(It's not good to divide the chapters, the two changes were sent together, more than 8,000 words.) ）

Like Emperor Song Zhi, Prime Minister Xu Minglang has little leisure these days, in fact, he is busier than the emperor, in addition to dealing with normal political affairs, the secret preparations of the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies occupy almost all of his time.

The selection of the two literati governors involves too many interests, which can make the family strength of the two families rise and improve their strength greatly.

How to balance the internal order of the sect and the power of each mountain, so that the overall interests of the civil official group can be maximized, and at the same time, there will be no existence that can threaten the status of the Xu family, there are many things to consider.

Although the affairs are complicated, Xu Minglang is painful and happy, the matter of Daizhou failed to damage the Zhao family's strength as he wished, so that his plan to weaken the largest power of the military failed, and he was depressed for a while, and then learned from the pain, Xu Minglang attributed the reason for the failure to the word "conspiracy".

There are many secrets that cannot be seen in the conspiracy, and once something goes wrong in a certain link, it will easily lead to a complete loss.

Therefore, he decided to adopt a conspiracy this time, put the matter of weakening the Zhao family, splitting the generals, and meddling in the military on the bright side, and took advantage of the unchanging profit-seeking and selfish nature of the family, so that those families who felt that it was profitable in this matter and could develop and grow their families would take the initiative to promote this matter together.

Xu Minglang himself is the head of the family, he knows the nature of the family very well, and knows how to take advantage of this.

"In the four actual combat exercises, as long as the performance of the men is not weaker than that of the generals, the literati will have an excuse to enter the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, and the children of the Zhao family are too unbearable, and many generals will have a reason to enter the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion. ”

Thinking of this, Xu Minglang walked out of the big tent and stood with his hands in his hands, looking at the direction of Cangyunding, his eyes were full of confidence and desire.

Suddenly, an official hurriedly reported: "My lord, the results of this drill have come out!"

Xu Minglang asked casually: "But Zhixun won the yellow flag?"

"No, it's not ......"

Xu Minglang sighed, "That's the son of the Sun family, who has the name of the thousand-year-old genius of the Sun family, and it is not surprising that Zhixun failed to win him." ”

"Also, it's not ......"

Xu Minglang shook his fingers, turned to look at the official, his eyes were like electricity, "This is not that, what else can it ......be?"

At this point, he stopped abruptly, feeling a bad premonition.

"It's Zhao's son, Ning, he defeated everyone and got the yellow flag!"

Hearing this, Xu Minglang chuckled in his heart, and his chest was suddenly filled with a nameless anger.

Zhao Ning? How could it be Zhao Ning! A team of more than 200 people was defeated by 30 members of the Zhao clan, the Wei clan, and the Yang clan? This is really a big joke in the world! Zhao Ning, those people are all in the Yuan Shen Realm, or are they all rice buckets in Xu Zhixun and Sun Kang?

Xu Minglang didn't say these words, he suppressed his anger and returned to the big tent, sat down and calmed down for a while, and began to think about the impact of this matter. Now that it has happened, it is useless to think about it and can only try to remedy it.

"In any case, through these exercises, Mendi and Sun and other generals have tried the possibility of cooperation, and it has been proved that in front of the fragrant bun of the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, the two sides can jointly deal with the Zhao family and promote this matter together. ”

Xu Minglang took a long breath and felt that although Zhao Ning had miraculously won this game, the situation was not too affected.

He thought about it again: "Zhao Ning wants to be a leader, the starting grade is very important, and the old man can't let him feel too good." ”

He is the head of a hundred officials and has a lot of say in these matters.

Tang Xing, the eye of the new science list, found Tanhua Zhou Junchen after learning the results of the Cangyunding drill, and said to him with a serious expression: "We have been coming to the Fuyun Mountain hunting ground for a long time, and seeing that the autumn hunt is about to end, although you and I are taken by Your Majesty, we are just accompanying the ceremony, and we have never been summoned by Your Majesty alone, and there is no opportunity to speak."

"And once you return to the capital, the palace walls are as high as clouds, with your and my official ranks, under the restrictions of the door, I don't know when I want to witness Tianyan again!

"We must do something to make Your Majesty see us and know our loyalty to Your Majesty. ”

Autumn hunting is a grand event of the family, and it has nothing to do with the common people of the poor family, Tang Xing and Zhou Junchen are both editors of the Hanlin Academy, and their positions are not related to the autumn hunting eight poles, so they will not appear here, all because they are the top three in the new department, and the emperor attaches great importance to them, so he stuffed them and Zhuang Yuanlang into his team and brought them to the ceremony.

Zhou Junchen was puzzled: "You and I have just joined the ranks, and we are still newcomers, there are many important ministers in the family here, and Your Majesty will not ask us if there is something, where is the opportunity for you and me to talk?"

Tang Xing was confident and whispered to Zhou Junchen.

After listening to Tang Xing's words, Zhou Junchen was surprised and said: "You want to help Zhao Gongzi, although he is kind to us, but he is a general, we are tantamount to betrayal by doing this, and there will be no place for civil officials to stand in the civil official sequence!"

Tang Xing sneered: "It's just that it's not allowed to be in the door." As long as we dare to show our claws to the door, in the eyes of the poor officials who have been oppressed by the door, we will become heroes, and in the heart of His Majesty, we will also become his sharp minions to balance the door!"

When Zhao Ning and the others came out of the mountains and forests, many children of the Zhao family, the Wei family, and the Yang family had already received the news and came to greet them.

Everyone praised Zhao Ning and the others without mentioning the scene, and said that Zhao Ning returned to the camp and immediately went to see Zhao Xuanji, and told the other party about the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies that he had just entered the mountains and forests.

"The imperial court wants to change the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion to the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies?" Zhao Xuanji's eyes widened like copper bells, this matter was too much to do, beyond his expectations, he hadn't heard any rumors before.

"This matter should still be in the planning stage, it is estimated that Xu Minglang only secretly told those sect masters and the Sun family, and did not put it on the table for the time being, deliberately hiding it from our Zhao family. ”

Zhao Ning said this, and carefully analyzed the situation with Zhao Xuanji, and finally said: "If you want to destroy this matter, you still need my grandfather to contact the head of the Jiangmen family and state the pros and cons to them." ”

Zhao Xuanji frowned, was silent for a long time, and sighed: "According to what you said, in the matter of the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, the Sun family and other generals have already worn the same pants as the door, and the Zhao family is on the opposite side of everyone, how can they listen to the old man's persuasion?"

Zhao Ning said: "In this exercise, when Sun Er's team was still there, the team led by Xu Zhixun preemptively attacked Sun Kang and others, violating the tacit agreement between them, reflecting the mercenary nature of the family.

"Jiangmen has been suppressed by the Men over the years, and they are very hostile, the trust between the two sides is already weak, and the four exercises have the purpose of cultivating a sense of trust between each other, exploring the possibility of cooperation in the affairs of the Governor's Office of the Five Armies, and now this weak trust has been destroyed a lot.

"If my grandfather told the Jiangmen family masters that Xu Minglang cooperated with Jiangmen, just wanted to use Jiangmen's echo to achieve the goal, and the four extra governors who came out afterwards would not be able to touch Jiangmen at all, and at most there would be a position, then the Jiangmen family masters would hesitate. ”

Zhao Xuanji thought for a while, stroked his beard and nodded: "With Jiangmen's hatred and fear of the sect over the years, coupled with the situation of this drill, it is indeed possible for the old man to convince them......

However, in the old man's opinion, in the face of the actual temptation of the position of the Grand Governor, those Jiangmen family masters may hesitate, and it is difficult to really ask them to give up. ”

Zhao Ning already has a plan for this, "As long as this matter can be delayed, after a period of time, when Sun Er takes up his post in the Governor's Mansion of the Patrol City, he will find out a large number of Beihu meticulous works, so that the government and the opposition can realize the wolf ambition of Beihu to covet Daqi, and the situation will naturally change." ”

Zhao Xuanji bowed his head slightly, and made a decision: "The old man will go to negotiate with those Jiangmen masters...... After that, when you picket Beihu Xizuo, the family will give full support, as long as Xizuo is caught, the Dadu Governor's Mansion will have a reason to intervene, give you the greatest convenience, and help you deal with all opponents!"

......

The next day, all the sons of the family who had participated in the three autumn hunting examinations gathered in the school hall to wait for the emperor to confer official ranks according to their performance.

At this time, some people were naturally happy and some were worried, everyone's expressions were different, and they were happy to talk to the people around them, such as Wei Wuxian, who was unhappy and didn't say a word with a blue face, such as Sun Kang.

Zhao Ning's performance in the autumn hunting ground made him the undisputed first person, and he was summoned to the emperor's tent, and he was fortunate to meet Tianyan again.

"A few days ago, when you successfully stood up, I rewarded you for shooting the eagle, but I didn't expect that Cangyunding drill, you won the championship again, so that you can have the heart and live up to the name of the Zhao family's genius, it seems that my eagle shooting is to the right person.

"The Zhao family is a family, and you are always relied on by the royal family, and now you intend to serve the dynasty, be a good student, and be a pillar of the country in the future, I will grant you the rank of six ranks, and I hope you will become a pillar of the wood as soon as possible!"

Song Zhi wrote the dragon flying and the phoenix danced, and personally wrote the official's farewell - this is what the officials should do, and the emperor did it himself, on the one hand, it is to show the importance of Zhao Ning, and on the other hand, it is also to remind Zhao Ning to remember that the grace comes from the top, which is similar to the emperor's re-ranking of Jinshi after the palace examination.

For such a confession, the emperor wrote a maximum of three copies.

Zhao Ning was about to bow down to thank him, but Prime Minister Xu Minglang came out of the class to start the performance, and dissuaded: "Your Majesty, in the autumn hunting over the years, the first-ranked sons of the family are only awarded the seventh grade, why did Your Majesty break the convention this time? ”

Song Zhi frowned slightly, and pondered for a moment, "The prime minister thinks it's inappropriate?"

Xu Minglang said: "Lao Chen believes that conventions cannot be easily broken, otherwise the rules will not exist, and chaos will occur." ”

Song Zhi was noncommittal, and asked the other officials in the account, "What do you think?"

In addition to Xu Minglang, the prime minister, there are only two senior officials in the account, Liu Muzhi and the secretary of the ministry, and there are no other important ministers.

Liu Muzhi and the Ministry of Shangshu naturally wouldn't have nothing to do with Xu Minglang, so they didn't say anything against it.

Just when there was silence in the tent, when Zhao Ning was greeting Xu Minglang's ancestors in his heart, a voice suddenly sounded, but it was Tang Xing who was standing at the door.

He leaned down and bowed: "Your Majesty, Weichen thinks that it is just right to grant the son of the Zhao family Ning to the rank of sixth-grade official." ”

Zhou Junchen was taken aback when he saw Tang Xing suddenly speak, but remembered the secret conversation between the two before, and hurriedly bowed down: "Weichen seconded the proposal!"

Xu Minglang and the others turned their heads when they heard the voice, and saw that the person who spoke was only taken by the emperor to watch the ceremony, and they had no chance to get close to Xinke Bangyan, and immediately reprimanded: "Presumptuous! I am waiting to discuss with Your Majesty, how can you wait to intervene, and do you have the idea of humility?"

Zhuang Yuanlang looked at Tang Xing and Zhou Junchen, at first he was stunned and surprised, but now after listening to Liu Muzhi's reprimand, his eyes were full of disdain, thinking that these two people really wanted to attract His Majesty's attention and wanted to go crazy, and they completely ignored the etiquette and humility.

He is different from Tang Xing and Zhou Junchen, as the champion, not only has a higher official quality, but also has a different status in front of people.

"Liu Qing doesn't have to be like this. Tang Xing, let me ask you, why do you think it is appropriate to teach Zhao Ning the six grades?" Song Zhi asked unhurriedly, not lightly or seriously.

Tang Xing immediately said: "Your Majesty, because this is Your Majesty's decision!"

"Gone?" Song Zhi saw that Tang Xing had nothing else to say, so he asked again.

Zhou Junchen, who was lying on the ground, had the intention of straightening up his waist to explain, but Tang Xing preemptively said: "Back to Your Majesty, it's gone." ”

What he said was concise and righteous, and Zhuang Yuanlang, who was standing motionless on the side, almost burst out laughing, and the disdain and contempt for Tang Xing in his heart became even stronger.

In his opinion, Tang Xing has the courage to attract His Majesty's attention and pat His Majesty's ass, and he is indeed bold, but his brain is a little stupid, and he has no ink on his chest.

The other party can just mention that Zhao Ning's success in standing up is a grand event that has not been seen in 60 years, making his opinion more convincing, but he didn't expect it, he was really stupid, and he was smiling and generous.

"Your Majesty......"

Xu Minglang didn't have those thoughts of Zhuang Yuanlang, he turned to Song Zhi and was about to speak again to emphasize his opinion, and settle this matter, when he heard the emperor say: "Zhao Ning's success in standing is a grand event that has not been seen in the autumn hunting ground for sixty years, plus the hunting and training are outstanding, and they should be specially rewarded, and there is no need to discuss this matter." ”

As he spoke, he handed the farewell to the old eunuch Jing Xinmo, and asked him to go out of the account to announce, and at the same time let Tang Xing and Zhou Junchen get up.

"Wechen thank Your Majesty Longen!"

Zhao Ning thanked him again, and his perception of Tang Xing was much better in his heart, and he secretly said that Yan came to the building that day and did not save him in vain.

The emperor's attitude of rejecting his suggestion so strongly made Xu Minglang's eyes change slightly, and he was surprised.

This kind of thing hasn't happened for a long time, so long that Xu Minglang can't remember for a while, when was the last time such a situation occurred.

Naturally, it took a lot of time to evaluate and announce the official ranks of hundreds of families, and it was not until dusk that they were all finalized.

After eating, when Zhou Junchen and Tang Xing walked back, they sighed and said: "When Your Majesty asked you why you wanted to give Zhao Gongzi a six-grade official body, why didn't you answer about standing up......? It's so undeserved!"

Tang Xing laughed twice, "It's right not to say it, so we are telling Your Majesty that the reason why we support Your Majesty's decision and oppose Xu Xiang's opinion is not because Zhao Gongzi deserves to be from Liupin, nor because Xu is on the contrary to this matter, just because we are unconditionally loyal to Your Majesty."

"In our eyes, all the decisions of His Majesty are right, there is no need to think, there is no need to understand, just support and implement. ”

Zhou Junchen was stunned, he didn't expect so much, "Then do you think Your Majesty understands what you mean?"

Tang Xing was full of confidence: "Of course." Otherwise, His Majesty would not have failed to give Xu Xiang a chance to speak again, and directly finalized this matter. Your Majesty is also telling us that he agrees with our actions today. ”

"Really?" Zhou Junchen was still a little skeptical.

Tang Xing smiled slightly, "Wait, Your Majesty will definitely summon us tonight." ”

When they said this, Zhuangyuan walked over from the side, and when he saw them, he laughed, "I can understand that you two want to flatter Your Majesty and show your loyalty, but you are also too explicit, too low-level, too incompetent, and shameless."

"I can't stand this kind of words and deeds, I feel disgusting, you are so unbearable, Your Majesty is wise and powerful, how can you be close to and value you because of this?"

He has already taken refuge in the door, so he spoke very politely to Tang Xing and Zhou Junchen, because of the identity of the champion, he was quite courteous, and he has always consciously set a high list of eyes and explored flowers.

"Good dogs don't get in the way. Tang Xing glanced at the champion, and he didn't have the interest to talk more with this guy he judged to be a stupid pig.

At this time, the more simple and direct the way subordinates express their loyalty, the more effective it is.

Being able to ignore one's own image and reputation and go out to express one's loyalty to oneself proves that the subordinates are loyal to themselves and their status in the minds of their subordinates is already very high.

Seeing that Tang Xing was scolding himself, Zhuang Yuanlang was immediately furious, but before he could get angry, he saw a eunuch walking straight towards them in front of him, Zhuang Yuan's heart was overjoyed, thinking that the emperor was going to summon him again, so he hurriedly greeted him, and was about to greet him, but the clinker eunuch didn't look at him and bypassed it directly.

"Tang Bangyan, Zhou Tanhua, summoned by His Majesty. ”

Hearing the voice from behind, the champion stiffened and froze there.

He didn't hear how Tang Xing and Zhou Junchen answered, only saw them follow the eunuch. From the beginning to the end, no one looked at him again.

The emperor summoned Bangyan and Tanhua in the top three, but he didn't call him the champion.

What's even more chilling is that the champion has already seen the emperor once, and he knows the eunuch, and just now the other party passed in front of him, and he didn't even say hello to him, as the closest person to the emperor, there is such behavior, which shows what the emperor thinks of him as the champion.

The champion only felt like falling into an ice cave, his hands and feet were cold, and his future was bleak.

......

Xu Minglang returned to his tent, the sky was completely dark, today's experience in front of the emperor made him not in a very good mood, but now he didn't have time to think about this, he made an appointment with the Sun family and other generals to come to him tonight to discuss the matter of the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies.

When the hour came, there were still many empty seats, and only half of the seventeen generals came, which made Xu Minglang very surprised, and waited for a pillar of incense, no new people arrived, and Xu Minglang's face gradually became ugly.

He looked at Sun Meng, who was in the first place on the right, "Sun Gong, what's going on?"

Sun Meng's face was even more gloomy than Xu Minglang, and he said coldly when he heard this: "This father would like to ask Xu Xiang, in the previous Cangyunding drill, why did the Xu family attack my Jiangmen team with the sect when the Zhao team had not been eliminated?"

Xu Minglang was stunned, he heard Xu Zhixun's report before, and he didn't take this situation too seriously, and now when he saw the heads of the Jiangmen family, they all looked at him resentfully, and when he gave a reasonable explanation, he realized the seriousness of the problem.

To be precise, it is to realize how serious the hatred and distrust of the door is from the door to the door.

"Sun Gong, everyone, this drill in Cangyunding is just a mistake for a while, the old man has already implemented the family law, if you are dissatisfied, the old man will accompany you. ”

Xu Minglang got up and made a circle, sat down again, and said: "It's just that the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies is very important, just because of a drill that didn't go well, there are so many generals who are picking on the family, isn't it too disregarding the overall situation? This is related to the interests of your family." ”

Wu Su snorted coldly: "It's about the future of the family, we naturally don't dare to be careless, but if someone just wants to use us to achieve their own goals, wait until the wood is already in the boat, and then kick me away, then it would be too underestimate us!"

Xu Minglang's heart tightened.

To be honest, he really had that idea before.

He has been pushing forward the affairs of the supervising army in the forbidden army, and the generals were also strongly opposed at first, but in the end they still failed to fight him, he despised these generals in his heart, and now since he is planning the governor's mansion of the five armies with great fanfare, how can he be willing to get only two seats?

"You're too worried, the old man promises to ......"

"Xu Xiang, I waited here today, I didn't listen to your tongue blooming lotus, no matter how much you say, it is empty, you need to set up a note, and let all the masters of the family draw a charge, and make sure that the civil officials only occupy two seats, otherwise it will ......" Wu Su snorted coldly again, and his attitude was obvious.

Xu Minglang's face changed greatly, he no longer concealed his anger, and said with his sleeves brushed: "How can there be a reason for this kind of thing, and all the masters of the family are required to draw a charge?

"Then take your leave!" Wu Su got up and left.

Not only him, but also the heads of the Jiangmen family left one after another.

In the end, only Sun Meng remained.

Xu Minglang didn't expect these generals to be so resolute and able to apologize to the other party, he thought that he had put down his body very much, "Sun Gong, this is ......"

"Seeking skin with the tiger, how can you not be cautious everywhere? Xu Xiang, what has Jiangmen been suppressed by you all these years, you should know in your heart, the hereditary marquis of the Wu family, and the Han-style military department Shangshu......

"How do you make everyone believe in you? In the actual combat exercise, the old man is good at talking, and for the sake of the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, everyone reluctantly agreed to try the possibility of cooperating with you, but what is the result?"

Sun Meng shook his head and sighed, got up and said goodbye to Xu Minglang, "In this matter, if Xu Xiang refuses to let all the heads of the family make a note, I am afraid that he can only let it go first, and then discuss it in the long run." ”

Thinking of Zhao Xuanji's words last night, Sun Meng walked very decisively.

To have the position of the governor of the capital, Jiangmen naturally wants to fight for it, but that has to be in the case of not being crossed by the mendi to cross the river and tear down the bridge, and the results of the struggle with the mendi over the years show that in the wrist of the power struggle, the jangis is not the opponent of the big turbans of the mendi.

It is impossible to seek the position of the Metropolitan Governor, and if the literati master the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, there will really be no way to survive the Jiangmen, who dares to take risks?

Watching Sun Meng leave, Xu Minglang's face turned white.

Over the years, the suppression of the gate has been smooth, and he has not experienced such a setback.

After experiencing two unpleasant things in one day, Xu Minglang felt very uncomfortable.

Two poor scholars, from the seventh-grade ants, dared to sing against themselves in front of His Majesty, and sang so resolutely, where does the authority of their prime minister exist?

Now the matter of the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies was put on hold again, and he was so angry that he wanted to kill.

"I still underestimate Jiangmen's hatred for the old man......" After a long time, Xu Minglang sighed.

......

Xiao Yan, the princess of the royal court of Beihu Tianyuan, walked in the breezy camp, admiring everywhere with the demeanor of a countryman entering the city.

When she encounters someone in official uniform, no matter how big or small the other party is, she will stop and salute and show her humility over and over again.

If someone chatted with him, she would continue to praise the courage of the young and handsome men of Daqi, emphasizing that the young heroes of the Heavenly Empire were not something that the people of Saibei could match.

In order to show the demeanor and mind of the officials of the Celestial Empire, they would often invite Xiao Yan to their big tent as a guest, and introduce the customs and people of Daqi to each other during the banquet.

Whenever Xiao Yan, the princess of Beihu, showed the eyes of a rural village girl looking at the bustling city and praised the various benefits of Daqi, the Daqi officials would feel proud and even happier, so they would say more information.

"This full of Southern Dynasty families, compared with the warriors in my clan, there are few people who can catch the eye, but Zhao Ning is indeed extraordinary. I now feel that the failure of the Daishu affair is not so difficult to accept. ”

Xiao Yan said in a low voice, "However, the Southern Dynasty is rich and prosperous, with a large land and abundant resources, a large number of people, and immeasurable property, and the national strength should not be underestimated. ”

The white-eyed old man who followed behind her sneered and said: "But the Qi people like to compete for power and profit, and the internal friction is so serious, there is no guarantee of military strength, and no matter how prosperous it is, it can't be maintained." ”

Xiao Yan also smiled, "These prosperity will eventually belong to us!"

......

"The emperor's grace is vast, now that you have the official body of the sixth grade, and you have entered the Governor's Mansion of the Patrol City, the old man will definitely be able to let you have an official position in charge, and you will be able to show your strength at that time!"

Zhao Xuanji admired Song Zhi's handwritten confession, laughed a few times, and returned it to Zhao Ning. The emperor is only responsible for setting the products for the sons of the family, and the specific official positions are recommended and arranged by the family, as long as the position is not higher than the official quality.

Zhao Xuanji was in a very good mood, not only because Zhao Ning had obtained the official rank from the sixth grade, but also because he went to talk to the Jiangmen family masters last night and got good feedback.

Zhao Ning stayed here with Zhao Xuanji for a long time and talked a lot about himself and his family.

When he came out of Zhao Xuanji's tent, it was already the middle of the moon. Zhao Ning returned to his tent, but did not enter immediately, but turned around and stopped in front of the curtain, looking up at the bright starry sky on the lonely peak of Cangyunding, the Milky Way.

The four fields are silent, all the sounds are silent, the mountain breeze on the face is mixed with the faint fragrance of the grass and trees, quietly arousing the deep sorrow in people's hearts, Zhao Ning saw the pine waves in the distance, the mountains are like fog, and he has thousands of thoughts for a while, and he feels lonely.

Time flies, years are like dreams, Zhao Ning thinks of the national war that will break out in three years, and all kinds of pictures of the bloody battlefield in the previous life come to mind, and his ears seem to hear the sound of Jin Ge Iron Horse again, and his heart is surging for a while, I don't know if he is in the past life or in this life.

The world only knows that the Hu people are a group of barbarians who have been subdued, but they don't know that there are no uncivilized savages in this world, Zhao Ning understands that the brave and light death warriors raised by the poor mountains and bad waters, once they have the blessing of civilization and wisdom, and are led by a male lord who has never met in the ages, what a terrible combat power will erupt.

Others don't know, but Zhao Ning knows that before the destruction of the Great Qi, Beihu had laid down more than the Central Plains after ten years of conquest.

They not only conquered the Western Regions to the west, but also expanded their territory tens of thousands of miles away, conquering countless countries, many of which were unheard of by the Qi people!

The distance measured by Beihu's iron hooves is even beyond the limit of Doctor Qi's imagination!

Before this, there had never been a great empire with such a wide territory and such a grand military exploit in the world!

If the Tian Yuan Imperial Court just made the grassland heroes bow down, then the Tian Yuan Empire is the nightmare of almost all the kings in the world!

The Western kings, who were conquered and intimidated by the Tian Yuan army, gave the Tian Yuan Khan the ultimate title in all fears: the whip of God!

Zhao Ning took a deep breath.

The national war between Beihu and Daqi began three years later, but Beihu's preparations for this battle have been going on for many years.

From the moment he rose in the grassland, the Beihu monarch knew that he would eventually face the Great Qi and must fight against it, and planned for it day and night.

Zhao Ning only needs to remember that before the sudden outbreak of the national war in the previous life, how many civil and military generals in the border states were assassinated, how many granaries and treasury were burned, when Beihu invaded on a large scale, how did he understand the strength of the garrisons in various parts of Daqi, how well he knew the dispatch of the army in response to the battle of Daqi, and when the millions of soldiers came to Yanping City, how many cultivators in the city echoed, and even stormed the city pass to open the city gate, he felt that this night sky was dark.

Knowing these is fortunate and unfortunate for Zhao Ning.

As the only reborn, he understood that the crisis of the shattering of mountains and rivers was imminent, and he knew very well how the struggle for power and profit and mutual tilting between the dignitaries and nobles within the Great Qi and the great families were weakening the empire.

He knows better what kind of holes Daqi's military combat system and national border defense forces have been in this storm of power struggle.

But he couldn't change the situation with a single shout.

Three years, Zhao Ning only has three years.

In the current situation, how can he reverse the general trend of the dynasty within three years, so that Daqi has the united strength to resist the large-scale invasion of Beihu, and avoid repeating the mistakes of his previous life?

Zhao Ning had no intention of sleeping, left his tent, and walked alone in the dim light of the camp.

He only has the power of the Zhao clan to use now, and more than half of the elite of the Zhao clan are in Yanmen Pass, and the current situation of the Zhao clan really can't be described well.

After getting the official position from the sixth grade, he can enter the Governor's Mansion of the Patrol City to take charge of himself, this is his chance.

Dig out the minions of Beihu hidden in Yanping City and even in the north one by one, and you have to pull up the radish and bring out the mud, take advantage of the situation to pull out the underground intelligence and various power networks operated by Beihu Xizuo, and cut off all the interest groups they have befriended, bribed, and infiltrated.

Only by first clearing the eyes and minions of Beihu in Daqi, so that Beihu no longer knows the internal situation of Daqi, so that they lose their internal response, and then rip off the tumors of Daqi itself, eliminate all the black sheep, so that the dynasty will no longer lose its national strength by internal fighting, and the forces of the government and the opposition can be twisted into a rope for the use of the country.

It's all complicated when you think about it, and it's bound to be difficult to do.

As the heir to the head of the first noble family of Great Qi, Zhao Ning had no choice but to face the difficulties and fight against the strongest heroes in the world who had never been seen before or since.

He believed he could do it.

End of this volume.

The background of the dynasty of internal and external troubles and the power struggle of the mountain are finally clearly introduced.

Start the problem with the next volume.
