There was a loud bang, as if the thunder that only existed in the sky appeared on the earth.

The patriarchs, nobles and soldiers from nearly a hundred tribes in the mountains in the southwest have become familiar with such sounds during the months of fighting side by side with the Song Dynasty's official army.

From being panicked at the beginning, respecting him like a god, to now being treated as normal and silent.

There were even a few clever tribe leaders who, after seeing the power of artillery, managed to find out the principles of their operation, and even the components of gunpowder, and had the idea of ​​how to make their own craftsmen create such weapons. Larger tribes are not short of craftsmen, and there are also craftsmen who can cast bells, and the raw materials for gunpowder are not lacking in the southwest. After they were built, they were placed in their own village, and there was also a powerful tool to protect the family.

But today, the panic and awe of the roar of artillery was upon them for the first time.

People from the mountains could gradually become irresistible with gunpowder weapons from the Song army, but they could not regard the blood flowers blooming in front of the muzzle as normal and remain calm.

The smoke from the muzzles of the five cannons was curling, and the gunners were busy cleaning the muzzles and barrels. The death row prisoners who had been tied to the muzzles had turned into minced meat all over the ground. The wreckage on the ground had not been cleaned up yet, and a new batch was pulled up again.

The cannons could not help but roar, and blood filled the execution ground, but Kumamoto was laughing loudly, "Everyone said this is a good idea, right?"

Zhao Long, who was standing aside, nodded and laughed: "It's true."

In the scene where the Song army commander laughed loudly, there were hundreds of foreign chiefs who were pale and covered their mouths and wanted to vomit.

Looking at Kumamoto, Zhao Long's eyes were filled with fear. Those objects that had turned into blood mud and minced flesh were originally their companions, and they obeyed orders to go south together, competing for credit and spoils with each other. They were drunk for victory and noisy for capture, but now they have disappeared.

"Thanks to read the newspaper. Such a useful method, and thanks to the pseudo-emperor who could think of it, the so-called inspiration for innovation is nothing but like this, nothing more than like this!"

How did the fake emperor Yelu Yixin of the Liao Kingdom deal with his enemies? His methods were spread to the Song Kingdom through various channels, and then published in newspapers and spread throughout the world.

Originally regarded as evidence of the brutality and incompetence of the pseudo-emperor, it is now being learned and used by Kumamoto.

In fact, if we talk about the harsh punishment, the Song Dynasty was not inferior to the neighbors in the north at all. Extra-judicial punishments such as Lingchi and halved beheading have never been eliminated. In the criminal system, the death penalty was only to behead and slash, and the other more cruel punishments were all extra-judicial punishments. In the army, there were particularly many extra-judicial punishments. The civil and military generals of this era all had the same idea. If you want to shock the red guys who didn't care about killing and setting fire, you can only use more cruel means to make them feel scared. Naturally, there are more means to deal with the barbarians under your command.

Not only was the members of the foreign tribe who watched the punishment, but Zhao Long, although they were joking together, they couldn't help but feel a little chill in their hearts.

Only Kumamoto was completely involved, excitedly as if he was watching a big show.

He did not wear armor or official uniforms, and ordinary daily clothes looked like a gentle and gentle old peddler. But after all, he made the southwestern Yiyi bow down and the children of the barbarian family dare not cry at night.

‘Civil ministers…Civil ministers…’

The brides seemed like frogs frightened by snakes. Zhao Long looked at them and felt a little bit like that.

How could any of these famous generals in the world be together? Who would be merciful? If you underestimate them, you will naturally end up like this.

Zhao Long saw with his own eyes how Wang Shao killed the soldiers who had made good contributions in the past, and also knew how Han Gang made the people of Jiaozhi only grow eight toes. Kumamoto followed suit and tied the foreign people who had committed the crime to the gun gun. He was not surprised at all except for a little bit of rabbit death and fox sadness.

However, some empathy of empathy soon disappeared and grew up in the war zone since he was a child. Zhao Long always had the idea of ​​killing the unpleasant foreigners. His little feeling now is just that the means are too cruel.

If the barbarians in all directions are no longer a problem for China. One is education, which makes all the barbarians envy the civilization of the Central Plains and are willing to accept the rule of the court. The other is shock. With their brilliant martial arts, the leaders dare not lead their troops to rebel before the education is completed. This requires the court to invest a lot of manpower and material resources. Therefore, the Song Dynasty has always used the form of restraint to solve border problems and gave up the pursuit of expanding territory. Relatively speaking, Zhao Long still prefers his current practice.

"This generation is afraid of power but not be virtuous. If you don't beat him too much, you won't know what your surname is. It seems that the court has asked them for them. It's time for the general to deal with them. Now it's time to know what it is."

Some time ago, the court gave them too lenient conditions to let these foreign troops cooperate with the battles of the government.

The children of the tribes in Dali Kingdom were allowed to take their own gains and their wealth was allowed to be captured. As long as they were willing to send troops to follow the official army to move south to boost momentum.

Compared with the Nanxi tribes in Guangxi, which had been tempered by Hangang for more than a year, the Southwest Yi, who had been suppressed, suddenly relied on the Dali government for the use of troops in the court. Such a drastic change inevitably made the leaders of the tribe think that the court had to give them benefits because of the embarrassing situation.

Since they knew that the court was indispensable, there were naturally some people who would be greedy for the sake of gaining more benefits. Although the combat effectiveness shown by the government army made them afraid to turn against each other, they could not help but act recklessly during the action.

In order to compete for the capture, the tribes privately broke up and broke up not once or twice; and when they encountered the enemy, they immediately informed the official army to come to support him, and Kumamoto ignored this.

But Kumamoto's silence is just a waiting time to break out.

No matter where they were, the Han people could always make their lives better. Whether in Dali or in the barbarian tribes around their country, there was no shortage of Han people, and they almost all had abundant wealth. At the beginning of the battle to the south, Kumamoto strictly ordered the tribes not to plunder Han children in the name of the general manager of the camp. Any Han people captured must return their entire family and the elderly and strictly prohibited plundering their wealth.

At the beginning, every foreign tribe was honestly obeyed the imperial edict, but after a few months, someone finally couldn't help but reach his hands on the rich Han people.

But this time, Kumamoto did not think that he hadn't seen it anymore.

The alternating roar of artillery has exceeded ten rounds, and there is a thick layer of flesh and blood on the ground.

The three tribes that committed the crime, the leaders of their tribes, were tied to the execution grounds as long as they were in the teams heading south. Yesterday, Kumamoto wrote a letter, sending them to Huang Shang in a hurry to the rear. They killed all the people without leaving any chickens and dogs. This is Kumamoto's plan. He planned to use the blood of thousands of people to emphasize the status of the Han people.

As for the tribes of the three tribes, they were driven to attack the city and died completely under Longshou City yesterday.

Taking advantage of their sacrifice, one day ago, Zhao Long led his army to capture Longshou City, which was heavily guarded by heavy troops.

Longshou City is the last barrier to the north of Dali Capital. Since its construction hundreds of years ago, it has been with Longwei City to protect the most core land of the royal family of Nanzhao and Dali dynasties on the coast of Erhai Lake.

Longshou City protects the north of the capital of Dali, while Longshou City protects the south of its

Even though this land center moved from ancient Taihe City to Yangzhumei City more than ten miles away - the current Dali City, the status of Longshou City and Longwei City has not changed.

In one battle, the northern barrier of the capital of Dali State was captured, and a vanguard directly entered the abandoned capital of Nanzhao State. This war was clearly at its final stage.

Therefore, Kumamoto was not afraid of killing people, but also had to kill people. No matter how decadent the Dali army was, Dali was a country of thousands of chariots after all. Although he was unable to deal with the official army for a long time, the Dali army was still confident in dealing with the foreign troops who followed the south.

It was just as Kumamoto saw the Dali army's sneak attacks became more and more rampant, and his own foreign troops were often unable to stand the tough battle, so he found some reasons to solve those guys who were not good at foreign wars but were proficient in internal fighting one by one. No one wanted to see the stable victory slipped away from his hands.

The Dali Army is not weak. In the several confrontations since the war started, the Dali Army has learned the usual tactics of the city-breaking by the Song army. As long as the Dali Army retreats to the city, the Song army will immediately destroy the city by some means. Even the strong city wall will turn into gravel on the ground after a loud thunderbolt sound. There has never been a city wall that can be defended for three days under the attack of the Song army.

So after the Song army finally crossed the mountains and ridges and arrived at the core area of ​​Dali Kingdom, the Dali army began to make targeted arrangements instead of huddling in the city.

The greed and cruelty of the southwestern monks following the Song army south also allowed Duan and Gao Er clans to completely unite, and at the same time led to many tribes in the Dali Kingdom. The old contradictions were just small matters that were not worth mentioning before the crisis of extermination. This most basic insight was often lacking in the Han people who claimed to be civilized, but this time, the monarch and ministers of Dali Kingdom gave Kumamoto and others a surprise.

The messenger who sought peace entered the military camp of the Song Dynasty at this time.

He did not take anyone to the execution ground that had not been packed yet, and Kumamoto met the envoy in the headquarters.

"I once heard that every household in Dali City is flying flowers and the flowing water is the number one place in the south. Such a beautiful scenery is destroyed by my hands. I really can't bear it. If the Lord can take his own hands and surrender, I will let this Dali City go."

The envoy was still a little brave, but he was not afraid of it. "The villain once heard that the country sent troops to invade the territory, and wanted to correct the chaos for our Dali Kingdom. I wonder if the Minister of the State of Justice asked my Lord to surrender today, but did he receive the imperial edict?"

"I know you don't give up." Kumamoto sneered, not grasping this little trick at all.
