Chapter 809
Liu Shen was woken up from his sleep.
"What! King Wumeng is dead!" Liu Shen was stunned for a moment.
"Angel, leave quickly."
Liu Shen immediately started to get dressed.
When he went out, the palace was already brightly lit, and footsteps and voices could be heard in front of him.
"Quick! Over there! Don't let a fly go!"
Liu Shen followed the person in front of him and turned around, quickly walking towards the back.
As soon as he walked around the corridor, he saw those people holding torches arriving at the place where he originally lived and surrounding it.
Liu Shen was shocked and broke into a cold sweat.
"Quick, angel, this way, go to the back, we have prepared the carriage."
Liu Shen could only follow this man now, he had no choice.
When he reached the back of the palace, he vaguely heard someone chasing him.
"Quick! This way!"
The back door was opened, and there was indeed a carriage outside.
"Hurry! Get in the car!" A woman in the carriage whispered.
Liu Shi had no choice but to get in the car.
The carriage quickly entered the mountain road behind the mountain and disappeared into the night.
Liu Shen's fluctuating heart gradually calmed down, and he realized that this woman turned out to be a teenage girl.
"Who are you?"
"My name is Roy, and Luo Yun is my grandfather."
"It turns out he is the county lord. I am disrespectful and disrespectful."
"It's no longer the case. My uncle killed his father and betrayed the empire."
"Then why do you want to help me?"
"Because both my father and my grandfather hope to slowly integrate us into the Celestial Empire. It was my father who noticed my uncle's conspiracy and asked me to take you away."
"I see."
On the ninth day of April, Liu Shen returned to Wuning County, where the Changning Army was located.
At this time, Fan Zongyin, the Southwest Xuanfu envoy, was stationed in Wuning County.
A few dozen miles north of Wuning County is Luzhou, and to the south are the forces of the Luo Ghost Kingdom, including the Yixi tribe, the Yiniang tribe, the Mangbu tribe, the Atou tribe, the Wusa tribe and other Luo ghost kingdom tribes.
Liu even went to the Xuanfu Division and met Fan Zongyin, who told him in detail his experience in the Wumeng tribe.
After hearing this, all the generals of the Song army were shocked.
"Shuai Fan, if Luo dares to betray the imperial court, please let the last general lead an army of 10,000 to go south, and Na Luo Jing will be killed." The speaker was Mu Cong, deputy commander of the Changning Army.
"No, no." Fan Zongyin thought carefully, "This must be a premeditated plan by the Dali Kingdom. We cannot force the use of troops against the Luo family now, otherwise the Luo family will completely fall to Dali."
Fan Zongyin is right, this is indeed Gao Liangcheng's strategy.
In fact, when Duan Zhengxing, the crown prince of the Dali Kingdom, raised the civil commercial dispute in the court, as a powerful official of the Dali Kingdom, Gao Liangcheng knew what medicine he was selling in his gourd.
Naturally, we also know who is behind this.
Gao Liangcheng was a very talented person during the Dali Kingdom. Both his administrative and military talents were very high.
The thirty-seven tribes of Dali rebelled and killed Gao Liangcheng's uncle. The young Gao Liangcheng took over the important task and put down the thirty-seven tribes' rebellion.
Many people of his age, let alone taking on the important task of provoking a country and sending troops to quell chaos, would probably fail to get to the point when reporting on a job.
Now that he knows what Duan Zhengxing wants to do and what Da Song wants to do, he naturally will not sit still and wait for death.
He was not afraid of the Song army, even if the Song Dynasty destroyed Jiaozhi, he would not be afraid.
Because this area in the southwest is indeed a big pit.
Even though the Tang army was as powerful as the Tang Dynasty, it was never able to conquer this place.
There is no other reason. Just open the map and see what the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau is like.
As for the Luo Ghost Kingdom, which existed northeast of Dali, it strategically served as a military buffer.
If the Song army attacked the Luo Ghost Kingdom, other tribes in the Luo Ghost Kingdom would unite to fight against the Song Dynasty.
Even if the Song army finally defeats the Luo Ghost Kingdom and reaches Dali, the Song army will be greatly weakened and will be unable to fight the Dali army again.
The Dali Kingdom in the 12th century was not weak. Its territory was very vast, including the Yunnan-Guizhou region, parts of Laos, and Myanmar.
Naturally, such a vast place was not gained with a kiss, but with a sword.
Liu Shen said: "Fan Shuai, I think we should immediately send people to the Luo tribes to meet with the leaders of each tribe, expose Luo Jing's crimes, and win over the tribes. Even if some people don't want to believe us, there will definitely be people who will stand by us."
This side."
"You make sense!" Fan Zongyin was not in a hurry. He came here not really to be the main force.
His task was to attract the main force of the Dali Kingdom to move northward, so that Dali's rear could follow. Wu Lin went north from the south and appeared in the Dali's rear.
Wu Lin is the main force in fighting Dali!
Fan Zongyin immediately arranged for people to go to various Luo tribes.
On April 13, the ninth year of Jingkang, Jiading Prefecture received a military order from Fan Zongyin, and Jiading sent two thousand troops south to attack the Xuhen Department on the border of Dali Kingdom.
At the same time, on April 15, Lizhou also received an order from Fan Zongyin, and two thousand troops went south to cooperate with the Jiading army and advance into Jianchang Mansion of Dali State.
Since then, the battle between Song Dynasty and Li Dynasty has officially begun.
On April 23, the news that Luo Jing was promoted to the position of leader of Luo's Ghost Kingdom spread back to Yangzui City, the capital of Dali.
"Good! Good!" He Shitang, Minister of the Ministry of War, exclaimed, "This is still the trick of the Prime Minister. I know that Luo Jing is very ambitious and has always been at odds with his father's ideas!"
Gao Liangcheng said: "With our troops entering the Wumeng tribe to help Luo Jing, he will surely be able to secure his position. He has now issued orders to various ministries, saying that the Song envoy killed his father. Before we can take action, Luo Jing's ghost will
The general and the Song army will fight first."
On April 26, another news reached the capital of Dali: the Song army in Jiading captured the Xuhen tribe and captured the leader of the Xuhen tribe.
The northern defense line of Jianchang Prefecture in Dali was quickly torn apart by the Song army. The Song army armed with powerful crossbows fought their way down the mountains and rivers.
At the same time, there was news that the Lizhou Song Army had also advanced to Qiongbu Prefecture.
These two pieces of news caused great shock in Dali Kingdom.
The astonishing combat effectiveness displayed by the Song army in the first battle surprised He Shitang, the Minister of War in Dali.
Wen Song turned pale with fright. He trembled and said in shock, "Is the Song Army really coming here?"
He Shitang smiled and said: "You don't have to worry too much. The Prime Minister has already made arrangements. Troops and horses have been deployed in all parts of Jianchang Prefecture. The Song army only attacked the border area. Do they dare to come in deep?"
April 27, Qiongbu Prefecture.
After the Lizhou Song Army crossed the mountain in front, the scouts discovered a group of Dali troops in the mountains and forests.
Soon, the two sides started fighting with bows, arrows and crossbows in the jungle on the mountain road.
On April 29th, emergency troop deployment orders from Mu Kui, the governor of Jianchang Prefecture in Dali, were sent to the Baosai, Luolan, Wudeng, Lianglin, Adu, and Fengpa tribes.
