Chapter Seventy-One: Anger and Shame

readx;?“ I looked at this newspaper, and the gossip confused the public, demagoguery, first humiliating my prestige, and then unashamedly raising the banner of the rebel army in Cangzhou, bewitching the people of the world to abandon the light and turn to the dark. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info" The cold on Zhao Guangyi's face couldn't be dispelled.

"I remember, this newspaper also said that Yang Jiushu, the general of Zhongyuan, led 10,000 forbidden troops to surrender to the New Song Dynasty in Cangzhou, can this matter be confirmed now?"

"Back to Your Majesty, the herald from Qingzhou has reported that 10,000 forbidden troops have indeed appeared in Cangzhou City, and they have not fought against the rebels, I am afraid that I have indeed been sentenced to the Great Song Dynasty." Your Highness, a black-armored veteran said in a serious voice.

Zhao Guangyi's face was gloomy and terrifying, and it took a long time for his voice to come from the main hall.

"The family members of Yang Jiushu and the rebel generals who went out this time were all confiscated into official registration, and all the female dependents were brought into the harem as slaves."

"Back to Your Majesty, the last general has already sent people to the homes of Yang Jiushu and other forbidden army generals this morning, but when they went, they found that the building had already been empty, and I don't know when their families had already left." The black armor veteran said with a glance.

"What?!" At this time, not only Zhao Guangyi was shocked, but even those officials in the court were mouthful, and they couldn't believe the truth of this matter.

But the black armor veteran is none other than Pan Mei Pan Zhongxun, a famous general in the Great Song Dynasty, who followed Taizu all the way to fight the world, participated in the pacification of Li Chongjin's rebellion, guarded Yangzhou and Tanzhou, and relocated the defense envoys. In the third year of Kaibao, he deployed all the soldiers and horses for the camp, led the army to destroy the Southern Han Dynasty, and was named the Duke of Korea, a very popular minister.

His words, no matter how outrageous, have to be believed.

"Does anyone know when they left?"

"The last general sent people to inquire about the houses, and they learned from the mouths of the people that no one had come to these houses since a few days ago." The black-armored veteran is already serious.

"Bastard!" The anger on Zhao Guangyi's face finally exploded, not only because the newspapers were short of him, but also because he actually found that as a dignified emperor, when someone dared to threaten him, he couldn't come up with any means to deal with it.

This feeling irritated him.

"Korean Gong." Although every cell in Zhao Guangyi's body was roaring, he still restrained himself and called the black-armored veteran in a cold voice.

"The end will be." Pan Mei immediately knelt down on one knee with a serious expression.

"I have appointed you as the generalissimo of the expedition to the west, but you can command 40,000 forbidden troops, plus 60,000 Gyeonggi soldiers, a total of 100,000 troops, plus the latest batch of divine arm crossbows that will be produced by the superintendent, I must hear the news of your extermination of the Cangzhou bandits within three months, you may be able to do it?"

Pan Mei's face was still unfazed, and he still said in his deep bass: "The last general commands." ”

On the main hall, everyone gasped, 40,000 forbidden troops, plus 60,000 Gyeonggi soldiers, a total of 100,000 troops, plus the divine arm crossbow, this configuration is basically enough to go on an expedition to Liao, but now the emperor is determined to put Cangzhou's new policy to death.

"Your Majesty, I think that this move is probably up for debate." Zhao Pu wiped the sweat from his forehead, walked up and said: "The Liao State has coveted my Great Song border for a long time, although they are now supporting the Northern Han Dynasty and not fighting the border, but if my Great Song Dynasty rashly sends troops, the Beijing and Zhejiang regions will inevitably be empty. ”

Zhao Guangyi sat on the emperor's lean, without saying a word, and no one knew what he was thinking.

"The minister thinks that what Zhao Zuocheng said is very true, and the minister praises it."

"Minister's Praise...."

Half of the civil and military officials of His Royal Highness knelt down one after another, expressing the hope that Zhao Guangyi would think about it again.

The atmosphere in the main hall was extremely strange for a while, but because of the particularity of the incident, no one dared to continue to speak, so it was so deadlocked for an hour of incense.

Zhao Guangyi slowly spoke, "Leave 20,000 forbidden troops to guard Bianjing, and the remaining 20,000 troops will be sent to Cangzhou, plus the Jinggi soldiers, a total of 80,000 soldiers. Pan Shuai, go ahead! ”

Pan Mei, who had been kneeling, nodded resolutely and said, "The last general will lead the order." Then he walked out of the main hall in a hurry, leaving only everyone looking at each other.....

..........

The capital has turned upside down, Jiang Yin is completely an idler who doesn't think it's a big deal to see the excitement, spreading Zhao Guangyi's deeds everywhere, the major restaurants and tea shops in Bianjing, and today they are competing to spread the versions of the stories that Jiang Yin said.

People just love to listen to stories, and this thing can't change for thousands of years.

Newton really didn't just discover the three laws when an apple fell on his head, but they were the laws of physics that were derived after a lot of research.

But to tell those ordinary people that Newton worked hard in the laboratory to develop the three laws of physics, it will definitely be ridiculed.

But if you add the story of an apple smashing its head, then everything is completely different.

A good story can make things spread at the speed of light, especially the kind of half-truths.

Jiang Yin specially made up so many stories for Zhao Guangyi, what secretly fell in love with Xiao Zhou, the queen of the Southern Tang Dynasty Li Yu, who was under house arrest, and why did he plan to poison the queen of the Southern Tang Dynasty while the eldest brother was not in Qiang Xingxiao Zhou.....

This kind of lace news can also attract a lot of attention in later generations, and it is simply the most valuable conversation after tea and dinner this thousand years ago.

Although the majesty of the emperor is still there, but the law does not blame the public, once everyone discusses the emperor, it will be no big deal, after all, everyone has opened their mouths, this must be arrested, isn't it everyone to arrest.

Therefore, the story that Jiang Yin spread out spread faster and more widely, even faster than the newspapers he printed, in short, Zhao Guangyi's reputation is now completely difficult to wash, for the Great Song people who have no news, the emperor's stain can be remembered for a lifetime.

Jiang Yin then waited for Zhao Guangyi's counterattack, and for this reason, he also specially ran to the pillars of the main hall of the Taihe Hall to "audit" Zhao Guangyi's final disposal of Cangzhou.

The ending did not surprise Jiang Yin's expectations, and Zhao Guangyi, who was embarrassed and angry, sent a mature and stable general like Pan Mei, with an army of 80,000, to prepare to completely knock himself to death in Cangzhou with a hammer, but he was still a little anxious, and he didn't take a closer look at Yang Jiushu's interview.

What is 80,000 troops, that is only eight times that of 10,000 troops, for this number, Jiang Yin said that the island he has now is enough to trap 8 million troops.

Of course, these Pan Mei didn't know, so he was about to embark on the same road of no return as Yang Jiushu......
