Shen Tang, Liu Xiangling, the iron-blooded traitor in the Southern Song Dynasty Chapter 994: The success of persuasion and the new year of the Song Dynasty
Chapter 994: The success of persuasion and the new year of the Song Dynasty
Chapter 994: Persuasion is successful, the Song Dynasty changes year
"Your Majesty, this is wrong!"
Gao Liangcheng shook his head and said!
"One of the reasons why the Song Dynasty was able to win was because it borrowed troops from the Jin Kingdom. When Tubo first entered Chengdu, the Song Dynasty had no power to fight. Then the Song Dynasty sent troops twice to increase its numbers, but it was still bloodbathed by the Tubo! Until
It was only after the Jin Kingdom's 60,000 cavalry entered Chengdu that Tubo was defeated."
"The second reason is the bad relationship between Tubo and local tribes!"
"At the beginning, Tubo had reached some cooperation with the local tribes. However, in the subsequent process, the local tribes became the sword in the hands of Tubo. This also caused dissatisfaction among some tribes and caused Tubo to lose many opportunities.
.”
"Thirdly, the Tubo army entered Chengdu and relied only on looting, with almost no food and grass supplies, making the local people hate Tibet extremely!"
"And we can completely avoid these disadvantages. Moreover, many tribes around Ziqi, and even many state officials in the Song Dynasty, have extremely close ties with us! We don't even need to fight.
Successfully entered the territory of the Song Dynasty, and then gradually swallowed up the large territory of Guangnan West Road!"
"With the large territory on Guangnan West Road, the national strength of our Dali Kingdom will rapidly increase. At that time, some benefits will be given to the local tribes and people, and they will naturally be willing to become our Dali Kingdom's subjects! At that time, even if the Song Dynasty really dispatches
When the army comes to attack, we are not afraid at all.
And as long as we have this springboard, whether we suppress the Yue Li Kingdom or continue to erode the Song Dynasty, our Dali Kingdom will be in an invincible position! Your Majesty, you will also become the emperor of Dali Kingdom through the ages!"
"In fact, if there are changes in the future, we may not be able to take over the Central Plains Dynasty!"
Looking at the confident and ambitious Prime Minister, Duan Zhengxing felt a little powerless. He really didn't understand. Even if he really succeeded, or even took over the Central Plains, what was the point?
Moreover, the increase in land and the number of people also means that government affairs will become busier...
Why!
Duan Zhengxing sighed deeply in his heart, and really wanted to become a monk right away! However, his descendants are still young now, and if he were to become a monk and leave the family alone, he didn't know what kind of chaos Dali would be like.
Although it is not interesting to be an emperor, after all, the Duan family's dynasty must be passed down.
Otherwise, I am afraid that Buddha will also blame himself...
"Didn't the Prime Minister plan to trade with the Song Dynasty before?"
Duan Zhengxing asked.
Gao Liangcheng nodded, "If we can open up mutual markets, firstly, it can enhance our national strength, and secondly, it can allow us to penetrate more into the territory of the Song Dynasty. Unfortunately, now that the Emperor of the Song Dynasty has refused, then we can only send troops."
.”
"Didn't the envoy say that Song Dynasty is considering it?"
Duan Zhengxing said doubtfully.
Gao Liangcheng sneered, "Your Majesty, this is just an excuse from the Song Dynasty!"
"Your Majesty, you don't need to worry too much! Now that our army in Dali is strong, it is only logical to conquer the Song Dynasty.
And, even if we really fail, we can still curl up and continue to nurture our national strength.
The Jin Kingdom in the north is the real enemy of the Song Dynasty, and the Song Dynasty will never really fall out with us unless it is absolutely necessary!"
"We and Yue Li have plundered the Song Dynasty many times before. However, even if the Song Dynasty sent a large army, they would only drive us out of the border. At worst, we would ask for surrender and the matter would be settled."
"If the Song Dynasty really went to war with us, why would the Jin Kingdom just sit back and watch?
At that time, not just a small area, but the entire Song Dynasty is in danger of destruction. As long as the royal family of the Song Dynasty is not a fool, this will never happen! Therefore, your Majesty, you can rest assured, as long as we do not break through the Song Dynasty
The bottom line, whether we win or lose, is under our control! Now, Gao Liguo has deployed 20,000 troops in Shicheng County! We still have nearly 30,000 troops in the Shanchan Department that can be mobilized at any time! In this battle, our Dali country will win without losing!
"
Looking at Mr. Xiangguo with a firm look on his face, Duan Zhengxing felt helpless to the extreme.
He knew that even if he continued to refuse, Gao Liangcheng would still not give up and would definitely find another way to convince himself.
In fact, if the stalemate continues, it may affect the relationship between himself and the Prime Minister.
"Why!"
Duan Zhengxing sighed slightly, then nodded and said, "In that case, the national destiny of our Dali country will be entrusted to the hands of the Prime Minister! All the soldiers and generals in Dali can be dispatched by the Prime Minister on his own. I only hope that this time, I, Dali, will
The country can win..."
After hearing Duan Zhengxing's words, Gao Liangcheng's face finally showed a hint of joy!
Gao Liangcheng is a man with ambition and ideals! Becoming a powerful prime minister is not his end, because all the previous prime ministers of Dali Kingdom are named Gao! However, if he imitates his ancestor Gao Shengtai and usurps the throne, he can succeed.
, However, not only will it weaken the national power of Dali, but if it fails, it will also become the so-called rebellious ministers and traitors!
Now, although he is not the emperor, his power is not less than that of the emperor, and is even slightly more powerful.
So, the only way to not usurp the throne but to strengthen the clan and defeat the ancestors is to open up territory for the Dali Kingdom! When the time comes, he will naturally leave his name in history and become a prime minister through the ages!
"My lord, I will live up to your majesty's great trust! Your majesty, rest in peace. I will immediately summon Jiu Shuang to discuss the dispatch of troops. After the agreement is reached, I will report to your majesty!"
The official system of Dali Kingdom was inherited from Nanshao Kingdom, and Nanshao Kingdom originally learned from the Three Provinces and Six Ministries of the Tang Dynasty! However, these three provinces and six ministries later gradually evolved into the Nine Shuang system.
For example, Mu Shuang is in charge of military affairs, Ci Shuang is in charge of etiquette, Punishing Shuang is in charge of punishment, Quan Shuang is in charge of official positions, etc. The chief officer of each Shuang is called the Qingping officer, and there are also chiefs or generals who hold concurrent posts!
So, at the end of the first month of the first year of Qiandao, the Song Dynasty court received an urgent report from Guangnan West Road! The Dali Kingdom sent 20,000 troops to invade the land of Ziqi! In just three days, Ziqi fell! The Dali Kingdom's troops were divided into two.
, one of the 15,000 soldiers and horses, led by Dali General Gao Liguo, turned south and approached Temo Road. The other group of 5,000 soldiers and horses, led by deputy general Luo Lifu, attacked Moju and prepared to enter the hinterland of Yongzhou.
!
Well... let me explain here, our Emperor Zhao Shen of the Song Dynasty changed his reign name!
When he first came to the throne, Zhao Shen was ambitious and wanted nothing more than to regain his homeland and restore the glory of the Song Dynasty.
Therefore, the title of the year was Longxing! However, he was undefeated in a battle with the Jin Kingdom and had many domestic constraints, which made Zhao Shen not only see the power of the Jin Kingdom, but also a bit powerless! Moreover, in the second year of Longxing,
It was a year filled with disasters, first the Tibetan invasion, and then the five floods in the northwest! It can be said that there were both natural and man-made disasters.
Therefore, Zhao Shen was moved and changed Longxing into a main road!
God is the one who does it! The way is the way of heaven! I, Zhao Shen, follow the will of heaven and do things. I should be allowed to live a peaceful life for a few days...
