In the evening of the next day, the envoy sent by Yang Qing returned.

Uh, only partially back.

Just a part of each of their bodies coming back, to be exact!

A total of one hundred and twenty officials, squires and scholars who were escorted or escorted to Tianchang by the Jinyi guards to persuade Gao Yigong to withdraw his army, finally returned one hundred and twenty heads, which were loaded in four carriages, and were driven by the Jinyi guards who escorted them, and drove into Liuhe City in the twilight in the snow, and slowly drove through the long streets with desolation and misery......

However, these brocade guards were all unscathed, and it could be seen that all the little faces were red from drinking, which was obviously very well received.

"It's madness!"

In the face of this scene, Uncle Zhong Yong was furious.

"Yes, it depends on the owner to beat the dog, he actually doesn't give the lord face so much!"

Tian Xiong said indignantly.

"Fight, who's afraid of whom!"

Ma Degong drew his knife and brandished it and shouted.

These two notorious guys are now very good at taking on the role of Lord Yang's second general, which makes Yang Qing embarrassed to kill them.

"Yes, let's order all the soldiers and horses to kill the past, these traitors are simply too rampant, I really think we are easy to bully! Lao Tzu Jiannu has cut off tens of thousands of heads, and you are still afraid of them? Sir, you can give the order! The brothers were not ambiguous when they followed the lord to kill Jiannu, and today they will follow the lord to teach these rebels a good lesson, kill them without leaving a piece of armor, and let them know that our officers and soldiers are not easy to mess with! ”

Fang Guoan said with the same high morale on the side.

It is said that the battle of Tashan has become his main magic weapon for pretending to be forced, and now the number of Qing troops he killed has swelled to more than 10,000, but the soldiers under his subordinates who have experienced the test of this battle are indeed the strongest combat effectiveness among the three armies in Beijing at this time. Especially after the soldiers received Chongzhen's special preferential treatment and directly became Chongzhen's house slaves in a sense, their morale has been reborn, after all, they have completely no worries, and after training in strict accordance with Qi Jiguang's art of war, they are already moving closer to the level of the Qi family's army back then.

The other generals were equally indignant.

"Everyone, don't be bored!"

Yang Qing waved his hand very generously and said.

"This revenge must be avenged......"

Before he finished speaking, he saw a figure walk to the first carriage, stretched out his hand and gently stroked the head of a dead person with an expressionless face, trying to make the head that actually belonged to the current Chuzhou Governor close his eyes, but unfortunately, because of the cold, these heads were actually frozen, and they were completely a pile of ice mounds, and the frozen eyelids couldn't close no matter how he closed them......

"Shi Gebu, you mourn, He Gong is also loyal to the emperor, ask for benevolence, and die well!"

Yang Qing said sadly.

"That's what you want?"

Shi Kefa sneered.

"Cabinet Department, why do you say that? I'm also for the emperor, to avoid a bloody battle! ”

Yang Qing said with an aggrieved face.

"You see that these soldiers also have wives and children in their families, even if they die with the help of the court, those orphans and widows are inevitably suffering from hunger and cold, although it is natural to be a soldier to fight, but if you can solve it without fighting it is the best, and the battle is full of bones and bones.

It's also for the sake of these brothers.

It's just that I didn't expect this high rebellion to be so ferocious and barbaric, it's outrageous!

However, the Jin Yiwei who came back said that Gao Yi also treated each other politely and was quite deferential at the beginning, but He Zhizhou and others were too anxious, and actually tried to persuade Gao Cheng to turn against Li Zicheng, they probably didn't know that Gao Yi was Li Zicheng's wife and brother, and he was Li Zicheng's most trusted henchman, and he was loyal to Li Zicheng. ”

Yang Qing then said with regret.

He's not lying.

At the beginning, when these people went, Gao Yigong really thought that Yang Qing sent them, and then he deducted the basin to Gao Jie's head as agreed, and these people came back and told them that Chongzhen just had to get off the donkey down the slope, and it was also one of the scripts to send envoys here. As a result, this He Zhizhou probably misunderstood that his attitude was really yearning for the imperial court, so in the spirit of a miracle of a piece, he began to bewitch Gao Yigong to create Li Zicheng's opposite, saying that this can be regarded as a dizzy of Li Lingzhi.

Gao Yigong was immediately stunned.

What the hell is this?

How could Yang Qing send him such a fool as a contact person?

He immediately sent someone out to ask the Jinyi guards who were in charge of escorting, the latter had fought side by side with his people, and at this time the old man was drinking hotly outside! After asking, he naturally said very simply how these guys came from, Gao Yigong suddenly realized, saying that Gao Yigong definitely gave Lord Yang face, unceremoniously dragged these guys out and cut them down, and then sent the head back directly.

But to say that Yang Qing's purpose from the beginning was to let Gao Yigong kill them, then he was really wronged.

He just didn't care if they lived or died.

Anyway, these people are waste utilization, and if Gao Yigong doesn't kill them, then use their mouths to complete the follow-up part of this script, if Gao Yigong kills them......

Then kill it!

"Uncle Zhong Yong is kind-hearted!"

Shi Kefa sneered.

"I've always been soft-hearted, and I can feel guilty for days when I walk and step on an ant to death!"

Yang Qing said shamelessly.

"Since Uncle Zhong Yong is so kind-hearted, then the old man will fulfill you, didn't they fail to persuade the rebels? The old man went in person, and the old man went to persuade him to make a meritorious service, and he must not let the hard work of Uncle Zhong Yong go to waste! ”

Shi Kefa said.

"Scott Department, are you really playing?"

Yang Qing was stunned.

"Of course it's true, the old man has the responsibility of supporting the society as the head of the cabinet, but it's a pity that a literati can't go into battle to kill the enemy, but there is still a three-inch tongue, although it is not as good as Su Qin and Zhang Yi, he is also quite eloquent, and it is enough to show the sincerity of the court to persuade in person, since Uncle Zhong Yong said that Gao Yigong has always been deferential, then I think I will give the old man a face."

Shi Kefa said.

"Cabinet Department, what if that high merit is as stubborn as ever!"

Song Quan hurriedly said.

"That old man can follow the footsteps of Yan Lugong, and he has no regrets when he dies!"

Shi Kefa said.

Obviously, this is his real purpose, he knows that he has been ruined, he just wants to use death to protect his reputation, if he can persuade Gao Yigong to quit the army, of course it is good, if he can't, then simply provoke Gao Yigong to kill him, so that he can also be the Yan Zhenqing of the Ming Dynasty. This will be enough to save his reputation, so as not to disgrace his teacher in the spirit of heaven, after all, he has been martyred in this way, and those scholars will no longer record him as a traitor in the history books.

After all, he still can't think about it!

In the final analysis, he still values his reputation more than his life, and what he is most afraid of is that he will be written as a traitor in the history books, in order to get the reputation of a loyal and virtuous minister, he can pay the price of his life, which can be regarded as the legacy of the ancient sages, at least in the late Ming Dynasty, in this era of scum, he is indeed worthy of respect in terms of pure personal morality.

However......

Yang Qing didn't let him get his wish.

He wants to let Shi Kefa live as a Donglin traitor, endure the scolding of the gentry as a symbol of shame of the Donglin Party, and let him become more and more brilliant in the scolding, so that he can be respected by the people in the scolding of the gentry. Then let those who scolded him gradually become clowns in the eyes of the people, and let this traitor to the Donglin Party who has rebelled at this moment become a great man in the hearts of the people, so that the Donglin Party will be dim under his background, it can be said that his special banner does not fall, and the Donglin Party will never get rid of his shadow.

"That's right, how dare you retreat when the Cabinet Department has such a high wind and bright festival, I, Yang Qing, am willing to walk with the Cabinet!"

Yang Qing said.

"Huh?!"

Everyone was dumbfounded.

Next to him, Song Quan looked at them directly with a collapsed gaze.

"What are you guys going to do?"

I guess a cry was coming out of his heart.

"Uncle Zhongyong, are you serious?"

Shi Kefa was also confused, he looked at Yang Qing with a puzzled expression and asked.

"Rest assured, I Yang Qing don't say anything else, it's a good martial arts, I can protect the emperor from the chaos of the army, even if the high one is rude to the cabinet, I will fight to the death to protect the cabinet, even if there is a misfortune to be harmed by thieves, the cabinet will be famous in history, and Qing will also make a note in the annals of history!"

Yang Qing said righteously.

"Uncle Zhongyong, Cabinet, two prudent!"

Song Quan hurriedly said.

"Song Gong doesn't need to persuade him anymore, Qing has made up his mind!"

Yang Qing said.

Shi Kefa didn't say anything more, but he could see that the expression on his face was complicated!

That was a real mess of his mind.

It is said that he should take the opportunity to drag this evil eunuch minions over and die together, anyway, he is going to beg for death, and as long as Yang Qing is dragged to die in the hands of Gao Yigong, he can get rid of this executioner who harmed the righteous people for the Gonggong Zhugong, and return a bright future. But the problem is that Yang Qing took the initiative to go to protect him, this kindness can be said to be unfalse, if he does this, he will be ungrateful, which obviously violates his principles of life, but the poor Shi Pavilion Department is really confused at this moment.

Poor him, how do you know that Yang Qing and that Gao Yigong are in the same group!

How did he know that this bastard was just taking this opportunity to go to Gao Yigong to complete the follow-up conspiracy!

In the end, he still didn't stop Yang Qing, and the two left Liuhe to go north to the base camp of Tianchang's Shunjun after the snow stopped the next day, and arrived on the morning of the third day after a quick journey, and then was welcomed into the city by Gao Yigong, who was also confused, because he didn't understand what Yang Qing was playing, Gao Yigong did meet the standard of courtesy for them and his party, and even Shi Kefa's obvious arrogant attitude was ignored by him.
