This is a very special time. After hundreds of years of domination by Buddhism and Taoism, Confucianism once again became the official ideology of China. However, Confucianism has been in decline for hundreds of years, and it is not something that can be revived overnight, and the Han Confucianism has too many fallacies and absurdities, and has been basically abandoned, but the new doctrine has not yet matured, and there are many mountains and factions of various schools, and there are different opinions, but none of them has been widely recognized, and people's thinking is in an unprecedented stage of confusion.

This confusion, embodied in the political life of officials, is confusion. Confucius instilled in these fledgling young Junyan the fiery ideal of "self-cultivation and Qi family to rule the country and level the world, but he did not teach them the method of cultivating Qi and ruling the peace, they could feel that the country was in urgent need of change, but they could not see what the problem was, let alone how to change, and all the bitterness and confusion were born from this.

But Wang Anshi's "Book of Ten Thousand Words" is like a slap in the face, and the disadvantages of the Great Song Dynasty are treated. One by one, little by little, it is clearly displayed in front of these young people. What's even more rare is to tell them how to solve it! And it seems plausible and convincing.

Their blood was ignited by Wang Anshi's love for the rule of the world, and they surrounded the fire and sang about wine, and the song crossed the city wall, echoed over the dragon's head pass, and also spread to the Yang family's military camp outside the city.

In the Yang military camp, there was a gloomy cloud. The bored soldiers, of course, did not have the same good conditions as Wang Shao and them, so they could only sit in the camp catching lice and basking in the sun. Occasionally, the soldiers salivated at the smell of barbecue wafting from the city, and then cursed in a whisper the Yang family father and son ...... who instigated their rebellion.

When the father and son of the Yang family started an incident, they threatened to attack Dali City within half a month and open the Duan family's treasury. Each soldier weighed silver in large scales, divided gold in small scales, ate meat in large pieces, and drank wine in large bowls...... However, three months have passed, and they are still blocked under the Dragon Head Pass, and the grain and straw prepared at the beginning have long been exhausted, and the ground has been scraped within a radius of a hundred miles, not to mention eating meat and drinking wine, and even eating bran and pharyngeal vegetables has become a problem.

If these grievances had been heard earlier, the officers would have punished them severely. But now, they all let it go, because they all knew that the Tubo people had withdrawn, the Song army had also entered Dali, and the Gao family was threatening them to surrender. The embattled Nanzhao army has become an inevitable ....... At this time, everyone is worried about their fate, and no one wants to be buried by this broken ship that is bound to sink.

Not only the junior officers, but also the senior officers in the core of the Yang clan also thought the same. Although they didn't say anything, the silence at the top meeting had already clearly expressed this sentiment.

At this moment, the generals have retired, and only Yang Yunxian's father and son and their chief strategist Yang Shiduo are left in the tent. Yang Yunxian was already going crazy, he and his army were trapped in front of the Dragon Head Pass and could not advance an inch. His ally, the Tibetan prince Selicheng, said that he had been ordered by Zampu to withdraw his troops...... Hell, in the past, the one who Selicheng mentioned in the river was called a wild seed, but now he has become a Zampu that he must not disobey. …,

And Gao Zhisheng, who has always been his loyal follower and swore to share life and death with him, became a turtle with a shrunken head, not only did not help him, but urged him to stop the war and negotiate peace. The words even hinted that if he didn't agree, he would send troops to support Duan's ......, which could be regarded as a ruthless one.

In any case, the Tubo people withdrew, the Gao family changed their hexagrams, leaving him alone, facing the increasingly difficult to conquer Longshou Pass, as well as the Song army that had already opened to the Xixian Mansion, the situation forced him to have no choice, and it seemed that there was only one way left for an armistice and peace talks.

But in the eyes of everyone, the imperative path is extremely difficult for Yang Yunxian. Because back then, his ancestor Yang Ganzhen was forced into desperation by the Duan family, so he had to accept peace talks and give up the throne.

So in the dictionary of the Yang family, the so-called peace talks are surrender, and the object of surrender is the Duan family, what kind of humiliation is this?

"Could it be that the old man has been planning for many years, and once he raised troops, just to humiliate Pinhua again?" Yang Yunxian looked haggard and his eyes were blood-red, but he was like a sick tiger, and roared in a low voice: "You say, how can the old man accept it?!" ”

"My lord, Gao Xiangguo is also a well-intentioned ......", Yang Shiduo persuaded softly: "There is a way to know the current affairs for those who are handsome ......."

"You fart!" Yang Yizhen spit a mouthful of thick phlegm on his face and said: "Gao Zhisheng is used to shrinking turtles, so he thinks that everyone is shrinking turtles!" Fart, fart, fart! Even if our father and son die, we should not be this shrunken turtle! ”

Yang Shiduo had long been accustomed to his behavior, so he just wiped his face and didn't say anything. But Yang Yunxian said: "Bastard, dare to do this to your Uncle Shiduo!" Seeing that his son's face was not inferior, Yang L Wuxian sighed and said: "Shiduo, the old man apologizes to you on behalf of this evil animal, and I don't know when he will be sensible." ”

Yang Shiduo said in his heart, isn't it what you are used to? But his face was still frightened: "Where is the lord talking, the young lord is heroic ......",

"Stop talking that nonsense." Yang Yunxian waved his hand and interrupted him: "Shiduo, you still have to tell me, what should we do?" ”

"It depends on where the lord's bottom line is." Yang Shiduo said slowly.

Yang Yunxian got up and paced for a long time, his face was gloomy, and finally stood still and said: "Don't call the Duan family a minister, everything else can be discussed!"

"What the hell is this......." Yang Shiduo pondered for a moment and said, "It's not impossible. ”

"Oh, come on!" Yang Yun Wuxian suddenly raised his head and said.

"This battle, the Yang family relied on the people of the Song Dynasty to win, but it is not an exaggeration to say that they drank to quench their thirst." Yang Shiduo said: "There is an old saying among the Han people, it is easy to invite God and it is difficult to send God. It is difficult to say whether Dali will be surnamed Duan in the future. ”

"You mean, the people of the Song Dynasty won't leave?" Yang Yunxian said in a deep voice.

"Definitely not leaving", Yang Shiduo said lightly: "The people of the Song Dynasty sent troops just to get our Dali, how could they come and go?" Unless the emperor of the Song Dynasty is really the reincarnation of a bodhisattva. After a pause, he said: "And Duan Silian can only pinch his nose and admit it, who made him already a vassal to the Song Dynasty?" ”

"Father, we can also be vassals to the Song Dynasty." Yang Yizhen suddenly said: "Anyway, the Duan family has already dedicated the title of Lord of Dali to the Emperor of the Central Plains, and it is reasonable for us to call them vassals." Saying that, he smiled and said, "Originally, our Yang family lost to the Great Song Dynasty, not to the Duan family."

Losing to the Central Plains Celestial Empire is reasonable, what's there to be ashamed of? ”

"Well, ......", this is a new idea, in this way, the Yang family and the Duan family are both Song Chen, and they are no longer monarchs and ministers, and Yang Yunxian can also take this breath. He thought for a moment and said, "Will the Song Dynasty agree?"

"I will definitely say yes." Yang Shiduo bowed his jaw and said: "This time, I have collected the Song Dynasty's ruling strategy for the barbarian region, and I know that they have adopted the method of restraint. ”…,

"The method of chicken?" Yang Yizhen's eyes straightened and said, "Can you fucking not drag the text?" ”

"It's what it means to be controlled." Yang Shiduo smiled bitterly: "Sometimes they will be gentle, and sometimes they will use force to suppress, but they are all for the same purpose, so that the fan department is in a controllable state. To put it bluntly, we just want to see us divided internally, and we don't want to see any one dominate the country. ”

"It's over if you don't say that a long time ago," Yang Yizhen smacked him and said, "This trick is not new, let's use it too." ”

"Exactly. The art of weighing is used by kings and princes. Yang Shiduo nodded and said: "The people of the Song Dynasty need us very much to balance the situation in Dali...... not because of the Duan family, but because of the Gao family. ”

"The Gao family?"

"Hmm." Yang Shiduo nodded and said: "My subordinates have always advised the lord that the Gao family has unified the thirty-seven tribes of the Wu clan, and its strength has surpassed that of the entire Bai clan. Even if they support us in destroying the Duan family, they are just borrowing a knife to kill people, and sooner or later they will still attack us. ”

"Don't talk about the past." Yang Yunxian waved his hand irritably and said, "I regret my green intestines." ”

"The people of the Song Dynasty have been in Dali for several months, and they must know this very well." Yang Shiduo said calmly: "This time, my Bai clan suffered heavy losses in the civil war, and it was even more impossible to confront the Wu tribe. If the Song Dynasty wants to grasp Dali smoothly in its hands, it will definitely support the strength of our Bai clan; If we can show sincerity, they will not only stop embarrassing us, but will help us regain our strength. After a pause, he said, "In the future, it is not impossible to acquiesce to our annexation of the Duan family. ”

These words made Yang Yunxian quite moved, and after thinking for a long time, he finally nodded heavily and said: "Shiduo, please go to Dali for trouble", ",

"I'm afraid that Dali Chengxia will use it, so I have to go to the Mansion." Yang Shiduo said.

"Oh, yes." Yang Yunxian nodded and said, "Go, the future of my Yang family is all counting on you." ”

"The Lord is serious." Yang Shiduo hurriedly said: "I am also a member of the Yang family, so I naturally don't hesitate to do anything." ”

"See?" Yang Yunxian said to his son: "This is your backer in the future, if you want to be the head of this family, the first thing is to respect your Uncle Shiduo." ”

"Father," Yang Yizhen was puzzled: "I am the head of the family, what are you doing?" ”

"Hahaha, he died before he left the school, and the hero burst into tears." Yang Yunxian laughed, but his laughter was full of desolation: "Silly boy, do you think, can I still live?" ”

"Why can't you live?" Yang Yizhen found that two lines of tears were flowing on Yang Shiduo's face, and she knew that her father was not joking, and said in surprise: "Didn't you say that it would be okay to surrender to the Song Dynasty?" ”

"If the Song Dynasty doesn't pursue us, will I be fine?" Yang Yunxian smiled bitterly: "Since the beginning of the army, the clansmen have suffered heavy casualties, and the savings of the clan for many years have been empty, but nothing has been gained. Those families who died don't hate our Yang family? Those who are hungry and cold because of poverty don't hate our Yang family? Saying that, he sighed and said: "If I don't apologize with death, the Yang family will lose the hearts of the people, and if they lose the hearts of the people, they will not be far from defeat!" ”

I will definitely continue to write, but whether I can send it or not, I don't dare to say it anymore, it depends on whether the little monk is worthy of cooperating ......, if there is no one at night, there must be one in the morning.
