Section 501 Surprise
Returning to Chang'an from Yongxian, Liu Che ushered in a series of 'surprises'.
The first 'surprise' was that the Korean Dongyi Mission led by Yi Zong had arrived at Xiaoguan and was about to return to Chang'an.
The handsome master invaded the country, and the ruler of the emperor asked the guilt in front of the emperor.
In ancient China, this was a great achievement of military generals in any case.
Even if it is like righteousness, just doing a simple armed game, this work of destroying the country is also real.
Liu Che summoned the ministers to discuss the reward.
The Han dynasty has the most important military merits, and it can even be said that in the Han dynasty, military merits are a qiē.
What's more, Yizong is still Liu Che's brother-in-law, and there is no pen among the ministers, as soon as the Son of Heaven is called, everyone will know the meaning of the song when they hear it.
Therefore, there is almost no doubt that the rewards of Yizong and Yu Linwei will be unanimously voted through.
Yizong was named Dongchenghou, with 1,300 households in the food district, and worshiped as Lang Zhongling.
The former is a matter of course, 1,300 households in the food yip, it is also a drizzle, and among the relatives of the Han family, the number of Yizong food yi households should be relatively small.
In other words, even if he doesn't have this credit, as long as he survives for a few years, he will be able to become a marquis sooner or later.
The key is the appointment of Lang Zhongling.
Lang Zhongling is not only the well-known Guangluxun in later generations, but also roughly equivalent to the head of the Central Guard Regiment of the Celestial Dynasty in later generations, and has always been served by the emperor's henchmen.
After Liu Che ascended the throne, Lang Zhongling has been hanging in vain, and at this moment, it finally ushered in its master.
And after the righteous column, the meritorious Yulin guards are naturally also added to the ranks. The reward is abundant.
The two outstanding lieutenants under Yi Zong took this opportunity. Soaring.
One was appointed as the envoy of the Northern Army
What is an emissary protector?
In the Han Dynasty, with the word "Messenger". can automatically make up for the ministers of the Qin Mission, hold the Son of Heaven's Day, and sit in some key sensitive positions.
And the messenger protector, you can understand it as a role similar to the overseer and political commissar in later generations.
The main task is to be ordered to supervise and supervise a certain army.
However, unlike the descendants, the Han family did not think that the eunuchs were used as military envoys, but that the emperor chose from his attendants.
For example, during the Witch Gu Rebellion in history, Ren An, the protagonist of the famous "Book of Reporting to Ren An", served as the envoy of the Northern Army at that time.
And Ren An's way of development. You can clearly see the shadow of the emperor's close attendants and confidants.
This position, said to be important, is not important, in the case of the captain of the guard, the generals, captains, captains, and cunzi of the various departments, in fact, the envoy protects the officer, and is often vacated.
After all, whether it is a guard lieutenant or a lieutenant, or a general, a captain, or a lieutenant below. In the northern and southern armies of the Han Dynasty, there are backgrounds and backgrounds, and an emperor's close attendant wants to command these guys. It's also a bit naïve.
However, it is also very important to say that it is not important.
Back then, Zhou Bo used Li Ji to coax away Lu Lu, who was in charge of the Northern Army. and then clamor for the Northern Army to oppose Lu, at that time. If the Lu family had such an envoy in the northern army, they would not be caught off guard. At least, it can be warned in advance, right?
Therefore, after Emperor Taizong Xiaowen took power, he learned the lesson of the defeat of the Lü clan and set up envoys to protect the army in the northern and southern armies, and appointed close servants or confidant generals from this position to prevent the northern and southern armies from going alone or being bewitched.
And over the years, the Han family has also been strengthening the authority of the envoys of the protectors.
To this day, the envoys of the Protector have the authority to act cheaply, and to supervise the military camp.
The appointment of a lieutenant from Yulinwei as the envoy of the army meant that Liu Che was no longer secretive, but made clear his attitude of firmly controlling the northern and southern armies.
And this lieutenant is no one else, it is Zhang Cigong, who was a good man in the green forest with Yizong in Hedong back then.
And another school captain, Wang Yong, was also worshiped as the captain of the Sima Gate guard of Weiyang Palace because of his military merits.
Sima Gate is the key to entering and exiting Weiyang Palace, except for the emperor, other eunuchs, ministers and even relatives are the only channels that can legally enter and exit.
worshipping him as the captain of Sima Gate, in fact, it is Liu Che's attitude to strengthen the security work of the palace ban.
The other Yu Linwei generals and colonels were also promoted to middle and upper rank officers in the northern and southern armies.
This strategy of mixing sand naturally can't hide from people, and it doesn't need to be hidden.
Through this series of measures, Liu Che was able to completely control the northern and southern armies from all aspects, and truly achieved the command of his arm.
In addition, Liu Che did not resign from the official positions of the captain of the Yulin Wei and the commander of the horses, and the Yizong was still in charge of the Yulin Wei, and at the same time increased the scale of the Yulin Wei to 3,000 people.
It turned from an emperor's guard into a regular field army.
The expeditionary fleet led by General Xu Han, another unit that attacked the dynasty, also received a large number of rewards.
Xu Hanyi sealed 2,300 households, and the total number of households reached nearly 5,000, becoming an important member of the Han princely class.
And his subordinates also have three marquis.
At the same time, Liu Che officially ordered Xu Han to be the general of Lou Chuan, making it clear that he could command 'the large and small ships and ships of the counties and countries of the world' and the governor of 'the affairs of rivers, lakes and seas, the arrest of bandits, the transfer of grain and grass, and other affairs'.
This is probably the first time in Chinese history that a new branch of the armed forces has appeared independent of the army.
The newly-born Lou Chuan General Yamen contributed hundreds of new public jobs to the Han family at once.
After the establishment of the general Yamen of Lou Chuan, the first thing Xu Han did was to reach out to the imperial court to ask for military expenses.
Xu Han's reasons are high-sounding and almost unassailable.
Xu Han said in his recital that his expedition to Korea this time was attacked across the sea, and the Korean monarchs and ministers almost did not react.
And the coastline of the Han dynasty is much longer than that of Korea, and if one day, an enemy comes from the sea, what should be done?
Therefore, coastal defense is very important.
In addition, rivers and lakes are also crowded with bandits, and only with enough ships can the rivers and lakes ensure the safety of their waterways.
In addition, Xu Han also proposed that Jiangnan should pay taxes on grain and silk materials. It can be transported by sea to the swallow thistle area, via the swallow thistle. Transferring the Great Wall and the North, in terms of efficiency and loss. Sea freight is much safer and faster than river and land transportation!
If others say this, the courtiers will think that the person is whimsical and gibberish.
But Xu Han said so, there is a picture and the truth.
He cited the voyage of the expeditionary fleet from Qidi to the coast of Korea, as well as several occasions when supplies were transported by sea.
More critically, he came up with a complete chart.
There are hundreds of pairs, detailed to the detailed charts of the reefs and sea areas in the coastal areas of Jiangqi and Liaodong.
With these charts, Xu Han proves that sea transport is not a whimsical idea. It's something that works.
However, it only takes less than a month for the sea transportation and grain tax in the south to arrive at the Yanji port in the north, and there is no need to levy a large number of people's transportation, which can reduce the loss.
Backed by so much evidence, coupled with Liu Che's deliberate partiality.
In the end, the general of the building boat, Yamen, received 11,000,000 yuan in military expenses, and also got 30 million yuan in the cost of building the ship.
It's just that Liu Che vetoed Xu Han's suggestion that he wanted to continue to build a large building ship.
All of this cost will be used to build small ships that patrol the rivers.
And the building ships of the original expeditionary fleet. Half of them will enter the dockyard and undergo transformation, after which they will be turned into transport ships to take on the task of transporting Jiangnan supplies to the north.
The main responsibility of the general of the building ship in the future. It will also be responsible for the transfer of grain taxes and the elimination of inland river bandits.
Ocean fleet, Liu Che really wants to build.
But right now, neither the technology nor the timing is ripe.
And the second surprise. It is from the Canghai Jun Nangong Xin, who arrived in Chang'an with Tongyizong, and Liu Zhonghan, the king of Zhenfan, and the king of Ma Han, who was established by the descendants of the Emperor of the Korean Dynasty.
Originally. These are small countries with a population of only two or three hundred thousand, or even tens of thousands. In front of the Han family, they are just ants.
But these guys are squirming like Liu Che pointed out, there are a lot of savages in their country.
I hope Master Wang can help with the cooking!
When Liu Che heard this, he almost couldn't help but want to laugh!
Savages?
Yi Zong and Xu Han went on a trip to North Korea, and of course Liu Che knew that the wild people on the Korean Peninsula were referring to those people.
Well, it's the primitive tribes that hide in the ravines.
Most of these tribes stayed in the era of primitive clan society.
Generally, it is more than thousands, and as few as tens or hundreds.
Of course, there are also tribes like Wofu who have already entered the era of primitive tribal alliances.
Whether it was the previous Joseon regime or the later Wei regime, it was a headache for these primitive tribes.
Send an army to conquer, right?
These guys hide in the primeval forest, and you can't find them, let alone catch them.
Moreover, these tribes have been fighting with the sky for a long time, fighting with people, and there are even cannibals, although they rarely fail to fight them, but once they fail, the whole army will be destroyed......
Otherwise, these guys will harass the villages and towns living on the Korean Peninsula.
For primitive tribes, no matter what method is used, the one who can get food is always the best way.
Korea and Liaodong and Liaoxi are mountainous, and among the lofty mountains and mountains of the Great Khing'an Mountains and the Small Khing'an Mountains, there is a space for these primitive clans to survive and hide.
Not to mention the small countries such as the Horen, Maban, and Mahan on the Korean Peninsula now.
Even the Jurchens who were powerful in history later and even the slaves who built slaves had nothing to do with them.
Before the rise of the Jurchens and Jiannu, they were fed up with the torture of their relatives and distant cousins hiding in the deep mountains and forests.
But this is not too difficult for the Han family.
Liu Che agreed to the demands of these 'loyal ministers' in one bite, and ordered the Han troops in Liaodong and Liaoxi and in Korea to cooperate with the armies of various countries to carry out a dragnet cleanup on the Korean Peninsula.
Whether it is the Shengfan Nuzhi tribe in the Song Dynasty or the Shengfan Jianzhou in the Jiannu period, after the two became strong, they became each other's slaves and thugs.
Liu Che didn't believe it, a group of primitive tribes whose weapons were all stones, wood and bones could help but get fully armed and use iron tools to get the Han army.
In particular, Liu Che also ordered a cavalry force of 2,000 people to be drawn from Yan State to assist.
No matter how good you run on two legs, can you outrun a cavalry equipped with a horseshoe?
And these primitive tribes, for Liu Che, are pies that fell from the sky.
The total population of the Han Dynasty. There are only more than 40 million.
These more than 40 million are including the elderly, children, women, soldiers, officials, slaves, maidservants, eunuchs, and emperors.
And the future of the Han family, whether it is mining or not. Hydraulic construction is inseparable from labor.
Especially mining and iron smelting. These jobs are extremely dangerous, and you will die at every turn.
Why did the Qin Dynasty fall?
There are many reasons, but one of them is that excessive overdraft of national strength, especially excessive requisition and distribution of people's strength, will never be able to run.
If he can catch a hundred and eighty thousand young men from the Korean Peninsula and come back, Liu Che will not need to worry about the miners and iron smelters.
Although sons-in-law and convicts have no human rights, they are also citizens of the Han family, and they can also pay taxes to the state after all, right?
And if the son-in-law and the convict are all dead. Is it rare to force farmers to open mines?
And the current technology, in another 100 years of development, Liu Che estimates that mining is also a job that needs to be filled with human lives.
Since the Han people can't die, they can only trouble the Yidi to die.
Anyway, in China's current traditional values, Yidi is like an animal that walks on two feet.
Even if you die a million, ten million in the mine, it will not make the Han public opinion feel any guilt.
Even better. The mines of this era were very dangerous, and the mortality rate was terrifying.
In other words, the future. Even if you catch a large number of monkeys and come back to mine, you don't have to worry about hundreds of thousands of years later, China will be occupied by doves.
Just bring all the slaves back. All digested in the mine tunnel, the high-platform steelmaking furnace is fine.
It's really cruel. It's also very inhumane.
But this is the only way for Han civilization to rise above the rest of the world.
Just as the Western civilization of later generations was built on the disasters and sufferings of the races of Africa, the Americas, and Asia.
A country wants to be strong. Other countries and peoples must be exploited.
"The primitive tribes of Northeast China and Korea may not be enough for the current Han family...... Liu Che thought to himself.
Primitive tribes, how much can be caught if they are caught again? 100,000 dead?
What should I do when I finish catching it?
Liu Che couldn't help but be worried.
Fortunately, this world is big enough, and after catching the Korean Peninsula, you can go to the Indochina Peninsula or something.
And this third surprise made the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty all run to tell each other, and everyone celebrated with the crown.
On November 11 of the second year of Yuande, Mrs. Yi gave birth to a pair of dragon and phoenix fetuses for the Son of Heaven, the mother and child are safe, and the country has a queen!
For the ministers and nobles, what handsome masters invade the country, what opens up the territory, and what all the countries come to the court, are not as important as the emperor and the queen!
And it's a descendant with a handle!
Although Mrs. Yi is not a queen, she may not give birth to a prince.
But whether the Son of Heaven has a son or not, and whether he has a prince or not, are two different things.
If you have a son or a prince, everyone won't care, after all, the prince will always have it, it's nothing more than a lack of an object that can bet on in advance.
But without a son, it's a big deal!
This is a major event related to the future of the family and the rise and fall of the country!
Historically, Piglet has never given birth to a son.
As a result, the people of the wild people were panicked, and even Xiao Pig's uncle Tian Wei was eyebrow-raising with Liu An, facing the Chinese martial arts hundred officials, and I don't know how many people were fighting Xiao Jiujiu in their hearts.
In the Han family, it is unceremoniously said that an emperor with a son is a complete emperor!
If the emperor has no heir, let alone courtiers, he will have to beat the drum in his heart.
Therefore, the excitement of the little pig in the previous life after Liu Ju's birth can be imagined.
Liu Ju was almost born, and he was made the crown prince, and there was an edict of amnesty to the world and reward his subjects.
Liu Che is now at a loss as excited as Little Pig.
But also happy almost to dance.
He squatted on the ground, looking at the two little cuties in swaddling clothes, with infinite love and cherishment in his heart.
It stands to reason that he also had seven or eight children in his previous life, so he shouldn't be so excited.
But he himself did not know why this was so.
He was like a child, kissing the left and pinching the two little guys' faces.
Even the eunuchs in the palace couldn't help but bow their heads when they saw it, holding back their laughter.
After the excitement, Liu Che calmed down, he knew that this father's love and emotion, from now on, I am afraid that it will have to be buried deeply.
Since ancient times, the danger of the palace is far beyond people's imagination.
In particular, the current queen's mother is a pavilion pottery.
Liu Che knew that if he was too doting on these children, God knew what would he be able to do if Guantao went crazy?
The old Liu family's festival is that Liu Che himself is not sure, let alone others?
In history, the Liu family has had tragedies like human beings, tragedies of father and son, and even the emperor's brain-dead who strangled his only flesh and blood.
It is no exaggeration to say that the Liu family is a mixture of madman and genius.
Lying on the couch, the righteous woman who was still weak felt Liu Che's strange appearance, so she struggled and said: "Your Majesty, please also ask Your Majesty to give the prince and princess a name......
Looking at Yi Wan's eyes, Liu Che also showed a gentle look.
He walked over, shook Yiwu's hand, and said gently, "Prince...... It's called sick ......"
The name "Sickness" is the name or even a big name of many ordinary people's children in the folk.
Yiwu comes from the people, and naturally knows what the name of the disease has become in the people.
But she is a smart person, and she is not disappointed, but smiles: "Sick, sick, no disease, no disaster, very good, very good......"
But how did Yi Wan know that the name of the illness itself pinned on Liu Che's infinite hope for his eldest son.
Historically, the most famous king in the middle and late Han Dynasty, Emperor Liu Xun of Zhongzong Xuan, was named Liu Ai before he became emperor.
"What about the princess?" Yiwan looked at Liu Che with hope.
Liu Che smiled slightly, he wants to protect his son, he can't do too much, and he even wants to cover it up, but his daughter doesn't need it.
Since ancient times, daughters have been to be rich.
Liu Che pondered slightly, and then said: "Just call her Peach, the peach is dying, scorching, I hope she can grow up to be beautiful and happy......
"Xie Majesty xià......" Yi Wan was suddenly overjoyed.
Liu Che held Yiwu's hand, stroked the hair on her forehead, and said gently: "It's hard to love the concubine......"
"The concubine is not bitter, she has the grace of His Majesty, and the concubine is worth it in this life, not to mention that she can give birth to a prince and princess for Her Majesty, which is the blessing of the concubine!" Yi Wan snuggled into Liu Che's arms and said.
Liu Che patted her on the shoulder and said, "Concubine Ai, take a good rest, I will go to the East Palace first......"
There are some things that are better to plan ahead. (To be continued......)
