"Danger is not an obstacle," Bai Yijie frowned and said, "The difficulty is to bypass the Mongols' harassment and re-establish the trade link between Xifan and Han territory. If we lose this only channel of contact with Fan territory, we will be useless to the Tubo people in Xifan. At that time, sending another 110,000 people over will not be of great use."

"So what sir means?"

"Participate the Southwest Yi, bribe the border tribes of Dali, and find the second path to Tubo from the south." Bai Yijie obviously had a decision in his mind: "The Southwest Yi has been neglecting the management of the country for a long time, and has only inherited the Tang Dynasty's ban and ban. Sichuan officials were satisfied with the peace and stability of the border and did not take any active actions."

"But in today's situation, once the enemy enters Sichuan, east and south of Sichuan will become a battlefield for competition with the enemy. At this time, effective work on the southwest Yi region can maintain contact with the Tubo tribe, and provide great help to Sichuan's defense."

"Although it is a good plan." Zheng Yunming was still worried: "In ancient times, the southern barbarians had barren land. Western Shu even had to let Zhuge Wuhou go to the front of the battlefield and make a decision before he could subdue the local natives. Today, the talent and intelligence are far less than that of Prime Minister Zhuge. It is even more difficult to create a new situation in the southwest Yi region."

"If necessary, I can walk this for the general manager." Bai Yijie bowed and said, "As long as the general manager trusts me."

Zheng Yunming hurriedly shook his hand and refused: "How can Mr. Labor take risks in the dangerous land of Xirong? If something happens, I will have to face condemnation of my conscience throughout my life."

"You don't know my temper." Bai Yijie smiled and said, "People think it's smooth, but I always think that there is danger in it. But I feel like I'm walking on flat ground when ordinary people are deterred. There is no problem with this. It's just that just restraining the Mongolians from the west is just harassment."

"What do you mean?"

"One wing can be controlled, but two wings cannot be defended." Bai Yijie said lightly: "Don't the general hear the story of Li Baogong of Shaoxing?"

Li Bao was once a rebel general active in the Jin Dynasty, and later served under Yue Fei's troops. However, his most famous deed was when he was the general manager of the Zhejiang Army and Horses. Li Bao personally led the ship north to the north, with 3,000 naval troops and 120 warships on Chenjia Island along the Shandong coast, destroying the Jin Dynasty's naval army of 70,000 and 600 ships, completely shattering Wanyan Liang's plan to attack Lin'an from the sea.

"What do you mean..." Zheng Yunming was shocked again. After entering the thatched cottage, Bai Yijie had surprised him countless times: "Attack Shandong by sea?"

"From Zhejiang, follow the sea route to climb Laizhou and attack salt fields, villages and all places with economic value." Bai Yijie said: "It is important to make the enemy restless day and night in Shandong, so that they cannot make any moves to use Shandong as a base to attack Huaidong."

"If we are bolder, we can build up Goryeo and Japan and promise to give us a generous salary. Let them send troops to attack Liaodong..."

Zheng Yunming only had a bitter smile in his heart. Regardless of the border between Goryeo and the Mongols, even the current Japanese country was definitely not enough to fight with the Mongolian cavalry on the mainland battlefield. The reason why they developed into Japanese pirates who later turmoiled the southeast line was largely due to the invincible emperor Kublai Khan twice to destroy the army in the expedition and brought the courage to the Japanese.

But at least at this moment, neither Goryeo nor Japan could cause substantial harassment to the prosperous Mongolian army.

But we cannot deny Bai Yijie's plan on this point. All this is not impossible to implement, as long as...

"As long as there are suitable ocean ships, this is not a problem." Zheng Yunming looked up and said: "But with the long-sea ships currently owned by the country, the manpower and material resources that may be lost to implement this strategy are too large, so large that we cannot bear it."

"But don't worry, sir, I think the craftsmen in Mingzhou are racking their brains to transform the long-sea ships." Zheng Yunming said confidently: "The moment of carrying out this plan will not be far away."

Bai Yijie turned around again to look at the young general in the seat. The Ba Ce in Lu was the one he worked hard for several years, studied countless ancient and modern classics, visited countless soldiers, scholars and people in the Jinghu area, and thought about the strategies for Pinghu.

But every time I took out these eight policies, I received only laughter again and again.

And those who laugh at him are the friends he admires and trusts the most.

"Traveling Nanyang? It's really a daydreaming conversation. It's already Amitabha Buddha who can successfully overcome the storm. How can he care about killing people and plundering the land?"

"What's there to worry about in Guangxi? The Mongolians just know how to ride horses. Could it be that all the fleshy people with wings can fly across Sichuan and go directly to airborne?"

"No, now these generals, let alone let them go north to harass them, just let them guard the coast without being scared by the salt owl pirates. Where can we find a wise and brave general like Li Bao?"

Every time he reveals his plan, he will be ridiculed, ridiculed, and even blamed by his teachers.

"With these free time, it is better to study the Four Books and Five Classics diligently and earn fame from the field of science. What is the practical use of planning these major national affairs?"

So gradually, he no longer mentioned these things to others, but whenever he was in the night, he would slowly write down these strategies and then silently put them into the brazier to burn them.

He could roughly understand the wisdom of several commanders in Jinghu. No matter whether it was Shi Songzhi or Zhao Fan and Zhao Kui, he could truly understand his strategy and then agree and put it into practice.

So he would rather choose to wait alone under Zixiao Peak.

Until Zheng Yunming appeared. At first, he thought that Zheng Yunming was relying on the reputation of the prime minister and son, gathered a few generals and some troops who could fight, and made some achievements on the battlefield for himself to be promoted quickly. It is not uncommon for the nobles of the yamen who took this path in the history of the Song Dynasty.

It was not until Zheng Yunming twice defeated the Mongolian army and Yingzhou eliminated Xia Quan that he had a new understanding of Zheng Yunming.

Perhaps this young man will be different from a disabled person?

At this time, the patriarchs of Baijiazhai brought with them with concern that the Mongolian army and the Song army were driving to Wudang Mountain at the same time.

This is a good opportunity to attract Zheng Yunming to come and pay homage.

But he himself was not sure that Zheng Yunming would be able to follow his strategy. Perhaps he also thought his ideas were just whimsical, just like others.

So Bai Yijie used many tricks to highlight his identity.

But after talking to Zheng Yunming, he felt that these tricks were not used at all. Zheng Yunming could not only keep up with his ideas, point out his shortcomings in his plan, but also propose solutions.

There are eight strategies in the Lunar City, and there are people whom I entrust.

Zheng Yunming saw Bai Yijie suddenly stop, and his expression changed. He didn't know where he offended the master, so he asked tentatively: "Sir, should there be something to say?"

Bai Yijie smiled and said, "That's right, there is still the last one that has not been explained to the general."

"This article has only eight words: linking Heshuo and raising righteous men."

When Yang Xuan heard these eight words, he couldn't help but shook his head: "This is all the old calendar of Shaoxing. Back then, the people were in love with the Song Dynasty. In short, they hoped that the king could recover their hometown and give everyone a happy world, so they could use their lives to deal with the Jin people."

"Now the north has been destroyed for a hundred years. If the people in the north miss it, it should be the Jin and Wanyan clans. They will no longer have any connection with the Song Dynasty. Seeing these hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses who have been exiled from the north, there is no feeling of their homeland in their minds. They just regard the Song Dynasty as a fat sheep that can extort money and food."

Bai Yijie shook his head and analyzed slowly: "My father only knows one thing, not the other. Although the Jin Kingdom is his homeland to the people in the north, the homeland is no longer there. The Mongols have been killing in the north for more than 20 years, but still do not know the meaning of the word "religion and forgiveness". Take last year as an example. The people who were captured by the Mongols and went to the north of the desert to flee the south along the way. The Mongols sent cavalry to chase and kill them all overnight and cut them down on the road. They also ordered that the people along the road not be allowed to open the door to accept the fugitives and give them food. As a result, many fugitives were starved to death. Who would not be afraid of all kinds of unkind behaviors?"

"So many people set up camps to protect themselves and raid the Mongolian army. It's not that they really miss the Jin Kingdom, but that they just hope to escape under the tyranny of Mongolia."

"The Jin Kingdom has been destroyed, and now the only thing that the outside world can help them is the Song Dynasty. Whether it is true love or false, as long as the court can set a policy to connect Heshuo. No, even as long as the ministers of Jinghu can make up this determination and send people to the north, perhaps they can provide a little bit of assistance to the heroes in the north. They will have hope. As long as they have hope, people will burst out with infinite motivation, and sometimes they cannot detect this power themselves."

"The easiest thing to grasp in governing the world is the heart of the people, and the most difficult thing to grasp is the heart of the people. Even ants live in secret, let alone the flesh and blood people? If you slaughter and intimidate, those who follow me will prosper and rebel against me will naturally obey. But this is just a fear of obedience under the power. When the people are desperate, the resistance will be ten times more intense than before."

"The ruling model of surrenders on the grassland, which is slave resistance and the soul of the dead cannot be directly moved to a farming country with a large population. Many people have made suggestions about the Mongolian ruling class before, and have taken some gentle measures intermittently, but their desire to kill has penetrated into the bone marrow. Once an unpleasant situation occurs, the first thing that comes to mind is not comforting but but butcher knife."

"In the past, Liu Xuande, the first lord of Shu, once said: "Just be brave and I am benevolent. Today, the Mongols kill people thousands of times more than Cao Mengde, and the fear and hatred of the people also increase thousands of times. At this time, as long as the country releases a little signal of benevolence and righteousness, this signal will be like Mars falling into the dry dry firewood, and quickly igniting the prairie rage of resistance on the land of Heshuo. At the least, it can burn a few beards of the Mongols, and at worst, it can trap him in the flames and escape."
