Chapter 306 I Don't Want to Marry You, Princess Duan of Dali(1/2)
Chapter 306 I don’t want your princess of the Duan family in Dali, just give me the dowry.
In the Imperial Study Room, the Ming Emperor looked gloomy.
Seeing Lin Lang coming in, he immediately stood up and said: "Master Lin, something big happened in Dali. Please ask for help from our Ming Dynasty."
"I have thought about it for a long time, and only Master Lin can solve everything by going there."
Lin Lang sat on the stool: "What big thing happened in Dali?"
The Five Immortals Sect is the only one in Dali Jianghu Sect. The other small sects can be easily solved by the local officials of Dali. Even the once powerful Iron Palm Gang, the gang leader has become the apprentice of Master Yideng.
Besides, Dali is such a big place. The monks from Tianlong Temple can go to any place in Dali within one day. How easy it is to manage.
The Emperor of Ming Dynasty looked worried: "The Song clan in South Vietnam wants to take the road from Dali and go north to Sui Dynasty. What can they say to avenge their son-in-law?"
"But if Dali really opens the pass, and one hundred thousand elite soldiers march directly into Dali, they can occupy the entire territory of Dali at any time."
"Even if there are passes in Dali that can block the soldiers and horses of the Song clan, they cannot stop the leader of the Song clan, Song Que. As allies, we should watch and help each other in accordance with the covenant in the credentials."
"It's just that the Ming Dynasty is also in a period of recuperation and it is difficult to mobilize the army, so I want to ask Master Lin to come over and stop Song Que. This will solve the crisis in Dali."
"With Dali here, not only can it help us resist the Song clan in South Vietnam, but it can also contain the Song Dynasty, Tubo, etc. It will also have a certain influence on the Sui Dynasty. There is no room for failure."
Lin Lang looked at the Ming Emperor and said as if Dali was very important, but with so few people in Dali, could it really threaten so many countries?
The Song Dynasty was not warlike, and the civil strife in the Sui Dynasty had not yet been resolved. How could it have the courage to go to war abroad?
It is even more impossible for Tubo, who are short of supplies and whose national advisers are all serving as elders in Heimuya, so they would not dare to send troops without Dali.
When the Song clan wanted to send troops, it was also to the Sui Dynasty, which had little impact on the Ming Dynasty.
However, he found that the Ming Emperor seemed to really want him to go to Dali. Is this what he wanted to do to distract him?
Then he would see what other plots the little emperor had.
Even if he is not in the Ming Dynasty, he can still know what happens here, including in the palace.
He really wanted to meet Song Que, the Heavenly Sword.
Only by fighting against opponents of the same realm, or even higher realms than himself, can his strength improve faster.
A chance epiphany may increase your strength more than years of self-isolation and hard training.
"Since His Majesty said that Dali is very important, then I will go and have a look." Lin Lang looked reluctant.
The Emperor of the Ming Dynasty was overjoyed: "With Master Lin taking action, Dali will be sure that nothing will happen, and it will also enhance the prestige of the Ming Dynasty."
"This time Master Lin is coming here on behalf of my Ming Dynasty. I have already ordered people to prepare the honor guard..."
"There's no need for a guard of honor." Lin Lang stood up, "It's faster for me to leave alone."
"If we delay any longer, I'm afraid Dali will have been destroyed."
Watching Lin Lang go out, the Emperor of Ming Dynasty said to the side: "Wei Jinzhong, ask someone to continue to Dali with the honor guard of the imperial master, and also inform Dali of the imperial master's departure."
"When we get there, let the national advisor serve as an envoy and have a good talk with Dali about some trade matters between the two countries."
After Lin Lang left, he could quietly improve his strength without worrying about being discovered by Lin Lang.
On the surface, he gave Lin Lang enough respect, which could also suppress Lin Lang's disobedience.
His Heavenly Wrath Mental Technique is progressing very quickly, and it may not take too long for him to become a true master.
And he had another plan to contain Lin Lang, which was to canonize Wudang Zhang Sanfeng.
There is no need for Zhang Sanfeng to take action, just maintain the name of a national teacher and intimidate other people in the world.
The people sent to persuade Zhang Sanfeng have already set off, hoping there will be good news.
The simplest form of imperial power is balance. He did not believe that Zhang Sanfeng could refuse the Wudang Clan's opportunity to revitalize.
After leaving the palace, Lin Lang called Wang Wu and others over and explained some things carefully.
Everyone's explanations were different, and many even overstepped their bounds, but no one had any questions and they all agreed immediately, even Shangguan Haitang.
He got on the sedan chair and left the capital quickly. When he left the city gate, Lin Lang looked back in the direction of the palace: "I'll give you the opportunity you want, but if you don't know what to do and insist on becoming a villain,
Then I’ll let you know the fate of rebelling!”
…
Dali, Tianlong Temple.
Emperor Duan Zhengming of Dali had a frown on his face, as did Master Ku Rong and Master Ben Yin in front of him.
"Three days have passed since the Song Clan's request to use the road. Now the Song Clan's 100,000 elite soldiers are coming to our border in Dali. Now the people in Dali are panicked."
"Master Kurong, will the Ming Dynasty help? Can they let the Imperial Master Lin Lang come over?"
Duan Zhengming was extremely anxious. The Song clan had not yet caught up with the food supply, but they might attack at any time.
Master Kurong raised his head: "We have the credentials, and the Ming Dynasty will definitely be willing to help, otherwise their civil servants will spurn the royal family."
"Imperial Master Lin Lang should also be here. He is a martial arts genius who has never been defeated."
Because Lin Lang is a young man, and young people are generally energetic.
Especially Lin Lang, who has never been defeated in these years.
Whether it was the Sword Immortal Ye Gucheng or the Meng Yuan Emperor's Master Jinlun Dharma King, they were both masters who had been famous for many years, but they were all killed by Lin Lang.
Such a person must not be afraid of challenges and must also like challenges.
So while others are afraid of Song Que, the Heavenly Sword, Lin Lang is certainly not afraid, and may even be very excited about it.
"So what we have to do now is to delay until Lin Lang comes over, otherwise our country, Dali, will be destroyed."
"At that time, I, the people of Dali, will be coerced into participating in the Song Dynasty's struggle for world hegemony, and the people will surely be destitute."
They had already thought of a way to delay. They told the Song clan that the Dali courtiers were discussing the matter of borrowing the road, neither agreeing nor disagreeing.
However, this method cannot be delayed for a few days. Fortunately, the Song clan's army has not yet been assembled. After all, the mobilization of food and grass is slower.
But when grain and grass are also mobilized to the border, the Song Dynasty must send troops at that time, otherwise a large amount of grain and grass will be wasted, and the Song Dynasty will not have the financial resources to send troops for a year or two.
In terms of military strength, Dali is no less powerful than the Song clan, with around 100,000 troops at its disposal.
Although Dali's troops and horses are slightly weaker, they can serve as the defender of the city and have city passes, which are enough to make up for the gap between the two sides.
The biggest difference between the two sides is the commander-in-chief.
In addition to the heavenly sword Song Que, the Song clan also has two great masters, the earth sword Song Zhi and the silver spear Song Lu.
The people from Tianlong Temple join forces to deal with Song Zhi and Song Lu, but how can they stop the Heavenly Sword Song Que?
Last year, Tianlong Temple could still ask for help from the Northern and Southern Shaolin Schools. They are all disciples of Buddhism, and they are all major martial arts sects, so they still have a certain affinity.
But now the Northern Shaolin has been destroyed, the Southern Shaolin is blocked by the Ming sect Zhang Wuji and others, and the Tianlong Temple has no relationship with Buddhism in the Sui Dynasty or the Western Regions.
The Quanzhen Sect, the Southern Beggar Clan, Wudang Mountain, etc. have not responded, and I am afraid they do not want to provoke the Heavenly Sword.
The only hope now is Lin Lang, the emperor's master of the Ming Dynasty.
Duan Yu lowered his head. He was called the number one genius in Dali, and his talent was even greater than that of Master Yideng.
Some people even say that he is one of the top geniuses in the world, no worse than Xiao Feng, Lu Xiaofeng, Zhang Wuji, Lin Lang, etc.
But now he realizes that those words are just flattery from the world. Let alone Lin Lang, even Zhang Wuji is far behind him.
He couldn't help at all in this matter.
Grandmaster is still too weak.
So what if you know the Six Meridians Divine Sword, you can't hit anyone at all.
While they were discussing, someone suddenly came to report: "Your Majesty, please report from the front. The Song Clan's army will be assembled within three days. If we don't give you a reply by then, the Song Clan will attack the city directly."
Duan Zhengming was anxious: "Find a way to stabilize the Song clan, and then send someone to see if reinforcements from the Ming Dynasty have arrived."
"What? The honor guard of the Emperor Ming Dynasty only set off from the capital of Ming Dynasty?"
According to this speed, the Ming emperor's army may not be able to leave the Ming border in three days.
Dali may have been destroyed by then.
All the words of helping each other are fake!
It seems that the Ming Dynasty sent people and kept the promise in the certificate of credence, but actually did not have to face the Song clan. It was really shameless!
"Duan Yu, go and force Master Yideng out of seclusion. Now is the moment of life and death for my Duan family in Dali."
…
Song clan military camp.
Song Que's face was neither sad nor happy, he just gently wiped the knife in his hand.
He didn't expect that someone would actually dare to kill him!
In this way, most of the Song clan's previous layout in the Sui Dynasty was abolished, but it also gave him an excuse to directly send troops.
"It seems that I haven't traveled around the world for a long time, and they think my knife is dull."
Silver Spear Song Lu stood in front of Song Que: "Brother, Dali will definitely not agree to borrow the road. I heard that they have gone to the Ming Dynasty for help. The Ming Emperor's Master may bring someone over to help."
