Covered by red candles and shadows, Long Xueling was dressed in red at this time, and sat on the bed with a red hijab.

With a "squeak", the door opened. Long Xueling's nervous hands clenched the corners of her clothes, and through the red hijab, she could faintly see a figure walking in, closing the door gently, and slowly walking in front of her.

"Xue Ling," Li Shan walked to Long Xueling's side and grabbed Long Xueling's hand, which was at a loss because of nervousness.

Long Xueling also settled down all of a sudden, quietly waiting for Li Shan to lift the hijab, his eyebrows were picturesque, and his bright big eyes looked at Li Shan without blinking.

"Xue Ling, you are so beautiful today!" Looking at Li Shanjiao, she looked like a blooming lily, elegant but warm.

Long Xueling is not shy, on the contrary, the loyalty and enthusiasm of the Miao family woman to love make her very bold. He stroked Li Shan's cheeks with both hands and said with a smile: "Husband, you are also very handsome today." ”

Li Shan picked up the glass of wine on the table and drank it with Long Xueling. The red candle reflected Long Xueling's cheeks even redder, and Li Shan said: "Lady, the Spring Festival is worth a thousand gold, let's rest." ”

The candles went out, and the room was dark, except for the whispering and murmuring of the two men.

The next day, Li Shan and Long Xueling had breakfast in the boudoir, and the night's tart felling made Long Xueling unbearable, so he naturally had to recuperate.

After breakfast, Li Shan came directly to Qing'er to discuss how to govern the country. Qing'er asked Li Shan to come to Yunnan so earnestly, definitely not just because she missed him. Although Li Shan has just tied the knot with Long Xueling, it does not mean that Li Shan is now carried away by the happy event. Now Li Shan has gradually sorted out his thoughts, and Dali is by no means so calm as it seems on the surface.

Qing'er looked at Li Shan coming and teased: "People are in good spirits on happy occasions, and the groom has a good look." It's just that our snow spirit is suffering, I don't know how you big pervert tossed her. ”

Li Shan's old face flushed, it is estimated that Qing'er listened to the corner last night, and said calmly: "Qing'er, I came to talk to you today about business." Although Dali seems to be calm now, I don't think things are so simple, since I'm here, you should tell the truth. ”

Qing'er also restrained her smile, pointed to the map on her desk and said, "Come on, I'll introduce you to the current situation." ”

Qing'er pointed to a few points on the map and said, "After pacifying the Six Edicts, my method is to exterminate all the royal families of the Six Edicts, including Nanzhao. Although Pi Luo Ge is a hero, his son Ge Luofeng is not successful, and he has no other heirs, which saves me a lot of effort. ”

Li Shan nodded and said: "If you kill the royal family, you will starve and there will be no restoration, this is as it should be." But out of the royal family, any aristocratic gentry, tribal leaders may become hidden dangers, including the local officials who are in office, they are the people of the six edicts, if they are not convinced, it is difficult to guarantee that they will not rebel. The most important thing is that now that the six edicts have just been unified, people's livelihood is unstable, and once a riot occurs, there may be a chain reaction. ”

Qing'er smiled: "I have also thought of these, the first decree I implemented was to suppress the gentry and nobles, let them dismiss their property and distribute it to the people in the village, which not only won the hearts of the people but also suppressed the momentum of the nobles, they have no ability to fight us." ”

Li Shanjie applauded: "This is a good way, Qing'er is really smart." Qing'er's approach is very similar to the strategy of the CCP in uniting the peasants and landlords in those years, and only by uniting the broadest masses of the people can victory be achieved.

Qing'er pointed to a red mark on the map and said, "Actually, what you said before is not a problem, I have solved them one by one, and now the biggest henchman is here." ”

Li Shan asked, "What is this?" ”

"This is the army that was assembled after the Six Edicts of the Dangping, a few of which were the troops of the Southern Zhao, and most of them were prisoners of the other Five Edicts. Although they are still in my possession now, these soldiers are too difficult to deal with. Combined, these soldiers are more than 100,000, or one-tenth of the country's population. Such a large army is not at all something that Dali can maintain. But now I don't dare to dismiss this group of troops. Once they are dismissed, the centurions and millurions among them will become the seeds of danger, and these living forces will become weapons in the hands of the rebels, which is too dangerous. ”

Li Shan knew the power of this soldier, most of them had fought against the Nanzhao regime, and were loyal to the other five Zhao royal families, but such a soldier was dangerous, and once it got out of control, it could cause a riot.

Li Shan also fell into a long contemplation, to be honest, he had never encountered such a problem. This is the real reason why Dali is calm, not everyone wants to support the current Dali Dynasty, but they don't have enough armor in their hands to resist. These 100,000 strong men are almost the strength of the whole country in Dali, and half of the young and middle-aged people in the country are gathered here, or even more.

This army is now the biggest hole card in Qing'er's hand, and with it, no one dares to resist. But on the contrary, it is also the biggest hidden danger of the disaster, once Qing'er can't support this army, there is a mutiny, and the whole Dali will tremble. And now Dali does not have enough financial resources to support this army.

Li Shan held his chin and shook his head frequently, pacing back and forth in the study. For a long time, Li Shan said word by word: "I have a way, maybe I can give it a try." ”

Qing'er was helpless even if she was smart and clever, she really pinned her hopes on Li Shan now, and asked, "What's the solution, let's talk about it." ”

Li Shandao: "Don't worry, I want to confirm a few things." Tell me about these countries next to Dali. ”

Qing'er pointed to the map and said: "In our southwest, it is called the country of Piao, which is an alliance composed of many tribes, with a total of eighteen subject countries, nine large and small cities, and a population of hundreds of thousands. To the south of us is Chenla, and at present Chenla is divided into two countries, next to us is Luchenla, and further south is Shuichenla. As for the southeast, it is Annan, which is now attached to the Tang Dynasty and is a vassal state of the Tang Dynasty, which you should know better. ”

Li Shan pointed to the place where Piguo, Lu Zhenla and Dali bordered and said, "If I'm not mistaken, there shouldn't be any people living in this area." ”

Qing'er nodded and said, "There are only a few villages in this area, and there is a Tai tribe on Lu Zhenla's side, and there are not many of them. ”

Li Shan looked at the Thai tribe that Qing'er was referring to in a daze, and thought about it carefully, he knew that this place was known as the "Golden Triangle" in later generations. It is a place where the poor hold their gold.

Li Shan smiled slightly: "My method is to feed the war with war. (To be continued.) )
