Zhao Zhen sighed and said faintly: "Why should I guard against him? I shouldn't have guarded against him, what I should have guarded against was the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty. ”

Chen Lin opened his mouth to admonish, but Zhao Zhen waved his hand and didn't let him say anything.

Zhao Zhen's thoughts, Chen Lin didn't understand.

It's not that Zhao Zhen is a human king, and his mind is a little unpredictable.

But now Zhao Zhen knows too much, and he is a little helpless.

Jiaozi shop and wrought iron workshop are of course important.

But Kou Ji's approach made him very relieved.

Kou Ji knew that Jiaozipu and wrought iron workshops were important, so he took the initiative to help the Heavenly Family leave a share, so that the Heavenly Family could control Jiaozipu and wrought iron workshops anytime and anywhere.

And what about the others?

Those who are in charge of salt and iron, those who are in charge of coinage, those who are in charge of wine, koji, tea, silk, porcelain, and so on.

If they come across a shocking deal, they will only try to take it for themselves.

I would never have thought that the profit would be one percent.

Or take the initiative to let the heavenly family occupy a part, so that it can be controlled anytime and anywhere.

They will only continue to take advantage of the heavens.

I can't wait to empty my heavenly home and move into my own house.

Compared with the two, people who are really good for the court and good for the heavenly family have to be guarded against?

Those moths in the court, those who want to hollow out the heavenly family, but they don't have to guard against it?

What is the rationale for this?

Zhao Zhen's distress, Kou Ji didn't know.

After Kou Ji returned to the house, he found a set of armor, put it on his body, and went out of the house.

When he was about to leave the house, the little panda held his leg and refused to let go.

That's right.

The two beasts that Kou Ji got from Zhu Neng's Mansion were pandas.

Kou Ji dragged the red panda off his lap, and as soon as he took a few steps, the small figure crawled to catch up with him and hugged his leg.

A pair of watery eyes stared at him, refusing to say anything.

In the end, Kou Ji could only forcefully pull it down and stuff it into Xiang Yan's hands, and Xiang Yan restrained him before he was willing to leave.

Koji left the palace in armor and made his way to the barracks outside the city.

Di Qing and the others, who had already received the news, were waiting at the gate of the camp.

When they saw Kou Ji, they stepped forward one after another and gave a salute.

"Inferior people, I've seen the system!"

Kou Ji said lightly: "No need to be polite...... Entering the camp ......"

Then the group entered the barracks.

As soon as I entered the barracks, I saw the soldiers in the camp practicing with swords in their hands.

They seemed to be practicing their battle formations, a little different from the first time Koji met them.

Kou Ji's eyes were a little inquiring.

Zhu You whispered to help Kou Ji solve his doubts, "A few days ago, General Zhu came over and instructed them to practice the battle formation, and cooperate with the heavy cavalry to fight ......."

Kou Ji nodded with a deep groan, "What does General Zhu mean is to focus on heavy cavalry, with bows and crossbows and foot soldiers as auxiliaries?" ”

Di Qing, Zhu You and the others nodded.

Koji continued, "What do you mean?" ”

Di Qing said in a deep voice: "I agree with General Zhu's suggestion, compared with the soldiers of the forbidden army, our advantage is not only the advantage of armor, but also heavy cavalry. In the forbidden army, there were many loose horses, rangers, and light horses, but there were no heavy horses.

In the face of heavy cavalry charges, they are difficult to stop. ”

Hearing this, Kou Ji nodded.

Di Qing was right.

There were many soldiers and horses in the imperial court, but there was only one heavy cavalry in the Jingsai army.

Now the Jingsai army has eroded and is stationed on the border.

It is impossible to be dragged to Bianjing City to fight.

Without the heavy armored cavalry to compete against the heavy armored cavalry in the Tiger Army, the soldiers of the forbidden army could only use some large ordnance to deal with the heavy cavalry in the Tiger Army.

But since the Tiger Army entered Bianjing City, it has not exposed heavy armor horses.

It has been hidden in the library.

When the soldiers of the forbidden army confront the Tiger Army, they may not take out large ordnance.

"Go to the barracks and say ......"

Kou Ji gave an order and took Di Qing and the others to the barracks.

After sitting down.

Kou Ji said: "The imperial court has decided that on the fifteenth day of the first month, in the school field next to Jinming Pond, let the Tiger Character Army and the soldiers and horses of the Dragon God Second Guard face off against each other. At that time, in addition to the official family and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, the people in Bianjing City will also go to watch. ”

The reason why the imperial court chose the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.

It is also to have fun with the people through the school competition.

Today, it is still during the great funeral of the first emperor, and it cannot be celebrated on a large scale during the New Year's holidays.

But you can use the school field to perform martial arts to let the people relax and relax.

Di Qing and the others had already gotten the news through the will of the imperial court.

So after Kou Ji said the news, they just nodded in unison and didn't say anything.

Kou Ji continued: "According to the meaning of the imperial court, only if we defeat the two guards of the Dragon God can we be qualified to confront the two forbidden armies of Zhuri and Tianwu. ”

Di Qing and the others nodded again.

Kou Ji said again: "Before entering Bianjing City, I asked you to hide the armor of the heavy armor horseman, also to prevent this, and now it is just used. ”

Di Qing and the others were all stunned, and they all looked at Kou Ji.

Di Qing muttered: "The control is to hide the heavy armor and wait until the critical time to take it out." ”

Kou Ji nodded and said, "Not bad...... Surprise is the only way to achieve greater victory. If we take out the heavy armor at the beginning, we will inevitably be discovered by the commanders of the Japanese and Tianwu armies.

When they play against us, they will definitely come up with ways to restrain them.

Heavy armor riding is certainly advantageous, but it is not invincible.

After all, there is still a way to exercise restraint on the battlefield. ”

Di Qing and the others pondered for a while, and nodded in unison.

Di Qing hesitated: "Commandery, the humble position also thought so before. It's just that in recent days, we have been instructed by General Zhu, and General Zhu has secretly sent a lot of manpower. If you don't take out the heavy armor cavalry when you are facing the two guards of the dragon god, but when you are playing against the two armies of Zhuri and Tianwu, you will take out the heavy armored cavalry, is it a little sorry for General Zhu? ”

Kou Ji looked at Di Qing with some surprise.

Di Qing actually understands the sophistication of people in the officialdom, a little surprised?

Di Qing glanced embarrassedly at the female woman sitting not far from him.

When Kou Ji saw this, he suddenly realized.

Apparently.

Di Qing still doesn't understand the Taoists in officialdom very well.

The reason why he was afraid of Zhu Neng's face was also taught by the second sister of the Cao family.

Kou Ji smiled: "You don't have to worry about this...... I've already told General Zhu that General Zhu won't care about these ......."

Di Qing breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and nodded with a smile.

Thereafter.

Everyone in the barracks sat together and discussed the order of the men and horses who came out of the battle.

The school field is performing martial arts, and it is naturally impossible to pull out tens of thousands of people to fight.

Therefore, the imperial court stipulated that the number of opponents should be three thousand.

After discussion.

Di Qing and the others came out of the barracks and began to practice with the soldiers.

Kou Ji left the second sister of the Cao family behind, ready to chat with the second sister of the Cao family for a while.

Facing the second sister of the Cao family sitting in front of him, dressed in military uniform, Kou Ji really didn't know what to say.

But thinking of the letter sent by Cao Tong before, Kou Ji still let out a long sigh and exhaled lightly.

"Second Sister ......"

The second sister of the Cao family frowned when she heard this, raised her eyebrows, and arched her hand: "Command, there are no fathers and sons in the military camp, let alone brothers and sisters." You can call the lowly general Cao. ”

The second sister of the Cao family is now a general in the army.

The authority is somewhat equivalent to Peng Yue.

They are all the leaders who teach the martial arts of the soldiers.

Although she is a woman in the barracks, there is something inappropriate.

But no one expelled her from the camp.

There are few female generals in history, but they are not absent.

In the case of not being able to reason, although the status of women is low, it is not so low that it is unbearable.

Women occasionally do some out-of-the-ordinary things, and the government and the opposition can also tolerate it.

Take the imperial examination, for example.

The few women who participated in science and technology recorded in the history books were all from the Song Dynasty.

One of them, Lin Youyu, took the children's exam at the age of nine, and the examiner read her article and thought it was good, not only did he not shout and kill, but also sent it to the official family to let the official family read it.

The official family finally gave her the title of widow.

There is also a person named Wu Zhiduan, who participated in the children's examination, although she was not as lucky as Lin Youyu, she was impeached by the officials, although the official family did not give her any name, but also gave her a little gold and silver.

The women of the people have done such an outrageous thing, and the government and the opposition can tolerate it.

Besides, the second sister of the Cao family.

She wants to show up and throw away the people of the Cao family, and there is no reason for the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty not to agree.

As long as the court doesn't canonize her as a big official or title, and let her appear in the court to discuss politics, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty will not bother to take care of her.

Kou Ji stared at the second sister of the Cao family, sighed, and said, "General Cao, I have returned to Bianjing City, why don't you go back to the house to worship." ”

The second sister of the Cao family was not afraid of Kou Ji, stared at Kou Ji with straight eyes, and asked, "The ruler wants to take care of the family affairs of the lowly position?" ”

Kou Ji said embarrassedly: "I don't want to force your family affairs...... It's just that Cao Tong begged me to help make peace and let you go home. ”

The second sister of the Cao family narrowed her eyes slightly, and said in a deep voice: "They want to lock me up again?" ”

Kou Ji smiled bitterly: "The raw rice has been cooked into cooked rice, how do they think it may lock you up." ”

The second sister of the Cao family frowned and said, "Then what do they want?" ”

Kou Ji said: "Although you are not justifiably married to Di Qing, the Cao family did not shout and kill and suppress Di Qing in this matter. Nor did they send anyone to kill you all, in order to maintain the manners.

It is not difficult to see from this point.

No matter what outrageous things you do, the Cao family will always treat you as the daughter of the Cao family. ”

When the second sister of the Cao family heard this, her face softened a lot.

Kou Ji continued: "Listen to Cao Tong's meaning, Uncle Cao plans to let you go back to the house and hold another wedding banquet for you, so that you can marry Di Qing justifiably. Let you and Di Qing raise their heads and be human beings in the future.

And not as it is now, unclear, unclear. ”

The second sister of the Cao family was stunned for a moment, gritted her teeth and said, "Will they be so kind?" ”

Kou Ji shook his head and smiled: "Uncle Cao, after all, he is your own uncle. Since he didn't shout at you when you married Di Qing, how could he lie to you in this matter.

You don't think that with the status and power of the Cao family, you can't be embarrassed by the two of you, right? ”

When the second sister of the Cao family heard this, she thought about it for a while, and said to Kou Ji: "I want to talk to my brother about this matter......

"Don't believe me?"

"No...... There are some things I have to be clear about. ”

Kou Ji nodded and said, "Then I'll go back and send someone to pass on the message to you." ”

The second sister of the Cao family got up and arched her hand and said, "It's hard to ...... you."

"...... as it should be"

After the second sister of the Cao family withdrew from the barracks.

Kou Ji let out a long sigh and said to himself: "It's your blessing to have such an uncle as Cao Wei on the stall." If it were someone else, in order to maintain the door style, I would definitely kill you......"

After the sigh.

Kou Ji sent someone to deliver a letter to Cao Tong.

It didn't take long for Cao Tong to arrive outside the camp.

The second sister of the Cao family went out to meet Cao Tong.

What the two said, Ko Ji didn't pay any more attention.

He stayed in the barracks to prepare for the school exercise a few days later.

Time flies.

On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.

A huge grandstand was erected next to the Kinmyeongchi Pond.

The surrounding school grounds have long been emptied.

One by one, the soldiers of the forbidden army, wearing armor and holding blades, guarded around the school grounds.

There were only 6,000 soldiers and horses on both sides.

But there are more than 30,000 soldiers and horses guarding the school grounds.

The soldiers of the forbidden army formed layer after layer of human walls, blocking the people who came to watch the battle from the school grounds.

As early as when the imperial court allowed the Tiger Army to confront the forbidden army, it had already sent a report to the people of Bianjing City.

Therefore, there were a lot of onlookers.

When the time comes.

Zhao Zhen sat on the dragon and arrived at the school under the escort of Yulongzhi.

Kou Zhun and other civil and military officials followed Zhao Zhenlong to the school.

In addition, there are also royal relatives and envoys of Fanbang.

When Zhao Zhen was led by Chen Lin, he sat on the dragon chair in the stands.

The people let out the cries of the mountains and the tsunami.

Zhao Zhen, who was sitting on the dragon chair, smiled slightly.

The shouts of the people were the most sincere and clean, far more comfortable than the sycophants of the civil and military officials in the court who pretended to be submissive.

Wait until the Manchu Dynasty civil and military, royal relatives, and Fanbang envoys sit down.

Zhao Zhen and Kou Zhun discussed it for a while, and announced the beginning.

The soldiers of the forbidden army guarding the school grounds made a way.

A group of people dressed in cloth clothes entered the school grounds.

Subsequently, a Keju competition kicked off on the school field.

It is impossible to verify when Keju began.

The word Kemari first appeared during the Warring States period.

Keju developed into the Song Dynasty and reached an unprecedented heyday.

Both in the government and the opposition, most people will kick a ball for a while in their leisure time to have fun.

Ding Wei, who has been beheaded, is said to be a master of Keju.

There are many bowers under the door.

Before the martial arts exercise began, it was Zhao Yuanyan who proposed it.

After the Manchu civil and military affairs discussed it, they also agreed to this matter.

There are two Keju teams on the field, one is the Royal Keju team, and the other is the Keju team of Shifu.

Shifu has a lot of money and raises ten Keju teams,

They are all composed of Keju masters, and only the Keju team of Shifu can compete with the Royal Keju team.

In the eyes of many people in later generations, Keju used rattan balls.

Not really.

Keju uses inflatable balls.

The inflatable balls used for Keju can be traced back to the Northern and Southern Dynasties.

The ancients called the inflatable ball a kick.

In the Tang Dynasty, Zhong Wupo also wrote a "Qi Yu Fu" for this purpose.

A goal is an inherent single goal, known as the eye of the wind.

It is far smaller than the goal used in football matches in later generations, and it is more difficult to shoot.

The two Keju teams are on the Keju field, and you have been fighting for a long time.

In the end, it ended with the victory of the Royal Keju team.

After Keju.

It's playing polo.

After another fight.

It was the turn of the school to perform martial arts.

This school martial arts performance, under the holding of the imperial court, has become an exhibition competition.

But when Zhu Neng's lieutenant led the three thousand forbidden army soldiers selected from the Dragon Guard Army to enter, no one regarded this as an exhibition match anymore.
