Chapter 235: Shock

Occupied the Shanyan Mansion and expelled the Gao family, Gao Zhong turned his attention to the Luo Wu Department, for this kind of-stirring stick who always takes advantage of the fire to rob and likes to make trouble, the way to deal with it is different from the Gao family, their power is often not settled, and they will stand up and make trouble when they have the opportunity, disrupting the plan of the Great Song Dynasty to integrate the forces of all parties in Dali. Therefore, Gao Pet's approach is to strike at them mercilessly, so as to deter those tribes who are still lucky.

Under the unified dispatch of Gao Chong, except for the Wolf Wing First Brigade that stayed in Shanxian City and some state troops in Dongchuan County, the rest of the troops were divided into two routes. A detachment of the good state to the west interspersed with a detour as a hammer, the Guangnan West Road State Army and the Wolf Wing 3rd Brigade out of Hengshanzhai to take advantage of the road from Qiguo from the south to encircle the anvil, like a hammer to smash a walnut to give it a swift blow, a quick end to the war.

Yang Jintang, the patriarch of the Luo Wu tribe, thought that there was a big man on top of the sky falling, but he didn't expect the Gao family to usually look violent, but he didn't expect it to be so bad, and it only took three days to lose Shanxian City and be forced to evacuate in response to the edict, and lose his nest. But he didn't want to let go of it, and gave up what he had in hand, and of course he didn't want to be a Gao. And now that Song Jun has obviously regarded him as the next key object of care, he naturally can't sit still.

Therefore, on the one hand, Yang Jintang sent people to contact the surrounding tribes to form an alliance with them to fight against the 'foreign tribes', and on the other hand, he sent people to Yangtho Baa City with gifts to meet the lord of the country to show his loyalty, hoping to use the power of Duan Yu to get rid of the blow of the Song army. But the character is too bad and the ghosts will not help him, the surrounding tribes are oppressed by the Luo Wu Department, if it was in the past, they might have dealt with it, but now everyone wishes that he was wiped out by the Song army, of course, no one responded. And the envoys who went to the capital did not even see the face of the lord of the country, and the battle began.

Li Quan used all the artillery originally used to attack Shanxian City to attack Luo Wu's department, and the ferocious artillery fire razed a walled city with a Luo Wu department. The tribesmen were driven away from their homes and moved elsewhere. Yang Jintang saw that things were not good, and led people into the mountains to escape the encirclement and hide in the east of the mountains for many days. Without eating or drinking, he wanted to defect to other tribes, but who dared to take him in at this time. Finally, one night he was captured by a hostile tribe and sent to the Song army's tent......

The Song army defeated the Gao clan first, and then pacified the Luo Wu department, and the two battles changed the situation in eastern Yunnan and shocked the Dali Zhufan. For a while, all the departments were like chilling cicadas, and they did not dare to move, Duan Yu immediately issued an edict to order the 37 barbarians of Dali to go to Shanxian City to discuss state affairs, and Gao Zhong sent Li Quan to lead a thousand soldiers to Yang Tho Baa City to welcome Duan Yu. Ten days later, Duan Yu arrived at Shanxian City, and Gao Shunzhen, the minister of state, also arrived with him. He knew that in just a few days, things were already wrong, this was no longer the territory of the Gao family, and the lord of the country was not the original lord.

Three days later, the barbarian chiefs of all the ministries gathered in Shanxian City, and the conference was held under the auspices of the Song envoy and the witness of the Grand Master Jin He. Everyone present understands in their hearts that if the Great Song Dynasty wants to help the Duan clan regain power, the Gao clan will inevitably be cut from power, which is in everyone's interests and a good opportunity for power reintegration. Therefore, they all supported Duan Yu to preside over the military and politics and made friends with the Great Song Dynasty. Under tremendous internal and external pressure, Gao Shunzhen had to bow down and agree to hand over power.

Duan's dictatorship of the government is not in the interests of the Great Song Dynasty, and of course it is not what the ministries want. So under the mediation of the Song envoys, the various ministries reached an agreement, and everyone respected the Duan clan as the master. Accept his leadership, but remove the post of state minister, and replace it with the left and right ministers to govern. The left minister is ordered by the director of state, and the right minister is elected by the thirty-seven ministers. Handle national affairs together. At the same time, a tribal alliance was formed, and major national affairs needed to be discussed together before making decisions.

Because the Dali Protector has always been controlled by the Gao clan. After several discussions, it was decided that the head of the country should be the 'commander of the three armed forces' and lead the whole army, and the soldiers should be recruited and selected from various departments. In view of the current situation, Duan Yu asked the Great Song Dynasty to send personnel to assist Dali in reorganizing the army, training new soldiers, training officers, and at the same time using Shanxian City as a garrison for the Song army, which was supplied by Dali State.

Everyone knows Duan Yu's proposal, he is worried that he has just taken power, and he has no major generals in his hands, and once there is a change, he has no choice, leaving Song Jun to help him form a new army, and second, he can also give himself courage. Gao Zhong welcomed this suggestion very much, he knew that the Emperor Dao would also agree, the Dali army under the training of the Song army will definitely be interested in the Great Song Dynasty in the future, and can also cultivate their own agents from it, and the garrison of Shancheng has gained a foothold, can establish their own base, and can respond quickly to anything around.

Just when all parties reached a consensus and everyone was happy, the departments of Dongchuan County, Jianchang Prefecture and Shicheng County 'suddenly' demanded to secede from Dali and join the Great Song Dynasty. This problem put all parties in an embarrassing place, the Great Song Dynasty obviously could not use troops against the people who fell to him, and Dali Guo had no time to take care of it for the time being, even if he wanted to, he couldn't manage it, they were basically in an independent state many years ago, and they did not pay tribute or send troops. And this time the Gao clan's crusade made them completely fall to the Great Song Dynasty who stood up for them.

The Great Song Dynasty was obviously unwilling to affect the relations between the two countries that had just normalized because of this matter, and the Song envoys did everything possible to 'advise', but the ministries had already made up their minds. The Great Song Dynasty suggested that they should not accept their subordination for the time being, and that the three counties should establish special districts for the time being for them to govern for a period of three years, and then they would decide to stay at that time, and neither country should interfere at that time. At this point, Duan Yu had no better way to do it, so he could only nod. The chiefs of the various ministries have moved their minds, wanting to see what the situation of the three counties will be in three years, and if they are good, they also want to learn, of course, they will not really object.

Duan Yu looked at the lost Gao Shunzhen who was sitting on the side, they had been 'working together' for many years, of course, he knew what he was worried about, and he also understood the needs of this former minister, he frowned, in order to comfort Gao Shunzhen so that he could feel at ease in the future, and he didn't have to worry about being liquidated and thought of rebellion, so he generously appointed him as the left minister to continue to participate in the management of the country. Gao Shunzhen heard the appointment, wiped the beads of sweat on his head, breathed a sigh of relief, bowed down to accept the order, and was deeply moved by the fact that the lord of the country still reused the Gao family despite his previous suspicions, and said that he would do his best to assist the lord.

The barbarian chiefs of the various ministries had a lot of complaints about the appointment of the lord of the country, and finally got him down, and promoted him again, although his power was not the same as that day, but everyone was still uncomfortable, they were worried that Gao's gain of power again was not conducive to the ministries, so they pushed Dong Mida of Chengji County to the right minister. This person is not a fuel-efficient lamp, his ancestor Dong Jialuo once helped the Duan clan to open the country, first as a military adviser and then as the prime minister, and the power was for a while, but later it was replaced by the increasingly powerful Gao clan, and the two clans were like fire and water, and they got him up just to contain him.

It was agreed that all the ministries wrote an oath and drank blood wine under the witness of the envoys of the Great Song Dynasty and the eminent monk Jin He, saying that they would abide by the covenant together, and if there was any violation, the ministries would discuss it together. Later, Duan Yu personally wrote a letter of state and reported it to the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, and he was grateful to the boss for his help......

Zhao Ta received the Dali letter in his heart and landed on the ground, and ordered to seal Duan Yu Shangzhu State, giving a thousand taels of gold, 100 horses of silk, a jade belt, a pair of armor, and 100 volumes of Buddhist scriptures. Subsequently, he was promoted to Gao Zhong as a general with merit in Dali, attacked the ancestor of Ji Guogong, gave 100 hectares of land, and Ma Kuo was promoted to Yinqing Guanglu doctor, and gave 500 taels of gold, and the following meritorious services were rewarded. At the same time, Jin He was appointed as the deputy director of the Intelligence Department, and because of his special status, he could not be rewarded, so he shaded his second son, gave him the birth of a jinshi, awarded the five-rank middle doctor, and increased the official according to his ability.

At the same time, Zhao ordered the transfer of officers and soldiers from the Wolf Wing Army to form a garrison in Dali, which was organized as a brigade, under the command of infantry, artillery, cavalry and baggage, and a naval detachment, responsible for the training of Dali's new army and assisted Dali to resist foreign enemies, quell civil strife, and protect the interests of the Great Song Dynasty. The caravan that had already been prepared immediately entered Dongchuan County according to the plan, opened the mountain to blow up stones, and established a mine to smelt copper to supply military supplies.

The Great Song Dynasty sent troops to mediate the various ministries of Dali in the capacity of the suzerain, quelled the civil strife, and the news of the pro-government of the lord of the country quickly spread through various channels, causing no less shock than the defeat of the Jurchens. In the past, the countries called the Great Song Dynasty just because they saw the wealth of the Great Song Dynasty, and traded in the name of tribute to make huge profits, and the Great Song Dynasty only enjoyed the honor of 'all countries called Tibet', and never used the identity of the boss to interfere in the internal affairs of other countries and stand out for them, so it was only a nominal boss and there was no reality.

Now it is different, sending troops to Dali has made the Great Song Dynasty take a substantial step between the monarch and the minister, which shows that the Great Song Dynasty is a boss who dares to be responsible, and he will no longer sit idly by and ignore the affairs of the vassal state, but will take substantive 'actions', and is no longer the suzerainty on the table. This makes countries have to re-examine and reposition the relationship between themselves and the Great Song Dynasty, and be cautious about this new monarch who is the new monarch of the Zhongxing Great Song Dynasty and leads the country to rise again!

The relationship between the two countries after the rise and fall of the Jurchens during the Xuanhe period was sometimes close and sometimes estranged, and became more subtle after the accession of Zhao Ta, the nemesis, to maintain close economic relations while taking strict precautions, not daring to slack off to give the increasingly powerful Great Song an excuse for 'invasion'. And now the Western Xia is also unstable, and the relationship between the lord Li Qianshun and Wang Di Chage is also becoming increasingly tense, and the 'Dali Incident' makes them see that the Great Song Dynasty has begun to meddle in the internal affairs of other countries and has the ability to influence the direction of a country.

Of course, Li Qianshun and his brothers didn't want to learn Daliguo, so they let Zhao Ta, a kid, take advantage of the loophole to 'teach' himself. After thinking about it, the two brothers decided to suspend the infighting and join forces to get rid of Zhao Ta, so as not to fight their ideas again, and see that it is now October, and the New Year is coming again, so they decided to lead the team to the Great Song Dynasty to pay tribute, and the relationship between Lala and ......
