Chapter 502: Life or Death

There are also Han people living here in Dali. They are the most willing to be naturalized, followed by the rich people in Dali. Then there is a group of people with the largest number and no matter. In their opinion, it doesn't matter if they change to dozens of emperors, and they still live their own lives.

The most unwilling thing was the noble servants.

They were afraid of death.

The great nobles who were backed by Dali all had their own industries, so the local tyrants here were.

But once naturalized, what are they?

On the contrary, the great nobles were very calm, with two choices: life or death.

No one will choose to die.

Zeng Hui did not look at the situation in the street market anymore and walked directly into the Dali Palace.

Dali Emperor Duan Suying lost weight all over the place, and her eyes were also dark. Obviously, she hadn't had a good sleep these days.

Once upon a time, Dali Emperor Duan Suying just raised his head and then whispered: "The Tubo soldiers and horses have reached the border, and the soldiers and horses of the Song Dynasty have even been erected."

"My letter from Anping Hou of Song Dynasty." Zeng Hui put the letter in front of Duan Suying and took a step back and stood beside him.

Duan Suying was a little surprised to see that the letter had not been opened.

When you open the letter, the first sentence is that a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall, and will naturally become or die, and will not surrender.

Then……

It's gone, Liu An's signature.

Duan Suying smiled bitterly and pushed the letter forward a little, indicating that she would read it by herself.

Zeng Hui read it, but he didn't understand.

Naturalization should be subject to conditions.

But this is not like naturalization, but rather like surrender. Unconditional surrender, turning everything in Dali into the Song Dynasty. This is unbenevolent and righteous.

Duan Suying asked: "Sir Zeng, what do you say?"

"Use my body to block the army for Dali."

Duan Suying shook her head: "Can you block it?"

He once answered: "I am an official of the Song Dynasty, and I can stop it."

"Even Zhao Heng can't stop you, you..." Duan Suying has not been idle these days. He has read the information from normal channels, the rumors from the public, and the news that Dali merchants know, real and fake. He believes that the emperor of the Song Dynasty has no power anymore.

Otherwise, this kind of external war would not be so intensive.

Three years.

This is not considered the battle in Lingzhou.

Speaking of which, it was four years. Liu An believed that this was the tacit consent of the Song Dynasty, but he suspected that the battle of Youzhou. Then the Battle of Qu Yue and the Battle of Qu Yue that year were obviously irrelevant to the Song Dynasty.

He did not guess what Goryeo was doing, but Goryeo did not say that it was naturalized or attached. First, it was a vassal state of Liao, but now it did not say who it belongs to, but in fact it was controlled by the Shi family.

Finally, let’s talk about Japanese.

The Japanese have not been destroyed yet, but it is only a matter of time. The nobles in the Japanese capital were either killed or sent to work as coolies, and many people died of exhaustion in the mining area.

Emperor of the Song Dynasty.

Duan Suying didn't believe that the Emperor of the Song Dynasty knew everything, but Liu An was the one who promoted it.

Does the Emperor of the Song Dynasty have real power?

Who has the final say in the Song Dynasty now?

Have ever done it.

When he was kicked out of Bianliang, the person who did this was Liu An. Duan Suying didn't believe that you could block Liu An's army and you would become a corpse, maybe you would not even be able to keep the corpse.

Duan Suying didn't say directly that Zeng Suying could not stop you, and just said: "There is no date in the letter. It only takes one and a half days to send a letter to the border from here. It can be as long as three days, and as short as two days, the Song army will start attacking. Zeng Xueshu, you... can't do anything."

That's right.

Liu An just didn't have time to write.

Liu An never thought that Dali could naturally naturalize happily, so his plan was that the army would start attacking as soon as it was ready, and let Dali Duan make a decision while fighting.

As for Tie II.

Liu An was not worried. Tie Er's martial arts are third-rate, his ability to escape is first-rate, and he is more sensitive to danger than ordinary people. He can only smell a little wrong and he will immediately escape.

Thinking back to Youzhou, when he went to spy on the Liao army's intelligence, Tie Er could return calmly with the people around him. This is his real ability.

Speaking of the border between the Song Dynasty and Dali, a large number of mountain tribes sent strong men to participate in the war.

The general of the Song army found Liu An: "Sir Liu, many southern barbarians have come."

"Please pay attention to the words. They are from the tribes and villages in the southwest." Liu An, who was looking through the official documents, did not look up, but just replied.

The general said again: "Sir Liu, some of them are sincerely coming to help the war, but others may not be. They want to take advantage of the war and share the spoils."

Liu An then raised his head: "If you fight, you should have trophy. Dali will be the direct territory of our Song Dynasty. Dali may be naturalized, and only some of the items in the official warehouse are used to supplement military use. After the army occupied Dali, it went south directly to pacify the Indochina Peninsula, and then advanced westward to attack Tianzhu."

"Tianzhu is where you grab the spoils."

"Tianzhu, what should I do if I can replenish supplies so far?"

"We have mastered the Malacca Strait. Materials from the Indochina Peninsula will be transported to Tianzhu continuously. It is a bit troublesome for weapons and other items. You can save some money. This needs to be transported from Jiangnan, Quanzhou, Xiongzhou and other places. The time at sea will take at least one month, and it may take forty days."

Liu An stood up and took out a map: "It was not until this time to talk about it. The northern part of Tianzhu was occupied and controlled by the cannibals, and there were many small slave countries. There were two powerful countries in the south, one was called Zhuluo and the other was called Pandiya. The Zhuluo country is a little arrogant at the moment, and they reached out to the South China Sea."

"You should understand that the South China Sea is our Neihu. All small countries around the South China Sea should be our direct vassal states, and even vassal states are not needed. I don't care what orders you have received before. The new rule is that whoever dares to reach out to our territory will have the awareness of being sold."

The general thought for a while: "Sir Liu, I reached out and chopped my head together. Isn't it appropriate? Just shopping for it is a bit troublesome."

Liu An smiled and said, "Okay, follow your advice, and you can cut your head."

"Bachelor Xie praised it."

"Okay, go and prepare for military affairs and tell all Tuzhai and tribes who come to help in the war, first remember the military rules of the Song Dynasty. Whether it is war or surrender, ordinary people are not allowed to harass them. If the war is war, the nobles will not stay. Or naturalize and arrange people to pay the debt. Whoever greeds for the treasury will be compensated five times. If you don't pay, you will do it."

"I understand, I'll go to the camp now."

Liu An sat back and continued to look through the official documents.

If the southwest wants to develop, Liu An believes that roads need to be built. In thirty or fifty years, as long as there is a railway built, it will change a lot here.

The ancient Tea-Horse Road originated from the Tang Dynasty, flourished in the Song Dynasty, and flourished in the Ming Dynasty.
