Monument Yangmen

Chapter 825 Dog bites dog

Kou Zhun knew Yang Yanqi well, so he stroked his beard smartly, thinking that he could escape.

But he didn't expect to be seen through by Yang Paifeng at a glance, and his face was exposed.

Annoyed, Yang Yanqi didn't care about continuing to play prestige on the street, and rode straight towards Kou Zhun's Xiangguo Mansion.

Yang Paifeng returned to the camp of the Yang Mansion with the head of Brother Yeluxiu.

Lao Yang, who had already received the news, had been guarding at the gate of the camp.

When Yang Paifeng came back, he hurried forward and asked in disbelief, "Did you really kill Brother Yeluxiu?"

Yang Paifeng jumped off his horse, held Yeluxiu's head and bowed to salute Lao Yang.

"The child has met the adoptive father..."

Lao Yang couldn't care less about these customary etiquettes, he yelled: "Hurry up, hurry up... Show me Brother Yeluxiu's head..."

Yang Paifeng nodded, and opened the package in his hand.

A large head appeared in front of Lao Yang.

Lao Yang had already made enough mental preparations, but when he really saw Yeluxiu's head, he still couldn't believe it.

"It's really Brother Yeluxiu..."

Lao Yang and Brother Yeluxiu have been dealing with each other for half their lives, and they have fought against each other no less than a dozen times, so they can be called old enemies.

What kind of character Yeluxiu is, Lao Yang understands far more thoroughly than others.

The name of God of War in the Liao Kingdom was not blown out, but by brother Yeluxiu.

Otherwise, with the wolf nature in Liao people's bones, how could he be subdued.

It is such a character who has suppressed the Central Plains for decades.

After Yang Qi appeared, he lost again and again.

Up to now, the head was beheaded by two girls.

Lao Yang looked at Yang Paifeng with a complicated expression, and asked Yang Paifeng the details of beheading Yeluxiu.

Yang Paifeng naturally wouldn't throw flowers in front of Lao Yang, let alone exaggerate.

She truthfully told Lao Yang everything that happened in the ruined temple.

After hearing this, Lao Yang let out a long sigh, "Time...fate..."

After putting down four words, Lao Yang tossed his sleeve robe, turned his head and entered the camp without saying a word.

Lao Yang lamented in his heart that brother Yeluxiu, a generation of heroes, had come to such an end.

However, he didn't know.

If Yang Qi hadn't been born out of nowhere.

At this moment, the identities of the two of them are likely to change positions.

Yang Paifeng carried Yeluxiu's head, followed Lao Yang obediently, and entered the camp.

She Saihua took the other female relatives to the backyard and watched Yeluxiu's head.

Then, She Saihua asked Yang Paifeng to hand over the head of Brother Yeluxiu to Zamahe Qingmu, and Zamahe Qingmu sent it to Zhongyi Mountain and handed it over to Yang Qi to pay homage to the heroic spirit.

But said.

The four soldiers and horses of the Liao Kingdom attacked the Yan Kingdom together, and now the troops and horses of the four routes all fell to the Yan Kingdom.

Since then.

The battle of the Liao Kingdom to attack Yan has also come to an end.

however.

Even so, there is still a army of Liao soldiers who are stubbornly resisting.

This army of soldiers and horses of the Liao Kingdom is the ghost slave army led by Han Qiong.

That day Yang Qi bombarded Han Qiong's ghost slave army on the coast of Hong Kong City, causing more than half of Han Qiong's ghost slave army to be destroyed.

Han Qiong was forced to retreat to the sea, and assembled two other ghost slave troops who were sent out by her and were also maimed. They waved 20 troops and went down the coast.

All the way to Dengzhou in Song Dynasty.

Taking advantage of Song State's soldiers and horses to attack the Southern Kingdom, Han Qiong's soldiers and horses set foot on Dengzhou with almost no obstacles.

Dengzhou was originally a desolate place, barren.

Later, Yang Qi ordered people to set up a pier here, turning it into a trade transfer point between the Southern Kingdom, Song Kingdom, and Liao Kingdom.

This made the barren Dengzhou rich all of a sudden.

After Yang Qi established the Yan State, he withdrew most of the southern merchants here, and divided the trade transfer station into two parts, which were respectively located in the port city of the Yan State and Dongtou Island.

This made Dengzhou suddenly depressed again.

But even so, Dengzhou is still rich.

After Han Qiong led a group of ghost slaves who burned, killed, looted and did all kinds of crimes to Dengzhou, they completely let go of their hands and feet in order to raise military supplies.

The 20 ghost slave army moved from the front line of Dengzhou to Qingzhou, Jeju Prefecture, and then headed north.

The entire Northeast of the Song Kingdom, which was ravaged, became a mess.

Nearly a million people were displaced by the ghost slave army and became homeless.

Wherever the ghost slave army passed, it was like locusts crossing the border, scraping the ground three feet.

Not only that.

No matter how chaotic Northeast Song State was, Han Qiong smelled a strong counterattack against Yang Qi.

She ordered an army of 20 ghost slaves, engulfed hundreds of thousands of people, and formed a huge army of refugees.

The men under Han Qiong also reached a terrifying number through this.

Some may think this is an exaggeration.

In fact, this is not an exaggeration at all.

since ancient times.

Whenever the people rebel, and they can gather a huge number of soldiers and horses in a very short period of time, it is by coercing the people into soldiers.

Don't talk about the far ones, just talk about the near ones.

Wang Xiaobo and others who had previously caused chaos in Sichuan and Shu were able to gather a large number of refugees in a very short period of time, rush out of Sichuan and Shu, and almost hit Jinling, because they relied on coercing the people as soldiers.

Han Qiong has been familiar with history books since he was a child, and is extremely smart, so how could he let this trick go unused?

As for after the war, what will the northeastern part of Song State be like?

How could Han Qiong care?

Han Qiong's troubles in Song State suddenly caused millions of refugees in Song State. Refugees flocked everywhere, and some people took the opportunity to revolt.

The entire Northeast of the Song Kingdom suddenly fell into a precarious situation.

Even the refugees rushed out of Qingzhou and went south to Luzhou, Suzhou and other places.

It can be said that nearly one-third of the land of Song State has been affected.

In Bianjing city.

After Zhao Defang got the news, he almost smashed the Chui Gong Palace.

"Asshole! Han Qiong, a bitch, how dare you bully me like this?"

Jingui's jade and porcelain wares were smashed by Zhao Defang.

Under the royal steps.

All the officials, civil and military, stood bent over, obediently bowing their heads, without saying a word, listening quietly to Zhao Defang getting angry.

As for Zhao Defang's obscene words, they automatically ignored them, and even the straight-handed historian counted the floor tiles with his head down.

"Clap clap clap..."

Everything on the dragon case was smashed by Zhao Defang.

It wasn't until Zhao Defang reached out to the dragon case and realized that there was nothing to smash, that he gave up.

Zhao Defang had a dark face, gloomy glances at all the officials, and said coldly: "I must smash Han Qiong's body into thousands of pieces, so that I can relieve the hatred in my heart. Immediately dispatch troops, I want to personally conquer Han Qiong, and kill Han Qiong with my own hands." Joan the bitch."

When the civil and military officials heard the words, they looked at each other and continued to lower their heads like logs.

Zhao Pu dozed off there pretending to be deaf and dumb.

Ding Wei wanted to speak, but didn't know what to say.

Seeing that the civil and military officials were silent, Zhao Defang slapped the dragon case, "Why, everyone is deaf?"

It turns out.

You can never wake up a person who is pretending to be asleep.

Even though Zhao Defang slapped the dragon case, Zhao Pu was still dozing off. It seems that Zhao Defang may not be able to wake up after taking down the dragon case.

Zhao Defang wished she could jump down the imperial steps and slap Zhao Pu twice.

He glared fiercely at Zhao Pu who was dozing off, and his cold eyes fell on Ding Wei.

Ding Wei shuddered all over, and bowed out of the class, "Qizou Your Majesty, Your Majesty, you want to personally conquer and kill Han Qiong...I'm afraid it will be difficult..."

Zhao Defang stared, and said coldly: "Could it be that our big country can't mobilize an army to wipe out the rebels?"

Ding Wei said with a wry smile: "If you really emphasize soldiers and horses, you can recruit a group of soldiers and horses. It's just that Han Qiong is in Dengzhou and other places, stirring up wind and rain, and the troops under his command have already broken through dozens of Ten thousand.

Han Qiong is not Wang Xiaobo. If you want to deal with Han Qiong, you must have a large army.

At present, the soldiers and horses in our hands, except for the imperial army guarding the capital, the other soldiers and horses do not have that strength.

The most important thing is that we are now fighting against the southern country, and if we start with Han Qiong, it will be tantamount to fighting against both countries at the same time.

The front stretched from the southwest to the northeast.

The supply line alone is more than a thousand miles away.

Although the court had obtained some floating wealth before, it could not afford such consumption. "

In order to conquer the Southern Kingdom, the State of Song also invested heavily, mobilizing hundreds of thousands of troops and millions of civilians, marching from two routes to conquer the Southern Kingdom.

The consumption of food and grass alone is millions of catties every day.

Plus the cost of the road, and the cost of other military supplies.

The food and grass consumed every day is simply a shocking number.

The money that the court of the Song Dynasty stole from the rich merchants in the south of the Yangtze River is being consumed at a speed visible to the naked eye.

If the Song Dynasty started another war in Dengzhou, the consumption would be even more astonishing.

It is equivalent to the fact that the court of the Song Dynasty will support two army supply lines that are thousands of miles long.

Don't talk about the Song State, which is strong outside but capable in the middle.

Even the truly wealthy Yan Kingdom would not dare to do this.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for Yang Qi to divide Yan Country and Nan Country into two countries for management.

After listening to Ding Wei's analysis, Zhao Defang's face was so gloomy that he could bleed, he gritted his teeth and said, "Don't tell me you allow that bitch Han Qiong to run amok in Jeju Prefecture? If you let her continue to make trouble, half of my country will be gone.

At the beginning, we formed an alliance with the Liao Kingdom, and we agreed that they would fight the Yan Kingdom, and we would fight the Southern Kingdom.

Why did the Liao Kingdom go back on its promises and attack my Song Dynasty? "

There was an ugly wry smile on the corner of Ding Wei's mouth.

He knew in his heart that Zhao Defang could only live his mouthful.

In the past, when the Song and Liao countries were approaching, the Great Song Dynasty could not do anything to the Liao State.

Now there is still a country of Yan between the two countries.

The Great Song Dynasty can be said to be beyond the reach of the Liao Kingdom.

Even if Han Qiong makes troubles in the Song Dynasty, Zhao Defang has nothing to do with the Liao Kingdom.

Just when the monarch and his ministers were helpless.

Zhao Pu, who had been dozing off, suddenly opened his eyes, and said quietly, "It doesn't matter whether we can win the Southern Kingdom now, the important thing is to quickly wipe out Han Qiong's rebellion in Jeju Prefecture. Otherwise...the country will not be stable..."

When the two ends can only take care of one end.

Invading the southern country again will only be dragged deeper and deeper by the soldiers and horses of the southern country.

And the disaster caused by Han Qiong in Jeju will become bigger and bigger.

Therefore, it is necessary to make a decisive decision now, withdraw troops and horses from the southern country, go north to counterattack Han Qiong and others, and stabilize the country.

This is the subtext of Zhao Pu's words.

Zhao Defang and Ding Wei frowned at the same time.

They also knew that Zhao Pu was right.

But they are not reconciled.

This time, taking advantage of the unsteady foundation of the Yan State, the two countries cut down on Yan, but there is still no gain. Wait until the Yan State is stabilized.

Who can shake the country of Yan?
Without the threat of the Liao State, the State of Yan would become the confidant of the State of Song.

Therefore, Zhao Defang and Ding Wei knew that what Zhao Pu said was right, but they still didn't want to bow their heads.

for a long time.

Seeing that Zhao Defang hadn't made up his mind, Zhao Pu opened his eyes again, and a gleam flashed in his eyes, "According to the news I got before, hundreds of thousands of troops from the Liao Kingdom attacked the Yan Kingdom, from Gangcheng, Yuguan, Gubeikou, Dongfang The Sheng mansion moved around together.

The result was total annihilation.

The Liao army in Gangcheng, Yuguan, and Gubeikou had no bones left after being bombed by gunpowder.

In Dongsheng Mansion, Yelu Xiezhen, a general of the Liao Kingdom, was even chopped off by a group of disabled old soldiers.

It can be said that the Yan Kingdom today is still a fierce tiger.

And it is not an existence that our Da Song can shake.

Now that the civil strife in my Great Song Dynasty has already occurred, it is even more impossible to continue to quarrel with Yan Guo.

It's hard to guarantee that Yang Yansi won't be angered and make him send troops south. "

After a pause, Zhao Pu said softly: "Therefore, the top priority is to withdraw the soldiers and horses from the southern kingdom as soon as possible, and send envoys to respectfully send Huyan Chijin, the concubine of the King of Yan, back to Yan. I have already shown my friendship to the Yan Kingdom."

Zhao Defang became angry immediately. He stared at Zhao Pu and roared: "It was you who agreed to attack the Southern Kingdom at that time, but now you are the one who persuaded us to give up the Southern Kingdom and showed love to Yang Yansi? Zhao Aiqing, do you still have any ideas?"

Hearing the words, Zhao Pu stood up slowly, stared straight at Zhao Defang, and said not to be outdone: "From time to time, the world is impermanent and ever-changing. It won't work to keep the same and respond to all changes. Naturally, the old minister is At the most appropriate time, give His Majesty the most reasonable advice.

If His Majesty refuses to accept it, he can be a veteran.

But the old minister would like to advise His Majesty.

Please also ask Your Majesty to think about how the seated emperor came to be.

If Yang Yansi is really going to send his troops south, by that time, I'm afraid it won't end so well. "

The anger that Zhao Defang just mentioned disappeared completely in the sound of Zhao Pu's counterattack not to be outdone.

"Puff~"

Zhao Defang glared at Zhao Pu with a red face.

Zhao Pu bowed unceremoniously and said: "The old minister will leave first..."

Without waiting for Zhao Defang to stay, Zhao Pu flung his sleeves and left the Chui Gong Hall.

His domineering attitude really made Zhao Defang instantly murderous.

"I want..."

Zhao Defang was annoyed and only uttered two words, but Ding Wei hurriedly stopped him, "Your Majesty, be careful, now that Jeju Prefecture is in turmoil, and there is really no more disturbance in the court..."

"Oh!"

Zhao Defang thumped the table in front of him.

I swore in my heart that I would kill Zhao Pu sooner or later.

However, he didn't know that Zhao Pu was completely disappointed in him.

Zhao Pu's evaluation of Zhao Defang is that he is worse than Zhao Guangyi and far worse than his father.

out of the palace.

Zhao Pu sent out all the cronies in the mansion to find someone in Bianjing.

As for who to look for, few people know.

Inside the palace.

No matter how unwilling Zhao Defang is.

Finally accepted Zhao Pu's suggestion.
