Zhao Xi thought about it and felt that what Yu Yunwen said made sense.
If you don't go out and let the people of the Ming Dynasty go out and do things on their own, if anything happens, it will be your own problem, the people of the Ming Dynasty. How can you bring trouble to the Southern Song Dynasty?
You dug up other people's ancestral graves and destroyed their jobs. Isn't it natural for people to be angry and dig up your river embankments to retaliate against you?
If the Southern Song Dynasty succeeds, it will gain blood, and if it loses, the Southern Song Dynasty will not lose.
These refugees from the Ming Dynasty did not have much value other than their political value. They could increase the labor force of hundreds of households.
But they were industrious and did not distinguish between grains and crops. They could not farm well. Other industries in the Southern Song Dynasty were also very involved. These people were really not of much use.
When they came, many of them brought some gold and silver with them to pay for their settlement in the Southern Song Dynasty. However, a lot of this money was taken away by the local government. After arriving in Lin'an, they were basically in a state of needing government assistance. .
Of course, Zhao Yan was too lazy to help them and spend money to feed and drink them. They could not provide any economic value to the Southern Song Dynasty, so it would be a good choice to get rid of them after the publicity fever passed.
This Yu Yunwen was a master at shirking the blame, and Zhao Min was very happy when he did so. .
So Zhao Hao whispered: "This matter is of great importance and cannot be known to any outsiders. You go to those Ming people personally to handle the matter. Be careful not to let outsiders know, not even your colleagues in the Privy Council. Do you understand?"
"I know, I will do it immediately!"
After receiving Zhao Xun's approval, Yu Yunwen strengthened his confidence.
After leaving the palace, Yu Yunwen set out for the places where people who fled from the Ming Dynasty lived.
Along the way, Yu Yunwen thought a lot.
In fact, this matter was like breaking the boat for him. He decided to put himself in a certain death position, so that he could charge into the battle without hesitation and do something meaningful for the Song Dynasty instead of continuing. Unexamined.
If you do something that harms Tianhe, you will definitely die a good death. When this matter is going on, no matter the slightest sign of trouble, it may be discovered.
Even if it is not discovered during the process, people in the Ming Dynasty may find clues afterwards, or simply transfer the conflict to the Southern Song Dynasty, and the Southern Song Dynasty will definitely have to pay the price.
He was going to be the price.
But before that price was paid, Yu Yunwen decided to promote the anti-corruption campaign in the Southern Song Dynasty with a fatal determination, and took away a group of corrupt officials before his death, leaving a glimmer of hope for the Southern Song Dynasty. As for how he died, he didn't care .
Regardless of whether he was killed by his own people or sent to the Ming Dynasty by Zhao Xun to be killed, it was all death. Before death, he had to go crazy and try to take away more people.
He felt that any reformer should have such courage. Wang Anshi's failure back then may have been because he did not have the courage to break the boat. If he had such courage, he might not be able to make a big breakthrough.
Since ancient times, those who engage in reform have always had bad luck. It doesn't matter. The key is that the reform is really implemented. In that case, it doesn't matter even if it means death.
In today's civil and military dynasties, it is almost impossible to find people with such determination. Even Chen Kangbo, who is dedicated to serving the country, will inevitably not have his own small thoughts. He can see this clearly.
Although Chen Kangbo is mature and prudent, he does not have the courage to change the status quo. Like many people, he is addicted to the status quo and feels that the status quo is very good.
But the current situation is very bad. If there is a big problem, it must be solved. If it cannot be solved, the Southern Song Dynasty will have no power to fight back in the face of the Ming Dynasty's offensive.
With this determination, Yu Yunwen started his own battle.
He felt that it was most important to keep this matter secret, so not many people could know about it from beginning to end, including the executor, so he asked Zhao Min for some eunuchs from the palace to handle the matter.
Zhao Min was also willing to cooperate with him, so he arranged for twenty eunuchs to help him.
The twenty eunuchs were all young and illiterate. Their purpose was not to help Yu Yunwen make plans, but to help him bring those who had fled the Ming Dynasty to a safe place for his personal questioning.
The matter is of great importance, and everyone involved in the matter must be questioned by Yu Yunwen individually and receive his confirmation individually.
Everything has to be done personally so that he can feel at ease.
So for a while, Yu Yunwen worked in the office during the day to formulate an action plan to destroy the Yellow River embankment of the Ming Dynasty. At night, with the cooperation of the eunuchs, he interviewed people from the Ming Dynasty in dark and secret corners of the city, tempting them with benefits and asking them to join him. action plan.
As long as you join and achieve your goals, you will be able to receive material supplies from the Song Dynasty, get rewards, get houses and land, and live the same life as in the past, without being as worried as you are now.
And when they showed hesitation or timidity, Yu Yunwen would threaten them intentionally or unintentionally.
The Song Dynasty will not spend money to provide you with food and clothing for no reason. You must become useful people and be useful to the Song Dynasty, and then the Song Dynasty will spend money to provide you with food and clothing.
Do you understand?
These landowners and gentry who traveled thousands of miles and endured hardships from Guanzhong and Hedong to the Southern Song Dynasty were so regretful that their intestines turned green.
If I had known that if I stayed in the Ming Dynasty, even if I handed over my family property, I would still be able to get a full compensation for the past, be able to continue living in my hometown, and enjoy the peace and stability brought by the Ming Dynasty.
Now the money is gone, the family business is gone, and the family is gone, and they are forced to go back and destroy the Yellow River embankment...
What is this?
The past masters and current refugees really don't know why fate treats them like this.
Yu Yunwen was very efficient in his work. He quickly formulated a preliminary action plan, and then began to think about some details, including how to avoid the Ming Dynasty border defenses, how to avoid Ming Dynasty patrols, how to obtain supplies, etc. .
After a preliminary understanding of the Ming Dynasty, Yu Yunwen found that the Ming Dynasty had relatively strict management of population mobility and should have a relatively complete household registration system. For such a mature and mature country, the sudden appearance of unknown illegal households is unwelcome. And dangerous.
How to send such a group of people to the Ming Kingdom requires careful consideration and thinking.
But what Yu Yunwen didn't expect was that he spent all his efforts and initially completed the content design of this action plan on February 10th, and was preparing to make further detailed adjustments.
But on the morning of February 11th, the outline of this action plan was delivered to Su Changsheng.
