"August 23rd, time is a little short." Happy put the parchment roll in his hand on the table, sighed softly, the smile on his face did not diminish a little, and there was not only no fear in his eyes, but some excitement and playfulness,

Ling Xiaoyun was full of happy changes, and his heart couldn't help but be suspicious.

Wu Sangui's name Ling Xiaoyun has heard of it, this person is brave and good at fighting, but he has won dozens of cities in a few months, and there are hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses under his command, but he is happy to only have four states in his hands, 50,000 soldiers and horses, half of them are undertrained newcomers, not to mention much combat effectiveness, happy not to fight, obviously will hit their own morale, if it is a showdown, the disparity in strength, the odds of winning are not big, but looking at the happy appearance, it is obvious that he is confident, and he has decided Wu Sangui,

Zhang Shunzhi nodded and said: "What my lord said is very true, there is also news from the south, Wu Sangui has mobilized troops as early as ten days ago, in addition to leaving 50,000 soldiers and horses to defend Huaizhou, 20,000 to defend the west side, and about 80,000 other horses are advancing towards Nanqingzhou. ”

"In that case, we can't be cowardly, it's better to prepare early." After a pause, he happily continued: "Shunzhi, pass on Qin Qiong, Lu Zhishen." ”

Zhang Shunzhi immediately left in a hurry after agreeing, from beginning to end, there was no worry and fear on his face, Ling Xiaoyun couldn't help but wonder, Zhang Shunzhi didn't care about this matter, or had full confidence in happiness,

After enduring it for a while, Ling Xiaoyun still opened his mouth and asked: "My lord, Wu Sangui is even loud and vigorous, his morale is unparalleled, and the soldiers and horses are far superior to ours, plus we have to be on guard, if we rush to face the battle, I am afraid that we will not be able to win easily, and if we fall into the enemy's annihilation plan again, I am afraid that it will not be good." ”

After all, Ling Xiaoyun is not from a regular military background, and naturally he is not too restrained when facing happiness like Qin Qiong, Lu Zhishen and others, and he is more grateful and respectful for happiness.

Xing Xing chuckled, and then said: "Xiao Yun, when you are by my side, you should have heard of the Xuyi Special Forces, and Wu Sangui is the commander of this army." ”

"Ahh Ling Xiao Yundeng's eyes widened, and he looked at Happy with an incredulous expression, he had also heard that Happy had a person named Wu Sangui under him, but he didn't expect that Wu Sangui was the other Wu Sangui, since Wu Sangui was a happy person, the outcome of this war was doomed at all,

Only then did Ling Xiaoyun understand that he had long been in his hands from Renzhou to Qingzhou and other more than a dozen states, maybe the so-called civil rebellion, and the anti-Qi Rebellion, were all planned by him, and he controlled the entire world in his hands, so far-sighted, where is it like a fourteen-year-old child can do it,

Seeing Ling Xiaoyun's surprised appearance, he smiled happily and lightly, but he didn't care about him and continued to write at the desk.

Although Ling Xiaoyun has not followed Happy for a long time, Happy will not doubt his heart, the so-called suspicious people do not need, use people without doubt, and furthermore, Ling Xiaoyun's surname also reassures Happy that he is a person in the rivers and lakes, and his principle surname is extremely strong, indifferent to fame and fortune, and attaches great importance to love and righteousness, far from being able to look at it with ordinary eyes,

Soon, Ling Xiaoyun regained his composure, looking at the strange fonts and symbols under Gao Xing's pen, he couldn't help but ask curiously, "My lord, what are you writing?" "These days, in addition to sorting out the "Temporary Law" and "Commercial Law", dealing with official business, he writes and sketches whenever he has time, although Ling Xiaoyun does not say that he is rich and rich, but he is not illiterate, but he does not recognize much of what he writes.

"This is a book for the students of Xinghua College to study, including physics, chemistry and biology, these are good things, learn these, the living standards of the common people can be greatly improved, and we also have a fight in the face of the world." Happy put down the pen, looked at the ink on the scroll, happy face full of excitement,

"What are physics, chemistry, biology." Ling Xiaoyun was even more confused, his brows furrowed, he was happy to say that he had never heard of,

"These things have a common name, which is the natural sciences." happily got up, came to the window and stood with his hands in his hands, looked at the bright starry sky and said lightly: "Xiao Yun, do you believe in ghosts and gods." ”

Ling Xiaoyun was stunned, not knowing how to answer, and after thinking for a long time, he hesitated and said, "The saints say that there are gods and ghosts in the world, so there should be." ”

Happy chuckled and said: "I don't know if there are ghosts and gods in this world, but what the saint said may not be true. After a pause, he happily continued: "Look at the end of this vast starry sky, do you know where everything in the world comes from?" ”

Ling Xiaoyun shook his head and quietly looked at the happy back,

"The sage said, 'The heavens are round and the earth is round,' but in fact it is a fallacy, the earth is a huge sphere, but the heavens and the earth are vast and boundless, and I stand on the ground and see the stars as small as grains of sand, and I look at the stars where I stand."

Ling Xiaoyun opened his mouth, he wanted to say something but didn't know how to speak, although he was a chivalrous man, a serious barbarian in the powerful, but for the words of the saint, he was convinced of the historical cognition of mankind, but the bold remarks of happiness completely subverted Ling Xiaoyun's previous understanding, Ling Xiaoyun knew that happiness was not a person without a purpose, so he did not act out a rebuttal, but the horror in his heart was beyond measure,

"Surprised, these things can be proven, if you have enough perseverance, you might as well choose a direction and keep going, and one day you will return to the starting point." Seeing the shock on Ling Xiaoyun's face, the smile on his happy face became a little thicker,

Ling Xiaoyun swallowed his saliva, trying to digest what he was happy to say,

"Time will tell, if you have time, you can read what I wrote, although we cannot completely decipher the mysteries of nature, but with this knowledge, we can live a better life, and one day human beings will no longer be afraid of natural disasters and diseases." Hearing the sound of footsteps from far and near, Happy returned to his seat and sat down, and said slowly,

Although in the field of science, happy does not have many attainments, but the amazing memory still allows him to engrave many basic knowledge in his mind, to liberate the productive forces, naturally need the help of science and technology, Xinghua Academy those white as paper, is suitable for acceptance, inheritance of these deviant knowledge,

"Your Excellency." The happy voice fell, Zhang Shunzhi, Qin Qiong, and Lu Zhishen came together,

"Come in." Xing Xing sat up straight, and after Zhang Shunzhi and the three of them came in, Xing Xing said with a serious face: "From now on, Shandong Province has entered a state of combat readiness, and you must not take it lightly. ”

"My lord, can't Gao Yu bear the loneliness and send out the army." Lu Zhishen's eyes lit up, and his face suddenly showed excitement,

Although Qin Qiong didn't speak, there was no fear on his face, his face was solemn, and his waist was straight, but his eyes also showed a strong fighting spirit, after joining the happy camp, he had not led his troops to fight well, this was the opportunity,

"Gao Xuan hasn't made a move yet, but we have to give him a chance." Happy shake your head,

"What your lord means is that we will take the initiative to attack Jeju or Qiju, or take it at the same time." Lu Zhishen's eyes became brighter and brighter, and he looked like he was gearing up,

"You kid, what a big breath." laughed happily and scolded, his face returned to a serious appearance, he took out a ** map from under the table, and gave an order in a low voice.

It wasn't until late at night that Qin Qiong and Lu Zhishen came out of the happy study, their eyes were jumping with excitement, and the fighting intent and murderous aura on their bodies spread even more openly.

On August 18, he ordered that the four prefectures including Qingzhou should be merged into Shandong Province, and the administrative office would be set up in Qingzhou, renamed Xinghua City, and he would take the post of governor of Shandong Province and take charge of the military and political affairs of the province, and also appointed Cui Jishu as the governor of Shandong Province, responsible for the political affairs and people's livelihood in the province, and Zhang Diao was the mayor of Xinghua City, and at the same time he was the vice president of Xinghua Academy.

At the same time, he ordered the "Provisional Covenant Law" and the "Commercial Law" to be implemented under his rule, which must be strictly observed in all localities, and the officials must also govern the localities in full accordance with the law, and if there is a violation, it will not be tolerated.

At the same time, happy reform unified the unit of measurement, the measurement in ancient times was very chaotic, especially in terms of quality and length, think that once and now, Qin Shi Huang took a step at will, and the world counted in this unit, and Li Shimin in history also did so,

Now, although he is happy not yet to win the world, he has also learned what the former did like scratching bags, taking one step as a meter, and then measuring decimeters, centimeters, and even millimeters with Lu Ping.

The change of the unit of measurement is of great significance, not only to protect the technology from the outflow, to facilitate the implementation of assembly line production, but also to improve the precision of the goods produced, which is extremely beneficial to the future development of the company.

After completing a series of arrangements, the time has reached August 20th, happy to inform the people of the city that Wu Sangui in the south is rampant, occupying about the matter, solemnly swearing, then led three divisions, more than 20,000 troops to the south, accompanied by Lu Zhishen, Qin Qiong, Ling Xiaoyun and Xiao Ling,

As soon as he left Xinghua City, Gao Xuan, who was far away in Jeju, received the news that he heard that the killing god and the people under his command had left Qingzhou, and Gao Xuan couldn't help but be overjoyed.

After coming to Jeju, Gao Xuan heard about the murderous name of Happy, this person wiped out the bloody village in one fell swoop, calmed Dou An, and exterminated 30,000 Jeju elites, and destroyed Chen Qian's castle without much effort, such a brave person made Gao Xuan nervous, especially the rumored happy three heads and six arms, fierce and vicious, one person slaughtered thousands of people, and even had the power of thunderous gods and ghosts, which made Gao Xuan very afraid,

In addition, Wu Sangui was watching on the side, although he was in charge of quelling the rebellion, but he was extremely afraid of death and did not dare to act rashly.

In less than a month, Gao Xuan forcibly recruited 80,000 strong men in Jeju and Qizhou, plus the original soldiers and horses, the soldiers and horses in the two states were as many as 180,000 people, such a huge army, the daily loss of money and food is naturally innumerable, Gao Xuan stretched out his hand to the imperial court, and on the other hand, he wantonly plundered the people of Limin, making the place miserable, and the people were angry.

Hearing that he was happy to fight a decisive battle with Wu Sangui, Qingzhou City was very empty, Gao Xuan was suddenly excited, on August 21, Gao Xuan exhausted his 180,000 soldiers and horses, and came to Qingzhou from the two states, vowing to wipe out the thieves and show the prestige of the court.
