"My Majesty, the Governor, also knows that others call me a Governor for his former fame, but in fact he doesn't have much real power, and he can't represent the whole of Montenegro. Mo Cong said, "As for when the generals such as Commander Fang will be released, I think this time the Black Mountain Army did not embarrass the generals of the left and right guards and the avant-garde Northwest Army, and naturally it will not embarrass the rearguard Commander Fang to lead them." Judging from the results of the Montenegrin army's handling of many things, they only regard Montenegro as a place to settle down rather than a springboard to subvert the Swiss country, otherwise hundreds of thousands of Swiss elites are trapped in Montenegro, and they can take this opportunity to do a lot of things, instead of peacefully resolving it and letting the tiger return to the mountain like now. Therefore, in the future, Montenegro is a place where a group of old imperial courts live, and in essence, it is still the Montenegro of the Rui Kingdom or the Montenegro of the imperial court, which is no different from before. ”

"If that's the case, I'll be relieved. Hang Xiao thought about it and nodded, feeling that many of the things Gao Lingfei and the others did were indeed like what Mo Cong said, they just wanted to settle down in Montenegro instead of doing anything in Ruiguo, plus there was an immortal factor in it, so there must not be any big mess. "But there are some things that have to be considered, such a large part of Montenegro is said to be occupied if it is occupied, and if it is said that if it does not pay grain and tribute, it will not pay grain and tribute, and other places have followed suit when they see this situation, so the country of Rui is not chaotic, so there are many things that you, the governor, still have to mediate from it, and strive to maintain both the current status quo and the previous situation. He thought for a moment, took a step back, and said.

"That's what I think. Montenegro is a mountainous province, the only land is not very fertile, there is not much food in a year, and the people there are generally poor, not as solid as the people in other places. As for the matter of paying grain and tribute, I will try my best to mediate, anyway, the court is not short of money now. Not to mention the money in Montenegro. Mo Cong said.

"Who told you that the court is not short of money, I am now anxious about the matter of silver every day, tearing down the east wall every day to make up for the west wall, do you think it is easy for me?" Hang Xiao saw that Mo Cong was crying poor and began to cry poor.

"I just saw Your Majesty suppressing bandits in Shuanglong Mountain for a while, and suppressing bandits in Montenegro for a while, and there are hundreds of thousands of people at every turn, so I think the court is not short of money now. If Your Majesty is really short of money, then use less troops, and the treasury will naturally not be so tight. Anyway, Montenegro is now safe, and there is no need for any army to recover, so it can save a lot of money and grain for the imperial court, more than the money and grain collected from Montenegro. Mo Cong said.

The two sides are like this, you have to talk and I have to negotiate and fight. kept talking about the tea was drunk and changed several times before a preliminary result was discussed, Mo Cong promised that Montenegro would not be chaotic, and would pay tribute to some money, food and materials if he had spare strength, and military service could also be properly considered every year, but the current Montenegrin army was not dispatched by the imperial court and did not participate in any conquest. Hang Xiao also promised that he would not send a large army to encircle or recover Montenegro, and would keep the personnel trade between Montenegro and the surrounding provinces and even the whole country unimpeded, and would not adopt a closed and encircled policy against Montenegro.

It was already late at night after the negotiation, but the five of them drank a lot of tea and didn't feel sleepy, Hang Xiao ordered the eunuch to serve wine and food. Then drinking fine wine, eating side dishes, talking about the battle situation in Montenegro a few days ago. The Montenegrin Army lured the enemy deep into the encirclement on the northern front of the eastern front, but took the initiative to attack on the southern front, and in three days, it defeated the more than 400,000 troops led by Fang Tianhao.

"Although there are many armies on the southern front, their combat effectiveness is really not very good. That is, the six battalions of the rearguard can be called the main force, and the other 400,000 local armies are at the level of catching thieves and bullying the common people, and it is really not good to fight, so of course the Montenegrin army must start from the south. As long as the six battalions of the rearguard can be separated from the battle line and eaten, the rest of the army is not to worry. The Montenegrin army basically did the same, interspersed with cutting and encirclement points to send reinforcements. The methods used are very common, and they are not really a big deal. Mo Cong said.

"It's easier said than done, the army of more than 400,000 people covers the sky and the sun is overwhelming, and it is not easy to isolate the six battalions of the rear guard from such a wide front; this must not only have sufficient intelligence support, but also have superb command ability, and all units participating in the war must carry out all kinds of tactical commands in place, and there can be no mistakes at all. You say it's not a big deal, but I think it's pretty remarkable. Hang Xiao said.

"The intelligence person in charge of Montenegro is really powerful, not to mention intelligence collection, and intelligence interference, he is also a powerful character. Yan Tao also said.

"These things may not be human factors, after all, the last time the commander of the party encountered strange things that the general had already known in advance before the other party passed on the order, maybe the immortals also played a certain role in it, otherwise it would be too incredible to get such accurate information in a short period of time. Jiang Bo also said from a professional point of view.

Several people talked about tactics and tactical intelligence for a while, and Hang Xiao accidentally saw the long knife with a gilt gilt sharkskin sheath with a ruby handle on Mo Cong's side, so he asked Mo Cong what kind of knife it was, and why he always kept the knife with him.

"This is not an ordinary knife, but a treasure knife, I have almost died under this knife twice, and this knife is also a bit fateful, so I have been with me for a while now. Mo Cong said as he drank his wine.

"This is the knife that Mo Cong seized when he killed the prince of Longguo before, and the name seems to be Mawang Knife. Lei Leopard also said with a drink.

"Then I'll have to take a good look. Hang Xiao said, took the knife, turned it over and over, looked at the ruby on the handle of the Mawang knife and the carved horse head repeatedly, and then gently pulled the knife out of the sheath, and the snowy long knife slid out of the swallow, and before it was completely unsheathed, the imperial study was already covered with cold air.

"It's a treasure knife indeed. Hang Xiao looked at the tip of the Mawang knife, felt the cold air and the breathtaking sharp feeling, and admired it again and again.

"Well, so I was able to escape death under this knife twice, and I really have to thank the gods for their blessing. Mo Cong nodded and said.

While everyone was talking, Hang Rui came in from outside and was startled when she saw Hang Xiao holding a knife.

"Why did you come here in the dark again?" As soon as Hang Xiao spoke, he felt that things were wrong, he used to often blame Hang Rui who secretly ran to the imperial study, but now Hang Rui is not looking for himself but to find Mo Cong, thinking of this Hang Xiao felt a little lost in his heart.

"I was a little worried when I saw that Mo Cong hadn't come back for so long, so I came over to take a look. Hang Rui walked up to Mo Cong and whispered.

"It's really a girl who is outgoing, why aren't you worried about worrying about your father?" Hang Xiao said unhappily while returning the knife to the sheath.

"Who said I wasn't worried, I came here to see both Mo Cong and my father. Hang Rui said with a smile, and casually took the Mawang knife in his hand.

"Well, it's not too early, it's all gone. Hang Xiao smiled and sighed, letting everyone disperse.

Mo Cong and Hang Rui went back to the princess's dormitory, Hang Rui still had palpitations when she talked about what happened just now, but Mo Cong explained the situation at that time, so that Hang Rui didn't have to worry.

In the next few days, Mo Cong and Hang Rui lived in the palace, and they looked up with Hang Xiao every day without looking down. Although Mo Cong has now become a son-in-law with Hang Xiao, he can't call out a sentence of "father", every time he calls His Majesty, he is more cordial when he sees the queen, and as Hang Rui calls his mother a few times, the queen is very excited, and she is more and more satisfied with Mo Cong's sudden concubine.

A few days later, the left guard of the Central Army had returned to the garrison one after another, and Lei Leopard was already preparing to return to the garrison to take charge of the army, Mo Cong said that let's go together, and then said goodbye to Hang Xiao and the queen with Hang Rui, and left the capital to return to Montenegro under the escort of a team of Yu Linwei. When they came, there were only five people, but when they went back, the team was huge, and the palace maids who accompanied the dowry alone could form half a squadron, and the dowry was dozens of carts lined up in a long line.
