The spring of 1277 arrived, and the western and central garrisons of the Tatar bandit group began a new attack.

The Liuqiu pirates who seized the Shandong region were simply a thorn in the side of the big boss Kublai Khan, which made him restless all night!

Although those pirates never set foot half a step out of the Shandong region, their location is too close to most of their capital------ even if they are not close, they must not be let go!

The Tatar bandit group has always had the habit of investigating the other party's details before committing a crime, and they have planted a lot of detailed work in the Great Song Dynasty and in Shandong.

Kublai Khan, the big leader, once personally heard a detailed report, saying that those pirates never went out of Shandong to rob and capture, but also helped the refugees in Shandong, providing food and clothing, but they needed to work.

Not to mention the pirates, who practiced all day long, built hundreds of forts on the main roads in and out of Shandong, and in some places even tied up barbed wire.

Kublai Khan, the big leader, has always been very strange in his heart, those pirates on the island of Liuqiu do not loot treasure and grain, so what do they do in Shandong.

Until he heard in detail that the pirates grew grain and cotton and sugar beets there, that they dug coal, iron ore, coke, and iron------ and heard that there were great gold mines!

The big boss Kublai Khan was angry and laughed when he heard this, there are still such robbers in the world, who come to the door of people's homes to grow grain and mine, it's too shameless!

When Pingzhang Ahmad found out, his eyes rolled and he had an idea, and he persuaded the big boss Ahma to drive the poor people from all over the country to the Shandong region, not let them bring a little food, and let them eat the pirates and drag them to death!

It's hard to say that it can cause a riot in them!

Kublai Khan, the big leader, agreed in his heart that this method was ------ what is the use of the poor? They're just eating for nothing!

The Hanchens led by Xu Heng expressed different opinions, believing that this was a strategy to drive away fish for the abyss and finches for the congregation, and it was not feasible.

Of course, he also explained the profound meaning of this idiom.

Xu Heng accompanied the crown prince Zhenjin to quell the riots in the southern part of the Central Plains with lightning speed, and the ears he brought back are proof of this.

This is the first credit of the crown prince Zhenjin------ as a father does not like this.

There was a reason why Pingzhang Ahmad proposed this method, and the big leader Kublai Khan understood it in his heart.

Now, the most elite troops of the Tatar bandit group are stationed around the capital, and it is not a problem to feed them.

The point was that there seemed to be more troops stationed in the northeast, west, and southwest of the Shandong region, and the mere feeding of them this winter had strained the finances of the Tatar bandit group.

If it weren't for the high yield of corn, potatoes, sweet potatoes and other grains from the south, they might all have eaten people!

If he can't pacify the bandits in Shandong, his army won't be able to go south, and if he can't go south, he won't be able to bring wealth to all the nobles within the group!

He could not give an account to the Ilkhanate, which strongly supported him.

Without the wealth brought by robbery, what is the meaning of survival in life?!

Therefore, it is not okay to not pacify the Shandong region!!

Anything that can cause trouble for them, do it!!

This winter, the big boss Kublai Khan issued an order to drive out the destitute----- which he thought was a good idea.

At the beginning, Captain Bao Wei was indeed a little busy, he had to take care of the military while taking care of people's livelihood------ of course, his brothers also took the initiative to help him.

Captain Mei Lezhi of the logistics team is responsible for receiving the poor people who have been running to the Shandong area.

After understanding, he couldn't help but be angry!

The Tatar robbers are driving the poor everywhere!! Some places give a few days' rations, others don't give them at all, all let them beg on the road!!

There were countless dead bodies on the way to Shandong------

Captain Merozie understood better why his Zhang family hanged themselves when they saw the Tatars------ they really didn't take other people's lives seriously!!

Captain Merozie immediately consulted with Captain Bao Wei and asked him to send a few small groups of cavalry out to meet the poor people, bring food, and save some more.

Fortunately, after several seasons of bumper harvests in Shandong, there is no problem with food self-sufficiency, and in the face of the sudden increase in the number of poor people, they used military rations------ and the island master Zhang will never let them starve, so he will save these people first.

Sure enough, it wasn't long before the island of Liuqiu brought them more food in a smoky sea-going boat, and then took some of the poor people away------ thus easing their burden.

The members of the Liuqiu Guard, as well as the "volunteers" sent by the Great Song Dynasty in private, all had a deep hatred for the Tatar bandits!

This does not need to be brainwashed, it is reality.

Seizing this opportunity, the Times of Exile hyped up the cruelty of the Tatar robbers in the newspapers and showed the benevolence of the island.

What no one expected was that "Liuqiu Times" finally affected a character, and this person was Wen Tianxiang, the governor of Ganzhou.

Wen Tianxiang, whose first name was Yunsun, was good at his words, and Song Rui, who called himself Wenshan and Fuxiu Daoist.

After the tribute was selected, he changed the name to Tianxiang and changed the word to be good.

Now, he is only one in forty, and he is a dignified person, with a burly figure, white skin and beautiful jade, clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, and a bright view of things.

When I was a child, I saw the portraits of Mr. Ouyang Xiu, Yang Bangyi, and Hu Quan who were worshiped in the school palace, and they all called them "loyalty", which was happy and envious.

He said at the time, "If you don't be a part of it, you're not really a man." ”

At the age of twenty, he was admitted to the Jinshi and answered the correct advice in the Jiying Palace.

At that time, Song Lizong had been in power for a long time, and the governance of political affairs was gradually lazy, Wen Tianxiang discussed and counteracted with the topic of the law and heaven, and his article had more than 10,000 words, without writing a draft, and was written in one go.

Emperor Lizong of the Song Dynasty saw that he was talented, so he personally selected him as the first place.

In the ninth year of Xianchun, about 1273 AD, he was used by the Great Song Dynasty government to sentence Jinghu South Road.

By chance, he met the original prime minister Jiang Wanli.

Jiang Wanli was surprised by Wen Tianxiang's ambition and integrity, and talked about state affairs with him, and said with a sad expression: "I am old, observing the changes in personnel and personnel in the sky, I have seen a lot of people, and the responsibility for governing the country is not you?" I hope you will work hard. ”

At present, he has no other special studies or monographs except for the article "The Imperial Trial Strategy-Dao", which is full of argumentative ideas------ because the current environment does not allow him to sit down and conduct special research.

Normally, he only writes poems that are appropriate to the situation------ but with the release of the Liuqiu Times, he has increasingly begun to pay attention to the phenomenon of Liuqiu Island, and at the same time, he has also begun to care about the current situation.

"Liuqiu Times" broadened his horizons, especially a few years ago, when the map of the world published in the newspaper ------ he realized that the world was so big.

The businessman may have seen an opportunity on that map, but he saw much more from that map.

Of course, he couldn't have known that it was just half of the simplified map of the world released by Zhang Dao Master.

Subsequently, he bought a number of books published on the island.

When others coveted the novelty and usefulness of the goods of Liuqiu Island, he silently read books such as "Elementary School Mathematics", "Primary School Physics", and "Elementary School Chemistry" under the kerosene gas lamp------ of course, he often had a headache and did not understand it, but he bound all the "Liuqiu Times" one by one, and did not even let go of the widely advertised edition.

He was fine and talked about the situation there with some businessmen who had been to Liuqiu Island------ and the more he tasted it, the more he felt that the governance method of Liuqiu Island was not simple.

He himself is from a rich family, and he drinks a little wine when he has nothing to do, and invites dancers from all walks of life to dance.

He really didn't care about how there was money there, but how it could develop into a good state city in just eleven or twelve years!

I really want to go and see, but I am busy with official business------ Da Song has taken Jiaozhi Road and Dali Road, of course he is happy for Da Song, but he always feels wrong, as said in the "Liuqiu Times", the real threat is in the north!

After thinking about it in a variety of ways, he finally wrote a second piece with a political character: "On the Northern Expedition".

Poetry and the like, I haven't written much for a long time------8)
