In January, the spring dreamed without a trace, and the empty style was chanting to the moon.

Early in the morning of the second day, Shen Mo took off the Confucian robe and scarf he was accustomed to wearing, and after bathing, he re-tied his hair in a bun, "after carefully grooming his mane, he put on a golden seven-beam crown on his head, wore a red Luo court dress, and stepped on black shoes" and walked out of the camp tent with an elephant wat in his hand.

Zhong Jin was waiting outside, in good spirits" It seems that Lu Gang was not too embarrassed last night, but seemed to let go of his heavy worries and restored the brightness and excitement of the girl: "Master is so majestic today!" "Uh" Shen Mo coughed lightly, "Today is a major event of the country, of course, you have to dress formally." ”

"I'm going to wear ...... too," Zhong said.

"You're going to worship your ancestors." Silent black line said: "How can there be a reason to wear Han clothes?" ”

"It doesn't matter." Zhong Jin withdrew and said, "I want to wear the same clothes as my master." ”

Shen Mo couldn't be entangled, so he had to wave his hand and said, "Let's change the court clothes for Beiji." ”

The two maids bowed down and answered, "Then they led Zhong Jin, who was full of smiles, down."

The troops were packing up, and the guards set up a set of tables and chairs for Shen Mo, asking him to "wait for the departure" first.

With the blue sky and green grass, enjoying the white clouds and breeze, silently using a simple breakfast, his expression is calm and calm. For what happened last night, it is impossible to say that he did not have a little heart wave, but in a short moment, his heart quickly regained its clarity, perhaps because he had been an old traitor for too long, and he would always save the belly of others with his own heart.

Although the prairie woman dares to love and hate, Zhong Jin's disregard for showing love is really a bit abrupt. At that time, Lu Gang, who came to arrest her, had already arrived, and even if she confessed to herself, she might be arrested and interrogated, which was absolutely disastrous for a woman. So Shen Mo had to suspect that her sudden confession was actually for the people who came to arrest her. If that's the case, her goal has obviously been achieved," Lu Gang was really jealous, so that she was able to pass the test smoothly.

Of course, this may also be her own dark psychology, "But today she asked to wear Hanfu to go back to see her people, but it was definitely a scheming performance, but Shen Mo is not surprised" Because a woman who reads "Zizhi Tongjian" seriously knows how to use the resources around her to enhance her own value" and is not disgusted, it is really not surprising that at least Shen Mo is not disgusted, because what he carefully cultivates is not a vase, but a powerful grassland woman.

Now it seems that she did not disappoint herself, but there were some small surprises.

Hearing the girl's laughter from the tent, she silently held the teacup and looked at it with a smile. I saw that Zhong Jin had changed into a blue pleated skirt, a red coat of Yunxia Peacock Wenzhen, and a beautiful gold crown full of precious stones tied with a tweezer gold pendant, and walked towards him. With each step, the corners of the skirt swayed, revealing red embroidered shoes, making this spring morning look extremely beautiful.

Seeing Shen Mo looking at herself intently, Zhong Jin smiled happily She used the etiquette of a Han lady, interlocked her fingers with both hands, put them on the left waist, bent her legs and bent down, looking very dignified and elegant. What he said was very out of line: "Master, am I good-looking?" ”

Shen Mo is not an untrained reckless man, but his words and deeds are "the most standard scholarly style, so he can't stand this undisguised enthusiasm" can only cough lightly and whisper: "Good-looking." ”

"Thank you Master for the clothes you gave me." Zhong Jin smiled like a flower and said, "I really like it."

"Don't thank me" Shen silently put down the teacup, stood up and said: "If you want to thank the court, thank the court." ”

"Why do you want to thank the court?" Zhong Jin was puzzled.

"Because this is the court's gift to you." , smiled silently and said: "It was supposed to be given after the festival, but seeing that you are so positive, I will give it to you first." ”

Zhong Jin looked at Shen Mo depressedly and said, "Master, you are really an old traitor."

"One another." Shen Mo laughed and said, "That's right for you." So he handed her a round-headed elephant wat.

Zhong Jin took it, fiddled with it curiously, and then looked at the one in Shen Mo's hand, and said angrily: "Why is your one more than two feet, and mine is only more than half a foot?" "Because men have a lot of things. Shen Mo smiled bitterly.

"What's going on?" Zhong Jin asked curiously.

"The wat board is a thing used by the ancients to serve and respect the elders". Shen Mo explained.

"But you don't have a pen, it's so long, it's obviously a beating!" Zhong Jin did not relent.

"The dynasty also used it to beat villains. Okay, I'll hit you just when you rub it again! He raised his hand silently, but smiled: "Let's go quickly." ”

一凵一"

Not long after the team left, an army came to greet the two headed by Qi Jiguang and Zheng Luo.

This is the first time the three of them have met this year, of course, they are very happy, and they keep "so that Zhong Jin, who wants to go quietly with the master for the last paragraph, is not depressed, and his mouth is deflated all the way."

Qi Jiguang and Zheng Luo are both clear-eyed people, "I have long seen that the relationship between this woman and the Inspector is not ordinary, but the two of them understand people even more, so they naturally pretend not to see it, and they are not interested in themselves."

Shen Mo knew that "this kind of thing is getting darker and darker, and it is simply up to them to think about it." However, he still asked Zhong Jin to avoid it first, and after the two of them looked at each other strangely, he asked how many people had come to participate in this sacrifice.

"Surprisingly much." As soon as he got down to business, Zheng Luo immediately regained his capable appearance, and replied in a deep voice: "I have sent his righteous son Dayuncha to come, and the Chahar Khan Court has sent a genuine prince, as well as the Noyan Darla brothers, in addition to the four that have been attached, two more have come. Yan said happily: "It seems that they know that if they continue to fight against the court, there will be no good life" So I took this opportunity to find out the rumors. ”

"Don't be too optimistic." Shen Mo shook his head and said: "How can these Mongolian princes who have been rebellious all their lives be so easy to comply? "Yes", Qi Jiguang on the side also said: "As far as the last general knows, this winter" I replied to exchange the large pastures of Alshantu for the reattachment of the Wushen Department. Although he is old, he can't be underestimated" Although the price he paid was heavy, it was a triple win. First, of course, the end of civil strife; Secondly, if this pasture bordering the barbarians is ceded to the Wushen Ministry, the burden of guarding against the barbarian sneak attack will no longer be on the border with the Tubarian Ministry, "Naturally, it will also be lost to the Wushen Ministry: in this way, inside and outside, "I can draw troops from both sides, and on the premise of defending the old nest, I will be able to form a maximum of 100,000 people......

"What do you mean?" Shen Mo whispered.

"The last general will judge that I am likely to be in person." Qi Jiguang said in a deep voice: "Because once we build a front on the north bank of the Yellow River, he will face a two-sided attack, and he will be in an extremely disadvantageous position. I'm afraid that it won't be long before I have to leave the Tumo River, or go north, or go west, "Either way, I will completely lose my foundation for many years" and I will no longer be able to threaten my Ming Dynasty. After a pause, he said: "I will definitely not sit idly by and watch this situation appear." ”

"If Yuan Jing's expectation is good", Zheng Luo said with a solemn face: "Then my righteous son comes, I'm afraid the motive will not be pure." ”

Shen Mo nodded, he believed in Qi Jiguang's judgment, because the Military Intelligence Department had already uncovered several conspiracy to sabotage this spring festival, "It is impossible that only the White Lotus Sect is making trouble behind this, and eighty percent has the full support of me." Because anyone with a discerning eye knows that this so-called spring festival is actually the submission ceremony of several Mongolian tribes attached to it. Of course, I replied that I had to try to make a difference, "at least show my existence", and let them not go too far.

After pondering for a moment, he silently instructed the guards beside him: "Tell the Military Intelligence Department, "Don't pull out that nail first, let him cooperate with me to play a scene......"

一一"一,一"

When they were twenty miles away from Ganderly Obao, Noyandala came to greet him, and looked silently at him, and the absence of the figures of Baisang and his other two younger brothers "knew that the arrival of the Altan messenger" made the minds of the three of them change. Shen Mo secretly sneered, shook Noyandala's hand affectionately, and asked him to board the car to pass with him.

In this last leg of the trip, Shen Mo no longer rode a horse, but instead sat in a four-horse carriage, with a guard of honor in front and a canopy in the back, which was the prestige of the Shaobao and the prince and the prince's second assistant to the cabinet and the nine-sided governor. From this moment on, "he no longer represents himself, but the Heavenly Empire, he wants to use his own momentum, declare the determination of the imperial court to recover the Hetao is overwhelming, when the car is five miles away from the cemetery, he sees that on both sides of the road, there are all Han officers and soldiers with high morale, they are facing each other, every five steps a pair, every hundred zhang also set up an arrow tower, at a glance, like two mighty city walls" to defend their supreme commander.

Seeing this scene, Shen Mo stood up, holding the chariot in one hand, raising it high in the other, and looking at his officers and soldiers with solemn eyes. Feeling the gaze of the commander, the soldiers were very excited, and their faces tightened, "Hold your chest high and accept his review."

At this time, Qi Jiguang shouted: "Salute to the superintendent!" ”

Tens of thousands of people raised their weapons at the same time and looked at Shen Mo solemnly.

"Long live Daming!" Qi Jiguang received a sentence.

"Long live Daming!" The soldiers were quietly shouting from the mountains and the sea, and tens of thousands of people were like one voice, obviously prepared in advance.

"Expelling the shoecapes!" Qi Jiguang received another sentence.

"Expelling the shoecapes!" The soldiers shouted a tsunami.

"Restore my Hetao!" Qi Jiguang shouted again.

"Restore my Hetao!" The soldiers shouted a tsunami.

This deafening, soaring sound, made Noyan Dara's face pale. Seeing the tough posture of the Ming army, and then thinking of the restless guys in front of the Holy Ancestor Mausoleum, his heart was twitching: "It's all messed up, my peace ceremony, ah...... silence is also surging all the way, but unlike Noyan Dara, he was shocked by a strong sense of presence and the powerful power that kept pouring out of his heart...... He is a human being, but like all the motivated young people in this world, he studied hard, passed the exams, won the top spot in Hanlin, went out of the southeast and the northwest, and went up step by step.

Finally, the ten-year cold window and ten-year officialdom "have the opportunity to display their ambitions, but only when they are there is an immersive scene do they know "what kind of thorny road they have embarked on...... The Hetao homeland should be recovered, "the arrogance of the Da Da should be dispelled, the barbarians of Chahar should be driven away, and the Duoyan Sanwei of Liaodong should be eliminated, all of which are in order to restore the defense line set up by Taizu and cancelled by Chengzu, first, to make the Ming Dynasty unload the heavy burden of border defense, second, to free up the country's hands to carry out internal deepening and grass reform, and third, to prolong the country's dissolution at the worst, so as not to lose the country in a few decades.

In the past two hundred years of the Ming Dynasty, there have been many virtuous ministers, and I don't know how many people have struggled for this, but none of them have succeeded. Don't look at him resolutely leading the troops to battle, but until that moment, he really didn't know whether he could achieve this eternal achievement this time. In other words, "he leads the army outside and controls the provincial finances" seems to be infinite, but in fact it is like being on the edge of the abyss. If it is not handled properly, it will cause an uproar in the government and the opposition, not only will it be difficult to guarantee the success of this time, but it will also put his life's work on the line.

But he has been saving for half his life, in order to show "to be able to play a line of defense for the Ming Dynasty that can be guaranteed for two hundred years, it is not in vain to go through this life, even if the second half of his life is put on hold and idle, it is worth ......, in the final analysis, he has realized that if he goes further, he will have a head-on conflict with the imperial power, and the powerlessness of fear "can only be experienced by those who have lived in the imperial society."

So he took the risk of being a great achiever, "I also have to do this thing well, just to avoid a situation where chickens fly and eggs fight at both ends."

He is really afraid, afraid that he will be vulnerable in front of the imperial power, afraid of causing disaster to his family, afraid that half of his life's hard work will be wasted, it is precisely because of his anxiety that he has this idea of retreating to the second.

But at this moment, he stood by the wheel, "the car wind blows, and the clothes are fluttering." On both sides of the road are the soldiers who followed him to make immortal achievements, and in front of you is the tomb of Genghis Khan, which is getting closer and closer. I want to be a victor to pay tribute to that generation of Tianjiao!

Isn't this glorious history created by yourself? So why can't we expect to create even more dazzling history in the future?!

At this moment, his mentality has finally changed from a participant in history to a creator of history! Put away the tragic hesitation, always a sense of eternity, he looked far away, saw a touch of green mountains, under the mountains, stone statues, stone lions, Weng Zhong standing in the grass and trees, full of rhododendrons, flashing red light like flames.

All the past, count the romantic characters, and look at the present! Cheng Bosi Khan, I'm coming!!
