Chapter 4 Defending the North and Attacking the South (2)
Wang Anshi let out a long sigh and said: "Marquis Yun, you have finally become famous. Even your disciples can fight out among thousands of troops and become the number one scholar. I feel inferior to you!"
Hearing Wang Anshi's words, Wen Yanbo was so frightened that he almost fell off his chair. He held on to the armrest of the chair and stared at Yun Zheng, waiting for his answer.
Yun Zheng covered his mouth and nose with the file, seeming a little proud and also a little confused.
Wang Anshi continued: "First the Penglai Islands, then the South China Sea Zhuyu, and now even the top disciples of our sect have come out. What Lord Yun has planned is huge!"
"What are the three Penglai Islands and what are the pearls and jade in the South China Sea? Tell me clearly!" Wen Yanbo roared at Wang Anshi, who was also in the Yunzheng military camp. Why did Wang Anshi always know more than he did?
Wang Anshi didn't care about Wen Yanbo's bad attitude and continued to look at Yun Zheng and said: "Why did Marquis Yun try so hard to reverse the national policy of the Song Dynasty?"
Yun Zheng stood up and walked a few steps on the ground, then stood in front of Wang Anshi and said: "I am stingy, I have always been!
Why am I the only one who needs to flee overseas among the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty? Why should I be the only one who needs to make sacrifices for the Song Dynasty?"
Wen Yanbo trembled with his lips and said, "After all, Marquis Yun is unwilling to go to sea?"
Yun Zheng said disdainfully: "Of course I will go to the sea, who has time to huddle together with you and fight in a nest?
Since I am destined to go to the sea, why should I go alone? It would be more lively if we all go to the sea together, lest I float alone on the sea and cannot even see anyone. Who will I rob?
Going to sea has been my dream since I was a child. In order to realize this dream, I even learned to swim, how to control a ship, and how to draw my pirate flag!
Every teenager has a beautiful dream. Some people are willing to sacrifice their lives in order to realize their childhood dreams. I just lost a little glory and wealth, so what's the big deal?
I hope that when I am sailing alone on the sea, I can see white sails elsewhere. In that case, I will pull up my pirate flag, put on my blindfold, stand barefoot on the deck and beat my chest.
Shouting, ordering them to lower their sails and surrender, otherwise they will not be left alive!"
Wen Yanbo didn't know where he got the strength, he rushed forward, grabbed Yun Zheng's chest and roared: "This is related to the Song Dynasty for ten thousand years, how can you be so childish? I won't let you succeed!"
Yun Zheng looked at Wen Yanbo with pity and said with a smile: "Mr. Wen, your enemy this time is not me, but a kind of enemy called *.
My husband said that since the emergence of human beings, what has driven us all the way to today is actually this thing called sex.
As long as the Communist Party exists, we will keep rolling forward. Whoever stands in the way will be crushed into pulp by the huge wheel of the Communist Party. How can you, Wen Yanbo, be an exception?"
"I will make sure that the people of the Song Dynasty are not allowed to go to the sea!"
Yun Zheng laughed loudly and said: "Mr. Wen, be quiet and don't say things that you can't do. Even if you can do it, the consequences will be unbearable for you.
** is like water, it can only be channeled but not blocked. Once you issue a sea ban, it will only increase the desire of the people of the Song Dynasty to go to sea to have a look. There is a truth since ancient times, that is, as long as it is something prohibited by the emperor,
Usually it is something that can make people rich overnight.
When the sea is full of pirates, that will be the nightmare of the Song Dynasty!"
Wang Anshi helped the trembling Wen Yanbo back and looked at Yun Zheng with a bitter smile: "Marquis Yun, why are you teasing Wen Gong?
You have never been a vicious person. Now I want to know why you did this?
I don’t believe that you will harm this powerful empire that you have supported personally. Today, 30% of the country’s taxes come from overseas trade. Not to mention that Duke Wen cannot issue a sea ban, and even His Majesty will not issue such a sea ban.
Overseas trade has become the most important source of wealth in the Song Dynasty. No one will agree with the decision not to go to sea.
Anyway, let’s talk openly today, so let’s make it clear. I have been in charge of the Song Dynasty Bank for many years, so I naturally know how wealthy the maritime merchants are. You said that as long as we go to the sea, there will be countless wealth waiting for us to grab. Is it true?
?”
Yun Zheng sat down and took a sip of water. He first bowed his hands to Wen Yanbo to express his apology, and then sighed and said: "I have become a figure hated by gods and ghosts in the Song Dynasty, although it is not me who has reached this stage.
The original intention was forced out by you step by step.
To be honest, I really don't like you very much, but I like the mountains and rivers here, the people here, and the soldiers who followed me in the north and south.
Therefore, my life is tightly controlled by you, so for them I have no choice but to go overseas."
Wen Yanbo gasped and said: "Yun Zheng, you are a rare talent, you are a famous general who comes once in a thousand years, and you are a famous minister who can make plans for the world. These words are by no means a compliment, even if they are your enemies
, we must also admit your peerless talent. No matter how much people hate you, they have to admit that the Song Dynasty cannot do without you.
This is the reason why you have made countless mistakes over the years and are still able to hold the most important military power in our Song Dynasty. In summary, you have eight thousand personal soldiers, and this alone is enough to destroy your three clans.
But, you have also seen that a loyal servant like Chen Lin, a person like me who cannot bear to see the rise of military ministers, and a humble person like Wang Jiefu have all seen what you did in the army. Have any of us ever said that?
Not a word?
Both the late emperor and your majesty know this. As early as the eighth year of Qingli, Jiaziying became your personal soldier. Even when you were at your lowest after being abandoned by Bao Zheng, your majesty did not deprive you of it.
this right.
Don’t you know how painful it is for us to make this decision?
Do you know the pain you have brought to Da Song?"
Yun Zheng's eyes immediately widened, and he looked at Wen Yanbo and said: "When I was a boy, I quelled the Yuanshan bandits for the Song Dynasty, and got rid of the great enemy of the Tubo Eagle Tribe, in order to open up a path for the people of Sichuan.
In the business of selling silk, I went to Qingtang at the risk of death, and finally killed Li Yuanhao after a narrow escape.
In order to get rid of Nong Zhigao, I did not hesitate to cross the bad water in March and went to Lingnan. After many battles, Lingnan was pacified. For the sake of the empty treasury of the Song Dynasty, I did not hesitate to trek through the wild jungle, in extreme exhaustion.
Capturing the Emperor of Jiaozhi alive and bringing his treasury back to the Song Dynasty paved the way for the revival of the Song Dynasty.
When Wu Zang's army raided Qinzhou, I was ordered to run the frontier village in times of crisis. I killed the Xixia general Zhang Zhi at the Rock Slope Formation. In the battle for Qingtang, I fought bloody battles with the soldiers and was hit by six arrows.
Without retreating.
As early as the first time I went to Qingtang, I had made friends with a warrior like Qingyi Jiegizhang. In order to make Qingtang forever the horse herding land of the Song Dynasty, I, Yun Zheng, personally forced my best friend to death, and even more
He placed his statue in the Wucheng Hall as a villain to let the world know that Yunzheng played a disgraceful role in the Battle of Qingtang.
After paying so much, no one cheered for me after I returned to the capital. Some people only had a decree to read behind closed doors. I laughed it off. When I returned home, in order not to violate the imperial decree, I, Yun Zheng, built a wooden house on the wall, and worked with Di Qing every day.
I worked hard in the border village of Song Dynasty.
Haha, the beast army of the Liao Kingdom invaded, corpses were everywhere outside Tang County, and the heads on the capital were weeping in the heavy rain. It was Yun Zheng who boldly sent out troops to defeat Guo Hengchuan, beheaded the Yelv clan in Tang County, and used his
The human head is used as a memorial to the soul of my great Song Dynasty who died in vain.
Do you know that when I was outside the city of Tang County, I held in my arms two women from the Song Dynasty who had been raped by people like you who were sent to the beast army, and begged them to marry me, but what I got was two cold corpses.
Wen Yanbo, do you know how much I, Yun Zheng, hated you all at that time? I wish I could hold a three-foot long sword and kill you one by one in that high hall!
Pingxing Taihui Alliance, you have chosen peace. Even though I have all kinds of anger in my heart, I can only smile with you. Just when I kept forbearing, Bao Zheng, the civil servant of the Song Dynasty whom I respected most, did not hesitate to give me a heavy blow with his own life.
one strike!
Even so, when I returned to my hometown, I ostensibly attached myself to the mountains and rivers, but secretly I trained a usable army for the Song Dynasty royal family. I braved the disdain of the world and not only regained the grasslands of western Yunnan, but also
Sending the army taught the arrogant Dali Kingdom a profound lesson.
As a result, I still did not receive the cheers of the people of the Song Dynasty, but I was criticized by the whole world for killing several monks from enemy countries!
Wen Yanbo, is there such a truth in the world? Is there anyone like me, Yun Zheng, who has done everything he can for this country regardless of his own honor and disgrace?" (To be continued)
