Great Song Pirate

Chapter 698 Yang Yizhong

After the military parade, although Xu Yi kept smiling, his face became paler and paler. The wound under his ribs caused him to lose a lot of blood, and the pain was severe.

For the following heaven worship activities, he had to take a short rest, took off the heavy armor, and changed his clothes in the house under the pretext of rest without letting outsiders know.

When he took off his armor, Yingchun and the others burst into tears, and they all covered their mouths, almost crying.

Because at this moment, half of Xu Yi's clothes under the armor were soaked in blood, which looked very scary. Yang Ci immediately tore off his clothes, checked the wound for him, and saw a triangular wound on the upper right rib, which was almost deep. Fortunately, the lungs were not injured, otherwise Xu Yi would have vomited blood by now.

Although the wound was no longer bleeding at this moment, a lot of blood was lost. The throbbing pain made Xu Yi feel a little weak.

Seeing the caring eyes of Yingchun and his beloved wives, Xu Yiqiang smiled and said: "Don't be afraid, this little injury is nothing, I have to thank you all today! If you didn't let me go into battle today, I would be really happy today." That's trouble!"

Originally, if the arrow had been shot at other armors, it would have been impossible to penetrate the armor and hurt Xu Yi, but the damn thing is that the arrow landed in a wrong place, it just hit the seam of the armor plate under the ribs , that's why Xu Yi was hurt.

Daniu and Hou Chengcheng knelt down on the ground to plead guilty, and asked Xu Yi to punish them for their ineffective defense. At this moment, the two of them felt so uncomfortable that they wished to take an arrow for Xu Yi, and they felt much more comfortable than this.

"If I read it right, the assassin should have used our double short crossbow. Why did our guy fall into the hands of the assassin?" Xu Yi asked them instead of holding them accountable.

"The humble official has found out that the assassin assassinated a person we dispersed into the city for surveillance in the morning, and got this short crossbow from our body. Now our body has been found in a family. They have been arrested by the little one, and after interrogation, they found out that this assassin came to their family, and they don't know the identity of the assassin, but this family is damned! Now they are being imprisoned in a prison!" Daniel Yi Answered with shame.

Without waiting for Xu Yi to speak, Yiqing ordered Daniel sternly: "Don't keep a single one of their family, cut them all down! They deserve to die! Because of them, the king was almost killed by an assassin! No one is allowed to stay!"

Daniu immediately bowed to accept Yiqing's order, and promised to execute them all after today.

Xu Yi wanted to speak, but Yiqing immediately saw what he was thinking, and immediately said: "Your Majesty! Now your status is different from before, and you must not have the benevolence of women. Today, their crimes have already It is enough to kill their nine clans, but killing his whole family is already considered cheap for them, only in this way can those collaborators be deterred, Your Majesty, don't excuse them!"

Yiqing's words immediately won the support of Yingchun and the others. Now they are all gnashing their teeth with hatred, wishing to go there now and slaughter this family in person. Xu Yi smiled bitterly and said: "Although that is the case, we are not other people. The country, although they are at fault, but killing them all is a bit too much! Otherwise, just kill the adults of his family, the child is innocent, and the crime does not deserve death! Now what we want is the hearts of the people, don't kill too much! Da Niu will do as I say!"

Daniel had no choice but to agree to Xu Yi's order again.

Yang Ci quickly treated Xu Yi's wound, bandaged him up, and used some anesthetic drugs to relieve Xu Yi's pain temporarily. Xu Yi immediately put on a new suit, got up and moved around, feeling that this After a while, he felt much more comfortable. After coming down this morning, the blood loss and sweating almost made him dehydrated. After a period of rest, he finally recovered.

Seeing that Xu Yi was injured, Ma Zhe originally wanted to persuade him to postpone the sacrifice to heaven, but Xu Yi waved his hand and said, "Today is a very important matter, and the ceremony cannot be interrupted because of this. Everything will continue as usual, and we will start immediately. Don't let our morale down! Let's go." !"

Worshiping the sky is actually a matter of saving face. After Xu Yi boarded the altar, he was the officiant, and followed Ma Zhe to mutter a lot of sacrificial rites, then burned incense and kowtowed, and took the jade seal of Jinghai Kingdom from the altar. After completing this ceremony, the process is relatively short, but it looks very solemn and solemn.

With the completion of the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven, the founding ceremony is basically over. Wu Min came to the door at this time and wanted to see Xu Yi, but Xu Yi turned down this guy's request. He knew that today's big The military parade has already frightened him. Maybe this guy is here to buy his own magic weapon, the artillery!

So Xu Yi simply declined and said that there were still important matters, and asked Wu Min to talk about it at the banquet in the evening.

As part of the celebration, Xu Yi held a firework party in front of the imperial palace in the city, and entertained all guests on the imperial city to have fun with the people.

Wu Min didn't dare to push her any further now, and carefully brought people to the imperial city for a banquet.

Looking down from the imperial city, the city is full of red lanterns. These lanterns decorate the night in Dadingfu city very beautifully. Following his order, the fireworks were announced, and they were immediately set off on the palace wall at the same time. Countless fireworks, after exploding in the sky, sprayed out sparks of various colors, and the people in the whole Dading Mansion immediately burst into joy.

This is the first time they have seen such a scene. It can be said that they have never heard of it before. Many people have cramp in their necks. They only think that seeing this kind of thing once in their life is worth dying for.

The envoys were also stunned by the magic and beauty of fireworks, and forgot to speak for a while.

It wasn't until after the fireworks were set off that everyone came back to their senses. To be honest, the fireworks made by Yang Laoxi in Dulong Island at this time are incomparable with the fireworks of later generations. No matter in terms of flower shape or color, they are far inferior to those of later generations. Fireworks are gorgeous and colorful, but the novelty is the most important thing, even so, it is enough to shock the world.

After Xu Yi made a toast to everyone, Wu Min finally found a chance to strike up a conversation with Xu Yi, and after saying a lot of compliments, he finally ended such unnutritious compliments and turned the conversation to the main topic.

"His Royal Highness! Seeing the power of your army today has finally opened my eyes. No wonder the prince has been able to beat the Jin people to such a state of embarrassment since he raised his troops. The prince is indeed a genius for managing the army well!

In this way, the fall of the Kingdom of Jin is just around the corner!It’s just that I have something to ask, the prince is also from the Song Dynasty, and he is well aware of the plight of the Song Dynasty. Our dynasty has been short of horses since the founding of our ancestors, and the court is now going to the north to conquer the Jin people. Today, the old man saw that the prince has enough horses, but I don’t know if the prince is Can you sell me some horses and artillery for your army? "

Wu Min talked for a long time, and finally brought up this matter.

After Xu Yi heard this, he immediately shook his head and said, "Master Wu was just joking. Although the Song court is now at war with the Jin people, it is far less dangerous than the current situation in our Jinghai Kingdom. You must know that our Jinghai Kingdom is in its inception. Now It can be said that the north and the south are facing enemies, and the Jin army from all walks of life is like a pack of wolves. Although our artillery is sharp, it is not enough for our own use. Where can we sell spare artillery to Song Dynasty?
Isn't it a joke that Wu Xiang wants something like ours to save lives now?Don’t mention this matter again, there is still an army of Wushu between Jinghai Kingdom and Da Song, let’s say we don’t have spare horses and artillery to supply Da Song, even if we have, it is difficult to send them to Da Song Song court!

Moreover, Master Wu also knows that the reason why our Jinghai Kingdom is established here is to help the Song court?And since Xu started his army, he didn't know how many people under his command died in battle, but the imperial court cut off its support for us at this time.In this way, the enthusiasm of these soldiers under Xu's command is really cold!
Since Mr. Wu brought up this matter today, Xu might as well say it directly. Now our Jinghai Kingdom and Dasong should be brothers. Please Mr. Wu bring a word to the current officials for Xu, telling Officials, don't do that kind of thing that hurts relatives and enemies. Since Da Song is unable to resist foreign aggression, as a Han, I can leave this matter to Jinghai Kingdom. It is expected that the Jin people will launch a fierce attack on our Jinghai country after the autumn harvest. This battle is related to the survival of our Jinghai country, and also related to the rise and fall of the Song Dynasty. performance in this decisive battle.

It's not that Xu is entrusting the big ones. Although it seems that Jinghai Kingdom is a start-up and its strength is not as good as that of Jin Kingdom, Xu is also confident of winning this battle. After I, Jinghai Kingdom, settled the Kingdom of Jin, Xu would naturally discuss it with the officials of the Great Song Dynasty! "

Xu Yi was in a very unhappy mood today because of the assassin. Seeing that Wu Min wanted to find a bargain, he took this opportunity to beat Zhao Xu of the Song Dynasty. He spoke very rudely. This time he announced the founding of the country , Zhao Xu pretended to send Wu Min over to announce the decree, he didn't even prepare any congratulatory gifts for himself, and cut off Da Song's support for him, so he knew that Zhao Xu must be narrow-minded again and made a wrong idea.

Now that he has established himself as a country, there is no need to be polite to him. No matter what he says, he has done enough for the Zhao family, and he is not afraid that Da Song will draw his salary from the bottom of the pot, but he does not want to At this time, Zhao Xu came to hold him back.

So when Xu Yi opened his mouth, he spoke very impolitely. He wanted Wu Min to take his words back and let Zhao Xu know that now is not the time for Xu Yi to beg Da Song, so he had better think clearly before doing it. Standing in the wrong team at the right time, there was even a naked threat in his tone.

Wu Min originally wanted to take advantage of Xu Yi's claim to be king and get a little advantage for Da Song, but he didn't expect to be taught a lesson by Xu Yi, which made his old face turn red, and he didn't know how to answer. This time Of course he knew exactly what Zhao Xu was thinking when he came here, and no matter what purpose Xu Yi sent troops to attack the Kingdom of Jin, at least he reached out to help Song Dynasty when he was in danger.

The first time Zhao Xu not only refused to show affection, but also sent people to attack and kill Xu Yi, it was already too much, and this time he supported the army and made himself king, the root cause was actually Zhao Xu's stupid trick last time Due!
Anyone who changed the incident at the beginning would probably break with Da Song immediately and completely, and turn around and help the Jin people attack Da Song to avenge this, but Xu Yi still didn't do that, and insisted on resisting on his own. Jin, it's already interesting enough. This time, the establishment of the country was considered understandable from Wu Min's point of view. After all, this piece of land was brought back by someone with a knife and a gun. The officials should be happy to have such a helper who can kill it. Jin Guo is the enemy.

But Zhao Xu was furious. On the one hand, he had no choice but to hypocritically send himself to proclaim the decree. The fundamental purpose was to fight for this useless who is Zhengshuo. On the other hand, he cut off his support for the Fubo Army and ordered the Northern Expedition to temporarily stop. If you want to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, it is a bit unethical to do this.

Fortunately, Xu Yi is not an idiot, he saw the matter clearly, and finally got annoyed, and he, the imperial envoy, was not easy to deal with.

At the moment of embarrassment, the young General Song next to Wu Min was irritated by Xu Yi's attitude. He came out of the crowd and said to Xu Yi, "Your Highness is wrong. The title of King Jinghai is still bestowed by the court officials, how could he be so rude to my majesty?
Your Highness is also from the Song Dynasty. When the country is in crisis, it is a duty to serve the country. Now it is disloyal to support the army and stand on its own. The emperor's kindness is great, and His Highness is not grateful, but he still dares to despise the court like this. Does His Highness think that there is really no one in Song Dynasty? "

Wu Min was terrified at once by Yang Yizhong who came with him. Now, these people are on the one-acre land of King Jinghai. The words of the warlord leader really chopped up people like himself, and there is really no place to find someone to reason with.

So Wu Min hurriedly reprimanded the daring Yang Yizhong and said: "Bold, here is the truth to talk to His Royal Highness King Jinghai, how can you speak? Why don't you hurry up and apologize to His Highness? Step aside and see how the old man will deal with you when he goes back." This daredevil!"

When they made a fuss, they immediately attracted the attention of everyone nearby, and Daniel and Hou Cheng, who had been following Xu Yi, saw that this fellow was disrespectful to Xu Yi, and immediately pressed their hands on the handle of the knife, with fierce eyes, They glared at Yang Yizhong, these people have been used to killing people for years, as long as Xu Yi nods, they dare to pounce on him, and let this Yang Yizhong's blood splatter on the spot.

Xu Yi looked at this stern young Song general, and asked, "Who are you? How dare you speak to me like that!"

"Here in Yang Yizhong, he is just Wu Gonglang in front of the palace! If the young general offends, it is all the young general's fault, and it has nothing to do with Master Wu!" Yang Yizhong was also a little uneasy at the moment. Yi is a self-reliant warlord. I bumped into him just now, and I was not sure that Xu Yi would really turn his face on the spot, so he replied with his chest up, taking the matter onto himself, picking Wu Min, and saving Xu Yi from venting his anger again. Yu Wu Min.

After Xu Yi heard this, his heart jumped a few times. He knew the name of Yang Yizhong. This man was a famous general in the history of the Southern Song Dynasty. Military achievements, military achievements were once included in the thirteen military achievements of the Southern Song Dynasty, quite powerful!
But the strange thing is that among the four generals of Zhongxing in the Southern Song Dynasty, he was not included in it, but Liu Guangshi and Zhang Jun, two deceitful guys, were included in it. Some people can't figure out this problem.

I didn't expect to be here today and meet Yang Yizhong. I didn't expect that Yang Yizhong only got a small employee like Wu Gonglang in the front office of the palace by mistake. It is probably because of his own reasons that he changed his life. The future of many people.

At least what he knows is that among the four ZTE generals, only Yue Fei and Han Shizhong have shown their prowess in the battle against the Jin army. He doesn't know where Zhang Jun is now, and that Liu Guangshi has long been killed Zhao Xu was deprived of his military post and sent to unknown places, not to mention the two brothers Wu Jie and Wu Phosphorus. They are probably still in the Northwest at the moment, and they don't know where to be the leading soldiers!

Thinking of this, Xu Yi was quite emotional. He didn't care about Yang Yizhong's rudeness, but he had a good impression of him for being so outspoken. If all the Song people were as daring as these famous generals, everyone would How could Song be bullied into such a virtue by foreigners!
Xu Yi bowed slightly, stared at Yang Yizhong, and asked him with a cold face: "General Yang is so bold that he accuses me of being unfaithful, aren't you afraid that I will kill you?
Since you said I was unfaithful, then I would like to ask, how did I, Xu Yi, feel sorry for Da Song, and what was my infidelity? "

Yang Yizhong saw that Xu Yi asked him this way, which meant that he would die if he failed today, so he turned his heart and said to Xu Yi: "My lord is originally from the Song Dynasty, so it is right to lead troops to attack gold! For what you did, everyone in the Song Dynasty respected you very much. Moreover, when the national power was extremely tense, the Holy Majesty still tried his best to support the prince's Fubo army, and made the prince king. This is already a mighty favor of the emperor! But the prince didn't think about it. Sheng En, now that his wings are fully fledged, he supports his troops and stands on his own, no longer regards himself as a Song person, and has established this Jinghai Kingdom, can this be called loyalty?"

Xu Yi became interested, and shook his head at Yang Yizhong and said, "General Yang's words are different. Xu is indeed a Han, but not a Song! I'm afraid you don't know this! I am a Han who came back from Nanyang, and Da Song has nothing to do with it. The reason why I raised troops to help Song fight against Jin is because I, as a Han, don’t want to watch our great Han nation being bullied by barbarians!

And I led the soldiers of the Fubo Army to fight to the death in Liaodong and the Kingdom of Jin in order to understand the danger of the Song Dynasty, and it is only natural that the Song Dynasty would support me!This is the duty of the officials of the Song Dynasty, how can it be said that it is his kindness to me?

And I'm afraid General Yang has heard some rumors, so I might as well tell you that those rumors are true. I led the army to die for the Song Dynasty, and how the officials treated me. Soldiers resisting the gold is considered to have exhausted all benevolence and righteousness, so why is there such a thing as infidelity?
Now this territory was not taken from Da Song by me, but by my army who took it from Da Jin with swords and guns. If it wasn't for me, it would be hard to say whether Da Song would still exist now!If I establish a country and become king, why should I be unfaithful?

Furthermore, it is true that I founded the country, but our Jinghai country is helping the Song Dynasty. No one can deny this, but the officials of the Song Dynasty chose to stop fighting with the Jin country twice when we were in danger, and stood by and watched!Is this also my fault?If you want me to respect Da Song, then the officials of Da Song should make me, Xu Yi, respect him. Treat me like this, and I should be respectful to the officials of Da Song!

I'm sorry, I, Xu, ask myself that I am not a saint, and I can't do this!General Yang has listened to my words now, but does he still think that I, Xu Yi, have been disloyal to Da Song? "

Xu Yi didn't know why, but today he finally poured out the words that were suppressed in his chest. Over the past two years, he has suffered enough grievances, and it's all because he is a Han Chinese and he doesn't want to do things that hurt his relatives. The matter of Enemy Kuai has been held back for a long time, but now he finally broke out and expressed his dissatisfaction with Zhao Xu.

After listening to Xu Yi's words, Yang Yizhong understood a lot. It turned out that Xu Yi did not do this for the sake of the Song Dynasty. He was not from the Song Dynasty at all. Immediately speechless by Xu Yi's words, recalling what the official Zhao Xu had done to Xu Yi, he immediately blushed for Zhao Xu.

Seeing the embarrassment on Yang Yizhong's face, Xu Yi finally breathed a sigh of relief, so he went on to say: "Standing in the world, Xu Yi asked himself, he never did anything to be sorry for the nation. I don’t want Jin Guo to see the jokes of our Han people, now I am me, our Jinghai Kingdom is our Jinghai Kingdom, we have done enough, no one will allow anyone to slander us for being unfaithful and unrighteous!

Come on!Bind this Yang Yizhong for me, and put him in custody. If anyone dares to speak nonsense to me again, I, Xu Yi, will definitely kill him! "

As soon as Xu Yi's words fell to the ground, Daniel and Hou Cheng rushed over and held Yang Yizhong down. Someone immediately took a rope and tied Yang Yizhong up.

Yang Yizhong's face turned pale in an instant, he knew that he had offended Xu Yi to death today, Xu Yi was going to kill him, and let out a bad breath!

On the other hand, Wu Min, seeing Xu Yi turn his face on the spot and ask someone to tie up Yang Yizhong who contradicted him, was so frightened that he didn't even dare to fart. Now he was afraid that Yang Yizhong would implicate him. Dare to intercede for Yang Yizhong, he also knows that today Xu Yi has a complete showdown with Da Song, and it can be regarded as an official quarrel with Zhao Xu!
