Chapter 227: The Millennium Past Has Been Heavy (1)
The eldest grandson, Moli, asked seriously: "Brother Dechu, why do you ask like that?"
"Donghua Chaobao" said that Duan Zhengchun, the leader of Dali, and Gao Taiming, the prime minister, were secretly quarreling fiercely. However, Duan's strength was at a disadvantage. In order to avoid the Gao family's advantage, Duan Zhengchun prepared to take the Zen position with his son Duan He.
Then the Yang family and the Li family who supported the Duan family were angry and secretly assassinated Gao Taiming. The situation in Dali was in chaos. The Yang family, the Li family, the Dong family, the Yao family and other big families in the country supported the Duan family.
and the Gao family, attacking each other..."
Having said this, Liu Zhengfu leaned forward slightly and asked, "Mr. Xuanming, isn't this a God-given opportunity?"
Changsun Moli replied calmly: "Dali Mountain is high and the road is far away, and the forest is deep and miasmatic. It is difficult to send a large army there."
Liu Zhengfu looked at his face, trying to tell whether what he said was true or false.
"Mr. Xuanming, in the fifth year of Tianqi, after the official patrol to the north, he was very satisfied with the armies in Hedong and Hebei. He felt that the training of the northern horse infantry army had been successful. He also said that the next step would be to train the southern armies. Isn't it right to attack the Dali Kingdom?
A good chance?”
Changsun Moli shook his head gently.
"Fighting is not that simple. When we attacked Xia, we had the support of the Western Army, which had fought bloody battles with Xixia for many years. Only then could the officials make good plans. Hehuang won three battles and achieved three victories, completely turning the tide of the war. Then we could calmly organize and train the Northern Forbidden Army.
They were sent to the border between Song and Xia in batches and slowly trained, so that they could finally succeed in the battle to destroy Xia in the fourth year of Tianqi."
"The Forbidden Army in the South was originally small and weak, and had no support like the Western Army. Even if Di Wu Xianggong (Di Qing) defeated Nong Zhigao and brought down Yongzhou, the Forbidden Army would have disappeared long ago. It was transferred from the north.
When the new army goes south, it will be difficult to adapt to the climate in the south... It will be difficult!"
Liu Zhengfu is a little anxious. I really don't want to discuss this with you.
Destroying Dali is just a word. I don't care about that small country in the south. What I want to know is, if you are recalled to Beijing this time, will you be sent to Bashu to take charge of the war?
As a result, you are pretending to be deaf and dumb here.
Liu Zhengfu thought for a moment and knew that there was a high probability that he would not be able to defeat this person, so he simply went straight to the point.
"Dechu was a little worried when he was summoned to Beijing this time. In the various departments of the Shangshu Province, no one has resigned. On the other hand, in the Zhongshu Province, I heard that several seniors are in poor health and have already written to beg for their bodies."
Changsun Moli looked at Liu Zhengfu and laughed, making him a little flustered.
"Brother Dechu, five years after the Apocalypse, have you ever visited Mr. Tianjue (Zhang Shangying) again?"
Liu Zhengfu's face straightened. This topic was so exciting that it was a bit confusing. He didn't dare to be negligent, so he thought about it secretly and answered carefully.
"In the fifth year of the Apocalypse, after Mr. Tianjue became an official, he was hired as the head of the mountain by the School of Literature of Luoyang University and settled down in Luoyang. In the sixth year of the Apocalypse, I went to the imperial mausoleum to pay homage to the temple as a minister of the Ministry of Rites. When the late Emperor Zhe Temple was visited, I stopped by.
I went to Luoyang to take a look at the preparations for the establishment of several Buddhist academies in Buddhism. I went back to visit Mr. Tianjue. I have never seen Mr. Tianjue again since then."
After finishing speaking, Liu Zhengfu asked: "Mr. Xuanming, why did you ask about Mr. Tianjue?"
"Mr. Tianjue, there was originally a hope that after Xiao Su Gong, he would take over the post of Situ and become the prime minister of the country. Unfortunately, he was too eager for quick success and wanted to take advantage of opportunities, so he fell in."
Liu Zhengfu's eyelids twitched a few times.
This is beating me up, telling me not to be like Zhang Shangying, who is eager for quick success and ends up losing everything!
"Dechu has learned a lesson!" Liu Zhengfu thanked him honestly.
Seeing that Liu Zhengfu was on the right path, Changsun Moli decided to remind him.
"Brother Dechu, I have specially arranged to meet you in Jiangdu. In addition to wanting to have more companions on the road, I also want you to chat more with the Byzantine envoys."
"That's Lifansi's matter. What Mr. Xuanming means is..."
"In the past it was the Lifan Division, and in the future it may be the Lifan Division." Changsun Moli nodded, "In addition to the vassals such as Goryeo, Dongbo, Liyue, and Dali that have close contacts with our dynasty, there are also many Nanhai, Nanhai, and other vassals.
There are various foreign vassal countries in the ocean, large and small. Moreover, now our maritime trade is prosperous, and there are tens of thousands of merchants traveling to and from various countries in the sea. Although the safety and interests of these people are protected by the navy, it is only the final guarantee of force.
Daily care needs a yamen official office to guarantee..."
Liu Zhengfu understood what Changsun Moli meant.
The Lifan Department, the officials intend to let me form a new department, which will be responsible for paying tribute to Honglu from foreign vassal countries, and ensuring the safety and interests of our dynasty's business travel overseas. In this way, we need to take the initiative to communicate with these overseas kingdoms.
country dealings.
Liu Zhengfu was a smart man and immediately realized that he was responsible for forming a new department. Although he did not have the surprise of being promoted to Youpushe, it was still good news.
After several improvements to the new official system, it became increasingly difficult to be an official in the Song Dynasty. Especially for the top servants, was it so easy to be promoted? If you can be responsible for forming a new department, it is equivalent to entrusting you with a heavy responsibility. If
Once done, you can get extra points!
"Thank you, Mr. Xuanming. Now I'll go ask the two of you to cross the boat and have a chat."
When the ship arrived at Chuzhou, Chang Sun Moli quietly came on the ship with two people.
"Li Shilang, where did you just come from, you're so tired?"
"I stayed in the Northeast for half a year, and then went to Goryeo for another half a year. I just returned to Kaifeng City last month." Li Jian's appearance has not changed much, but his official position has changed. He is now the right deputy envoy to the Military Counselor of the Privy Council and the Military Intelligence Investigation Bureau.
Everything.
"You are very busy! Who is this?" Changsun Moli looked at the person behind Li Jian and asked.
"Come and meet Mr. Xuan Ming! This guy's name is Duda. He is from our Military Intelligence Bureau. He was originally sent to the Nanhai Branch to work, and just happened to meet the Byzantine envoys. This guy knows Da Shi's words, and he is very familiar with the two envoys.
We struck up a conversation and accompanied him all the way from Guangzhou to Shanghai."
"When we arrived in Shanghai, the two envoys came to find you. Duda quickly made a report to the Donghai Branch. They felt that the matter was quite serious and did not dare to neglect it. They quickly asked him to take a speedboat to Beijing and report to the headquarters in person. The report was delivered
In my hands, well, our Military Intelligence Bureau is also being ordered to collect intelligence about the Turkic Seljuk Khanate in the Khorasan region. God has sent an ally!"
Changsun Moli nodded, understanding the meaning of Li Jian's words.
The Military Council is being ordered to study the Western Expedition, and the main target of the Western Expedition is the power of the Turkic Seljuk Khanate in Khorasan.
"Why did this matter alert you, Li Shilang, to go there in person?"
"After receiving the report, the officials summoned me to the palace and asked me twice. The more I asked, the more false they became. Although Duda got a lot of information, those two guys were not vegetarians. Many important things were not revealed.
. Later I heard that if the two of them went to Beijing with you, sir, they would definitely be wiped out by you."
Li Jian chuckled and said, "I used to be half a step late when I returned home, but then I no longer dared to neglect and became impatient. So I dragged Du Da to pick up Mr. and listen to his teachings."
"Haha, you Li Shishi, why do you want to listen to my teachings? To put it nicely, you don't want to get the information I obtained from the two envoys!" This chapter has been completed!
