On the fifth day of the fourth month, the Emperor of the Song Dynasty moved to Yonghe. The rivers in western Liaoning were crisscrossing and irrigation were convenient. They were important grain-producing areas throughout the ages. This was the spring plowing season, but Zhao Jie was unable to see the scene of plowing oxen everywhere along the way.

The prefectures and counties along the way were almost always victorious without fighting, with basically no population loss and agricultural facilities not damaged, but they were so depressed that he couldn't help but worry.

"Chen Aiqing, have all the officials in the newly harvested land taken office?" Zhao Qiong knew that the season would not wait for anyone. Missing spring plowing would delay the harvest for a year. It would be a pity that such good fields would be idle and abandoned, but it would also cause great results.

The losses will bring great pressure to the rear in the future. As soon as the camp was resettled, he summoned the ministers in his escort to a meeting.

"Your Majesty, as early as the years ago, Imperial College and other people selected capable officials and students from the Imperial College in accordance with the imperial edict, and concentrated on learning the way of governing the country and the people in Luoyang, Yanjing and Dading, as alternate officials of the newly acquired land,

But after the war started, we marched quickly, and the Ministry of Personnel was still caught off guard, but we still couldn't catch up with our attack speed. Now they are gradually entering with the cooperation of the state army!" Right Prime Minister Chen Go said with a wry smile.

"Haha, the plan cannot keep up with the changes!" Zhao Xiao said with a smile. The rapid development of the battle situation exceeded his imagination, let alone these cautious people. "The most urgent task now is to stabilize the hearts of the people in the newly harvested land as soon as possible.

Resuming production and ensuring the lives of the people.”

"Your Majesty, seeds, oxen and farm tools are all in place. As long as you need it, you can be transported quickly. The officials are still worried about the matter and do not know how to deal with it." Hu Quan, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, came out and started the remarks.

"Oh, what's the difficulty? Are you still afraid that no one wants anything?" Zhao Qi asked in confusion.

"Your Majesty, the newly harvested places include Han people who lived in western Liaoning at the beginning of the founding of the country, and the people of the Central Plains who were captured during the Jingkang period, as well as Khitan immigrants, Xi people, Bohai people, and Jurchen people who were moved here. Do you want to distinguish them?

Treatment. If there is a difference, it will cause unstable people in other ethnic groups. If they are treated equally, they are worried about causing dissatisfaction among our ethnic groups. Therefore, they are in a dilemma and dare not act without authorization." Hu Quan reported.

"Well, this is indeed a problem, and we didn't expect it in advance." Zhao Qi nodded and said.

When Yan Yun was recovered, due to fierce resistance, the virginity of the Song army was basically killed. And there were many people in the Central Plains who were captured here and naturally wanted to be on the Song Dynasty, but they had a bone-cutting attitude towards the Jurchens.

For hatred, officials sent by the Song Dynasty could rely on them to quickly open up the situation and impart the land according to the laws of the Song Dynasty.

But the situation is a bit complicated now. Saliyu led the crowd to surrender, and these people must not be killed without permission, and their property and land must be retained; and because it is close to the Xi people, the Khitans and the Bohai people immigrated a lot, these people defected to the Jin Kingdom earlier.

, the status is higher than that of the Han people, and they also have certain property. But most of them are still affiliated with the Jurchens. There are still very few foreigners who have obtained a high position in Meng'an like Xiao Yu; the most pitiful ones are of course the Han people who were captured here, and they are in society

The lowest level of the Jurchens became a slave to the Jurchens. They have nothing to do so.

"Your Majesty, it is better to move those aliens in the same old ways and confiscate all their land and property as long as they leave this place. It is impossible to rebel." Chen Gou saw that the emperor had not answered for a long time and offered advice.

"No, although the migration of alien races can solve the temporary urgent problem. However, it will trigger greater resistance from alien races in unrecovered places, which is a way to quench thirst. Don't forget that during the Jingkang Incident, the people enthusiastically joined the army and participated in the volunteer resistance against Jin.

Because of his immigration, Zhao Qi shook his head and refused. He knew that in the farming society, land is the foundation of human survival, and it can be said that it is the lifeblood of farmers. If you move him from the place where you live, you won’t be able to play with your life.

What a weird thing!

"Your Majesty, can you use the method of restraint to control the barbarians and to appease the hearts of the people?" said Ma Kuo, Minister of Rites.

"You have just implemented the county system in Dali and abolished the law of banning. After finally opening up the situation, don't turn around again. Now we may encounter some difficulties for the time being, but it is conducive to long-term stability and can't act rashly anymore, otherwise we will today

If the Jurchens are eliminated, something else may appear in the future and fall into a vicious cycle of rebellion and conquest." Zhao Qi refused again. The Khitan, Jurchen and Mengwu were all small tribes, but they were all attached to each other in the end

After the decline of the great power, he took advantage of the situation to grow and became a mother gravedigger. He could no longer let this tragedy happen again.

"Your Majesty, can we imitate the practice at the beginning of Datong?" Zhao Yong thought for a while and said that when he led more than 10,000 troops into the Yunzhou area to create a base. In addition to military victory, it was precisely the emperor who used the original emperor to fight against the local tyrants.

The strategy of dividing land and awarding military merits quickly opened up the situation in the places where foreign races lived for generations, stabilized people's hearts, and of course they also used some methods to sow discord and disagree.

"Haha, I am also considering it, but time has changed and the situation is different, so we cannot copy it out loud. Some modifications need to be made!" Zhao Qi nodded and smiled. It was obvious that this plan was in line with his wishes.

"Please tell your Majesty!" Everyone was relieved when they saw the emperor. This was not possible and that was not possible just now, which made them feel at a loss. Outsiders knew that the court should not say that the high salary and wealth of the court raised them a bunch of waste.

"Time is rushing, and I can't think carefully for a while. There are only a few unclear opinions for everyone to consider." Zhao Xiao pondered for a moment, "The newly occupied land will be restored to the county system, and the imperial court will select officials. For the officials who surrender to the enemy, you can take the liability of the officials who surrender to the enemy.

Appointment; no matter what tribe the newly acquired people are, they are the people of our Song Dynasty. Those who sincerely submit to others should not be killed indiscriminately. They can all be granted land according to the law, pay taxes according to the rules, and participate in the imperial examination."

"Whether the city surrenders, no matter whether the officers and soldiers guarantee the safety of their families, their property and land shall not be confiscated. However, they shall not be allowed to raise private soldiers and slaves, and their families shall be released as people in the past; no matter who is an enemy of our Song Dynasty,

Official positions, rich and poor, and their families, land and property are confiscated and confiscated, and they will be severely punished; more care should be given to the people of our tribe, those who are willing to return home will pay travel expenses, and those who are willing to keep the land and property will be distributed to them, and priority will be given to recruiting local officials.

, yamen runners, village chiefs…”

"I think of this for the time being. You go down and discuss in detail the Chen Guang's announcement and implement it as soon as possible. If there is any inappropriateness, report it at any time." Zhao Qi said a few principles, and handed over the rest to the court officials.

The energy must be mainly focused on the war.

"Your Majesty, I have already recorded it." Everyone politely said, but they secretly praised the emperor's head for being good. In this way, everyone has land and do not have to pay two taxes to the lord and the court like they did in the past.

And they got rid of the control of the lord. The landlords in the past had confiscated their noble property, and had no private soldiers or slaves in their hands. If they wanted to rebel, no one would follow him. This eliminated the instability factor and allowed them to be not captured.

The local Jin people saw hope and reduced their resistance. The Han people were free from poverty and could be given priority to the officialdom. Although they became officials with great sesame, they greatly improved their status and weakened their dissatisfaction.

It's a killing of multiple goals.

"Your Majesty, the Jin Kingdom sent Xiao Zhonggong to pass through the border and said that he wanted to negotiate peace with us. Do we accept it?" After talking about stabilizing the people's hearts, Ma Kuo started the remarks.

"Haha, peace talks?! Do you think we are talking to them?" Zhao Qi felt very funny. The battles were like this. The Song army had a one-sided advantage. What's the point with them?

"Your Majesty, although we have no intention of making peace with them, we directly refuse to be inconsistent with the truth. It is better to see their purpose." Chen Go showed up as everyone laughed.

"Okay, Lord Ma, you go and meet Xiao Zhonggong to find out the bottom line of the Jurchens." Zhao Qi originally intended to directly reject the Jin Dynasty's request for peace talks, but he thought it was wrong. The old fox Wushu would not know that he would be at this time and he was also in a state of mind.

Negotiation is not a good thing, but he did such a thankless thing, and he wanted to find out and agreed...

After handling the political affairs, it was already dark. After dinner, Zhao Qiong read the war report sent to rest, but he was unable to fall asleep. He was thinking about the daytime. At the most inappropriate time, the Jin Kingdom sent envoys to discuss peace.

What made him feel strange, and what was even more abnormal was that the Jin army of Liaoyang Prefecture actually sent reinforcements to Jinzhou. Now the Mawei Navy Group of the Song army has reached the sea surface of Liaodong Bay and seized Yaozhou, which is obviously going north along the mouth of Liaohe River.

When attacking Liaoyang Prefecture, their actions cannot help but make people think too much.

Liaoyang Prefecture is actually the actual central city in the Northeast region, and its importance is self-evident to the Jin Dynasty. Losing this place is the same as losing the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun in the Song Dynasty. According to common sense, the Jin Dynasty should mobilize troops to ensure that the place is not

If you lose, with a strong city, you can reverse the entire battle situation by winning, instead of dividing troops to save a Jinzhou that has become an isolated city. Could it be that Wu Shu has not taken medicine these days and is confused?

"Is there anything in Jinzhou that Wu Shu reluctant to leave?" Zhao Qi couldn't figure out the joints and couldn't help but murmur.

"Second Master, there is nothing that Wu Shu can't bear in Jinzhou City, but there are brothers who Wanyan Dan can't bear!" Zhao Xin, who was sleeping beside him, suddenly answered.

"Yes, Wanyan Dan grew up with Wanyan Liang since childhood. The two have a close relationship. Although his brother wanted to seize his power when he grew up, he still missed Wanyan Liang, so he did not forget him.

Send troops to reinforce Jinzhou and want to rob him back." Zhao Qi was woken up by Zhao Xin's words, turned over and sat up.

"Second Master, do you want to use the deep brotherly love of others to siege the city and attack the reinforcements to weaken the troops of Liaoyang Prefecture!" Zhao Xin also sat up and put on a dress for the emperor and said.

"Haha, I know me, I am my beloved concubine!" Zhao Qi patted Zhao Xin's face intimately and said with a smirk... (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster!
