"The three Aiqing, they are all so old, don't be angry."

After the Empress Dowager Cao sat down steadily, she said in a relaxed tone: "Now the Empress Dowager Xiao has the sincerity to reconcile with the Great Liang, and she also sent me a letter privately, wanting to change the name of the country to Liao, hoping that the Liang Dynasty will only have to repair for ten thousand years and never go to war." In this regard, the mourning family expresses deep sympathy and support. He also promised her that when they held the Zen ceremony, they would send a state envoy to watch the ceremony. ”

The Queen Mother pulled the topic away and pulled it to the parents.

The three princes paused for a while.

Empress Dowager Cao said slowly: "Empress Dowager Xiao is so sincere, how can I, Liang Guo, not know the number of etiquette." Therefore, the mourning family has such an idea, our garrison in Mozhou should not exceed the Youzhou garrison, and now the Youzhou garrison is 50,000, and we are also 50,000, which is reasonable. ”

Hearing this, the three princes actually glanced at each other, and no one raised any objections.

At the same time, the enthusiasm of the three princes for the main general of Mozhou has decreased sharply.

In the end, Empress Dowager Cao suggested that the royal garrison of Mozhou should be 20,000, and the garrison of each of the three major lords should be 10,000, so as to make up 50,000 people.

As for the main general, it will be selected by these 50,000 people, and whoever wins will be the main general.

Hearing this, the three princes began to raise objections, and the opinions of the three people were highly unified, and they all said that for the boss, the level of force is not the most important, just like Huo Zizhen, he is not the first general of the Northern Expedition, but if he does not rebel, he is actually a very qualified coach.

At this time, Empress Dowager Cao said again, then simply send five good players to each army to compete, and if anyone wins, let the Zhonglang of that army be the champion general of Mozhou in the future.

This time, the three major princes began to calculate the combat power in their hearts, Tang Zhen was a little weak-hearted, he felt that the ones he sent this time were either veterans or recruits, and if he competed, he would inevitably suffer.

But after thinking about it, everyone was there with the garrison anyway, even if someone became the main general, so it was a troublesome job, so he simply didn't raise any objections.

At this time, Ximen Zhensen is the happiest person, and Xiao Han is under his command.

And Empress Dowager Cao is sitting on the mountain watching the tiger fight, she doesn't care who finally becomes the main general, as long as her garrison is the most, she actually has control.

The old prime minister Meng Danqing was also thinking about whether to transfer a few generals to Mozhou quickly, but he gave up a little, feeling that the position of the main general was very chicken.

The meeting between Empress Dowager Cao and the three humerus veterans was tense at the beginning, but when the meeting ended, it was peaceful, like a group of old friends sitting together chatting.

But people with a heart can understand that there is not a word of nonsense between them, and they are all fighting for their own interests, but the interests are not big, so as not to make people angry.

After the big policy was arranged, the matter of the Empress Dowager Cao and the patriarch of the three major lords had ended, and the rest would be left to their respective families to do by themselves.

He wrote a letter to Wang Caotian, to the effect that you old things, don't go up to compete, although they are all wooden guns and knives, and there are no sharp blades, but your old bones, can you withstand the fight?

When Wang Caotian received the letter, he was not happy at that time, and replied to the old patriarch: The veteran should be strong and strong, and he can still fight!

Tang Zhen replied: You old things, come back, let Tang Qi lead the Fourth Division to garrison Mozhou. I see that the little emperor Zhao Ce is about to move, recuperate for two years, and the next step may be to fight Sangla. If you can still fight, go and help Tang Su fight Sangla.

When Wang Caotian heard that he was going to let him fight Sangla, he was overjoyed and threw the equipment and men and horses of the remaining first, second, and third divisions to Tang Qi, and the three veterans ran away and went to Longyou to reorganize the Third Army of Shence.

At the same time, Zhang Yunlong and other veterans also withdrew, and at this time there was no chief general in Mozhou, only Zhao Guangli, the chief of the army, to coordinate the various departments.

Seeing such a scene, Yeluman, the envoy of the Right Law, wrote a letter to the Empress Dowager Xiao, saying that the Liang army had withdrawn most of the main generals and was very sincere.

Empress Dowager Xiao was overjoyed, and at the same time withdrew 200,000 troops and returned to Shengjing, preparing for the major event of the three-year-old son's enthronement, as well as changing the country's name to "Liao".

——

"It's a good harvest!"

In summer, the first batch of grain in Huainan was bumper and sent to all parts of the country. The people of Huainan have begun to be busy planting the second crop.

Although Yanyun Sixteen is still under the control of the Liao State, more than half of the land of Hebei has returned to the embrace of the motherland, and the people of Hebei have returned to their hometowns and lived a stable life.

Although the taxes of the Liang court were also very heavy, they were not to the point of madness, and Emperor Shengde was a benevolent emperor, although he was very young, he had already won the approval of the people, and for the famine land, he not only exempted taxes in time, but also tried every means to relieve disasters.

It's a pity that although the little emperor is benevolent, he has no real power, at least the army is not under his control, so he looks sullen.

I heard that the Mozhou army was preparing for a martial arts competition and selecting the first general, and the little emperor was about to move, and said to the Empress Dowager Cao, if it is peaceful today, I want to go out and take a look, this Mozhou competition is a good way out.

Tang Qi's injuries were repeated over and over again, but they were always unfavorable, leaving a long scar on his ribs, which looked very terrifying.

Of course, Tang Yuan couldn't see it, it was Hu Lanhua who told him, from the left □ room to the bottom of the ribs, there was a long big gap, and it was really not easy for General Tang to survive this time.

Tang Qi counted the equipment of the 123rd Division, 1,820 heavy iron armor, and she managed to make up enough 2,000 hangs to equip it to the army.

After counting the total number of people, nine thousand three hundred, she recruited another seven hundred soldiers, which was enough for ten thousand.

The people she borrowed from the fifth and seventh brothers at the beginning, after many bloody battles, there were no more left, but she still insisted on her promise and returned some of them.

Later, when he received a letter from the fifth brother, he spoke vaguely, did not say that he agreed, nor did he say that he disagreed.

Tang Qi could only let the Dianhan and Dianxiao brothers prepare to go back. And the veteran Chen Duo had serious burns on his hands, and he could no longer fight, so he returned to his hometown. His son was arranged by Tang Qi to the Shandong Recruit Training Camp and became the captain. The old general was very satisfied.

Of course, Tang Qi didn't have so much power at this time, and she was looking for Seventh Brother Tang Xiao to do this matter.

Tang Xiao has always regarded Xiaomei as his own person, and he didn't care. just wrote to Tang Qi and said: "After the Mozhou competition, remember to bring Bai Ke, Tang Yuan and others to the house as guests, my father wants to meet these people in person, if they can be generals, it will also be the harvest of our Northern Expedition." ”。

Tang Qi got what she wanted, and removed the words "temporary" and "recruit", and now she has two unit numbers, one is the Fourth Division of the Third Army of Shence, and the other is the Fifth Division of the Mozhou Army.

Zhao Guangli, the superintendent of Mozhou, bullied Tang Qi as a young girl and put her last.
