"Lord!"

Dai Zong came to Liu De, knelt down on one knee, and handed the bamboo tube in his arms to Liu De's hand. The bamboo tube contained Jinyang's military report.

Dai Zong said to Liu De: "My lord, General Peng and Wei Xiaowei took advantage of Yang Bi's troops to attack Jinyang and captured Changyang City. They also defeated Yang Bi's troops outside the city and wiped out [-] troops. With [-] prisoners, the rest of the defeated army fled in all directions, and the leader Yang Bi disappeared, our army won a big victory!"

"Good! Enjoy! What a delight!"

When Liu De heard it, he yelled, as if drinking a stream of ice spring on a hot day, Liu De never thought that the sent Peng Yue and Wei Yan would give him such a surprise. It was already considered a victory for our own side, but I didn't expect that there would be unexpected joy.

If it wasn't for the fact that the system hadn't informed Liu De of the two, Liu De would have thought they were dead in battle!

Everyone behind Liu De also bowed to Liu De one after another: "Congratulations, my lord!"

Liu De waved his hand and ordered: "Notify the whole state of the news of this great victory, and declare that Peng Yue is Zhenwei General (sixth rank), Wei Yan is partial general, and each will be rewarded with 500 taels of gold and five pieces of brocade. Reward!"

Peng Yue was suddenly promoted from partial general to Zhenwei general, and became a military general in the forefront. This is already a very high honor. Compared with Peng Yue's record, it is too brilliant.

With a mere 20 men attacking Yang Bi's army of nearly [-] troops, although Yang Bi led only [-] vanguards, after Peng Yue defeated the [-] vanguards, he directly attacked the large army marching slowly in the rear without stopping. There was no resistance.

A male lion breaks into a flock of thousands of sheep, can you still expect the flock to kill the lion?

It's a pity that Peng Yue's troops are too few, otherwise the record may be doubled, then Peng Yue may really be the most powerful in Hebei, but such a record is enough to make Peng Yue famous in Hebei.

Of course, Liu De would not hesitate to offer rewards, which Peng Yue and Wei Yan deserved.

The big victory came at the right time!Liu De thought to himself.It has the effect of stabilizing the morale of the army and the people, and it also lets those aristocratic families who are a little restless see who is in charge of this Yanzhou!

Sure enough, when the news spread to the school grounds, not only the people were cheering, but even the people in the school grounds who participated in the martial arts were determined to join a thriving force, and there would be a lot of opportunities. !

When the news spread to all parts of Yanzhou, some aristocratic families who were constantly criticizing Liu De for violating the law of their ancestors also kept their voices silent and continued to wait for the moment when Liu De showed his flaws.

Of course, the martial arts continued.

Everyone who participated in the martial arts later was also in high spirits, and Liu De also discovered that there were a few good seedlings among them. It is not easy to achieve good equestrian performance.

Liu De asked about the identities of Zheng Fu and the others. He did not expect that two-thirds of them were descendants of aristocratic families.

But in comparison, the resources they obtain are far higher than those of the poor, such as equestrianism and riding. The common people have no money to prepare war bows and horses, and they will definitely be left behind by these aristocratic families.

Fortunately, the aristocratic families generally resist martial arts, otherwise the aristocratic families would occupy more positions.

Of course, in Liu De's view, these low-status descendants are more worthy of being wooed, because they are not high-status in the family, they will be discriminated against, and even make things difficult for them. .

Only by themselves can they improve their status.

After these aristocratic sons gain more glory, they will attract more people to join the army or participate in martial arts. These aristocratic sons born in martial arts are naturally opposed to the concept of the aristocratic family, and they will also help themselves to divide and attack the aristocratic family .

Of course, this will also cause the family to infiltrate the army, which is unavoidable, but in Liu De's view, this is not a problem.

Thank you Cangjiu for the 100 starting point reward~~Thank you!

Chapter 342 Yang Tianlong's Response and Martial Arts Proceeding Part [-] (Please vote!)

Yang Bi knelt tremblingly in front of Yang Tianlong, not daring to look directly at the furious Emperor Zhao.

"His Majesty..."

Yang Bi kowtowed deeply, he knew that his crimes were serious, and more than half of his soldiers and horses were lost. It was no longer a problem that could be solved with a simple sentence. He had to be responsible for this. Yang Bi never thought of running away. Don't implicate his family for the sake of his hard work.

"You let me down so much, Yang Bi!"

After a long silence, Yang Tianlong spoke.

"The guilty minister failed His Majesty's entrustment, and he deserves death! The guilty minister has no face to face His Majesty, no face to meet the soldiers of the three armies, and is willing to apologize with death, and please Your Majesty to fulfill the guilty minister!" Yang Bi finally said, His expression suddenly relaxed, and his heart became more magnanimous.

Yang Tianlong snorted coldly: "In this way, I still want to praise you as a man?"

"Criminals dare not!" Yang Bi repeatedly said.

Yang Tianlong slapped the dragon chair fiercely, and cursed: "You guys not only killed my soldiers and horses, but even Changyang County was taken by the enemy, and I lost my face. You deserve death Come here, pull Yang Bi out and cut him off!"

Immediately, four guards entered the hall, ready to capture Yang Bi.

Although Yang Tianlong said so, in fact Yang Tianlong had his own considerations.

Although Yang Bi is a collateral lineage, he has also contributed a lot. Although many of the Yang family's children hold important positions, in fact there are only a few with outstanding abilities, and Yang Bi is also considered one of the best.

Yang Tianlong trusted his clansmen the most, and thought that other generals with foreign surnames were unreliable, so how could he really behead Yang Bi.

Moreover, Yang Bi pleaded guilty with a good attitude, which also made Yang Tianlong calm down a lot. If Yang Bi died without pleading guilty, Yang Tianlong would be even more angry.

Afterwards, Yang Tianlong only needs a few words of agreement from his subordinates, and Yang Tianlong will go along with the flow and forgive Yang Bi.

Seeing Yang Tianlong's gaze, one of the officials below immediately understood His Majesty's intentions. As a famous lucky minister, his main duty is to make Yang Tianlong happy.

"Your Majesty, General Yang has contributed so much to His Majesty's efforts to expand the territory and defend the territory. How can he be severely punished for a mere defeat? Wouldn't this mean that the loved ones are hurt but the enemies are quickened? Please, Your Majesty, give him a lenient sentence!"

Seeing this lucky minister who understood Yang Tianlong's mind the most came forward to intercede for Yang Bi, even people with low political awareness understood Yang Tianlong's thoughts, and stepped forward to intercede for Yang Bi one after another:

"Your Majesty, Liu De's army is in full swing in Yanzhou, and our army is in the midst of employing people. How could it be possible to commit suicide as a general? Please forgive General Yang and make him commit crimes and meritorious deeds!"

"General Yang is guilty, but the crime does not warrant death. Please forgive General Yang, Your Majesty."

Another general came forward: "General Yang Bi has led the army for many years, and he has made great achievements. Although he was defeated for a while, the crime is not dead. Even General Yang Shuzi is not invincible..."

Hearing that the general mentioned Uncle Yang, Yang Tianlong slowly opened his eyes, looked down at Uncle Yang, and opened his mouth: "Uncle Yang, what do you think about Yang Bi's defeat!"

Uncle Yang stood in the middle of the group of ministers and kept silent all the time, but now that the emperor opened his mouth, Uncle Yang could only stand out and say, "I think General Yang Bi's crime is not worthy of death, so please give him a lighter punishment!"

"The last general will second the proposal!"

"The minister also agrees!"

At this time, several courtiers also stood up and pleaded for Yang Bi.

Yang Tianlong put away his gaze from looking at Uncle Yang, and said to Yang Bi: "Since all the lovers are begging for you, I will not kill you, but death penalty is inevitable, and life penalty is inevitable. Officer Yang Bi will be demoted three ranks, plus thirty military sticks! "

Yang Tianlong waved his hand to let the guards drag Yang Bi down.

Yang Bi was overjoyed, he didn't expect that he still had a way to survive, it was so ups and downs, he broke out in a cold sweat, compared to beheading, what officials say three ranks, thirty army sticks are nothing, Yang Bi hastily kowtowed: "The guilty minister thank you Your Majesty Grace not to kill!"

After Yang Bi was dragged down, Yang Tianlong brought up another matter, "Now that Yang Bi is defeated, who can be the general to take Changyang City for me!"

A courtier came out and said: "Your Majesty, now only General Yang Shuzi can take Changyang as the main general, and it should be sooner rather than later. Changyang City connects the north and the south. The north can go to Liyang and Beizhou, and the south can go directly to Beiping. If the snow melts and the enemy bases itself on Changyang, Peiping will be in danger!"

Yang Tianlong looked around. Except for Uncle Yang, he couldn't choose one person to be the general in the main hall. The other generals who were good at fighting were all guarding the place. The whole army is suspected of attacking Jizhou.
