Chapter 1194 Wu Haogu is leaving?
After seeing Xiao Sesse away, Ganzhou City welcomed the Bohai people and the envoys of the Jurchens.
The envoy of the Bohai people was named Gao Qingming. He was an elder of the Gao Yongchang clan. He was originally a high-ranking official of the Liao Kingdom. Now he has defected to Gao Yongchang, who claims to be the marshal of the Great Bohai Kingdom, and has been appointed as the chief of the Marshal's Mansion.
The envoy of the Jurchens was Wu Haogu's old acquaintance Alihe. He arrived with him, Yu Yongfu, the dean of the Jurchen Academy, sent by the doctoral troupe to give birth to Yu Yongfu.
Alihe and Yu Yongfu brought the latest changes north of Tongzhou to Wu Haogu.
In the past few months, Aguda did not wait in Huanglong Mansion, but took advantage of the opportunity of the Liao army's main force concentrating on the Liaodong Peninsula to conquer cities and territory along Huanglong Mansion and the Huntong River.
Now, a series of prefectures such as Huanglong Prefecture, Ningjiang Prefecture, Xiangzhou, Weizhou, Xinzhou, Yizhou, Pennzhou, and Changchun Prefecture have been occupied.
In addition, the Haidong Jurchens, headed by the Wanyan tribe of Yelanlu, are also actively conquering cities and territory, and have already captured Binfu, Fengzhou, Luzhou, Fengzhou, Zhengzhou, Huanzhou and other places.
If it were replaced by a map of later generations, the Jurchens would have almost included the entire Jilin Province, half of Heilongjiang Province and the Russian Coastal Krai.
With such a large area of territory, the Liao Kingdom was defeated by Wu Haogu again. Aguda felt that it was time to establish a country after his great achievements.
Out of respect for Wu Haogu, the "leader", he sent Alihe to discuss whether to call King of Jin or simply Emperor of Jin?
Gao Yongchang's envoy Gao Qingming had a similar purpose, and he also came to discuss the restoration of the Bohai people. However, there was another task, which was to discuss with Wu Haogu about dividing the territory of Liaodong.
According to Gao Yongchang's intention, the territory of the Liaodong Peninsula and western Liaoning can belong to Youzhou. The Liaohe River Basin to Tongzhou are all lands of the Bohai people. The territory is not large, but it covers the richest agricultural area in the northeast of this era, with no less than 30 million acres of black soil arable land!
There are no fertilizers, pesticides and so on these days. Black soil, coupled with the heavy snow and severe cold in Liaodong in winter, and the more suitable summer temperature (it is not too cool in summer), makes the yield per mu of black soil in Liaodong far exceeds that of ordinary dry land in Yan land. It can generally reach a high yield of 400 to 500 kilograms! If these 30 million mu are fully utilized, it will be hundreds of millions of stones of grain a year. Even if the grass field rotation method is used, you can harvest 500 to 60 million stones a year. It is enough to solve the food problem of the entire Republic...
Moreover, these black soils can also meet the land requirements of 150,000 new citizens of the Republic!
If we include the land in the Liaodong Peninsula and western Liaoning, more than 50 million mu of arable land can be collected. It is more than enough to resettle 200,000 citizens (including some knight households).
The grain produced every year can also exceed 70 million stones!
In addition, because of the convenient transportation of sea routes and Liaohe River, the grain produced in Liaodong can be easily transported to Hebei, Jingdong, and even Lianghuai and Jiangnan.
In this way, Liaodong can become the pillar of the entire republic!
Such a territory, Wu Haogu, who had already decided to establish a country, had no reason to hand it over to Gao Yongchang for his rule.
In Ganzhou City, in the lobby of the General Administration of the Republican Army (the Li Palace where he and Xiao Sesse met with each other), Wu Haogu just listened quietly to Gao Qingming and told the Bohai people about the ideals and determination of founding the country.
When he heard Gao Yongchang's national name "Dayuan" prepared for the future Bohai country, he was surprised.
"What? Great Yuan?"
"That's right, this country's name comes from the "Book of Changes"'s 'Great Qianyuan, the beginning of all materials'. This Qianyuan is the beginning of the way of heaven, which is the so-called law of heaven. Therefore, the name of "Yuan" is consistent with the theory of heaven. Our Bohai Great Yuan Kingdom will also follow the law of heaven, combine the three religions, and treat the four directions with benevolence and righteousness."
It's all in one go!
Wu Haogu thought: The people of Bohai found a country name from the Book of Changes, but they still believed in Buddhism that killed the Great Liao Kingdom.
"I wonder who will respect your great Yuan Kingdom?" Wu Haogu asked, "Is the king's surname Gao or the surname Da? Should he be the king or the emperor?"
"The Marshal re-created the Bohai Sea and made great contributions. He has received the support of the Zhuyou surname. He is naturally the lord of the Dayuan country. As for being an emperor or a king, the Marshal hopes to advance and retreat with the King and Dubojili. He either proclaimed himself emperor or became king together. In the future, the Three Kingdoms will become brothers and alliances with each other."
"Haha, then call him emperor!" Wu Haogu said nothing, but Aguda's envoy Alihe Ren spoke first, "The emperor is bigger than the king, so if you want to do it, you will be bigger. Moreover, Yelu Yanxi is the emperor (the Liao Kingdom has not announced the death of Yanxi yet), and they are all erratic. If Marshal Gao and King Yan do not become emperors, wouldn't they be shorter than Yelu Yanxi's fellow? So let's be emperors together!"
Become an emperor together? Wu Haogu's face was slightly gloomy, and Alihe Ren actually agreed with Gao Qingming!
It seems that the Jurchens and the Bohai people have already, or are about to collude with each other...
Now the Northeast is the Three Kingdoms, and Youzhou is the strongest, so it is naturally Cao Wei! Then the Jurchens and Bohai are Sun and Liu, and sooner or later they will have to unite to fight against Cao!
Fortunately, my family sacrificed her lust and slept with Empress Xiao, otherwise Youzhou would be too isolated.
"I neither call myself king nor emperor!" Wu Haogu said lightly.
In the past period of time, his identity was a bit blurry. On the one hand, the world was the king of Youzhou, and the republic. On the other hand, Wu Haogu was also a vassal of the Song Dynasty, and was the King of Yan.
Therefore, Wu Haogu was a king of the republic, and his status was a bit messy. It was also easy to misunderstand that the world was a foreplay of being a prince, just foreplay of being an emperor.
Now that Youzhou has the conditions for the founding of the country, Wu Haogu must certainly have a clear position.
If you are not a king, not an emperor, you will be dedicated to the country and the people! Well, it is basically Yao and Shun today.
No, this path is more noble than Yao and Shun. Because Yao and Shun represent abdication. The premise of abdication is to family and the world is first of Yao and then give it to Shun.
Wu Haogu did not admit that the situation in Youzhou is his own! Youzhou is a citizen, and Wu Haogu is the leader elected by the Senate for citizen election.
Therefore, there is no saying of abdication!
Of course, Wu Haogu did this because he was very enlightened and had a certainty. His soul belonged to the newcomer of the Four-Haves who grew up under the Red Banner! He had no feudal ideas at all, so how could he want to be a reactionary emperor?
However, he was not a party member in his previous life, so he was not a GCister and still liked the private property of capitalism very much.
In his opinion, only when the world is public can one be private. Public and private must be completely separated and cannot be confused.
The so-called respect for private property must be based on the ruler himself owning private property. For example, the Empress Dowager Xiao, who had just left Wu Haogu, had no private property. If the power is there, the power will prosper, and if the power is lost, the power will be destroyed.
If the ruler is like this, what else can there be a concept of respecting private property?
Moreover, in Wu Haogu's opinion, it is not good for his descendants to build a family, country and the world. Not to mention that the descendants of the two Han dynasties under the imperial system generally ended in miserable consequences. Even if the dynasties they established can last forever, they would be "joy alone" rather than "joy all". The ones who can truly enjoy supreme power are only one of the many descendants (only one at the same time), and others are prisoners of power. Maybe there will be a series of human tragedies that will kill each other...
As for the steadily developing constitutional monarchy, haha, Wu Haogu would not have such fantasies.
Because there are too many changes in Chinese dynasties, the imperial power has long lost its sacredness. Once a dynasty without sacredness loses its power, it will be the fish on the chopping board of the political enemy.
It is precisely because of this reason that the emperor must protect his power at all costs, even if he sacrifices the fundamental interests of the country and the nation!
So in a sense, the emperor is the biggest traitor!
"My Youzhou is the world of citizens, and the world is also a public," Wuhao Gudao, "So I will not be an emperor, but only serve as the rule of the senate and the Senate. As for the specific name, I have to wait until the war in Liaodong is over and the Senate will be held to discuss it."
Hearing Wu Haogu's statement, not only Alihe and Gao Qingming frowned, but also Ma Renwang and Zhao Zhongge frowned slightly.
Wu Haogu's stance of resolutely not being the emperor made them feel very embarrassed.
Logically speaking, if Wu Haogu is not the leader of the world, then Youzhou will become a "shareholding country". A veteran family like the Zhao family and the Ma family are the major shareholders. Ordinary citizens are small shareholders. Regardless of size, shareholders are all masters. The Zhao and Ma families are still masters, so their interests are more guaranteed.
But the two of them always felt that there was no emperor above and it was very uncomfortable...
"Since... is in power?" Alihe asked tentatively.
"Yes, just call it ruling."
As a preliminary preparation for the establishment of the Republic, Wu Haogu's title also began to change.
Now that military orders have been issued, the army no longer calls Wu Haogu the king, but instead calls him ruling.
"Well, since the ruling government is unwilling to become emperor with Dubojilie and Marshal Gao. Then my family Dubojilie will become emperor with Marshal Gao. I think there will be no objection to the ruling government, right?"
Humph, what a Guda!
How could Wu Haogu not understand the Jurchens' thoughts? Aguda admitted that Gao Yongchang was the Emperor of the Yuan Dynasty, not recognizing the strength of the Bohai people, but was giving Gao Yongchang a lust, so that Gao Yongchang could be arrogant and compete with Youzhou for territory, and eventually triggering a war.
At that time, the Great Jin Kingdom of the Jurchens will be able to reap profits, and maybe even cut a knife in the wealthy Liaohe River Basin!
It seems that my family must destroy Gao Yongchang as soon as possible and be prepared to have a conflict with the Jurchens.
"Of course I don't object." Wu Haogu smiled, "The three of us are united in opposition to Liao, and now we each establish our own country, which is a perfect success. If you two want to proclaim yourself emperor, I should go back to Tianjin to Kaisenate Conference... There is no precedent to establish a republic, so we have to discuss it carefully!"
When Gao Qingming and Alihe Ren heard that Wu Haogu was leaving, they both breathed a sigh of relief.
It’s good if the big tiger leaves. Let’s go and fight for the world with the Song Dynasty. Don’t worry about Liaodong affairs...
