"Renzhi, I know that you hate the barbarians very much, but everything should be based on the overall situation, the barbarians are small land, compared to the huge empire, he is just a small disease, let the barbarians drag Su Jun, drag the Yan family, it is very important for the rise of our Kang family, when we control the overall situation, we can also defeat and eliminate them, military affairs, we must not be emotionally engaged, do you understand?"

Kang Ren insisted on having mixed feelings in his heart, bowed his head and said, "Yes, my lord, I understand." ”

"Renzhi, we are seeking the country, success is the power of the world, defeat is death and disrepute." Kang Yangyun's slightly deep voice echoed in Kang Renzhi's ears, "For this goal, there are some things that we have to do even if we don't want to. ”

"Don't worry, my lord, I will do these things as you tell me."

"Well, you have always done things steadily, I am very relieved, this matter must be remembered, no one should be allowed to seize the handle."

"Yes, my lord, I know, even if it leaks out in the future, it will be the Lu family's job, what does it have to do with our Kang family?"

At the same time, in the south of the six countries of Jinxi, in a manor by the mountains and rivers, an octagonal pavilion was built in the blue waves, a long wooden corridor connected him with the other end of the outline, above the blue waves, among the lotus leaves, the red, pink, and white lotus flowers were blooming by themselves, and occasionally a frog plunged into the water from the top of the lotus leaves, sneaked for a while, climbed up another lotus leaf, and croaked a few times.

In the willow forest in the distance, a few cicadas make noise from time to time, and occasionally birds fly in, willow flies, and the hidden guards in the willow forest can be vaguely seen. In the pavilion, a middle-aged man in brocade clothes was half-lying on a chaise longue, holding a snuffbox in his hand, and his neatly groomed long little fingernails picked up a piece of tobacco, stuffed it into the snuffbox, reached his nose, took a deep breath, and exhaled a long sigh of satisfaction.

Trist, the "vicious dog" who is famous in the Dawu Empire, is standing at the bottom at the moment, while his companion Xu Siyu is not even qualified to set foot on this pavilion, so he can only wait far away on the shore.

"Ten years of recuperation, ten years of rejuvenation, it's finally time to harvest."

The middle-aged man in brocade said in a low voice, "Sturt, the era that belongs to us is finally coming. ”

"Yes, the prince" Trist said respectfully: "The prince endures humiliation, lies on the salary and tastes the courage, ten years of planning, foresight, and finally becomes today's situation. ”

This middle-aged man in brocade is Trist's master, Su Xing.

Hearing Trist's words, Su Xing smiled slightly and said:

"The more we have to be careful, the more we don't fall short. Sturt, don't underestimate the heroes of the world, your actions in Merlot County are really impulsive, planted in the hands of a little woman, when it causes you and me to wake up, if it weren't for Su Zhongqing who was still young, the chances of you coming back alive are really small. ”

Trist's face was slightly hot, "Yes, Lord Wang, Chu Xuan, the red demon of Taidang County, is indeed a fierce opponent, and her blood-red demon queen penetrates so fast that it makes people look sideways." ”

"You know these things better than me, you should have arranged them earlier, and I don't bother to ask about these things, just do it yourself, how about Sima Zhenguo?"

Su Xing sat down leisurely, took off his boots, put a pair of white and pure feet into the water, and made a splash.

"Sima Zhenguo is old and sophisticated, not a simple person, the minister has contacted him several times, hinted several times, this person is humming haha, he just refuses to say it clearly, he is still waiting to see the form." Trist said in a deep voice.

"It's okay, let him watch a paragraph, this person will be in my palm sooner or later." Su Xing said confidently, "Taidang County form, what do you think?" ”

"The battle of Taidang County in northern Xinjiang, the overall situation has been decided, and Su Zhongqing's victory is expected."

Trist had a complicated look on his face, "In the three-year period, to pacify Northern Xinjiang, Su Zhongqing actually did it." This person is really an immortal hero, lord, this person should be a fierce enemy."

Su Xing smiled, "We don't have any forces in the northern frontier, but in the face of his rise, it's not like there's no way, Sturt, have you thought of it?" ”

"What do you mean?"

"For more than a year, I have been carefully studying this person and studying the reasons for the rise of Taidang County. Su Zhongqing, I admire him very much, for the general can be described as both wise and brave, and the world is governed by the talent of the world, if you can get this person, then my Dawu Empire will definitely prosper, so, Sturt, his battle with the Northern Xinjiang must not end before I get the Dawu Empire, let Bai Deyuan drag him down, so that he has no time to turn around and face the chaos in the Central Plains. ”

Su Xing's gaze sharpened sharply, and he spoke:

"I want a capable ruler, but I don't want to have a difficult opponent."

Trist said in a deep voice: "Please make it clear to the prince." ”

"Although the soldiers of Taidang County are brave and good at fighting, they can always have an advantage in the battle with Northern Xinjiang, but they are inseparable from the strong economic advantages of Taidang County now, we only need to make up our minds on this."

A flash of lightning flashed in Trist's mind, and he suddenly understood what Su Xing meant, "The prince is preparing to attack Su Jun's business network and economic system, so that Tai Dang and Merlot counties are in financial difficulties, and they can't go all out to fight Bai Deyuan." ”

Su Xing smiled and said:

"Su Zhongqing said a word to his subordinate senior officials, the war is fought with silver, and he wants to use silver to smash Bai Deyuan to death, then, let's make Su Zhongqing's silver less, and let him use silver to smash Bai Deyuan to death for a longer time."

"My subordinates understood." Trist looked at Su Xing in admiration.

Su Xing sighed and continued:

"Taidang County's innovation in ordnance is really surprising, you got the compound pulley bow from Taidang County, a hundred rounds of crossbows, our master craftsmen have studied it for so long, and they still can't imitate qualified things, steel wire strings, strong pressure springs, with our iron-smelting technology can't be made at all, Sturt, you have to work hard in this regard."

Trist whispered:

"Lord Wang, my subordinates have sighed and understood, Su Zhongqing's two major craftsmen, Ma Deheng and Li Yongchang, one is responsible for the development of ordnance, and the other is responsible for the cultivation of fine iron, both of them were entrusted with official positions by Su Zhongqing in Taidang County, and they were treated very preferentially, and the two of them were also desperate for Su Zhongqing, and Su Zhongqing was even more protective of these two people, and his subordinates tried several times, but they all returned in vain, but they lost a lot of manpower."

"To be able to confer a high position on the craftsmen, Su Zhongqing is eclectic in the use of talents, the opening of the six countries of the West has never been precedent, this move has advantages and disadvantages, but for the current Taidang County, it is really a good way to unite people's hearts and inspire these people to serve the dead, with these two examples here, presumably the craftsmen of the entire Dawu Empire are yearning for Taidang County."

Trist smiled: "Lord, we can do the same."

Su Xing smiled, "If I was the first to do it, it would be fine, but now, I imitate Su Zhongqing, in addition to provoking the laughing stock, it will also make the scholars look sideways, and the gains outweigh the losses, but this matter will be discussed later, if Su Zhongqing can be under my command, then everything will be solved."
