Chapter 161 Mongolia

"Brother, the Mongols and Xixia are also fighting. Both Xixia and the Kingdom of Jin are thinking about how to fight against the Yuan Dynasty. Now they can finally relax!" In the Chuigong Palace, the newly promoted Rong Wang Zhao Yurui said to Zhao Yun.

Before Zhao Yun was adopted, his name was Zhao Yuju. This Zhao Yurui was the younger brother of his mother and compatriots, and his weight in the clan was not ordinary.

Following the old practice of Emperor Xiaozong, who was also adopted, Zhao Yun posthumously named his biological father as King Rong, and because he had a younger brother, Zhao Yurui inherited the title of King Rong.

However, Zhao Yurui's presence in the history books is not high, and there are not many descriptions of Lizong's dynasty. Later, Lizong's own son died, and the only son of King Rong was chosen to be the successor of Song Duzong. Guang, King Rong really didn't make many appearances in the history books.

Since Zhao Yun crossed over, because he was a compatriot with Zhao Yurui, he had been nurturing his younger brother carefully, hoping to give him some help. Zhao Yurui lived up to his expectations and secretly helped him with many things.

"Xixia originally attached Mongolia to resist gold, but now that he knows that he is seeking skin from a tiger, he changed it to attach gold to resist Mongolia. I don't think there will be any benefits in the end." Zhao Yun commented.

Zhao Yurui said: "Brother, Kingdom of Jin 'gifted' some good horses a few days ago, and those people in the business firm also got some horse breeds from Kingdom of Jin and Xixia. More and more horses are a good thing, but raising horses It's hard to find a place!"

Indeed, apart from horse breeds in the Southern Song Dynasty, it was not easy to find areas for raising horses, which was a serious problem for horse breeding in the Southern Song Dynasty.

The source of horses, in addition to self-cultivation, can also rely on war plunder, but war plunders horses and land at the same time, but the current situation in the Southern Song Dynasty, Zhao Yun feels a headache when he thinks about it.

"Second brother, don't worry about this matter for now. I told you a few days ago, but you ordered someone to do it?" After Zhao Yun activated his breeding talent, he didn't worry about the breeding of horses. He was still fancy enough. Ample, pasture for horses.

After the Mongols in history went south to destroy the Song Dynasty, they even had a whimsical idea of ​​turning the prosperous Central Plains into a pasture, but later dismissed this idea. The number of civilians in the Central Plains who died at the hands of the Mongols was as high as 90% of the total population at that time!

After the Mongols ruled the Central Plains, it was stipulated that the right of the first night was implemented. The first night of the bride of the Han people must be handed over to the Mongolian Baochang. The Han people are not allowed to have a name, and they are all replaced by the number of the date of birth. "The names of the father, grandfather and relatives are all numbers - in order to ensure the purity of the blood, the Han people had the custom of throwing the first child at that time, strangling any children who might be of Mongolian blood in their infancy.

It can be said that the Mongols are synonymous with blood and cruelty. No matter who they are, as long as they are bloody, they will not think about reconciling with the Mongols after traveling to this point in time.

Although he is a traverser from another world, Zhao Yun is more prepared for Mongolia than the traversers of this era and later generations.

A nation with blood on its hands in this era has perished countless nations and civilizations. What is the need for its existence?

If it weren't for the fact that the Han nationality in history had developed a huge population during the years of prosperity, I am afraid that the Han nationality would really be exterminated!

But now, Zhao Yun wants his subordinates to have friendly exchanges with the Mongols.

They traded with the Mongols, and some of Zhao Yun's carefully trained men became the "military advisers" valued by the Mongols. Now, Zhao Yun is going to play a role in the process of Mongolia's subjugation of Xixia.

According to historical records, Temujin, known as the No. 1 slaughterer in the world, died during the conquest of Xixia. Therefore, after his death, the Mongols destroyed the entire Xixia country. They were all destroyed by Mongolia, and the historical materials about it can only be found in the records of other countries. Therefore, the number of people killed by Mongolia in the Xixia battle is only inferred, and it is estimated to be between millions and tens of millions. , It can be called unprecedented, but it is by no means unprecedented, because the situation of the Han people in the Southern Song Dynasty who followed in the footsteps of Xixia was even more miserable.

There are many secret medicines in the court of the Song Dynasty, and there are some drugs in his memory that can make people die slowly without anyone noticing. It is really suitable for the Mongols.

Moreover, most of the Mongols fought with the army. Although they were strong and strong, it was relatively possible for them to die of illness suddenly.

In the autumn of the first year of Baoqing, Genghis Khan Temujin of Mongolia returned home after seven years of Western Expeditions. Just look at what they did to those countries in the Western Regions. There are not a few acts of subjugation and genocide. This man’s nature is so tyrannical. All the Mongols had blood on their hands.

Although the original Xixia relied on them to attack the Kingdom of Jin due to the power of Mongolia, but after the new king of the Kingdom of Jin ascended the throne and intended to make friends with Xixia and the Southern Song Dynasty, several parties tacitly stopped the conquest, and the Kingdom of Jin and Xixia started together. Resist Mongols.

If you don't look at the heavy old coins of the Jin Kingdom and the previous feud between the Jin and Song Dynasties, it and Xixia are the most real guarantee for the Song Dynasty to face Mongolia.

The current king of the Jin Kingdom and the future Jin Aizong Wanyan Shouxu saw this, and chose to make friends with the Song Dynasty. Unfortunately, the Jin people gradually became difficult to resist under the Mongolian attack, and even chose to attack the Song Dynasty. , This is also the reason why the people of Song Dynasty who wanted to ask for help but were refused miserably before the fall of the Jin Kingdom. The people under him could not control themselves. The people of Jin still want to suck the blood and eat the flesh of Song Dynasty as before, and the people of Song Dynasty naturally feel more and more disgusted with them.

In the second year of Baoqing, the fifth day of the first lunar month, Tianji Festival.

Although it was the emperor's birthday, the three-year mourning period of the first emperor Ningzong had not passed. This year's Tianji Festival was the same as the Tianji Festival in the first year of Baoqing. It was celebrated on a small scale.

The only advantage of this year's Tianji Festival is that officials can have a holiday. After all, the emperor's birthday is one of the official holidays.

In the Song Dynasty in the second year of Baoqing, because of the death of Prime Minister Shi Miyuan and Mongolia's threat to Xixia and Jin, it was extremely quiet and peaceful, and even the peace was achieved through singing and dancing.

Rong Wang Zhao and Rui were called into the palace to accompany them, but the official family's biological mother, Quan Shi, did not have the title of honor, but was called Rong Wang Taifei outside according to the name of the second son. Today's official family is a man of courtesy.

Although he was very kind to his biological mother, he often sent people to visit his biological mother in his hometown of Shaoxing Mansion after he succeeded him as King Siyi, but he did not do anything special to bring his biological mother to live with him. It is the Empress Dowager Yang of the Ciming Palace. It can be said that in the eyes of the ministers, compared with Yingzong who had a discussion with King Pu after he entered the Renzong period, the current official family obviously has the legacy of Xiaozong. Delai's mother is very respectful, benevolent, filial and generous.

Although it was only a small-scale celebration of the Tianji Festival, fireworks were also set off outside the imperial city. Compared with the simple fireworks blown into flowers that are common in later generations, the fireworks in the Song Dynasty are so exquisite that they can even create dragon and phoenix patterns. Come out, there are also auspicious Qingyun-shaped fireworks and other special fireworks.

Zhao Yun led a group of people to personally climb the walls of the palace city. If you don't look at the internal and external troubles in the background of this era, you can really say that the country is picturesque and prosperous.

After all, Shi Miyuan was dead, and Zhao Yun slowly began to deal with his henchmen. The Song Dynasty never attacked the scholar-bureaucrats. To put it nicely, the emperor of the Song Dynasty and the scholar-bureaucrats ruled the world together. That is to say, no matter how civil officials Do all the bad things, the worst result is to be demoted to a poor place to be an official.

Relegation to an official in a bitter cold place means killing people in a disguised form, but Zhao Yun doesn’t like this if he has a chance to survive. The Song Dynasty’s attitude towards the distinction between civil officials and military officials is too clear. If it’s both civil and military, it’s fine Treating civil servants so differently has caused a lot of people to feel confident. For so many years in the Song Dynasty, the case where civil servants were punished and most likely to be executed turned out to be Su Dongpo's Wutai poetry case, which is really eye-catching.

When Zhao Yun was working in China, in March, he suddenly received a report from the dark guard who had originally developed that Genghis Khan of Mongolia intended to contact Song Dynasty.

The contact between Song and Mongolia had already existed in Jiading 17 years ago, but because of the reason that the lips were dead and the teeth were cold, there was no contact after Wanyan Shouxu ascended the throne.

Genghis Khan later died in battle in the land of Xixia, and before he died, he formulated a development plan after Mongolia, one of which was to unite the Song Dynasty and destroy gold, which is enough to show that he himself also had this idea.

What the Han people brought to Genghis Khan was a developed civilization, and it was not without reason that he thought of making friends with the Song people.

Genghis Khan is still fighting Xixia, but he sent envoys to the Song Dynasty in his busy schedule. This is unprecedented in history. If we have to investigate the reason, it is probably that he and Zhao Yun continued to send to Mongolia in private people are related.

If you have to find a reason, you can force a wave of explanation.

Xixia was originally attached to Mongolia, but now they have betrayed Mongolia and united with the Kingdom of Jin. In order to completely defeat the Kingdom of Jin, Genghis Khan led his army to the west in the event of a stalemate in the war, plundering a large amount of wealth and population. To put it bluntly, it is the money bag of the Kingdom of Jin. Genghis Khan plundered so many small western countries, and it cannot be compared with the wealth of the Great Song Dynasty. It is normal for him to want to make friends with the Great Song Dynasty when he has already booked the Kingdom of Jin as his target. things.

But he sent the youngest son Tuo Lei who stayed by his side all the time and mastered a lot of troops. It seemed that Genghis Khan had paid too much attention to Da Song.

The author has something to say: elder brother and second elder brother are the brothers who refer to each other in the ranking, and they are called the second younger brother directly, combined with the characteristics of the background of the times, I don't know why it is weird.

During the rule of the Yuan people, the Han people had the custom of throwing their first child. It is reasonable. After seeing the Yuan people, I am not sure which side started to practice it first, but it is still backward. 】

If it is said that the people of the Yuan Dynasty saw this special system in the West when they went west, hehe, it really hurt people a lot
