Chapter 730: Peak Geometry
The young soldiers at the beginning have sent four or five batches to Liaodong in batches in the past ten years, and they have learned to read and write, learn the art of war, and learn to survive on the battlefield where swords, swords, and shadows are full of flesh and blood.
In the past ten years, Qin Kan asked himself how little he had given them, and when he saw Song Jie today, and saw the unpretentious grateful look in his eyes, Qin Kan felt a sudden sigh of emotion in his heart.
So little giving, but in exchange for their lives to repay, human nature is kind after all, a little favor can be remembered for a lifetime, but unfortunately, good human nature can only appear at the bottom of this society, the higher the status of people, the dirtier people's hearts, no matter how much favor to others, in exchange for suspicion and conspiracy.
Looking at Song Jie's immature face and the long healed scar at the corner of his eye, you can imagine how he rubbed shoulders with death when he was in Liaodong.
Qin Kan's smile was filled with endless emotion: "Song Jie, I remember when you followed me to guard in front of the horse, you were just a teenager at that time, ten years have passed, you have aged a lot, you look like you are in your thirties, you have suffered all these years......"
Song Jie choked up and said: "Grandpa was picked out from the camp camp back then, gave us food and clothes, without the favor of Grandpa, the last general and his brothers may have already turned into a handful of loess, it is our duty to fight for my grandfather, how dare the last general speak hard." ”
"It's not for me to fight on the battlefield, it's for the country."
Qin Kan had to correct.
Song Jie grinned: "The last general has read a lot over the years, but he is a little confused by the word 'loyalty', and he keeps saying that he is loyal to the country." But when we had no food or clothes, what did the country do to me? The last general and the brothers are of the same mind. Whoever gives us food is our reborn parents, and as for serving the country or something, it is enough to use it as a slogan and shout twice. ”
Qin Kan smiled, although these young soldiers have grown up and gone through countless ups and downs, they still have the stubborn and stubborn temper of young people in their bones, like donkeys.
recognized Li'er and didn't look back.
After greeting Song Jie with a few words about the life in the military camp and the situation outside the customs, Qin Kan looked whole and got to the point.
"Ye Jinquan sent you to Jingshi, what important things do you have to say?"
Song Jie subconsciously turned his head to look at the closed door, and saw Ding Shun and Li Er standing outside the door with a knife, and finally relieved himself, and lowered his voice and said, "Governor Ye is ordered by the cabinet. Led 50,000 troops from the eastern border of Liaodong to enter the Yongguan Pass and garrisoned the Juyong Pass......"
Qin Kan was puzzled: "The order given to him by the cabinet is to lead troops into Beijing to take over the defense of Gyeonggi, what does it mean that he stationed the border army at Juyong Pass?" ”
Song Jie opened his mouth, originally planning to tell Du Yan about riding out of the pass alone to meet Ye Jinquan, but when he thought of Du Yan's advice before leaving, he finally didn't say it.
only said: "Governor Ye said, Your Majesty is drowning in a coma, the situation in Beijing is treacherous, the situation in the court is unpredictable, and it is not trivial for 50,000 border troops to enter Beijing." Hence ......"
Qin Kan frowned and interrupted him: "Don't tell me these nonsense, just get to the point." ”
Song Jie froze for a moment.
said: "Grandpa forgive the sin, Governor Ye said...... In the Spring and Autumn Period, Chuzhuang King Chen Bing in Luoshui, Zhou Tianzi sent a messenger to comfort the army, Chuzhuang King asked: "After Yu ruled the water, built nine tripods and passed on the third generation of Xia Shang, I don't know its peak geometry', now Governor Ye Chen Bing in Juyong Pass, sent to Beijing to see the grandfather, Governor Ye wants to ask the grandfather, the Ming Dynasty's weight, the grandfather can be interested in asking? ”
Qin Kan was shocked, and his eyes widened to look at Song Jie.
Song Jie stood respectfully, not sad or happy, and his expression even revealed a harmless and honest temperament.
Qin Kan was silent for a long time, and said slowly: "This sentence, is it really Ye Jinquan who said it?" ”
Song Jie said respectfully: "The last general is Governor Ye's secret envoy, and every word he says is Governor Ye's original words. ”
"So, after Ye Jinquan entered the customs, he was stationed in the camp and stopped moving forward, just to ask my attitude first?"
"Yes."
Qin Kan sneered: "Do I know Ye Jinquan very well?" It's just that he was promoted to the position of the governor of Liaodong, why did he help me win the championship? ”
Song Jie looked at him without fear, and said word by word: "Governor Ye was born in the Guogong Mansion, and he will always be stamped with the mark of the Guogong Mansion, has Grandpa forgotten Governor Ye's original intention to defect to you?" Governor Ye was originally the deputy of the Ningxia border army, only because he couldn't see the brother-in-law of Shangguan slaughtering innocent civilians, so he killed him in anger, and since then he has been incognito and lived among the people, he has long hated this world, for more than ten years, Governor Ye has been working hard in Liaodong, and he does not dare to slack off, these are all for the sake of the grandfather......"
Qin Kan's smile was even colder: "For me? The training is for me, the killing of the enemy is for me, is it also for me if he wants to rebel? ”
Song Jie said heavily: "Grandpa once said a sentence when he ordered Governor Ye to be the deputy commander of Liaodong, have you forgotten?" ”
"What?"
"You say, 'Do a good job of running Liaodong, Liaodong is not only the Ming Dynasty, but in the next few years, it will also be my Qin Kan's!' ”
Qin Kan's body shook violently.
Song Jie continued: "Your Majesty is drowning, the situation is treacherous, seeing that the new monarch is about to ascend the throne, they all say that once the son of heaven is a courtier, will the grandfather's holy family continue all these years after the new monarch ascends the throne?" Maybe Grandpa doesn't care about personal honor and disgrace, but Grandpa, the ambition you have done your best to stretch over the years, and the world that has gradually changed by exhausting countless financial, material and human resources, after the new monarch ascended the throne, the government was abolished because of people, these things you have changed over the years, will it still exist? Will it become a castle in the sky, and it will fall in an instant? If so, what is the significance of what you have done over the years? ”
Qin Kan stared at Song Jie, and suddenly felt very unfamiliar.
"What Ye Jinquan meant?"
Song Jie scratched his head shyly and said with a smile: "Yes, the last general can't say so many big truths, it's all what Governor Ye said to the last general before leaving." ”
Qin Kan suddenly changed the topic and said, "In the past ten years, I have sent many batches of young soldiers to Liaodong, what position do you hold in the Liaodong border army now?" ”
Song Jie puffed up his chest and said with a proud expression: "We didn't embarrass my grandfather, half of the brothers sent to Liaodong have died on the battlefield, none of them are of a bad breed, except for the disabled and retired to Liaoyang, the rest are all promoted because of their military exploits, such as the last general, who has been ranked among the outpost generals, and there are a few guys who kill the Tartars who don't want to die have been promoted to the commander of the capital, leading an army to gallop through Liaodong, and the most inferior has also become a thousand households, among the hundreds of border army generals in Liaodong, most of them are served by our brothers, and Governor Ye governs the border army of Liaodong, The most relied on is also our old brothers. ”
Qin Kan nodded and muttered: "No wonder Ye Jinquan has such confidence, it turns out that the Liaodong Border Army has almost become Ye Jinquan's private soldiers......
Song Jie's ears were sharp, and he hurriedly corrected: "It's the grandfather's private soldier, Governor Ye said that he was also a servant of the Guogong Mansion." ”
