Chapter 700: Dali is attached
|||->-> Chapter 700 Dali is attached
Although Dali believes in Buddhism and does not advocate martial arts, due to the large number of races and tribes, although there are no major conflicts, small conflicts continue to occur, so it is not easy to manage. In order to rule this place effectively, Shi Bin could only choose to send Gao Zhixing as a lobbyist. It would be foolish to subdue one place at a time by force.
"Dashuai, how many people do you think Gao Zhixing can convince to come to us this time?" Xu Feng asked.
"If he wants to continue to maintain the Gao family's status in Dali, there should be no less." Shi Bin said, "After all, if the king of Nanzhao County is in vain, I am afraid that it will also be looked down upon." What's more, the Duan clan is coming back, he doesn't have to attract more supporters, how can he confront the Duan clan? ”
"Handsome and wise. However, the Duan clan has been avoiding trouble outside the country since the fall of Dali, even if ordinary people still agree that they are orthodox, those big clans may not agree. Is the Duan family too good to fight the Gao family? Will it be impossible to fight, so that the Gao family is still the dominant family in Dali? Xu Feng asked with some concern.
Knowing that Xu Feng is a person with a very strong sense of responsibility and a very loyal person, Shi Bin didn't think he was worrying about it when he heard his words, but was very happy and deeply grateful.
"Xu Feng, you don't have to worry too much. Since the Duan clan said that they want to return to the country, they must be prepared. If you shout for the restoration of the country without a little certainty, wouldn't it be a humiliation for yourself? Even if I really can't fight, I can't let the Gao family dominate, of course, there must be checks and balances, and the best choice for this is the Duan family, just help them. Let the Duan clan and the Gao family each lead their respective forces against each other. Shi Bin smiled.
Seeing that Shi Bin had already taken these into account, Xu Feng was relieved. I have already thought about how to deal with the relationship between the big clans, and the next thing is to think about how to make the people of Dali truly surrender to the Great Song Dynasty.
After a while, Xu Feng said: "Dashuai, I have an idea of my humble position..."
"Say."
"Dashuai should also promote the official dialect of the Great Song Dynasty and my Chinese culture in Dali. Otherwise, even if this Dali becomes the Yunnan Road and Guizhou Road of the Great Song Dynasty, it will not really become my Great Song people. ”
"Reasonably, if you hadn't reminded me, I would have almost forgotten about this important event. Everything is done according to the rules of the Hexi Corridor and Liaoning. Let the Duan family and the Gao family each take charge of the way. If possible, it is best to make their relationship more complicated, and the more complex the relationship with each other, the better. Shi Bin said very seriously.
Speaking of this, Shi Bin felt a little troublesome, because if it became two big interest groups, I am afraid that things would not be very complicated, and it should be multiple interest groups.
"Call Duan Xing, I have something to ask him."
After a while, Duan Xing came. He was very well-behaved in front of Shi Bin, not at all like a member of the royal family, but like a servant.
"Duan Xing, after this battle, the Gao family and his accomplices should have been beaten. However, I believe that there are still the great tribes who are watching, who are just cautious, but not really surrendering. Shi Bin said.
"What the adults say is true, Dali is not only strong in my Duan family and the Gao family, but also the Dong family and the Yang family. Dong Jialuo, the ancestor of the Dong family, was the founder of the Dali Kingdom, while the Yang family was a rising star, and its ancestor Yang Yizhen also usurped power. However, the Yang family is very powerful, so it cannot be completely wiped out. Duan Xing replied.
Hearing that there were two other families that could compete with the Duan family and the Gao family, Shi Bin was very happy in his heart. It couldn't have been better to dismember Dali into four pieces. It's just that this kind of joy can't be expressed, Shi Binyi
With a sad face, he said, "You mean that there are still two families that can fight against you?" And they may not surrender to my Great Song? ”
In fact, he had already guessed Shi Bin's intention to ask, how could Duan Xing, who was born in the royal family, not know? But now that the throne and power are retained, Duan Xing does not intend to deceive Shi Bin. He was afraid that he would lose everything by deceiving again.
"Yes, although the Dong family and the Yang family are not as powerful as my Duan family and the Gao family, they are not much different. Therefore, if you want to rule Dali more effectively, you must make these two families loyal to you as well. Otherwise, Dali will still not be yours. ”
Shi Bin was quite satisfied with Duan Xing's answer, this time he spoke very realistically, obviously not playing tricks.
"Then tell me, how to subdue the Dong family and the Yang family? Do you directly persuade them to submit to the Great Song Dynasty or fight a battle first? Shi Bin asked.
"Naturally, we have to fight first. Through this battle, sharpen their sharpness, let them know the greatness of adults, and surrender from the bottom of their hearts. If you are not convinced, you will be reversed after a long time. However, Duan Xing also asked the adults not to massacre them and allowed them to surrender. ”
Duan Xing's words surprised Shi Bin, he thought that Duan Xing would ask Shi Bin to vigorously weaken the Dong family and the Yang family, but he didn't expect to express a completely opposite meaning.
"Duan Xing, your words surprised Ben Shuai. In the previous battle, I didn't see you come to ask me to accept the surrender of the Gao family, why do you want me to accept the surrender of the Dong family and the Yang family in advance now? Shi Bin asked with a smile.
"Dashuai, the Gao family is absolutely innocent of gathering troops to fight against the Great Song Heavenly Soldiers, and I don't think Dashuai will kill them all, so I don't dissuade them. This dissuasion is because of your previous battle with the Gao family. Duan Xing believes that you have already seen Gao Zhixing raise the white flag, but the marshal still ordered to attack instead of accepting surrender, which made Duan Xing feel uneasy, so the villain had this dissuasion. Duan Xing said very sincerely.
"It seems that the Gao family may not be able to convince the Dong family and the Yang family to submit to me?"
After a pause, Duan Xing said with certainty: "There is no such possibility. The Gao family is not much stronger than the Dong family and the Yang family. They wouldn't want to have a Gao family in their relationship with Dashuai. ”
Knowing that Shi Bin's question was finished, Duan Xing retreated very consciously. Shi Bin didn't like war, but from Duan Xing's words, he knew that these two battles had to be fought. So he ordered the troops to march and attack the Dong family's territory first.
Dali is not big, and it took only five days to enter the territory of the Dong family. It's different from entering Gao's territory. As soon as I entered here, I felt a sense of solemnity. Although there were not many soldiers stationed there, it was clearly in a state of high tension and ready to go to war.
"Xu Feng, this Dong family also has some meaning. The Gao family is a shrinking line of defense and fighting me with all their might. What is he going to do, to fight a guerrilla war in the mountains with me? In that case, I really can't take it. Shi Bin smiled.
Such an abnormal phenomenon really made Xu Feng incomprehensible. The Dong family did not shrink the defense line but left troops everywhere, which is really strange. Therefore, Xu Feng did not answer, but just frowned. Of course, he couldn't stop because of a few scattered soldiers, Shi Bin ordered the troops to continue to advance until they saw the Dong family's army. is not bad with Duan Xing, the Dong family is weaker than the Gao family. Their army was less than eight thousand people. Even if you add the scattered sergeants you saw along the way, the total would not exceed nine thousand.
As soon as the fight began, the situation was one-sided. In less than an hour, the Dong family's main formation dispersed. This situation made Shi Bin very surprised and very suspicious. The Dong family is obviously also carefully prepared for this battle, although the total number of troops is not as large as the Gao family, but most of them are their own horses, and they should never be dispersed so quickly.
The more I looked at it, the more I felt that something was wrong. Suddenly, Xu Feng's voice came from his ears: "Dashuai, they are not defeated, but they have rushed into the mountains and forests to engage in mountain guerrilla warfare with us!" ”
After hearing Xu Feng's warning, Shi Bin suddenly woke up and immediately ordered all the troops to press up and block all the roads into the mountain. Strive to encircle and annihilate the Dong family's army here.
Since the coach was Shi Bin, the forbidden troops of the Great Song Dynasty who came with them also broke out with extraordinary combat effectiveness. In this battle, only half of the Dong family's 8,000 men and horses remained. Seeing that the situation was not good, the head of the Dong family immediately raised a white flag and surrendered.
At the surrender ceremony, Shi Bin saw a middle-aged man who was a little depressed but obviously very noble, so he walked over and asked, "You are Dong Jialuo, the head of the Dong family?" ”
"Yes. I am Dong Jialuo. What did Shi Dashuai want to ask? ”
"Ben Shuai is just curious who came up with such a clever style of play. If I hadn't discovered it early and killed half of you, once you got into the mountains and forests, I am afraid I would never have been at peace. Shi Bin smiled.
Dong Jialuo didn't speak, and the people of the Dong family present didn't speak. But there were still a few pairs of eyes looking at Dong Jialuo.
"Dong Jialuo, it seems that you are the one who came up with this clever plan. I don't know, right? ”
"Yes, Shi Dashuai. If you want to kill you, please kill me. Now my Dong family is willing to surrender to the Great Song Dynasty, so please be kind to my people. ”
Shi Bin suddenly laughed and said, "Dong Jialuo, why did I kill you? You are guilty of resisting my Great Song army, but fortunately, there is no way to go to the dark, and it is also meritorious to be able to get lost in time. If the merits and demerits are offset, they will naturally not kill you. As long as you obey the rule of my Great Song Dynasty, everything is easy to say. ”
Most of them already knew that the Duan family and the Gao family secretly expressed their allegiance to Shi Bin, and Dong Jialuo also said very clearly: "Dong Jialuo was defeated by Shi Dashuai, not by the Great Song Dynasty, so my Dong family only obeys Shi Daren's dispatch." ”
Shi Bin was not surprised by this situation, but he was still very happy and expressed his willingness to sponsor Dong Jialuo as the Marquis of Lijiang. Dong Jialuo was overjoyed when he heard Shi Bin's promise, and immediately expressed his willingness to lead the horse for Shi Bin again.
After calming the hidden worries of the Dong family, the next is the weakest Yang family, who knows that the Yang family is more cunning than the Dong family. For ten days in a row, apart from holding the city and fighting guerrillas in the mountains and forests, they never had any head-on conflict with Shi Bin's army.
Shi Bin is in the light, the Yang family is in the dark, and being constantly harassed by such constant attacks, it won't be long before the morale of Shi Bin's army will fall to the bottom, and if he can't capture the city, he will eventually have to retreat. Of course, such a situation will not be allowed, not to mention how can a few small cities stop Shi Bin? Shi Bin, who was enraged, was heartbroken, and ordered his subordinates to make a return cannon.
Among the mountains and forests, there are towering trees everywhere, and fifteen return cannons were built within ten days. There are also countless boulders here, and as soon as the fight begins, a city will become a ruin in less than half an hour. There were countless dead and wounded in the city, and there were constant wailings.
Unable to bear the massacre, Shi Bin asked his subordinates to send a letter to the Yang family to persuade them to surrender. and warned that if he did not surrender, all the cities of the Yang family would end up like this.
didn't expect Shi Bin to have such an 'artifact', and the Yang family was shocked, even if they were unwilling, they could only surrender. After all, no one wants to give up a life of fine clothes and food to become a despised minion. Because of being enraged, Shi Bin did not promise the Yang family a high title, but only gave him a Guiyang uncle. This made the Yang family regret it, but they could only accept the reality, and like the Duan family, the Gao family, and the Dong family, they said that they would only follow Shi Bin and not the Great Song Dynasty.
Since then, the Dali Kingdom has been completely under the command of Shi Bin.
