Whether it is said that Chai Daguan is a hypocritical person or a woman of kindness, he really has no intention of taking the initiative to target the Song Dynasty.
Not to mention taking the initiative to raise troops in the Song Dynasty, he did not forget the main purpose of his soul traveling to the Water Margin world.
If we can allow him to gather his luck in peace and practice the Tiangang Earth Evil Star Observation smoothly, then there will be no problem for him to stay in the main village of Liangshan.
Once you take the initiative to raise troops, you will cause a military disaster and affect countless people. There are so many causes and effects, and you don't know how much energy and effort it will take to offset them.
Therefore, he has never taken the initiative to provoke the imperial court...
At least, he doesn't want to start the troubled world by himself.
Regardless of whether it was hypocritical or not, that's what he thought and did.
Otherwise, with the strength of the main village in Liangshan, there would be no problem in attacking Bianliang City directly.
Even if Yue Fei at his peak appears at this time, can he be able to withstand the strong man who is tempered by starlight?
As time goes by, the first-class masters of Liangshan Village will all become strong ones with starlight tempered bodies. What will they be like by then?
At the moment, our troops are just taking advantage of the trend to capture the Sixteenth Prefecture of Yanyun.
It was not until the official army of the Song Dynasty completely collapsed that the men and horses of Liangshan's main village were boldly dispatched, sweeping across the sixteen states of Yanyun in one fell swoop.
At least, he has nothing to be afraid of in this regard...
Of course, the cowardly monarchs and ministers will definitely not think so, and Chai Daguan will not care at all.
Otherwise, the Yanyun Governor's Office would not have been established so quickly, and it would have been a shame to slap the coward in the face.
But so what?
Who is so cowardly that such a good opportunity can collapse?
As for the Liao Kingdom, they have too much to take care of themselves. How can they still have the ability to retake the sixteen states of Yanyun?
Here, the Yanyun Governor's Office is operating rapidly, and a large number of grassroots officials trained in the village are scattered everywhere. With the cooperation of the local Liangshan garrison, strict to severe military control is implemented.
The grassroots officials trained in this village are very familiar with this system and can easily control local administrative and governance powers.
Under the rule of the Liao Kingdom, the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun did not form a strict governance system, and there was no strong gentry and landlord class at the grassroots level, which allowed the grassroots officials sent by Liangshan Village to take advantage.
If you were in the Song Dynasty, where the bureaucracy was very complete, it would not be so easy to easily control the grassroots.
Perhaps, the gentry and landlord groups deeply rooted in the local area could infiltrate and control the system of grassroots officials sent out by Liangshan.
Having controlled the grassroots, the wealthy merchants and landlords of various ethnic groups above them had no power to fight back in the face of the Liangshan soldiers.
A large number of the so-called upper-class people with bad deeds were purged, and were either directly beheaded in public trials, or sent to forced labor camps. As for the land and property, if they could save one or two floors, it would be considered a favor by the Governor's Office.
The Sixteenth Prefecture of Yanyun was originally the most prosperous area under the control of the Liao Kingdom. The wealth and resources here were far beyond the expectations of all the officials of the Metropolitan Governor's Office.
Regime change is a process of redistribution of wealth and resources.
The former dignitaries have fallen into the dust, and the newly established Metropolitan Governor's Palace is still in a state of vitality. There are not so many stereotypes and bad habits, and it is easy to draw on a blank sheet of paper.
Governor Chai is an out-and-out ruthless person, or in other words, in his opinion, ordinary people, who make up the vast majority, are what he values most, or the source of his luck.
Therefore, his executive orders and a series of measures are all considered for ordinary people who make up the vast majority of the population.
The new rural development and planning in our village were completely transplanted to Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures, with only slight changes in some places.
The entire Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun quickly calmed down under the control of the Yanyun Governor's Office, and then started a busy mode in full swing.
When Da Ting regrouped tens of thousands of soldiers and troops on the border, and when the envoys set foot on the boundary of the Sixteenth State of Yanyun, what they saw was a busy scene everywhere.
Just looking at the fiery labor scene and the orderly appearance, one can basically feel that the Yanyun Governor's Mansion has basically controlled the huge newly occupied land.
This call made An An secretly frightened...
When they arrived at the Governor's Mansion in Youzhou and met Governor Chai, the Song envoy immediately asked: "Does the Governor want to be a rebel?"
Governor Chai was not angry and asked with a smile: "When did the Sixteenth Prefecture of Yanyun become the territory of the big coward?"
One sentence made the Song envoy red-faced and speechless.
"I don't have the ability to recapture the sixteen states of Yanyun, so I just want to take advantage of it verbally. That's all the power of the Song Dynasty!"
Governor Chai was not polite at all and said calmly: "Envoy Song should be careful and explain his intention directly!"
"If it weren't for the fact that the governor thought he was not from the Song Dynasty!"
Obviously, Ambassador Song still wanted to struggle a little longer.
"Someone is Han Chinese!"
Governor Chai smiled and said: "I have no interest in the identity of the Song Dynasty people. Thinking about it makes me feel useless!"
Ambassador Song was so depressed that he almost vomited blood...
Compared to the Han Dynasty, the Song Dynasty was naturally pitifully weak, but there was no need for such a slap in the face, right?
"The imperial court wants the sixteen states of Yanyun. What conditions does the governor have?"
He did not continue to use his words and directly stated his intention.
“I can’t give you what you want!”
Governor Chai said leisurely: "The land in the northwest has been occupied by the Dangxiang people for decades. The land in the southeast is the land of great wealth for the imperial court. Do you dare to ask for it and the imperial court will give it to you?"
"As for the southwest, with Dali blocking it, there is not much potential for development!"
The envoy of Song Dynasty was very depressed and very angry. He said in a deep voice: "Does the Governor have no idea of returning to the imperial court?"
Damn it, after listening to what this guy said, it is all the ambition of one side to separate the country. He is really an unpleasant careerist.
"A certain family cannot trust the Zhao family!"
Governor Chai said bluntly: "Also, the current one is a veritable prodigal. Even if the imperial court controls the Sixteenth Prefecture of Yanyun, can the Forbidden Army with its garbage-like combat power be able to withstand the menacing Jin Army?"
"You don't have to worry about it, Governor!"
The Song envoy looked ugly and sneered: "The imperial court has an alliance with the Jin State..."
"Does the envoy think that the Jin Kingdom will not tear up the alliance?"
Governor Chai said rudely: "Especially when they know that Da Tong is so weak and so rich, do you think a bunch of barbarians will care about the so-called covenant?"
"It won't bother the Governor anymore!"
The envoy of Song Dynasty disagreed and curled his lips and said: "The Commander-in-Chief should tell you whether he is willing to return the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun!"
"What if someone doesn't pay it back?"
Governor Chai said leisurely: "What can the court do if you are too cowardly?"
"The imperial court does not hesitate to fight against each other!"
The envoy of Song Dynasty spoke sternly and said angrily: "I believe that the Governor will not see such a situation. The imperial court will not let go of the Liangshanshuibo where the Governor stayed before!"
Tsk…
If you have the guts, just start filming. Why are you so verbose here?
Faced with the threat from the Song envoy, Governor Chai felt extremely amused and said leisurely: "Then let me first see the methods of the Imperial Guards!"
"you……"
The envoy of the Song Dynasty almost vomited blood again, but the governor was helpless with the firewood.
This is not the Song Dynasty. Even if it is the Song Dynasty, the imperial court and the government have nothing to do with him. Unless they want to force Liangshan to rebel, they are not afraid of causing turmoil in the east and west routes of Beijing and the danger of completely interrupting the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal.
The first meeting ended on bad terms, but Ambassador Song had no intention of leaving. Instead, he stayed at the inn and planned to continue rubbing shoulders with Governor Chai.
Of course, he naturally hopes that the Song army that suddenly invades the Hebei border can put enough pressure on the troops under the command of the governor of Yanyun.
It's a pity that a coward is a coward. What seemed to be a good fight before has almost lost its goods. Now the tens of thousands of troops that have been put together temporarily are about the same, not to mention crooked melons and cracked dates. How can they be given to the governor of Yanyun?
Pressure from elites under the government?
On the border of Hebei, where the Zang army suffered a disastrous defeat in the first battle to regain the Sixteenth Prefecture of Yanyun, the armies of Dazang and the Yanyun Governor's Mansion were facing each other, having very friendly exchanges and discussions.
Lu Zhishen and Shi Jin, who were already considered senior star-tempered body masters, took action at the same time and defeated thirty or so generals in a row.
Their inhuman martial arts and horrific victories directly destroyed the morale of Da Ting's army. They were all dejected and listless, as pitiful and ridiculous as a defeated rooster.
In short, the tens of thousands of troops hastily organized by the Song Dynasty court, as well as the more than ten thousand troops who had fled back after being defeated, were completely despondent at this time, and had no intention of fighting desperately with the troops of the Yanyun Governor's Mansion.
If Ambassador Song saw this scene, he might be so angry that he would vomit blood.
What’s even more funny is that Tong Guan, who was responsible for the negotiations and led the army to intimidate, actually made a whimsical plan to redeem several of Yanyun’s sixteen states.
He was very afraid of the fighting power of the Liangshan troops, so naturally he did not have the guts and courage to continue to mobilize troops. If he could buy the fruits of victory with money, that would be the best thing.
Naturally, it was impossible to hand over such a shameful matter to the official representative of the Song Dynasty, so Tong Guan handed the matter over to Wang Chen, the commander-in-chief of the Liangshan army.
It is said that the Liangshan army did not completely join forces with Chai Daguan people, but maintained a relatively complete independence, and was only temporarily stationed somewhere in the Sixteenth Prefecture of Yanyun.
If he hadn't been worried about the imperial court's blame, he would have left Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures long ago and returned to the arms of the imperial court.
Fortunately, Tong Guan, who was in urgent need of credit and had an army of confidants, forgave Wang Zhen and let him shoulder the important task of privately negotiating with the Yanyun Governor's Mansion.
There was no other way. The two consecutive expeditions against Yanyun's Sixteen Prefectures failed, which had a huge impact on Tong Guan's reputation.
He himself is also sensitive to the dissatisfaction of the current officials towards him, and this is the most fatal thing.
At the moment, no matter what means he uses, as long as he can regain the favor of the current officials, Tong Guan can't care about the issue of losing face.
If you are concerned about face, your status will not be preserved, and it will be difficult to turn around at that time.
As for whether his decision is absurd, it depends on the final result. Tong Guan only cares about what he cares about...
