Physician of the Song Dynasty: Zhang Kai and Li Qingzhao have a private life-long contract

"Fan Aiqing found a way to alleviate the population crisis for the Song Dynasty, which was indeed a remarkable achievement!"

In Chui Gong Hall, Zhao Xu said excitedly.

Although this method used by doctors is quite indecent, and in the eyes of outsiders, it is the most evil prescription among evil prescriptions. However, for Zhao Xu, as long as it can solve the crisis of the Song Dynasty, it is a good prescription.

Fan Zheng smiled bitterly and said: "Wei Chen has no choice but to do this. This time, Wei Chen has issued a notice prohibiting scholar-bureaucrats from sleeping in brothels at night. I am afraid that I will offend all the courtiers."

"The brothel disease is prevalent. Fan Taicheng's move is also for the good of the scholar-bureaucrats. I believe they will understand Fan Taicheng's painstaking efforts." Zhao Xu consoled him.

As an emperor, Zhao Xu is well versed in the art of balance. Fan Zheng has now directly offended all the scholar-bureaucrats and has directly become a lonely minister. This makes Zhao Xu feel more confident in using Fan Zheng.

"No! Since ministers don't go to brothels, and officials don't go to brothels, then no one should go to brothels!" Fan Zheng said with a sly look on his face.

"Hahaha!"

Zhao Xu felt very happy when he thought that he and Fan Zheng would co-act in a play, which would directly interrupt the scholar-bureaucrat's path to a brothel.

When the monarch and his ministers thought of the dissatisfied but helpless expressions of the scholar-bureaucrats in the dynasty, they felt like two teenagers who had succeeded in their prank, feeling proud and secretly happy in their hearts.

At this moment, the friendship between the monarch and his ministers unknowingly took another step forward.

After a long time, Zhao Xu talked to Fan Zheng about the Battle of Dali, which was of concern to both the government and the public.

"Although Gao Shengtai helped Duan Zhengchun ascend the throne, the Gao family and his son still control the military and political power of Dali. The conditions of the Song Dynasty were flatly rejected by Dali." Zhao Xu frowned.

Fan Zheng sneered: "The Gao family father and son are traitors and traitors. Naturally, they will not let go of power easily. They dare not entrust their lives in Duan Zhengchun's hands. Naturally, they are not willing to rely on the Song Dynasty to give up a horse.

Zhao Xu nodded in agreement. As an emperor, he naturally had a deep understanding of this, not to mention that Gao Wentai also usurped the throne and became an emperor.

The struggle for imperial power was a matter of life and death, and there was no room for mercy. He believed that once Duan Zhengchun was allowed to take control of the power, not only would the Gao family and his son die, but the entire Gao family would also be uprooted.

"If the Song Dynasty had not intervened, Gao Shengtai might have been able to use his kindness to abdicate and control the Duan family court to preserve the Gao family. However, the Song Dynasty actively intervened in the struggle for imperial power in Dali, cutting off Gao Shengtai's last escape route. " Zhao Xu said.

Fan Zheng nodded and said: "Now Gao Shengtai has only one way to go, and that is to refuse the request of the Song Dynasty and repel the Song army! This is also the situation that the Song Dynasty wants to see. Only in this way can the Song Dynasty be justified. Attack Dali."

"However, the Gao family and the Duan family in Dali have been running Dali for two hundred years, and their cities have long been as solid as gold. Especially Dali City is said to be impregnable. Now, although the Song Dynasty is attacking from two fronts, the Gao family is quite determined to resist. The Song Dynasty I'm afraid the army won't be able to attack for a long time." Zhao Xu said worriedly.

Fan Zheng said firmly: "If you can't attack it, you have to attack it. Dali City is indeed difficult to attack. What about Xingqing Mansion? What about Liao State's Shangjing? Is it easy to attack it?"

Dali City is the capital of the Dali Kingdom, and Xingqing Mansion is the kingdom of Xixia, not to mention the capital city of the Liao Kingdom. In terms of national strength, Dali is the weakest party.

As Fan Zheng said, if the Song Dynasty could not even defeat the city of Dali, then there would be no point in destroying Xixia, defeating the Liao Kingdom and regaining the sixteen states of Yanyun, or even finally destroying the Liao Dynasty.

"Yes, the Song Dynasty must win this battle! Dali must be destroyed." Zhao Xu said firmly at the moment.

Just as the Gao family has no retreat, the Song Dynasty also has no retreat. This is a time of civil strife in Dali. If the Song Dynasty cannot destroy Dali in this battle, it may be difficult to find good opportunities in the future, and the roundabout strategy will suffer a disastrous defeat.

"I have a plan to defeat Dali." Fan Zheng said solemnly.

"Really?" Zhao Xu said in surprise. Fan Zheng's evil methods have never failed. He believed that with Fan Zheng's methods, attacking Dali would be more effective with half the effort.

Fan Zheng solemnly said: "This plan is called the "teaching plan." "

"A plan to help others?"

Zhao Xu frowned and suddenly said in confusion.

Fan Zheng explained: "The good office plan is a strategy of destroying weakness. The implication is to use surprise troops to attack the weak points in the enemy's rear. By attacking from the front and back, we can catch the enemy by surprise, attack him unprepared, and defeat the enemy in one fell swoop."

Zhao Xu couldn't help but think deeply.

"Wei Chen is a doctor, and he knows that the abdomen is the weak point of the human body. This is true for people, and it is also true for the country. Nowadays, most of the main forces in Dali are sent by the Song Dynasty to block the West and North armies. It is like punching with two fists, and the abdomen is empty. Big open. Now the rear of Dali must be empty. If the Song Dynasty has a surprise army on the east road to attack the hinterland of Dali, it will definitely defeat Dali." Fan Zheng said loudly.

"Eastern route?" Zhao Xu frowned. He followed Fan Zheng's suggestion and concentrated the forces of the Song Dynasty. He assembled a large number of troops and finally defeated the Liao and Xia. But now Fan Zheng once again proposed the strategy of dividing the troops.

Fan Zheng nodded and said: "Yes, the current east road is the weakest point of Dali, which is like the weakest abdomen of the human body. This is a conspiracy to relieve the abdomen."

Although the inspiration for the "good office" proposed by Fan Zheng came from the Mongolian technique of destroying the Yuan Dynasty, although the attack on Dali was aimed at the Southern Song Dynasty, it was just right for Fan Zheng to use it to deal with Dali.

Zhao Xu solemnly said: "Do you know that the Song Dynasty has surrounded Dali on three sides, so why the imperial court only decided to send troops from Sichuan, Shu and Tubo."

"That's because from Tubo, you can advance, attack, retreat or defend. Sichuan and Shu are close to Tubo, so food and grass are convenient. Although the east road is convenient, it is blocked by hundreds of thousands of mountains, making transportation inconvenient and food supply difficult." Fan Zheng personally participated. When formulating a great roundabout strategy to the south, we naturally understand the disadvantages of advancing from the east.

"Then why do you still want to..." Zhao Xu asked puzzledly.

Fan Zheng said solemnly: "It is precisely because it is extremely difficult to march from the east that Dali is unprepared. Since it is a surprise force, it naturally does not rely on food and grass from the rear. This is the magic of the conspiracy. Once successful, it will be enough to open the door." The Dilemma of the Battle of Dali.”

Zhao Xu's heart was pounding, but he said distressedly: "Although this plan is magical, there is no elite army in the south of the Song Dynasty!"

This time, the Song Dynasty focused its attack on the North Route Army and the West Route Army. There was no adequate preparation for the East Route and there were no elite imperial troops at all.

Fan Zheng shook his head and said: "Although there are few troops in the south, there are quite a lot of troops from the southwestern barbarian tribes. In addition, the original plan to set up a sugarcane farm in the south required a total of 30,000 troops, most of which were distributed near Dali. In this area, if tens of thousands of cavalry are mobilized from Kaifeng and a large amount of gunpowder weapons are brought from the firearms inspection department, it will be enough to form a surprise army."

"Qi Bing, I think they are just a ragtag group! Who dares to guarantee that he will lead this ragtag group to complete the conspiracy." Zhao Xu said with a bitter smile.

Fan Zheng's face became solemn and he said solemnly: "I am willing to lead this army to help your majesty decide the truth for the next battle."

"Fan Aiqing!"

Zhao Xu was shocked and looked at Fan Zheng in disbelief.

Fan Zheng was not incompetent in military affairs. Fan Zheng originally proposed to build Pingxia City and personally served as the supervisor of Pingxia City. In the end, he defeated Xixia in a battle and reversed the Song Dynasty's offensive and defensive trend against Xixia.

Fan Zheng once again offered his help and took the initiative to serve as the head coach, which shows Fan Zheng's determination.

"In the battle of Pingxia City, the Song Dynasty was in danger, so I let Fan Taicheng put himself in danger. But now that the Song Dynasty's reform is in the ascendant, I would rather not have Dali than lose Fan Taicheng." Zhao Xu was worried about gain and loss.
