Chapter 807 Court Discussion

What was just launched was a white phosphorus arrow. The arrow was a glass tube sealed with white phosphorus and kerosene. The production process was very dangerous, so not many were made.

Suyou is not meant for land warfare, because it can only deal with camps in the wild, and is of little use against cities with earth and stone structures.

After being reminded by Zhang San, Su You realized in time that in today's naval battle, all he had to do was burn the opponent's sails, and then everything would be fine.

So now these thousand arrows are just a small-dose test product. To really work, they have to be fired from a ballista and hung on the enemy ship's sail, and then self-destruct and ignite.

Fortunately, most of the stockades in Guangyuan Prefecture have wooden pillars and thatched roof structures, which are basically easy to install.

The fire in the village was getting bigger and bigger, and it was completely in chaos.

A commander rushed to Liu Ji: "Observer, this fire cannot be extinguished! Leave!"

Liu Ji watched in horror as several sergeants who were unfortunately hit by the arrows just now howled and rolled on the ground. The flames on their bodies were extinguished. Several sergeants around him frantically slapped them with their clothes, but nothing happened.

usefulness.

The flames burned bigger and bigger, and the sergeant's rolling howl gradually stopped. Such a tragic scene made a battle-hardened man like Liu Ji feel his legs trembling.

What was even more frightening were the cave barbarians in Guangyuan Prefecture. To them, the fire was simply a punishment from the legendary wrath of God. The five thousand barbarians shouted wildly and cut open the Jiaozhi troops guarding the rear, and headed towards them.

Rushing to the village.

Be sure to tell the village elders this news. The color of the Song Army's military uniforms is just like the fire they brought, which is unstoppable!

Yanda's eight thousand Song army stood there, watching the raging fire burning on the hillside, and Yaque was also shocked silently.

On the wooden towers and watchtowers, from time to time there were burning people jumping from the buildings. They would rather be thrown to death than endure the torture of being burned by the flames.

The army commander quietly asked Yanda: "General, what should we do next?"

Yanda wiped a handful of cold sweat from his forehead and smacked his lips: "After the fire is extinguished, Liu Ji's secret surrender letter will be posted everywhere, and at the same time, a proclamation will be used to inform the Jiaozhi Army and the leaders of the caves in Guangyuan Prefecture."

"You must come here to surrender within three days, otherwise, don't blame me for being rude!"

Two days later, Liu Ji finally made up his mind to surrender to the Song Dynasty, and he surrendered very completely.

This child is a partial master, mainly playing a role of echo, and his hands are not stained with much blood of Song people, so the psychological pressure is not great.

Not only did they arrive as scheduled, all three thousand Jiaozhi troops surrendered, Liu Ji even brought his own family members to serve as hostages to Yanda, and also brought the leaders of Guangyuan's Gu Nong and Ba Xi, two major cave barbarians.

and five thousand dingkou.

Liu Ji brought out more than 3,000 people from the Song Dynasty whom Liu Ji had previously plundered.

Guangyuan Village has been burned to ashes, with dark red charcoal still remaining on the huge wooden pillars.

The long procession passed through the charred ruins and gathered in the open space in front of the village.

Liu Ji's face turned a little pale. The fire was not scary. What was scary was that he had no idea how it burned and why it was so difficult to put out like maggots attached to bones.

Compared with that, the Song army's sophisticated equipment, high morale, and tall horses of the cavalry were actually less scary.

Yanda was riding on a big black horse, looking down at Liu Ji who was approaching.

Liu Ji felt a prick on his back, hurried a few steps, and knelt in front of Yanda's horse: "Liu Ji, the guilty minister of the lower country, pays homage to General Yan of the higher country."

…

Liu Ji's surrender greatly boosted the Song army's momentum, and the Li Dynasty was overwhelmed and rushed Li Changjie back from Champa to take charge of military affairs.

Thang Long Province, the capital of Li Yue.

Similar to Song Taizu, Li Gongyun, the Taizu of the Li Dynasty, was the commander in front of the left guard palace of the Li Dynasty.

After seizing the Jiaozhi area and establishing the country of Dayue, there was a rumor that a yellow dragon rose from the Fuliang River. Li Gongyun thought it was a good omen and ordered his ministers to investigate the place where the yellow dragon rose.

The minister came back to report and said that the place was a treasure of Feng Shui. "In the area of ​​​​the house, the sky and the earth, it has the power of a dragon, a tiger, and a tiger. It is located in the north, south, east and west, and the mountains and rivers are facing away."

Li Gongyun was so happy that he moved the capital there and named it Shenglong.

The Li Dynasty established a political system based on the Tang and Song Dynasties after the third generation of King Shengzong.

After Grand Master Li Daocheng came to power, he realized the importance of Confucianism in establishing a feudal unified country and began to implement the imperial examination.

The year before last, there was an imperial edict to select Ming classic scholars and three tests on Confucianism. Le Van Thanh, a scholar from the Dai Viet Kingdom, was selected and entered the imperial academy.

At the beginning of the year, the Imperial College was set up in Thang Long Prefecture, where literate civilian officials were selected to practice essays and evaluate officials with penal calculations.

The strength of the Li Dynasty can be said to be the result of Li Daocheng and Li Changjie's literary and military contributions.

This is a strange era. Regardless of the Song Dynasty, Xixia, Liao, Qing and Tang, there were women active in the political arena.

Today's Li Dynasty implements the practice of listening to politics behind the curtain, and the power lies in the hands of Queen Mother Li.

Li Changjie's majestic and resolute voice rang out in the hall: "Your Majesty, Queen Mother, 60,000 Song troops, led by Guo Kui and Zhao Man, captured Guangyuan Prefecture the day before yesterday. Guangyuan Prefecture's observation envoy Liu Ji did not hand over a single soldier or send a single message.

The arrow fell down on the Song Dynasty!"

A low exclamation suddenly came from the top.

Li Qiande's imperial uncle, the fourth prince Hong Zhenhou, stood up and said: "How dignified is this! The Song people haven't even arrived outside Shenglong Mansion yet!"

The court hall suddenly became quiet.

Grand Master Li Daocheng raised his hands and said, "Your Majesty, Queen Mother, it's not too late to petition the Song Dynasty for peace."

"Grand Master, be careful!" Hong Zhenhou said sternly: "At this time, is there any reason to make peace?"

Marquis Zhaowen of another clan also stood up: "Your Majesty, Queen Mother, the Song army is only 60,000, and it is a guest army. The journey is tiring and the climate is unaccustomed to it. This is the Song Dynasty emperor's arrogance. He sent people to death. We, Vietnam, surrendered without a fight.

principle.”

Li Daocheng said: "Song Dynasty has three hundred military states, and its national power is greater and more powerful than mine. If it is not a small country like Champa or Zhenla, even if it is defeated this time, won't there be a next time?"

Queen Mother Li coughed lightly: "Your Majesty, what do you say?"

Li Qiande sat on the dragon chair and glanced at the minister Li Wensheng. Seeing Li Wensheng standing there motionless with his head lowered and his posture perfect, he also lowered his head: "But it's up to the empress to make the decision."

The Empress Dowager Li was not a simple character. After the death of Shengzong, the Li Dynasty had a period when the new monarch was young and the two palaces jointly listened to the government behind the curtain.

The aunt's mother, the Empress Dowager Yang of Shangyang, and the biological mother, Concubine Yilan Yuan, were the two most powerful people at the time. However, Concubine Yilan Yuan was jealous and instigated Renzong to kill the Empress Dowager Shangyang and seventy-six maids, causing a tragedy in the palace.

Li Daocheng, the grand master who was in charge of government at that time, quickly entered the palace after hearing the news, but it was too late.

Li Daocheng burst into tears: "How can you kill your direct descendants and torture innocent people? This is all!"

Yi Lan Yuan Fei dared to do so, because Li Changjie controlled the military power of his toe. After the palace change, Yi Lan Yuanfei became the Queen Mother Li.

After that, the Empress Dowager Li believed in Li Changjie and rewarded it. Li Changjie did not let her down. She was crusade, and the prestige was healed, convinced that Hong Zhenhou, Zhao Wenhou and other mobs, which limited the power of Li Daocheng Wenchen and let The Empress Dowager Li settled in the position of the queen mother and controlled the government.

Just listening to Queen Mother Li said: "Taibao, what do you say about the opinions of the master?"

Li Changjie bowed and said: "Queen Mother, His Majesty, what Taishi said, it is indeed real."

At the court, there was a buzzing voice.

Li Changjie only glanced at the temple, and the palace was silent.

Li Changjie then said: "What the master said is indeed reasonable, but His Majesty, Queen Mother, how to analyze this."

"This time, I went to the soldiers, and went to the three states in January.

"In addition to attacking me, I have also entered the Song Dynasty in addition to attacking me.

"The main force of the Song Dynasty, in the northwest, northeast, as for the south, now I can say that they are empty, and the whip is overwhelmed."

"This time Song Jun came south, there are 60,000 inherently, but where does it come from?"

"The north of the two roads in Guangnan is Jinghu; the north of Jinghu, the north of the Sichuan Gorge; the north of Sichuan Gorge is Shaanxi."
