one who strangled Cao Shaoqing, the leader of the Cao Gang. There were so many brave men in the Cao Gang that they not only ate his flesh and drank his blood, but also tore off his bones and burned them as firewood to vent their anger.
His subordinates told him that the Khan had no intention of blaming him at all. Instead, he sent him beautiful girls, gold, silver and countless rare treasures.
Shi Tianze naturally understood what Hubili meant, which was to make him continue to work hard for the empire. He immediately acted according to Hubili's instructions and mobilized and drove the formation to the west.
In the Mobei royal court, Hubili was reviewing memorials. This guy was governing the country according to the Han emperor's model and had made considerable progress compared to his predecessor.
However, the new Song Kingdom rose to prominence in the south, and the imperial army was defeated repeatedly, leaving him with little time. What troubled him most was that there was no unified and standardized writing system on the grassland.
This was also due to Zhao Yulin's interception of Ba Si, a Tibetan who was originally going to join him in Gansu. This guy had studied grassland culture for many years and had compiled a set of standardized grassland writing for him based on the Tibetan writing.
Ba Riding with his latest achievement, he set out from Lhasa City on behalf of his master and came to Gansu via Qinghai. He found that the New Song Dynasty was an ideal society where everyone was equal. The cities along the way were undergoing earth-shaking changes. He felt that Zhao Yulin, who ruled the country as a republic, was more reliable.
The girl stopped in Lanzhou and was full of praise for the thriving city.
Zhao Yulin then invited him to travel to Guanzhong, Hanzhong, and Baoning Prefecture. After debating with local monks, he was convinced that Tubo should follow Zhao Yulin, the leader of the Shenwei Army.
Naturally, his many years of research results were discarded.
Hubili was in a miserable situation. Without decent grassland writing, it was very tiring for him to read memorials. He also met some princes and generals whose self-study ability was too poor, and the memorials they wrote were like ghost paintings. He really couldn't understand them, so he had no choice but to throw them on the ground.
His personal guard, Brother Dong, had returned and was waiting by his side. He carefully picked up the things and put them away for him and said: It seems that the Khan should promote Chinese characters. The characters used by each tribe are like incomprehensible books. It will be easy if we unify the characters.
Since it is a country, how can it not have its own writing system? Moreover, the grassland empire already has a writing system. Hubili did not adopt Brother Dong's opinion, but asked the attendant in front of the tent to pass on the message to Taiji Academy, asking the academy to concentrate on research and create a grassland writing system that is convenient for writing for the empire.
This guy felt tired, so he closed his eyes, lay on his back on the dragon chair and asked his elder brother Dong: What is the New Song in the south doing?
Dong Qinwei said that he sorted out the secret letters and newspapers sent back by the secret guards, and saw in summary that the New Song Kingdom in the south was launching a major water conservancy project. They wanted to overhaul the Dujiangyan Irrigation System, the Ling Canal, and the Zhengguo Canal. These water conservancy hub projects had previously taken several years or even more than ten years to build.
If the New Song Dynasty wants to overhaul itself, it will definitely cost a lot of national strength and require a large number of civilian workers to complete.
Hubili's frown relaxed a lot, and he said with a smile: "It's good for Xinsong to do this, at least he can relax a little this year. Zhao Yulin should do these things well, and it won't take him even a year."
Dong Qinwei reported confidently: The New Song Kingdom keeps talking about overhauling the Dujiangyan Irrigation System, but that is just a lot of noise with little substance. The Dujiangyan Irrigation System must be opened for irrigation during the Qingming Festival, which means there is only a maximum of half a year for maintenance. How much can be done?
Others like Lingqu Canal and Zhengguo Canal can be repaired slowly over three to five years without any problems.
Hubili said happily: He would be happy to see Zhao Yulin staying in Dujiangyan every day to build water conservancy projects and never leave for the rest of his life.
Dong Qinwei laughed at himself and thought to himself, what a joke, the Khan was daydreaming.
He continued to report: "New Song sent 20,000 catties of fine iron, and we also sent all the horses over. The fine iron ingots were numbered and the names of the foundry craftsmen, and the quality was excellent. They kept their promise."
Hubili said that Zhao Yulin would not lie, and we are not allowed to tamper with our horses. Right now we can only rely on this channel to quickly obtain a large amount of refined iron. If it is blocked by the New Song Dynasty, it will be too late even if we send troops to seize Daming Prefecture.
Dong's personal guard nodded in agreement and reported to him that the people of the New Song Dynasty were very careful. According to the secret guards, all the horses sent over were checked one by one and raised separately, as they were worried that we would cheat and put sick horses in.
