"Didn't you sleep well last night?"

Cao Baqi, who was full of enthusiasm on his face, smiled brightly, he was familiar as always, Xie Shence nodded, and walked past him very plainly, Cao Baqi was not surprised, he was used to it.

Not long after, Xie Shence called Cao Baqi over, the two left the team temporarily, Cao Baqi's face was serious, Xie Shence said: "We are not familiar with this way, so ...... I'm going to have to bother you more. ”

Cao Baqi saw that Xie Shence was not smiling, but when he heard this, his heart was relaxed for a while, and he hugged his fists and said, "Just wait for the adult's words." ”

"Well, my army is heading south, and Hebei Province is already in the bag...... Next, Leader Cao should know what to do, right? ”

Cao Baqi was stunned, and after reacting, his heart was shocked.

This is...... The Yanren are coming...... But how did they get there, how did they get there? Hebei Province is already in the bag? But there are still Northern Army in Hebei Province, as well as Sima Bi, and more than 100,000 troops...... How is it possible that you said that you would call it? It's impossible, yes, it must be impossible.

"Huh...... Hehe, the big and the big laughed, how is this possible, there is still the northern army of the Jin State in the north, and the combat power is not weak, how is it possible, ho, how...... Maybe, adults are joking. ”

"Oh, you think, I'm kidding you?"

Xie Shence looked at Cao Baqi's eyes without expression. After a while, Cao Baqi, who had been smiling a little stiff, completely calmed down, and his face was cold and iron-colored.

Xie Shence suddenly smiled: "There are many things you don't know. But in short, you don't have many options, and I know you're doing well in the Jin Kingdom...... It's not happy, you have ambitions, you have ambitions, but you can't do it, don't you? Think about it, you are a capable person, you should not sink like this...... Abandon the darkness and turn to the light, come to our side, we have the environment, origin, and ingredients that are suitable for you, it is not a problem, as long as you have the ability, you will get the ....... you want"

Cao Baqi lowered his head slightly, thought for a long time, and asked, "Can you guarantee that I will be a big official?" ”

"I can't."

"Can you guarantee that I'll be rich?"

"I can't."

“...... What's the benefit of messing with you? ”

"I can't guarantee that you will become a great official, but you will definitely be able to gain the respect of others. I may not be able to guarantee that you are rich, but your siblings, wife, and children will live safely. Are you satisfied? ”

Cao Baqi answered quickly this time.

"If you don't lie to me, I'll do it with you."

"You'll find out later."

Cao Baqi lowered his head again, gritted his teeth, and then said, "I did it!" ”

"Well, Leader Cao, you are very organized and motivated......."

For Xie Shence, this is just a simple conversation, there is nothing new, after the simple design, it is by mistake, Cao Baqi regards it as a huge backer worthy of trust.

Cao Baqi thought that Xie Shence was a fish pond, so Xie Shence revealed some "secrets", combined with some thoughts such as "You are very powerful, but your teammates are all pigs", say it a few more times, and when Cao Baqi gradually feels that he is indeed very powerful and dragged down by his teammates, he will agree with what he said, you do it with us.

Reserved and proud, is the hotbed of inconsistencies, Cao Baqi is a man, a man is not reserved, but he has his pride, he thinks, he should have dignity, so he said to Xie Shence, I will do it with you.

Yan went south, Sima Bi treasoned, to be honest, whether Hebei Province could be kept, Xie Shence was not sure at all. Of course, the Northwest Army could not have rebelled in its entirety - otherwise Hebei Province would have been bulldozed long ago. After all, there are still loyal ministers, and Sima Bi does not have full control over the Northwest Army, and there must be people who oppose him, and it is not certain whether they are more or less, so we can only hope that these people can hold it.

You have to wait until Shandong Road to react.

However...... The Yellow River is not fake, but if it is really fought, it is not too difficult to cross the river.

In short, it is a very worrying thing.

He revealed these things to Cao Baqi today, on the one hand, it was still a test to see if Cao Baqi was a good citizen or not, and whether he had the consciousness of loyalty as the prince's descendant. On the other hand, if Cao Baqi is not worth the effort, then can you use him to make some articles.

Whether it is Yan Guo or Sima Bi, as the distance from the Jin State gets closer and closer, as soon as they enter Hebei Road or enter Shandong Road through Shanxi Road, the news about these two sides can always be transmitted.

This is thousands of miles, and Xie Shence has a lot of time to think about how to design and how to save more.

*******

It was a lively time at the Iron Gate, more than any time before. However, this excitement is associated with words with positive meanings such as angry and festive.

As the most important commercial and trade hub in the northwest and even the entire Guanwai Province, Tiemen Pass seems to have more prominent political significance and commercial value, but no one will ignore its military status. At the beginning, the new Tiemen Pass was carried out in full accordance with the optimal model of a military town, and at this time, after decades of continuous expansion, it has already become a highly autonomous military town, the center of the entire northwest.

Once operational, its energy is terrifying.

Unlike the last war with Duanbu, this war with Tuoba Xianbei was far beyond in terms of scale and importance, and the controllability was not clear.

For the Duan Division, although everyone was also nervous at that time, they were more excited, and the absolute upper echelons had a complete grasp of the control of the entire battle situation and the direction of the entire situation.

However, at this time, the vast majority of generals were confused, and a considerable number of them could not see hope. In particular, the Yuwen Ministry tore up the covenant and brazenly turned around the troops, which cast a thick shadow on the hearts of many people, and as the news of Sima Bi's treason and the Yan State's dispatch of troops spread faintly among the upper echelons, fear and uneasiness swept away.

Jiang Qi is tough and resolutely fighting, which is the philosophy he has always implemented. He was also bold, using a series of unconventional means to clear up some people and stabilize the internal situation in general, and then began a lot of work. The mobilization of troops, the distribution of grain and grass, the staff, and the soldiers, as well as the manpower, material, and financial resources that can be mobilized in the northwest, have been planned in as much detail as possible in a very short period of time.

Of course, it's impossible to do everything. Moreover, the situation in the northwest is not necessarily optimistic, even if it is comprehensive.

After all, it is still the power of one place to confront the two countries...... Jiang Qi himself doesn't necessarily have much confidence.

Wang Qingyan was very busy during this time, in addition to burying the sorrow of Xie Shence without any news in her heart, she also had to assist the staff of the Shuai Mansion to deal with many things. Because she is almost the identity of the "red top", the business group formed single-handedly has brought huge benefits to the northwest in recent years, and her status has risen. Underneath the commercial value is a deeper relationship.

The steppe has always been the most well-informed about caravans.

Organize information, analyze information, mobilize materials, and allocate property...... One by one, because of her identity and Jiang Qi's acquiescence, she was able to occupy a pivotal position in one of the most confidential rooms of the Iron Gate.

The importance of status is often proportional to the number of things, so Wang Qingyan frequently traveled back and forth between his home and the Shuaifu during this time.

That night, it was already very late, Wang Qingyan, who was dragging his tired body, came out of the Shuai Mansion, and the general who had been waiting outside came to the carriage, Wang Qingyan got into the car, holding the small hand stove that the ladies and ladies like very much, leaning on the back wall of the carriage.

It's going to be tough in the northwest, isn't it...... Thinking of some of the things dealt with today, because of the interests of some people, there were two original military supplies today, which were resolutely opposed by some people when they were ready to be transferred, and the transfer department almost quarreled the sky, and finally it was Jiang Qi's first strategist Jia Xu who arrived before it could be resolved. However, until she left, the two supplies were still not mobilized.

All sides are pulling the strings......

The iron gate, which seems to have been fully activated by the war, is actually not optimistic in the eyes of those who are really high-level and can receive a considerable part of the secrets. She can touch things that the lower class people can't reach, and she can take into account things that the lower class people can't consider.

Thinking of the few words that Jia Xu said to her alone when she left, Wang Qingyan chewed it carefully, and at this time, she didn't know what kind of mood to use to feel better.

"In another month or two, it may be one or twenty days, if there is still no news from the little marquis, the Shuai Mansion will send you south...... Although the handsome man has passed away, the second master is still there, and he can keep you safe...... You don't have to say anything in a hurry, Miss San, you are an understanding person, I said this, although I said it on behalf of Jiang Shuai, but the meaning, you know, I won't say much...... If you want to say that you want to leave, it's actually nothing, and Jiang Shuai is happy to see you, after all, you and the young lady ...... There's no need to stay here......"

The meaning of these words is very clear to Wang Qingyan. If Jiang Qi was sure, he would not say such a thing, especially if he asked his first strategist to take the lead, or take such an opportunity.

The northwest is about undefendable...... Even Jiang Qi is thinking of a way back for some people.

However...... How could I possibly go?

I came here alone, and I finally waited for you, but I didn't want you to go out, and I couldn't wait for you to come back, how could I leave? I'm coming alone, and you want me to go alone?

I don't want to go...... I'm so tired and hard right now...... These people quarrel all day long, but they can't come up with a complete plan, some of the army rushes to a certain place, some are on standby, and no one cares about it for ten or twenty days, and the daily consumption of the army is amazing, and some people think about their own one-third of an acre of land with a red face and a thick neck......

These are not things that I can face as a woman, and you are not here at this time...... You're not here, where are you? Did you know I miss you so much? I miss you so much......

Silently, Wang Qingyan covered his mouth, tears flowed out like this, and he couldn't stop it, with the whimpering of the cold wind outside, it was like crying.

When she got out of the car, the hood was already on, and no one could see her face, the general who drove the car went down with the four samurai behind, and the two maids came with lanterns, and led her back to the room in front, and halfway through, Xiao Ye'er came over and said that Wang Jiehua invited her over.

Wang Qingyan wanted to refuse, but thinking that the two of them didn't seem to have spoken for many days because of Xie Shence's matter, they were in a very bad mood today, so it was better to see each other, and say whatever they wanted, and it was good to relieve their anger.

Seeing Wang Jiehua, Wang Qingyan chuckled in his heart.

Wang Jiehua held a piece of paper, bit her lip, stared at it with her eyes, and cried. When I looked up at him, I seemed to smile.

Wang Qingyan felt that the strength of his whole body was drained for a moment, and he almost couldn't stand. If...... If it was possible, she thought, it would be better to never hear from her.....

Wang Jiehua spoke, and in the end Wang Qingyan still cried.

"He's still alive......"

Ho...... Wang Qingyan was stunned for a moment, then the corners of his mouth curled up and he collapsed.

Finally...... Ho, haha...... Very good......
