In the past two years, Tang Feng has changed the most around Sun Tu. This change is reflected in his identity - Tang Feng two years ago was just an inconspicuous ordinary general in the army, and he could not be compared with General Dong Ping in terms of ability or merit, so in the end, he did not get any high position, and only entered the Imperial City Division as a director.

But it was also in the Imperial City Division that Tang Feng exerted his skills that had always been overlooked, that is, the most extremely keen sense of smell and decisive and ruthless methods, and with the power that the Imperial City Division had been hiding in the shadows, he helped Sun Tu eradicate several enemies who were still trying to cause chaos in the capital, and made great contributions.

It is precisely because of these means that Tang Feng's entire temperament has also undergone earth-shaking changes. He is no longer the defenseless and inconspicuous petty officer he was at the beginning, but a terrifying figure who can decide the life and death of countless high-ranking officials and generals. And he was a little impatient and overly sharp, but now he has become calm and introverted, but his momentum is ten times that of the original, so that people dare not force his eyes.

The only thing that has not changed is his loyalty to Sun Tu, and he Tang Feng is still the good brother who is willing to give his life for Sun Tu!

With the support of Sun Tu and Tang Feng's efforts, the current Imperial City Division is completely different from the beginning, and within the capital, above the officialdom, there is almost nothing that can escape their ears and eyes. At the same time, their tentacles also extended beyond the Great Song Dynasty, and some information from Liaojin, Xixia and other places could always be received by them at the first time and reported to Sun Tu. In a sense, Tang Feng, who was only a fifth-grade martial artist, had a role in Sun Tu on a par with Tong Mu.

And Tong Mu was also slightly stunned when he saw Tang Feng coming, and then got up with a smile and planned to leave. It is better not to take the initiative not to ask about some things, so as not to affect the relationship with Sun Tu. But before he could say that he was leaving, Sun Tu spoke first: "Second brother, go slowly, Tang Feng, you are also just in time, I have something to do with your people here." ”

"The captain just commands." Tang Feng said without the slightest hesitation.

Sun Tu glanced at Tong Mu, who sat down again: "I just thought about it again, Lin Chong's people are afraid that it will be difficult to get things done, so it is better for the people from the Imperial City Division to take action." In this way, you and Tang Feng will discuss one or two later, and make a charter, I only have two requirements, one is to be fast, and the other is to control the situation within a certain range, so as not to affect this year's autumn harvest. ”

Tong Mu nodded hurriedly, and although Tang Feng didn't understand what he wanted to do, he still hugged his fists and agreed. Then he said: "Captain, I just received important information from the north and west today, and I am here to report it. ”

"Oh? Is there any movement in Liao and Western Xia? When Sun Tu heard this, his spirit was also lifted, and he even sat up straighter.

In the past two years, because of Sun Tu's series of thunderbolt methods in the Great Song Dynasty, coupled with the control of Zhao Ji in his hands, he has been able to coerce the Son of Heaven to order the world, but there has been no big mess. Even because of his series of good governance, he constantly cut excessive taxes and miscellaneous taxes, and sent people from close friends to inspect everywhere to check accounts and arrest corrupt officials, which made the life of the people in the world much better than before, so that the national strength of the Great Song Dynasty flourished.

In contrast, the situation in Western Xia and Liao is not optimistic.

In fact, the Western Xia had already been peaceful in the country, after all, Li Renyou himself was outstanding, and with the help of several dynasty elders like Mo Yuhe, even if they seized power by intrigue and trickery, they had completely controlled the situation later, and even if there were some rebellions, they could quickly suppress them.

But they still made the mistake of underestimating the enemy, and actually wanted to take advantage of the war between Song, Liao, and Jin to invade the Great Song Dynasty. As a result, he was naturally defeated by the prepared Western Army, so that the national strength was greatly damaged, and at the same time, he also formed a grudge with Sun Tu.

After the domestic situation stabilized, Sun Tu naturally couldn't let go of this enemy, so in the past two years, he asked the Western Army to take the initiative several times, focusing on killing and destroying, but not occupying the city. And once the Western Xia sent troops to kill, it was a passive defense, constantly consuming its troops, food and grass, in the final analysis, it was a consuming word.

In this way, the Western Xia really suffered enough, their country was not rich, and they were harassed by the Song army for many years, and the casualties and losses continued to accumulate, and now they are about to run out of mountains and rivers, maybe when they will desperately raise the country's troops to the east, so Sun Tu will be vigilant.

As for the Liao State, the situation in the past two years has been even more unbearable, because this country, which was once the most powerful country in the northern part of the Central Plains, has now completely split into two forces. Yelu Dashi and Yelu Yanxi, the two monarchs and ministers, have become enemies, and they have been fighting endlessly for many years, but no one can help anyone. It is precisely because of this that the Great Song Dynasty was given the opportunity to develop steadily, but at the same time, Sun Tu was also wary of this old opponent, and whenever the news of the secret spy head in front came, he would ask about it as soon as possible.

Tang Feng nodded: "That's right, there is good news from the Western Xia side, it is their monarch Li Renyou who has decided to send an envoy to Tokyo to sue for peace, and they are willing to pay any price to beg my Great Song Mo to send troops to harass again." In addition, they also expelled the Liao envoys in China, saying that from now on, they would only respect the Great Song Dynasty. If this news is true, I am afraid that their envoys have already set off, and the autumn and winter seasons will come to my Tokyo. ”

"Oh?" Sun Tu laughed and looked at Tong Mu again: "How about the second brother, I still said it, right?" These barbarian foreigners have always been afraid of power but not virtue, and the more fiercely we beat them, the more honest they are, and they dare not have any dissatisfaction. ”

Tong Mu was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that this was a statement that Sun Tu mentioned when he drank with himself during the Chinese New Year last year, and he still didn't agree with it at that time, and felt that constantly using troops against Xixia would suffer endless troubles...... This made him a little stunned at the moment, and said with a wry smile: "What the captain said is that my vision is too narrow, and I look down on those party members." ”

"Hehe, as long as you deal with them more, especially if you have fought a few times on the battlefield, you will be able to understand their personalities." Sun Tu said casually, and then looked at Tang Feng: "What about the north?" What happened to the Liao people? ”

"Yelu Yanxi is dead!" Tang Feng's only one sentence made the faces of the other two people change, and the news came too suddenly. After a while, Sun Tucai said slowly: "How did he die?" Didn't the news come back three months ago, and the two sides of Liao have always been in a tug-of-war, and it is difficult to distinguish the winner from the loser? ”

"He was not defeated and killed, but was assassinated and killed by his cronies!" Tang Feng was also a little stunned: "That assassin has obviously followed Yelu Yanxi's side for many years, and he can never be Yelu Dashi's person, but in the end, on the night of April 15, he suddenly attacked, and he assassinated his own monarch as if he was crazy. Yelu Yanxi was completely defenseless and was killed on the spot......"

"It seems that this should be some kind of means used by Yelu Dashi to force the man to suddenly defect." Sun Tu pondered for a moment, but he didn't dwell on this matter, but cared about the follow-up: "What about after he dies?" How did the soldiers and horses gathered under his command react? ”

"One part suddenly dispersed, and there were also those who defected before the battle and threw themselves at Yelu Dashi, and as for the part that remained, they supported their son Yelu Changxing as the emperor, and wanted to continue to deal with Yelu Dashi. However, judging from the situation at the time of the news, their defeat is not far off, and it will not last until the end of this year at the latest. ”

Sun Tu took a deep breath: "In this way, the civil strife in the Liao State is about to subside......"

Tong Mu, who was familiar with him, looked awe-inspiring when he saw him: "Isn't the captain trying to use troops against Liao again?" ”

"yes. In the past two years, I have not asked Yue Fei and Dong Ping not to make any changes, just because I want to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, so as to consume a lot of Liao's national and military strength. But now, they are about to decide the winner, and this is their weakest time, they cannot give Yelu Dashi a chance to restore their national strength, and they must use troops against him as soon as possible. In this way, it is set to be killed by a large army in the winter of this year, when the remnants of Yelu Yanxi will be destroyed. Sun Tu quickly gave his own decision, of course, this is only a preliminary decision now, and he will have to discuss the details with many generals later, so as to find the most reasonable and suitable time to send troops.

The three most powerful people in Tokyo now talked about the situation in the three kingdoms of the world with a smile, and after discussing it for a while, Tong Mu got up and said goodbye. As the governor of the political affairs department and the real chief official of the political affairs hall, the responsibility on his body is extremely heavy, so it is naturally impossible for him to leave for too long.

And not long after he left, Tang Feng suddenly changed his expression: "Captain, there are already some clues about the matter that you let the humble position investigate in secret. ”

"Oh? Is there really something wrong with him? ”

"Although he looks very low-key on the surface, he always contacts many officials and generals in the DPRK and China in the name of gathering people to drink, and some of them are in important positions."

"Hmm, Taoguang is obscure, but he has made a lot of friends, doesn't this person want to be that Wang Yun?" Sun Tu narrowed his eyes: "But I'm not Dong Zhuo." Does he have anything to do with the secret force that cooperated with Cai Jing and them two years ago? ”

In the past two years, Tang Feng has been investigating the hidden forces that cooperated with Cai Jingyu's party to cause a big mess in the capital, but he has not gained anything until today. Now that Sun Tu asked again, he also showed a look of shame: "It shouldn't be him, that person is hiding too deeply, but there is a little bit of despicability to be sure, he is a man in the army, not a civilian official can do it." ”

"Then do you think he is united?" Sun Tu put forward a new view. But Tang Feng's heart moved: "Yes, maybe I can use this line to fish out this guy who has been hiding for two years from underwater." Luckily, I didn't touch him, or I would have missed the opportunity. ”

"Then spend more patience, we have time, but he, he is old, and he has almost a few years to live." Sun Tu said with a smile, but his eyes were full of coldness.
