Guide to traveling through the Northern Song Dynasty
Chapter 1093 1088 [Even in war, we must also respect human relationships and social etiquette]
(Correction of errors in the first two chapters——
Gao Yuechengsheng and Gao Yuchengguang are father and son, not brothers.
The fathers of Gao Yuchengsheng and Gao Guanyinlong are cousins, and they can only be regarded as clan brothers.
Gao Zhenming is Gao Zhenshou’s elder brother, not his younger brother. )
…
Outside Shanchan City.
Yang Zaixing saluted Bai Qi and said, "General, I will pay my respects to the marshal!"
Bai Qi and the generals dismounted and quickly walked over to hold Yang Zaixing's hands: "General Yang is really an enemy of ten thousand people. I can't believe the news I received from the north."
"It's all thanks to the emperor for great blessings." Yang Zaixing was humble and proud.
Lin Chong, Fan Ruwei and other generals also came forward to pay tribute and were full of praise for Yang Zaixing's behavior of charging into the formation with 800 cavalry.
Actually, they were somewhat unhappy because their great contribution to conquering Shanchan Mansion was robbed by Yang Zaixing!
Fortunately, Bai Qi is not the eternal emperor Yang Guang, and Yang Zaixing is not He Ruobi and Han Qinhu.
Otherwise, it might break up.
And it can still be saved in the future. After all, the Dali Kingdom has not yet been destroyed, and Bai Qi, Lin Chong and others can still gain military exploits.
In the afternoon, the army set up camp.
A banquet was held to celebrate in the evening, and after the banquet, Bai Qi met Yang Zaixing alone.
The two had friends in Hunan a few years ago, and Yang Zaixing also asked Bai Qi for advice on the firearm version of the Yuanyang Formation. Even when attacking Zhong Xiang, Yang Zaixing was nominally under Bai Qi's command.
After they finished reminiscing about old times, Bai Qi asked tentatively: "General Yang has been traveling in a hurry and fought hard. Does he need some time to rest?"
Yang Zaixing patted his chest and said, "No need to rest, you can fight at any time!"
Bai Qi felt a headache, so he could only speak more clearly: "General Yang led his troops to defeat the Shanchan Mansion and the barbarian tribes in eastern Yunnan. If General Yang stayed to guard, those surrendered generals and subordinates would definitely not dare to Rebellion. With General Yang in the rear, the Sichuan and Hunan troops I brought can continue to advance westward in peace."
This statement has three meanings.
First, in recognition of Yang Zaixing's great military exploits, Bai Qi would personally ask for credit for Yang Zaixing.
Second, after the establishment of Yunnan Province, Bai Qi promised to find a good job for Yang Zaixing, that is, to leave Yang Zaixing's troops in Kunming to guard.
Third, the generals from Sichuan and Hunan came all the way, so they had to share some of their military exploits, otherwise Yang Zaixing would definitely offend many people.
"Marshal, don't worry. Even if I don't stay in Shanchan, these prefectures will not dare to rebel again. Also, there is no need to attack Huichuan Prefecture and Dongchuan County in the north. I have conquered all the Dali soldiers there. The Gao family in the west I also have some knowledge of the situation of the princes..."
Yang Zaixing was still immersed in the great victory, and he wanted to continue the Western Expedition.
Bai Qi's words, which he had almost made clear, were just flattering to a blind man, and Yang Zaixing couldn't understand them at all!
Bai Qi could only smile after listening, and even stood up to hand tea to Yang Zaixing to soothe his throat: "General Yang has indeed worked hard and made great achievements. He actually conquered Huichuan Prefecture and Dongchuan County. I think the southern tribes can also spread the word. So say Come on, one-third of Dali Kingdom was captured by General Yang. I will definitely report this to the Ming court."
This is a promise to repay Yang Zaixing's merits and continue to increase his merits. All the prefectures that can be determined by propaganda will be counted as the territory conquered by Yang Zaixing's army.
Yang Zaixing still didn't understand, and he beat his chest loudly: "It's more than one-third. If the marshal gives me another five thousand troops, I can take back the entire territory of Dali!"
Bai Qi still kept smiling, but he already laughed so much that he wanted to cry.
Doesn't this guy understand human language?
The generals from Sichuan and Hunan have been planning to attack Dali for many years. In the early stage, they continued to encroach on the barbarian territories in southern Sichuan, western Hunan, and Guizhou, and spent so much effort to pave the way for actual control of the Yunnan-Guizhou region.
Without his efforts over the years, with the thousands of soldiers and horses in Yang Zaixing's hands, even if he conquered the entire Dali Kingdom, it would still be an isolated territory, and he would still have to rely on the surnames of Dali to rule.
Everyone worked hard to dig holes, plant trees, fertilize, and catch insects. After finally waiting for the flowers and fruits to bloom, Yang Zaixing suddenly came to pick peaches.
Bai Qi was even willing to let Yang Zaixing pick one-third of the peaches, but Yang Zaixing still wanted to compete with others to pick the remaining ones.
Forget it, just say it if you don’t understand.
Bai Qi was speechless and said: "Then General Yang will rest for a while, and we will attack Dali together tomorrow. As for Shanchan, I will leave some of my headquarters to garrison, and I will be able to stabilize when the follow-up auxiliary troops and immigrants arrive. "
After chatting for a while, Yang Zaixing bowed and left.
Watching Yang Zaixing leave, Bai Qi rubbed his forehead and began to think about which of his subordinates had wronged him to stay.
A handsome person must not only know how to fight, but also how to share cake.
But he said that Yang Zaixing returned to the camp, called his generals, and ordered: "Have a good rest, tomorrow at the earliest and the day after tomorrow at the latest. Let's continue to fight westward and capture the leader of Dali alive and offer it to the emperor!"
"Capture the Lord of Dali alive!" the generals shouted excitedly.
Only Li Shao and Bi Jin were a little surprised when they heard this. They looked at each other and shook their heads.
The generals returned to the camp one after another to sleep, and Li Shao and Bi Jin deliberately slowed down their pace.
After everyone had gone away, they suddenly turned back to ask for permission.
"Do you have anything else to add?" Yang Zaixing asked.
Li Shao reminded: "General, our military exploits are already great enough."
Yang Zaixing smiled and said, "Soldiers are still afraid of having too many military exploits?"
Bi Jin continued to remind: "General, you still remember that when we conquered Xixia, General Yue Fei also made extraordinary achievements."
"I've read the military reports," Yang Zaixing said.
Bi Jin said: "General Yue Fei made a great contribution. He immediately led his army to attack Keyimen and did not participate in the siege of the Xixia capital. After this battle, all the northern generals praised General Yue. But if General Yue did not leave at that time, he would not have stayed. If you come down and compete with others for credit, what will be the result?"
Yang Zaixing was startled.
Li Shao asked: "The general went to see the marshal just now. I wonder what they talked about?"
Yang Zaixing recalled: "He said that I had been fighting hard for days and wanted to stay in Shanchan to guard against the rebellion of the state troops here... Ouch! If you have something to say, just say it clearly. You have to go around and play charades. I'm not like that. Unreasonable people.”
Bi Jin asked: "How much military merit did the marshal promise to leave us?"
Yang Zaixing thought about it carefully: "We are said to be responsible for recovering one-third of Dali's territory."
Li Shao said: "Too many."
Bi Jin suggested: "Give the credit for recovering Huichuan Prefecture and Dongchuan County to the friendly forces. In fact, our capture of Shanchan Prefecture is enough for the soldiers to reward them for their merits. What's more, we also captured the barbarians in the east and returned Those states in the south will be decided based on the message.”
Yang Zaixing said: "The marshal also arranged it this way at the beginning."
"Because this arrangement is the most appropriate." Li Shao said.
Yang Zaixing added: "It seems that he wants to keep us in Shanchan Mansion permanently."
Bi Jin praised: "Shanchan is rich, and the marshal is so kind. I heard that the marshal will also stay here. From now on, we can be the marshal's direct descendants."
"I'll think about it again." Yang Zaixing closed his eyes and meditated, recalling the conversation with Bai Qi.
He's not a fool, he just didn't think about it that way. Now that he's awakened, he can naturally understand.
After a long time, Yang Zaixing stood up and said, "You go back to sleep. I'll pay a visit to the marshal again."
Handsome account.
"Commander, General Yang Zaixing would like to see you."
"Invite him in quickly."
Bai Qi was not even dressed when they met, but he saw Yang Zaixing kneeling on one knee: "Marshal, I was confused before. The soldiers under my command really need to repair after fighting hard for many days."
Bai Qi's brows finally relaxed and he reciprocated: "The Dali generals you have conquered are all at your disposal for the time being. The Suining Mansion and Xiushan County in the south are also under your control. Please cooperate with the follow-up officials and officials as soon as possible." Immigration, take control of all those places!”
In other words, there were no subsequent major contributions, but many small contributions were left to Yang Zaixing, including the contributions to protecting officials and resettling immigrants.
Yang Zaixing was a little embarrassed and explained: "Previously..."
"Don't talk about that," Bai Qi asked casually to save Yang Zaixing's face, "General Yang seems to have a wise general under his command."
Yang Zaixing said: "One is called Li Shao and the other is called Bi Jin. Li Shao is the eldest son of the former Hebei Commander-in-Chief Li Gong. The marshal also knows him. He also served under the marshal's account. Bi Jin is from Yanzhou, Shandong and has followed Many generals were later transferred to Guangxi."
Bai Qi nodded and commented: "I know Li Gong. He was a former Song Dynasty Jinshi. He was a wise and courageous man. He was invincible in Guangdong, Guangxi and Jiangxi. But he is a bit arrogant and looks down on generals who are born bandits. It is not easy for him to retire smoothly... ...Sigh, I won’t talk about people behind their backs. I didn’t expect that his son is actually both wise and courageous. He is worthy of his family background.”
Yang Zaixing said: "This Bi Jin is not bad. He marched and fought smoothly. Although he can't achieve extraordinary feats, there will definitely be no mistakes if you give him the city, the fortress, and the food and grass."
"It seems that this person has the style of a general." Bai Qi also wrote down the name Bi Jin.
Bai Qi was in a very good mood at the moment and took Yang Zaixing to chat for a long time.
The next day, the army marched westward.
Before setting off, Bai Qi said to his generals: "General Yang not only won a great victory with a small number but defeated many, he also took the initiative to stay in Shanchan to guard the rear for us. This is a truly loyal and brave man!"
Hearing this, the generals became happy and had a very good impression of Yang Zaixing.
The army marched westward for several days, and suddenly received news from Gao Liangcheng.
Bai Qi convened a meeting of generals: "Gao Liangcheng annexed Gao Zhenshou's remnants, with a total force of about 20,000. A general named Gao Yuochengsheng sent troops to control Dali City and the Dali Kingdom, and proclaimed himself prime minister and Ning Guogong. Gao Liangcheng asked us to quickly lead the troops to rendezvous, and then divide the troops into two groups to attack Dali... leaving the excess auxiliary soldiers and civilians in the cities captured along the way. Gao Liangcheng's Weichufu City was also directly dedicated to the imperial court. Our army can make detailed arrangements when we get there.”
"Gentlemen, it's time to wipe out Dali. This is land that the Tang Dynasty has not taken back. You can all leave your name in history with this!"
"Destroy Dali, long live the Ming Dynasty!"
"Destroy Dali, long live the Ming Dynasty!"
