Chapter 150: Remedy

After four days in the camp by the Dihe River, on a beautiful moonlit night, Ye Tao's tent was always lit with a small light, even in the middle of the night. Because Ye Tao had too many opportunities, because he thought of some strange ideas, some strange thoughts, and sometimes recalled some key knowledge and skills that had been lurking in the depths of his brain, he got up excitedly to find a pen and paper to record them. There was always a sizable table in his tent, which was always piled up with papers, drawings, and sketches, as long as it wasn't an emergency. There were always two sober guards standing at the door of his tent, because Ye Tao always put those classified documents on the table very carelessly, because he often needed to associate things that seemed completely unrelated to others, and always needed to cross-reference a lot of materials as a basis for making decisions. And Ye Tao's casualness, since he was gradually understood by the people around him, until now, he has been indulged and even respected. When Ye Tao first began to need the guards by his side, Sophie Marceau, who had taken care of Ye Tao's life for the longest time, told the guards that the various contents recorded by Ye Tao when he got up in the middle of the night proved to be very important and very interesting.

When Ye Tao was awakened by the sound of horses' hooves, rolled down from the not-so-solid folding bed on the ground covered with a layer of felt, and stood up with a grunt, Wu Ping'an, who had been guarding the door with a sword, lifted the curtain, walked in, and asked, "My lord, do you need something?" ”

"Outside...... What's going on? Ye Tao touched his head, although he was still a little groggy, he could still understand the movement of the marching army outside.

"Dai Dujun gave the order for the whole army to attack, and was rushing to cross the Di River at night. In about a day to a day and a half, a full-scale attack will be launched against the combined forces of the northern tribes. The Dai Overseer is commanding outside, do you want to summon the Dai Overseer? Wu Ping'an reported the situation in a low voice.

Ye Tao shook his head and said, "Forget it, if there is nothing important." That's it. Dai Yun should have been busy by now. ”

However, even though Ye Tao had enough understanding of Dai Yun's busyness, Dai Yun's respect and trust for Ye Tao made Dai Yun take the initiative to come over and ask for a meeting after learning that he had woken up Ye Tao.

"Dai Yun, the rest will be left to you. I'm grateful to you for all the way to get me here, and I've had a great time these days. The obvious meaning of resignation in Ye Tao's words made Dai Yun stunned for a moment.

"My lord, are you going back?" Dai Yun asked eagerly.

Ye Tao nodded. "Yes," he said, "I've poked a lot of baskets here." I have every confidence that you will be victorious, because under your command there is indeed the first army in the world. And when you built the world's first army, you borrowed a lot of Tieyun Cavalry. And the allied clans that are loyal to you. And after you achieve victory, regardless of the ...... of the imperial court," Ye Tao smiled and said, "Now we are the common imperial court...... No matter who is sent by the imperial court to be responsible for the handover of Yunzhou, I have already agreed to those conditions of the Yunzhou tribe, and I hope that they can be effectively implemented. Since this is the condition I prescribed. Naturally, it is up to me to convince the ladies of the court to ensure that these measures are passed. Before you set off with the tribal coalition, it wasn't suitable for me, who was the main general, to run away, but now it doesn't matter. I rushed back to Danyang. Convince Your Majesty to pass these terms, and if it goes well, it should be possible to implement the matter before the departure of a certain adult in charge of the handover of Yunzhou, and let the lord come to Yunzhou with the kindness of the imperial court. ”

Dai Yun frowned. Although she knew Ye Tao's indifference, she never thought that Ye Tao would be willing to give up the same amount of credit as the expansion of the territory to the latecomers. Dai Yun hesitated and said, "My lord, if you don't really have an understanding of the tribe, or at least someone who has no prejudice against the tribe to manage the tribe, it is better not to implement these measures and do everything as usual." Many ministers of the DPRK and China...... After all, it is different from those who grew up in Yunzhou, although Huaxia Yidi and the like are not as strict as those in Chunnan, but I don't know how those guys have their brains, and it is clear that Dongping's national strength is above Chunnan. But learn from Chunnan everywhere, this aspect is ...... On the contrary, your lord, not only did you not discriminate against the people of these tribes at all, but when you got along with them, you seemed more comfortable with them than when you got along with those officials in Danyang. ”

Ye Taodi's expression became more and more uncertain under the dim light of the tent, he smiled and said, "I haven't been with them for a few days, and they call me Lord Ye." Call me Brother Ye. Whoever calls me Xiaoye, calls me anything. There's no pressure to get along with them. Everyone doesn't put their identities on the table, that's why they are comfortable. However, when did you start calling me Lord Ye over and over again? ”

Dai Yun smiled embarrassedly and said, "I can not care, but I'm afraid that others will say that I don't care, probably so." ”

Ye Tao didn't say anything more, he sighed and was silent for a while before continuing: "I believe that Your Majesty will definitely send the right person to carry out the handover. This time, no matter what, after all, after going back, the merits still outweigh the demerits, and there is no way to throw away the official position, which is a pity. ”

Dai Yun arched his hand towards Ye Tao and said solemnly, "Ye Tao...... So, let's see you in Danyang. ”

Ye Tao waved his hand casually and said goodbye to Dai Yun. Early the next morning, Ye Tao took his ground guard to embark on the road back. With a guy like Ye Tao who has a strong curiosity and a little hard work, it is naturally impossible to really go straight to Danyang regardless of it, he stayed on the shore of Snow Wolf Lake for two days, one day was used to receive representatives of the summer communities of various tribes, and visited the largest market on the shore of Snow Wolf Lake, naturally, he needed to purchase various gifts for his relatives and friends at home, as well as the mess of things that he was interested in, so that he spent a lot of gold and silver. Due to the more complex and repeated circulation of commerce between the tribes, and the lack of a reliable intermediary to deal with it, the various disputes and troubles caused by the physical silver circulating in the tribal bazaars were also deeply imprinted in his heart. On another day, Ye Tao came to the original Lamb Mountain and now the Thunder Cliff to visit the military camp with a rough style built entirely of giant wood and cowhide. This time, he really just has to name it.

Ye Tao now also had to reflect on his previous reckless action of getting Zhuo Xianchen's department to Xiling. The battle ended too quickly, so fast that the troops sent out to disrupt Xiling's supply line had not yet played a role, and Xiling was already a little too busy to take care of itself, and Zhuo Xianchen's department became an idle move. It is estimated that in a few days, Zhuo Xianchen's department will be recalled, after all, no matter what, Zhuo Xianchen is also a child of the Zhuo family, leading the forbidden army, and it is impossible to stay behind enemy lines for a long time. But judging from the results of Zhuo Xianchen's department sent to Yunzhou and the Dai family sent by Harrier Eagle, it was a pity to give up like this.

For now, it is entirely possible to really pretend to be a bandit, occupy the mountain as the king, and even reach a certain tacit agreement with the local government. What if this "Tianwang Village" can exist for a long time, and develop silently without attracting the attention of the local government in Xiling, and finally become a nail in the coffin that penetrates Xiling? After Xiling's invasion, the female official spy was dug up around Concubine Lian, and the assassination that Ye Tao himself endured and the spy of the Daoming Sect Eagle Hall that was dug up together had to be added...... There is no doubt that Dongping's construction in the field of intelligence is much backward compared with Xiling. Especially now, in addition to the original intelligence system, Xiling has more of a heavy threat of relying on religious and spiritual forces to infiltrate.

Since Zhuo Xianchen's department has always used cloaks and masks to hide his identity, and he doesn't even say much in normal times, if he steps up his deployment and replaces Zhuo Xianchen's department, he may not even arouse suspicion if he transfers people who can manage the "Tianwangzhai" behind enemy lines for a long time. On the one hand, it quietly accumulates military strength, reserves materials to prepare for the future big war in Dongping and Xiling, and on the other hand, relies on Dongping and Yunzhou to spy and infiltrate the north of Xiling, and the "Tianwangzhai" can really play too many roles.

In Ye Tao's mind, the most ideal situation is to inherit some of the arrangements of the Dai family in Xiling, and provide various supports for the "Tianwang Village" through the original personnel and eyeliner of the Dai family. Especially now, Tan Xiaopei has moved the idea of separating the internal guards from the internal government and setting up a first-class intelligence agency, and most of the ministers of the imperial court feel that it is no problem for Dongping to maintain such an institution by the treasury, and the internal government will soon have a large amount of wealth to operate this matter, which is really ideal.

Thinking of this, Ye Tao began to draft the "Tianwangzhai" action plan on the way back, explaining the risks and significance of such an action, and also illustrating the many roles that "Tianwangzhai" can play. Perhaps the most difficult part of the whole project was the propagation of another religion that was completely fabricated and controlled by Dongping. It may not be able to destroy the status of the Daoming Sect in Xiling, but at least it can create an atmosphere of suspicion among some of the low-level people.

Let the people of Xiling have another acceptable choice in terms of religion outside of Daoming Sect, then, when Dongping and Xiling fight in the future, through various roles, the resistance encountered will be reduced to a considerable extent.

The brainwashed people are very terrible, and what is even more terrifying may be the brainwashed soldiers, not long ago, more than 20,000 people of the Daoming Sect's apologists actually resisted desperately without fear of death, and stopped the Blood Qi Army for a whole day. Although the gap between the two sides in equipment and training was too huge, and Qiu Haohui chose the most secure and safe way to gradually advance and rely on fire oil bombs to open the way, and in the end did not let the Blood Qi Army suffer too much losses, but the scene of the sergeants of the Guardian Army shouting loudly and rushing towards the Blood Qi Army front even if they were covered in fire still shocked everyone. Many people in the Blood Qi Army realized that if the Daoming Sect's apologists were better equipped and trained, they would inevitably become fierce enemies in the future.
