Not being able to give birth to a child... Zhao Yinfeng's eyes showed a tinge of pity. For a woman, not being able to give birth to a child is such a painful thing. It can be seen from her reddish eye sockets, but not being able to give birth to a child is such a painful thing. What a problem! Zhao Yinfeng unconsciously said: "Then if you conquer the world, who will you hand it over to?"
"Give it to the right person," Ling Qingyu looked at the vast world again, and said, "I just want to change this system, make this society better, make history progress, and let our Han nation continue to prosper and grow stronger." , all I can do is to lay the foundation, as for the latter, there must be people who can accept and continue my ideas, and their abilities will be stronger than mine, so just leave it to them.”
This woman... Zhao Yinfeng hugged her from behind, regardless of her resistance and struggle, pressed his head on top of her head and said: "Well then, I will take a step back and give me some sweetness, just like the previous two times, then When I capture Shangjing according to the agreement, you want to marry me, if you agree, I, Zhao Yinfeng, and 250,000 people under my command will be at your disposal, and I will go through fire and water without hesitation."
Seeing that she still didn't answer, Zhao Yinfeng couldn't help laughing and said: "Silly woman, I just wait until Shangjing is captured, maybe I will die in battle before that day, what are you afraid of? That's it, then I will take it first today." interest!"
"Hey!"
"Don't be shy, it's not the first time!"
Ying Shisan held Sum who was about to rush in, and then shook his head. Zhao Yinfeng's offer was too good, and it was indeed a powerful boost for the current Ling family. Moreover, with a wry smile in his heart, Ying Shisan Pulling Su Mu back a few steps, she heard from Yingjiu that she didn't dislike doing that kind of thing with Zhao Yinfeng.
When He Li, who had caught up with the news from Chang'an, arrived at Huaqing Pool, Ling Qingyu was sound asleep on the bed in the room, while Zhao Yinfeng was half lying on the bench by the hot spring pool with a satisfied face.
Seeing He Li sitting opposite, with a look of stormy face, Zhao Yinfeng smiled and said: "We are also considered an alliance now, why, want to kill me?"
He Li was slightly taken aback. He only knew that Zhao Yinfeng went directly to Huaqing Pool. He was afraid that he would be unfavorable to Ling Qingyu, so he rushed up. Thinking about it now, Ying Shisan and Sum's expressions were not quite right just now. Annoyed rather than awkward.
"alliance?"
"Yes, I have already agreed with Ling Qingyu that I will bring my men and horses to separate from Zhao Mingliang. Regardless of Zhao Mingliang's bad things, if you are ready, I will go out to attack Liao Kingdom and take Xiao Sui's head. Capture Shangjing." Zhao Yinfeng casually took a sip from the tea bowl on the table next to him, and said.
"Conditions?" He Li asked in a deep voice.
"Conditions? That's between me and her. You can ask her." Zhao Yinfeng narrowed his eyes and smiled, seeing He Li's face darkened, and said with a good complexion: "You came just in time, tell your plan , I have a number in my heart."
When he leaned over to take the tea bowl, the collar of his clothes loosened, and he moved his hand deliberately, the collar slipped down a little, revealing the deep red marks on his neck and under his throat.
He Li's pupils shrank suddenly, he knew what caused it very well, but if Zhao Yinfeng was too strong, Ying Shisan and the others couldn't sit idly by, although Zhao Yinfeng heard that his skills were good, but immediately How would they beat people like Shadow Thirteen? What's more, there are Ye Po and Ye Fei, so that is to say, Ling Qingyu acquiesced to this, why? condition? What is the condition of this brat
"Although Chai Jinzhong and Chai Jingchao have fought twice, the losses are not big. Chai Jinzhong occupies Bianjing and Haozhou in the west of Jing, the south of Jingdong East Road, and the upper part of Huainan West Road, while Chai Jingchao occupies the lower part of Beijing Northwest Road, and Huainan. West Road, these places are the most prosperous and most populous places in Dazhou, and the least affected places in the past few years. They have a large population and rich products. In addition, the Wang family's power in Liangzhe Road and the Cao family's power in Jiangnan Road, they want to call The army is easy. As far as I know, both of them are training more than 200,000 new troops. Duan'an County King also summoned 100,000 people to defend Luoyang. Not long ago, most of the Southwest Jing Road also took refuge He, Zhao Mingliang's current troops are gathered on Jingdong Road, but the old man has left some people for him in Health. If he wants to attack, he should attack Huainan Road first, cutting off the main road and material transportation channel from Jiangnan to Bianjing, and with himself The forces in the south of the Yangtze River will reconcile and connect the territory." No longer looking at He Li's face, Zhao Yinfeng broke a branch from the nearby tree, drew a schematic diagram on the ground, and said: "In this way, this place will form a The situation where the four of them check each other. Bianjing has a rich background, but there is no natural danger to stop it. If Chai Jinzhong doesn't want to be eaten, he will find a way to unite one or two of them and break the exit first. He and Chai Jingchao are mortal enemies. Will reconcile, if he kills the old man, then it is impossible with Zhao Mingliang, then we can only cooperate with Duke Duan'an to solve the enemies of Chenzhou first."
"What if Chai Jinzhong doesn't kill your old man? Zhao Mingliang has no chance to rebel, so what?" He Li asked.
"Then Zhao Mingliang won't move, and Chai Jinzhong can still maintain his current advantage. If I were Chai Jinzhong, I would take advantage of this time to cooperate with Duan'an, and take down Chai Jingchao first." It comes from arrogance, I'm afraid he may not be able to bear it, if he doesn't kill the family members of those generals in Bianjing, he can really maintain it for a few more years."
Glancing at He Li's slightly frowned brows, Zhao Yinfeng said: "You didn't think about attacking the Central Plains so early, did you? Chang'an is easy to attack, but the Central Plains is not easy to attack. You must use all your troops to attack the Central Plains, so the defense line in the north will be empty." Now, you have already fought with the Dangxiang Liao Kingdom, fighting on two fronts, I am afraid that you cannot do it with your current strength, so," Zhao Yinfeng smiled slightly, and said: "Your strategy should be to get Meng Su to fight. First attack the party, and then attack the Central Plains after all worries have been relieved. What about the Liao Kingdom? What are you going to do? The larger the territory, the greater the defensive force you need. The East Road and Shaanxi Road are barren and the population is small. Can you recruit The supply of troops is limited."
Throwing the stick away, Zhao Yinfeng folded his arms and said, "Look, you need me very much."
"What do you think of her?" He Li lowered his head and asked in a deep voice.
"What are you doing?" Zhao Yinfeng lay on the bench, looked at the long white clouds in the sky, thought for a while, and said with a smile: "I don't know, but I hope she lives and lives happily. What she wants to do Things, I want to do something for her, I want to marry her, oh, no, it’s a marriage. Look, my family background, appearance and ability are not as good as Yang Zhao?"
He Li was completely taken aback. There was something going on between Zhao Yinfeng and Ling Qingyu. He knew this. Whether it was Ling Qingyu's escape in Daixian County or Zhao Yinfeng's proposal at the plum appreciation meeting, he later heard from the Kang family that they could get married. Jing was completely helped by Zhao Yinfeng's people. It would be strange to say that there was nothing between them, but..., this situation still made him somewhat unacceptable. Is this what Zhao Yinfeng said? ah? Marriage? You go dreaming!
"It's impossible for her to love you!" He Li said firmly.
"Really? Are you so sure?" Zhao Yinfeng stood up and looked directly into his eyes, then a smile slowly appeared on the corner of his mouth, and said: "It's just that you can't do it, she will like me!"
Stupid, liking and loving are two different things. Well, she even fell in love with the dog she picked up on the side of the road for two days! A smile appeared on He Li's face, and he said, "Oh? Really? Then let's discuss!"
His smile was so unpredictable that Zhao Yinfeng shivered instinctively, then he glanced at him suspiciously, straightened his back, and smiled so much that he showed his white teeth, he said, "It's easy to say!"
When Ling Qingyu woke up the next day, he was surprised to see two men with blue noses and swollen eyes outside. He sized them up, but wisely, he didn't ask for details.
"Zhao Yinfeng, is this place in your hands now?" Ling Qingyu asked, pointing to the location of Tianjin on the map.
"Yes, under Youzhou." Zhao Yinfeng nodded.
"Well, I will send people to build a port here. We will open up the transportation line. After the port is established, my ship can come over, and the sulfur iron ore imported from Japan can also disembark from here, and then Send it to Hedong Road." Ling Qingyu looked at Zhao Yinfeng and said. Most of the Perak Lei Mengsu produced by Guan Xiao has been used up, because the sulfur can't be transported, so the production has stopped, and not only these, the areas with the most abundant products in Dazhou are still in Bianjing and Jiangnan, and East Road and Shaanxi Road are still There is a lot of difference. To ensure military supplies, the north-south passage must be opened up. The sea route is the fastest. Compared with Zhao Yinfeng who said to go to Beijing, sending supplies through his territory is what Ling Qingyu values most now. Therefore, no matter what conditions Zhao Yinfeng asked, she would agree now.
"I already have hundreds of sea ships on Guangnan Road. When the shipyards over there are up, there will be hundreds of large transport ships, each with 20,000 shi, and they can transport millions of shi of grain at a time. , Zhao Yinfeng, I guarantee your armament, but you have to listen to me, how about it?" Ling Qingyu's words made Zhao Yinfeng touch his chin, and there was something more in Ling Qingyu's eyes, this woman can always call He was pleasantly surprised. The area he controls is not very rich in materials, and it is at the forefront of the Liao Kingdom. The armaments are consumed quickly and it is not easy to replenish them. For so many years, although the old man and Zhao Mingliang have been suppressing him and even bullying him, he has not done anything. The resistance is because they need to rely on them to get these armaments.
"I don't understand military affairs," Ling Qingyu looked up at the two of them, and said, "I will try my best to guarantee your military supplies."
"We probably have half a million troops on both sides. This is not a small number." Zhao Yinfeng laughed.
"If you fix the port, I'll send you ten million taels of silver and one million shi of grain, how about that?"
Zhao Yinfeng took a deep breath. He knew that the Ling family was rich, but the first thing he said was 10 million taels and 1 million shi. Leaving aside the courage, the question is, do you really believe me? Thinking of this, Zhao Yinfeng asked unconsciously, "Aren't you afraid that I'll swallow the money and then rape you?"
Ling Qingyu smiled, his eyes full of confidence, and said: "There is no doubt about employing people. Since we have reached an alliance, we naturally have to trust you. If we don't even have such a little trust, then what are we talking about so much?" Only ten million taels of silver , even if it is considered as your love for help in Bianjing, how can the lives of those closest to you be measured by money.
"So..." Zhao Yinfeng picked up the tea bowl and poured a glass of water, then pulled out the dagger from his waist, slashed his wrist under the tense eyes around him, dripped blood into the tea bowl, and then Handing the sword to He Li, He Li smiled, took it and swiped his wrist, dripping blood into the tea bowl.
Blood for an alliance!
Ling Qingyu looked around, and then she was ready to take the sword in He Li's hand. He Li grabbed her hand, tapped the tip of the sword lightly on her finger, and then squeezed out a drop of blood and dripped it into the tea bowl.
After drinking the blood tea in one gulp, Zhao Yinfeng said with a smile: "It's not too late, I'll go back right away, your people come from Bauhinia Pass, and I will send people there to meet them."
Ling Qingyu shook his head and said with a smile: "No, the people who built the port are in the south of the Yangtze River, and I will send them there by sea."
"Okay, as soon as your money and food arrive, I can turn against Zhao Mingliang." Zhao Yinfeng had a smile on his lips, but his eyes flashed coldly. Zhao Mingliang had already started to withhold money, food and military equipment from his side. After returning home, he should blackmail him hard first, because he would turn his face anyway.
After Zhao Yinfeng left, Ling Qingyu followed He Li down the mountain. Chang'an has returned to its former prosperity and bustle. People are forgetful. It seems that the bloody storm half a month ago has disappeared. The land and properties were taken back as rewards, the once glorious aristocratic family disappeared without leaving any traces, and the streets were still bustling with people. Because of the promulgation of the new decree, the faces of the ordinary people were full of smiles.
This year's rare good weather on Shaanxi Road, except for the fields destroyed by the 30,000 people in the dialect, other places are in a state of bumper harvest. The Ling family lowered the tax. Go down and start to re-measure the land quietly.
Ling Qingyu brought Zhu Weili's decree on Guangnan Road this time. After Han Bian merged the two, he also began to implement the same. Because of the shortage of manpower, he directly issued a recruitment order in Chang'an.
Regardless of background, regardless of past, those who are talented, knowledgeable, virtuous and capable will be entrusted with important responsibilities.
After the recruitment order was issued, no one cared about it. At this time, the scholars still had some arrogance, especially those aristocratic families. Although they were afraid of the bloodthirsty of the Rakshasa Army and made compromises, it didn't mean that they recognized Ling Ling. Jia, for this recruitment order, he scoffed behind his back.
On June 15th, a humble scholar unveiled the list. On the day the list was unveiled, he recited Cheng Jia's ten thousand words book aloud. He said bluntly that the actions of the Ling family benefited the country and the people. ! If one person moves, there will be more responders. Although most of them are from poor families, some of them are incompetent people who come to try their luck and gamble their backgrounds. However, many years later, someone asked Han Bian privately whether the recruiting order disappointed him. Han Bian He said with a smile, Xu Jing'an alone was enough!
In mid-June, an urgent military report came from Yanzhou. A coup d'état occurred in the party, and the little emperor took charge of the government. *. And Heishuiguan also came to the military newspaper, and the Shan Fu of Datong Mansion launched an attack on Shuozhou. Shuozhou narrowly won, but suffered huge losses, and the Shuozhou defender died in battle.
The follow-up 50,000 infantry had arrived, and Yin Ting'an and Lin Xiang were left to guard Tongguan and Chang'an. He Li handed over 60,000 cavalry to Meng Su and went to Yanzhou for support. He left 10,000 cavalry to cooperate with the infantry to guard the pass. The team returned to aid Heishuiguan.
Chang'an was newly established, and Han Bian wanted to stay here to consolidate his achievements, but because of the emergency of the war, the army had to rush overnight, so He Li left Ling Qingyu in Chang'an.
There are so many cavalry under He Li and Meng Su, thanks to the deal with the Liao Kingdom a few years ago, and the occupation of several horse farms. Now that the deal with the Liao Kingdom has been completely cut off, the Dangxiang side is very important What's more, if they want to attack the Central Plains, they can't be attacked by the enemy. The Liao Kingdom is restrained by Zhao Yinfeng, but they will fight against the party independently.
After thinking about it for a few days, despite the objections of Han Bian and others, Ling Qingyu embarked on the journey to the northwest.
A few days after leaving Chang'an, the latest battle report was sent to Ling Qingyu from the front line. Dangxiang Li Yuanqing led a cavalry of 100,000 to break through the Zhongning defense line and continued southward. He had already broken through Weizhou and reached Guyuan. Huizhou defender Wei Lang led troops to help , when we met the enemy in Huaiyuan, Wei Lang rushed to help from afar, and the men and horses were exhausted. Li Yuanqing set up an ambush at the foot of Liupan Mountain and lured Wei Lang into the ambush circle. At Yiminbao, Li Yuanqing besieged the fort for three days. Mengsu's reinforcements arrived, and together with Wei Langli Yingwai defeated Li Yuanqing's troops.
In this battle, Wei Lang's troops suffered huge losses, with less than 20,000 of the 50,000 soldiers they led, and several generals died in the battle, and Wei Lang himself was seriously injured. of a battle.
However, with 50,000 infantry fighting against 100,000 cavalry, the opponent came prepared. Wei Lang was still able to persist until Meng Su came, and jointly counterattacked to kill more than half of the troops led by Li Yuanqing, forcing Dang Xiang back to the other side of the Yellow River. It is worthy of being one of the top ten famous generals called by later generations.
The bright moon is in the sky, the stars are shining brightly, and the summer night mountain breeze brings some coolness and blows layers of grass waves, which makes this wild land a little poetic and picturesque.
Sitting on the blanket, looking at the boundless starry sky that day, Ling Qingyu frowned slightly, worried in his heart.
The northwest region is vast, and the Dangxiang clan is a nation where everyone is a soldier. They can gather hundreds of thousands of troops at any time. Although Meng Su Duming has been operating here for many years, even if he adds the original Northwest Army troops to his hands But 200,000, and it needs to be distributed in several places for defense. I'm afraid it won't be easy to win, the world...
"Master, it's late at night, let's go in and rest." Su Mu knelt down beside her, gently put the soft cloak on her shoulders, and said in a low voice.
He led the troops to kill more than half of them, and forced Dangxiang back to the opposite side of the Yellow River. He deserves to be called one of the top ten famous generals by later generations.
