"When I was working in the canal, I not only took the lead in the work, but also directed the inspection and inquiries, and also talked to some strange people."

"Thank you, Wang Qing, for your hard work."

"Your Majesty, I have said that I have received the grace of Song and the grace of the kings of three generations, and should be rewarded. I would like to talk about this Suizhou. But let's talk about a very distant place first. I met a foreign merchant who said that he had been to the West, and was far away, about the west of Dashi."

"I know, Dafuqin, Daqin."

"It's where, but he should go further."

"The earth is indeed vast and boundless."

"This may not necessarily..." Wang Ju said hesitantly, because in the elementary mathematics book that is about to be released, he would also fill some water. For example, the earth is round. If you want to know how long it is, it is very simple. Make a standard hourglass, then use a gentle carriage to pull it from Kaifeng to Chang'an, use this hourglass to calculate the error of the sunrise time between the two places, and multiply it by the distance, and you can get the length of the earth. Why is it round? You can see it by just one look. And you also draw an annotated picture. At that time, Ge Shaohua was shocked.

Fortunately, the Song Dynasty was relatively relaxed in this regard and would not have a tragedy like Copernicus.

But this cannot be said anymore, that's too off topic. He continued to say: "Your Majesty, how many people should be in a larger city, not households, but people, including everyone."

"About six or seven hundred thousand people," Zhao Zhen hesitated and replied. He calculated it in the city of 100,000, which means that there were more than a dozen people in the Song Dynasty. As for the capital, there were more than one million people alone. There were also military households, official households, merchants and other migrant populations. The Song Dynasty could not count this, otherwise there would be more than two million people.

"But in the city there, there are fewer than 100,000 people. Generally, it is the peak if it reaches 50,000 people."

“Huh?”

"Take the more prosperous big city he mentioned, it is called Paris. This city is dirty and dirty. It is unimaginable. There is no decent sewer, so the feces on the street are thrown away. The ladies wear high heels to prevent them from accidentally stepping on these dirty things. But the city is uneven. Some people can still scream when they throw dirty things, and some people don't even scream, so they throw them out. So the ladies wear hats with bandwidth edges again."

Zhao Xu shivered when he heard this.

This is actually true, so people in later generations should not be depressed. They are only temporarily leading for a hundred or two hundred years. In fact, they were not as good as barbarians around China. Now the transportation is backward. Otherwise, those places may not have attracted the attention of the Song people, or the Song people did not even have the qualifications to call the barbarians.

"So once the city population exceeds 50,000, all kinds of plagues begin to prevail."

"There is such a place in the world?"

"Yes, Your Majesty, everyone's wisdom is high and low, right?"

“This is, like you.”

"I won't forget it. Your Majesty, the same is true for the race. Why is this? First, they are not as wise as the Han people, and second, they are not as diligent as the Han people. I will compare another example. Although the people of Xixia are very hard because of the poor military and the deposed military force, Suizhou is close to the Yellow River, and there are Wuding River, Tuyan River, and Dali River. Why does Suizhou have only this population? No, it is wild and powerful, but still not as diligent as the Han people. It is the pride of His Majesty in our dynasty who live with the Han people."

"I..." Zhao Xu was not proud, but heavy.

"The country may have trouble, but there is no rush. As long as the Han people are slowly corrected, as long as they do not impose heavy taxes, the country will recover quickly. When the people are rich together, the country will be rich. However, we cannot really be a group of hard-working little rabbits. There are few wolves around, and it is not a big problem to eat a few. However, there are too many wolves around. No matter how diligent the rabbits are and how fast they reproduce, they will be eaten up. Sima Guang may think that as long as there is no internal trouble, the country will not perish. Wrong, no matter whether the Xixia or the Liao Kingdom, they have figured out a pattern of coexistence between Hu and Han, and the Jurchens in the Northeast have also learned to plough and semi-grazing. They are no longer the Turks and Huns who were only nomadic in the past!"

"Although our dynasty has trouble in internal governance, the monarchs of the monarchs were humble monarchs for several generations, so they could be saved. However, the shortest thing is military weakness. Although Zhong Yan did not allow Lu Shen, he took surrender privately, which violated the system, but his intention was good, and he took back Suizhou out of thin air for our dynasty. Since Taizong's two northern expeditions, our dynasty has been losing territory. When did he seize one state?"

"Of course, I also oppose the dethronement of military force. After the Battle of Dashun City, can't I lead my troops to take the opportunity to take down Jintang City, Baibao City and other important land? I can't take it, but also take into account the country's economy. However, appropriately recovering the lost land is also an exciting move."

"Confucianism has respect, that is respect, it is the king and minister, father and son, minister obey the king's orders, son obeys the father's orders, but is the king of Emperor Yang of Sui? Will the father rather eat better than starve his son to death? Combining honor and benevolence is the true meaning of Confucianism."

Sima Guang is also considered a honorable person, but a fartable person!

"In the Battle of Dashun City, our army clearly had the upper hand, but the narrow battlefield restricted the Xixia people from retreating. Seeing that it was dawn, the Xixia army in the city was coming continuously. I rushed up with some officers and soldiers and strong men. However, the enemy could not be defeated. In desperation, I saw Li Liangzuo and felt it was an opportunity."

"You thought of the battle of Gaoliang River," Zhao Xu smiled bitterly. The nature of the battle was similar. The Song army surrounded Youzhou City. Yelu Xizhen came with his troops and defeated. Yelu Xiuge came. He had even fewer troops and was an exhausted army. So he slapped his horse and led his men to attack Huanglong and attack Zhao Kuangyi. Zhao Kuangyi was cowardly and took the lead in escaping. Once he ran away, the entire Song army collapsed.

"this……"

"It's okay, this is also a lesson from the past. I borrow it and return it to the enemy. If Emperor Taizong learned about it, he would be relieved." Zhao Xu said.

"Yes, but at that time, most of my subordinates were infantry and could not kill them, so I moved closer to several cavalry and conveyed this order. But the most tragic time was when I encountered the Western Xia Iron Harrier, and the heavy armor was almost impossible to attack. But the officers and soldiers still rushed forward without hesitation. Finally, they defeated the iron guard, but one familiar officer after another fell in a pool of blood for a long time."

"In order to burn the enemy's food and grass, Hu Qian led a battalion of foreign cavalry to enter the enemy camp alone. Who knew that this battle lasted two hours, from the third to the fourth, his war horse was stabbed to death, and he was still brave enough to kill the enemy, and he died several times, but he still stood and looked at the east. Where was his home and where was the land of the Song Dynasty."

"When soldiers fight bloody battles ahead, they give their lives and their families' grief. They are all human beings, your Majesty, your people, and they are more loyal, their minds are not dirty, they are not inferior to ministers, nor to Sima Gong. Your Majesty, don't let them feel heartbroken."

"I understand. I will go back immediately and issue an edict to let Zhong Yan return to Qingjian City." Zhao Xu said with moist eyes.

Although Wang Ju said it a little sensational, this is indeed the fourth advantage.

When Renzong was fighting, he lost one game, but now he won one game. As he wins, his morale rises and his army becomes stronger. There is no need to explain the simple truth.

"Your Majesty, don't worry, I've said profit, and now I'll talk about harm. People in the world say that Renzong raised scholars, but I don't think I raised many Gu mothers! They are not scholars, but Gu mothers, and they are very harmful Gu mothers. Why? I only say a passage in "The Three Kingdoms" and Ma Chao wrote a memorial to the First Lord. There was a passage in the ministers' sect that was more than 200, and was killed by Meng De. Cao Cao killed more than 200 people in Ma Chao's family. What a deep hatred. However, when Ma Chao mentioned Cao Cao's name, he only mentioned the words, not the name, not the name, not the Cao, thief, or the rebellion. What is education? This is education. However, since the gentlemen took office, they spoke of villains, evil, and traitors. Yes, before them, there were ministers, but several times? Now no matter who is a traitor, villain, villain, where is the education of scholars and officials?"

If you are not convinced, look at Ouyang Xiu, Sima Guang and others!

Then put aside the articles and calligraphy they wrote, we cannot look at people by articles and calligraphy. Then wouldn’t Cai Jing be a good person? Isn’t Qin Hui, who created the famous Song font, a good person? Then, analyze these people, compared with the villains they mentioned, who is a villain? He is not a villain, he is also a madman who bites people desperately, and a group of madmen with high IQ and high culture.

"Mental and respectful..." Zhao Xu shook his head with a wry smile.

"Our dynasty will no longer be stupid, and the people of Xixia will be very unhappy, especially the Liang family. I heard that she was the rule of the dynasty, and it was not a docile woman. Looking at the border ministers of our dynasty, there were very few officials like Cai, mostly greedy and cowardly civil officials like Lu Shi. Therefore, she would inevitably send troops to retaliate, one for revenge, and the other for establishing authority. But even without this, she would also send troops to plunder. The time of the late emperor was the best example. However, if that were the case, the current scholars and officials lacked the gentle education of Confucianism and had more hostility, and would inevitably turn black and white. Your Majesty, this is the first thing to pay attention to."

In other words, they are all so weak that they win a battle and make military achievements. They are not meritorious, but guilty!

"Secondly, Suizhou cannot be so calm. There may be greater wars in the future. I hope the court will be prepared. In fact, there may be food in Weimingshan's tent. In fact, there may be a shortage of food in the winter. This problem is not big. I can arrange manpower, and I will get a large amount of livestock there. Zheng Baiqu is seriously lacking in plowing oxen and large livestock. I can use the profits of the sour wine to exchange for money and silk, and then use this money to exchange for food in Shizhou and other places to temporarily support Weimingshan tribe. Since I surrendered to our dynasty, I must first warm my heart."

"Yes, Wang Ju, you are right, I have neglected it," said Zhao Xu. This is the aftermath. If you don't calm down, it means that nearly 10,000 troops will be added out of thin air.

"However, once there is a major war in the future, the food problem will have to be solved by the court, and Zheng Baiqu cannot achieve success immediately. Then the food must be transported from the Central Plains or from Hedong to Suizhou. Your Majesty, think about the loss."

This small cart was pushing, and one stone of grain was transported to Suizhou. It would be nice to have a bucket of grain left. This would require coordination, otherwise the civilians would not even have food to go back.

"This year, there is a slight drought in Shaanxi and a severe drought in Hebei. I also lack food in the north. So even the soju.com ordered to reduce the yield as appropriate."

"Sima Guang also said that, but the benefits of soy wine were handed over to the court. The country's money was tight, so Sima Guang didn't say much."

"Does he have the nerve to say? Just this villain, I really think about the country."

"I know in my heart that he said his."

"Thank you, but if the drought is curbed next year, you must find a way to transport some of the food as appropriate. Or to Shizhou for storage, if it is in Qingjian City for storage, although there is any loss, it is not in a hurry and does not hurt the people. Once the war comes, you can only send a large number of soldiers to Suizhou. At that time, you can hurry to transport food and grass, and the waste will be truly serious. But the difficulty is that as the people of Suizhou return to their hearts, the forts are gradually prepared, and some military farms are added. Xixia can only sigh at Suizhou, and Suizhou is truly earned by our dynasty. The border situation gradually benefited our dynasty."

"This is the aftermath." Zhao Xu said with emotion.

Strictly speaking, it is not just about diplomacy, people's livelihood, subsequent development and calculations, which involve many aspects, which is a true complete aftermath.

But Wang Ju didn't say anything more.

I have said enough today, but it is more important to say it.

Therefore, I only added one sentence: "Your Majesty, these issues are not important in reality. Just send one person to Shaanxi."

"who?"

"Han Qi and Duke Han."

"He..."

"He was finally the hero of the late emperor, so when Your Majesty wanted to stop his position, many ministers remained silent. Using him to Shaanxi is to show His Majesty's magnanimity, which is the basis of our country. The second is to make the best use of it."

Zhao Xu was silent for a long time, and finally nodded. It is true that at this time, Han Qi was the best candidate for him, regardless of qualifications or experience.

In fact, Wang Ju was scared. It seemed that he remembered that Zhong Yan killed only seven or eight hundred people in Xixia in the battle between Huaining Village.

There was no way. At that time, Zhong Yan was all infantry under his command. The number of people in the Western Xia was large, and most of them were mobs. Therefore, they collapsed in one battle. However, they all came on horseback and wanted to kill the enemy but couldn't catch up. How could they kill? So they got a lot of supplies, but the number of people was not killed.

However, due to Wang Ju's promotion, he obtained a large number of war horses in Dashun City. The fatal thing was that under Wang Ju's insistence, although Cai Ting retained some war horses for the soldiers of Huanqing Road, the others were handed over to the surrounding cavalry and foreign cavalry, rather than putting them in the pastoral prison as an expensive toy.

Qingjian City was at the front line and had hundreds of horses. How could Zhong Yan ruin these horses? He immediately formed two entire battalions of cavalry. In addition, Zhe Jishi brought some cavalry, so the number of enemies killed more. However, in general, the number of cavalry was still small, so after chasing for more than ten miles, he did not chase them again.

But even so, Wang Ju will still be afraid. What if Han Qi doesn’t go to Shaanxi because of his own push? It has little to do with Suizhou, but Zheng Baiqu is there!

Think about Han Qi sat in Chang'an, would Sima Guang still dare to chatter?

Zhao Xu stopped talking and had to go back and issue an edict immediately.

He had to summon Han Qi, and had to replace Lu Shi, and Guo Kui left Weizhou. The court asked Cai Ting to replace Guo Kui to Weizhou. The edict had just been issued, but who would replace Cai Ting to Qingzhou has not yet been discussed, so this cannot be delayed.

Wang Ju smiled slightly and continued to study this arithmetic book.

Suddenly a middle-aged man came over and asked, "Are you the security guard Wang Juzi'an?"

"That's right, may I ask you?"

"I am Lu Jifu, Quanzhou."

"It turns out it's Brother Ji Fu, I'm lucky to meet you." Wang Ju bowed. Where can I not offend Lu Huiqing, it's better not to offend me.

"How dare you, Zi'an's talent is spread to everyone in the world."

"I am young and act recklessly and get success by luck. How dare I say that I have any talent?"

"Zi'an, I saw you talk to the official family for a long time just now. Could it be those new laws?"

"No, it's about Suizhou. The new law, how dare I say anything new law."

"Yes, the country is difficult to recover, and it is very difficult to improve it. But it is okay to cure it, but it is impossible to achieve it."

"Radical treatment?" Wang Ju was shocked. Even if Wang Anshi came, he would not dare to say such a big talk.

"Look," Lu Huiqing casually pulled out a map of the Song Dynasty and pointed it at a place: "It is a radical cure, but it is impossible."

"Chang'an, the radical cure, Chang'an... move..." Wang Ju was really shocked this time. It was a radical cure, but that was to break the sky! (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster!
