This may not be true, but it definitely suits most people.
When Feng Jing returned to the court, Concubine Duan gave her a gift of classics, and Lu Huiqing suddenly came to visit. Duan Silian was so smart that he would not take these coincidences seriously.
This is exactly the same thing.
The whole thing went smoothly except that Zhao Xi was made uncomfortable by Concubine Duan's tenderness.
Feng Jing is definitely a great talent if he can pass the exam and be recruited by Fu Bi as his son-in-law.
In this way, Lu Huiqing and Feng Jing entered Prince Duan's Mansion in a grand manner, and took on the responsibility of Prince Duan's Mansion to learn the Wenhua of the Song Dynasty.
Duan Silian didn't think much about it, but he chose to accept the fact that he would still be the King of Dali and study the classics of the Song Dynasty.
He was already in exile, and even if he squeezed it, he realized that he didn't have a few liters of oil.
Zhao Xi was very depressed. Taking Dali was originally a straightforward matter, but he had to make so many twists and turns.
The ancestral law is another ancestral law.
My empire ends here... What are you doing blindly with a broken ax? Now I have to beat around the bush to block Youyou's mouth.
Of course, the actual situation in Dali is indeed not suitable to be taken down directly.
Since the previous dynasty, the entire territory of Dali, that is, Nanzhao of the previous dynasty, has not had any favorable impression of the Central Plains.
After several battles, the previous dynasty lost tens of thousands of soldiers, which also caused Nanzhao to reach the point where there was almost no rooster crow for thousands of miles.
A feud...
At this time, Lu Gongzhu felt deeply how big the resentment was.
Guangnan marched and the mining city attacked, annihilating the Gao family's troops besieging the mining city in one fell swoop, and forming a relatively complete control area in the entire northeast of Dali.
At this time, the army fell into a dilemma.
There is no way to report this to the court.
At the beginning, a decent team came and fired a shot... Those who were lucky enough not to die did not run away quickly, but knelt down and worshiped on the ground, muttering to God for a long time.
These are a group of uncivilized mountain people. After all, Lu Gongzhu is a scholar who has been taught by saints and sages, so naturally it is not easy to argue with some people in the mountains. If he just lets it go, he is a military commander, so he has to argue with the mountain people.
I thought that this would be the end of the matter, and other mountain people would be frightened and stop coming to seek death.
Contrary to expectations, I defeated an entire group of mountain people, but fell into endless harassment...
"Commander, the last general is willing to lead a new army to attack the thieves' lair..."
Cao Lin was really annoyed, and they were all annoyed.
Either a bamboo arrow was shot at night, or soldiers fell into a trap. From time to time, they even howled endlessly at night, or lit a fire to burn the mountains and forests around the camp.
In such a state, it is impossible to concentrate on fighting.
"A warrior knows how to kill and kill! Dali is a vassal state of the Song Dynasty, and the people of Dali are also the people of the Song Dynasty. How can we kill arbitrarily?"
"They are just uneducated mountain people. Is it possible that General Cao deliberately left Dali corpses everywhere?"
"We are the king's masters, teachers of morality and justice. We use emotion and reason to make them understand that our army is here to destroy the rebels, not to harm their livestock."
Fan Zhen was very disgusted with the generals shouting and shouting in the commander's tent! Do you really think this is a military camp? Even if it is a battlefield, the commander's tent is also a place where civil servants discuss military strategies, and the generals can only follow orders.
You lead a whole new army to attack the thieves' lair? Who do you think you are? You still advise the commander to make decisions.
"Envoy Fan Zhuan's sharp tongue can equal an army of 100,000 men! Then please ask Fan Zhuan to educate the mountain people of Dali like Sun Tzu, and welcome our master Wang!"
"The general is happy to save trouble like this. He also looks forward to the good news from Envoy Fan Zhuan. I hope he won't cry out loudly at night about enemy attacks..."
The entire Southern Expeditionary Army's command level, only Fan Zhen, a fool who didn't know about the official's plan, still had five or six people gesticulating here.
Cao Lin was not a traditional military commander, he was born into an official family and was a soldier. Without Fan Zhen as a transfer envoy, he did not have any awareness of the distinction between civil and military affairs in the commander-in-chief of Lu Gong.
"Commander Lu, a warrior is so arrogant! When did the country allow such a situation? Come on, come on, take this officer out and behead him! I still don't believe it!"
Fan Zhen was a little angry, and even his voice changed. He pointed at Cao Lin and shouted with trembling hands.
However, he found that no one moved in the entire commander's tent, and even the commander's personal soldiers looked at him like a monkey.
"Shuai Lu..."
"Okay! This is the handsome tent of my Lord Lu! Besides, General Cao also makes suggestions for the army, so what's the crime?"
"Don't just kill this and that at every turn! General Cao was born in the guard camp and is in the emperor's army. He is the main general of this southern expedition. How can you kill him at will?"
This is not the first time there has been a quarrel.
It turns out that they were all accommodating each other and weren't so sharp.
The army has only advanced less than fifty miles in the past month, and everyone is upset.
Fan Zhen was bored in this place. Let alone having a banquet, he didn't even have a book to read. He felt uncomfortable hanging around with a group of warriors all day long.
Cao Lin was harassing the mountain people like this, wasting gunpowder, and had no results.
Although the mountain people's spears and bamboo arrows will make a sound when they hit the armor, the key is that they can't kill people and make them disgusting.
Mr. Lu is even more troubled! It was his first time as the head coach to lead the army. It should have been a devastating war, but because of these harassments, it turned into a protracted war.
How to earn the trust of officials? How to complete the tasks of the court?
It’s already this time, and you’re still arguing about these useless things. What a waste!
The key is, King Yan is still watching!
Zhao Shu would not get involved in these quarrels. His father had told him before leaving to watch more, listen more and talk less... But Zhao Shu also felt that he could go straight to the robber's lair.
Not to mention the soldiers of the old guard camp, even these newcomers can take down these mountain people at any time.
I don’t understand why Lu Shuai didn’t make a decision!
Lu Shuai is a person whom Dad trusts, so he should have some considerations, and maybe there are other secret orders.
What would happen if officials led the army?
Lu Gongzhu has been thinking about this issue these days.
I have gone on several expeditions with the officials, and I have never seen them encounter any difficulties. It seems that everything is within their expectations and they are confident about everything.
But the harassment from these mountain people is so annoying!
"Commander, someone is coming from Bianliang..."
"Huh? Who?"
"Commander, I am the Imperial City Secretary who has found out and brought with him a hundred and ten soldiers of Prince Duan of Dali."
What do you mean? The Imperial City Secretary brought the personal soldiers of King Duan of Dali to command the tent?
What does it mean to be in the midst of strategizing and win a decisive victory thousands of miles away? The official is, even if he does not report the plight of the army, the official can still predict it.
No, someone has been sent to solve the problem.
"Commander, there is an official order that no one is allowed to restrict the movement of Prince Duan's soldiers after they arrive at the army camp. Provide logistical materials to Prince Duan's soldiers as much as possible to ensure their movement."
"Whether and how the army will advance will be determined by the commander-in-chief based on the intelligence of Prince Duan's soldiers. It can only be a reference. The safety of the frontline troops is the top priority in everything!"
This is a colloquial metaphor, and Lu Gongzhu clearly understands that this tone is indeed official.
