Yang Lin had a surge of pride in his heart. He was the backer of these soldiers under his command and the support for them to stand up. And they were not the support for him to rule the Song Dynasty. Not all the literati in the Song Dynasty were promiscuous, but
This group is indeed becoming more and more decadent.
The so-called excess is not enough, that is to say, they have a perverted defense against warriors.
During the Jingkang disaster in later generations, the most important first Kaifeng defense battle, military generals from all over the country spontaneously gathered the rebel forces at King Qin. In addition to the main field force of more than 100,000 such as the Western Army, there was also King Qin's division gathered near Bianliang.
Around three hundred thousand.
Except for the Western Army and other economic armies, most of these military horses were poorly equipped and lacked food. However, it was these military horses that suffered repeated defeats and struggled endlessly with the Jurchen army, which allowed the already somewhat tired Jurchen army to demand a large amount of property.
, rescued and left.
However, the central officials in Bianliang were worried that the original image of being more internally important and externally less important would be exposed. They were afraid that the military power of these Qinwangs would be difficult to control. They were even more afraid that the Western Army would be stationed in Bianliang and shake their status. It was as if they were going crazy.
He drove these troops and horses to rescue and recapture Taiyuan Prefecture.
The army officers and soldiers all obeyed the orders of Bianliang and fought without hesitation into the mountains of Hedong. Hundreds of thousands of troops and horses with insufficient food and ammunition were defeated by the Jurchens one after another. By the time of the second Bianliang War,
When we surrounded them, we no longer had any troops left to fight.
The good country was lost. Hundreds of thousands of Han men were killed in the mountains east of the river. In the heart of the Central Plains of Kaifeng, hundreds of thousands of women and girls were sacrificed, plundered, and turned into playthings of foreign races.
On the road to the north, the wind and dust rose, and the sand and snow hit our faces. These weak women from the Central Plains were neither noticed by the historical giants of future generations, nor pitied by their masters who were too busy to take care of themselves at that time. They shrank like lambs, and disappeared in panic.
On the land of the Central Plains, he left a legacy of hatred that is indelible to future generations.
If a big country wants to stand proudly in the world, it must complement civil and military forces. It will not work if either one is missing or does not pay attention to the other.
Everyone present probably did not expect that Yang Lin had such courage.
In this era, scholars despise warriors from the moment they come into contact with people; when they grow up and start studying, their teachers and elders all instill in them the principles of guarding against warriors and use practical actions to set an example for them to guard against and despise warriors.
.
Over time, this concept has become deeply rooted in my bones.
Yang Lin is different. He has a God's perspective and has long seen such harm and narrow-mindedness from history books.
As the number one scholar, he broke through such concepts, which was even more shocking to outsiders.
The number one scholar sitting in his current position is the ultimate in civil service. There is no reason to destroy his own throne.
After the conferring of honors, there was an entrance ceremony. The new Datong was renovated from the inside out.
After the plague dissipated, there was a lot of land and houses that could be awarded to meritorious people. Many of the Western Army officers and soldiers who had been rewarded were preparing to move their families to live in Datong.
Datong Mansion, as a majestic city for thousands of years, even though it has been ravaged by war, is still the center of gravity of the Northland and the irrefutable heart of Yunnei.
As long as the war dissipates, this place will soon regain its vitality and become a prosperous city in the North again.
The prefect of Yunzhou was He Su, who had just arrived from Bianliang. He had already been at the city gate to greet the soldiers and civilians entering the city.
He Su was also a top scholar. He was the top scholar in the first major examination after Zhao Ji took office. To be approved by Zhao Ji in the palace examination, he must be a man with outstanding literary talent and handsome appearance.
In fact, not only Zhao Ji likes him, Cai Jing also values this top pick very much.
Under Cai Jing's care, He Li had a smooth journey, from being secretary to the Provincial School Secretary to promoting various academic affairs in the capital, and then to living and studying, he was sent by the nobles all the way, and he was the seed of the Prime Minister.
.
Later, the Yang Lin palace changed and the direct descendants of the Cai clan were purged. He Su was demoted from the capital and appointed as the prefect of Suining. This number one scholar who had been circulating in the secret circles of the Qing Dynasty showed his truly shrewd and capable nature and governed the place in all directions.
After being blocked, the barbarians restrained themselves, and their reputation grew.
Yang Lin consolidated the court and was no longer afraid of Cai Jing's revolt, so he boldly appointed this capable official with a good official reputation as a cadre.
A position like Yunnei must be filled by an official who has experience in local governance, is able to handle complex matters, and is able to handle small matters.
Of course, He Su also knew that this was a huge trust. As long as he worked hard, he would be able to return to Bianliang Center sooner or later.
At this time, Yunnei was valued even more than Gyeonggi Province. The civil and military officials of the entire dynasty were looking at themselves. As long as they had some political achievements, they would be magnified. Of course, the same would be true if they made mistakes.
Together with him, Yang Lin entered the brand-new Datong City. The streets were very tidy.
The road is wide and flat, and can easily accommodate four carriages traveling in parallel. The buildings along the way have been repaired and repaired. If it is not feasible, they have been demolished and rebuilt. The new houses exude the fragrance of new wood. Yang Lin turned around and pointed to the tallest pavilion in front of him with a smile.
Said: "This smell makes me feel like I have entered Tianjin New Town. Our Datong is reborn from the ashes and will surely reach a higher level."
He Su smiled and said: "This building is the scene of Datong. Because this building is located in the "Qian" position, the first of the twelve directions of the Eight Diagrams, it is called Qian Tower. It is the tallest and most magnificent, and is regarded as a town.
It is an octagonal building and is also known as the "Octagonal Tower". However, according to what Shaozai said today, it is indeed more impressive, so why not call it "Geng Shang Yi"?
Floors'."
The civil and military officials around Yang Lin applauded and praised He Su's idea.
Soon someone came over with a pen and paper, and Yang Lin wrote the words "More Higher Levels" on the street. In the afternoon, a carpenter made a plaque and hung it on the octagonal building, completely changing the name.
Entering the city, not long after the great disaster, Yang Lin, as the nominal head of Taoism, first took off his armor, wore a Taoist robe, waited at the altar in Datong City, and performed a ritual ceremony. He prayed that the disaster would not come again and that the coming year would be smooth.
Then he took off his Taoist robes, dressed in official uniforms, and gathered with all the officials for a banquet.
The banquet only consisted of grain porridge, accompanied by beef and mutton, which was very simple.
Yang Lin was filled with joy. At this time, Lu Wang hurriedly came over and handed him a secret letter.
After unfolding it, Yang Lin's expression changed, he put down the secret letter in his hand, frowned and said to himself: This endless cult...
There is another difference between the Maitreya Cult and the Ming Cult. This long-established cult is a major rebel. It started from the Jin Dynasty to the Ming and Qing Dynasties. Moreover, their behavior is even more eccentric and evil. They kill people for fun at every turn, which is extremely harmful. It must be
Complete annihilation.
He remained calm and whispered to Lu Wang: "Yin Muhong doesn't have enough manpower. Send someone to inform Zhang Shuye and fully cooperate with the Duwei Mansion to eliminate the Maitreya Cult and the Ming Cult."
