After a long time, Feng Chunxue's hatred decreased sharply, and when she saw Li Kesheng, she still called her the same name as before, and called Brother Li.

"Hmm." Lu Siqiao also nodded kindly. Then his eyes were still anxiously looking into the wooden house.

I don't know how long I waited, but finally a child's cry resounded between heaven and earth, and then an old woman ran out of the wooden house, and said excitedly, "Born, a baby boy." ”

"Okay, okay, hahaha." Qiu Da was the first to laugh.

The old woman is a special mother-in-law in the mountains, full of experience, seeing Qiu Da laughing, she also laughed first, and then thought of something, and said with a bitter face, "It's just that the mother's body is very weak, and seeing that the day is getting colder and colder, I'm afraid that it is not appropriate to stay in the wooden house." ”

"Yes, yes, then, move their mother and son to the mountains. When the child is born, it is time to give him and his mother a name. Qiu Da said indifferently.

This may be what people say is that mothers are more expensive than children.

Li Kesheng, who was standing not far away, heard this, and immediately hurriedly made a deep bow in the direction of Qiu Da, "Thank you, master." ”

"That's as it should be." Qiu Dahaha smiled.

Qiao Yuntian on the side didn't say anything, and he didn't feel any discomfort. Can you risk your life to give birth to a child for Li Kesheng, can't you believe it?

Although he also sent someone to investigate the origin of Guan Zi's marriage, because time has passed, some things have long been impossible to investigate. Now that they have extended their descendants for the Li family, at this time, if he refuses, Qiu Da will definitely fight with him, Li Kesheng

I'm afraid I'll hate myself too.

Such wicked people should not do well.

It's a big deal, I will pay more attention to Guan Zi and the two in the future, it shouldn't be a big problem.

At this time, no one would have thought that in order to complete the task of finding out their details, a woman would be willing to risk her life to give birth to a child.

From this point, I have to say that Gao Taotao's ability to grasp people's hearts is so strong, there are subordinates who are willing to pay such a big sacrifice for this, and it is no wonder that such a person will become a generation of queens, and he also has a lot of fame in history.

In the wooden house, Guan Ziyu also knew from the mouth of the midwife that she was about to enter the top of the mountain. At this moment, she smiled.

After planning for so long, and paying so much effort and price, are you finally going to get in touch with the secrets of the mountain people?

Guan Zima, who slept with a smile, was very satisfied, as if all her previous efforts had not been in vain.

Time flies, more than a month has passed in a blink of an eye, and seeing that it is the New Year in a few days, Guan Ziyu has slowly adapted to everything in the mountains.

In order not to arouse the suspicion of others, Guan Ziyu has never taken the initiative to inquire about anything in the past month or so, but from the unintentional words of others, he still knows a lot of things.

For example, the bandits on this mountain are different from other bandits, they don't rob the merchants who pass by under the mountain, they just oppose the imperial court, and it seems that there is some deep hatred between the two sides.

As for what kind of hatred it is, Guan Ziyu is still unclear, but one thing is certain, that is, this is indeed an organization against the Great Song Dynasty. In the mountains, there are more than 20,000 men, women, and children together.

It's definitely a big piece of fat

Fish, Guan Ziyi thinks that her efforts have not been in vain.

She had also seen Lu Siqiao more than once on the mountain, and this woman was indeed here. Now they only need to find out their identities, and this woman has a relationship with Su Shi, then they can complete the master's task and retire.

After giving birth to a child for Li Kesheng, the relationship between the two is closer than ever, and it seems that there is nothing to talk about.

It was only when Zi Marriage had no intention of asking Li Kesheng's true identity that the other party would keep silent. The next sentence is that there are some things that you shouldn't know now, and when the time comes, it will naturally end with you informed.

The more this is the case, the more Guan Ziyu thinks that this matter is important.

Fortunately, she is not in a hurry, she is waiting, she believes that one day the truth will be revealed, and that is when she completes her task.

......

Xincheng in the north.

Su Shi returned here before January.

On a cold winter day, with the shelter of the city wall, the cold wind does not seem to be so strong.

Su Shi entered the city, and a large amount of grain also appeared in the city, and Xincheng became lively again, even more prosperous than before.

Originally, there were only about 30,000 people in Xincheng, but now, the population has exceeded 100,000, and this number is still increasing, as if Xincheng has become an important city like Zhending City.

The number of people coming and the number of people joining the army is increasing.

Of the previous 45,000 people's army, 30,000 have passed the assessment and joined other armies from the people's army.

For example, the number of Yang Wenguang's vanguard army has changed from the original 6,000 to the current one

Ten thousand.

For example, the number of black riders has also changed from about 5,000 to 8,000 now.

For example, Xu Ba's original reserve of the forbidden army has changed from 10,000 to 20,000 now.

For example, Raymond's Long Wuwei has been promoted from the original 5,000 people to the current 10,000 and so on.

Even the People's Army, after the elite was selected, the strength of the army once became more than 10,000 people, but during this time, many ordinary people joined, and the number became 50,000 again.

To say that the only thing that has not changed is the Western Army led by Di Qing.

This is not Su Shi guarding against Di Qing, or giving some unfair treatment. But Su Shi knew that Di Qing's Western Army would eventually go back, and judging from some news from the court, I am afraid that this time is not far away.

Excluding Di Qing's 40,000 horses, there are now 100,000 troops available in Su Shi's hands.

With these troops, there is naturally no problem in holding the west of the northern border, but once the alien race increases its troops, once the Mongolian cavalry reappears, these troops are still insufficient.

For this matter, Su Shi told Bao Zheng more than once that he should continue to increase the troops, and he would pay for it.

During this time, as people continued to enter Xincheng, the faith value was increasing every day, even if it was in addition to everyone's food and drink every day, there was still a lot of surplus.

But for Su Shi's proposal to expand the army, Bao Zheng has never agreed.

Without it, if they are too powerful, some old men in the court will not be able to sit still.

Even if it is an official family, they will be worried that they are too powerful, and one day they will have a tendency to become big.

Bao Zheng has his own considerations, and Su Shi can only sigh about this

。 I can't make it out of my own emptiness, and that feeling is really depressing.

If there is no one to hinder him, Su Shi is confident that he can expand more troops, and it is not impossible to recover the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun at that time.

But now, for fear of being suspected, they can only passively suppress their strength.

Su Shi laid the foundation in Xincheng, and while the army was training, the others were not idle.

Montika Banner Tribe.

Autumn chill.

Jebu retreated with 30,000 Mongol troops, but he himself was not harshly reprimanded by anyone.

Especially after the patriarch Uzhige knew that Zhebu was defeated by Su Shi, he didn't have any intention of reprimanding.

Speaking of which, this time it seems that the Mongolian people have been defeated, but in fact, the defeat is only those small tribes who want to gain benefits in the later stage.

The losses of the Kaqi tribe were not very large. On the contrary, especially in the early stage, they also gained a lot of benefits from the looting of the Liao and Song states, which made their economic strength increase day by day.

Taking advantage of the cat's winter, Uzhige called a group of people to discuss what the Kaqi tribe should do next.

After Hatu, Lakshin and others finished their views, everyone unanimously agreed with the theory of the Sushi threat.

That is to say, Su Shi is the nemesis of their Kaqi tribe, and if this person does not die one day, it is impossible for their Kaqi tribe to have the opportunity to develop and grow and go out.

If Su Shi is an old man, he can also consider staying up until the other party is old and dies, and the threat will naturally not be there at that time.

But the actual situation is that Su Shi is very young, only less than eighteen years old. Even if they die, they may not die.

such

A young man, but he has been pressed on top of their heads, it is strange to say that they can get better in Uzhig.

In order to grow stronger, they had to solve this threat, and everyone agreed that while the Western Xia and the Liao State were facing off against the Song people, they took the initiative to attack and expand their strength first.

Then the matter was put into the hands of Hatu, the elder of the clan, and Lakshin, the wise man.

Both of them are good at grasping people's hearts, and they took out the gold and silver they had plundered from Liao and Song before and gave them to some of the generals in charge of the Mo Ge Lost Division, and after promising countless benefits, they actually caused chaos within the Mo Ge Lost Clan.

The great general Zidara was killed by a surprise attack by another paid general, Bayin, and fled with the patriarch Gilgil.

Mo Ge, who had been hit hard by the rise of the Kaqi tribe, fell apart, and most of the territory fell into the hands of the Kaqi tribe.

When the heavy snow came, Jebu led 30,000 cavalry into the original city, the capital of Moge's lost troops.

The patriarch of Gifflf gained a firm foothold in Suteqi Town, west of the original city, and rerecruited the old department, but obviously, his strength had declined too quickly, and he could no longer become a climate.

The Kaqi tribe did not kill them all, but continued to use money to buy off some of Gilji's lost men. In their opinion, it is not in their interest to fight to the death with a trapped beast.

After taking the original city, the Kaqi tribe monopolized the three major cities of Natu City, Gucheng and Yuancheng.

As a result, he mastered more than half of the entire territory of Monti.

Now only the remnants of the lost tribe of Givelf's Moger and the tribe of the White Dadan remain.

Bai Dadan's development over the years is also good, and it has some strength, plus

The distance between the two sides was a little farther, and the Kaqi tribe did not mean to attack it, but took advantage of the arrival of the cold winter to begin to integrate and digest some of the territory and troops lost by Moge.
