There is one thing Xu Wenhan said wrongly, Yang Zhi is not worried about the fact that he accidentally met the two children. Even if they have a special status, after all, they are just two children who are not sensible. Facts have proved that few people who live at the peak of power all day long are psychologically normal. Yang Zhi, who is a man in two lives, not only has no hope of power, but also has an instinctive antipathy in his heart.

Three days later, the two little masters really came to the door. Yang Zhi greeted each other with a smile that was neither humble nor arrogant, and still commensurate with the "Qi Wu" and "Yang Wei" they introduced themselves that day.

Unexpectedly, the two of them were full of shame, and Zhao Qi, the king of Yue, took the initiative to say listlessly: "Brother Yang, you don't have to pretend to be confused with us. I told the fourth sister everything about that day, and she said that our identities can't be hidden from you at all. ”

Fourth sister? That is, the legendary Changxiu princess Zhao Yan. Yang Zhi said frankly: "I really didn't know who the two were at the time, but when I came back and inquired, I found out that it was Wang Ye and Wei Gongzi. ”

Wei Feiyang asked uneasily, "What...... Would you still like to be friends with us? ”

Yang Zhi smiled and asked, "Why not?" ”

"Really?" Xiao Zhao Qi said in surprise: "The fourth sister also said that if after revealing my identity, if you pay respectful respects, or bend your tongue, or simply tremble with fright, then our friend will definitely not be able to make friends." ”

The imperial power is supreme, there is an emperor Lao Tzu, if you don't pay attention to say the wrong word or accidentally let him rub a little skin, it may lead to death. From this point of view, Zhao Qi's friends must be pitiful.

Wei Feiyang bowed to Yang in a serious manner and said: "The day before yesterday, Brother Yang sacrificed his life to gallop on the horse, and he was not afraid to threaten his heart to be kind, and his good life is respectable. The eldest husband should be above board, I had a heart-to-heart relationship, but I deliberately concealed my name, which was not done by a gentleman, and I beg Brother Yang to forgive me. ”

His words were extremely sincere, and he had the style of a general. Yang Zhi said with interest: "Young Master Wei doesn't have to be polite. Well, we're friends from today. ”

Zhao Qi smiled: "No wonder even my father said that you are a strange person!" There are literary talents who move Jinling by coincidence, there are invisible-minded minds who eliminate well-planned robberies and killings in the face of danger, and there are invincible brave skills. The face is both thick-hearted and dark enough, not only does he have a vicious eye that is ready to make a fortune, but he also dares to ask people to pay you 120,000 taels for 20,000 taels. Even better, you are said to be a cook who can make many delicious dishes. Brother Yang, I have made up your friend! ”

Yang Zhi couldn't help but feel a chill: Is this praising me or scolding me? The emperor knows his details very clearly!

Wei Feiyang said eagerly: "It is rumored that Brother Yang's martial arts skills seem simple, but they are extremely fast and powerful. I hope to give you advice in the future! ”

"I'm not interested in smashing stuff. In the future, you can teach Feiyang a person, I will definitely not be blushing. Zhao Qi said with a smile: "As for other novel and interesting halls, we might as well learn from each other often." Brother Yang, when Feiyang and I return to your house today, do you want us to learn your exquisite cooking skills first? You shouldn't be so stingy, right? ”

When he met such a distinctive little prince, what else could Yang Zhi say? "Okay, okay. I said yes. ”

The two little guys really didn't say anything polite to him, and they couldn't stop the car as soon as they opened the mouth. Since then, Wei Feiyang has been there almost every day, and Zhao Qi has also been in the Yang family for three days. Wei Feiyang was influenced by his father since he was a child, obsessed with martial arts and obsessed with military affairs, Yang Zhi not only taught fighting skills, but also sometimes explained some modern military theories to him. Zhao Qi yawned as long as he talked about this, and his eyes lit up when he mentioned eating, drinking, and having fun. But what attracts him the most is the countless novel stories in Yang Zhi's stomach, such as Harry Potter and Sun Wukong's three fights against the white bone spirit.

Yang Zhi and Xu Wenhan, as the senior staff of the Qin family, did not assign any specific work, and their lives were very leisurely, while Qin Kongyun was very busy. As the New Year approached, in addition to taking care of the complicated affairs of the family business in the previous year, it was also necessary to purchase a large amount of grain and horses for the household and military departments to transport to Shuofang to supplement the wintering of the army that resisted the Turkic invasions at the border pass.

In December of the twenty-fourth year of Wucheng in the Xia calendar, King Ning led his army to attack Jiangxia, fought fiercely for several days, and retreated to Suizhou. The crown prince of the Southern Tang Dynasty was about to get married in January of the following year, and Emperor Xia sent his younger brother Zhao Xing, the king of Fu, and Chen Zhiguang, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, to Jinling to congratulate the ceremony. Emperor Xia will openly select a group of young generals among the 200,000 soldiers of the forbidden army every year, and in previous years it was arranged after the autumn, but the recent news in the palace said that Emperor Xia intended to hold it in January of the next year.

Xu Wenhan and Yang Zhi sniffed out a strange smell in this information. Qin Kongyun, who was rarely free during this time, sent someone to invite Yang Zhi to come over the mansion for a drink. After the three of them chatted some gossip during the banquet, Qin Kongyun asked abruptly: "I don't know what Mr. and Brother Yang think about the trend of the court?" ”

Xu Wenhan exchanged glances with Yang Zhi and replied, "Is Childe testing us?" If the two of us were not mistaken, the emperor has temporarily shelved the plan to destroy the Tang Dynasty, and there will be a war with the Turks after the beginning of spring next year. ”

Qin Kongyun was not very surprised by this answer: "Why are you so sure? ”

"What's so hard to guess about this?" Yang Zhi said with a smile: "The Turks are the external troubles of the Central Plains Dynasty in the past dynasties, and Great Xia has stationed heavy troops on the northern border, and has not dared to relax in the slightest for many years, and the military supplies have been hoarded to be sufficient. If you are not preparing for war, why replenish it during the snow and ice season, when transportation is inconvenient? Jiangxia is the gateway town of Changsha, the capital of Southern Chu, how can it be defeated in a few days? However, it was to take offense as defense and increase the high-pressure situation against Southern Chu, so that Southern Chu had no intention of cooperating with the Turks, so as not to fall into the situation of fighting on both the northern and southern fronts. As for sending important ministers to Jinling to watch the ceremony and congratulate them, is it still the ** soup to appease the Southern Tang Dynasty? ”

Xu Wenhan further elaborated: "The Turks are insatiable and have no faith, not only do they have to spend a lot of financial resources every year, but they also have to contain hundreds of thousands of troops in Great Xia for many years and dare not wave their troops south, which has always been the emperor's most annoyed heart. Since the founding of the country, Great Xia has been passive defense and rarely takes the initiative to attack. This battle can only be won and not defeated, and the emperor must have found a way to win against the Turks. ”

"Regardless of victory or defeat, the two sides will still make peace after the First World War. For the emperor, this battle is tantamount to a big gamble. His real intention was that if he hurt the Turks this time, he would at least get a few years of peace on the northern border. Without the constraints of the Turks, the emperor would have no worries when he launched a war to destroy the Tang Dynasty. ”

Qin Kongyun looked at Yang Zhi with a strange expression and asked, "Brother Yang thinks that the emperor's method of victory will be?" ”

In history, the only people who can beat the Xiongnu and the Turks are the two cattle men of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and Taizong of the Tang Dynasty. Yang Zhi replied without even thinking about it: "The emperor must have started to prepare a new cavalry corps after the war with the Turks in July this year. In order to save military spending and shorten the preparation time, the number of people should not exceed 20,000. For the sake of insurance, I estimate that while the emperor sent this elite army deep into the grassland desert to look for fighters, he would also send another army to press the formation behind. ”

"The biggest advantage of the Turkic cavalry is that it is not dragged down by logistical baggage. Quickly maneuver with war, fight if you can fight, and don't fight hard with the Xia army if you can't fight. The emperor's so-called method of victory is nothing more than drawing a scoop according to the gourd, and a cavalryman is equipped with at least two horses, or even three, to maneuver against maneuver. The living environment of the Turkic people is extremely harsh, and the medical conditions and medical skills are far less developed than those of the Central Plains, and their biggest disadvantage is the slow population growth. As long as the emperor's strategic intentions were completely realized, as long as he did not aim at occupying land and was bent on destroying the living forces of the Turks. But one of the most crucial factors is that the commander of the legion must be a genius general who is good at long-distance operations. ”

Qin Kongyun was stunned for a while, and then asked, "If Brother Yang leads the troops, can you be sure of victory?" ”

Yang Zhi still has a little self-knowledge, he is more than 109,000 miles away from Huo Quzhi, Li Jing and other famous generals of the Han and Tang dynasties, and replied honestly: "I parrot and talk on paper, I have neither the ability nor the mind." If the emperor wants me to lead the army, either he is crazy or I am crazy. ”

…… Emperor? Emperor! As soon as Yang Zhi's mind moved, Xu Wenhan forced Qin Kongyun to look at him and said coldly: "Childe, I'm afraid today's words are not what you want to ask Brother Yang, right?" ”

Qin Kongyun hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth helplessly and said, "I knew that I couldn't hide it at all." Let me make it clear, my questioning today was based on the emperor's secret order. Mr. Yang and Brother Yang are not the Qin family, but the current emperor! ”
