"Well, get up, you've worked hard too. I don't know how our army's casualties are?" Zhao Ji cared about his soldiers.

Wang Gui replied respectfully, "The soldiers of the Jin Kingdom are very crazy, especially after they changed their tactics, they no longer fought with us on the plains, and they fought in the streets, causing us a lot of casualties. It used to be 50,000 people when we set off, and now we have only 50,000 people. There are only less than 30,000... Wei Chen asked for a temporary training, and the climate in the north is very cold, so many soldiers are not used to it!

It is true that the casualties are not small, almost half of the casualties. The climate in the north is much colder than that in the south. If the thermal insulation facilities cannot keep up with the number of soldiers, it will be troublesome. Zhao Ji thought for a while, then nodded and said, "Well, it's okay, but you must set up a camp and guard the place, and don't let the golden soldiers take advantage of it!

"August 20" "Follow the order!

Then Bai Yuhuan went to the old house of her family. It was a big yard with five houses. The courtyard was deep. Now this place has been returned to Bai Yuhuan, and there are still a few soldiers standing guard outside.

After arriving here, Bai Yuhuan cried bitterly, comforted the spirit of the ancestors, and began to let people clean up the place.

As the monarch of a country, Zhao Ji naturally couldn't accompany Bai Yuhuan all the time. He inspected the military discipline. Maybe the soldiers knew that the emperor was here, and everyone was careful. Then Zhao Ji went to Liaoyang Mansion and Huanglong Mansion. At this time, Wang Gui's troops were cleaned up, and it was the same thing.

He didn't know how Yue Fei contacted Wang Gui, but now Wang Gui's military discipline has improved.

Now from the Bohai Bay to the Huanglong Mansion, it is already the territory of the Song Dynasty, which further squeezes the sphere of influence of the Jurchen. At the same time, more ministers of the original Liao Kingdom were eager to move, and they all began to plan secretly, and the Jurchen had to shrink their forces and give up some places to concentrate on protecting important states and counties.

Nowadays, in response to Yelu Yanxi, there are many cities with the banner of the Daliao Empire, and there is no Jurchen power in these places. It seemed that Da Liao was very powerful, but Zhao Ji just sneered.

Originally, he asked Yelu Yanxi to make trouble for Jurchen in the rear, but now it seems to be working well. On the one hand, Jurchen had to suppress the rebellion, and on the other hand, she had to deal with Da Song's attack.

As for the restoration of the Liao Kingdom and the chaos, hehe, let's not talk about the mountains of corpses and blood that the Liao Kingdom was killed by the Jurchen. In order to fear the Liao Kingdom's repetition, the Jurchen will pass the Liao Kingdom's soldiers over and over again, killing all that can be killed. The rest of the guys are all flattering people, they can use the rudder when they see the wind, but they can only laugh at war!

Only these people have lost all their vigor. In front of the Song Dynasty army, can they have a second choice besides surrendering?

As Zhao Ji said to Yelu Yanxi at the time, "Your country is my country!"

Zhao Ji is fully aware of some of Yelu Yanxi's careful thoughts, but in the face of absolute strength, Yelu Yanxi and the others are running around and shouting like a joke, just take a look.

The emperor was a spiritual pillar in ancient times. Every time Zhao Ji went to a place, the soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty would be extremely excited. Just two short words of encouragement would make those soldiers pay back with death. Zhao Ji had to sigh that the ancients were really simple.

In the face of these soldiers, Zhao Ji also asked himself that he could not treat them badly. If it wasn't for their life-and-death battle, where would there be the luxury and stability of the Great Song Dynasty, and they couldn't treat the meritorious officials like the original Song Huizong.

With Zhao Ji's tacit approval, Song Jun raided many manor houses occupied by Jin Bing in the local area, which can be regarded as a bonus for the soldiers. And Liang Shumou, who was chartered to follow the army, also made a lot of money. It must be known that the time of war is also the time to make the most money.

What to do with the things the soldiers seized? They couldn't carry them all with them, so they could only sell them to Liang Shumou. Things that were originally worth 100 guans may have been sold for five ounces, and there are many local specialties that Liang Shu made a fortune.

Therefore, the smile on Tianliang Shumou's face has not gone down. Of course, part of his harvest has to be handed over to Zhao Ji, but the income is already big enough. It seems that his original plan was not wrong. If it wasn't for the decisive action at the time, which made His Majesty's eyes more attractive, it would not be his turn to intervene in this errand. 0

Because of Liang Shumou's incident, it taught those businessmen a lesson and made those people regret it. Liang Shumou's net worth was much richer, but he didn't seize the opportunity, thinking that the emperor was exploiting them, and tried to take out as little as possible. But they never thought that the benefits of the emperor's return were so huge that Liang Shumou's wealth would surpass them in the future, how could he not be envious and jealous!

This time Zhao Ji spoke again, hoping that the merchants could donate some cotton-padded clothes to keep the soldiers warm. This time, the businessmen were all vying for the first place. Even if His Majesty the Emperor did not appear, but only sent an eunuch to preside over it, they were all very enthusiastic.

To say that the Song Dynasty was the richest in the world at that time, no one can deny it.

Although the financial situation of the Song Dynasty was not very good, after so many years of scourges by Song Huizong, the foundation was empty, but a lot of money went to the hands of corrupt officials and big businessmen. Zhao Ji ransacked his house several times, and the money he got was basically spent on the Northern Expedition, but those big businessmen were still very rich.

In order to seek greater benefits, these businessmen joined together, contributed money and efforts, and raised enough winter clothing and many other things in a short period of time.

When Xiao Lizi came to report to Zhao Ji with a smile, Zhao Ji also smiled.

"These guys are really donkey-tempered. They don't go away under 3.2, they want to go backwards, and they need to move along the hair!" Zhao Ji looked at the statistics list and couldn't help but feel very relieved.

"Your Majesty's words are very true, you didn't see those attitudes, one by one, rushing to donate money and materials, the servants don't need to say anything. These guys are really rich, they can even help me in the Song Dynasty. It's also their honor to contribute!" Xiao Lizi was joking aside.

Zhao Ji laughed, "The nature of businessmen is to make money, what are they doing so much for, isn't there a greater chance of making money? Now Liang Shumou has monopolized the business in the Northeast, which of course makes others jealous, but there is no They can't even reach out for my permission, and now they will naturally not let it go when they have the opportunity.
