In ancient China, because of the underdeveloped level of science and technology, not only is it difficult to have a child, but it is necessary to pass one pass after another, even if the child is born, it is not considered that everything is fine, but the beginning of a new pass.

This is because newborn children often have poor resistance and are prone to early death, so children should be treated carefully after birth, and every once in a while, it is equivalent to passing a threshold.

Among them, because the first month of the child's birth is the most dangerous, after all, this is the high incidence of neonatal jaundice, so in ancient China, especially among the Han people, there is a popular custom, that is, once the newborn can survive for a month, it is necessary to put a full moon wine to celebrate, celebrating that the newborn has finally passed the danger of the first month.

As the first daughter of Li Yongji and Soho, Li Yongji attaches great importance to the daughter of Nannan, and has been cared for by Li Yongji throughout the whole process as soon as she was born, and has been accompanying Soho and this eldest daughter almost most of the time.

When Nan Nan was born, she was not as lucky as her brother, but she had jaundice, which was originally normal and had to rely on the newborn to resist it herself, but Nan Nan's jaundice was somewhat serious, and it did not go back after two weeks, and the bilirubin was still too high.

In order to treat his daughter's jaundice, Li Yongji directly got a light therapy box from modern society, and gave his daughter light therapy in strict accordance with the instructions every day, and even prepared albumin injection, and finally got rid of jaundice at the end of the third week after birth.

The jaundice disappeared, and it was exactly a month old, so Li Yongji also followed the trend. A small full moon wine was held for his daughter, and only a number of high-ranking officials of the expeditionary force were invited to participate, both to pray for her daughter. I also take this opportunity to contact everyone's feelings.

Adhering to Li Yongji's usual preference, this full moon wine is also a buffet situation, that is, all kinds of delicacies are put on the table, and then everyone eats and chats casually.

In this celebration of full moon wine, Li Yongji not only took the initiative to show his daughter to everyone, but also accepted everyone's blessings and toasts. And for the first time, he gave his daughter a big name.

The eldest daughter's name is not a special name, but it is very ordinary, and her name is Li Xinxi. It means that her birth made Li Yongji feel very happy.

Not only that, but since the people who came to the banquet basically knew another layer of Li Yongji's identity, they also knew that this was a veritable princess. So after the announcement of the daimyo. Li Yongji also deliberately canonized the princess name to his daughter on the full moon wine, and the name of this princess is also not too particular, she is simply called Princess Kangle, as the name suggests, I hope she will be healthy and happy all her life.

The cheesy of the daimyo, the title of the princess is equally cheesy, if there is an old pedant here, the surface may not be very good. But in his heart, he will definitely feel disdainful, thinking that this Emperor Majesty is a straw bag. Can't come up with a good name.

However, most of the people here are from the army, even if many people have read books before, but at most they are at the level of a showman, so they feel very appetizing for this Kang Le princess, at least catchy, with obvious implications, and easy to remember. Of course, the main thing is that this is the name given by His Majesty the Emperor, their big backer, and they will support it for better or worse.

In short, because he was very happy, Li Yongji also completely put down the shelf, and did not refuse to come to toast the people who came to toast, and the wine was dry, and everyone saw that His Majesty the Emperor was so happy, and they all came to toast, and kept saying some festive scenes, of which seventy percent praised the Lord of the Kangle Palace, two percent praised His Majesty the Emperor, and the remaining one percent praised the staff officer of Sohosu.

That's right, the current Soho has not really been canonized as a mother, and is still just a military staff officer, and everyone has been together for so long, and they probably know Li Yongji's preferences, so they call Soho's military staff identity on formal occasions, this title not only will not be taboo, but also easy to gain the favor of Li Yongji and Soho, which can be said to be the most appropriate title.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, just when the full moon wine held for Princess Kang Le was about to end, Sun Xiangbing, who had just toasted with Li Yongji, suddenly received a message from a herald, and wanted to report to Li Yongji immediately, but found that the other party was talking and laughing with everyone with a red face, and suddenly became hesitant.

However, because Sun Xiangbing is a close minister of Li Yongji, his status is also high, and he is the closest to Li Yongji in his seat, and he is also the most noticeable. In addition, he had left the banquet for a while because someone came to report the news just now, so after returning to his position this time, he was immediately targeted by Li Yongji.

"What's wrong, Xiang Bing, what's wrong?" Li Yongji, whose face was slightly red, laughed, "Why did you just go out for a while, and when you came back, you were sad?" ”

"That's it." Li Hezhang, who was diagonally opposite, also blushed and coaxed, "Lord Sun has always been known for his iron-faced selflessness, and I just finally saw Lord Sun's smiling face, we are so happy, why did he go out for a while, and then he turned into a sad face?" Well, is there something unspeakable? Tell me about it, and maybe everyone can help you with your staff. ”

"Yes, Xiang Bing." Li Yongji also nodded, "You have always been steady, and you are in charge of intelligence, if it is not a big event, you will not be like this, just say anything directly...... Is there something wrong with the front? ”

"Hmm." Sun Xiangbing hugged Li Yongji, "That's right, Your Majesty, the front-line military information I just received, the situation has changed a little, and there is a little ...... Well, it's not easy to say, Weichen is thinking of waiting for another opportunity to report to His Majesty in private. ”

"It's okay, let's talk about it here." Li Yongji waved his hand, "The people here are all their own people, if it is really the front-line military situation, then there is nothing to hide." ”

"Your Majesty is right, if it is an ordinary military situation, naturally there is nothing to hide, but this information is urgent information sent by Shuo Rat." Sun Xiangbing frowned and said, "So, the matter is big, even if everyone is very reliable, but there are many people, and everyone drinks again, it is really not suitable to talk about it here." ”

"Rats?" Li Yongji really narrowed his eyes slightly when he heard this, and then nodded slowly. can be regarded as agreeing with Sun Xiangbing's statement.

Squirrel is a code name, specifically referring to a spy cell that has infiltrated the United States of America. And this spy group is Eskerst. Enfield is dominant.

Skerst. Enfield, who was originally the commander of the Ohio Russian Regiment in the United States of America, was quickly defeated by Li Yongji in the Battle of Smithland using blitzkrieg and front and rear attacks, and became a high-ranking prisoner of the expeditionary force.

In the beginning, Scester. Enfield was still quite unconvinced, and he also showed a lot of toughness. Let Li Yongji dispel the idea of persuasion and the like, who knows and doesn't know how, after a while. This guy actually recommended himself and took the initiative to ask to meet Li Yongji, and then joined the nationality of the Chinese Empire and served as a leader for the expeditionary force.

Originally, Li Yongji didn't trust him very much. After all, this is changing too quickly. Originally, he was a high-ranking military officer in the United States of America with a great future, and suddenly he was going to be a traitor and lead the way in the United States, and it was difficult for Li Yongji to understand no matter what.

However, Skerst himself soon gave an explanation, saying that he was not optimistic about the future of the United States of America, but was very eager for the future of the Chinese Empire, and that his family was not traditional American. Originally British, he didn't have much loyalty to the United States of America. There is not much pressure to change nationality.

According to Skerst, what he pursues is personal and family glory, for the country, whoever can give him greater benefits and opportunities, he will be loyal to the country, and obviously, for the time being, it is better to defect to the nascent Chinese Empire than to return to the United States of America, after all, not to mention that the United States of America is already in the twilight, even if he really goes back, with his identity as a defeated general, it is estimated that it will be difficult for the United States to have a bright future at this time.

Perhaps it was Skester's straightforwardness that moved Li Yongji, or perhaps with a dispensable mentality, Li Yongji temporarily agreed to let Skester be his adviser to provide advice and support for the expeditionary force's attack on the Federation Army's actions.

Among them, Scester did a very competent job, and gave very pertinent advice every time, including the hydrology, geography, and weather conditions near Smithland, as well as specific information on the road from Smithland to Pittsburgh and even to Philadelphia.

You know, Skerst was born in West Point, although West Point at this time was not particularly famous in the world, whether it was command or tactics, but in the field of civil work, especially in geographical surveying and mapping, it has a unique feature.

In other words, in this era, it may be difficult for officers from West Point to have great strategic and tactical geniuses, but as long as they can successfully graduate, they will definitely be masters of geography and earthwork, at least in terms of marching and building fortifications, they are not inferior to other famous military schools in the world.

What is the most important thing about going to a foreign country to fight a war? It is not the number of enemies, but the local astronomy and geography, such as local topography, hydrology, weather and other environmental factors, which can easily cause unnecessary casualties and losses to foreign troops.

At this point, if Li Yongji didn't care much about it in the past, then after the sudden cooling and snowstorm at Smithland, he thought it was so that he attached great importance to the local astronomy and geography.

You must know that although Li Yongji can get some map materials and other things from modern society, those things are dead after all, and there will definitely be some discrepancies with the actual situation, so if you want to march smoothly, especially if you want to continue to go east, you must have a knowledgeable person as a guide.

In this respect, ordinary soldiers are also acceptable, but their level of knowledge is limited, and they are far less than those of senior officers, and among them, Mr. Sckerst, who was the commander-in-chief of the Ohio Russian regiment and was born in Pittsburgh, is undoubtedly the best guide.

Mr. Scester proved to be trustworthy, at least the various geographical information he provided was correct, and it had been tested by the reconnaissance troops, and many mistakes were corrected in his own mapping.

After that, Li Yongji began to really pay attention to Skerst, and after some investigation, Li Yongji officially accepted Skerst, not only issued him with the identity certificate of the Chinese Empire, let him officially join the nationality of the Chinese Empire, but also gave Skerst a special mission, that is, to let him break into the interior of the United States of America. Do everything you can to get relevant information.

In fact, long before the Sino-US war, Li Yongji had set up a spy network in the United States of America, but at that time it was too early because of the founding of the country. Very few reliable white people can use it, so the so-called spy network is just a meaning, mainly relying on the Chinese Legation in the United States of America to be responsible.

In other words, the Chinese legation in the United States of America at that time was itself an intelligence center, and the national flag set up by the legation was actually a radio transmitting antenna. It is specially used to send the information gathered here to the rear.

However, after the Sino-American war, the legation was closed. As the personnel were escorted out of the country, the camouflaged radio equipment could no longer be used, and the backup intelligence station in Baltimore could only be used to transmit information.

Although during this period, Li Yongji sent people several times to re-enter Washington to obtain important information. But since the official start of the war between China and the United States. Washington's surveillance of Chinese has become stricter, although in order to import Chinese medicine, Chinese medicinal herb merchants are allowed to enter, but the whole process must be monitored by the Federal Intelligence Agency, except for the normal sale of medicinal materials, nothing else can be done, and even they are not allowed to go out of a specific room, not allowed to contact outsiders in private.

Due to martial law in Washington. For the sake of safety, Li Yongji also suspended his infiltration in the direction of Washington. After all, at that time, he had already begun to lead troops into New Orleans, and the two sides had reached the point of bayonet red, and Washington's intelligence was no longer too important.

However, after the armistice between China and the United States, Li Yongji began to pay attention to intelligence again, after all, from Li Yongji's standpoint, it was better for the United States of America not to continue to fight with the Southern Union at this time, and if it continued to fight, it would inevitably cause accidents, and if it was not good to reunify, it would be extremely bad.

Therefore, it is best to promote peace talks between the north and the south while Li Yongji is still in North America, and it is best to give enough benefits to the Chinese side, so that he can be completely at ease.

In this way, the role of intelligence was once again highlighted, and Li Yongji was worried about how to continue to infiltrate Washington. Enfield.

In this way, he gave Skerst Chinese nationality, which is not only a compliment to him, but also a constraint, after all, this Chinese identity not only has his personal signature and handprint, but also photos, which can be said to be conclusive evidence, once it is announced, his identity as a traitor will definitely not be able to escape.

Scestert was also a bachelor, and seemed to know his situation, and he knew that this was an opportunity for him, especially after hearing about the use and camouflage of that magical radio equipment, and he was full of confidence.

According to Scester, this kind of radio communication device that can talk without wires is small enough to disguise itself as a medicine box, and the bugging device and camera are even smaller enough to be made into a button, so it is absolutely impossible to see through it.

Since he couldn't see through it, the security was greatly increased, and at that time, Skerst's family also came to ransom him, so he took advantage of this excuse to return to the United States of America and start his spy career, and his code name is Shuo Mouse, and the direct main contact is Sun Xiangbing.

After that, Scester was quite active, and after using the radio system and obtaining the consent of Sun Xiangbing and Li Yongji, he began to continuously transmit information on the expeditionary force to Lincoln as an adviser, and gave many pertinent suggestions, in addition to wholeheartedly supporting President Lincoln's dictatorship, and soon won Lincoln's trust again.

The more trust Lincoln had in Lincoln, the more opportunities Scester had to advise Lincoln, the higher the level of meetings he could attend, and the more important the information he received over time.

Therefore, Shuo Rat is a very critical chess piece, and it must not be exposed under the current circumstances, so Sun Xiangbing said so.

Sure enough, hearing the information that it was Shuo Mouse, Li Yongji immediately woke up for three minutes, nodded, and quickly asked Shi Dakai to continue to preside over the rest of the activities, while he himself washed his face again, found a room and summoned Sun Xiangbing alone to ask for the specific reason.

When there were only two people, Li Yongji and Sun Xiangbing, Sun Xiangbing looked serious: "Shuo Rat just sent the latest information, Lincoln is crazy!" ”

"Lincoln went crazy?" Li Yongji was stunned, "What do you mean?" Could it be that the pressure is too great, and he is mentally ill? ”

"I don't know if I'm mentally ill." Sun Xiangbing shook his head, "But what Lincoln is doing, or the orders he issued, really doesn't seem like a normal person doing it, it's a big adventure, I'm afraid only a madman can do it." ”

After speaking, without waiting for Li Yongji to continue to ask, Sun Xiangbing began to take the initiative to explain the details and tell Lincoln's bald eagle plan 1510. (To be continued......)
