Chapter 705

"The king of Shu is dead."

Xiao Ming folded the music that di Ying had sent.

One month after Xiao Zhen led 20000 people to Sichuan, he got the news.

Because of this, both Fijian and Pang Yukun went to the imperial study to discuss the matter.

"As expected, the king of Shu refused to surrender." Said Pang.

Fijian said: "Xiao Zhen's last act of killing his family is a good move, which not only makes the emperor appreciate him, but also wins the favor of Yizhou's aristocrats."

"But these three princes are cruel enough. This is his brother. "Pang Yukun seems to have said unintentionally.

Xiao Ming glances at him. Pang Yukun is just reminding him that the third prince is a cruel man and asking him to be on guard.

"I know what you mean, so I'm going to order to withdraw the name of the vassal state of Shu and make it a government. The army of Shu will be under the command of Di Ying for the time being. In this way, the third prince will be a tiger without teeth. If he has any unusual behavior, I can finish him at any time." Xiao Ming said.

Pang Yukun nodded, "the most taboo thing for the vassal is to grasp the military and political power. Now we only need to master the army to control Shu."

"In addition, we will send some loyal officials in the past. In this way, the land of Shu is no different from that of Wei, and the third prince's being in Shu is just like exile." Fiji said.

Xiao Ming nodded. Naturally, he has no pity for the third prince. If he succeeds, there is no pity.

He didn't kill him, just because he won Shu without blood. This is a great achievement, which is enough for him to continue to enjoy the glory and wealth, but it is impossible for him to continue to enter the political center of the state of Dayu.

After talking about the third prince, Xiao Ming leads them to the map. In addition to discussing the establishment of Yizhou Prefecture, he also seeks for the barbarians.

During this period, the memorials of the frontier were one after another, and the contents of the memorials were almost the same. They were all news of the barbarians' changes in the frontier.

However, both Shanhai Pass and Juyong Pass are guarded. The barbarians seem to have a headache. They often drive out the slave soldiers and retreat after a wave of attack.

However, this situation still caused the uneasiness of the government and the opposition, and even the idea of reconciliation came out, which made Xiao Ming very angry.

They looked at several circles on the map. They were all the places recently attacked by barbarians. They were all important checkpoints along the Great Wall.

"Emperor, now there are some heinous remarks about barbarians in the court. Some officials have softened their knees, some want to be courtiers, some want to pay tribute, and some want to make peace. It's ridiculous. "Pang Yukun sneered.

Fijian said, "when the former Emperor was here, he always blamed himself for compromising with the barbarians. If he didn't let the barbarians enter the pass, he wouldn't let the state of Dayu decline. So far, the emperor is the master of ambition. Naturally, he doesn't have to pay attention to the curfew in the court. The old minister thinks that the barbarians are not greedy enough. Only when they are subdued, they will take their claws away."

"I'm relieved if you say that. As the saying goes, the upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked. If you agree with them, the court will be over."

After a pause, he said to them, "go back and tell them that my three principles will not change. Those who want to become ministers will take off their official clothes and go to the barbarians to become ministers. I will not stop them. Those who want to pay tribute will give their money to the barbarians, and I will not stop them. As for those who want to make peace, let them give their money to them I'll cut off the head of anyone who dares to send his own daughter off. "

"Ha ha ha..." Pang Yukun laughed, "emperor, if so, I'm afraid none of the ministers would dare to agree. It's not so easy to be generous to the country, but not to be generous to themselves."

Fijian nodded, "after I go back, I will tell them what the emperor said."

Xiao Ming shakes his head. Some people can't stand up when they are used to kneeling. If you ask them to stand up, they still scold you.

Now there are such a group of people in the court. He asked Qian Dafu to write down their names. He is going to check whether these people are corrupt in the future.

According to convention, those who like to kneel are often greedy.

But Xiao Ming didn't let them look at the map for the barbarians. Now with the Yanyun pass, the barbarians have no way to enter the northern hinterland for a while.

The purpose of the two of them was for Korea.

So he said, "let's not mention the barbarians. Today I'm going to talk to you about Korea. I think it's time to deal with Korea. "

" fighting again? Emperor, there's really no money left to fight now. Besides, Korea is far away from the state of Dayu. It's bound to arouse the masses. " Pang Yukun cried poverty directly.

Fijian echoed: "the emperor, Pang Shoufu is telling the truth. The Treasury is so small. The emperor has set aside six million yuan to support the industry. On weekdays, he has to open mines, build schools, and build roads. In this way, he can't make ends meet."

Xiao Ming also understood the current situation. He said to them, "that's why I want to fight Korea. Naturally, the more I fight in China, the poorer I am. But it's a good business to fight Korea. Over the years, the state of Dayu has offered a lot of silver to the Barbarians. Now I also want to let Gaoli offer some silver to Dayu."After a pause, he continued: "moreover, fighting Korea is also for merchants to sell goods, but also for cutting off the barbarians' arms. "

both of them are smart people. They can understand each other when they think about it.

Pang Yukun said: "emperor, in this case, let the merchants out of the materials and costs of the attack on Korea."

Now Fiji and Pang Yukun are surprisingly consistent. He said: "since the attack on Korea is for the sale of goods, this war is for businessmen. It's hard to say that they can't afford money. It's better to sell Korea's trade to these businessmen in exchange for goods and silver. "

Xiao Ming nodded slightly. That's why he asked them to come. He said," that's what I think, so why don't you talk to the businessmen and let them buy the trading rights of Korea? "

" yes, the emperor. " They bowed to each other.

The solution to the problem of capital is to attack Korea. For Xiao Ming, of course, the best way to fight is to keep the enemy out of the country.

It's better to smash someone's home than to smash his own. This time, he attacked Korea and brought disaster to the East.

Moreover, it would be better to let the barbarians change their strategy. In this way, the pressure of Yanyun will be much less.

The three agreed on this matter. Xiao Ming then sent a letter to Yue Yun to prepare him. The main forces of the attack on Korea were the Navy and the Marine Corps.
