Chapter 573: Defender of Truth
In an ingenious way, Yang Yi pocketed an intact Nanjing Dao, and the Great Song Dynasty did not have to spend money to carry out post-war reconstruction, and even occupied the name of righteousness, which not only won the inside, but also saved face.!
Such a Nanjing Dao only needs to send officials over to collect taxes. This kind of good thing that produces without input is no different from falling out of pie.
Yang Yi's recital was delivered to the capital, Liu Qingjing did not dare to slack off, not only immediately withdrew the forbidden army outside the Yang family, but also personally took the treasures of the palace to drive the Yang family, and couldn't help but say that the Yang family was given a second-grade order; In Liu Qingjing's opinion, isn't that wronged family filial, so that he can always dissipate his anger, of course, if she knew that Yang Yi was even ready with leather whips and candles, she probably wouldn't think so.
This big upheaval came out, and the people all over the city knew about it, and the tabloids in Tokyo immediately published the news that Yang University Shi Miao took Yanyun; Yang Yi's process of seeking Yan Yun this time was quite surprising, and after these tabloids rendered in every way, Yang Yi in addition to the name of the champion Hou Zaishi, he also had the reputation of Zhuge rebirth.
Those "defenders of truth" are even more incredible, as if Yanyun was taken back by them, how to say, in the most difficult time for Scholar Yang, they stood on the side of Scholar Yang and defended the truth, and they had reason to enjoy the joy of this victory; They booed all the way behind the retreating forbidden army, this time instead of throwing stink bombs, throwing firecrackers, crackling, and gunsmoke, making those retreating forbidden troops like deserters on the battlefield.
Since the founding of the Great Song Dynasty, he has never forgotten to take back the land of Yanyun, for which he has suffered too much and suffered too many crimes, Song Taizong defeated the Gaoliang River, the backbone of the Great Song Dynasty was almost broken, Song Taizong was hit by an arrow, fled back alone, and finally died due to an arrow wound.
The word Yan Yun never faded in Song Jin's mind, and it was always like a sharp sword hanging above his head, crushing Da Song to the point of being breathless; In the past, the Great Song Dynasty raised so many soldiers, and spent a huge amount of military expenditure of sixty or seventy million yuan every year, accounting for six or seven percent of the annual income, and a big reason was Yan Yun.
The land of Yanyun is in the hands of the Liao State, the Great Song Dynasty has no danger to defend, and the north of Tokyo is a horse Pingchuan, as long as the Liao army breaks through the three passes, it can drink the Yellow River, which is one of the reasons why the Great Song Dynasty had to raise a large number of troops, which caused a heavy burden to the people.
In addition, Yan Yun also created a kind of shackles on the gods of the Great Song Dynasty, making the folk customs of the Great Song Dynasty lack the atmosphere of the Han and Tang Dynasties; Try to look at the poems of the Tang Dynasty, how atmospheric and heroic, and then look at the lyrics of the Northern Song Dynasty, except for Su Dongpo, the young musician, most of the poems of the Northern Song Dynasty are low-chanted and shallow, and the works of boudoir resentment, on the whole, you can't find the heroic and expansive style of the poetry of the Tang Dynasty at all.
When the heroic agitation and the spirit of looking down on the eight wildernesses are gone, when the low chanting and shallow singing, the sad autumn has become the main theme, which cannot but be said to be the sorrow of a nation.
It's been more than a hundred years, and Yan Yun, who has been thinking about it for more than a hundred years, and Yan Yun, who has been overwhelmed by the Great Song Dynasty, has finally been taken back, this time, Yang Yi seems to have moved the sharp sword hanging above the head of the Great Song Dynasty, and also broke the shackles that entered their hearts.
Up to the prime minister of the court, down to the small people in the market, all play the crown to celebrate, run to tell each other, the city of Tokyo is more lively than the New Year, the firecrackers are constantly ringing, they buy flowers and wine, celebrate the carnival, and the tavern of the Qinglou can be seen everywhere drunk and hazy, Judas laughing and singing.
As for those who once suspected Yang Yi of treason, it is best not to go out now, otherwise your backbone will be broken, so hide at home and cover a few pits, and wait for the excitement of those "truth defenders" to fade, and then go out quietly through the back door to try......
The wind direction of the court has also changed greatly, and many wall-riding factions have joined the siege of Yang Yi because of Liu Qingjing's siege of Yang's mansion, but now with the great change in the direction of the wind, they also immediately turned their guns; And in order to make up for their previous mistakes, they became the main force besieging Wang Xian and others, how ruthless they were, as if it was not Yang Yi who was wronged before, but them.
Wang Meng, the palace attendant, impeached Wang Xianli for ten major crimes, such as communicating with foreign countries, framing Zhongliang, and forming a party to fight against dissent; Jixian College Li Zhutong impeached Yang Wei for seven major crimes, including embezzlement and bribery, jealousy of the virtuous, disturbance of the Holy Hearing, and malicious intentions.
All of these are not the same.
The imperial envoy Zhongcheng, the Ministry of Rites, and the Dali Siqing can now be described as rats crossing the street, shouting and beating in the court, and betraying relatives in the court.
Even the imperial envoy Pang Zhongjin defected, claiming that he was deceived by Wang Xian......... Damn, who will believe him now, the guys who don't want this kind of basic section cao o, all of them scoff, you don't want to run away.
Liu Qingjing herself was also worried that Yang Yi would blame her, and she was also extremely angry with Wang Xian, the initiators, and she went to Annan one by one, and it was useless for Fan Chunren to intercede, so she was afraid that Yang Yi would not be satisfied.
Now that the war is tight, Zhang Dian focuses on the overall situation, and feels that it is not enough to appease the army, so he did not say anything about Empress Dowager Liu's approach.
It is said that Wang Xian's carriage came out of the house, and when he walked to the New Song Gate, the car was full of stink bombs, causing serious loads, and the axle was almost broken!
It wasn't until the officials of Kaifeng came to maintain order that Wang Xian would not overturn due to loading.
For Zhang Dian and others, what matters now is how to appease Yang Yi, Yang Yi's resignation has been handed over, this matter is not easy to do, resignation must not let him resign, but this alone is not enough; Yang Yi's influence in the military does not need to be repeated, the impact of this matter is extremely bad, and now it is not a question of appeasing Yang Yi, but how to appease the heart of the Great Song Army; If it is not handled well, it will definitely chill the soldiers in front, and Bi Jing does not want to bear the hidden arrows from the rear when he is bleeding desperately in front.
This problem is difficult for Liu Qingjing and a thousand ministers, and it is not good to be crowned king, and the words of the king are similar to directly agreeing to Yang Yi's resignation, because according to the general practice of the Great Song Dynasty, after being crowned king, he can no longer participate in military politics.
In the end, the imperial envoy Luo Cheng made a suggestion and gave Yang Yi the honor of not entering the court, going to the palace with a sword, and praising him.
According to the ancient rites, when the minister sees the king's trend, he walks quickly. If you don't want to go to the court, you don't need to go fast.
In ancient times, when entering the ground and sitting, you must take off your shoes when entering the room, nobles and ministers wear swords, and you are not allowed to wear swords in the upper hall of the Qin system. The sword goes to the temple, that is, wears shoes and swords and goes straight to the temple.
When the courtiers worship the king, they must be called by the courtiers. If you don't praise your name, you don't have to call your name when you see you.
This is a special honor, and usually only the kind of princes and ministers of high moral standing have the opportunity to enjoy this honor.
Now it seems that this is the only way to appease the morale of the troops in front.
After Yang Yi followed this will in Gubeikou, he was quite satisfied, there was no shortage of money at home, and it didn't matter if he rewarded him or not, but the emperor was his son, is it reasonable to let Lao Tzu worship his son? Well, with this honor, we can finally be comfortable in the future.
Although the imperial court returned his command, but the news was tightly sealed by Yang Yi, except for Li Yizhong, Tang Geng and other henchmen, tens of thousands of soldiers were not allowed to know, and now the army is complaining because Yang Yi resigned from the post of deputy head of the Yanyun Road march, and the army is disheartened.
Yang Yi ignored it and let the soldiers scold his mother in the camp every day. There is no intention of attacking Liaodong, and every time he dies, he just has fun with the eldest princess of Yueguo, and tosses a Yelutri to the point of being "overwhelmed", and asks for mercy again and again; It doesn't matter, Xi Gunai also sent a number of beauties, and Yang Yi kept two for himself, singing and carrying wine every ri, hugging left and right.
When the soldiers saw it, they all thought that Yang Yi was so self-defeating because of his injustice, and the resentment in his heart was even stronger.
Yang Yi has been indulgent and ignored it, but quietly stepped up the transfer of grain and grass from the Great Song Dynasty.
The Liao country is poor, the people of Nanjing Road have been repeatedly looted by Yelu Yanxi, and they are already overwhelmed, and now Nanjing Road is of the Great Song Dynasty, and it is impossible to loot them in order to sell the hearts of the people; Yang Yi's logistics of tens of thousands of troops can only be transported from Waqiao Pass, and the supply demand of 60,000 troops is very shocking. The 60,000 horses brought by Yang Yi this time are basically cavalry, and if you want the horses to run fast, you can't just eat grass, you have to feed beans and even eggs, and the demand for supply is greater.
The section of the canal from Waqiaoguan to Tongzhou has been seriously silted up due to the fact that the Liao State has not been dredged for many years, and it cannot be used at all without dredging, which has added a lot of pressure to logistics and transportation.
Tang Geng is in charge of logistics, he and Wan Shifang and others found Yang Yishuai's account, and said to Yang Yi: "Da Jin, General Tang fought in Baishiling and captured more than 10,000 Jin troops, and Xia Guan suggested that these prisoners should be used to dredge the canal from Waqiao Pass to Youzhou, in addition, build a simple wharf in Yuguan, now that the river is over, the materials of Gyeonggi can enter the sea through the Yellow River, and then be transported to Yuguan." This is much less labor-intensive and costly than transshipment on 6. ”
Wan Shifang said: "In the past few years, a large number of new sea ships have been built in the official ship yard of the imperial court, and the subordinates suggest that the imperial court should appropriately requisition some, and if it is sent to Liaodong in the future, it will find some suitable places nearby as usual and build some temporary wharves for the transfer of military funds." ”
Yang Yi said with a smile: "Your white spoon idea is good, I plan to send it back to Tokyo, I believe that Cai Shangshu will definitely support your white spoon." ”
"Hehe, that's, Cai Shangshu has no reason not to support it, this time he attacked Yanyun, and Dajin saved him a lot of expenses, and when he returned to Beijing, he had to ask him to go to Fengle Building to ask for a meal."
Jijin was talking about logistics, and Ma Hanqing came in to report: "Dajin, there is a new military intelligence from Datong. ”
"Oh, tell me, how's it going?"
"Da in, after Yelu Daqing retreated to the west bank of the Yangnai River, he only supported one and a half years, and then was broken through by the black spur Mali, Yelu Daqing had to retreat again, and then supported another day in Changqing County, and then directly retreated to Datong Mansion."
Yang Yi frowned and asked, "What about them, where have they been?" ”
"Back to Dajin, when the news of the Hedong Group was announced, General Zhe Keshi had already passed Huairen County, and according to the time, it should be almost to Datong Mansion now."
Zhe Keshi is the descendant of Zhang Ji, the two began to cooperate from the Yuan Yu period when Zhang Ji was the governor of Gyeongju, Zhe Keshi made great achievements, and once defeated the 100,000 army of Western Xia with 10,000 horses, and Yang Yi led by him was not afraid of defeat to the black spur Mali, but he was afraid that he would not be able to catch up; At the beginning, the main task set for the Hedong side was to seize Datong Mansion, because the distance was relatively close, and 20,000 of the 40,000 horses on the Hedong side were infantry.
What Yang Yi is worried about now is that Zhi Keshi will be dragged down by 20,000 infantry, so that he will be attacked by the Black Thorn Mali first.
It's useless to just worry, now I can only wait patiently for the news from Zhe Keshi's side.
Ma Hanqing continued: "Da Jin, Jin Guo has sent an envoy again. ”
This was expected by Yang Yi, and it can be said that he has been preparing for this for a long time: "Bring it in." ”
