The Sui Dynasty was prosperous and powerful, unparalleled in the world, and the emperors of the two dynasties were diligent and caring for the people, which gave every common people a very strong sense of national pride and self-confidence; they were proud of themselves as people of the Sui Dynasty and were proud of the prosperity of their country. pride. However, the more than 300,000 expeditionary troops who died tragically in the sea and plague in the 18th year of the founding of the Emperor have become a lingering nightmare and shame for every Sui people.
At first, many people didn't know about this shame, but after Yang Ji's expedition to Goguryeo, people in the Sui Dynasty paid more or less attention to this battle, and this shame was revealed and spread among people. ; After the soldiers and people of the Sui Dynasty learned about the past events, they all hated Goguryeo for giving the Sui Dynasty such a huge sacrifice and humiliation. As a result, they had great expectations and attention for the Eastern Expedition commanded by Yang Ji.
The imperial court also hopes to inspire national pride and hope that the war can unite people's hearts, so whenever good news comes from the front, it will be made public as soon as possible. When the victory of annihilating 60,000 enemies in the Empress City and 50,000 enemies in "Thousands of Mountains and Green Sand Rivers" spread to all villages, it quickly caused a sensation in Luoyang City. Many people were infected by the joy of victory and walked out of their homes one after another, excited. They discussed these two great victories with their neighbors.

In the dining hall of the Yingwu Hall of Prince Wei's Mansion in Beiqu of Jingshanfang, all the female generals of the Yang family were present. Before his northern tour, Yang Ji was worried about military coups in Yongzhou and Yuzhou, so he asked his family to take refuge in Zhangye; while Yongzhou did experience several relatively large military turmoils during Yang Guang's stay in Taiyuan. However, although the rebel rebels were huge and uproar, the princes Yang Zhao, Yang Xiong, Wei Xuan, Gu Yi and others who stayed in Xijing had made preparations in advance. With the assistance of Li Jing of Xiu Tuze, the rebellion sweeping Yongzhou was quickly put down, making the so-called hundreds of thousands of troops a dazzling achievement for everyone.
Princess Dugumin thought that peace had returned to Yongzhou. It would not be a good thing if they stayed in Zhangye for a long time. Now that Luoyang had an emperor in charge, she brought back her daughter-in-law and grandson.
It was nearly noon, and Dugu Min, Su Yunniang, Xiao Ying, Pei Shuying, and Liu Rumei were having a banquet.
In fact, the guests are not outsiders, they are the girls of Yang Zhiji, Yang Lun, Yang Jing, Yang Xiong, Yang Qing, Yang Da, and Yang Yichen. Since it is a family dinner, and the guests do not distinguish between the main house and the side house, they are given to them by Yang Guang. Hou Qiaowen, Yang Ji's concubine, also participated, and the other four concubines followed Yang Ji to the battlefield.
In addition to the Yang Zhiji family and the Yang Qing family, the guests actually had men from several families fighting in Liaodong. The family with the most children participating in the war was Yang Xiong, the king of Ande who had many children. He had seven sons, the third eldest of his family, Yang Xu, the fourth eldest, Yang Yan, The fifth son-in-law Yang Gang and the seventh son-in-law Yang Shidao were all at Yang Ji's side as generals; the eldest son-in-law Li Yifang, the third son-in-law Yan Xun, and the fourth son-in-law Li Jun were also on the battlefield.
Yang Xiong's younger brother Yang Da was not as good as his elder brother in having children. He only had two sons, but Yang Da's son was able to have children. He had five grandsons to participate in this war.
Compared with these two brothers, except Yang Jian, the other four sons in Yang Zhong's lineage are all underpopulated, but the heads of the three houses of King Teng, King Dao and King Wei are all in Liaodong.
These women are members of the same family, and each has a husband, descendant, and son-in-law to participate in the war. When they get together, they have many real topics to talk about. There is no need to mince words or find things to talk about, so the family banquet is The atmosphere is very good.
While they were eating and talking, there was suddenly a burst of noise outside, which became louder and louder.
Dugu Min quickly asked: "What happened? What's the noise outside?"
Dugu Min has "Eight Female Vajras". One Vajra said: "Princess, wait a moment, I will go find out."
Before she could go out, Lu Siqi, one of Yang Ji's top ten maids, walked in and saluted: "To concubine and princess, everyone said that our navy first wiped out 60,000 enemies in the Empress City, and then Teng The king ambushed the enemy at Qianshan - Bisha River Road. King Teng annihilated 50,000 enemy troops without losing a single person. In these two great victories, a total of 110,000 enemies were annihilated. Our army's frontline has been pushed to the On the north bank of the Sa River, as long as you cross the Sa River, you will reach the Pyongyang Plain where the capital of Goguryeo is located."
After hearing this, all the Yingying Yanyans in the dining hall were suddenly surprised, especially Princess Teng's Princess Yuwen, Princess Teng's Princess Liu, and Yang Lun's concubines.
When they first heard that Yang Lun, without saying a word, led a navy composed of mixed soldiers to penetrate into the enemy's hinterland, responsible for cutting off Gao Yuan's retreat and the advancement of Goguryeo's reinforcements, their hearts were hanging, even though they were not experts in the art of war. , but they also knew that Yang Lun, who was deep into the enemy's territory, not only had to face the enemy's front and rear attacks, but also had to endure the difficult situation of logistical transportation. Therefore, they had been worried about Yang Lun, who was going deep into the enemy's territory alone and rushing into Longtan alone.
However, no one expected that Yang Lun would go to the southwest of the Liaodong Peninsula. He first used Gao Jianwu to defraud Beisha City, an important city in the Liaodong Peninsula, and then used Gao Jianwu to defraud Gaimou City and Anshi City; and now , he actually wiped out 50,000 enemies without losing a single person.
If this is really the case, wouldn't it mean that my son/husband will also become the Queen of the Wei Dynasty and become the God of War in the Sui Dynasty?
It's just that the happiness came so suddenly, that while Teng Wang's family was overwhelmed, it was even more unbelievable.
"Sister, the character of Yang Lun is really amazing." Compared with the stupid Yang Lun's family records, Dugu Min was not surprised at all, and was convinced of the news. Everything was because of The coach is her son; and since Yang Lun works under her son, no matter what earth-shattering things Yang Lun does, it is extremely normal.
She smiled and said to Yuwen: "Although Shiren Yang Shuangzi and Vajra Nu were invincible in every battle, their father and son could not achieve zero casualties. However, Bin Zhen succeeded in annihilating 50,000 enemy troops, and he was alone. No damage was done, this is quite an amazing achievement! Amazing, amazing."
The Yuwen family was not well-recommended before. She was the sister of Emperor Wu of Zhou Dynasty, Yuwen Yong, and was named Princess Shunyang. Because of this status, during the period of Emperor Xuan of Zhou Dynasty, Yuwen Yun, she was deceived and encouraged to kill her husband Yang Zan. Yang Jian, who was the prime minister at the time. When Yang Zan saw that many people were disobedient when Yang Jian was in power, he was worried that Yang Jian would bring disaster to the family, so he secretly planned to kill Yang Jian.
Yang Jian was well aware of his plan, and even understood Yang Zan's concerns. After the Sui Dynasty, he was tolerant and granted Yang Zan the titles of King Teng and Mu of Yongzhou. The Yuwen clan was restless even at this time, and was kicked out of the clan for a time. Yang Zan begged many times to be reinstated. After this incident, the Yuwen clan finally settled down.
After hearing what Dugu Min said, Yuwenshi said with a smile on her face: "It's a good thing that Bin Chou works under Vajra Slave. Otherwise, Bin Chou would be lucky enough not to be punished. How would he have any chance to make meritorious deeds?"
This is not true, because Yang Lun went in the wrong direction when he was marching, and his deviation was very outrageous. Yuwen and his daughter-in-law had learned from the mistakes of the flying general Li Guang, and they also knew that Yang Lunguang was in this matter. They have committed a serious crime, so they are very lucky that the coach is Yang Ji, otherwise, Yang Lun would have to walk around without finishing the meal.
However, what they didn't know was that Yang Ji was lucky that Yang Lun had gone in the wrong direction. If he hadn't gone to the wrong place and captured Gaimou City and Anshi City thirteen days too late, the battle would have gone beyond his "budget" and control.
"After Shiren's absence, Bin Zhen took on the responsibility of the eldest brother and supported the Vajra slave from the beginning to the end. They are not brothers, but their affection is deeper than that of the brothers. No matter what the Vajra slave does, it is You should." Dugu Min suppressed her smile and pretended to be displeased and said to Yuwen: "Our family doesn't talk to each other, but my sister is out of touch, so she should be punished with a drink."
Yuwenshi understood that Dugu Min was joking, and said with a smile: "Sister, I accept the penalty drink, but one drink is not enough, can I accept three drinks?"
"I think Sister is greedy for my wine!"
"Let my sister see it."
This conversation between the sisters-in-law made everyone laugh.
At this time, another maid walked into the dining hall and saluted: "To concubine and princess, Commander Yang Xing has returned with several soldiers, saying that he has a letter from the king's family."
"Fuxi's Sixteenth General" is the general of the family. When Dugu Min heard what the maid said, he quickly said: "Invite him in quickly."
In the past, letters came from outsiders, but this time it was from her own family. Not only did she want to read the letter, she also wanted to ask about her son.
Not long after, the tired Yang Xing walked in and saluted: "For my humble position, please see the concubine and the princess; please see all the ladies!"
"Without courtesy, please get up." Dugu Min raised his hand and said.
"The humble post and others went to the palace to deliver the good news first, so we were delayed for some time. I hope the concubine and the princess will forgive me." Yang Xing said as he took out Yang Ji's family letter from his arms and presented it with both hands. A maid came up I received the letter before and handed it to Dugu Min.
"It is reasonable to put public before private. If you don't do this, you will be guilty." Dugumin took the letter and was not in a hurry to open it. Instead, he asked about Yang Ji's current situation: "When you set out, Vajra Slave was there. where?"
"Concubine, I and others were separated from the king in Hengshan City. The king has assembled more than 30,000 soldiers in Hengshan City. Next, the king will send troops from Hengshan City to defeat the three enemy armies one by one." Yang Xing After thinking for a while, he added: "Although the three enemy armies have more troops than the king, they are all rabble with low morale and low combat effectiveness. With the king's ability and the current combat effectiveness and morale of our soldiers, if we want to It is not difficult to annihilate them one by one."
Dugu Min nodded and asked: "How is your king's health? Is he okay?"
"Okay, very good!" Yang Xing replied: "Except for the few battles at Xifeng Camp, the king fought calmly. Because the enemy army was too weak, the king was unable to seek defeat. In frustration, he even lost interest in fighting. All gone."
All the faces were as black as the bottom of a pot, and Dugu Min was even more furious. His worries and thoughts were gone, and he said angrily: "Listen, what do people say? Is this what people say? It's so abominable."
Everyone nodded. It was indeed disgusting for Yang Ji to say such things. Just because since ancient times, commanders, generals and soldiers have always dreamed that the enemy army would be weak. However, Yang Ji not only despised the enemy army being weak, but even wanted to be defeated. When he said this, I really don't know how arrogant and proud he was?
Not to mention what the enemies and other people in the hall thought, Dugu Min suddenly felt sulky after listening to Yang Xing's story; as soon as she thought of her son's arrogant look, she wanted to get rid of him. A slap in the face.
It's not that she doesn't care about her son or doesn't care about him, but that her son's "Versailles" style is unknown to her. Even she finds it disgusting and hateful, and she wants to beat him up.
Dugumin no longer missed her son, so she said to Yuwen, "Sister, if you have anything to say, just ask?"
Yuwen bowed to Dugumin, and then asked Yang Xing, "Where is Prince Teng? Did he really annihilate 50,000 enemy troops without losing a single soldier?"
"It's true!" Yang Xing responded.
Yuwenshi asked again worriedly: "Then is he still alone?"
"No longer. Our army is now connected as one." Yang Xing shook his head. Just when Yuwen was relieved, in order to reassure Yuwen, he added: "When the humble post left, King Teng returned the The king of my family wrote a letter. I don’t know the specific content even though I am humble. However, my king was also shocked because King Teng seemed to have said to my king in the letter, ‘Brother, I just want to be killed by the enemy. Whatever you say, Why is it so difficult? This shows that there is no pressure from Prince Teng!"
Everyone was dumbfounded: "..."
They originally thought that Yang Ji was hateful and detestable enough, but they never expected that the older one would be even more hateful than the younger one. He was worthy of being a good brother and a family member, and he was equally want to beat.
Yuwenshi followed in Dugumin's footsteps and had no interest in asking any more questions. She sighed and said to Dugumin, "Sister, I really want to beat Binchen, but it's a pity that he's not here."
"Who says it's not the case?" Dugu Min said angrily: "Our unfilial sons are more hateful than the other, more boastful than the other, and more irritating than the other. It really pisses me off. But although these two unfilial sons are hateful, It's hateful, but it also shows that they are very good and very victorious, and we don't need to worry about them. We'll fight again when they return victorious!"
Xiao Ying glanced at her mother-in-law and said nothing! But she was saying in her heart: 'When my husband comes back, you will be the only one who is willing to beat me! '
Dugu Min didn't care about her daughter-in-law. She was already furious at this time. Angrily, she asked Yang Xing to step back. He waved his hand fiercely and said to the maid who looked at each other: "Let's sing and dance."
After a while, groups of musicians and groups of singers were ordered to arrive.
The beautiful silk and bamboo orchestral music immediately sounded, and the palace of Prince Wei was singing and dancing.
