Looking at the yard running around, and from time to time running to Jia Hui's poor baba who wanted the old father to feed the children in Sushan, Lu Guan breathed a long sigh of relief and slowly leaned on the rattan chair.

"That's nice."

"Huh? What did you say? After feeding Jia Fern a mouthful of crispy mountain, Jia Hui turned his head and looked at Lu Guan with some confusion.

"I said it's really good, there are so many children and nephews always around, in recent years, you have all started a family and a family, and you have also begun to bring your juniors to come to see me, a waste person, die in bed, die in bed, what do I have to regret in my life?" After saying that, Lu Guan took a small pu fan from the small table next to him and fanned it slowly.

In the first half of last year, Lu Guan's youngest child, Lu Cong, also graduated from Guozijian and successfully passed the imperial examination.

Although the ranking is not high, after all, he is a second-class jinshi and his identity as a red miaozheng, so he is very trusted by the emperor, so after Wan Chengxun returned to the court in the first two months, Lu Cong was sent to him to help coordinate logistics.

And Lu Guan's eldest son was an official in other places, so the huge Chengguo Mansion was suddenly left with only Lu Guan.

Jia Hui's nose was sour, but the stupidest one really didn't know what to comfort: "What are the words that most of the people are talking about, what are dead and alive, you should live a long life, watching these juniors marry wives and have children, and listening to the great-grandchildren shouting 'Old Ancestor'!" ”

"Hey, great-grandson" Lu Guan took a deep breath and spit out a long breath, his eyes full of anticipation and reluctance.

"It's impossible, it's impossible, what's the situation with the old man's body, can the old man not know? Now I just hope to live a little longer, and spend more time with these little cubs."

"Dadu Protector" Jia Hui was a little sad.

"Okay, aren't I alive and well? How old are people still red-eyed? Don't be a child again! Lu Guan scolded with a smile, slapped Jia Hui's shoulder, and clenched it hard, and wanted to shake it twice, but there was no strength in this broken body that could shake Jia Hui.

Feeling the force coming from his shoulder, Jia Hui didn't say a word, but just shook his body by himself with Lu Guan's strength

Alas. Most of the guards back then could knock over themselves with one hand.

Just as the two were chatting, Jia Ying, who was sweating profusely, trotted in front of Jia Hui and put on a pitiful look.

"Dad, I'm so hot"

"Huh?"

Jia Hui squinted his eyes and stared at the little ya-nei in front of him for a while, staring at him so much that he was about to run away, and then Jia Hui handed the crisp mountain that had almost turned into water in his hands to his eldest son.

"Na, there are not many things, they are all for you, look at some brothers and sisters, don't let them fight."

"Thank you, Dad!"

Jia Ying instantly exuded a happy breath all over her body, and then took the crisp mountain that had turned into water with a solemn face, turned around and shouted to her younger brothers and sisters, and shared it with them with the plate.

The eldest young master of the Jia family, Jia Ying is a good big brother who respects the old and loves the young, and will share any good things with his younger brothers and sisters.

With a family of cultural people. At least the second room is different from the second room with a high culture of the big house, and the children over there are all called "master" and "wife", Jia Hui doesn't like this kind of name very much, as if he has raised a litter of people. So, he chose to let his children call them "Daddy" and "Auntie" by the names of ordinary people

"Brother Ying'er's body is getting stronger and stronger." Lu looked at Jia Ying, who was obviously stronger than the second Jia Fern, and said with a smile.

Although Jia Fern is only one year older than Jia Ying, she looks very healthy alone, but as soon as the two brothers stand together, they will give people a . The feeling of the captain abusing the concubine.

Jia Ying is more than a head taller than Jia Fern.

"Well, talent, my mother and I are both tall, Brother Ying can't be shorter no matter what, maybe he will be taller than me in the end!" When it comes to his eldest son's physical talent, Jia Hui is very proud, "Moreover, this child is very pleasing to the elders, I found that no matter where I take him to play, those who are older like to feed him something to eat, especially my father, who has to feed him with a round belly." ”

As for gaining weight, what makes you fat? Can the baby's belly thing be called gaining weight? As long as a child at this age doesn't overeat and let him eat snacks indiscriminately, eating more at three meals a day is not a matter at all, and when he officially grows his body, the fat point is much stronger than the thin monkey.

Besides, Jia Ying's posture is quite reasonable in Jia Hui's opinion, and it is only a little thicker than when he was a child, and now he just gives them a medicinal bath or something, and when he grows up and starts to practice martial arts, he can't get fat even if he wants to.

Jia Hui plans to let his children practice martial arts, regardless of boys and girls. I don't want them to have all their martial arts to be world-famous, I just hope that they can have a good body and have the ability to protect themselves at the same time.

"Hehehe, if you don't say it's Xiao Yanei, you're still a polite and courteous person, such a good boy is likable everywhere

By the way, speaking of eating, I've already roasted the lamb in the kitchen, and I'll eat tonight before leaving! Obviously, Lu Guan is also one of the elders who like to feed Jia Ying the most.

"Okay, good, I think this baked sauce made by the chef at home is one of the best in Luoyang!" Jia Hui agreed without hesitation, "Hey, children, let's eat roast sheep at Grandpa Lu's house tonight!" ”

"Yay!!" The children shouted excitedly, and the fun became more and more exciting.

Lu Guan was very helpful to the children's reaction, and he raised his beloved purple clay pot with a comfortable face and took a sip. As if he remembered something, he turned his head to look at Jia Hui: "Anyway, how are things going in the Western Regions?" ”

"The Western Regions" Jia Hui smashed his mouth and organized his language, "It's not optimistic." ”

Lu Guan frowned: "Why do you say this?" ”

In Lü Guan's view, Dzungar and Timur have been neighbors for so long and are still thinking about fighting to the west, and Dzungaria's Huntaiji must not be smart, although Jia Hui has been emphasizing what kind of henchman Dzungar is, but Lü Guan only thinks he is a little stronger than Timur.

"Since Mandu Latu. Ah, after their own brother was captured by us, Dzungar quieted down and began to absorb the results of the battle, as if he didn't plan to move for a short time" Jia Hui looked at his daughters who were swinging, and said quietly.

Lu Guan nodded, the dog that can bite people doesn't bark, or Taoguang Yanghui is ready to play Boda, it is indeed necessary to be vigilant.

"And then?"

"Then there is the night harvest and embroidery on the grassland, and there are often Dzungars haunting various big tribes, and you don't need to ask to know that this is Dzungar looking for allies." Jia Hui sneered.

It's just that after the Qi Emperor unified the grassland, the tribes bordering Dzungaria were replaced by those who had enmity with Dzungaria and had a deep enmity of blood.

For them, what is the restoration of Dayuan, what is the contradiction between Hu and Han, in front of the Dzungar people, it is not a matter, and whoever wants to find out the trouble of Gar, they will go to help.

In particular, the Dzungar people have become arrogant and accustomed to it over the years, and they have offended countless people. In the early years, when the Khan Court was there, there was no use for birds, and they just wanted to take revenge and had no support, so they could only break their teeth and swallow them in their stomachs. But now, Master Qi is here to support us!

"Having said that, after all, everyone is a Mugwu, and there is always an incense love, which is more recognized than our Qi people!" Lu Guan didn't understand Jia Hui's behavior of trusting the alien race.

"That being said, they identify with the tribe from which they originate, and even more so with the identity of the Mughal people!"

The tribes on the steppe have always been like this, the Xiongnu came to call the Xiongnu, the Xianbei came to call Xianbei, the Rouran came to call Rouran, and the Turks came to call the Turks.

It seems that the entire steppe is called Turkic, but in fact, there are only nine Blue Turks such as Ashina, Ashde, Zhishi, Sunong, etc., and the rest are all small tribes that have been conquered by them and do not know how many people have conquered them.

Whatever the tribes that conquered them were called, they were called people, and some of them even survived several regimes.

Not to mention anything else, just talking about Genghis Khan's tribe, Genghis Khan's birth of the Qiyan Department is derived from the Donghu-Rouran branch, which is called the Qiyuan Department in Rouran.

Rouran-Turkic-Uighur-Khitan, until the heavenly descended to the Jith Emperor in the Qiyan Department.

Even if the Khitan is removed, the Qiyan Department can be said to be a true old minister of the Three Dynasties.

"That is, since the Mughuls, there have been no strong nomadic tribes from outside to conquer them again, otherwise, most of their tribes will change their names."

"Okay." Lu Guan was noncommittal about this, "What about that?" What is the lack of optimism? ”

Jia Hui was silent for a few breaths and sighed

"Western Regions. It's too big! ”

The strength of the Qi army is undeniable by anyone, but due to various reasons, including climate, there are only 32,000 regular soldiers stationed in the vast Western Regions

12,000 Qi troops and 4,000 Timur Guiyi guards were stationed in Ili, the headquarters of the Anxi Protectorate, a total of 16,000 people.

Troops were stationed in Tarbaha, Urumqi, Hami, Balikun, and eight cities in southern Xinjiang, of which 2,000 troops were stationed in each of the four cities in northern Xinjiang and 1,000 troops in each of the eight cities in southern Xinjiang.

It seems that there are many troops, although the number is small, but the combat strength is 50,000 regular soldiers who are not afraid of the Dzungar headquarters. However, due to the characteristics of the nomads, Dzungaria can concentrate these 50,000 people, but Daqi cannot, as soon as Daqi transfers troops, the hidden thieves in the garrison dare to rebel!

If you add the fragmentary servant army that Dzungaria has collected over the years, but the total number has exceeded 100,000, it will be even more troublesome

"Alas, in fact, in the early years of the emperor's reign, this is not called a thing." Lu Guan sighed, "Once you find out that Dzungar has bad intentions, then you still need to suffer so much?" It's been a long time since the six divisions were destroyed, but alas."

After all, it is a son of heaven and a courtier, and today's saint has a good temper, which is indeed a good thing for the courtiers, at least there is no need to be as cautious as the emperor was in power, but the saint's good temper has also affected all aspects, and the foreign policy of "regaining the international reputation of the atmosphere, being kind to neighbors, and becoming a suzerainty that can be trusted by all countries" is the most typical one.

Frankly speaking, there is nothing wrong with the emperor's wishes, and even the civil and military officials agree with it and continue to work hard in this direction.

It's just that it also brings a problem, for the use of soldiers, the dynasty has lost its former determination and initiative.

In short, before the other party makes the first move, the dynasty will definitely not make a move, at most it will be on guard in advance.

"Really. It's not cool! Jia Hui scratched the back of his head a little irritably, "If you want me to say, since Dzungaria is going to fight with Daqi sooner or later, it's better to kill them now with real swords and real guns!" ”

"Well, that's what I'm saying, don't talk nonsense when you get outside! Criticizing the national policy, you can't please even if you are a captain! ”

"Am I wrong? Sunong Turks have been overturned by the Dzungars, and the prince has taken refuge in Luoyang with his fellow affairs, if the Dzungars completely stabilize the old territory of the Turks and absorb the population, it will not be a matter of 50,000 regular soldiers! Jia Hui snorted coldly and turned his head.

"Okay, okay, you're right, I'm wrong, I shouldn't have asked you this question." Lu Guan looked helpless, it stands to reason that you should not comfort me, a dying man?

Why did I come to comfort you?

Lu Guan decided to change the topic: "Okay, okay, change the topic, change the topic, right, how is the investigation of the artillery matter?" ”

"Artillery" Jia Hui picked up his purple clay pot and slammed it as if he was angry.

"Found a clue, do you still remember Cui He and his wife?"

"Cui He?" Lu Guan thought about it carefully, "Ah, is that the one who liked to engage in sneak attacks when he was in school in the East Palace and fought with the guys, and was later taken away by Wei Rabbit?" Didn't you say that he was sent to Datong by you," as he was saying, Lu Guan paused, "You mean, you must have smuggled it from Shanxi?" ”

"Eight or nine is not far from ten!" Jia Hui put down his purple clay pot, turned sideways towards Lu Guan, and leaned over, "Langzhong Wei Chen of the Ministry of Industry Yu Hengqing Officials, do you know most of them?" ”

"Wei Chen? Is it worth remembering me as a dying man? Lu Guan smiled slightly, what cats and dogs are also worth remembering?

He didn't bother to memorize the names of people who didn't matter.

"It doesn't matter if you don't know, and I don't know either. However, the matter has been found out, and the artillery of the Luoyang Military Bureau did flow out of his hands. ”

How could Langzhong, who was just a profit-hungry worker, survive the eighteen punishments of embroidery?

The three hundred pounds of heavy flail were hung around his neck, and the embroidered clothes that were about to be executed had not yet been warmed up, and Wei Chen had already been pressed by the heavy flail to the point that his knees were so painful that feces and urine flowed together, and the snot bubbles came out crying and shouting to say tricks.

"Cut, this dog is so small?" Lu Guan's face was full of disdain.

As a military general, he despises these soft bones the most.

Jia Hui was a little speechless: "Dadu Hu, that's embroidered clothes!" How many people can survive the embroidery punishment in the country? ”

The punishment of embroidered clothes, some just listening to Tan Ji's introduction, Jia Hui felt that his scalp was numb

"Tsk, okay, he recruited it, and then what?"

"Then pull out the radish and bring out the mud, all the way from him to Datong Town!"
