Chapter 311: Gathering Troops (2)

"You're right!" Wei Zhi patted Ling Yi on the shoulder, pulled Ling Yi to the conference table and sat down, and said: "War is not about soldiers, in the final analysis, war is about money, at the beginning of the treasury is full, and it can be consumed, after a long time, you have to scrape oil from the people's heads, and the originally slightly rich life will become poor again." Besides, no matter which side of the war is the same as the common people, many people are destined to die in the war, and how many refugees will be displaced! This is all a loss for the country, the people are innocent, they just want to live in peace, and the war will only destroy the people's homes!"

Ling Yi now understood why Wei Zhi only defended and did not attack. As a superior person, he can always think about the people, which is rare.

What he has been able to do for so many years is to strengthen the military and ensure the people's safety, and everything else is contrary to his philosophy.

Wei Zhi sighed softly: "Hey, once it will be successful, all bones will wither! This war is together, I don't know how many dead souls are homeless, what I can do now is to give advice to the emperor, but I don't know if it can be recovered?"

Ling Yi also knew that no one could control this war, and now Wei Zhi was delaying time on the one hand, and on the other hand, he was arranging the battle plan into a defensive state, and he had to return to the imperial capital, all in order to dispel the emperor's plan to use troops, even if he couldn't eliminate the use of troops, he had to control the war.

There is another point that Ling Yi did not say, Wei Zhibing is divided into three places, on the one hand, it is to defend and take care of Youzhou and Yongzhou, but in fact, it is also to contain the cavalry of the Northern Wilderness.

Contain their forces on the borders of the annexed states, so that according to the military strength of the annexed states, the war can be well controlled in a small number of areas.

The Northern Wilderness did not have too many troops to attack Youzhou, so Ling Yi went to Youzhou, just to control the border situation in Youzhou, if Youzhou was urgent, and there was a surprise attack on the side of the state, it would contain the forces of the Northern Wilderness, and Youzhou could reduce the danger.

Wei Zhi's layout, on the one hand, reduced the loss of the war, and on the other hand, controlled the situation of the two states.

Ling Yi asked a question that he had never dared to ask: "Prince, if His Majesty the Emperor insists on using troops, what will you do?"

Ling Yi's question asked the key, if Wei Zhi sent troops, then he would not be able to achieve the effect he expected, but if he did not send troops, it would be a capital crime to resist the order and not obey the order.

Wei Zhi listened to Ling Yi's words and said with a smile: "You are trying to force me to a Jedi!"

"The last general doesn't dare?" Ling Yi hurriedly denied!

"Is there anything else you don't dare?" Wei Zhi asked.

"Eh!" Ling Yi was speechless, this was not easy to answer, so he had to shut up.

Wu Liang and Wei Yinan laughed with Wei Zhi.

Wei Zhi said: "What you are asking is the crux of the question, it really comes to that point, I don't dare to resist the order, but who will win every time when the army marches and fights, right?"

Ling Yi understood what Wei Zhi meant, he wouldn't fight, if he really wanted to fight, then he wouldn't be able to fight, the emperor was far away in Qingcheng, how could he know the situation here, what if there was a supervising envoy, as long as the trick was real, who could see it?

"Oh......" Ling Yi also understood Wei Zhi's intentions, but after thinking about it, he asked, "Prince, ...... you?"

Before Ling Yi could finish asking, he was interrupted by Wei Zhi: "Don't be a prince for a day, a prince, and there are no outsiders, just call me uncle!"

"Oh, uncle, you are advocating that it is easy not to use soldiers, so our previous promise ......" Ling Yi said is a promise to kill the city of burial!

Wei Zhi smiled slightly: "I knew you were going to ask this, my intention to expand the riffraff song for you is to prepare for the future to kill the burial city." I don't need soldiers easily, but the loyal bones of the burial city are worth my use of soldiers, now is not the time, even if we use soldiers, the burial city is too far into the Northern Wilderness, we can only use strange soldiers, and your ruffian song is this strange soldier, in the future, if there are conditions, I will give you the opportunity to expand the army!"

"Can it be expanded?" Ling Yi asked in surprise, now that he has enough war horses, weapons are not a problem, the key is the source of soldiers, now when he heard it, Wei Zhi also gave him the opportunity to expand, and he was instantly overjoyed!

"You kid don't have to pretend, don't think I don't know what you're hiding, remember that I let you go, I trust you, if you do something unfavorable to the empire and the people in the future, don't blame your uncle for not talking about the front!"

"I will live up to the people and the empire, do chivalrous things, and fulfill the duty of loyalty and bravery!" Ling Yi hurriedly said, he said this is adhering to the will of his grandfather and father, although the martial arts family is in trouble, but this country and the people are not behind the scenes, and in the future, he will only target the people who shot at his family, and will not implicate others!

"Remember what you said!" Wei Zhi listened to Ling Yi's promise, let go of his heart, judging from Ling Yi's current performance, there is no doubt about his cultivation, he is absolutely superior, and his heart is also very good, and today he has shown a good overall view, in the future, he will use it well, he is a commander who protects his family and defends the country, and if he doesn't use it well, he is a big thief!

Looking at Ling Yi's expectant eyes, Wei Zhi knew that he was looking forward to expanding the army, and instantly poured a basin of cold water down: "Don't be happy too early, if you can make a contribution to this mission, I can consider expanding your troops, if you don't perform well, hehe, don't blame your uncle for not giving you a chance, I will restrict your industrial development!"

As soon as he heard this, Ling Yi instantly withered: "Uncle, that's the property that I took in those military dependents privately, and you are so restricted?"

Wei Zhi smiled lightly and said: "Don't pretend to be wronged, you can develop these things so quickly, it's not that I will take care of you in the back, do you think it's so easy? As long as you take good care of these military families, I won't target them, it's just that your Shenwu Society is not happy!"

"Okay, uncle has a lot of power, you always say it!" Ling Yi held his mouth.

Wei Zhi diverted the topic and said, "Okay, let's not talk about this issue, when the time is ripe in the future, I will give you the opportunity to expand." Let me ask you a question, if you went to the emperor to give advice, what would you say?"

When Ling Yi heard this, he scratched his head and said: "I don't dare to talk nonsense about this, I will be beheaded, you are the emperor's own brother, you always have a way, why do you still come to ask me!"

Wei Zhi had a lot of means to manipulate Ling Yi, and said to Ling Yi: "You said well, I'll give you a hundred recruitment indicators!"

Ling Yi listened to his heart and said, "This doesn't conflict with my reward for completing the task, right?"

"No conflict!" Wei Zhi shook his head and said.

Ling Yi shook his head and thought for a while, and said, "I have a little idea, but it's just a little bit close!"

Listening to Ling Yi's words, Wei Yinan on the side almost laughed, but fortunately he held back in time and didn't laugh!

Even Wu Liang, who looked elegant and uninhibited, laughed, and shook his head helplessly, the prince has met an opponent!

When Wei Zhi heard this, he also shook his head, this Ling Yi was obviously blackmailing himself: "You are going to sit on the ground and raise the price, I will add another hundred to you, if I am not satisfied, you will wait to be beaten!"

"Hey...... Thank you, Lord Prince, for expanding the army by two hundred!" Ling Yi first commanded Wei Zhi's army first, so that he could not regret it!

Looking at Wei Zhi's twitching face, Ling Yi hurriedly said: "Take the hearts of the people as your own heart, take the thoughts of the people as your own thoughts, think about the sufferings of the people, and taste the bitterness of the people!"

After finishing speaking, Wei Zhi, who was originally sitting, stood up in shock, and Wu Liang and Wei Yinan looked at Ling Yi in disbelief.

Wei Zhi said eagerly, "Can you talk about it again?"

Ling Yi looked at the appearance of the three people, not knowing what they were surprised about, and continued: "Power is a public weapon, and it is based on the people. A strong country means that the people live and work in peace and contentment, not by reckless military force, and not by fighting wars year after year.

This war is not an auspicious omen for the empire, and now we should be benevolent, show the world with benevolence and righteousness, calm the war and rest with the people, and become a prosperous generation!"

The three of them listened involuntarily, and only after Ling Yi said this, did they slowly recover!

Wei Zhi said, "Who taught you this?"

Ling Yi replied: "Haoran Academy advocates Haoran righteousness, from the heart to things, benevolence is invincible!"

"Okay, well, well, Haoran Academy has produced such a great talent as you!" Even Wu Liang, who has always boasted of being rich in learning, was amazed by Ling Yi!

"Sir, I'm just scratching the surface!" Ling Yi smirked, scratching his head, he didn't know that he could get Wu Liang's approval!

Wei Zhi seemed to be very satisfied with Ling Yi's answer, and said with a smile: "Before, I just wanted to go to His Majesty the Emperor to try to see if I could stop him from using troops in the Northern Wilderness, but now I have a greater certainty, you are indispensable!"

"I also took advantage of the business, uncle, don't regret it!" Ling Yi never forgot his power to expand the army!

Wei Zhi laughed: "I'll give you three hundred fingers, are you satisfied?"

"Hahaha, very satisfied, very satisfied!" Ling Yi smiled.

"But!" just knocked Ling Yi down from the clouds!

Ling Yi's laughter stopped abruptly, for fear that Wei Zhi would regret it.

"Don't make a fuss, now that you are going out on a mission, your expansion power, I will save it for recruitment in the spring of next year, how about it?" Wei Zhi said to Ling Yi.

"You're scaring me to death, you keep talking, can you not turn too much?" Ling Yi patted his frightened chest.

"You kid, it's none of your business, get out!" Wei Zhi kicked Ling Yi in the ass and kicked him directly out of the Chinese army's tent.

I only heard Ling Yi flying in the air and shouting, "Uncle Wei, you are unloading the mill and killing the donkey!"

With a "poof", Ling Yi fell outside the tent, at Tang Zheng's feet.

Tang Zheng looked at Ling Yi lying on the ground and asked, "Have you messed with the prince?"

Ling Yi patted his ass and clothes, got up, and said, "How dare I provoke him, he saw that I was more handsome than his son, so he couldn't get angry and kicked me!"

These words made Tang Zheng laugh, and the other guards couldn't help laughing.

"Uncle Tang, I still have important matters, so I won't be embarrassed by you, so I will leave first!"

In the tent, Wei Zhi pondered what Ling Yi said, and asked Wu Liang and Wei Yinan, "What do you think of this kid?"

Wu Liang spoke first: "I still say the same thing, talented, firm-willed, neither humble nor arrogant, and he will become a great weapon in the future! The prince wants to entrap him, this is a talent that can be used!"

Wei Yinan also agreed and said: "What the military advisor said makes sense, before entering the tent, I exchanged a few words with him, he is a rare handsome talent!"

Wei Zhi listened to the evaluation of the two, and nodded secretly, this Wu Lingyi is a leader in military or political affairs, and he will be able to protect the safety of one party if he cultivates it slowly in the future!
