Chapter 299 Your Great Song's Military Strength Is Hard to Say in a Word
"Oh, so it's only one third."

"Tsk tsk tsk, such a big empire only occupies one-third, which is quite a lot!"

Zhao Kuangyin praised with a smile, and Kublai Khan's face twitched immediately.

Zhao Kuangyin's sense of superiority really made him speechless.

"Hahaha, Zhao Kuangyin, you are a bit of a bully."

"Who can compare economics with you Da Song? Isn't this purely self-inflicted humiliation?"

When Li Shimin spoke, he wanted to speak for Kublai Khan.

But Kublai Khan was just about to thank Li Shimin, when he heard him say: "However, seeing you bullying people is really comfortable, don't stop, please continue, hahaha!"

Kublai Khan blinked his eyes in a daze, why is this different from what he thought?
What about love?Why are you suddenly so hurtful!

"So, there is only one Gong/Xun Emperor in the Qing Dynasty?"

Kangxi spoke at this time, a little bit aggrieved: "Didn't you say that Kang and Qian were prosperous? Isn't Hongli's life worth being talked about?"

As soon as he said this, Qianlong, who claimed to be a perfect old man, was not sleepy. He opened his eyes wide and waited to be praised.

[Emperor Qianlong’s evaluation has already been said, so I won’t repeat it. He is indeed a meritorious emperor with outstanding achievements, but it indirectly led to the decline of the Qing Dynasty, falling behind the world, and being hated by future generations]

Qianlong: ...

Qianlong was about to collapse.

Can you not talk about him? It is just a sentence that caused the Qing Dynasty to fall behind the world.

Anyway, he is also an old man who has made outstanding contributions both externally and internally.

This makes him very embarrassed.

"Hahaha, Qianlong, it seems that you really can't get over this topic of prosperity and decline!"

How could Li Erfeng miss such an opportunity to watch a good show.

This made Qianlong's complexion even worse all of a sudden.

Is he that trashy?

Obviously, he is also a generation of Mingjun, well, a successful monarch, why do you say that he is a foolish monarch.

[Later historians put forward a hypothesis after a series of investigations]

[If the economic prosperity of the Song Dynasty was inherited and carried forward by the next dynasty, if it was not interrupted halfway, it might be able to lead the world for hundreds of years and take the lead in entering the road of scientific development]

[Subsequent dynasties will not fall behind the world because of being backward and closed, and will be bullied and cede land for compensation, so that the history of the second half of the Qing Dynasty is a history of humiliation and beatings]

The light curtain suddenly intervened, and the conjecture raised made many emperors' eyes widen.

"What, the economy of my Song Dynasty is the most advanced? If we continue to develop, we can become the most advanced country!"

Zhao Kuangyin was stunned when he saw these contents.

Did later generations rate his Da Song so highly?
This made him, who felt very unassuming at first, suddenly start to feel a little proud.

Dare to love him, except for the smaller territory, the rest of the Song Dynasty is very good?
"Our Daming? Isn't it more advanced than Da Song at all?"

Looking at this passage, Zhu Yuanzhang felt as if he had been struck by lightning.

The meaning behind this light curtain is quite obvious.

The three dynasties after the Song Dynasty were all backward relative to the Song Dynasty.

This is somewhat unacceptable to this commoner emperor who despises nobles and is confident that he has granted imperial power to heaven.

certainly…

He calmed down quickly.
"The Great Song Dynasty was indeed an amazing dynasty."

"But to say that the economic system of the Song Dynasty continues to develop and can become the most advanced existence, we think it is unlikely!"

Zhu Yuanzhang's rebuttal made many emperors look over.

Li Erfeng asked directly, "Oh, why?"

The First Emperor, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty, Zhao Kuangyin and others all looked over together.

I want to know why Zhu Yuanzhang said this!

"It must be admitted that the economic prosperity of the Song Dynasty was an insurmountable peak."

"The handicraft industry, manufacturing industry, and commerce have all developed extremely rapidly, bringing huge economic benefits to the country!"

"but…"

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the emperors, especially Zhao Kuangyin, "However, one key fact has been overlooked."

All the emperors who saw him focused their attention, and Zhu Yuanzhang said slowly: "That is the development and prosperity of the economy, which can only be achieved by relying on strong military power!"

"If the military capabilities are not strong enough to defeat the surrounding enemies, a stable and peaceful environment cannot be guaranteed."

"Business is impossible to develop!"

at this point…

All the emperors agree!

Li Erfeng even said: "The Song Dynasty's economy is so strong, the military capability should not be weak."

"I don't believe that those emperors are fools. They don't know the reason why they need to reorganize their armaments when they have money!"

"If the military ability is not strong, it should be difficult for them to live in peace with the surrounding countries in Song Dynasty, and then develop trade in a safe and stable way!"

Hearing Li Shimin's words, Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly laughed, "Emperor Taizong, don't you think too highly of the emperor and civil servants of the Song Dynasty?"

"If the Song army had strong combat capabilities, would the capital be captured by Jin soldiers at the peak of the economy?"

There was a hint of sarcasm on his face: "In fact, the combat effectiveness of the Song army is appallingly low."

"The commanders are as stupid as pigs. They command all kinds of blindness and are self-righteous. They are so happy."

"So much so that some wars that must be won were lost, and soldiers died innocently."

He sneered: "Besides, there are few active attacks in foreign wars."

"Most of the time, others attack. They defend passively and block the enemy's attack. They call it victory!"

"Then, even if you win."

"Their cowardly emperor was afraid that others would continue to fight, so he did not hesitate to cede land and pay compensation, and bought surrounding countries with gold and silver, so that they would not fight again."

"You say, with this kind of military strength, even if the economy is prosperous, can it continue to develop?"

"Being wiped out by neighboring countries is the most realistic development."

The sarcasm on Zhu Yuanzhang's face became stronger, "Speaking of which, your military equipment in Song Dynasty is the best, and the quality of soldiers is also the strongest."

"But it's because the generals who lead these soldiers are not nerds who talk about war on paper and have a lofty heart."

"It's the second-generation general who doesn't know anything about soldiers, or the eunuch sent by the fatuous emperor to oversee the army."

"A group of tigers and wolves led by a sheep who doesn't understand anything, tsk tsk tsk, I think it's God's blessing to be able to block the surrounding tigers and lions!"

Having said that, he deliberately paused.
