Chapter 974: If I help you, you will also help me

With Yan Zeng's help, the Black Flag Army's journey north through Liyin City became smooth. There are three passes to the north of Liyin City, and the guards guarding these three passes are familiar with Yan Zeng, after all, when Yan Zeng was put into Gao Kaitai's army, Gao Kaitai had just been ordered to gather the 200,000 troops. At that time, Gao Kaitai's generals were not very familiar, and it was the best time to establish a relationship.

Yan Zeng is a person with great ambitions, how can he not make friends with a group of generals.

There were no troops at the three passes, and Yan Zeng personally went to the gate to surrender the generals guarding the passes. Most of the generals in Gao Kaitai's army have real talents and real learning, these people are from families and look at the situation the most poisonous, how can they not know that following Gao Kaitai will not do much. Now that Wang Yiqu is inexplicably dead, some people say that Gao Kaitai sent someone to assassinate him, and some people say that he was killed by Jianghu guests, but no matter how Wang Yiqu died, the contradictions that existed in Wang Gao's coalition army completely broke out.

Wang Yiqu relied on his old qualifications, and the strength of the Wang family was also quite strong, so he always regarded himself as the first person in the army. When he just raised the flag to rebel, Gao Kaitai wanted to make a difference and couldn't do without Wang Yiqu's sailor, so he also respected him as the leader of the army. At the beginning, several generals in Gao Kaitai's army were very unconvinced by Wang Yiqu's Tianwang Laozi's faction, and scolded Wang Yiqu behind his back.

However, Wang Yiqu still maintained a minimum attitude with Gao Kaitai on the surface, especially after arriving in Gyeonggi Province, Wang Yiqu knew that his sailor was gradually losing his role, so his attitude towards Gao Kaitai became more and more respectful. However, because of this, Wang Yiqu's subordinates also began to have psychological changes.

People in business will always mention the saying that cooperative business cannot be done. Nine times out of ten, the partnership between two people will end up unhappily. was originally a good friend, but in the end they didn't get along with each other because of their interests.

After Wang Yiqu died, Gao Kaitai was naturally the only leader in the army, but Wang Yiqu's subordinates didn't think so, so since these days, the situation in Gao Wang's coalition army has been very delicate.

Because of the civil strife, the Gao Wang coalition army is now panicked.

How could Yan Zeng not know this, but he didn't understand Fang Jie, and he didn't know if Fang Xie would accept him, if he surrendered rashly, he wouldn't be thrown aside like a piece of garbage. And out of the self-esteem of a soldier, he had to fight his dignity in the battle of Liyin City.

As Fang Xie said, he did not destroy the granary because he left a way out for himself. And in fact, when a soldier begins to make a way out for himself, then nine times out of ten he will be defeated. This back road does not refer to a strategic retreat, but a vacillation of will.

The three guards were already disappointed in the Gaowang coalition army, and no one was willing to accompany them to death. Yan Zeng was like a smooth downhill road, swinging in front of them, and they ran down the slope.

For half a month, the speed of the Black Flag Army going north became faster and faster, but there was not a single battle. Except for the elimination of some bandits along the way, there was not a single war on a large scale.

Fang Xie remembered the scene that he had often hallucinated before, the golden-armored general sitting on a huge chariot, marching north with countless black-armored soldiers. When he was at the port of the Yangtze River, the local gentry and people sent him a golden armor, and at that moment Fang Xie had a feeling that was difficult to express.

He doesn't think of hallucinations as a hint, a life that has already been arranged.

Perhaps, a long, long time ago, Fang Xie had such a big and magnificent dream in his heart, but this dream has been lurking in the corner and has never come out. When he went south to the mouth of the Yangtze River, saw the big mountain and the high platform, and heard about the feat of the Sui army going south, this dream came out of the corner.

I just had something in mind.

The team was progressing smoothly, and Fang Jie's mood gradually relaxed. In fact, the saddest thing for people is the threshold in their hearts, once it passes, everything is fine.

After taking Liyin City, there was no need to worry about the grain and grass, and the grain route was directly transferred from the southwest of the south of the Yangtze River to the north of the Yangtze River, which was the biggest benefit for the Northern Expedition of the Great Army.

And what made Fang Xie happiest was that the white lion was back in chaos.

It's just that the white lion is obviously not in the right state, his eyes are always so fluttering, and when he first came back, he rubbed his huge head against Fang Jie's body, and the sadness in his eyes was so strong. In an instant, Fang Xie knew what was happening.

He just couldn't believe it.

He didn't know how high the man in white's cultivation was, but he was sure that even Zhang Yiyang of Wudang Mountain, who had reached the sky, or Xiao Yijiu of Qingle Mountain, was not the opponent of the man in white. He even thought that Zhang Yiyang and Xiao Yijiu might not be the opponents of the man in white.

Such a person, will die?

The appearance of the white lion clearly told Fang Xie that the man in white was dead.

He is a great man who pioneered the cultivation of a field, and no one in this world has been ranked before him since there were historical records. Because of him, the direction of the development of the world has changed radically. Fang Xie didn't think that if there was no Sangchao and no cultivators, then the current Central Plains might be the same as the development of foreigners, and the development trajectory of his previous life.

Practice

Which one is really suitable for people?

Fang Xie came to this world from a highly developed previous life, and he was very unaccustomed to it when he first came. But after so many years, he can no longer be as sure as he was when he first came, that his past life was better than this life. The world is indeed backward, but there are really a lot less dangers for people. Admittedly, there is also a lot less enjoyment.

He stroked the white lion's forehead, and his mind couldn't calm down for a long time.

"You must be sad."

Fang Xie glanced at the white lion, and his tone was very light: "You are not the white lion who followed him at the beginning, but you may be a descendant of the white lion, you met me first, so you are close to me." If you meet him first, you'll definitely follow him, right? I know this feeling very well, it's called ...... Loss of a loved one. ”

The white lion seemed to understand Fang Jie's words, and tears actually flowed down.

……

……

After crossing the entire Jiangbei Road, the Black Flag Army only fought a tragic battle in Liyin City, and the road after that went exceptionally smoothly. Among them, the willingness to naturally have nothing to do with Yang Qinyan, the eldest princess of the Great Sui, because there is the eldest princess of the Great Sui, and many people are willing to lean towards the Black Flag Army.

Passing through all parts of the city, you will see those so-called loyal ministers of the Great Sui standing on both sides of the street to welcome the arrival of Her Royal Highness the eldest princess, and when they saw the woman in the palace skirt appear, they all prostrate down and bow their heads. Of course, the acting skills of these veteran actors are impeccable. When facing Yang Qinyan, it is an attitude called humility. When faced with the solution, there is a different attitude, which is called more humility.

Everyone is not an idiot and stupid, especially after the rumors spread that the little emperor in Chang'an City had been forced to death by the ironclad general, the officials and gentry along the way were even more humble towards Fang Jie. The little emperor died, and so did the guy who claimed to be Yang Jian, the founding emperor of the Great Sui. Now in the entire Great Sui, only the eldest princess can have anything to do with the Yang royal family. And the eldest princess is a woman...... She was still in the Black Flag Army.

Women, in fact, have been excluded from the four words of dominating the world from the very beginning. In everyone's inherent cognition, it is not a relationship between women and the emperor.

So, this choice becomes particularly simple.

Today's Black Flag Army is the most powerful force in the world in the Central Plains, there is no doubt about it. Those who are looking forward to it do not need to continue to worry about who they turn to, if it was difficult to choose at the beginning, then now this choice is not a simple choice of one of three or two, just a choice of one.

The Black Flag Army was in full swing, and the defeat of the Gaowang coalition army was written into the history books by many people before it began.

In the past, there was also the imperial army to suppress the rebellion, no matter who the ironclad general was, the speed of the imperial counterinsurgency army was jaw-dropping, and those who were going to stand in line to express their stance had to stop and see who had the last laugh. In the past, Luo Yao's left avant-garde army swept across the south and north of the Yangtze River, and hundreds of thousands of troops were captured by him alone. In the past, the teams of the two brothers, Jin Shixiong and Jin Shiduo, echoed in the north and south, and were also considered to be very promising to occupy the Dragon Court. In the past, after Shengtu took over the Luo family's army, although he was defeated in successive battles, he took the lead in claiming the emperor Yu Jiangnan, and no one dared to deny whether he could go to the last step.

Now, these people are dead.

In front of Fang Xie was only one Gao Kaitai.

As for Chang'an City...... Hehe.

Those people in Chang'an City are far smarter than those outside. Speaking of standing in line and making choices, among the big people who can settle in Chang'an City, which one is an idiot and a fool? As long as Fang Jie's army drove to Chang'an City to defeat Gao Kaitai, that Fang Xie received a letter of goodwill from Chang'an City, and he was afraid that he would have to use a basket to fill it.

The team stopped at the border between Gangbuk-do and Gyeonggi-do, and the continuous rapid march was also a challenge for the soldiers. It is about to enter Gyeonggi Province, and it is necessary to face a decisive battle with Ko Kaitai, and the soldiers must rest.

The eldest princess, Yang Qinyan, got out of the carriage and glanced at the vaguely familiar scenery around her, but there was no expression on her face. Although she couldn't help but think of the hardships she had had had along the way when she escaped from Chang'an City, it seemed that the hardships had drifted away from her now.

Not far from the carriage, Yan Qing, the old professor of the Yanwu Academy, and Xie Fuyao, the youngest professor, were talking in a low voice. The mission of the two of them is to protect Yang Qinyan's safety, and it has nothing to do with war.

From coming out to going back, it was a dream for Yang Qinyan.

A dream she thought would end with a perfect ending, even if the process was bumpy and difficult, it was beautiful in the end. Now, though, she doesn't think about it anymore.

"Have you ever thought about what posture you should use to face the courtiers and the people after entering Chang'an City?"

Seeing Fang Xie coming over, Yang Qinyan asked.

Fang Xie was stumped by this sudden question, he really hadn't figured out what posture he should take to enter Chang'an City.

"I heard that your subordinates, especially the person named Dugu Wenxiu, have spared no effort to persuade you to become king? He's a qualified subordinate, it's not a counterstatement. ”

Fang Xie didn't answer, Dugu Wenxiu stopped him that day and mentioned it, and he didn't say anything at that time. For the Black Flag Army, it would indeed be beneficial if he was promoted to the throne. However, he always felt that it was too fast.

"I'll help you with this."

Yang Qinyan's words were very plain and sincere: "Before entering Gyeonggi Province, I will convene a convener in the name of the eldest princess of Da Sui to announce in public that you started in the southwest, and your foundation is in Zhuque Mountain, Huangyang Road. ”

"I'll help you with this, but there's one thing you have to promise me."

She said.

Fang Xie glanced at her: "You say." ”

Yang Qinyan was silent for a moment and then said very seriously: "After entering Chang'an City, I will return to the dome to guard filial piety for the first emperor, regardless of government affairs. You are in charge of the courtiers, and I will not interfere in what you do. However, my younger brother Yang Chengqian wants to enter the imperial mausoleum, and a state funeral will be held according to the regulations of the Great Sui Emperor. ”

"Good"

Fang Xie nodded: "This is not something that should not be done, Yang Chengqian is the Emperor of the Great Sui, no one can deny it." ”
