Chapter 142: Expedition I (Pink 270+)

After listening to An Zichang's suggestion, Xiao Shiji was a little moved.

"Now that Daqi is determined, in fact, there are still many internal and external troubles. There are Xue family father and son in the west, Liu Heida in the east, Liu Zhou and Turks in the north, and Xiao Milling and Li Zitong in the south. Xiao Shiji stood up, touched his chin with one hand, and paced back and forth in the study.

Xu Yanhui didn't understand these and drank tea silently.

Xu Yanbang and An Zichang glanced at each other, and they both saw surprise in each other's eyes.

Xiao Shiji is just a sixth-rank subordinate official of King Yijun, and he usually does some unsavory things, and they didn't expect him to be very proficient in military affairs.

An Zichang suggested that Xiao Shiji follow King Yijun on the expedition, originally thinking that in this way he could follow King Yijun and be an entourage, so that he could mix up some military merits and come back to be rewarded.

Now it seems that Xiao Shiji's ability is more than that.

An Zichang was interested, sat up straight and asked him, "In your opinion, which way should you use troops first?" ”

Xiao Shi thought about this question early on. His art of war, except for the fact that he learned from several masters when he was a child, all other foundations were laid for him by Du Hengshuang's father Du Xiancheng. Except for Du Xiancheng, no one knows that he has a strong army, and in addition to the kung fu in his hands, he is also very strategic.

"The foundation of Daqi is in Guanzhong. We should first consolidate Guanzhong, and then take Kanto. That is to say, after consolidating in the pass, go out of the pass and annihilate these remnants one by one.

"Go on." An Zichang was very interested.

Xiao Shiji continued: "But there is an important premise for freeing up your hands to consolidate Guanzhong and take Guandong. Even the Turks in the north will not follow the south. - In the final analysis, Daqi's real henchmen are not on the outside. If you want to deter the Central Plains, you should actually take the lead and fight a war against the Turks. ”

An Zichang nodded appreciatively, "Shiji, now you should follow King Yijun on the expedition." You have the talent of a general, and being a six-grade cavalry captain is really condescending. ”

Xiao Shiji didn't care about this, and smiled. "If you have the opportunity to follow you to the battlefield. I'm going to give it a try. But after saying that, he shook his head, "But this time, I won't join in the fun." ”

"Why is that?" Even Xu Yanhui was surprised.

The reward of the Great Qi is the thickest military merit.

Siu Shik and capable. On the ball. There is also the solid backing of King Yijun. How could you give up such a good opportunity?

Xiao Shiji was a little embarrassed, hesitated for a while, but still told them the truth. “…… Uchiko is pregnant. ”

Bang Dang!

The tea set in Xu Yanhui's hand slipped from his hand to the ground paved with terrazzo bluestone floor tiles in a daze, and shattered.

Xu Yanbang coughed hurriedly and covered up: "What a coincidence, my sister-in-law is also pregnant." ”

Xu Yanhui just married a daughter-in-law at the end of last year, and it has only been more than a month, and she is also pregnant, much faster than Du Hengshuang.

Xiao Shiji was immediately relieved and said with a smile: "Congratulations! It turns out that Brother Xu is also going to be a father. ”

Xu Yanhui tried hard to laugh, but his face was like pasting with glutinous rice paste, and he couldn't laugh if he wanted to.

An Zichang's face also faded, and after a long time, he arched his hand and said, "Congratulations to Brother Xiao." Since your wife is pregnant, you should think about it carefully. ”

Xu Yanbang didn't think about it so much, and shouted: "It's that Shuang'er is pregnant, and it's not that he is pregnant, I'm afraid of a bird!" - Brother-in-law, let me tell you, a good man has ambitions in all directions, and a big husband must make meritorious contributions, and sealing his wife and son is the right way. Your wife is at home, there are so many people who take care of her, and your wife will often come to see her, and there are so many good men and doctors to help take care of her, what are you worried about? What's the use of you staying? You won't see a doctor, you won't help her give birth, and you'll make a mess around her. I advise you to take this opportunity to hurry out and fight. Maybe when you come back from collecting troops, your son will be born, and a knighthood will be securely in your hands! ”

Xiao Shiji's heart was pounding.

Making meritorious contributions and sealing his wife and son is the dream of every man's heart.

Xiao Shihe's desire for power is stronger than that of ordinary people. Because he knows that there is no power, they will only let people eat meat, just like his father Xiao Xiangsheng, who is a big salt merchant in Chang'an City, and the "Wai Lang" of the imperial seal of the emperor of the previous dynasty, but in the face of real power, a merchant like them is a fattened pig to be slaughtered. The richer you are, the better you are......

Xu Yanbang's words really make sense.

An Zi saw that Xiao Shiji seemed to be moved, and got up with a smile and said, "You have to discuss this matter with someone earlier." ”

Xiao Shihe understood, sent the three of them away, turned around and went to the Yijun Palace.

When he arrived at the palace of King Yijun, King Yijun had not yet returned from the palace.

Xiao Shiji waited until it was dark before King Yijun arrived home.

Listening to Xiao Shiji's words, King Yijun also became serious, quickly recruited his henchmen and staff to discuss, and left Xiao Shiji behind to serve together.

Xiao Shiji no longer hid his clumsiness, and said his thoughts one by one.

King Yijun was sad at the same time, but he was also very pleased with his luck. - Xiao Shi and this person, he still underestimated him. This time, he must give him more opportunities. If he is really talented, let him always do those unsightly personnel, he is really wronged.

Xiao Shiji stayed in the Yijun Palace, and did not return home until almost dawn.

Du Hengshuang went to bed early last night and hasn't gotten up today.

Xiao Shiji went back to the room and saw Du Hengshuang sleeping soundly, so he felt a little guilty, but he quickly suppressed it, and instructed Zhihua to take care of the young grandmother, went back to the outer courtyard by himself, and began to explain to Xiao Yi the arrangements after he left.

"I left this time to go to war, and I don't know how long I will have to go. However, King Yijun said that in half a year at least or at most a year, he should be able to lay down Liu Heida in the east. It's all up to you in this house. Shuang'er, her mother's family will often come over to help. Xiao Shiji hid all the important things in the study.

Xiao Yi only felt that his scalp was numb, and he hurriedly asked, "Uncle, are you really going to war?" Do you want to bring a few more children to serve? ”

Xiao Shiji scolded with a smile: "The master is going to fight, not to Youyuan, and he also brings the maid and the mother-in-law......"

Xiao Yi rubbed his hands with a smile and said, "If you want to, uncle, I can pick the most outstanding maid to follow the uncle out together." ”

Xiao Shiji shook his head and refused, "The women I brought with me during the war were all in the red tent in the army, do you want to sell some maids to become a camp prostitute in the future?" ”

Xiao Yi hurriedly said that he didn't dare, explained the matter clearly, and asked: "Uncle, today is the second year of junior high school, and Uncle wants to take the eldest and youngest grandmother back to his parents' house." ”

Xiao Shiji sighed, walked to the porch in front of the door with his hands behind his back and stood down, looking at the solemn and elegant courtyard, "Are everything ready?" ”

Xiao Yi took out a piece of paper from his boots and asked, "Uncle look at it first." If I think it's okay, I'll talk again. ”

Xiao Shiji looked at it casually, then returned to the inner courtyard, entered his room, and saw that Du Hengshuang had woken up and was grooming in front of the dressing table.

"You all stand down, I have something to say to the young grandmother."

…… (To be continued......)

PS: There are still 3000 words left, and I will make up for it tomorrow. I was so sleepy that I couldn't open my eyes. Crawl to the Sleeping Bird ......
