Rebirth: Overthrow Song Dynasty

The Lifan Academy is on the west side of Yanjing City. It is quite secluded and the environment inside is extremely beautiful.

An Pulin and Li Rui walked in the meantime, with smiles on their faces.

"Now I finally know why the Han people didn't take the initiative to attack us. It turned out to be a dispute between civil and martial arts! It was the national policy of the Song Dynasty to promote culture and suppress martial arts, and it has been like this for more than a hundred years! It's still the case now! But this gives us Koreans a chance!" An Pulin said softly.

"Yeah, this Song Dynasty emperor is a powerful character. In just two or three years, the Yanyun area has become so prosperous! Their national strength, financial strength, and military strength are better than us. If the civil and military attack us together, There is only one dead end for us in Goryeo! Well now, we have time to develop slowly! After ten or twenty years, we will rely on the land of Liaodong, with a large population, and our national power will become stronger and stronger. At that time, we can truly Contended with Da Song." Li Rui also said with a smile on his face.

"But the Song people let us go to Korea as ministers, this is not easy to handle!" An Pulin said.

"It's just a matter of face! We used to claim to the Tang Dynasty before, and then to the Khitans and Jurchens. Now it is nothing to claim to the Song Dynasty! We lost face, but we got Liaodong, this kind of business can be done. !" Li Rui smiled.

"It's just that your Majesty and General Cui Zhuo may not be able to agree." An Pulin said.

"No matter what, we have to convince them." Li Rui said.

An Pulin nodded.

The two of them entered the courtyard where they were, and at this moment, the Korean attendants had already greeted them.

There were several big houses in the yard. They headed towards the middle house. They just came to the door of the house. They found that there was a young man sitting in the house, it was Duan Heming, the son of the Duan family in Dali.

"The two adults are back?" Duan Heming stood up and smiled.

"Hurry up, please sit down!" An Pulin nodded and said.

At the moment, Duan Heming continued to sit down, An Pulin and Li Rui also sat there after changing the dresses outside.

"This is our Korean ginseng tea, what do you think of Brother Duan?" An Pulin said.

"Very good! I have long heard that Goryeo's ginsengs are famous all over the world, as expected!" Duan Heming said.

"The property is different from the south to the north! This time we came to the Song Dynasty and brought some gifts to the monarchs of the Song Dynasty. When Brother Duan returns, we will also give some of the gifts to Brother Duan." An Pu Lin said.

"Since these gifts are for the Emperor Song Dynasty, how dare Duan be?" Duan Heming hurriedly said.

"Hey, what's the matter here? You are the envoy of Dali, our two countries are around the Song Dynasty, just to make friends." An Pulin smiled.

"Looking at the looks of the two adults, today's negotiations seem to be good?" Duan Heming smiled and said.

"The Song people have agreed to the peace talks! They are willing to give up part of the city in Liaodong, but they want us to spend money to buy it!" An Pu Lin said.

"Oh? Is there such a thing? The world still uses money to buy cities?" Duan Heming said in disbelief.

"The Song Dynasty has just experienced war and the treasury is empty, so it needs money! We have been along the way, the Song Dynasty is indeed prosperous, but it is just a mere appearance!" An Pu Lin said.

Duan Heming frowned, with a confused look on his face.

"As long as the contract is signed, we can truly own Liaodong!" Li Rui said.

"Did the Song people say how much money?" Duan Heming said.

"This is not true." An Pu Lin said.

"Strange." Duan Heming murmured.

"Da Song actually wants to negotiate with us. We won't talk more about the reasons for this! Brother Duan, haven't you seen the Emperor Song yet?" An Pu Lin said.

"This is not the case. For some reason, your Majesty will not summon me." Duan Heming muttered.

"It's a shame not to go out to play in this prosperous place of Yanjing! When I came just now, I saw a brothel at the door, people come and go, brother Duan, you are the youngest, you should like these the most! Although we did not sign a contract today, Da Song does have the intention of peace talks with us. I will be happy in my heart, go, we invite you to visit the brothel." An Pulin is over sixty years old, but his body is very strong and he is standing now. Get up, said.

"Little brother really doesn't have such a mood." Duan Heming smiled bitterly.

He originally thought that he had arrived yesterday, and that he would be able to see the Emperor Song Dynasty today. Who knows that there is no news now, so why is he in the mood to hang out.

"In this case, the two of us will go out and play, Brother Duan will continue to stay in the Lifan Academy." An Pulin laughed loudly.

In the early morning of the second day, when the sky was dark, An Pulin and Li Rui had already got up and headed for the palace of Yanjing City.

Duan Heming was still waiting in the room boredly, but an hour later an official from the Li Fanyuan came in and said, "Master Duan, please come with us to the palace. Your Majesty will summon you!"

Duan Heming was taken aback for a moment, and then he showed a happy expression on his face, saying: "Okay, I'm going now!"

At the moment Duan Heming was also heading towards the palace under the leadership of the Lifan Academy officials, and his heart was both excited and perturbed.

"I have traveled in the Song Dynasty for half a year, and I have thoroughly investigated some of the situation of the Song Dynasty monarchs, and also investigated the situation in various parts of the Song Dynasty. I even saw the training of the Song Dynasty army with my own eyes. It is really a strong army in the world, and no one can stop it! If you can get help from Song Dynasty this time, you will definitely be able to solve the plight of Dali!" Duan He said secretly.

He recalled in his heart how he should speak and plead later, and he had entered the palace unknowingly, but he had no intention of looking at the scenery of the palace at all.

Not long after, he came to the imperial study room, where he met Zhao Chen, and knelt down.

"Be flat! There are seats there, sit down by yourself." Zhao Chen said.

"The subjects of a small country dare not sit down." Duan Heming lowered his head, anxiously said.

"Let you sit down, just sit down! We have to discuss a lot of things, how can you keep standing?" Zhao Chen said.

Duan Heming just stepped aside and sat down. He quietly looked at Zhao Chen, feeling that Zhao Chen's face seemed to have a gentle smile.

"Have your majesty seen the credential submitted by the villain?" Duan Heming said.

"I have seen it! You are called Duan Heming, and the current Lord of Dali is called Duan Heyu. What is your relationship?" Zhao Chen said.

"The current state lord of Dali is the villain brother!" Duan Heming said.

"It's really not easy for you to come to Yanjing from Dali alone!" Zhao Chen said.

"In order to restore the country, no matter how difficult it is! The villain begs your Majesty to send troops to Dali to eliminate the traitors of Dali. From now on, Dali will always be a minister of Song Dynasty, and the emperor will be the co-master of the world for generations." Duan Heming knelt again. Come down, said.

Zhao Chen raised his hand and motioned Duan Heming to stand up, his mind was thinking about the situation in Dali.

Later generations only know the Duan family of Dali, but they don't know that Dali is also divided into two stages: "preliminary state" and "posterior state"! About a hundred years ago, when the fourth lord of Dali was succeeded to the throne, Dali’s prime minister Gao Zhisheng was given the right to live in the opposition, and the land of Dali Kunming was entrusted to Gao Zhisheng by the lord of Dali. ! Seventy years ago, Yang Yizhen, another power official of the Dali State, killed the King of Dali, Duan Lianyi, to stand on his own. Gao Shengtai, the son of Gaozhi's life, raised his army to destroy the Yang family, and established Duan Lianyi's nephew Duan Shouhui as the king! Sixty years ago, Gao Shengtai continued to explain the position and forced Duan Fenghui Zen to be located in Duan Zhengming.

Forty years ago, Gao Shengtai took Duan Zhengming and replaced him, calling himself the "king of Dazhong". However, there are still people in Dali who oppose Gao Shengtai, and the Duan clan in Dali still has some loyal political forces. Although the Gao clan controls the power of the country, it is difficult to change people's hearts! When Gao Shengtai was dying, he told his descendants, "The reason why I became the emperor and replaced Dali was because I was persecuted by Duan Zhengming! The Duan was weak and obeyed the opinions of the officials! Now my deadline is imminent. After my death, future generations are only allowed to be prime ministers. Assist the emperor, no longer be emperor! The country returns to the Duan clan", so Gao Taiming's son Gao Taiming made Duan Zhengming's younger brother Duan Zhengchun the emperor, and the Dali kingdom after Duan Zhengchun was called "Hou Liguo".

It is a pity that Duan Zhengchun is only the king of Dali in name, and everything in the Dali kingdom is under the control of the Gao family! The Gao family has been Dali's prime minister for generations and inherited from the Chinese public, and is the de facto Dali state lord.

Twenty years ago, Gao Taiming forced Duan Zhengchun to abdicate and succeeded him to the throne by Duan Zhengchun's immature son, Duan Heyu. This section of Heyu is the reputation of Duan in later modern martial arts novels! Until now, Duan and Yu are both kings of Dali.

Duan Heming came to Da Song secretly because he begged Da Song to send troops to clear the Gao family.

However, Zhao Chen did not summon Duan Heming yesterday. It was because Duan Heming came too suddenly. Zhao Chen, the Military Aircraft Department, and the General Staff Headquarters needed to discuss this matter. After the preliminary results were obtained yesterday, Zhao Chen contacted Duan Heming again today. .

"Your Majesty, as long as the Song Dynasty clears the Gao clan, I will even be willing to become a possession of the Song Dynasty! I, the King of Dali, will be like the King of the Song Dynasty from now on, as long as I can be safe and prosperous! We are willing to dedicate Dali completely. Come out, I only ask your Majesty to send troops!" Duan Heming gritted his teeth when he saw that Zhao Chen was still thinking.

"How is the strength of Dali now?" Zhao Chen said.

"The small country of Dali has only more than 30,000 soldiers and horses, but they are all under the control of the Gao family." Duan Heming said.

"After the Gao family is eliminated, I will personally designate the King of Dali as the King of Zhennan of the Song Dynasty, and guard Dali for generations! The Song Dynasty will not be destroyed, and the Duan family will always be prosperous and wealthy, just like my Zhao Song royal family! But you must also help me to appease Dali. Subjects!" Zhao Chen said.

"Your Majesty, don’t worry, we just want not to be killed by the Gao family, not to mention other things? My Dali Duan family was originally from the Eastern Han Dynasty Wuwei prefect Duan Jong, and it is the same species as the Da Song. It is only natural for Dali to merge into the Da Song. "Duan Heming said excitedly.

"You go to the General Staff Headquarters and write all the information about Dali's military strength and pass conditions. When the time is right, Da Song will naturally send troops to Dali." Zhao Chen said.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Duan Heming said with joy in his heart.

Over the past few decades, the Duan Clan of Dali has been alive tremblingly. Although on the surface they are still the masters of Dali, in fact they can't even leave Dali City! Dali Duan was almost completely under house arrest by Gao! This time Duan Heming also sneaked out. He could imagine that many of his relatives must have been implicated, and it was possible to be killed by Gao! But for the entire Duan Clan in Dali, he was still willing to do such a thing. Now that he heard Da Songken dispatch troops, he was indeed delighted.

Duan Heming has left, and only Zhao Chen is left in the imperial study room. He spread a map on the table.

The center of the map is the Great Song Dynasty, the vast Mongolian steppe to the north, the Qincha steppe to the north, the area of ​​Moscow to the north, and Europe to the west from Moscow! Europe is still in the dark Middle Ages. The whole Europe is extremely backward, and the culture, economy, technology, and system are far inferior to that of the Song Dynasty! There are not many formal countries in Europe now, and many kings are simply lords and lords! To the east is Goryeo, and to the east of Goryeo is the most disgusting Dongying Japanese people in the hearts of later generations. There are still some civilizations in Korea, but the Japanese have not established the centralized system of the latter shogunate era. The Japanese territory is not as good as that of the later generations. Hokkaido is still in a wild. In times, continue to go east through the vast sea, and it is the North American continent that no one knows now! The North American continent is rich in products, but it is still dominated by the Indians, and they are far behind! To the southwest of the Song Dynasty is the country of Dali. This country is also extremely large, including all of Yunnan and Guizhou in later generations, as well as the southwest of Sichuan, the west of Guangxi, the north of Myanmar, the north of Laos, and the northwest of Vietnam. However, Dali has many mountains, a limited population, and very limited financial and military resources! The south of the Song Dynasty is where Annan is located. It was originally the territory of the Han people. Unfortunately, after the establishment of Song Dynasty, Annan became independent and later established Vietnam! Looking up, all countries in the world are currently behind the Song Dynasty! In the past, the Song Dynasty still had shortcomings in military strength, but after Zhao Chen took the throne, less than ten years later, the Song army has undergone earth-shaking changes, and the Song Dynasty’s military strength has surpassed the northern grassland nomads!

"In later generations, Napoleon once compared China to a sleeping lion. Now this lion has awakened, and other countries in the world are sleeping! An unprecedented beast has come out, and the whole world will be surrendered to the feet of Song Dynasty. Before I had to reform Da Song step by step! Educational imperial examination reform is only the first step, and there will be more reforms in the future! The annexation of Goryeo and Dali is just a trifle. There has been a large-scale nationwide war." Zhao Chen secretly said.
