Liuzhou post house is tightly guarded by Yang Yi's guards, loose outside and tight inside, not allowed to be approached by outsiders, in the room on the west side of the post house, two cups of tea, a light like a bean.

Liu Zheng looks much more capable than when he was in Nanzheng. In the past two or three years, he traveled between Guangnan, Dali, and Zhenla, and the southwest group of the office hall under his jurisdiction provided a lot of valuable information for the imperial court, and was responsible for assassinating the personnel of the Dali Gao and Duan families, balancing the strength of both sides, and the war in Dali was fought for more than two years, which won valuable time for the Great Song Dynasty, and greatly weakened the overall strength of the Dali Kingdom, and created very favorable conditions for the unification of Dali in the Great Song Dynasty.

Being able to see Yang Yi in Lingnan again, Liu Zheng seemed very excited, and after calling "adult", he was almost choked up.

Yang Yi praised him, and waited for him to calm down before asking, "I heard that the Gao family is already in danger, what is the specific situation?" ”

Liu Zhengyi hugged his fists and replied: "My lord, the situation of the Gao family is indeed not optimistic, Duan Heyu takes Duan Qingshan as the commander and has full authority to command the army to fight. Under his command, Duan's army became stronger and stronger, Gao Mingliang drove the army out of Dali City a month ago, and wanted to fight to the death with Duan Qingshan, but Gao Mingliang was defeated, and his fourth brother Gao Mingqing died in the city, Gao Mingliang had to abandon Dali City and retreat to the west bank of the Lancang River. ”

"Oh? What is the relationship between that section of Aoyama and Duan Heyu? ”

Yang Yi's question, Liu Zheng couldn't easily guess Yang Yi's intentions, he shook his head and said: "Duan Heyu has great trust in Duan Qingshan, and he entrusts all the military power to Duan Qingshan. used this to advise Duan Heyu, but Duan Heyu was charged with rumors and slander. The army has been recharged. Duan Qingshan, on the other hand, is a steady and loyal person, and has always adhered to his duty as a monarch and a minister. At least so far, he is still dedicated to serving the master, and there is no disagreement, we want to provoke the relationship between the two, but I am afraid it will be difficult. ”

"Forget it, let's continue to talk about Gao Mingliang's situation."

"My lord, Gao Ming led the remnants of 20,000 to retreat to the west bank of the Lancang River, with Tengchong Mansion as the commander's tent station, and the Lancang River as the defense line to resist Duan Qingshan. Although Gao Mingliang still controls half of the rivers and mountains of Dali, due to the loss of the national capital Dali City, the morale of the army is now extremely low, and the phenomenon of soldiers defecting to the Duan side has begun;

At the same time, Zhenla in the south also has signs of transferring troops to the north, if Zhenla really sent troops to take advantage of the fire to rob, the west bank of the Lancang River mastered by Gao Mingliang will bear the brunt. I'm afraid it will be difficult for him to turn the situation around. ”

Yang Yi thought deeply, the battle situation in Dali had taken a sharp turn for the worse, and it seemed that it could not be delayed any longer, and he asked in a deep voice: "Have these situations been reported to the imperial court?" ”

"Back to my lord. It has been reported, but the imperial court still seems to be a little hesitant, so far. His subordinates had not yet received clear instructions from the imperial court, and the military forces of Guangnan and Sichuan had not received corresponding edicts to prepare for war. According to the express letter sent back by Master Ma to his subordinates. The ministers of the DPRK and China did not agree with each other, but Xiang Fan Xianggong clearly opposed the dispatch of troops to Dali. It is believed that sending troops to Dali will damage the benevolence of the Great Song Dynasty, and even if Dali is defeated in the future, it will be difficult to make the people attached. ”

Yang Yi couldn't help frowning when he heard this, he is not in the capital now, his group of people has always been the main battle faction, and now it is equivalent to a group of dragons without a leader, and his influence will naturally be much weaker, so that the court and the central government have become difficult to decide.

Especially Fan Chunren, a scholar Zuocheng, he is an honest official and dedicated to the country, but his thinking is inevitably a little conservative, what does it mean to be difficult to facilitate the people's hearts to follow? Aren't we just going to get in, and there will be no shortage of righteous names at that time, why is it difficult for the people to be attached?

When the Manchus entered the customs, how many Han Chinese were killed, and what was the result? Under the sharp butcher's knife, you have to belong if you don't belong to it, so the people's heart can be best obtained with benevolence, and if it doesn't work, it may not be impossible to change the way.

Yang Yi thought about it for a while, since it is difficult for all parties in the court to unify their opinions, why not pour some oil on the fire, push the situation in Dali forward again, and help the ministers of the court and the central government to make up their minds.

"How many troops have been transferred to the Dali border by Zhenla?"

"Lord Hui, there are not many people at present, a total of about 13,000 people, but there are 800 elephant soldiers among them, which is the most elite army of Zhenla, so it can be seen that the possibility of Zhenla taking advantage of the fire to rob is still very large."

Yang Yi picked up the teacup and took a sip, it is not surprising that Zhenla will come to insert a kick, when Dali was strong in the past, there was also a war with Zhenla, and occupied some territory of Zhenla, and now Dali has fought a civil war for more than two years, and the Yuan Institute is seriously injured, who doesn't want to take the opportunity to make some benefits at this time?

This Zhenla King Jaya Varman also came to intervene, but it was even more lively, Yang Yi asked lightly: "Is it possible for Gao Mingliang to unite with Zhenla and fight against the Duan clan with the help of Zhenla?" ”

"It is very likely that the subordinates have just arrived at the news, Gao Mingliang has sent an envoy to Zhenla, and its purpose is nothing more than to say that Jayavarman will send troops to deal with the Duan clan together, as for what conditions Gao Mingliang will offer, whether Zhenla will agree, it is still unknown."

This time, Yang Yi said without thinking: "You immediately send an order to the past, and let our people try to create conditions to promote Gao Mingliang and Zhenla to form an alliance." ”

Liu Zheng was slightly stunned, and asked with some puzzlement: "What does the adult mean?"

"Heaven wants people to perish, and they must first make them mad. Hehe, let's let Zhenla send troops to Dali, just to make him crazy first. ”

"My subordinates understand, what the adults mean is that they want to let Zhenla fall into the big quagmire of Dali, and there will be a reason to clean up together in the future, right?"

"Yes, that's what it means."

"Na Cham"

"It's not good to occupy the city, there is no border intersection between the city and Dali, and the advantages of staying in the city for the time being outweigh the disadvantages, so don't act on your own in this matter."

"Whoa!"

Liu Zheng hurriedly responded, although he couldn't figure it out, how could the benefits outweigh the disadvantages of keeping the city?

Of course, he couldn't understand that what Yang Yi said about the advantages outweighed the disadvantages for the capital of the Great Song Dynasty, and he didn't want the imperial court to pay attention to the Nanyang Islands too early, which was the colostrum he left to the capital of the Great Song Dynasty.

"Remember my words, try to let Zhenla get in, the deeper the trap, the better, once you achieve this, you can start to get rid of Duan Qingshan, remember, no matter whether the court has an explicit order or not, you have to start and blame Gao Mingliang, well, it's best to blame Zhenla, clean hands and tails when you act, and then the court can't blame you, understand?"

"Don't worry, your lordship, your subordinates will follow your orders, and there will be no mistakes."

Yang Yi suddenly asked, "By the way, have you found Duan Zhengchun's whereabouts?" ”

Liu Zheng's eyes immediately froze, and he lowered his head in shame and replied: "Lord Hui, not yet, Duan Zhengchun seems to have disappeared out of thin air, no matter how his subordinates search, they have not been able to find out his whereabouts." ”

"Keep looking, you have to see people in life, and you have to see corpses in death."

"Whoa!"
