The Beacon of Kyushu

Chapter 78 Visiting Jinyang to Persuade the Han Lord to Subdue the Famous General in the South of the City ([-])

The southern city of Jinyang was the only Northern Han territory that the Song Dynasty failed to conquer.Looking around, the banners were flying on the top of the city, the soldiers were murderous, and the barracks in the city were orderly, as if Liu Jiyuan's surrender had not affected them.

Yang Ye is in the camp at the moment, standing on the platform with his hands behind his back, assigning soldiers to adjust their defenses.He saw that the soldiers in the audience were exhausted, but they still stood upright, their eyes were full of death, and their expressions could not help showing relief and determination.Even though the emperor had surrendered, he and his soldiers were still unwilling to bow down to Song.By this time, Yang Ye had bet his last hope of restoring his homeland on these soldiers. In his heart, as long as he and these soldiers did not fall, the Northern Han Dynasty would not be considered completely fallen.

At this time, a small school ran up to Yang Ye, knelt down on one knee, and reported: "Report to the general, Song Ying sent a white-faced scholar who claimed to be Yun Zixiao, the general judge of Xingzhou, and he came to recruit Yang Ye at the order of Zhao Guangyi." General!"

Yang Ye stroked his long beard, bowed his head in thought for a moment, and when he was about to answer, Zhe Saihua, Yang Yanzhao and Yang Yanbin's mother and son had already entered the barracks.Yang Yanbin's ears were sharp, and he heard the small school's words from a few feet away, shouting: "Damn it! This Yun is just a mere general judge, and he deserves to come here to persuade him to surrender? You tell him, how far can he go?" Roll as far as you want, if you make me anxious, be careful that I will beat his dog's head with a whip!"

Yang Yanzhao came closer and said, "That's right, our Yang family has been loyal to the Northern Han Dynasty for generations, even if we all die in battle, we will never surrender to the Song people!"

Zhe Saihua was much calmer than the two of them, and said: "My son, this matter is no small matter, don't show off your bravery for a while, let your father decide everything."

Yang Yanbin snorted coldly, rolled his eyes, and stood aside without saying a word.Yang Yanzhao nodded slightly, looking at Yang Ye, waiting for his decision.Yang Ye seemed to have made a good plan at this time, and said to the small principal: "Since this Yun Zixiao dared to come alone, he must have some skills, so you bring him into the camp, and I would like to see with his own eyes how he can persuade him. to me!"

The small school responded, and hurriedly walked out of the camp. The soldiers also consciously divided into two teams, leaving a way for Yun Zixiao.Not long after, Xiaoxiao led Yun Zixiao back to Dianjiangtai again.

Yun Zixiao's face was as calm as water, and he was not afraid of the people present at all. He walked unhurriedly to the general's stage, bowed deeply to the top, and said: "Yun Zixiao was sentenced in Xia Xingzhou, and I met Old General Yang. !"

Yang Ye lowered his head when he heard the words, and saw Yun Zixiao's extraordinary appearance, and the sternness and elegance of his whole body attracted him deeply.Yang Ye looked at it for a while, then said: "Yun Tong judge, you and I are masters, so there is no need to be so polite."

Yun Zixiao straightened up according to the words, and continued: "Old General, I am a native of Jianghu, but I have heard of the old general's name for a long time. Now the Emperor Liu Jiyuan of the Northern Han Dynasty has surrendered in Kaicheng. Presumably a famous general like you should Do you understand the principle that a good bird chooses a tree to live in?"

Yang Ye shook his head and sighed slightly, "Yun Tongjuan, although what you said is reasonable, if one day your Lord Zhao Guangyi is forced to surrender, will you surrender with him without hesitation? Remember, the reason why famous generals become famous , not only because of their superior martial arts and bravery in battle, but also because they have the courage and determination to be loyal to the emperor and patriotism until death!"

Yun Zixiao smiled, "Old General, what you said is wrong! What you said seems to be loyal to the Northern Han Dynasty, but in fact it is just to preserve your own reputation! If you really think about the old master, you should follow him Conquer the Song Dynasty together, because only in this way can you continue to serve the old lord and protect him at all times. If you continue to resist, it will only increase the official's suspicion of Liu Jiyuan, and even make the official's embarrassment because of the old general alone. Don't execute him. If Liu Jiyuan really died because of the old general, would the old general still be as confident as he is now?"

After he finished speaking, everyone present was lost in thought.At first, they believed in their hearts that to be loyal to the old master and the motherland, they should continue to fight, but now everyone realized that their so-called loyalty might not bring comfort and hope to the old master, but jealousy and even killing. For the truly loyal soldiers, they would never want to see them.

Yang Ye originally defended the city with the determination to die, but this desire to die collapsed in an instant, "Yun Tongpan, your words of gold and stone made this old man enlightened. It seems that I have lived for so long, why not You young man sees the world clearly, if you hadn’t taken the risk to come here today, this old man would have made a big mistake! It’s just that this old man has the face to go to see the old master when he descends from the ranks?”

Yun Zixiao took out Liu Jiyuan's blood book from his bosom, opened it in public, and said, "General Yang, you don't have to worry about it. The blood book written by Liu Jiyuan, the emperor of the Northern Han Dynasty, is here. That's what swept his face."

Yang Ye took the bloody book, looked carefully, and saw that it was indeed Liu Jiyuan's handwriting, so he nodded reassuringly.Then he knelt down in the direction of the palace, kowtowed his head three times vigorously, and said with tears streaming down his face: "Officials, Yang Ye is loyal to you, since you even persuaded the late general to return to the Song Dynasty, then the general has no choice but to obey the order." !"

The blood-red sunset reflected the sky, the ancient city of Jinyang, and Yang Ye's pale hair.He stood up slowly, and issued an order: "Soldiers, all of us are good men who are loyal to the emperor and patriotic. Although the country is dead, the emperor is still there. Therefore, the Lord wrote a blood letter to persuade us to surrender to the Song Dynasty. How can we resist the order?" Do not follow..."

Yang Yanbin didn't wait for Yang Ye to finish speaking, and hurriedly shouted: "Father, don't listen to this kid's gossip, he just wants to trick us into working for Song people, you must not be fooled!" With double whips, he glared at Yun Zixiao.

Yun Zixiao was not afraid, and said to Yang Yanbin: "General Yang, the two countries are fighting without beheading the emissary, not to mention your lord has already surrendered. If you kill me now, I'm afraid you will only leave a lifetime of infamy, right?"

Yang Yanbin snorted coldly, "Don't care about the infamy or the good name! I only know that whose fist is hard, whoever has the final say! If you can take ten lashes from me today, I will follow you to the Song Kingdom, otherwise you Deceitful nonsense should be left to Yan Luodian!"

Yun Zixiao suddenly pulled out the Liuyun sword from his waist, and with a dragon chant, the sharp sword light made everyone's hearts shudder.Yang Yanbin frowned slightly, his heart became a little more alert, and with the whistling sound of the wind, the two whips slammed down on Yun Zixiao's face.

"Good time!" Yun Zixiao turned his footsteps slightly to one side, and immediately smashed the double whips against his body, but did not hurt a single hair on his body.Yang Yanbin was greatly surprised, took a deep breath, and swiped the whip towards Yun Zixiao's waist.

Yun Zixiao leaped up slightly, and the person leaped more than half a foot, and then his body fell sharply in mid-air, with his feet firmly on the double whips.When everyone present saw this situation, not to mention those soldiers who were stunned, even Yang Ye's family was stunned.

Yang Yanbin roared, and the double whips were separated to the two sides forcefully, Yun Zixiao was not stable on his feet, so he had to jump off the double whips.Seeing this, Yang Yanbin criss-crossed and closed his whips, like a pair of huge, thick scissors, cutting straight towards Yun Zixiao's chest.

"Dang!" At the moment when the double whips were about to cut to Yun Zixiao, Yun Zixiao disappeared out of thin air.The two whips collided in mid-air, and sparks flew everywhere. Yang Yanbin felt his hands go numb, and the two whips almost fell out of his hands.

He turned around angrily, and the two whips roared towards Yun Zixiao behind him.Yun Zixiao leaned back calmly and kicked Yang Yanbin's wrist with his right foot.Yang Yanbin was already numb from the impact just now, but at this moment Yun Zixiao kicked his wrist suddenly, the iron whip in his right hand could no longer control it, and flew forward three or four feet with a strong wind, and then fell heavily on the ground .

Yang Ye hurriedly shouted: "Bin'er, don't fight! You are not Yun Tongpan's opponent, and if you continue to fight, you will only bring shame on yourself!"

Since Yang Yanbin was born, he has swept thousands of troops and killed countless enemies with his strength and whip.Although he occasionally suffered a slight defeat, he had never lost so quickly and so embarrassingly like today.

"I must beat you!" Yang Yanbin roared unwillingly, handed the single whip to his right hand, and rushed towards Yunzixiao again.Yun Zixiao smiled and asked, "General Yang, do you still want this whip?"

Yang Yanbin didn't understand what Yun Zixiao meant, and said without hesitation: "Whatever you want, what if you don't want it, if you have the ability, you can cut it into two pieces with a sword, Grandpa will serve you today!"

Yun Zixiao shook his head slightly, "If you want to break your iron whip, why do you need a sword, your sleeves are enough!" As he spoke, he flung out his sleeves and fluttered, as if he had no strength at all, just like a flimsy white cloud Go straight to Yang Yanbin's iron whip.

Yang Yanbin sneered, and whipped his sleeve, trying to cut off the sleeve in the air.But when the iron whip and Da Xiu met, the smile on Yang Yanbin's face froze, and then turned into panic and surprise.Because he witnessed with his own eyes that the moment his iron whip collided with his sleeve, he was slapped in two without even making a sound.

"Dang!" The front half of the iron whip fell heavily on the ground, and Yang Yanbin stared at Yun Zixiao as if he had seen a ghost.Everyone present was also dumbfounded in shock, and no one could speak. They were all completely shocked by Yun Zixiao's miraculous move.

This seems to be no longer a martial art, but an illusion, or even a spell.This is simply beyond the reach of manpower, even if a fairy comes to the world, it may not be able to use such a trick.They all understood that if Yun Zixiao's attack was not on the iron whip, but on Yang Yanbin's head, his brain would have collapsed!

It took a long time for Yang Yanbin to come back to his senses, and he knelt down in front of Yun Zixiao without hesitation.He has surrendered in his heart, but the object of his surrender is not the aloof Emperor Zhao Guangyi of the Song Dynasty, but this young man who is almost a god in front of him——Yun Zixiao.

Yun Zixiao helped Yang Yanbin up with both hands, and said with a smile: "General Yang, I just won by chance, but my internal strength is almost exhausted. If you and I continue to compete, I'm afraid I will be defeated by General Yang. .”

After he finished speaking, he wiped the sweat from his forehead, glanced at everyone present, and said: "Everyone, who else wants to compete with me? If so, please come and fight. If not, I hope you can all follow Old General Yang." Return to Song Dynasty!"

Hearing the words, everyone raised their weapons high and said in unison: "Yun Tong's judgment is amazing, I am sincerely convinced and willing to follow General Yang to surrender to the Song Dynasty!"

Yun Zixiao gave a deep salute to everyone, and said: "Since you are all willing to surrender, then I have fulfilled my mission. I would like to thank you all!"

Yang Ye hurriedly stepped down from the general platform, supported Yun Zixiao and said, "You don't need to be polite in the judgment of Yuntong! From now on, you and I will work together in the same dynasty to seek peace in the world. I will gather the team and we will go to Songying together. "

Yun Zixiao nodded slightly, and waited for the team to assemble and walked out of the city side by side with Yang Ye. Behind them were the majestic Yang family general and the energetic Yang family army.Everyone walked closely behind the two with neat steps, facing the sunset in the sky, bid farewell to Jinyang City, which had been stationed for many years, and walked towards Song Ying, which was once hostile.
