Qibi Ge was leading Qibi He Li to familiarize himself with the Hunter City, and when he saw Ashina Ni coming over, he greeted him with a smile, both of them were acquaintances, and they had met the Western Turks and the White Mountain Alliance several times during negotiations; Ashina Ni had a strange feeling, and Qi Bige seemed to have forgotten his failures and lived happily, speaking in a frank and natural tone. Ashina Ni followed behind the Kham, and carefully looked at the goods of the Kham, all of which belonged to the Turpan Commercial Bank, which gave up the trade with the Greedy Khan Mountain and gave all of them to the scholars of the Khige and Gaochang.

Qi Bi He Li is the eldest son of Qi Ge, he looks as tall as Qi Bi Ge, and muttered in his mouth, it turns out that Qi Bi Ge shouted Qi Qi He Li to go to Gaochang is also going to school, but it is not a literacy class, but Yang Chong's private Nanping School. He Li is very reluctant, he is a hero who dances with knives and guns, what is he doing to learn the scriptures of the Han people.

Surprisingly, instead of teaching his son, he pointed to the Hunter City and said, "Did you see that? In this city, in the future, they will be inferior people, and they will live in tiled houses, so as long as they work and serve, they don't have to worry about food and clothing. Your grandfather established the White Mountain Alliance, just to want the clansmen to live such a good life one day, the alliance has collapsed, what we have to do is to try our best for the sake of the clansmen; You learn from the Han people, and you can let the people live in this kind of castle when you go back. ”

Qi Bi He Li said unconvinced: "I'm still young, if you have this idea, why don't you go back to Greedy Sweat Mountain." ”

Qi Ge smiled and motioned to the servant to bring a set of armor and said, "I promised Yang Chong that in the future, if he does not return to the Central Plains as a county guard, I will go back with him and settle in those places in Chang'an." This is the armor that Yang Chong gave me, all made of iron, if you go to school, this set of armor is yours; When you graduate in three years, I'll ask the blacksmith to help you make another good knife. ”

This is a set of heavy armor with fish scales, and the rope that braids the armor pieces is hidden under the armor plates, which minimizes the possibility of being cut by sharp objects. The armor can be telescopic and overlapping, the thickness of the overall protection can be adjusted at will with the bending, the steel armor is braided on the leather with ropes, and the leather is stably integrated, and the leather becomes the last protective barrier, and under the blow of the blunt instrument from the front outside, the protection of the plate armor is very high.

He Li is a twelve-year-old child, and he can't help but reach out and touch it, it feels very comfortable, this set of armor is even more beautiful than the iron armor of his grandfather Qibi Gelen; He Li was unwilling to give up in his heart, if he went back, his father would definitely call the second or third child to come over, and this armor would not be his own. He Li gritted his teeth and said, "When I go to school, I want an iron rod full of iron." ”

Qi Moge smiled: "No problem, I'll let them help you build it this year." ”

Ashina Ni had been listening to the side, and only then did he interject and ask, "Qi Bige, I'm curious, what changed you?" ”

Qi Bige's smile froze, and his expression became serious, "When I was first brought to Nanping, I was in pain, and I knew that the future of the Qi Bi clan and the White Mountain Alliance was ruined in my own hands. At this time, Gao Bei came to see me every day, drank and chatted with me, and one day he suddenly asked me, what would happen if we captured Gaochang? I thought about this sentence for a few days, and the best result was to loot for three days. ”

Including Qi Bi He Li, who was still a child, everyone lost their smiles, Qi Bi Ge was not wrong at all, it was a good thing if the Tiele people did not slaughter the city after breaking the city, and looting for three days was the minimum behavior, otherwise even Qi Bi Gelen could not suppress the irritable emotions of his subordinates. Chelange pointed to the busy Tiele people and said, "If this is the result of failure, it may not be a bad thing. ”

Ashina could clearly see the approval flashing on Balshan Chong's face, and asked Qi Ge a little gloomily: "You believed Yang Chong's promise at that time?" ”

"Of course not." Qi Bige's expression began to relax and said: "I scoffed at Yang Chong's depiction, but I have decided to stay in Gaochang, so I will follow Gaobei to go around. The mountains of weapons and the hundreds of blacksmithing stoves did not frighten me, but what made me determined to look at the hospital in Yang Chong's army; Ashina, how many of us were seriously wounded after a battle, and how many of them survived and were not crippled? ”

Ashina Ni said without hesitation: "If the battle is won, the number of seriously injured will be about the same as death; In the event of defeat, the number of seriously wounded can be as high as three to five times the number of casualties. In general, half of the seriously injured survive, and at most 10% of the seriously injured are not disabled. ”

After the battle, a considerable number of people were not directly killed by the enemy, but were injured and could not stop bleeding or were poisoned by iron tools, and could not be effectively treated and died. Qi Moge hesitated for a moment and said: "The mortality rate of the seriously wounded in the Gaochang army is less than 10%, and unless it is a broken arm or leg, it is rarely crippled. Therefore, fighting with the Gaochang army is equivalent to training with them, as long as they are not defeated once, the more battles are fought, the more veterans of the Gaochang army will be, and the Baishan Alliance will still lose in the end. ”

Ashina Ni was moved, Qi Bige was not wrong, if the fight continues, with the prolongation of the war, Baishan Tiele will have fewer and fewer veterans, and there will be more and more elites in the Gaochang army, and the outcome will not change much. Ashina Ni looked at Wang Jun stunned, Wang Jun smiled and said: "Special service, the hospital is a military powerhouse, unless you have your own people like Qi Bige, you can go in." ”

Ashina Ni suddenly lost interest in watching, as a special agent, Ashina Ni knew that while Tong Ye Hu sent himself to negotiate, he was also trying to mobilize people, and it was likely that Gao Chang would be taught a lesson this fall. If Gaochang's army was really as Qi Moge said, this kind of small-scale war would be purely to sharpen Yang Chong's army, and completely lose the meaning of World War I deterrence.

On the way back to Nanping City, Ashina Ni had already made up his mind and sent someone back to escort the letter to Tongye, and he stayed in Gaochang to expand the intelligence network in the name of doing business and find out the secrets of Yang Chongjun. When Ashina Niyu and Wang Jun arrived at the governor's mansion, Yang Chongzheng was meeting the guests, Fang Xuanling and Kan Zhong accompanied An Ju Khan from Gaochang City, and the An family was ready to move the whole family away and sell all the properties in Gaochang County.

The two sat in the living room and waited, Wang Jun was stunned and didn't care about Anjia, due to the devouring of the Duhu valve in the grape and wine industry, the business of the three largest merchants in Gaochang County, the Koji family, the bald family, and the An family, all plummeted. As the original royal family, the koji family was afraid of things and didn't dare to talk much; The bald family and Yang Chong were tied together, and after the Fenghuanggou iron mine was taken back, the three shareholders were the Turpan Commercial Bank, the bald family, and the Shanxi family; Only An Jia, because he participated in several activities against Yang Chong, could not wait for Yang Chong's compensation, and was currently unstoppable, the most uncomfortable, An Ju Khan's decision was a normal reaction, and it was better to stop than to lose money.

Wang Jun was stunned that Fang Xuanling was concerned, whether it was Yang Chong's cronies or the officials of Gaochang County, they were all a little surprised by how much Yang Chong trusted Fang Xuanling. Yang Chong stayed in Nanping City for a long time, coordinating the situation of the newly built counties and towns and Tuntian in various places, and the county guard of Gaochang City was almost completely handed over to Fang Xuanling; It should be said that Fang Xuanling did a good job, but Wang Junjun has been speculating why Yang Chong believed in Fang Xuanling's loyalty and ability as soon as he saw Fang Xuanling.

Pei Ju's letter was also full of suspicions, and he guessed two possibilities, one is that Yang Chong and Fang Xuanling may have known each other, and the so-called seeking talents is just a means for Yang Chong to hide people's ears; Another possibility is that Fang Xuanling is the result of the exchange of interests between the Hebei Shi clan and Yang Chong, and Yang Chong has to do this. However, Wang Jun was stunned and didn't think it was like it, Du Yan and Chen Kui both knew that Fang Xuanling was introduced to Yang Chong by Fang Yiwu, and Gaochang County couldn't see the shadow of Hebei people.
