Chapter 556: Li Zicheng in the picture

Yang Cunzhong's real name is Yang Yizhong, and he is a military general. However, he is a military general who is different from Liu Qi, Li Xianzhong and others, he is not a military general who holds the power of the army and fights outside, but the chief of the guard of Zhao Gou, who is responsible for protecting the personal safety of Song Gaozong. Since Gaozong's southern crossing during the Jingkang period, he has been in charge of Gaozong's security work, and has rescued Gaozong from dangerous situations many times.

But after all, he is a military general, and he is personally inclined to resist the war, but because he is good at greeting, he can stand tall in the gap between Gaozong and Qin Hui

Yue Fei was beheaded that year, and he Yang Cunzhong was the supervisor and beheader.

Zhao Gou died, and the new emperor Zhao Yan ascended the throne, so he naturally wanted to use his own people, even if no one could use the people of the first emperor, so Yang Cunzhong was deprived of military power and stood aside.

Seeing the victory of the Northern Expedition and the prestige of Emperor Zhao Yan rising step by step, when Yang Cunzhong had to retire gloomily next, the new emperor suddenly died!

The new emperor was only ten years old.

The Empress Dowager Guo fell ill all of a sudden, and within a few days she went to see the first emperor.

This is interesting, the power of the court has smoothly fallen into the hands of the political hall.

The Praetorian Guard, the Front Division of the Palace, and the Imperial City Division were a little chaotic for a while, but the ministers of the Political Hall looked down on them at all, and almost wanted to disassemble and dismantle.

It's just that I didn't expect that the army of Fengzhou was so strong, not only swept the north, but also waved the army south, to "Fengtian Jing", so Yang Cunzhong, the general of the Praetorian Guard in the prime of life, was naturally invited to serve as a high-ranking official.

It is used to fight against the sealing boat, and at the same time serve as a pot for civil officials, so as to be thrown off at any time.

In the eyes of Chen Kangbo, Shi Hao and others, Yang Cunzhong's role is to stabilize the hearts of the forbidden army. If the Black Rakshasa can clean up the sealed boat, then Yang Cunzhong will be useless, and he will go wherever he is far away when the time comes.

But things I didn't expect happened one after another.

Feng Zhou not only killed the Black Rakshasa but also occupied Jiankang Mansion on the same day.

After capturing Jiankang Mansion, instead of taking the opportunity to go south, he sat in the Purple Mountain, stabilized the hearts of the army and the people, and was not in a hurry to go south. I also talk to some warlocks from time to time.

This gave the civil officials an illusion, thinking that there was hope for peace, so they immediately dismissed Yang Cunzhong's position and sent him to do an idle job.

But when Zhao Kui returned to Lin'an and brought back Feng Zhou's claim plan, and then Feng Zhou put forward a list of forty-three war criminals, the entire Lin'an court exploded at once.

Some people cried, some people made noise, and some people shouted hoarsely that the forbidden army should be loyal to the country at this time, and should go north to kill the boat.

At this time, Yang Cun found that whether he was submissive or jumped out of the play to watch the show, he couldn't get out of the matter after all, and if he didn't make a move, he was afraid that he would be fooled by the civil officials.

Coincidentally, the list of 43 war criminals was all civil officials of the imperial court, and Yang Cunzhong survived.

Therefore, he simply did not stop doing anything, and attracted the backbone forces of the forbidden army, the Imperial City Division, and the Imperial Front Division, and suddenly exerted his power to control the imperial palace and various official offices, as well as the residences of these forty-three war criminals, and wiped them out.

I have to say that the guy who can maintain the anti-Japanese war position under the noses of Zhao Gou and Qin Hui, and still rise step by step, is definitely not a fuel-efficient lamp.

Chen Kangbo and Shi Hao ignored him and played him like a chess piece, but Yang Cunzhong made a backhand shot, which was not wronged.

A few days later, Feng Zhou led an army of 50,000 to Lin'an, Yang Cunzhong personally greeted him, and paid a big salute: "The last general Yang Cunzhong saw Lord Taiwei, Taiwei Northern Expedition, all the way to destroy the strong, and recaptured the land of Yanyun, the first military merit of our dynasty, and the last general admired." ”

Feng Zhou smiled and said, "General Yang, please get up." You now have two options. ”

Yang Cunzhong hurriedly made a respectful gesture.

"First, the world is at the beginning of the peace, but there are still undercurrents surging in various places, the general can choose a town guard in Liangzhejiang Road, Jiangnan Road and other places, as long as Zhao Song is the right Shuo, and go all out to fight those so-called cultivators. You can pull 20,000 or 30,000 people with you. ”

"As for the second, I know that the general is a native of Daizhou, and he has suppressed bandits in various parts of the north since he was a child, and now the area of Shanxi and northern Shaanxi has not yet been recovered, I can give you 100,000 troops, go to conquer Shanxi and northern Shaanxi, and after recovering Western Xia, you will be the governor of Shanxi, and you will still be the governor of Shanxi as long as you serve Zhao Song as the right Shuo, and go all out to fight against those so-called cultivators, and at the same time you must be ready to attack Western Xia. So which one do you choose?" Feng Zhou said with a smile.

"The last general is willing to go to the north, lead an army of 100,000, and recapture Shanxi and northern Shaanxi!"

Yang Cunzhong bowed down without hesitation and said.

Wealth does not return to the hometown, such as brocade clothes at night.

Although Jiangnan is good, the soaked bones are soft.

He Yang Cunzhong is only in his fifties, and it is not yet time to enjoy peace, so it is better to take advantage of the fact that his body is not old, take his brothers north to the Central Plains, fight against the Jin people, fight back to his hometown, and claim the king and hegemony there.

Besides, he has cleaned up so many officials in Lin'an, and if he stays in Jiangnan, who knows which relatives will work under his nose?

In case you are not careful, the boat capsizes in the gutter, and the gains outweigh the losses.

"Okay, General Yang is ambitious, and he is really a hero!"

In fact, after Fengzhou defeated Lin'an, he had already thought about rewarding meritorious deeds.

But no matter how the rewards are awarded, he will not only guarantee the interests of these military leaders, but also let them enjoy more favorable treatment than civilian officials.

In this way, they will do their best to suppress the civilian officials and prevent them from rebounding.

Yang Cunzhong, as an excellent general as his subordinate Li Xianzhong, will of course be rewarded by Feng Zhou.

This Yang Cunzhong is his literary golden horse bone.

"Let's go, let's go into town!"

Feng Zhou turned over and said.

Immediately afterwards, he entered the Jiahui Gate accompanied by Yang Cunzhong.

At this time, the people of Lin'an almost poured out of the city, and hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians greeted on both sides of the street leading to the main gate of Li, expressing their high respect to the commander of this army full of legend and great prestige.

After all, people can lead the army to win battles when they get on the horse, and they can talk about the scriptures and preach when they get off the horse. It is said that the governance of the northern part of the Huajiang River is in good order, and it is simply the legendary Mandate of Heaven!

In order to enter the city this time, Feng Zhou also made some preparations.

He rode a black horse, wore a felt hat, put on a kind smile, and greeted the soldiers and civilians on both sides with fists, looking just like Li Zicheng in the picture, and the same soldiers and civilians also cheered more enthusiastically.

In fact, in the past few years, he has all kinds of magical legends and prestige in Lin'an City, and his invincible image can be described as deep-rooted, even if Yang Cunzhong did not defect and arrest many officials, in fact, as long as he is here, the whole city will also surrender.

And the reason why Feng Zhou has not come to Lin'an for a long time is actually to see how far these civil officials can go without a lower limit.

I didn't expect them to play themselves so badly.

Riding all the way, they soon came to the main entrance of the palace.

The main gate of the Lin'an Palace is called the main gate of Li, two years ago, Feng Zhou was besieged by the warlocks of the Taiyi faction of Qiyun Mountain, more than two years have passed, the Taiyi faction of Qiyun Mountain has long disappeared, and Feng Zhou has become the master of the world. Come to think of it, it's a bit of a world away.

Feng Zhou looked up at the plaque at the main gate of Li, turned his head to Yang Cunzhong and smiled: "The pipe has clouds, and the gentleman is in the middle." There is a 'medium' character in the general's name, so I will take this 'zheng' character!" His strength was strong, and the arrow went straight into the city wall, leaving only a white feather, and everyone cheered.

Amid the cheers, the team entered the Nangong Gate, and Feng Zhou looked at the square in front of the Daqing Hall in front of him with a smile, where a large number of officials in prison uniforms lined up in a phalanx, bowing their heads and silently under the custody of the soldiers around them.

"The Son of Heaven is temporarily staying in the Funing Palace, and the Empress Dowager Wei is in the Cining Palace, which is an official of the court and the central government. Yang Cunzhong said.

After all, he has followed Zhao Gou for many years, and he still has a love for the Song royal family, so he didn't embarrass them much.

But he didn't let go of the officials of the DPRK and China.

Over the past year, these civilian officials have relied on the strength of the crowd and have transferred him to his official position, which can be said to be a great humiliation to him.

"It's a pity that Qin Hui died early," Feng Zhou smiled, "Which one is Wan Qiao?"
