Chapter 512: Declaring War on Japan
Chao Yong led his troops to patrol the grassland road, and on 1 August, he went south from the Hulunbuir grassland and took Hedong and Hebei south to Bianjing.
A few days after Chao Yong set off from Hulunbuir, a major event happened in Jinguo, Wanyan Agu died of illness, and Wanyan Wu begged to succeed him. Wanyan Gao was promoted to the rank of Tan Ban Bo Jilie (crown prince), Wan Yan Agu's eldest son Wan Yan Zonggan was named Kulu Bo Jilie (Minister of State), and Wan Yan Zonghan and Wan Yan Zongwang were the prime ministers.
Jin Guo also sent an envoy to Daliang to express his condolences.
When he arrived at Yanshan Mansion on Hebei Road, Chao Yong received a gold medal urgent report.
After reading the official document, Chao Yong couldn't help but smile and said, "Sure enough, it's not a peaceful nation." ”
Shi Yongqi said on the side: "Which nation dares to invade my beam?" ”
Chao Yong said with a smile: "It is Japan, which claims to be the country of the rising sun, that dares to let international students spy on my Daliang Gunpowder Bureau." ”
He originally wanted to wipe out Japan and solve the problem of the shortage of gold and silver in Daliang, but he didn't expect Japan to find an excuse for him so quickly, and it also saved him from creating some incidents.
Shi Yong exclaimed: "The Gunpowder Bureau is the forbidden place of my Daliang, and the Japanese spy on the Gunpowder Bureau, aren't you afraid that my Daliang will send troops to destroy them." ”
"It's a crazy people, there's nothing they don't dare to do. Or maybe they think the sea can stop us. ”
Chao Yong has never had a good impression of this nation, and he is not prepared to leave them a way out. Immediately repair a book, and let people deliver it to Jingshi in a hurry with a gold medal.
Within a few days, the imperial court announced that Japan would send a fine agent to spy on the Daliang Gunpowder Bureau to arrest all the Japanese in the territory, and the next year Daliang would send troops to wipe out Japan.
After the news was announced, countries that wanted to spy on the gunpowder formula of Daliang canceled their actions one after another, fearing that they would cause the disaster of destroying the country.
On September 10, Chao Yong returned to Bianjing and went to the class for five months.
On the day of entering the city, the city was still full of civil and military troops out of the city to greet them, but they didn't think that the prince had expanded his territory this time and laid down much land for Daliang. In their opinion, north of the desert is the frontier wilderness. But the capture of the Liao Emperor Yelu Yanxi, this is a feat worthy of national celebration, more than 200 years of Liao has been pressed on the head of the Song Dynasty, although the name of the country of brothers, but the Song Dynasty has to pay tribute to the Liao State to pay tribute to the New Year's coin, that is the Central Plains two hundred years of shame, and now it is finally a shame.
This time, the ceremony of sacrificing prisoners was even more grand, and after three days of carnival in the city, Bianjing returned to its previous rhythm.
After Chao Yong led his troops to the expedition, the Central Plains was not calm.
After the vigorous extermination of the Church. There are different droughts in the north of the Yangtze River, especially in Shandong, Hebei, Anhui, and Jiangsu, where many places are almost out of harvest, and many gods have taken the opportunity to spread rumors that natural disasters are gods and Buddhas.
Fortunately, the intelligence department and secret agents have spread all over the place, and once they find that they are bewitching the public, they will all be arrested and beheaded in public.
Thousands of heads shocked the ill-intentioned people, and also made the people in Jiangnan who wanted to hoard Juqi dispel their minds one after another.
There is a drought in the north of the Yangtze River, but the wind and rain in the south of the Yangtze River are smooth, and no businessman dares to stir up the wind and rain. There have been no major fluctuations in food prices in Daliang.
The imperial court did not buy grain on a large scale, and in the second year of the Apocalypse, there was a bumper harvest of autumn grain, and in order to stabilize grain prices, the imperial court purchased a large amount of grain. Although the liquor bureau consumed a lot of grain, there was still a large amount of grain in the imperial court's Changping warehouse. As soon as the price of grain in Tokyo fluctuated somewhat, the imperial court opened a standing position to suppress food prices. If there are big businessmen who make a joint market. Buying the grain stocks released by the imperial court may also raise the price of grain. But the butcher's knife of the girder was held all the time, and no one dared to risk his life. Therefore, the imperial court did not make much effort to maintain the stability of grain prices, and the residential homes and peace houses in various places allocated a large amount of grain to ensure that the people everywhere could receive relief without leaving their hometowns.
The imperial court also sent a large number of imperial historians to inspect various places to prevent officials from only caring about their political achievements and ignoring the people, turning natural disasters into natural disasters.
After the end of the prisoner sacrifice ceremony, Chao Yong recuperated in the imperial palace, and the affairs of the military department were handled by Lin Chong and Lu Junyi.
After recuperating in the Taiwo for half a month, Chao Yong went to Taixue and began to teach physics.
Compared with mathematics, Taixue's teachers and students were more interested in physics, and almost all of them signed up for the prince's physics class, and in the end, Taixue could only select 200 students according to their credits as the first batch of students to study physics.
Using interesting experiments to reveal the inner laws of things, the teachers and students of Taixue quickly fell in love with this novel subject after they came into contact with physics.
After entering October, Chao Yong's life became busy.
In the morning, he lectured in Taixue, went to the director of the military department in the afternoon, and worked hard in the palace in the evening.
"Daddy, ice, ice."
Chao Yong was still sleeping soundly with Hu Sanniang in his arms, and Chao Feng ran in, pointing outside and dancing.
Hu Sanniang couldn't help but blush when she saw her daughter break in, pushed Chao Yong away, and said, "Be quiet, don't wake up my brother." ”
Chao Feng and Chao Hongwen both lived in the pavilion behind the Ruizhu Palace, and the two of them went to bed early at night, often getting up at dawn.
Chao Feng smiled: "My brother is also awake." ”
"Dad, mother."
As he spoke, Chao Hongwen had already stumbled in, his little face was red from the cold, and he was followed by the palace maid who was bending down to protect him.
Chao Hongwen is the prince born to Hu Sanniang, but this name was obtained by Chao Yong.
After Chao Gai gave Chao Yong's eldest son and eldest daughter the names Chao Long and Chao Feng, he also felt that he couldn't think of any good names, so he returned the right to name Chao Yong.
Hu Sanniang saw Chao Hongwen's frozen red appearance, and couldn't help but stretch out her hand in distress, and said, "Hongwen, come and warm up." ”
As soon as Hu Sanniang moved, her plump breasts were exposed to the air.
Chao Hongwen, who had not yet been weaned, immediately ran over.
Chao Yong also stretched out his hand to Chao Feng underground and said, "Come, dad hug you." ”
Chao Feng saw his younger brother go to bed, and he also ran to bed and got into the bed.
The cold bodies of the two of them got into the quilt, which made Hu Sanniang shiver.
Chao Yong hugged Chao Feng and said with a smile: "The ground is frozen? ”
Chao Feng's little head shook like a rattle, and said, "No, it's the trees that are frozen." ”
This year's weather is colder than in previous years, Chao Yong strangely said to the palace maid who has not yet retreated: "Isn't it snow?" ”
The palace maid said respectfully: "No, it's a string of ice skates, it rained last night, and then it froze." ”
Hu Sanniang hugged Chao Hongwen and said, "Yumu Bing, it seems that this year's winter is going to be even colder." ”
Chao Yong nodded and said: "Cotton has been promoted in the past two years, and I hope that people will not freeze to death this year." ”
In the first year of the Apocalypse, when Chao Yong led his troops to resist the Western Xia, he discovered cotton in the northwest, and then promoted cotton cultivation in the Central Plains. In addition, the imperial court promoted various technologies at the same time, cotton clothes and cotton cloth have become popular in Daliang, cotton cloth is thick, the price is cheaper than silk, and it is very popular with ordinary people.
