Tie Xi looked down at Han Qi slightly, in just two months, this Lord Han has aged a lot, thinking that it is to handle the Zhending Defense War, although he did not go to the front to participate in the war, but for this old man's body, it is also a major consumption.Although he didn't deal with Han Qi, looking at Han Qi's appearance at this time, he was also quite sad, "Does Lord Han have a charter?"
”Zhao Zhen asked."
Your Majesty, Weichen already has a charter."
Han Qi handed the fold in his hand to the eunuch who came over.This is not a problem, Zhao Zhen agreed after a glance.The second paragraph of the correct play is about Jiang Jinxian.Because about the affairs of the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun, Tie Xi listened very carefully.The officials began to warp with each other and come up with ideas on how to get the sixteen states of Youyun at the lowest price to fulfill the dreams of everyone since the founding of the Great Song Dynasty.The civil officials said impassionedly, but Tie Xi listened to it, it was all a scene, and it had no substantive effect."
The army went north and drove out the Liao army, nothing more than that."
This is purely a show of the head, just after the war, the court has not yet eased its breath, and if the war starts again, it will be directly hit, is the cannonball enough?"
Send envoys to liaise with the tribes who are dissatisfied with the Liao State and let them attack the Liao army."
People are not stupid, how can they agree.But in the end, Wang Bao offered a plan, so that Zhao Zhen nodded secretly.He hit the idea on the Liao people.Now there are tens of thousands of Liao soldiers captured by the Great Song Dynasty, if these captives are used to persecute Liao, with the current situation of Liao, maybe they will really return some of the sixteen states of Youyun.With this part, give the Great Song Dynasty another year to buffer, and when the time comes, not to mention the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun, it is not impossible to destroy the Liao State.But the words of the online newspaper were unanimously opposed by Han Qi and others.The weaker the Liao people are, the more beneficial it will be to the Great Song Dynasty, and they must not overdraft the future of the Great Song Dynasty for the sake of a little benefit now, these tens of thousands of people are elite, and they must not be returned to the Liao State.After listening to the words of the officials and Han Qi, Tie Xi breathed a sigh of relief.Then there was a quarrel.It was also in the midst of this quarrel that the old story was brought up again.An imperial historian impeached Wei Chi Gong in Datong to resist the decree of disrespect, regardless of the results of the war, simply opened this example, how will the capital control the place in the future?
After hearing this, many generals were angry, if it weren't for the emperor, they were afraid of colliding with the emperor, and they would have already shot this imperial history.After listening to this, Wei Chigong's face was normal.He knelt down and shouted, "Your Majesty, please punish your ministers for their crimes." ”After Wei Chigong knelt down, Fu Ziying also hurriedly knelt down, and many generals also knelt down and shouted pleas.Zhao Zhen looked at Wei Chigong, both unbearable and complicated.Tie Xi glanced at his imperial grandfather, then looked at Wei Chi Gong, and sighed silently in his heart, if it wasn't for Wei Chi Gong to keep the peace, I am afraid that this Zhending defense battle will not achieve such a great result, for the entire northern situation, the Great Song Dynasty and the Liao State are really easy to attack and defend......
Zhao Zhen naturally wouldn't really do anything to Wei Chigong, even if he had other thoughts in his heart, he wouldn't show it at this moment.The issue of the placement of the Liao captives was arranged in the court, and all of them were disrupted, and Tie Xi arranged to send them to various parts of the Great Song Dynasty to build railways.This time the court meeting lasted for more than two hours, and Rao is Zhao Zhen drank the medicine to replenish his energy in advance, and he still couldn't hold on.After the court meeting was over, Tie Xi couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.In the shouts of the hundred officials, Tie Xi helped Zhao Zhen out of the hall.After returning to the dormitory, under the fiddling of the palace maid, he changed into regular clothes, and saw Zhao Zhen go to bed to rest before he could go back.When he arrives at night, he still has to attend the evening court, and that's where things are really discussed.Han Qi, Wang Zhizhong and other officials of the Great Song Dynasty are here.Tie Xi looked at Wang Zhizhong carefully, this middle-aged man with a poor appearance is a very capable person, it seems that he has no voice in this war with Liao, but in fact, he solved all the logistics and money.In the evening, Wang Zhizhong took out the detailed regulations of the pension, which was also drawn up by the Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of War, and the Ministry of Households, and let the imperial history of the Metropolitan Procuratorate be responsible for supervision.The list drawn up by the Ministry of War, 60,000 dead and 70,000 wounded, was carried out according to this standard of bereavement benefits.For this item, the household department will initially take out more than one million taels of silver, and the local government in the later period will definitely ask Kaifeng for various subsidies, and according to the preliminary inference of everyone, it will take out nearly two million taels of silver.The household department is responsible for allocating funds, the officials department is responsible for checking, the military department is responsible for distribution, and the metropolitan procuratorate is responsible for supervision, which is reasonable, legal and reasonable.But it took nearly half a year for the entire Great Song Dynasty to make money.The household servant thought that Zhao Zhen would consider it a little when he saw such a huge number, but he underestimated Zhao Zhen's attention to the sixteen states of Youyun, as long as the Great Song Dynasty could recover the sixteen states of Youyun, the money was just a number.No matter how much money he has, he can dial it, if he doesn't have it, he can ask for it, Tie Xi, the prince, can get it, will he be the emperor of the dynasty?
Zhao Zhen immediately ordered the eunuch with the palm seal to bring the jade seal, and issued a holy decree in the name of the emperor to determine the zombie's pension.When this matter was finalized, Tie Xi raised his head and looked at Wei Chigong and said: "General Wei Chi, I heard that the Hami side will carve stone tablets for the people who died in the battle in the places where they died in battle, and record all their names on it, so that when their children grow up, they can have a place to follow, and everyone can not forget the place where the heroes and martyrs are, can we also follow suit." ”After listening to this, Wei Chigong's eyes lit up, and he set up a monument to pass it on, and his name was passed down through the ages, which was not a better relief for the soldiers who died in battle.You have the list yourself, and this method is feasible.But after Wang Zhizhong listened, the whole person was stunned.Who gave the prince a bad idea?
Can Da Song and Hami be the same?
Not to mention how troublesome it is in the middle, the transportation of stones alone is a big project, plus a series of expenses such as recruiting craftsmen, hundreds of thousands of taels and millions of taels of silver flow out of the household treasury like flowing water.If you set up a monument to praise your merits, you can't just set up one in Zhending City, whether it is Anning to be erected, Xuanhua to be erected, Wangyun Pass to be erected, and whether the sixteen states of Youyun in the future will be even more erected, this is an astronomical number.And the military attachés of Wei Chigong and his party were even more excited.They were born in the military, so they knew very well what kind of impact they would have on the Great Song Dynasty if they could erect a monument to praise their merits.The status of the generals will be greatly improved, and after the death in battle, the family will be supported and the name will be passed down through the ages, so the combat effectiveness of the Song army will definitely increase significantly.When Wei Chigong was still thinking about the benefits, Wang Zhizhong stood up and said: "Your Highness, this matter is absolutely not good, the money and grain obtained by the household department every year has become empty at the end of the year, if you increase the expenditure again, I am afraid, I am afraid that there will be a deficit, once the deficit is not alleviated, the consequences will be extremely serious." ”Tie Xi nodded, then raised his head and looked at Zhao Zhen and said, "Grandfather Huang, now that the railway has the participation of this group of prisoners, the use of silver money is not so tense, but you can take out some of it and give it to the household department."
Zhao Zhen smiled, this matter was actually mentioned to him by Tie Xi when he came, considering that Hami had already done this kind of thing, and the effect was good, so there was no reason not to do it."
Since the prince has said that he wants to erect a monument and is consulting Wang Shangshu's opinion, then Wang Shangshu will play it right first, see if it is feasible, and then talk about other things."
After listening to Zhao Zhen's words, Wang Zhizhong had no choice but to respond and return honestly."
This matter, I have discussed it before, Hami has done a very good job, if it is implemented, my Great Song soldiers will definitely be more courageous when they kill the enemy."
Wei Chigong hurriedly said.Han Qi also came out and said: "The ministers also think that the prince's idea is feasible, if no one does it, it will be fine, but Hami has already done it, if I don't do it, I'm afraid it will affect the morale of the army." ”"The minister seconded the proposal."
The other minister nodded as well.After listening to the ministers' words, Zhao Zhen immediately laughed, then glanced at Tie Xi, nodded and said: "Since this is the case, I will not let the household department give out the silver, if you all think that the matter is feasible, I will personally pay this silver tael, and when the household department is rich, it will be transferred to the household department to execute." ”Wang Zhizhong was relieved when he heard that he would not let the household pay the silver taels.There are too many things in the Great Song Dynasty, and now it is the post-war period, and there are as many places to spend money, so he is only afraid that there is no silver tael in his hand, in case there is a water here, and there is a disaster there, and the household department will be helpless at that time, that is really a dereliction of duty.There was no war with Liao in a short period of time, and Tie Xi was idle.Every day is to read books, sleep, accompany Zhao Zhen to participate in the court meeting, and then go to monitor the progress of a circle of railways, and there is nothing more.A large number of generals such as Guo Ziliang and a group of Yan Yunfeng who participated in the war were also promoted.Above the court, I don't know how a gust of wind blew, saying that although His Majesty was old, he was getting closer to the destiny of heaven.Whether it is the victory of the war, or the commemoration of the soldiers, the meritorious monument and the immortal shrine are erected for the soldiers who died in the war, and this wind blows farther and farther.After the death of Yelu Chuqi, the Liao State's control of the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun was completely lost, and all the tribes began to listen to the tune and not listen to the announcement, consolidating their own territory, and there was a scuffle.Because of the great victory of the Great Song Dynasty, Jiang Jinxian's life in the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun was also slightly better.The new leader of the tribe was also very polite to Jiang Jinxian, and often took him to various banquets, eating meat and drinking, talking about things, and waiting for the envoys of the Song Dynasty.Although Jiang Jinxian's living conditions were better, the idea of returning to the Great Song Dynasty was not broken for a moment.The new leader of the clan is often consulted about starting a war with other clans.The new leader did not reply directly, he also wanted the Great Song Dynasty to send envoys to talk to him personally about the affairs of the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun, and then they could also sit on the ground and ask for more benefits for their tribes, but they waited for half a year.I didn't see the envoys of the Great Song Dynasty come here to discuss the recovery of the sixteen states of Youyun.If you don't come, I'll send someone.The new leader sent an envoy to the Great Song Dynasty, and when he arrived in Zhending City, he was driven back without delivering the letter.Don't they want to recover the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun, but they are still afraid that they will ask for a price.This made the new leader not understand at all, and he never said this to Jiang Jinxian, just thinking that the war was over, there were many things within the Great Song Dynasty, and the affairs of the sixteen states of Youyun could only be delayed.But the reality is different.
