After more than ten years of governance by Zhao Qiong, the Song Dynasty had completely recovered its vitality from the Jingkang Incident and created another prosperous era since its founding. This article was first published by... However, Zhao Qiong knew that there had been "prosperity" more than once in Chinese history.

, but there is no prosperous era that lasts for a hundred years, let alone lasting forever. On the contrary, every prosperous era is accompanied by profound political and economic crises. The decline after the prosperous era is often the beginning of the end of that dynasty, and the smoke of war.

Towards destruction.

When the dynasties of China emerged, they often started with the opportunity of rebellion or conquest. After the turmoil, there was a peaceful world of political clarity and people's happiness. After rest and recuperation, the national strength was strengthened, and the rulers often rely on their strong national strength.

The east and west conquer the territory, and then use force to create a so-called prosperous era. What follows is that the world is invincible, and all countries come to pay tribute to the court. The rulers and people who are intoxicated will be intoxicated and do not want to make progress, and will sing and dance to achieve peace.

The declining dynasty will either perish in domestic turmoil or be destroyed by invasion of foreign races, and begin another cycle.

Prosperous in war, prosperous in war, and finally destroyed in war. This may be the law of the four-part "prosperity, prosperity, decline, and death" of Chinese dynasty politics. War has become the culprit of destruction. But how can we break this law in agriculture

In the era of civilized imperialism, there seems to be no way out, and the subsequent capitalism, socialism, and a group of people that no one has seen before seem to be still exploring and exploring.

Zhao Qi came from the modern so-called civilized and democratic society a thousand years later. In this century, he experienced two full-scale wars, followed by the Cold War. The local wars and regional conflicts followed. It seems that they have never been far from people's vision.

The politicians and knowledgeable people have been reflecting for a hundred years on how to eliminate wars. Create a peaceful global village and try to avoid the recurrence of tragedy. But it seems that all have little effect, and it only avoids the outbreak of a major war, and regional hot spots are still everywhere.

world.

After Zhao Qiong took power, he tried to establish a new order based on what he knew in his previous life to maintain the long-term stability of the Song Dynasty. Of course, it is impossible to implement a modern democratic system. Isn’t that just to revolutionize his own life and not to mention what others have to do?

The entire royal family had to refute him first. Besides, there was no spontaneous sense of democracy in this era and did not meet the conditions for implementation. Instead, it was a high probability that the country would be divided under the current conditions.

After thinking about it, Zhao Qi thought that ultimate deterrence was still an important means to control war. There was no war in the world in the previous life because of nuclear weapons that could destroy the world. Its existence became an important means for major powers to maintain peace, because everyone was afraid of such destruction.

The guy who destroyed the earth. Zhao Qi brought the Age of Firearms to this world in advance. Its power may be no less than that of nuclear weapons in later generations in the eyes of today.

But in fact, it seems that no war is simple at all. The Song Dynasty launched wars with unequal strength. One side was well-equipped organizational forces, while the other side was low-level cold weapons. The object of war.

It is not just a region that crosses, but it includes a constantly changing alliance between local warlords, religious forces and other stakeholders. It also makes the victory achieved by the Song Dynasty difficult to define.

Another common consensus in modern society is that people around the world need to understand each other and establish a close dependence through economic and trade exchanges, so there will never be war. Global trade and investment are actively expanding on a large scale. A large number of immigrants are flooding

To strange lands, everyone hopes to use arbitration to resolve disputes rather than force. However, it also has hidden dangers. Globalization has spawned radical ideology and spread to all parts of the world. They hold the same goal to overthrow

The existing social order establishes a perfect social order.

In this era, with the footsteps of the Song Dynasty's business traveling all over the world, it also brought rich profits to the Song Dynasty, but at the same time it attracted greedy eyes and inspired the rise of local nationalism and religious extremism. They regarded the Song Dynasty as the Song Dynasty.

For the plunderers and heresies of wealth. Their various actions forced Zhao Qiong to use force to open up trade routes, eliminate and intimidate those who covet the wealth of the Song Dynasty, and turn himself into a real plunderer under the banner of maintaining justice.

Like the colonists, Xixia, Dali, and the same is true for the expedition to the Seljuk Empire.

Zhao Qiong also faces the same problem as modern great powers, that is, the vassal states, their every move involves their nerves. These vassal states were originally accepted for the Song Dynasty to maintain their own interests, and of course they had to pay a certain price.

Not only does it require economic support, but it also needs to provide help and protection when it is threatened. It is ironic that some 'limited states' often become more arbitrary because of their support, even though the Song Dynasty

A lot of money and energy invested but unable to fully implement the impact of responding.

The Mongolians are quite typical examples. They suffered considerable losses due to their behavior, and also broke the strategic layout of the Song Dynasty, allowing the Tatars to go deep into the "safe zone" and the Jin Dynasty obtained a strategic buffer zone.

But the bad thing is that no matter what threat it faces, Da Song cannot give up on it for his own interests and honor, and he still has to swallow this bitter fruit of his own. It seems that Zhao Qiong was moved by Yesuge's words, so it is better to

He said that he had found a psychological comfort and reason for himself. Killing him may eliminate future troubles, but now the world has changed drastically, so what can Temujin be born?

In history, countless politicians and knowledgeable people have not found a real way to eliminate war. They exhausted their wisdom and got only countries that became the past in the smoke of war. Zhao Zhen has been in such a long time

The emperor understood one truth: as long as there are interests, there will be disputes, and war will always serve politics, and war will eventually be terminated by war. All he can do is to ensure that he can do what is in front of him and to fight another hundred years for the Song Dynasty.

Foundation...

..............

The annual New Year's Court meeting was held again. The civil and military officials and foreign envoys who attended the court meeting were all surprised when they saw the emperor leading a child in Mongolian costume to the throne. Hututa was even more shocked and dropped his chin. The child was just

It was his nephew Yesuge who was captured by the officers and soldiers because of intercepting the Holy Driving. Although the emperor did not say anything, everyone understood that this was equivalent to a high-profile announcement to countries around the world that the Mengwu tribe was still an ally and close partner of the Song Dynasty.

In the following days, the Mengwu tribe received warm hospitality from the Song Dynasty. The emperor changed the custom of sending people to participate in the archery competition of the third grade of junior high school, but asked the Hutus of the Mengwu tribe to represent the Song Dynasty.

.Hhututu really lived up to expectations. All three rounds were worthy of red hearts and won the first place. He was awarded the title of General of Cavalry by the emperor. He was awarded armor, sword, and a hundred taels of gold. He was famous in the capital for a while.

On the fifth day of the lunar month, the emperor presided over the ceremony of the eldest son Zhao Yuguan, and guarded the ceremonial guards with Hututa as the leader to protect the way. On the tenth day of the lunar month, the emperor did not ride the tall war horse from Arabia, but chose to accompany Hututa on the battlefield.

The war horse; on the 14th Lantern Festival, Hutus also appeared on the Xuanhe Building, and the tiger skin on the imperial throne was said to be the one he offered.

Hutushu, a local bun, who has always been despised, has become the emperor's favorite minister. The popular people around him have caused countless envy, jealousy and hatred! The Song Dynasty treated Mengwu tribe so well, so that politicians with a keen sense of smell can understand this.

The signal released by the Chinese warned the Jin Kingdom, almost pointing at their noses and saying, "Don't touch the Mengwu tribe anymore, he is from my Song Dynasty."

As the person involved, Hu Tuta was naturally moved by the storm. The results obtained during this trip to the Song Dynasty were far beyond his imagination, especially the emperor's "sincerity" completely conquered the Mongolian warrior. He knew his current situation very well, and the population was very clear.

There are less than 20,000 people who can fight on horseback, and there are few taels of silver in their pockets, and the jingling sound is the sound of the poor, and they are also facing the pursuit of powerful enemies and are always facing the threat of extermination.

How about their relatives in the severe situation faced by the Mengwu tribe? They took the opportunity to seize their khan position, divided up the few property in the tribe, and led their tribe members away from him for another development, leaving only that one left.

The name of Khan is worthless, a small tribe with today and not tomorrow. Now the Emperor of Song Dynasty not only promised to provide assistance, but also promised to help him revenge and gave him enough face in the face of many countries. Who is not so proud of now

He glanced at it, but he knew that it was the person who was looking at the emperor rather than him.

Two days ago, the emperor ordered him to enter the palace to discuss solutions. Considering that the Mengwu tribe has been newly defeated and his division strength has been greatly weakened, he suggested that he lead his troops to move to the Dading area to restore vitality, so that it will be easier to obtain assistance nearby.

When the time is right, then return to the grassland. Hu Tutu agreed deeply. The Song Dynasty and the Jin Dynasty had peace talks first. The Jurchens did not participate in the war directly, and the Song Dynasty was not convenient to directly help. But they alone could not fight even if they received assistance.

The Tatar people responded and proposed to lead their troops to return to the Song Dynasty.

Unexpectedly, the Emperor of Song rejected his kindness to return to Song, saying that the Mengwu tribe is at the most difficult time now, and the Song Dynasty cannot take advantage of the dangers of his friends to do unkind and unjust things and annex their tribe. If there is one day Meng

When Wu tribes rose again and became the lord of the grassland, they still had this wish. The Song Dynasty would definitely welcome them at any time, but they would never agree now. Hu Tuta was really impressed by what the Emperor of Song Dynasty said and did, and was prostrated for himself again.

I deeply regretted what I did at the beginning.

At the first court meeting after the annual leave on the 20th day of the first lunar month, Zhao Jia announced the restoration of aid to the Mengwu tribe, and ordered the designated pastures between Dading and Linhuang Prefecture to be their place of rest. Hu Tuo Shuo Xie Xie
