What Kou Ji sent to the Annan army was a large amount of leather armor, cloth armor, and a small amount of iron armor.

With the iron armor of the Annan army, the offensive became more rapid.

The Annan army is strong and brave.

The two sides attacked Jiaozhi together, and in less than half a year, half of the country of Jiaozhi was lost.

The king of Jiaozhi was worried about this.

At this moment, a maritime merchant approached him and told him that he could provide him with hard iron armor, but at a higher price.

The king of Jiaozhi didn't even think about it, so he agreed to trade with the maritime merchants.

Seeing that the country is about to die, how can he still have the heart to guard those money.

He not only traded the money in the Cochin treasury to the maritime merchants, but also expropriated some money and traded it to the maritime merchants.

The maritime merchants provided him with 50,000 sets of iron armor.

With 50,000 sets of iron armor, the king of Jiaozhi County immediately equipped an iron armor army of 50,000 people.

After the ironclad army joined the battlefield, it slightly reversed the decline of Jiaozhi.

The king of Jiaozhi finally has the strength to resist the Annan army and the great cannibals.

The three sides fought a series of battles on the territory of Jiaozhi.

The people of Jiaozhi, the people of the small tribes in the mountains and forests, are decreasing at a rate that is visible to the naked eye.

Cochin is full of white bones.

The tripartite war of Cochin is in full swing.

Within the territory of Dali.

After the 50,000 soldiers and horses led by Di Qing arrived, Chong Shiheng also launched an offensive against Jiaozhi.

100,000 soldiers and horses, divided into three routes, launched an attack on Dali.

Zhu Neng led 20,000 soldiers and horses to the south along Dongchuan Mansion to attack the territory of Dali south of Dongchuan Mansion.

Chong Shiheng led 50,000 soldiers and horses at the junction of Jianchang Mansion and Huichuan Mansion, and started a big battle with Gao Zhisheng.

Di Qing led 30,000 soldiers and horses, went out of Jianchang Mansion, and invaded Shanju County in Dali in the west.

Di Qingbing went out of Jianchang Mansion, fought successively, and in just half a month, occupied half of Shanju County.

It wasn't until Dali sent heavy troops to block in front of him that he stopped attacking.

After Zhu Neng led his troops south, he also successively took Dali's one prefecture and one county in the south, and then he was also stumped by Dali's heavy troops.

Just when both the West and the South were in a difficult situation.

Chong Shiheng, who had been fighting against Gao Zhisheng for a month at the junction of Jianchang Mansion and Huichuan Mansion, suddenly launched a surprise attack and broke Gao Zhisheng's army of 100,000.

Gao Zhisheng was forced to lead the remnants of the army to retreat.

Chong Shiheng led the soldiers and horses to pursue Shengsheng all the way, successively broke through the land of the two prefectures, and killed the outside of the mansion where the capital of Dali was located.

The capital of Dali is in danger.

The king of Dali was frightened and prepared to send heavy troops from the west and south to help.

was stopped by Gao Zhisheng.

Gao Zhisheng proposed that the king of Dali retreat to Tengchong Mansion and use the two moats of Gaoligong Mountain and Lancang River to resist the Song soldiers.

At the same time, Tengchong Mansion, Yongchang Mansion and Jingyun were held.

Tengchong Mansion, Yongchang Mansion and Jingyun Mansion are the three largest prefectures in Dali.

The sum of the three mansions is equivalent to half of Dali.

As long as these three places are not lost, Dali can still make a comeback and counterattack the Great Song Dynasty.

However, if you retreat to Tengchong Mansion and use the two moats of Gaoligong Mountain and Lancang River, Dali will have to give up the Jining Mansion, Xiushan County, Weichu Mansion and other places that are still in your hands.

The king of Dali was not willing to give up these places at all, and vetoed Gao Zhisheng's proposal.

Gao Zhisheng saw that the king of Dali County could not listen to his admonition, and in order to protect himself, he defected from the Dali capital with his soldiers and horses, and prepared to rush to Tengchong Mansion and act according to his plan.

It's just that when he left with the soldiers and horses, he was bumped into by Yang Yunxian, who had already been secretly eyeing him.

In order to prevent Gao Zhisheng from leaving, Yang Yunxian led his soldiers and horses to fight Gao Zhisheng.

In the end, Gao Zhisheng won and fled to Tengchong Mansion with the remaining soldiers and horses.

Dali self-harmed with both arms, which made Chong Shiheng see almost.

Chong Shiheng did not hesitate to wave his troops into the capital of Dali.

When Chong Shiheng led the army to the gate of the Dali Palace, Duan Suzhen, the king of Dali County, led the Manchu Dynasty civil and military to kneel and surrender.

After the surrender of the king of Dali County, Chong Shiheng asked Duan Suzhen, the king of Dali County, to help recruit the most Ning Mansion, Xiushan County and other places.

Duan Suzhen, the king of Dali County, agreed to Chong Shiheng's request, but also put forward his own conditions, that is, the Great Song Dynasty must not harm his life or imprison him, and he can become a monk under the nose of the Great Song Dynasty officials.

Chong Shiheng sent someone to quickly tell Zhao Zhen about it.

After Zhao Zhen learned of this, he agreed to Duan Suzhen's request, and also gave Duan Suzhen a legal name.

Since then, there has been one less king of Dali in the world, and one more monk named Chen.

With the help of the dust monks, Chong Shiheng took Dali's most Ning Mansion, Xiushan County and other places without blood.

Only Tengchong Mansion, Yongchang Mansion, and Jingyun were left in Dali, which were controlled by Gao Zhisheng, who had defected.

After Chong Shiheng took places such as Jining Mansion and Xiushan County, he did not rush to attack Tengchong Mansion and other places.

Instead, he helped the imperial court digest the newly acquired territory first.

It wasn't until the newly acquired territory was almost digested that Chong Shiheng sent Di Qing to lead 50,000 forbidden troops and Yang Yunxian to lead 50,000 naturalized troops to attack Tengchong Mansion.

Gao Zhisheng relied on Gaoligong Mountain to block Di Qing and his party for more than three months.

In the end, it was Di Qing who led 3,000 iron cavalry to attack a large battalion of soldiers and horses of Gao Zhisheng to break the game.

Then Di Qing and Yang Yunxian chased Gao Zhisheng and killed all the way to Yongchang Mansion and Jingyun.

In the end, Yang Yunxian chased Gao Zhisheng in Jingyun's Lanna City and beheaded Gao Zhisheng.

The war in Dali has since come to an end.

And Cochin is still in a chaotic war.

It took three years for Chong Shiheng, Zhu Neng, Di Qing and others to conquer Dali.

The cochin melee also lasted for three years.

After three years of war, the distribution of the tripartite forces in Cochin has changed only slightly.

On the battlefield, the soldiers and horses have changed from young and middle-aged to old and weak women and children.

The only thing that remains unchanged is that no matter which of the three of them gets a huge amount of money, they will not hesitate to send it to the Great Song Dynasty to buy armaments from the Great Song Dynasty.

Kou Ji, the mastermind behind the situation of Cochin, did not appear on the battlefield of Cochin from beginning to end.

He has always lived in Bianjing City, and he controls everything steadily.

In addition to controlling everything, I also have the leisure to discuss martial arts with others.

……

Bianjing City.

Inside the Great Xiangguo Temple.

Kou Ji sat on the futon in the meditation room, stroked the short beard at the corner of his mouth, stared at a thirty-year-old monk in front of him, and said suspiciously: "The master really doesn't know how to use a yang finger?" ”

"Amitabha, the little monk has already said that he doesn't know what Yiyang refers to, why does Master Kou ask each other so hard?"

The great monk pronounced a Buddha horn and whispered a word of joy or sorrow.

Kou Ji pinched his chin and said, "What about the six-vein divine sword?" ”

The great monk glanced at Kou Ji, pronounced a Buddha call, and slowly closed his eyes.

Kou Ji muttered, "Isn't there any?" ”

The great monk slowly opened his eyes, stared at Kou Ji and said seriously: "Why does the donor think that the little monk will have a yang finger and a six-vein divine sword? ”

Kou Ji smiled brightly and said, "I used to listen to the merchants who came from Dali to say that the Duan clan of Dali has a family heirloom martial arts one-yang finger and a six-vein divine sword. ”

"Folk rumors, Lord Kou Shi will also believe it?"

The Great Monk questioned.

Kou Ji smiled dryly: "I naturally don't believe in folk rumors, but they may not be empty, so I want to ask." If there is, I'll be able to see it. ”

The great monk pronounced the Buddha horn again and said, "I'm afraid that will disappoint Master Kou." ”

Kou Ji smiled indifferently and said, "Master Lichen is still used to living in Daxiangguo Temple?" ”

The great monk said softly: "Eating and drinking without worry, and being accompanied by scriptures and books every day is the long-cherished wish of the little monk." Now that he can get what he wants, the little monk is already satisfied. ”

Kou Ji nodded slowly and said with a smile: "That's good...... The official family was afraid that you would not be used to living in Daxiangguo Temple, so they specially sent me over to ask. ”

The great monk bowed slightly, "There is a labor official's family who is concerned." ”

Kou Ji smiled and continued: "Yang Yunxian is a person who understands current affairs. After descending my Great Song, he helped me do a lot of things. The official family intended to promote him, but he had the idea of resigning.

Master Lichen felt that he should let it go or keep it. ”

The big monk was stunned for a moment, closed his eyes and said: "The little monk is already a monk, and he no longer cares about mundane affairs." ”

Kou Ji smiled and said, "It's better for the master to see him, and it's better to persuade him." As an official of the imperial court, he did not obey the orders of the officials, but he would suffer a great loss. ”

The great monk nodded slowly.

Kou Ji got up and saluted slightly, "Then I won't disturb Master Qingxiu." ”

"Lord Kou Shi Slow ......"

Kou Ji nodded and walked out of the great monk's meditation room.

Outside the meditation room.

The two little guys, one on the left and one on the right, stood at the door of the meditation room, like door gods.

Kou Ji glanced at the two little guys and said lightly, "Are you willing to say it now?" ”

The two little ones looked at each other without saying a word.

Kou Ji glared at the two little guys and shouted, "After returning home, continue to punish the station!" ”

After saying this, Kou Ji snorted, put his hands behind his back, and walked away.

The two little ones grimaced at each other's faces, then laughed and followed in Koji's footsteps.

Kou Ji took the two little ones into the carriage and walked all the way along the royal street to the outside of Bianjing City.

It's been three years.

Bianjing City is still the same Bianjing City, and there is not much change in architecture and scenery.

The only change is that there are more children on the streets with bookbags and suitcases.

The changes outside Bianjing City are quite big.

There is one more school called Forensic Medicine Hall in the south of the city, and there is one less royal garden in the north of the city, and there is one more Tiansheng Hall.

There is an extra county school in the town of Ruian.

There is one more scourge in the Koufu.

Kou Ji returned to the house with the two little ones, and a petite figure stumbled at him, plunged into his arms, and screamed sweetly.

"Daddy......"

"Good ......"

Kou Ji's heart was warmed in an instant, even if the little guy in his arms quietly stuffed the two freshly caught carp into his arms, he pretended not to see it.

"Stealing fish from the fish pond again?"

"Hee-hee-hee-hee-hee......"

Kou Ji lowered his head and asked the little man in his arms, and the little man nestled in his arms and didn't speak, just a strong smirk.

"Kou Hui?!"

An angry roar sounded behind the villain, and the villain was frightened and drilled into Kou Ji's arms.

When the words landed, I saw Xiang Yan walking out of the backyard with a black face.

Xiang Yan glared at the villain and shouted, "Do you know what you did, you are embarrassed to hide?!" ”

Kou Ji hugged his daughter and said, "A three-year-old child, what can she do." ”

Xiang Yan glared and said, "She harmed the fish raised by her grandfather!" ”

Kou Ji smiled indifferently: "It's just a few fish, I'll send someone to get some identical ones when I go back." ”

Xiang Yan snorted, "You just spoil her, be careful to spoil her......"

Kou Ji chuckled under his breath and did not speak.

Xiang Yan's eyes fell on the two little guys behind Kou Ji, and saw that the two little guys were following behind Kou Ji in an orderly manner, without the naughty and mischievous appearance on weekdays, and immediately asked, "What trouble did the two of them get into again?" ”

When Kou Ji heard this, the smile on his face fell, and he said angrily: "Today, Zhang Gong taught them to read, and they were a little sleepy in the middle, and after a while, they woke up and found that these two scourges had painted him a big face. ”

The corners of Xiang Yan's mouth twitched, and she glared at Kou Tianci and Liu Boxu viciously.

Kou Ji turned around and said coldly: "Go and stand at the gate of Xiaozhuyuan, when will you be called, when will you be able to move around." ”

The two little ones went to the small bamboo garden obediently.

Kou Ji sent the two little guys, accompanied his daughter for a while, and said to Xiang Yan: "Where's Grandfather?" ”

"Inside the room."

"I'll take a look."

Kou Ji handed his daughter to Xiang Yan and hurried to Kou Zhun's bedroom.

After arriving in Kou Zhun's bedroom, he saw that Kou Zhun was drinking, so he didn't disturb Kou Zhun and boiled tea in Kou Zhun's room.

By the time Kou Zhun woke up, the tea had already been prepared.

Kou Ji handed the hot tea to Kou Zhun.

Kou Zhun said with hot tea: "The old man just occasionally feels cold, and he doesn't have any serious illness, you don't have to stay by the old man's side." ”

Kou Ji laughed in a low voice: "I'm my grandson, I don't guard you, do I still guard others?" ”

When Kou Zhun heard this, he was speechless, with a smile on his face, and tasted the tea carefully.

Smiling and smiling, Kou Zhun suddenly remembered something and asked, "Where is Wang Shu's unsuccessful weapon now?" ”

Kou Ji replied: "After the term of office in Zhending Mansion expired, he was transferred to Xingqing Road as a transfer envoy. ”

Kou Zhun nodded slowly, "Find an opportunity to transfer him back, if you can help him, you will help him." If you can't help, forget it. ”

"Grandchildren understand ......"

"Where's Yuan'er?"

"He was making a fuss about going out, and my uncle asked someone to bring me a letter, and I arranged an errand for him to go to Tengchong Road to hone his skills in the newly built Tengchong Road.

If I can hone it, I'll change places for him when I go back.

If he can't hone it, in a few years, I will transfer him back to Bianjing City and arrange an idle errand for him. ”

“……”

Kou Zhun nodded in a bit of a trance and did not speak again.

Kou Ji took the initiative to speak: "Wang Yunsheng, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, begged for bones from the official family a few days ago, and the official family has agreed. Now that there is a vacancy in the Ministry of Works, I have recommended my uncle to the official family.

If nothing else, my uncle and aunt will be able to return to Beijing before the end of the year. ”

Kou Zhun was stunned for a moment, looked at Kou Ji and said, "Are you preparing for the old man?" ”

Kou Ji smiled and said, "Your old body is still strong...... And I can live for many more years. ”

Kou Zhun snorted: "Then what are you doing when you send Wang Shu back to Beijing?" You yourself are now walking on the edge of the knife, and you dare to send Wang Shu back to Beijing to serve as the secretary of the Ministry of Industry.

Do you think that others will not find the right to impeach you? ”

Kou Ji smiled and said, "Why does grandfather think that I am walking on the blade of a knife. ”

Kou Zhun snorted coldly: "One of the disciples under you is more powerful than the other, and you are a supreme minister. Aren't you walking on the edge of a knife? ”

Kou Ji smiled: "Grandfather is too worried. ”

Kou Zhun shouted: "The old man didn't worry too much. Chong Shiheng and Zhu Neng destroyed Dali, had the merit of destroying the country, and now they are listed as first-class dukes. Di Qing is in Dali, and he also has the merit of destroying the country, and now he is a second-class duke.

They're your people.

Those protégés in your Tiansheng Pavilion, after leaving the Tiansheng Pavilion, one by one either stayed in the capital to become a Beijing official, or went to the place to serve as the governor of a state.

The old man heard that after they arrived at the place, they rectified the rule of officials and made remarkable achievements.

In the next selection of officials, a large number of them will be promoted.

It won't be long before they will stand in the court of my Great Song Dynasty.

When the time comes, you will be strong and strong.

Isn't it just walking on a knife edge? ”

When Kou Ji heard this, he smiled and said, "Grandfather is too worried, the things you are worried about will not happen." ”

Kou Zhun looked incredulous.

Kou Ji pondered for a moment and said, "In a short time, I will have to do a lot of angry things with the official family. It's hard to say whether those people will recognize me or not.

So grandfather, your worries are not going to happen. ”

"Heaven is angry?"

Kou Zhun was slightly stunned, and hesitated: "It's like that forensic hall?" ”

Kou Ji smiled and nodded.

After some of the servants became teachers, Kou Ji set up a forensic medical hall.

As soon as the forensic hall was erected, it naturally attracted people's attention.

After some careful investigation, they knew exactly what the forensic hall does.

Then the forensic hall was advertised.

After the doctors in the apricot forest learned about this, they found the forensic hall and competed with the military doctors and servants in the forensic hall.

Now, the military doctors and servants in the forensic hall have fought with the doctors in the apricot forest.

Incompatible with each other, the same as fire and water.

As the founder of the forensic hall, Kou Ji was naturally remembered by the doctors in the apricot forest.

Now Kou Ji's reputation in the apricot grove is stinky.

It's just that Kou Ji's good reputation among the people is too big, and the little bit of notoriety spread by the doctors in the apricot forest doesn't have much impact on Kou Ji.

The reason why Kou Zhun knew about this was because there was a medical department in the Wenchang Academy.

Some of the doctors inside, in order to move to the forensic hall, also specially looked for Kou Zhun and asked Kou Zhun to come forward to talk to Kou Ji.

Kou Zhun shirked the matter, but also knew that Kou Ji had a bad reputation in the apricot forest.

After seeing Kou Ji nodding, Kou Zhun nodded slowly and said, "Then you can do it with the official......

Kou Ji said with a smile: "Then the matter of my uncle's dispatch to Beijing is so decided?" ”

Kou Zhun said indifferently: "It's up to you." ”

Kou Ji chuckled under his breath and didn't say anything more.

Since Wang Shu was transferred out of Bianjing City, Kou Zhun has not asked Wang Shu and his wife for half a point.

Now that he mentions this matter in front of Kou Ji from time to time, it is obvious that he thinks a little about Wang Shu and his wife.

Kou Ji naturally wanted to follow his wishes and get Wang Shu and his wife back to Bianjing.

As for the spoiled Wang Yuan, he is staying outside now.

When can I mature, when can I be a down-to-earth person, and when will I return to Bianjing.

Kou Ji accompanied Kou Zhun and talked for a while, then left Kou Zhun's bedroom.

Out of Kou Zhun's bedroom, Kou Ji entered another courtyard.

There were many maids and servants in the courtyard, and when they saw Kou Ji, they bowed down one after another to salute.

Kou Ji nodded slightly, and stepped into the bedroom in the courtyard.

in the bedroom.

Kou Zhong was lying on the bed, his mouth was weakly open, and beside his bed, there was a young man kneeling, who was carefully serving him to drink medicine.

Kou Zhun was sick in bed, which was caused by the occasional cold, and he could be cured in a few days.

Kou Zhong was different, he was really seriously ill.

Kou Ji invited many doctors to help Kou Zhong heal, but nothing came well.

Now it's all about some precious medicinal herbs.

Kou Ji slowly walked to the edge of Kou Zhong's bed, and Kou Zhong saw Kou Ji and wanted to get up.

Kou Ji's face sank and he shook his head.

Kou Zhong smiled bitterly and lay on the bed without moving.

Kou Ji walked to the side of the bed and patted the young man who was helping Kou Zhong with the medicine on the shoulder.

The boy turned around and winked at Kou Ji.

Kou Ji whispered to the young man, "You rest for a while, and leave this matter to me." ”

As he spoke, Kou Ji took the medicine bowl from the young man's hand.

The young man obediently handed the medicine bowl to Kou Ji, and silently opened his mouth to Kou Zhong.

Kou Zhong looked at the young man with a kind gaze and nodded slightly.

The boy got up and stepped aside.

Kou Ji took the medicine bowl and sat on the edge of Kou Zhong's bed.

Kou Zhong said weakly: "Let the young master, you help the old servant feed the medicine, the old servant really can't help it." ”

Kou Ji fed Kou Zhong medicine and said, "Okay, you can be regarded as watching me grow up and know my temperament." In my eyes, there is not much distinction between a master and a servant.

In my eyes, you are an elder.

Just let me serve you. ”

Kou Zhong drank the medicine fed by Kou Ji, and said with vague emotion: "If you can enjoy the medicine and servants of the master's family, there is probably only one old servant in the whole Song Dynasty." ”

Kou Ji said casually: "The person who fed you the medicine is still a Great Song Dynasty privy envoy, a figure under one person and above ten thousand people." Are you particularly excited? ”

Kou Zhong nodded earnestly.

Kou Ji didn't care.

The two did not continue to speak after that.

Kou Ji fed the medicine, Kou Zhong drank the medicine, and after drinking the medicine, Kou Zhong slowly spoke: "You have a lot of opportunities every day, you don't have to come to see the old servant every day, and you don't have to feed the old servant every time you drink the medicine." ”

Kou Ji put down the empty bowl and said with a smile: "You took care of me before, and now I take care of you, isn't it a matter of course?" ”

Kou Zhong smiled bitterly and shook his head.

Is it really right?

Not at all to be taken for granted.

If this matter spreads, people up and down the Great Song Dynasty can drop their jaws in shock.

Kou Ji glanced back at the young man standing behind him, and said to Kou Zhong, "Didn't I say that? Go back and choose one person from my younger brother to wear filial piety for you, why do you have to take a grandson? ”

Kou Zhong's eyes fell on the young man, and said with a smile: "The old servant saw that the dumb tiger had taken in an apprentice and raised him like a son, so he was a little moved in his heart, and when he went to the lonely garden to see the rescued children, he found him.

The old servant felt that he was quite compatible with the old servant, so he adopted him. ”
