Chapter 141: The Northwest Crisis Resolved
A soldier came with a person, and saw Yang Yong respectfully report: "The head of the family has a letter to."
"Who wrote the letter?". Yang Yong was surprised, now that they were trapped and had long lost contact with the outside world, where did this letter come from.
The messenger respectfully handed a letter in his hand to Yang Yong: "The head of the family is a benefactor's letter."
"Benefactor?". After Yang Yong opened it to watch, he couldn't believe that these were true, and turned his head to Yang Ying with an inquiring look.
Yang Ying understood what Yang Yong meant, and nodded to indicate that this person was fine: "This person is no problem, he is Yang Fan's personal guard, I have seen it."
"Is this all true?". Although Yang Yong heard Yang Ying and was sure that there was no problem with this person, he was still skeptical of the content of the letter.
When the messenger heard Yang Yong's questioning, he defended himself dissatisfiedly: "The head of the family, you don't know the situation at that time, and Engong is like a god. More than 4,000 of us climbed the nameless mountains, captured the pass in one night, and captured the city in the early morning of the next day. Killing Western Xia soldiers is like mowing grass, and it is painful to live."
"More than 4,000 of you have captured the Nameless Mountain Range?". At this time, Yang Ying understood, no wonder Yang Yong couldn't believe it, where was the 60,000 enemy troops guarding the danger, but it was not a real mustard. Unless there is a miracle, it is tantamount to a fantasy with only more than 4,000 people.
Seeing that Yang Yong didn't believe it, the messenger took out another letter: "Enche Dai, if the head of the family doesn't believe it, I can give you this letter."
"Letters? Did Liu Sheng write it? “。 Yang Yong's face was full of suspicion, and he took the letter, and Yang Ying also came to watch. Jia Fu's familiar, chicken-pawed words appeared on the paper. first complained, and then praised himself. Then after saying goodbye that day, how he came to Chang'an, why he came to the northwest, and the discussion with the great elders, the deployment of troops, and the siege of the city, all of them were told one by one. At the end, it is particularly emphasized that Sheng Ge'er means. Nowadays, people are sleepy and tired, and although the nameless mountains are dangerous, they cannot be defended for a long time. At this time, persuade him to come to meet immediately and return to Xiazhou together.
The two of them were dumbfounded, Yang Yong came back to his senses after a while, and sighed after a long time: "Sure enough, it is the prime minister of Buyi, and it will be shocking when he makes a move."
"God bless my Yang family, from ancient times to the present, none of my Yang benefactors are mediocre." After reading the letter, Yang Ying remembered the records at home, throughout the ages, the deeds of those benefactors really deserved their reputation. Perhaps the achievements of today's benevolent father will far exceed those of previous generations. From now on, it will become a story, accompanied by generations of family members, through this life.
Yang Yong swept away the decadence in his heart in the past, and laughed heartily: "Yang Ying, quickly gather the soldiers, let's go home."
"The last general commanded ......". Yang Ying was also overjoyed in her heart, but she didn't expect to be able to survive at this time.
"Knock knock knock ......". The drums sounded, and the soldiers began to assemble with determination on their faces.
When a group of generals saw Yang Yong coming, they held on to their will to die and asked for their lives.
"The head of the family is not willing to die and die in the net, but he will be willing to sacrifice his life for his family and country."
"Please give the order of the head of the family, let us go straight to Xingqing Mansion and fight to the death with Li Hao."
"The head of the family, my Yang son, none of them is a bad seed."
The soldiers were assembled and looked at the place in unison. During this time, they were tormented in their hearts, and they could only slaughter their beloved horses in order to survive, and as a cavalryman, who could really understand the pain in their hearts at this time. They are the iron-blooded Yang clan, so why are they afraid of death.
A general could no longer hold back his grief and indignation, and involuntarily fell to his knees. This spread like a plague, and then both generals and soldiers fell to their knees one after another. All that was left for Yang Yong was silence and silence.
Yang Yong looked at the scene in front of him, and he didn't know the hearts of the soldiers of the whole army: "The general ordered, let's go home."
"Go home?". Tens of thousands of people looked at each other, and they had long been mentally prepared to go to justice bravely. has long understood that in today's predicament, only death can end. I thought that the order of the head of the family was to go straight to Xingqing Mansion, but I didn't expect it to be home. But this one, are we going back?.
Yang Yong couldn't believe it when he saw tens of thousands of soldiers, and explained in a calm tone: "Ben General has just received a battle report, and our benefactor Liu Sheng has led the army to recapture the Nameless Mountain Range. At this point, the back road is clear, and we can go home."
There was still a silence, this news is too important. For a while, people didn't have time to react, and it became a little sluggish. At this time, a soldier came back to his senses, and then cheers rang out. A trace of the joy of dying in a desperate place spread among tens of thousands of people.
Yang Yong nodded slightly when he saw this scene, and ordered to his own soldiers: "Beat the drum ......."
"Knock knock knock ......". The sound of war drums sounded again, and one after another the cavalry mounted their horses, and some soldiers who had lost their horses saw this scene and thought of their beloved horses, and could not help but cry loudly. The sorrow spread again, and tens of thousands of soldiers remembered all kinds of things that had happened from the time they set out to this time. The iron-blooded man couldn't help but have tears in his eyes.
At this time, there was no need for the general's orders, some cavalrymen couldn't help but dismount, pulled up their comrades who had lost their horses, and hugged them on their horses. Seeing such a situation, Yang Yong's heart was like a knife, and he wept silently. This is all their own fault that caused this situation. If he hadn't been too careless, he would have almost wiped out his Yang family. Not dying now is not enough to forgive sins. After taking them back, I should personally apologize.
The mourning gradually stopped, and one by one, the soldiers stepped on their horses and lined up again. There were cavalrymen with men who walked into the middle of the procession just in case.
After the soldiers were all ready, Yang Ying walked over: "General, do we set off immediately and go to the Nameless Mountain Range?"
"General's Order: From now on, the army will send the nameless mountains". Yang Yong nodded and ordered at Yang Ying. A cavalryman, under the cover of night, evacuated in an orderly manner. When the last cavalry left, the bones of the horses were exposed in the night sky.
Yang Yong galloped with tens of thousands of cavalry in the starry night, and Yang Fan of the jade city was looking forward to it day after day on the city wall, and was overjoyed to see an army under the banner of Yang. After confirming that it was correct, he hurriedly opened the city gate and walked down to greet him, and at this time his hanging heart finally landed.
Yang Ying was overjoyed when she saw Yang Fan coming from the city, and hurriedly dismounted and gave him a bear hug. The joy of rebirth after the catastrophe turned into two tears: "Brother Fan, I am still alive."
"Cousin, we not only live, but also live with good food and drink. Only in this way can Li Hao sleep unsteadily day and night in Xingqing Mansion." When Yang Fan heard what Yang Ying said, his expression was moved. The two parted and smiled at each other.
Yang Yong heard the conversation between the two and smiled with relief: "Brother Fan, it's good to be alive to see you here, I die without regrets."
"Cousin Yang Yong...... The head of the family, what kind of dead word to say at this time is really unlucky." Yang Ying couldn't help but call Yang Yong his cousin. Only then did he remember the difference between up and down, and quickly changed his words.
When Yang Yong heard Yang Fan's salutation, he smiled bitterly and diverted the topic: "Thanks to Brother Fan here, otherwise I would only be afraid of ......."
"Why would the head of the family say such a thing, we are a family. is saying that this battle was done by the general, if it weren't for the head of the family who was in a desperate situation. The general will not come to the northwest, and there will be no such victory." Yang Fan heard Yang Yong's tone a little depressed, and hurriedly comforted him.
Yang Ying looked at Yang Fan suspiciously, revealing a puzzled gaze: "General?".
"You don't know what it was like at that time, but as a soldier, you can participate in such a war, and you really have no regrets. Because we were fighting too happily, the soldiers privately decided to change the title of Engong. Even after this battle, we still recognize him as a general." Yang Fan remembered the scene that night, and a sense of pride arose.
Yang Yong saw Yang Fan's proud expression, and only then did he realize that he didn't see Liu Sheng and Jia Fu: "What about Liu Sheng and Jia Fu?"
"You don't know, the head of the family, when we captured Yuguan and Yucheng. Because the 60,000 soldiers and horses of the Western Xia were defeated too quickly, countless materials were left behind. The general ordered me to write a letter asking my family what to do. The family replied that we would take two-thirds, and the other third would be left for the general's payment. At first, the general resigned, but Jia Fucai was obsessed with it, and muttered in his ear every day, but today he dragged the general to Yuguan to count the materials." As Yang Fan spoke, he suddenly laughed when he thought of Jia Fu, who was obsessed with money. The supply of 60,000 troops, even if it is only one-third, is an unimaginable wealth for Jia Fu. As a qualified businessman, if you don't take it when you see him, it is better to kill him.
Yang Yong remembered Jia Fu's appearance at this time, and suddenly laughed: "If Shang Jia doesn't love money, wouldn't it be too much of a failure." Brother Fan, you send someone to report to them, and say that I, Yang Yong, have returned."
"I'll do it now, head of the house." Yang Fan nodded and gave orders to the guards beside him, and the guards took the orders and rushed into the city.
Yang Yong saw the guards walking away and turned his head to look at the army he led. Seeing that they were sleepy and lacking horses, he directly ordered them to enter the city and settle down. Then Yang Ying and Yang Fan, with endless troops, walked into the city.
