The ball at Fitley was held on the lawn in front of the castle,

Intoxicating wine, fresh fruits and vegetables, delicate desserts and fragrant grilled meats,

The blonde beauties are full of vitality and passion, and the Xining generals and colonies who originally had opinions on Yang Hao have lost their temper at this time.

Good wine, beautiful women, wonderful evenings......

This is a night where a romantic story happens, but Yang Hao's good mood was completely ruined by a secret report from Zhu Qi, Zhu Qi found Yan Hua's body in a post station eighty miles southwest of Feng'an City, except for a face that is still complete, the other parts have been chopped inch by inch, Yan Hua died under Xiao Tsing Yi's most cruel family method "looking for no trace", which Xiao Tsing Yi used to punish internal traitors,

Under normal circumstances, every inch of the prisoner's skin will be cut by a knife, and the flesh will be chopped up piece by piece, and then removed from the bone.

Yan Hua was cut into a skeleton, but his face was preserved: he used his corpse to demonstrate to the enemy,

"It seems that Xiao Tsing Yi is determined to do it with me this time."

For this kind of result, Yang Hao was already prepared in his heart, but the shock in his heart was still great when the incident happened.

Yang Hao decided to go back to Feng'an at dawn, the moonlight was very good at night, and he could also hurry, but in order to avoid causing unnecessary suspicion, Yang Hao still decided to spend this night in Jiulian Mountain.

In the second half of the ball, Fitley got very drunk and said a lot of nonsense, and then he was taken back to the castle by Grus and Gooden, the captain of the guard, to rest.

The generals and colonels of the Xining Army quickly disappeared into the groves around the castle with their dance partners one by one, and the rough soldiers turned into ** masters in the moonlight, and the cackling of the beauties came out from time to time in the groves.

Guan Suo and Quirina also disappeared,

Yang Hao asked Wang Qun to leave two guards around the castle, and he rushed back to the iron factory in a restless manner, he found Zhan Tianzuo, and inquired in detail about the time, funds and labor required to restore the iron factory, Zhan Tianzuo made a detailed report, and then took out a list and handed it to Yang Hao, which listed the materials and manpower he needed.

Yang Hao took a general look and replied affirmatively: "I can give you everything, and in addition, I can also assign you two sentinels to help, but a month is too long, and production must be resumed within ten days." ”

Zhan Tianzuo furrowed his brows and thought for a long time, and replied, "Give me half a month." ”

Yang Hao said: "You can't have more than one day, I might as well tell you, the war is about to start, there is no iron, you can't make weapons, do you want the soldiers to go to the battlefield with bamboo poles." ”

Zhan Tianzuo was speechless, his face was pale, and finally he spoke: "Give me one more day, I will definitely be able to do it." ”

Yang Hao patted him on the shoulder: "Good brother, it's all up to you." ”

On the morning of the second day, at the beginning of the hour,

Guan Suo came back humming a little song, his face was tired, but his cheeks were red, and when he saw Zhang Lang preparing a horse outside the tent, Yang Hao was wiping his teeth with green salt, and asked in surprise: "Leave so early." ”

Yang Hao pointed to the secret report about Yan Hua's killing reported by Zhu Qi on the table, Guan Suo took a cursory glance, put it back in place casually, lay on the soft chair and sighed: "I expected this result a long time ago, but it's a pity, it's a pity that it's a talent." ”

Yang Hao rinsed his mouth, saw that he was closing his eyes and recuperating, so he kicked him: "It feels good to be a man." ”

"I don't see anything good, it's a shame to be dead." Guan Suo's face was ashamed,

"Who made you mistakenly believe the words of the demon Tao, what yang energy can be guaranteed to live forever, as they say, wouldn't all monks live a long life, but you can see a few monks who can live past ninety."

"Those bald donkeys, there are a few pure-hearted ones, the monks of Fuguang Temple hide more than 30 women, laundry and cooking during the day, make beds and fold quilts at night to help their feet, Ji Hongtu is to seize this handle, to recover this group of bald donkeys."

Yang Hao was stunned when he heard this, Feng'an Municipal Envoy Ji Hongtu was recommended by Yue Gu to himself, he was a broken scholar, and he didn't look down on him, so he gave him a difficult problem, and asked him to take back the taxing power of the market in front of Fuguang Temple, he thought that Ji Hongtu would know the difficulty and retreat, who knew that in less than a month, he really did it, he was busy that day and didn't ask the reason, he didn't expect to use this method,

"How's it going with Quirina?"

"Guan Suo personally went out, nothing can be done, alas, but she wants to be the head of this company, and the deputy has to be chosen by herself."

"With you in the rope, I'm afraid that she can turn to the sky, you can keep an eye on this matter, three months later, I want to see the first set of heavy armor produced by the company put into my study."

"Obey military orders."

……

Yan Hua's death is undoubtedly a major blow to Zhang Bozhong, he admires Yan Hua's talent from the bottom of his heart.

Yan Hua took the initiative to go back to Xiaoqingyi to be an undercover agent, Zhang Bozhong naturally knew the risks involved, and he hesitated for a long time before agreeing.

This was the first thing he did in office, and the first thing he did was a fiasco.

When Yang Hao returned to Feng'an to summon him, he was writing a letter of resignation, preparing to resign from the Inner Temple Fang Tongzhi, and still return to the Military Justice Department as a push officer.

Yang Hao asked him to analyze the reason for Yuegu's disappearance, it was Zhu Qi's responsibility to protect Yuegu, and the people sent were all Zhu Qi's cronies, and Zhang Bozhong didn't know about Yuegu's disappearance.

The two leaders of Neisifang were defeated at the same time under Xiao Qingyi's hands, which made Yang Hao a little crying and laughing, thinking that at the beginning, he caught Guo Qin in the Daming Palace, what a majesty, when the street beat Lin Tongwei, the second leader of Xiao Qingyi, his nose was blue and his eyes were swollen, Lin Tongwei didn't even dare to let go of a fart, what a pride,

But in the blink of an eye, Lin Tongwei was a commander under him, but his two masters were dumb at the same time.

"Someone has found traces of Yuegu in the Tiande Army, you speculate what they will do next." Yang Hao explained the reason for inviting Zhang Bozhong,

Uncle Zhang was hot in the center, and immediately threw the idea of resignation out of the clouds, he pondered for a moment and said: "If they kidnapped the princess in exchange for the arrested comrades, at this time they should take the princess to Chang'an or find a hidden place to hide, and wait until the price is negotiated with us, and then exchange hostages, but they brought the princess to the Tiande Army, the Wang Envoy of the Tiande Army and the general are sworn brothers, this matter must have nothing to do with the Wang Envoy, then there is only one possibility left: they want to send the princess back to the Manhei Department." ”

Yang Hao said: "I have also thought about what you said, but I asked myself if there is no place to be sorry for the black people, why do they collude with Xiao Tsing Yi against me." ”

Zhang Bozhong hesitated for a moment, got up and said: "There is a saying, subordinates don't know whether to say it or not. ”

"Sir, please." Yang Hao motioned for Zhang Bozhong to sit down and speak,

"The general treats the five departments with a benevolent heart, but the five departments are barbarians, and they only have strength and profit in their eyes, and benevolence, righteousness and morality become worthless in the face of strength or profit, if Qiu Shiliang can come up with more generous benefits than us, they will definitely turn to the past without hesitation."

Yang Hao was silent, Zhang Bozhong's words reached his heart, these days he has been reflecting on his treatment of the barbarians, whether he has entered a misunderstanding: treat others with his heart, but in exchange for betrayal and hatred, "not my race, its heart must be different" This ancient adage at least explains a truth: the Han and Manchurian races are different, their thoughts and thoughts must be different, and the heart of the Han people must not be in the belly of the barbarians. The rest they don't even care,

Yang Hao took out a report that Zhang Cheng had just sent and handed it to Zhang Bozhong, Zhang Bozhong took a quick look, pointed to the news that "the imperial court sent Bo Zhongyan as an envoy to the Tiande Army to comfort the attached five barbarian departments", and said: "This is where the root knot lies, this Bo Zhongyan has been a Chang'an county commander, and then recommended by Wu Chen to join Qiu Shiliang's door as a staff member, Qiu Shiliang is the humerus, Qiu Shiliang sent this person to comfort the five departments of the barbarian black, and let Xiao Qingyi come forward to kidnap the princess, there must be an internal connection between these two things." ”

Zhu Qi exclaimed: "They want to plot against the Barbarian Black Five to attack Fengzhou. ”

Xiao Qi Jin's soldiers pressed the border, eyeing each other, and the five black departments hooked up with Qiu Shiliang unclearly, and the attitude was ambiguous, which made Yang Hao suddenly have an illusion of being embattled, two days ago Liu Wei openly tore up the mutual protection covenant of the three families, the reason is very far-fetched: Wang Ben's temperance status has not been recognized by the imperial court, and he cannot conclude an alliance with an undetermined black household,

This is ridiculous, when he persuaded Yang Hao to form an alliance to protect himself in Fengzhou, Yang Hao was the self-styled Feng'an Thorn History, an authentic black household, he didn't say that the spitting star splashed to form an alliance with Yang Hao to protect each other,

Now it's different from the past, Li Zaiyi controls Hedong, Tiande Army and Fengzhou have no use value, he Liu Wei calls himself a hero, how can he be a hero and be willing to nest in the Zhenwu Army's one-third of an acre, it's time to stretch out his arms to grab the territory,

"Do your best to protect the safety of the moon lonely." After saying this, Yang Hao suddenly felt a kind of guilt that he had never felt before, he felt that his nose was sore and his eyes were swollen, so he lowered his head,

Zhu Qi asked in surprise, "My lord, what's the matter?" ”

Yang Hao waved his hand and disguised: "I didn't sleep well last night, so it's okay to take a rest." When the two of them exited the inner study, Yang Hao couldn't hold back any longer, covered his face and cried,

When Zhang Bozhong didn't enter the door, Zhu Qi offered Yang Hao a strategy: ask Wang Ben to intercept Yuegu in the Tiande army and prevent him from returning to the black.

Zhu Qi's words were very vague, but Yang Hao knew very well in his heart that Xiao Qingyi was secretive, and if Wang Ben wanted to rescue Yuegu from them, he could only call the army to set up cards everywhere and spread a big net to fish for people everywhere, as for whether he could get people, it didn't matter, the important thing was to let the black people know that Wang Ben was looking for Yuegu,

If Yue Gu had an accident in the Tiande army, with the temper of a brutal black, most of this account would be recorded on Wang Ben's head, after Wang Qian's death, the Tiande army was exhausted and weakened to the extreme, what Wang Ben needed now was to recuperate and accumulate strength, unless the foreign enemy invaded, he didn't want to get involved in any battles in the outside world.

But Yang Hao needs him to shield himself from the wind and rain,

There was no choice but to pull him into the water,
