The truth is very simple, but people's cognition is different, and the same thing will bring about fundamental differences.

When Luo Rufang took Yang Yinglong to persuade Wang Ning, the governor who was unwilling to move troops to the west, the old governor stopped Yang Yinglong with only one sentence.

Wang Ning asked: "If they are attached or not, what does it have to do with the imperial court?" ”

"The state and dynasty have their own rules and regulations for restricting the Xuanwei Division, and he will be attached if he wants to, and if he wants not to be attached, he will not be attached? The reckless thief enters the prison, it is a war; First help Xuanwei Division and then attack the reckless thief, it is two battles, and whether the reckless thief enters the coward or not is still in two matters, but if he is appeased, he does not dare to come to Yunnan for trouble. ”

"The two battles used 100,000 soldiers, and the dispatch of money and grain is so huge that relying on taxes in Yunnan Province alone cannot afford to fight this war for ten years."

Wang Ning looked helpless and wanted to laugh but held back, looked at Luo Rufang and Yang Yinglong's dejected appearance, waved his hand and said: "Let Mang Yinglong make trouble, let's not send troops to fight him, he should know the kindness of the imperial court, and naturally he will not dare to harass Yunnan." ”

"Don't always think about taking troops out of the country, Weide has the responsibility of guarding Yongchang, but now that General Yang is here, you can rest assured that you will lecture and educate the people."

Weide is Luo Rufang's word, at this time, Wang Ning did not mention the official position list and said the word, which is not only a personal treatment, but also a soft word to convey hard meaning.

"General Yang led his troops far away, didn't he just say that he wanted to move the defense half a month ago, and the old man allowed you to move the defense." Wang Ning squeezed the big sleeves of his official robe and opened his eyes wide, "Settle down, let's repair the Divine Protector Pass, and report what you need to the governor's yamen, and all the prefectures and toasts in Yunnan will cooperate with you." ”

"If Mang Yinglong really dares to attack Meng Yang, you will let Sigu retreat to Yongchang to recuperate, the old man doesn't believe that he dares to chase in, if he really dares to enter, let go and teach a lesson!"

The words were just stiff, and then the old governor snorted again, raised his finger and said with a smile: "But just one point, if he wants to retreat, don't pursue it, just write a notice and pass it to him, how to repay the merit when the time comes, as long as you can get by, the old man will not embarrass you above." ”

Yang Yinglong dared to make a mistake in front of the military attache's yamen, and the governor of a province was in front of him, no matter how unhappy he was, he didn't dare to say much, but he looked at Luo Rufang with a silent sigh, looking extremely helpless.

Luo Rufang couldn't listen to it anymore, the old man stared at his white beard and shook angrily, and said: "Wang Futai, that's not what you say, and it's not like that, according to your meaning, the three announcements and six comforts of the national dynasty are left outside to be attacked by Mang Yinglong, can you bear the responsibility of losing the land on your shoulders?" ”

"What is the loss of land, is Myanmar not the Department of Comfort? It's not a foreign invasion! ”

Wang Ning pursed her lips, slapped her withered palm on the tea case, and said, "Or has Yunnan been able to control the three propaganda and six comforts over the years?" ”

"Lost land, if you really want to say lost land, it was lost decades ago!"

Three Xuan and Six Comforts, which have always been similar to the meaning of Jianzhou in the Northeast, are all tributes that should be paid, anyway, the imperial court only needs them to pay tribute, and the inside is a pot of porridge.

The only difference between the southwest and the northeast is that the northeast is closer to the Beijing division, so there is Liaodong as a military town, and there will be Zhang Chengliang and Wang Chengliang without Li Chengliang.

The southwest is different, Mang Yinglong called himself the king of the white elephant in the letters he handed over to others, and the officials in Yunnan still felt that the three propaganda and six consolations were civil wars.

"At this time, the imperial court has three accounts, and the political affairs of Yunnan have been interfered with due to preparations for war. When is this happening, Zhang Ge Lao wants to take the test, and if he doesn't do well, he will be redundant! ”

"When the imperial court is implementing the new law, Weide is also Zhang Gelao's confidant, don't you know what is most important at this time? Safety, peace and security are the most important! ”

"How many years can the old man stay in the local office? What you want is also peace, you may not have merit if you defeat without authorization, if you are defeated, let Mang Yinglong enter Yunnan, then it is really a loss of land! ”

Governor Wang Ning really felt physically and mentally exhausted, these two people were more uneasy than the other, and they had all the good things to say, and they didn't bother to say anything soft to the two at this time, so Luo Rufang stopped Luo Rufang from wanting to speak again, and said: "This matter is decided, before Liu Weiming came back from Annan, the old man decided all the military affairs. ”

"If Mang Yinglong attacks Mengyang, let Sigu avoid Yongchang Mansion, and the soldiers and horses of the imperial court will not go out to protect the pass, and the second will not enter Longchuan, no one will say that it is useless!"

"Unless you can call Liu Xian back from Annan now, there is a police officer in the southwest who reported him to the imperial court, let him come back and clean up the mess, the old man is tired, you can go."

Picking up the teacup, Wang Ning took a sip with the boss's unhappy expression, his eyes swept over the two of them, he didn't understand, why is it so difficult for people to take care of their own affairs?

The top boss had spoken, and Luo Rufang couldn't say more, shook her head and let out a long breath, bowed to the governor of the hall, and left with Yang Yinglong.

Approaching the threshold, Yang Yinglong stood still, only two breaths, I don't know what to remember, turned his head and walked towards Wang Ning again, hugged his fists and said: "Lord Governor, there is still a word below, I hope the adults can listen." ”

Wang Ning frowned, and was about to open his mouth to reprimand, but heard Yang Yinglong say: "You are worried about the misery of the people, and you don't want to raise troops without authorization, but when the traitorous people harm others, they will not scruple about this, just as Yang has never felt that it is wrong to serve the craftsman, and Mang Yinglong will not feel that it is wrong to harm others." ”

"If he doesn't fight Yunnan, it can only be that he can't fight, and it's definitely not that he doesn't want to fight."

"Now that the adults have decided to strike backwards, they will strictly repair the customs and defenses to prepare for the big war, but if the reckless Yinglong fights, he must be well prepared, and the adults still need to be prepared!"

"Say goodbye below."

Walking out of the yamen, Yang Yinglong and Luo Rufang looked at each other without saying a word, they could both see the bitterness in each other's eyes, and the Miao warrior who was already waiting outside the yamen and rode a Dian horse stepped forward quickly and whispered a few words, which made Yang Yinglong's face change greatly.

Seeing this, Luo Rufang asked, "How?" ”

Yang Yinglong turned his head, looked at the government office that was temporarily the governor's yamen, and said: "Sigu came with news that Mang Yinglong's envoy was killed and ashamed and angry, saying that he would raise 100,000 soldiers and crusade against Mengyang Xuanwei Division. ”

Sigu asked him for help.

It's coming so fast!

Luo Rufang had no choice but to let the people of Mengyang retreat to Yongchang, I will go and inform the governor of this news, what are you going to do?" ”

"Meng Yang is not without the strength to fight, Futai has said so, what can I do if I am soft-spoken?"

Yang Yinglong was not convinced, he risked life and death to pull Sigu into the camp of the imperial court to fight against Burma, and now he changed to rescue not to rescue, but he was afraid that Sigu would be ruthless and vote for Mang Yinglong again.

"The army can't be dispatched, but now the Divine Protector Pass has to ask the deputy envoy to send troops to assist in the defense."

Luo Rufang immediately shouted: "General Yang, without an order, you can't bring troops into Mengyang without permission, your mission is to build a divine guard!" It's going to be a head-off! ”

"I know, do you want to build a god's protector?"

Yang Yinglong chuckled, and said angrily: "I am an inexhaustible craftsman in Banzhou, Yang is a local official, and he doesn't know what is afraid of the people's misery, but he promised Sigu that he would beat Mang Yinglong, even if he moved the city to the west for thirty miles, he would also beat him!" ”

As he spoke, Yang Yinglong smiled and waved his hand to the attendant warrior who was holding the Dian horse: "The Banzhou army is not only subject to the orders of the Yunnan region, but also to be controlled by the governor of the left army. Go, inform Annan Liu Shuai of this news, and ask for a military order to aid Meng Yang, if you can't get it, you don't have to come back! ”
