After You Miao decided to send troops in February, Zhao Chao wanted to stay in You Miao for dinner. You Miao did not dare to stay longer because of Li Yan's affairs, so he had to leave again exhausted.
This time, it was still the same old son and buddy. They were all biological children. It had been nearly nine years. When You Miao sat down, everyone was laughing.
"It's really not easy to invite you back." Li Yan never mentioned the affairs of the court, and said with a smile, "Come on, brothers, toast to you."
"I don't dare." You Miao smiled and said, "I should toast you. Over the years, everyone has worked hard."
Pingxi said: "I heard that you and Batu have made friends, how is that person?"
You Miao thought of the crime of "connecting with foreign countries" that he was randomly accused of, and did not dare to say more, and replied, "It's just a disguise. I killed He Motie'er under his command."
You Miao thought that Li Yanpingxi was also among the people who came to pick him up by the Yellow River that day, so he simply did not hide it from them, and said, "The letter of begging for peace has been handed over to Your Majesty."
Li Yan said: "Even the Tartars don't want to fight, it's obvious that they are afraid."
You Miao took a sip of wine and replied, "Your Majesty's intention to go on an expedition has been decided, so it's better not to say more. The day you came to Yangzhou that year, you swore that there will always be a time to return to the Central Plains."
Several people remembered the day when they escaped from Yanbian, Pingxi sighed, put down the wine glass heavily, and said, "Ziqian, I will not hide it from you, after so many years, you also know that my buddy speaks and never hides it. "
"You want to fight, we all understand and know the benefits of war." Pingxi said: "But the situation is not as optimistic as you think. The decisive battle three years ago almost dragged down Jiangnan. Years, I'm afraid no one will attack again, the apocalypse is already..."
"I know." You Miao said lightly.
"You can't take risks in state affairs..." Qin Shaonan said again.
"Tell him about this." Li Yan said angrily: "How could he not understand? I ask you, You Miao, you are fighting for Shana's talents, right?! You have never regarded Tianqi as your home! Don't think that I don't know, after fighting the Tartars, His Majesty also promised to lend troops to Sanado..."
"He has also done a lot for Tianqi." You Miao said, "This is a matter of course."
"I'm not against a decisive battle." Li Yan said angrily: "But it should never be at this time, at this place! Give me another 20 years, and the Tartars will disintegrate themselves without much fighting..."
"Twenty years from now!" You Miao's voice became louder: "It's not up to everyone here to have the final say! Do you think that when His Majesty is old, you can still have such ambitions? There is more than enough!"
"Then you will take the lives of 150,000 soldiers and civilians to fight a battle that you don't know if you can win?!" Li Yan said angrily.
You Miao replied, "Who will win the war? Tell me?"
Li Yan couldn't make sense with You Miao, You Miao didn't want to talk nonsense with Li Yan anymore, he didn't bother to listen to Li Yan's national policy, all these were written in the book, needless to say he also knew - Li Yan's goal was to make a close attack. When the Tartars show their favor, they reach a consensus first, and then clean up the Wuhu who are entrenched in the pass one by one. Tatar was finally resolved.
You Miao has to admit that this method is the safest way. It has been established since ancient times, but to implement this strategy, it will not be possible to achieve it in 50 years or 100 years. The scholars from the Central Plains have been fleeing south for a long time, and they are all tired. With time, everyone will be old, and Zhao Chao has no children. In case of violent levies and violent attacks, Jiangnan will surely suffer unbearably.
Of course, You Miao didn't dare to say these words. He said that he was talking about saints. Even if Zhao Chao didn't stab him to death, it wouldn't be fun to be included in the previous book. Emperors will change when they get old, and their temperament will change greatly, especially an insecure emperor like Zhao Chao, who has experienced ups and downs when he was young, and it is even more difficult to accept opinions in his old age. At that time, You Miao patted his butt and left, leaving behind a mess.
The last time Apocalypse almost lost the country, it was precisely because of the rot that started at home. A big tree, without being pushed by foreigners, was left with a hollow and rotten trunk, which could not withstand a little wind and rain.
"Since you want to say that." You Miao said, "I'll be the one who insisted on doing things my own way and making a statement. General Nie has obtained the tiger talisman today and is going to dispatch his troops. Li Zhifeng is also making arrangements. This matter cannot be changed."
"You Ziqian! Don't you even listen to military orders?" Li Yan growled.
"How do you hear it?!" You Miao said angrily: "The arrow is on the string, I have to send it! I have been preparing for so many years, just waiting for this time..."
"What if I lose?" Pingxi asked.
"If I lose, I will be responsible." You Miao replied.
Li Yandao: "What are you responsible for? Today's Tianqi seems to be rich and prosperous, but it stops at the scene of being strong outside and doing nothing. The lives of 150,000 soldiers and the families of Jiangnan people, can you afford this responsibility?!"
"I can't afford it." You Miao said, "It's just one life. It's not too late to ask me this after I lose."
"It's a lunatic." Li Yan gritted his teeth.
You Miao put down the wine glass and said lightly, "Farewell."
You Miao left the restaurant and came out. The wind was blowing, and his mind was vaguely clear.
He had to admit that Li Yan could see better than him. After all, he had been an official in the DPRK for many years and knew the livelihood of the people everywhere. Now rashly start a war, either with complete victory or complete defeat, and there is no room for it.
Even he himself began to waver, for fear that, as Li Yan said, World War I would bring down Apocalypse. At this moment, the situation is different from many years ago. At that time, when people from the north came south, the entire Jiangnan began to panic, so the army and the people were united and willing to fight.
Right now, it's hard to say.
When You Miao returned to the political affairs hall, before he could think about it, the six documents had already piled up into a mountain. While the people were staying up all night to review things, You Miao sat in the place where Sun Yu used to be, and was stunned for a while. If it was Mr., what would it do now
The old man's heart is always very strong, so strong that You Miao feels a little incredible. His determination is like a wall, as if it will always stay behind You Miao. When sitting in this position, You Miao seemed to feel that Sun Yu was the wall behind him.
"The arrow is on the string, I have to send..." You Miao murmured.
"General Lee."
"His Royal Highness Sanado."
During the work, they all got up one after another, and Li Zhifeng appeared in the hall. You Miao didn't even know when Li Zhifeng came. When he looked up, he looked at him and saw the warm smile in his eyes.
"Hello." Li Zhifeng nodded slightly at everyone, and it was considered a courtesy. Li Zhifeng was arrogant and had always been known in the court. When he saw the Six Books, Li Zhifeng didn't even nod his head. To say a word, it is already on You Miao's face.
"Have you eaten yet?" Li Zhifeng asked.
"Just drank some wine." You Miao and Li Zhifeng asked and answered as if they were talking about family affairs. The matter of You Miao and Li Zhifeng's marriage was also discussed in the political affairs hall. Although it was somewhat nondescript, the relationship between the two , the rest of the people are clear, so it is not surprising.
You Miao and Li Zhifeng came out and went to have dinner again. When they returned to the political affairs hall, it was already late at night.
Li Zhifeng smiled and said, "The day after tomorrow we will send troops."
"Yeah." You Miao nodded, still a little apprehensive. Li Zhifeng looked at You Miao again and said, "Ziqian, trust me, I will definitely give you a new home that will satisfy you."
Hearing those words, You Miao felt another emotion in his heart. He looked up at Li Zhifeng and found that he was different from before. His eyes were filled with hope and expression, like a young man who had received a promise. His flying eyebrows seemed to tell You Miao that their future was about to begin.
At that moment, You Miao made up her mind.
"Leave the affairs of the DPRK to me." You Miao said.
Li Zhifeng said: "You pay attention to your body, don't work too hard."
You Miao nodded, the moon was in the middle of the sky, and the two hugged each other tightly, silent.
