Chapter 984: The Emperor Who Owns the Four Seas - Convince People with Reason
On the north shore of the Kara Lake, a particularly large swastika flag flutters in the autumn wind.
Under the banner of the swastika, it is a big tent in the style of eating Persia, and I don't know if it belongs to Lion Khan or Sanjar? But now this place belongs to the Great Sect Decree Zhangyuan.
Zhang Yuan, who was sitting in the big tent, couldn't hide his smile on his tanned face.
What a victory!
Although this battle has been fought for a long time, it has been two years since Ma Zheng and Xiao Heda led their troops out of Shazhou to the west. But in the end, he still played a complete victory with a big increase in national prestige. Although the Turkic thief who invaded China, Kosanjar, escaped, Aslan Khan, who descended from the peach blossom stone, is now waiting outside the big tent. The emir of Western Tajikistan and the emir of the Gur, as well as the general of Sanjar, Kujima, sent envoys to ask for surrender.
In addition, countless Qarakhanids, Persians, and Ghazni were taken prisoner, and now they are all sitting in the steppe on the southern shore of the Kara Lake, waiting for the help of the Great Sect Decree.
As for the seized cattle, sheep, horses, weapons, tents, and all kinds of property, there are countless more.
Moreover, according to the report of Mihadiye, who was sent by Aslan Khan to ask for surrender, the most powerful force in the west and south of the Green Ridge was the weak-looking Sanjar. Mihadiye also said that the battle had knocked out at least half of Sanjar's strength.
If the Great Song Heavenly Soldiers wanted to take advantage of the victory to cross the Green Ridge and attack Tianzhu or Persia, they would definitely be able to win a big victory.
In other words, the prestige of the Great Song Heavenly Khan, no, is not prestige, but real power, which can cross the green ridge and enter Persia and Tianzhu.
With this, today's Zike surpassed the Yizu and Emperor Taizong of this dynasty and became the first Ming monarch in China since ancient times.
However, in addition to being able to have fun and spend money, there doesn't seem to be much ambition in today! How did you surpass Yizu and Taizong? Zhang Yuanxin said: This is about vertical arch rule, right? The real famous monarch and hero, the first emperor of the ages!
"Zhao Liuhou," Zhang Yuan put away his thoughts, and then looked at Zhao Zhongshun, who also had a happy face, with a smile, "What do you think?" How will this lion Khan, as well as those Qarakhanid people outside, be settled? β
Zhao Zhongshun smiled and arched his hand: "Xiaguan Yijie Wufu, how can you have a claim on such a thing?" I obeyed the arrangement of the Great Teaching. β
Zhang Yuan stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Since you want the official to be the master after staying, then the official will also be the master."
Let's start with the refugees of the Qarakhanids. We are now halfway through the army, and it is more than 300 miles to go back. It is more than 400 miles forward, and after walking, you can enter the jurisdiction of the Persian Governor of the old Tang Dynasty...... Now it is called the territory of the emir of Raush, Khorasan. Once there, it's easy to find food.
According to this official, it is better to take the refugees southwest into the jurisdiction of the Persian Governorate. It's easier to find food there than it is to find food in Kashgar! There is no one to cultivate the Shule Oasis now, and the grain in the city has also been looted by Aslan Khan, and the people who remain there still do not know what to eat? You can't bring more than 100,000 people back. Even if they want to go back, they will only be able to feed them when the Shule Oasis recovers. β
The towns of Shule and Khotan have been reduced to battlefields in the past two years, but they have suffered great losses and will not be able to recover without a few years or even more than a dozen years of recuperation.
"That's all it can be." Zhao Zhongshun nodded, these captured armed refugees could not be sent back to the Shule Oasis for the time being...... First, there is no food; Second, it is not necessarily reliable. In case of trouble in the Shule Oasis, the plan of the Hexi Army to enter Tianzhu will be delayed.
In addition, the refugees of the Qarakhanid Dynasty are "Taohuashi people" after all, and they are more reliable than the Persians, Ghazni and Tianzhu people, right?
"Aslan Khan is definitely going to enter the court." Zhang Yuan continued, "He is now the king, and the treatment should be similar to Meng Chang and Li Yu. β
It doesn't look like it's going to end well...... Zhao Zhong said happily: Fortunately, my brother has some strength, otherwise he would have ended up like Li Yu!
"Then send him to the court." Zhao Zhongshun glanced at Mihadiye who was standing there, this person is a baby! He is familiar with Persian, Tianzhu and Dashi, and can also speak Persian, Turkic, Dashiyu, Kipchak and Chinese. Take him south to Tianzhu, but you get twice the result with half the effort!
"Great Sect," Zhao Zhongshun pointed to Mihadiye, "this Heavenly Sect is a learned person, and he understands the situation in Western countries, can he stay in the lower official army?" β
According to the plan, the soldiers and horses of Zhang Yuan and the Great Education Regiment will not enter Tianzhu. They will return to the Shule Oasis after cleaning up the battlefield, and open feudal academies, Buddhist temples and Taoist temples in the Shule Oasis, Yache Oasis, Khotanese Oasis and other places, and begin to spread and exchange with the principle of equality and harmony among all religions.
"It's fine." Zhang Yuan nodded and said to Mihadiye, "Imam, you will follow Zhao Tongjun into Tianzhu!" Although Zhao Tongjun is a disciple of the Buddha, he will not oppress the Heavenly Sect...... Our Great Song Dynasty has always paid attention to the harmony of all religions, and harmony is precious, do you understand? β
"Understand, the little ones are also Song people!" Mihadiye said, "Since we should follow the harmony of the religions of the Great Song Dynasty, I will also teach the imams below to obey it." β
"It doesn't matter if they're not convinced," Zhang Yuan smiled, "Let them come to the Great Sect, and someone will reason with them." β
As he spoke, Zhang Yuan pointed to the statue of Confucius holding a sword with angry eyes hanging in the big tent, and said warmly: "We Confucians have always used virtue to convince people and reason to convince people. β
Zhao Zhongshun also echoed, "Yes, yes, yes, convince people with reason, convince people with reason...... The indoctrination group is the best at convincing people with reason. This official is deeply experienced! β
Mihadiye glanced at the statue of Confucius and said in his heart: It is all the cowardice and uselessness of the Confucianism of the Han people, and now it seems that it is completely a rumor! Their Confucian prophet seemed to be a powerful man, and he must have been a brave knight!
Zhang Yuan touched his beard and said, "Imam, you go and invite Aslan Khan, as well as the envoys of the Western Tajiks and Gurs, as well as the envoys sent by the general of Sanjar."
This official met them and told them about the truth of our Great Song Dynasty! β
The truth that Zhang Yuan wants to talk about today is very simple! There is no cosmic origin, there is no unity between heaven and man, and there is no rational exploration of heavenly principles.
Some only accept it, or do they not accept it?
If you obey it, then you will be called a minister, pay tribute, send hostages, and accept the canonization of the Great Song Dynasty!
If you are not convinced, then continue to fight until you are convinced!
In addition, if you choose to be convinced, you have to be the king's precursor! With the army of Zhao Zhongshun and Xiao Heda, he fought into Persia (referring to Afghanistan) and Tianzhu, all the way to Lahore, the capital of the Ghazni Dynasty.
β¦β¦
The great victory of Karahu and the capture of Kashgar City, as well as the good news that the Qarakhanid Dynasty Aslan Khan returned to the Great Song Dynasty, was to be reported to Kaifeng Prefecture.
Because the distance was too far, the messenger of the good news did not arrive at the city of the first good city of the Great Song Dynasty until the winter of the second year of Daguan, when it was almost November, and arrived at the city of the Great Song Dynasty with good news.
And this surprising good news immediately provoked another officialdom battle in Kaifeng Fucheng, which was already surging undercurrent.
In other words, Zhang Yuan's Lubu Feijie became the fuse of the "Grand View Political Dispute".
"Good! What a scholar in charge of Zhang Zhiping! β
"Who said that scholars don't know soldiers? I see that this chapter Zhiping's ability to use soldiers is far above Wu Chongdao and Gao Shiyan! β
"Break two kingdoms in one war, and bring down three kings...... This kind of military feats can be called the first person since the founding of our dynasty! β
"Zhang Zihou can have such a son, it is enough to laugh at Jiuquan......"
"It's a pity that loyalty and filial piety are difficult to achieve both! When Zhang Zihouxian died, Zhang Zhiping couldn't die in front of the bed, it was always unsatisfactory! β
In the political hall, the rulers who had just finished the summons of the Chongzheng Palace began to discuss. They didn't expect that Zhang Yuan's victory would bring much shock to the situation in the Great Song Dynasty, so they were all quite happy.
Because the commander of this battle, Zhang Yuan, is a civil official, and he is also a serious Jinshi. Zhang Yuan's victory fully shows that the civil officials of the Great Song Dynasty can directly take charge of the army!
Zhang Yuan's victory in the northwest can just be used to suppress the military attachΓ© forces of the new army, which have been a little up-and-coming recently.
In addition, everyone also felt very sorry for Zhang Yuan's failure to send Zhang Dian to the end.
Zhang Dian died of illness in Puyuan, Haizhou about a month ago, and most of his children and grandchildren were by his side when he died, as well as a bunch of great-grandchildren, which was actually very lively. But because Zhang Yuan had to supervise the army on the front line, he couldn't send his father to the end. In fact, he didn't know that his father had passed away!
"Ziyou," Zhang Shangying, the right minister, asked Su Zhe, "Now there are still many undecided things in the Western Regions and Hexi, do you think you want Zhang Zhiping to win the love?" β
Winning love is the meaning of not keeping filial piety for three years when the parents die. Under normal circumstances, of course, it is not possible, but Zhang Yuan is now the commander of the Western Regions Army, and he also has the important task of "collecting Hexi", so it is reasonable to win affection.
"Zhang Zhiping naturally has to win love." Su Zhe touched his already snow-white beard, frowning slightly.
He had already thought of the reaction of the official family when he heard the news of the great victory in the Western Regions.
You must be overjoyed, and you will think how good you are...... In fact, it is not the official family, or even Zhang Yuan, but the positivist school!
And the officials who think they are powerful will definitely make up their minds to do something that has no practical significance like the coming of all countries to the court. On the one hand, it wastes public money, and on the other hand, it will arouse the vigilance of the Khitan people and cause unnecessary trouble...... What kind of way do you have to think of to stir up the yellow in this matter?
Su Zhe was pondering, a small yellow door suddenly walked in from the outside and appeared in the political hall, needless to say, it must have come to deliver the decree.
Sure enough, Xiao Huangmen saw that the ministers present all stood up one after another, so he opened his mouth to preach the edict: "The Son of Heaven has a decree, and Su Zhe, Zhang Shangying, and Zheng Juzhong immediately entered the palace to discuss the aftermath of the great victory in the Western Regions." β
