Chapter 522: Enthroned the governor of Xichuan Road!

Although Yelu Dashi occupied a remote area, he has not yet called himself a country to the outside world.

Hearing his subordinates' suggestions, Yelu Dashi's heart moved.

He might be fine for the time being. Once he was promoted to the outside world, he was really worried that the Song Dynasty would be unhappy when he found out and sent troops to destroy him.

After thinking about it, Yelu Dashi smiled bitterly and said, "It's too early now. We need to develop slowly. When one day our troops, food and grass will develop to a certain scale, we'll talk about it."

Yelu Dashi doesn't want to be too high-profile, for fear of being hit.

In fact, he had thought about the name of the country. If they founded a country here, it would be called Western Liao. It would continue the glory of Liao.

However, they don’t have this good opportunity yet, so they dare not do whatever they want.

Yelu Dashi: "Now we have tens of thousands of troops to support, but fortunately we still have some silver in our hands and some mines here. Recently, we need to exchange more paper money to maintain cooperation with the Song Dynasty. As long as we keep cooperation, let the Song Dynasty make money, they will definitely not touch us."

"What the general said!"

"Now Tubo, Dali and other countries have begun to exchange banknotes to buy food from the Song Dynasty. Xixia was destroyed. This matter is too sudden. I am afraid that if we do not cooperate, we will suffer!"

They had controversy about this before, and they felt that they would definitely not want to change the small amount of silver to paper.

Seeing that Xixia was destroyed, they immediately agreed without saying a word. They also took the initiative to send someone to discuss cooperation.

After all, people are afraid of being cruel.

at the same time.

Wu Zhi began to think about how to improve the economy of the Song Dynasty.

It is also necessary to exchange as much as possible when exchanging paper money for gold from other countries.

The more paper money in other countries, the more it will spread, and the more economic benefits they will be. In addition, the cooperation between the Song Dynasty and them is not just about food, but also can sell tea, sweet potatoes, glass, and even weapons, warships and other martial arts plants.

Now the people from the Wuzhi Government Affairs Department are constantly spreading in Yanyun, Liao and Xixia.

The power is gradually growing, and his disciples are becoming more and more.

Officials of the Government Affairs Department are extremely respectful of Wu Zhi, who established the Government Affairs Department. Many officials have the ability to do things, but do not have the ability to pass the scientific examination. The Government Affairs Department provides them with opportunities.

Wu Zhi’s idea is that after the scientific examination is released, he still needs to be a practical matter of becoming an official. If the Government Affairs Department can do a good job and recruit talents, there will be no need for scientific examinations.

This led to their gratitude to the Government Affairs Department, so everyone who came from the Government Affairs Department was grateful to Wu Zhi in his heart.

Everything is moving in a good direction.

Xixia has also been temporarily stable, and the recycling and distribution of fertile fields has been completed under the calculations of countless officials in recent times.

The efficiency is still very high.

The people of Xixia had been a little angry when they felt the fertile land was recycled, but after the fertile land was released, the people of Xixia were filled with tears of excitement.

Why?

Because they hand over fertile land, the superiors will give the people a considerable amount of compensation, and at the same time adopt a loan system, and different families allocate fertile land loans according to the cap. If they have the ability to plant more, they can borrow more, and it will not be capped.

This means that they did not have good fertile fields in their hands before, and now there are no restrictions.

The large amount of fertile land from the royal relatives and nobles of the Xixia royal family and nobles was distributed to the people.

This led to them using a small amount of money or loans to exchange for a large amount of good fertile land.

No one can believe it.

You should know that those who borrowed loans had no money, and they directly obtained twice or even three times the amount of fertile land they had before.

Still a fertile place.

The fertile fertile land was once in the hands of the nobles, and the quality of the people's fertile land was very poor.

Now they can also have good fields.

Moreover, the Song Dynasty was in power and there was a national policy of reducing taxes. This made the people of Xixia very happy.

The most important thing is that a batch of supplies was transported from the Song Dynasty, many of which were fresh agricultural products, such as sweet potato seeds, melon seeds, super high-quality varieties, etc., were transported here and distributed to the hands of ordinary people. They also told them that the annual output of these varieties can reach several times their previous years.

He also sent a farmer from the Government Affairs Department to explain and teach them the cultivation techniques.

As a result, the people of Xixia all began to be busy and suddenly realized that the destruction of Xixia might not be a bad thing.

Of course, some varieties cannot be grown this season, but some are OK.

Moreover, when members of the Government Affairs Department visit the countryside, they will ask any difficulties to the people of the people, and report to solve them after understanding them.

It is truly a service to the people. Some previous disputes were not resolved by Xixia officials at all, but the people from the Government Affairs Department would help them.

In short, the operation of the Wuzhi Government Affairs Department made the people of Xixia feel that the destruction of Xixia was actually of great benefit to them.

The people had a premonition that a good day was coming, and they felt refreshed.

"I told me that the destruction of Xixia may not be a bad thing. The prime minister of the Song Dynasty has a good reputation. I heard that he is a wise minister who benefits the people of the world. We will live better and better under his management. As long as we live a good life, who is the emperor who cares about him!"

"Well, it makes sense! We ordinary people just want to be safe and have some money."

After this period of time, Xixia has completely entered the normal development, and the people have also smiled.

In addition to Han Shizhong's stay, Western Xia, like Yue Fei, Song Jiang and others had already returned to the Bianjing of the Song Dynasty.

A large number of imperial guards have also returned.

Of course, there are still many troops guarding the Xixia side, all of which were recruited by Han Shizhong locally and left some of the wing troops transferred from the Song Dynasty.

The Xiang army was not an imperial guard, but an imperial guard was an elite unit of the Northern Song Dynasty, especially the imperial guards trained by Wu Zhi.

During the famine, a large number of refugees are likely to appear in disaster-stricken areas. If local officials cannot handle it properly, it will easily cause civil unrest. The so-called benefit of hundreds of generations is to raise soldiers.

In the worst year, there will be a hungry year, and there will be a rebel against the people but no rebel soldiers. If you are unhappy and happy, there will be a rebel against the people but no rebel against the people.

At this time, it's time for the wing army to come on the field.

The Northern Song regime would absorb strong refugees into the wing army troops to reduce the possibility of this part of man's rebellion.

People with craftsmanship among the refugees, such as bricklayers, carpenters, etc., will be absorbed and placed nearby.

These factors will cause the number of wing troops to be extremely large, but the combat effectiveness is very poor.

The main force of Xixia has been eliminated, so there is no need to retain the imperial guards. With the consent of Song Huizong, Wu Zhi took the imperial guards back and sent them to the Xiang army to hand over, allowing Han Shizhong to train them while guarding Xixia according to his own training method.

Of course, there are also some local recruited soldiers. In total, there are at least 180,000 troops guarding Xixia.

After everything is done.

Wu Zhi went to the military camp that morning.

Count the losses of soldiers and generals.

Report all those who have made contributions.

Song Huizong gave these rewards to those who should be granted, those who should be promoted, and those who should be given pensions were given.

Yue Fei, Han Shizhong and others have all improved their first grade one after another.

As the leader of the attack on the Western Xia, Wu Zhi also received the reward of ink from Song Huizong, gold, silk, horses and other things. At the same time, Wu Zhi was granted the title of General of the State.

He was already the prime minister, and these official positions were just an honor, so Emperor Huizong of Song also decided to reward Wu Zhi.

He thought about it and simply enthroned Wu Zhi as the governor of Xichuan Road.

This Xichuan Road was renamed Xixia and later became the administrative district of the road in the Song Dynasty.

Wu Zhi, the governor, was different from others. He was specially approved by Emperor Huizong of Song to have the power to manage local military and all government affairs.

This caused a stir in the court. Although this was not a fiefdom, it was also a little king.

At the beginning of the establishment of the Northern Song Dynasty, the Jiedushi had great power. The Northern Song Dynasty inherited the old system of the Five Dynasties, so many things were not in time to be modified.

At first, the Jiedushi of the Northern Song Dynasty, in addition to its prefecture, also commanded a state or several prefectures, called branch counties, and the military, political and financial powers under the jurisdiction were monopolized by the Jiedushi, which was actually a semi-independent small kingdom.

From this point of view, this is no obvious difference from the Jiedushi of the Tang Dynasty.

The emperor Zhao Kuangyin was born as a military general, and his process of becoming an emperor was rather awkward. He did not start from scratch like Liu Bang and Zhu Yuanzhang and fought step by step.

Instead, like the generals of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, they took power step by step.

We all know that Zhao Kuangyin launched the Chenqiaoyi mutiny and put on a yellow robe.

He was very taboo about military generals, not to mention the wealthy and military governors, for fear that they would imitate themselves and do this.

So he and his successor, his younger brother Zhao Guangyi, gradually removed the military power of the general through various means and measures, making the Jiedushi a false position.

For the Jiedushi, the most important thing is military, political and financial power.

In the Qiande period, the court ordered all tax revenues in various places to be transported to the court except for daily military expenses, which deprived the local government of its own power to handle taxes and cut off the lifeline of the local government.

In the same year, Zhao Kuangyin ordered the prefectures to select elite soldiers to the court, weakening the local military power.

During the reign of Emperor Taizong of Song Dynasty, he ordered all the branches of the Jiedushi to be directly under the court. The Jiedushi was only one prefecture, but the court also served as the magistrate and the prefect.

In this way, the Jiedushi didn't even have to worry about local government affairs.

After that, the Jiedushi gradually became a false position, or a kind of honor, and was undermined.

Generally, it is granted to royal family members, relatives, ethnic minority leaders and civil and military ministers. After releasing military power with a cup of wine, many of the heroes went to the local area to serve as military governors. They had no power, but were treated very well.

Wu Zhi, the governor, was specially approved to have the right to manage local government affairs and military affairs, including finance.

So to a certain extent, Wu Zhi, the Jiedushi, had restored the power of the Jiedushi in the early Northern Song Dynasty.

But how can this work?!!!

This incident caused people in the court to change their brilliance!

They were shocked by the officials' generosity and also felt that they were too ignorant.

Is Your Majesty the prodigal son of the Song Dynasty?

Once you take action, you will be in the scope of a country!
