Chapter 350 Zhao Guan’s family acquires Yang Wudi; the layout is reversed and Jingkang is humiliated(2/2)
"Yang Ye personally led thousands of cavalry, marched out from Xixing, went around to the north of Yanmen Pass, and raided the Liao army in the south. He led his troops and Pan Mei's army to attack from the front and back, and defeated the Liao army!"
"During this battle, your great ancestor Yang Ye, Dalang of the Yang family, also wielded his sword to kill Xiao Duli, the consort of the Liao Dynasty, and captured Li Chongjie, the commander of the Liao Dynasty's horse and infantry army, alive. This was a great victory at Yanmen Pass!"
"At that time, Emperor Taizong of the Song Dynasty, after hearing about Yang Ye's achievements, specially promoted Yang Ye to the position of Yunzhou Observer. He still knew both Zhengzhou and Daizhou."
"Since then, Yang Ye has gained great prestige among the Liao army and is known as 'Yang Invincible'! Whenever the Khitan people see Yang Ye's flag, they immediately flee!"
After hearing the holy words, all the generals admired the current Zhao Guan family and did not forget Yang Ye's illustrious military exploits a hundred years ago...
They also particularly valued and loved the nineteen-year-old Yang Xinzhong who took the initiative to join the army because he did not want to rely on his father to become an official at the age of twenty...
After Yang Xinzhong heard the holy words, although he was proud of his ancestors, he did not dare to forget the family motto of his father and ancestors.
He was panicked and said modestly: "The last general Yang Xinzhong, thanks to the official family, still remembers the contribution made by the last general's ancestors."
"The family training of the last general: The descendants of the Yang family must be familiar with military books since they were young, and they must also practice riding and archery skills. They must be loyal to the emperor and serve the country from generation to generation, in order to repay the kindness of Zhao Guan's family in the past generations!"
Zhao Ji nodded with satisfaction, reached out and patted Yang Xinzhong on the shoulder, and said:
"I hope that the Yang family's eldest son can become my 'Yang Wudi' in this dynasty!"
Yang Xinzhong was so moved that he choked up...
"However, I don't want you to make the same mistake as your great ancestor Yang Ye who died for his country in the [Yongxi Northern Expedition]!"
Yang Xinzhong burst into tears of gratitude after hearing the holy words...
Yang Xinzhong admired Zhao Guanjia very much.
Although he had heard his father and grandfather tell stories many times since he was a child about how the Yang family's generals had served their country with heroic heroes, he could not tell the official promotions and military achievements of the Yang family's ancestors like the Zhao Guan family.
Where to go in a certain month and year.
Zhao Ji saw that Yang Xinzhong was moved and had great mood swings. He personally helped Yang Xinzhong up, held his hand, and comforted him:
"I not only hope that you will be Yang Wudi, but also hope that your brothers, as well as your father and ancestors, will all be Yang Wudi!"
Young Yang Xinzhong burst into tears and turned into a smile...
"In the first year of Zhenghe, not long after I came to the throne, I heard that the generals of the Yang family had been loyal to the Song Dynasty for generations, guarding the border for the Song Dynasty against foreign enemies, and had many military exploits."
"At that time, I promoted your father Yang Zhen to patrol the border of Linzhou, and assisted your grandfather Yang Zongmin to jointly guard Linzhou."
Yang Xinzhong immediately thanked him and said: "The father of Yang Xinzhong, the last general, often said that he was greatly favored by the officials, but he felt ashamed that his military achievements were not many and he was unworthy of the officials' great kindness."
"No!" Zhao Ji said seriously:
"Master Yang, if you have the opportunity, tell your father that as long as the opportunity comes, with Yang Zhen's talents, he will definitely be able to achieve great military exploits like the ancestors of the Yang family!!"
Yang Xinzhong nodded happily...
The time traveler Zhao Ji naturally knew that after he came to this world, he caused the butterfly effect and changed some major events in history.
For example, in this world, when Fang La was quelling the rebellion in the southeast, because Zhao Ji had the prophet of the time traveler, he quickly recruited the elites of the Northwest Army and the Forbidden Army before Fang La's uprising reached its peak, ahead of schedule.
One year, the Fangla Uprising was put down.
Therefore, Zhao Ji knew that the Song Dynasty court in this world did not recruit the Yang family generals and their troops who guarded Linzhou like during the Square La Rebellion in history.
Therefore, Yang Xinzhong's father, Yang Zhen, also missed his glorious military exploits in history when he participated in pacifying the Fang La rebellion.
Historically, when the Song army put down the Fangla Uprising, the imperial court mobilized many troops from the northwest, including tens of thousands of troops from Zhekeqiu, the magistrate of Fuzhou, and another 10,000 Lin from Linzhou, led by Yang Zhen.
State soldiers and horses.
Fuzhou soldiers and horses and Linzhou soldiers and horses formed a coalition, with Zhe Keqiu as the chief general and Yang Zhen as deputy.
The combined forces of the two prefectures, Linfu and Lin, attacked Fangla. They moved from eastern Zhejiang to Sanjie Town and beheaded eight thousand people. They pursued to Huangyan, where the bandit commander Lu Shinang led his troops to choke the danger and refused to defend. They attacked with stones and were unable to advance for days.
.
Zhe Ke asked for advice, Yang Zhen offered advice and asked for a fight...
Yang Zhen led the suicide squad, climbed up the mountain, and fired arrows with loud noises. This surprise attack killed many enemies...
The thieves of Fang La tribe were afraid that the Song army would break through the dangerous pass they were guarding, so they gathered more wood and fuel, laid it on their own defense line, and set it on fire to defend themselves, hoping to block the attack of Yang Zhen and his troops from high up.
Assault.
Yang Zhen was heavily armored and led his men to rush in on fire, killing more than 30 enemy leaders, big and small, and captured the bandit leader Lu Shinang alive. The rest of the bandit soldiers were so frightened that they ran away...
Zhao Ji came to this world and created a butterfly effect. He did not feel guilty at all for not letting Yang Xinzhong's father Yang Zhen participate in the battle of Fangla and make great contributions.
Because Zhao Ji expected that due to the continuation of this butterfly effect, Yang Zhen might be able to escape defeat and death in the next few years.
Historically, after the Liao Dynasty was destroyed by the Jin Dynasty, the Khitan general Xiaoju Gelu led his troops to flee west. He recruited more than 100,000 Xi people and mixed Qiang people to conquer Fengzhou and attack the city walls of Linfu. Yang Zongmin, the father of Yang Zhen, led
Our soldiers and horses defeated Ju Gelu many times and captured his parents, wife, children...
In October of the first year of Jingkang, Taiyuan fell. Xiaoju Gelu led Youji's rebel soldiers and the Qiang and Xi people to form a coalition of more than 100,000 people, and together they besieged Jianning City, which was guarded by Yang Zhen.
At the foot of the city, Xiaoju Gelu personally persuaded Yang Zhen to surrender and shouted: "Your father took my home, defeated my army, and robbed my flesh and blood relatives. I have endured the humiliation to this day. If you immediately open the city and surrender, I will save your life."
At that time, there were less than a hundred defenders in Jianning City. Yang Zhen made an oath with the soldiers to give him a corresponding reward every time he shot or killed an enemy. Although the official treasury had long been exhausted, Yang Zhen gave his family's money to
All the gold and silver ornaments were taken out as rewards, so the morale of the Song army in Jianning City was greatly boosted.
However, after ten days of fierce fighting to defend the city, Yang Zhen's arrows were exhausted and his troops were exhausted, making it difficult to hold on to Jianning City.
Yang Zhen and his sons Yang Zhuzhong and Yang Zhizhong fought hard and were all killed in the end. The city gate fell and Jianning City fell...
At that time, Yang Zhen's eldest son, Yang Xinzhong, was spared because he had joined the army in the expedition to Hebei earlier.
More than a year later, in the second year of Jianyan, Yang Zhen's father Yang Zongmin led his troops to guard the Yellow River and died for the country in the battle to defend Chang'an...
…
Zhao Ji thought about this and firmly believed that his series of advance plans would definitely change the direction of history and reverse the humiliation of Jingkang!
By the way, it can also allow Yang Zongmin, Yang Zhen, Yang Juzhong and Yang Zhizhong, who are still alive today, to avoid death and death in history...
In this way, the Yang family has several more generals who can participate in the fight against the Jin. Isn't this a win-win situation?
"Alas!" Zhao Ji sighed. He felt bad when he thought of the tragic Jingkang shame in history.
In order to ease his mood, he changed the topic and asked Yang Xinzhong:
"Master of the Yang family, you concealed your family background when you joined Zhang Boying (Zhang Jun), a subordinate of Xianggong Xiaozhong. Considering that you are a descendant of Yang Laolinggong, who sacrificed his life for the country, I forgive you for your shamelessness.
Sin! I will use it again on you!"
"General Zhang Jun, thank you Lord for your kindness..."
Zhao Ji said again: "Master Yang, I will give you two ways to choose."
All the soldiers and generals present listened attentively to the holy words.
"In this follow-up campaign to conquer Xia, are you willing to stay with me, Mr. Yang, and serve as a personal official of the Imperial City?"
"Or do you want to follow Zhang Jun's troops, risk the enemy's arrows, and continue the expedition against Xia? There is a risk of injury or even death!"
Yang Xinzhong said without thinking too much:
"Reporting to the official family, the last general Yang Xinzhong will be the first to choose to accompany the army to conquer Xia!"
"After the Xia Kingdom is destroyed, Yang Xinzhong, the last general, will be selected to serve on the official family to listen to the official's teachings..."
Zhao Ji felt very happy because of Yang Xinzhong's young and mature choice.
"Hahaha!" He laughed, patted Yang Xinzhong's thick shoulder heavily, and said happily:
"I did not misjudge you, the 'Yang Wudi' of this dynasty! You are still 'Yang Wuwei'!"
…
Zhao Ji knew very well that the butterfly effect created by his arrival as a time traveler also affected the way and time Yang Xinzhong joined the army, but it did not change the fact that Yang Xinzhong was Zhang Jun's subordinate in history.
Of course, Zhao Ji could understand the way Yang Xinzhong, who was still a passionate young man, enlisted in the army to conquer Xia without telling his father and grandfather.
Before he traveled through time, he read contemporary historical materials and saw that in the late 1970s and early 1980s, during our country's self-defense and counterattack against Vietnam,
It has really happened that many children of senior officials, aged 18, 19 or 20, secretly signed up to join the army behind the back of their parents, concealed their family background, or they were already in the army and took the initiative to write a letter of application and volunteer.
Go to the front line and fight the just battle to protect the homeland and dignity.
As a result, many brave and fearless soldiers (including some senior officials and disciples) died for the country...
Zhao Ji called Zhang Jun to him again, pointed at Yang Xinzhong, and said to Zhang Jun:
"I heard that Boying joined the army at the age of sixteen. You have been in the army for nineteen years now. On the battlefield, take good care of this 'invincible' and 'fearless' young general of the Yang family!"
"Wei Chen Zhang Jun, please remember the holy precepts and please rest assured, I will definitely take good care of the Yang family's elder brother!"
What Zhang Jun said was from the bottom of his heart! The more he looks at Yang Xinzhong now, the more he likes him...
As ordered, this young general of the Yang family feels that the Zhao Guan family's favor and respect are like a ladder that can reach the sky!
…
"Report!"
"The generals such as Guan Jia, Zong, Yao, Er Wu and others came according to the order, begging to meet the saint and listen to the holy teaching..."
When Zhao Ji heard this, it turned out that the generals Zongze, Yao Gu, Wu Jie and Wu Lin who were farther away had arrived and were requesting an interview.
Chapter completed!
