1153 Wake up
With the sound of fighting in Fengzhou City, it gradually calmed down before the sky was dark, and Wan Yanjing, who had been outside the city all night, looked at Ye Qing, who had been waiting outside the city all night with him and Queen Li Shi'er, with a somewhat complicated expression.
"How did you guess?" Wan Yanjing was a little incredulous.
When King Huo and King Ying in the city welcomed Yan Jing and Li Shi'er back to Fengzhou, they were stopped by Ye Qing, and then found a soldier with a similar body shape to Wan Yan Jing from hundreds of Jin people, and put on Wan Yan Jing's armor and led hundreds of soldiers and most of the flower planting army into the city.
Although Wan Yanjing was a little confused, he finally agreed to Ye Qing's suggestion and stayed outside the city and waited.
"You said it yourself, you and your brothers don't get along very well on weekdays, and you have guessed that Xing Wang Wanyan Xun wants to rebel. So they suddenly agreed to let you go back to the city, doesn't that mean there's a problem? Ye Qing looked at Wan Yanjing, who was puzzled, and asked in some surprise.
How obvious is this trap to lure the enemy deeper? Why didn't Yan Jing see it?
At first, as soon as they arrived at the city, the rebels in the city couldn't help but draw their bows and arrows and shoot a general into a hedgehog, so that Wan Yanjing had to wait outside the city for dawn before coming to verify his identity. This shows that the rebels in the city are obviously unable to confirm the identities of Wan Yan Jing and others.
And now it's not dawn, but more than half an hour has passed, and the rebels in the city suddenly changed their minds, just going through the motions to check the identity of a Jin general sent in the past, and then agreed to enter the city after Yan Jing, why?
Why didn't you agree in the first place? Could it be that they couldn't verify Yan Jing's identity more than half an hour ago, and after more than half an hour, they didn't do anything, and they knew Yan Jing's identity all of a sudden? This is obviously impossible. Shouldn't we be suspicious?
So this is enough to show that during the more than half an hour they waited outside the city, the rebels in the city were obviously also discussing what to do next, weighing various pros and cons, and finally apparently chose to lure the enemy deep and then kill them.
After all, this is at least safer than them attacking, so as not to give Wan Yan Jing another chance to escape.
"So you think King Huo is rebelling against King Ying?" Wan Yanjing asked.
Ye Qing picked his chin and pointed to the gradually clear city wall: "Isn't the truth already in front of you?" King Huo or King Ying, obviously weighed it for most of the hour, and knew that once it was with you until dawn, it would not be of any benefit to them, so it would be better to welcome you into the city at night, and then close the door once...... Dog beating. ”
Wan Yanjing automatically ignored Ye Qing's two words of beating dogs, and Li Shi'er next to him was apricot eyes, glaring at Ye Qing and said angrily: "You are the dog." ”
"I wasn't stupid enough to go into the city and drill into the enemy's trap in the first place." Ye Qing looked up at the sky conceitedly behind his hands behind his back.
Li Shi'er looked at Ye Qing's appearance and was angry, snorted coldly at the moment, and said, "We didn't enter the city either, your flower planter army is the dog, they entered the city." ”
"Then you tell them to go." Ye Qing was still looking at the sky conceitedly, as if he didn't care about the queen of the Jin Kingdom at all.
"You...... Mean, shameless, insidious, treacherous! Li Shi'er looked at Ye Qing's conceited appearance, and had no choice but to kick the grass that had just emerged from the ground under his feet.
"Kindness is regarded as a donkey's liver and lungs, if you save you, you don't thank me, forget it, and even repay virtue with grievances. Alas...... It is no wonder that the sage said: Only villains and women ....... Ye Qing looked at the Heavenly Dao.
And the queen who was looking at the ground and kicking the grass raised her head in an instant and glared at Ye Qing angrily: "You can try it if you talk about it!" ”
"Ungrateful!" Lord Ye said lightly, and then didn't give the Empress of Jin Guo a chance to talk back, pulled the war horse and turned over: "The city gate is open, enter the city." ”
"You stop ...... me." Li Shi'er angrily pointed at Ye Qing's smug back and said angrily.
Wan Yan Jing just smiled, and Li Shi'er also took the reins handed over by Jia She, and under the protection of the rest of the flower planting army, followed Ye Qing far away to Fengzhou City.
There is always a similarity between pre-dawn and after dusk, that is, dawn and night can always quietly and imperceptibly envelop the whole world, seemingly slow but in the blink of an eye.
When the rest of the flower family army began to enter the city under the leadership of Ye Qing, it was already dawn at this time, and the cold air in the city was filled with a faint smell of blood.
Mo Xiaobao ran over quickly, since the battle last night, the armor has been covered with blood, and after the battle in the early morning, Mo Xiaobao at this moment is like killing the god and reincarnating, the whole person's armor and face are covered with blood, in the original quiet moment in the early morning, it gives people a creepy feeling.
"Qi is alive, there are not many rebels, and there are not many people in the flower planting army. The exact number of kills is unknown, but the number of captured has reached 3,000. The one called King Ying died, and I don't know who killed him, but when he found it, there was only one head left. I suspect it was killed by the rebels who surrendered. Mo Xiaobao followed Ye Qingyu to report, but turned a blind eye to the two main masters next to him, Wan Yan Jing and Li Shi'er.
"What about the one called King Huo?" Ye Qing didn't go to look at Yan Jing's somewhat ugly face.
After all, King Ying is his brother, whether he wants to rebel or not, but after all, he is a brother, but now he died in the hands of the Song people, and Wan Yanjing's mood is very complicated in short.
"Zhong Silkworm has been taken, and the rebels are all under the care of their Jin people, only Nahuo Wang Wanyan Congyi is now in the Fengzhou Bureau." Mo Xiaobao continued.
"Clean up the streets, double the scouts, and see if there's any movement on the Mongol side." Ye Qing sat on the back of the horse and pondered: "Tell Yu Yunwen that you can go out of Wuzhou to harass the Mongols on the grassland at the right time, lest Temujin keep an eye on our side." We don't have many troops on our side, and once Temujin pounces, we'll have to run. ”
"Cowardice." Li Shi'er hummed with some dissatisfaction on the side.
In her heart, Ye Qing should be a person who never knows what to fear and moves forward bravely, but at this time, she completely ignored the emperor of the Jin country, and gave orders on the territory of the Jin country, and she didn't plan to fight the Mongols with her whole army, but only thought about how to escape once the Mongols came!
I was too lazy to quarrel with the Empress of the Jin Kingdom, not to mention that there were still many things to deal with next, so Quan Dang didn't hear what the Empress of the Jin Kingdom was muttering, and after arriving at the door of the Fengzhou Government Office, Ye Qing took the lead in jumping off the horse.
Wan Yan Jing helped Li Shi'er get off the horse, and followed Ye Qing into the Fengzhou Government Office, at this moment, Wan Yan Jing's mood was extraordinarily calm and relaxed, although he was going to face his clan brothers next, but for some reason, when he looked at Ye Qing's tall and embarrassed figure, it made him feel that there was no longer any obstacle to the pacification of the rebellion in the Dajin Kingdom.
Zhong Silkworm greeted Ye Qing at the door, and in the hall at this time, a golden man with messy hair and a panicked expression was stunned for a moment after watching Ye Qing walk in first, and then when he saw Wan Yan Jing and Li Shi'er behind Ye Qing, he immediately began to howl and beg for mercy, wailing that all this was forced by King Xing, they couldn't help themselves, not that they wanted to rebel.
Ye Qing looked at it a little strangely, after Zhong Silkworm introduced King Huo Yan Congyi, and then looked at Wan Yan Jing with a calm expression behind him, took off the helmet on his head and scratched his head, and said: "What to do next is your business, it is up to you to kill or chop, after all, you are the courtier of your Jin Kingdom." ”
After speaking, without waiting for Yan Jing to answer, Ye Qing planned to follow Zhong Silkworm to go out, but Wan Yan Jing suddenly turned his head, looked at Ye Qing a little nervously, and blurted out: "Mr. is planning to leave ......." ”
Ye Qing turned around, looked at Wan Yanjing, who was a little panicked, and then held the helmet in his hand, looked down at the armor on his body full of dirt and grass clippings, and said with a smile: "You beat me up last night, and now that you have entered the city, I have to wash and wash it no matter what, and this wound, if I don't deal with it, ......." ”
"It's better to have one less arm, and you can't die!" Empress Jin Guo said with a poisonous tongue beside her.
Wan Yan Jing smiled reassuringly, as long as Ye Qing didn't leave at this time.
And Lord Ye looked at the Empress of Jin Guo in surprise, and said incredulously: "What hatred and what resentment?" What good will it do you if I break an arm! ”
After finishing speaking, without waiting for the Empress of Jin Guo to turn her head to look at him, Lord Ye instantly buckled the helmet in his hand on the head of Empress Jin Guo with lightning speed, and then turned around and walked out quickly.
The Empress of Jin Guo behind her only felt that Ye Qing's hand suddenly raised, and before she could dodge, she felt that her eyes were dark, her head hurt, and a smell of sweat instantly surged to the tip of her nose, realizing what was buckled on top of her head, so that she couldn't see the Empress Jin Guo in front of her, her mouth buzzed and she didn't know what she was muttering, and she hurriedly took off Ye Qing's helmet that was buckled on top of her head before leaving.
The thick smell of sweat in the helmet made Li Shi'er want to vomit, and he couldn't care about his status as a noble queen at the moment, so he ran to the door with Ye Qing's helmet and began to gag while slapping the helmet to vent his anger.
The helmet that Ye Qing wore overnight did not know how many times he had been soaked in sweat, so it is conceivable that when the helmet was buckled on Li Shi'er's head in the opposite direction, the empty space that exposed his face covered the back of Li Shi'er's head, and the back of the helmet was buckled against Li Shi'er's face, you can imagine what it was like to have the fair cheeks of Empress Jin Guo completely covered in the helmet smelling of sweat.
At this time, after Ye Qing washed off the dust on his body, he instantly felt a lot more relaxed, and Zhong Silkworm on the side was helping Ye Qing bandage the wound on his shoulder again.
"My lord, you don't really want to help Jin Guo, do you?" Zhong Silkworm asked with some uncertainty in his heart.
Although he also knew that Ye Qing helped Yan Jing in order to be able to seize Wujing Road in the future, rather than watching Wujing Road being taken away by the Mongols now, but now looking at the situation of the Jin Kingdom, Zhong Silkworm can be sure that as long as Ye Qing leaves, the Jin Kingdom will immediately fall into a dangerous situation again.
Ye Qing, who was naked, closed his eyes and recuperated, a slight smile tugged at the corner of his mouth, and after thinking for a while, he said, "Of course not." ”
"But looking at the current situation in Jinguo, I'm afraid we won't be able to leave for a while, right?" Zhong Silkworm asked again.
"Is there any recent movement in the Lin'an Imperial Court? Yanjing was recovered, has the imperial court not reacted so far? Ye Qing didn't answer Zhong Silkworm's question again, but instead asked about the Lin'an Imperial Court thousands of miles away.
"I guess even Dong Chao doesn't know where we are now." Zhong Silkworm smiled and continued: "Although Dong Chao watched us set off from Danzhou and entered the hinterland of the grassland, in this vast grassland, Dong Chao is afraid that it will not be so easy to find us now. I think, I guess Dong Chao didn't expect that we would be in Fengzhou City. ”
Ye Qing smiled: "That's right." After glancing at the bandaged wound, Ye Qing sighed slightly before he said, "I have already asked Mo Xiaobao to contact Dong Chao." Yanjing has Yeluyue here, I can rest assured, I don't even have to worry about the entire Northland. But we can't help but worry about what the attitude of the imperial court is now. ”
"So...... Staying in the Jin Kingdom is not so much to help Yan Jing, but to help us test the reaction of the imperial court ourselves. The sixteen states of Yanyun were taken back by us, and the imperial court naturally would no longer turn a blind eye like it did to other northern lands, and it must be necessary to find ways to seek control of the sixteen states of Yanyun, at this time...... I should not appear in the field of vision of the imperial court. Ye Qing frowned slightly and said.
"Yes...... The imperial court will also know sooner or later that we are in the Kingdom of Jin. Zhong Silkworm asked puzzled.
"Yes, what we want is to let the imperial court know that we are in the Jin country, so that the imperial court can covet the sixteen states of Yanyun when they are jealous, and dare not blatantly plot the ...... of the sixteen states of Yanyun." Ye Qing said with a smile.
"Is it because we're in Jinguo?" Zhong Silkworm asked with some clarity.
"Let's go down and rest and rest, it's enough for the city defense to hand over to them the golden people, we are here to be the uncle, except for the scouts, the rest of the people are resting until the time is right." Ye Qing didn't answer anymore, after all, the answer was already so clear.
Zhong Silkworm nodded, and after answering, he left the room that was temporarily prepared for Ye Qing.
Obviously, Zhong Silkworm has also been able to think clearly, the reason why Ye Qing stayed in the Jin Kingdom seemed to be helping Yan Jing, but in fact, he was carrying the Jin Kingdom to deter the Lin'an Imperial Court and make it throw a mouse trap on the issue of the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun.
The sixteen states of Yanyun are now in Ye Qing's hands, this is a fact that no one can deny, and how important the sixteen states of Yanyun are, look at the tireless pursuit of the sixteen states of Yanyun by the Song Dynasty, you can know the answer.
If Ye Qing is now in the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, then he has to take care of the reaction of the imperial court, after all, the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun have only just arrived, and they are not yet impregnable, so he also needs to use the influence of the Song Court to stabilize the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, obviously it is not the time to twist his face horizontally and vertically, and he can not care about the reaction of the Lin'an Imperial Court.
Moreover, although he Ye Qing has a good reputation among the people of the world, all of this is also based on being a courtier of the Song court, so once he completely turns his face with the court and lacks the identity of a courtier of the Song court, then just by virtue of his military exploits over the years, it is obviously impossible to fight against the influence accumulated by the Song court for a hundred years.
Therefore, whether it is for the stability of the sixteen states of Yanyun, or for the ability to fight with the Mongols in the future, or to incorporate the Wujing Road of the Jin Kingdom into the territory of the Song Dynasty, Ye Qing still needs a period of time to cultivate his obscurity.
The identity of the courtiers of the Song Dynasty and the fact that they were in the Jin Kingdom, these two factors could completely help Ye Qing completely control the sixteen states of Yanyun from the people in a short period of time.
Militarily, Ye Qing has been able to stabilize the sixteen states of Yanyun, plus Yu Yunwen is in Wuzhou, Meng Gong is in Yanmen Pass, and there are Yelu Chucai and Li An'an ...... in Taiyuan, when he thought of Li An'an, Ye Qing instantly opened Yanjing, got up and sat up from the kang.
At this time, it was completely dark outside the window, and the whole room was quiet without a sound, only the sound of footsteps and talking from outside from time to time.
Unconsciously, Ye Qing had slept for a whole day, shaking his somewhat drowsy head, even in his sleep, he was obviously thinking about trivial things about the sixteen states of Yanyun.
