Yang Xiu naturally didn't know about Guo Hao's thoughts, but even if he knew, he wouldn't care.

At this time, Guo Hao said slowly: "The transfer of five thousand people and horses, this is not a small number, it is almost impossible to leave no traces, but why is there no news at all." ”

Yang Xiu chuckled: "Yes, the transfer of five thousand people is indeed not hidden, but who should pay attention to the transfer of hundreds of people." ”

The transfer of 5,000 people and horses naturally can't be hidden from those who have intentions, but a small number of operations, coupled with intentional cover-ups, are difficult for people to discover.

Moreover, this martial arts conference is all people in the rivers and lakes, even if there is infiltration and a way for the official, but for the affairs of the army, it is a black eye.

"Hehe, they are broken into pieces, batch by batch, and for a total of more than half a month, and it is still official, it is difficult for the forces of the rivers and lakes to intervene, naturally the news is insufficient, and no one notices. ”

Guo Hao couldn't help but be silent, without any expression, but obviously agreed with this statement.

Yang Xiu's eyes drooped slightly, and he continued: "What their purpose is, no one can say, but it is certain that this transfer is very abnormal, and at this moment, what are these people secretly mobilized to do." ”

"If it were normal, at least the detective department would get the relevant news, but this time Fang Jiuting didn't have any news at all before he found those people, as for the specific matter, he also went to check it with his hands. ”

Guo Hao showed a hint of ridicule and said: "Heh, you have sold it cleanly, and the people in the detective department have also become the knife in your hand, as long as you can use it, you can use it unceremoniously." ”

Hearing this, Yang Xiu showed an innocent expression and disagreed: "I'm different, I made such a sacrifice for the sake of cooperation between us, what you said really hurts my heart."

Guo Hao ignored his expression and said directly: "If you think so, then it's okay, but this matter must be clarified, otherwise, it is like a knife hanging over the head, which may fall at any time." ”

Five thousand iron horses, Guo Hao's strength, as long as he is not trapped in one place, there will be no problem, and he can still break through.

However, although he was able to get out, his subordinates couldn't do it, and if he didn't get the news this time, if he was not careful, he would suffer heavy losses.

These people have survived many hardships in the end, and each of them is a family-like existence.

Guo Hao said again: "Is there any other news, where are these people?" ”

Yang Xiu said solemnly: "A thousand tornado cavalry battalions, four thousand fire trampling battalions, and five hundred crossbows, and twenty crossbows, all of which are enough for a small battle." ”

Even though I had been prepared for it, I was still shocked when I heard such a configuration.

These people, not only can they conduct small battles, but such troops, as well as the equipment they are equipped with, can directly attack the city.

Yang Xiu continued: "These people are all the elite of the Northern Frontier Army, not to mention that one is ten, but it will definitely not be much worse, tsk, I don't know who transferred it." ”

Yang Xiu used to be a secretary of the household department, and he was very skilled in money and grain scheduling, so he also knew some things in the army.

However, knowing is knowing, but Yang Xiu has never intervened in the matter, because this is a forbidden area, no matter how much he is trusted by the first emperor, but there are some things that must not be crossed.

The stability of the world, one is money and food, and the other is soldiers, which are the cornerstones of the empire.

And Yang Xiu, as the head of the household, should be conscious, and must not be related to the army, otherwise there are soldiers and food, and the next step is to rebel.

Rebellion, sometimes not to see whether you have the heart, but to see whether you have the ability, after all, on the side of the couch, how can you allow others to snore.

Since ancient times, there has been a clear distinction between civil and military, and in addition to the fact that the two sides do not look at each other, there is a deeper reason.

Because, the man in that seat

, I don't want to see the convergence of civil and military, that would be too dangerous.

Wenchen and military generals, these two sides are like two scales on a scale, and that person controls the weight of the two sides, does not let one side weigh or let one side light, and always maintains a balance, this is the way of the emperor.

Similarly, the civil and military generals must not be allowed to collude together, otherwise they will control the government at least and the emperor will become a puppet, or at worst they will be directly invited to their positions and replaced by someone to sit.

Therefore, the distinction between civil and military is clear, and it has been the case since ancient times.

Yang Xiu has never interfered in the border army of the northern frontier, and everything is official, so he doesn't know much about the affairs of the border army.

And this army transfer, it is definitely not simple, after all, even Fang Jiuting doesn't know, in the detective department, Fang Jiuting's position is at least within the top ten, it can be said that he is a high authority.

In the whole Northland, the detective department is alongside it, and there are only one or two people.

"Are there any other people besides these people?"

At this time, Guo Hao suddenly asked again.

Yang Xiu shook his head and said, "No, but there are still some garrisons in Benzhou, and there are also tens of thousands of horses." ”

Guo Hao nodded slowly, frowned, and said: "If you say this, maybe it's for the martial arts conference, but you may not be able to do it, it may be a kind of defense." ”

Although these horses are indeed very threatening, it is impossible to wipe out everyone in the martial arts conference.

After all, the consequences are very serious, and the rivers and lakes and the imperial court will not cause a great turmoil, since this is the case, then there should be no big problem.

Especially at this time, the Northern Yuan Dynasty is eyeing the tiger, and the south is in turmoil, if there is another conflict with the forces of the rivers and lakes of all parties, I really don't know what to say.

However, it may also be only for your own side.

There is too little information, and I just learned the news, so my mind is a little messy for a while, and I can't sort out any clues.

Yang Xiudao: "Although the number is not too many, but it should not be underestimated, the Fire Treading Battalion and the Tornado Iron Cavalry are all elite divisions in the Northland. ”

"The 36th Battalion of the Northland has eight strong brigades, among them, the Fire Treading Battalion and the Tornado Iron Cavalry are among the best, not only well-trained, but also fearless of death, which is by no means something that ordinary Jianghu people can stop. ”

"And the most important thing that makes me puzzled is that this kind of army mobilization needs to pass through the token of the Northern Military Government, and no matter what, it can't escape a person's sight. ”

Guo Hao's eyes flashed and said: "Extinguishing the wine song"

In the court, the wine extinguishing song is the marshal of the empire, the white jade pillar of the sky, stationed in the north for more than ten years, shocking the north yuan, so that it cannot go south half a step.

At that time, he commanded the army and fought a decisive battle with the Northern Yuan, destroying hundreds of thousands of his horses in a battle, which greatly damaged the latter's vitality, and has not returned to the level of that time.

It can be said that today, there is no one else who is a general.

On the rivers and lakes, the wine extinguishing song is the second warrior in the world except for the tearful pavilion.

This title was not given by others, it was the Sword Saint Tears Pavilion.

He once said that the song of extinguishing wine should be the first person under heaven and man.

This sentence spread to the rivers and lakes, and many people were not convinced, but few people were able to verify it, after all, the wine song was in a high position, and he was in charge of a place of military power, where would he fight with the people of the rivers and lakes.

However, there are also those who don't want to die, and they go directly to find the song of killing alcohol, and then there is no more, anyway, those people have never appeared again.

Among them, there are many masters of the half-step heaven and human realm.

Although many people disdain it, in the rivers and lakes, the metaphorical second master in the world is the song of extinguishing wine.

Yang Xiu continued: "That's right, Extinguishing Wine Song is in charge of the army of the Northern Frontier, if the Fire Trampling Battalion and the Tornado Iron Cavalry are transferred, they will definitely not be able to hide from him, but now they are indeed transferred. ”

This shows that he has his consent, and that if he wants to mobilize these armies in his power, he can only agree with him and give orders from someone higher. ”

Guo Hao said in a deep voice

"So, you suspect that it was the emperor's order"

Yang Xiu shook his head and said: "No, it is absolutely impossible to be Your Majesty's order, although I don't know much, but judging from the current situation and everywhere, it cannot be Your Majesty." ”

Guo Hao frowned and said, "Why?"

Yang Xiu groaned: "First, because of the current situation, now that the south is in turmoil, and it has not been long after ascending the throne, now the foundation is not stable, all eyes are on the court, and naturally there is no time to take care of the rivers and lakes." ”

The martial arts conference, although it was huge, but in the eyes of the imperial court, it was just a matter of a group of people in the rivers and lakes, and in the eyes of the princes of the court, it was not a big deal.

A group of rabble, can they still rebel, and the army will destroy them in minutes.

Because, the north is different from the south, this is the place where Dahua started its business, but it is not the situation in the south.

Back then, Dahua was beaten inch by inch, but those families in the south were directly lowered, so the control of the north was absolute.

The hundreds of thousands of troops on the border, that is not an ornament, if there is any abnormal movement, troops and horses can be dispatched in minutes to quell the rebellion.

Therefore, the warriors of the rivers and lakes, what big waves can a group of rabble set off.

And now, today we have to deal with the situation in the south, but also have to deal with the court and the princes, and even more so to relieve the victims.

This kind of thing can be handled locally, and if it is not handled well, then the person in charge will be dealt with.

Yang Xiu sighed lightly in his heart, it was precisely because he couldn't figure it out that he had a trace of worry, even if he was outside, he couldn't see the situation clearly.

Or, at some point, I've already entered the game.

"The transfer of these soldiers and horses has nothing to do with the imperial court, because, since Fang Jiuting doesn't know about it, the detective department has no news, which means that it is not the intention of the imperial court. ”

Guo Hao frowned and said, "Maybe it's deliberately not letting him know, after all, you are here." ”

Yang Xiu shook his head and said, "Then it's even more impossible, if you don't want Fang Jiuting to know, you naturally won't let him know, and if you want to guard against me, then it's even more impossible, because Fang Jiuting won't tell me about it." ”

Guo Hao nodded and said: "So according to your analysis, it is an order issued by the wine song to mobilize the border army without authorization, this kind of thing is afraid that this kind of thing is."

The words are not finished, but the meaning is self-evident.

Without the authorization of the imperial court, or even without informing the imperial court, the unauthorized mobilization of troops and horses, if this kind of crime falls on people, it is not an exaggeration to exterminate the family.

What is this kind of behavior for, is it to rebel?

And, even if there was a necessary reason, there was no news about such a random transfer of troops, which made that person think.

The army of the imperial court has become a private army, and it can be used as it pleases, and military power is imperial power, and no emperor can tolerate someone completely controlling an army.

The position of the superintendent is to prevent the generals from becoming bigger.

Today's situation is still a lot more chaotic, the martial arts conference is imminent, and the imperial army is pressing, which is simply the rhythm of all parties appearing on the stage and singing at the same time.

At this time, Yang Xiu suddenly smiled and said, "What's the matter, there are still a lot of benefits to cooperating with me."

Guo Hao glanced at him and said, "How much do you think you can believe your words?"

Yang Xiu thought for a while and replied seriously: "I think I can be completely trusted, after all, I am not a bad person." ”

I knew that he was thick-skinned, but I didn't expect that I still underestimated him.

Guo Hao was expressionless, and said coldly: "Then you also have to remember that although you cooperate with us, it doesn't mean that you are our companion, this is just a transaction." ”

Yang Xiu chuckled: "It's okay, anyway, the days are still long, we can communicate slowly, sooner or later we will become friends one day, after all, I am very sincere." ”

Guo Hao sneered and did not speak.

After a long time, people's hearts appear, you are afraid that you have a black heart
