In the past few days, there are a lot of people who have come to visit Li Xiao, and after talking nonsense, they will always lead the topic to women. Generally speaking, at this time, they will praise how beautiful their daughters or granddaughters are, but they lack a good match. What else do you say if you can't watch your beloved daughter marry a good family, you won't be blind to death.

As for the standard of a beloved, Li Xiao is the best template.

Even Li Xiao, who has a slower head turn, understands that people are here to find her daughter-in-law's house. Monogamy is the worst system and needs to be severely spurned. As the commander of the million-dollar Liao army, how can the three wives and four concubines look majestic.

As long as Li Xiao nods, he will send people in half a day, and it doesn't matter if there is a bride price or not. can be a concubine for the handsome, and there must be smoke billowing on the ancestral grave. If Li Xiao wants to marry a little wife, the backyard is already overcrowded.

However, Luohua deliberately flowed ruthlessly, and Li Xiao didn't think about it at all. Having too many wives is definitely a troublesome thing, and only men who have really experienced women know how troublesome women really are.

The red flag at home does not fall, and the colorful flags flutter outside, this is the most comfortable state for Li Xiao. It's good to have a hostess at home, at least it's quiet in the backyard.

I never dreamed that the means of fettling the Japanese country not to develop industry would have such an effect. Li Xiao, who had no choice but to go out to inspect in the winter, to avoid the surging wave of courtship. There's no way, they are all the daughters of other people's families, even if the unknown media is marrying, at least they must have the name of a concubine. If you buy a house and raise it, it's not suitable.

No one would want to, their daughters followed Li Xiao without a name or a point, and their identities were not allowed.

The location of the inspection, Li Xiao, pondered it very carefully, and the north was forgotten. This year, the temperature has cooled earlier than usual, and it is freezing and snowy everywhere, so if you don't want to see the ice lanterns, don't wander around the north.

Gangnam ......! What's more, the last time I had a cold in Jiangnan, I almost died.

On that kind of day when the humidity is extremely high and the house is colder than outside, Li Xiao has a headache when he thinks about it. For the sake of my life, I still don't want to go to Jiangnan to find it.

If you can't go to Jiangnan, Hainan is good.

There is plenty of sunshine and the temperature is perfect during this month. For example, today Yahaijiao is not a tourist area, and there are not so many tourists. There is Li Xiu's villa on Wuzhizhou Island, and no one will disturb you when you live on it for a few days.

The most important thing is to get some beautiful women, and let's have a feast in that good place. The name of Haitian Feast is very good, and Li Xiao is not ready to change it.

I discussed it with Sun Chengzong, and the reason, of course, was to inspect the ship repair yard and port construction in Hainan. This was the last important supply point before the Ming maritime merchants and fleet left the Ming Dynasty. After that, it will enter the vast South China Sea, where the imperial court has invested a lot of money.

The reason is very good, and the old fox also thinks that so much money is invested in Hainan, and it is better to have a big man take a look. It was completely left to the magistrate, and he was still not at ease.

Tokugawa Chihime really wanted to go to Xinjiapo, and Li Xiu's wife, Miss Zheng, often wrote to Xinjiapo and praised Xinjiapo as a flower. Li Xiao immediately agreed to her travel plan, of course, because of his busy official business, Li Xiao was not ready to go to Xinjiapo.

If possible, Li Xiao will maintain the most appropriate distance from the equator. Li Xiao, who was born in Liaodong, is far more sensitive to heat than cold. That kind of blazing sun is like fire, thinking about Li Xiao makes me feel painful.

Just go, the whole family goes. When Li Xiao didn't want to come back, a woman he didn't know was stuffed into the bed by Tokugawa Chihime. In these years, this practice can be counted as a virtue.

After all, Lao Tzu is handsome, and if he wants to be a bitch, he must also set up a memorial arch.

The whole family cleaned up, and Li Xiao took the lead. Tokugawa Chihime boarded the special train with a group of minions, and this time she came out to play prestige. Guards were stationed along the streets, and all vantage points were monitored by armed soldiers.

At the front were eighteen pure white war horses, and on the horse sat knights dressed in the winter clothes of the Liao army. Everyone wore a big red cloak, a large eight-grain rifle stuck in the pouch around the horse's neck, and a box cannon stuck in his waist.

In the middle is a long carriage, a horse pulling the cart and a pure black war horse. The horse's mane is combed into a bun by a careful maid, and the rope that ties the horse is screwed together with black and white leather ropes, which looks very modern.

All accessories can be made of gold instead of copper, and a bright yellow tassel hangs from the black lacquered wood roof, and silver bells hang from the four corners. If it weren't for the sound of the golden bell being too ugly, Tokugawa Chiki would have hung up the golden bell a long time ago. The slight difference is that Tokugawa Chihime's car is hung with paper cranes and wind chimes, which can be regarded as having a bit of a Japanese style.

In the end, there were still eighteen horses, on which tall knights dressed like the leading troops. The whole team didn't look too many, but the Tianjin Garrison dispatched tens of thousands of people for this guard mission.

Along the Haihe River, there are soldiers every half a meter. The human wall isolates the lively people from a hundred meters away, and the entire city of Tianjin is actually under martial law along the Haihe River. The masses who held red flags and braved the cold wind were actually factory workers and people from the yamen.

With Li Yongfang, Li Xiao's ear report god, Li Xiao knows this kind of thing very clearly. The wind of formalism finally blew into the imperial court. Perhaps, there was originally this trend in the imperial court, but it was suppressed by Li Xiao before. Hundreds of years have passed, and the enthusiasm of officials to flatter them has not changed in the slightest.

This is also something that can't be helped, and it is definitely not a matter of one or two days for Li Xiao to change.

The procession came to Tianjin Wei Wharf along the Haihe River, and Li Xiao boarded the yacht. This is a 2,500-ton luxury yacht, and this time Li Xiao will go south to Hainan under the escort of two ironclad ships.

In fact, you can get to your destination faster by taking an airship, but Li Xiao thought of the huge noise and mechanical tremor of the airship, so he dispelled this idea. Although the sea in winter is not much to see, it is better than suffering that sin.

This route was only taken by Li Xiao a few months ago. If he knew that the benefits to the Japanese people would cause such consequences, Li Xiao would definitely stay in Hainan for the New Year and then come back.

The only people in the court who understood Li Xiao's intentions were Sun Chengzong and Zhang Huangyan. The cultivation of a nation's national character is absolutely related to the environment. The ghost place of the Wa country lacks everything except volcanoes and earthquakes.

It's easy to grow some food, and it's hard to feed yourself. If you can't produce it yourself, you can only rob it. From the beginning of the Tang Dynasty to the Ming Dynasty, the pirates of the Wa Kingdom on the sea have not been broken. There are even professional pirate families like the Shimazu family and the Mori family!

The cruel environment has made the Japanese people develop a brave and fierce character.

Li Xiao's method is much better, after subduing them. Give them some trade surpluses so that they can get by. As long as life is good, those who are willing to carry knives and cut people all day long are mentally ill.

The key is to prevent the Japanese state from forming a complete industrial system, and to keep it at the most basic level of industry. Small handicraft workshops require a large number of people, and Li Xiao is almost certain that, according to the character of the Japanese people, the children are the most qualified to enter the workshop.

As long as the children enter the workshop, they do not have time to learn. Without time to study, it is impossible for a nation to progress. These are all interlocking things, although there is a gap between Li Xiao's imagination, everyone can only count to a hundred, but it is not far away.

A nation without culture can only struggle at the bottom.

In comparison, the Mongols were much better. The speed at which they lost their ancestors' bravery was simply surprising to Li Xiao. This time, the unlucky and bald led the team to fight with Li Hu, and the tall and strong Mongolian soldiers were actually no match for the Gurkha soldiers. It was repeatedly wiped out by regiments at the company and platoon level, and because of the huge losses, Li Hu had to withdraw two Mongolian regiments from the battle.

The poor record made Li Xiao very suspicious that these people were still not the descendants of Genghis Khan. The Mongolian iron cavalry that swept across the Eurasian continent disappeared so quickly. It's only been more than 300 years!

It has to be said that after the loss of the iron-blooded spirit, the Mongols became more and more able to sing and dance. Among the people who perform in the major theaters in the capital, there are almost thousands of Mongolians who sing and dance. Belong to the most popular group of ethnic minorities among Han Chinese!

Lao Wei from the Western Regions is not very popular, these guys have melon skin hats on their heads, and they speak stiff Chinese with a pout. Since they wandered to the capital of Daming, there was immediately a craze for kebabs and buns.

Countless people are attracted by their traditional cuisine, but also admire their way of holding money bags with tweezers.

When the ship arrived in Qingdao to replenish supplies, Li Xiao took Li Lin to inspect the garrison there.

The Han nation is destined to shed blood for its hegemony, and there is nothing in the world that wants to benefit without paying the price. If there are still people saying that money can be used to buy other people's lives, Li Xiao will cut off his head as soon as possible.

Scholars mislead the country!

"Daddy! They all salute you. Li Lin followed Li Xiao to the high platform, and when he saw thousands of people looking up below, he pulled his father's clothes in some fear.

"They salute me because I am their commander." Li Xiao patted Li Lin's head and encouraged the little guy. As his own son, it's not okay to be intimidated by this small scene.

You can't ask too much of your child, and being watched by thousands of pairs of eyes is very stressful. When Li Xiao was watched by so many people for the first time, he even felt that his legs were a little weak, and his eyes didn't know where to look. The fact that his son could perform on stage for the first time has surprised Li Xiao.

"Does anyone call me a young marshal because I am your son?"

"That's right! Because you are my son, they call you young marshal. But I hope that one day when they see me, they will say look, it's Li Lin's father. Your third uncle almost dried up his blood for this sentence. Your second uncle is still floating on the sea for such a sentence. Your fourth uncle has traveled all over Guanzhong and Shuzhong for such a sentence.

Son! You have to pay a lot for such a sentence. Are you afraid? ”

"Don't be afraid! One day I want everyone to know the name Li Lin, not because my father is handsome, but because I am Li Lin. ”

"Good! Be ambitious! ”

Walked up to the high platform and patted the microphone with his hand. There was a sound of "knock" and "knock" from the microphone, and the soldiers below began to applaud.

Li Xiao glanced at the soldiers below, facing a group of young faces, they looked at Li Xiao with extremely enthusiastic eyes: "Soldiers! You come from among millions of people, and you are the children of the people of the Ming Dynasty!

When there were only about 100 of us, I told myself. I want to take these people to sweep away all the injustices of the Ming Dynasty, and then take the Ming Dynasty to the top of the world. The Liao army will become one and the only force of the Ming Dynasty. You are the latest blood of this force. You will be on the battlefield in the future with the glory and riches you have always dreamed of. ”

"Wow!" The soldiers in the audience began to applaud excitedly.

"When I raised the army, the Ming country was weak, the bureaucrats were intrigued, and the soldiers were hungry. My home was slaughtered by the Houjin Tartars. In the whole village, there were a few of my brothers alive.

At that time, we Han people were slaughtered like pigs and dogs. The people want to live is an extravagant hope, Tieling City is broken, and the beams of the house are full of hanged people. The city of Liaoyang was broken, and all the Han people in the city became slaves, and they were left to the Jurchen Tartars to take what they wanted.

You are very young, and the days of affliction are far away from you. But they knew how vicious the Tartars were, how vicious the Mongols were, and how vicious the thieves were.

Now, they have been swept away by your predecessors. The Tartars farmed and herded sheep for us in Liaodong, the Mongols raised horses and sheep for us on the grassland, Li Zicheng, Zhang Xianzhong and those thieves, the bones no longer knew where they went.

These are the merits of your ancestors, and these are your goals.

Do you want to lie on the merits of your ancestors and decay, or are you willing to use your youth and blood to lay a great territory for the motherland and our Han nation. Soldiers, are you willing to trade your lives for supreme glory? ”

"Yes! Willing! "Countless people raised their fists and shouted like madmen."

"There are many veterans among you who have faced life and death, and perhaps some of you don't like them. Always think they are too mean, too harsh.

They are the ones who have come down from the battlefield, and they know what kind of training can protect your lives. Now if you shed a pound of sweat, you will shed a pound less blood on the battlefield.

Don't blame them for beating you up, because they're teaching you the skills to stay alive. In the future you may fight in an unfamiliar place, and they teach you skills that will not only enable you to win battles, but also to survive.

Soldiers! It's the happiest thing to live and enjoy the honor!

The Emperor and Queen of Heaven are forever! The land of China is forever! I will always be there! ”

"The Emperor and Queen Earth are forever! The land of China is forever! I will always be there! Everyone shouted with their hands raised, their eyes bloodshot and their faces flushed.
