Warrior in Turbulent Han Dynasty

Li Yun secretly heard about his eldest son Li Shoujie and told him to go to Hedong to persuade Yang Ye.

Shoujie was a little worried and said: "Father and Yang Ye don't have a deep friendship, and if the child goes rashly, will there be any disadvantages..."

"Just don't worry." Li Yun said in a deep voice, "If my father thinks it's too dangerous, I won't send you there; but if my child talks about it, Yang Ye will be more convinced. Later, the officials in Yunzhou will send a guide to the official government. You go to Jinyang first, where I have old friends, and then someone will recommend you to see Yang Ye again."

Li Yunyu said earnestly again: "The blacksmith Guo sitting on the dragon chair today is brave and foolish, and gave Yang Ye such a good foundation of strength and geographical advantage for nothing. It is impossible for Yang Ye to have no ambition in his place. We give him momentum, and he has no reason to refuse. Even if the deal fails, he can only keep quiet and dare not make a sound.

Yang Ye holds a large number of soldiers, all of whom are former troops of the Eastern Han (Northern Han) army. He is afraid that the court will be suspicious and someone persuades him to rebel, so how dare he publicize it? Do things with peace of mind, baby. "

After hearing this, Li Shoujie nodded in agreement.

According to his father's instructions, he rode a fast horse to Jinyang first. Hearing that Yang Ye was in Xinzhou at this time, he rushed to Xinzhou.

... Yang Ye heard that he was the eldest son of Li Yun, so he asked the old slave to arrange it in a wing room, and told him not to be rude. Li Yun, Yang Ye has indeed been famous for a long time!

Li Yun had fought against the Northern Han Army in Luzhou for many years. He was nicknamed "Hedong White Dragon" among the people, and he was really a famous general. Yang Ye has been in the Northern Han Dynasty for many years, how could he not have heard of this old enemy?

Now Yang Ye doesn't care about the former enemies of the Northern Han Dynasty, now and then, not to mention fighting in Hedong back then, using troops on the battlefield, and having a lot of contacts in private.

Yang Ye walked into the other courtyard, paced slowly under the eaves, but did not enter the guest room. He finally walked to the window and glanced in calmly. I saw a young man drinking tea from a teacup, and then walking around the room with his hands behind his back. In this wing room, Yang Ye put a few rare things, a painting, and a good bow, but the young man didn't seem interested in things at all, and he probably didn't have the heart to pay attention to those things.

Yang Ye quickly walked to the window and didn't go in.

Walking to the door, I met the old servant, and ordered: "Please invite the guests' followers into the courtyard to entertain them. Then go and ask Wang Dutou to bring his troops to surround the courtyard and take everyone down!"

Yang Ye stayed in the hall for a long time, only heard the footsteps of the soldiers, but there was not much movement inside. After getting the old slave's report, he immediately left the other courtyard with peace of mind.

He went home to meet his wife Zhe Saihua.

Zhe Saihua asked: "My husband went to see Li Shoujie?"

Yang Ye shook his head: "Just took a look, I caught him and planned to send him to Tokyo."

After hearing this, Zhe Saihua was still a little surprised.

Yang Ye said: "this man is restless, and he is the son of Li Yun. He came all the way to the east of the river, and he must persuade me to rebel! This can't be done. Today, the war has been chaotic for a long time, how can the Yang family not know the righteousness and start killing again?"

He lowered his voice and said: "I have fought against Jinshang in Baigu and Jinshang. With my martial arts and the strength of the imperial army, I definitely didn't suffer a big loss in Youzhou. If I am blinded by profit, I will definitely be destroyed! The Yang family has no ambition to take risks... Unless Tokyo falls and the country collapses, I will consider advancing Jinyang map to protect myself and wait and see."

After hearing this, Zhe Saihua nodded and said, "My husband understands righteousness and has a sense of proportion."

Yang Ye said in a deep voice again: "Li Yun only knows that I hold the Han army, but he doesn't know that the Han army has reorganized its ranks. A large number of generals under the lieutenant general and commander are all appointed by the court; and the military staff, officials and messengers are all not mine. If I make any rash moves, the Privy Council will be aware of it immediately."

He frowned and walked a few steps, and hurriedly said: "Madam immediately wrote to Guanzhong, knowing the righteousness and interests, to persuade father-in-law not to make any changes. Since Li Yun sent someone to Hedong to be a lobbyist, he may also go to Guanzhong to contact father-in-law."

Zhe Saihua said: "My husband wants to send someone to escort Li Yun's son back to Beijing?"

Yang Ye pondered for a long time, thinking that Guo Shao had entrusted Xin, Dai and several important passes to himself. Without trust, it would be impossible for an unfamiliar Jiang to do that. He immediately said: "I will personally escort you to Tokyo."

Zhe Saihua worried: "It's about treason, will the court suspect your husband?"

Yang Ye said frankly: "The superior treats me with sincerity, and I will repay him with loyalty."

Therefore, Li Shoujie, Li Jun's eldest son, was worse than Li Jixun's eldest son back then. Li Jixun's son even met Li Yun once as a lobbyist; but now Li Shoujie didn't even see Yang Ye's face, and was locked up without saying a word.

Li Shoujie was full of words and puzzled and stayed in a room all night without sleep, thinking about how he offended Yang Ye.

But the Yang family didn't abuse him, the food they brought was very delicious, and the bed he slept on was clean, with a quilt.

Early the next morning, the door was opened, and a warrior said: "Please Li Yanei to go out."

Li Shoujie put on his headdress, smoothed his temples, walked out of the room as he said, and saw a prison car! He froze there for a moment, when two soldiers came up, Li Shoujie had no choice but to let him search his body and take away the secret letter sewn into his clothes. Then he walked into the prison car by himself, and his hands and feet were chained.

...

At this time, the Imperial Army of the Great Zhou Dynasty was still in Hebei, and the Tokyo court was the regent of Empress Duanci.

After Fu Jinzhan finished watching Yang Ye's performance, he first sent people to the Hebei army on horseback. Then, on the east side of the Jinxiang Hall, Yang Ye was summoned by the curtain, and he was rewarded for his loyalty to the country and for living up to the emperor's trust.

Thank you Yang Ye.

Yang Ye has already gone to Beijing to express his loyalty, which can prove that he has no second thoughts. However, after Fu Jinzhan heard that the Northern Expedition had failed, now facing these warriors who held military power, he felt inexplicably uneasy.

In the hall, Yang Ye knelt on the floor tiles, showing great respect to the superiors, and even the ministers on both sides were safe and sound. But Fu Jinzhan still has a very strong guard against him, maybe it's just a prejudice... It was the deep impression and fear left on her during many wars.

Fu Jinzhan stayed with Yang Ye in Tokyo, praising him as a good general that His Majesty relied on, and he will be rewarded when His Majesty returns to the court.

She quickly thought of Zhejia in the northwest, and thought: Since Li Yun has contacted Yang Ye, he should also win over Yang Ye's father-in-law, Zhe Dejian.

Fu Jinzhan then waited for Zhe Dejian's attitude.

...

Guo Shao led the main force of the Zhou army to Daming Mansion, and replenished some military supplies in Daming Mansion. After staying for a day, he stopped by to meet his father-in-law Fu Yanqing.

At this time, I received an urgent report from Tokyo: Li Yun is in contact with everyone, preparing to rebel! Li Shoujie, who was sent to Hedong to persuade Yang Ye, has been arrested and sent to Tokyo.

Guo Shao didn't expect Li Jun to be exposed so soon. His original deployment was to let Wei Wang Fu Yanqing control the towns in Hebei as the West Route Army after the incident, and Long Jie's right wing in Dezhou along the Caoqu River as the East Route Army.

He ordered Shi Yanchao's forward to re-erect the Yellow River floating bridge at the boundary of Bozhou east of Daming Mansion, and the forward to cross the Yellow River to guard the ferry. Then he sent envoys to Yunzhou to inquire about the crime.

Guo Shao personally explained to the envoy: "Be aware of the advantages and disadvantages. When the army crosses the river, Yunzhou will be destroyed. I advise him to take the initiative to meet him in Xingyuan. I can recite his contribution to avoiding civil war casualties. I will spare the life of the Li family and give them wealth."

The envoy was ordered to go to the residence of the Jiedu envoy of the Tianping Army in Yunzhou.

Unexpectedly, when he saw Li Yun, Li Yun smelled of alcohol and blushed from drinking. Then the tablet of Taizu Guo Wei was put up in public, and Ao burst into tears.

The civil and military officials of the Taiping Army military government present were all shocked.

Even the envoys froze there, and there was no way to tell if it was Li Yun's fault... because this dynasty also respected Guo Wei as the great ancestor, and the great ancestor had the kindness to Li Yun, which is known all over the world. But why is he crying?

A military general hurriedly said to the emperor's envoy: "My lord drank too much alcohol today, and I lost my composure. I hope your envoy Haihan."

The envoy hurriedly said: "In that case, I will meet you again sometime later."

Unexpectedly, Li Yun said: "There is no need to meet each other, come here, send him back...Leave the body and send the head away."

The generals were suddenly stunned. The envoy's face changed color, and he said urgently: "Li Jieshuai think twice! Don't be confused for a while, and you will make a big mistake. Your Majesty has a golden word, as long as Li Jieshuai personally goes to His Majesty's palace to plead guilty, he will be spared from death and granted honor and wealth... Li Jieshuai, Li Jieshuai..."

The envoy was dragged out by his own soldiers, his hat was roughly grabbed and left on the ground, and then he was stepped on by the soldiers. The messenger couldn't help cursing: "Li Yun, you|mother, I'm waiting for you on Huangquan Road, so you don't want to end well..."

The civil and military officials in the hall looked at each other in blank dismay.

Li Yun choked up and said: "Taizu has a kindness for me, but I haven't repaid it in this life, but I watched wild men who don't know where to take over Taizu's country, and crowned with monkeys on the temple. Thinking about the hardships of Taizu's entrepreneurship, how can I bear it!"

The faces of the staff members are already very ugly. Now that the army has crossed the Yellow River, the timing of raising troops at this time is too bad! But it seems that Li Yun also has no choice, the secret was leaked at an inappropriate time, and now he can only plead guilty if he doesn't resist... Li Yun doesn't seem to believe that the emperor can spare him.

Li Yun said: "The false emperor Guo Shao is still a prodigal son. He rashly attacked the Liao Kingdom and defeated more than half of the imperial army left behind by the emperor Taizu! Today we will rise up first and wait for the towns to respond, so we can restore the Great Zhou State together!"

The matter has come to this point, even the emperor's envoys have been killed... and the emperor is called a "savage" and "false emperor" in public. It can be said that he has no choice. No one objected on the spot. The generals present were all Li Yun's old troops for many years. No one knew which ones would stand loyally by Li Yun's side. Everyone was familiar with each other, but now no one knew what anyone was thinking.

Immediately, a military general paid homage to him: "The Forbidden Army is powerful and has seized the Yellow River. We should immediately complete the city defense and defend Yunzhou City to the death."

Li Yun said coldly: "We didn't raise our troops to defend the city and wait for an attack. We immediately ordered to gather troops and go out of the city for a decisive battle!"

Li Yun is not only irritable and arrogant, but also a person who knows how to use soldiers. He felt that at a time like this, the defenders of the city had their own ghosts and dreams, and there was only one chance to gather troops to fight.
