"Huh! Your Majesty, the old minister has already gone to the book and the King of Jin for a thousand years, and there must be a result soon. Yu Wenshu replied with a smile.

"Taifu can bring him another letter, I don't want to see him meet Li Yuan's sword soldiers, understand?"

"Your Majesty, although rest assured, Chitose will never move troops, but this method still needs to be thought of slowly."

"Okay, if nothing else, you wait---"

"Your Majesty, the old minister still has a matter, you should tell Your Majesty about it." Yu Wenshu hurriedly said.

"Oh? Sit down and talk. ”

"Your Majesty, King Chitose of Jin is now in the palace of Beiping in Zhuo County, and yesterday he sent someone to bring a message to the old minister, saying that in order to reduce the pressure of the troops in front of the Turks in my Wuyuan City, King Chitose of Jin has sent the champion Hou Hussar General Wu Yun to lead 20,000 elites out of the Yin Mountain Pass, imitating Huo Quai's method of attacking the desert for thousands of miles, and directly attacking the Turkic Har and Lin Ya tent in the depths of the desert thousands of miles away. At the moment, it is not known what the outcome will be. It's just that the sudden retreat of the Turkic army to the north is very strange, and it is estimated that it has something to do with it. ”

"Oh? How did you do such a big thing outside? Taifu quickly went to Zhuojun to find out, if it was really done by Ji'er, it would be a miracle! Hehe! Emperor Wen couldn't help laughing when he heard this, and his spirit was much better.

"Your Majesty, there is something I don't know if I should talk about or not?" Gao Xi saw that Emperor Wen was very happy, so he asked. Gao Xi himself can't judge whether this matter is good or bad, and it is not easy to mention it in the court, now while Emperor Wen is happy, you might as well tell Emperor Wen about it, and leave it to Emperor Wen to decide.

"The prime minister has something to say, how did you spit it out? But what does it have to do with my child? Seeing Gao Xi's serious expression, Emperor Wen couldn't help but smile and asked.

"Your Majesty, now the main production area of iron ingots is in Jinyang, for a few months, Jinyang iron ingots have not entered my inner treasury, when people go to Jinyang to ask, it is said that Jinyang iron ingots were all purchased by King Chitose of Jin at a high price. I haven't added a single iron ingot to my inner treasury for several months, which can be supported in normal times, and in case of war, the swords and guns of my Great Sui army and horses cannot be replenished. Your Majesty is up to you to decide. ”

"Taifu, what's going on?" Emperor Wen saw that it was really his son who caused the trouble, so he didn't have any scruples, and turned his head directly to ask Yu Wenshu.

"Your Majesty!" Yuwen Shu saw Emperor Wen asking himself with a cold face, and he was so frightened that he hurriedly got up and replied.

"Your Majesty, King Chitose of Jin once briefly mentioned something in a letter to his ministers, which is thought to be related to the large use of iron ingots. When Chitose cruised to the capital of Laiju in Sai County, he acquired a large local shipyard that had been building two new types of seagoing vessels for months. It is estimated that the amount of iron used in this shipbuilding is huge, so the iron ingots are purchased at a high price in the country. ”

"Building an ocean-going vessel? What are you thinking? Why do you think of shipbuilding? Emperor Wen whispered in confusion, looked at Taifu Yu Wenshu, and saw that he shook his head and didn't know. looked at Gao Xi again, and Gao Xi wanted to speak and stopped.

"Can the prime minister try to tell the reason?"

"Your Majesty, the King of Jin is determined to be in the world, and it is beyond our power to speak. The minister has long heard that there is a peninsula named Goryeo in the south of Liaodong, and there is Dongying Fusang across the sea in Goryeo, these two countries are short of materials, Dengzhou and Donglai have many sea ships full of materials and trade communication between these two countries, and the king of Jin Chitose should be optimistic about this overseas trade, so he built sea ships. Gao Xi tried to answer, but he couldn't say the specifics.

"Hmm!" Emperor Wen nodded after hearing this, and then said to Yuwen Shu: "Yuwen Taifu went to Zhuo County to write a letter, let Ji'er go to the capital as soon as possible, I have something to ask him, there must be no mistake!" ”

"Yes, Your Majesty." Yuwen replied.

"Alright, I'm tired."

"The ministers are leaving."

Gao Xi and Yu Wenshu walked out of the palace and came to a secluded place where no one could see, Gao Xi grabbed Yu Wenshu and asked: "Lord Taifu, it is not easy for Gao to say in front of Your Majesty, you need to explain it clearly to the old man here." said, how many sea ships has King Chitose built now, and what is his plan to do with many sea ships? ”

"Oops! Tall man! Loosen up the old man. Yu Wenshu shouted.

Gao Xi looked left and right, and let go of Yu Wenshu, but looked at him and waited for a reply.

"Master Gao, you know this matter, don't mention it to others." Seeing Gao Xi nodded, Yu Wenshu continued: "Up to now, there are two high-quality seaports in my Donglai County, one is Laizhou Bay in the north; One is Jiaozhou Bay in the south. Both places are built with my Jin army, oh! Naturally, it is also our Great Sui Naval Division, which has more than 20,000 sailors and nearly 100 large warships. There are large shipyards in each of the two places, and 200 large merchant ships for maritime trade have been built. Our lord not only ate all the iron ingots in Jinyang, but also ate the iron ingots produced in Luoyang, Nanyang, Jizhou, Jianghuai and other iron mines, which is not enough. ”

"What is the so-called reason for the Jin King Jianshui Division? You don't need a sailor to rebel? But why? Gao Xi asked further, he had been completely confused by King Jin's operation.

"Master Gao, just say that you and I are frogs in the well! I only saw the sky of this Great Sui, but I didn't know that rich places outside the Great Sui abounded, and you and I didn't know. My lord Jin King Chitose is to build a warship to open up the territory for my emperor and plunder foreign wealth for my use! Of course, our lord's first place of attack was Nan Chen, who wanted to use sea ships to carry tens of thousands of sailors to raid his coastal areas, and even suddenly broke into the big river, directly took the Jiankang City of Chen Shubao, the queen of Nan Chen, and wiped out Nan Chen in one fell swoop. My Lord's ambition is far more than we think! Yuwen Shu was short of breath, and he said so much in one breath, and he couldn't stop wheezing.

"It's these ----" Gao Xi was completely stunned at this time, a large amount of information rushed into his mind, and he couldn't react at all for a while, and he didn't know how to speak.

"That's all for ---, sir. Maybe there will be --- old man Rong will tell him in the future, cough cough! Yu Wenshu said breathlessly.

"I offended the old lady, please go home! Today's events, the old man should be buried in his heart, please ---"

After Yu Wenshu put down his clothes all day, he said goodbye to Gao Xi. In his heart, he was not worried that Gao Xi would spread today's words, because Gao Xi originally did not belong to any faction, and he was at odds with the princelings. If you tell him this, maybe you can pull him into your own camp, but I can't say.

The days of waiting for Bai Ma Yi to return from the battalion and Luo Cheng's army were easy and comfortable, coupled with the lifting of the crisis in Wuyuan City, as well as the smooth progress of Yang Er's layout in various places, these made Yang Er extremely happy, and he looked at the map every day before going to bed and smirked stupidly.

"Plus this land of Yanyun, the land of Da Sui of Nuoda, has been occupied by my brother for nearly half of it, hehe! Thinking that the Nan Chen Ye Mansion will fall, it will be easy to get it for the brother with a little trick, so who will the Great Sui World give up on me? Hehe! After dinner, Yang Er was looking at the map and talking to himself, and Abeyi was fanning him on the side. Hearing him say this, he couldn't help but remind softly: "Childe, don't miss the piece of Tuyuhun in the West Sea." ”

"Oh? Hehe! Oh, yes! Oh, yes! It also belongs to the king, and there is nothing missing. ”

"Hehehehehe!" Suddenly, Wang Dai and Chuchen in the room laughed.

"Alright, alright, don't laugh. Take out the abacus and put it on the table and continue to practice arithmetic. Yang Er saw that both of them were smiling, his face was a little unbearable, and he hurriedly put away the map and beckoned the second daughter to prepare for today's abacus training. Yesterday, the 4 pairs of wooden abacus that were handed over to the carpenter to build were made, and Yu Wenhua Long was originally allowed to learn this thing together, but he was politely rejected by him because of the lack of guard strength, which may also be the reason why Hualong is unwilling to be a "light bulb" in the house! Yang Er didn't force it, so he let Wang Dai and the second daughter of Chuchen learn.

Yang Er's use of the abacus is relatively proficient, which is related to his family environment. Yang Er's mother moved from the north to the state-owned military third-tier enterprise in the Wenchuan Mountains in the early 70s with Yang Er's father. Yang Er learned from his mother when he was still in elementary school, and he was also proficient in using this tool. Although, soon the age of the abacus was replaced by an electronic calculator, but the technology of the plan disk is like Yang Er learned to ride a bicycle since he was a child, and it will not be forgotten and engraved in his mind.

Teaching the current Sui Dynasty people to plan to Pan Yang Er found it not difficult, because it did not require the use of Arabic numerals, which saved a lot of trouble. Just write out the various formulas for the two of them to memorize, and then they can be carried out under their own hands-on demonstration and guidance. In addition, these two girls are talented and intelligent, they can learn as soon as they learn, and they are addicted to general.

"Husband, why didn't you teach me to make this calculation when I was in Laizhou? If I do it then, I can learn how to use all the bookkeepers under my eldest brother, and I won't have to spend a lot of time checking the accounts every day, and I can recruit fewer bookkeepers. Wang Dai was able to get acquainted with Yang Er and his party because he went out of the city to hire a new bookkeeper, and then couldn't help but say a little sadly.

"Hmmm! Didn't you think of this at the time? Besides, at that time, there were many affairs in the hands of my brother, and shipbuilding was far more important than teaching everyone to plan. Yang Er said hesitantly. The heart said, there are too many things you have to learn, I have to be free and in the mood to teach!

Since this abacus has been learned, Wang Dai and the abacus in the hands of Izuchen have never left their bodies, and they will take it out to practice at any time when they have time, and the more they practice, the more they feel the magic of this abacus. For this reason, the dust has delayed a lot of time to concentrate on cultivation.

Time passed like this, and it was nearly half a month in a blink of an eye, and at the moment of Shen Shi in the afternoon of this day, the news of Wu Yunzhao and Luo Cheng's army finally came outside Zhuo County. Wu Yunzhao and Ling Jing camped 20,000 white horse servants and horse supplies outside the city, and led Lai Hu'er and Zuo Tiancheng into the city to see Yang Er. Luo Cheng also instructed Zhang Gongjin and others to bring their own soldiers and horses to teach the military camp to be built, and he also accompanied Wu Yunzhao and his party back to the Beiping Palace.

At this time, the palace was lively, Mrs. Qin, who had not seen her son for more than a month, was waiting for her son's arrival in front of the mansion early, and Luo Yi had to follow behind and chat with Yang Er relaxedly, waiting for the arrival of her generals. The back kitchen of the house is also very busy, just waiting for the victorious generals to return to the dynasty can hold a celebration banquet at any time as soon as they arrive, and the whole house is as festive as a festival.

At the banquet, Wu Yunzhao and Zhang Gongjin, the leading generals from the two friendly armies, respectively reported their results on the spot.

"My lord, my lord. The last general was ordered to go out of Fan Yang Du Yin Mountain to attack 3,000 miles directly to take the Turkic Har and Lin Ya Tent, and reach the Turkic Helan Department at the farthest point, making a gesture to attack the Turkic Tooth Tent, which caused the Turkic troops to invade our Wuyuan in the south and had to rush back to help, thus achieving the strategic purpose of our army's thousands of miles of attack. Along the way, our army swept away more than 50 large and small Turkic tribes, beheaded all the adult men of their tribes, captured more than 120,000 women and children, 150,000 war horses, no less than 200,000 live cattle and sheep, and more than 400,000 good cattle and sheep skins. During the retreat, he killed 20,000 people of the elite Tiger Division Corps of the Turkic reinforcements, beheaded a member of the general of the Turkic Tiger Division, and seized more than 30,000 sharp weapons such as knives, guns, bows and arrows. The casualties of our sergeants were very small and negligible, and the tens of thousands of war horses that accompanied the army were also quite a few. Wu Yunzhao reported the results of the battle loudly, and when he reported, it had already caused shock and discussion among the civil and military officials at all levels in the hall who went to Yanzhuo County.

Yang Er didn't know what to do, but the old prince Luo Yi on the side had already stared at him after listening to the numbers. He didn't expect that the elite under the command of the King of Jin would have such a big gain from this raid on the tribes in the Turkic Desert. I didn't expect that the alien materials in the northern steppes were so abundant. Not to mention cattle and sheep, it is these 150,000 war horses that make people extremely red-eyed.

Seeing that Luo Yi was out of shape, the lady Qin Shi who was sitting next to him hurriedly took her hand and quietly tugged Luo Yi's shirt a few times, which made Luo Yi recover from the shock and return to normal.

"Yu Wangye, Yu Chitose. The last general, Zhang Gongjin, was ordered to lead 10,000 Yan troops to garrison the Ural Pass in Yinshan to ensure the retreat of General Wu Yunzhao's army to return safely. In this campaign, more than 6,000 Turkic Eagle Divisions were killed, and more than 3,000 soldiers under Yin Kaishan of Li Yuan's army were killed. Receiving several battles of the enemy, Luo Cheng, the son of Shaobao, came to the battle to kill a total of 6 Turkic and Tang army generals, and the first 6 enemy generals were stored in the army for inspection. Our soldiers also suffered more than 4,000 battle losses, including 4 generals who were slightly wounded, and assisted Wu Yunzhao's troops in escorting the captured personnel and materials back throughout the process. ”

"Good!" As soon as Zhang Gongjin's words fell, Luo Yi, the king of Beiping, applauded. Seeing his prince shouting, Zhang Gongjin breathed a sigh of relief, bowed, and sat down again.

"Father, the boy is killing this battle with great pleasure! The first battle beheaded the two deputy generals of the Tang Army Yin Kaishan, one was his nephew Yin Kedao, and the other was the former Green Forest bandit Sheng Yanshi who newly joined the Tang Army; In the second battle, he killed 4 famous generals of the Turkic Eagle Division, and he was so killed that he had no generals there, and he hung up the war-free card, hehe! It's so exciting! Luo Cheng couldn't hold back anymore at the moment, got up and showed off to his parents and Yang Er with a smile.

This time, all the civil and military forces, including Yang Er, Wu Yunzhao, etc., applauded loudly. Luo Yi and his wife were also full of smiles on their faces, and they couldn't stop nodding.
