Shi Hu left the Hongguang Pavilion, then hugged Liu Guifei in his arms, and said: "Look, concubine, I won't let you go to Wolong Mountain, you are still not happy, and you almost took your own life." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

Liu Guifei said with an aggrieved face: "How did the concubine know that there would be such a thing?" If I had known that someone would assassinate me, I wouldn't have killed my concubines and wouldn't have gone to that Qiansheng Temple! Besides, isn't it for the concubines to go to the Qiansheng Temple so that Your Majesty can have a dragon body, a healthy life, and Tianqi? The concubine almost lost her life there, and His Majesty actually said cool things. ”

Liu Guifei said, pouting and looking very unhappy.

Shi Hu hurriedly explained: "How can I say cool words? I'm afraid when I think about it now, if I hadn't sent someone to protect Concubine Ai after listening to what Concubine Ai had said, maybe I wouldn't have seen Concubine Ai. ”

Liu Guifei turned her head and said to Shi Hu: "Isn't that Your Majesty, you have considered it thoroughly?" The concubine is afraid to think about it now, and she will never go to that place again in the future. ”

"If you want to go, I won't let you go!" Shi Hu pinched Liu Guifei's face, and then asked, "I saw you limping just now, did you hurt your leg?" ”

Liu Guifei nodded to Shi Hu with tears in her eyes, pointed to her feet and said, "Yes, I accidentally fell and sprained when I was chased by that assassin last night, it hurts!" ”

"Here, let me see how it hurts." Shi Hu said, gently lifting Liu Guifei's feet and taking off her shoes.

Liu Guifei inhaled the cold air in pain and shouted, "Oops! Your Majesty, tap! It hurts! ”

Shi Hu had already taken off Liu Guifei's shoes, pulled up the trouser hem a little, and found that Liu Guifei's ankles were swollen like steamed buns.

Shi Hu looked solemn and said solemnly to Concubine Liu: "Concubine Ai, don't worry, I will definitely find out about this matter and give Concubine Ai an explanation!" ”

"Hmm~" Liu Guifei nestled in Shi Hu's arms and nodded vigorously.

The Qingwang Mansion was still brightly lit at night, and Shi Zun walked around the house with some uneasiness in his heart, and suddenly Tan Yuan shouted softly outside the door: "Your Highness." ”

As soon as Shi Zun heard Shi Zun's voice, he immediately turned around and shouted, "Come in." ”

Tan Yuan pushed the door in, and before he could close the door, Shi Zun asked, "How is it?" How many are back? ”

Tan Yuan sighed and replied, "There are still two, the one who didn't come back, I'm afraid that someone really caught them." ”

Shi Zun was a little annoyed, kicked over the chair next to him, and said, "These people are the most elite assassins under this king, who can knock out this king's people so easily?" ”

Tan Yuan shook his head helplessly and said: "My subordinates have sent someone to check for a whole day, and I don't have a clue at all, it is said that if there is such a powerful person in this capital, it is impossible for us not to know." ”

Shi Zun waved his hand and said, "No, we all forgot about one person!" ”

"Who?" Tan Yuan asked.

"Shi Zhan!" When Shi Zun said Shi Zhan's name, his eyes were full of murderous intent.

Tan Yuan was silent for a moment, and said slowly: "What His Highness said also has some truth, Shi Zhan has always been the number one master of my Zhao Kingdom, and his fierce generals are like clouds, if you want to secretly cultivate a few killers with strong martial arts, with his ability, you can do it." It's just that his subordinates can't figure it out a little, even if Shi Zhan's subordinates can have such a master, I'm afraid there is no need for him to get involved in this matter, right? His subordinates really couldn't figure out what reason he had to get involved. ”

"What if he's already the second one?" Shi Zun asked.

Tan Yuan shook his head and said, "It's unlikely, my subordinates have been sending people to keep an eye on Xihua Houfu, except for King Yan who visited the door twice, no one else from King Yan Mansion has been to Xihua Mansion during this period." ”

"Then there are no other suspicious people in Xihua Houfu?" Shi Zun continued to ask Tan Yuan.

"No, since Shi Zhan returned to Yecheng, there has been no other contact between Xihua Houfu and Yanwang Mansion, and it stands to reason that Shi Zhan has not stood on Yanwang's side now. Moreover, there was no sign of any movement in the barracks outside the city, and no one left the camp without permission, so his subordinates thought that even if Xihuahou had such ability, it should not be his person who robbed us. ”

"So who did this? If you don't find out, with the skills of that mysterious person, with only a few people, this king will not be safe even if he stays in this Yan Wang's mansion! ”

"Your Highness, please rest assured, your subordinates will definitely find out the situation as soon as possible and solve the big trouble for Your Highness."

Shi Zun waved his hand at Tan Yuan, and said impatiently: "Okay, okay, you can step back first, and let this king stay alone for a while." ”

Tan Yuan bowed his hand slightly and said, "The subordinates retired." ”

With that, he walked out and gently closed the door. Shi Zun sat on the chair full of decadence, supported his forehead, closed his eyes, and thought about things over and over again.

At this time, in the Xihua Waiting Mansion, Shi Min was sitting in front of Shi Zhan's bed, and Shi Zhan carefully looked at the conscription concept written by Shi Min.

"Does the father think the child's idea is viable?"

Shi Zhan looked at the few pieces of paper in his hand again and again, pondered for a long time, and then replied: "Conscription is necessary, but the plan you said to select and train elite soldiers is afraid that it will be difficult to realize. ”

Shi Min was stunned for a moment, obviously a little lost, and asked, "Father, why at this time?" ”

"First, the so-called elite must be one out of a hundred or even one out of a thousand, if you want to form an elite cavalry of 1,000 people, you must at least choose from 100,000 people, and I am afraid that there are not so many people for you to choose from at the moment. Second, assuming that the personnel can be satisfied, these elite cavalry must have the best equipment and war horses, do you know what the elite troops under his command were equipped with when Huo Quai's north chased the Huns? ”

Shi Min shook his head, indicating that he didn't know.

"My father has only heard of it, and it is said that the elite cavalry under his command is each equipped with several good horses, all of which are fed with corn, and the horsepower is excellent. The armor and long knives on his body were also carefully selected, with two bows and 100 arrows per person. This kind of consumption, do you think that with the current national strength of Zhao State, it will be consumed? Now that there is famine everywhere and people are displaced everywhere, it would be good for people to be fed, so how can there be extra corn to feed war horses? ”

After listening to Shi Zhan's words, Shi Min was speechless for a long time, and the problems that Shi Zhan said were indeed something he hadn't considered.

"Sun Tzu's art of war has clouds, where the art of war is used, galloping thousands of cars, leather cars thousands of times, with 100,000 armor, and thousands of miles of food. Then the internal and external expenses, the use of guests, the material of glue paint, the dedication of the car armor, the daily cost of thousands of gold, and then 100,000 teachers. Shi Zhan looked at Shi Min and asked, "Do you understand the meaning of these words?" ”

Shi Min nodded silently.

"However, your idea is not without merit, with the current national strength of Zhao State, it is definitely impossible to build a powerful cavalry like Huo Quai, but one or two thousand people, and then the equipment is appropriately reduced to the specification, it is still possible."

When Shi Min heard this, he suddenly became energetic, turned his sadness into joy, and pulled Shi Zhan and asked, "Father means that the child can go to His Majesty to ask for this plan?" ”

Shi Zhan nodded, and then said: "Also, the matter of conscription, you also need to ask Your Majesty, at present, the population of the Central Plains is withering, and conscription is definitely not an easy task. ”

"What the father said is very true, the child remembers it, and will go to His Majesty early tomorrow morning to ask for this matter."

"It is not easy for Zhao to gain a foothold in the Central Plains, and the Xianbei Xiongnu Southern Jin Dynasty formed a situation of entrapment on Zhao State. Although Zhao and the Southern Jin Dynasty are separated by the Yangtze River moat, but the north of Zhao is a horse and a flat river, Xianbei has always been eyeing the Central Plains, and has been plotting for a long time, so the military affairs cannot be wasted for a day. ”

"What the father thought, he thought deeply, and the child is taught again today." Shi Min said seriously.

"Do you feel that you like to enjoy the feeling of defeating the enemy on the battlefield all your life?" Shi Zhan asked.

Shi Min was stunned for a moment and asked, "The child doesn't quite understand, as a soldier, shouldn't he be proud of defeating the enemy?" ”

Shi Zhan smiled slightly, shook his head and said: "The victory of every battle is based on the bones of tens of thousands of fallen soldiers, and it is also based on the hard work of countless croppers. As a father, I don't enjoy the joy of winning a war, because I don't want to face war, but without us soldiers, who will defend my family and country? Who will protect the people of Li and the country? A true commander-in-chief's military decisions may not only affect the victory of a war and the number of sacrifices of soldiers, but in the longer term, it can even affect the situation of a country. ”

After Shi Min listened, he couldn't speak for a long time. Shi Zhan patted Shi Min's hand and said, "You can go and see "The Art of War", after reading it, you may be able to better understand the meaning of being a father." ”

"The kid has read it before." Shi Min said silently.

"Read it a few more times."

"Yes......" Shi Min nodded silently.
