- Nong Zongdan and his son came over and bowed to Chen Ke.

"The general was not involved in this battle, don't be mistaken. Killing people of the same clan is always a human tragedy. Chen Ke said lightly.

"My lord is too worried," the father and son of the Nong family were stunned by the sight of corpses all over the field, and Nong Zongdan's voice trembled: "My father and son are now officials of the Great Song Dynasty, and they are inseparable from the traitors. ”

"It seems that I was overly worried, and General Nong is commendable for his loyalty." Chen Ke laughed loudly: "However, the Great Song Dynasty is a state of benevolence and righteousness, and Nongbu and Nong Zhigao still have to be distinguished." The old general Yang sent a message back and said that he had captured the four nong xiaqing father and son, and the general was bothered to persuade them, if they could be said to return to the imperial court and hand over the whole nong zhigao clan, the official could be the master and pardon the nong. If Nong Xia Qing is willing to serve the imperial court, the official also welcomes it with both hands. ”

Nong Zongdan took the order and left, Liu Yue'e was puzzled: "After spending so much effort and dying so many people, do you just let them go?" ”

"How else?" Chen Ke smiled bitterly: "Not to mention the thirty-seven departments in eastern Yunnan, they are intertwined and related to each other, if the Nong department is cut down and eradicated, I don't know how many tribes will hold grudges." Do we have the strength to cut down the grass and eradicate the roots? After this battle, there are still tens of thousands of men in the Nongbu, and don't expect them to fight with us again. Look at these reckless mountains, as long as they hide in it, can we afford it? ”

"So, this battle can actually be left unfought." Liu Yue'e said: "Directly ask Nong Zongdan to find Nong Xiaqing, the effect may not be bad." ”

"Hahaha, if you don't say it, you have long hair and short knowledge." Chen Ke laughed loudly: "A hand of roses." And with a big stick. If the Nongbu of the head of the 37 Wuman tribes is subdued, the remaining 36 departments will obey us, and the entire Dali will obey us! ”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The Song army won a great victory at Baoyueguan, beheaded 2,000 Nong troops, and Nong Zongdan persuaded Nong Xiaqing to hand over Nong Zhigao's mother Anong, younger brother Nong Zhiguang, and two sons Nong Jifeng and Nong Jiming, and led the Ju clan to surrender. As soon as the news came out, it quickly shocked the entire Dali.

Originally, the barbarian tribes who were still respectful of the Song army were far away. One after another, they sent envoys to express their willingness to submit to the imperial court. Gao Shengtai, who has been grinding in Xuanwei, also hurriedly stepped up his horse and rushed to reward. In the area of the stone forest, the army of the Song Dynasty came from afar.

On the dusty avenue, tens of thousands of people who are tall, and the tall Song Jun was ordered to wash his clothes and armor yesterday. Sharpen the blades of the soldiers, and keep the march in a neat line today. In addition, they had just won a big victory, and their morale was high, and they were really mighty, and they bluffed Gao Shengtai and others who came to the labor army.

Fan Zhen's illness has been cured, the army has won a big victory, and people are in good spirits at happy events.

"There is a saying: 'Read ten thousand books.'" It's better to travel thousands of miles', the ancients did not deceive me. Fan Zhen looked at the clusters and clusters of gray-black stone peaks and stone pillars rising from the ground beside the road, pointing at the sky, making people feel like they were in a black forest. Exclaimed: "There is such a majestic and wonderful scene in the world! ”

"Yes, there are a lot of limestone ......" Chen Ke was a little distracted. He found that the ground was full of clay and limestone mountains, which was a good place to produce cement.

"What limestone?" Fan Zhen wondered.

"Oh, I mean, if it weren't for the civil war in Dali, they wouldn't dare provoke us. We couldn't have made it so easy. Chen Ke returned to the Divine Dao.

"Zhong Fang, don't be presumptuous," Fan Zhen didn't agree with his kind of 'extinguishing his own prestige and growing the morale of others', and said with a smile: "Along the way, how many tribes have surrendered, is it also because of the civil strife in Dali?" I want to say that this is the credit of Chen Zhongfang, which is comparable to the old seed! "Chong Shiheng subdued the Qiang people in the northwest. It has long been rumored to be a good talk. ..., "I am in a good era, this era of the Great Song Dynasty exudes infinite charm, so that the surrounding nations and countries. I was in awe of us, and I was just taking advantage of their awe. Chen Ke shook his head and smiled: "I hope this kind of awe can exist forever, and I hope that my Great Song can be truly strong." At that time, this country of wonderful fragrance can truly belong to the Great Song Dynasty. Saying that, he raised his eyebrows and said arrogantly: "To the south of this country, there are several richer and weaker countries, and at that time, I believe they all belong to the Great Song Dynasty!" ”

"When others say this, I will definitely laugh at him for daydreaming, but you Chen Zhongfang say this, I believe it!" Fan Zhen praised it excitedly, and changed his words: "But you must also beware of reckless military force, and you will die if you are warlike......"

"Don't worry, the war drags the country down to poverty because it is not an economic account. If I were to start a war, I would consider whether it was worth it. Chen Ke said with a smile: "For example, my Great Song Dynasty lacks silver and copper, and iron, but with Dali, everything is satisfied." Such a war will only strengthen the country, but will not drag down the country. After a pause, he said, "Of course, you have to be able to take it." ”

"That's what I'm worried about, too." Fan Zhen said with a worried face: "I think you have also discovered that the old Western Army has been away from his hometown for many years, and he has been fighting hard for a long time, and his war-weariness is very strong. After the battle of Baoyue Pass, I am afraid that I will never be so desperate again. ”

"What the marshal said is that the old Western Army needs a big rest, those who should visit their relatives return to their hometowns to visit their relatives, and those who should be paid silver should be raised, in short, they are expected to be counted on for a year and a half." Chen Ke nodded and said, "That's why I'm in a hurry to train the new army, and I always have to hold the shelf first." After a pause, he said: "More importantly, Dali wants to stop fighting as soon as possible." If it continues to fight, it will not be in the interests of the Great Song Dynasty. ”

Fan Zhen felt very helpless about Chen Ke's 'interests' when he opened his mouth and closed his mouth: "You actually want to separate the three kingdoms of Dali, isn't this benevolent?" ”

"Righteousness is for one's own people. Western Xia and Liao, have they ever been benevolent and righteous to our people? Chen Ke smiled faintly: "If the people of Dali want to enjoy the benevolence and righteousness of the Great Song Dynasty, they can, but they must wait until they are completely attached." ”

Fan Zhen could only smile bitterly, and just wanted to persuade Chen Ke to do more benevolent government and kill less, when suddenly an officer galloped to report: "The son of Dali Xiangguo, Xuanwei Jiedu envoy Gao Shengtai, led a large team of people to come to the labor army!" ”

When Fan Zhen heard this, he looked at Chen Ke and smiled: "It seems that the people of the Gao family are still on the Tao." ”

"If you don't go to the road, you can't do it, our corners of his walls will be hollowed out." Chen Ke said with a smile. Since the victory of Baoyueguan and the annexation of the Nongbu, there has been a large tribe that has accepted the canonization of the Song Dynasty...... Although it was only nominal, it was enough to make the Gao family sleep.

"Let Gao Shengtai come over." Fan Zhen commanded, suddenly remembered something, and looked at Chen Ke narrowly: "Do you want to avoid it." ”

Chen Ke knew that he was referring to the fact that he pretended to be dead in Dali City and the golden cicada came out of its shell. Shaking his head, looking at the mighty and majestic army, he smiled lazily: "I'm just not dead, what's the matter?" Don't accept and bite me. ”

"What a scoundrel......" Fan Zhen shook his head and smiled bitterly. Yes, with this army of 60,000 as the backing, Chen Ke will die if he doesn't want to die, and live if he wants to, who dares to say more in person?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

While speaking, Gao Shengtai came, wearing a purple official robe, a jade belt around his waist, and a high crown on his head. The end is like a crown of jade, rich and handsome.

"Under Gao Shengtai, greet the two adults...... "Although he is extremely noble in Dali, Gao Shengtai did not dare to hold up in front of the high-ranking officials of the Song Dynasty, and obediently dismounted and saluted. I'm afraid that the etiquette is not careful, and I will be found by the Song people.

Chen Ke turned over and dismounted, laughed and held him and said: "The prince doesn't need to be polite, the soldiers have been on the expedition for two months, and they have long been tired of horses and sleepy, and now when they see the prince, they can be regarded as home." "...,"That's,That's ......" Gao Shengtaixin said, how do you call it home when you see me? Are we so acquainted? He had to say with a smile on his face: "The army of the Celestial Empire is here, how dare the Han family be polite?" There were 500 pigs and sheep and 1,000 quintals of wine. If it is not enough, just command. ”

"It's really not enough...... Chen Ke was not polite to him, and said helplessly: "Don't hide it from the world, we didn't expect that such a little road could be walked for two months, and the food brought would have been eaten long ago." Although the beef and sheep wine is good, it can only be a full meal for a while, so let's borrow some military rations from the prince. ”

"Borrowed food?" Gao Shengtai's face turned green, and he stammered: "This ...... The Han family can't afford to provide food and grass for tens of thousands of troops. ”

"Childe just watched as our 60,000 troops starved to death at your doorstep?" Chen Kepi smiled and said with a smile.

"This ......" Gao Shengtai's feelings about the officials of the Celestial Empire were shattered, and he said with a sad face: "The Han family should do their best." ”

"Also," Chen Ke said again: "Since the soldiers entered Dali, they haven't slept a day, and they are extremely sleepy. I also asked the prince to arrange a place to live, so that the sons could rest and recuperate. Without waiting for Gao Shengtai to agree, he said loudly to the soldiers around him: "Sons, don't you want to thank the prince yet?!" ”

"Thank you, Lord Shizi!" The soldiers of the forbidden army shouted in unison.

"Don't dare to be, don't dare to be a ......" Gao Shengtai was about to cry, and shouted wildly in his heart, how come this Celestial Dynasty soldier is similar to a gang of bandits! Although his father ordered him to stop the Song army and prevent them from approaching the Erhai area, he definitely didn't expect that he would pay a heavy price: "But Xuanwei City is too small to accommodate the army of the Celestial Empire." ”

"Scholar rest assured," Chen Ke's empathy came again, he said: "Our army of the Great Song Dynasty is a benevolent and righteous army, don't enter the city to disturb the people, just find us a place near the mountains and rivers, easy to go down to the village." ”

"That's fine." Gao Shengtai breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I'll find you a place." ”――
