No one wants to die.

Only a very small number of people are loyal and fearless of death.

Otherwise, the Han family will not change frequently.

Lu Duan's shouts still had an effect after all.

With Lu Duan's efforts, the shouting and killing sound gradually became smaller.

In the end, it was clearly divided into two groups again.

One wave is entrenched by the river, and the other wave is blocked by the river.

The soldiers of the forbidden army and the southern army fought for a while, and it turned into a confrontation between the two armies again.

Lu Duan replaced Yang San's right to speak, rode his horse to the door of the soldiers of the forbidden army, and said in a loud voice: "The combat effectiveness of the soldiers of the forbidden army is obvious to all. If it weren't for the improper selection of people by the imperial court, we would have taken advantage of the opportunity, and I am afraid that we would not have been able to defeat you easily.

As the saying goes, it is born from the same root, so why not be in a hurry.

The Southern Kingdom and the Song Kingdom are all in power by the men of my Han family, and they all belong to the same lineage.

If it continues to consume each other in this way, it will only make the relatives painful and the enemies happy.

You have now lost the opportunity, and a large number of ordnance has not yet crossed the river.

If you fight with us, there will be no good end.

When you die, you are still happy.

But have you ever thought about your wife, children, and mothers at home? ”

Lu Duan's words were beautiful, not only showing the strong side of the Southern Army, but also praising the forbidden army by the way.

Implication.

It's not that you can't fight, it's that your commanders are a bit of scum.

And if we had not been deceitful, we would not have been able to overcome you.

Hearing these words in the ears of the soldiers of the forbidden army, it was extremely comfortable.

Few people are willing to admit that they are no better than others.

Even if they are beaten by others, they must maintain a pride in their hearts.

Lu Duan's words touched their hearts.

Seeing that the soldiers of the forbidden army did not refute his words, Lu Duan knew that his words had an effect, and immediately he continued: "Your Majesty of my family is benevolent and never kills indiscriminately, and it has even relieved the suffering of nearly 10 million men of my Han family who were enslaved.

For example, we won't talk about things such as Zheng Yanyun and relieving my tens of millions of Han family men from being enslaved.

Let's just talk about those who are closer to you.

Former.

The late Emperor Xian's Northern Expedition was a poor move, which led to hundreds of thousands of forbidden soldiers being calculated by the Liao.

It was His Majesty that reminded the soldiers of the forbidden army in advance, so that tens of thousands of soldiers of the forbidden army survived.

It was also our Majesty who reached out to the hundreds of thousands of soldiers of the forbidden army when they were in danger and took them in.

I think there is no shortage of your former colleagues among these people.

I should have told you what happened to them.

You also know in your hearts how Your Majesty treats them. ”

Lu Duan paused and said solemnly: "I want to tell you this to tell you that Your Majesty is a benevolent monarch, and he is not willing to kill the men of my Han family.

Our two armies are facing each other at the moment, and if we are not careful, tens of thousands of brothers will die tragically.

This is not what Your Majesty wants to see, and it is not what you want to see.

So ......"

Lu Duan slowly raised his hand and arched his hand: "I implore you, think about the other brothers around you, and put down your swords." As long as you put down your swords, we are brothers like a family. ”

When the soldiers of the forbidden army heard this, they subconsciously looked at their colleagues.

Looking at the strong Southern Army on the opposite side, they had a plan in their hearts.

Everyone's eyes subconsciously looked at the leading generals.

The leading generals are not stupid, they naturally feel the needle-like gaze behind them.

Who wants to die if they can live?

And many of them know what life those former colleagues who went to Yan Country are doing.

When he first entered the Yan Kingdom, he encountered a food shortage.

It's been a bit hard.

However, Yang Qi, as the king of a country, did not hesitate to risk his life and personally went to sea to catch food for them.

The sincerity with which they were treated on this basis alone was not something that any other monarch could do.

Some generals were about to drop their weapons immediately.

was stopped by the generals around him.

In the strange eyes of his colleagues, he took a step forward and shouted: "Lord Lu, when you were in Bianjing in the past, your humble position was also related to you. I have a few words I want to ask you now, and I hope you will tell you the truth about the relationship between you in the past. ”

Lu Duan said uprightly: "You talk ......"

The general said in a deep voice: "If our brother votes for you, will he be regarded as a native of Yan or a native of the south in the future?" ”

Lu Duan was stunned when he heard this.

This may seem like a simple question, but it's not easy to answer.

Yan people and southern people are different after all.

Lu Duan pondered for a moment, and said solemnly: "Yan Kingdom and Nanguo are all one family. ”

The general groaned, nodded slowly, and asked, "Then if our brother votes for you, will you be reduced to slavery?" After all, there have been many cases of prisoners of war as slaves in your country......"

When Lu Duan heard this, he said coldly almost without thinking: "My Majesty once said, Han'er...... Not slaves! ”

Han'er ...... Not slaves!

Five short words, but full of power.

When the soldiers of the forbidden army heard this, they were all shocked.

In the eyes of the generals of the forbidden army, there was also a little more strange look.

He suddenly understood a little why Yang Qi still chose to fight in the south and the north when the Yan Kingdom was weak.

That's it.

Han'er is not a slave!

Any man from the Han family will not be indifferent when he hears this sentence.

Those who shouted this sentence abounded.

But counting the history, there seem to be very few kings who can do this.

But all the men who can enlist in the army have more or less blood and courage in their chests than others.

Hearing this, it is impossible to be indifferent.

The Forbidden Army General originally had a few words to ask, but after hearing this sentence, he no longer had any hesitation in his heart.

"Huh~"

He took the lead in kneeling on one knee and said in a deep voice: "Yang Ming, the commander of the Qingyi Battalion of the left wing of the Japanese army, please surrender!" ”

With him taking the lead, the other soldiers also fell to the ground on one knee.

Lu Duan nodded excitedly and said, "Okay...... You don't have to be polite, please get up quickly. Come with me to see my second and third generals......"

Yang Er had already arrived, but he didn't bother much when he saw Lu Duan persuading the soldiers of the forbidden army to surrender.

After the soldiers of the forbidden army met Yang Er and Yang San again.

Yang Er sent people to collect their weapons, leaving only a few generals' blades.

Then Lu Duan led them into the big tent of the Chinese army.

In the big tent of the Chinese army, there is only Yang Er.

Yang San was placing those descendants.

After the generals entered the big tent of the Chinese army, they paid homage to Yang Er, and after Yang Er invited them to sit down, he said: "Today's righteous act of everyone has eliminated a sword soldier. Yang is here to thank you.

If you have any inconvenient requests to outsiders, you can tell Yang now.

When this war is over, Yang will personally write a letter to Your Majesty, so that Your Majesty can try your best to meet your requirements. ”

Yang Er was so frank and frank, but it made the generals of the forbidden army who had just surrendered a little confused.

A few people pushed and shoved, and they didn't know what to say.

Seeing this, Yang Er pointed at one of them and said with a smile: "Your name is Yang Ming?" ”

Yang Ming bowed down and said: "If you return to the second general, it is Yang Ming who is lowly. ”

Yang Er nodded and said, "Seeing that you have some prestige among them, it's up to you." Don't worry. ”

Lu Duan smiled on the side and said, "The second general asked you to make a request, and you just asked." You must know that the opportunity must not be lost and will never come again. ”

When Yang Ming heard this, he gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice: "Since the second general let the lowly post speak out, the lowly post is not polite." The lowly people have no other requirements, that is, they hope that after they vote for the Yan Kingdom, they can get the same treatment as the forbidden army brothers who voted for the Yan Kingdom in the past.

As for the rest...... I dare not think about it.

Inferior people have not made an inch, and they are not so cheeky to make other demands. ”

Yang Er was slightly stunned and looked at Lu Duan.

The two looked at each other and smiled.

Yang Er looked at Yang Ming and the others with a smile and said, "Could it be that your family members, have you all ignored them?" ”

Yang Ming was stunned for a moment, and said a little gloomily: "Humble position...... The family members of the lowly positions are all in Bianjing City, and now they have voted for the Yan State, but I am afraid that the court will not let go of the families of the lowly officials. So...... The lowly people dare not think ......"

Yang Er shook his head and said, "No, no, no...... There is nothing to dare to think about. Since I have recruited you, I naturally have to think about you in the future. ”

Yang Ming hesitated: "But the family members of the lowly rank are all in Bianjing City, once the imperial court knows that the lowly ones have voted for the Yan Kingdom." It will surely bring disaster to our families. Even if we lead the soldiers and horses to kill it now, it won't be too late to ......."

Yang Er smiled, laughing very happily, and he said loudly: "From here to Bianjing, there are many obstacles. It really took time, and it was until it reached Bianjing. I'm afraid that your family members have already been poisoned by Zhao Defang.

Now, though, there's a trick. I need your help, and once it happens, your family may be able to return to you safely. ”

Yang Ming's first reaction was not excitement, but a look of disbelief, "This...... It can't be ......"

Yang Er smiled and said, "Nothing is impossible, I won't tell you anything." A few days ago, I received a military report that His Majesty had led the army to take all the lands in the northeast of the Song Kingdom except for Cangzhou City.

Soon, the army will come to Luzhou.

As long as we pursue bravely, we dare to take Jiangning Mansion and fight with Your Majesty before the imperial court kills Er and other family members.

At that time, half of the territory of the Song Kingdom fell into the hands of His Majesty.

The Zhejia of the Northwest Beiliang Kingdom has taken Taiyuan.

The Cao family of Dali in the west has already taken the entire Sichuan and Shu.

At that time, as long as His Majesty is willing, he can take Bianjing City at any time.

At that time, His Majesty only needs to send a letter and tell Zhao Defang that his head is the head of your family.

and forced Zhao Defang to negotiate peace.

Do you think Zhao Defang will agree? ”

Yang Ming was stunned when he heard this.

It only took a few breaths for him to figure it out.

Immediately, he didn't hesitate, immediately knelt down on one knee, and said in a deep voice: "If we can really rescue our family members, we should be driven by the second general." ”

Yang Er slowly stood up, nodded with satisfaction, and said, "Very good, my words were not in vain after all." On the other side of the river, there are still tens of thousands of old departments such as Er.

The general was reluctant to meet them in battle, so he hoped that someone would recruit them.

Wait until our army crosses the river.

Under the assignment of Brother Lu, you and the others will scatter and recruit troops from other parts of Jiangning Mansion respectively.

Within three days, conquer Jiangning Mansion.

Your family will live. ”

Yang Ming and the others saluted together, bowed down and said, "No! ”

That's it.

The army rested for half the night on the other side of the river.

The next day, when the sky was bright.

Yang Ming crossed the river with some of his old troops and surrendered the Song soldiers who had not yet crossed the river.

Since then.

The 250,000 soldiers and horses led by Yang Ning were all swept away overnight.

Inside the Jiangning Mansion.

There was no longer an effective force capable of resisting the gallop of the troops and horses of the Southern Army.

Three days.

Just three days.

Under the pressure of surrender and heavy ammunition.

Jiangning Mansion, Suzhou and other places were all under the control of the Southern Army.

Yang Ning suffered a defeat on the river, resulting in a crushing defeat of the 250,000-strong army.

Yang Yanding waved hundreds of thousands of troops and conquered Jiangning Mansion in three days.

These two things, like wings, spread all over the world.

Anyone who hears these two things.

All looked incredulous.

Inside Bianjing City.

Palace.

After Zhao Defang heard these two news in his ears together, he immediately sat down on the dragon chair and couldn't get up.

The loss of Gangning, the loss of Jeju, Cheongju, Dengju, Suzhou, etc.

Hedong and Jiangnan are all controlled by Yang Qi.

Half of the Great Song Dynasty was lost.

And that's not all.

Sichuan and Shu in the west were also lost.

Taiyuan Mansion in the north was also lost.

For a time, the Great Song Dynasty was stormy.

"I! I want to destroy Yang Ning's Nine Clans! ”

Zhao Defang, who finally relieved himself, said that his first sentence was to destroy the Yang Ning Nine Clans.

Immediately.

Some courtiers stood up to stop it.

"Your Majesty, this battle is not Yang Ning's fault, but the soldiers of the forbidden army are unwilling to fight to the death, and they have the idea of surrendering to the enemy. This led to a crushing defeat of the 250,000-strong army. ”

"Fart, if it weren't for Yang Ning's incompetence, how could the 250,000 army be defeated in the hands of the thief army."

“……”

A war of words broke off again.

The civil and military fiercely sprayed in the court.

Yang Ning is right, anyone with a discerning eye can see it.

But what are the ministers defending Yang Ning so for?

is for the sentence that Zhao Defang promised at the beginning of his ascension to the throne that he could not be punished by a doctor.

Today, Yang Ning made a mistake, and his family was exterminated.

Tomorrow if they make a mistake, will their families be destroyed?

That's not going to work.

The civil and military quarreled together.

The more Zhao Defang listened, the more angry he became, and finally couldn't help but roar: "That's enough!" Shut up! ”

However.

The generals' momentum immediately weakened, but Wenchenmen was worthy of him.

Especially the Imperial History.

Immediately, when Zhao Defang was angry, Yu Shi jumped out and said loudly: "What the ministers said, every sentence is for Your Majesty, and every sentence is for my Great Song Sheji."

In this battle of Jiangning Mansion, Yang Ning, as the coach, has an unshirkable responsibility.

However, in comparison, those forbidden army generals and colonels were the real root cause of the defeat of Jiangning Mansion.

Even though Yang Ning is unbearable, he is dying and fighting for His Majesty.

He proved his loyalty with his death.

But what about those forbidden army generals?

They kept saying that they were loyal to His Majesty, but when they saw the enemy approaching the city, they turned against him.

Therefore, the minister thought that they were the root cause of the defeat of Jiangning Mansion this time.

Perhaps, from the very beginning, they had the intention of being a thief.

Some people even secretly colluded with thieves. ”

Yu Shi's words are neither humble nor arrogant, and they are extremely beneficial.

At least Zhao Defang listened to it reasonably.

He didn't personally participate in that war, but just relied on the music to figure it out.

Now, Yang Ning, who is said to be the culprit, died on the battlefield.

And those soldiers of the forbidden army who thought they were loyal and brave voted for the thieves.

Now it is against the imperial court.

With such a comparison, Zhao Defang immediately had an answer in his heart.

"They...... More damn it! ”
