"Lord Wang." Feng Huaidao interrupted Gongsun Jian's words, looked at him and asked, "Do you mean by saying this, do we need to choose between the imperial court and the king of Chu?" ”

Gongsun Jian nodded,

"Yes, Zhou Guo can't be defeated. Otherwise, there will be chaos in the Zhou Kingdom. That doesn't do us any good. But Zhou Guo couldn't win easily. Once the imperial court wins, then the next target will definitely be us. Do you think Qian Hong will let me go? ”

Everyone suddenly realized, but they didn't know how to say something. Shi Fangheng, who had not spoken on the side, said lightly: "Lord Wang, this matter is too easy. And for us there is only good, no harm. ”

"Oh? Mr. Shi might as well say it and study it together. Gongsun Jian said with a smile.

"That is, we will send troops to help defeat the Southern Han."

As soon as these words came out, except for Feng Huaidao frowning and thinking, the other four people were all shocked.

"But wouldn't it be good for us to send troops to defeat the Southern Han?" Liu Dayuan asked puzzled.

"Wonderful!" Without waiting for Shi Fangheng to answer Liu Dayuan's doubts, Feng Huaidao slapped his hands and praised: "Brother Yi is really different from mortals. No wonder the prince will keep you by his side as a personal staff. ”

And at this moment, Cao Liang and Li Wenfang also understood the meaning of Shi Fangheng's words just now. Since Qian Hong will not let go of Qian Tuan, the war on the front line is tight at the moment. It is impossible to replace Qian Tuan casually. But it's not realistic to keep fighting. But once Zhou Guo wins, then Qian Tuan's fate will be in danger next. At this time, Gongsun Jian sent troops to help defeat the Southern Han, which could not only control some more territory to a greater extent, but also help Qian Tuan fight against Qian Hong. As long as Qian Tuan doesn't want to die, he won't give up this opportunity to stand on his own. In this way, even if the Zhou State would not be chaotic due to the invasion of foreign enemies, it also planted the seeds of chaos internally. Not to mention that the imperial court has not yet purged the problem of the noble family, and there are forces such as Qian Tuan and Gongsun Jian outside, so it will be even more difficult for Qian Hong to deal with.

"But Lord Wang, we don't have many soldiers and horses at the moment, most of them are new recruits who have just been recruited. If he goes south to fight, will Wu take the opportunity to come again? Liu Dayuan's eyes have always been staring at his own one-third of an acre, in fact, it is not his vision problem, but this person is extremely timid and cautious.

Gongsun Jian shook his head with a smile and replied, "This time, the Wu State lost its troops. There are no days to recover. Besides, Brother Fang Cai Wen Fang also said that he will send an envoy to Wu Guo on behalf of our royal palace, and it is not surprising that Wu Guo will not dare to use troops against us for a while. In addition, this time I am going to take Zhenyuan Pass by the way. If Wu Guo doesn't agree, then I'll come hard. Anyway, I want to take it back. Otherwise, Dingxi County will always be under the threat of the Wu State. And everyone knows how important Dingxi County is in our system today. Not to mention taxes, cement and bricks and tiles alone are materials that we must use in the future. ”

"Hmm. I agree with the prince's decision. Cao nodded and agreed: "The Huguan closest to the border in Wu is more than 130 miles away from Zhenyuanguan. Not to mention that there is a town far away, even if they don't want to invade us, it's not so easy. But if Zhenyuan Pass is always in the hands of the other party, then they can enter the country at any time to attack us. So Zhenyuan Pass must be taken back. ”

After listening to what Cao Liang said, Li Wenfang, who took the initiative to take over the task of envoy to Wu State, frowned and thought about it, and then made up his mind and said: "Okay, even if I don't want my life, Li Mou, I will get Zhenyuan Pass back this time." ”

"Hahaha, Brother Wen Fang's words are serious. I've already said just now, if Wu Guo doesn't give it to you, we'll take it ourselves. Why do you have to fight so hard? Gongsun Jian said with a laugh.

After discussing for a long time, they basically determined the next strategic goal of the Zhou Palace, that is, to first repair the internal affairs to unify the whole territory and implement the new policy, as well as to take Zhenyuan Pass and go south to assist the Chu King Qian Tuan to defeat the Southern Han Dynasty, and to help the King of Chu to seize the southern part of the Zhou State, so that the Zhou court has no space to attack itself.

The next day, Gongsun Jian summoned the military generals again, reclarified their respective responsibilities, and asked for faster training of new soldiers and unification of thinking. At this meeting, not only people from the military, but also Huang Wenyuan and Hu Tianyi also participated in the meeting. Each expressed a different point of view. In the end, Gongsun Jian set a tone. The army is not for any individual, but for all the people. The purpose of its existence is to defend everyone's hard-earned happiness and to save more people who have been oppressed and exploited as they once were.

In this regard, some generals from wealthy families may not think so, but those old guys who came out to fight the world with Gongsun Jian are convinced one by one. In the end, Hu Tianyi said a word.

"Ladies and gentlemen, you may not know Hu well. I was born in Jin Longwei, why did I follow the prince? Just because of the prince's words of establishing a heart for heaven and earth and a life for the people. Don't say that Hu didn't remind everyone in advance. But anyone who has two hearts or doesn't take the words of the prince seriously, it's best to sleep in the middle of the night with one eye open, otherwise there will be nowhere to find when the head is gone! ”

Hu Tianyi's words made many people's hearts cold, and they felt that this was a real person who didn't talk much. With him, who dares to have any opinions and outside intentions.

Huang Wenyuan saw the shocked expressions of many people, so he came out and said, "Oh, don't be surprised. Hu is like that. It may be the reason why Jin Longwei has been in office for too long. If you want me to say, a team must have only one heart to be invincible. Otherwise, if you have this idea, how can he win the battle if he has that idea, right? I don't understand how to fight, you are all veterans of leading soldiers, so I will not interfere in your affairs. However, we must also do a good job in the ideological work of the troops. This is not the business of the sergeant commander, it is the business of my old Huang. So it's all my fault that something happened. So don't take it to heart. As he spoke, Huang Wenyuan glanced at Gongsun Jian, who had not spoken all the time, and then said: "According to the prince's intentions, we will set up two military academies. A school specializes in teaching the science of leading troops in combat. The other school is mainly responsible for learning to be a soldier's ideological mobilization work. According to the king's orders, in the future, all officers above the company level must enter these two schools to study before they can be formally appointed. All the senior generals here also have to take time to participate in the study. ”

After Huang Wenyuan finished speaking, everyone didn't say anything. At this moment, Xu Huaizhi was the first to stand up and speak: "Why don't you speak?" Don't you listen to the prince's orders? Isn't it just about studying and taking classes? One by one, Qiu Ba came from a higher background and learned a little more knowledge, maybe he could use it on the battlefield in the future. Ask yourselves. As far as war is concerned, which of you can be our prince's opponent? Then Sun Sheng didn't give it for nothing, but so what? Both times, they were all defeated by our prince with fewer victories and more victories. ”

"But I can't read a few big characters, how can I learn them?" A weak voice came, and everyone looked at the person who spoke, but it was Wei Meng. And Ding Feng and the others were also scratching their ears and cheeks, but they didn't say it like Wei Meng.

"You go and follow Yu Wu for me, and let Nan Nan be responsible for teaching you to read. The garrison division was temporarily handed over to Zhao Sihai to be responsible for leading. Gongsun Jian scolded angrily at Wei. Then he lowered his voice and said: "Everyone else is the same, if you can't read, hurry up and learn, otherwise you will all be sent to Nannan to study like Wei Meng." That little girl is a devil, and it is estimated that she is under her hands, and it is more difficult than going to the battlefield to kill you. ”

"Your Excellency is right. At the beginning, I asked the county lord how to write a few words. As a result, he was punished by the county lord to sit in the sun and write all day. Xie Wu stood up to testify to Gongsun Jian, it was really uncomfortable. But who would dare not listen to Gong Yu Wu's words, and he did it himself.

Everyone originally laughed at Wei Meng's voice, and they all thought about going back to find a gentleman who knew more about Braille. lest you suffer under the county lord in the future, suffering is secondary, the key is that you can't afford to lose that person! The commander of the first division commanded thousands of people, but what is the matter with the regiment commanded by a little girl?

After saying this, Gongsun Jian began to talk about the reorganization of the army again. Now that all the recruits are recruited, the next thing is training. In the future, every field division and garrison division, as well as amphibious units and special operations brigades, will be reorganized. The current veterans are used as a framework to redistribute the existing troops, and then the trained recruits are added one by one. Qi Shi and Xu Huaizhi were in charge of this matter, while Ding Feng and Xie Wu's amphibious troops and special operations brigades were not among them, and they were all recruited separately or selected in the army. Gongsun Jian personally took the lead in this matter, and Ding Feng and Xie Wu did the specific things.

After sending off the generals of the military, Gongsun Jian had not rested, and began to meet with officials from various places who came to report on their work one after another, and it was only after three days of busy work that he was finally able to take a breath and rest. But at this time, Hu Tianyi came to the door again.

There were only two people in the huge study, Gongsun Jian and Hu Tianyi, this time Hu Tianyi did not have a seat, but Gongsun Jian sat behind his desk to listen to Hu Tianyi's report.

"Lord Wang, the person has already found out. Basically, the people who are in charge are the children of the noble families who defected from Shangjing, and the others are some local wealthy families who are dissatisfied with the new policy. The key issue also lies in the two things of Tian Mu and the study of the children of the poor family. After all, this is digging up their foundations! ”

After listening to Hu Tianyi's report, Gongsun Jian fell into deep thought. Where there is reform, contradictions will inevitably arise. The new class inevitably has an irreconcilable conflict of interest with the old class. At the same time, two different ideas are also colliding. This era needs someone to change, so Gongsun Jian stood up. In fact, the easiest thing for him is to rely on his family background to win over those wealthy families, so that he can get the support he wants to the greatest extent and the fastest, and he can also achieve things as quickly as possible. But he didn't choose to do so, because he didn't want the world to fall into a chaotic circle again a hundred years from now. Moreover, in his previous life, he himself was a believer in redism, and since his ancestors, he has been constantly fighting and sacrificing blood for that motherland. He could not see anyone being bullied, oppressed, and suffering. This is not because of how great his Gongsun Jian is, but because he firmly believes that that faith can bring happiness to people, and he has been working hard.

Now that he has embarked on this path he has chosen, and this kind of thing will inevitably happen in the future, the regime led by his Gongsun Jian will inevitably have a collision of interests with those wealthy families, so it is better to start solving this problem now. Whether it is the Cao family or the Li family, as long as they conform to their own ideas, they will naturally not be treated badly, but those self-righteous Zhou nobles, he cannot tolerate them. Otherwise, your own territory will one day be messed up because of these moths. Then his previous efforts will be in vain.

Thinking about the joints, Gongsun Jian had a cold face and asked Hu Tianyi in a cold tone: "Have you mastered the list of people involved?" And the officials involved in the incident, do they all know what these people are doing? ”
