Chapter 293 A Generation of Heroes!
first sentence…

Zhao Kuangyin's face turned pale.

This means that he is not in the right position, should he be condemned?
Li Shimin, Liu Che and others all cast surprised gazes, and Zhao Kuangyin was a little uncomfortable with those fiery gazes.

The First Emperor frowned slightly!
Usurp...

After all, it is not very good, and the reputation is not dominant in the first place.

[However, during the mutiny, Zhao Kuangyin strictly restrained his subordinates, saying: After entering Kaifeng, you must not surprise the queen mother and the lord, you must not invade the public officials, and you must not invade the government treasury. 】

[When Kaifeng was seized, the defenders were all Zhao Kuangyin's people, so all this was done almost without bloodshed, and it did not cause large-scale deaths, which is especially rare]

Seeing this, Zhao Kuangyin couldn't help but frowned.

He knew he was safe.

Li Shimin and others also looked at Zhao Kuangyin in surprise, and then cast admiration.

It is indeed rare for someone who can make such a peaceful mutiny.

[After becoming emperor, Zhao Kuangyin quickly quelled the rebellion launched by Jiedu Envoy Li Yun and Huainan Jiedu Envoy Li Chongjin, and consolidated the regime. With the help of Zhao Pu, Zhao Kuangyin strengthened the centralization of power, reformed the military system, developed production, and consolidated the rule]

[According to the principle of first going south and then north, first easy and then difficult, successively put down Jingnan, later Shu, Southern Han, Southern Tang and other regimes]

[Since the wars of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms have been rampant, the Central Plains once again ushered in a unified empire, which established a stable and prosperous world for the war-torn people, ended the dark age of martial arts chaos, and contributed to social progress and economic development. , the prosperity of culture has created favorable conditions]

[Zhao Kuangyin is benevolent and generous. In the face of many military generals with outstanding achievements, he did not persecute them. The problem of chaotic chaos]

[And the military generals who handed over their power basically enjoyed the glory and wealth, and the monarch and his ministers get along well with each other]

[Song Taizu attached great importance to cultural and educational undertakings, advocated cultural exchanges, continued the incense for the Chinese culture that was on the verge of extinction since the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, and established a series of major measures such as respecting Confucius and Confucianism, perfecting the imperial examination, creating palace examinations, knowing people and doing them well, and fostering honesty with good salary. The era of unprecedented prosperity of culture and education provides excellent soil for innovative exchanges of various cultures, and it is an era of great cultural development]

see here...

Zhao Kuangyin grinned happily.

Look!

The Xian family recognized him so much, what happened to the sudden sense of accomplishment?

[In view of the dark age of separatism and turmoil in the world since the end of the Tang Dynasty, by adopting the three major programs of "retracting elite soldiers, depriving them of power, and controlling their money and valleys", the military power, administrative power, and departmental power have been cleverly managed in various ways. /The legal power and financial power are firmly controlled, eliminating the possibility of martial arts chaos]

[However, due to weak cadres and strong support, frequent mobilization of soldiers and generals, too much favor with civil servants and other systems, the civil servants are too domineering, have too much power, exploit the people, cause local rebellions to continue, and the army's combat effectiveness is slack]

[Among all kinds of wars, civil servants commanded blindly, resulting in huge sacrifices, leading to the end of foreign wars as losers, and a weak position in foreign countries]

see here...

Zhao Kuangyin's complexion couldn't help but collapse.

Boasting and boasting, why did he suddenly talk about his bad luck again.

【During his reign, he carried out policies such as reducing corvee, tax collection, ruling the country by law, building water conservancy, developing production, clarifying the administration of officials, persuading and rewarding farming and mulberry, and changing customs. In a short period of time, the wounds of war for many years were healed, and the wounds of war were quickly restored. The Song Dynasty pushed forward to an unprecedented prosperous situation, known in history as "the rule of Jianlong"]

[The relaxed environment of the Song Dynasty provided favorable conditions for the prosperity of the commercial economy and literature. 】

[During the Great Song Dynasty, the commercial economy was unprecedentedly prosperous, and the products produced were sold all over the world through the coastal ports, and the living standards of the people were the highest in history]

【Culture is flourishing like never before, all kinds of literary themes are emerging, science and technology are flourishing, productivity has been improved, and the earliest currency in the world - Jiaozi has been produced】

[However, the only regret is that when the sixteen prefectures of Youyun were about to be recovered, they had no choice but to die. They could not be recovered in the Song Dynasty, so they could only live in a corner and could not revive the glory of the Tang Dynasty]

This last sentence made Zhao Kuangyin's eyes widen.

He is so unlucky?

Died just as he was about to take back Youyun Sixteen States?

[Although it lives in a corner, the territory is not considered large among many dynasties, but the martial arts and martial arts are outstanding, and it has created a new stable unified dynasty, ended the turmoil, and made outstanding contributions to the maintenance of the Central Plains. It can be called a generation of heroes 】

[At the same time, the Chai family of the royal family of the later Zhou Dynasty was very generous, and they fulfilled their promise to treat the nobles of the previous dynasty well, and set a good example]

"Xiongjun, I am Xiongjun!"

Seeing this comment, Zhao Kuangyin was very happy, extremely happy.

He even laughed out loud, and even had tears in his eyes.

It's like someone who has worked silently for many years, but is still not enough compared to his predecessors, is suddenly recognized and highly praised by someone who is more powerful than his predecessors.

The sense of accomplishment and joy is completely indescribable.

"For his contributions, it is true that he is a hero, and he is indeed worthy of the name!"

Emperor Shi Huangdi, Emperor Wudi of Han Dynasty, Emperor Taizong of Tang and other emperors also nodded in agreement.

Although Zhao Kuangyin has only half of the country, even the territory can be considered small among all the emperors.

But when it comes to the greatness of an emperor, it never just depends on the size of the territory.

There are also the standard of living of the people, the quality of life of the people, the state of the country's economy, the size of the population, and so on.

[In the Song Dynasty, the population peaked at 600 million people]

[The economic aggregate ranks first in the world, accounting for more than half of the world's economic aggregate. At its peak, the fiscal revenue was 6000 million yuan, far exceeding other countries in the world]

[The population of Kaifeng, the capital city, is as high as 150 million, and there are more than 10 cities with a population of 50]

[All kinds of handmade products are exported overseas, agriculture is prosperous, and various machine technologies have been newly developed]

[And invented movable type printing, improved the compass, and applied gunpowder to war, and coal has begun to be widely used in cities]

[It also opened the Maritime Silk Road, and the shipbuilding industry is very developed. It can produce thousands of large ships every year, and the scale can reach the thousand-ton level]

Looking at these stats...

Not to mention Li Shimin, even Li Longji was short of breath.

"The economy of your Great Song Dynasty is too prosperous, how can you have such a high income!"

Tang Xuanzong Li Longji expressed his real name envy.

His peak income in the Tang Dynasty was only [-] million.

"The population of the capital city is 150 million!!"

"My God, I really underestimated you, Zhao Kuangyin. I didn't expect that your Song Dynasty had such a small territory, so many people, and such a developed economy. You deserve to be called a hero by the Xian family!"
