569. Reign as the king

Zhaode Fang, inner courtyard, study.

Four small tables are placed in the middle, Song Jiang, Gao Shan, Fang Qifo, and Han Shizhong sit on the ground on the futon, and Yang Lin sits on the top.

Yang Lin glanced at the four of them, everyone's expressions were different, and as soon as the door rang, two maids brought a tea tray, holding a teapot and a cup.

On the small table in front of everyone, a cup of hot tea was poured, and the two knelt beside Yang Lin, waiting for the water to be refilled.

Yang Lin waved his hand and motioned for them to withdraw, and the two little maids bent down and slowly withdrew, closing the door.

Song Jiang already knew in his heart, and took the lead in breaking the silence and said: "Shaozai, summon me and others to come here today, I don't know what to order?" ”

Yang Lin held a small tea bowl that was not much bigger than his thumb and said with a smile: "Please come and drink tea." ”

Gao Shante picked up the tea bowl, drank it all, and said: "After drinking Shaozai's such a good tea, I can't wait to give up my life to repay him. ”

Han Shizhong participated in this kind of activity for the first time, and he was nervous, and he was more careful than commanding thousands of troops. His subordinates were sweating, sitting upright, and secretly said in his heart, this is the scene after I entered the Privy Council, no, I can't show my cowardice.

He swallowed the small tea in front of him, didn't feel anything at all, and said in a low voice: "I'm the same as Gao Dianshuai." ”

The three people had already made a statement, and only one Fang Qi Buddha was left, and all four people in the room looked at him.

Fang Qifo was pondering why this teacup was so small, and there was a painting engraved on it, which was simply ingenious. Fang Qifo was amazed, thinking about how to open his mouth for a while, and take a few back, wouldn't he have face when he was entertaining.

As soon as he looked up and felt four gazes, he was stunned for a moment, and his face began to turn red.

"Hey, hey, hey." While nodding his head at the four of them, Fang Qifo smiled a little wryly.

Yang Lin, who was originally full of confidence, was a little discouraged in an instant, this is the four confidants who he leaned on as his arm?

With them, they will plot to usurp the throne? Okay...

Yang Lin said angrily: "I want to be the king of Yan and become a king, what do you think?" ”

Gao Shanku hurriedly said: "Shaozai recovered Youyun, he should have been crowned king a long time ago, this matter is in line with the will of heaven and the people, it is better to be sooner rather than later." ”

Han Shizhong also nodded again and again, and praised: "Gao Dianshuai spoke, I think it is sincere, and I Han Wu also thinks so." ”

At this time, Song Jiang stood up, clenched his fists slightly, and said, "Shaozai, this matter is not appropriate..."

Gao Shan slapped the table, Yang Lin pressed his hand, signaling him to be calm.

Song Jiang paced in the house and said, "Shaozai, the previous time I took back Youyan, and the three resignations of the prince have become a good story. If you overthrow it yourself, wouldn't it be some..."

Yang Lin blushed and said, "Go on." ”

"If you want to become a prince, it's simple, just continue to expand the territory. Now there is a ready-made one in front of us, and Cochin has been in the civil war between the north and the south for more than a year with our intentional connivance, and it has been fought to the ground. ”

When Song Jiang said this, he glanced at Fang Qifo, who nodded very sincerely and said, "The dead died miserably. ”

Song Jiang continued: "Sincerely, Shaozai can personally conquer Jiaozhi, take back this land that has been separated for a longer time, and reproduce the Jiaozhi County in the Great Qin period. ”

Yang Lin pondered for a moment, feeling that it was not impossible, after all, it was the past credit to take back Youyun, and more of it was recovered in the negotiation of peace, although there were many bloody battles, but there was no hearty victory.

Going south to Cochin... The Li Dynasty is already exhausted, these people started a civil war, it is really ruthless, killing their own compatriots is like killing the enemy of the ninth world.

If he goes south, he can sweep away the Zhong Xiang thieves by the way, and return Jingchu Jiangnan and Lingnan provinces to a peace.

Now it seems that the implementation of the New Deal has little resistance in the north.

Hedong, Hebei Province was already extremely poor, and the New Deal gave them an opportunity, and the people in these places were too late to be grateful to Dade, so they naturally would not object.

Qin, Long, Shaanxi, and Gansu have been in trouble, and the implementation of the new policy is also beneficial to them. In particular, the Western Regions Trade Road and the Ancient Tea Horse Road have made the local area prosperous.

Now it seems that it is the hometown settlement of these scholars and doctors in Jiangnan who has the strongest resistance to themselves.

For this reason, he even did not hesitate to form an alliance with the anti-thieves, did not hesitate to be embarrassed by the Jin people, and did not hesitate to invite foreign races to join the Song Dynasty.

It seems that there will be another Jiangnan again, Yang Lin's bones hurt all over his body, and he seems to have begun to protest.

I've just been resting for less than half a year, and if I could, I really didn't want to move anymore.

Every time I go out of Beijing, I lose half my life, but fortunately, this time it is not particularly urgent.

After Song Jiang finished speaking, except for Fang Qifo, everyone else stood up and seconded the proposal.

Yang Lin saw that the hearts of the people were unanimous, so he no longer hesitated, and said: "Since this is the case, I will go to Jiaozhi, collect the old soil, and then ask the king of Yue." ”

As soon as Han Shizhong heard that there was going to be a war, he asked: "I don't know which soldiers and horses Shaozai wants to take to go, and the last general is willing to act as a vanguard for Shaozai." ”

Yang Lin thought about it, but still waved his hand and said: "Youyan is the most important, there is a strong enemy in the north, ten times that of Jiaozhi." You must not leave the Great Wall lightly, let alone draw soldiers and horses from the Great Wall. ”

Now it's time to grab credit, everyone knows that Jiaozhi is ripe, so they wait for Shaozai to go and pick it. Gao Shanku hurriedly said: "The new army of the Beijing camp is willing to work for the young slaughter of dogs and horses." ”

Yang Lin nodded and said, "Take 20,000 forbidden troops and leave 20,000, there was originally Liu Qi with 20,000 new troops in Jiaozhi." After I leave, Song Jiang, you have to restrain the Hu soldiers of the Eastern Battalion, those people are your old troops, remember that no matter what happens, you can't transfer out of Bianliang. ”

Song Jiang hugged his fists and said, "My subordinates understand." ”

Bianliang is the top priority, and after he leaves, he will definitely have to explain a few words to Yang Jian, Cai Jing, Wang Chaoli, Xu Zhichang and other henchmen, these people should also know in their hearts.

"20,000 soldiers and horses, isn't it a little less?" Han Shizhong knew that he didn't have a chance to go, so he couldn't help but remind.

Yang Lin shook his head and said: "Dali already has more than 100,000 soldiers, plus the vassal army of Jiaozhi that we support, I will order the South China Sea Naval Division to cooperate in the battle, the number is enough." ”

Speaking of this, Yang Lin suddenly remembered one thing, except for the Jin Kingdom, all the people around the Great Song Dynasty were his own vassals.

Take care of them on weekdays, and come to fight the autumn breeze during the New Year's holidays, what kind of vassal is this. It's like spending money to support a group of living fathers, in fact, the last time I was a little tempted, I begged them to ask the palace maids to serve the emperor, and these small countries are quite docile and happy.

A great country is like this, it cannot just be a grace, it must properly display its majesty. Let these little brothers know who is the big brother.

"The Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of War issued an order, and all the vassal states near the South China Sea sent troops to help in the war. Goryeo and Dongying were responsible for supplying grain, grass, horses, and ships, and those who were disobedient were recorded and cleaned up one by one in the future. ”
