From the manganese ore on Guangnan West Road, the copper-iron mine in Dongchuan, to the carboniferous mine in Huaizhou on Hebei East Road, the industries once promoted by the government have made considerable profits in the past few years.

Especially since the start of the war on Hedong Road, although the court has almost reached the point where it has to live without food, at the end of last year, Zhao Qin, the spokesperson of the royal family, distributed quite astonishing profits to the courtiers.

Because of the war, the armament manufacturing workshops in the workshop city became busy, which also increased the demand for various resources, which naturally produced considerable profits.

This is also the reason why the courtiers did not have much objection when the court assumed the stance of fighting to the end.

Fu Bi always felt that the officials seemed to be guiding the imperial court's ambition and belligerence.

There are not many things that can guide people's direction more than interests, and civil servants are no exception.

Zhao Xi really had this purpose, so he didn't stop Su Song's exploration team from disclosing the news, and he even instructed to further expand the news to the local state capitals, as well as the waste forbidden army groups that had already reached the East Road.

"I always thought that Saibei was desolate, full of gravel, desert, and barren hills. I didn't expect that the area around Yunzhou is also a place with rich water and grass."

After passing the Yanmen Pass, the track has not been laid yet, and only the ceremonial guards of the king can be restored.However, Zhao Xi did not use chariots, but rode chariots... No matter how difficult the road was, it was not a problem for the army. How could such a sharp weapon as a chariot be no match for Yanmen.

"The Northern Wei Dynasty Li Daoyuan's "Shui Jing Zhu" said in the "Yunzhong County Chronicles": dripping green and flowing clouds, the plains of Sichuan are charming. The grass is lush on the slopes, dotted with flocks of sheep.... It is fragrant and lush. It can be cold. 600 years , the vicissitudes of life have lost their old appearance."

Hearing Wang Anshi's sour words, Zhao Xi seemed to recall this passage.

The Sanggan River, the Hun River, and the Yu River in the Datong Basin nourish this basin. How could it be a desert?

Since ancient times, the Datong Basin area has not been dominated by farming, and has been occupied by nomadic peoples for a much longer time than farming peoples.

It is also because of the customs of the nomads that this basin can still maintain a state of abundance of aquatic plants.

Is it right or wrong for Song people who are accustomed to farming to move northward by tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands?Zhao Xi was in a daze.

It can be concluded that as long as the Datong Basin becomes a living area dominated by Han people, all the forests and pastures he sees will become farmland... The Han people's obsession with farmland is almost to the point of exhaustion.

Think about the pleasing terraced fields on the lofty mountains of later generations, and you can deeply understand what is going on with the Han people and farming.

Plains like the Datong Basin...~

"How much is Dingkou in the four prefectures of Yunying?"

"Returning to Your Majesty, there are a total of more than 57 Dingkou in the four prefectures, most of which are concentrated around the city walls of the prefectures. The Han Linya Army is [-], and it belongs to the garrison of Northern Liao and Xijing..."

After the official family passed Yanmen, Han Qi returned.From this moment, his identity has become a member of the Zhongshu sect, and he is no longer the chief negotiator for the Liao Dynasty.

Everything that needs to be discussed has been negotiated, and the kings of both parties are left to sign.

"Have you settled on the exchange of prisoners?"

Negotiations on other terms were relatively smooth, except for the exchange of prisoners, the two sides were deadlocked.

Before leaving Bianliang, Han Qi's report said that no agreement had been reached.

The court was not worried about this.It is impossible for Beiliao to let Da Song deal with the nearly 100 captives. Beiliao claims to have 200 million string-controlling warriors. He may not care about the [-], but they have to consider the mood of the [-] million warriors.

"One palace guard is exchanged for one war horse, three Wu Guduo are one horse, and Lin Ya is one ten men. The veteran has counted the prisoners, and the real Beiliao palace guards are less than [-]. The rest are soldiers, more like soldiers. Civil husband..."

Han Qi's faults can't be changed, even if the reward for winning the battle is over, he still has to beat around the bush and reduce the credit for this battle... After all, this is a battle dominated by pure generals.

It didn't say clearly that the Battle of Hedong was an act of meritorious service, but he doubted the officers and men of Hedong Road both inside and outside.

It's okay for Di Qing to say, let's not talk about the fear of Han Qi, just talk about his current status...he is re-employment, and there are not many entanglements.

But Guo Kui and Chong E were very upset, their faces were flushed, and they couldn't speak... They knew that once they spoke, all the civil servants would spray them unanimously.

In fact, before the negotiations were basically completed and the government went north, Han Qi used various reasons to kill all the surrenders who had governed the four prefectures of Yunying during this period, causing several civil disturbances...

Describing the prisoner as a civilian husband can explain the cause of the civil unrest to a certain extent, rather than his improper governance.

"Beiliao agreed to exchange captives with an additional condition, that is, the country should not restrict the people of the Yunying four prefectures to leave... The old minister thought it was all right..."

Zhao Xi already understood Han Qi's two sentences before and after.

It cannot be said that it was wrong to kill these surrenders, but that Han Qi acted too hastily, and the method he adopted was inappropriate.

He thought that killing a chicken would be enough to wait, but he didn't know that there was a saying that the rabbit died and the fox was sad.

Han Qi doesn't care about running the army or managing the government, it seems that there is no other way but to kill or kill.

It has to be said that Han Qi's measures in the four states of Yunying, whether it is dealing with surrenders, appeasing the hearts of the people, or shirking responsibility, are very bad.

Chapter 562 Adding Firewood

"If you have the Dao in the world, if you have the people, you will have the world. If you have the people with the Dao, if you have their hearts, you will have the people. If you have the heart with the Dao, if you want to be with them, you will not do what you hate. All gentlemen encourage each other!"

Zhao Xi couldn't blame Han Qi on this occasion. After all, this negotiation was also time-consuming and heavy-duty. There was not much time for Han Qi to properly deal with the hearts of the people in the four prefectures of Yunying.

Generally speaking, there are merits, the means are extreme, and the merits and demerits are mixed.

There may be reasons for Han Qi's handling.

What Zhao Xi could think of was that the Great Song Dynasty was the orthodox dynasty in the Central Plains, and it was the king teacher and rightful lord in the hearts of the Han people.

Han Qi didn't think that the Han people in the northern capital had a sense of belonging and identification with the Northern Liao Dynasty, but Zhao Xi knew that they also had no sense of identification with the Song Dynasty.

Han Qi's series of actions had an immediate effect on the rapid stabilization of the Yunying four prefectures. At the same time, it also made it more difficult for the remaining states and cities to recover the Yanyun sixteen prefectures in the future.

It is even said that it is not impossible that the conditions attached by the Northern Liao Dynasty in the end will make the Yunying four prefectures ten rooms and nine empty after the Song Dynasty takes over.

……

To the east of Yunzhou, with a radius of [-] li, are all camps row upon row.In this space completely filled by the army, a nearly three-mile boundary spans between Song and Liao.

This is the place where the Song and Liao parties signed the covenant...Bai Dengshan.

From Baideng Mountain as the origin, to Changqing in the north, and to Pingxingguan in the south, there are camps layer by layer with clear distinctions.

The camps of Song and Liao are easy to distinguish. Beiliao is a camp with tents and war horses, while Da Song is a camp of chariots guarded by tiger squat guns...

"Song people are weak and can only rely on the power of firearms."

"Guo Xiang, His Majesty the Song Dynasty once said that the most important thing that distinguishes humans from other animals is the ability to use tools. Guo Xiang said that my Song people are weak, and this can also explain that my Song people's lives are precious..."

The prime ministers of both parties contacted to finalize the final details.

Facing the rows of artillery chariots of the Song Dynasty, Yelu Yixin couldn't hold back a few words... a bit sour.

Now the strength of the Great Song Dynasty is no longer the situation where Fu Bi was sent as an envoy to the Northern Liao Dynasty, and Fu Bi can also be confident when facing the Northern Liao Dynasty.

Regarding bickering, Beiliao has no advantage over Song Dynasty, and neither does Yelu Yixin.

"Throwing away the firearms, do you Song people still have the power to fight? Haven't you been manipulated by my Daliao cavalry all the time? It's just a moment of quickness!"
