I became the son of Renzong

Chapter 766 Who Tests Who

There is no killing without resistance... This is what Zhao Xi expressed to Duan.

In fact, Zhao Xi also hoped that Dali would not resist and that Duan's family in Dali could see the situation clearly.Those who should be monks should be monks, and those who should be buried in the soil can also prevent Zhang Dun from carrying too many murders, and let those Wuman and Baiman be able to accept the rule of the country in their hearts.

However, how could an ambitious king be caught without a fight?
The Duan family has been in charge of Dali. After so many years, it has come to Duan Lianyi's generation, because Da Song helped get rid of the influence of the Gao, Yang, and Dong families, which promoted Duan Lianyi's ambition to a certain extent.

Almost all the tribes in Dali now respect the Duan family...

During the two Southern Expeditions, the fighting power shown by the Great Song made the tribes in Dali still a little afraid of the Great Song.In addition, the Duan family became an in-law with Da Song... This is considered very useful in the Dali tribe.

Therefore, although Duan Silian feels like a puppet, Duan Lianyi thinks this is a great opportunity for Dali to unify.Those tribes have indeed begun to cooperate with the Duan family to a certain extent.

Hence the ambition.

Cousin, at least a little close.When the second prince visited Dali, he naturally lived in the royal palace, so he expressed his inner grievances, had some ideas, and then tried to realize them.

"From the moment the ax fell on the Dadu River, Dasong and Dali were destined to be friendly neighbors... just don't say anything about your father's faults, how can you control Dali in this way? Mother dare not Uncle didn’t dare to speak out, alas...cousin is also in trouble. It’s just lonely...and just a prince..."

This is what the second prince expressed at the beginning when he was chatting.Then, the communication will deepen and the ideas will become more.

To a certain extent, the second prince's plan is very thorough, and it seems that Dali has no loss, and he can't even take responsibility...

He doesn't understand, there are some things that don't need these things, as long as Shangguo Dasong thinks it's fine.

"Zhang Shuai, the Dali tribe tends to gather in the central city of Yangjubaa, which will hinder the army's march... The time for the heroes to come to Dali is too short to be united."

Zhang Dun is not a fool. After leading the army through Dongchuan Mansion, he first found Zheng Xia who had been wandering around in Dali, but what Zheng Xia said didn't seem to have much effect on the army.

"How do those Wuman and Baiman feel towards Duan?"

"I can't talk about good feelings, nor can I talk about bad feelings. According to Xia's understanding, it is because the Duan family is the royal in-law of the country. In Dali, the in-law relationship must be quite strong, almost an offensive and defensive alliance relationship. Therefore, it is essentially The Duan family used the name of the Song Dynasty to bring the tribe home..."

"That is to say, the arrival of my Song Dynasty can dismantle the situation where the Duan family leads the tribe?"

What Zheng Xia said was new to Zhang Dun.Although Zhang Dun didn't care how many Dali people were killed, if there was a possibility of killing less, he would still kill less.

His goal is not the Privy Council, nor is it simply a commander in chief. If he can avoid the stain of being criticized, he will still avoid it.Wang Shao being the coach and being the coach himself are two different things.

This is also the reason why he quickly contacted Zheng Xia as soon as he entered Dali territory.

"No, or I'm not sure. According to the investigation, it doesn't seem to be the case. There are some sayings in various tribes that the officials tested the prince's ability, which caused the fight between the princes."

"In the battle between the princes, because the prince has the uncle's family of a military general, and the second prince is only of the blood of the Dali royal family, there is a situation where the army is overwhelming. It is not the intention of the Song Dynasty court, but the prince's family. department's behavior."

"It is rumored that the [-] troops of the Southern Expedition are the greatest energy that the prince can borrow from the generals. As long as the tribes in Dali can protect the second prince from defeat, there will be great rewards..."

Are Dali people really so foolish?Zhang Dun was a little dumbfounded.

Do these tribes in Dali really believe such an obvious incitement to pull backs and find cannon fodder?But Zheng Xia wandered around in Dali for a few months, shouldn't he be deceived by those barbarians?

"In fact, the tribes in Dali seem to agree with this rhetoric. In the past few years in Dali, except for the slight stability after the intervention of the Guochao, the rest of the time has been disputes among the Duan, Yang, and Gao families. The tribes in various places in Dali are also The object that is often drawn."

"I've used this tactic a lot, and I'm used to thinking like this. Maybe no one would have cared about it before, but this time Duan generously gave fifty muskets to each of the tribes who went to war..."

Zheng Xia has indeed mastered the kung fu, and it is quite detailed, that is, the content of Duan's promise is clear.

That's right, it's the rarest thing to say now. For other courts, Guochao's firearms are indeed very tempting.

"What does Jiefu think?"

Zhang Dun asked for advice sincerely.If his deputy commander, in a word, only needs to crush the past, he doesn't have so much time to think about what the Dali tribe thinks.

But I am the coach, and letting Dali's blood flow away will do nothing but harm to my career.

"Zhang Shuai, there is no other way at this time, the only way is to be powerful!"

Well, the assistant officer seems to have the same mind.

Zhang Dun was in no mood to continue talking to Zheng Xia.If you really want to shock them with prestige, you don't need to care about the situation of the tribes in Dali at all. Shunchang's downfall, you just need to suppress it.

The reason for consulting Zheng Xia's opinion was the official's explanation before the expedition. At the same time, the imperial court also issued an edict to let Zheng Xia return to Jian and serve in the army before the war.What's more, Zhang Dun has become the coach, so he can't do things so directly.

"Zhang Shuai, this is what Xia has been investigating for several months. It has indicated the tendencies and mutual relations of the various tribes in Dali, including the sphere of influence that originally belonged to the Duan, Gao, and Yang families, and who has those relationships with whom, etc. ..."

Zheng Xia saw Zhang Dun serving tea and knew it was time to leave.So I handed over the copywriting I wrote to Zhang Dun...

Zhang Dun didn't slow down until Zheng Xia got out of the handsome account... What do you mean?This is what I needed at first, and I have been stalking for a long time to kill it directly, and when it is time, I only provide useful things.

It is estimated that once he decides to kill like this, Zheng Jiefu will probably not come up with this thing.

I am consulting Zheng Jiefu, Zheng Jiefu is probably also testing himself, right?It seems that those remarks during the Western Expedition were not a secret in the court, that is, he already had a ruthless reputation.

This Zheng Jiefu is a real gentleman.

Zhang Dun turned his attention to look at the copywriting that Zheng Xia had left for him, only to realize that Zheng Jiefu's efforts were not just a little bit.In this copy, a detailed analysis of the tribes in Dali, those who are pro-Song, those who are rebellious, those who are mercenary, those who are loyal to the Duan family, etc., and even the reinforcements to the city of Yangjubaa are detailed.
