Chapter 71

As soon as the yawning Duan Yu went out, he saw Lin Dong smiling all over his face, with a strange look in his eyes.

"Master, what are you laughing at?"

Knowing Lin Dong quite well, he closed his mouth in horror, dared not yawn, and then cautiously approached him.

"See for yourself."

Lin Dong did not express his thoughts, but handed over the letter in his hand, and said at the same time: "Yongle City was breached by 30 Xixia soldiers, and 5000 people from the Great Song Xiang Army fell."

"Forehead……?"

As soon as Duan Yu read the beginning, his mind was filled with question marks and he asked cautiously: "Why don't you feel bad about the fall of the Great Song Army?"

Could it be that Master doesn't have family, country and world in his heart?

I can't.

If not, why did you work so hard to build Tongshang City, and even built a border guard city before that, even the Xixia army couldn't help it.

Could it be that……

Duan Yu thought of a possibility, and exclaimed: "Could it be that Master has been disappointed in Da Song because of the pursuit of those fake Taoist priests and the pursuit of Emperor Song?"

This is the only possibility.

If not, the master who should have cared about the world and played a key role in the growth of the hero Qiao Feng should never have looked like this.

"What are you thinking about?"

Lin Dong slapped him, and said with his mouth curled up, "Give me the letter and read it carefully before speaking."

"……Oh."

Duan Yu, who is strong and strong, with muscle bumps all over his body, nodded aggrievedly and started to read the letter.

"There is no other information here. Could it be that Master is really disappointed in Da Song, but he is unwilling to admit it?"

"if it is like this……"

"Perhaps, I can send a letter to my uncle, asking him to send someone to invite Master to join Dali. Wouldn't my Dali be invincible in the world then?"

Duan Yu swallowed his saliva yearningly, wiped the corners of his mouth, looked at Lin Dong and shook his head and said, "Master, I don't understand..."

If you want to think about it, if you do it, you will do it, but if you talk nonsense, you will be beaten.

Duan Yu didn't want to be beaten.

Therefore, he hid his thoughts deep in his heart, and he was never willing to reveal even the slightest bit.

"People!"

Lin Dong patted the letter heartbroken, and said with such a silly expression on his face, "Are there any common people in Yongle City?"

"Well, it seems...not." After Duan Yu finished hesitatingly, he said firmly: "Absolutely not. From Yu'er's point of view, most of the common people should settle in the Border Guard City, right?"

"Isn't that right?!"

Lin Dong looks like you are a fool, so don't say that you are taught by a teacher in the future.

"What does it matter..."

Duan Yu wanted to refute casually, but in the middle of the sentence, he suddenly felt a flash of lightning in his mind, which instantly activated his zombie-like brain: "Since the people are all settling down in the border city, the battle of Yongle City Basically, it will not harm their interests and safety."

"As for these Xiang troops, since they built a city on such a dangerous terrain, they only used 5000 people to suppress Xixia, which means they are looking for death!"

He got it.

Although this battle was lost, and more than 1 Xiang troops were trapped, almost none of the people suffered.

This is a great thing.

The soldiers and horses are gone, as long as Da Song is still there, they can be dispatched at any time, and these Xiang troops are only trapped, but they are not dead yet.

Maybe, the two countries will resume negotiations after that, and the [-] Xiang army will survive.

In this way, the only losers are those who want to kill the enemy and make meritorious deeds, but are unwilling to make big bets.

No matter how stupid Duan Yu is, he also knows that if 5000 people were beaten by 30 people on the Xixia border, they deserved it.

What's more, he is still very smart. From this letter and Lin Dong's performance, he can see something else.

For example, is there some people here who want to win the first battle, but are unwilling to share the benefits with others.

This is considered to be rash and risking one's own death.

On the battlefield, the only end for this kind of general is probably to die.

If he is in a dominant position, this kind of person must be slaughtered.

It's too bad, it's just cheating.

If you think about it, you know that even if Xixia were to conquer the country, it would be impossible for people to gain a strategic advantage.

What's more, if you look down on others so much, you only need 5000 people. These people are not enough to dig a well, right?
"Yes, the common people didn't suffer any losses. The only ones who lost were those who wanted to make a big event. But the problem is that he looked up to himself and looked down on others, so he deserved to lose."

Lin Dong felt horrible when he thought that Yongle City had been besieged by 30 to [-] people in history, and in the end they could only rely on people for food.

Of course, 30 to [-] may be an exaggeration, but there are at least tens of thousands of people.

But now, it has completely changed.

In Yongle City, except for the Xiang Army or the Xiang Army, there is no Baojia (equivalent to Fubing, most of them are ordinary people) at all, and this stop does not cause much loss.

It can only be said that the guy who has been looking for him is a little too big, and at the same time, he is not suitable for employing people.

The big heart mainly means that he is ambitious, and he actually wants to take Xixia back, completely disregarding the threats from the left and right.

But the problem is that if it is done well, it may really work.

But here, Song Shenzong's biggest mistake was inappropriate employment.

He used Xu Xi who was confused in combat and could make the physical education teacher mad at mathematics.

(Battle of Yongle City, according to historical facts, the battle damage was 3 to 6 people, and the number of those who were finally besieged in Yongle City was about 30 to [-] people. However, due to political reasons (blocking reforms), this number was expanded to [-] Wan (I don't know who expanded it, Xu Xi didn't tell the truth anyway), Da Song was horrified and could only ask for peace.)
Putting chips on this kind of people, if the final reform can really succeed, it will definitely treat those who have exhausted their efforts to reform and succeeded in the reform, as fools.

Reform, that must bleed!
This point, whether it is the Warring States, Qin, Han, Tang, Song or any subsequent era.

It doesn't matter what country it is.

Not to mention people like Li Kui, Shang Yang, Liu Yu, and Emperor Xiaowen.

all the same.

Most of the successful reforms have shed a lot of blood.

If you don't want to bleed and reform, it will be impossible to succeed.

The reason why Wang Anshi almost succeeded was because he "killed" (mainly abolished) many people in the early stage, regardless of whether those people were the thorn in the side of Song Shenzong or not.

But he "killed" too few people, so he failed in the end.

The current Song Shenzong committed another old problem and still didn't kill many people, so he was doomed to fail.

"Next, Emperor Song should continue to use troops, right? Add another 20, no, maybe only about 10,000+ will be able to suppress Xixia."

Seeing Lin Dong's silence, Duan Yu asked tentatively.

"Continue to use troops?"

Lin Dong laughed loudly, tears fell at the end of the laugh, and then he suddenly became serious: "Use a ghost soldier, and then Da Song should sue for peace."

Song Shenzong wants to reform, and some people want to oppose the reform.

How to do it?

The battle of Yongle City is a contest between this change and the unchanged.

Because of this, the report on this war will definitely be exaggerated once it reaches Song Shenzong's Longshu case.

It must be a frightening number. Only then will Song Shenzong dare not reform again, and those with vested interests can sit back and relax.

Looking at the above, Lin Dong feels that the next summation will definitely be the same as in history.

"Master, are you saying the wrong thing?"

Duan Yu frowned, didn't care about being polite, and clapped the channel in his hand: "Yu'er is indeed from a small border country, but he also knows that the best choice now is to continue to fight. Even if he takes a step back, he should force Xixia to beg And, only in this way can the greatest benefit be obtained.”

"With such an advantage, how can we still seek peace? Not to mention the great power of the Song Dynasty, even our Dali can't do such a stupid thing!"

 Thank you "Drunk Cause" for the reward, thank you.
