It can only be said that civilizations and systems may be different, but human nature is the same.
After Song Jun entered the city, Zhao En came running with a large number of dog legs.
In front of Qian Yuqing, he denounced the chief culprit of this war, King Harivarman of Champa, and Prime Minister Yin Jiangtao, the second war criminal.
"The detainment of the businessman was also done by Hari Varman. He is incompetent. He listened to Jiang Tao's slander, and it was his idea to kill Song Shang."
Qian Yuqing smiled and said, "Thank you for your hard work."
"No, no, being able to serve the Celestial Dynasty is the blessing of the villain's three lives."
Of course, Zhao En didn't come to surrender alone. He also brought a lot of powerful figures from the army and bureaucrats from his faction.
In the morning, the interior of the capital was already in chaos.
Rumors were flying all over the sky. Some said that the Song army was going to massacre the city, some said that many people had died in the east of the city, and some said that the king had fled.
When the news reached the palace, Khalivarman was still sound asleep.
When he was woken up, he was still confused and just asked, "Has the person sent to Jiaozhi returned?"
"Your Majesty, the Song army has entered the city."
"Oh, the Song army has entered the city..." Khalivarman rubbed his eyes, thought for a while, and then jumped up, "What did you say!"
"The Song army has entered the city!"
"Go summon Zhaoen! Go! I want to question him!"
"Your Majesty, the Prime Minister is seeking an audience outside."
Khalivarman yelled as he put on his clothes, "Send it quickly!"
Because Jiang Tao hurried in: "Your Majesty, Zhao En has joined the Song Army!"
"What!" Khalivarman was furious, "This is something that eats inside and out!"
"Your Majesty, hurry up and get ready, and run away! I'm already ready for your Majesty."
Khalivarman regretted in his heart: "I mistakenly believed in Zhao'en! It's my fault!"
"This is the end of the matter, your majesty, don't regret it any more."
"Where can I go now?" said Khalivarman, "to Cochin?"
"No, no, the person sent to Jiaozhi has already returned. He went to Zhao En's mansion first. The minister guessed that Jiao Zhi was unwilling to send troops, so Zhao En followed suit!"
I have to admit one thing: In this world, people who follow the wind can always get something more easily.
"That……"
"Escape to Chenla."
Khalivarman disguised himself as a commoner and escaped from the palace.
When Zhaoen brought people to the palace, he did not find Khalivarman.
At noon, Qian Yuqing also arrived at the palace.
Qian Yuqing's approach is different from Wu Lin's. Qian Yuqing didn't kill here.
Why are there two completely different situations in Champa and Cochin?
One is that Qian Yuqing himself was a businessman.
Second, the systems and ideologies of Champa and Cochin are completely different.
Cochin is a copy of the Celestial Dynasty, and there is always a jurisprudentially qualified king. As long as there are still people alive in this jurisprudential family, there will be ambitious people who will come out to do things.
But Champa is different. Champa believes in Hinduism.
The regime under the Hindu ideology does not have the tough power like the Celestial Dynasty, and there will be no extremely strong resistance.
This is also the reason for the extremely bloody change of dynasty in ancient China, because the ideology of the orthodox legal principles of the Celestial Dynasty is too powerful to control people's hearts.
If you don't cut the weeds and root them out, it's easy to get into trouble.
The combination of these two factors is the root cause.
However, Qian Yuqing still announced the crimes of Champa King Harivarman, but he never mentioned the intention of establishing a new king, and the great nobles also kept silent.
All the arrested businessmen were released.
So far, the core area of Champa Kingdom is under the control of Song Dynasty.
Champa was taken down, in terms of resources, there are two advantages:
[-]. Champa is extremely rich in natural products, which can be used to transfuse Song Dynasty.
[-]. The port of Champa is not far from Sanfoqi, it can be used as a supply point for the sea merchants of the Song Dynasty to go south, which greatly reduces the risk of South China Sea trade.
After that, there will inevitably be an upsurge of going to the South China Sea in various coastal roads.
It can be said that the battle of Cochin and Champa made the new faction of the Song Dynasty finally gain a firm foothold.
The people of the Great Song Dynasty have not yet realized that a new world has fully opened.
Chapter 582 Strategies for Managing the South China Sea (third update)
In May, Qin Hui returned to Tokyo from Huaidong.
When he entered Tokyo City, the first thing he did was to ask someone to buy a newspaper.
Sitting in the carriage, Qin Hui read several newspapers in one go.
He took a deep breath: Qian Yuqing actually defeated Champa!
When they returned to the mansion, Mrs. Wang was already waiting at the gate. Mrs. Wang was very happy to see Qin Hui.
It can be seen that she really loves Qin Hui.
After entering the house, I washed and changed again, and prepared pastries and tea.
Qin Hui said while putting on his clothes: "I read the newspaper just now, and Qian Yuqing defeated Champa."
"There is such a thing, I also saw it." Wang said.
"It seems that the Qian family has stood firm in the court." Qin Hui's tone was a bit special.
"But the Qian family's attitude towards us is very indifferent." Wang said, "We have visited several times, but all of them ended without a problem."
Qin Hui turned to look at the Wang family, and said, "What do you think the future of the Qian family will be like?"
Mrs. Wang thought for a while before saying: "Although Zhao Chen was deposed, the empress also gave birth to a dragon son, and the third prince Zhao Jin who is concubine Shende's. No matter what, it will not be the turn of the fifth prince."
Mrs. Wang put on a coat for Qin Hui, and said: "Besides, King Kang is now the Governor of Kaifeng. Didn't you also say that in the past two years, many officials have secretly made friends with King Kang?"
"But the development momentum of the Qian family should not be underestimated!" Qin Hui's tone was flat, but his face was somewhat cold.
In the past six months, he has been solving the problems of Huaidong and Jiangdong in the southeast. Naturally, there are many murders, and he has added a bit of murderous spirit.
"Isn't it just to take down a Champa Kingdom?" Wang said disdainfully, "That place is just a remote wasteland, an out-of-this-world place, and it's not worth mentioning. If Qian Yuqing takes it back to Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures, the fifth prince Zhao Chun will be the best!" has hope."
It is not surprising that the Wang family has this kind of thinking. After all, in the eyes of the ancients, let alone Zhancheng, Guangdong and Guangxi are wastelands.
Guangdong and Guangxi in the Song Dynasty were specially tailored farmhouse entertainment gathering places for political prisoners.
To the Song people, Champa is probably like a group of savages playing with mud.
Qin Hui sighed and said, "Your Majesty hasn't given any word about the crown prince."
"Why don't you let the people below test the tone again?"
Qin Hui didn't answer her question.
Wang reminded: "This time you have made great contributions to the New Deal in the southeast, and your prestige is at its peak. A few days ago, on your father's birthday, many officials came to congratulate you. Those officials who were alienated from you in the past all came."
"Let's go to the palace to face the saint." Qin Hui said, "The officials are still waiting for me."
"Aren't you going to eat some more?"
"Take it to eat on the road."
In any case, Qin Hui came back, and Wang seemed to feel much more at ease.
In May, Zhao Ning successively received the good news of the crusade against Jiaozhi and the good news of the crusade against Champa.
This news may be to ordinary people in Tokyo City, or even middle and low-level officials, it is equivalent to Master Wang regaining his homeland, nothing more.
For the Song people, who are the center of civilization in this era, the barbarians who wear animal skins and speak bird language really have nothing to pay attention to.
Unless the Sixteen States of Yanyun and the Hexi Corridor are recovered.
But for Zhao Ning, a traverser, this is the bridgehead to Sanfoqi.
It is said that it is five thousand miles from the nearest port, Guangzhou Port, to the South China Sea, to the Srivijaya, and to the so-called Malacca in later generations.
Assuming that a ship of this era travels 100 miles a day without encountering a headwind season, it will take 50 days to get there from Guangzhou.
If there is a downwind season, it can be shortened to one month.
Such a long distance, if there is no supply point in the middle, will bring terrible danger to sea transportation.
Let’s just say that Portugal in history, before entering India, also set up some supply points on the east coast of Africa, and explored eastward step by step before entering the Eastern Sea.
The location of Champa King's Capital is directly north of Samfo Qi. Setting up a supply point here will be of great help to the maritime merchants on Zhejiang, Fujian, and Guangnan East Roads.
For this reason, Zhao Ning was so excited that he stayed up all night.
Not long after, the chief executives arrived at Wende Hall.
In addition, there are Wang Zongyi, Minister of Taifu Temple, and Zhao Gou, Governor of Kaifeng Prefecture.
"My ministers, see your Majesty."
"There is no need to be polite."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
"Qin Xianggong, the journey is tiring, and I have to go to the palace, thank you." Zhao Ning said with concern.
"I just tried my best. There are still many problems in the southeast that have not been resolved. I feel ashamed in my heart."
Still not resolved?
If the main problem is not resolved, will Qin Hui return to Beijing?
Huaidong knocked out nearly ten million guan.
Zhao Ning said, "Let's get to the point."
Everyone immediately pricked up their ears.
"Wu Lin captured the capital of Jiaozhi's puppet dynasty, and Jiaozhi still has some remnants in the south, but it is no longer a climate." Zhao Ning looked at the map, "The royal family of Jiaozhi was killed by traitors, this is something I never thought of."
When he said this, he felt a little sorry for the Cochin royal family and hated the Cochin treacherous officials.
"Although the Li family betrayed the imperial court on their own, their crimes should be judged by the imperial court, not some treacherous officials committing regicide!" Zhao Ning said in a stern tone, "I have ordered that this matter should be investigated strictly, and no one will be spared." A rebellious person!"
"As for the king of Champa, his whereabouts are unknown. Champa has not yet established a new king. The original officials of Champa hope to join the Celestial Dynasty and become a local road of our Song Dynasty. What do you think?"
The scene was silent for a while, Qin Hui came out and said: "Your Majesty, I think that if the Annan Protectorate is re-established in Jiaozhi, Champa can be incorporated into it, and they will be under the jurisdiction of the Annan Protectorate together."
Wang Zonglin said: "I think it's wrong. The state systems of Champa and Jiaozhi are completely different. Merging rashly is not the best policy."
"Oh?" Zhao Ning looked at Wang Zongyi and said, "Tell me your opinion?"
He knew in his heart that Qian Yuqing belonged to Wang Zonglian's faction, and Qian Yuqing made great contributions in taking down Champa, while Qin Hui wanted to merge Champa into Annan Governor's Mansion, obviously to curb Qian Yuqing's influence on Champa.
This is not a difference of personal opinion, but a difference of personal positions and interests.
Wang Zonglin said: "This is Taifu Temple's policy on South China Sea trade, please read it through Your Majesty."
Wang Zonglin deeply understood the temper of this official Zhao. If you want to fight for your own interests in the court, you have to come up with a practical and feasible plan to show the official Zhao.
Like the group of rotten scholars in the past who blatantly yelled about the way of saints every day, but couldn't even write a specific policy theory, they have either had their heads chopped off by Zhao officials, or they have been removed by the power center.
Wang Zonglin took the opportunity to say: "This dynasty has quite a lot of business contacts with various countries in the South China Sea, but according to Qian Yuqing, the most frequent trader is the big cannibal, who has great influence on the tea, silk, ceramics, and cloth of this dynasty. needs."
"If you want to expand business and trade with the big cannibals in the South China Sea, you must set up a large port in Champa as a foothold for going south to the Three Buddhas."
When it comes to war, Wang Zongling is confused, but when it comes to making money, a profiteer like Wang Zongling immediately calculates the accounts clearly and clearly.
"In this way, opening up business in the South China Sea is not a problem at all."
Chapter 583 The Maritime Merchants of the Great Song Dynasty (first update)
Qin Hui said: "Although Xinzhou (the royal capital of Champa) was taken back by the imperial court, there are still a large number of remaining forces in the Champa Kingdom, and they may counterattack at any time. There is no need to set up additional military towns, which can save the court a lot of military expenditure in the South China Sea."
