Su Wei suggested that Yang Ji should serve as the first Guardian of Andong. His reasons were very good: because Yang Ji had recovered Mozhou, Xuantu, Xiangping, Changli and most of Liaodong County with one blow and one shot; he had not yet obtained it. Lelang County, Anping County, and Daifang County will also be recovered by Yang Ji. However, the five counties outside Liaodong and Mozhou have just been captured. There must still be a large number of high-minded and anti-Sui forces and people in the five counties.
For this kind of people, ordinary generals and officials cannot suppress them at all, but Yang Ji killed Goguryeo to the point of splitting the liver and gallbladder, and the four fortresses were afraid of him like a tiger. In addition, he was proficient in civil affairs and people's livelihood, and had rich experience in naturalizing foreign races. , if the imperial court allows this murderer to be the first Great Protector of Anton, who would dare to rebel?
Who dares to cause violence? As long as he completes his term, the seven counties under the rule of the Anton Protectorate will be settled. By then, there will be no major problems if someone with both ability and political integrity is sent to take over.
Su Wei's statement is indeed very reasonable, but Yang Guang just feels unhappy and unhappy - oh!
My brother was ordered to do so at the critical moment, and went north with a small and patchwork army. He miserably faced Goguryeo, which had 700,000 to 800,000 elite soldiers. He even took care of the food, grass and baggage by himself. Now, with his help His astonishing military talent and extraordinary courage averted the humiliation of the founding emperor for eighteen years, and recovered a large area of territory. His achievements surpassed those of the Northern and Southern Dynasties and the Great Sui Dynasty, and even my uncle was far behind.
However, he hasn't enjoyed a single day of happiness, and you, old guy, actually want to send him to that hellish place to work for five years?
This is only a secondary reason for Yang Guang's irritation. The main reason for his irritation is that Su Wei asked Yang Jicheng to serve for five years and create a good situation before blowing him away and replacing him with someone else to pick peaches.
Spicy next door, how can such a good thing happen in this world? Do you really think there are no people in my Yang family?
Yang Guang glanced at Su Wei. He could see clearly that this treacherous old man was not thinking about the country. He was clearly worried that after Yang Ji returned to the court, he would take over the power of the six departments of Shangshu Province and make Su Zuopushe lose his power. I don't want Yang Ji to take over the central government.
But he is after all
The "referee" of an ordinary emperor was really not suitable to appear in person, so he forcibly suppressed his raging anger. But Yang Guang was thinking bitterly in his heart: The center is now like a lifeless pool of stagnant water. This one talks about balance, and that one is wise and wise about protecting oneself. What is needed now is people like King Kong Slave who are willing to do things and dare to do things.
The position of Shangshu Ling has become ineffective due to its high position and excessive power. Of course, it’s not up to me, the emperor, to decide whether it’s fiction or reality?
Aren't you, Suwei, afraid that Vajra Slave will take over the power of Shangshu Province? When he comes back victorious, I will make him a just and powerful minister. Let’s see what you can do?
If you don't do it, then get out; if you are not satisfied, then go home and be in confinement! Yang Guang could see through but could not speak, but there were people who could both see through and speak. He saw the white-haired minister Nayan Yang Da standing up. With a livid face, he bowed his hands to Yang Guang and said loudly and displeasedly: " Saint, the old minister objects!" Yang Guang was overjoyed, but his face was as calm as water, and he asked calmly: "Why does Yang Nayan object? What is the reason for the objection?"
"Saint!" Yang Da said solemnly: "King Wei is not only the general of Youyi Guard and the shepherd of Liangzhou, but also the minister of the province. If the imperial court sends the minister who has just made great achievements to the poor and cold Anton Protectorate, , This is simply inappropriate and unreasonable. It would chill the hearts of the officers and soldiers of the Sui Dynasty and the people of the Sui Dynasty, so the old ministers opposed it."
"Sage, I second the proposal." Yang Xiu, Minister of Zongzheng Temple and King of Shu, was also a sensible person. He stood up and saluted and said: "Sage, I, on the basis of what Yang Nayan said, I would like to add that if the imperial court appoints a minister, The King of Wei is the protector of Anton, and that is not a reward or a reward at all, but a distribution."
"Sage, Yang Nayan and the King of Shu are right!" The speaker was Xiao Jue, the Prime Minister of the Council. Putting aside personal friendships, Su Wei's suggestion itself was wrong. The reasons for its recommendation had been completely overturned by Yang Da and Yang Xiu. Xiao Jue Simply express your attitude directly.
"Sage, I second my opinion."
"Sage, I second my opinion." Prime Ministers Gao Jiong and Zhang Heng also said.
"What you said is absolutely true, but I also think it is inappropriate and unreasonable!" Although Yang Guang did not directly accuse Su Wei,
The words "inappropriate and unreasonable" are not accusations, but their power is stronger than accusations. Su Wei, the left servant, was in charge of the three departments of Shangshu, provincial officials, people, and rites. However, Yang Guang was very dissatisfied with him at this time, so he left him alone and asked Gao Jiong, the right servant, "Does Duke Gao have a suitable candidate? "
"Sage, I do have a suitable candidate." Gao Yan glanced at Yang Guang and said solemnly: "Yang Yichen, the deputy general manager of the march in Liaodong Road, is the best candidate for the general protection of the Andong Protectorate. As for the deputy governor, General Han Hong It is really the best choice, so I think there is no need to sacrifice the near for the distant." Gao Jiong recommended the two generals, which fully met the standards of being both civil and military, and having both ability and political integrity. Moreover, although the reputations of Generals Yang and Han were not as good as those of Generals Yang and Han, who were the commanders of the Eastern Expeditionary Army, Yang Ji, judging from the recent battle reports, both of them have achieved something.
After the war, even without Yang Ji, the two of them could still make Xiaoxiao frightened and run away.
"Yes, Yang Yichen will serve as the chief protector of Andong, and Han Hong will serve as the deputy protector of Andong." After thinking for a while, Yang Guang once again put aside his left servant and shot Su Wei, and said to Niu Hong, the official minister: "Niu Gong, you After you get down there, give me a list of the subordinate officers of the Anton Protectorate and the chief officers of the counties."
"Old minister, I obey!" Niu Hong solemnly obeyed.
"Hurry, I think King Wei will be back soon." Based on the battle reports and descriptions of Yang Ji and others, Yang Guang believed that Goguryeo was already a bunch of local chickens and dogs. Judging from the ability, if you want to annihilate it, it will definitely be just around the corner.
The main reason why he said this to Niu Hong was that Yang Guang knew Yang Ji too well. He knew that Yang Ji was a very good person.
A person who is a "love nest" and a filial and caring wife will definitely run back as carelessly as before once the war is over. As for the battlefield that is full of chaos, thousands of miles of red fields and devastated, he will not care at all.
The proposal to establish the Andong Protectorate and retain Goguryeo was actually an order given by Yang Ji to him and the court - the meaning was that I, Yang Ji, was only responsible for fighting and destroying, and everything else had nothing to do with me; moreover, I have made it clear to you beforehand. As for whether you listen and act, it has nothing to do with me. Whether it will be stable or turbulent afterwards has nothing to do with me.
If something happens, don't rely on me. Unless you let me be the Governor of Anton, the post-war reconstruction of the Anton Governor's Mansion has nothing to do with me.
Regarding these things and Yang Ji's character, Yang Guang knew very well. When Yang Ji issued these two major suggestions related to the war, it showed that Yang Ji's battle was progressing very quickly, and it also meant that the Eastern Expedition Army The destruction was completed quickly, and Yang Ji returned quickly with a heavy load, so he must follow Yang Ji's suggestions and will as soon as possible, otherwise, the consequences would be disastrous.
"The last general will meet the saint." Just when Yang Guang was about to announce the adjournment of the meeting, General Dugu Lingyun, who was dressed in military uniform, quickly walked into the hall, gave Yang Guang a deep salute, then stood up and saluted all the important officials in the hall.
Yang Guang asked: "What's the matter?"
"The battle report came from Liaodong, and our army won two more great victories." Dugu Lingyun stepped forward and handed a letter to Yang Guang.
After listening to this, everyone became very energetic. Yang Guang sat up straight, and while opening the letter, he asked casually: "Did King Wei conquer Liaodong City?" Dugu Lingyun took a few steps back, cupped his hands and said, "Sage, that's not the case. It's Mr. Zhou who is in Niangniang City. Annihilated the 60,000 Goguryeo reinforcements led by Wu Bin; King Teng ambushed the deputy lord of Wugu City, Eulji Yideok, at the "Qianshan-Bishahe River", and successfully annihilated 50,000 enemy troops. In addition, there is a poem written by King Wei , this poem is called "Broken Formation"."
"Oh? King Wei finally wrote poetry again?" Yang Guang's eyes lit up when he heard this. Everyone: "..." This is not the point, right?
But this is easy to understand, because in the past few days, the victory reports of the Eastern Expedition Army have been coming frequently, which made the emperors and ministers of the Sui Dynasty a little numb. In addition, Dugu Lingyun said that he had won two major victories. At this time, the poet emperor focused on It's normal to pay attention to irrelevant poems.
Dugu Lingyun said: "Exactly!" Yang Guang couldn't wait to open the letter, glanced at the good news, and directly turned out the poem below to read it. He exclaimed: "Well written, a good man should be like this." He commented. In one sentence, Yang Guang recited aloud in a melodious tone: "When I was drunk, I lit up the lamp to read the sword, and I dreamed of blowing the horns of the company. Eight hundred miles apart, my subordinates were burning, fifty strings were heard outside the Great Wall, and the troops were ordered in the autumn of the battlefield. The horse was flying fast, and the bow was as fast as the bow. A thunderbolt struck me. I ended the king's affairs in the world, and won fame both in life and in life, but it was all in vain!" This line of poetry is powerful and murderous, like thunder and raging waves, catching people's ears and eyes; every word jumps out,
The five words "battlefield" evoke the sound of autumn, a tragic and majestic scene that will last for eternity. Coupled with Yang Guang's passionate voice, everyone felt a majestic momentum rushing towards them, making their hair stand on end and goosebumps all over their bodies.
In an instant, there was deathly silence in the hall, with only Yang Guang's majestic voice echoing continuously. After a long time, Gao Jiong bowed his hand to Yang Guang and suggested: "Sage, King Wei's poem has excellent conception and strong writing style. In the poem, there are also gold and iron horses, euphorbias and spears. The image is bold and unrestrained, which is especially rare." It is written with a solid pen and can be read clearly at the first reading. The veteran suggested that the imperial court popularize this poem to help the military officers and students at all levels to establish the idea of loyalty to the emperor and patriotism." As Gao Jue said, this is the purpose of "Po Zhen Zi" by Que Excellent, the image and thoughts contained in it are very correct, and it can be called a model of loyal and patriotic poetry.
Especially in the second film, the image of a loyal and patriotic soldier is created: "They" have thunderous bowstrings and thousands of arrows fired, killing the enemies one after another, causing them to fall off their horses and retreat in panic; After a battle is decided, both
"Finish the affairs of the king and the world", and
"Winning a reputation during and after death." This is also what Yang Guang said
The important reason why "a good man should be like this". This Que "Po Zhen Zi" is full of high-spirited righteousness,
"Positive energy", Yang Guang also planned to promote it to the military and schools at all levels. At this time, after listening to Gao Jiong's suggestion, he nodded and said: "It's accurate!" After settling the matter, Yang Guang suddenly laughed and was quite pleased. He said teasingly: "I remember at the court meeting, some people said that except for Mozhou County, Xuantu County, Changli County, Lelang County, Anping County, and Daifang County, all the seven counties under the Andong Protectorate were still in the hands of Goguryeo. , and Gao Yuan is personally in charge of Xiangping County where Liaodong City is located, so they think that King Wei is too optimistic, arrogant, and careless to underestimate the enemy. Some even say that his arrogance will lead to defeat. But what about now? But what about now? "
"Ulji Indeok, the lord of Wugu City, was forced to retreat to Wafanggou City on the north bank of Boishui because of the annihilation of Mubin and Eulji Yide. Although he and the inner city defenders held on to the danger, they survived. However, the lower reaches of Yalu River, the strategic strategic points on both sides of the north and south, and the vast land have been controlled by Zhou Fashang's army. What does this mean? It shows that Lelang County between 'Qianshan - Yalu River', 'Yali River - Sashui' Most of the Anping County during the period was recovered by our army. As long as the stubborn and incompetent Ulchi Rende is annihilated, then these two counties will be owned by our Sui Dynasty." At this point, Yang Guang looked at his expression The angry voices of the weird Su Wei, Changsun Chi, and Li Ziquan echoed in the hall: "There are always some people in the court who sit in a well and look at the sky, not knowing how big the world is. It's just that they are not good enough, have no ability, and are useless. , but he not only thinks that others are as bad as him and as incompetent as him, but he is also jealous of the talented and tries his best to suppress the talented. It is really abominable. Huh, don't let me hear any more irresponsible words in the future. Blame me for being ruthless." Su Wei, Changsun Chi, and Li Ziquan knew who Yang Guang was referring to, but they were all speechless.
Yang Ji has outstanding military and political achievements. Because he was too young and did not have a deep foundation in the court, the emperor continued to let him stay in Liangzhou to build up momentum and raise his hopes. If he returns in triumph this time, the emperor will definitely let him He entered the central government and took charge of Shangshu Province and reform matters.
And with his illustrious military exploits, no force can stop him. When the time comes, it will not only affect their status and power, but also with Yang Jizhi's toughness, he will definitely swing his sword at their faction with Yang Guang's full support.
Because of this, the three of them secretly reached a tacit understanding and worked together to block Yang Ji from the central gate.
This morning, the court said that Yang Ji was arrogant, that arrogant soldiers would be defeated, and that he was making fun of the interests of the Sui Dynasty. In fact, they were all serving this goal.
Of course, Su, Changsun, and Li were the representatives of the interests of the Guanzhong gentry, Guanlong nobles, and Shandong gentry respectively. Naturally, they would not slander Yang Ji personally. Instead, they recommended Yang Ji as the protector of Andong in the Tongming Palace. .
But Yang Guang knew which faction the clamoring courtiers in the court belonged to and who had unleashed the dog, so he took the opportunity to teach the three of them a lesson.
Naturally, the three of them knew what they had done in advance, and when they heard Yang Guang mention it, they were speechless and speechless.
