Chapter 1065: The battlefield of public opinion also attacks and defenses

When all the inside stories about Jin and Song gradually emerged over the past month, and the views of various characters from different angles overlapped, Lin Qian finally formed a global view of the change of Yueguanfeng, and was moved by the genius's vision and mind, and his determination to subdue Yang An even stronger.

As Xu Yuan said, Lin Qian's decision was always followed by the Allied Army, so Liu Wujin, Hai and others did not need to bother to persuade him, and they all supported him to take back Yang An; while Shi Gui, Peng Yibin and other Red Ao Villages who had always followed Wu Yue on the northern battlefield, had been sharing life and death with the old Yang An's subordinates such as Li Siwen, Shi Poli, and Wang Lin, and gradually agreed that only brothers could survive the crisis. As long as Lin Qian said that "Yang An was deceived", these people would definitely not oppose the return of the rebels.

The soldiers in the northern battlefield may indeed choose to forgive and accept for the sake of the overall situation, based on misunderstandings, or because of the grace of the old year; while the soldiers who followed Yin'er in the southern battlefield were mostly the rookies of the Red Ao Village, or from the Allied troops or even the Qingzhai, and they also tended to restore the integration of the Shandong bandit army. These two types of villages have been influenced by the Allied troops for a long time, so they should be willing to minimize the harm of the Shandong chaos to measure. However, what would Guoan, the eastern battlefield, look at Pei Yuan and Liu Erzu Hao Ding, the western battlefield, look at it?

That's right, at first their losses were not as direct as in the North and South battlefields, but after Lin Qian disappeared and Wanyan Yonglian entered the game, everything changed essentially: the original side harassment turned into frontal suppression. The situation of both of their troops in the past twenty days was not optimistic. Fortunately, Lin Qian had to hold on with the North and South battlefields these days, but just as the Battle of Motianling was over, the two routes were attacked by the Jin army almost at the same time, and the casualties were no less than that of Motianling... These two routes were destined to be unable to take into account both of them at this moment, even if he had never given the combat power of these two places, after all, there were a huge gap.

Shandong's large-scale bandit suppression has been maintained for a year since Lin Qian led the Allied Army to the arrival, and now nearly a year has passed without realizing it. In the Jin army's territory, the Song bandits were already few and outnumbered, and often had difficulty in even dispatching, and were passive and exhausted. What's more, Yang An's rebellion brought a devastating blow to the balance that was finally established, not only to the number of people, but also to the fighting spirit. It was the sharp turn of the war after the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month that made the Song army always have a disadvantage for a long time. To put it nicely, it was perseverance, and the more it became stronger and stronger. To put it badly, it was a stubborn resistance and a turnaround battle. It was difficult to take into account both, so even if Lin Qian could reverse the northern battlefield, he still had no time to save the rest of the world.

In the early morning of the eighth day of the second month, although the Motianling victory and the Yang An Party of Yueguanfeng was barely safe, the report of the defeat of the military ling was conveyed soon. It was the Jin army who changed the commander in the last battle. "Guo'an used Pei Yuan to kill the Song army"... The commander who replaced the commander, "the martial arts were terrifying, the military formation was dangerous, and the means were vicious." It was obvious that with Sima Long, the mysterious middle-aged man of the Hammer belonged to the Prince of Yu's Mansion. The disaster did not go alone. Even if there were several reinforcements sent by Wanyan Yonglian, Hao Ding, still lost several consecutive games. Fortunately, it was Liu Erzu and Hao Ding who were able to keep it intact under the sweep of Wanyan Yonglian. Hao Ding even won a few days ago, otherwise the western stronghold would have been lost long ago.

Although Liu Erzu was the rumored object of Yang An's power struggle, he was simple by nature and could understand the truth. In addition, the losses were light, so Lin Qian was not too worried. However, Guoan, who was tragically baptized by the Jin army, used Pei Yuan, but was afraid that he would become the biggest victim of the Shandong chaos... The bloodbath incident happened when Lin Qian wanted to conquer Yang An. New and old hatreds were piled up, and people on this side might not be willing to forgive easily.

Once the Battle of Motianling ends, Lin Qian immediately sends Hai to replace the seriously injured Pei Yuan to help Guoan. On the other hand, Liu Wujin assists Liu Erzu Hao Ding, "If you really can't resist, don't make unnecessary sacrifices, save your troops and retreat first."

Otherwise, what else can it be? After all, it was Wanyan Yonglian, the strongest enemy in the history of the Allied Army. The Jin army was unprecedentedly strong, and the Song bandits were still divided into two... It was in this unprecedented adversity that Guoan did not lose both Liu Erzu immediately, and his will was unprecedentedly firm. The strength of combat power and resistance was worthy of Lin Qian's peace of mind. However, even Lin Qian, even with Yang An's restraint, could only explain to the two soldiers that the most important thing was not to win the battle, but to protect the soldiers.

Therefore, taking back Yang An and making practical use is not only the most ideal state in Qian's mind, but also the only way to compete with Wanyan Yonglian, whether it is the current dilemma, or the future of Shandong.

Unfortunately, when Peng Yibin and Shi Gui were willing to abandon their previous grudges to save Liu Quan and Yang An, Pei Yuan, who retreated from the Dianjunling, seemed to represent the complaints of the Red Ao Villages there - they really could not accept the return of the rebels.

After Lin Qian visited Xu Yuan and left the tent, he could go to Pei Yuan's place within a few steps. His injuries were particularly serious and he had to be managed by Fan Jing. It is said that he was slightly injured during the bloodbath of the Dianjunling. Lin Qian could imagine how strong the third master appeared in the Yu Prince's Mansion and how much physical and mental trauma caused to the Song army in the Dianjunling.

"Yang An, he will pay the price for the death and injury of the army." When Pei Yuan was awake, he clenched his fists and gritted his teeth, and the hatred was beyond words. Lin Qian knew that Pei Yuan represented a large number of villages, and they were indeed the biggest obstacle to Yang An's return - don't talk about the kindness of the past. No matter how small the hatred was, it was closer than the kindness of kindness. It was close to the eyes and hurt the heart, of course it could cover everything far away. So sometimes a small group of opposition could block a large number of support.

Yes, even if the killing of the general tent proved to be Lin Qian's fault, even if Yang An confessed and was willing to return, even if the change in Yueguan Peak was blinded by Yang An for a while, Lin Qian should have given him a chance, but the battle in Shandong was indeed because of him, which was getting into the abyss, becoming increasingly dangerous and in danger, and being indelible, and cannot be changed, unless, unless Lin Qian can prove with the final result that Yang An can make contributions and can bring a better situation to the Red Ao Village than before the rebellion. On this basis, Yang An must be severely punished in order to pay the price for his mistakes.

Unfortunately, it is difficult to even make Yang An accused of making meritorious service now.

From this point of view, perhaps the bloodbathing incident in the Diaojunling was deliberately differentiated and blocked by the Jin army. The Jin army chose the right time. At this moment, the division between Yang An and Lin Qian is the most important. People in the Jin army such as Huang Zhuo will inevitably spread rumors around Pei Yuan Guoan and other extreme people to prevent Yang An from being accepted by the Allied forces.

"The battle with rumors is the hardest to fight," Yin'er once said, because the investigation of the authenticity of information is far slower than spreading, because rumors are aimed at flaws in people's hearts, how can there be no holes in the wind?

"Ying'er, even if the rumors are rooted in the heart, they must be pulled out even if they are plunged in." He also told Yin'er that just like what he did for her at Muling Pass, there is no need to find the source of the rumors, but to find those disseminators to seal the truth, and then implement the complete truth as quickly as possible. This is the biggest purpose of Lin Qian sending Hai to the Tuojunling District.

After all, the injured person cannot play a key role in the outcome of the war. Everything depends on the national security and their own use, but at least, this trip can stabilize the morale of the army.

When Hai went to clarify the truth about Guoan, Lin Qian also told Pei Yuan who was recuperating from the side: "You all misunderstand that Yang An had never thought that the battle in Shandong would go like this. The current situation is contrary to his original intention."

Yang An's original intention was to rescue the Red Ao Village poisoned by Lin Qian. He hoped that after being independent from the Allies on the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month, he would immediately work with the Jin army to expel the Allies, and then confront the Jin army with Yueguan Peak as the boundary. If he followed Yang An's original purpose, he would definitely promote the unreliable alliance to the entire Shandong area the next day. All brothers should follow me, Yang An and others to fight against Jin, and no longer be assimilated by the Allies, and use them all. In this way, Guoanyong and others must also move closer to him, Peng Yibin and Shi Gui must also return to him, and even Liu Erzu Hao Ding.

But it is obvious that Yang An had never slandered Lin Qian to anyone except for complaining about Liu Quan privately. Not only did he not slander Lin Qian later, he never slandered him. Otherwise, when Yang An approached the guards found out that he was Lin Qian, why would he be so confused and called him the King of Alliance, looking forward or guilty? He should have attacked in anger long ago.

Disaster is two-way, and everyone understands this truth. After the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month, Lin Qian returned from Jinan to Tai'an for several days, and suppressed the rumors of "Yang An's struggle for power and profit" slightly. In this way, it was just a little slow. The rumors were so far-reaching, which shows how rampant it would become; but the rumors about "Lin Qian's deterioration" should have been directed at the Yang An Party in the opposite direction, but why did not spread at all? It can be imagined that Yang An's suppression was more difficult and timely! It can be seen that Yang An even had hopes for Lin Qian before the rebellion, and was unwilling to hurt his reputation too much... It also shows that Yang An probably wanted to wait for Lin Qian to come back from Jinan before confronting him. Although Yang An believed in Huang Zhao, he still left a trace of rebellion for Lin Qian, but his subordinates poisoned Yang Songxian first, so he had to take this move...

Therefore, Yang An never mentioned this substantial reason for rebellion before the rebellion; as for the reason after the rebellion, this reason was the best way for Yang An to win back the hearts of the people, but he still didn't say it half time. Obviously, because the Jin army tore up the letter the next day, he found that Huang Zhu deliberately demonized Lin Qian, and he knew that his original intention was wrong. Not slandering Lin Qian was also a manifestation of his confession and admitting his mistakes.

To sum up, Yang An was deceived by Huang Xue, worried about being killed, and forced to launch a mutiny. The original intention was just to save the Red Ao Village. But the next day, the Jin army tore up the letter and Yang An realized that it was Jin Fang who was lying to him. The original intention was no longer valid, but there was no explanation, which made his rebellion in the eyes of the world. Previously, Yang An's confidants were indeed obsessed with ghosts and those who wanted to help him fight for power and throne, uniting with the blurred boundaries, the old love drove the faction, and the brotherly loyalists rebelled together, which made the reason for "for power" immediately established and circulated in the hearts of the Allies, Huang Xue took advantage of the situation to fuel the fire. Yang An did not argue about this, one was that he had no time to explain, and the other was that he had nothing to say.

Later, Yang An's loyalists agreed to this reason and harassed the Allies after Lin Qian disappeared, saying that you can have a way of life only if you follow us, such as Zhan Hui, Wang Lin and others. They saw that Yang An never explained it, and knew that they could not turn back, so they simply gave up on their own way. But now if the Allies were willing to save them, of course they would not be happy. At the same time, those who followed the situation, or who were grateful at the beginning, suddenly knew that they had made mistakes, such as Shi Poli, Li Siwen and others, even "don't know where Yang An was singing" and "just want to understand." These people were bullied by the Jin army and were anxious all day long, but they were extremely eager to return to the whole thing in the past.

In any case, everyone just wants to survive.

"The Alliance King means that Yang An's original intention of rebellion was to be afraid that the Alliance King would be harmed by the Alliance King? Humph. Haha... He, what kind of delusion is he?" Pei Yuan sneered, his anger was slightly reduced, but his tears were rolling in his eyes. He said hoarsely, "How could he think about it? How could he think about it... He was afraid that he would be harmed by the Alliance King, but it was all his fault!"

Pei Yuan's excitement told Lin Qian that even if the original intention could be forgiven and the process could be ignored, the consequences were too difficult for them to let go of - Yang An, who was afraid that he would have to die to wash away his sins. It was basically more difficult for Lin Qian to save his life than to ascend to heaven.

But no matter how dangerous the road ahead is, Lin Qian is afraid of it. "The truth I and Tianjiao have summarized at present must be instilled into the eastern and western battlefields. Even if it cannot be instilled into their hearts, it must be instilled into their ears." He explained to the sea and Liu Wujin that Liu Wu has no combat power in this battle, and weapons are definitely not swords and guns.

I learned the lesson of this month: Since it is a battle with Huang Zhuo, I must take down the battlefield of public opinion first. To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to Qidian Ambiguous, com vote for recommendations, monthly votes, and your support is my greatest motivation.
