Chapter 1586: The territory I conquered is my sphere of influence
When Yue Fei saw that it was Zhang Suo, he immediately stepped forward and said respectfully: "Don't dare to bother Zhang Xianggong to ask, the last general is Yue Fei, and Zhang Xianggong also knows the name of the next class!" ”
"Commander Yue said that your achievements in gathering strength and spearing the enemy chieftain have been spread to this side of Jingdong Road, and you have the ability to do your best, and your future is limitless, how can you protect the country and the people to resist foreign humiliation outside the country, and in the future, you will also have to command such rising stars in the army to die for the country......
Zhang said with a smile, and then instructed the half-grown young man beside him: "Xian'er, you have been taught by your father since you were a child, and you are determined to learn to settle the land for the country's screen and the people. And this commander Yue is loyal and courageous, resolutely swept away the foreign captives, and single-handedly speared the silver technique, but that is equivalent to the very prestigious enemy chief among the gold thieves, he really deserves to be the talent of my Great Song Dongliang, and you must also be a good student to follow his example. ”
"Yes! Let the child remember his father's teachings! ”
Zhang Xian, the son of Zhang Suo, listened to his father's advice, first replied loudly, and then paced straight in front of Yue Fei, and said respectfully: "Brother Yue, you fought for the country's Zhenrong, and you killed the Jurchen Tartars in fear, and when you heard about it, you have made great achievements, and you can also teach the boy to admire it in every way!" In the future, I only hope to have the opportunity to fight side by side, and I will do my best to help Brother Yue! ”
Some people know each other well, and their ambitions and temperaments are compatible, and they will indeed pay attention to their eyes first. And Yue Fei saw that although Zhang Xian was young, his words and deeds were neat and neat, and when he looked forward to it, he also showed the pride of a heroic young man, just like when he was diligent in studying and honing all day long, he only looked forward to being able to use his skills for the country. With just a glance, Yue Fei was already very happy to be close to Zhang Xian, but at this time, he couldn't help but feel very emotional. Not long after he first worshiped Zhou Dong as his father-in-law, and during the period of boiling his skills in Qilin Village, Neihuang County, he saw what Brother Xiao Tang said to him for the first time, and how similar are the words that Zhang Xian poured out to him now?
"It's just ......"
Zhang Suo's words suddenly changed, and he had a deep meaning towards Yue Fei, and said: "I heard that General Yue and Xiao Renxia went out of the same door, when he led the green forest to gather against the imperial court, it seems that you did not comply with the gathering of subordinates, but successively went to join the army to be a Hebei dare soldier, and the Hedong Road Pingding army to surrender...... I also had with Liu Xuanfu (Liu Tao, Song Tinglian Jin was called as a staff officer of Xuanfu in Hebei and Hedong when he invaded Liao, and now he has to be appointed as the deputy envoy of Xuanfu of Lianghe) to discuss the strategy of the northern imperial captivity, and when I heard that General Yue had won a miraculous feat, I also heard Liu Xuanfu praise that you were heroic and resolute when you dared to surrender from Hebei, and you were loyal and righteous, and you are suitable for reusing and promoting the army can be made, but it is a pity that the army was defeated at the beginning of the Liao Yanjing army, and General Yue returned to his hometown to guard filial piety due to Ling Zun's illness, temporarily left the army, and broke off contact with Liu Xuanfu.
Xiao Renxia was originally an important minister of the imperial court, but he gathered all roads and green forests to rebel and rebel, and now he has been pardoned by the officials, and he is the generalissimo of the world's soldiers and horses to lead the righteous teachers under his command to resist the gold thief...... General Yue's military brigade from Xiangzhou was under the control of the Marshal's Office, and now it is about to fight a decisive battle with the Jinkou army. General Yue followed Xiao Shuai to serve his life, and he must be able to make meritorious contributions after a long time, but General Yue is considered a military general under the jurisdiction of Marshal Xiao Renxia's office, and I don't know if he is willing to be sent by the imperial court to send an order, and can fight with Zhang and Paoze? ”
Yue Fei's face suddenly froze when he heard this, how could he not hear the most urgent point in Zhang Suo's words: Do you want to be loyal to the court in the future? Or will it only be for Xiao Tang's first look?
Even now, I can probably understand Brother Xiao Tang's hard work over the years, but my father-in-law taught my generation of boys to be loyal to the monarch and protect the country, how can I live up to the four words of loyalty and service to the country that my mother stabbed on my back!?
Immediately, Yue Fei did not hesitate, and immediately said loudly to Zhang Suozhengse: "Yue Mou eats the country, is born a Great Song Dynasty, and dies a Great Song ghost, and he joined the army to defeat Jin Kou from Xiao Shuai, but he is not his private general!" What the last general wishes in his life is just to be loyal to my Great Song Dynasty! ”
Zhang saw that his face was happy when he said it, and he stepped forward to stroke Yue Fei's palm and said, "Okay! Good! With me for a day, I will never succumb to General Yue's dedication to the country! ”
Today's Yue Fei is no longer a low-level general who was not famous when he joined the army several times, he personally killed the famous general Yinshuke, the founder of the Jin Dynasty, in the chaos of the army, and his fame immediately spread in the Song Dynasty. Zhang Suo first learned about his temperament and ambition from Liu Tao and other Yue Fei's former officials, and now he joined forces with Xiao Tang's army, and the first thing he thought of was to find out Yue Fei's thoughts, and then discuss with Zong Ze whether this post-generation general who has emerged in the Song army now is worthy of promotion and reuse for him.
After all, although Zhang Suo is consistent with Zong Ze's philosophy, he is also very aware that the relationship between Xiao Tang and the imperial court has not only traces of evil, but also the fierce generals and strong soldiers under his command who have the dual identities of the anti-Jin righteous division and the green forest anti-army, including the Jin State and the puppet Qi regime, have shown a trend of encroachment on the Hebei and Jingdong Zhulu military states captured by the Jin State and the puppet Qi regime, and now the encroachment on the four hundred military states under the jurisdiction of the Song Realm has become more and more obvious.
Hedong Road Military Taiyuan Mansion and other very strategically significant, and called the "shield of the country" of the military important places, previously there was the Western Army general Wang Yu led the army and people in the city to resist to the death, was besieged and attacked for several months, seeing that it was about to be broken and slaughtered by the Jin army, Xiao Tang led his rebels to suddenly kill in the posture of a savior, defeating the Jin Yu army, and the people of Taiyuan and even Hedong Road were happy to shout, and further recognized the prestige of respecting Xiao Tang's forces among the people. However, only many people of insight in the Song court recognized the seriousness of the subsequent problem:
The important town of Taiyuan Mansion has actually been taken over by the rebel army led by Xiao Tang.
And a large area in the north of Hedong Road is actually the sphere of influence of his marshal office. Wang Yu's command of the Song army, including the Shengjie army, fought with heavy casualties in the tragic battles of several months of defending to the death, and also had to be transferred to the area controlled by the Song army to recuperate and reorganize, and was unable to resist the three armies left by Xiao Tang to take over the important tasks of city defense, as for Zhang Xiaochun, the envoy of Hedong Xuanfu and the prefect of Taiyuan, he seemed to have some changes in his mind for the rest of his life, and he was almost resigned to the attitude of the rebels of Xiao Tang to take over Taiyuan. As for the military state capital south of Hedong Road, it is a place where the civil anti-Jin rebels gather and gather, and most of the leaders of the righteous divisions are not only obeyed by Xiao Tang, but even the people, green forest soldiers and horses that he deployed and supported at the beginning, although in the name of resisting Jin and fighting for capture, he tried to ensure that Hedong Road did not fall to the invasion of the Jin army, but due to the weakness of the Song army, Xiao Tang's influence had already penetrated into the entire territory of Hedong Road, and what evil consequences would this lead to?
If Xiao Tang were to break openly with the imperial court now, I am afraid that the large military states on Hedong Road, mainly Taiyuan Mansion, would easily change their banners and be divided into his own sphere of influence. Most of the Song people everywhere regarded the Xiao and Tang dynasties as the saviors of the world, and they became more and more disheartened and cold-hearted towards the Song court...... If Xiao Tang wants to rebel again, how many Li people will resist to the death like resisting the Jin Kou captives in the places where Hedong Road passes, and only agree with the rule of the Zhao Song court?
Now that the decisive battle of the Jin army on the Jingdong Road is imminent, if the Northern Expedition to Jingping recovers the counties of the two roads in Hebei in the future, I am afraid that the situation will be the same as the situation on the Hedong Road. The orthodox imperial power of the Great Song Dynasty over the states of Hedong, Hebei, and Jingdong was getting weaker and weaker, and the officials were frightened by the Jin army's captivity, so they easily agreed to all the conditions offered by Xiao Tang, allowing him to hold the authority to self-govern and support the army in the name of begging for captivity. Zhang Suo, Zong Ze and others knew that in terms of the current situation, Xiao Tang's rebel army was certainly the most dependent force to resist the Jin army's invasion of the Central Plains, but if one day he really might take the Jin State and replace it... Now we must also think about the future in advance, and consider how to deal with Xiao Tang......
And now it seems that this Yue Fei is undoubtedly a national general who can be won over.
