The number one scholar of the Song Dynasty

This is not a good job. After the capital was moved to Longcheng, the southwest became even more remote.

Everyone is unwilling to go, and the folk customs in that place are not yet civilized, and the barbarians are unruly and unruly.

The most terrible thing is that the road is difficult to walk, with high mountains, cliffs and cliffs, which are endless.

Therefore, there is a saying in the officialdom that it is better to go to Karakhan than to go to Yunnan, Guizhou and Sichuan.

The Uyghur, Dangxiang, and Tubo people in the northwest are now more law-abiding than the Han people. They believe in Yang Xue, a mythical monarch, and whoever dares to commit a crime must be careful that his fellow clansman will deal with him privately.

Bai Shizhong selected some college students who had just entered school, personally taught and encouraged them one by one, and began to send people to escort them to the post.

The southwest also gradually settled down.

7 Seventy chapters finale!

In the winter of the fifth year of the Chongming Dynasty, the Great Xia court still did not stop its conquest.

The emperor Yang Lin, who once swore to promise Minister Wu that he would release the horses to Nanshan and put the swords and guns into the warehouse, once again broke his promise.

This time, attacking Goryeo from outside and conquering Bozhou from inside is equivalent to attacking two of the three major Wanli levies of later generations at the same time.

Wanli exhausted the treasury and left a lot of problems, but now Daxia does not have this trouble.

Also in the Ming Dynasty of the later generations, Yongle's big money was higher than Wanli's three major levies, I don't know how many times higher, but the national treasury was still full.

Because he made Zheng He's voyages to the West and made a lot of money from the sea. Now, it is equivalent to how many voyages to the West.

Not only the sea merchants, but also the commercial routes extending in all directions on land, are also continuously congesting the treasury.

The military forces of the Manchu Dynasty and the people of the whole country are also used to it. When there is no battle, it is a novelty.

From the military to the governor's office of the five armies, down to the ordinary pawns, most people want to fight.

Today is a relatively fair era. Pretending to be a leader in the Song Dynasty was an unspoken rule in the Song Dynasty, but now it is different.

The spread of the teaching has washed away the ethos in the army, and many people are upright.

They fought to defend their country, with a sense of honor and pride, rather than being forced to sacrifice their lives before.

Especially the low-level military officers, if anyone dares to destroy the supreme military honor in their hearts, they probably won't let it go.

There are channels in the army, and they can be listened to by the sky.

This ensures that today's military promotion channels can provide people with an additional path to change the fate of the family.

A country where civilians have multiple channels to rise must be full of vigor and ambition.

There is endless money, there is a solid rear, there are soldiers eager to fight, and there is an ambitious emperor.

If Daxia gets the chance to start a war, he will definitely fight.

In a large hall of the imperial palace, two tall copper smokers were burning vigorously.The dripping water turned to ice outside, but the inside of the hall was as warm as spring.

Yang Lin entertained the ministers here, and the envoys of the surrounding vassal states each presented gifts.

It is a dangerous thing to be a vassal state of Great Xia now, and a little carelessness will give him the opportunity to send troops.

Once Daxia sends troops, they will send out several more prefectures, even provinces.

And the countries that have been conquered often don't even have scum left, and many duchies in South Asia have already suffered.

Therefore, these foreign ministers who were sent to the Great Xia sat upright, concentrating on it, not squinting, for fear of being caught wrong.

Yang Lin himself doesn't have this kind of thought. In his opinion, he is a very kind person, even if there is a little disrespect, he will not go into it.

Holding the wine glass, he talked with the courtiers around him with a smile. It was the end of another year, and he had to say something personal to the courtiers close to him.

Sitting in front of him, on the left is Cai Jing, who is not a high-ranking official, but has the highest rank and prestige.

Cai Jing's beard and hair are white, and without the intrigue of Huizong's dynasty, he slowed down.

He seemed to be in good spirits, and in front of him was his third son, Cai Tao, who was also Yang Lin's disciple.

On Yujia's right are Bai Shizhong and Fan Zongyin, the prime ministers of the current dynasty.

The main hall accommodates nearly a thousand people, and it doesn't feel crowded at all. Several small tables are arranged in a zigzag shape, and each has a meal and banquet.

At this time, someone from the Ministry of Rites stepped in, walked up to Yang Lin, clasped his fists and said, "Qizou official, there are Khitan envoys, come to pay tribute."

"A tribute?"

Everyone including Yang Lin was stunned for a moment, but he immediately understood.

Yelu Dashi really deserves to be a hero, his mother can bend and stretch...

The Khitan envoys, wearing traditional Khitan costumes, stepped into the hall.

Their expressions were dignified. When the Daliao Empire was in full swing, they didn't know why His Majesty the Emperor, who had always been brave, paid tribute to Daxia.

Although not a vassal, the status of strength and weakness is established.

The whole country of Daliao was in an uproar, and they couldn't understand His Majesty's actions at all. In their view, Daliao was entering a period stronger than ever, and it happened to be advancing eastward to compete with Daxia.

In the main hall, all the ministers of Xia Chaowu were extremely happy.

The most powerful won the Liao Kingdom, and also took the initiative to pay tribute.

The Xiaoguo present saw that it was a dead end for Daxia as an enemy, and the Liao people were so powerful now that they all gave up.

In the distant city of Fuliao, Yelu Dashi had a sad face. When he was upright in his prime of life, he had to lower his head.

The more you know, the more afraid you are, Daxia is really too strong now.

What worries Yelu Dashi even more is that what Xia Chao strengthens is a civilization, a kind of inheritance. As long as this kind of atmosphere is cultivated, they will continue to be strong.

The Khitan was only suppressed by force for a while, making these uncivilized small countries in the West bow their heads.

Moreover, the main body of the Xia Dynasty, the number of Han people has reached more than 1 million, and it is still growing rapidly.

As for the Khitan people, there are still hundreds of thousands, and the soldiers and horses under his command are mainly Turkic people, and there are also various races.

These people can still serve themselves because of force suppression on weekdays.

Once they start a war with the powerful Xia Dynasty, it is doubtful whether they will be loyal.

Once turning back in the face of battle, the rear of oneself will be in chaos first, and the seemingly powerful empire of Daliao will collapse.
