In the western suburbs of Jidu, there is a mountain range, connecting the Taihang Mountains and the Yanshan Mountains, its mountains are made of limestone, the strange rocks are craggy, it becomes a scene by itself, the people of Jidu call it Shijing Mountain.

The Sixth Army barracks led by Ji Kang was at the foot of Shijingshan Mountain and was stationed independently.

On November 18, the west city wall of the outer city of Jidu.

Today is a rare good day, there is no north wind howling, and the weather is clear.

Changguo Jun Lejian, Yaqing Jiangqu, General Qing Qin, Historian Gao Yang and other officials stood on the west city wall and looked at the military camp of the Liao army in the western suburbs.

In the distance, there was a faint sound of shouts and fighting for military camp training.

From time to time, the historian Gao Yang raised the monocular in his hand and looked at the military camp in the distance. After looking at it for a while, he went to the table in the city gate tower and wrote a few sentences.

Then, he came out of the city gate tower again, raised the telescope in his hand again, and looked into the distance again, and sighed from time to time: "His Royal Highness the Prince, personally ride a horse and train with all the soldiers." Oh! It's really intense! ”

Everyone looked at the telescope in the hand of the historian Gao Yang, and then saw Gao Yang's "Dese" appearance, everyone wanted to beat Gao Yang violently, including Yaqing Jiangqu, who had a good relationship with Gao Yang.

It's infuriating! Do you have.

You, a historian, actually have a "clairvoyant mirror" in your hand that all military generals call "the artifact of the army", which makes us, the generals in the army, how embarrassed! We don't!

The general Qing Qin really couldn't help it, came to Gao Yang's side, and said to Gao Yang flatteringly:

"Senior Historian, can you let the last general use the clairvoyant mirror to take a look again?"

Gao Yang pulled his face, put down the binoculars in his hand, and said to Qing Qin: "General Qing Qin, didn't you see it all just now?" ”

Qing Qin Qiang pressed the urge to smash Xiang Gao's fist and snatch away the clairvoyant mirror, licked his face and said:

"Senior Historian, would it be good to let the last general take a look at it again? Just once, just one last time. ”

Gao Yang ignored the crowd around him and looked at the anger in his eyes. With a flick of his sleeves, he said to Qing Qin:

"General Qing Qin, it's okay, it's the last time!"

"That's it! Is that! ”

Changguo Jun was happy, and said to Yaqing: "Lord Jiangqu, His Royal Highness the Prince, do you train outside the city every day?" ”

Jiang Qu nodded, and said to Lejian: "On the third day when Gongzi was established as the crown prince, he started to play my king, saying that he was going out of the city to train troops and go to the military camp. It was said that he would stay in the barracks for about half a month and train with the soldiers. ”

"Today is the day he returns to the city, and after a while, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince should come back."

Many officials next to him were also whispering.

"This Liao army is really extraordinary, and its weapons and equipment far surpass the other armies of my Yan Kingdom!"

"Yes! Not only that, I heard that the most powerful cavalry in the Liao army is cavalry, and each cavalry is equivalent to a chariot. ”

"Isn't this like Zhao Guo's Hufu cavalry?"

"What is Hufu riding and shooting? The cavalry of the Liao army under His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is much more powerful than the Hufu cavalry. ”

"It is reported that the food of these Liao soldiers is also very good."

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, not only train with the soldiers every day, but also eat the same."

"Lord Wang, this army of tens of thousands every day, how much food, meat and vegetables do you need for such a drill!"

"Lord Liu, we don't have to worry about this. The prince's Liao army did not use the grain in our Jidu grain depot at all, and it was all transported from Liao through merchants. Of course, those who are not enough take gold coins to buy in the thistle. ”

"What's more, the prince has gold coins in his hand, and the quartermaster is now the most popular among the people of Jidu. Now because of these tens of thousands of Liao troops, the pockets of the people have begun to bulge. ”

Hearing this, Jiang Qu coughed softly. The officials beside Jiang Qu immediately fell silent.

At this time, Qing Qin, the general who was looking into the distance with a telescope in his hand, said to everyone: "It seems that it is the crown prince, who led his personal guard battalion out of the camp." ”

When they heard this, they all looked into the distance.

After a while, on the horizon in the distance, a red line appeared, and it was hurrying towards the west gate of Jidu.

After a while, the thunderous sound of horses' hooves was faintly heard by everyone.

"It's the prince, and the one in front of you is His Royal Highness the Prince!" Senior General Qing Qin couldn't help shouting.

Historian Gao Yang hurriedly snatched the telescope from Qing Qin's hand and said to Qing Qin: "Let me see." ”

Qing Qin looked at the telescope in Gao Yang's hand and licked his lips. Very helpless and helpless!

It's winter now, and there are very few people on the galloping road outside the west gate of Jidu.

In this way, when everyone saw the galloping cavalry, their speed slowed down, and they formed a column and walked on the side of the galloping road.

Seeing this, Yaqing Jiangqu and Changguo Junle, as well as the officials on the city wall, couldn't help but nod their heads in praise.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, you really have compassion for the people!"

When this line of cavalry came to the city, everyone saw that the leader was indeed Ji Kang, the current prince of Yan Kingdom.

Ji Kang also saw the generals and musicians at the head of the city, and when they arrived at the city gate, they threw off their horses.

has already walked down the city, and the officials who came to greet Ji Kang said one after another:

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, your riding skills are exquisite!"

"His Royal Highness the Prince, it's really both civil and military!"

……

Ji Kang said to everyone who came to greet him: "Ladies and gentlemen, you have worked hard! ”

"I can't wait, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has worked hard!" Everyone bowed down to Ji Kang and said.

At the gate of the city, after greeting Jiangqu, Lejian, Qingqin and other officials, Ji Kang returned to the prince's mansion in Jidu.

Ji Kang still didn't live in the Thistle Palace, and was still in his own mansion in the city.

Back at the house, Ji Kang washed up and came to the study.

At this time, Yaqing Lu Zhonglian and Su Dai, Ji Mao, the president of the Supervision Yuan, and Huang Yong, the director of the Intelligence Bureau, were all waiting for Ji Kang in the study.

Seeing Ji Kang coming in, everyone bowed down together and said, "Meet His Royal Highness the Prince." ”

After Ji Kang sat down, he waved his hand and said to everyone:

"Sit down, everybody! In their own house, they are all their own people, so don't be so polite in the future. ”

Everyone laughed, knowing that Ji Kang was speaking from the heart.

Su Dai stood up and said to Ji Kang: "Prince, the ceremony must not be abolished!" ”

Ji Kang sighed in his heart, knowing that he couldn't change it.

In this era, there are strict hierarchies between people, especially between high-level leaders, and there are rules for every word and deed.

Huang Yong, director of the Intelligence Bureau, stepped forward and took out a report on the situation: "Prince, this is the information sent back from the Qin State. The general of the Qin State and Wu Anjun Bai Qi was given a sword by the king of Qin, and he was cut by himself! ”

The faces of the crowd were calm, obviously knowing the news for a long time.

After Ji Kang saw the information that Bai Qi had killed, he couldn't help but say: "Finally dead, the world is missing a ......."

Looking at everyone, Ji Kang suddenly realized that he didn't say any more.

Everyone looked at Ji Kang's embarrassed expression and laughed.

Mr. Lu Zhonglian said with a smile: "Prince, Bai Qi is indeed a hero of the Qin State, but he is also the "butcher" of the people of the Central Plains!" Those who died at their hands for no reason are too many to write! His death is deserved! ”

Ji Kang picked up the cup in front of him, took a sip of water, and said to everyone:

"The people of the Central Plains countries are all of our Chinese race, not foreigners. Bai Qi is so cruel, and his death cannot escape his own guilt, nor can he escape the responsibility of history. ”

"Bai Qi this person, as Mr. Lu Zhonglian said, if it is a foreigner who is slaughtered, I will praise him as a "hero". But it killed millions of people of our Huaxia clan, especially in the Battle of Changping, and slaughtered hundreds of thousands of Zhao troops who had surrendered, which is indeed not a son of man. ”

When everyone heard Ji Kang say this, they all nodded.

Ji Kang didn't want to talk more about Bai Qi, turned his head, and said to Huang Yong:

"Director Huang, are all the intelligence officers in Qi in place now?"

Huang Yong hurriedly stood up and reported to Ji Kangyu: "Prince Qiyu, now my intelligence personnel in the Qi State have all been distributed in all the counties and counties of the Qi State. is following the prince's instructions to collect all the information of the Qi country. ”

When everyone heard this, they all felt that their blood was rolling, and they knew that their son-in-law was ready to compete in the Central Plains.

Mr. Lu Zhonglian shook his head, knowing that this was inevitable.

And Mr. Su Dai, who had a deep enmity with Qi and the sea of blood, was full of excitement.
