[Comprehensive] Feasibility report on the restoration of the country

Duan Yu's innocence is pure and innocent in nature, just like a camellia plant carefully watered by a gardener, it is gorgeous, colorful and beautiful.However, after all, there has been no wind and rain, and although he has an extraordinary bearing, he lacks a bit of tenacity.With his affectionate and kind-hearted character, if he were to go through life and death for a woman, it would be like a mountain of swords and seas of fire; but if he were to make plans for state affairs, it would be beyond his ability.In the final analysis, it only takes a kind and righteous person to be hot-headed to become a concubine in anger, but politics is really a job that only cold-blooded, ruthless, tolerant and even despicable people can do.

After meeting Duan Zhengchun, Duan Yu was at a loss as to what to do, he didn't know how to resolve the immediate crisis.Fortunately, he was the emperor of the Dali Kingdom after all, and not long after arriving in Bianjing with Duan Zhengchun's women and daughters, Gao Shengtai sent a team of hundreds of envoys to chase after him.Most of the [-]-member emissary team are powerful members of the Dali Kingdom, who are not only familiar with government affairs, but also have a deep understanding of the way of political struggle.Although Duan Yu had always been afraid of Gao Shengtai's power since he succeeded to the throne, he was also relieved to see these courtiers at this time.Therefore, as soon as these courtiers arrived, Duan Yu quickly accepted advice, and the envoys were allowed to negotiate with Song Dynasty on his behalf.

Since the founding of the Song Dynasty, the Dali Kingdom has always treated the emperor like a rite, and the Song Dynasty has also treated the Dali Kingdom with courtesy.The Dali envoy originally thought that the so-called surrender was just an excuse for the Song Dynasty to ask for more tribute from foreign vassals after the destruction of the Xia Kingdom. Difficult to change.Because Duan Yu would rather die than deny Duan Zhengchun, now he seems to have only one way to keep his father and the throne: enter the Ministry of Rites and take Duan Zhengchun away by force, and then immediately return to Dali Kingdom to break off diplomatic relations with Song Dynasty and declare war.

So, how much is the outcome of this war?

Let's look at a few sets of data.

The land area of ​​Dali Kingdom is less than one tenth of that of Song Dynasty, and its population is less than one percent of that of Song Dynasty.Just because the Dali Kingdom has always placed more emphasis on culture than military, the number of regular troops owned by the country is less than 20, and the weapons used are still common cold weapons such as knives and arrows.In the Song Dynasty, since Zong Ze was promoted to the supervisor of military weapons, the production of flintlock guns in the Song Dynasty has reached [-] per day, and the production of artillery is one gun every ten days.

Such a desperate comparison of strength has completely humiliated the Dali Kingdom.

"Your Majesty, the climate in Dali is completely different from that of the Central Plains. Most of the Han people are not acclimatized when they come. What's more, there are many mountains in our country that are easy to defend and difficult to attack. The leaders of various ethnic groups will not accept the Han people. We may not have a chance of winning!" Seeing Duan Yu, the envoy of Dali was discouraged and depressed. , hurriedly stepped forward to persuade.

Duan Yu only shook his head and sighed when he heard the words. "Xia State is a hundred times more barbaric than Dali. Isn't it wiped out now? Our soldiers in Dali are no match for the flintlock guns and cannons of the Song Dynasty. Going to war will only hurt the people." The envoy waited to persuade, but Duan Yu had already got up. road. "Daddy raised me and raised me, so I absolutely have to recognize Daddy! But if Dali recognizes Daddy, Da Song will take the title of righteousness. If Dali doesn't follow, Song's army will go south for a while, who can resist?... Let's talk about it , It’s just a mere throne. I heard that after Xia Guoping was destroyed, the Emperor of the Song Dynasty regarded the people of Dangxiang as Han people. Now that I, Dali, take the initiative to surrender, I think the Emperor of the Song Dynasty will not embarrass the people of Dali.”

Duan Yu has a kind heart, so he had expected this choice, but he put Gao Shengtai on fire.The Duan clan's royal family has long been evaded by the Gao clan, and the Dali government has nothing to do with it.As far as Duan Yu is concerned, instead of staying in Dali and being a puppet emperor who will be forced to become a monk by powerful officials at some point, perhaps it is really a step back to become a prince after making great contributions to the Song Dynasty.As for the poisonous poison, Duan Yu's advanced martial arts has long been invulnerable to all poisons, so what can he do?But that was not the case for Gao Shengtai, as long as Duan Yu agreed to join him, the Song Dynasty court would have to take his "culprit" head as a sacrificial flag, perhaps destroying his entire clan.

The leader of the emissary who talked to Duan Yu was originally under Gao Shengtai's command. Hearing Duan Yu's words, he immediately became very anxious and urged: "Your Majesty, the Dali Kingdom has lasted for more than ten generations, and it must not be destroyed just like this!"

But Duan Yu is a man who firmly believes in Buddhism and does not love fame and fortune, but he remains unmoved. "The general trend of the world, if united for a long time, it will be divided, and if it is divided for a long time, it will be united. This is the reincarnation of heaven, how can the Dali Kingdom escape?" After finishing speaking, he ignored the persuading courtiers, and went straight to the bedroom with his hands behind his back.

As soon as Duan Yu left, Dao Baifeng followed suit.All she cared about was Duan Zhengchun's life and death, and she had no time to worry about whether or not Dali would be attached to him.As for Qin Hongmian and Gan Baobao, their thoughts were exactly the same as Dao Baifeng's, and they even thought that as long as Dali Kingdom was gone, Duan Zhengchun would be able to give up Dao Baifeng and live together with him.

Zhong Ling is romantic by nature, and he doesn't care about the Dali Kingdom.Only Mu Wanqing was arrogant by nature and loved Duan Yu, seeing Duan Yu encountering a problem, he couldn't help being furious, he just slapped the armrest of the seat and said ruthlessly, "Are you going to be at the mercy of others like this?"

The emissary was worried that there was nothing he could do, seeing Mu Wanqing's attack, he hurriedly whispered: "Actually, it's not impossible..."

"What way?" Mu Wanqing asked immediately.

The envoy looked around and whispered in Mu Wanqing's ear: "I have been here for a long time, and I have also inquired about some news. The current Prime Minister of the Song Dynasty, Murong Fu, has monopolized power and said nothing. Host. However, he has always been at odds with the officials of the Great Song Dynasty. As long as he dies, the officials of the Great Song Dynasty will definitely change their minds." Although the Duan royal family is powerless in state affairs, they have practiced martial arts for generations.After Murong Fu was killed, the emissary was not sure whether the officials of the Song Dynasty would change their minds.He only knew that once the prime minister died, the Song court would be in chaos for a period of time, and Dali would have a chance to breathe.Even if the real culprit of the murder is finally found out, if the Song Dynasty officials want to question the crime, they only need to throw Duan Yu and his son as scapegoats.

Naturally, Mu Wanqing knew nothing about the emissary's treacherous thoughts, but gritted her teeth fiercely after he left.

The night was dark, and the time had come to Haishi, and most of the people in Bianjing City had fallen asleep.However, the study room of Murong Mansion was still lit, and many civil servants and military generals sat around to listen to the Prime Minister's arrangement of government affairs.

"The matter of the replacement of the flintlock by the imperial guards has already been refuted by the officials." Murong Fu lowered his head and glanced at the documents on the case, and said slowly. "The 30 flintlock guns will be allocated to the frontier soldiers first."

Only because of the misfortune of the feudal towns at the end of the Tang Dynasty, since the establishment of the Song Dynasty, lessons have been learned, and the army has followed the policy of strong stems and weak branches. There are 50 million soldiers in the Imperial Army stationed in the capital, which is far more than the Forbidden Army stationed in the border.However, as time went on, these forbidden soldiers stationed in the capital lacked the training of battle formation, and their combat effectiveness was already extremely low, but they were just passable-looking ones.Therefore, Zong Ze heaved a sigh of relief when he heard Murong Fu's arrangement, and said repeatedly: "That's good, that's good! In this way, the pressure on the military supervision next year will be much less!" In his opinion Come on, instead of letting the imperial guards hold these flintlock guns as decorations, it is better to allocate the place in order to make contributions.

But it was the kind teacher who came to Beijing to celebrate Zhao Xu's new year and asked curiously: "Why don't the officials allow it?"

Murong Fu sneered, and slowly said: "He is afraid that someone will shoot him sniper in the dark." After saying this, everyone's expressions changed, only Murong Fu said again. "He can't trust civil servants, generals, and the imperial guards who stand by his side every day. If he becomes suspicious like this, he is doomed to be unable to do anything!"

Murong Fu's words were even more thorough, and everyone couldn't help being silent for a while.

After a long time, Su Zhefang, the right chancellor, said, "In ten days' time, the Zhengdan dynasty will come. How will we deal with the matter of Dali's annexation?"

"If God doesn't take it, you will be blamed instead!" Murong Fu said decisively, "At the latest in March next year, the Dali Kingdom must formally submit the letter of credence, belong to the Song Dynasty, and divide Yunnan and Guizhou; After completing the land reform, the government will replace the patriarchs of the various ethnic groups to handle local government affairs." Speaking of this, he turned his attention to the teaching of Zhongshi. "Brother Zhong, I would like to recommend you and Qu Zhen as appeasement envoys to guard the two roads. There are various ethnic groups in Dali, and the wind is different for ten miles, and the customs are different for hundreds of miles. You should respect their customs, but you must also respect their customs. Our rules. How to grasp the scale, you can figure it out yourself."

After the destruction of the Xia Kingdom, Zhong Shidao was awarded the title of Captain of Qingche for his meritorious service, and he was awarded the rank of fourth-rank official.Although the post of Economic and Strategic Conciliator is a dispatch officer, he has jumped from a lieutenant general in the army to the commander in chief of the Chinese army in charge of the tiger talisman.But Zhong Shidao was not very excited after hearing this arrangement, instead he said anxiously: "Isn't it going to fight Khitan? Why are you transferred me away at this juncture?"

"Who told you that I was going to fight the Khitan?" Murong Fu couldn't help laughing, "The so-called emperor who fought the first battle, I will not lightly start the war with the Khitan until the reform of the bureaucracy is completed. Therefore, it is expected that in at least five years, only Dali There is a battle. Master Zhong said, are you going or not?"

"Go, go!" Zhong Shidao immediately replied firmly with a smile all over his face. "The only lower officials to follow are Sir Murong!"

Murong Fu gave him an annoyed look, but didn't say anything.

This was their last topic for tonight. Seeing that Master Zhong had no objection, everyone closed the documents in front of them one after another.After a while, Abi brought a lot of late-night snacks.

Entering the chat time, Murong Fu is no longer the center of the topic.Zhong Shidao only came back once a year, obviously everyone cared more about him than Murong Fu.Murong Fu didn't think he was disobedient either, he talked about government affairs for a long time, his mouth was dry and his energy was weak, he drank two bowls of ginseng tea in a row to calm down.

But it was the kind of teacher who had said the customs of this journey, and suddenly frowned slightly. "Murong, when I came back this time, I heard some rumors on the way. Many rotten scholars are quite dissatisfied with your domination of the government, you have to be careful!"

"Brother Zhong's words reminded me!" After Zhong Shidao said, Chao Buzhi also echoed. "Mingshi, there has also been a change in "Pucheng Wind and Rain" recently. Taking advantage of the topic of Dali's attachment, Zhang Dun published several issues in a row introducing the origin of alien races. In the issue published yesterday, it was mentioned that the Murong family is a descendant of the Xianbei ethnic group. I think What he said inside and outside the words is not of my race, so his heart must be different!"

As soon as Chao Buzhi's words fell, Murong Fu's eyebrows twitched, and he said in a deep voice: "Zhang Dun's move is to split the family and the country, and he must not be tolerated! Senior Brother Chao, I suggest you set up a new page in the "Bianjing Times". Let’s talk about what China is.”

"What is Huaxia?" Chao Bu asked subconsciously.

"The beauty of clothes, the prosperity of etiquette, the richness of articles, the essence of skills, and the way of loyalty and bravery, Huaxia should not be blood, surname, or land, but a belief, a culture, and an identity. Regardless of appearance or clothing, as long as it is People who abide by our Chinese etiquette, learn our Chinese grammar, and follow our Chinese loyalty are blood relatives of the same family in China!" Murong Fu said calmly, "Brother Chao, seize this point to break Zhang Dun's argument, and you must not let it go. Let him destroy my overall prosperity because of his own prejudice!"

Murong Fu was so broad-minded, everyone in the hall applauded in unison.Those who can sit together with Murong Fu to discuss political affairs are all talented people of the moment. As soon as they heard Murong Fu's proposition, they realized that as long as this interpretation of "China" becomes the mainstream of society, all foreign races who admire the Song culture will not be able to do so. Consciously integrate into Song Dynasty and take pride in being a member of Huaxia.At that time, the will of the people will truly be regarded as the king's land under the whole world.

Seeing that among all the people in the hall, only Murong Fu Baodi had the thickest complexion and the worst expression, he couldn't help saying angrily: "You... I want you to take care of your health every year, but you are getting sicker and weaker every year! Is Xue Muhua good or bad?"

"Medicine can cure illnesses, Buddhas have destiny. My body, I know it myself." Murong Fu just smiled wryly.Xue Muhua has advised him several times to abolish his martial arts and remove the poison in his body.It was Murong Fu himself who couldn't make up his mind, even though he didn't know what's the use of keeping his martial arts?

When it comes to this topic, everyone's heart is heavy.Seeing that Murong Fu's complexion was really bad, everyone in the hall left quickly, not wanting to disturb Murong Fu's rest time.

As soon as everyone left, Abi immediately stepped forward and said, "The hot water is ready, you can wash up and settle down earlier, my lord!"

"Okay!" Murong Fu propped up the table casually and tried to stand up, but he got up too hastily and his eyes were dark.

"My lord, be careful!" Seeing this, Abi hurried forward to help her.As soon as she held Murong Fu's palm, she felt that Murong Fu's fingers were as cold as icicles.Looking at the brazier in the room and the fur on Murong Fu's body, Abi's eyes couldn't help but warm up. "My lord, follow Dr. Xue's wishes!"

Murong Fu stood with his hands on the table for a while before he could see everything in front of him clearly. "Let me think again..."

"My lord!" Abi called out disapprovingly. She was anxious and afraid, and couldn't help but shed tears. "As long as you have Mount Tai and a flintlock, you can protect your son well. Why is your son still so stubborn?"

Murong Fu didn't listen, just smiled and stroked Abi's cheek. "What's the matter? My son is fine, why are you crying?"

Unexpectedly, before the fingertips touched Abi's cheek, someone broke open the window of the study room, and a silver sword light came towards Murong Fu with a scolding sound. "Dog thief, look at the sword!"

Facing the sword's edge that was as cold as water, at this moment, perhaps there is only one word that can describe Murong Fu's feeling: Damn it!

The author has something to say:

Murong Fu: Who said martial arts are useless?Stand up for me!

Xue Muhua: Why didn't you say that you are not popular!
