Chapter 106 Did I Successfully Resist the Jin in a Favorable Situation?
Even if there really were emperors who murdered their fathers in this world, Wei Zhongxian knew very well that such an emperor could not be a woman, as it was extremely difficult for a woman to become emperor.
It's best to get rid of these unnecessary hardships as soon as possible.
Magistrate Jiang of the province is troubled.
Besides, did Magistrate Jiang really not intend to kill Jiang Yuanshan?
A good lackey doesn't need his master to explain things clearly; all it takes is a hint of impatience for Wei Zhongxian to immediately step forward and tear the person apart and devour them alive.
Wei Zhongxian coldly stared at the corpse lying on the ground.
The disorganized corpses, the brutal knife wounds, and even these scenes—wasn't Jiang Yuanshan killed by Wang Laohu, the bandit leader who had escaped?
What a coincidence! The bandit leader Wang Laohu, who escaped from prison a few days ago, used just such a chipped ghost knife.
He's been working at the Songyang County government office the whole time.
Wei Zhongxian dusted off his shoes, took off his black clothes, and said that Jiang Yuanshan's death had nothing to do with him.
——
With divine soldiers descending from the heavens and so many fierce generals joining forces, they achieved a swift and overwhelming victory through the combined efforts of numerous heroes.
The battle ended quickly. Jiang Ge saw that Yue Fei had a smile on his face the whole time. He had never fought such an easy battle before. His teammates were simply amazing!
Yue Fei even wanted to greet everyone, wondering where these people learned their skills. That tall, dark-skinned man was practically a tireless killing machine; such a fierce general.
If the Song Dynasty had such a group of fierce generals, then the success in resisting the Jin Dynasty would have been just around the corner.
And that strategist, he's so clever, no wonder people say strategists are so important. This is the first time Yue Fei, who's used to playing against the odds, has ever played against the odds.
Everything went extremely smoothly.
It was rare for Yue Fei to show so many smiles. Jiang Ge stepped forward and stopped, saying, "Thank you for your hard work, General Yue." He didn't know what stage Yue Fei was in now, but judging from his expression, the matter of the twelve gold tablets hadn't happened yet.
Although Yue Fei before him was exhausted, he still wore an idealistic smile—a smile full of hope for the future. He still believed that he would succeed in resisting the Jin dynasty through his own efforts.
This national hero still firmly believes that with his unwavering loyalty, he will eventually be able to recover the lost territories.
Even if teammates drag you down.
Yue Fei remained confident that he could control the game, but he didn't expect that his teammates would not only drag him down and give away kills, but also surrender. In such a situation, even Yue Fei was powerless to turn the tide.
Apart from a few people from dynasties before Yue Fei who were unaware of his origins, everyone else present understood upon seeing the banner bearing the character "Yue."
It was Yue Fei's army.
It was also Yue Fei.
Since ancient times, military strategists have invariably mentioned "Han Yu, Bai Qi, Li Yue, and Yue Fei" when discussing generals.
The character "Yue" refers to Yue Fei, Yue Pengju, who is leading his army at this moment. His military strategy was brilliant, his discipline was strict, and he possessed unwavering loyalty, which continues to inspire admiration in later generations even after a thousand years.
Even if Zheng He didn't say it aloud, he couldn't help but admire Yue Fei. His eyes were filled with admiration, and taking advantage of the free time, he quickly explained Yue Fei's deeds to everyone.
Tell the story in detail:
"Generals may not know this, but Marshal Yue was a famous general who resisted the Jin dynasty. He was a brilliant strategist and unparalleled in loyalty and righteousness. His Yue Family Army was disciplined and never committed any offenses against the people wherever they went. The people welcomed the army with food and drink. The Jin people were terrified at the mere mention of his name and once lamented, 'It is easier to shake a mountain than to shake the Yue Family Army.'"
At this point, Zheng He's tone became even more solemn: "Marshal Yue was loyal to the country and determined to 'strike the enemy's stronghold and bring back the two emperors.' However, he was framed by treacherous people and died unjustly at Fengbo Pavilion. Yet his noble spirit has endured for thousands of years, and his temple is still dedicated to him, receiving the respect of all ages."
Upon hearing this, everyone reacted with varying expressions. Bai Qi's cold and stern face twitched slightly, Huo Qubing's eyes flashed with admiration, and Zhuge Liang gently waved his feather fan, nodding and sighing, "Such a fine general is indeed worthy of respect and admiration."
"However, we do not know which period of time he came from. In my opinion, it is best not to reveal too much about later times to him."
After all, once you lose your spirit, you're finished.
He paused slightly with his feather fan, then looked up at the sky and sighed, "Oh, heavens, how cruel are you to the heroes of China?" His words were filled with endless desolation.
He couldn't help but feel a sense of kinship with Yue Fei.
Gazing upon the disciplined formation of Yue Fei's army, Zhuge Liang felt a surge of camaraderie. Both had devoted themselves to the cause, both had unfulfilled ambitions, but comparatively, his own situation was perhaps slightly better—at least the late emperor had always trusted him, and he still had loyal and brave men like Zhao Yun in the court. Yue Fei, on the other hand, faced twelve urgent summons, the rise of treacherous officials in the court, and the defection of his comrades on the battlefield.
Hearing what Zhuge Liang said, Zheng He was completely bewildered.
Ever since Du Fu learned about history, he has always been distraught, a sight that evokes deep sympathy. Is knowing the future truly a good thing?
This question inevitably arose in Zheng He's mind.
His Highness, knowing he would become the Crown Prince, would avoid many pitfalls. But what did Du Fu gain besides heartbreak and pain from knowing the future?
These historical records do not detail every crisis Du Fu encountered. Those cold words only record that "Du Fu died in Leiyang," but they cannot fully express how much bitterness the poet had to swallow along the way.
Zheng He suddenly recalled Du Fu's poems that have been passed down through the ages—"Behind the vermilion gates, meat and wine go to waste; on the road, frozen corpses lie," and "How I wish for thousands of mansions to shelter all the poor scholars of the world and bring them joy." Every line was soaked in blood and tears, every poem was tempered with suffering. This poet, who carried the sorrow of an entire era on his shoulders, was now prematurely tasting the bitter fruit of his destiny.
Having learned a lesson from Du Fu, Zheng He decided to keep quiet about Yue Fei.
I will absolutely not bring myself to say that.
I can't say it, I'd rather die than say it.
At this moment, Yue Fei strode up to Jiang Ge. Jiang Ge was finally able to examine this legendary general up close. Just by looking at his face, one could tell he was a very resolute and decisive person.
"Magistrate Jiang." Yue Fei clasped his hands in salute, his voice steady and powerful, carrying the crispness and decisiveness characteristic of a soldier.
Jiang Ge suppressed the complex emotions surging within her and stepped aside to introduce them, saying, "Marshal Yue, please allow me to introduce you to these sages of the past." She began to name them one by one, each name carrying immense weight: "This is Bai Qi, the great general of the Qin Dynasty; this is Huo Qubing, the Marquis of Champion of the Han Dynasty; this is Zhuge Liang, the Prime Minister of Shu Han..."
Upon hearing this, Yue Fei's expression hardened, and he immediately bowed respectfully. When he saw Yuchi Jingde and Qin Shubao, he was even more filled with awe: "I never expected to meet such a famous general who helped found the Tang Dynasty!" His gaze swept over everyone, finally settling on Zhuge Liang, and a barely perceptible resonance flashed in Yue Fei's eyes—a mutual appreciation for those who had also devoted themselves to the cause.
There is probably no one in this world who has been in such a difficult situation as Yue Fei, nor is there anyone who can truly empathize with him.
Until he heard, "This is Kui Shun, from the Song Dynasty."
Finally, there were people from the Song Dynasty! Yue Fei was overwhelmed with excitement. He had so many questions to ask, but they all boiled down to one:
"Was the resistance against the Jin dynasty successful?"
These five short words were asked very softly, yet it seemed to have used all his strength. Yue Fei's gaze was fixed on Wei Shun, his usually sharp, hawk-like eyes now carrying a hint of pleading. He seemed not to be the mighty Marshal Yue, but just an ordinary soldier eager to hear news of victory.
Kui Shun avoided Yue Fei's gaze. He rarely lied and had almost no experience in lying. Seeing this, Jiang Ge stood in front of Kui Shun and took over the conversation.
"General Yue, why don't you go back to the county office first and see what the rewards are?"
Jiang Ge, seemingly unintentionally, led Yue Fei into the county government office and explained to him the wonders of the items in this system's marketplace.
But seeing is believing.
When the system's shopping mall screen appeared in the sky, Yue Fei gently held his breath. Grain seeds with a yield of a thousand catties per mu, walkie-talkies that could transmit sound over a thousand miles, sharp weapons that could cut through iron like mud, and many other good things.
These are all very useful to the Song Dynasty.
Yue Fei's hands trembled slightly with excitement; he wanted them all. The people of the Song Dynasty needed these things!
"Magistrate Jiang!" Yue Fei suddenly stood up, his eyes flashing with a sharp light, his gaze as sharp as lightning fixed on Jiang Ge. "These treasures... how many can I, Yue, purchase?"
His eyes were piercing, like lightning.
How many can be purchased?
You know, the last time the Tang Dynasty gave Yue Fei a reward of 50,000 yuan, so everyone is very curious about how much Yue Fei's reward will be this time.
All eyes turned to Django.
Jiang Ge smiled and held up five fingers, indicating that it was still the same as last time, still 50,000 yuan.
Keep in mind that 50,000 yuan has considerable purchasing power.
It can buy a lot of things.
Yue Fei's gaze lingered on the tank, followed by a long string of zeros. He couldn't afford it, but he really wanted it.
Every penny of this money must be spent wisely.
His chest was filled with renewed vigor; with these things, victory against the Jin was just around the corner.
"General Yue, this is called a telescope. It can be used to observe enemy movements ten miles away," Zhuge Liang said, gently waving his feather fan and pointing to an item on the screen. His voice was steady and powerful, and his eyes gleamed with wisdom.
"These walkie-talkies, though expensive, allow military commanders to issue orders instantly, eliminating the need to rely on beacon fires," Zhou Yu added, his tone tinged with emotion.
"Potato and sweet potato seeds are drought-resistant and high-yielding, yielding several times more per acre than ordinary crops," Zhuge Liang continued. "If they can be promoted in the north, the soldiers and civilians on the border will no longer have to worry about food supplies."
A surge of warmth welled up in Yue Fei's chest, as if he could see the fields laden with the heavy harvest of autumn. He nodded solemnly and said in a deep voice, "Very well, these seeds must be purchased!"
Besides these, medicine is the most important.
Qin Shubao pointed to another item: "Antibiotics may be small, but they can save soldiers' lives. In the past, many warriors did not die from swords, but from ulcerated wounds. This can greatly reduce casualties."
Yue Fei's eyes narrowed as he thought of his comrades who had succumbed to their wounds, and a pang of pain shot through his heart. Without hesitation, he declared, "We must buy enough of this!"
Ultimately, with everyone's guidance, Yue Fei spent all 50,000 taels on the most essential items: a telescope, a steel sword, a composite bow, potato and sweet potato seeds, antibiotics, water purification tablets, a walkie-talkie, a compass... Each item was carefully considered to ensure it was used to its fullest potential.
If you don't understand these things, it's easy to waste money. Hei Fu is a good example of this; Ying Zheng was often misled by the system's store, resulting in him wasting a lot of money.
As the transaction was completed, the light screen slowly dissipated. Yue Fei gazed at the mountain of supplies before him, his heart surging with pride. With these supplies, the cause of resisting the Jin would surely be greatly strengthened!
Kui Shun was also very happy for Yue Fei.
Looking at these things, Yue Fei felt a surge of pride and asked Kui Shun the same question again:
"Was the resistance against the Jin dynasty successful?"
"It's a success."
Kui Shun answered softly, his eyes glistening with tears. He wasn't lying; it was simply how it should be.
That's how it should be.
