Chapter 470: Mobilization

"Zi'an, Jiefu didn't take advantage of this great opportunity." Zhang Qi said.

Wang Ju's expenses made Wang Anshi's heart ache, but Wang Anshi couldn't be blamed entirely. In short, the purpose of reforming and changing the law is to remove all kinds of ills of the country and resolve the crisis of the country.

But what was the biggest crisis of the Song Dynasty that Wang Anshi took over? Finance!

Therefore, the first task of Wang Anshi's reform is to eliminate the state deficit and fill the treasury and the inner treasury. If the treasury has no money and food, how to revive the disaster and how to use the army? Secondly, there are some ills of reforming the country.

The best example of this is the law on exemption from military service, which has just been put on the agenda, which corrects the shortcomings of the original law and collects money. That's why we have that spare money.

Therefore, even though the battle of Gyeongju is very important, Wang Anshi still can't get up in the eyes of money.

However, with the deepening of the reform, many contradictions have been created.

In fact, this is a great opportunity to divert contradictions.

Unlike Wang Shao, it was an "invasion of a foreign country," and this war was a "war of self-defense and counterattack." There is all the righteousness.

If Wang Anshi makes good use of it, it will bring the best loose pressure to his change. At least if there is no change, can there be sufficient financial support for this big war?

"Jiefu Gongqing is high."

It's not that Wang Anshi doesn't understand, it's not that Wang Anshi is high, but that Wang Anshi and Wang Ju are not all the way to the road, besides, Wang Anshi is slightly lacking in military affairs, and he doesn't dare to bet that Wang Ju can defeat 300,000 if he can't defeat 300,000. But what can Wang Ju say?

"Prosperity, the people suffer, death, the people suffer." Wang Ju looked at the people who were retreating to the rear and sighed.

It should be said that Wang Ju's evacuation policy this time is very humane.

Heavy pots and pans, tables and chairs, houses in people's homes. There's no way to bring it. But what did the Tanguts want them to do? Do you burn them for the sake of gas? Even so. It's better than breaking the village and killing people.

The precious colored forged gold and silver are fine and soft, and they are taken away, and the "deposit" is only the worthless clothing fabric, which is also made by the people themselves to make marks and register, which may cause some confusion when screening after the war, but this is not strict.

The key is food and grass. After the grain and grass are screened and weighed into the forts, there will also be errors, but after the war, there is an additional compensation of 20 percent, which is enough for the people not to suffer.

Valuable large livestock, such as horses, cows, donkeys, mules, camels, so that Wang Ju is reluctant to kill, the Song Dynasty is most lacking is these large livestock, these big livestock are all let the people carry the goods away, and in the rear Wang Ju prepared forage for these people.

The remaining pigs, sheep and poultry may also have some errors in valuation. However, half of the meat after being slaughtered on the spot was given to the people for free to replenish on the road. Aren't you satisfied?

This is almost a great evacuation with mountains of gold and silver. After the war, the imperial court didn't know how much money it would spend.

However, many problems have arisen in practice.

The rush of time is not a big problem, even if some of the villages that are out of the way have not had time to transport them to the forts, they have also been registered, subsidized after the war, and burned down on the spot.

The problem was mainly in the credibility of the imperial court.

Just like pigs, sheep and poultry slaughtered on the spot, if the court can take out money and distribute it to the people on the spot, the people will enthusiastically follow it. But there is so much money and silk from the Curry of Gyeongju Prefecture, even if there is, Wang Ju's poor officials are different from Zhang Kang, and they have the right to distribute them, and these money and silk must also be used to reward soldiers for killing the enemy.

Then only the credibility of the country, or the credibility of Li Fugui, can be used to make the people believe.

How much credibility Li Fugui can have, even if Wang Ju officially appears, I am afraid that it will not be able to convince all the people.

Therefore, many people did not want to accept this order, so they had to intimidate, saying that hundreds of thousands of enemy troops were coming, and this was for your safety.

There are still many people who don't believe it, and even if they do, they are nervous and leave Gyeongju crying.

The fatal thing is that there are more than 50,000 households in the entire Qinghuan two states, which have nothing to do with the household register, and there are only about 30,000 households on the household register, but the Tibetan people really don't care? The number of households to be evacuated is almost more than 30,000, nearly 200,000 people!

How much panic and chaos will this massive evacuation bring?

"Western Xia is not peaceful, and the war is not stopped."

"Yes, the three armies are about to be assembled, let's go down." Wang Ju said.

This is the 23rd Battalion of the Baojie Army, which rushed to the forts on the front lines first.

Some people passed by here and watched curiously as the more than 10,000 people were gathering.

Wang Ju walked up to them and said loudly, "Everyone, can you see the tragic scene of these evacuated villagers? Does it hurt or not? ”

The number of people is a bit large, and Wang Ju's shouts are not something that every soldier can hear, and the heralds have to be conveyed one by one. After the transmission, more than 10,000 people shouted in unison: "Heartbreak! ”

But they also couldn't understand why the evacuation took place.

Wang Ju said: "In ancient times, during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the Hu people repeatedly invaded our Central Plains. Why invade the Central Plains, because the Central Plains are rich. The reason why the Central Plains is rich is because of the diligence of our people! Turning barren mountains into mulberry fields and swamps into fertile soil is the only way to build a beautiful home. But the Hu people want to be robbers and bandits, robber our wealth, and kill our relatives. Do we agree? ”

"Disagree!" The voice of the answer was more neat.

In his previous life, Wang Ju's most objectionable sentence was that China has a vast land and abundant resources.

The land is big, but it's a fart!

The area of arable land is not even as large as that of India, and the rest is mountainous and snowy deserts. In ancient times, it was even worse, such as the southeast, Yangzhou was the lowest state in ancient times, why, it was all swamps and lakes, and then by the diligence of the people, bit by bit it was transformed into fertile land. There is also Liaodong, before the Han people broke into the Guandong, Liaodong has always been the real Great Northern Wilderness. If there are no Han people to go to Liaodong, then come to Beidacang! The reason why the Central Plains seems to be rich is that the Han people are like hard-working little bees.

"In ancient times, in the face of the Hu people, our ancestors have been unyielding, Qi Heng's soldiers went out of the fortress, and Zhao raised the Great Wall. At that time, it was still the time when the candidates were divided, and the strength of the Central Plains was the weakest. In the Han Dynasty, he shouted out the strongest voice of anyone who offended my Han Dynasty, even if he was far away. Even if they are chaotic, they have no way to take the Han people. It's time for me. Known as the richest dynasty in history. Are we inferior to our ancestors? ”

"It's not."

"Because the table is not good. There is a folk proverb that says that good iron is not a nail, and a good man is not a soldier, are you willing? ”

"Unwilling."

"The original territory of Western Xia was only the four states of Dingyan, but now Shengsheng has snatched Lingyuan and Lanzhou from us, but my dynasty is still at peace with them for the sake of peace for the people. Many people died of hunger and cold, and many people could not feed more children, so they drowned their own children, but our court still squeezed out 255,000 silver silk from the people's fat and ointment, and gave them to buy peace. Do we really owe them? ”

"No, I don't owe."

"We took so many people's fat and people's ointment to buy An, but the Western Xia still invaded repeatedly, robbed our Song people's property, killed our Great Song people, and raped our women, do you accept it?"

"Not convinced."

"Why do they dare to do this. Is it because you think we are weak, are you really weak? ”

"Nope."

"Then let's go together and prove it to our relatives, our 100 million people."

"Whoa."

"Let's go."

More than 10,000 Prussian troops set off again.

Wang Ju stood silently on top of a small mound. Watching the teams of Paujie soldiers go away, on the other side of the soldiers are ordinary people crouching on the side of the road to give way. Because of the distance, they haven't recognized Wang Julai yet, but they just feel that this huge army is very spiritual.

There were fewer and fewer soldiers left.

Wang Ju sighed: "I don't know how many good sons and daughters are going to fall here again." ”

"Zi'an, if you want to make no more sacrifices like this in the future, the only way is to destroy Western Xia." Zhang Qi said.

This sacrifice is inevitable.

Even if it is an attacker, it is divided into three ways: radical attacker, blind attacker and rational attacker. Wang Zhang and the others belong to the last faction.

Therefore, both of them thought that the best way to pacify Western Xia was to attack shallowly.

The reason for the shallow attack was to avoid the army blindly going deeper, with heavy casualties. As long as this casualty occurs once, the Song Dynasty will be restored again. Don't ask weird, the Song Dynasty was the smallest and weakest unified dynasty, and it couldn't afford to lose, but this is the characteristic of the Song Dynasty.

The second is to attack shallowly and steadily, and don't think it is slow, although this steady encroachment process is indeed slow, but where is the border of Shaanxi? Yokoyama. In fact, it is only this part of Yokoyama that is really encroaching. The entire Hengshan is eaten, and the Western Xia does not need to attack, and it will soon be self-extinguished.

The third is to force the blood value of Western Xia. Once this kind of result is reached, the blood value of Xixia will not be able to fight for long. And after fighting for blood value, the entire territory of Western Xia will be a real poor people. Then if the Song Dynasty takes it and applies a little benevolent government, there will not be many tribes who will resist and really rule this area.

After getting the Western Xia, there is no great enemy in the northwest.

There are still countries in the west, but they are separated by the Tianshan Mountains, green mountains and the great desert, and they cannot be dangerous to the Song Dynasty.

And the Song Dynasty got what they wanted the most, war horses!

Then the Song Dynasty will be more powerful, and the army needed will not be as much as it is now, and the entire people of Shaanxi will be liberated.

But this process of fighting blood value is also a way of injuring 1,000 enemies and mutilating 800 yourself. It is impossible to achieve this goal if you are reluctant.

Of course, what Zhang Qi thought was idealized, and after fighting the Western Xia, would the war be over? Even if the Song Dynasty gives up recovering the Yanyun region, the Jin people will go south in the future, even if the Jin people are blocked, there will be Yuanmeng in the future.

However, if the Western Xia is not destroyed, the Song Dynasty will be more dangerous.

Of course, Wang Ju's mood must be very complicated, after all, these Baojie troops have a lot of relationship with Wang Ju, and they have been in the process of building Zhengbai Canal for several years. Therefore, Zhang Qi comforted again: "After Zi'an's encouragement, morale is there." ”

"It's just a small amount of help."

"Zi'an, I believe there will also be reinforcements on the Western Xia side, Zi'an, what do you guess they will use to help?"

"The wealth of the Han family."

"I think so, this is the sorrow of my dynasty, immediately turned all the people into pigs and sheep, and let Xia Liao slaughter them."

This is also the impact of Wang Ju, but Zhang Qi still can't figure it out, why did it become like this? Or who can blame? It seems that none of them can be blamed, or blamed on Sima Guang, Wen Yanbo, Song Taizong, Tang Xuanzong, Confucius, and Sima Qian (referring to Sima Guang's repeated calls for the so-called Huang Lao Wuwei in the historical records, as well as the impact on future generations of the accusations of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and the scandalization of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty)......

Thinking of this, he was also stupid.

Wang Juyan saw that there were fewer and fewer soldiers, and said to Li Zhuang: "You can also go to Rouyuan Village with them." ”

Li Zhuang fell in love with a lady from a well-off family in the capital, and the concubine immediately sent someone to propose marriage. When the family heard that it was Wang Ju's protΓ©gΓ©, they were very happy and originally agreed. But when he heard that Li Zhuang was from Tibet, he immediately became hesitant.

has nothing to do with Wang Ju's official position, although Wang Ju is not a high-ranking official in the capital, he is the most promising official among the officials of the younger generation. Moreover, Li Sangou is also a major general in the border.

This was the rejection of interracial marriage in the Song Dynasty.

Until Wang Ju came to the northwest, this family matter had not been negotiated.

So Wang Ju asked Li Zhuang to go to the front line this time, even if Li Sangou shared a little bit of military exploits, he would operate it himself, and it would not be difficult to mix up a third class from Jiupin.

Then if you go to propose again, the difficulty will decrease.

"Whoa." Li Zhuang replied.

"Brother Qianfu, Gyeongju will be handed over to you first." Wang Ju said.

He can't bubble for the time being, and he will soon return to Ningzhou to stay with the rest of the Baojie army, and only then can he appear in Gyeongju openly according to the situation. But Li Fugui had already completed the handover process with him, promised his request, and made a high-profile trip to Daesun City, and he was about to leave Gyeongju. So I can only count on Zhang Qi.

"Don't worry."

"Of course I'm relieved," Wang Ju laughed.

Can you not feel at ease with Zhang Qi? So who can rest assured? (To be continued......) R1292
