The number one scholar of the Song Dynasty

Cai You used to be the magistrate of Daming Mansion for three years in the beginning, so he stopped and stationed here on the grounds of repairing and took bribes wantonly.

You don't give it?Okay, then my 20 imperial troops will live in Daming Mansion, and you can afford the food and clothing, otherwise it will delay the military aircraft.

Everyone in the Daming Mansion complained endlessly, fearing the power of this fellow, they had to do whatever they could to satisfy this fellow's appetite.

Cai You is not the same as Tong Guan. Tong Guan exploits the place and gives you a certain amount. I will leave when I make up enough. There is no delay at all.Although it is also hateful, it can still be seen by people.

Cai You was even more hateful. He didn't say how much he wanted, but he kept asking for it.Among the small species of strategists who came with the army, they came to him several times to explain the severity of the battle. Cai You was as steady as Mount Tai, but he was unmoved.

Drinking and having fun in the Daming Mansion all day long, he had a small calculation in his heart, and if he took a step forward, he would be one step closer to the Jurchen Tartars, which would be a little more risky.

I have so many people, and when Yang Lin, who is capable of fighting, has almost cleaned them up, I will send my master to grab the military exploits.If he loses, he happens to have a scapegoat as well, so he is already invincible, winning the victory steadily, and losing the shirk, which is almost perfect.

There is Cai You's other garden in the Daming Mansion, and three members of his family served as prefects here successively, which can be regarded as a blessed place for the Cai family.

Under the quiet moonlight, the study room was as brightly lit as beans. Cai You was holding a letter. After reading it, he approached the candlelight and burned the letter to ashes.

As soon as the fire-lit room was lit up, there was a sudden sound of small footsteps, following the sound, a beautiful woman with a flirtatious expression entered the study.

The woman was holding a tray with soup cups on it, she approached and said, "It smells weird, did you burn something just now?" Her voice was charming and her eyes were full of sparkles, which made Cai You's heart skip a beat.

He reached out and grabbed the woman's buttocks, and said, "Don't ask questions that shouldn't be asked."

The woman put down the soup cup, sat down on his lap, took his arm and said: "You Cai family are all heartless and heartless people, and you all know how to abandon them in this cold courtyard. It’s been a few years, and it’s still so fierce.”

Cai You's heart softened, and said: "It's okay to tell you, what do you know as a woman, this is a letter from Mrs. Liang, but it's just a way to deal with a small thief. Hehe, you'd better serve the master well, I'll be there The old man made a point in front of him, so that you also have the opportunity to live in Bianliang."

The woman looked disgusted, wiped her tears and said: "Don't talk about that old bastard, he still cuts leeks like a daughter of a good family, the last time I went to the capital, Lingbao didn't even recognize her as his mother. "

This time when you came back to Youyan, that old thing blocked him again. Fortunately, the Tai Tuo went to Genyue with him, so he persuaded the officials to let him bring troops to come.

Cai You snorted coldly in his heart, Yang Lin is not satisfied with being the Duke of the state, and he still wants to show off in Youyan, this time, I will beat you back to your original form, a merchant boy.

4 Chapter Thirty

In Bianliang City, people's hearts are floating.

The news that the Jurchen Tartars abandoned the Khitan in Yunzhou and went straight to Youyan to start a war spread like wildfire. A barbarian who had just destroyed the huge Khitan is now extending its fangs and claws to the Song Dynasty.

Zhao Ji immediately sent 20 soldiers of the Imperial Army of the Beijing Camp, whom he relied on as the god of Dinghai, to the border to help in the battle, led by Cai You who volunteered.

In the bright hall, Cai Jing's face was gloomy, and no one dared to touch his bad luck.Ever since the imperial court ordered Cai You to lead the troops northward from the city gate, no smile appeared on Cai Jing's face.

There is no one who knows the level of his son better than his father, and few people can see the situation in Hebei, Hedong, and Youyan as thoroughly as Cai Jing.

At this time, the situation in the north can be said to be dark clouds over the city, the Hu Feng is strong, and there is no time to hide, but this idiot of his own took the initiative to go.

Big waves wash away the sand, fire melts gold, and Youyan is like a melting pot. Under the turmoil, it is the stage for the strong and the cemetery for the weak.My eldest son is not capable of going to that kind of place.

However, this Nizi became more and more disobedient, and he was sent to Liang Shicheng's place at the beginning, just to protect the wealth and glory of the Cai family.Who knew that Liang Shicheng, who is so famous, has gradually declined recently. If he followed Cai Jing's thinking, of course he would squeeze out the last trace of Liang Shicheng's value and get out as soon as possible.That stupid son of mine is so stupid that he still hangs out with him every day, he is as stupid as a donkey.

At this time, Lan Congxi came over, winked and Cai Jing immediately stood up, and the two walked together to the small courtyard outside the Ming Hall.

"Enxiang, there seems to be some movement in the court. Liang Shicheng's people went crazy and impeached Zhang Shangying, Wang Chaoli, Xu Zhichang, Bai Shizhong and others. Without exception, these people are all Yang Lin's cronies. There are also the police department and the imperial city. There are also many illegal and bad deeds in the company, and they have all been dug out. Displaying testimonies and piles of evidence, it seems convincing."

In Lan Congxi's words, there was a bit of schadenfreude. At the beginning, Yang Lin was the new force of their faction. When he was in the limelight, he almost overwhelmed the high shoes, just like the second person in the Cai party.Who knew that he took advantage of Cai Jingzu's grave being dug up by Fang La, and returned to Hangzhou for more than a month, so he went it alone.In Cai Dang's eyes, he always felt that he was suspected of being a traitor, and he was more or less hostile towards Yang Lin.

It seems that Cai Jing is the only one who doesn't care. In fact, Cai Jing is like a mirror in his heart. Why does Yang Lin leave his big tree alone and want to set up another family.It's nothing more than fear of suspicion from the officials. He has figured out the minds of the officials. If his power as a prime minister reaches a certain level, he will definitely arouse the suspicion of the officials.If Yang Lin still followed him, or got too close to him, the officials would definitely not use him so much.Then Yang Wenyuan started fighting against Han Zhongyan and formed a party of his own. He also saw through this point, and it was not that he had any grudges with him.

With the current situation, there was a turmoil in the court, and Cai Jing's face became even darker at that time: "Nonsense! Even if there is any means, you have to fight it before you use it. The situation in Youyan is so tense right now, it's all because of Yang Wenyuan's presence on the front line." Presiding over the battle situation, the DPRK and China do not do everything in their power to support them in winning this battle that concerns the fate of the nation, but instead drag their legs, wouldn't it make the enemy applaud."

Lan Congxi was slightly surprised. He took a closer look at Cai Jing, and was indeed a little angry. Then he said, "Should we delay for Yang Lin?"

Cai Jing was taken aback by this question, and was completely caught in a dilemma. He himself wanted to suppress Yang Lin.Liang Shicheng's decadent appearance had already been born. After Wang Fu's death, his vitality was severely injured, and he has not recovered to this day.The only one in the court that can pose a threat to itself is Yang Lin's party, whose foundation is becoming more and more stable.The most frightening thing is that he is still young, too young.

After he retired to become an official, no one in the Cai family could compete with him, perhaps even counting his family history.

Right now, Liang Shicheng's offensive is obviously just an appetizer. He has ruled the roost in the temple for so many years, since he chooses to go to war, he must have a certain degree of certainty, and it will not be just these trivial tricks.

Cai Jing kept weighing the pros and cons in his mind. He didn't know what Liang Shicheng's hole card was, and he didn't know if Yang Wenyuan had any countermeasures and counterattacks.How much can I benefit from this strife in the temple?

"Just wait and see."

In Yizhou Mansion, Wanyan Zongwang went into battle in person, only wearing leather armor, and went to cover his shoulders, so his arms were bare for fighting.

The fortress in front of me was not that big, and it was a bit dilapidated, but it was defended for three full days under the violent offensive of the Jurchen.

These three days are enough for the Yizhou Song Army to dispatch and rush to help the encirclement.The strange thing is that still no reinforcements have arrived, and the soldiers of the Song army in the village are eager to see through their eyes, and their eyes have gradually changed from hope to despair.

A Gu issued a death order, and the village must be slaughtered. Even if the city was already battered and dilapidated, Yang Lin made preparations in advance after he came, and the military villages he set up were still strong enough.There are huge crossbows placed on the walls of the village. Although the mountain road next to it is barely passable for soldiers and horses, it is still very difficult to deploy the weapons to attack the village.

Wanyan Xiyin waved his hand, and from the Jurchen camp, there was a loud sound of bow and string being drawn, and there was a lot of movement when they were together.The rain of arrows suppressed the Song army's defense for a while, and countless Jurchen Tartars rushed to the wall of the village with red eyes.Wanyan Zongwang drew his sword and drained his blood, and shouted: "Let's go!"

Wu Jie, the guard in the village, was shot in the shoulder by an arrow, his face was covered in dust and blood, and he looked unrecognizable.He looked around with a little panic in his eyes. He didn't smile until he saw his younger brother Wu Lin who was avoiding the rain of arrows and drawing arrows to fight back from time to time behind a dead body.

The helmet on Wu Lin's head fell off at some point, Wu Jie took off his own, threw it over, crawled over on his knees, approached him and said in his ear: "Second brother, I can't hold on to this , you go and change into the armor of a small soldier, and don’t resist when the time comes, and leave a trace of blood for our Wu family. Our brothers have received the great favor of Shaozai, and I will die in this village as my brother."

Wu Lin frowned, and was about to refute when suddenly a horn sounded.

Song Jun, who was suppressed in the village, suddenly had a look in his eyes, and the expression of surprise was beyond words.

In front of the Jurchen formation, everyone looked to the southeast and saw a red stream on the horizon.The red tassels on the caps of the soldiers and horses of the Song Dynasty gathered together, forming a volcano like flames.

Numerous horns hummed.The flags are like the sea, the wind is fierce, the swords are like the forest, and the cold light is shining.The sea of ​​people kept coming out from a distance, covering the range of sight, and the dust rolled on the ground.

Zong Wang lowered his hands, stepped on the mountain of corpses and looked into the distance. He was stunned for a moment and suddenly looked up to the sky and grinned: "The main force of the southerners has come out!"

Chapter 431 I Will Never Die With You

Yang Lin gathered all around Yizhou

People shouted and neighed, their aura was as strong as a mountain, flags and flags covered the sun, and the light of swords was cold.

Yang Lin was dressed in a military uniform, slightly hunched over from fatigue, and all important parts of his body were ironed. According to Lu Qian's plan, he wished he could even block his eyes.If he hadn't lost his temper with a stern face, I'm afraid this set of armor would be even heavier.

The military village dragged on enough time, so that he could finally calmly mobilize all the military horses around Yizhou who came to help, and fight the Jinren in the wild.

Before the war started, Yang Lin issued a decree that this time it was to defend the country, which was different from the last time to expand the territory, and what was required was to fight for every inch of land.

Before the battle, everyone asked Yang Lin to watch the battle in the city, waiting for the outcome of the battle, but this time there were no less than 8 or [-] people gathered, and half of their main force was actually [-] to [-].

Such a large-scale battle, it is not too much to say that it is a decisive battle, how can we wait in the city.After all, the young generals here do not have a strong commander, so it is difficult to cooperate with each other tacitly, and to advance and retreat with certainty.

The Jin soldiers who were attacking the city wall retreated in an orderly manner holding their shields. A sixteen or seventeen-year-old Song soldier on the wall raised his head and shot arrows with great joy.

The Jurchen soldier below was shot backhanded by more than a dozen arrows, and the young soldier was immediately nailed to the wall of the village. Wu Jie shook his head lightly and said loudly, "Don't act rashly."
