Chapter 66: Wen Death Admonishes Wu to Fight to the Death
On the hill,
Yang Ming closed his eyes to heal his wounds and waited for Feng Li to make a choice!
Yang Ming gave information on Danzhou, Yanzhou, and western Liaoning, and analyzed the problems existing in the country and the surrounding alien races after the Xuanwumen incident in the Tang Dynasty. Yang Ming boldly speculated that the Tang Dynasty might be due to the Xuanwumen incident, which would lead to the separation of monarchs and ministers, the division of the country, and the extinction of the nation!
Feng Li doesn't care about personal life and death, and he is not afraid to go north to work hard with aliens!
On the one hand, it was he who instigated Li Jiancheng's brothers to kill each other, causing Li Jiancheng to die tragically in Xuanwumen. On the other hand, it was also he who assisted Li Jiancheng in seizing power, planting eyes and ears among officers and generals in various places, and forming factional disputes. As a result, after Li Jiancheng was killed, various places fell into turmoil, and aliens had an opportunity.
From ancient times to the present, factional strife has been deliberately carried out by those in power, in order to restrain and balance the power of many families above the court.
However, Li Yuan never imagined that his two sons were too good, so good that after a round of suppression, they were both thrown in the backyard of the palace and reduced to the emperor.
The great changes in Chang'an City caught the defenders everywhere off guard, and Li Yuan's faction and Li Jiancheng's faction were all in panic, for fear that one day a holy decree would end up in death.
Many of these active officials, in order to protect themselves, thought of Zhao Deyan in the Sui Dynasty who was in the Turks, so there was a large-scale southward movement of the Turks, and the occurrence of the Weishui Alliance...
Many of Yi Yuwei's soldiers knelt down one after another after learning about Yang Ming's thoughts and the general situation on the hill.
"General, lead us to the Turks!"
"General, we are willing to die in battle, rather than die in a foreign land!"
"General, the look on the way those refugees look at us makes me feel ashamed!"
"General, let's defend our home and country! We don't want to run away anymore! β
γγγγγγ
Yi Yuwei soldiers, every word you said to me deeply shook Feng Li's heart to escape from the Tang Dynasty.
"Once the sea was difficult to water, except for Wushan, it is not a cloud."
"Brother Feng, Datang's heritage is still very strong. For the sake of the great righteousness of the world, in order to save the people from the dire situation, raise your banner, let's have a vigorous battle with the Turks! β
Seeing that the time was ripe, Yang Ming opened his eyes and began to mend the knife!
Feng Li knew that he had committed a lot of crimes, so that hundreds of people in the Tang Dynasty died tragically under the iron hooves of the Turks, and also caused countless people to leave their homes and starve to death on the way south.
As Li Jiancheng's number one thug, Feng Li's every move represents the subsequent future of Li Jiancheng's faction.
"Yi Yu Guard, the warriors obey the order! Hold high the banner, tidy up your clothes, have a good rest after a full meal, and in a few days General Ben will lead you back to the battlefield, annihilate the Turks, and raise the prestige of our country! β
As soon as Feng Li said his words, the soldiers below seemed to have been reborn, their blood was boiling, and Huo Huo prepared for the next battle when he sharpened his sword. As a well-equipped and powerful Yi Yuwei, he lives a life of hiding in Tibet every day, which is indeed too embarrassing.
"The general is mighty!"
"I wish to die with the general in a hundred battles!"
"Kill! Kill! Kill~"
"Fight! War! Battle~"
"Woo woo woo~"
Yi Yuwei's horn sounded in the caravan, and the original Yi Yuwei, who dared to attack Chang'an City with 2,000 men and horses, fought more with less, and successfully killed Li Shimin's two generals, returned!
The morale is high and the spirit is high, like a phoenix nirvana, reborn from the fire!
ββββββ Dividing Lineββββββ
Liaoxi City,
Yang Miao took a few entourages to the granary to inspect and find out.
Why check the granary suddenly? Because Yang Miao received a wire report, there is a problem with the granary in western Liaoning!
Originally, there were not many guards in Liaoxi, there were not many people, but there was a lot of food.
Now Huairou has 3,000 reinforcements and entered Liaoxi City to assist in the defense. Although this support army is all veteran soldiers, they also sent troops to help at critical moments.
However, after the arrival of reinforcements, the city of Liaoxi changed the supply of food.
The ration of three pancakes and three steamed cakes per soldier a day has been reduced to two pancakes and two steamed cakes per person per day.
The supply of food dropped by 33% directly, which made Yang Miao, who was in a high position and had nothing to do every day, very unhappy! So there was the incident of Yang Miao leading people to inspect the granary of Liaoxi City.
"Yo! Isn't this our young and promising Lord Yang! Which gust of wind brought you over? β
The fat man Xie was sharp-eyed, and when he saw Yang Miao coming, he stepped forward to talk.
Yang Miao saw that Xie Cangjian was fat and round, and couldn't help but joke:
"Don't mess around, be careful that the oil on your body will come out!"
Xie Cangjian was speechless, I don't seem to have offended you! This is clearly a personal attack. The official level crushed people to death, not to mention that Yang Miao was a Beijing official, and he came to do something, although Xie Cangjian was a little dissatisfied, he still had to greet him with a smile!
"I said Lord Cangjian, the brothers in the Liaoxi Post Station are dying of hunger, are you deducting the food for the brothers in the post station!"
Yang Miao took out the notebook she had with her, and while brushing and writing something, she stared at Xie Cangjian's big belly.
Xie Cangjian nodded and bowed, followed behind Yang Miao like a dog's leg, and after confirming that Yang Miao was looking for nothing, he secretly signaled his subordinates to hurry up and move the rescuers, otherwise he would have to let the second generation of officials who didn't know anything play to death.
"If you go back to Lord Yang, the brothers of our post station will be served according to three steamed cakes and three pancakes per person every day. The war horses in the post station are also divided into grades, with good forage and bean supply, the lower officials have ten guts, and they dare not deduct the food of the post station brothers for no reason! β
At this time, as soon as I saw a story happening, there were many people eating melons outside the granary, and the people were very curious about Yang Miao's arrival, and they talked about it.
Fortunately, at this time, Zhou Kang led a group of officials to arrive in time, and after dismissing the crowd of onlookers, he personally came over to connect with Yang Miao.
"I don't know what instructions Lord Yang has when he goes to the granary of Liaoxi?!"
Zhou Kang saw Yang Miao, who had nothing to do every day, to join the army, so he almost directly asked him to stay where he was cool. You didn't come to Liaoxi to inspect on orders, so don't mess around with your sense of existence and add chaos to people?!
"Zhou County's order can be seen that on the eve of the war, the daily food of the soldiers defending the city has been reduced?! Even the Huairou reinforcements who came to support were two pancakes a day and two steamed cakes?! β
Zhou Kang, who was angry, pulled up Yang Miao's sleeves, dragged him into the office cabin of the granary without saying anything, closed the door and asked:
"My Lord Yang, Young Master Yang, please do well, don't come to plague Liaoxi City, okay?!" Now that Liaoxi is embattled, the officials in the lower mansion are so busy that their feet don't touch the ground, don't you make a mess when you are old, can you?! β
Yang Miao ignored the matter, picked up the notebook and shook it in front of Zhou Kang and said:
"It's hard to disobey the military order! I have to trouble Lord Zhou to cooperate! Let's stay in Liaoxi for so long, we can't just eat and not work! Besides, those big men in Chang'an City really want to know some things on the front line. β
The soft ones are afraid of the hard, the hard ones are afraid of the horizontal, and the horizontal ones are afraid of the stupid!
When Zhou Kang encountered the difficult Yang Miao, he could only surrender and admit it. Who let the family, as a Beijing official, be able to take responsibility at any time, pat his ass and leave?!
"Alright! Then let's get it straight, how does Lord Yang need me to cooperate?! β
Yang Miao raised her eyebrows, leaned over and asked with a smile:
"Lord Zhou, what is the reason for the reduction of military supplies this time? As far as I know, the granary in our Liaoxi City has a lot of military rations that can be dispatched, and it is not to the point of reducing the distribution of materials now! β
When Zhou Kang heard this, he almost couldn't get up in one breath. If it weren't for the fact that this product was appointed by the imperial court to join the army, Zhou Kang would have suspected that Yang Miao was a spy sent by the Turks!
"I said, Lord Yang, these are all basic operations! Now that the Turks are invading on a large scale and the troops are approaching the city, we do not have the strength to go out of the city to meet the enemy, so we can only control the military supply to ensure that there will be no turmoil in the city of Liaoxi, so that the people of the city can survive the crisis safely and survive until the Turks leave. β
"Regular operations?! There is no such thing as an intermediate deduction?! So we still have enough food to supply in Liaoxi City?! β
Yang Miao was stunned, glared at his entourage fiercely, listened to the wind is rain, and made small reports, allowing himself to toss around like a clown.
Since there was no news of Yang Ming, he couldn't go back to Chang'an City, and Yang Miao and his group were idle at the post station every day, and they had nothing to do. This time I will come to the granary to inspect it, and it is also some rumors that the entourage heard outside.
In order to end this farce quickly, Zhou Kang asked Xie Cang to supervise the granary and let Yang Miao personally inspect it, so that he could get out and return to the county office, and discuss with everyone the best plan to defend the enemy strategy and defend the city in turn.
"Xie Cangjian, quickly tear open the seal, open the door of the granary, and take Lord Yang to inspect the granary of our Liaoxi City. So that Lord Yang can put his mind at ease, and he can help us with a few good words when he goes to Chang'an! β
Xie Cangjian didn't expect that Zhou County's order would order Yang Miao to tear open the seal and open the warehouse door for inspection because of Yang Miao's blind tossing, and he was suddenly sweating profusely.
"Lord Prefectural, it's not good to do this! There was no one from Youzhou, so we tore the seal in private, in case there was any problem in the follow-up, I can't afford it! β
Yang Miao took a look, there was a head! There must be something wrong with this Xie Cangjian, so he took out the holy decree, put it in front of him and shook it, and frightened:
"The group of rice buckets in Youzhou are probably squatting in the prison now, do you recognize the holy decree or those thieves?! I'm starting to doubt your loyalty to the Holy One now?! β
The fat Xie Cangjian was frightened by Yang Miao, and immediately knelt on the ground and begged for mercy:
"Lord Yang, the subordinate officials are soft-spoken, they all do things according to the rules, and I hope to forgive me for the offense. The subordinate will tear off the seal and open the warehouse door for you to check! β
Zhou Kang has been in the officialdom for so long, and Xie Cangjian's abnormal behavior alone made him aware of the abnormality.
So this time, he was not in a hurry to return to the yamen, so he accompanied Yang Miao, and let Yang Miao come forward to shoulder this responsibility, and he could also inspect the granary in western Liaoning.
He also began to feel that there was a problem with the granary in Liaoxi, and the Turks were just outside the city, and he wouldn't be able to sleep if he didn't solve the problem of the granary!
