Monument Yangmen

Chapter 519 Gao Huaide is dead...

"it is good!"

Yang Qi ordered: "Send someone to pay close attention to Shang Qingzi's movements. If the Fuxing Rangers encounter any difficulties, report to me immediately."

"Subordinates obey."

Shang Qingzi and the revival rangers he led were not only fine, but also attacked two big cities in the Liao Kingdom in succession. This is indeed exciting news.

Since the war with the Liao Kingdom, everyone's gloomy mood has finally been swept away.

Yang Qixi raised her eyebrows.

Yang Dalang laughed loudly.

Yang Hong obviously relaxed a lot.

In his opinion, the task he was entrusted to help Yang Qi retreat from the enemy this time was considered complete.

As for his credit for this battle, he didn't say a word.

At his age, he no longer has much desire for money.

He doesn't even care about fame and wealth anymore.

Taking advantage of Yang Qi's happiness, he moved closer to Yang Qi's side, and said with a smile: "Qilang, can I talk to you?"

The smile on Yang Qi's face froze, he laughed and said: "Uncle Hong, you are one of the main contributors to the Fuxingguan battle. When I go back to rest, I will definitely hold a big banquet for you to reward you kindness.

Now that the Liao people have retreated, it is up to you and my elder brother to discuss and decide the reason for the closure of Fuxing.

Today, I have other ideas about the equipment of the revived infantry. I am going to go to the weapon workshop and find the masters there to study it. "

Before Yang Hong could speak, Yang Qi had already laughed and left.

As soon as Yang Hong reached the words on his lips, he swallowed them back.

He knew that Yang Qi was deliberately avoiding him.

Yang Hong smiled wryly and shook his head, found Yang Da who was still laughing beside him, and muttered, "Da Lang, how much do you know about the Southern Kingdom?"

Yang Da was obviously taken aback when he heard this, and said: "Nanguo... When I was suppressing bandits in central Shu, I had contact with people from Nanguo. I heard that Yi Xi, the leader of Nanguo, is a rare and enlightened ruler.

Not only did he quell the Jiaozhi rebellion and establish the Southern Kingdom, he also allowed the people in the Southern Kingdom to live a life without worrying about food and clothing in just two years.

Uncle Hong, what are you talking about Nanguo? "

Yang Hong pursed his lips, not knowing how to answer.

Judging from Yang Da's words, Yang Da knows very little about the affairs of the Southern Kingdom.

Not even as much inside information as he knew.

It seems that if you want to understand the relationship between Nan Guo and Yang Qi, you can only try to pry Yang Qi's mouth open.

Seeing that Yang Da stared at him in a daze, waiting for his answer, Yang Hong said something casually.

"I heard that there are several great generals in the Southern Kingdom, all of whom are surnamed Yang. I just wanted to find out if these generals in the Southern Kingdom are descendants of the Han family who were exiled from our Han land."

"Is there such a thing?"

Yang Da was obviously surprised, and he solemnly said: "If there is such a thing, I have to inquire about it. The seventh younger brother worked in Yongzhou before, and I heard that he still has some friendship with the king of the Southern Kingdom. I will ask him later, I'll tell you when I ask."

Yang Hong smiled wryly and shook his head.

Obviously, it was impossible for Yang Da to get any useful information from Yang Qi before Yang Qi was unwilling to expose it.

……

The news that Brother Yeluxiu, the great king of the South Academy of Liao Kingdom, had returned from Fuxingguan after a major defeat spread quickly.

Under the deliberate rendering of caring people.

The dissemination of news is also a bit out of shape.

Brother Yeluxiu led 15 elite soldiers for the first time, and later added another 15 troops.

It became Brother Yeluxiu who led 30 elite soldiers to attack Fuxingguan, but was beaten by Yang Qi and fled back in a big defeat.

The news spread to Da Song, and the people of Da Song were shocked.

In the past, His Majesty Zhao Guangyi, the Emperor of the Song Dynasty, led 30 elite soldiers to the north to crusade against the Liao Kingdom, but was killed by Yeluxiu with [-] Liao soldiers.

A few years later, His Majesty Zhao Guangyi, the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, led 40 elite soldiers to the north to crusade against the Liao Kingdom, and was killed by Brother Yeluxiu with 20 troops.

Then Zhou Shizu Chai Rong, Emperor Taizu of the Song Dynasty Zhao Kuangyin, and the current emperor of the Song Dynasty Zhao Guangyi.

The three, after 40 years, went north to crusade against the Liao Kingdom, but all failed.

As the saying goes, there is no harm without comparison.

In the past, Chai Rong and Zhao Kuangyin could be compared with Zhao Guangyi.

All three of them are losers.

So the eldest brother doesn't laugh at the second brother.

But now, with a force of 30, Yang Qi was still a recruit, and he fought against the [-] elite soldiers of the Liao Kingdom, and he actually won.

Compare again.

The gap is there.

All of a sudden, the Yang family's status began to increase infinitely, while Zhao Guangyi's status began to decline.

The people all say that the Yang family is good at fighting.

As for the fact that the Yang family occupied Fengzhou and Shengzhou and became the emperor of the land, in the hearts of the common people, it also became an act of heroism.

People don't understand politics.

They only understand one thing, that is, whoever is capable should eat meat.

If you have the ability to take the land back from the Liao people, it doesn't matter whether you hand it over to the court or play it yourself.

Those are all heroes.

All of a sudden, many heroes rushed to the northwest to join Yang Qi.

Simultaneously.

The news that Yang Qi had won 30 Liao troops at Fuxing Pass also spread into the Great Song Dynasty Hall.

After Zhao Guangyi and the civil and military officials got the news, their jaws dropped.

It was hard for them to imagine how Yang Qi used 30 troops to repel Liao's [-] troops.

They didn't want to believe it, but after verifying the news from many sources, it was confirmed.

For a while, the direction of the court began to fall to one side.

Some courtiers who were clamoring that they were going to destroy Zhe Yang's family after Gao Huaide and Shi Shouxin suppressed the Fu family's rebellion began to speak well of the Yang family.

They felt that since the Yang family could withstand the 30 elite soldiers of the Liao Kingdom, they could also withstand the 30 forbidden troops of the imperial court.

With the addition of a Zhe family, would it take 50 million troops to win?
The Forbidden Army of the Song Dynasty was mostly infantry.

Moreover, 50 million soldiers and horses went out to cooperate with nearly 200 million civilian husbands.

So many people eat horse chews every day, but it's all money.

Although the imperial court had recently obtained a sum of money that Cao Bin seized from Dali, it was still short of money.

A huge country needs money in every aspect.

From the moment they saw the money, civil servants had planned the money where it should be used.

For example, the dams of the Yellow River need to be repaired, the course of the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal needs to be dredged, and so on.

For the sake of the two generals who did not cause any loss to Da Song, but instead contributed to Da Song's prestige, it was not worthwhile to spend a lot of money to crusade against them.

At least in the eyes of civil servants, the Zheyang family did not raise the flag of rebellion or become kings on their own.

Those are all Song officials, and they are not worthy of crusade.

The civil officials advocated to appease the Zheyang family and use the power of the Zheyang family to resist the Liao State.

The generals kept silent.

Because the privy envoy Cao Bin chose to keep silent on this matter in order to avoid suspicion.

So they also chose to keep silent.

In Zhao Guangyi's heart, he still wanted to attack Zheyang's family.

On the side of the couch, how can others be allowed to sleep soundly?
The existence of Zheyang's family for a day is a kind of provocation to his majesty.

Zhao Guangyi quarreled with the civil officials all day in the court hall, and finally the two parties broke up unhappy.

After Zhao Guangyi returned to the harem, another round of beatings began.

Wang Jien waited on him silently.

Holding a memorial, Chen Lin silently entered Zhao Guangyi's bedroom and placed it on Zhao Guangyi's dragon case.

Although Zhao Guangyi was venting his anger, he saw Chen Lin enter the bedroom.

"Is it a report about Fuxing Pass? Bring it here and let me have a look."

Chen Lin picked up the memorial and put it in Zhao Guangyi's hands.

Zhao Guangyi opened the report with a look of resentment, just glanced at it, his pupils shrank, he took a breath and said: "That little bastard of the Yang family has a power that can wipe out [-] Liao troops in an instant?

This is real?Or the people below you exaggerated the abilities of that little bastard from the Yang family. "

Chen Lin bowed to the side and said solemnly: "It's true. The servants also know the seriousness of this matter, so after getting the report from the people below, they sent someone to investigate the matter thoroughly.

Moreover, they sent people to get some soil from Fuxing Pass, and after inspection by the master craftsmen who will be in charge, it was suspected to be gunpowder.

The slaves have also tried the gunpowder in the capital's Paofang, but it didn't have much power.

Therefore, the servant guessed that Yang Yansi should be in control of a strange gunpowder, which is extremely lethal.

According to investigations, when this gunpowder explodes, it produces an effect like an earth dragon turning over.

It can instantly engulf all enemies around it. "

Zhao Guangyi's face was gloomy, and he pinched the report firmly, "No wonder that little bastard dared to oppose me so blatantly. It turns out that he has such a magical weapon in his hand."

Zhao Guangyi was holding the newspaper, with his hands behind his back, pacing in the bedroom.

This is Zhao Guangyi's unique performance when he is meditating on strategies.

Zhao Guangyi walked in the bedroom for half an hour before he said: "If he really has such a magical weapon, I really can't deal with him for the time being."

"Oh!"

"What a nasty little beast."

Zhao Guangyi thumped the dragon case, cursed in a low voice, and then told Chen Lin, "Hurry up and send someone from the appeasement department to find out this thing for me. You must do everything possible to help me get this thing.

This kind of magic weapon, as long as it is in my hands.I can easily establish it, a feat that is a hundred times more magnificent than Qin Huang Han Wu.

At that time, who will dare to speak behind my back and say I am wrong. "

Chen Lin lowered her head and said solemnly, "Your servant understands."

The next day.

early morning.

Zhao Guangyi changed his attitude towards the Zheyang family yesterday, and half-heartedly agreed to appease the Zheyang family.

Zhao Guangyi promoted the title of Zhe Yuxun, and also promoted Zhe Yuxun's official position, acknowledging the Zhe family's right to rule Linzhou.

Zhe Yuxun's Founding Duke was promoted to Founding Duke, and at the same time, among his many titles, the title of Governor of Linzhou was added.

For the Yang family's imperial seal, it is much more interesting.

Yang Ye was promoted to Daizhou military envoy, a fifth-rank mighty general.

As for Yang Qi, he was promoted to Dai Guogong, ranked Cong Yipin, and at the same time, he was given the third division of Kaifu Yitong, and served as the general manager of Feng, Sheng, and Dai Sanzhou's soldiers and horses.

In Zhao Guangyi's canonization, Yang Qi, the little traitor, was raised high, but Lao Yang was held down very low.

Zhao Guangyi just wanted to use this method to disgust the Yang family father and son, and at the same time provoke their relationship.

Some courtiers questioned in the court hall, saying that such canonization of the Zheyang family would be too much?

As a result, everyone ignored it.

Because the courtiers knew very well that the canonizations of the Zheyang family were all false names.

First of all, the members of Zheyang's family have not received the imperial court's salary since they took Linzhou, Shengzhou, and Fengzhou.

Therefore, giving them official positions is just a false name, and there is no need to pay salaries at all.

Secondly, even if the imperial court does not confer the Zheyang family, can it prevent them from ruling the five states?

The answer is, not at all.

Even if the imperial court doesn't canonize Zheyang's family.

People are in the northwest, no one can stop them from doing whatever they want.

The canonization by the imperial court is just for fame.

It is also a kind of appeasement.

When the imperial court frees up its hands, the Zheyang family will definitely be wiped out.

The canonization of Zheyang's family is nothing more than a tactic to slow down the army.

Of course, both the courtiers and Zhao Guangyi kept their eyes open in the canonized edict.

That is from the beginning to the end, the Northern Jin Kingdom that was canonized before a word was mentioned.

This is the biggest foreshadowing left by Zhao Guangyi and Wen Chen in the canonization edict.

In other words, as long as the Zheyang family accepted the imperial edict.

Then, Linzhou, Fengzhou, and Shengzhou can be regarded as the territory of Song Dynasty in name.

In the future, when the Song Dynasty wiped out the Zheyang family, these three lands would be taken back in a legitimate manner.

The imperial edict for the canonization of the Zheyang family was drawn up very quickly.

When the court was about to disperse, the imperial edict came out.

Just when all the officials were recommending candidates to read the imperial edict.

An urgent letter of [-] miles was sent to the Chui Gong Hall.

Zhao Guangyi almost fainted immediately after looking at the letterbox with the red feather in it.

Where is the rebellion again?
Under the attention of everyone, Zhao Guangyi quickly opened the letter box and read the letter inside.

Unexpectedly, no one rebelled.

However, the news reported inside was indeed a shocking thunderbolt.

Gao Huaide died in battle in Gusu...

Gao Huaide is dead? !

Gao Huaide, the number one general in the Song Army, died.

Zhao Guangyi fell down on the dragon chair at once.

Among the many generals in Song Dynasty, Gao Huaide was his most loyal supporter.

Although Gao Huaide usually likes to do some small tricks secretly to eradicate some dissidents.

However, Gao Huaide's support for him has not changed.

When he ascended to the throne of God, if Gao Huaide hadn't comforted many generals, I'm afraid his throne might not be secure.

Now Gao Huaide is dead.

"How could this be?"

Zhao Guangyi sat slumped on the dragon chair, muttering to the sky.

The officials looked at Zhao Guangyi who lost his composure, and were a little confused.

They all couldn't wait to have a look at the eight hundred li urgent letter in Zhao Guangyi's hand.

Zhao Guangyi sat paralyzed for a full quarter of an hour, and then sat up after repeated reminders from Wang Jien.

He lost his mind and said: "Revise the edict regarding the canonization of the Yang family..."

　Insomnia in the middle of the night, read a chapter! (laughing and crying) I'm almost on my nerves!Lying on the bed, my mind is full of plots... I can't sleep just thinking about it... Don't feel abrupt about Gao Huaide's death. In fact, in history, Gao Huaide died at this time.Although the places are different, they all died in small battles!
