Yang Xuangan smiled slightly: "You Yushi, you are a civil official, I think that these urgent information can only go through the official and regular channels, from the post station, but I, Yang Xuangan, have been in the army for many years, and the army naturally has its own way of transmitting information. ”

Yang Xuangan said, left the big case, and walked to the courtyard outside the house, and the more than 20 officials also followed behind, standing on the steps in front of the house, looking at Yang Xuangan one by one, with a curious look in his eyes, You Yuan squinted his eyes slightly, stroked the beard under his chin, and remained silent.

Yang Xuangan pinched his fingers into his mouth, whistled loudly, and there was a sharp whistling sound in the air, which seemed to be sent by a bird of prey, everyone looked up to the sky, but only saw that above this small courtyard, there were several goshawks circling, with Yang Xuangan's whistle, a goshawk about four feet wide, hovered down from the air, Yang Xuangan stretched out his right arm forward, this goshawk fell to Yang Xuangan's right arm impartially, a pair of sharp eyes, vigilantly staring at these people behind Yang Xuangan.

Yang Xuangan took out a yellow silk cloth strip from his arms expressionlessly, wrapped his left hand around the eagle's feet, Li Mi on the side stepped forward and took out two pieces of five pieces of meat from his arms.

Yang Xuangan touched the feathers of this goshawk, and suddenly his arm shook, and the goshawk screamed, soared into the air, spread its wings, and flew towards the east, and after a while, it became only a black dot and disappeared into the distant clouds.

Yang Xuangan looked back at the stunned officials and said with a smile: "The military situation is like fire." Therefore, the general often delivers the message through various means. The Stagecoach is just the slowest one. Similar to official documents, really urgent news, or flying eagles and flying pigeons, or lighting wolf smoke, how can it be possible to wait until two or three days later to spread the news to the rear? Ladies and gentlemen, do you have any questions this time? ”

You Yuan gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice: "Even if it's this kind of flying eagle book. Does it have to be accurate? A major event like rebellion must be confirmed by multiple reliable channels. What if the message is faked? What if Laihu'er just dispatched troops to suppress bandits or pacify the bandits in the Donglai area? If Laihu'er didn't rebel, but we mobilized troops here, wouldn't it be us who rebelled? ”

Yang Xuangan's face sank, and he said sharply: "You Yushi, you should be able to see that this kind of flying eagle book has undergone strict training, and there will be absolutely no mistake." The Shandong area has been hit by General Zhang Xutuo Zhang, and several bandits were rampant in the previous period. For example, Wang Bo, Ge Qian and other departments have all collapsed, where are the big bandits? But there in Hebei, a group of thieves swarmed, Zhang Jin said, Gao Kaidao, Hao Xiaode, Pei Changcai, Sun Xuanya, Dou Jiande and others, have already been able to attack the state and plunder the county, this is also the reason why we have to wait for the safety of the waterway before we can send the ship. ”

Yang Xuanzong, who had been prepared for a long time, suddenly drew his saber, and in the shining sword light, with the killing intent that soared to the sky, he said sharply: "If there are conspirators with the anti-thief, that is, they will be treated as the same crime of great rebellion!" ”

With Yang Xuanzong's move, all the sergeants drew their blades in unison, and for a while, the entire courtyard was full of swords, and these well-trained elites struck the armor or shields on their bodies with the back of their swords, and shouted in unison: "Destroy the thieves and defend the country!" Destroy the thieves and defend the country! ”

Many timid officials were so frightened that they were sweating like pulp, and even one guy peed out unconsciously, and the voices of several middle-level officials were trembling: "Everything, everything, but according to Yang Shangshu's arrangement." ”

"I'll wait, I'll wait, but Yang Shangshu is the first to look forward!"

You Yuan was so angry that he stomped his feet and shouted: "Shameless people who are greedy for life and afraid of death, how can the Supreme take a fancy to you people and let you be officials?" ”

Yang Xuangan's face changed, and he was about to attack, but Li Mi gently patted him on the shoulder, signaling him to temporarily rest his anger, Yang Xuangan's eyes narrowed slightly, and he stopped the words that came to his mouth, only to see Li Mi with a smile on his face, and said to You Yuan: "You Yushi, Yang Shangshu is temporarily disposed of, and he wants to face the rebels, how can this be called greed for life and fear of death?" If you don't let everyone go to war, this is disloyal to the court. ”

You Yuan had a sneer on his face: "Pushan County Prince, if the official remembers well, you are now a white-bodied person with a knight and no official, this transfer of Liyang is not something you should meddle in, when you came to Yang Shangshu last month, the old man asked you, you said at the time that you and Yang Shangshu were righteous brothers and came to help him, but in the past month or so, the old man has observed many times, but found that Your Excellency never helped to assist in those supply and transportation matters, but took a few of your subordinates with you all day long, Investigate at the key passes of Guanshan around Liyang, as soon as Yang Shangshu said today that he came to protect his children and rebelled, you, a great literati, will be fully armed immediately, what do you want to do? ”

Li Mi's smile gradually dissipated on his face: "You Yushi, this Liyang Cangcheng is the supply lifeline of the Liaodong army, it is very important, these things of transporting grain and supervising transportation, just rely on the followers and handle it according to the rules, why use me Li Mi?" What I have to worry about here is naturally Liyang's precautions, and, to tell you the truth, those spies who came to protect the children were also arranged by me and my eldest brother. If not, how can we react today? ”

You Yuan gritted his teeth: "Reaction? You have acted in such a play, in addition to being able to scare a few death-fearing ghosts, who else can you deceive? Do you think everyone is a fool? Don't you just want to use the rebellion to recruit men and horses in the neighborhood and do your unspeakable deeds? ”

Yang Xuangan's face changed, and he roared angrily: "Bold You Yuan, I respect you as an old minister of the two dynasties, and my ancestor also once respected you, so I gave you everywhere, even if you repeatedly questioned my orders as an official, I still patiently explained to you, now that the matter of coming to protect the child has been conclusively proven, but you are here to say that I counterattack to protect the child with ulterior motives?" I think you're the same party who came to protect your children! Come on, take You Yuan down for me! ”

Before the sergeants on both sides stepped forward, a fat man wearing the light red official robe worn by a five-rank official quickly rolled up his sleeves, rushed forward with an arrow step, locked You Yuan's right arm fiercely, and shouted: "You Yuan is rude, take it down on the order of Lord Yang Shangshu!"
