Monument Yangmen

Chapter 680 Vigorous Shang Qingzi
Everyone was silent for a while, and then Wang Gui was the first to ask, "How many civilians will we recruit for this battle?"

This is a key.

Because at critical moments, civilian husbands can also be used as soldiers, as long as they are equipped with weapons, they can also resist.

Yang Qi said in a deep voice: "It won't be too much, it won't exceed [-]."

Wang Dan frowned and asked: "But as far as I know, Hu Hou asked the court for 20 civilian men. Why didn't they all go to the battlefield? With 20 civilian men to protect the transportation of the luggage, the relative luggage will be safer. "

Yang Qi glanced at Wang Dan unexpectedly.

When Yang Qi and Zhao Pu discussed conditions, although they didn't avoid others, most of the people who were able to stay in Yang's mansion that day were their own people.

Obviously, Yang Da, Yang Wu, Peng Pai and others would not deliberately reveal the conditions.

Then it can only be that Lao Yang told Wang Dan's father, and Wang Dan's father told Wang Dan.

Then Wang Dan will ask questions at this time.

There are 20 civilian husbands who don't need it, but [-]. Could it be that Yang Qi's brain is broken?
Sure enough, after Wang Dan asked the question, everyone talked about it.

Yang Qi knocked on the table and signaled everyone to listen to him, "The imperial court gave 20 civilian husbands, but these 20 civilian husbands are not all young and strong, more are a group of old and weak women and children.

I can't send a bunch of old and weak women and children into battle to die.The imperial court granted me the land of the two states, so I will assign these 20 civilians to Shuozhou and Huanzhou after I capture them, and let them live like ordinary people.

As for the [-] baggage civilians, they will be replaced by new recruits who joined the army this year, as well as [-] soldiers from the Jin army.

I will give them arms and, if necessary, call them into battle.

And after capturing the five states of Liao, the garrison will be handed over to them.

At the same time, I will order the recall of retired soldiers from the garrison to make up for the vacancies in the garrison.

In this battle, the revival army, ranger army, and cavalry army attacked.

The Datong army stayed behind, and the remaining soldiers of the Jin army were transferred to Fuxingguan to garrison. The city guards, yamen servants, and village braves were stationed in each city to prevent bandits from taking the opportunity to make chaos. "

The Fuxing Army, the Ranger Army, and the Cavalry Army, these three armies are regarded as the elite under Yang Qi's command.

All of them are fierce soldiers who have experienced many battles.

Yang Qi seemed to have recruited [-] regular soldiers, but in fact, he also counted the cavalry reserve who assisted the cavalry in combat, the soldiers of the Jin army who escorted the baggage, and the soldiers of the new army of each army.

The total force reached 16.

With such a force, it can be regarded as a match against the soldiers and horses on the southwest front of the Liao Kingdom.

Although some people have objections to letting the soldiers serve as civilian husbands, but listening to Yang Qi's firm tone, it is clear that the decision has been made.

It is obviously an unwise choice to jump out and sing against Yang Qi at this time.

Everyone discussed in a low voice for a while, and then stopped talking.

After a moment of silence, Kou Zhun thought about it and said, "Huhou said that 20 soldiers will serve as civilian husbands, and the [-] civilian husbands recruited by the imperial court will be assigned to Shuozhou and Huanzhou?"

Yang Qi nodded, "Not bad."

Kou Zhun said in a deep voice: "Can we do this? During the conquest of Shuozhou and Huanzhou, 20 civilians temporarily recruited by the imperial court will help us transport our luggage.

These two prefectures are not far from Fuxingguan. When the army conquered these two prefectures, they basically gathered together, so there was not much danger.

After these two prefectures are cleared, the old and weak women and children among the civilian husbands can be resettled nearby, and then the young and strong can continue to be civilian husbands, transporting luggage and hoarding from Fuxingguan to Shuozhou and Huanzhou.

The [-] soldiers we have recruited to serve as civilian husbands can only be responsible for escorting the baggage transported to the front lines of Yunzhou, Yingzhou, and Wuzhou.

In this way, the baggage transportation line will be greatly reduced, and the danger will also be reduced. "

Before Yang Qi could speak, Wang Dan interrogated: "It is true that the transportation line for the luggage is shortened, but if there is no heavy force to suppress the rear, once the Liao people in Shuozhou and Huanzhou take the opportunity to make trouble, how will we solve it?"

Kou Zhun was about to open his mouth to refute immediately, but he didn't say what he said.

Although there is only one word, it weighs as much as a thousand catties.

Shang Qingzi calmly said that word for Kou Zhun.

"kill!"

The flat voice was full of murderous intent.

Anyone who knows Shang Qingzi knows that this guy is a cold-faced murderer, and he never jokes with others, just saying whatever he says.

Once the word "kill" comes out, it represents how many Liao people's lives will be harvested.

Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, and they all chose to remain silent.

Only Wang Dan frowned and said, "Does this hurt the harmony of heaven?"

Then he was cared by everyone with the eyes of seeing mentally retarded.

Only then did Wang Dan realize that he had said something stupid.

It is the duty of a saint to sympathize with the enemy, and there is no saint next to him.

Either a killer who has been fighting on the battlefield for many years, or a scumbag who has been invading officialdom for many years.

Each one is either black-hearted or black-bellied.

How is it possible to be kind to the enemy?
Only Wang Dan, a stunned young man with a high self-confidence, would say such a thing.

Shang Qingzi's utterance set the tone for the conquest of the five prefectures of the Liao Kingdom. The solution to the Liao people taking the opportunity to cause chaos was decided so simply.

The supply problem has been temporarily resolved, so there are only combat deployments and governance issues in Shuozhou and Huanzhou.

Due to the governance issues of Shuozhou and Huanzhou, the generals did not participate.

Kou Zhun, Lu Duan, and Xiang Minzhong worked together to deduce a good governance method.

The two prefectures of Shuohuan are not very big, and the two prefectures combined can just form a prefecture.

The meaning of the three people is that once Shuohuan and Shuohuan prefectures are pacified, they can be built as a prefecture.

Wang Dan temporarily acted as the magistrate of Fuxing Prefecture, and Chen Yao served as the magistrate of the newly constructed prefecture.

At the same time, some officials were transferred from each government to quickly stabilize the place after the army cleaned up the land of the two states.

And collect clothing, money, food and other items from various governments and send them to the two states to stabilize the people in the two states as soon as possible.

For those wealthy families who voted for the Liao people, the three of them suggested appeasement, but Yang Qi rejected it.

Yang Qi didn't have the heart to follow those grass and ink marks on the wall that were swaying in the wind because of their family and career.

Hit the local tyrants and divide the fields.

The fields of these wealthy families, as well as those of the Liao people, were distributed to the folk husbands from the Song Dynasty.

A one-piece execution of dissatisfaction.

Under the general trend, there is no need to keep all the grass on the wall, and it is better to kill it for peace of mind and clean it.

Everyone also felt Yang Qi's murderous intent, so they didn't dare to touch Yang Qi's brow.

The battle plan was customized by the generals, and the civil servants gave some assistance.

The task given by the imperial court was to march from Chenjiakou to conquer the five states in the southwest of Liao.

Shuozhou and Huanzhou are the two closest states to Chenjiakou, or Fuxingguan.

Shuozhou is the closest.

Therefore, after discussion, the generals decided to take Shuozhou first, and then fight Huanzhou.

After conquering Huanzhou, some soldiers and horses rested, and some soldiers and horses made a surprise attack on Yingzhou.

After taking Yingzhou, join forces to attack Yunzhou.

Yunzhou is also the seat of Datong Mansion in Liao Kingdom.

As one of the five capitals of the Liao Kingdom, Datong Mansion will not only have the troops under Yang Si's command when the war breaks out, it is very likely that they will send heavy troops to support the formation.

Therefore, Datong Mansion should belong to the most difficult bone to crack.

The generals were still planning to continue making plans to surprise Wuzhou or Xinzhou after the four states were pacified, but they were stopped by Yang Qi.

What Yang Qi was thinking in his heart was beyond anyone's guess.

But the answer Yang Qi gave was to talk about it after winning Yunzhou.

Next, everyone gathered together to discuss some details.

It has been three days since I have completed all the details and accidents one by one.

Three days later, after everything was discussed.

Yang Qi stood up and said solemnly: "This may be the only collective meeting we have after the war. Once the war breaks out, as the commander of the left army, I will either rush to the front line or be dismissed by Your Majesty." He was recruited to the Xingyuan of the Chinese army.

At that time, it may be too late to call everyone again.

So, I want to tell you now, during the Great War, everything shall be based on the war.

Anyone who causes chaos during the war will be executed immediately!
Anyone who communicates with foreign countries during the war will be executed immediately!
Anyone who disturbs the stability of the four northwestern prefectures during the war will be executed immediately!
The above three items will be implemented starting today.

Some of you still have nostalgia for the old Lord, and I can understand that.

But during the war, if you dare to make a fool of me, don't blame me, Yang Yansi, for not being sympathetic. "

Everyone knows who this is talking about.

Yang Qi didn't call the names, which was enough to save face for them.

Three straight cuts, bloody.

No one doubted Yang Qi's determination.

After the meeting ended, Yang Qi invited everyone to have a good meal, and then let them go back to prepare.

However, there were three people who were left behind by Yang Qi.

One is Shang Qingzi, one is Yang Da, and the other is Yang Wu.

As the three main generals of the three armed forces this time, Yang Qi has special instructions.

Yang Qi invited the three of them to sit in the flower hall of Yang Mansion.

The thoughtful Cao Lin prepared a table of good food and wine for them.

After the four of them sat down, they first toasted and drank a cup.

Yang Da put down his wine glass, and asked first, "Seventh brother left the three of us alone, do you have anything to explain?"

Yang Qi nodded, glanced at the three of them, and said, "What do you three think about this Northern Expedition to the Liao Kingdom?"

The three of them looked at each other with blank expressions.

Yang Wuhao said angrily: "This is naturally a good thing. It can take back the land of our Han people from the Liao people, and it can also save the people who suffered in Liao. It will become five prefectures in the Northwest."

Although Yang Wu's words were a bit rough, Shang Qingzi and Yang Da nodded at the same time, thinking that what Yang Wu said was reasonable.

Yang Qi looked at the three of them with a smile, and said, "So, the three of you think that the Great Song will definitely win this Song-Liao war?"

Yang Da said in a deep voice: "Although I dare not say that I will win, the chance of winning is at least [-]%. In addition, we helped the court share one-third of the pressure, and the probability of victory should reach [-]%."

Yang Qi suppressed the smile on his face, and said in an unastonishing way: "Then if I tell you, if Da Song wins this battle, it will be the time when I die?"

The faces of the three changed.

Yang Wu exclaimed, "How is this possible?"

Yang Da also frowned and said: "The imperial court has promised you the title of king, and also promised to give you the Shuohuan two states. Will the imperial court break the promise?"

Shang Qingzi just frowned and didn't speak.

Yang Qi sighed and said, "Nothing is impossible. We are a thorn in the side of the court, but compared to us, the Liao Kingdom occupies the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun, which poses a greater threat to the court.

Once the imperial court recovered the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun, it would be difficult for the Liao Kingdom to easily pose a threat to the imperial court.

As long as the imperial court dispatched a small number of soldiers and horses to station on the Great Wall, they could easily resist the Liao people.

And the court that frees up its hands will inevitably pull out our thorn in the flesh.

With hundreds of thousands of troops attacking the four prefectures in the northwest from three sides, plus Xiang Minzhong and others cooperating internally and externally, what chance will we have of winning the court?
As for His Majesty's promise, it is simply not credible.

Our Majesty sitting in the city of Bianjing has broken his promise countless times.

As long as we can pull out this thorn in our flesh, our Majesty will use a perfect lie to tell the world what a wise decision he made a lie promise. "

Yang Qi's words are not casual.

There are many precedents of Zhao Guangyi reneging on his promise and gaining weight.

He must have promised to the queen masters of the Southern Tang Dynasty, the king of Wuyue, and the queen masters of the Northern Han Dynasty, who surrendered their kingdoms, that as long as you are willing to surrender, you can enjoy the glory and wealth for the rest of your life.

The empress of the Southern Tang Dynasty surrendered relatively early, perhaps he did not get such a promise from Zhao Guangyi, but he did get such a promise from Zhao Kuangyin.

Meng Chang, the subjugated king of Later Shu, probably also received such a promise from Zhao Kuangyin.

But the king of Wuyue and the empress of the Northern Han Dynasty were the ones who surrendered to Zhao Guangyi.

and then?
After these people were imprisoned in Bianjing, they all died.

At the beginning of his ascension to the throne, in order to appease his younger brother Zhao Guangmei, Zhao Guangyi also made a promise to pass on the throne to Zhao Guangmei after his death.

and then?
Zhao Guangmei also died.

Zhao Guangyi once declared it righteously in front of the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty.

I am not a lustful emperor, and there are not many concubines in the palace.

and then?
Anyone who knows the harem knows that Zhao Guangyi is a hungry ghost and a very good wife.

As well as the third prince who was blown up by Yang Qi, his preference for Liu E was probably inherited by Zhao Guangyi.

In short, Zhao Guangyi's words cannot be trusted.

Zhao Guangyi's promise is even less credible.

After listening to Yang Qi's analysis, Yang Da and the others frowned, not knowing what to do.

Yang Wu, who was impatient, said with a sad face: "If we win, we will die? But this battle has a high chance of winning. What should we do?"

Shang Qingzi's eyes flickered and said: "How about... when we are fighting, put some water... or stab him in the back and take the opportunity to kill Zhao Guangyi?"

Shang Qingzi's words shocked the three present.

As expected of a cultivator, he really doesn't care about the emperor's life.

Shang Qingzi doesn't seem to care if the world will be in chaos after the emperor's death...
