Although Jin Lian did not see what happened in Wala with his own eyes.
However, based on Yang Jie's description, he has basically deduced the entire process.
Before arriving in Oara, Yang Jie first formed a cavalry team under the guise of the Turgut tribe, and then secretly dismissed it after arriving at the Turgut tribe.
The most critical thing among them is the batch of weapons from the Tumote Department that Yang Jie found.
Through these weapons, we must first get to the bottom of it and focus on the Tumote Department.
Although it is said that Ye Xian was the Mongolian Grand Master first, but now that Oara and Tatar are at war, the Tumut tribe, as one of the main forces, will definitely not have contact with Ye Xian.
Therefore, if you want to find out the details of this cavalry, you can only rely on your own scouts. In addition, during the war between the two sides, the number of soldiers increased and decreased frequently. Therefore, in a short time, you want to find out the details of this cavalry.
Source, very difficult.
However, although it is difficult to find out the details of this cavalry, it is relatively easy to just find out whether a thousand cavalrymen have returned to the Tumote tribe.
As they speculated, Ye Xian's temperament changed drastically after the battle in Shawo. Although the people around him were always testing and being wary of everything, if he could not find out the whereabouts of this cavalry, he would never give up.
Under Yang Jie's misguidance, he focused all his attention on the Tumote Department, and naturally there could be no results.
So under this situation, it seemed to Ye Xian that Yang Jie brought an elite Tatar cavalry to the Torgut tribe and wanted to join forces with Bodu to rebel.
Then, Bodu reported to him to prove his loyalty, but the cavalry under Yang Jie mysteriously disappeared.
No trace could be found, nor did he return to the Tumut tribe.
It is very possible that this is a trap set by Yang Jie and a way for Yang Jie to sow discord between him and Bodu.
However, for Ye Xian, even if it might be a trap, he still couldn't ignore it.
Because, for Ye Xian now, any force that may threaten him must be nipped in the cradle.
As a result, Bodu became the biggest suspect.
He has extensive connections within Oara, and he has a large tribe like Torgut in his hands, as well as many small tribes under his control. It is not difficult to hide the whereabouts of this cavalry, or in other words, it may only be the Bor.
All, can have such ability.
This is a conspiracy and a conspiracy!
It hits people's hearts directly and there is no way to avoid it!
"Yes, that's exactly what it is..."
Yang Jie sighed and said.
"Ye Xian was indeed suspicious at the time, but in the end, he could not defeat the fear of Bodu in his heart. Therefore, he put me under house arrest outside the old camp and sent his own soldiers to guard me. On the other hand, he ordered Bodu to be responsible for communicating with the Ming Dynasty.
Contact, while he observes secretly."
"During house arrest, he tested me in many ways to find traces of the cavalry, but I never told him. Finally, we reached a deal. He let me return to Beijing, and I told him the location of the cavalry."
He said this calmly, but Jin Lian was keenly aware of something wrong. His eyes fell on Yang Jie in front of him, and his tone was a little inexplicable, and he said.
"So, the brocade box that was taken away by the people who were sent first outside Yanghekou was where the so-called cavalry was located?"
When asking this question, Jin Lian stared at Yang Jie's face closely.
However, there was nothing unusual about Yang Jie. He nodded calmly and said.
"Exactly, rather than killing me, what I want to know more is where this cavalry is. After all, such a cavalry hidden in the dark will threaten his safety at all times."
"But the cavalry has been dismissed!"
Jin Lian did not stop there, but asked directly.
"So, you are lying!"
Yang Jie was silent for a moment and said.
"Yes, I'm lying to him!"
Jin Lian's eyes were slightly cold, with a solemn power, and his voice was calm.
"Did he believe it?"
"He believed it!"
"Or, he is just unwilling to take risks, so he is willing to believe it!"
"Aren't you afraid that he will kill you if he finds out?"
"Afraid, but there was no other choice at the time, and he was too arrogant. He felt that he could always control me."
"Where's the evidence?"
The north wind blows by, blowing clothes and flying, and the atmosphere on the city wall is a bit cold.
This time, Yang Jie pondered for a long time before speaking.
"General Guo can testify!"
"At that time, I also sent five hundred of my own bodyguards, which was called an escort, but in reality it was a hostage. If I still couldn't find out the location of the cavalry before arriving in Yanghe, then they would kill me, and they would also first
My personal guards are all elite, and there is no way I can survive with just the people around me."
"Because of this, I took the risk to send a message to General Guo and asked him to secretly set up an ambush. The reason is that there is nothing in the brocade box. Once the leader of the bodyguards gets the brocade box and opens it for inspection, he must
He would kill me on the spot."
After finishing these words, Jin Lian remained silent.
After a moment, he turned around and looked at the snowflakes flying in the distance. The voice seemed to come from afar and said.
"The military report mentioned this time that the reason why Ala Zhiyuan rebelled against Ye Xian was that Ye Xian claimed that he had obtained an imperial edict, written by His Majesty himself, and the content was to expand the scale of mutual trade with Wala and to confer the title of Bodu at the same time.
Become the King of Shunyi, and Xu Wala will increase the number of tribute envoys."
"With this imperial edict, he first summoned all the ministries to prepare to deal with Bodu, and asked why the Ming Dynasty had betrayed his faith. As a result, Ala Zhiyuan pointed out on the spot that the imperial edict was false, and that he had forged it first to eliminate dissidents, and killed him on the spot.
.”
"Does Mr. Yang know about this matter?"
"Know."
Yang Jie's answer was short and direct.
Jin Lian did not turn around, and his voice remained calm.
"What do you think?"
"Since you want to rebel, you naturally have to find a reason."
After pondering for a moment, Yang Jie said.
"After all, Ye Xian has been in charge of various tribes in Oara for many years. Although his methods are cruel, he still has many supporters. Ala Zhiyuan rashly attacked and killed him, firstly, he must be justified, and secondly, he must be able to use his strength."
"To frame him falsely, he also forged an imperial edict first. It could not only accuse him of excluding dissidents and provoking the Ming Dynasty, but also win the favor of the Ming Dynasty. If he loses in the subsequent struggle, he can also defect to the Ming Dynasty again. Seeing that he is so protective
For the sake of Ming Dynasty, the imperial court must show some kindness."
This explanation is quite reasonable.
However, Jin Lian still did not stop asking.
"So, that imperial edict was really forged in order to kill Bodu?"
In contrast, Yang Jie responded calmly.
"Perhaps, or perhaps it is a rumor spread by Ala Zhiyuan, in order to make his actions more convincing to the public. It is also possible that Bodu is manipulating everything behind the scenes."
"Since Ye Xian imprisoned him, it means that he was already wary of him, so he took the initiative and created an opportunity to kill Ye Xian. These are all possible. After all, I had already left Wala when the incident happened, so the details need to be
Keep checking."
This time, Jin Lian finally turned around. He looked up at Yang Jie's young face, sighed deeply and said.
"It's best, just keep talking..."
"yes!"
Yang Jie bowed his hands in greeting with a calm face.
However, no one noticed that his palms were already covered with sweat.
After calming down for a while, Yang Jie continued.
"When the official first arrived at the Torgut tribe, he made two preparations. If Bodu is willing to join forces, everything will be fine. If he is not willing, then he will be forced to rebel."
"As expected, he was suspicious of the 'existence' of this cavalry. After the official left, he imprisoned Bedu to wait for the official's reply to him."
"However, this cavalry has been demobilized a long time ago, so Bodu naturally can't argue. If there is indeed a cavalry in Xiaguan's brocade box, then it can be proven that Bodu has joined forces with Xiaguan with evil intentions. If there is no
, then Ye Xian will only feel that Bodu is deceiving him."
"So, no matter what the official's reply is to Ye Xian, he will not escape death."
"That's why he had to take the risk."
Yang Jie had obviously organized these words in his mind a long time ago, and when he spoke them now, he was quite coherent.
"Bodu is a smart man. He may not really have any hidden objections in his heart, but it's just because he doesn't have a chance."
"So, before the official left, in addition to forcing him into a desperate situation, he also created an excellent opportunity for him!"
"what chance?"
Jin Lian's expression also relaxed at this moment, but his eyes remained unchanged and he asked.
"You have the chance to kill first if you can successfully kill him!" Yang Jie said.
"The reason why Ye Xian is able to command various tribes and take life and death is due to his control over the nobles of various tribes, and the most powerful means for him to control the nobles of various tribes is the absolutely loyal and battle-experienced personal guard team around him."
"Although this team only has more than 2,000 people, it is extremely powerful. With them guarding Ye Xian, it will be difficult to kill Ye Xian."
"Although he was very harsh on the nobles after the First World War in Shawo, his prestige in the army has not been reduced. Therefore, as long as he has time to react, Ala Zhiyuan and others will have no power to resist.
.”
"Ye imprisoned Bodu first to eliminate hidden dangers, but it was this move that put him in danger."
"Bodu holds a high position in Wala, so to imprison him, ordinary Wala soldiers must not be used. We can rest assured that we only have our own personal guards. In addition, Bodu also has his own personal guards.
Therefore, in order to prevent Bodu from resisting, it is necessary to first use most of the personal guards around him to guard Bodu."
"In addition, he also sent five hundred people to 'escort' me back to the Ming Dynasty. This team was almost destroyed by General Guo. As a result, the escort strength around him was reduced to the lowest point.
"
"So, you're betting that these people won't miss this opportunity?"
Jin Lian frowned and asked.
Yang Jie nodded slightly and said.
"This opportunity is unique!"
"The nobles in Bodu, or in other words, Wala, who are dissatisfied with Ye Xian, must be able to realize that if they want to kill Ye Xian, this is the only chance!"
"What's more, Bodu has been forced into a desperate situation. As long as he doesn't want to sit still and wait for death, he will definitely give it a go."
"Judging from the current situation, it is obvious that Xia Guan's guess is correct, and Bodu did take action..."
The snow fell heavier and heavier, covering everyone's shoulders with white, but no one brushed it away.
Jin Lian looked at Yang Jie steadily, with a complex expression on his face. After a while, he turned to Yang Hong and said with some emotion in his voice.
"Using people's hearts as a chess piece, plotting plans and calculating all parties, Yang Hou, this young master of yours is really not an easy person!"
Yang Hong saw everything that happened just now, but he never said a word. Until this moment, when he felt Jin Lian's gaze, he spoke.
"Governor Jin is so complimentary. My son is young, reckless, and behaves poorly. It is unavoidable. I would like to ask Governor Jin to keep in mind that he is dedicated to serving the country and take more care of him."
There was a hint of pleading in these words. Considering Yang Hong's status, such a gesture was a bit humble.
Jin Lian sighed and said.
"Well, my doubts have been cleared, but I have nothing to ask. This matter started because of Mr. Yang. All subsequent matters will still be handled by Mr. Yang. Now that the army has retreated, I should also take care of this matter.
The details are presented to His Majesty in a written form, which can be considered as good news to the imperial court."
After saying that, Jin Lian shook the snow off his shoulders, bowed his hands to Yang Hong, and left.
The snow was falling, and Yang Hong and Yang Jie just stood there, neither father nor son speaking.
After a moment, Yang Xin turned around again, stood behind Yang Hong, and whispered.
"Uncle, Governor Jin is gone."
Yang Hong nodded lightly. The biting north wind hit him, and he couldn't help coughing a few more times. This made Yang Jie and Yang Xin standing behind him couldn't help showing a hint of worry. However, the two
They looked at each other, but they both agreed silently.
After a moment, Yang Hong's voice sounded, but it was not addressed to Yang Jie, but to Yang Xin.
"Xin'er, what happened here is that you come with me back to the capital. Before I come this time, His Majesty has specifically allowed Neng'er to return to the capital to celebrate the New Year. It's been a long time since you brothers got together to watch the New Year..."
Yang Xin was stunned when he heard this, but he still nodded and said.
"That's fine."
After the words fell, a vague sigh sounded in his ears, and then Yang Hong spoke again.
"Neng'er wrote a letter last time, saying that although Guangxi has been pacified, there are still rebellions from time to time. Liu Pu is old and not enterprising enough. He always thinks about maintaining the status quo. I think your Majesty is slightly dissatisfied with this. He returns to Beijing this time.
, I will hand you a memorial, and after the New Year, you and Neng'er can go to Guangxi to guard the country."
"ah?"
After saying this, both Yang Xin and Yang Jie felt surprised, but Yang Xin just pondered for a moment and then said.
"Listen to uncle's arrangements!"
"Father……"
However, Yang Xin did not object, but a trace of guilt flashed in Yang Jie's eyes, and he couldn't help but speak, wanting to say something.
However, just when he opened his mouth, Yang Xin came over with a sharp look, causing Yang Jie to stop talking.
Immediately afterwards, Yang Xin spoke.
"Uncle, don't worry. My nephew is the son of the Yang family, and he knows that he will get his fame from his horse. Now that Tatar and Oara are in civil strife one after another, and the border has been stabilized, my nephew is going to the southeast to quell the rebellion in order to reward his ambition!"
Yang Xin spoke these words with great energy and determination.
However, the more he behaved like this, the more guilty Yang Jie looked on the side, and his voice became unusually low, like a child who had made a mistake.
"Brother..."
Yang Xin shook his head, with a warm expression on his face. Looking at Yang Jie, he gently stretched out his hand, brushed the snowflakes off Yang Jie's shoulders, and said.
"You and I, brothers, needless to say, this time your grassland group has surpassed my elder brother who has been guarding the border for decades. I am very proud to have a younger brother like you!"
Snowflakes are falling and a cold wind is blowing.
Yang Jie raised his head and met Yang Xin's eyes. The snow was falling harder and harder, but no matter how heavy the snow was, it could not hide the faint watery feeling in Yang Jie's eyes at this moment.
After a moment, Yang Jie nodded heavily and said nothing.
Yang Hong turned around, looked at the two people in front of him, and sighed softly. His eyes were complicated, filled with relief and happiness, but at the same time, there was also a hint of sadness and worry.
However, in the end, he said nothing, but took a deep look at the snow-covered Xuanfu city wall, then turned and left...
