Chapter 265: The squeezed Yue Fei

Li Qingzhao the world, at the end of July the second year of Jianyan.

Kaifeng Mansion, Zhuludu.

At this time, twenty-five-year-old Yue Fei was stationed here.

night.

A friend of Yue Fei, Li Rui came to see him, and the two had a drink.

"Pengju, Zongze has left behind, and now Du Chong is here...You, how are you doing recently?"

Li Rui held the small wine glass, shook it, and looked up at Yue Fei.

Pengju is Yue Fei's character.

Li Rui was a close friend of Yue Fei, but he did not join the army, but was in business. In the past, he took care of Yue Fei and his family, and the relationship between the two has always been very good.

"Oh, my lord is unwilling to leave."

Thinking of Zongze, who was kind to himself, Yue Fei sighed with sorrow: "Du Chong did not follow the adult's plan for the Northern Expedition, but chose to stick to it. I suggested many times, but Du Chong ignored it..."

Zongze, but a historical celebrity.

In June last year, Zong Ze stayed in Tokyo, known Kaifeng Prefecture, recruited Wang Shan, Yang Jin and other volunteers to assist in the defense, and contacted Lianghe Wang Yan's "eight-character army" and other departments to coordinate the anti-golden defense, and appointed Yue Fei and others as generals. , Repeatedly defeated Jinbing.

Zongze has a very good use of soldiers, which makes the Jin people afraid, and even calls him "Grandpa Zong."

Zongze has always had the ambition of regaining lost land during the Northern Expedition. During his stay in Tokyo, he had written to Emperor Gaozong Zhao Gou more than 20 times, urging him to return the capital to Tokyo, and formulated a strategy for regaining the Central Plains, but none of them was adopted.

At the beginning of July of this year, Zongze died of "crossing the river" three times on his deathbed due to his high aspirations and his anxiety and anger.

"I can hear that Du Chong is greedy for life and fear of death, but he is greedy for authority and narrow-minded."

Li Rui picked up his chopsticks and ate a piece of peanuts, and then asked, "You are also a general, and you are actually being squeezed out by Du Chong at this small Zhuludu? You want to inherit Zongze's stay. Du Chong does not have the talent and courage to take the initiative to fight the golden soldiers...you and him are not the same."

This is what Yue Fei feels.

"Actually, the Golden Soldier is not strong, nor is my Da Song soldier weak. As long as you dare to work hard, the enemy will not worry about it...however..."

Yue Fei drooped his head and drank a glass of wine.

"Is there any way? Even if there is such a talent as Zongze staying behind, Jin Bing is afraid. But it can't change the overall situation."

Li Rui said casually: "I see, the main reason is that the imperial court is incompetent. The emperor is faint, weak and afraid of death, so he dare not fight! ... Even if you win the battle, the emperor may not be happy, maybe worry about angering Jin. Soldiers, and blame you.

One will be incompetent, exhausting the three armies.I think that if an emperor is incompetent, he can only perish his country!"

"Brother Li, you..."

Yue Fei was surprised and rarely heard that Li Rui was so insightful.

Although he was disrespectful to the emperor, Yue Fei often complained about the emperor.Especially after Zongze was unwilling to die.

"Hehe... don't be surprised, these are all what I see from above."

Li Rui took out a newspaper from his arms. It was founded by Li Qingzhao, Zhan Yaru, Dugu Jialuo, Wu Zetian and others, and distributed it secretly.

"Tabloid?"

There were private tabloids in the Song Dynasty, which Yue Fei had seen, but it was rare to see them in the chaos of war over the years.

"Yes, nor is it."

Li Rui handed the newspaper to Yue Fei and said: "Let's take a look, there are many statements on it, I think it is quite correct. Especially, the analysis of the Song and Jin war and the prediction of the future situation are very insightful."

"I am very curious to hear you say that."

Yue Fei took the newspaper and opened it.

When Yue Fei was reading the newspaper, Li Rui picked the important thing in the newspaper and said:

"The newspaper said that the imperial court's blind retreat would make the Jin Bing advance an inch. With Zongze staying behind, it is estimated that within a month, the Jin Bing will raise his troops to the south in an attempt to destroy the Song Dynasty."

"Furthermore, the Emperor Song Dynasty will definitely flee after hearing the wind. Du Chong is greedy and afraid of death. He will not guard Kaifeng Mansion, and will inevitably retreat in the name of protecting the emperor... Jiang Zhibei will be completely taken away by the Golden Soldiers.

It is not impossible for Da Song to be destroyed!"

While listening, Yue Fei read the newspaper, occasionally showing shock, occasionally becoming worried and occasionally sighing.

After Yue Fei finished reading the newspaper, he looked solemnly and said, "Before the adult is dying, there is something to say. After his death, Jin Bing will definitely take the opportunity to go south. But Du Chong would not listen..."

Looking up at the moonlight outside the window, he sighed, "This big Han river and mountain, don't you? Let the golden soldiers go south, burn, kill and loot everywhere, and abandon the people?"

"Hey, what can you do? You are willing to fight, but the emperor is not willing, so what can you do?"

Li Rui persuaded: "Pengju, I don't think you should be a soldier here, or you will die here sooner or later. Why don't you leave with me and go to Jiangnan to escape?"

Although he knew Li Rui was kind, Yue Fei shook his head and said:

"From the moment I joined the army, I have put my life and death aside, and I hope I can serve my country faithfully, after death!"

Li Rui also knew about what Yue Fei's mother wrote to Yue Fei about "serving the country faithfully".

"Brother Li, if I die in battle unfortunately, I still hope to take care of my family." Yue Fei stood up and said.

"Pengju, what are you doing?"

Li Rui said displeased: "You and I are friends, so naturally I will help. But I still want to say that your loyalty is just foolishness!... The Song Dynasty court is already rotten and it is not worth your life for it!"

"Do not!"

Yue Fei shook his head and said, "I'm not working for the court, but I'm just doing my best to protect my family and the country! ... If the Jinbing destroys the Song Dynasty, do we still have a family?

Some things must be done when a man is alive!"

Yes, the court was corrupt and incompetent, Yue Fei knew something in his heart.

But he will still choose to stay, just to defend his family and the country!

"Protect the home and the country!"

Li Rui was touched and said, "Yes, not for the court, but to protect the family and the country, and not to let foreigners bully."

As he said, Li Rui stopped, looked at Yue Fei solemnly, and tentatively asked: "Pengju, if there are people with lofty ideals like you, in order to protect your family, you are willing to rise up and fight against Jin Bing, and at the same time resist. The corrupt court... Are you willing to join them?"
