Ye Qi Guanyin looked at Wu Xing with extremely sharp eyes, and Wu Xing felt terrified when she saw him. Ye Qi Guanyin said: "Tell King Yan, don't think that you will take advantage of your Majesty's death! If Yan Yun dares to act rashly, we, the Liao Kingdom, will fight Yan Yun with all our strength to the end!"
Wu Xing's heart trembled, knowing that she could do it, he clasped his fists and said, "Princess, you don't have to worry about us! If King Yan really wants to take advantage of people's danger, it will be a great opportunity when the princess and the Japanese are fighting fiercely, but Yan The king did not take this opportunity to use troops against the Liao Kingdom, but instead helped the Liao Kingdom. Therefore, what the princess should worry about now should not be us at all, but the Japanese!"
Ye Qi Guanyin's heart moved, she frowned and nodded gently.
Seeing that there was nothing more to say, Wu Xing clasped his fists and said, "Princess, I have to take my leave!" Ye Qi Guanyin grunted. Wu Xing left the tent. As soon as they came out of the big tent, they saw Wang Yue and others approaching with anxious faces and walked into the big tent. Wu Xing turned around to look, smiled, and went back to his tent.
Back in his tent, Wu Zi was still thinking about what happened just now. Zhen Riqian came up to him and asked in confusion: "Sir, why do the Khitans seem to be preparing to retreat?" Wu Xing sat down and said with a wry smile: "Some unexpected things happened." He looked at Zhen Riqian. At a glance, "You must have never imagined that the emperor of Liao Kingdom passed away!"
Zhen Riqian was stunned, "Is this the case?"
Wu Xing nodded, "You see you are really shocked! When I heard the news, I was exactly the same as you are now." Zhen Rigan frowned and said, "I asked why the Khitans suddenly wanted to withdraw their troops. It turned out to be their emperor. Died! But, this happened too suddenly! "
Wu Xing thought: "I always feel that something big is going to happen in the Liao Kingdom! Things here must be reported to King Yan immediately, must be reported immediately!" "Yes! By the way, sir, since the Khitans are leaving, shouldn't we leave too?" Already?"
Wu Xing thought for a moment and slowly shook his head, "No! In addition to assisting the Khitan, the order given by King Yan to us is more importantly to observe the Japanese. I estimate that once the Khitan withdraws, the Japanese will inevitably resurrect and launch a massive counterattack. We must Stay here and continue to observe the Japanese!" He glanced at Zhen Riqian and said, "You don't have to write any letters. You can rush back and report to King Yan in person. That is clearer than any attribute!" Zhen Riqian said quickly: "Then so Okay, how can I let you stay here alone?" Wu Xing chuckled, stood up and patted Zhen Rigan on the shoulder, "Brother, do you know what I did before I was admitted to the academy?"
Zhen Rigan shook his head.
Wu Xing said with a smile: "Speak it out, brother, I'm afraid you won't believe it! Before I was admitted to the school, I was actually a giant bandit who robbed homes and houses in the Liao Kingdom! Countless officers and soldiers died at my hands!"
Zhen Riqian's eyes widened in disbelief, and then he felt relieved: "I asked you why you don't look like a scholar at all. It turns out that you were born in Lulin!"
Wu Xing recalled his life as a hero and couldn't help but sigh with emotion. He smiled at Zhen Rigan and said, "So you don't have to worry about me at all! With my skills and so many elite hidden killers, the Japanese can't do anything to us! On the contrary, it's you , If a literati with no power to restrain a chicken stays, once he confronts others, he will not only be in danger, but also implicate others!"
Zhen Rigan smiled bitterly and said, "What your lord is saying is that if I stay as a powerless scholar, I will only bring trouble to everyone! Hey, in that case, I will follow your lord's arrangements!"
Wu Xing said happily: "That's right! If there is no delay in this matter, you can leave today! The situation in Goryeo will definitely be in chaos from now on, and the current contact method cannot be used. I will activate the previous contact method. You have to transfer this Let me know General Liu Zhiliang at one point." "Yes!" Zhen Rigan agreed, glanced at Wu Xing, turned around and left. Later that day, Commander Zhen Rigan and four secret guards headed west along the Han River.
The next day, the tens of thousands of elite Khitan troops who had crossed to the south bank of the Han River to capture Guangzhou withdrew. On the same day, the Liao and Goryeo armies began to move north. Hundreds of thousands of Goryeo troops and hundreds of thousands of Goryeo civilians retreated to Kaijing, which is now the Kaicheng area; while the Liao army continued to the north. The Goryeo soldiers and civilians stood on a high place and looked up at the rolling dust banners heading north, feeling in their hearts It was extremely heavy, and some people started to cry.
Not long after, bad news came from the south. As soon as the army withdrew, the Japanese immediately attacked from all sides. All the previously recovered territories fell again, but the strange thing was that the Japanese did not burn, kill, loot and destroy the ground like before. Instead of plundering, they implemented a soft policy. The Japanese supported local puppets and exempted the people from many of the exorbitant taxes and miscellaneous taxes levied during the previous Goryeo rule. For a while, many people actually felt that it was better under the Japanese rule than before!
The Japanese were not in a hurry to attack Kaijing, and they did not seem to have any intention of attacking Kaijing. The Japanese army only concentrated on stationing troops in the area south of Kaijing.
His eyes turned back to Tianjing New City.
Generals and officials from all over the country gathered in Bianliang to discuss military and political affairs with Yang Peng. At the meeting, Yang Peng decided to make a certain degree of adjustment to the distribution of the army in the world. After the adjustment, it became: the second and third legions will continue to stay in the Yanyun Sixteenth Prefecture, the fourth and fifth legions will still guard Huainan, and the directly affiliated legions now have There are 400,000 troops. The 100,000 Yang family troops are all deployed in northern Shaanxi. Cao Jun's 50,000 Pofeng troops defend Yanmen Pass, Gao Hu's 50,000 trap troops defend Yinzhou, and the other 200,000 directly affiliated army officers and Xuanjia troops are stationed respectively. Bingzhou and Cangzhou serve as strategic reserves to support all parties at any time; the 5th Army Corps guards the southwestern part of Shanxi, the 6th and 7th Army Corps is stationed in Bingzhou Prefecture, and supports all parties at any time, and the 8th and 9th Army Corps guards the line from Xining Prefecture to Fengxiang Prefecture. , as for Weinan, it was guarded by the former Song Army officers and soldiers who had taken refuge.
This is the situation of the army's defense. At the meeting, the military committee also passed the decision to set up one hundred military mansions in Weinan and Weibei to strengthen the defense forces in each place. In this way, including the military mansions in Shanxi and Hebei, there are a total of 405 military mansions and 400,000 reserve troops.
There is nothing to say about the pension. The relevant departments have already implemented it in accordance with the previous regulations. They just explained it to Yang Peng and all important civil and military officials at the conference. The cost is really not small.
In terms of internal affairs, the local officials reported their respective situations. The best situation among them is naturally the Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures and Ryukyu. Agriculture is destined to have a bumper harvest. It is expected that the government treasury will increase by at least 6 million tons of grain. The industrial and commercial situation will continue is improving, but development has slowed down a lot. The revenue from maritime trade alone is expected to exceed 8 million taels of silver this year. In other places, Shanxi's development is the fastest. After all, Shanxi's foundation is the last, and the momentum of industry, commerce, agriculture, etc. It is very rapid, but Shandong and Lianghuai are not inferior. Taking advantage of sea transportation, the trade income of these two places is rising in a straight line. The situation in Yanjing is quite satisfactory, not bad; as for Weibei and Weinan, these newcomers The places included in the territory are full of waste and are waiting for development. For the time being, they are just consuming resources and there is little profit.
Although the overall situation is good, there are still many problems. The most serious ones are in the Weinan and Weibei areas. The city walls and infrastructure have been severely damaged, and the population has been lost. Ten out of ten of the previous grain fields have been abandoned and have been restored to construction. The resources to be consumed will be extremely huge! Coupled with the funds needed for development in other places, Yanyun's finances will still be unable to make ends meet in the past few years. Fortunately, there were a large amount of seizures and accumulation in the past, and the recent battle has also yielded a lot, so the finances are not yet As for problems.
Finally, everyone had a long discussion on the development policy for the past two years, and finally reached an agreement that Yanyun had developed too rapidly some time ago and should temporarily stop to digest and absorb internal development. Therefore, the overall policy for the past two years was set as: Harmonize with neighbors, develop the economy, attract the population back, and vigorously reclaim wasteland; in terms of military, strengthen training, prepare the army for war, and be ready for a big war.
After finishing the long understanding, I looked up and found that it was already evening. Yang Peng laughed and said, "Time flies so fast!" Everyone couldn't help laughing. Yang Peng raised his voice and shouted: "Come here!" Jiang Li, the pretty-looking Feifeng female guard captain in armor, almost stopped coming in. She cupped her fists and bowed: "Master, what are your orders?"
Yang Peng smiled and said: "The time is just right, let me prepare the food and drinks below!" Jiang Li responded and ran down.
Yang Peng smiled and said to everyone: "It's hard for everyone to come here. I'll treat you to a good drink!" Everyone smiled and clasped their fists in thanks.
After a while, all the female guards were seen filing in with wine and food, which were placed in front of everyone. The aroma of food and wine filled the entire hall for a while. Yang Peng picked up the wine glass and said to everyone: "Brothers," everyone showed concern. Yang Peng continued: "I want to thank you for this glass of wine, and thank you for working with me to create such a world!"
Everyone raised their glasses, and Zhang Xiang said: "This is all the work of King Yan, we are just following orders!" Duan Zhixian scolded angrily: "You stinky scholar, you know how to flatter!" Yang Peng raised his head and drank the wine. Everyone saw this and drank from their glasses together. Yang Peng poured another glass of wine, held it up and said solemnly: "It is not easy to get to this point. Many brothers have sacrificed their lives for this. Chen Jie, Li Dayong, Li Tian, etc. have all been stained with blood for this! This glass of wine Respect them, we will never forget them!" Thinking of those brothers who died on the battlefield, everyone couldn't help but feel sad in their hearts and picked up their glasses one after another. Yang Peng raised his head while holding the wine glass and said loudly: "Brothers, watch from the sky. Brothers will not disappoint you! Within ten years, your descendants must live in an extremely powerful country!"
Everyone got excited. Yang Peng raised his head and drank the wine in his glass, and everyone drank too.
After the banquet, the civil servants and generals left one after another. Jiang Li came to the hall, clasped her fists towards Yang Peng and said, "Master, the ladies have prepared a banquet in the backyard." Yang Peng smiled slightly, stood up, and Han Bing asked teasingly: "Can you still eat? Yang Peng said: "You have to eat even if you can't eat! It's been a long time since I last ate with them!" He glanced at Han Bing, Yang Jiumei and Yang Erya, and said with a smile: "Let's go together. We share the blessings and the hardships!" "The three girls smiled sweetly and walked towards the backyard together. Jiang Li ordered the female guards to clear away the cups and dishes in the hall and then went to the backyard herself.
Arriving at the waterside pavilion by the lake in the backyard, Chai Yonghui, Princess Lihua, Zhao Jinxi, and Yang Tong were sitting at a large round table waiting, where they were enjoying a rich meal of delicacies, jade, and wine. Why did they all come? It turned out that Yang Peng wanted to use Tianjing New City as a command center to stay here for a long time, so the princesses of King Yan all left Yanjing and came to Tianjing New City; Yelu Hanyu did not come because Yelu Han Yuzheng is sitting in the Sixteenth Prefecture of Yanyun, in charge of the military and political affairs of the Sixteenth Prefecture of Yanyun. The Sixteenth Prefecture of Yanyun is extremely important and needs a trustworthy person with both wisdom and courage to take charge, and Yelu Hanyu is undoubtedly the perfect one. candidate.
When Chai Yonghui saw Yang Peng coming, he quickly stood up to greet them. Yang Peng quickly stepped forward to help the girls. The girls raised their heads and looked at Yang Peng very excitedly. Their beautiful eyes showed excitement, resentment, and tenderness. Chai Yonghui and Princess Lihua had more resentment in their eyes. The other three women had more resentment in their eyes. There is more tenderness in the eyes. Yang Peng looked at the wives in front of him, who had different styles but the same attractive roles. His heart was filled with tender feelings, and then he felt guilty. He had been away fighting for a long time and had no time to spend time with them.
Chai Yonghui said: "Brother, please take a seat quickly!" Yang Peng nodded with a smile, walked to the vacant north seat and sat down. The women took their seats one after another. The seven women seemed to be divided into three groups with distinct latitude and longitude. Chai Yonghui and Zhao Lihua sat in one group, Yang Tong and Zhao Jinxi sat in the right group, and Han Bing, Yang Jiumei and Yang Erya sat opposite.
Yang Tong picked up the wine glass and looked at Yang Peng with her beautiful eyes. "Husband, I'd like to give you a drink. Husband, thank you for your hard work!" Yang Peng felt warm in his heart. He picked up the wine glass and said with emotion: "You guys have worked hard too. I didn't even spend time with you!" Then he raised his head and drank, and Yang Tong also drank the wine in the glass.
Chai Yonghui picked up the wine glass and said, "Brother, on behalf of the sisters, I propose a toast to you. I hope you will take good care of your health! You don't have to worry about things at home. We have everything under control!" Yang Peng nodded with a smile and said softly: "I My wives are so virtuous and considerate, so I don’t have to worry! But you should also protect yourselves. I hope that every time I come back to see you, you will be beautiful and happy!" Girls With a gentle smile, Chai Yonghui raised his head and drank the wine in the glass. Yang Peng smiled and drank the wine too.
Zhao Jinxi glanced at Han Bing and the other three girls, sighed, and said with great envy: "The slave family really envy Sister Han Bing and the others. They can go into battle and always follow their husbands. Unlike us, who are useless and can only stay at home. Silently waiting for your husband to come back!" Yang Peng glanced at Yang Peng with a resentful look, and Yang Peng felt that his heart was about to melt.
Han Bing said: "You are wrong about this. Although we went on an expedition with my eldest brother, it was difficult for us to be together. It is impossible for the army to be crowded together. Each army needs someone to lead it, so it is actually difficult for us and eldest brother to be together." Together. Just like this time, my eldest brother led the army far away in Gansu, while Jiumei and I led the army to station in Hedong. We are thousands of miles apart." Yang Jiumei continued: "Even if we lead the army together, it is actually difficult to talk to each other. On the battlefield. It’s extremely dangerous up there, and there’s no leisure and relaxation there.”
Zhao Jinxi smiled and said: "You two sisters have worked so hard! I'd like to toast you two sisters!" He picked up the wine glass. In fact, Zhao Jinxi is older than Han Bing and Yang Jiumei, but she obediently calls the two girls sister. After listening to Zhao Jinxi's words, the two women couldn't help but have a good impression of her. They picked up their wine glasses and had sex with Zhao Jinxi.
Yang Peng noticed Yang Tong's conspicuously bulging belly and asked: "Sister Yang Tong, your, your belly..." Yang Tong's face showed a proud smile, "The slave family has been there for more than eight months. body!"
Yang Peng blinked, unable to react. He still had no idea about being a father. After coming back to his senses, he said with some surprise and some fear: "I, I am actually a father!?" Yang Tong smiled brightly, and all the girls showed envy. Yang Tong said: "Mr. Wang checked the slave's pulse and said that nine out of ten there is a boy in the slave's belly!" Yang Peng giggled, "Okay, okay, I hope that boy is like me!"
Chai Yonghui couldn't help but said: "Big brother, little sister, little sister also has a child!"
Yang Peng's eyes widened in surprise, "Really?!" Then he looked at her abdomen. It was not as obvious as Yang Tong's, but it was already a little bigger. Judging from this look, she should have been pregnant before this expedition. . Yang Peng smiled proudly, "I am indeed very powerful. I kill two birds with one stone!" Yang Tong smiled charmingly, while Chai Yonghui looked a little shy.
Yang Peng glanced at the other girls and said with a smile: "You all tell the truth, are you all pregnant too?" Zhao Lihua and Yang Erya's cheeks turned red, but Yang Jiumei and Zhao Jinxi looked resentful, while Han Bing said She looked annoyed, because among the women present, only Han Bing had not yet had sex with Yang Peng, and she thought Yang Peng's words were clearly teasing her.
Yang Peng only felt that the lovely wives were very touching, and his heart couldn't help but love overflowing. However, he couldn't tell that any of them were pregnant, so he smiled and said, "You guys are talking!" The five women all turned pale. Yang Peng glanced at her with some resentment and some shame. Yang Peng understood that none of the five of them were pregnant yet.
While Yang Peng was drinking wine, he glanced at his lovely wives. Some of them looked at him affectionately, some were a little shy, and some looked annoyed. Eight women, eight styles, like eight beautiful flowers. Yang Peng and his wives chatted and drank, and time passed by unconsciously. …
It was late at night, the wine was dimmed and the lights were on. Yang Peng and his lovely wives looked drunk and hazy. Yang Peng looked at his wives affectionately, and his lovely wives also looked at him lovingly. They were beautiful. The eyes are filled with extraordinary splendor, extremely charming. Yang Peng suddenly had a problem: Where should I rest tonight?
"Husband, it's getting late, it's time to rest! The slave family and sister Jin Xi will take care of your husband to take a bath!" Yang Tong said charmingly. Zhao Jinxi also looked at Yang Peng seductively. Yang Peng couldn't help but feel his heart tremble, and when he thought of the beautiful scene while bathing, he almost agreed.
"Brother, I have a lot of things on my mind that I want to talk to you about. The child in my belly must also want to be close to his father!" Chai Yonghui said with a blushing face.
Yang Peng couldn't help but turn his head, and when his eyes met with Chai Yonghui's, he felt a fusion of affection and wanted to follow her. Then he turned around and looked at Yang Tong and others, feeling in a dilemma. At this time, Han Bing deliberately came to cause trouble again, "Humph! Although I have become your eldest brother's princess, I have not yet had a bridal chamber with your eldest brother. Your eldest brother should come to accompany me tonight!" Yang Peng looked at Han Bing and saw her. Underneath that wild demeanor was a somewhat delicate attitude, which was also extremely touching.
The girls looked at each other with a sense of competition. Yang Peng had a headache. It was really hard to enjoy the blessing of being together! At this time, Jiang Li whispered: "Why don't we draw lots, and whoever you catch will become who you are." Yang Peng's eyes lit up, and he clapped his hands and said, "Yes, draw lots!" The girls frowned, feeling that this was also an impossible solution. , Han Bing said: "If you draw lots, you draw lots. Everyone depends on their luck. No matter what the result is, there is no need to be angry!" The girls nodded. Yang Peng's wives all agreed and said to Jiang Li: "Go and prepare some lots." Jiang Li responded and ran down.
Han Bing suddenly asked: "Brother, I have a question. You have to answer it honestly." Yang Peng subconsciously felt his heart tremble, "What's the problem?" Han Bing looked at the other women and asked Yang Peng: "What if we do it at the same time? If you fall into the river, who will you save first?" The girls' hearts moved, and they all looked at Yang Peng, obviously caring very much. Yang Peng was dumbfounded: 'Why are women doing this now? Oh my God! ' After thinking about it, he glanced at the girls and saw that they all had their eyes wide open, looking very nervous and looking forward to it. Yang Peng was very moved and very distressed, "Well, this, if I am really so unlucky, What else can you do when encountering such a thing? Of course I will jump into the river to accompany you!" When the girls heard this, they couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time they felt dissatisfied and all turned pale. Yang Peng glanced at Han Bing and snorted: "You are too cunning!"
At this time, Jiang Li came in with a mahogany box and placed it on the table. She took out eight lots from the box and spread them out on the table for everyone to see. After everyone confirmed that they were correct, they folded the eight lots and returned them to the wooden box, and then pushed them in front of Yang Peng for Yang Peng to choose. Yang Peng glanced at the girls and saw that they were all looking at him helplessly. Yang Peng looked at the wooden box in front of him, reached in, and randomly drew a lot. All the girls opened their eyes wide. Yang Peng slowly opened the lot. The scene was very clean and you could hear the needle drop.
The lots were opened, and Yang Peng saw the name on it, but calmly spread the lots on the table. The girls looked quickly and saw the word 'Yonghui' written on the lot. Chai Yonghui immediately blushed and glanced at Yang Peng affectionately, while the other women looked very disappointed.
What happened after all, let’s see what happens next.
