Song Dynasty

Chapter 316 Let's talk about the future ([-])
"It's impossible for me to stop fighting with you. However, I have an idea. After all, my teaching strength has suffered a serious loss, and it is not enough to annex the entire Jianghan. However, I want Ezhou. Come on In Ezhou, it will take at least half a year to expand the army, collect money and food, or dispatch officials. By then, the military envoys must have resolved the civil strife in the territory. At that time, we will fight another battle in the Yangtze River."

There was a faint light in Yang Yao's eyes, it was obvious that he had eaten Wang Shen to death.

"Haha, haha, Brother Yao is so calculating!" Wang Shen laughed loudly: "Do you think it is possible to let a certain general Ezhou be handed over with just one sentence? Brother Yao, brother Yao, you are now teaching Xinbai, The hearts of the people are in turmoil, and the number of soldiers is only a few thousand, so what qualifications do you have to make conditions with me?"

Yang Yao smiled softly: "Isn't it possible? The military envoys now have Zhang Yong and Cao Cheng's [-] troops attacking in the north, and Li Cheng in the south with ulterior motives. How can they still defend Ezhou? Even if you don't want to, I will It will also raise troops to go north to make a fortune."

Both of them looked at each other with smiles on their faces, their sharp and firm eyes seemed to collide with sparks in the air.

They are similar in age, and they each govern a huge area, and they have established a huge organization, with this group of brave soldiers who died for themselves.In this time and space without Yue Fei, he is the real dragon among people in this age group.

Both means and will are extremely strong.

After a long time, Wang Shen's eyes softened, he sighed, and said, "Brother Yao, this is the second time we meet. I heard that you are also a person who can lead an army to fight. Unfortunately, you have been restricted by many obstacles before, and you have never been able to rely on your own strength. My heart is on the battlefield. I really want to fight with you on the battlefield and fight with dignity."

It can be seen that this Yang Yao is really smelly and hard!If you want him to accept the peace talks and not lead the army northward to intervene in Jianghan, you have to use other methods.

Yang Yao also took back his stern words: "In every battle, we win by being right and surprising. In battles, the Sizhou Army is number one in the world. Some people say that it is even three points stronger than the old and small Western Army. I The Ming Cult is short of food and supplies, and its equipment is limited, if there is such a day, I am afraid that someone will not confront you head-on."

"That's right. You know that the priests are good at water warfare and mountain warfare. Naturally, you will not use your own weaknesses to attack the enemy's strengths. You would not be able to replace me, Wang Shen." Wang Shen let out a long breath, and said: "By the way, Brother Yao, I've heard it said. You were also a hot-blooded man back then. During the Jingkang period, Tokyo was besieged by Jurchens. You and Zhong Xiang organized Xiangyong to lead the army northward to King Qin, but unfortunately, you were intercepted by the local officials halfway. Come down. Just imagine, if you and Zhong Xiangzhen went to Tokyo back then, you might have served under the command of Grandpa Rulin Gongzong in the future, and you might not be able to become the leader of my Great Song Dynasty."

Yang Yao: "The past is over, so you don't need to say much. Yang will not sacrifice his life for the Zhao family and his corrupt officials, and you don't need to say much."

"I know, Brother Yao, you have misunderstood." Wang Shen nodded and said, "What I mean is, even if this world belongs to the people of the world, it belongs to my Han nationality and other ethnic groups in the south. The surname is Song. We have a common surname, we are called Yanhuang children. If, I said, if one day, the Jurchens come to Hunan, I don’t think your Yao brother will collude with the Jurchens just because you want to build Zhao’s official family. together?"

Yang Yao: "That's right, the people of the world, the people of the world, the Jurchens are cruel. If they come to Hunan, my Mingjiao brothers will naturally fight with them. There is nothing to say about that."

"Okay, as expected of the hot-blooded man Jing Kangnian who dared to lead the army to Kaifeng, Wang admires it." Wang Shen said: "That's right, Brother Yao wants to lead the army to fight Jianghan and Ezhou. This is a matter among us Han people. It's a civil war. But, have you ever thought that if you went to Hubei, you would be helping the Jurchens?"

Yang Yao frowned: "How to say?"

Wang Shen said: "If I'm not wrong, I'm afraid that Zhang Yong and Cao Cheng have surrendered to the puppet Qi. Moreover, according to reliable sources, Luoyang's Wushu has sent a large army to Xiangyang, ready to cooperate with Zhang and Cao. Combat. Brother Yao, if you send troops to attack my Wang Shen now, you are acting as a pawn for a tiger, and you are going to be a traitor!"

Yang Yao was taken aback, and hurriedly asked: "Is it true?"

"Of course it is true. Those who went to Xiangyang were Wanyan Xiyin and Yelu Mawu, the right supervisor of Jurchen Grand Marshal's Mansion. There were a total of [-] cavalry and [-] Khitan elite infantry. Not to mention the tens of thousands of rebels Cao Cheng had, Just dealing with these six thousand gold soldiers, I don’t have the slightest confidence.” Wang Shen looked at Yang Yao calmly: “Combined with Li Cheng who is fishing in troubled waters, this battle can be described as extremely dangerous for Wang. I have the determination to die. Not for the Zhao family, not for the Song Dynasty, but for our country and our nation, so that our children and grandchildren will not become slaves of foreign people. Wang Shen has already felt deeply in dealing with these great enemies Difficult, Brother Yao, with all due respect, the people you taught are facing so many powerful enemies, they are afraid that they will be eaten by them in an instant. Why don't you and I stop fighting now, and don't go to Ezhou, let Mr. Wang is fighting against foreign enemies in the front with peace of mind. Let Jiang Han be the buffer between you and the Jurchen? Brother Yao, I have said so much, so where do I go, please come up with an idea immediately."

Yang Yao replied without any pause, "Okay, Yang Yao promises you."

Wang Shen was taken aback: "Brother Yao really agreed to me?"

Yang Yao nodded: "Between you and me, as well as between Mingjiao and the imperial court, as Wang Junshi said, it is a civil war, a brotherly struggle between the same nation. No matter who wins or loses in the future, the world is still ours." But if the country falls into the hands of the Jurchens, our Han nation will perish, Yang Yao understands this truth."

He swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and said sharply: "However, I will not promise you that you will never cross Dongting Lake. When the battle between you and the Jurchen is resolved, and the winner is determined, my Mingjiao will go north. Between you and me The hatred is as deep as the sea, and there is no possibility of peace talks."

Wang Shen let out a long sigh of relief: "Okay, according to Brother Yao, we will talk about the future. We will not fight for the time being. When the Jurchen is repelled by me, we will see you on the battlefield. At that time, no one is polite. "

Yang Yao: "It's easy to say."

The two cupped their hands at the same time, and then burst out laughing.

After a while, the laughter was over, and Yang Yao asked: "Wang Junshi, in the battle of Lianyunzhai, many brothers from my teaching fell into your hands, but you don't know how they are now?"

Wang Shen: "Brother Yao must be asking Yang Qin and Huang Zuo."

Yang Yao nodded, this is the most capable general under him, and he is like a brother.

Wang Shen: "Don't worry, Yang Qin has voted for General Niu Gao and became his lieutenant general; as for Huang Zuo, he is doing military affairs under a certain command and will return to Anlu with me to fight against the Jin Army."

"Then I'm relieved." Yang Yao sighed and said, "It's a good thing that they can serve the country and the nation. Speaking of which, I really envy them."

Wang Shen said solemnly: "That is, it is the glory of my generation of men to seal the wolf and live in the Xuxu. Just knowing that fighting in a civil war is not a hero. Today, I had a deep talk with Brother Yao. I am very happy, so I will bid farewell. The future will be as high as the water. Long, see you on the battlefield."

"Wait, does the envoy want to leave like this?" Yang Yao said lightly.

Wang Shen raised his vigilance and put his hand on the handle of the knife: "Why, brother Yao still wants to keep me?"

Yang Yao shook his head: "If you and I fight like children on the street, how can it be proper? The military envoy can tell Mrs. Yang to stop fighting with just one sentence, it may not be too light, it must leave some benefits, otherwise, A certain cannot explain to the brothers in the church."

Wang Shen: "Tell me."

Yang Yao: "After you go north, you won't be able to walk quickly with so much food and grass in the base camp. Why don't you leave it to me, Yang Yao, to show your sincerity."

"Brother Yao, are you trying to blackmail me?" Wang Shen was annoyed in his heart, and his face looked ugly: "This is an enemy, so I absolutely refuse."

Indeed, as Yang Yao said.This time he led the army to Dingzhou from Anlu, and all the needs of the army were transported from their hometown by large ships.The supply lines are horribly long.Also because of the great consumption of the army, almost all of Anlu's autumn food this year was spent on this Hunan battle.Recently, something happened in the territory, and this supply line was also cut off.Naturally, the remaining food and grass could not be transported back.

Moreover, he was in a hurry to go home, so naturally he couldn't tolerate the slow delay of the troops on the road.He has already issued an order to order the soldiers to pack lightly and only take dry food for ten days.As for the food that cannot be taken away, it must be handed over to the prefect of Dingzhou.

Yes, after the headquarters of the Demon Cult was taken by Wang Shen, all the money and supplies in the Cult fell into Wang Shen's hands, and life was hard.The whole of Hunan has been corrupted, and it is difficult to get food.

Yang Yao nodded: "It can also be said to be extortion. If you want to make peace with me, you must show sincerity. However, I will not let you suffer. Aren't you going back to Anlu in a hurry? , but it is not so easy to go back to Jianghan. As far as I know, there are only two roads from Dingzhou to Anlu, water and land. The land road is from Dingzhou to Lizhou, and then to Jiangling and Fuzhou; as for the water road , it is much simpler, go directly to Yuezhou through Dongting Lake, and then cross the river. The land route is too slow, so I suggest that the military envoy go directly through Dongting Lake. If you can leave the unused food and grass, some will Ask your subordinates to open up the entire water area of ​​the Great Lake, and even give you some ships. If you don’t agree, you can either walk slowly on land, or fight me on the water.”

"If I got it right, the military envoy doesn't have a navy under his command. In fighting on the water, my divine religion has never been afraid of anyone."

Wang Shen never thought about the issue of water warfare.Just kidding, in the real history, the navy of the military god Yue Fei fought against Yang Yao in Dongting Lake, and suffered several defeats. It was not until the fifth year of Shaoxing that the Mani Rebellion was completely wiped out.Wang Shen didn't think that without the navy himself, he could defeat Yang Yao.

Moreover, when the birdman Li Cheng left Dingzhou, he took all the local boats with him. Without a boat, how could he fight Yang Yao?

He touched his nose with a wry smile: "Brother Yao, do you think I can refuse your kindness?"

Yang Yao nodded: "So, I would like to thank the military envoy."

After finishing speaking, he pointed to the sky and said: "Today, Mrs. Yang swore to the Great Ming Venerable in the sky to send Wang Jun as an envoy across the lake. Within a year, my divine sect will not send troops to Jianghan. If you violate this oath, the sky will come to you." Big thunder, blast me to death!"

This is already the scariest poison oath.

When Yang Yao left with his men by boat, Yue Yun and Niu Gao came galloping on horseback: "Military envoy, how are you?"

Wang Shen: "Okay, let's go home."
