There are only 100 people under the Red Eleven Niang, she insists on asking all the old and young to stay, if there is no one less in the army, either everyone will go together or stay together, Shen Leng values her talents, so she stayed, but she has not been included in the official queue of the sailor for the time being, after all, although these pirates have good personal martial arts, but the discipline and training are too far behind.

Shen Leng asked Dewey to temporarily take them to train, and the sailor team was also making final preparations to go to the northern frontier, if the large amount of materials transported from the country of Miao was not transported over, no matter how good the food protection was, it would inevitably sprout or become moldy.

The emperor summoned Shen Leng in the palace, which was also the last time Shen Leng met before his departure in Eastern Xinjiang.

"You don't have to worry too much about Meng Changan's affairs."

The emperor glanced at Shen Leng: "I transferred Yan Kaisong back, you should know my intentions." ”

Shen Leng naturally knew.

Yan Kaisong has worked hard for many years to guard Baishan Pass, and he never said that he was tired, and he was transferred back to rest for a while in Eastern Xinjiang, mainly because the emperor wanted to beat Pei Tingshan, and the situation in Eastern Xinjiang was said to be a play and a play, and it was a real beating to say that it was a beating.

The emperor never doubted Pei Tingshan's loyalty, but he was dissatisfied with Pei Tingshan's attitude, which were two different things.

Shen Leng lowered his head: "The minister understands." ”

The emperor snorted: "I know that you have a flexible brain, and you can naturally understand my painstaking efforts, but there is another layer of meaning, I have never told others, and after telling you today, you can't mention it to others at will...... Yan Kaisong is the news box I put in Dongjiang. ”

Shen Leng was shocked.

At the beginning, Pei Tingshan arranged Yan Kaisong to Baishan Pass, and the news box that His Majesty put on his side lost its meaning, so the emperor took this opportunity to transfer Yan Kaisong back and promoted him, even Pei Tingshan felt that Yan Kaisong had been wronged, and Yan Kaisong would be more stable by Pei Tingshan's side in the future.

Imperial Mind.

There is no doubt about it, but what should be done must be done, and this is the emperor.

"Meng Changan will have to return to Northern Xinjiang sooner or later, how can I not have such a brave general in the battle against Northern Xinjiang."

The emperor took a sip of tea: "Pressing him at Baishan Pass is considered a Qu Cai, in addition to what I just said, as for another layer of intention, can you think of it?" ”

"It's because of Wu Xinyu."

Shen Leng replied: "Your Majesty wants General Wu Xinyu to take over as the general of Northern Xinjiang, right?" The temporary transfer of Meng Changan from Northern Xinjiang is for the sake of Anwu Xinyu's heart, and he will transfer Meng Changan back before the battle of Northern Xinjiang begins, Meng Changan has been away from Northern Xinjiang for several years, of course, it is impossible to take over as the general of Northern Xinjiang, that is unreasonable, so in this way, Wu Xinyu can understand His Majesty's painstaking efforts and lead troops in Northern Xinjiang in a down-to-earth manner. ”

The emperor snorted: "I didn't misunderstand you, Shen Xiaosong taught it well." ”

Shen Leng didn't say anything more, but felt that it was Meng Changan who was wronged.

"What Meng Changan lacks is not the overall situation, his overall view is not inferior to Wu Xinyu, of course, it is not a qualification, I never look at these things, as long as people make the best use of their talents...... Shen Leng, I know that you feel that Meng Changan has been wronged, if I tell you that I plan to make him a general in Eastern Xinjiang in the future, do you still feel wronged? ”

The emperor shouldn't have said these words, and he shouldn't have said them to anyone, but he said them so naturally to Shen Liang.

Shen Leng raised his head fiercely, his eyes were happy.

"I can't let him be by Pei Tingshan's side for a few years, if he looks up and doesn't look down every day in Chaoyang City and Pei Tingshan, there will always be some problems, Pei Tingshan is domineering, Meng Changan is arrogant, it's strange if nothing happens, but since I plan to let him come to Dongjiang in the future, he must be familiar with it in advance, he is familiar with it, and the people here are familiar with him, so Baishan Pass is the best choice, and he can go straight to the northwest of Baishan Pass to the north, even if Pei Tingshan puts pressure on him, he can't go anywhere."

"After a few years in Eastern Xinjiang, and then go to Northern Xinjiang to go on an expedition with me, there is naturally no need to worry about accumulating credit with his ability, after the battle of Northern Xinjiang, Pei Tingshan will be almost seventy years old......

The emperor glanced at Shen Leng: "Are you relieved?" ”

Shen Leng smiled, like a child.

The emperor shook his head helplessly, and said in his heart that he was like coaxing a child, and he still had to worry about the emotions of this little guy.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"You're happier than I rewarded you."

Shen Leng snorted: "Mr. Shen said that the greatest grace to save lives is one of them, and Meng Changan is the same brother and sister. ”

The emperor felt relieved, thinking that this might be Shen Leng's luck, the hard days of those years were not all bitter, if he grew up in the palace, although the brocade clothes and jade food were gone, but the emperor himself did not have much time to teach him, counting on those subordinates who were only willing to accompany him, Concubine Zhen was good but inevitably doted, how could he cultivate such a tenacious and courageous character as Shen Leng is now.

Back then, it was because I was away from the court since I was a child that I was different from others.

"You go back."

The emperor got up and returned to the desk to continue to review the recital: "There will be no major war for you to be involved in for the time being in the past few years, there is Zhuang Yong in the southern Xinjiang in my heart, and it is only a matter of time before the guards and soldiers are destroyed, you are familiar with the waterway, the process is familiar, and in a few years, I will hand over my back to you." ”

Shen Leng got up and bowed: "Minister, thank Your Majesty for your trust." ”

"After returning from the northern Xinjiang, you let Wang Gendong lead the troops south, and I will give you half a year's leave."

The emperor didn't look up, but how could the doting at the corners of his mouth be worse than Concubine Zhen.

"Wang Gendong will go back to the country to transport grain and then return, it will take half a year at the earliest, you calculate the days, and when Wang Gendong returns with the sailors, you can go to Jiangnan Province to meet...... Not long after I got married, I let you go to the south, and I'm sorry for Cha'er, and I took half a year off to accompany her in Chang'an...... Strive to give me a ...... as soon as possible."

The phrase "giving birth to a grandson" almost blurted out.

The emperor himself was stunned.

"Give birth to a big fat boy, if I like it, I will find someone to teach him."

Shen Leng smirked.

Just cares about being happy, where can I reflect the smell of family affection in the emperor's tone just now.

Northern.

The general Tie Liuli looked worried, and looked at Wu Xinyu: "Who would have thought that such a thing would happen before the battle, Samburu took the throne and immediately adjusted his attitude towards us, the black warriors have not been harassed for more than a month, even if we provoked them in the past, they would not be able to come out." ”

Wu Xinyu sighed, and naturally he was worried in his heart.

His Majesty's strategy for the northern frontier is no problem, far-sighted, but there is a problem on the Heiwu side, which is impossible for anyone to control, the Heiwu Khan Emperor transposed, Sambrüqi is far superior to his brother, if the Heiwu is bent on preparing for war after that, the two countries will fight each other a few years later, and the outcome is really uncertain.

"Your Majesty has sent someone to deliver the will."

Tie Liuli said: "The strategy of the black martial arts is going to change, from now on, you arrange more people to infiltrate the black martial arts, spare no expense, and see if you can buy more of the leaders of the small tribes, Your Majesty said that attacking the black martial arts, attacking the heart is the first, if nothing else, Samburu will also improve the relationship with these small tribes, but the black warriors are naturally arrogant, and they can't change anything for a while." ”

Wu Xinyu said: "The subordinates are already working on it, arranging people to meet those tribal leaders who are close to the previous generation of the Black Wu Khan Emperor, these people are different from those tribal leaders who have been suppressed for many years, the latter thinks that the replacement of the Khan Emperor will usher in a good one, so it is not easy to buy, but those who were close to the original go are worried about being suppressed by the new Khan Emperor, and it is easier to start." ”

Tie Liuli snorted: "I heard that Samburu also has a sister, with a hard personality, she also led troops in the early years, and she is also known as a little prestige in the Black Army, and her relationship with Samburu is not very good, you can try to see if you can make some articles out of it." ”

Wu Xinyu nodded, and after being silent for a while, he looked at Tie Liuli: "General, these subordinates have already arranged to do these things, and what the subordinates want to talk about today is Meng Changan." ”

"Huh?"

Tie Liuli looked at Wu Xinyu: "What do you want to say?" ”

"It's not fair to Meng Changan."

Wu Xinyu took a deep breath: "The subordinates know His Majesty's intentions, and they also know the general's intentions, but ......"

Tie Liuli waved his hand: "You are all my righteous sons, I naturally will not have distant relatives, Your Majesty has another deep meaning in transferring Meng Changan to Baishan Pass." ”

Tie Liuli said: "You just have to prepare for a battle against the Black Martial Arts in a few years, and you don't have to worry about anything else, and you don't have to think about it." ”

He stood up: "You should know very well that this battle is fought, how strong Daning's National Games will be in the next few hundred years, as for the matter of dividing the various departments of the black army, I am also contacting some of them, you and I are doing our best, don't let down Your Majesty." ”

After finishing speaking, he got up and left, Wu Xinyu was sent out of the camp, the cold wind was cold, but there was a warmth in his heart.

The next days were a little ordinary, and in October, the sailors sent a large number of supplies, these things are very important for northern Xinjiang, and at this time, His Majesty has also returned to Chang'an City from Eastern Xinjiang, and the general of Eastern Xinjiang is still the general of Eastern Xinjiang, but everyone can see that after His Majesty left Eastern Xinjiang, Pei Tingshan seems to have changed a little, and the most important thing is that he is more old-fashioned.

At the end of October, Chang'an City was already very cold, and the emperor moved back to Dongnuan Pavilion from Xianmaozhai.

Dai Fangzhou carefully added some charcoal to the stove in the house, so as not to let a trace of carbon ash fly, at this time of year, the climate is dry, His Majesty sometimes coughs, what he, the chief attendant, can do is to let His Majesty's body not have any accidents.

After adding charcoal, he gently stepped aside and stood still, not daring to make too much noise, lest he disturb His Majesty's train of thought.

The emperor put down the fold in his hand and looked out the window: "Calculating the days, the sailor is about to come back from the northern Xinjiang, I just received the good news sent back by Zhuang Yong yesterday, he has besieged the army to seek the establishment of the national capital, if nothing else, there will be better news sent next month, and the southern Xinjiang is too peaceful and stable, and my heart will be more steady." ”

Dai Fangzhou said with a smile: "General Zhuang is really amazing. ”

"The man I brought out."

The emperor smiled proudly, thinking that if the stupid boy had no accident, he would be able to spend the New Year in Chang'an City.

At this moment, Wei Lan, the commander of the guards, walked in quickly from outside and lowered his head: "Your Majesty, there is an urgent military situation from the northern Xinjiang. ”

The emperor was stunned, the black warriors had changed their attitude, there had been no war in northern Xinjiang for a while, why was there an emergency military situation?

"What's the matter?"

He stretched out his hand to take the military report, and stood up violently after only a glance, his face was white and terrifying.

After a while, the emperor coughed violently, and actually coughed up a few mouthfuls of blood.

Tie Liuli, the general of Northern Xinjiang, died in ambush.
