Chapter 1076: Mercenaries
Look at it, I know that this thing is thinking about becoming an immortal, right? Xu Zizhen was disdainful again, then glared at him and said angrily: "What nonsense? Since the heavens have entrusted you with a great responsibility, so that you can live and govern the Great Song Dynasty, how can you let you return to heaven early? Passing the age of Jiazi means that you will pass another Jiazi, not that you will die at the age of sixty. ”
In fact, Xu Zizhen doesn't know how many years Zhao Gou can live, but in his memory, he seems to be one of the long-lived emperors in history, saying that he is also nonsense after sixty years, anyway, no one knows what will happen after sixty years, and if Zhao Gou hangs up after sixty years, can he still go to him? Besides, even if his soul can float to find him, he may not be able to find him, go to Western Xia? Tibetan? Or Dali? Even if it's Xiliao, it's very likely.
"Uh......" Zhao Gou was stunned again, and he didn't know whether he was happy that he could live for a few more decades, or disappointed that he couldn't enter the immortal realm as soon as possible.
"Okay, I've said everything I need to say, and now it's time to solve the mess in Ying Tianfu first." Xu Zizhen looked at the west and said lightly, "When I finish cleaning up, I should also go and meet with Wushu." ”
Zhao Gou came back to his senses, yes, it will take sixty years to become an immortal or something, and now the top priority is to return to the imperial city, and he can't let the rebels occupy his palace?
"Zizhen, do you have a good plan? I summoned Han Shizhong to help you? Zhao Gou looked at Xu Zizhen with a smile, and suddenly found that he didn't know when he started, and he was used to relying on Xu Zizhen if there was any trouble, originally he would definitely not be willing to do this, but now it is different, Xu Zizhen is an immortal, even if he is not for the time being, he will always become an immortal in the future, and he is also the leader of his own entry into the fairy world, and there is nothing wrong with relying on him.
Xu Zizhen shook his head: "Fifth Brother Han, I have other uses, don't bother him, who is still in Ying Tianfu now?" Tell me something I know. ”
Zhao thought for a moment and replied, "Uncle Zhang and your second brother." ”
The second brother of Xu Zizhen he said is Liu Fengsui, since Xu Zizhen left Yingtianfu, Zhao Gou did not embarrass him, after all, this is a good son with ambition and skills, although he is Xu Zizhen's righteous brother, but a heart for the country is true, so Zhao Gou let him follow Zhang Shuye and become a commander of the horse army in the army.
"Okay, that's enough." Xu Zizhen patted Zhao Gou's shoulder again, "I'll go first, go back and pack up Miao Fu, the seventh master is here to take care of his body first, and wait for my good news." ”
"Zizhen!" Zhao Gou suddenly stopped him and said, "Let's transfer Han Shizhong to go, I'm afraid that Uncle Zhang's men and horses will not be enough." ”
Xu Zizhen waved his hand: "It's okay, I have someone." ”
Zhao Gou hesitated for a moment, and finally asked what he wanted to ask: "But your Divine Machine Battalion?" ”
Xu Zizhen smiled, he knew that Zhao Gou would ask this sooner or later, with the fierce combat power of the Shenji Battalion, there was no country that would not be worried or afraid, and Zhao Gou could delay until now to ask because the friendship between them was here.
He turned to look at Zhao Gou, was silent for a moment, and said, "Seventh Master, if you want to compile the Divine Machine, then I advise you to give up, you can't accept it." ”
Zhao Gou was also silent, of course he knew that it was difficult to co-opt, but if he let such a strong team of people and horses go and couldn't control it, his heart was also very unsteady, although the relationship between him and Xu Zizhen was on the table, but there was always a chance of everything, maybe one day something would happen to him, with the speed of the old horse thieves in the Shenji Camp coming and going like the wind, it would give him a headache.
Xu Zizhen paused and then said: "Seventh Master, by now, I think you should have known some of the inside story of the Shenji Camp with your intelligence network, you know, in fact, although the Shenji Camp was established by me, it is not me who is really in charge, it is my eldest brother Bu Fen, if I guess correctly, who is Brother Bu, presumably you already know it." ”
Zhao Gou nodded silently, of course he knew that Bu Fen was the son of Fang La, one of the former four-way anti-kings, and he also knew that a group of main people in the Shenji Camp were all horse thieves on the original Northwest Road, but the real situation was that some of them were the elites of the original Fang La's subordinates who fled from Zhejiang to the Northwest with Bu Fen in the past, otherwise how could the Shenji Battalion, a man and horse established by Xu Zizhen casually, make the world frightened in a short period of time?
Not only was the Jin Kingdom defeated, but even Daxia and Tubo had seen his strength, of course, Tubo, who was only a rebel army and not a man from the king of Tubo, and now with the Liao King Yelu Dashi rampaging in the Western Regions, I heard that the Shenji Battalion was invincible everywhere it went, whether it was the Uighurs or the Black Khan, they all suffered hardships.
But the more such a team, the more Zhao Gou wants to get it into his hands, even if he can't get it, he doesn't want to fall into the hands of others, so he is afraid that he will not be able to sleep well, this has nothing to do with Xu Zizhen's friendship, I am afraid that anyone will think so.
Of course, Xu Zizhen could understand, shook his head and said: "Don't worry, Seventh Master, I also planned to explain this matter to you when I came back this time, let me tell you first, it is impossible to co-opt, Seventh Master, you don't have to think about it." ”
Zhao Gou frowned slightly, not dissatisfied with Xu Zizhen, but subconsciously trying to find a way to solve this uncontrollable problem.
Xu Zizhen waved his hand and said: "Don't worry, listen to me, although I built the Shenji Battalion, but now I don't interfere at all, it's all Brother Bu who is in charge, so it's useless for you to talk to me, Seventh Master, but I'll give you a thorough explanation, the Shenji Camp will not be absorbed by you, and it is also impossible for anyone to be co-opted, whether it is Li Renxiao or Yelu Dashi." ”
Zhao Gou couldn't help but ask, "Could it be that you are going to disband the Divine Machine Battalion?" ”
It's not impossible to think about it, according to Xu Zizhen, now that Song and Jin have signed an alliance agreement, it can be regarded as peace, and after the Wushu is solved, the Great Song Dynasty will return to peace, and the Shenji Battalion will naturally be disbanded if there is no war, otherwise more than 2,000 people say that it is a lot less, and eating and drinking every day is also a huge expense, and Xu Zizhen cannot just raise it like this.
Xu Zizhen smiled: "I thought, but there are so many people, what should you do if you disband them?" These bunches are used to the days of boiling blood, let them put down their sabers and go back to their hometowns to farm? Those horse thieves can't even find their home anywhere, how can they be disbanded? In the end, they have nowhere to go, don't they still stay at my house? So how many people do I have to support? ”
That's right, Zhao Gou nodded and looked at him again.
Xu Zizhen spread his hands and said: "So I discussed this matter with Brother Bu, and finally came to a conclusion, that is, they will not be dissolved, but they will not be co-opted, they do not belong to any country, and they will exist as an independent establishment from now on, and whoever gives money will help whoever fights, you have to ask me what is this?" I call it a mercenary. ”
