"Lord Wang, look at what you said, it's good to say that we are forced to come. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info" Duan Zhengxing smiled slightly awkwardly and continued. "Li Chao's ships went to sea, we also know this, Siam is also gathering forces now, but we believe that with our relationship with the prince, the prince will never do this against us Dali."

"You're pretty confident, aren't you?" Zhao Shuo said with a smile.

"Lord Wang, what kind of confidence is this, it is completely a trust in you, Lord Wang. Think back then, the prince said, we established a business alliance, and then the two sides were mutually beneficial, when Dali went south, the prince said that Siam is his own people, we immediately stop the dispute, live in peace! Duan Zhengxing took a few steps closer to Zhao Shuo. In fact, Dali has always regarded the prince as a backer, if there is no prince, how can Dali have today. We in Dali know how to be grateful. ”

"Prince Duan, what do you want to say!" Zhao Shuo scratched his head. "Why am I confused? Dali now occupies Bagan and has opened a window to the Indian Ocean, and according to the current momentum, it is completely possible to do a big job. After a pause, Zhao Shuo said again. It's just that Dali should have been going south to Bagan for some days, and now the main army is still gathering in Bagan and has not continued to act, how to say this, it is also a little ......"

Zhao Shuo shook his head slightly. He got the news that Bagan had long been occupied by Dali. But the recent news is true that most of Dali's army has been stationed in Bagan, and there is no intention of continuing the fight at all.

This made Zhao Shuo puzzled. Dali did everything possible to obtain access to the sea, and opened up the Indian Ocean one step ahead of Zhao Shuo and Da Song.

But Dali actually chose to 'rest on the spot' after taking Bagan, no matter how you look at it, it's a bad move.

Emperor Duan Zhengxing of Dali still wants the crown prince Duan Zhengxing, this is not a fool, they should all know the strategic value of the Indian Ocean.

Then, even if they knew, they chose the way they were now.

This point made Zhao Shuo even more puzzled.

"Hehe......" Facing Zhao Shuo, Duan Zhengxing only had a wry smile at the moment.

Occupying Bagan and opening up the sea to the sea, Duan Zhengxing certainly knew what it meant. But Bagan itself is a big country, and its land area is on par with Dali. Dali didn't have the big killing weapons in Zhao Shuo's hands, so although the army's combat effectiveness was stronger than Bagan's, it was not invincible.

Because of this, Dali raised the whole army and finally took Bagan, but Bagan's army was not completely wiped out. These armies did not confront the Dali soldiers head-on, but scattered in all directions, occupied the hills, and carried out continuous harassment and attacks on the Dali army.

Dali did not have an absolute advantage, and as soon as the Bagan army did this, Dali's army could only gather together to prevent a sneak attack.

In order to deal with Bagan's harassment, Duan Zhengxing thought of many ways, such as going to Siam and discussing with Li Jun to see if he could get some of Zhao Shuo's advanced weapons from Li Jun. After all, Li Jun's Siam was the nominal land of Zhao Shuo.

However, Li Junyi was far away from Zhao Shuo's control area, and he had fewer weapons in his hand, and these weapons were not even enough for self-protection, so it was impossible to sell them to Dali.

Then, after learning that Shu had been assigned to who to look for, Duan Zhengxing sent people to Shu to see if he could buy weapons from Shu.

But this time, he was disappointed again. In the face of Dali's envoys, Shu officials made it clear that all kinds of weapons were not for sale, and they had no right to sell them without Zhao Shuo's consent.

Duan Zhengxing originally wanted to go to Chang'an to discuss with Zhao Shuo, after all, the two sides have been trading for so long, and it should be reasonable to sell some military supplies.

But at this time, Zhao Shuo actually went north to rescue Liaodi.

Duan Zhengxing also thought about buying from Da Song, but on Da Song's side, he still touched his nose. According to insiders, a large part of the small cannonballs and weapons of the Great Song Dynasty were sold to Mongolia, which continued to move westward.

Duan Zhengxing was helpless, and after returning to Dali, another news came, Zhao Shuo leased the coastal port to Western Xia, and then the Great Song Dynasty and Zhao Shuo discussed it, and Zhao Shuo, the Great Song Dynasty and the Li Dynasty decided to form a joint fleet and go south to carve up the weak and small countries.

Then, Mayi, Uri, Angkor, and Sriwijaya were attacked, followed by the deployment of the Li Dynasty's army, and Siam was also rearmed.

In this case, Duan Zhengxing couldn't think of any other way to keep Dali except for coming to see Zhao Shuo.

Whether it is Da Song or Zhao Shuo, it is not something that Dali can offend. If the two sides are happy and Dali is counted in the ranks that can be divided, then Dali's situation can only be described as precarious.

"Haha......" Different from Duan Zhengxing's wry smile, Zhao Shuo laughed heartily. Brother Duan, you have played with me. That's not a good thing! ”

As soon as Zhao Shuo said this, Duan Zhengxing pondered for a long time, and in desperation, he gritted his teeth and saluted. "Lord Wang, since you have said so, then I will speak up. This time, I actually beg you to let it go. ”

Subsequently, Duan Zhengxing told Zhao Shuo everything without reservation, especially the fact that he wanted to buy weapons from Zhao Shuo several times, but the results were all failures, which he focused on describing.

"So, Dali hasn't occupied Bagan yet?" Zhao Shuo frowned.

This is a big deal, but he doesn't even know about this kind of big thing. The news that came back to Chang'an unanimously said that Dali had taken Bagan, had access to the sea, and opened up the Indian Ocean.

But now that we look at it, Dali only captured Bagan, and it was still early before the occupation. If what Duan Zhengxing said is true, Dali is in Bagan, and it shouldn't be long before he has to be forced to withdraw his troops.

"Lord Wang, at this time, I dare to talk nonsense with you, if I hadn't been dragged by Bagan, we wouldn't have stationed the army in Bagan all the time!" Duan Zhengxing was also helpless at the moment. "You have to know that this is the result, this Bagan, we might as well not fight!"

Zhao Shuo took a deep breath and calmed himself down again. "Brother Duan, then why are you looking for me this time?"

"Lord Wang, I'm wondering, can our Dali also be incorporated into your control area!" Duan Zhengyan asked tentatively. "As for military power, we don't want it, diplomacy, it's all up to the prince, as long as the prince can guarantee the status of our royal family, everything else is up to the prince, including the appointment and dismissal of officials......"

Duan Zhengxing finished speaking, and Zhao Shuo was stunned. This is indeed a wise choice for Dali, but this wise choice is indeed something that Zhao Shuo did not expect.
