Geng Yanxi finally appeared again.

Since Zhao Huan bowed and stepped down, the Geng family father and son have also been overshadowed and bid farewell to the political arena together.

The change in Jingkang brought irreparable wounds to the Geng family.

But this is only because they don't know what kind of shame the original Jingkang in history brought to the Central Plains and Zhao Song!

On the contrary, the changes in history also allowed Geng Nanzhong to live a few more years.

Compared with history, Geng Nanzhong lived for five more years, and on the eve of Zhao Huan's inauguration, he became ill!

Then Geng Yanxi smoothly inherited his father's mantle and became a caring person by Zhao Huan's side.

Secretary of the State of Wu!

This is a position that may not seem obvious, but it is actually extremely important.

Because the current Wu Guodu is still a grass platform team, and the political structure has not been completely built, the position of the secretary is like a bachelor of Hanlin + a governor of political affairs. The reason why he participated in political affairs was because Wu Guoxing was still the old political system of Zhao and Song.

Geng Yanxi is almost the second most important minister of Wu State, and he personally went to Hongji Port to communicate with Xu Huiyan, which shows that Wu State attaches great importance to mercenaries.

In the afternoon of that day, in the conference hall, Xu Huiyan convened the generals to discuss the next various matters.

At this moment, the people who listened to the order were all local officials from Jiaozhou, Lingnan and a few examples of native people erected by the Song court, and there were not many native soldiers under these people, and their status was not very valuable. They originally thought that they would live a life in obscurity, although they preserved the family and mixed up in the new dynasty, compared to those powerful people of the Li Dynasty who were wiped out, they couldn't be better. But it's hard to say in my heart that there are no regrets!

It was Zhao Song's overseas feudal strategy that gave them a new way out.

Although his exploits in the feudal kingdom are not recorded in his resume, it is an experience. More importantly, they can use this opportunity to prove their fierce loyalty to the Great Song.

They are not afraid of the difficulties of war, and it is better in the rainy season.

Because, with little difficulty, how could the court see their loyalty?

Although they also don't know if this road can be passed, or how many people can get through. But it's always a way.

The future is bright, and there is a promising future!

Hearing Xu Huiyan talk about mercenaries and war, before those local officials could express their positions, a few typical people had already stood up first. I can't wait to start fighting right away and make more contributions.

"Everyone, everyone, don't be impatient! Rest easy! Xu Huiyan first looked at the several models in the hall with a long-awaited and excited look, and did not prohibit their discussions. It wasn't until those local officials in Lingnan Jiaozhou were also sworn by the model to express their determination one by one that they opened their mouths.

As Xu Huiyan raised his hand slightly, the chamber gradually quieted down.

This is the reputation he has earned from sitting in Lingnan Jiaozhou for many years.

Xu Huiyan is an orthodox person, with a rigorous personality, and is naturally majestic, but he can treat his soldiers equally, and he can give grace and authority, and he can reduce the local officials and soldiers who are rude and disobedient to discipline.

It turns out that Zhao Gou's vision is good.

Although the Lingnan native soldiers were rough and narrow-minded, they were quite obedient under Xu Huiyan's account.

"Ladies and gentlemen, everyone has seen the situation in the south, whether it is Champa or Bagan, they have all lost their hearts. However, Bagan has a vast area, and there are many tribes in the west of King Wu's territory, and there will be no less meritorious deeds under King Wu, but it is a trivial job there. ”

"And the city is rich, it has been established for hundreds of years, and there are many rules and regulations for the upper and lower armies. Fighting elsewhere can make great achievements, but the danger is not small. ”

To this day, Xu Huiyan still does not reveal a trace of rumors about the use of troops in the city. Among the people here today, no one would have thought that the Song army would also send troops to occupy the city.

"Raising soldiers for a thousand days, using soldiers for a while, my generation of soldiers should serve the country, how can there be a reason to be afraid of fighting?" Seeing that Xu Huiyan stopped talking, a model got up and saluted Xu Huiyan, and then said.

asked Xu Huiyan to listen to the great music.

That's a great thing. You can choose the two places by yourself, and Ben Shuai only tells you that everything is still the same old rules. The cottage tribes you conquered one by one, as well as the natives who dared to resist, you take thirty percent of the goods, and you choose eleven people. ”

"King Wu and King Xu have already gained a firm foothold in the local area, and the opportunity to be mercenaries is not long away. The court has already spoken, and after this fight, your intentions will not be in vain. ”

"And a few of you, just now your voice is loud, wait until you get to the south, don't let the thunder be loud and the rain will be small, and you will embarrass me. When the time comes, you will become a bad seed, but Ben Shuai will not spare you. ”

Xu Huiyan said with a smile to several models, and then said with some emotion: "Keep the clouds open and see the moon." After all thirty-six bows, the last trembling was missing. Wouldn't it be a pity if I didn't see it? ”

"You are all people with families, it has not been easy in the past few years, after this battle, this commander will ask for credit for you!"

Tears were about to fall from the eyes of several exemplars, and their hearts were sour when they said this.

The faces of several people named by Xu Huiyan were flushed, their blood swelled, and under the gaze of a cadre of local officials, they said loudly: "Dare to ask the handsome to rest assured!" The little people dare not do their best! ”

"Please rest assured, your subordinates will fight hard to kill the enemy!"

Everyone in the chamber stood up and shouted.

"Haha! Good! Good! With this kind of blood, he deserves to be a good son under my account! Xu Huiyan nodded with satisfaction after hearing this.

At the same time, on the wharf of Hongji Port, on a sea boat coming from the north, several bald monks disembarked in peace.

The Tongxin monk on the shore took the novice to wait on the dock early.

The Buddhism in Jiaozhou is different from the Buddhism in the Three Buddhas, Bagan and other places, and it is pure Han Buddhism.

And the atmosphere of the Buddha worship there is very strong.

Although it cannot be said to be a Buddhist country, it can welcome the three Tibetan canons, imitate the Song system, try the people to become monks, and set up an ordination field to teach the precepts, Li Shengzong (reigned 1054~1072), the third master of the Li Dynasty, and was even known as the Ashoka of India by the local Buddhism. The fourth lord Li Renzong was a king who believed in Buddhism and vigorously supported Buddhism. In the 120-year history of the Li Dynasty, many famous temples such as Xingtianyu Temple, Wufeng Xinglou, Shengyan Temple, Tianwang Temple, Chongdu Baotian Temple, Yonglong Shengfu Temple, and Zhenjiao Temple were built successively.

When the Song army swept Jiaozhou, many Buddhist monks were also moved to the Central Plains. In turn, Zhao Song chose monks from Daxiangguo Temple, White Horse Temple and many temples in Lingnan to enrich Jiaozhou.

Tongxin monk came to Jiaozhou like this.

It was only with the development of the Hongji coal mine and the port that a new Buddhist temple was built in this place, and then the monk Lu Division of Jiaozhou selected Tongxin to be the abbot.

But no one expected that the development of Hongji Port would be so rapid, with the increase of the local population, with the prosperity of commerce and the market, the monk Tongxin has found that there is not enough manpower.

Then they sent a report asking for more manpower from above, or allowing them to worship the novice monks on their own.

The latter is naturally not allowed, and the large and small temples in Jiaozhou are now not allowed to be free, and no one is allowed to receive the novice monks, and it is naturally impossible for Tongxin monks to make an exception here.

The head immediately transferred a few monks from the Xinzang Temple in Guangzhou. The new Tibetan temple is the hometown of the Tongxin monks.

The monk who led the team to send people off was a concentric senior brother and brother.

After the monk Tongxin received the palindrome from the monk Lu Division, he looked forward to the Tongzhen group day and night. Since a few days ago, he estimated that the time was almost up, so he took people to the dock to wait every morning.
