Emperor Zhao Yan was bent on recovering the Central Plains and smashing the Yellow Dragon. In the second month after his accession to the throne, Zhao Yan issued an edict summoning Zhang Jun, a veteran of the main battle faction, to the court to discuss the plan of restoring the rivers and mountains.

Zhao Yan strictly rectified the rule of officials, severely punished the traitors in the officialdom, and the atmosphere of officialdom became righteous and honest, and completely eliminated the corrupt atmosphere of the Gaozong dynasty.

At this point, the army and the people were unanimous, the officers and soldiers were equal, the morale was very high, and they were ready to regain the lost territory in the Northern Expedition at any time. Kang Yue became Zhang Jun's deputy general, assisting him in preparing for the Northern Expedition.

Kang Yue has always loved soldiers like children, arranging troops every day, training soldiers, and stockpiling grain and grass. Gao Wa also brought in a batch of Mongolian horses from the steppe through her father.

It is said that although the Mongolian horse is short, it is full of endurance. The soldiers fed the horses fat and strong. Gao Wa felt sorry for Kangyue's body, and made fried rice, milk tea, and finger meat for him at home every night, this Mongolian food tastes good, nutritious, and can improve physical fitness.

She also often came to the training ground to practice horseback archery and prepare to fight on the battlefield with her husband. Le'er is also mature, both civil and military, skilled in bows and horses, especially extremely powerful.

He's ready to go into battle with his father, really

"Fight tiger brothers, go into battle father and son soldiers", prepare to recover the Central Plains, go straight to Huanglong Mansion, and realize Yue Fei's wish back then.

The entire court was united and fierce. However, one day, the Queen Mother suddenly suffered a stroke and was silent, had a high fever, and was very flustered.

The emperor knew that Kang Yue's medical skills were superb, and he hurriedly issued an edict to send Kang Yue to the palace for treatment. Kang Yue was invited to the harem, and through the suspensory vein, he was diagnosed with heat and evil trapped in the pericardium, and prescribed three Angong Niuhuang pills, and the Queen Mother recovered three days later.

Emperor Zhao Yan is a filial son, the government and the opposition know about this matter, seeing that the old mother has recovered, he happily left Kang Yue in the palace, tasted tea and played chess together, and then talked about national affairs.

Zhao Yan lamented that Yue Fei was loyal and righteous, and hoped that in the future, there would be a pillar of the country like Yue Fei to recover his homeland.

Kang Yue thanked the emperor for his grace and told the emperor his idea of being ready to go to war at any time.

He also showed the emperor how to set up the formation. It is said that in ancient times, there were ten major formations, including the one-word long snake array, the two-dragon water array, the heaven and earth three-talent array, the four-door doudi array, the five-tiger flock array, the six-ding six-jia array, the seven-star Beidou array, the eight-gate golden lock array, the nine-palace gossip array, and the ten-sided ambush array.

Kang Yue explained the various variations of each formation to the emperor in detail. After listening carefully, Zhao Yan was very happy, and he strengthened his belief in the Northern Expedition.

He rewarded Kangyue with countless treasures. After Kang Yue returned to the barracks, he distributed all the emperor's rewards and goods to the soldiers, and the soldiers respected Kang Yue more and more, trained harder, and their morale became higher and higher.

Le'er saw that her father looked very good after returning from the palace, and knew that her father's wish for the Northern Expedition was about to be fulfilled.

He and the soldiers prepared four dishes and one soup for Kang Yue's military tent in the barracks, and everyone drank wine, talked freely, and said the thoughts in their hearts.

Kang Yue encouraged everyone to train hard, sweat more in peacetime, shed less blood in wartime, and be ready to participate in the Northern Expedition to recover the Central Plains at any time.

Everyone was passionate, and the enthusiasm of the good men of the Great Song Dynasty to serve the country was completely stimulated. After eating dinner with the soldiers, Kang Yue took Le'er to inspect the barracks, and was very relieved to see that the soldiers' living conditions were very good and the dormitories were clean and tidy.

He and Le'er climbed the nearby peaks, looking to the north, that is the homeland of China, and now under the leadership of Zhao Shen, a generation of Ming Jun, there is about to have a chance to recover, the father and son are extremely excited, and they can't calm down for a long time.
