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

Fan Chunli looked around the court and said proudly: "Just as the policy of liberating serfs, which was effective in Tubo, cannot be implemented in Dali, the southwest will never repeat the disaster of Dangxiang."

"In the land of Xixia, the Dangxiang family dominates, and the Li family is in charge of the entire Dangxiang family. This is the foundation for Li Yuanhao's rise. Among the tribes in the southwest, the largest tribes include the four families of the Yang family in Bozhou, and there are countless other small tribes. In addition to the thirty-six tribes in eastern Yunnan and other tribes, there are hundreds of them. Coupled with the special terrain of the southwest, if the chieftain system is implemented, it is impossible for each chieftain to submit to other tribes, and the tribes in the southwest will always be A plate of loose sand.”

"If the chieftain system had been proposed a hundred years ago, and the imperial court had applied it to all party ministries, allowing them to be hereditary and self-reliant, it might have been possible to avoid the disaster of Xixia."

At this moment, Fan Chunli finally understood the essence of Fan Zheng's chieftain system. The chieftain system was a conspiracy that could disintegrate all the ministries in the southwest without spending a single soldier or money from the court.

For the benefit of themselves and their families, the chiefs of the tribes in the southwest would happily accept the chieftains from the court even if they knew the shortcomings of the chieftain system. They would even try their best to maintain the chieftain system. From then on, they would dominate their own tribes and completely lose their ambitions.

"The chieftain system!"

The officials couldn't help but feel awe-inspiring, and began to formally examine the chieftain system of the evil doctor Fan Zheng, and then discovered the beauty of the chieftain system.

"This is a wonderful recipe! The hereditary system of the past dynasties is like a parasite, constantly sucking the blood of the imperial court. The chieftain system allows the hereditary system of the southwestern tribes to be replaced without any reward from the imperial court. These patriarchs are like parasites and cannot absorb the blood of the imperial court. If you want blood, you can only draw the blood of your own tribe, which will harm one tribe and fatten the whole family. It is like one person suffering from schistosomiasis, with no possibility of growing stronger. Once this strategy is implemented, the southwest will be worry-free." Su Song sighed.

"Is the chieftain system the schistosomiasis of the Southwest?" All the officials suddenly felt enlightened, and their hearts suddenly became enlightened.

Fan Chunli echoed: "Moreover, Fan Zheng led the Eastern Route Army all the way unimpeded and invincible. He relied on the southwest departments. Now that the Song Dynasty has not established a stable foothold in the southwest, it may take ten years to immigrate the people. The so-called strong dragon cannot suppress Local snakes, without the cooperation of the southwest ministries, I am afraid that they will not be able to completely control Dali. I think the chieftain system is the best solution!"

"Is the chieftain system the best policy?" The New Party frowned. If the chieftain system of the evil doctor Fan Zheng is the best policy, then how should the Privy Councilor Zeng Bu's proposal be handled?

Fan Chunli snorted coldly: "Our biggest enemy in the Song Dynasty is the Liaoxia. It is not appropriate to waste too much troops and energy in the southwest, especially since the terrain in the southwest is dangerous and there are forests everywhere. If the government is governed by floating officials, the various ministries in the southwest will definitely not accept it. If Rebellion will definitely tie down the Song Dynasty’s many troops and delay the important task of destroying Xixia and recovering the sixteen states of Yanyun.”

"Having said that, anyone who starts from the chieftain system will definitely cause the southwestern tribes to be left behind, and it will become a disaster in the future!" Zhang Dun hit the nail on the head.

The New Party responded one after another and seized on the shortcomings of the chieftain system.

Fan Chunli shook his head and said: "You and I both know that the chieftain system is as harmful as schistosomiasis, but no one likes parasites, not even the patients themselves. Now the chieftain system only appeases the various departments in the southwest, allowing them to stay in their ways and become scattered, which will lead to great disasters in the future. When the Song Dynasty defeated Liao and Xia, it freed up its hands, and the shortcomings of the chieftain system must have been revealed."

"The people in the southwest will definitely hate the chieftain as much as the Tubo serfs hate the Tibetan lords. At that time, the court can take advantage of the situation to implement the Tibetan policy and make the people in the southwest completely return to their hearts. Finally, it is logical to send out exiled officials to govern the southwest. If they directly dispatch outposted officials to govern the southwest The various ministries, firstly, have no foundation, and secondly, the terrain in the southwest is special, so I’m afraid it can only be counterproductive.”

All the officials couldn't help but remain silent. Before this, everyone thought that sending officials to exile was the best policy, the chieftain system was the worst policy, and copying the Tubo policy was the worst policy.

However, after Fan Chunli interpreted Fan Zheng's middle strategy, all the officials were surprised to find that the chieftain system was the best strategy, copying the Tubo strategy was the middle strategy, and directly sending officials to govern the southwest was the worst strategy. The difference was simply astonishing. It's incredible.

"But if this happens, there will be a battle in the southwest." Yang Wei frowned.

As a representative of the old party, Yang Wei had a natural aversion to war. Who knew that the Song Dynasty promulgated the chieftain system. If he tried to abolish it in the future, he would be rebelled by the chieftains, and there would be a war in the southwest.

The other officials could not help but hesitate.

Fan Chunli snorted: "By then, the Song Dynasty has defeated Liao Xia and has no rivals in the world. How can it still be afraid of the scattered southwest tribes? Besides, if the southwest tribes do not rebel, how will the Song Dynasty suppress the rebellion? There is reason to move to the southwest. Common people, let the Song people occupy the majority in the southwest.”

"hiss!"

Suddenly, all the officials couldn't help but take a breath of cold air and looked at Fan Chunli in shock.

"This is an evil recipe!"

After Fan Chunli's interpretation, all the officials were shocked. They did not expect that Fan Zheng's chieftain system was so evil. Not only did he use the chieftain system as a conspiracy to let the Song Dynasty gain a foothold in the southwest, but he also found a perfect way for the Song Dynasty to interfere in the southwest in the future. Excuse.

"I am amazed by the evil prescriptions of the evil doctor Fan Zheng!"

Su Song couldn't help but sigh.

Although this approach has some evil charms, it is of great benefit to the Song Dynasty. Not only does it take into account the immediate interests, but it also lays the groundwork for the Song Dynasty to control the southwest in the future.

"Let the officials decide!"

After all the officials argued for a while, they bowed to Zhao Xu.

Zhao Xu looked around and solemnly said: "Send an order to Dali, govern Dali according to Fan Zheng's policy, enfeoff all the southwest tribes as chieftains, reorganize the Xiang soldiers into a construction corps, and immigrate to the Shanchan Prefecture area of ​​Dali City."

Dali City and Shanchan Prefecture are the essence of the southwest and the place with the richest products. As long as the Song people control these two places and connect them together, assisting the chieftain system, it will be enough to stabilize the southwest.

"The officials are wise!"

All the officials praised him one after another.

Zhang Dun couldn't help but sigh. He originally thought that this time the court would definitely choose Zeng Bu's recipe, but he didn't expect that the evil doctor Fan Zheng would once again make a comeback and conquer all the court officials with the chieftain system that everyone thought was full of loopholes. Even the most obvious shortcomings have become a foreshadowing for future interference in various ministries in the southwest.

If Fan Zheng had known about the controversy in the imperial court, he would probably have been stunned. He really didn't expect so much from the conscience of heaven and earth. It was because his father's interpretation was too perfect.

..............................

As the court decision was made, the officials dispersed one after another. At the same time, news about the Battle of Dali also spread in Kaifeng City.

"The evil doctor Fan Zheng used this strange plan twice!"

"Cross Cangshan Mountain and attack Dali City by surprise!"

"The evil doctor Fan Zheng is invincible! He really deserves his reputation!"

........................

In Kaifeng City, countless people heard about Fan Zheng's second plan to help others, and they couldn't help but feel like nectar dripping from their chests about his strange plan to cross Cangshan Mountain.

Although the first conspiracy was a strange one, it could still be understood. However, it was infinitely amplified by Fan Zheng's evil plan of using human beings as locusts, and he actually attacked the city of Dali in one fell swoop.

However, facing the powerful passes such as Longshou Pass and Longwei Pass, the evil doctor Fan Zheng made his second plan to directly cross Cangshan Mountain and attack Dali City.
