His hair was messy, his body was covered in blood, his nose was bruised and his face was swollen.
In the eyes of General Youyan, Yang Lin, the Duke of Yan State, has always had the demeanor of a superior person. Now the contrast is so great that people can't help but feel a sense of sadness and anger.
The tragedy of a hero's end, and the melancholy of things hurting others, the imperial court's messenger Xiaoqi made it clear that Youyan's generals from top to bottom were committed to meritorious deeds.
Making meritorious service for a crime? What a joke! What crime do we have? Who did we risk our lives to fight against the Jurchen Tatars in Youyan? Who are we defending? A mere 50,000 Jurchen Tatars turned the Central Plains upside down. We held on to twenty people in Youyan.
The tens of thousands of Jurchens and their vassal army deserved death.
Military generals in the Song Dynasty have always been a group that was suppressed and discriminated against by civilian officials. Even so, there was an unprecedented humiliation and resentment lingering in the hearts of the generals.
In the prison car, Yang Lin coughed slightly, his face was painful, and the soldiers around him had sweaty palms. He still raised his whip and gave it a slap, and cursed: "Be honest, do you think you are still a young man?"
The surrounding soldiers glared angrily. If looks could kill, these fake knights had been cut into pieces. Behind them, the real knights and the people they brought were trembling with fear.
The soldiers did not take it seriously, thinking that these birdmen were frightened by the excitement in the military camp. In fact, behind them were people from the Long Live Battalion.
In front of everyone, Wu Lin's hand quietly touched her waist. Just before she pulled it out, within half an inch, a pair of big hands held her down.
When he looked up, his brother Wu Jie shook his head at him. Wu Lin snorted and ignored him. Wu Jie smiled bitterly in his heart. He would rather do this himself than have his brother do it.
Yang Lin's whole body ached. I don't know why his gang of bastards were so cruel. Yang Lin clearly saw it. Lu Qian hid behind people and kicked him. He also pretended to shout to be gentler and wait for him later.
Wear small shoes. These birdmen are the most measured and know where to hit most appropriately. Although they will not hurt the muscles and bones, they really suffer.
The sky was gloomy, black clouds piled up, and the flags were blown by the wind and sand. There was silence in the camp. The prison car slowly drove out of the camp, and all the soldiers gathered around.
Yang Lin did not say anything else when leading the troops. He ate the same food as the soldiers. He would pat the wounded soldiers' shoulders affectionately to comfort them. He would always command in the military formation during battles. It would be very rare for ordinary generals to do this, and even more so.
What's more, he was the young prime minister of the current dynasty and the pinnacle among civil servants. It was inevitable that these military men would have extra respect for the young prime minister.
In addition, Yang Lin brought unprecedented generous treatment to the frontier troops. Military doctors, armors, weapons, food and grass. All the soldiers knew that this was Shaozai's contribution.
Now that he has fallen into this situation, especially since he still has no faults and merits, how can he not make people feel aggrieved and resentful.
Yang Lin locked the big shackles on his hands and looked up to the sky. His tone was not lonely at all, but he said loudly and forcefully: "There are traitors inside and powerful enemies outside. When the country is in danger, I, Yang Lin, will beheaded unjustly. After I die,
Please don’t have any second thoughts, serve your country with all your loyalty, and resist foreign humiliation.”
At this time, a bolt of lightning flashed across the sky, frightening Yang Lin so much that he cursed in his heart, God, there is no need, acting is not against the law, and he might as well be struck by lightning.
Wu Lin, who had been following him closely, suddenly burst into tears: "My loyal soul has been wronged, and the sky is weeping, Young Master! I, Wu Lin, go first and explore the way for you on the road to hell!"
After saying that, he drew the knife and wiped it on his neck. Fortunately, his brother kept paying attention to him and knocked his knife to the ground. In desperation, he had no choice but to shout loudly: "Young Zai is not guilty!"
At this time, the low-level generals stationed in the army in the Long Live Battalion started making noises, and the military camp, which was originally like a powder keg, was suddenly set on fire.
Lu Qian took the opportunity and said loudly: "Young Zai is not guilty, catch these birdmen behind and chop them down!"
The soldiers of the Long Live Battalion were afraid that the excited soldiers would chop down the people pretending to be messengers, so they quickly pushed and kicked the real knights up to them.
Wu Lin's eyes were red, and he killed one with one strike. His brother could not stop him. Seeing that his brother had caused a big disaster, he could only place his hope on Shao Zai. The law does not blame everyone, and if Shao Zai could be saved, there might be a chance.
vitality.
The prison van was opened, and everyone surrounded Yang Lin and cheered.
Yang Lin was shocked and said: "How can you kill angels without permission? Isn't this a crime of rebellion? This is to kill the nine tribes, and no one can save you. What should I do? What should I do?
.”
"Young Zai, we are willing to accept the Young Zai as our king and secede the land of Yan to fight against the Song Dynasty."
Yang Lin had a straight face and cursed: "Nonsense! Splitting China is an act that cannot be tolerated by heaven and earth. I would rather die than do something worse than a pig or a dog."
His prestige in Youyan was unparalleled. This anger made the generals not angry but more supportive.
Yang Lin jumped onto the prison car, looked down at the generals, waved his hand and said loudly: "You have made a big mistake, but you and I have actually made great contributions to the court. You are suffering for no reason today because there are too many treacherous sycophants around your majesty. I want to raise my troops to Bianliang and kill them all."
The sycophant is always trying to punish Xiaoxiao's petty ideas, who is willing to obey him?"
"We will follow Shaozai to the death!"
"We will follow Shaozai to the death!"
"We will follow Shaozai to the death!"
Lu Qian and others took his armor in time and put it on Yang Lin. He stood on the prison car and looked around. Countless soldiers and generals raised their arms and swords and shouted. In the middle of thousands of people, the crowd was excited. This kind of feeling
It's a man's joy. The heavy rain makes the hero more heroic, which makes people even more heartbroken.
Yang Lin had already made a plan in his mind, and asked Hu Yantong and Wu Jie to lead their troops to defend Yizhou. With Han Shizhong and Zongze taking care of them, there should be no big problem. Moreover, Yao Pingzhong had already broken into the Khitan's Shangjing Mansion, and
Yelu Dashi became very prosperous and regained a lot of lost ground. Wanyan Agu was not that worried, and Youyan would be a complete lunatic if he wanted to make progress again.
"I am righteous, why do I need to bring more troops? I, Yang Lin, set foot in the Central Plains to eliminate the golden dogs and kill the traitors. Who dares to stop me?"
Yang Lin pretended loudly and felt confident in his heart. He had already sent people to spread the word. Chenghai Navy and Song Jiang's soldiers and horses were enough to support him back to Bianliang and clean up Yan Xiyin. One thing to say, Youyan's
The army cannot move. If the Jin soldiers are allowed to go south and completely attack the north of the Yellow River, it is better to die.
Just the showmanship in Bianliang and the soldiers and horses under Song Heizi are enough. If Yang Lin absolutely trusts his confidants, they are probably the Long Live Battalion and Song Jiang given to him by Yang Tong.
Now it seems that Yao Pingzhong returned to the army and went north instead of coming to Youyan to join in the fun. This decision was simply too important. It directly restrained the Jurchens and made them dare not let the main force go south, otherwise their hometown would be destroyed. No matter how strong you are, you are dressed in magic.
, if you don’t want to lose, you have to go back and guard your home.
The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and the horses' hooves splashed mud. Following Wanyan Xiyin's southward path, Yang Lin led Wu Lin and other young generals and more than 10,000 horses southward.
Ride lightly and quickly, and go straight to the heart.
