Physician of the Song Dynasty: Zhang Kai and Li Qingzhao have a private life-long contract

Ten days ago!

South of Dali City, under Longwei Pass! Two hundred thousand troops gathered!

The entire Longwei Pass suddenly felt like it was facing a formidable enemy and was ready to fight.

Decades ago, the Bagan dynasty in the south attacked Dali with only about 100,000 servants, but who would have thought that this time, 200,000 troops would once again come to Longwei Pass.

"General Fan!"

The leaders of the southwestern Yi tribes and the thirty-six tribes in eastern Yunnan gathered in the Song army's tent to discuss the attack on Longweiguan.

"Now we have 200,000 troops. When Bagan attacked Dali, they could only have 100,000 troops at most. The general only needs to issue a letter of surrender, advocating the pardon of the Gao family and his son, and he can make Duan Zhengchun obediently leave the city and surrender." Song Wanzhang said with high spirits.

Along the way, they were invincible and invincible. They had already developed the habit of arrogance. Not to mention that they had 200,000 troops. The defeat of Dali City was certain. If Duan Zhengchun had sense, he would definitely behave. of surrender.

Momibu Mengti shook his head and said: "It's a pity that the real power in Dali City is not Duan Zhengchun, but Gao Shengtai and his son. He ordered the walls to be fortified and the country to be cleared, and he also assembled heavy troops to defend Longwei Pass. I'm afraid it's impossible to surrender easily."

"Yes, Longwei Pass was breached back then because Dali took the initiative to send troops and was defeated. However, the real Longwei Pass has never been breached." Another leader of the Wuman tribe said solemnly.

The tribes of the southwestern barbarians are naturally willing to persuade them to surrender. In this way, they can occupy Dali without any effort and gain maximum benefits.

The Thirty-Sixth Division of Eastern Yunnan was unwilling to persuade them to surrender, because once the Gao family and his son surrendered, they would lose the excuse to kill the Gao family and his son. Over time, they would definitely be retaliated by the Gao family. Only the Gao family and his son could be killed. The thirty-six tribes in eastern Yunnan are at ease.

Fan Zheng nodded and said: "Persuading surrender is the last resort. The Gao family and his son are not willing to lose the power in their hands. Not to mention that Dali knows that our army does not have much food and grass, so it will definitely delay time and consume our army's food and grass. When the time comes, , the Gao family and his son are unwilling to surrender, our army is short of food and grass, and there may be a risk of the entire army being annihilated."

Everyone couldn't help but tremble in their hearts. Regarding the issue of food and fodder for the army, they naturally knew clearly that the closer they got to Dali City, the more difficult it would be to obtain food and fodder. I'm afraid they wouldn't be able to last long with their own food and fodder alone.

The only way now is to quickly break through the city to solve the army's food crisis.

Monty said respectfully towards Fan Zheng: "The only plan now is to attack the city with a large army. We have 200,000 troops, and with the help of the thunder in General Fan's hand, we will definitely be like Shanchan Mansion." Fight and go down.”

Monty highly praised the Song Army's gunpowder weapons. Such powerful gunpowder weapons could surely break through Longwei Pass in one fell swoop.

The various tribes in southwestern Yi were also moved in their hearts and couldn't help but look at Fan Zheng. This was also a way to destroy the city.

Fan Zheng spread his hands and said: "A strong attack on Longwei Pass is the best strategy. First of all, Longwei Pass is a dangerous pass. If you want to attack it by force, you will definitely suffer heavy casualties. What's more, Fan came all the way east and used gunpowder weapons to clear the way and consume There are quite a lot. Recently, in order to raise food and fodder for the army, they have continuously used gunpowder weapons to conquer the important town of Dali. Now there are not many gunpowder weapons in the hands of the Song army. Once they are used up, it may be difficult to break through Longwei Pass."

"What, there are not many gunpowder weapons left!"

All the clan leaders exclaimed. No one expected that at the most critical moment, the Song Army would not have many of the strongest weapons.

Monty said with a gloomy face: "Isn't General Fan deliberately trying to amuse us? When we wanted to retreat, General Fan promised to break the city with one blow. Now, instead of persuading him to surrender, he doesn't even have many gunpowder weapons. Do you want to use me?" Wait for your flesh and blood to break through this Dragon Tail Pass."

Everyone in the entire military tent looked solemn.

Nowadays, the army is short of food and grass, and there are not many gunpowder weapons. If it cannot break through Longwei Pass in a short time, I am afraid that there will be a crisis of annihilation of the entire army.

They have all seen Longwei Pass with their own eyes. If they attack Longwei Pass with flesh and blood, they may need countless lives. And since their various ministries are not subordinate to each other, it may be impossible to attack Longwei Pass with all their strength.

All the clan leaders were a little impatient. They originally believed that the evil doctor Fan Zheng had a way to defeat the city, but now that the two methods of persuading surrender and gunpowder were unavailable, they suddenly became impetuous.

Yang Changchun of the Bozhou Yang Family saw the calm face of the evil doctor Fan Zheng and said in his heart: "General Fan once said that persuading surrender is the worst strategy, while attacking by force is the middle strategy. I think there must be a good way to destroy the city with one blow."

In an instant, all eyes were focused on Fan Zheng.

Fan Zheng did not answer and asked instead: "Why is Dali so arrogant? Isn't it relying on the natural dangers of Dali City? There are Longshou Pass in the north, Longwei Pass in the south, Erhai Lake in the east, and Cangshan Mountain in the west. It can be said that it combines natural dangers." .”

Everyone nodded in agreement. Anyone who encounters a place with natural dangers on all sides like Dali City would probably be helpless. The one hundred thousand elite soldiers of the Tang Dynasty were all wiped out at Longshou Pass.

"The lessons learned by the Tang Army are enough to prove that it is not advisable to storm Longwei Pass. Then should we change the direction and attack from another direction." Fan Zhengdao.

"If we attack in another direction, can we still swim across the Erhai Lake?" Monty frowned.

When the Song army invaded, Dali had already prepared for it and had already captured the ships in the Erhai Lake. It was probably too late for the Song army to build ships now. Even if they managed to build a small number of ships to cross the Erhai Lake, they would probably only risk their lives.

Fan Zheng said calmly: "Since Erhai cannot work, what about the direction of Cangshan Mountain? If our army passes through Cangshan Mountain, bypasses Longwei Pass, and goes straight into Dali City, Dali City will definitely fall in a single battle."

"Crossing Cangshan Mountain!"

Suddenly, in the military tent, all the southwestern Yi tribes and the thirty-six tribes in eastern Yunnan were in an uproar. No one thought that the evil doctor Fan Zheng's evil recipe was to cross Cangshan Mountain.

"Cangshan? Cangshan is even more dangerous, with snow that never melts all year round, and endless mountains and ridges..." Monty talked endlessly about the dangers of Cangshan, and Cangshan is the sacred mountain of Dali, and he is extremely in awe of it. .

Fan Zheng looked at the snow-covered Cangshan Mountains that never melted all year round and sneered: "In the Song Dynasty, there is a saying that it is dark under the lamp. They think that the most dangerous place is the safest place, but they don't know that the safest place in the world may be The most dangerous place."

"The safest place is the most dangerous place!" Everyone looked at Fan Zheng in confusion. Dali uses the natural dangers of Cangshan Mountain as a barrier.

"It's dark under the lamp!"

Yang Bangyi suddenly moved and turned his attention to Cangshan Mountain, which is covered with snow all year round.

Fan Zheng stood up and looked at Cangshan Mountain in the distance. He saw that the peaks of Cangshan Mountain were covered with snow all year round, but they were as warm as spring at the foot of the mountain.

"Cangshan Mountain is indeed extremely steep, but that is just the main peak. There are ways to cross between the peaks! If we cross Cangshan Mountain from the mountains between the peaks, we will definitely be able to capture Dali City in one fell swoop."

"Crossing Cangshan Mountain!"

Everyone couldn't help but exclaimed. No one thought that the evil doctor Fan Zheng's evil recipe was so evil. He actually wanted to cross Cangshan Mountain. In this way, the two great passes of Dali were in vain.

"How is it possible? Cangshan has never been crossed by an army!" Monty said in disbelief.

"Just because it has not been traveled before does not mean that it cannot be traveled. At the moment, Fan Zheng picked up a map, and it was the topographic map of Cangshan Mountain. He immediately said: "If our army can set off from Shimen Pass, it only needs to climb over Cangshan Mountain. From then on, There are no more dangerous peaks! Enough to reach directly to Dali City. "
