The next day, Sunan Cheng received a letter from the north in the city defense camp.

When the Beiyi people withdrew, they also took away a lot of Yuan people.

Men and women, all they took were slaves.

Su Nancheng and Fei Jiu also arranged a few to go out. Now, a few years later, all kinds of news are coming back.

Because people in the past couldn't mix well all at once, the information they got was relatively fragmented.

At least I know that after the end of the internal fighting in Beiyi in the past few years, Helian Yao finally unified their country.

One of his uncles, who had gone south with him to lead another team of soldiers and horses, had died of illness last year.

Princess Rong'an is still alive, or his eldest concubine, and there is no more news.

Su Nancheng burned the letter and sat at the table thinking about things.

Now that there are no internal problems in the Beiyi people, Helian Yao is young and young, and it is the time to be ambitious. Although the first two years were a little difficult because of the great drought, they plundered a lot of property from Dayuan, which was enough to support.

In the past two years, I am afraid that it has also eased up, and it can be said that the soldiers are strong. So will Helian Yao go south again?

There is no sign of this yet, but one day it will be necessary to go south again.

I believe that this time, he will definitely be fully prepared, at that time, will the north be able to withstand it?

The treasury is empty, corruption is serious in various places, and the food and salary in peacetime are barely enough.

It is said that it is impossible for a place as big as Dayuan to not be able to support an army. It's just that the officials are now too rich in their pockets. I can't even talk about the enclosure.

It is already a vicious circle, the more natural disasters there are, the more people cannot live, and the land is sold to the rich at a low price.

Those who have official positions and fame do not have to pay taxes. As a result, they occupied most of the land and did not pay taxes. The tax will weigh even heavier on the people who are already unsustainable.

People who could not afford to pay their taxes had to continue to sell their land......

The cycle went on and on, but in a few years, there was still so much arable land, but the taxes became less and less.

The almost destruction of the capital back then also stimulated many people, and now the people below are more and more ignorant of the importance of accumulating wealth.

Especially in the north, where people have been traumatized by the Beiyi people, those who have the ability to go south. The north was already difficult, and many people died, and now there are very few people everywhere.

In this case, if the Beiyi people come in again, once the pass is broken, the consequences will be unimaginable.

Sunan Cheng sighed and called someone in.

"Call Master Wu."

The person at the door answered, and Wu Sandeng came over after a while.

"My lord, your name is lowly?"

"Sit down and talk to me." Su Nancheng pointed to a chair and said.

"Hey." Wu Sandeng sat down and turned his head to look at Su Nancheng: "Is something wrong?"

Su Nancheng shook his head: "I received some news from the north, Beiyi has settled down, I think in a few years, maybe they will go south again."

Wu Sandeng also sighed: "Yes, this matter has been hanging in the air. It's a pity that I'm still in the mood for the draft today......

"You don't know yet, General Xiang is sick, it should be not light." Sunan Cheng Road.

General Xiang is in his fifties, which is not considered old, but he is not young in this era.

"This ...... What kind of disease, can it be cured?" Wu Sandeng was stunned.

"The lungs are not good, the cough is not light, and there was news at the beginning of the year that coughing up blood. I'm afraid it won't work." This disease is incurable today.

"If General Xiang dies, it won't be a good thing, who else can manage the Southern Army? General Xiang's son is not that material." Wu Sandeng frowned.

"It could be General Wan, and even if it wasn't, someone would protect him." General Wan is considered to be on good terms with Cheng Kanghou.

Cheng Kanghou will facilitate this.

"At that time, there will also be a change in the general of the Gyeonggi garrison, and the commander of the infantry battalion will be transferred. Deputy Commander Ji took over the post of commander. I want to call you progress to the barracks. With your qualifications, you can move it a little bit more." Sunan Cheng Road.

"This, as long as it is your command, is willing to be lowly." Wu San Lantern Road.

"Our qualifications are not enough to enter the local military management. I can't do it, but I can't do it without rights in the capital. One city defense battalion is not enough, we must have a city defense battalion, an infantry battalion, and a Yulin guard in our hands. Another siege, no matter what, can protect the lives of our own children." Sunan Cheng Road.

"What the Lord said is that I will listen to you." Wu Sandeng's heart was agitated, and he vaguely felt something.

At the moment, the emperor's draft is the most in front of me.

In May, show girls from all over the world entered Beijing one after another and agreed to live in the places arranged by the Ministry of Rites.

There are 618 show girls in the list, but the actual number will prevail.

If the place is far away, there may be some accidents on the road, such as those who are seriously ill and those who are injured will not be able to see His Majesty.

There is also the possibility of death from illness, or death due to other reasons, it is not counted.

Nowadays, bandits are frequent in various places, and just hearing that this is a woman given to the emperor's old son, some people will rob it.

So I really can't say that the actual number can be full.

Due to the large number of people entering Beijing, there are many escorts in each team of show girls, so the city defense battalion has been busy patrolling to protect the safety of the capital in the past few days.

The gates of the city must be examined in and out, lest any ill-intentioned man come in.

"I heard that there is a pair of sister flowers in Jialing Mansion, and they are said to be stunning, and they will definitely be selected."

"Really? I've heard that Taizhou Mansion is also a stunning, and it will definitely be selected."

"There is also Chu Ningcheng who said that there is a girl who is also good-looking, but I heard that there is some Beiyi blood."

"Huh? Is that okay? Isn't that a vendetta?"

"But it's beautiful."

"Hey, isn't there still an orchid in the palace?"

"That's different, Orchid is not from Beiyi."

"What do you say?" Zheng Chengye tidied up his helmet and walked over, at the gate of the East City, the people from the city defense camp were chatting.

Seeing him coming, he hurriedly stood up: "Zheng Bai team!"

"What do you say?" He waved his hand to let them relax.

A soldier explained with a smile: "We are talking about beauties from all over the world. Lao Wu said that the beauties sent by Chuning City have Beiyi blood, which ...... You can't stay, can you?"

Zheng Chengye sneered: "It's a person, as long as you look good, the sow can stay." Stand guard."

After everyone burst into laughter, they quickly stood up.

Zheng Chengye thought disdainfully, with today's virtue, he would definitely not care whether the beauty had Beiyi blood or not.

The people below dare to send it up, and the estimation also concludes this.

It's really not as good as the generation.

With such an anxious ghost emperor on the stall, the people of Dayuan are really evil.

However, it is normal for such an emperor to be looked down upon by the people below. Zheng Chengye is not new to speak like this.

Just one day before the draft began, the DPRK received the news of General Xiang's death.

It came from the south, and it was an expedited issue, but it was also four days later.
