Chapter 374: Killing Chickens and Monkeys
"What do you think?" After Gongsun Sheng sat on the chair, he looked the two brothers and sisters of the Yang family up and down, and he said unhurriedly: "The promotion of the Han depends on military merit, not origin. Those children who were born in the royal family are indeed high, but those are just lords, just a fictitious position, if you want to take up a real position and take power, you must rely on ability to promote. Military generals rely on military merits, and civilian officials rely on their political achievements and are gradually promoted after being assessed by relevant departments. Even the eldest prince was assessed by the Martial Arts Academy. Wang Yan served as the fifth product. Not because of his background, but because the Bazi Army is strictly disciplined, although it does not meet the requirements of the Han Army, it is already commendable, and his military cultivation is not under the forbidden army of the Great Song Dynasty. And the Red Jacket Army led by you Yang An'er is scattered, burning, killing and looting, defrauding the people, and forcibly looting. To put it bluntly, the Bazi Army is a righteous army, and your Red Jacket Army is a group of rogues, this is the gap between the two of you, and you not only can't recognize the gap, but also adopt a confrontational attitude, and even want to flee with the army, this is the mutiny, do you think there is a way out of the mutiny in the Han Army? ”
Defection, mutiny, these words stimulate Yang Miaozhen's nerves, she knows that the most powerful army in the world is the Han army, and it is only a matter of time before the Han Dynasty unifies the world in the future, and the Great Song Dynasty has become a thing of the past, and once her brother defects, it will definitely be a dead end in the future. Moreover, now that Sun Sheng, the Dragon Gongsun Sheng of the Cloud Entering Clouds, already knew about this matter, it was almost impossible to defect in this situation.
Yang An'er faced the aggressive Zhuyun Dragon Gongsun Sheng, he didn't know what to say for a while, he knew very well that the other party did not intimidate him, and the brothers had no way out if they followed him, since they had surrendered to the Han army, how could they easily defect?
Yang Miaozhen saw what his brother meant to regret again, so he hurriedly explained: "Immortal Chief, you may have misunderstood, my brother actually didn't mean to defect, but just complained a few words. He still hopes to make contributions to the Han Dynasty and is eager to be loyal to His Majesty. ”
"Your Majesty, I am very optimistic about you two brothers and sisters, and I am willing to give you such a chance to prove yourself, there are not many such opportunities, whether you can seize it depends on your Yang An'er's ability."
In the end, Sun Sheng, the Duke of Zhuyun Long, still chose to forgive Yang An'er and Yang Miaozhen, after all, this first daughter will serve His Majesty in the future, and there is no need to kill them all
Gongsun Sheng pondered for a moment and then said, "Your Majesty wants to see your two brothers and sisters, Yang An'er, you go over to see Your Majesty first, your sister and I have something to say." ”
Seeing that Sun Sheng, the Dragon Gongsun Sheng of Zhuyun didn't mean to embarrass himself, Yang An'er relaxed a lot, he was a proud person, and he always believed that as long as he gave himself a chance, he would be the 'God of War Di Qing' in the world, as long as he gave himself a chance, he would definitely be able to kill the Quartet. Now that the Son of Heaven of the Han Dynasty has given him a chance, Yang An'er firmly believes that his Red Jacket Army must be more powerful than the Eight-Character Army, and he also believes that he is more powerful than Wang Yan.
After Yang An'er left, Sun Sheng, the dragon prince of Zhuyun, said: "Yang Miaozhen, how old are you?" ”
"I'm twenty years old."
"Have you ever been married."
"I have been following my brother to fight the Jin Army, and I have never been married." At this time, Yang Miaozhen was so ashamed that her face was flushed, she thought that the eldest prince had taken a fancy to her and asked Sun Sheng, the prince of Zhuyun Long, to propose marriage, in this case, how could Yang Miaozhen, who was still the daughter of the yellow flower, not blush?
has never been married, this is enough, and Sun Sheng, the prince of Zhuyun Dragon, doesn't care about anything else, he said with a smile: "Clean up, let's go and see Your Majesty later." ”
"What, Dao Chief, what are you talking about, I'm going to meet Your Majesty."
"That's right! Isn't it clear that the poor way is clear? "Zhuyun Long Gongsun Sheng obviously doesn't know the part of the eldest prince, and he won't care too much if he knows, after all, the seriousness of the important ministers of the Han Dynasty, the eldest prince is nothing. Then again, let alone the eldest prince who does not have any backing background, even if he is the crown prince, on this issue, he has to fight on the side, after all, His Majesty has the disease of widowhood, and on this issue, His Majesty must prevail.
"Then, can I meet the eldest prince?" After a complicated ideological struggle, Yang Miaozhen still wanted to see the eldest prince, for her, His Majesty was high, and she was still afraid to see His Majesty by herself.
At this moment, Gongsun of Zhuyun Dragon understood the victory, and he said coldly: "The eldest prince has gone to Yunzhou, I'm afraid you won't be able to see him in this life, you better pack yourself up and go to see Your Majesty." ”
"What, the eldest prince has gone to Yunzhou, why can't I see him for the rest of my life?" Yang Miaozhen couldn't believe that she had an ear, and thought she had heard it wrong, but Gongsun Sheng was by her side, how could she hear it wrong?
It is about the eldest prince, it is impossible for Sun Sheng, the prince of Zhuyun Long, to be wrong, and it is impossible for Yang Miaozhen to hear it wrong, so there is only one truth, and the most cruel thing happened, that is, the eldest prince was expelled. As the eldest son of the emperor, staying away from the imperial capital means that he will be exiled and will not be on the throne in the future.
"You don't know why?" Sun Sheng, the Duke of Zhuyun Long, asked Yang Miaozhen rhetorically, he didn't bother to explain the merits of this, but said lightly: "The clothes are ready for you to see, and there will be maids outside to help you change your clothes." ”
The four maids helped to bathe and change clothes, even if they thought about it with their toes, they could figure out what was going on, not to mention Yang Miaozhen, who was smart in ice and snow? This big beauty fell into an unprecedented sadness, and fate was like choking her throat, making her unable to breathe, to think, to resist, or to refuse.
Death, Yang Miaozhen, who was bathed in warm water, did not have the comfort of 'hot spring water slippery washing cream', on the contrary, he also thought of death, but this idea was only fleeting, and the most painful thing in the world was to want to die, not to die, not to dare to die. I can escape, but I dare not escape. Yang Miaozhen knew that once she chose to die or escape, then her brother, uncle, and so many brothers would not be able to save their heads.
Under the whole world, it is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's minister. Now that he has entered the Han army camp and wants to escape, it is not easy to talk about, but now Yang Miaozhen feels that although the world is big, there is no place for himself.
The waiter helped Jiao Jiao to be weak, and when she put on the gorgeous costume, Yang Miaozhen felt that she was originally a daughter, her heart was higher than the sky, her life was thinner than paper, and she had the intention to kill the thief and was powerless to return to the sky. originally thought that his whole life would be spent in the bloody war against Jin, but he didn't expect that he would finally come to the point of serving men.
Liu Zhenglong, the jade-faced god of war, is indeed the object of Yang Miaozhen's worship, but this and service are two different concepts. , the big beauty Yang Miao, who has no choice, is really a little bit of rain and pear blossoms, and her heart is very sad, but she can't change her fate.
Yang An'er went to meet the Son of Heaven with a nervous heart, and as soon as this guy entered the house, he knelt on the ground and kowtowed to ask for guilt.
"Get up, I don't blame you, what's the crime?" Liu Zhenglong's admiration of the reckless hero Yang An'er, who dared to fight and dare to act, instead of a general who only surrendered to his command, he said lightly: "Dissatisfaction is the wheel of progress, you want to be a wife and a son, this is a good thing, but in the Han Dynasty, you need to make meritorious contributions and gallop on the battlefield in exchange for promotion." It's not something that can be won by making trouble. One of the people involved is Shi Guifei's younger brother, and the other is my eldest son, both of whom have been duly punished, and such a result should calm the dissatisfaction in your heart. ”
"Minister, minister, minister don't dare, minister knows wrong." Yang An'er heard that even the eldest prince had been punished, in this case, he was even more afraid to die, if His Majesty knew that he wanted to defect, maybe how to punish himself, he regretted it now to death, although the seventh grade was low, but he was just a mountain king before, it stands to reason that it is not bad, if he is a little content, it will not be so.
Liu Zhenglong didn't seem to see Yang An'er's thoughts, he said lightly: "I appreciate that you are a Chinese character who stands up to the sky, and now I will give you a chance to make contributions." You led 30,000 horses to take Qi County, and there you intercepted the Jin army's grain caravan. After completing the mission, you are the general Xuanwei from the fourth grade. ”
"The minister is willing to make a military order, and if he can't complete the task, he will be offered the head." As soon as Yang An'er heard that His Majesty did not blame herself, she immediately made up her mind in her heart to swear allegiance to the Han until death.
"Your sister is also a first-class general, but after all, girls can't always be torn apart on the battlefield, and they should still live a stable life. From now on, stay by my side. ”
As soon as she heard that His Majesty was going to let his sister enter the palace, Yang An'er burst into tears with excitement, her sister was a magpie flying on the branch and becoming a phoenix. For himself, for his sister, and for his future nephew, he will have to swear allegiance to the Han in the future.
At this time, while Yang An'er was grateful, he also had a killing intention in his heart, that is, he must kill his uncle Liu Quan before going on the expedition, since this guy is idle and defecting to the Jin Army, he must get rid of it, so as to save him from causing trouble in the future.
Yang An'er is also a decisive person, who is indecisive and hesitant on weekdays, but in the face of major rights and wrongs, under the psychology of identifying allegiance to the Han, he killed traitors like Liu Quan.
Yang An'er knelt on the ground and said: "The minister is sorry for my sister and my dead parents, thank Your Majesty Longen, swear allegiance to the Han in the future, and pave the way for the journey of the Han Dynasty with blood." ”
"Get up, in the future, you will be considered a relative of the emperor, it is best to abide by the law, the iron law of the Han Dynasty is something that no one can touch. You go down and prepare, and you'll go out in three days. 20,000 infantry is still an old subordinate, I will give you another 10,000 cavalry, hoping that you can win the banner and prove that your Red Jacket Army is stronger than the Bazi Army and can leave a place in the Han army. ”
In fact, Liu Zhenglong did not fall in love with Yang Miaozhen, but was stimulated by the Shi Zhenqi incident, he needed a force that could fight against the four major families, it was not enough to rely on the civilian group, and he also needed some generals who could compete with the four major families, and they were absolutely loyal to the Han Dynasty.
At the beginning, there was an oath with the four major families, as long as the four major families did not rebel and rebel, then the emperor of the Han Dynasty would definitely not live up to the four major families. After all, the four major families are all relatives, and the prince behind them is the prince, which makes Liu Zhenglong a headache, and there are not many better ways for a while, otherwise he would not acquiesce or even secretly support the civilian official group against his relatives.
The Pan family, the Cao family, the Gao family, the Shi family, the Zhe family, the Liu family, the Chai family, and the Wang family were twisted into a rope and formed the most huge strength in the court. Liu Zhenglong was prosperous in the Spring and Autumn Period, and he was arbitrary, but there would be no loopholes, and the generals were absolutely loyal to His Majesty. However, in the future, after the dragon returns to the sea, the successor emperor is from the four major families, and it is not impossible for the situation of relatives to take power in the future.
Yang An'er thought that his sister-in-law Guose Tianxiang had been taken by His Majesty, and on the way back, he began to think about how to take down Liu Quan, so that he could knock on the mountain and shock the tiger, kill the chicken and make an example of the monkey, so that Li Quan, Guo Fangsan, Qu Cheng and others were loyal to the Han and no longer had two hearts.
On the way to serve His Majesty, Yang An'er made a move, and this guy summoned all the generals below Liu Quan and announced that Liu Quan would be executed.
Liu Quan said very unconvinced: "Yang An'er, you bastard, I am your own uncle, if I hadn't pulled you two brothers and sisters up, you would have come to this day, you ungrateful dog, without me, you can have today." ”
"We are Han Chinese, how can we take refuge in the Jin Army, the iron law of the Han Dynasty, and those who defect will be punished."
In order to make an example of the monkey, Yang An'er personally killed Liu Quan, cut off the head of this guy and put it on the desk and said: "You are all good brothers who were born and died with me, and I have a mission to give my brothers a great future." Defecting to Jin Jun as a traitor is an insulting thing for the ancestors, I believe that everyone will not do it, and they are not willing to follow Liu Quan's old path. Whoever wants to insult their ancestors as traitors, I will kill their entire family. The Song Kingdom is already sunset, stormy, and the world is destined to be a great Han in the future. My sister has gone to serve His Majesty, and I will be a relative of the emperor from now on, and I promise to give my brothers a great future. Of course, if anyone wants to go, go now, I will definitely not force it. ”
Not reluctantly, just talking, the outside is full of swords and axes, and all who leave will be executed. This is Yang An'er's decision, since he has made a blood oath to be loyal to the Han, then all those who betray the Han are enemies, and if they are enemies, they will be killed, this is his obsession.
"I don't want to stay, I want to go." Li Quan has always loved Yang Miaozhen, but he has been fighting for many years and has no time to bring it up, he originally thought that Yang An'er would marry Yang Miaozhen to himself, but he didn't expect it to be like this, besides, Yang An'er can kill Liu Quan, so what future does he have in the future, it is better to leave.
"Okay, you go, I won't keep you." Yang An'er didn't expect that the first person to propose to leave was her friend Li Quan, who had been a friend for many years, and she suddenly had a murderous intention in her heart.
As soon as Li Quan walked out of the big tent, the knife and axe hand outside made a move and hacked this unlucky ghost to death.
In a blink of an eye, Liu Quan and Li Quan were killed, and in this case, Guo Fangsan, Qu Cheng and other more than 20 generals knelt on the ground and announced their allegiance to the Han.
Seeing that everyone swore allegiance to the Han, he said: "Brothers, the Han was promoted by military merit, this time, we occupied Qi County and attacked the Jin Army Grain Road, after this fact, everyone was promoted to the third level, and all the rewards this time were shared equally by you, and I will not participate." ”
"Brother Xie." The generals cheered, everyone knows that birds have no head and do not fly, everyone has followed Yang An'er for many years, now since they have defected to the Han army, since they have a great future, why defect without knowing the times, besides, once they defect, they will die if they are caught by the Han army, there is no doubt that staying and fighting the enemy is the right choice.
