There was a loud bang, as if the thunder that existed only in the sky, appeared on the earth.

The patriarchs, nobles, and warriors of nearly 100 tribes in the mountains of the southwest had become familiar with such sounds in the months they had been fighting side by side with the Song Dynasty officials and troops.

From the panic at the beginning, he was like a god, to now he is as ordinary and silent.

There were even a few clever tribal chiefs, after seeing the power of artillery, managed to find out how it worked, and even the composition of gunpowder, and started the idea of how to make their own craftsmen build this weapon - there is no shortage of craftsmen in the larger tribes, and there are not no craftsmen who can cast bells, and the raw materials for gunpowder are not absent in the southwest. After it was built, it was placed in its own village, and it also had a sharp weapon to protect the family.

But today, for the first time, the panic and awe of the roar of the artillery befell them again.

The people from the mountains could gradually become untouched by the gunpowder weapons of the Song army, but they could not ignore the blood flowers blooming in front of the muzzles of the guns.

The muzzles of the five guns were filled with smoke, and the gunners were busy cleaning the muzzles and chambers, and the death row prisoners who had been tied to the muzzles of the guns had been reduced to minced flesh all over the ground. The wreckage on the ground had not yet been cleaned up, and a new batch had been pulled up.

The artillery couldn't stop roaring, and blood filled the execution ground, but Kumamoto was laughing loudly, "You say this is a good way, right?" ”

Zhao Long, who was standing aside, nodded, also smiling: "Indeed." ”

In the scene of the Song army commander laughing loudly. The scene is hundreds of pale and mouth-covered chiefs of the Tibetan people.

Looking at Kumamoto and Zhao Long, their eyes were full of fear, those objects that had turned into blood and flesh were originally their companions, and they were ordered to go south together, competing with each other for merit and loot. The drunkenness for the victory, the clamor for the capture, has now vanished.

"Thanks to reading the newspaper. Such an easy-to-use method, thanks to the puppet emperor who can think of it, the so-called pushing through the old and bringing forth the new, nothing more than that, nothing more than that! ”

How did Yelu Yixin, the puppet emperor of Liao, deal with his enemies? His methods spread to the Song Kingdom through various channels, and then they were published in newspapers and spread all over the world.

Originally, it was used as evidence of the cruelty and inhumanity of the puppet emperor, but now it is being used by Kumamoto.

In fact, if you want to talk about harsh punishment, the Great Song Dynasty did not lose to its northern neighbors at all, and extrajudicial punishments such as Ling Chi and beheading have never been broken - in the criminal system, the death penalty is only beheading and hanging, and the rest of the more severe and poisonous punishments are all extrajudicial punishments. In the army, there are especially many extrajudicial punishments, and the civil and military generals of this era have the same idea, if they want to deter the red guys who don't care about killing people and setting fires, the only way to make them feel frightened is to use more brutal means. To deal with the barbarians under his command, there are naturally more means.

It's not just the members of the Fan Department who watched the punishment, but Zhao Long, although they were talking and laughing together, they couldn't help but feel a chill in their hearts.

Only Kumamoto was completely immersed in it, as if he had watched a big show.

He didn't wear armor, nor did he wear official clothes, ordinary daily clothes, and he looked like an old pedant. But after all, he made the Southwest Yi bow his head, and the children of the barbarian family did not dare to cry at night.

'Wenchen...... Wenchen ......'

Those people were like frogs frightened by snakes, Zhao Long looked at them, and felt the same way.

How can any of these world-famous handsome ministers be easy to get along with? Who is soft-hearted? If you underestimate them, you will naturally end up like this.

Zhao Long had seen with his own eyes how Wang Shao had smashed and killed the soldiers who had made good and meritorious deeds, and he also knew how Han Gang made the Jiaozhi people only grow eight toes, and Kumamoto had the same way to tie the Fan people who committed the crime in front of the muzzle of the artillery, and he was really not surprised at all except for a little bit of sadness about the death of a rabbit and a fox.

However, some sympathy quickly dissipated, growing up in the war zone since childhood, Zhao Long has always had the idea of killing the disobedient people as soon as possible, and now he has a little emotion is just that the means are too cruel.

I really want to let the barbarians of the Quartet no longer be a trouble for China. One is to educate, so that all the Yi people envy the civilization of the Central Plains and are willing to accept the rule of the imperial court, and the other is to deter, with brilliant martial arts, before the completion of education, so that the leaders dare not lead their troops to make chaos, which requires the imperial court to invest a lot of manpower and material resources. Therefore, the Great Song Dynasty has always solved the problems on the border in the form of fetters, giving up the pursuit of expanding the territory. Relatively speaking, Zhao Long still prefers the current approach.

"This generation is afraid of power but not virtue, and if they don't beat much, they don't know what their surname is, and it always seems that the court has a request for them. It's time for the big marshal to deal with them, and now it's time to know what to do. ”

Some time ago, in order to let these Tibetan troops cooperate with the official army's operations, the imperial court gave them too lenient conditions.

The children of the tribes in Dali are at their own mercy, and their wealth is also at their mercy, as long as they are willing to send troops to follow the official army to the south to boost the momentum.

Compared with the Guangxi Zhufan Department, which had been tempered by Han Gang for more than a year, the Southwest Yi, which had been suppressed, suddenly relied on by the imperial court to use troops, and such a drastic change inevitably made those leaders of the Tibetan tribe think that the imperial court had to give them benefits because of the embarrassment of the situation.

Since they are indispensable in the Zhilu Dao Imperial Court, there are naturally people who want to get more benefits from Longwangshu. Although the combat effectiveness displayed by the officers and soldiers made them dare not strike a single blow, they inevitably acted arbitrarily and recklessly during their actions.

In order to compete for capture, the tribes privately fought not once or twice; As for the enemy, he immediately notified the officers and soldiers to come to help when he encountered the slightest trace of the enemy, which Kumamoto has always turned a blind to.

But Kumamoto's silence was just waiting for the moment to erupt.

No matter where they are, the Han people are always able to make their lives better. Whether in Dali or among the barbarians around his country, there is no shortage of Han people, and almost all of them have abundant family wealth. At the beginning of the battle to the south, Kumamoto, in the name of the head of the camp, strictly ordered that all the troops should not take the Han captive, but all the captured Han people must be returned to their families, and it was strictly forbidden to take their family property.

At the beginning, every family of the Tibetan tribe honestly obeyed the holy decree, but after a few months, finally someone couldn't help but extend their hand to the wealthy Han people.

And this time, Kumamoto didn't think he didn't see it anymore.

The alternating roar of artillery has exceeded ten rounds, and there is a thick layer of flesh and blood on the ground.

The three clans that committed the crime, the leaders of their clans, as long as they were in the southbound procession, were tied to the execution ground. Yesterday, Kumamoto also wrote a letter and asked people to rush to the rear Huang Shang. Kill them all, and leave no chickens and dogs, this is Kumamoto's plan, he intends to use the blood of thousands of people to emphasize the status of the Han people.

As for the tribes of the three tribes, they were driven to attack the city, and died cleanly under the dragon head city yesterday.

Taking advantage of their sacrifices, a day earlier, Zhao Long led his army to capture the heavily guarded Longshou City.

Longshou City is the most rearmost barrier in the north of the capital of Dali, from the time of construction hundreds of years ago, together with Longwei City, it protects the most core piece of land of the two dynasties of Nanzhao and Dali dynasties on the shore of Erhai Lake.

Longshou City guards the northern part of the capital of Dali, while Longwei City guards its southern part

Even if the center of this piece of land has been moved from the ancient Taihe City to the Yangtho Baa City more than ten miles away, which is now Dali City, the status of Longshou City and Longwei City has not changed.

In the first battle, the northern barrier of the capital of Dali was captured, and a forward was directly stationed in the abandoned Taihe City, the capital of the Southern Zhao Kingdom.

That's why Kumamoto is not afraid of killing, and he must kill people. No matter how decadent Dali's army is, but Dali is a country of a thousand times after all, enjoying the country for a long time, although it is not strong enough to deal with the official army, but it is still confident in dealing with the Tibetan troops who went south.

Kumamoto saw that the sneak attacks of the Dali army were becoming more and more rampant, and the Fan army on his side was often unable to fight hard, so he found a reason to deal with those guys who were not good at foreign warfare but were good at internal fighting - no one wanted to watch the steady victory slip out of their hands.

The Dali army is not weak, several encounters since the beginning of the war, the Dali army has learned the Song army's habitual tactics of breaking the city, as long as the Dali army retreats to the walled city, it will immediately be destroyed by the Song army by unknown means, and then the strong city wall, after the thunderclap-like loud noise, it will become a piece of gravel, there has never been a walled city, can be attacked by the Song army, hold for three days.

Therefore, after the Song army finally crossed the mountains and mountains and came to the core area of Dali, the Dali army began to make targeted arrangements, instead of shrinking in the city.

The greed and brutality of the southwestern Zhufan, who followed the Song army south, also completely united the Duan and Gao Er clans, and also led many tribes in the Dali Kingdom. The contradictions of the old days, before the crisis of extermination, were just trivial matters that were not worth mentioning. This kind of most basic insight, many times, the self-proclaimed civilized Han people lack it internally, but this time, it was the monarchs and ministers of Dali who gave Kumamoto and others a surprise.

It was at this time that the messenger of peace entered the military camp of the Great Song Dynasty.

Instead of pulling people to the execution ground that had not yet been cleaned up, Kumamoto met the messenger in the middle of the journey.

"I have heard that Dali City is the first place in the south of the country to fly flowers, and the streets are flowing water. Such a beautiful scene, ruined in my hands, I really can't bear it, if your lord can bind himself out of the surrender, this handsome will let go of this Dali City. ”

The envoy still has some courage and is not afraid, "The villain has heard that the country sent troops to invade the territory, it is to set things right for my Dali country, I don't know today, I let my lord surrender by the minister, but he was ordered by holy decree?" ”

"I know you're not giving up." Kumamoto sneered, not at all caught up in this little trick of words.

"Ben Shuai heard people say in Beijing that Dali is long in all seasons, and there are endless flowers. is such a good point, since you don't care about it, then Ben Shuai can only take it first and then care about it. ”
