Chapter 245: Liaodong Road
The fragrance of tea mixed with the smell of someone's feet floated in Mr. Murong's room.
The conversation in the room continued, and Wu Haogu was still peddling his "Suzhou project", gushing about the benefits of seizing the Liao Dynasty Peninsula.
In addition to occupying this sea trade point, there will be no shortage of money, Wu Haogu also proposed another benefit - Liaodong is a separate "road"!
If it is to cut Liao from the sea and land, it is inevitable to set up a new "Liaodong Road". It is impossible to let the "Yanshan Road" take care of the affairs of the "Liaodong Road", and this "Liaodong Road" is across the sea from the Song Dynasty itself, and the degree of freedom must be very high, and there can be a large number of state military envoys below.
In other words, as long as you hold the "Liaodong Road" in your hand, you can seal out a bunch of generals like the Fuzhou Folding Family.
Moreover, Liaodong is also rich, the land is fertile, the products are rich, and it is an important maritime trade town, as long as it is well managed, there will be no shortage of money.
With money, land, and property, a "private military state" such as Fuzhou can naturally arrange more and can afford it.
At that time, there will be one Ma family, one Murong family, and one Ximen family...... There are other homes that can also be arranged. In short, the rest of the family will be better.
In addition, there is also an advantage that the goal of occupying Liaodong is small, and it is not as dazzling as holding the sixteen states of Yanyun.
If Yanyun is to be moved, then the Khitans will definitely work hard. Moreover, the situation of the Yan family is also complicated, now that the Ma family and the Great Song Dynasty have a little contact, the Zhao family and the Liu family's intentions have not been guessed. As for the Yutian Han family, which is the third in Da Liao...... Even if it can be pulled, I am afraid that the price paid is staggering.
The most important thing is that the strength of the Murong family, the Ximen family, and even the Yiwu Lushan Ma family is very poor compared with the Han family and the Zhao family. Even if Yan Yun can seal the envoys, it is also the Han, Zhao and Liu families, and the Ma family may be able to share some profits, but it is impossible for retainer-level wealthy families like Murong and Ximen to get involved.
Moreover, it is unlikely that the Great Song Dynasty will tolerate the appearance of a feudal town in the sixteen states of Yanyun - the story of Yuyang Mo coming from the ground at the instigation, will the Emperor of the Zhao family forget?
"Mr. Forget Worries," Wu Haogu said vigorously, shaking his head, almost shaking his feather fan, "In the next opinion, the chaos of the Liao Kingdom will start in the Jurchen and Bohai Sea!" Because the Han clan of the Liao State actually benefited from the Khitan, the Yutian Han family is analogous to the royal family, and the Zhao family of Zhenzhou is the prince of the dynasty, which is the Ma and Liu clans, and it is also the gate of the dignified Shiqing, who raised an army against the Liao, what is the plan?
As for the divination clan, although they are brave, they are too closed, as long as the iron ban is not broken, it is difficult for the people of divination to really rise in the grassland. Moreover, it has been six or seven years since the Divination Rebellion, countless people have died on the grassland, and the vitality of the Mogus Department has been greatly damaged, and it is impossible to have the strength to sweep the Great Liao.
In a certain thought, only the Jurchen Wanyan Bohai right surname may be revealed. And once they raise troops, Tokyo Road will inevitably be in chaos, and Liaoyang may change hands. As soon as Liaoyang is lost, Suzhou, Fuzhou, Ningzhou, Baozhou, Xuanzhou, Muzhou, Dingzhou and other places will be isolated from the hinterland of Liao......
The matter of the Northern Expedition to Yanyun is actually difficult for Wu Haogu to be sure.
If Emperor Zhezong and Zhang Dian were to do it, the possibility of success in the Liao invasion should be quite large. Zhezong couldn't do anything at all, and Zhang Dian wouldn't play "Fengheng Yuda" and spend all the money he had scavenged. If you concentrate on rectifying Hebei, accumulate strength, and wait for the Liao State to be in turmoil before sending troops, how can you not succeed?
But the decision on this matter is not in Wu Haogu, but in Lord Yama!
Emperor Zhezong didn't have a few days to live, and even if Zhang Dian was not unlucky by then, he would never have survived to the Xuanhe Northern Expedition.
Therefore, most of the Xuanhe Northern Expedition will still be played by Song Huizong, Tong Guan, and Cai Jing...... Wu Haogu himself didn't want to insert a pole, because the water was too deep and too deep.
Therefore, Wu Haogu now wants to open up a situation in Liaodong...... He vaguely remembered that there seemed to be a "Bohai Restoration" incident in history, where a Bohai nobleman with a high surname occupied Liaoyang and became independent, and later seemed to be destroyed by Wanyan Agu.
If the Liaodong Peninsula can be used as a base to support the Bohai Kingdom, and let this Bohai Kingdom exist for a few more years, the Liaodong Road of the Great Song Dynasty may be able to exist......
And with Liaodong Road, can the Jurchens still break through the south so easily and sweep Kaifeng?
If the Jurchens want to go south, they should always attack the cities of Liaodong first, right? Otherwise, the Jurchen will go straight to Kaifeng Mansion, and Liaodong Road will go straight to Huanglong Mansion.
Listening to Wu Haogu's gushing analysis, Ma Zhi was already a little stunned. Wu Haogu's words sound very reasonable!
This guy looked stupid at first, but now why is he getting more and more capable? According to this trend, Wu Haogu will not become a big official in the Southern Dynasty, right?
Murong Wang's cloudy eyes also shot out of essence, and after watching Wu Haogu finish talking about his idea, he asked lightly: "Pan Dianzhi, is this your idea, or is it Zhang Xianggong's idea?" ”
Such an obviously well-thought-out method obviously could not have been thought up by "Pan Xiaoyi", a kid who didn't have any hair on his mouth.
It must be the trick of the traitorous minister of the Great Song Dynasty - because this idea is really treacherous!
"It's Zhang Xianggong's idea." Wu Haogu naturally did not dare to take credit.
And this merit can't be lived, he is going to live, and Old Man Murong and Ma Zhi may not necessarily obey.
If it was from Chapter, it would be different.
"I see." Old man Murong stroked his beard and nodded slightly.
He didn't expect to be fooled, but he didn't let go right away. "It's better like this, the old man and you will go back to Kaifeng Mansion and see Xianggong Zhang."
Want to see Zhangdun ?
Isn't this going to be a goof!
Wu Haogu was stunned, and when he didn't know whether to agree or refuse, Ma Zhi interjected on the side: "When the family teacher was in his prime, he served as a Zhongjin sergeant, and the official was too often Shaoqing, Qianwen Pavilion was to be systematized, and the prince was accompanied by him. Later, although he was implicated by Prince Zhaohuai and lost his official position, he has always been a famous Confucian in Liao, and he is also a confidant of the old lady of the Zhao family, and he has a lot of knowledge of the domestic situation in Liao. ”
It turns out that this Mr. Murong, who looks like he is about to get old and confused, is also wide!
If you can bring him back to Kaifeng Mansion, it will be a great achievement!
As for that lie, there should be a way to say that it is round......
Wu Haogu had already made up his mind, nodded and said, "That's really unbelievable." Saying that, he pointed to the "Great Confucian" Zhong Ge'er again, "Brother Zhong will also go south together." Brother Zhong went to Kaifeng to be surnamed Zhao in a dignified manner, and with Brother Zhong'er's ability, it was not difficult to make a name for himself in the south. ”
Brother Zhong listened to Wu Haogu's words, immediately turned around, bowed to Wu Dalang and said, "Pan Guanren, I have offended a lot, and now I apologize to you." If you can really enter the family tree of Wei Gong, you will be a great benefactor below. ”
Wu Haogu also bowed his hand and replied with a smile: "What are you talking about?" If I can find a hero like Brother Zhong for me, I will not be able to make another contribution! ”
"Okay, good," Ma Zhi clapped his hands and said with a smile, "Brother Zhong'er's 'one word' has finally been settled, congratulations!"
By the way, Dalang, there is one more important thing to do today. ”
"Matter?" Wu Haogu asked, "What's the end?" ”
"It's a portrait of Prince Zhaohuai." Ma Zhi smiled, "Didn't Da Lang forget this stubble?" ”
"Prince Zhaohuai......" Wu Haogu thought for a while, and then turned his gaze to Murong Wang, "After so many years, the old gentleman still remembers the appearance of Prince Zhaohuai?" ”
Mr. Murong smiled bitterly: "Of course I remember!" Some people's appearance is something that the old man will never forget for the rest of his life! ”
……
Yanjing City, Ganquanfang, Ma Zhi Mansion.
Just when Wu Haogu followed Ma Zhi to Xiangshan Academy to meet Mr. Murong, a great monk quietly arrived.
The visiting monk was none other than the horse monk who lit the lamp, and he came here to meet Tong Guan and Ji Yi on behalf of the Ma family of the medical witch Lushan Mountain.
He didn't come empty-handed, but brought a well-depicted full map of "Daliao Nanjing Road" and gave it to Tong Guan and Ji Yi.
Now the map was unfolded in front of Tong Guan, and the big mink looked at it carefully, and there was a joy on his dark face that could not be concealed.
On this picture, Yanjing City is actually as close as the boundary river! If you go north along the Sanggan River, there is only one city in Wuqing on the way. As for the navigable ability of the Jiehe-Sanggan River, Tong Guan had already experienced it on the way to Yanjing.
Even the sea boats from Liaodong can sail, let alone the building ships with a shallow draft. If we can build an inland river fleet, along the Yellow River-Jiehe-Sanggan River, and reach the bottom of Yanjing City...... In the future, the battle of Yan should be the victory!
Ji Yi also had irrepressible joy in his heart, although he didn't see the Ma Renwang and Ma Renjie of the Ma family in Lushan, but the map of Nanjing Road donated by the Ma family obviously showed the heart of the Great Song Dynasty.
Now the question is just how much strength does the Ma family have and their asking price?
In terms of strength, Ji Yi felt that there should be some, and it was conceivable that the Ma family could monopolize a square in Yanjing City.
And the Ma family is a big family that can "buy" the festival envoys, if there are not enough clan soldiers, can't you just buy a few more festival envoys?
Isn't it just money!
"Master," Tong Guan had already spoken at this time, "what conditions do your Ma family want?" ”
Monk Ma Da had already discussed with Ma Renwang and Ma Renjie the words of the response, and immediately smiled: "Actually, since my ancestors were held and the family moved to Yiwu Lu Mountain, I have been in Nanwang Wangshi. If Master Wang can really come, my family will not be happy, so why will he put forward conditions?
It's just that among the four Yan families, the strength of my Ma family is actually the smallest, and it can't be compared with the Yutian Han family, the Zhenzhou Zhao family and the Shenzhou Liu family. Among the three of them, the Han family is the third surname of Daliao after Yelu and Xiao, and the ancestors of the Zhao and Liu families have served as envoys of Youzhou Festival. If these three families are to be converted, I am afraid that ...... Three festival towns are indispensable! ”
