Chapter 0829 A Basin of Cold Water

"It's just that the palace is in a hurry to get this ironclad cavalry army to go now, and it's not much use, right?"

After Feng Yong agreed to Zhang Xingyi, he asked again.

Although the formation of heavy cavalry is to burn money, Feng Yong is naturally not suspicious of the lack of money in the palace.

After all, over the years, the husband and wife duo of Adou and Zhang Xingcai first opened Hanzhongye and then Nanzhongye.

Relying on the development of Hanzhong and Nanzhong, these two institutions alone don't know how much money they have earned.

Not to mention that the palace was originally closely connected with the Xinghan Society.

In the earliest days, part of the industry of the Xinghan Society was still made by borrowing the skin in the palace.

Now the Xinghan Association is extremely inflated, and there is already a faint trend of the first chaebol society in the Han Dynasty.

The earliest investment in the palace is estimated to be the most successful business investment in the world.

Although the emperor and the empress are nominally the most noble couple in the world, they didn't have much time in the early years.

I've been poor for so long, I've been suffering for so long, and I suddenly have money in my hands, so I want to sigh, which is understandable.

But just like when the Xinghan Society first had to borrow qualifications from the palace.

If Adou wants to form a heavy cavalry team by himself, he must first obtain the qualification to form it.

Now the military power of the Han Dynasty is in the hands of Zhuge Old Demon.

It's hard to say whether Zhuge Old Demon will agree, even if he agrees, but what about the generals who command the cavalry?

Cavalry and foot soldiers are not the same thing.

The armor and cavalry equipment are not the same thing as the current cavalry mainstream assault rangers.

Who knew that Zhang Xingyi was grinning:

"How can it be useless? It's very useful. ”

"Huh?"

Feng Yong saw her like this, and said in his heart, is this a story?

"Tell me? In the days when I was not in Longyou, could it be that something happened in Hanzhong? ”

But seeing Zhang Xingyi shaking his head: "Of course there is something, and it is still a big deal." His Majesty came to Hanzhong a few days ago to show his will to resist thieves......"

Feng Yong sighed, "I know this!" But what does it have to do with what is happening now? ”

Speaking of which, in this matter, Feng Yong did have a different view of Adou.

At that time, everyone thought that Cao Zhen's 100,000 army was conquering Hanzhong.

Adou actually dared to go to the front line in this situation, which is not much different from the royal driver's personal expedition.

Of course, what Feng Yong admires more is Zhang Xingcai, if there is no effort behind her, with the temperament of the little fat man, it is difficult to say whether he will return to Jincheng halfway.

However, listening to his wife's words, the benefits soon became apparent.

This time, Adou's prestige soared.

Although, Cao Zhen did not go to the Meridian Valley, but Sima Yi really went to Hanshui, and even captured Xinfeng County on the border.

This wave in Hanzhong can barely be regarded as a large army pressing the border.

It's just that this time, Cao Zhen was defeated under Xiao Pass, and Meridian Valley was just a suspicious soldier, how much can Sima Yi do when he ran to Hanzhong alone?

It must be to send a wave of prestige to Adou for nothing.

It's just that you can't just brush up on your prestige, and then you want to challenge the authority of your father, right?

"The emperor and queen are in front of the army, boosting the morale of the army and the people, throughout history, how many people can there be?"

Zhang Xingyi continued to shake his head, "However, the emperor and queen are not afraid of hardships, how can the subjects put the emperor and queen in danger?" Therefore, we should rebuild the strong army in the north and south to protect the safety of the royal family......"

Feng Yong heard it and let out an "oh".

There is some truth to that...... Fart!

The so-called Northern and Southern Army, in fact, is the military system of the former Han Dynasty, with two main pawns to guard the Beijing division and the royal security.

One is the southern army, guarding Miyagi; The other is the Northern Army, which defends the Beijing Division.

However, because the main soldiers of the two armies are selected from the local area, they are rotated every year, and there are too many loopholes.

Therefore, during the period of Emperor Xiaowu, the Attendant Army and the Praetorian Guard Army were formed, and their sources of soldiers were no longer nationally levied, but fixed professional soldiers.

At this point, the emperor completely mastered the military power of the Jingshi.

Of course, Feng Junhou felt that there was a reason, and it was naturally not because of this.

Because no matter whether the military force guarding the royal family is called the Northern and Southern Army or the Praetorian Guard, this does not matter at all, the important thing is to see whose hands it is.

Feng Junhou thinks that there is a that the thieves are all in the city, so you want to form a guard military force?

The is about to pull into your pants before you think about building a thatched house?

So Feng Junhou squinted at the little lady of the Zhang family with ill intentions: "Who said this?" ”

"Prime Minister."

Oh, that's fine.

What the prime minister said, that naturally makes sense.

Feng Langjun, who was clever and eloquent, thought for a while, and then couldn't help but say:

"This, didn't the prime minister just implement the strategy of elite soldiers in front of him? It has also reduced many old and weak people in the army, so why do you want to expand the army at this time? ”

I can't figure this out!

Zhang Xingyi sighed and said with a little impatience:

"Didn't I tell you? This is the two armies of the north and the south, which are used to guard the safety of the emperor and queen. ”

it!

Feng Yong suddenly really understood: "You mean, the prime minister really agreed to let the palace pay for food to form the Northern and Southern Army?" ”

Whoever eats food must listen to whom's family, and the palace pays money and grain to form the northern and southern armies, which means that these two armies must be in the hands of the emperor.

"That's natural, otherwise the palace is in a hurry to ask for the method of forming an army of the ironclad cavalry to do something?"

At first, the size of the Northern and Southern armies would certainly not be too large.

In Adou, or Zhang Xingcai's eyes, the army that is small in scale but has great deterrent power is naturally none other than the ironclad cavalry army with 3,000 horsemen rushing through the camp of 100,000 thieves.

So it seems that the ambitions in the palace are very big.

But why did Zhuge Old Demon do this?

Although the Son of Heaven of the Han Dynasty and the Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty are currently considered to be monarchs and ministers, Adou still has to call Zhuge the old demon a father, and Zhuge Lao Demon is also strict with Adou.

But there are many times when suddenly letting go of rights is not a good thing.

It's like your own child, you used to be strict with him.

Now he is suddenly allowed to let himself go, can decide for himself whether he wants to go to class or not, and even gives him a large sum of money to spend as he pleases, and there is still a lot of money for him to spend when he is finished.

A child who is awake may wonder: Am I suffering from some terminal illness, and my days are running out?

The shallow and direct are happy and lawless.

Even if he is not terminally ill, this is definitely not to love him, but to harm him.

It has long been recorded in the history books: Zheng Boke Duan Yuyan.

Of course, Feng Yongxin can trust Zhuge Old Demon's character, and he will never hurt Adou so much.

Besides, Zhang Xingcai next to Adou is not an ornament.

However, the imperial power and the relative power were originally opposites.

If the imperial power is increased by one point, the relative power will be reduced by one point.

Coupled with the fact that people's hearts are unpredictable, who knows what will happen in the future if this opening is opened?

There are a lot of things that you can't control if you want to.

So, why?

Feng Junhou was cheated by the prime minister of the Han Dynasty many times, and at this time, there is no need to think about it, just by smelling it with his nose, he can smell the familiar smell.

What is the old demon Zhuge fighting in Tua?

Feng Yong let go of the hand holding Zhang Xingyi and touched his chin.

"This new army, is it sure to be called the Northern and Southern Army, not the Qimen Army or the Yulin Army or something?"

After all, the Qimen Army and the Yulin Army are completely in the hands of the emperor.

"It's called the Northern and Southern Army."

"The Northern and Southern Army, do you need to go out to fight?".

"Nature is needed." Zhang Xingyi said as a matter of course, "Since you have the name of the Northern and Southern Army, how can you not go out to fight?" ”

Although the Later Han did not have a southern army, it still retained a northern army.

The Northern Army of the Later Han Dynasty was a field army.

In peacetime, he was stationed in the capital to manage the monarch's guards and assistant to the capital's security, and in the event of war, it became the core of the formation of the expeditionary troops.

Therefore, the army of the North and the South is still following the old practice.

I'll just say it!

Feng Yong clasped his palms, and the old demon Zhuge must have taken a fancy to Adou's money this time.

I want to borrow money from the palace to form a new army.

No, that's not called borrowing, that's called using!

You have formed the Northern and Southern Army, and when there is really a war, will the prime minister have a reason to let the Northern and Southern armies go on the expedition?

"Who is the one who commands the two armies of the north and the south? Is it decided? ”

Feng Yong asked.

"My brother, and my brother."

Zhang Xingyi knows everything.

Oh, it turned out to be my two brothers-in-law.

Feng Yong nodded.

That's right.

Guan Xing and Zhang Bao are now one of the leaders of the Central Army, and the other is the Central Protector Army, both of whom nominally lead the Chinese Army to protect the royal security, and they are loyal, needless to say.

At the same time, the two have combat experience and are indeed the best candidates.

Needless to say, Zhang Bao's relationship with the royal family is needless to say.

As for Guan Xing, he and Sanniang are brother and sister, the emperor gave him a heavy task and asked him to train the new army, can Guan Ji not do his best to help?

Thinking of this, Feng Yong couldn't help but say:

"The queen's means are really good!"

"Go, yin and yang!"

Zhang Xingyi pushed Feng Yong dissatisfiedly.

Anyway, in private, he and Zhang Xingyi were two, and Feng Yong was not afraid to say it:

"Aren't you afraid that the two armies of the north and south will be requisitioned and sent away by the prime minister?"

Zhang Xingyi said nonchalantly:

"It's a natural thing, what are you afraid of? What His Majesty wants is this name. ”

As she spoke, she glanced at Feng Yong:

"The prime minister is also preparing for His Majesty's future, and it is a combination of monarchs and ministers. Do you think anyone is as clever and ruthless as you are? ”

"I'm also a good reminder to you! How can it become a clever word to make a lustful heart? ”

Feng Junhou couldn't hold back his face, and hurriedly defended, "I really don't know the hearts of good people!" ”

Zhang Xingyi snorted, "What about provoking the relationship between His Majesty and the Prime Minister, when I can't hear it?" ”

"That is, I understand you, if you really want to change someone else, I just need to say this to Your Majesty, don't look at Your Majesty's good temper, believe it or not, he can't spare you?"

, it's a thankless task to find a woman with high intelligence!

From Zhang Xingyi's words, Feng Yong understood.

This is basically a PY transaction between Zhuge Lao Demon and Adou and his wife.

The palace paid for the construction of a new army, got a name, and at the same time prepared for the future mastery of the northern and southern armies.

The prime minister can get a new army without spending money, and it is the most expensive new army.

He can even drag the new army to the battle array for actual combat, and hone a real army from the north and the south to fight.

When Adou really takes power, he will immediately have an elite army in his hands that is completely obedient to his orders.

People who play politics are really dirty!

"Where's Modao? Why not mention it? ”

Feng Junhou felt that his IQ had been crushed, so he simply broke the jar and broke it.

With heavy cavalry, and with a heavy infantry, why don't you go to the sky?

Zhang Xingyi's words quickly made Feng Junhou understand that Adou and his wife really wanted to turn the sky upside down.

"What's the hurry? When you have all the money in the palace, the wind blows? This ironclad cavalry doesn't know how much food it will cost, and if it adds a Mo sword army, the palace won't be able to take advantage of it. ”

Oh, it turns out that there is not enough money, not that I don't want to get it.

"Besides, the Tiger Infantry Army trained by the Prime Minister is also an elite soldier, and it is enough to have the Tiger Infantry Army for the time being, so I will train an ironclad cavalry army first......

Remembering that the eight-array diagram used by his mother-in-law was still improved with Huang Yueying's help, which was different from the eight-array diagram dominated by the Tiger Bu Army, the corners of Feng Yong's mouth twitched.

The combat power of the Tiger Infantry Army is enough, but the mobility is not enough.

However, the eight-array diagram dominated by the Tiger Bu Army has matured, and it is not easy to change it.

Therefore, Zhuge Old Demon simply took this opportunity to train a new army dominated by cavalry.

Heavy cavalry cannot be formed alone into an army, it needs light assault and rangers to respond, assist, and escort by the side.

Therefore, the new army of the north and south will inevitably not have heavy cavalry alone, but will definitely be equipped with light cavalry and rangers.

In this way, the shortcomings of the lack of mobility of the Tiger Infantry Army were perfectly compensated.

What does it mean to count in one fell swoop?

What is a bird that kills one stone?

What does it mean to make the most of it?

What does it mean to make the most of people?

On his side, he still thought that Huang Yueying, half of her mother-in-law, still cared for her after all, and never thought that she loved her husband more.

Feng Yong could fully imagine that Huang Yueying would definitely give all the information here to Zhuge Old Demon as soon as she returned to Hanzhong.

Then the old demon Zhuge watched as he put the improved Eight Array Diagram into practice, and killed Cao Zhen.

Is there any reason why he is not impressed?

"Alright! Now everyone is waiting for you to go back, looking at you like this, it's like someone else wants to harm you, what are you afraid of! ”

Rao is Zhang Xingyi's intelligence is outstanding, but how could he think of those twists and turns in Feng Tuyi's heart?

In the past few years, he has been happy and happy in Longyou, and his reputation has risen, and he has won a big victory, and his heart is a little fluttering.

remembered that the prime minister of the Han Dynasty in the early years made himself a little psychologically shadowed, which made Feng Junhou, who was a little inflated, couldn't help but think:

If I had today's status and strength at that time, I might not have been afraid of this Zhuge old demon.

Then this basin of cold water was poured down, and Feng Junhou's little dream was punctured.

Forget it, I'll just keep going.

"Who dares to harm me?"

Feng Junhou has a stalk on his neck, what am I afraid of if he can't beat the prime minister?

Back then, he passed on my "Liutao", no matter how I said it, I was also his disciple, plus Huang Yueying's relationship, I could be regarded as half of his son-in-law.

Can't beat me and can't climb the relationship?

"What am I afraid of?!"

Feng Junhou waved his hand, "Return, go back to Hanzhong immediately." ”

Speaking of this, he looked at Zhang Xingyi again, "By the way, I have made such a great achievement, what reward have I ever had?" ”

When Zhang Xingyi heard this, his eyes flowed, and he actually showed a little flattery:

"How did Your Majesty and the Prime Minister reward Ah Lang, and how did the concubine know?"

"Love to say it or not."

Feng Yong didn't care, anyway, when he returned to Hanzhong, he would know everything.

"Although the concubine doesn't know how Hanzhong plans to reward Ah Lang, she does know how to reward Ah Lang's two children."

"Ah Worm must be the official of the shadow, and the queen also intends to reward Shuangshuang, I don't know what kind of reward Ah Lang wants to give Shuangshuang?"

"That's ......"

Feng Yong thought about it for a long time, but he couldn't think of what his daughter lacked.

"Do you want to marry the royal family?"

"No!"

Feng Junhou immediately jumped to his feet and said, "How old are those princes?" How old is my daughter? ”

"Even if it's a prince, it's only a few years older," Zhang Xingyi said angrily, "not to mention it's not a prince, it's a prince." ”

"That's not going to work either." Feng Yong pouted, "My daughter, I have to pick a good family when I grow up." It's still young, it's too early to say this. ”

Adou now has several princes born to harem concubines, all of whom were born in the past few years.

"What about my sister's son, can't you?"

"Sister?" Feng Yong was stunned for a while, and it took a while to react, "Empress? ”

Zhang Xingyi nodded, with joy on his face: "After the queen arrived in Hanzhong, she visited the old site of Emperor Gaozu with Her Majesty, and it didn't take long for her to be happy." ”

"Ah, Emperor Gaozu has appeared?"

Feng Yong snorted with a big mouth.

Who knew that Zhang Xingyi nodded again and again, with excitement shining on his face:

"That's what I say! Otherwise, I haven't been pregnant in Jincheng for so long, and I will be happy when I come to the land of the Han family's Longxing, but isn't it the manifestation of the ancestors, which means that the Han family wants to prosper again? ”

"Coupled with Ah Lang's big victory this time, it is rumored in Hanzhong, this is a sign of the revival of the Han Dynasty!"
