(虢guo, second tone.) Between the two majors, the enemy is coerced, and I am pretending to be powerful. Sleepy, there is no word to believe. The upper hexagram is 'yin', and the lower hexagram is kan for water and yang.

It means that borrowing the road of one country to attack another country, and after winning, then turning back and annexing the borrowed country together, is a strategy to kill two birds with one stone, and it is also a kind of invasion 'sex' strategy. In this book, it refers to the people who have repaired the disaster for the country and the people, and have successfully obtained certain rights, which is about the joint efforts of men and women to serve the country and the people. ）

……

Two days later, Mr. Bai went to Fu 'Chun' Town and picked up his 'daughter'. Of course, he didn't have a good face for Qi Jiguang, but fortunately, Bai Ningruo didn't have another incident, and everything went smoothly.

Seeing Mr. Bai's attitude, although Qi Jiguang was sad, he also knew that there was no way to do it, anyway, the days ahead would be long, and one day Mr. Bai would forgive him, and he would also prove that his old man did not look at the wrong person with his achievements in resisting the Japanese.

After Mr. Bai returned to Luqiao Town, he immediately withdrew from the Qi family, because Qi Jiguang's acting was in place before, Bai Ningruo's reputation was not damaged, but won a lot of sympathy, and soon re-engaged with the only son of a large family surnamed Jiang in Jining Prefecture.

In this regard, it is needless to say that the loss of Mrs. Qi and Mrs. Qi is needless to say, but although the reputation of the Qi family has been damaged, fortunately, they are also relieved. On the other side, Ruchu and Qi Jiguang's hearts were steady. Hearing that Bai Ningruo had a good home, the stone in their hearts could be completely put down, but they didn't get engaged immediately, they did it for Bai Ningruo's sake, if they got engaged too quickly, it didn't show that the Bai family didn't dump the relatives.

But in any case, the biggest obstacle preventing them from being together has been lifted, but Qi Jiguang's three-year filial piety period has not expired, and he cannot get married for the time being, so the two discussed it and felt that the most important thing at present is to rectify the military affairs of coastal defense. For these, Ruchu couldn't help, so he simply went back to Jinling to accompany his father Hu Dahai.

As for Xuhai, he decided to stay to help Qi Jiguang.

First, the army officials ruled **, although Qi Jiguang had previously acted recklessly, showed indulgence in alcohol, and did not want to make progress, which has made some people relax their vigilance, but the decay of Daming coastal defense is not formed in a day and a half, it is rotten from the roots, even if it is only the rectification of Shandong coastal defense, it must be overturned and restarted, which is quite difficult to do. Xuhai is wise and scheming, familiar with the art of war, and staying by Qi Jiguang's side is an excellent help.

Second, although Ruchu had been a martial arts teacher in Weixue and was 'quite 'strong' and able to fight, she knew all about rectifying military affairs, strengthening coastal defense construction, or training troops, that is, she didn't know anything at all, and she couldn't help at all. Qi Jiguang was busy and couldn't stay by her side every day to take care of her, so he still felt that he could feel at ease by sending her home.

Thirdly, Ruchu and Xuhai had actually done a lot of 'sex' work for Qi Jiguang before, not only collecting a lot of information and intelligence that could not be put on the table, but also helping him to connect the two 'private' mine owners, so although Qi Jiguang was facing huge difficulties, after all, it was not that his eyes were 'touching' black.

When she left, it was the coldest day of the year, and the two said goodbye. Qi Jiguang rode a horse and sent her one ride after another, only to feel that she began to miss her before she went far, and she hated to be divided into two, one stayed in Haiphong for many years to show her wishes and ambitions, and the other stayed with her sweetheart, not leaving for a minute.

However, after so many tests, their relationship seems to be a lot deeper, although they are about to separate, they are very reluctant, but they no longer have that feeling of instability.

The following days were spent in each other's thoughts, as at the beginning, it was relatively calm, and Hu Dahai's father and daughter lived happily. She was committed to filial piety for the original Hu Ruchu and herself, so she was twice as good to Hu Dahai, and the two of them lived happily for a year, so happy that Hu Dahai couldn't close his mouth every day, and he was more active in preparing for moving his home and business to Shandong. Ruchu's little Zhuangzi was taken care of by Yang Xi and Hu Qi earlier, and now she is even more careful to manage it, and after calculating, she found out that she had already saved a large dowry for herself.

Compared with the peace and tranquility on Jinling's side, Qi Jiguang's side is more difficult, almost every day in the arduous struggle, the obstacles encountered are unimaginable, and the intricate personnel relations also make it difficult for him to move forward.

But he is a resolute and resolute person, and nothing can defeat him, coupled with the help of Xuhai and Zhao Sanhong, after a few months, the coastal defense is finally like a little bit. Although the army has not yet been rebuilt, and the personnel of the guard are only one-third of the normal establishment, the middle and upper officials of the guard center have been removed by him, and the staff of the guards have been left behind a lot. The lower-level soldiers were no longer enslaved by the officers, and they could still get the military salary on time, the military appearance and military discipline were greatly improved, the army's tuntian construction was also regularized, the 'spring' ploughing was no longer delayed, and the appearance of the guard station was completely renewed.

But no matter how busy he is, he writes to Ruchu every day, telling Ruchu what happened that day, as if she is by his side, and he himself will feel comforted. In the letter, he only reported good news and not bad news, with a gentle heart, he didn't want to worry as before, and hoped that she would live happily with her father at home. But he didn't know that in addition to receiving his letters, Ruchu also received Yang Xi's every day.

Yang Xi deliberately stayed in Fu 'Chun' Town as before, and what he was afraid of was that Qi Jiguang would not speak out if he had difficulties. But she just wanted to know the truth, but she didn't plan to help him. He said last time, don't treat him as a student anymore, don't treat him as a child anymore, he is a man, a man who stands up to the sky, and if there is a problem, he can solve it himself.

She thought about it afterwards, she chose to believe him and trust him, because he was a man himself and didn't need to prove it anymore.

In this way, it was not until March of the next year, and the 'spring' day finally came. From Yang Xi's letter, she learned that the affairs of the coastal defense were slowly on the track, and the imperial court had also re-appointed the mine supervisor in the local area, so she decided to go back and find a way to help the coastal defense 'get' the mining rights. Even if you can't do anything, the military wife should have family leave.

There was nothing to say all the way, and when I met, I also had a lingering warmth and beautiful scenery. After a long time, when he calmly asked about the mining rights, Qi Jiguang couldn't help but smile bitterly, "Guess, who is the mine supervisor who was sent?" ”

"It's not Grandpa An, right?" After thinking about it, Ruchu couldn't help but ask in surprise.

"You got the news?" Qi Jiguang was surprised by the prophetic foresight of the beginning.

Ruchu shook his head, "Our Ming mine supervisors are all served by eunuchs, and the eunuchs I know are only Ya Yi'an." If you ask me so, I don't guess who he will guess? ”
