One hundred and seventy-eight Yue Tuo will not fight for the emperor

If the Jin soldiers come to attack, I will fight to the death, but if I want to fight for the Song court, I don't seem to think it is necessary.

What am I fighting to the death with Jin Bing for? For the people and family behind me, my soldiers and I come from the people, our family is the people, in order to protect the family behind us, we will have unlimited motivation and combat effectiveness, even if the golden soldier is strong, we will not lose the courage to fight him, because we know that if we retreat, our relatives will be slaughtered.

However, if you want me to stand in front of the Song Court and fight for those literati who only know the wind and snow and the national affairs, as well as the noble and incomprehensible Daojun Emperor Zhao Ji, what do you think?

Yue turned his eyes and looked at the indignant Zhang Shuye, and his heart gradually cooled down, I will definitely fight, this is because I am a Han Chinese, I am a pacification envoy on Jiangnan South Road, I have the responsibility of defending the land and resisting the war, and I have the responsibility of protecting the people, and my own relatives are also here, I have to fight, and I have to fight to the death, but you let me leave here, lead the army north, and fight to protect the emperor, Zhang Lao, do you think I will do this?

How did I get my office today? How did I get to be where I am today? I exchanged my calligraphy and paintings for the emperor's attention, I exchanged my military exploits and my examination results for official positions, I exchanged my political achievements for rewards, everything I got was because of my efforts, but what else did I get? Not to mention what kind of place is Jiqian Erzhou, I gambled my life to come here, provide taxes for the Song Court, kill countless bandits here, tens of thousands of living beings, I got those rewards, are these what I deserve?

Did I get something for no reason? What is special about me compared to senior officials? Even if it's special, it's because the two states of Jiqian are originally special, if I don't have these special powers, there will be no Jiqian two states today, they want to use me to pacify the two states of Jiqian, I want to use their psychological development strength, each takes what he needs, is there anything wrong?

If that's not right, I don't know what's right.

Everything I have gotten is what I have exchanged for my life, the lives of the people and soldiers, compared to my life, how insignificant is the reward that Emperor Huizong gave me alone? How stingy? Did he appease Jiangnan South Road? I am a pacifier, so I use all the money he gives me to appease the people, and I have enough money to fill my own pockets?

I have land, which is my family's private property, what does it have to do with the imperial court? My life today is my own hard work, I and the Zhao Song royal family, only trade, no feelings, I and them, just pure interests, why should I give up my life to save them? My job, the job they want me to do, am I not good enough? Am I doing badly? Did I trigger a civil uprising?

I have fulfilled my duties as the pacification envoy of Jiangnan South Road and the governor of Jizhou, what else do you want from me?

Zhang Lao, I am not as great as you, I am not as selfless as you, I am not as determined as you to abandon my family life, follow the emperor to the north to die, you are a hero, and I am just an ordinary person, an ordinary person who wants to protect himself and his relatives and the names of all the people under his jurisdiction in the troubled times, I am not a hero, and I will not be a hero, the heroes are all dead, and those who survive are either bears or ordinary people, I don't do bears, but I can only be an ordinary person.

An ordinary official who protects the territory and the people.

The 30,000 Yue family army will not fight for the emperor, will not fight for the emperor's family, they are the children of the people, they will only fight for the people, you let them fight for the emperor who forcibly levied Huashigang from them and ruined their family, can they fight with reason and confidence? The people are simple, but they are also bright-eyed, and they have a sound memory, how the emperor treats them, they don't know!

Faint kings, traitors, and demons dancing wildly, do you let them fight for these devils, throw their heads and spill their blood, and then let these unharmed devils continue to maim them?!

I'm sorry, I can't do it, the army under my command can't do it, my people can't do it, everyone can't do it, the Great Song Dynasty is sorry for the people of the world, the emperor is sorry for the Great Song Dynasty, we don't blame the Great Song Dynasty, the Great Song Dynasty is a country, not a person, the country is controlled by people, the country will not make mistakes, it is people who make mistakes, so we will never let go of the emperor, we will never let go of the demons, we are normal people, we have a good memory, what they have done to us, we all remember!

Do you think Emperor Huizong and Emperor Qinzong are pitiful? Do you think the Zhao Song royal family is pitiful? Do you think those royal ladies who were bullied by the Jurchens are pitiful? Feeling ashamed? Feeling infuriated? Think they're innocent? Jingkang's shame?

Why is there an old saying that the poor must be hateful?

Everything that everyone suffers is not for no reason, there is a cause and effect, the cycle of cause and effect, retribution is unpleasant, this is the way of heaven, this is the truth, what the Zhao and Song royal families did to the world, what they did to their people, what they did to their army, what they did to themselves, from these things, you can infer why their final ending is so miserable, the Northern Song Dynasty royal family was collectively treated as pigs and dogs, enslaved by the Jurchens, the Southern Song Dynasty royal family was still heroic, jumped into the sea and committed suicide, the difference between Zhao Guangyi and Zhao Kuangyin lies in this.

A lifetime of playing with intrigue and conspiracy, this is his retribution, and a lifetime of endless battles, that is his reward.

God is watching, he is watching! He remembers it clearly!

This is Jingkang's retribution!!!

Zhang Lao, Uncle Zhang, can't you see clearly? Zhang Ying's blood, Tan Zhen's blood, and the blood of the soldiers of the Northern Expeditionary Army, haven't you seen it clearly?! In this world, it was snatched by Zhao Kuangyin, and it was quite above board, but it was stolen by Zhao Guangyi later, and the royal family of the Northern Song Dynasty are all descendants of Zhao Guangyi! He stole it by vile means, and he will die in disgrace!

Born of a great lie, you will die of endless shame! This is retribution! It's retribution! I will not fight for them, absolutely not, the blood of me and my soldiers will not be spilled in meaningless places, and our lives will not be abandoned for the sake of the traitorous ministers! Our struggle will not be waged in front of the traitorous ministers! No way!

Elder Zhang, can you understand? Will you understand? Why, why do we have to fight for the emperor? You must know, you have to understand that everything we get is not a gift from the emperor, it is what we have exchanged for our own lives, everything that belongs to us, not the emperor's, without us taking our lives to fight, without us fighting for the future, we will not get these, the emperor will not give, absolutely will not give!

He needs us to govern the country for them, we need him to provide us with rights and wealth, that's all, this is a mutually beneficial employment relationship, this is an alliance of interests that uses each other, and there is nothing worth fighting for them, if it is for the sake of interests, then it should be those who hold the greater interests to fight, I am a governor, you are a general judgment, how much interest? If the prime minister doesn't struggle, and the governor doesn't struggle, what do we struggle? Struggle for what?

Besides, as the biggest owner of interests, the emperor is the one who should fight the most, but he doesn't go, he only thinks about how to maintain his position and power, and is careless about everything else, in this case, what else do we need to fight for him?

That night, Yue Chuan didn't say anything, just drank, just kept drinking, but every time he drank a glass of wine, these words would come out involuntarily, and every time he drank a glass of wine, these thoughts of rebellion would come out, but he didn't say a word, Uncle Zhang's impassioned statement, but Yue Tuo and the people under his command were just cold opposites, they knew it in their hearts, better than anyone else.

Yue Chuan will definitely not fight for the Song Court, let alone for the emperor, they are not worthy.

People's hearts are already in chaos, everything is irreparable, Uncle Zhang's impassionedness is useless, here, within the scope of Jiangnan South Road, there is no warrant from Yue Tuo, no one can cross Yue Tuo to mobilize a soldier, Emperor Huizong himself came, and it was the same.
