Chapter 513, The Holy Maiden of Mingjiao,

In fact, it was not only Yang Jing, everyone present, even Ya Yu Guanyin, who knew Yang Peng best, did not regard Yang Peng's joke as nonsense. Yang Peng may not have realized at this moment that his current words are extremely influential in the eyes of people in the world, and no one will take Yang Peng's words as a joke. The ancients said, 'You have no jokes', and this sentence is not nonsense.

Yang Peng asked Ya Yu Guanyin: "Guanyin, when I leave here, is there any military information?" Ya Yu Guanyin shook his head and said, "No, there is no military situation in all aspects. ”

Yang Peng snorted, revealing a look of thought. Everyone looked at Yang Peng. Yang Peng thought for a moment, raised his head, and said, "Although we have reversed the situation to a certain extent, the situation is still unfavorable for us!" The Japanese army has already invaded Huaibei and Hebei, and the combined forces of Western Liao and Tubo have invaded the Hexi Corridor, and the enemy in front of us is still stronger than us, and it will not be easy for us to win the final victory in this great battle! The expressions of the people also became solemn.

Yang Peng stood up, walked to the middle of the hall, looked at the night outside the door and said calmly: "If you want to win a huge victory, you must pay a huge sacrifice!" A powerful empire does not appear out of thin air, let alone sketched by the pen of literati, but is made by the blood and lives of countless warriors! When the sacrifice is enough, a powerful empire will naturally rise from the ground in the mountain of blood corpses! When everyone heard this, their blood couldn't help but boil. Yang Peng glanced at everyone and said, "All of us, down from ourselves, must be ready to sacrifice and swear to fight to the death with the enemy!" Everyone couldn't help but shout in unison: "Swear to fight the enemy to the death!" ”

Yang Peng smiled: "The final victory must belong to us!" Everyone didn't know why, but when they heard Yang Peng's words and saw Yang Peng's smiling expression, the worry in their hearts disappeared, and they were replaced by incomparable confidence, firmly believing that under the leadership of King Yan, they would be able to defeat any enemy and break any difficulties and obstacles.

Yang Peng returned to the top and sat down, glanced at everyone, and said, "To deal with the next difficult situation, you must rest first, you all go down to rest." Everyone agreed together and withdrew from the main hall, only Ye Yu Guanyin and Yang Jiumei did not leave.

Ye Yu Guanyin looked at Yang Peng, and seeing that Yang Peng was still calm, he asked very curiously, "Big brother, aren't you worried at all?" Yang Peng smiled and said, "I'm worried that there is a fart!" Since it's useless, then don't worry about it! ”

The eyes of Ye Yu Guanyin and Yang Jiu Mei both showed great admiration, and Ye Yu Guanyin said admiringly: "Big brother, you are really amazing, even if you are a great hero like Emperor Taizong of the Liao Kingdom, you can't do this!" Yang Jiumei nodded sympathetically, and exclaimed: "The so-called Mount Tai collapsed in front of it and its color remained unchanged, this sentence is easy to say, in fact, how many people have been able to do it throughout the ages?" In the face of such a crisis, King Yan was not afraid at all, even the legendary Tang Sect and Song Ancestor were inferior by three points! Yang Peng said half-jokingly: "Maybe I'm so scared that I don't know how to be afraid!" The two girls smiled, and they all glanced at Yang Peng, and Ya Yu Guanyin said angrily: "You look like a hanger, how can you be scared?" Yang Peng laughed.

After laughing, he looked serious and said, "It's definitely a lie to say that you're not scared or nervous!" The current situation is still very unfavorable for our army! Hexi Corridor, Hebei, Huaibei, as well as our place, and Cao Jun's side, any mistake in any direction will cause fatal consequences for us Yanyun! ”

The two goddesses nodded solemnly, and Ya Yu Guanyin said, "Don't forget the Song people!" In this situation, there is a chance that the Song people will make a move! If they get involved, we'll be in a much harder position! Yang Peng and Yang Jiumei nodded, and Yang Jiumei said with some joy: "Fortunately, King Yan has thought of a way to buy grain from Jiangnan, otherwise our current situation will be even worse!" Then his heart moved, looked at the two of them, and said very suspiciously: "There is a very strange thing! The two looked at her.

Yang Jiumei continued: "According to the information we recently received from Yangzhou, the Jiangnan grain purchase operation is still going smoothly, why didn't the Song Imperial Court stop it? ”

Yang Peng said with a smile: "Jiangnan has had three consecutive bumper harvests, and private and official warehouses are piling up in various places, although the scale of our purchases is large, it is not enough to cause large fluctuations in grain prices, which is not easy to attract attention; Moreover, the purchase of grain and grass was carried out by Zhang Ping and his wife relying on the government-run industry, and it was difficult for the imperial court to find out the inside story. "Another thing, even if an official person finds out and investigates, but once they accept our bribe, they won't report anything." Therefore, it is not surprising that the imperial court has not taken any action so far. ”

Yang Jiumei smiled and said, "I didn't expect these corrupt officials to be quite useful!" Yang Peng laughed and said, "Of course, corrupt officials are very useful!" But this is only useful for others, and if it is under our hands, it will be very bad! The two women couldn't help but smile. Thinking of the current war, Ye Yu Guanyin couldn't help frowning, and asked Yang Peng, "Big brother, have you thought of a countermeasure?" ”

Yang Peng shook his head and said, "Not yet!" Then he stretched his waist, "I'm tired, let's get a good night's sleep first!" The two women looked at each other, and they couldn't help but admire him incomparably, and secretly said in their hearts: You can still sleep at this time?!

Yang Peng stood up and said to the two women, "You guys should rest early." After saying that, he turned the screen behind him and left the main hall. Ye Yu Guanyin and Yang Jiu Mei glanced at each other, smiled bitterly, Ye Yu Guanyin said: "I can't sleep, I'll go to Simen to inspect it." Yang Jiumei said: "I'll go to the ambulance home to take a look." The two women left the hall, went out of the door, said goodbye to each other, and went their separate ways.

Yang Jiumei came to the ambulance home. At this time, the ambulance home was still very busy, thousands of wounded soldiers were lying here, and many doctors and medical officers were treating their wounds; Countless women were busy washing bandages and clothes. A figure in the crowd was particularly eye-catching, it was a beautiful woman with a stunning fragrance, she was not an ordinary person, but Fang Jinzhi, the holy woman of Mingjiao. Fang Jinzhi was comforting the wounded soldiers, and when the wounded soldiers saw her, they would always have a look of admiration and piety, as if a devout Buddhist had seen Guanyin Bodhisattva. Now in Yanyun, Fang Jinzhi's status in the hearts of the military and civilians is indeed very similar to Guanyin Bodhisattva, and many people regard her as Guanyin Bodhisattva to worship sincerely. Under the deliberate promotion of Yanyun's official, now Mingjiao has become Yanyun's state religion, almost eighty percent of the people in Yanyun believe in Mingjiao, Yang Peng is not only the ruler of Yanyun, but also the leader of the people of Yanyun.

The teachings of Mingjiao have been greatly revised under the instruction of Yang Peng, among which the original teachings of Mingjiao are actually very little left, and quite a lot of Taoism, military and Legalist ideas have been added, and some excellent ideas of Confucianism have also been included, but those self-righteous ideas that are very ridiculous have all been eliminated.

Fang Jinzhi walked up to a wounded soldier, and the wounded soldier wanted to get up and salute, but was stopped by Fang Jinzhi. Fang Jinzhi sat down, took the medicine bowl from the medical officer, and personally fed the wounded soldier. The wounded soldier was so moved that he only felt that it was worth dying on the battlefield, and tears couldn't help but burst out of his eyes.

Fang Jinzhi finished feeding him the medicine and asked with a smile, "Does the wound hurt?" The soldier hurriedly shook his head: "It doesn't hurt, it doesn't hurt!" Fang Jinzhi said gently: "You are for the sect leader, you are injured for the light, this is the supreme glory!" The soldier looked very excited and nodded heavily.

Fang Jinzhi smiled and said, "You take care of your injuries!" You are the most loyal soldier of the Sect Master, and there are many great things waiting for you! The soldier's heart swelled with an incomparable impulse, and he just wanted to die on the battlefield immediately for Yang Peng and for the gentle and beautiful saint in front of him!

Fang Jinzhi stood up and saw Yang Jiumei coming over, so she greeted her, and Ying Ying bowed: "I've seen the princess!" Yang Jiumei hurriedly replied with a salute, and said half-jokingly: "I don't dare to be a saint's gift!" Fang Jinzhi smiled. Yang Jiumei glanced at the scene and asked, "Is there anything you need my help with?" Fang Jinzhi shook his head and bowed his head to Yang Jiumei: "Thank you, princess, but there is nothing here that needs the help of adults!" ”

The two walked into a small courtyard with no one side by side, and Yang Jiumei said, "King Yan is very grateful for everything the Holy Maiden has done!" Fang Jinzhi smiled and said: "King Yan doesn't have to be grateful to me, King Yan is the sect leader, I do my best for the sect leader, it's just what I should do!" Good thing I can help a little! Yang Jiumei smiled and said, "That's not a little busy!" If it weren't for the Holy Maiden who stabilized people's hearts, I really don't know how much trouble Xiao Yu and Duan Yao would have caused when they made trouble! King Yan often asks you, when are you going to meet King Yan? ”

Fang Jinzhi smiled indifferently and said, "Let's talk about it after this big battle is over." King Yan must be very busy now, so I'd better not bother him. Yang Jiumei said angrily: "He's not busy!" You don't know, he's asleep now! Fang Jinzhi was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "King Yan is really very human, he can still sleep at this time!" Yang Jiumei nodded approvingly, "Who said it wasn't!" Then he frowned, revealing a deep sense of melancholy.

Fang Jinzhi saw Yang Jiumei's expression and asked, "Is the princess worried about the current war?" ”

Yang Jiumei frowned and nodded, sighed, raised her head, looked at the stars in the night sky, and said worriedly: "Although our army has won two battles in a row, the current situation has not changed!" Retracted his gaze, looked at Fang Jinzhi, and said, "Not only is the situation in Yanjing still unfavorable to our army, but from the perspective of the situation in the whole world, it is also very unfavorable for our army!" Fang Jinzhi said: "I heard that the Japanese are fighting fiercely in Huaibei, Hebei, and I also heard that Tubo and Western Liao have invaded the Hexi Corridor?" ”

Yang Jiumei frowned and nodded, "Not only that, I'm worried that the Song Kingdom in the south is very likely to send troops!" Fang Jinzhi nodded, looking very calm. Yang Jiumei asked puzzledly, "Aren't you worried at all?" Fang Jinzhi smiled, it looked like the moonlight shining on the water waves, and Yang Jiumei, who was also a woman, couldn't help but lose her mind for a while. Fang Jinzhi said: "I don't have the ability to pay attention to these things, even if I worry about death, it's useless, so why worry!" Yang Jiumei smiled and said: "I am familiar with what you said, and King Yan often says similar words. Fang Jinzhi smiled, lowered his head, reached out and stroked the hair on his sideburns, and said, "Although I don't know about military and political affairs, I believe that no difficulty can defeat King Yan!" I think that the current situation is critical, just like dark clouds pouring rain, and the king of Yan is the sun, and the sun will always penetrate the dark clouds! ”

When Yang Jiumei heard this, the haze in her heart couldn't help but dissipate a lot, and said with a smile: "After listening to your words, my mood is much better!" ”

Fang Jinzhi smiled and said: "The blade of the sword is sharpened, and if King Yan wants to finally become a generation of heroes who reign over the world, how can it be possible without experiencing hardships and obstacles!" Yang Jiumei nodded thoughtfully.

Fang Jinzhi remembered something and asked, "I heard that there was a big victory tonight and wiped out fifty or sixty thousand Khitan troops, what happened?" Yang Jiumei smiled and said: "Ye Hu Cheng pretended to lead the army to raid Juyong Pass, but in fact, he set up an ambush circle on the way, just waiting for our army to enter the ambush circle so that it could be encircled and annihilated in one fell swoop!" However, his attempt was seen by the King of Yan, so the King of Yan deliberately led the army out of the city after nightfall, but the army did not rush to support Juyong Pass as Yeyu Hucheng wished, but divided into two parts, one raided the Khitan army camp, and the other was ambushed between the Khitan army camp and Xiangshan. Yelu Hucheng was ambushed in Xiangshan for a long time, waiting for our army to arrive, and received an urgent report that the military camp was being raided, so he was naturally surprised, and then quickly led the army to leave Xiangshan and rush back to support, so he entered the ambush circle of our army. The ambush soldiers led by King Yan came out on all sides, and Yeyu Tiger City was caught off guard, and naturally suffered a big defeat! It's a pity that it's night, and the line of sight is not good, otherwise, the loss of the Khitan army will definitely not be more than these fifty or sixty thousand! ”

Fang Jinzhi couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "King Yan's clever calculation, it's really unpredictable!" ”

Yang Jiumei nodded sympathetically, and said: "King Yan said that although there are only 10,000 defenders in Juyong Pass, with the dangerous location and artillery, it is no problem to defend it for ten days and half a month, and Yanjing can send 20,000 war cavalry to Juyong Pass to harass the Khitan army that is tackling the key problems, and it will be difficult for the Khitan army to have any hope of capturing Juyong Pass, and it will be useless for the Khitan army to attack there except for distracting energy, increasing casualties and demoralizing." The veteran general of the battlefield in Yeyu Tiger City, naturally he can also see this, but he still divides his troops to attack Juyong Pass with great fanfare, and he is a drunkard who does not mean to drink, but to lure our army to reinforce, and the purpose of luring our army reinforcements is to ambush reinforcements in the middle of the road. King Yan deduced such a result, so he made targeted arrangements, and then won another battle! ”

Fang Jinzhi was full of admiration, and couldn't help but say: "If my father had half the courage of King Yan, he would not be defeated!" "The father emperor in Fang Jinzhi's mouth is naturally the leader of the Ming Sect who was defeated and killed.

Ye Hu Cheng waited anxiously for several days, and the fine work that had been infiltrated into the city finally returned, only to see him report to Ye Hu Cheng with an excited face: "King Qiyu, there are indeed forces against King Yan in Yanjing City, and his subordinates have already contacted them!" ”

Yelu Hucheng was overjoyed, and asked urgently: "Who is the other party, is it reliable?" ”

"The other party's name is Duan Yang, and he is the younger brother of Duan Yao, the leader of the Yanjing rebellion this time. Ye Yu Hucheng frowned and asked, "Since he is Duan Yao's own brother, why didn't Yang Peng arrest him?" Is he really Duan Yao's own brother? "That's absolutely certain! The subordinates have learned from the side that Duan Yang is indeed Duan Yao's younger brother. The reason why he was not implicated this time was because Duan Yang had already left the Duan family and became a businessman, and this time he did not participate in his father's and brother's conspiracy, so he was not arrested and imprisoned for the time being. However, Duan Yang was terrified, always worried that he would finally be doomed because of his father's and brother's affairs, so he was very much looking forward to our Great Liao Army being able to defeat the Yanyun Army and occupy Yanjing as soon as possible! ”

Yelu Hucheng nodded and thought, "This is also human nature. Then he looked at Xizuo and asked, "Have you talked to this Duan Yang?" Xizuo nodded and said: "The subordinates have already talked to him, and he is very willing to help our Daliao army, but the subordinates dare not make decisions about this matter, so they did not discuss the details with him." ”

Ye Hu Cheng asked, "What is the strength of this Duan Yang?" "Returning to the king, he originally had hundreds of guards in his hands, as well as more than 100 families, in addition, in recent days, he has collected nearly a thousand people who have been scattered by his father's and brother's uprising."

Yelu Hucheng was very happy and said, "More than a thousand people, if you act properly, you should be able to capture a city gate in one fell swoop!" Zheng Shilong was about to speak, but Han Chang preemptively said: "King, with the help of this amazing army, we will definitely be able to capture Yanjing City in one fell swoop!" Yeron Tiger City nodded approvingly. Han Chang continued: "My subordinates thought that this matter should be carried out as soon as possible, so as not to have too many dreams at night!" Zheng Shilong hurriedly agreed.

Ye Hu Cheng thought for a moment, untied the short knife at his waist, walked to Hosaku, handed the short knife to him, and ordered: "You take my short knife and sneak into the city again, and tell that Duan Yang to attack the West City Gate at midnight tomorrow." He stretched out his hands, bowed down to take the short knife, and promised. Ye Hu Cheng said again: "Tell Duan Yang to ask them to find a way to prepare Yan Yun's military uniform, approach the city gate in the name of patrolling, and then attack suddenly." If there is gunpowder, prepare more gunpowder, if there is no gunpowder, prepare more fire oil cans, and once attacked, use gunpowder and fire oil canisters to severely damage Yan Yunjun! Yan Yunjun is brave and good at fighting, and must not be careless! ”

He bowed down and agreed, and then said: "At present, there are more than 100,000 militiamen in Yanjing City to help defend the city, and more than 100,000 people are undertaking the logistics tasks of the Yanyun Army. They openly carry swords into the streets, and others only think that they are civilian soldiers, and they will not suspect them. ”

Yelu Hucheng was very happy and said, "That's great, God really helps me!" You sneaked back to Yanjing overnight and did what I commanded. After you cooperated with Duan Yang's action and successfully captured the city gate, you immediately sent an arrow message, and the king immediately led a large army into Yanjing! You also have to tell him that after the matter is completed, this king will appoint him to stay in Yanjing and never break his word! He made a promise, and then left in a hurry.

The next night, in the backyard of Duan Yang's house, more than a thousand people gathered, all dressed in people's clothes and holding various weapons in their hands. In front of these people, there were two people, one of them was very young, in his early twenties, handsome, dressed in leather armor, with a long sword hanging from his waist, his eyebrows were furrowed, and his expression was solemn, this person was Duan Yao's younger brother who was arrested for rebellion before, Duan Yang; And the person next to Duan Yang is the Khitan who previously reported back to Yelu Tiger City, this is a young man with an ordinary appearance but a strong temperament, named Hui Li No, a pro-soldier officer in Yelu Tiger City, it can be said that he is both wise and brave.

Duan Yang looked up at the sky, at this time, the bright moon was hanging high in the sky, and it was almost midnight. Duan Yang turned his head and asked if he returned the salute: "General, the agreement is at midnight, there is no mistake, right?" He returned the salute without smiling: "Duan Gongzi, don't be nervous. The time is midnight, and you can't go wrong. ”

Bang bang, bang! Outside there was a sudden sound of a watch, and it was already midnight. In return, he immediately said to Duan Yang: "Duan Gongzi, it's time to act!" Duan Yang nodded, waved his hand at his subordinates, and raised his voice: "The time has come to achieve great success, follow me!" Immediately, he returned the salute and led more than a thousand of his men to rush out of the gate and rush towards the west gate. Although it was midnight at this time, the whole city was not quiet, there were patrolling militias everywhere, busy people everywhere, Duan Yang and more than 1,000 people marched on the street, but it was not eye-catching.

Two quarters of an hour later, the gates were in sight. I couldn't help but get nervous in return. At this moment, more than a dozen Yan Yun troops suddenly came in front, and the leader was the fierce general Yang Jing. Duan Yang and Hui Li were all shocked when they saw Yang Jing, their hearts couldn't help pounding, they hurriedly lowered their heads, and led their subordinates to speed up their pace and walk forward, hoping to miss Yang Jing as soon as possible and not cause anything to happen.

The two sides staggered. Yang Jing suddenly reined in his horse, turned his head and shouted, "Stop!" Everyone stopped, and many of them raised their hearts to their throats, and they secretly held the handle of their knives in return, preparing to attack and kill the big black man if the situation was not right. Duan Yang and Hui Li did not turn their heads, and at this time, Yang Jing had already turned his horse's head and stepped forward. Duan Yang ran to Yang Jing and bowed: "Xiaomin to meet General Yang!" ”

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