Li Yuantong was stunned in the village.

The Song army no longer needs to disguise now. The new chain mail, all the new weapons, and the strict military discipline, and tens of thousands of people lined up, looked daunting.

Besides, after Wang Ju shouted, he rode his horse back, and the Song army behind him pushed out prisoners of war, asking them to dig soil and pour straw bags into them, intending to move them under the wall of the briquette. If the arrows were fired, only the Dali soldiers died. If the arrows were not fired, the trench would be filled soon under the pressure of the Song army, and the mud bags and the wall of the briquette would be in line with each other. The Song army calmly attacked the village. Then would there be any other fight?

He sighed and said, "Surrender."

More than 20,000 Dali soldiers cried, put down their weapons, opened the gate, walked out, and surrendered.

"It's over so soon?" Miao Lu asked stupidly.

"How long do you want to fight?" Yao Lin said with a smile.

Of course, if you didn’t use this strategy or change the location, you would have to go through a tragic battle to force these Dali soldiers to surrender.

Wang Ju said seriously: "This battle is only a war on the border. When facing a national destruction, it will not be like this. Don't be proud, a arrogant soldier will be defeated!"

"yes."

But Miao Lu said again: "It's such a big scene."

He swept over with refugees, and the scene was also big, but they were refugees, not like now, so many regular soldiers, and they had never seen so many prisoners of war, more than 47,000 prisoners of war!

"Young Baobao, it's true that he is so harsh and weak inside." Yan Da said.

This is really hard to say, but it is really vague to put personal power in such a large-scale army.

Wang Ju said without comment: "General Yao, identify all the leaders of all sizes."

Yao Lin took his men to identify the various prisoners of war.

When it was getting dark, more than a thousand leaders identified it, some were generals sent by Dali, and twenty-one Wuman leaders came with the army and captured nineteen people alive. The rest were the leaders of each village.

Zhao Luopi was also caught, and Wang Ju also looked at him deliberately, and saw Wang Ju's eyes sweeping over. Zhao Luopi lowered his head and his legs kept trembling.

Wang Juquan pretended not to see it and continued to scan the others. Huang Hua rushed over and grabbed his clothes. Yan Da persuaded him for a long time before letting go.

But Huang Hua still stared at Zhao Luopi in anger.

Some of the little leaders present may not know, but everyone with identities knows this grudge. It is even this grudge that leads to their current fate, so they all look at Wang Ju worriedly.

"Brother Chun, please calm down." Wang Ju persuaded Huang Hua, then looked at these people and said, "A few months ago, my idea was to adopt a policy of winning over your Wuman tribes."

There are many people, and some people may not be able to hear him clearly in the back. Therefore, Wang Ju used the messenger, but when the messenger was delivering the message, he used the local barbarian language. After all, many areas of Wuman are behind, and some leaders really cannot understand Chinese.

"But unexpectedly, I was greatly insulted by you Wuman. As the Prince Shaobao of the Privy Council of the Song Dynasty, you are not only insulting me, but also insulting the entire Song Dynasty."

One person immediately said, "It has nothing to do with us."

"Then why are you here?"

The man was immediately silent.

"In my opinion, I wish I could kill you all, but I always regard peace as a priority."

Li Yuantong was quite disgusted. Just what you did in Jiaozhi, can harmony be the most important?

However, he was really wrong. Although Wang Ju's idea of ​​Dali was really the only one who planned to be harmonious. At least he had no bloody thoughts from beginning to end.

But no matter whether Wang Ju had this idea or not, Li Yuantong dared not question it.

"So you have two choices, one is death, and the other is to accept my arrangements. And try your best to cooperate with me."

Li Yuantong plucked up his courage and asked, "Young Security, what arrangements are there?"

"I will write to the court and grant you some official positions. The big leader will have the position of governor, and the small leader will have the position of military leaders, commanders and other official positions."

In fact, without the approval of the court, Wang Ju has the right to grant these empty official positions. They are rank officials, but officials must be approved by the court, and Wang Ju has no right to grant offices like the governor.

"In addition, the governor pays 2,000 guan a year, the military leader is 1,000 guan, and the instructor is 500 guan. However, not only do you have to cooperate with me, but your whole family will also relocate to the original village!"

"No!" Yan Da asked anxiously.

Li Yuantong also felt something was wrong and asked: "Young Guardian, there are many leaders here now."

More than a thousand people are planning to pay more than one thousand guan per person, so they will have to pay more than one million guan a year. Moreover, countless leaders will be added one after another. Wang Ju secretly gave Yan Da a wink and said, "General Li, our Song Dynasty earns nearly 200 million yuan a year. Can you care about this money?"

The account is not calculated like this, but Li Yuantong didn’t know that even if it was about one million, it was really nothing compared to 200 million.

"Maybe you don't understand how much money is for five hundred guan, Zichuan!"

"Here." Wang Zichuan replied, and moved out silver, cloth, tea, and porcelain from behind the camp, and divided it into four piles.

Wang Ju said again: "Each pile here is equivalent to five hundred guan, one thousand guan is twice theirs, and two thousand guan is four times theirs."

In the era of lack of currency and backward areas, they can only understand in kind.

Li Yuanneng still didn't understand and asked: "Young Bao, why do you do this?"

"In view of this shame, in order to punish you Dali, a certain person must occupy the second county of Shicheng, Dongchuan, but some tribes did not come, and some villages did not come. A certain person asked you to convince them and be a guide for a certain person. In addition, after you move, you will give you official positions and high salary to stabilize the people's hearts. This is a great concession for someone. If you agree, accept it. Disagree is just one word, die! You think about it for one night and give someone a reply tomorrow."

"I agree, I agree," Zhao Luobi shouted loudly.

"No." Huang Hua became angry again.

Wang Ju made a gesture to calm Huang Hua, then took a deep breath, as if suppressing the anger in his heart, and said, "Zhao Luopi, I wish I could tear you apart, but I should do it when I say it. If you agree, I will also give you a governor and pay you a salary of 2,000 yuan a year. But you must cooperate with me. Otherwise, I will definitely crush you into ashes!"

"Okay, okay." Zhao Luobi kept kowtowing, and his head kept placing like a chicken eating rice.

However, leaders of all sizes, such as Wuman, were not ridiculed. This time, the Song Dynasty sent troops and recruited Luopi was the culprit. It would be good to be able to survive by chance.

Li Yuantong asked again: "What if China repents in the future?"

"Tomorrow we can hold a solemn oath here, to the heavenly oath. But General Li, you are talking too much."

Li Yuantong was so scared that he didn't dare to speak.

But Wang Ju didn't pay attention to him anymore and said, "I've thought about it. There's only one night. Bet them down and let them think slowly."

Yao Lin thought that these people would be taken to the village again and sent someone to guard them.

Yan Da asked in confusion: "Young Guardian, do you really give them so much salary? The court would not agree."

Why do you say this?

Wang Julin came from Qizhou and wrote a memorial, which was delivered to the capital with special feet to explain the reason for sending troops to the Wuman.

However, after so many days of stalemate, Wang Jucai received an edict from the court, saying that the court had ordered Kumamoto, Miao Shu and Liu Changzuo to go south.

It was only ten days ago that the court issued an edict, asking Kumamoto and Miao Liu to go south. The edict was in the hands of the three of them. The three of them set off again and they would also order to gather 5,000 foreign cavalry, 3,000 Sichuan soldiers, food, grass and supplies, etc. I am afraid that by the time we arrived in southern Sichuan, it would be half past the first lunar month next year. If we were to slow down, it might be delayed until February next year.

Yan Da had expressed concern before, and many people in the court disagreed.

Wang Ju said lightly, "You all think that the Dali country has a large territory, a large population, and a complex terrain, and it also has a history of defeating the Tang army. Moreover, most of the ministers in the court do not understand the army. They will be more worried. So it is normal to delay for a while.

In fact, Wang Ju was also unhappy.

Wang Ju has the right to grant these leaders an empty-ranking official, but Wang Ju has no right to pay for this salary. With the virtues of the ministers in the court, are they willing to pay so much? Besides, this is the beginning. Maybe there will be more and more leaders to be sent to the capital later.

"The court must not agree, I will pay the money."

"Young Guard, are you here?"

"If I send them overseas, I won't violate the oath."

"Well, this is not violated," Yan Da said. Wang Ju only said that he would move to the original village, but did not say where to migrate. As Yan Da reacted, "Overseas?"

"If I put it on an isolated island, a pound of pork costs a pound of ten coins of rice costs a pound of rice, can I pay them so much money?"

"Hahaha," Yan Da finally understood, but he still didn't understand: "Young Bao, I found that your attitude towards Jiaozhi people and Dali people are different."

It doesn’t matter what actually appeases people’s hearts. As long as a “land reform” is used, it can be exchanged for the support of most barbarians. Can you expect ordinary people to have a concept of family, country, and race? Most of them do not depend on who gives them more benefits.

Therefore, there is no need to stay these leaders, just kill them. No matter how cunningly Wang Ju is placed, he is now giving these leaders a way out for their families.

So Yan Da expressed doubts.

"There are two reasons. The first reason is that Guo Gong went south. When I heard about Guo Gong, I felt that Guo Gong might not succeed. Therefore, I calculated in Quanzhou how to truly occupy Jiaozhi. But after half a day, there was still no good idea. Then I came up with the Beibu Gulf pirate plan. One is the foundation overseas, and the other is that it can allow the court to completely govern Jiaozhi. It was not until after coming to Guangnan that I saw the weakness of Dali. And after the founding of Nanzhao and Dali, there was another advantage, that is, many areas had systems and preliminary management, rather than like the early Tang Dynasty. Either civilization was very backward, like the natives on the islands overseas, the backward armor of the armor led to low combat power and expulsion. Or there was a certain civilization, and this civilization was in a long-term and relatively peaceful state, and the soldiers lacked combat experience.

All these situations are conducive to the army's combat. But the two things that are most afraid of are two. The semi-civilized and semi-cultivated areas are better. If it is enlarged to the entire Dali area, it will be a headache. This is also the reason why the early Tang Dynasty could not truly manage this area and had to launch the Montessus as the spokesperson. There is also a civilization in the rising stage and is expanding, just like Jiaozhi, which can also make people headache. However, Dali is not the latter, but the former. With a certain civilized system and taxation, there is no large-scale war for a long time, and the soldiers lack experience in war. Most areas also advocate Buddhism and hate killing. Their lifestyle is mostly settled in semi-nomadic state rather than a real nomadic area. There is no fixed place to manage, so Dali is now different from the Montessus of the Tang Dynasty. Coupled with the meaning behind it, I thought of Dali."

After this battle, Wang Ju's words now are undoubtedly more convincing.

"But the difficulty lies in defeating Dali. It's the governance after defeating Dali. If it's still like the Tang Dynasty's tyranny, it's better not to use troops. Then I kept thinking hard and wanted to move this sweeping to Dali. It's obviously unlikely, either by the sea or the area is too large. Not only do I want to manage Dali, but I also think about how to deal with some unruly barbarian chiefs in Guangnan. So I came up with the idea of ​​this even-sweeping in Qizhou to see how the effect is. But at that time, the first sweep had already begun. Hatred had long been formed, can I still implement my strategy again in Jiaozhi? So in Jiaozhi had to continue sweeping."

In fact, Wang Ju never thought of attacking Dali from beginning to end. This also shows that he was still influenced by his previous life, including his hatred for the natives of South China.

However, even if you implement a strategy like Dali in Jiaozhi, it may not be successful, because the core area of ​​Jiaozhi is similar to that of the Song Dynasty, but whether it is the Man District of Guangnan West Road, Dali, or the chieftain system.

It can only be said that if Wang Ju had not been thinking about discrimination for a while, and if he seriously thought about better ways of caring for gentleness, the situation during the Ming Dynasty might not have occurred.

This reason is just a reason for Wang Ju to swear.

Wang Ju looked at the senior generals in front of him and continued, "The second reason. You all know why I claim to occupy only Shicheng County and Dongchuan County. First, these two counties almost cover two-thirds of the Wuman. Second, if these two counties occupy the upper part, the upper part can communicate with Rongzhou and Guangnan in the east, which is closely linked to the Song Dynasty. However, this time the Yixi tribe, Nai Niang tribe (also known as Yi Niang tribe), Mangbu tribe, Wusa tribe, Wumeng tribe, and Atou tribe. Because most of them are real mountainous areas, they are not closely connected with the other Wuman tribes, and no reinforcements are sent. If Xiong Botong's army has arrived, and with one attack from the north and south, several tribes will surrender. However, we have no way to attack."

In these several parts are the Changning Army, which is the Xuzhou Barbarians.

When Kumamoto was operating the Luzhou barbarians, the Song Dynasty built the Wuning Fort and Anyi Fort. Under Kumamoto's strong pressure, the local barbarian leaders offered Changning, Yan, Feng, Gao, Xue, Gong, Jing, Si'e and other ten prefectures. However, the Changning Army has not yet been established, but the Jingjing Supervisor is established, which is under the jurisdiction of Luzhou. The above is Rongzhou Yibin.

Although the Song Dynasty had weak control over the Qingjing area, it had become imprisoned and could barely be regarded as the territory of the Song Dynasty.

However, Wang Ju missed a region, that is, the southwestern Yi in the northeast of the border between the two counties. There is no way out. Even if Dali can be taken over in the future, this region will become a country like the Meishan Man for a long time, and it will be a large-scale country China, with an area of ​​more than ten times that of the Meishan area.

But only if the Song Dynasty has ambitions and does not decline immediately, Dali can always be controlled, and this area can still be digested in the future. If the Song Dynasty declines, even if Dali may be thrown away again, let alone this southwestern Yi region with more complex terrain.
