Yang Yao himself also dived to escape On Yang Qin's ship, there were Niu Gao and other generals. Hearing someone diving, it was estimated that Yang Yao and others led three good swimmers to dive and catch up After chasing for half an hour, he finally caught two exhausted people, Yang Yao and his trusted bodyguard

They caught Yang Mo on the middle of the ship. Yang Mo was already pale, lying on the deck, spitting a few salivas, and shouted "master" in a low voice

At this time, Yue Pengju is sitting in the middle of the coach position The weather was hot and dry. The dust was flying on the land and the sun was dazzling on the water. His eye disease broke out again. In the end cabin, he had to cover his eyes with a thin layer of white gauze to avoid strong light stimulation

Yang Qin came forward and looked carefully at Yang Yao's clothes and face, and returned to the report: "Yue Xianggong, this is Yang Yao himself."

Yue Peng asked, "why is he called master?"

"This is to ask Zhong Xiang to bless him."

Yue Peng raised his head and nodded, "since the body has been verified, we should follow the law. Your Majesty's grace is vast, and other coerced people will not be investigated, so as to demonstrate the benevolence and righteousness of the imperial court."

All the soldiers and generals cheered. On that day, Yang Mo was beheaded, his head was put in a box and sent to Zhang Jun, the governor of Tanzhou city Zhang Jun was overjoyed when he saw Yang Yao's head. When he saw the time, it was exactly seven days

Zhong Ziyi didn't go far after diving and was saved by Dian Shuai Huang Cheng But Huang Cheng was at a dead end at this time, and several of his cronies and his wife insisted on surrender Huang Cheng was worried and said, "my family is Dian Shuai, and the Yue Xiang guild will forgive me?" Hesitating, seeing Zhong Ziyi on board, he decided to give it up and make atonement

Zhong Ziyi just came out of the wolf's nest and went into the tiger's den again. He just cursed and cried for the "master" to show his spiritual blessing, but it was useless. He was imprisoned by Huang Cheng, and then set out to take him to the account of the Yue family army to surrender

Zhang Jun received two returns in two days. This time, it was Zhong Ziyi who was alive. He had a great sense of achievement and personally announced that Zhong Ziyi would be executed as an example Hearing this sentence, Zhong Ziyi lay on the ground with tears streaming down his face, and said, "Dad, I and King Yang followed him, and we were bent on winning the world and had the ambition to be king. If we had known today, it would be better for us to be a rich man who was rich in water village at the beginning, and we would not be able to eat and wear all our lives, alas..."

When a man is about to die, his words are good Hearing this, Zhang Jun laughed proudly, but Yue Pengju was very unhappy, so he couldn't help looking at Zhong Ziyi more

Officers and soldiers found many gold belts, yellow robes, gold chairs and other things called "trespassing" on the ship Zhong Ziyi absconded from He also found the blessed land in his water village, which was magnificent Seeing this wealth, Li Ruoxu and other aides who followed him couldn't help sighing. Zhong Ziyi kept saying "equal wealth". If one day, he won the world, wouldn't he want to build a Fang palace in luxury?

After the execution of Zhong Ziyi, Zhang Jun saw many soldiers surrender. While proud, he frowned again and turned to Yue Pengju and said, "Yue Taiwei has made outstanding contributions to breaking the Dongting water invaders this time. However, the officers and soldiers have implemented the disintegration strategy all the way. There are many surrenders, and there is no mass destruction. I'm afraid it's not enough to deter the murderers in the bandit army. Once the officers and soldiers evacuate, will these murderers not die?" But he felt that the victory was too easy, and the death and injury were not serious enough to punish

Yue Peng raised his eyes but saw that his eyes fell on many soldiers. His heart was shocked. Naturally, he understood what his "punishment" meant. This was a large-scale "bloodbath" to shake his reputation

Yue Peng went to Dongting to investigate. He knew that the people in Southeast China were hard, and there were no large-scale deaths and injuries. This was his biggest goal in this battle, so he tried his best to persuade him to surrender all the way. For this reason, even the family did not care. Knowing that his wife was angry, he had no time to comfort him Now that Yang Meizhong Ziyi is dead, how can he kill wantonly? He hurriedly said, "these people are ignorant people who have been deluded by Zhong Xiang, Yang Yao and others. In addition, in recent years, Jinghu road has been tyrannical like a tiger, and there have been severe droughts and disasters from time to time. The people have been displaced, and they have no choice but to take risks. Are the people of the country comparable to the soldiers of the enemy country? The killing is ominous..."

Zhang Jun didn't think so: "so, how can it reflect the heavenly power of the court?"

Yue Pengju was very disgusted, but he was still kind: "even so, you might as well collect all the weapons, burn their fences depending on the water potential, and choose those who are hardbound to be incorporated into the army to serve the country. In this way, when the northern expedition, they can also be counted as additional soldiers."

Although Zhang Jun was ambitious and talented, one of the few officials in the court who agreed with the northern expedition, unlike other moderates, kept speculating about Zhao Deji's thoughts and actions. Therefore, Yue Pengju was very respectful to him Zhang Jun listened to what he said, and then said, "but I'm afraid it's still not enough to deter..."

Yue Pengju said, "another plan for the lower officials is to select the three important strongholds in Jinghu and hold a military parade before leaving. In this way, the masses can be warned."

Zhang Jun had nothing to say now, and immediately said, "OK!"

The conversation with Zhang Jun this time was quite long. Yue Peng was suffering from eye disease, but he couldn't cover his eyes in front of the current Tsai Fu and had to endure the stimulation of strong light. It was really miserable After the conversation, he hurried back to the barracks and lay down, which gave him a long sigh of relief

However, the pain of eye disease is secondary. As soon as I lay down, I was surrounded by that loneliness and desolation, and the warmth of my former family disappeared Over the past two years, he has been used to having a wife at home. Every day when he goes back, there are steaming meals, some people boo him, and even his wife will brush his armor himself. The two are close and there is no estrangement However, after coming to Dongting, this harmony was broken, and quarrels between the two slowly grew. Later, the wife simply ran away from home

He felt the letter paper left by his wife from his arms. With his eyes closed, he could recite those words. Suddenly, he was in a panic. He could not bear children. It was always a gap between husband and wife, especially the heart of his wife. How could they cross it? Too many human interference, secular gossip, even if he can resist, how can his wife resist? Then I realized that it was not easy for my wife to run away, and it seemed that it was not as easy as I initially thought

Where can he sleep? Turn over and sit up, look out the window blankly, and see the woods in the twilight, it is even more lonely Outside, the bodyguard who served him had brought the food, but the food was not as delicious as his wife's after all, nor was it his usual favorite taste. He was even more depressed and wanted to find his wife immediately

On the day Yue Peng raised his troops, Duke Kang, who stayed in Tanzhou City, managed to meet Li qiaoniang Gao Lin was young and energetic. He would not miss the opportunity to make contributions to the war. Regardless of his newlyweds, he also went to the war Li qiaoniang is alone at home

Li qiaoniang looked around and took father-in-law Kang close to the inner room. Father-in-law Kang's face was very bad: "good, you servant, how dare you act rashly..."

Li qiaoniang forced herself to calm down and suppressed her anxiety, so she had to take out an excuse she had already thought of Kang Gonggong had no choice but to leave It was not until his back completely disappeared that Li qiaoniang bit her silver teeth. She didn't know whether she hated her life or whether she was blind. She was supposed to be a high-ranking official, such as Madam, but she had to become the wife of a petty official Until this time, she didn't understand why things would go down sharply. However, she was miserable and had no choice but to follow Gao Lin. how could she be prosperous? Rather than waste time in the barracks, it would be better for the grandson of Lin'an City to spend a lot of money

The first military exercise of Yue's army was arranged in Tanzhou City, surrounded by a sea of local people At this time, it was June. At the hottest time of the year, the people were sweating in their thinnest clothes. When they saw the neatly arrayed Yue army, full of armor, although they were also sweating, they were not in a mess The sergeants were holding neat knives, guns, halberds, scarlet uniforms and flags, which made them look more clean The soldiers carried out a series of exercises. In the blazing sun, no one suffered from heatstroke. The people sighed. They practiced in winter and summer

After the three military parades in Dongting area, the lineup and style of Yue's army spread rapidly in the local area, which had a profound impact on the people, and the reputation of Yue's army also spread away, which was the same for a time

After the military parade, Zhang Jun was very satisfied. On this day, he entertained Yue Pengju and other generals to discuss the matter of returning to Beijing for autumn defense Yue Pengju took the opportunity to resign on the ground of eye disease

Zhang Jun was very unhappy, but Yue Peng's eye disease was true, and it was getting worse. Even at today's banquet, he couldn't care to face Zafu, so he had to cover it with white gauze. He had no choice but to say, "wait for your family to tell your majesty, your Majesty's grace, will let you rest for a period of time."

Naturally, what Yue Peng wanted was not just a rest for a period of time, but there was nothing more to say. In the middle, Duke Kang was sitting, with a nondescript smile on his face all the time, but on behalf of the emperor, he lavished praise on Yue Pengju and others, praising him for his loyalty to the country and outstanding contributions. How can his majesty trust yunyun

Although Yue Pengju couldn't see his smile, his voice also felt strange everywhere, and he couldn't fathom Zhao Deji's mind On the surface, Zhao Deji naturally seduced himself, but he flattered himself too much Besides, doesn't he know about his husband and wife? What's the reason to behave like this except to make your husband and wife discord?

Because he couldn't guess, he was more cautious, thinking that this was not the way to go on, but he couldn't think of a good idea to solve the problem for the moment

The weather was hot, and there was nothing urgent along the way, so the journey was very slow, but there was no scenery along the way. In addition, I was in a bad mood, which made me feel that everything was eye-catching

So out of two or three hundred miles, I slept in a small shop that night, ate dinner, slept all night, woke up early in the morning, my brain has been awake for several minutes, at this time, I slowly thought about this period of time, and then I realized that there were many doubts, especially when I saw Peng Ju yesterday morning, he had such a strange smile

However, thinking of the eyes he looked at Li qiaoniang, he was still angry. Now that he and Li qiaoniang are married, what are they doing? This thought, is jealous, simply can't think, headache, this sad, go out to check out, get on the horse and run, just want to run to the end of the world quickly, and never see any acquaintances again

She ran so fast for a long time, but hearing the rustle behind her, she slowly regained her consciousness and thought she was stared at by the thief At that moment, he remained calm and continued to move forward. He heard strange voices. He suddenly stopped and turned around, pulling his bow and aiming

A man slowly flashed out from behind a big tree, looking like an iron tower

She drew full bows and arrows, still aiming at him

Hate!
