"The official family should want the ministers to lead the troops to attack the Song Dynasty."

After listening to Yue Fei's very sure guess, Li Yan stared at Yue Fei's eyes for a long time before he said noncommittally: "You really dare to guess...... Do you know that the consequences of figuring out the emperor's mind without authorization are very serious, and how many courtiers have died because of this throughout the ages? ”

Yue Fei said conclusively: "The official family is by no means such a mediocre emperor, and the official family must know that the minister has an iron-blooded heart and is committed to serving the country loyally, so the official family will definitely not kill the minister because the minister guesses the official's mind!" ”

Let Yue Fei tell everything, and also said that Li Yan was extremely wise and powerful, so that Li Yan didn't know how to carry on this conversation.

In the end, Li Yan could only say with a little ridicule: "You are not humble at all. ”

Yue Fei said: "There is no word against his will that the minister said, and there is no reason why he dare not say it. ”

Although every word Yue Fei said was heartfelt, courteous and polite, Li Yan always felt that talking to Yue Fei was a bit difficult and even a little uncomfortable.

Based on this, Li Yan didn't want to go around the bend with Yue Fei anymore, and then said bluntly: "You guessed right, I am preparing for you to lead the army to attack the Song Dynasty. ”

When Yue Fei heard this, he immediately smiled, and then promised: "The minister promises to destroy Zhao Song for the official family!" ”

Li Yan said: "Don't be busy guaranteeing that this year, I will have to let the military and civilians cultivate for a year anyway, and I will have to wait until next year at the earliest." ”

When Yue Fei heard this, he smiled and said, "It's okay, it's September, and there are only less than three months until next year, so I can wait." ”

Li Yan said again: "We have to wait for a suitable opportunity." ”

Yue Fei said: "The minister understands, and the minister can wait, as long as the official family asks the minister to go to the Song Dynasty." ”

Since he has already said it, Li Yan simply explained it to Yue Fei and said: "I am going to let you form a Pingnan army to defeat the Song Dynasty, this army is preliminarily set at 300,000, including the 150,000 army in Yang Yizhong's hands and the 780,000 army you brought back this time, in addition, I am going to drop back a few more troops from the northern front, and I have gathered 300,000 troops for you." ”

Hearing this, Yue Fei pondered in his heart for a while, and then said, "Can the troops transferred back from the northern front be selected by the ministers?" ”

This is actually a taboo, because anyone in power hates his subordinates to engage in mountaineering.

Li Yan asked quietly, "Then who do you want?" ”

Yue Fei opened his mouth and said, "The ministers want Wang Gui, Wu Lu, Wang De, Niu Gao, Wang Sheng, Li Bao, Li Yanxian, Lu Junyi, Du Bao, Shi Wengong, Yang Zaixing, Li Yanguang ......"

After listening to Yue Fei's request, Li Yan was relieved.

Yue Fei didn't want all of his old subordinates, but generals and generals who could fight.

It can be seen that Yue Fei's starting point is to be able to cut down the Southern Song Dynasty in one fell swoop and devote himself to the public.

Li Yan interrupted Yue Fei and said: "Okay, okay, you also have to leave some generals who can fight for Liu Qi, Han Shizhong, and Wu Jue, so okay, I will let Xu Guanzhong and Zhu Wu study it carefully when I go back, and try to transfer as many generals as possible to you." ”

Yue Fei rubbed his hands and said: "Official, you are also from the army, you know that there must be someone who can say the right thing about this kind of war, then Yang Yizhong and I ...... the two of us."

The five tiger generals in Dazhong, including the generals who are more capable of fighting in Dazhong now, are almost all recruited, promoted, or even brought out by Li Yan himself, so they can be said to be all Li Yan's cronies.

But—

There are also some differences between these cronies and their cronies.

Take the five tiger generals as an example.

Among them, the one who has been with Li Yan the longest is undoubtedly Yang Yizhong, who has been protecting Li Yan's safety before.

Therefore, in the eyes of outsiders, the closest to Li Yan is undoubtedly Yang Yizhong, and even Yue Fei and the other four Five Tiger Generals think so.

In addition, Yang Yizhong is also very capable of fighting.

Therefore, fighting for power with Yang Yizhong, Yue Fei was somewhat weak-hearted.

Li Yan didn't talk nonsense, and said directly: "You are the marshal, and he is the deputy marshal." ”

When Yue Fei heard this, he smiled and said, "No! ”

After laughing for a while, Yue Fei said again: "The minister has carefully studied the terrain south of the Yangtze River, and carefully studied the previous wars to pacify the south of the Yangtze River, and found that if you want to completely pacify the south of the Yangtze River, you must first go down to Shu, otherwise, I will fight here, and King Song Kang will flee to Shu, then the trouble will be big, you also know, Shu is easy to defend and difficult to attack, if you have an army of three or five hundred thousand people, and then want to fight, it will be difficult, so Zhang Xian and Wang Yan are bound to advance and retreat with us......"

Li Yan still didn't know what Yue Fei was thinking?

Li Yan was already fed up with Yue Fei, so he said directly: "They are also at your disposal." ”

This time, Yue Fei was completely happy, bowed to the ground, and said: "The minister promises to pacify the Southern Song Dynasty for the official family!" ”

Li Yan did not force Yue Fei to set up a military order, but said: "You only care about the war, everything else, I will settle it for you, and I will teach you to worry about the future." ”

Yue Fei heard this and said: "In this way, if the minister is still unable to pacify the Southern Song Dynasty for the official family, he will definitely come to see the official family!" ”

Li Yan's tone softened, and he said, "After a few more days of rest, you can start to form the Pingnan Army." ”

Yue Fei said: "The minister has rested enough, and he will go to discuss with Xu Xianggong and Zhu Xianggong about the mobilization of the army in a while, and then go to meet with Yang Yizhong as soon as possible, and then the minister will go to Shaanxi to meet Zhang Xian and Wang Yan." ”

Seeing that Yue Fei was so resolute, Li Yan couldn't discourage Yue Fei's enthusiasm, and then acquiesced to Yue Fei's idea, and then changed the topic: "I heard that you brought Yun'er into the army?" ”

Yue Fei replied: "This kid often fights with people in the township, and from time to time he injures people, and his mother, alas, don't say anything, so as not to pollute the ears of the officials...... My mother is old, and Yun'er is at home, so I can't discipline him, so I can only take him with me and discipline him myself. ”

Liu still couldn't endure the loneliness in the end, and during Yue Fei's absence, she abandoned her mother-in-law, Mrs. Yao and several children, left alone, and then her whereabouts are unknown.

Such an unfaithful and unfilial woman, it is no wonder that Yue Fei, who believes in loyalty and filial piety, is reluctant to mention her.

Li Yan said: "You are not yet thirty, if you have a suitable one, find one, otherwise, I will reward you with a few more?" ”

Yue Fei said: "Thank you for the kindness of the officials, but the women you rewarded to the ministers couldn't endure hardships, and they were not all the way to the ministers." ”

Speaking of which, I really don't complain about the beauties that Li Yan rewarded Yue Fei for.

Yue Fei's fortunes and rewards are many, and he can be counted among the hundred Chinese military officials, but he is too generous to his subordinates and the people, making his family so poor that they don't want it, after the beauties go to his house, they all have to be called by old mothers, how can those beauties who have not suffered can stand it?

In the end, all those beauties were returned by Yue Fei.

If this matter is placed in other emperors, there will definitely be something to think of Yue Fei, "Yue Fei is not a woman, and he is not good at money, and he also distributes all his property to his soldiers and ordinary people, isn't this buying people's hearts, what does he want to do, does he want to rebel?" ”

This is also the main reason why people speculated that Li Yan wanted to refrigerate Yue Fei some time ago.

But Li Yan didn't, Li Yan, who knew Yue Fei very well, clearly knew that people like Yue Fei were pursuing a higher level of spiritual pursuit, rather than an unbearable material pursuit.

Therefore, Li Yan did not refrigerate Yue Fei, and also reused Yue Fei more.

It is precisely because of this that seeing that Yue Fei didn't want the beauty he gave him, Li Yan didn't insist, let alone think about it, but said: "Then you can find one yourself...... But I said ugly things in the front, my general in the middle school, I can't even have a wife, I give you two years, if you still can't find it, I will give you a hundred. ”

Yue Fei replied with a bitter face: "No! ”

Li Yan didn't continue the topic anymore, and said, "I heard that Yue Yun, this kid is born with divine power, he is only ten years old, and he is a fierce general who is difficult to defeat in ordinary generals?" ”

Yue Fei's face rarely showed a hint of Cixi, and said, "This kid was born to be a soldier. ”

However, Yue Fei's tone quickly changed, and he said: "But this child is only ten years old, if the official family is reluctant to let him go, just keep him by his side." ”

Although he felt sorry for Yue Yun in his heart, Yue Fei also knew that Li Yan wanted to hand over the 300,000 army to him, and he should leave a hostage for Li Yan.

didn't think about it, but Li Yan didn't even think about it and said: "A natural soldier should belong to the battlefield, he should go to the iron horse and return the horse leather shroud, besides, Yue Yun is your son, what do you do if you stay by my side, I have more than 200 sons, can I still rob your son?" You Yue Pengju, don't want to test my mind, I said that I will give Wan'er to your Yue's family, and I will give you your Yue's family, how can you regret it? You are living in the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain. ”

If others heard this, they would definitely immediately kneel down and ask Li Yan for their guilt!

But Yue Fei didn't, he happily confirmed with Li Yan: "Official, do you agree with the minister to take Yun'er with him for training?" ”

Li Yan said leisurely: "If a dynasty wants to prosper, it can't rely on only one or two generations, so in addition to fighting the country, we must also cultivate young people, what you did is right, why don't I support it?" ”

When Yue Fei heard this, he bowed and said, "The minister thanked the official family for Yun'er." ”

Li Yan asked Yue Fei to get up, and then said: "Although I have more than 400 children, the eldest daughter is Wan'er, so I don't want her to marry a mediocre person, you should train Yun'er well, and let him become a brave and loyal, brave and warlike general like you." ”

When Yue Fei heard this, he couldn't express his respect for Li Yan in any words, and in the end, a thousand words turned into one word: "No!" ”

Li Yan didn't want Yue Fei to not let him stay in Yandi and still have a mustard, plus this matter was about to be announced to the public, Li Yan said again: "Pengju, the reason why I don't let you stay in Yandi is actually another reason, I am going to move the capital, and the new capital is Yanjing ......"
