Monument Yangmen

Chapter 835 Who's Damn?
Nobody wants to die.

There are only a very small number of people who are loyal and fearless of death.

Otherwise, the Han family would not change frequently.

Lu Duan's cry finally had an effect.

With Lu Duan's efforts, the shouting and killing gradually became smaller.

In the end, they were divided into two groups again.

One wave occupied the riverside, and the other blocked the riverside.

The soldiers of the Imperial Army fought with the Southern Army for a while, and it turned into a confrontation between the two armies again.

Lu Duan took the place of Yang San's right to speak, and rode his horse to the gate of the Forbidden Army officers and soldiers, and said loudly: "We have seen the combat effectiveness of the Forbidden Army officers and soldiers. If it wasn't for the imperial court's improper selection of candidates, which allowed us to take advantage of the opportunity, I'm afraid we wouldn't be able to Easily defeat you.

As the saying goes, they are born from the same root, so why rush each other.

In the Southern Kingdom and the Song Kingdom, both men of our Han family are in power, and they all belong to the same line.

Consuming each other like this will only make loved ones hurt and enemies quickened.

You have lost the opportunity now, and a large amount of ordnance has not yet crossed the river.

If you continue to fight with us, there will be no good end.

Once you die, you will be happy.

But have you ever thought about your wives, children, and mothers? "

Lu Duan's words were beautiful, not only showing the strong side of the Nanguo Army, but also praised the Forbidden Army by the way.

Unspoken.

It's not that you can't fight, but that your commander is a bit scumbag.

And if we didn't cheat, we might not be able to defeat you.

Hearing these words in the ears of the officers and soldiers of the Imperial Army felt extremely comfortable.

Few people are willing to admit that they are inferior to others.

Even if they are beaten and run away, they still have to maintain a sense of pride in their hearts.

Lu Duan's words touched their hearts.

Seeing that the soldiers of the Forbidden Army did not refute his words, Lu Duan knew that his words had an effect, and immediately he continued: "My Majesty is kind and never kills indiscriminately. bitter.

Let's not talk about things like Zheng Yanyun, who solved the suffering of tens of millions of Han men who were enslaved.

Let's just say it's closer to you.

old days.

During the Northern Expedition of the late Xiandi, a bad move caused hundreds of thousands of imperial soldiers to be tricked by the Liao people.

It was our Majesty who reminded the soldiers of the Forbidden Army in advance, so that tens of thousands of soldiers of the Forbidden Army survived.

It was also our Majesty who extended a helping hand and took them in when hundreds of thousands of imperial guards were in distress.

I think that among these people, there are many of your former colleagues.

Their experiences should have been told to you.

How His Majesty treats them, you also know in your heart. "

Lu Duan paused, and said solemnly: "I tell you this, just to tell you that His Majesty is a benevolent monarch, and he is not willing to kill my Han family man without authorization.

Our two armies are facing each other at this moment, if we are not careful, tens of thousands of brothers will die tragically.

This is not what our Majesty wants to see, nor is it what you want to see.

so……"

Lu Duan slowly raised his hand, cupped his hands and said, "I implore you all, think about the other brothers around you and put down your weapons. As long as you put down your weapons, we will be like a family of brothers."

When the soldiers of the Forbidden Army heard the words, they subconsciously looked at their colleagues around them.

Looking at the strong Nanguo army on the opposite side, they had plans in mind.

All eyes subconsciously turned to the leading generals.

The leading generals are not stupid, they naturally felt the needle-like gaze behind them.

Can live, who wants to die.

And many of them know what kind of life those former colleagues who went to Yan Kingdom lived.

When I first entered the country of Yan, I encountered a food shortage.

It was really hard.

But Yang Qi, as the king of a country, did not hesitate to put himself in danger and went out to sea to catch food for them.

Treating them with sincerity based on this alone is not something other monarchs can do.

Some generals are about to drop their weapons immediately.

But he was stopped by the generals around him.

Under the strange eyes of his colleagues, he took a step forward and shouted in a low voice: "Lord Lu, when you were in Bianjing in the past, I had a relationship with you once. Now I have a few words I want to ask you, how can I ask you?" I hope you will tell the truth for the sake of the love we met once in the past."

Lu Duan said straightly: "Tell me..."

The general said in a deep voice: "If our brothers vote for you, will we be regarded as Yan Guo people or Nan Guo people?"

Lu Duan was taken aback when he heard this.

This question seems simple, but it is not easy to answer.

After all, there is a difference between Yan people and Nan people.

Lu Duan pondered for a moment, and said solemnly: "Yan Guo and Nan Guo are both one family."

The general pondered, nodded slowly, and asked again: "Then if our brothers vote for you, will you be demoted to be slaves by you? After all, there have been many incidents of taking prisoners of war as slaves in your country..."

Hearing this, Lu Duan said in a cold voice almost without thinking: "My Majesty once said that Han'er...is not a slave!"

Han'er...not a slave!

Five short words, but full of power.

When the soldiers of the Imperial Army heard these words, they were all shocked.

There was also a bit of strange look in the eyes of the generals of the Imperial Army.

He suddenly understood a little bit why Yang Qi still chose to go south and north to fight in the weak state of Yan.

Just for this sentence.

Han'er is not a slave!
Any man from the Han family would not be indifferent when he heard this sentence.

Shouting this sentence is even more common.

But counting the history, it seems that there are very few kings who can do this.

All men who can enlist in the army have more or less blood and courage in their chests than others.

Hearing this sentence, it is impossible to remain indifferent.

The general of the Forbidden Army originally had a few questions to ask, but after hearing this sentence, he no longer hesitated in his heart.

"Shu~"

He took the lead and knelt down on one knee, and said in a deep voice, "Yang Ming, commander of the Qingyi Battalion on the left side of the Japanese army, please surrender!"

With him taking the lead, the other soldiers also knelt down on one knee.

Lu Duan nodded excitedly and said: "Okay, okay...you don't need to be too polite, please get up quickly. Follow me to see my second general and third general..."

Yang Er had arrived early, but he saw Lu Duan persuading the soldiers of the Imperial Army to surrender, so he didn't bother him much.

The officers and soldiers of the Forbidden Army met Yang Er and Yang San again.

Yang Er sent people to confiscate their weapons, leaving only a few generals' weapons.

Then Lu Duan led them into the tent of the Chinese army.

In the big tent of the Chinese army, there is only Yang Er.

Yang San is arranging those soldiers.

After the generals entered the tent of the Chinese army, they paid homage to Yang Er. After Yang Er invited them to sit down, he said: "Everyone's act of clarifying righteousness today has saved a lot of swordsmanship. Yang is here to thank you all.

If you have any inconvenient requests for outsiders, you can tell Yang now.

When this battle is over, Yang will personally write a letter and send it to His Majesty, so that His Majesty can satisfy your requirements as much as possible. "

Yang Er was so frank and honest, which made the generals of the imperial army who had just surrendered somewhat at a loss.

A few people pushed and shoved, faltered, and didn't know what to say.

Seeing this, Yang Er pointed at one of them and said with a smile, "Your name is Yang Ming?"

Yang Ming bowed and said, "If you go back to the Second General, it's Yang Ming who is in the humble position."

Yang Er nodded and said: "Seeing that you have some prestige among them, it's up to you. Don't worry about it."

Lu Duan smiled and said, "The Second General asked you to make a request, so you can just ask. You must know, don't miss this opportunity."

Hearing this, Yang Ming gritted his teeth, and said in a deep voice: "Since the second general asked me to speak out, I will not be polite. I and others have no other requirements, but I hope that after voting for Yan State, I can get the same benefits as those who voted for Yan State in the past. Brothers in the Imperial Army are treated the same.

As for the others... I don't dare to think about it.

People with low ranks have not accomplished an inch, and they don't have the cheek to ask for other things. "

Yang Er was slightly taken aback, and looked at Lu Duan.

The two smiled at each other.

Yang Er looked at Yang Ming and the others with a smile, and said, "Could it be that your family members are all ignored by you?"

Yang Ming was stunned for a moment, and said sadly: "The humble...the family members of the humble are all in Bianjing, and now they have voted for the Yan Kingdom, I am afraid that the imperial court will not let the family of the humble. So...the humble dare not think..."

Yang Er shook his head and said, "No, no, no... There is nothing I dare not think about. Since I recruited you, I naturally have to think about your future."

Yang Ming hesitated and said: "But the family members of the humble rank are all in Bianjing City. Once the court knows that the humble rank and others have voted for the Yan Kingdom, it will definitely bring disaster to our family members. Even if we lead the army to kill them now, it will be too late..."

Yang Er smiled happily, and said loudly: "There are many obstacles to fight from here to Bianjing. It really takes time, until you reach Bianjing city. I'm afraid your family members have already been poisoned by Zhao Defang.

However, now there is a trick.I need your help. Once the matter is completed, your family members may be able to return to you safely. "

Yang Ming's first reaction was not excitement, but an expression of disbelief, "This...it's impossible..."

Yang Er smiled and said: "There is nothing impossible, to tell you the truth. I received a military report a few days ago, and His Majesty has led the army to take all the land in the northeast of the Song Kingdom except Cangzhou City.

In the near future, troops will come to Luzhou.

As long as we pursue bravely and dare to take down Jiangning Mansion before the imperial court kills Er and other family members, we will have a round with His Majesty.

At that time, half of Song Kingdom's territory will fall into His Majesty's hands.

The Zhe family of Beiliang country in the northwest has already captured Taiyuan.

The Cao family of Dali Kingdom in the west has taken over the entire Sichuan and Shu.

At that time, as long as His Majesty is willing, he can take Bianjing City at any time.

At that time, His Majesty only needs to write a letter, telling Zhao Defang that his head is the head of your family.

And forced Zhao Defang to negotiate peace.

Do you think Zhao Defang will agree? "

Yang Ming was stunned when he heard this.

In just a few breaths, he figured out the trick.

Immediately, without any hesitation, he immediately knelt down on one knee and said in a deep voice: "If we can really save our family members, we will be at the mercy of the Second General."

Yang Er stood up slowly, nodded with satisfaction and said: "Very well, my words were not in vain after all. On the other side of the river, there are still tens of thousands of old departments like you.

This general is unwilling to meet them in battle, so I hope that someone from you can recruit them.

Wait until my army crosses the river.

Under Brother Lu's order, you and the others will disperse in all directions and recruit troops from other places in Jiangning Mansion.

Within three days, conquer Jiangning Mansion.

Your family members will live. "

Yang Ming and the others saluted together, bowed and said, "No!"

that's it.

The army rested in the middle of the night on the other side of the river.

The next day, when the sky was getting bright.

Yang Ming took some old troops across the river and recruited the soldiers of the Song army who had not yet crossed the river.

Since then.

The 25 soldiers and horses led by Yang Ning were wiped out overnight.

Inside Jiangning Mansion.

There is no longer any effective force that can withstand the galloping soldiers and horses of the Southern Army.

Three days.

Only three days.

Under the pressure of surrender and heavy ammunition.

Jiangning Mansion, Suzhou and other places are all under the control of the Southern Kingdom Army.

Yang Ningjiang was defeated, resulting in a disastrous defeat for the 25 army.

Yang Yanding sent hundreds of thousands of troops to conquer Jiangning Mansion in three days.

These two things spread throughout the world as if they had grown wings.

Anyone who hears these two things.

All of them looked unbelievable.

In Bianjing city.

Royal Palace.

After Zhao Defang heard these two news reached his ears together, he immediately slumped on the dragon chair and couldn't even get up.

Jiangning Mansion fell, Jeju Mansion fell, Qingzhou, Dengzhou, Suzhou and so on.

Hedong and Jiangnan are all controlled by Yang Qi.

Half of the Great Song Dynasty was lost just like that.

Not only that.

Sichuan and Shu in the west were also lost.

Taiyuan Mansion in the north was also lost.

For a time in the Song Dynasty, the wind and rain were turbulent.

"I! I want to kill Yang Ning's nine clans!"

Zhao Defang, who finally got over it, said the first thing he wanted to do was to exterminate the Yang Ning family.

Immediately.

Some courtiers stood up to stop him.

"Your Majesty, this battle was not Yang Ning's fault. It was actually the soldiers of the Imperial Army who refused to fight to the death and wanted to surrender to the enemy. This led to the disastrous defeat of the 25 troops."

"Fart, if it weren't for Yang Ning's incompetence, how could the 25 army be defeated by the bandits."

"..."

A verbal war broke out again.

The civil and military people clashed fiercely in the court.

Yang Ning was right, anyone with a discerning eye could see it.

But why are the civil servants defending Yang Ning so much?
The reason is that the sentence that Zhao Defang promised at the beginning of his ascension to the throne will not punish the doctor.

Yang Ning made a mistake today, and his family was killed.

If they made a mistake tomorrow, wouldn't their family members also be punished?

This will not work.

Civil and military quarreled together.

The more Zhao Defang listened, the angrier she became, and finally she couldn't help roaring: "Enough! Shut up!"

however.

The military generals immediately lost their momentum, but Wenchen was worthy of him.

Especially Yushi.

Immediately, when Zhao Defang got angry, the censor jumped out and said loudly: "Everything I said is for Your Majesty, and every sentence is for our Great Song Society.

In this battle of Jiangning Mansion, Yang Ning, as the coach, has an unshirkable responsibility.

However, in comparison, those generals and schools of the Forbidden Army were the real root cause of the defeat of the Jiangning Mansion.

Even though Yang Ning was unbearable, he was fighting for His Majesty until his death.

He used his death to prove his loyalty.

But what about those generals of the Imperial Army?
They kept saying that they were loyal to His Majesty, but when they saw the enemy approaching the city, they turned their backs one after another.

Therefore, I believe that they are the root cause of Jiangning Mansion's defeat this time.

Perhaps, from the very beginning, they had the intention of casting a thief.

Some people even secretly hooked up with the thieves. "

The words of the censor were neither humble nor overbearing, and they were extremely beneficial.

At least Zhao Defang was right.

He didn't personally participate in that battle, but just figured it out based on the memorials.

Now, Yang Ning, who was said to be the culprit, died on the battlefield.

But those officers and soldiers of the Forbidden Army who thought they were loyal and brave turned to thieves.

Now turn to deal with the court.

After such a comparison, Zhao Defang immediately had the answer in his heart.

"They... deserve to die even more!"
