In the clouds, Cai is still in the dormitory.

Cai is still holding Xiao Duoli in his left hand and Master Li in his right hand, watching his wives and concubines play werewolf killing, how can they be injured or poisoned.

It turns out -

On that day, Liu Tao did lead dozens of dead soldiers to launch a sneak attack on Cai Zhen, and the weapons used by the dozens of dead soldiers were indeed smeared with poison.

But what Liu Tao didn't know was that this was a flaw that Cai still deliberately sold to them.

What kind of force is Cai still for?

Can these dozens of people hurt Cai Ying?

What's more, Cai still had ambushed the archers around a long time ago.

As soon as Liu Tao and them broke out, hundreds of sharpshooters immediately fired a volley.

The vast majority of the dead were shot and killed on the spot.

Liu Tao and the six dead men rushed to Cai Yan's side, and Liu Ziyu hugged Liu Tao.

Immediately, Liu Tao saw that the two scribes dressed as people around Cai still killed the remaining dead soldiers cleanly, and the legendary number one master in the world, Cai still remained motionless from beginning to end.

Liu Tao scolded Liu Ziyu for being disloyal and unfilial, Liu Ziyu turned a deaf ear and complained to Cai Zhen, so he desperately pulled Liu Tao away.

After Liu Tao and Liu Ziyu's father and son left, Cai still let people release the news that he was seriously injured by Liu Tao and others and was seriously poisoned.

But—

To be on the safe side, some people still don't hide it.

Among these people.

Wenchen has, Li Gang, Chen Yu, Wu Yong, Chen Hoop, Zhao Liangsi, Lu Jiang, Chen Gongfu, Li Guang, Zhao Kai, Xiao Ang, Bao Kang, Yan Shun, Guo Yong, Qiu Xi, Tang Chong, Chen Kangbo, Hu Shijiang, Zhang Kejian, Li Wei, Lin Shiyi.

There are military generals, Yue Fei, Han Shizhong, Wu Jue, Niu Gao, Zhai Jin, Zhang Qing, Guan Sheng, Wang De, Yang Zaixing, Li Bao, Zhang Xian, and Lu Junyi.

From Cai Ying's arrangement, it is not difficult to see that Cai still believes in his important ministers - of course, Cai is still arranging this, mainly because he is afraid of self-defeating, don't be seriously injured and poisoned because of his fraud, but really let his small force collapse.

In addition, it is not difficult for a discerning person to see that Cai is still mainly targeting Wenchen this time, but a military general, a military general who commands the army.

Cai is still like this, of course, for a reason.

Xiucai rebelled for three years.

Wen Chen will not be able to do anything without the people who gave them power, and he will never be able to become a problem for Cai Zhen.

But the generals are different, if they disobey Cai Yingyang, then for Cai Zhen's small force, the consequences will be unpredictable, and they may even ruin Cai Zhen's small force.

Therefore, for the army, although Cai still has set up a political work system to supervise and set up an intelligence system to monitor, he must also hand it over to generals he can trust - unlike the civilian who can be accommodated, Cai still has absolutely zero tolerance for military generals, especially military generals who command the army, in other words, literati are not loyal to themselves, as long as they can do their duty, Cai can still be used, but military generals can't, military generals, especially military generals who command troops, as long as they are not loyal to themselves, Cai still will never give them the opportunity to command the army.

Therefore, Cai is still in the process of serious injury and poisoning, by the way, to see how loyal his generals, especially the generals who command the army, are loyal to him?

……

Xiao Luzi tiptoed in, and then whispered to Cai Ying, who personally went down to play werewolf killing with his wives and concubines: "Master Hou, Li Changshi asks to see you." ”

Cai still took off the blindfold and said, "Call him in." ”

Not long after Xiao Yanzi went out, he lured Li Gang in.

Seeing Li Gang coming in, Cai still asked Xiao Duoli to be lazy for him, and then walked towards Li Gang.

Li Gang swept Cai Ying's wife and concubine from the corner of his eye, and sighed secretly: "Master Hou's fertility is no one!" ”

Cai Ying's achievements in the past few months have indeed been remarkable - not to mention Cheng Wan'er, Hua Baoyan, Hua Xiangrong, Cai Ying's original wives and concubines are pregnant, only the daughter of the former Liao royal family, Xiao Duoli, Xiao Guige, Yelu Yabuli, Yelu Guyi, Yelu Yu Liyan, Yelu Liyan, Zhao Wanfei Liyan, Jin Princess Xiao Lin'er, Liang Princess Xiao Ling'er, Yan Princess Xiao Yanyan, Liaodao Sect Yelu Hongji's third daughter Yelu Tri, Zong's daughter Yelu Jili, Zong's daughter Yelu Saige, Zong's daughter Yelu Lost, Zong's daughter Yelu Ten Brother, Descendant daughter Xiao Lili, The daughter of the descendant Xiao Xu'er, the daughter of the descendant clan Xiao Fangfang, the palace concubine Xiao Li, the palace concubine Xiao Shuang'er, and the palace concubine Xiao Tengteng, because Cai was still fortunate many times during this time, all of them were pregnant.

It can be said that these women are all entrusted with the blessings of Zhao Ji, Tong Guan, and Liu Tao, if it weren't for Zhao Ji, Tong Guan, and Liu Tao who "stabbed" Cai Ying, how could Cai Ying, who should be in charge of everything, have so much time to rest, and without so much rest time, how could Cai still digest all the royal daughters of the Liao State and let many of them conceive their own children?

Actually-

Li Gang didn't look at how strong Cai Ying's fertility was, nor did he look at these daughters of the imperial family of the Liao State - although they were pregnant also had very important political significance (they could stabilize the hearts of people in Yundi), Li Gang's attention was actually on Zhao Mijin, Zhao Fujin, and Zhao Fujin.

Li Gang thought to himself: "When necessary, maybe you can rely on the three emperors to be a link to buy your majesty a little time." ”

But when he thought that the key to Cai Ying's city government and strategy was Cai Ying's ambition, Li Gang was a little worried that Zhao Mijin, Zhao Fujin, and Zhao Fujin would not be able to take on this important task.

Li Gang thought to himself: "The key is that this matter also depends on His Majesty's attitude." ”

Thinking of this, Li Gang couldn't help but glance at Master Li who was holding a child and watching others play games out of the corner of his eye, and thought worriedly: "If Your Majesty knows that Li Xingshou is here with the Hou Ye, I'm afraid you won't give up." ”

Seeing that Cai was still coming over, Li Gang gathered his thoughts, gave Cai Ying a deep salute, and said, "Master Hou, the next official has come to report on the autumn harvest." ”

When Cai still heard this, his spirit was lifted.

As soon as he arrived in Yundi, Cai still tried his best to promote the resumption of farming.

In this matter, Cai can still be said to spare no effort.

It is precisely because of this that the cultivated area of Yundi this year is the highest in 200 years.

In addition, God also gave Cai still face - the amount of rain in Yundi this year was moderate, and the locust plague that caused a lot of noise in Song Land did not affect Yundi.

Therefore, Cai still estimates that Yundi should have a good harvest this year.

However, because he has been "seriously injured and poisoned" for almost three months, Cai still does not know much about the recent growth of crops, so Cai is still somewhat worried.

Li Gang knew that Cai was still singing day and night recently, but in fact, Cai was still very worried about the harvest.

Therefore, as soon as there was a result, Li Gang came to report to Cai still as soon as possible.

Li Gang said: "According to incomplete statistics, the grain harvested in Shuozhou this year is about 1.9 million stones, the grain harvested in Yingzhou this year is about 2.1 million stones, the grain harvested in Ulzhou this year is about 1.6 million stones, the grain harvested in Wuzhou this year is about 1.1 million stones, the grain harvested in Xinzhou this year is about 1.2 million stones, the grain harvested in Huanzhou this year is about 950,000 stones, the grain harvested in Yunzhong this year is about 1.3 million stones, and the grain harvested in Ruzhou and Yanzhou this year is less than 100,000 stones. In addition, the total amount of grain harvested by Juntun is 6,398,422 stones, total: We have harvested about 16,500,000 stones of grain this year. ”

Li Gang couldn't hide his joy and said, "Master Hou, our Yundi has a bumper harvest this year!" ”

Cai Yan's heart finally let go.

With this 16.5 million stone of grain, not only will the people of Yundi not go hungry next year, but even if Yandi is recovered, the food will barely be enough.

In this way, Cai still finally has the capital to recover Yandi.

Cai was still overjoyed, and said: "This year's bumper harvest in the clouds, officials at all levels are dutiful, and they will be rewarded for three months, and those who have made great contributions must be reported in time by all governors, and I will reward them again as appropriate." ”

Li Gang responded: "No." ”

After hesitating for a moment, Li Gang said again: "Master Hou, now that Master Tong Guan is back, gathering an army of 500,000, and is bound to recover Yanjing, the general trend is inviolable, you can give up Yandi, our Yundi can already be self-sufficient, and you can already benefit one party." ”

Cai was still seriously injured and poisoned in order to test the loyalty of his generals, but this was not the main reason.

The main reason why Cai still did this was actually to let the Great Song Dynasty rest assured to recover Yanjing, and let the Great Liao rest assured to resist the invasion of the Great Song Dynasty, and then take advantage of the opportunity of the snipe and clam to seize Yanjing in one fell swoop.

In this regard, Li Gang not only sighed that Cai Ying's methods were clever, but also couldn't help but be a little worried about Da Song!

Li Gang is now forty years old and has entered the age of not being confused.

Over the years, Li Gang's career has not been smooth, it can be said that he is full of talent, but he has never been able to give full play.

Until Li Gang came to Cai still here.

Cai still reuses Li Gang, which can be said to spare no effort, giving Li Gang enough room to play and enough trust.

This made Li Gang extremely grateful to Cai Ying, and regarded Cai still as his Bole, he once vowed never to live up to Cai Ying's trust in him, and has always kept his own oath and has been doing his best to help Cai still run the territory that Cai still has laid.

In addition, Cai is still really loving the people like a son, and doing his best to let the people recuperate, which is very much in line with Li Gang's values.

Originally—

Li Gang and Cai can still work together for the benefit of one party.

However, Cai still has a heart for self-reliance.

This makes the loyal and patriotic Li Gang have been entangled - Li Gang very much hopes that Cai can still give up his ambitions, not to rob Zhao Song's territory, and not to be a traitor, but Cai is still going further and further on the road that Li Gang does not want, so that Li Gang does not know what to do.

Seeing that Li Gang hadn't given up yet, Cai still couldn't help but feel a little emotional, Song Yichao was indeed deeply rooted in the hearts of scholars, and he thought: "Zhao Ji has been mediocre to this extent, and there are still so many people defending him, it's really enviable!" ”

Cai was still silent for a while, and said, "If Song doesn't lose his deer, how can I chase him?" ”

After a pause, Cai still said again: "Whether you can take Zhao Song's country or not, in fact, it is not me, but in Zhao Guan's family, if he is not arrogant and lascivious, if he is so happy, if he does not push the Great Song Dynasty into the abyss, how can I take his country?" ”

Cai still looked to the east, and then said: "I know what you are worried about, I can tell you clearly, this Yanjing, Zhao Song specified that it can't be taken by Zhao Song, there are too many problems inside it, he can't eat Yanjing, if I don't take it, Yanjing will be obtained by the Jurchens sooner or later, you say, is this Yanjing better for me, or for the greedy and brutal Jurchens?" ”

Li Gang knew that Zhao Song had many problems.

Let's not talk about anything else, just talk about the grain for Yandi, and I'm afraid that the current Zhao Song won't be able to take it out.

But Li Gang still had a hint of luck, and said: "The matter is man-made, and the Great Song Dynasty may not be able to ......."

Cai still interrupted Li Gang with some annoyance: "You don't need to say it anymore, just wait and see, time will prove to you how weak Zhao Song is now, so weak that even if I don't make a move, it won't be able to beat Yanjing......"
