Yang Jiajiang's detailed information and list.

In Daixian County, Shanxi Province, there is a bell and drum tower with great spirit. On the front and back, there are two huge plaques, namely "Three passes of the heroic earthquake" and "Four Great Classical Novels". Legend has it that this is a precious cultural relic that has been handed down to this day to commemorate Yang Jiajiang's immortal feats.

When it comes to Yang Jiajiang, the first thing people think of is Yang Ye. In the history, this famous generation of famous generals joined the Northern Han regime in Taiyuan in the year of weak crown, and was trusted by the Northern Han emperor to serve as the capital Hou Xinwei. At that time, Song Taizu and Zhao Kuangyin had seized the regime of the Later Zhou Dynasty and established the Dasong Dynasty, and the overall situation of national reunification was set. Yang Ye put forward the proposal of "returning the country to the Song Dynasty" to the Northern Han Emperor Liu Jiyuan, which met with opposition. However, he was deeply grateful for Liu's kindness. He did not change his mind to vote for Song, but gave his life to defend the Northern Han regime. Later, the Northern Han Dynasty was defeated, but Yang Ye still struggled with Song Jun in the south of the city. Song Taizong had long heard that Yang Ye was a brave general, so he sent his cronies to surrender. When Yang Ye saw the envoy sent by Liu Jiyuan, he wept bitterly and surrendered to the Song Dynasty. Song Taizong, because he was "old in frontier affairs and well versed in the times", appointed him as the left general, knowing that Daizhou and Sanjiaokou were deployed with military forces stationed in the berth, and Pan Mei was deployed with Hedong Sanjiaokou to shoulder the heavy responsibility of defending the Khitan in Shanxi. As a matter of fact, Pan Renmei is just a hollow name, and all the burdens are on Yang Ye, who is at the front of Daizhou.

Yang Ye was good at riding and shooting since he was a child, and he loved hunting, and his martial arts was also high. Every time he hunts, he always gets twice as much as others. He said to his companions, "I will lead troops to fight in the future, just like a falcon chasing rabbits."

Yang Ye lived up to Song Taizong's great trust, and successively built six soldier villages: Wu Yang Village, Hunzhai Village, Xisongsai Village, Yueru Village, Hugu Village and Dashi Village (all in Fan Shi County). In March of the fifth year of Taiping and Xingguo (AD 980), 100,000 people from the Khitan army came to attack Yanmen. Yang Ye led his troops to intercept and surprise attack, defeated the Khitan army, killed the second, Xu and Xiao Duli, and captured Li Chonghai alive. From then on, when the enemy soldiers saw the banner of "Yang", they were frightened to disgrace and retreated without fighting, calling Yang Ye "invincible Yang". Therefore, the imperial court promoted him to the secretariat of Yunzhou, and he still knew Daizhou. Yang Ye was stationed in Yanmenguan for eight years, but the Khitan army never dared to invade.

Yang Ye's outstanding military exploits made some narrow-minded colleagues jealous. Some people wrote anonymous letters to Song Taizong to slander Yang Ye. Song Taizong didn't believe it, but he sealed these slanderers and gave them to Yang Ye to show his trust.

In the first month of the third year of Yongxi (AD 986), in order to completely solve the border harassment caused by Qidan, Song Taizong insisted on an all-round attack on Qidan and ordered three divisions to carry out the northern expedition: on the East Road, Cao Bin and Cui led the main forces to attack Youzhou from Xiongzhou in the north; Zhonglutian re-entered the command and Dingzhou attacked the flying fox; The West Road was commanded by Pan Mei and Yang Ye, leaving Yanmenguan and attacking Shuozhou (now Shuoxian County, Shanxi Province), Huan (now Shuoxian East, Shanxi Province), Yun (now datong county, Shanxi Province) and Ying (now Yingxian County, Shanxi Province). The ultimate goal is to join forces with the three armed forces in Youzhou and fight with Qidan. The Third Route Army advanced at the same time, and the Eastern Route Army just attacked and met the main force of the Khitan, and was defeated by Qigou Pass. The middle route army heard that the East Road was defeated and lost without a fight; Only two months ago, the marked armies in Pan Mei and Yang Ye were fruitful, and they recovered Shuozhou, Atlas, Yunying, Yingzhou and other places, and arrived at Sanggan River. However, due to the rout of the defenders in the East and China, they became alone. After the Khitan defeated Song Jun in the East Road and the Middle Road, he mobilized hundreds of elite troops to press on to the Atlas State occupied by Pan and Yang. The court ordered Pan and Yang Lingbing to escort people from Shuozhou, Yunzhou and Yingzhou to Daizhou immediately. Under the circumstances of Enemy at the Gates at that time, it was very difficult to accomplish this task. After careful consideration, Yang Ye put forward a feasible plan: First, send someone to inform the commanders of Yunzhou and Shuozhou to let Yunzhou people go out first when our army leaves Daizhou and goes north. When our army arrives in Yingzhou, the Khitan will definitely send troops to fight. At this time, the people of Shuozhou were ordered to go out of the city to meet the enemy, and cavalry 1 0,000 archers were sent to guard Taniguchi, so that the people could move in safely.

Director Wang Shen and coach Pan Mei are firmly opposed to Yang Ye's practical plan. In order to succeed, they forced Yang Ye to lead the troops against Atlas State. Wang Xian said, "You have tens of thousands of elite soldiers. Why are you so timid? You should go straight out of Yanmenguan and go north! " Yang Ye said, "No, you can only fail." Said insidiously, "Didn't you say that Yang is invincible? Why dare not confront the enemy head-on? Do you still have ulterior motives? " Yang Ye said angrily, "I'm not afraid of death, but I want to minimize the loss and fulfill the mission entrusted by the emperor. Since you ask me this question, well, I'll go now. " When he left, Yang Ye said to Pan Mei in tears, "This time, I will definitely lose. I am a general of the Northern Han Dynasty, and I am grateful to the Emperor. I am willing to die for my country. " He pointed to Chenjiagu (now south of Shuoxian County, Shanxi Province) and said, "You must arrange strong archers on both wings. When I move here, you will send troops to attack, or we will be wiped out. " After that, Yang jiye set off with his troops. After two fierce battles, Yang Ye was defeated because he was outnumbered. When he retreated to Chenjiagu, Wang Xian and Pan Mei had left Taniguchi with their troops, and Yang Jiye was trapped. Although he fought bravely, he was outnumbered and seriously injured. He fell from his horse and was captured, and finally died of hunger strike. His son air billow also died in this battle.

According to historical records, besides Yan Yu, Yang Ye's sons include Yan Lang, Yan Pu, Yan Xun, Yan Huan, Yan Gui and Yan Bin.

Yang Yanlang was later renamed Zhao Yan, and people called him "Yang Liulang". He is brave and good at fighting, and his orders are strict. He was also a famous soldier in the Northern Song Dynasty. When he was a child, Yang was influenced by his father and liked to play military games. Yang Ye often says to people, "This child is the most like me." Take him to the battlefield every time you fight. During the war, he quickly developed into a brave general. In the third year of Yongxi (AD 986), Yang Ye led an army to northern expedition to Ying and Shuo, sent Yang and fought fiercely with the Khitan army at the gates of Shuozhou. Zhao Yan was shot through the arm by random arrows, but he didn't mind. He fought the enemy even harder. In the winter of the second year of Song Zhenzong Xianping (AD 999), the Khitan army launched a large-scale military attack on the Song Dynasty again, and Song Jun fell one after another. At this time, Yang was guarding Sui City (now west of xushui county, Hebei). Under the siege of Qidan, the city is small and unprepared, and everyone is in danger. Yang quietly led his troops into the city to stick to it without panic. He asked the soldiers to ice the wall with water to make it firm and smooth. The Khitan army could not capture the city, so it had to attack other places by a detour. After the death of Yang Ye, Yang Shoubei defeated the Khitan army for more than twenty years, and inherited and carried forward the Yang family's fine family style of "serving the country faithfully".

The third generation is my son and a famous border guard in Song Dynasty. During Song Renzong's time, he served as a general guarding the border between Hebei and Shaanxi. When guarding Shaanxi, it was mainly to defend the Xixia kingdom from the intrusion of the Central Plains.

This is how Yang Jiajiang has done its duty to defend the motherland from generation to generation. Their deeds continue to enter legends, stories, drama stage and film and television drama creation. Ouyang Xiu, a famous writer in the Northern Song Dynasty, praised Yang Ye and Yang, saying that "father and son are both famous, and their wisdom and courage are invincible. Up to now, people in the world, as far as Lear Tree is concerned, can tell the truth. " During the Song and Yuan Dynasties, folk artists adapted Yang Jiajiang's story into a drama and put it on the stage. In the Ming Dynasty, folk writers compiled their stories into Legend of Yang Jiajiang and Biography of Yang Jiajiang, which were widely circulated among the people in the form of novel storytelling. These legends and stories describe Yang Jiajiang's heroic fighting and sacrifice in a very detailed and touching way. They also portrayed Pan Renmei, a hero of the Song Dynasty, as a great traitor as a foil, which made Yang Jiajiang's heroic image and aristocratic family style more tall and perfect. Seven Langs and Eight Tigers broke the secluded state and fought bloody battles on a golden beach, led by Mu, a female general of Yangmen, and led by She Taijun's 12-year-old widow's Western Expedition, and ... the vivid image of patriots is widely circulated in the world, so that everyone can't tell which are historical facts and which are legends and legends.

For Yang Jiajiang's fine family style of loyal service to the country passed down from generation to generation, and for a family's loyal and brave behavior of defending the motherland, people tell them, remember them, love them, respect them, and set up a monument for them in various forms.

Under Yanmenguan, there is a village called Ludijian, which is famous for Yangjia ancestral hall. There are more than 65,438+0,000 people in the village, more than half of whom are descendants of the Yang family.

The Yangjia Ancestral Hall was built in the Yuan Dynasty, which is the most complete existing Yangjia Ancestral Hall in China. After Yang Ye's death, he was named "Taiwei" by posthumous title and "Zhongwu" by posthumous title. Later generations named Yang Zhongwu Ancestral Hall, commonly known as "Yangjia Ancestral Hall".

There is a unique and beautifully carved deer hoof stone in front of the ancestral hall. According to legend, when Sun Zhen of 14th Yang Ye was guarding Daizhou, he went out hunting one day and killed a sika deer. The deer ran away with an arrow, and You Yang chased it to Ludijian Village now, and the sika deer suddenly got into the ground. You Yang ordered people to dig, and dug out a strange stone, which was engraved with the pattern of sika deer with arrows and had obvious deer hoof prints. Later, people moved this strange stone back to the temple for storage, hence the name Ludijian Village.

For many years, in order to remember the noble feelings of our ancestors' loyalty to the country, Ludijian Village held a village festival every year, and every year the village festival had to sing operas, including Yang Jiajiang Opera.

"Bloody Battle on Golden Beach" is the most tragic and tragic battle in the legend of General Yang. In this fierce battle, among the seven dragons and eight tigers, Dalang, Jiro, died in battle, Shiro was captured, and Goro became a monk. More than half of the people in the whole Yang family died in the war. The drama Golden Beach shows the tragic story of this hero. However, the villagers in Lukoujian watched all the plays except Golden Beach.

It is said that one spring, when the village was singing a drama, the opera producer ordered "Golden Beach". Strange to say, before the performance, it was sunny and dusty. After the play began, the Khitan soldiers violently attacked Yang Jiajiang. At this moment, a strong wind suddenly blew, flying sand and stones, yellow dust rolling, and it was dark. There was chaos on and off the stage, and the "Khitan soldiers" on the stage had to retreat. After the sandstorm, the audience sat down a little and the stage began to bang again. Lao Yang mobilized the masses to fight and led the troops to meet them. When Jiro and Saburo died tragically on the battlefield, a dark cloud suddenly rolled in from the northwest. In a flash, after the storm, thunder and lightning, pouring rain fell from the sky, and the whole venue became a stormy world.

After the storm, people said: This is the retribution of our ancestors. They don't want us to mention those sad things again. Let's make a scene. Don't make them unhappy. Ok, from now on, we will play Yangjiaqing and never play Golden Beach again. Then I changed to another play. Strangely, it has been sunny for several days in a row.

Of course, this is just a folklore, and people don't need to examine its authenticity. However, it is true that people in Rutijian village never watch the play "Golden Beach". Because they don't want to recall the sad past of their ancestors, and they don't want this tragic scene to disturb their spirits in heaven again. What they expect is a world without aggression, without war, only with peace and tranquility.

The great spirit of serving the country courageously, which is condensed in the legendary story of General Yang, is a kind of sustenance for China people to resist aggression, defend the motherland and pursue peace and good hope in the face of thousands of years of invasion and bullying by western powers. In pursuit of this hope, Yang Leling died, and Yang (the son of Zong Bao) continued to fight. When a man dies, women such as She Taijun and Mu Guiying continue to fight; When the master dies, Yang Paifeng and other servants and maids will continue to fight. In the history of China, the Yang Jiajiang family is by no means the only example of this loyal family style. In Shaanxi alone, there are the Xue family generals of Xue, Zhou and Hu, and the Hu family generals of Huyan Zan and Hu. The legends and stories of these generals reflect each other, full of strong patriotism and shining with brilliant idealism.

Outside Yanmenguan, Yang Jiajiang once fought on the ancient battlefield named Golden Beach, which used to be a sword. The bonfire of smoke has long gone with the wheel of history. Today's golden beach, looking around, is shaded by trees, flourishing and fruitful, and has become an orchard with a fragrance of ten miles.

When we pass here by the Beitongpu train, the train announcer or other people who know this place will always point out the window and say, "Look, this is the golden beach where Yang Jiajiang fought." The audience turned their attention to the outside of the car, looked at this unrecognizable old place, remembered the deeds about Yang Jiajiang, and raised their reverence in their hearts.

Under the romance of novelists, many characters and stories were born in Yang Jiajiang, and these stories are still continuing today. Add these truthfulness and romance together, and there are several people: Yang Ye, air billow Eight Tigers, Eight Sisters and Nine Sisters. Zong Mian, Zong Ying, Yang,,. Yang Zhi, a Liangshan hero, is also a descendant of Yang Jiajiang. Like Hu, he has been framed for serving his country many times. A few years after Liangshan dispersed, nomads from the army invaded, and Yang Zaixing, a general in Yue Fei's army, was said to be a descendant of Yang Jiajiang.

Today, Mr Jin Yong wrote the story of Yang Jiajiang into his novel. Yang Tiexin and Guo Xiaotian in the legend of the condor heroes are Yang Zaixing and Guo Sheng, the Liangshan hero "Sai Gui Ren". The names of Guo Jing and Yang Kang are probably the earliest known figures of Jin Yong. Then, Yang Guo in The Condor Heroes moved another generation. In "Eternal Dragon Slayer", the girl surnamed Yang, who has the tomb of the living dead at the foot of Zhongnan Mountain, used a passage from "Jiuyin".

Yang Jiajiang, Xue Jia and Hu Jiajiang have gone far beyond the historical scope and sublimated into an indomitable national spirit, inspiring generations of China to work hard for the rejuvenation of China.

[Edit this paragraph] The real Yang Jiajiang in history.

Yang Ye's real name is Yang Chonggui, and his father Yang Xin is a local tyrant in Linzhou. During the Five Dynasties chaos, he occupied Linzhou and claimed to be the secretariat. Due to the turbulent situation, he joined the Hou Han and the Hou Zhou. About the time when Yang Xin joined the Later Han Dynasty, in order to make friends with Liu Chong, who was appointed as our envoy in Hedong at that time, the young Yang Chonggui was sent to Taiyuan. After Yang Xin took refuge in the Zhou Dynasty, Yang Chonggui stayed in Taiyuan. After the death of Yang Xin, he and his son Yang Chongxun (Yang Ye's younger brother) succeeded the secretariat and joined Liu Chong in the Northern Han Dynasty with Linzhou. Later Yang Chongxun joined the Zhou Dynasty. Despite this repetition, Yang Chonggui's life in Taiyuan was not affected by the chaotic and special times of the Five Dynasties. Young and brave Yang Chonggui is highly valued by Liu Chong. He adopted Yang Chonggui as his adopted grandson and changed his name to Liu. Liu initially served as the defense commander and was famous for his bravery. Because of his merits, he was promoted to the army of Xiong Jian. Because of his outstanding military exploits, Liu was invincible, and the people of China called him invincible. However, Liu's achievements in the Northern Han Dynasty for more than 30 years were lost in the vast history. History of Song Dynasty and History of Liao Dynasty are short of such records. Several encounters with Liu mentioned in the History of Song Dynasty all ended in failure. Liu and Song Jiangjun fought at the gates of Taiyuan and were defeated by Shu soldiers. Liu Xian hid his treasure in a trench, and then escaped by the ropes hanging in the city. I don't know why such a messy record has become invincible. In Zi Zhi Tong Jian, it is only mentioned that Liu fought bloody battles in Taiyuan Chengtou, and even after Liu Jiyuan, the main commander of the Northern Han Dynasty, surrendered, he still insisted on fighting. Until Song Taizong sent Liu Jiyuan to surrender, Liu Cai surrendered in tears. The text describing this history is only a few crosses, which is very short. At the same time, the Records of Nine Kingdoms recorded Liu's achievements, but it is a pity that the record of this history has not spread to today. In the history of the Liao Dynasty, there was a general of the Liao State. Ye Lvxie asked Yang Ye, saying, How did you win the battle with China for more than 30 years? It can be seen that Liu's main opponent in the Northern Han Dynasty was Liao. Although the Northern Han Dynasty has always been the minister of the Liao State, the powerful Liao State often invaded the border of the Northern Han Dynasty, and Wei Liu defended the border of the Northern Han Dynasty. It is estimated that they often confront the invading Liao army. Although small in scale, he has not been at a disadvantage for more than 30 years. These experiences have enabled Liu to accumulate rich frontier defense experience.

After the demise of the Northern Han Dynasty, Liu surrendered to the Northern Song Dynasty, which was called Liu's prestige, and made him the left governor and Zhengzhou defense envoy. After Liu Huisong, he resumed his surname Yang and became a single name. Song Taizong, relying on Yang Ye's rich experience in protecting Liao, sent him to Daizhou to deploy troops stationed in Sanjiao to control Pan Mei. The Liao army attacked from Yanmen, and Yang Ye led hundreds of cavalry around the rear of the Liao army from the path, and attacked the Liao army with Pan Mei's troops before and after, killing Xiao Duo Li, our time in Liao country, and commanding Li Chongfa to capture military forces. Yang Ye was promoted to Yunzhou Secretariat. Liao saw the banner of Yangye and left without a fight. The head of the border guards stayed away from Yang Ye's reputation and wrote to Song Taizong many times to slander Yang Ye. Song Taizong gave it to Yang Ye to show his trust in Yang Ye. In fact, Yang Ye's detractor is probably Pan Mei. Pan Mei has long been jealous of Yang Ye, and this kind of psychology will be shown at special moments. In the third year of Yongxi, he led three armies to conquer Liao, with Pan Mei as the standard army general and Yang Ye as the lieutenant. At first, everything went smoothly. Yang Ye captured the four states of the Liao State, namely, Atlas, Shuozhou, Yunying, but Cao Bin, the main force in the middle road, was defeated. Song Taizong ordered passers-by to move troops, and later ordered Pan Mei and others to move the army of the people who had recovered four states to the mainland. At that time, more than 100,000 troops of Liao had fought back and breached the state of Atlas. Liao army has great advantages. The task of Yang Ye and others is just to move people, without hitting the enemy. He suggested that Pan Mei adopt a foolproof plan.

Yang Ye's death in Liao history shows their fear of Yang Ye. The achievements recorded in the Song Dynasty in seizing four states in Shanxi were all attributed to Pan Mei. However, it is recorded in Liao history that Yang Ye captured these cities, and Liao confronted Yang Ye. He really knew his own record. Yang Ye's fighting spirit and achievements can be seen. However, according to the records of the play, historians in Song Dynasty recorded its merits and demerits and buried Yang Ye.

The representative of the second generation is Yang Ye's son Yang. Yang's real name is Yang Yanlang, but she changed her name to Yang out of taboo. Yang was quiet when he was young, but he always liked to play marching games. Yang Ye said after reading it: "This kind of me." After this war, Yang will be taken with him. Yang grew up in such an environment and became a professional soldier as an adult.

In the Northern Expedition in the third year of Yongxi, when Yang went out to attack Shuozhou with his father and brother, Yang, as a striker, was shot through his arm with an arrow that left the string, but he fought more bravely. After Yang Ye's death, Yang was promoted from a sacrificial officer to an agreement of a sacrificial ceremony. Later, he served as the governor of Baozhou border defense and worked in Hebei border area. In the second year of Xianping in the Northern Song Dynasty, Liao invaded the south. Yang is in Suicheng, a small city, and he is not prepared to defend himself. Surrounded by the Liao army, the people in the city were in panic. Yang summoned the able-bodied men in the city, distributed weapons, cooperated with them, and stuck to it with all his might. At that time, it was the middle of winter. Yang ordered people to carry water and pour it on the wall, and it became solid ice overnight. The walls were smooth and difficult to climb, so the Liao army's fierce offensive could not continue and had to retreat. Song Jun seized the military equipment abandoned by the Liao army. Yang saved the city with his clever plan and showed his military talent, so he was named the secretariat. During the invasion of southern Liaoning, Fu Qian, who was deployed to pacify Levin Guandu, led heavy troops to Zhongshan. He stayed at the station, passively avoided the war and did not take the initiative to attack the invading Liao army. General Yang, Shi Pu and other generals repeatedly asked Fu Qian to send more troops and take the initiative to attack, but Fu Qian refused to listen and retreated to Zhongshan. Even though his generals attacked and won, Fu Qian concealed their achievements. Later, Song Zhenzong got the report and released Fu Qianliu. So I summoned Yang and asked him about the border defense strategy. Very satisfied with Yang's performance, praised Yang's March and gave him a generous reward. In the fourth year of Xianping, Liao attacked south again. Yang ambushed the elite soldiers in Yangshan, led the troops to confront the Liao army, lured the Liao army into an ambush and attacked the ambush. Liao army was defeated and Liao generals were killed. Yang Yingong was appointed ambassador extraordinary and plenipotentiary. He and Yang Si, another border guard at that time, were also called Yang Er. The outstanding achievements of Yang and others also aroused the envy of some people in the imperial court. He once said to the Prime Minister, "Inherit Zhao, carry forward Zhao, go out, be brave and self-reliant. I will be jealous of many people in North Korea and I will do my best to protect it. " In the fifth year of Xianping, Liao attacked Baozhou, and Yang led the troops to support it. Before the formation, it was raided by the Liao army, and the troops suffered great losses. Song Zhenzong, famous for his loyalty and bravery, pardoned their crimes. Yang still serves as ambassador extraordinary and plenipotentiary. In the sixth year of Xianping, Yang was appointed to inspect the border area, and then transferred to the Yongbyon Army for deployment. In the first year of Jingdezhen, Yang's military forces were increased to tens of thousands. If Liao invades, he will be stationed in the east of Jingrong Army, promising him to act cheaply even if he doesn't listen and deploy Wang Chao's command. In the battle of Dexian, Yang opposed peace talks. He wrote: Khitan traveled thousands of miles to the north, and his troops were insufficient, although they were easy to lose. Where there is looting, lead the army to mount the horse, and hope that the armies will seize its main road and make all the people annihilated. That is, quiet and relaxed. Can be attacked and captured. Yang's opinion coincides with that of Kou Zhun at that time, but the Northern Song Dynasty did not respond to it. The army led by Yang entered the territory of Liao, breached the ancient city and achieved great success. In the later days, Yang was promoted repeatedly because of his contribution to border defense. In the second year of Jingde, Yang was awarded the official team to deploy Levin. Yang lived in Dazhong for seven years and died at the age of 57. Song Zhenzong was very sad when he heard the news. He sent messengers to protect the ghost and bring it back. The people of Heshuo look forward to tears and cry for them. In the Northern Song Dynasty, the court appointed three sons of Yang as officials, and often openly selected talented people from Yang.

Yang is brave and good at fighting, and all the rewards he gets are given to his subordinates, regardless of personal interests. He has a simple style and strict orders. He shared weal and woe with his foot soldiers and inherited Yang Ye's style. Yang took the lead in every battle, won the honor and shared it with his subordinates, so his subordinates were happy to work for him. Yang has been guarding the frontier fortress for more than 20 years, and the Liao state is very awed by him and calls him.

Yang happened to be in the period of defending Liao country in the Northern Song Dynasty. He fought to defend the frontier of the Song Dynasty, won the love of the people, and continued the reputation of Yang Jiajiang.

Yang is Yang's son. Yang Xiang paid tribute to Haiyou Zhang, a thief in the class, and gave him an inscription. Later, I met Fan Zhongyan who appeased Shaanxi. Fan Zhongyan found that Yang was very talented in the conversation and took him with him. Di Qingnan conquered Guangxi and Yang followed the army, but at this time, Yang was still a nobody. In Zhiping, General Su Wei was chosen. After that, he thought that Yang was a famous star, and there was still merit, so he promoted Yang to be the state ambassador, commanded the Dragon Shenwei's four compartments, and moved the defense ambassador of Xingzhou, with Qin Wei as the deputy governor. Therefore, he participated in the defensive action against Xixia. Han Qi sent Yang Lingbing to build a city as an infant, control the main roads and defend Xixia. Yang Xian threatened to build a city by spraying beads, and then rushed to his infancy with a great army, arrived at his destination at dusk, built the city and village overnight, built fortifications and prepared for the battle. The next morning, the Xixia cavalry arrived, and when they saw that Song Jun occupied favorable terrain, they were ready and had to retreat. Yang took the opportunity to send troops to attack and captured many enemies. The emperor issued a letter of commendation and rewarded him, and appointed him as the Rongjun of Jingzhou Town, the deputy general manager of Dingzhou Road, and moved the capital to Hou Yujun. There is a dispute between Liao State and Song Dynasty on the boundary division of Daizhou. Yang presented the battle map and the strategy of capturing Youyan to the imperial court. Before the court replied, Yang died in office, and the Northern Song Dynasty court posthumously presented him as the secretariat of the same state.

As the third generation, Yang did not make achievements comparable to those of his ancestors, because the Northern Song Dynasty had made peace with Liao at this time, and his policy towards Xixia was vacillating between peace and war, just defending. However, Yang inherited the tradition of loyalty to the country from generation to generation, and did not forget the ideal of recovering the secluded swallow and pacifying the north. Three generations are still working hard for this goal. However, in the Song Dynasty at this time, the accumulated disadvantages were deep, and the ethos of "suppressing martial arts by writing" became a reality. Yang's ideal of fighting is difficult to realize.

Yang Ye, Yang and Yang are the main figures in history. The story of three generations of Yang Jiajiang who fought bloody battles to serve the country was celebrated by later generations. Yang Ye and Yang, in particular, became famous all over the world in the Northern Song Dynasty. Ouyang Xiu wrote in the epitaph of Yang Jun, deputy envoy of the Ministry of Finance: "Both father and son are famous soldiers, and their wisdom and courage are invincible. So far, people in the world can learn from each other. " The father and son here refer to Yang Ye and Yang, yes, the agreement, named Elgin, grandfather is Yang Chongxun and grandfather is Yang Ye. The Song Dynasty was weak and finally destroyed by foreign enemies, so the adherents paid more attention to the generals who fought bloody battles to defend their country. So the story of Yang Jiajiang was widely circulated. In the process of circulation, people added many magical characters and stories. In the "embers" written by the adherents of the southern song dynasty, we put our achievements in and created Yang's deeds as. He also invented the story that Yang Jiajiang and his son rescued Song Taizong. In Yuan Zaju, there are many plays about Yang Jiajiang, such as Haotian Pagoda Meng Liang Stealing Bones.

In fact, there was no She Taijun or Mu in history.

It should be Wang Xian who killed Yang Ye, not Pan Mei. Wang Xi is a villain. He started by framing his boss. See chapter 5 of Liu E's Xixia Uprising. Perhaps the official position is too small to highlight the Yang family, so Pan Mei unfortunately stood out in this matter.

Why is Yang screaming?

According to the legend of General Yang in past dynasties, Yang was regarded as the sixth son, so he was called. But according to historical records, Yang should be the eldest son.

Liao people are superstitious, thinking that the sixth star in the Big Dipper in the sky is dedicated to Liao countries, because Yang is a deterrent to Liao people. Liao people thought he was the reincarnation of the sixth star, so they called him Yang Liulang.
