Chapter 493: Planting a Seed
Zhao Ying had something on his mind, and casually learned about some things about the selection of generals, so he didn't talk anymore, and quickly asked Yang Congyi, Li Xianzhong, and Shao Hongyuan to retreat.
The matter of forming a new army by the selected general battalion participating in the army, the court has been delayed for a long time, and the last person who will suffer must be Zhao Ming, for today's plan is to immediately write to the imperial court, explaining the urgency of agreeing on the new army, if the imperial court still ignores it, once the election of the general battalion really changes, he still has room for retraction, and then the responsibility will be pushed to the important ministers of the imperial court.
The election will end immediately, without further ado, Zhao Ying wrote a document by hand on the same day, and the guards of the forbidden army hurriedly sent it to Lin'an.
The last forbidden army to enter the mountain to challenge entered the mountain, and there were almost no forbidden army generals who came to see them off, and they were all seizing the time to train these days, not sparing any time.
Li Xianzhong and Shao Hongyuan, who were the judges of the selected generals, then chased into the mountain with the escort of the forbidden army and the logistics troops of the selected general battalion, and watched the last challenge of the battle.
Yang Congyi did not enter the mountain like Li and Shao, and now that the king of Pu'an County is in the camp of the selected generals, he also has to stay in the camp, and he has already explained to the selected generals in the last actual battle, so he doesn't have to worry about the challenge.
The forty forbidden armies had not seen each other for several days, except once from afar when the king's convoy had entered the camp, but they had never slackened in their daily training, and they worked harder than before, because they did not know when the king would suddenly appear, or if he would send someone to watch from the shadows.
Zhao Ying had no interest in watching the training of the forbidden army, and occasionally left the camp and climbed to the top of the hill behind the camp to enjoy his freedom. In addition, he spent most of his time studying in the camp.
Yang Congyi was used to running in the mountains, and he naturally couldn't sit still when he returned to the camp for the election of generals, but all the specific affairs in the camp were shared by Shen Jin, Lu You, Su Zhong, Pan Cheng and others, and when he suddenly returned to the camp, he found that he actually had nothing to do.
But he couldn't be idle, but he finally found something to do, inspected the various armies, looked at their daily training, and chatted with the main general about the previous challenges in the mountains during the break, and discussed the marching battle, defensive formation, etc., which was also very fulfilling day by day.
On this day, he was patrolling the army, and suddenly a personal soldier came to report, and the king of the county summoned him to the camp.
Since they had met before, the county king had not summoned him again, Yang Congyi felt a little strange, so he quickly returned to the inner camp and entered the marshal camp to meet the county king.
"I don't know what the king of the county is looking for?"
Yang Congyi was led in by the guards and forbidden army, and when he arrived at the residence of the county king, he saw him reading a book in the room.
"What has Deputy Envoy Yang been busy with these days?"
Zhao Ying put away the scroll in his hand, his tone was calm, and his face was calm.
"The election is almost over, and there's really nothing to do. When I have nothing to do, I walk around the camp every day and discuss the gains and losses of this actual combat challenge with the various armies. The imperial court spent so much money to set up a camp to select generals, and the armies traveled hundreds of miles to come here, they should have some gains, even if they lost, they should know where they lost, if they couldn't grow a smart after eating a trench, it would be meaningless to participate in the challenge of electing generals, and the hardships they had suffered in the election camp for half a year would be in vain. The last general thought that the selection of the general camp should not be limited to the selection of a few outstanding generals, but should take this opportunity to stimulate the courage and fighting spirit of the majority of soldiers to dare to fight, excellent generals are from the soldiers step by step to grow up, in their hearts to plant a seed of battle, and then give them an example, there will be countless generals in the future, after all, the Great Song Dynasty is vast, once the crisis comes, one or two excellent generals are difficult to keep one side peaceful, if the court has ten hundred thousand generals who dare to fight, why fear the Jinren, why fear the Western Xia! It is not impossible to cross the river to the north, recover the old land, and recover Yanyun! ”
Yang Congyi took the opportunity to extend and told the truth the original intention of painstakingly forming a general selection camp that the county king was a person who had the opportunity to inherit the Great Song Dynasty, as long as he could listen to a few words, the Great Song army might not have the opportunity to do a lot in the future.
At present, it seems that history has not changed in any way because of his arrival, it is because he is small and weak, as long as he has enough influence, history may not turn around, and the Great Song Dynasty court may not always be heavy on literature and light on military force, like a cripple.
Yang Congyi rarely thought about this problem before, but in the past few months, he has been invisibly persecuted by the powerful people in the imperial court, and he deeply feels that he is like an earthworm used to fish for goldfish in the eyes of those people, as long as the earthworm hanging on the hook enters the water, the earthworm will die, and the goldfish that are caught can no longer control their own destiny, and the earthworm can no longer be an earthworm if it wants to get rid of the fate of being manipulated at will.
Now that the county king who has the opportunity to incarnate as a dragon is in front of him, no matter what, he has to fight for it and plant a seed in the county king's heart.
Deputy Envoy Yang was dedicated to the sake of the Great Song Dynasty, and Xiao Wang was very pleased. If the Great Song Dynasty is full of loyal ministers and good generals like Deputy Envoy Yang, the Great Song Dynasty can be protected for 10,000 years! ”
Zhao Ying couldn't help but sigh, but she didn't say much.
"'Establish a heart for heaven and earth, establish a life for the people, continue to learn for the saints, and open peace for all generations.'" Mr. Hengqu's four sentences, every time I think of them, my heart will rise with pride! The last general didn't read much, so he could only enter martial arts, and he didn't dare to speak in vain about his heart and life, but it was the wish of the last general to open peace for all generations, and he experienced countless hardships, and his heart to save the world was never wiped out! The last general went to the South Seas and the West with the Great Song Dynasty fleet, from the country of the islands of the South China Sea to the ancient country of Tianzhu, and then to the Great Qin, Dashi and other places, dozens of countries were seen along the way, and there were more than a dozen countries that had stepped on both feet, but no matter how prosperous these countries were, they could not be compared with the Great Song Dynasty now, and the Seljuk capital of the Seljuk Kingdom was built in Baghdad for a thousand years, and it was extremely prosperous in the Western Ocean, but the population of a city was less than 300,000, not to mention Lin'an, even Huzhou could compete with it. The prosperity of the material culture of the Great Song Dynasty made the Westerners jaw-dropping, but we have repeatedly lost the land, the sixteen states of Yanyun have not been taken back, and all the north of the Huai River have been discarded. The material culture of the Great Song Dynasty was so prosperous in the whole world, but it had to face the worry of destruction. The Great Song Dynasty is like a beautiful peony flower, because it has no thorns to prevent others from damaging it, there is a wild boar with a harazi coveted on the side, and I want to swallow it all the time. In the last two years, he has seen the vast overseas and numerous countries, and he knows that the Great Song Dynasty is different in this world, and he wants to restore the teeth of the Great Song Dynasty, sweep away the coveted beasts around him, so that students in the world can study and study with peace of mind, so that the people will not be displaced by the war, and everyone in the world will have food to eat and something to do. The Great Song Dynasty should be the central country, the Quartet comes to congratulate, the eternal years, and the country is eternal! To put it bluntly, the last general wanted to train a strong army for the Great Song Dynasty, retreat to resist the invasion of the Jin people, and enter to recover the hometown of the Great Song Dynasty! This is the wish of the last general! ”
Yang Congyi was impassioned, but Zhao Ming, who was unprepared, was startled.
"Vice Envoy Yang, please take a seat."
Zhao Ying didn't know what to say for a while, talking about military affairs shouldn't be what a county king should do, and it was not okay to discuss the government's policies with military generals. Besides, now that Song and Jin have only been discussing peace for ten years, how can they destroy the peace agreement and start war again, the top priority is to rest and recuperate.
"Deputy Envoy Yang just talked about the South and Western Oceans, can you tell Xiao Wang about what you have seen overseas?"
Zhao Ying shifted her focus in a hurry to avoid embarrassment and avoid talking about things that shouldn't be talked about.
After Yang Congyi thanked him, his excited mood gradually calmed down, and he couldn't be sure how much the county king listened to what he said, but from the county king's slightly hot and excited and then panicked eyes, he knew that he had planted a seed in the heart of the county king, and as for whether it could sprout, it was up to the county king himself.
"The king of the county wants to hear it, and the last general is willing to tell the king of the county. This starts from the winter of the eighteenth year of Shaoxing, hundreds of ocean-going fleets composed of 4,000 large ships loaded with goods from Quanzhou to the sea all the way south, because the fleet also carries the errand of the Nanyang countries, so the fleet arrived at the southernmost tip of the Great Song Dynasty after Qiongzhou was divided into two, most of the sea ships directly through thousands of miles of Changsha to the south to occupy the city, and then through the stone pond of thousands of miles to reach the country of the Three Buddhas, the other part was led by the original Zuo Shilang Zhong Dai Dai, the end of the ship escort, turned to the west of Qiongzhou Li Yueguo. After we arrived at the coast of Jingzhou in Li Yue Kingdom, Dai was first welcomed into the city to settle down, waiting for the local officials of Jingzhou to report the news of the visit of the Great Song Dynasty envoys to Thang Long City, who knew that more than 20 days had passed, and did not wait for the news of Thang Long City, Dai Daren and his party were besieged by the local defenders, and after the last general learned the news, he immediately led the Xuanwei army into the city to rescue Dai and bring him back to the sea, and then found out that someone wanted to provoke a war between the two countries, so as to profit from it, so we took the initiative to attack and annihilate more than 4,000 enemies who came to Jingzhou from Thang Long City, which eventually forced Li Yueguo to hand over the prince who had damaged relations between the two countries. Later, the prince of Li Yue fled, Li Yue launched a war in Guangnan, and the last general once again sent people deep into Thang Long City to capture the prince, and also found out the reason why Li Yue invaded Guangnan, they started the war not because the Great Song Dynasty detained their prince, but because they wanted to seize the territory of Guangnan, and had been preparing for this for more than ten years, in the sixteenth year of Shaoxing, Li Yueguo also sent envoys to Lin'an, offering six elephants, they took advantage of that envoy to the Great Song Dynasty to figure out the situation of the Great Song Dynasty, thinking that the Great Song Dynasty was weak, There was a powerful Jin threat to the north, so they could take the opportunity to seize Quang Nam, and Dai's envoy Li Yue was besieged by them as a test before starting the war. From the time Li Yueguo invaded Guangnan, the last general figured out that the Great Song Dynasty was like a piece of fat and oily fat in the eyes of the surrounding neighbors, and everyone wanted to take a bite. ”
Yang Congyi told the story, and finally returned to the Great Song Dynasty itself.
