One Piece of Song Dynasty

Chapter 651 Yue Fei goes to Dali

After receiving the order, Yue Fei quickly rushed to Lin'an. When he arrived at the Lin'an government office, Li Xin took Yue Fei directly to the secret room and said: "Yue Fei, the army has been training for several years, how is the training situation in the army?"

Yue Fei replied: "Everything is normal in the military training, except that there have been no battles, and the soldiers are somewhat slack."

Li Xin smiled and said: "Why, you are so anxious."

Yue Fei said: "The key is that the soldiers are itching to watch the three governors ahead of them, Paoze, have made repeated military exploits."

Li Xin joked: "I think it's you, Yue Fei, who can't bear the loneliness. Well, you have something to do this time."

Yue Fei said excitedly: "Oh, the prince is preparing for the Northern Expedition."

Li Xin shook his head and said: "It's not the Northern Expedition. The time for the Northern Expedition is not yet ripe. This time your goal is here."

Yue Fei looked at the position Li Xin drew on the map and said: "Dali"

Li Xin nodded and said: "Yes, it is Dali. Dali has been the territory of our Central Plains Dynasty since the Qin and Han Dynasties. It was not thrown away until this dynasty. This time, I only took back what we had thrown away. This time I will only use your Yue Fei's one hundred thousand troops to attack Dali. This is also an opportunity to test your training results before the Northern Expedition."

Yue Fei assured: "My lord, don't worry, I will definitely lead a large army to capture Dali."

Li Xin pointed at the map and said: "This operation to attack Dali is a secret operation. No one except your main generals can be informed before the operation begins. You can divide the attack on Dali into two groups, one from Lizhou on Chengdu Road. Fight from north to south, all the way from Ziqi in Guangxi from east to west. As for how to distribute the troops, that is your business, Yue Fei."

Yue Fei nodded and said, "I understand."

Li Xin urged: "Dali is also a multi-ethnic place. When you go there, you must pay attention to the relationship with all ethnic groups. Military discipline must be strictly observed. Of course, you can take action against some people who have done many evil things in the local area. This will help win over the local bottom class." The support of the people, and our secret spy network in Dali will also provide you with help during the attack on Dali. This paper has their contact information, or they will take the initiative to find you. The last thing to pay attention to is The Gao family and the Duan family in Dali, the Gao family has been operating in Dali for decades, and I must eradicate it. The Duan family has a good reputation in Dali and can stay, but the Duan family must be sent to Lin'an." After that, Li Xin handed over a The paper was handed to Yue Fei.

Yue Fei took the paper and said: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I have all written it down."

After Yue Fei left Lin'an Mansion, he hurried back to the Pingjiang Mansion Camp. When he arrived at the camp, Yue Fei immediately summoned Wang Gui, Li Ruoxu, Zhang Xian, and Lu Junyi and said, "Everyone, we finally have something to do."

Wang Gui asked: "Brother, what makes you so happy?"

Yue Fei replied: "Your Majesty has given us a decree. We are going to fight."

Zhang Xian said excitedly: "We are finally going to fight, brother, where is our target in the Central Plains?"

Yue Fei shook his head and said: "It's not the Central Plains, it's Dali."

Li Ruoxu said in confusion: "The prince actually wants to fight against Dali."

Yue Fei nodded and said: "Yes, the prince said that Dali has always been the territory of our Central Plains Dynasty. This time we are just going to take back what originally belonged to us. Well, only a few of us know about this matter now. This attack Dali is a secret operation. I want to divide my troops into two groups to attack Dali. One group of troops, commanded by Zhang Xian and Lu Junyi, will attack south from Lizhou on Chengdu Road. The other group will be attacked from Qi to the west on Guangxi Road under my personal command. The two groups will attack Dali in secret. The armies finally met in Dali City. Dali is also a place with many ethnic groups. I once again emphasized military discipline. All armies must strictly abide by military discipline. This attack on Dali is the prince's test of the results of our training over the past few years."

The generals clasped their fists and said, "Yes, Commander."

Yue Fei said: "Okay, let's all go back and prepare. Tomorrow the whole army will move southwest."

Seeing that the puppet Qi was successfully deposed, Jin Xizong thought that it was heaven that favored the Central Plains. In the th year of Jianyan in the Southern Song Dynasty, the Kingdom of Jin announced that the Yuan Dynasty would be changed to the first year of Tianjuan. At the same time, Wanyanchang was promoted to the left deputy marshal of King Lu, and Wanyan Zongbi was promoted to the right deputy marshal of King Shen. However, the conflict between the two became public. The focus of the conflict was still the Central Plains: if Liu Yu was deposed, who would the Central Plains be handed over to?

Wanyanchang emphasized that as long as the Song Dynasty recognized it as a vassal of the Jin Dynasty, the land of Henan and Shaanxi could be returned to the Song Dynasty. However, Wu Shu believed that the Central Plains was conquered by the Jin Dynasty soldiers with their own flesh and blood. How could it be easily returned to the Song Dynasty? Since the Song Dynasty abolished Liu Yu, why didn't Jin run the Central Plains on its own? Therefore, the two started a big debate in the main hall of the Jin Dynasty.

Wan Yanchang's reason is that the Central Plains covers thousands of miles and has tens of millions of people. Liu Yu's grain reserves are only 90 dendrobium. It can be seen that the Central Plains is already in dire straits. Apart from fighting, who can run the Central Plains? Dajin paid tribute and became a minister, and let the people of Song Dynasty govern the Central Plains on behalf of Dajin. The rejuvenation of the Central Plains is most beneficial to Dajincai.

Because Jin Xizong had worshiped Yu Wenxuzhong as his teacher since he was a child, he read Chinese books, wrote Chinese characters, wore Han clothes, and ate Han food. He was very sinicized. Not only did he fully agree with Wan Yanchang's return of the Central Plains to the Song Dynasty, he even further believed that it was the same as the Song Dynasty. After the peace talks, the hereditary system of Meng'an Muke must be abolished, the etiquette of the Han system should be fully imitated, the Han official system should be implemented, and the economy should be reformed. Wu Shu was surprised and immediately became unhappy: "Strengthening, planning and restraint are the foundation of our country, how can we change it?"

"Meng'an Muke is outdated. Abolition of Men'an Muke is a century-old plan to promote the progress of our nation." Wan Yanchang's explanation was strongly opposed by Wu Shu: "Abolition of the old Jurchen system is equivalent to turning our country into a The second Song Dynasty, then we don’t have to conquer Song Dynasty southward in the future."

"Are you right about peace between the two countries and a truce between the north and the south? Why does Wushu always like to resort to militarism?" Wan Yanchang asked. Wu Shu refused to listen. After hearing this, he became even more angry: "I am different from the Song Dynasty. If the Jin Dynasty wants to be strong, it must continue to fight. Once it becomes Chinese, it will lose its combat effectiveness."

"Peace negotiation is the emperor's will. It is my national policy of Dajin. If you dare to obstruct it, I will punish you for your crime on behalf of the emperor." In the era of cold weapons, prosperity and civilization often meant the loss of barbaric blood. Wanyanchang also knew that this contradiction was irreconcilable, so he used imperial power to suppress Wushu. Unexpectedly, Wu Shu was furious and rushed towards him with his sword drawn: "Wan Yanchang, you are monopolizing power and harming the country. You are a traitor to Da Jin. I am incompatible with you."

"You are a war madman, you are bloodthirsty, killing without restraint, and you dare to act wild in public." Wan Yanchang also drew his sword. Yu Wenxuzhong and everyone hurriedly pulled them away. Wu Shu was still angry and said: "Wan Yanchang, I will kill you sooner or later. Just wait."

"Barbarism means that the barbarian spirit cannot be changed. From now on, you are not allowed to bring swords to the palace and retreat from the court." Jin Xizong was shaking with anger and cursed Wu Shu as a barbarian. In fact, he was claiming to be a Han Chinese in the Central Plains. Although Wu Shu was furious, he had no choice but to bow his head and bow to everyone. Jin Xizong went to court and walked to the door. He remembered that he had just written some thin gold paintings in the morning, so he asked King Lu and Prime Minister Yuwen to appreciate them. Wan Yanchang and Yu Wenxuzhong looked at each other and let him go, leaving Wu Shu alone.
