Some people don't understand that they are still good to the people, why are the people just not grateful and loyal to themselves? I remind the people all day and night, how good I am to you, if you didn't have me, you wouldn't have such a good life now, but the people only take him as a deaf ear, and don't take him seriously at all. You want others to appreciate your kindness, but they only look at you with contempt. Don't blame the people for not knowing how to be grateful, it's really that you don't know a truth, that is, the truth that the strong are respected! If you are a waste who is soft and full of peace and coexistence, no matter how good you are to the people, the people will not take you seriously, they will not hesitate to abandon you and follow the strong man in their minds, why is Yang Peng so popular in Yanjing, this is the truth, a very simple truth.

It's far away, let's get down to business. Xiang Danian saw that the Goryeo people couldn't understand his words at all, so he simply whispered to explain his martial arts. Wu Xing raised his voice to the people of Goryeo: "Everyone line up and enter in turn, and the rest of the matter will be arranged by our Yanyun officials!" When the people of Goryeo heard this, they quickly stood up and lined up in front of the city gate, and in a matter of moments they formed a long line with almost no end in sight. The people of Goryeo were inspected by the soldiers of the Yanyun army in turn, and only after confirming that there was no problem were they allowed to enter the city, the Yanyun army mainly checked whether these Goryeo people were carrying weapons, and if they brought weapons and were strong men, they would be immediately detained. Among the people in the queue behind, someone saw this situation, so he quietly threw away the weapon on his body, but he didn't expect others to see his behavior and immediately expose him loudly, when even Sergeant Yanyun rushed up to take it down. Seeing that the situation was not good, a few people quickly left the team and fled.

Yang Peng and Ye Yu Guanyin returned to the temporary camp, and before they could sit down, Wang Kai rushed in, presented a letter, and said, "The military report sent by Lord Yang Ying from Yanjing. ”

Ye Yu Guanyin stepped forward, took the military report, and came over to hand it to Yang Peng. Yang Peng picked up the military newspaper and looked at it, only to see that the envelope was written with four beautiful and dignified characters, which were Yang Ying's handwriting. Yang Peng smiled, opened the envelope, took out the stationery, unfolded it, and frowned slightly. Ye Yu Guanyin, who was standing on the side, saw Yang Peng showing such a look, and guessed a few points without reading the letter, and couldn't help but feel anxious in his heart.

Yang Peng put down the letter and frowned: "The Liao army fought fiercely with the Mongolian army under the leadership of Ye Hu Cheng, and was defeated in successive battles, and has retreated to the north bank of the Cang'er River, and at the same time, Shangjing Mansion has been lost. "Cang'er River, the boundary river at the junction of Shangjing Road and Zhongjing Road in Liaoguo.

Although Ye Yu Guanyin had already expected a few points, when he heard such news, he still felt a shock in his heart, and it was difficult to accept it, and he frowned and said: "The eldest brother is extraordinarily brave, and he is also a veteran on the battlefield, leading twice the enemy's troops, how could he be defeated so badly?" Even if it is difficult to defeat the Mongol army, it should be possible to hold the front! How could it be so defeated! ”

Yang Peng couldn't help but think of the feat of the Mongolian iron cavalry sweeping Eurasia in history, only 20,000 cavalry actually annihilated more than 100,000 heavy cavalry coalition forces in Europe, the strength of the combat power naturally does not need to be repeated, its 300,000 cavalry broke the 600,000 army of Yelu Tiger City, it is not an incomprehensible thing, on the contrary, it should be a matter of course. It's just that the Mongols are so powerful, I'm afraid that the Khitans won't be able to resist for long, if the Khitans collapse and the Mongols annex the land of Liao, then Yan Yun is afraid that he will have to face the most terrible opponent! Yang Peng frowned slightly, thinking about how to deal with the worst situation, but unfortunately Yanyun is short of food and grass now, otherwise he will raise a large army to help the Khitans deal with the Mongols, and completely defeat the Mongols when the Mongols have not really risen! Yang Peng believed that the Yanyun Tiger Wolf he had created single-handedly would not be inferior to the Mongolian army.

Yang Peng put his chaotic thoughts behind for the time being, glanced at Ye Yu Guanyin, and saw her frowning and very sad appearance, so he comforted her and said: "Don't worry too much, Liao is a powerful country that can be compared to our Yanyun, although the Mongols are amazingly powerful, it is not easy to defeat Liao!" I think the Liao State will definitely be able to withstand the Mongol attack! Ya Yu Guanyin glanced at Yang Peng and said, "Although I am worried, it is useless!" I am a rebel of the Great Liao Kingdom, and the rise and fall of the Great Liao Kingdom has nothing to do with me! Yang Peng smiled softly. Ya Yu Guanyin suddenly said angrily: "I'm not the kind of useless woman, you don't have to worry about me!" Yang Peng smiled and nodded.

Ya Yu Guanyin remembered something and asked, "Is this only the case in Yang Ying's letter?" Yang Peng glanced at the letter in his hand and said, "She also said some information about Tianjing New Town......" Speaking of this, Yang Peng frowned, and a trace of anger flashed in his eyes.

Wang Xiaozhi, the envoy of the imperial court, was in Tianjing New City for many days, although Meng Hanbing and Yelu Hanyu met several times and talked very happily, but Wang Xiaozhi never got what he wanted most. The reason why the ministers of the court rushed to be the minister of the imperial court that day, and the reason why he Wang Xiaozhi was willing to travel thousands of miles to take this trip, to put it bluntly, was actually just thinking that this was a beautiful trip, as long as he arrived in Tianjing New Town, King Yan would definitely give countless gold, silver and jewelry. However, Wang Xiaozhi had been in Tianjing New Town for many days, and although Yan Yun was very polite to him, he did not have a gift of silver or two to his hands, so he couldn't help but feel resentment in his heart.

Wang Xiaozhi stayed in Tianjing New Town for a few more days, and saw that Yan Yun had no intention of bribing him at all, and felt that it was meaningless to stay any longer, so he decided to leave for Beijing the next day, and had already calculated in his heart that he wanted to sue Yang Peng in front of the emperor, and it was light to snub the angels. Wang Xiao said fiercely: "If you snub me so much, I will also make you have no good fruit to eat!" "This is a scholar, hatred can come so quickly, not long ago he flattered Yang Peng vigorously!

That night, an uninvited guest came to visit and wanted to ask to see Wang Xiaozhi. Wang Xiaozhi was angry and didn't want to see it, but after seeing the gift sent by the other party, he changed his mind, it was an egg-sized night pearl, with Wang Xiaozhi's knowledge, he knew that it was definitely a rare treasure, even if it was royalty, a treasure like this was rare.

Wang Xiaozhi met the uninvited guest in the back hall of the guest house. The person who came was a thin, tall, young and handsome young man, dressed in a Confucian shirt, with a graceful demeanor and elegance. He bowed to Wang Xiao very respectfully and said, "The late-born Shang Shiheng greets my lord!" ”

Wang Xiaozhi's expression moved, and he hurriedly glanced at Shang Shiheng and asked, "Are you the Shang Shiheng who has been the champion in the Taizong Dynasty and is famous all over the world?" Shang Shiheng smiled and said, "It's just below!" Wang Xiaozhi laughed and said: "It turned out to be a talented man of Shangda, disrespectful and disrespectful!" Shang Shiheng hurriedly bowed down and said, "Don't dare, don't dare!" Adults praise it falsely! "This Shang Shiheng, a native of Cangzhou, was a talented man with the same name as Ni Chengmou back then, and he was the champion in the Taizong period, and later made the general judgment of Jinzhou in Shanxi. Soon after, the Khitan people marched south, the state capitals of Shanxi fell one after another, those who were full of poetry and books scrambled to surrender to the foreign enemy, and Shang Shiheng, who was the general judge of Jinzhou at that time, naturally adhered to the concept of "good birds choose trees and perch" and surrendered to the Khitans with the flow, and was promoted by the Khitans to become the prefect of Jinzhou.

However, there are unforeseen circumstances, and the Khitans occupied the Central Plains for a long time, so Yanyun rose strongly to fight the Central Plains and recover the rivers and mountains. The Khitans retreated to the north of Yanmen Pass, and Shang Shiheng saw the wind and immediately surrendered to Yanyun. Yan Yun retained his original position, but soon after, in the annual official evaluation, the merchant was revoked from his position by the Yan Wangfu and reinstated due to the corruption of the Jinzhou officials under Heng's rule and the chaos of civil affairs. Shang Shiheng thought that Yang Peng had harmed the scholars, hated Yang Peng to the core, and when he drank and chatted with the people in the Shilin, he always intentionally or unintentionally revealed his dissatisfaction and hostility towards Yan Wang and Yan Yun, and once compared Yan Wang Yang Peng to Qin Shi Huang after drinking, saying that many of Yang Peng's policies against the education sector and scholars were simply Qin Shi Huang's book burning and pit Confucianism. This remark reached Yang Peng's ears, but Yang Peng did not take it seriously, but thought that Qin Shi Huang's mistake in burning books and pit Confucianism was that he did not kill Confucianism completely and did not burn the Confucian classics cleanly, otherwise Huaxia would not have been slowly exhausted and eventually became a castrated tiger. The greatest role of Confucianism is not to fight with others and teach them to compete and forge ahead, but to wear down their fighting spirit and become a waste to be slaughtered by others.

Wang Xiaozhi smiled, "Shang Gongzi doesn't have to be polite, back then, the official had admired the name of Gongzi for a long time, but he didn't have the opportunity to see him at that time." Then he pointed to the seat on the left, "Childe, please take a seat." Shang Shiheng sat down, walked to the left and sat down. Hugging his fists, he said: "I took the liberty to visit, I have a big event that I want to discuss with adults!" Wang Xiaozhi listened to him.

Shang Shiheng raised his eyebrows, revealing a sad and distressed expression, and said: "Your Excellency, do you know that what King Yan is doing now is simply the same as Qin Shi Huang's book burning and pit Confucianism back then, and in some respects it is even excessive!" If he is allowed to continue to do nonsense, in time, the land of China will collapse and morals will be corrupted, and the damage will be much more serious than that of the Khitans going south! What the Khitan people can't do, but the King of Yan has done it, and the court must find a way to stop him! Otherwise, although my Huaxia clan has not perished, it is equivalent to perishing! ”

Wang Xiaozhi exclaimed: "There is such a thing? ”

Shang Shiheng took out a booklet from the sleeve of his robe, stood up, and presented it to Wang Xiaozhi with both hands. Wang Xiao went directly to the booklet, opened it, and read it. At this time, Shang Shiheng said: "I used to be an official under King Yan, but I couldn't get used to his perverse behavior, so I resolutely resigned." This pamphlet is the tip of the iceberg of a series of perverse policies implemented by King Yan. ”

Wang Xiaozhi didn't take it to heart, pretended to look at it, and frowned: "I didn't expect King Yan to be so ignorant, isn't this going to destroy the order of etiquette and music that was finally established after the violent Qin?" I really don't understand what he thinks? ”

Shang Shiheng hugged his fists and said: "My lord, those of my generation who are studying, it is incumbent on us to uphold the way of the saint, and we must not let Yang Peng's perverse behavior continue, and it must be stopped!" For the future of our Huaxia clan and the well-being of thousands of Li people, we must terminate the Yan King and save the Li people from hanging upside down! Shang Shiheng said sincerely, and when it came to the emotional part, he was even more sobbing and extremely excited.

Wang Xiaozhi said secretly: 'As an angel, I have traveled thousands of miles on behalf of the imperial court to express goodwill to him on behalf of the emperor, but he has not expressed anything, so sloppy is really unbearable! You have to give him some color to see, so that he can understand that Lord Ben is not easy to mess with! As soon as he thought of this, he wanted to take advantage of this Shang Shiheng, so he said bitterly: "This official and His Majesty originally thought that King Yan was the pillar of the country, but they didn't expect him to be so ridiculous and do so many perverse things against the laws of the ancestors, it's really too much!" ”

When Shang Shiheng saw Wang Xiaozhi say this, he couldn't help but be secretly happy, and hurriedly hit the railway while it was hot: "The imperial court is the Zhengshuo of China, and at this critical moment of the intermittent morality of China's survival, the perverse atrocities of King Yan must not be tolerated, and he should publicly issue a decree to reprimand King Yan's atrocities, and even directly send troops to restore the bright blue sky!" Only in this way can we live up to the hopes of all the people in the world, calm the anger of the scholars in the world, and save China from falling into the abyss of no return! ”

Wang Xiaozhi nodded approvingly, and exclaimed: "What Shang Gongzi said is extremely true! If you sit idly by, not to mention the whole of China, at least the Central Plains will fall into a catastrophe, although the Central Plains is not ruled by foreign races, but it is also equivalent to the sinking of the land, and even the harm is still excessive! Confucian orthodoxy, which was bought by countless people with lofty ideals with their blood, is the choice of history, and naturally it is also the choice of the people. ”

Shang Shiheng couldn't help but high-five and said, "My lord's words are extremely true! Those of my generation who study must shed their blood to maintain Confucian orthodoxy, and never give up! ”

Wang Xiaozhi showed a look of embarrassment, and said: "Although my thoughts are the same as those of Shang Gongzi, but now Yanyun dominates the world, and the military power is unrivaled for a while, the Khitans have been defeated in successive battles, and the Western Xia is on the verge of extinction!" Glancing at Shang Shiheng, "Shang Gongzi, if you want to stop King Yan's atrocities, how easy is it!" Although the imperial court can issue an edict, if King Yan doesn't listen, it will be helpless! In my opinion, the best way is that Shang Gongzi is equal to internal trouble, and the influence of the Confucian scholars in various places is not small, as long as you unite to put pressure on King Yan, I believe he will not dare to disobey! Wang Xiaozhi just wanted to take the opportunity to incite the Confucian scholars who were dissatisfied with King Yan to make trouble, so as to show that King Yan did not bribe him.

Shang Shiheng listened to Wang Xiaozhi's words and said: "What the adults said is reasonable, but it is also biased! Naturally, we have the heart to fight, but we are obviously not enough, we need the strong support of the imperial court! Seeing that Wang Xiaozhi also showed hesitation, he said: "The adult is an angel, although some things will lead to murder if they are leaked, but they cannot be concealed from the adult." Wang Xiao showed curiosity.

Shang Shiheng lowered his voice and said, "Don't hide it, in fact, we are secretly planning to overthrow King Yan!" Wang Xiaozhi's expression moved, and he only heard Shang Shiheng continue: "We have already planned to seize Tianjing New City when King Yan is not in Tianjing New Town. When Wang Xiaozhi heard this, he couldn't help but be taken aback, looked at Shang Shiheng and asked in disbelief: "You want to seize Tianjing New City?" Shang Shiheng nodded, "Exactly!" "Looking at his appearance, he seems to be confident and confident.

Wang Xiao straightened his mind and couldn't help thinking: 'If Shang Shiheng and they can really capture Tianjing New City, presumably Yanyun will immediately become chaotic, and if the imperial court sends a large army to the north at that time, maybe, maybe, maybe...... ' At this thought, he couldn't help but be very excited, and only felt that a great merit that shook the past and the present seemed to be within reach! Then he thought: 'Yang Peng doesn't take me seriously like this, I'm going to let him die a bad death!' When the imperial army wiped out Yan Yun and captured Yang Peng, I want to see if he can still be so arrogant! Thinking of this, my whole body trembled with excitement.

Shang Shiheng had been looking at Wang Xiaozhi, and seeing the excited smile on his face, he immediately knew that his words had an effect, and continued: "After the matter is completed, the adults will certainly achieve great achievements, and they will also dedicate the treasure house of King Yan to the adults!" ”

Wang Xiaozhi's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked, "King Yan's treasure house?" King Yan actually has a treasure trove? ”

Shang Shiheng nodded, deliberately tempting him and said: "My lord doesn't know, that Yang Peng rose in Yanyun, swept through the Central Plains within a few years, and defeated the Khitans and Western Xia one after another, and obtained countless treasures, which are now hoarded in the treasure trove in the backyard of the Yanwang Mansion. The value of this treasure house is unimaginable, and I am afraid that the treasury of the Great Song Dynasty when it was the strongest cannot be compared with it! Wang Xiaozhi listened to such words, his eyes couldn't help but shine, and he swallowed his saliva frequently. glanced at Shang Shiheng and said with a smile: "The prince is willing to give this treasure house to this official?" ”

Shang Shiheng said: "Once the chaos is set right, the adults should be the first to take the lead, it is a miracle to reshape the rivers and mountains and reorganize the sun and the moon!" How can a little treasure repay the merits of the adults! Don't shirk it! ”

Wang Xiaozhi was overjoyed and said with a smile: "Since the prince of Shang said so, wouldn't it be hypocritical for this official to refrain from resigning!" Anyway, the official will accept the good intentions of the merchant son! Shang Shiheng hugged his fists and said: "This is what adults deserve!" ”

Wang Xiao stroked his hair and smiled, he was very happy in his heart, and then he thought of a question, frowned, and asked, "Is Shang Gongzi sure to seize Tianjing New City?" If Shang Shiheng was just talking in the vernacular, then his previous series of promises would be nothing more than a flower in the mirror, what is the difference between it and a sweet dream.

Shang Shiheng saw Wang Xiaozhi's worries, and said categorically: "Don't worry, my lord, everything is ready!" Then he lowered his voice and said mysteriously: "To be honest, we have already bought off a part of the Yanyun army, and the people of Tianjing New City and many places around it have also been secretly organized by us!" Speaking of this, his face showed a look of pride, and he said: "It's not a boast, as long as you give an order, within a few days, hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians will attack Tianjing New City!" Wang Xiao couldn't help but be very surprised when he saw Shang Shiheng's words, and then sighed: "Shang Gongzi is really a world-class talent!" ”

Shang Shiheng smiled and hugged his fists and said, "My lord praised it falsely!" Then Zhengse said: "Although we are fully sure of capturing Tianjing New City in one fell swoop, we can't wipe out Yanyun on our own. At that time, you will need the help of the imperial court. After hoping that we had captured the new city of Tianjing, the imperial court immediately sent a large army across the river north into the Central Plains. After we seize Tianjing New City, Yanyun will inevitably be in chaos, this is a great opportunity for the imperial court's Northern Expedition to the Central Plains to eradicate traitors and restore the rivers and mountains, as long as the imperial army enters the Central Plains, Yanyun will inevitably be defeated like a mountain and collapse, and the great man's miracle will be! ”

Wang Xiaozhi nodded sympathetically, thinking of the scene of overthrowing Yan Yun, his whole body trembled with excitement. frowned and said: "This official will go back this time, and he must convince His Majesty!" ”

Shang Shiheng hurriedly said: "I won't act here for the time being, waiting for news from adults." Wang Xiaozhi nodded.

The next morning, Wang Xiaozhi and others left Tianjing New Town and returned to Bianjing. Soon after leaving Tianjing New Town, he met Shang Shiheng, who had been waiting here for a long time. I saw Shang Shiheng dressed in a black Confucian shirt, as graceful as ever, with two entourages standing behind him, and a large red lacquered wooden box was placed in front of the entourage. Shang Shiheng hugged his fists and said: "My lord is here, Guanshan is thousands of miles, and I don't know when I will see each other again!" Then he pointed to the wooden box, "This is a little bit of the heart of the local scholar Confucian in Xia, please don't dislike it!" Immediately waved his hand, and the two entourages immediately carried the wooden box in front of Wang Xiaozhi and put it down, and then returned to Shang Shiheng and stood behind him.

Wang Xiaozhi saw that the two entourages were struggling to carry the wooden box, and immediately knew that the wooden box must be full of gold and silver treasures, and couldn't help but be happy in his heart, and said to Shang Shiheng: "Take care of Shang Gongzi, what we said last night, this official will definitely go all out!" If all goes well, I believe that you and I will see you again soon! ”

Shang Shiheng hugged his fists and returned the salute: "Master Tuo Jiyan, I believe that this major event will be successful!" Adults go all the way! ”

Wang Xiao ordered someone to carry the wooden box into the carriage, arched his hand to Shang Shiheng, and led his men to the south. Shang Shiheng looked at the back of Wang Xiaozhi and the others in the distance, and there was a sly look in his eyes.

At this time, a servant rode his horse from the direction of Tianjing New City, and rushed straight to Shang Shiheng not far before he suddenly reined in his horse. The servant turned over from his horse, took out a letter and presented it to Shang Shiheng, and said, "Childe, a letter from Yanjing Duan Gongzi!" Shang Shiheng's heart moved, and he hurriedly took the letter, opened the envelope, took out the stationery, unfolded it and looked at it, smiled slightly, and muttered: "Okay, good!" Duan Gongzi is really good at it, he actually turned these people against him, and the big thing went further! Then he ordered his entourage to lead the horse, and then turned over and galloped back to Tianjing New Town.

The gaze turned back to Goryeo. Musashi Xiong and Honda Tadakatsu led an army of 100,000 back to Kaijing, and Fujita Hiromichi and Nishino Oki welcomed the two into the hall. Of course, Musashi Xiong sat at the top, with Honda Tadashikatsu, Fujita Hiromichi, and Nishino Oki standing on either side below. Musashi Xiong glanced at Fujita Hiromichi and Nishino Chong, and asked, "Your Excellency the Great General has received your urgent military report, even if you send General Ben to lead an army of 100,000 to quell the Han people!" What is the situation of the Han Chinese? ”

After all, what happens next, let's see how it will be broken down next time.
