Chapter 31

"In the third year of Yongxi, Emperor Taizong of Song Dynasty sent three armies to conquer the Liao Kingdom. Among them, Pan Mei was the chief general of the West Army, and Yang Ye was the deputy. At first, all the routes went smoothly. Yang Ye captured the Liao Kingdom's Huan, Shuo, Yun, In response to the four prefectures, Cao Bin, the main force, lost in the middle. Song Taizong ordered the troops from all walks of life to lead the army, and later ordered Pan Mei and others to lead the army to relocate the people who had recovered the four prefectures to the interior."

"At that time, the Liao Kingdom's more than [-] troops had already counterattacked and captured Huanzhou. The Liao army had a great advantage in military strength. The task of Yang Ye and others was only to relocate the people, and there was no need to fight the enemy."

At that time, Pan Mei was deployed for the three commanders, and the two of them were equivalent to the relationship between a forward and a commander.And Yang Ye, who is familiar with the geographical location, customs and sentiments, is undoubtedly the reassurance in this war.The win-win situation brought about by the cooperation between the two is not only due to Yang Ye's courage and strategy, but also Pan Mei's close cooperation.The success of the first cooperation only brings about cooperation again.

"Yang Ye's advice to Pan Mei is the best plan. Yang Ye has been fighting with the Liao Kingdom for many years, and he knows the border terrain well. His judgment based on the actual situation is very correct."

"But Wang Xian and Liu Wenyu, the supervisors, didn't take it seriously. They insisted on confronting the Liao Kingdom head-on, and mocked Yang Ye with their cowardly enemies."

"As the commander-in-chief, Pan Mei is also an experienced general. He should know what strategies to adopt when the enemy is numerous and we are outnumbered. Moreover, the mission of this trip is not to fight the enemy, but to relocate the people."

"In the end, Yang Ye tried his best and failed, so he had to take a risky attack. He made an agreement with Pan Mei to let Pan Mei deploy a strong infantry in the main road Chenjiagu. Yang Ye knew that this trip would be difficult to win. Pan Mei Set up an ambush in Chenjiagu, and there is still hope of a successful retreat."

"In 986 AD, after Yang Ye led his army to attack, Wang Xian and others did not receive news for a long time. They thought that the Liao army had been defeated. In order to gain credit, they led their troops to attack. Not long after they advanced, they received news of Yang Ye's defeat and hurriedly retreated. . As the commander-in-chief, Pan Mei did not abide by the agreement with Yang Ye, let alone stop his subordinates from taking unauthorized actions. When he heard the news of Yang Ye's failure, he left as soon as he heard the news of Yang Ye's failure. It was obvious that he did not care about Yang Ye's life and death. Yang Yeli fought until the end. , moved to Chenjiagu, and saw no men and horses to respond. He was very sad and angry, and led his men to fight again. Yang Ye suffered dozens of wounds, left and right, but he still killed hundreds of enemy troops. Yang Ye was exhausted, and his horse was injured again. He was seriously injured and was finally captured alive by the Liao army. Yang Ye's eldest son Yang Yanyu, as well as his generals Wang Gui and He Huaipu all died fighting. Yang Ye refused to surrender after being captured and went on a hunger strike for three days before dying."

Liu Che: Two famous generals, coupled with Yang Ye's understanding of the border, the cooperation between the two is a win-win result, it is really unpredictable!

Zhu Di: A military supervisor can be the leader of a general. He also plays some tricks on the battlefield, so he is worthy of being a general!
Qin Shihuang: This is because of his merits, he was jealous, and he did such a villainous act.

"Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty is right. Pan Mei and Yang Ye can be regarded as a generation of famous generals. The cooperation between the two can also be said to be a win-win situation. Unfortunately, people's hearts are unpredictable after all. Beauty is born, but industry is born! This kind of relationship can't help but let People sigh."

"If the Northern Song Dynasty doesn't do anything, is it still called the Northern Song Dynasty? Even if I am a person of later generations, I feel that the Northern Song Dynasty is really unworthy of the protection of many loyal people."

Liu Bei: It seems that the Song Dynasty is causing trouble again. How can this thing defeat my big man!

Cao Cao: Tsk, tsk, tsk, it’s really frustrating to lose to such a person.

"The special mention of Yang Ye's death in the "History of Liao" shows their fear of Yang Ye. However, the achievements recorded by the Song Dynasty in capturing the four states in Shanxi were all attributed to Pan Mei. And in "Liao History" However, it is recorded in "History" that Yang Ye captured these cities. The Liao Dynasty fought against Yang Ye and indeed knew his record. This shows Yang Ye's good fighting skills and achievements."

"However, the historians of the Song Dynasty recorded meritorious service according to the records of memorials, and buried Yang Ye. However, the compensation for Yang Ye's initial death in battle was not as good as that of the junior generals and others who were lower than him. It can be seen that someone asked the historian to cover up the truth. Who let the historian The twisted one is Pan Mei who has benefited.

"When Yang Ye's wife, Zhe, knew that the pension was wrong, she wrote to Song Taizong to explain the truth. Song Taizong issued an edict to provide generous benefits to Yang Ye's family. Pan Mei was demoted, and Wang Xian and Liu Wenyu were demoted. Your Majesty Yang Ye You are gracious and share the joys and sorrows with the soldiers. During the bloody battle in Chenjiagu, Yang Ye once asked the surviving soldiers to break out of the encirclement, but the soldiers refused and all died in the battle."

"Song Taizong had the ambition to unify the world, but he employed improper personnel and lost brave generals like Yang Ye. How could the Northern Expedition succeed?"

"Although Yang Ye's death was obstructed and ridiculed by Wang Xian and others, Pan Mei, as the chief general, was the real mastermind. For Yang Ye's perfect plan, she did not send troops and watched Yang Ye go to death, but Pan Mei is a relative of the state. Veteran generals can only be punished by demotion, and Song Taizong can only make big things smaller."

Yelu Deguang: To all of you, although I am a foreigner, we can seek truth from facts and not add anything to the great achievements of General Yang. Although we are not from the Liao Kingdom, but for General Yang who killed enemies for the country and served the country with loyalty, The people who admire him are not like Da Song who distorts the facts.

He angrily threw all the memorials in front of Zhao Kuangyin's palace table to the ground. His face turned red, his teeth chattered, and his eyes flashed with uncontrollable anger. He was so angry that he was beaten by the country that he had always wanted to conquer. With such an expression on his face, how could he not burst into anger and spurt out a mouthful of blood? The majestic emperor of the generation was directly attacked by the Liao Kingdom and fainted with energy and blood.

"Come here, call the imperial physician!" There was chaos in the palace...

The other emperors were furious when the king of the Liao Kingdom spoke his words. The foreign races all knew of his great achievements, which were written in the "History of the Liao Dynasty".

The generals of various dynasties were even more angry, how loyal is such a country!How to report!

Zhu Yuanzhang: Zhao Kuangyin, your Great Song Dynasty has completely humiliated the world we have conquered for thousands of years!

Li Shimin: Sending people's heads, giving wealth, and now giving away faces, I really admire them. The emperors of the Song Dynasty are all talents!

"The emperor did nothing, but public opinion did not let Pan Mei go. In later novels and dramas circulated among the people, Pan Mei was described as an incompetent, sinister and shameless villain. It is really fair and comfortable. Yang Ye is the first general of the Yang family. In a generation, the fame is the most prosperous, and the sacrifice is the most heroic."

"The representative of the second generation of the Yang family is Yang Ye's son Yang Yanzhao. Yang Yanzhao's real name is Yang Yanlang, but he changed his name to Yang Yanzhao to avoid taboo. Young Yang Yanzhao was taciturn, but he always liked to play the game of marching and fighting. Yang Ye said after watching it : "This is like me. "In the future, I will definitely bring Yang Yanzhao along with me. Yang Yanzhao grew up in such an environment, and when he becomes an adult, he will also become a soldier serving the country."
