When the interpreter said these words, Li Yun was stunned for a long time. Lan
He has gained a lot of experience in the past few years. On Zhongdu Road, he had seen many merchants from the Jin Kingdom overwhelm their competitors by relying on the power of a noble person behind them. This was due to the heft and political potential of the Jurchen tribe's surname. In Dengzhou Sanshan Port and Mizhou Jiaoxi Forecasting Field, he saw the maritime merchants of Song Dynasty spending huge sums of money and directly using huge amounts of money to oppress people.
For a longer period of time, he traveled among the tribes in the white mountains and black waters, responsible for opening up the trade routes of the herdsmen, and promoting the majesty of the Ding Navy to many tribes. The savages are generally accustomed to the idea that the stronger will win, so Li Yun carried forward the majestic power of Marshal Guo with his iron bone flower.
After all, no matter where you are, if you want to accomplish something or achieve any goal, you must have something to rely on.
The Koreans crossed the border without authorization with hundreds of cavalry, which already made Li Yun dissatisfied. However, although the border between Jin and Li was fixed, it was common for border residents to cross the border, and the Zhongdu court never paid attention to it. Li Yunchu didn't understand at first whether they were showing off their majesty like this for some purpose or because of the stupidity of a small country on the border, so he didn't do it for himself.
Now it seems that they had a serious goal in doing this?
Do they want to intervene in the northeastern mainland?
What kind of madness is this? Why do they have so much courage? Lan
Li Yun couldn't help laughing: "Ask the master of your family to come up here. I'll have a talk with him after I finish the things in front of me."
He ordered an interpreter, and then speeded up his conversation with many tribal leaders.
This system of gatherings once every three months has actually not been established for a long time. The last meeting was to gather all the ministries to ambush and kill Zhe Farewell, and to reward everyone for their merits.
Because the rewards were so generous, many of the rewarded warriors returned to the tribe and had extra influence, pushing the entire tribe closer to Ding Haijun. However, there are often conflicts and even deep hatred among these. Before the Dinghai Navy can use their force, they must use some means to sort them out, at least suppress them to a controllable level. Otherwise, in the future, on a certain battlefield, two groups of soldiers suddenly fall into internal strife, which would make a big joke.
Li Yun made special efforts to arbitrate this in the subsequent meetings. After all, he had read a little bit of books and relied on the powerful force of Ding Haijun. If he patiently analyzed the situation, he could always make sense and make people listen.
His decision may not satisfy both parties in the conflict. Dajin is in the Northeast, and there are still forces such as the Northeast Xuanfu envoy He Shi Liehuanduan and the Shangjing Marshal Wanyan Chengchong. They have been working hard in the local area for many years, but they can't do this. However, the power of the Jin Dynasty was only backed by force, which was not as powerful as the Shangding Navy. In addition to relying on force, Li Yun could also provide a lot of money and materials.
If the two tribes put aside their vendetta for the time being and work together to assist Qunmu Station's commercial trade, the benefits they would gain would be huge. These benefits are beyond the dreams of savages who are accustomed to eating hair and drinking blood. Lan
Under Dai Jin, these tribes would fight each other over a bag of coarse salt. But now as long as the trade routes are maintained and the tribesmen dig ginseng, pearls or raise horses, the tribal leaders can enjoy gorgeous silks, exquisitely crafted furniture, and even tea and medicinal materials. How beautiful is this life? It’s so drool-worthy!
As a result, even if a certain tribal leader is dissatisfied, he has a reason to temporarily give in or be forbearing.
After the last meeting, all the tribes that followed Li Yun's instructions received tangible benefits, so more tribes responded to this meeting in May than the last time.
Li Yun originally wanted to arrange it to go to Gaizhou. After the meeting, he immediately responded to Guo Ning's call and went to Zhongdu to discuss the food shortage issue. But suddenly an urgent order came from the Marshal's Mansion, asking him to go to Goryeo as an envoy of the Dajin court. As he set off, he urgently notified all ministries and set the meeting location at Posu Road on the Jinli border.
This time, the tribes at the gathering not only brought up long-standing conflicts, but also people came to Li Yun with the fights that had occurred in the tribes in the past three months, or the new grudges between different tribes.
Li Yun specially brought an official who was familiar with the laws of Taihe into his team this time. He was also really crisp and clear. After listening to a few sentences, he would go into a few more details on both sides. Then he would ask what Daikin's laws were, and he would immediately decide what was right and wrong.
There was no room for evasion in the decision. Those who deserved compensation for their losses would be compensated on the spot; those who deserved punishment were immediately pushed to the ground and beaten with big sticks; those who deserved to be killed were dragged out and beheaded. Lan
Such a thing that despises human life would probably cause an uproar in the Han'er territory of the Central Plains. But the savages have lived like beasts for hundreds of years, and human life is not valuable, and may not even be as valuable as a horse or a hound.
In a moment, seven or eight steaming heads were brought up, and according to the rules of the Ding Navy, they were hung on poles one by one, with blood flowing down. The tribal leaders resolved their conflicts and began to swear to Li Yun that they would unite and cooperate to mobilize the goods needed by the military government.
In less than half an hour, everything was arranged.
The tribal leaders shouted happily to each other, planning to stay here for one night, then light a bonfire, drink wine, eat meat, and dance outside.
Li Yun took the skin bag filled with water and drank to his fill. He turned to look at the Korean on the side, and then was stunned again.
That team of Goryeo cavalry should have two leaders. Among them, the one named Jin is particularly fierce, while the one named Cui is a bit more elegant. Just now, Li Yun asked the interpreter to call them. The two of them came, but they stood a few feet apart, as if they were not in the same group.
"You two just asked why you were not informed of this matter in the northeastern hinterland, right?" Lan
Jin Mingde turned to look at Cui Junwen and was stunned for a moment when he found that Cui Junwen had taken several steps away without knowing it.
Cui Junwen forced a smile on his face and nodded to Jin Mingde.
Jin Mingde felt a little contemptuous.
It's obvious that Cui Junwen didn't dare to say harsh words, so he was hiding nearby. Do you think I don't understand? This kind of military ministers who have been passed down from generation to generation have never really fought with others. Their timidity and character are almost the same as those of civil servants, and they definitely do not have the courage that a military man should have!
He turned back and said to Li Yun: "That's right! Even if you are an envoy from the Kingdom of Heaven, you still have to give me an explanation for this matter. I can't explain the truth, but my Prime Minister Cui will be unhappy!"
Li Yun couldn't help but laugh again: "Ah, yes, yes, it's time to explain the truth clearly."
He changed into a more comfortable position, leaned on a few bags of luggage behind him, and said slowly: "The interior of Northeast China is the territory of Daijin, and all departments in the Northeast obey the orders of Marshal Guo. The biggest reason why we are Marshal Mansion is that no one dares to disobey , whoever will die." Lan
Jin Mingde was stunned: "Where do your words put our country of Korea?"
"Goryeo is a vassal of Dai Jin. Today, the Kingdom of Great Jin has thousands of miles of territory and hundreds of thousands of braves, all under the command of my Marshal Guo. Then, Goryeo must also obey the orders of Marshal Guo. The principle is still the same. Who doesn't accept it? , whoever will die."
Li Yun paused and asked, "Are you convinced?"
"Fart!" Jin Mingde heard the interpreter's trembling voice and just cursed.
The interpreter did not dare to paraphrase this sentence, and said with a sad face: "Ahem, messenger from the Kingdom of Heaven, my general has scolded you, old man."
"That means you are not convinced." Li Yun nodded heavily.
Ding Haijun has always relied on ruthless means to act, and has always been unfavorable. There is one tradition in particular that has a profound influence on Li Yun. Lan
That is when negotiating with others, talking in vain is a waste of time. The Ding navy officers who came from the lower class were not good at talking. If you can't reason with the person you're negotiating with, don't hesitate to cut off someone's head to clear the way. Generally speaking, once the head falls, everyone else becomes very reasonable. If you're lucky, there won't be any further conversation.
In Ding Haijun, Guo Ning did this; Wang Shixian, who is usually quite gentle, also did this. When Wang Shixian was negotiating in Zhigu Village, Li Yun was watching with his own eyes.
Since taking on the important responsibility, Li Yun has made great efforts to learn from these two men.
He was a good student, so he was used to doing this.
At that moment, Li Yun waved to the many tribal leaders in front of him: "Everyone, do me a favor. Take General Jin out and behead him."
While he was talking to Jin Mingde, the tribal leaders were waiting with interest, looking here and there.
Jin Mingde's arrogance is not without reason. It has been three hundred years since the establishment of the Goryeo Kingdom. In the past three hundred years, they had used tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of troops to fight against the Liao Dynasty and compete with the Jin Dynasty for supremacy. Lan
In the eyes of Daliao and Daijin, a conflict of that scale was nothing more than a border disease. But in the Northeast itself, Goryeo was already considered a behemoth, much more powerful than ordinary tribes. In recent years, Daijin has been weakened, and many tribes have turned to the influence of Goryeo. That is true.
However, when Li Yun asked everyone for help, no one among the tribal leaders dared to hesitate.
Now that Mr. Li has opened his mouth, can he refuse? The truth is very simple, if you don't obey, you will die. If the Koreans don't understand it, how can these tribal leaders not understand it? What will happen to those terrifying Khitans and fierce and proficient Mongols? The many high-hanging heads outside the city gates of Gaizhou and Xianping Prefecture are examples!
Dozens of tribal leaders responded at the same time and rushed towards Jin Mingde.
Jin Mingde was really brave. He raised his hand and punched Chief Tieli who was the first to approach, knocking his nose completely off. Two chiefs of Shiwei rushed towards him, but were kicked over by his sweeping legs. One of them had a broken bone, hugging his legs and screaming in agony.
】
But in the end, he was no match for his four fists. Dozens of chiefs swarmed up and immediately pressed his head and legs. Dozens of people shouted and dragged him out.
Surrounded by the crowd, Jin Mingde was still shouting to himself. After shouting twice, there was suddenly silence. Lan
The savages swung back, erected a new pole, and hung their heads on it. Li Yun looked up, frowned and said, "Can't the cut be simpler? His face was split open, what does it look like!"
Several chiefs looked ashamed and gestured to explain: "This guy struggled hard, and we lost control of our hands. However, there are still many Koreans here. If we continue to cut, we will not miss."
There were indeed many Koreans present, and Li Yun turned to look at Cui Junwen.
Cui Junwen's face turned pale.
Jin Mingde's sudden death shocked the three hundred Korean cavalrymen who were forced into the corner of the valley. At this moment, they drew their swords and confronted the surrounding savages. But their general was standing in front of Li Yun again, and they had scruples about whatever they wanted to do.
"General Cui, what do you think of my theory? Is there any merit?" Li Yun asked kindly.
