CHAPTER XLV

In June, the scenery of Laohuwei Mountain is beautiful, with shady trees, all kinds of insects and birds, and occasionally a breeze blows away the heat overhead, which makes people feel refreshed......

Yang Bo, accompanied by a group of people, first worshiped Mao Wenlong's clothed mound, and a huge stone tablet in front of him was engraved with Mao Wenlong's oath: "Referring to the restoration of the whole Liao, the look buds are pregnant here, and I serve the country with a naked heart, and loyalty and righteousness are based on this."

Most of the places behind the stele are used to record Mao Wenlong's life and achievements in detail, as well as the process of unjustly dying, and there is also a stone statue nearly two meters high erected on the mound of clothes, the stone statue is based on the portrait of Mao Wenlong collected on weekdays, and more than 30 craftsmen are invited to carve it, the stone statue is draped all over the body, holding the hilt of the sword with one hand, looking at the direction of the Dongjiang River, and there is a faint look of reluctance between the eyebrows......

Since the completion of the mound of clothes, every day from the Dongjiang islands to come to worship the people in an endless stream, even far away in North Korea there are also people to come, there are many and Yang Bo old grudge Phi Island generals after the worship, will also go to the Lushun General's Mansion to ask to see Yang Bo, Emperor Chongzhen was shocked to hear that Yuan Chonghuan was good at killing Mao Shuai after pinching his nose silently, this has already buried the fuse of the Dongjiang centrifugation, and later after the Yuan thief ambushed, the imperial court for Mao Wenlong's grievances Zhaoxue's suggestion is still vague, unwilling to lose the dignity of the court, Yang Bo's move is tantamount to sending charcoal in the snow, In addition, Lushun showed strong combat effectiveness, and many forces that were still watching and swaying began to consciously or unconsciously move closer to Lushun.

After Yang Bo worshiped Mao Shuai, he worshiped Huanglong, Shang Keyi, Zhang Dalu, Xiang Zuolin and others in turn, and then went to another cemetery. I paid tribute to the soldiers of the original Jimo Battalion who died in the battle for Lushun, most of these soldiers were soldiers of the recruit company of the Sin Barracks, and I thought that the Sin Barracks was no longer there. Yang Bo felt an indescribable grief and guilt in his heart, especially when he came to Wang Xiaoliu's tomb and saw that the crossbow arrow he had sworn back then was still there, and his oath had not been fulfilled for a long time......

Yang Bo stroked Wang Xiaoliu's tombstone for a long time, only to find that the incense burner in front of the tomb was still burning incense and paper money, and it was obvious that someone had come to worship him before.

Yang Bo's heart moved, and he asked left and right: "Who has been here?" ”

A few guards asked the people who sprinkled and swept on weekdays and reported back. According to the description, there is no doubt that it should be Wang Xiaoqi.

Yang Bo patted the stele lightly and said softly: "Little Liu, my brother sees that you are here." You haven't been here for so long, you can't blame your brother, right? ”

A gust of mountain wind blew, as if mixed with Wang Xiaoliu's hearty laughter: "My lord, where will my lord take me to kill thieves and make meritorious contributions this time?" ”

Yang Bo stood in front of the tomb for a long time. recalled Wang Xiaoliu's voice and smile. The whole person seems to be stupid......

In the two houses at the foot of the mountain, Yang Bo saw the long-awaited monk Tan Yinghua Kexi, the new governor of Denglai Yang Wenyue is about to take office, the governor of Denglai is in charge of the money and food equipment of the islands of the Dongjiang River, the new officials have arrived, they can not help but come to Dengzhou to greet them.

"Yuanji, I am willing to lose the bet, what else do you have to say now? Back to Phi Island, I immediately sent someone to send the blue-maned horse to my old Tan! Tan Yinghua suddenly pointed at Shang Kexi and said

"What's wrong?" Yang Bo sat down. asked, Shang Kexi smiled and shook his head.

I Lao Tan said. Knowing leisure has always been affectionate and righteous, today to worship Huang Dashuai, there will be a few drops of tears sent from afar, this Yuan Ji doesn't believe it, how about now? Tan Yinghua said triumphantly.

Yang Bo was stunned for a moment, then pointed at Shang Kexi and scolded with a smile: "This baby mount has lost, right?" Lose to death! Also, Yuanji, I haven't settled the account for you about the impeachment of me behind your back, and I will end this matter today, how do you say I should compensate for it? ”

Shang Kexi smiled slightly, but changed the topic: "Today, Yuanji went to visit his wife, and Zhixian took good care of the handsome's widow, and often came to the door to ask for warmth, but Yuanji spent the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain." ”

Tan Yinghua saw that the two of them were a little embarrassed, so he diverted the topic and said: "Leisure, I received a report on Phi Dao that the Tatar slaves will enter the southern part of the country in two batches, and the first batch has already set off on May 20......"

Yang Bo nodded without surprise and said: "I have also received the news, most of the people who set off first are the Han Banner Army, Shi Yanzhu, Ma Guangyuan, Wang Shiyuan, and Kong Youde Geng Zhongming, etc., and the Eight Banners are expected to be dispatched in mid-June."

Shang Kexi said: "Zhixian is really well-informed, I waited for the Dongjiang righteous people who were supported by the marshal back then, and mixed into the Eight Banners to deliver the news to know about it, and I came to the door today, just to hear what Zhixian's plan is?" ”

Yang Bo thought for a while and said: "According to my inference, the soldiers and horses of the Eight Banners will set off one after another no later than mid-June, and it will take a month to approach the line of the Great Wall, so it will be less than the end of September to return to Liaodong, so we still have a lot of time to plan, you just have to train the soldiers and horses with peace of mind, with the opportunity to attack, naturally your contribution is indispensable, and there is no need to be anxious now." ”

Shang Kexi smiled: "Knowing that I have been vigorously assisting with firearms, grain and grass, armor, etc., and that there are Lushun veterans to help train, the morale of the people below is getting stronger and stronger, and they are eager to cut off a few more Tartar slaves' heads for meritorious service."

Tan Yinghua also said: "Yes, how have we brought such majestic soldiers and horses before?" You have to look at it, the strong army under Grandpa Qi back then was about like this, right? My old Tan watched them practice in the school field every day, and when he came back at night, he slept with a smile. ”

Shang Kexi said: "The Dongjiang River comes and goes, that is, the handsome and Zhixian of the year are bent on killing Tartar slaves, and the others are just doing faΓ§ade work." ”

Yang Bo heard something hidden in Shang Kexi's words, so he said vaguely: "The islands of the Dongjiang River and the Tatar slaves have a common enmity, but after the death of the handsome, the dragons have no leader, let's not talk about this, by the way, what has the North Korean side done recently?" ”

Tan Yinghua and Shang Kexi glanced at each other, they didn't know what Yang Bo meant by asking, Shang Kexi said: "North Korea? Since Liwei, although the North Korean Li Liang cried to the imperial court, but he was much more polite to us, the sailors who monitored Tieshan were withdrawn, and they also sent envoys from time to time on weekdays, but we wanted to extort some rice and grain, but the North Korean side still tried its best to shirk it. ”

Yang Bo shook his head when he heard this, and said: "This is not the way to go on after all, the North Korean problem is time to be solved!" ”

Shang Kexi and Tan Yinghua were slightly surprised, and they were waiting for Yang Bo's next words.

"Tatarun Nanluo. Naturally, we have to wait for the opportunity to move, this North Korea has been swinging between the two countries, as a small country. It is wise and helpless to adopt the position of mutual disagreement and mud, but as far as we are concerned, we cannot tolerate the position adopted by the DPRK, or it will become a back that we can rely on with peace of mind, even if it completely falls to the back of Jin, we will force them to express their position......"

"What should I do? Why don't you just send troops? When I think of that Li Liang, my belly is on fire, this kraft candy has never been able to count in a word! Tan Yinghua said that Li Liang hated it so much. Obviously, he has dealt with the DPRK a lot, and he has also learned the rogue style of the DPRK.

Shang Kexi's heart moved, and after thinking about it, he still persuaded: "Be idle." North Korea is the best at crying to the imperial court, and when the marshal was a little arrogant to it, the imperial court repeatedly issued orders to reprimand him, saying that the extortion was excessive. Coercion of the subject state. In fact, the marshal is deeply disgusted by the sour rot of the imperial court and His Majesty, and the DPRK is not to blame. ”

Yang Bo smiled and said: "North Korea's reaction is also reasonable, this time is different from the past, that Li Liang thought that we would eat that set of him, but for the sake of the dignity of the court, we still have to discuss a foolproof strategy."

Tan Yinghua said angrily: "If you want to see it, it is better to send troops to destroy the Li Dynasty, just rely on the combat effectiveness of the Korean soldiers." It's not like I'm bragging......"

Tan Yinghua was interrupted by Shang Kexi before he finished speaking: "It's easy to destroy North Korea, the question is how do we explain to the imperial court?" ”

However, to Shang Kexi's surprise. Yang Bo said: "The imperial court is too busy to take care of itself, how can it have time to care about the life and death of North Korea, let's kill Shen Shikui, the imperial court still has to pinch its nose and admit it?" The problem is not here, our strength is not enough, it is easy to destroy North Korea, but we can't digest the interests of North Korea, but we are making a wedding dress for Houjin, we still have to bear the wrath of the imperial court, unless, unless ......"

The necks of both of them were stretched, but Yang Bo had no follow-up, and Shang Kexi said dissatisfiedly: "Zhixian, if you have anything to say, why bother teasing me?" ”

Yang Bo got up and paced a few laps before saying: "It's not to tease you, but I still have a few difficulties that I can't solve, the reason why the Li Dynasty dares to swing between the Later Jin and the Ming State is nothing more than that North Korea is a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty, and the Later Jin has something to ask for it, so what I mean is that I want North Korea to completely surrender, and I can only do the trick of drawing salaries from the bottom of the kettle, directly destroy the Li Dynasty, and support a Zhang Dynasty in North Korea, and the Ma Dynasty comes out, but the difficulty in doing so is that this person who is supported must have prestige in North Korea and be able to convince the public, and North Korea's xenophobia is very strong, This is the first one, the second is that this supported DPRK will still be dead set on us, unconditionally obedient, and able to endure betraying the interests of the DPRK as a marionette, and the third is that we don't have many opportunities, if we engage in a few more canonized tricks to arouse the disgust of the North Korean people, I am afraid that the DPRK will really completely fall back to Jin."

Shang Kexi thought for a while, and suddenly laughed and said, "Zhixian, it turns out that you don't know the history of North Korea?" ”

Yang Bo nodded stunned: "What's wrong?" ”

Shang Kexi didn't answer, but said: "Hearing the idle words, the mouth suddenly opened, but now there is a suitable candidate in North Korea, Gwanghaejun!" ”

Yang Bo was overjoyed and said, "Let's hear it?" ”

Shang Kexi smiled and took a sip of tea, and then said leisurely: "Speaking of Gwanghaejun, we have to start from the twentieth year of Wanli, when there was a rebellion in Korea, Linhaejun Li Jue was captured, and Xuanzu, that is, Gwanghaejun's father, rushed to Pyongyang, and the seventeen-year-old Gwanghaejun Li Hui took state affairs......"

Yang Bo nodded: "Understood, isn't it a copy of the story of the Anshi Rebellion and Xuanzong being forced to pass on the throne to Suzong?" ”

Shang Kexi laughed and said: "I know how to draw inferences, but this time I guessed wrong"

β€œβ€¦β€¦ After pacifying the rebellion, Xuanzu and Wanli 23 years canonized Guanghai Jun as the son, and on the state, asking for Wanli's permission, only sigh that this Guanghai Jun is a blessing, Ming replied that the inheritance of the unification of the righteousness, the elder and the young are divided, it is not appropriate to make mistakes, so it is not allowed, Guanghai Jun has a secret complaint about the Ming Dynasty. Waiting for the thirty-third year, the DPRK once again asked for Yi Chu, but he didn't expect Gao to encounter the Ming State again this time and also fought for the matter of the Li Chu, but he was not allowed, and Guanghai Jun could not wait for the canonization of the Ming State for a long time, which gave the Yongchang Maharaja an excuse to make trouble."

Yang Bo sighed and said: "My Ming Dynasty has never allowed to abandon his heirs and establish a concubine, so it's no wonder that this Guanghai Monarch can't wait for the canonization."

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Yongchang Dajun is the eldest son of Seonjo, and Queen Inmu is the backer, so Korea is divided into two factions, and there is endless infighting, but because Gwanghaejun made great contributions during the Japanese rebellion, his prestige in North Korea is in full swing, and he is the son of Seonjo canonized. There were more supporters, so they gradually gained the upper hand, and Wanli was thirty-six years old. Emperor Xuanzu returned to heaven, Guanghai Jun succeeded in turmoil, and at the same time went to the country, hoping to be recognized by the Ming State, Emperor Wanli was disgusted, but because of the rise of Tar slaves, for the stability of Liaodong. Da Ming finally canonized Guanghaijun! ”

Before Shang Kexi finished speaking, Yang Bo clapped his hands and said, "Wonderful." Since Guanghaijun has been canonized by Emperor Wanli, it is justified! ”

Shang Kexi nodded with a smile: "Not bad." If you don't get my Ming canonization, even if you carry him out, it's useless. ”

Tan Yinghua said impatiently: "Zhixian, don't keep interrupting, I can listen attentively?" ”

Yang Bo replied solemnly: "What we discuss is the most important thing. That's a big deal about the monarchy."

Tan Yinghua said impatiently: "What kind of law are you talking about after listening to it?" ”

Yang Bo laughed when he heard this. He made a gesture of invitation to Shang Kexi.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ This Guanghai Jun is not good at stubble, according to the history books of the Li Dynasty, the chaos is very serious, the queen mother is abolished, and the brother is slaughtered and killed, but it is so, the two people who pose the greatest threat, the eldest son of Xuanzu Linhaijun. His son-in-law, Lord Yongchang, died a few years after Gwanghae-kun ascended the throne, but Gwanghae-kun was left with a serious trouble. That is the queen of Renmu imprisoned in the deep palace, for the future defeat left by the foreshadowing, Guanghaijun internal troubles, external worries and comes, after Jintun soldiers Niu Mao Village, Wanshaling, Phoenix and other places, to Kuandian, Zhenjiang eyeing the Kuandian, Zhenjiang and North Korea's Changcheng and Yizhou Forts across the water, the situation is critical, but the Ming State received a report from Liao Zhentang, accusing Guanghaijun of making peace with Houjin, so he issued an order to reprimand, Guanghaijun had no choice but to send troops to assist the Ming State to attack Houjin, the result was a touch of collapse, in the internal and external troubles, the palace coup occurred, In March of the third year of the Apocalypse, Li Gui, Li Shi, Jin Zidian and others of the Westerner Party, with the assistance of Queen Renmu and the newly rising Nanren Party forces, gathered troops under the command of Ayayangjun to enter Qingyun Palace and launch a palace coup. Li Erzhan and Zheng Renhong of the Great Northern Sect were given death, and the twenty-eight-year-old Ayayang Jun Li Liang ascended the throne. The deposed Gwanghae-kun was brought to Queen Inmu to be reprimanded, then burned with lime and exiled to Jo-tong on Ganghwa Island. ”

Shang Kexi took a sip of water and said with a smile: "How is this person?" ”

Yang Bo frowned and said, "It's not good, although the identity of Guanghaijun is enough, but this person is brave and strategic, and it is even more rare that there are a large number of people who support him, if he gains power and has a large number of old subordinates to assist, why would he buy our account?" ”

Shang Kexi was stunned for a moment, but thinking that Guanghaijun acted viciously, and his wit was also the best choice, how easy was it to control such a person?

However, Yang Bo spoke up again: "It's good news that Guanghaijun is blind, at least it's easier to control, if it's deaf, then it's even better......"

Shang Ke said happily: "Zhixian, do you still mean to belong to this person?" ”

Yang Bo asked rhetorically, "How old is this Guanghaijun?" ”

Shang Kexi lowered his head and calculated: "About sixty-four or five"

"Then it seems that Guanghaijun doesn't have a few years to live, so we have to seize the opportunity."

Yang Bo pondered for a moment: "Guanghaijun must be held in our hands, even his descendants"

Shang Kexi got up a little excitedly and said: "Leisure, we can send troops to destroy Li Liang in the name of the old department of Gwanghaejun, now there is no need to worry about the court's sideways, anyway, it is the power within North Korea, and the bigwigs in the DPRK and China are too lazy to care about this kind of."

Yang Bo shook his head: "Wrong, Yuan Ji, we will never support Guanghaijun to ascend to the throne, people like Guanghaijun are not easy to control, and it will be self-defeating if they are not careful, Guanghaijun is just a bargaining chip for us to force Li Ju to submit, and it is the most threatening to Li Dynasty if he does not provoke, and his value is that"

Shang Kexi was surprised: "How will Li Lian react?" ”

"Cry to the court" Yang Bo smiled disdainfully, "As long as we have the bargaining chip of Guanghaijun, plus the strong soldiers of Phi Dao, as long as we reveal a little bit of rumors, it is enough for Li Liang, who came to power by a palace coup, to cry to the court?" Let's give him a death and don't admit it, can he come to bite me from Dao Phi Dao? ”

Shang Kexi pondered for a moment and said: "In my opinion, it is the best policy to overthrow the Li Dynasty in the name of Guanghaijun's old department. ”

Yang Bo patiently explained: "It's not impossible for Gwanghaejun to take the throne, but first, there are too many variables, no matter what we do, North Korea is his country after all, and we can't control the overall situation, second, the turmoil in North Korea has no benefit to us at this stage, we are planning hard, but in the end, it is North Korea that has become full of holes because of the civil war, what good do we have?" So I chose to retreat and use relatively mild means to force Li Chao to submit, if, if Li Ju is really stubborn, then I hope that one or two of Guanghaijun's sons will be more stupid, whether they are really stupid or fake, at least he can live longer than his brothers! ”

After Yang Bo finished speaking viciously, he added: "So, what we want to discuss now is, where the hell is this Ganghwa Island, where the hell is this imprisoned Guanghaijun clan?" ”

………………

On the same day, the high-spirited Huang Taiji drove to the school field outside Shengjing City, the flags on the school field danced, the drums and trumpets sounded in unison, the long horns sent out a low sound towards the sky, and the elite of the eight flags were all counted, waiting for the review of the Huang Taiji......

Seeing the strict military formation, the corners of Huang Taiji's mouth were raised, with a kind smile on his face, behind him, a large group of Baylor and various Shangshu, in order to boost the courage of the Eight Banners, in order to deter the Han people of all walks of life, Huang Taiji chose to hold this huge school review ceremony a few days before the southern sweep.

With the waving of the flags on the field, the eight flags were lined up in various formations in the school field, and in the elite of the eight banners, there was a team with white flags and soapy edges that was more eye-catching, their all covered armor, wrapped in heavy armor, and the steel torrent composed of them was better than the eight banners in terms of momentum, and the Baylors were a little unhappy when they saw this scene, but Huang Taiji didn't think it was too much, and pointed to the infantry with a smile and said to everyone: "How?" The armor captured by the sin camp is worn on the body of our Han military flag, and it is just as imposing."

"Yang Bo!"

The name immediately came to the minds of the Baylors...... (To be continued......)
