Tang Shidian said quickly: "There are teachers who are proficient in the Japanese language in the college." Yang Peng said: "Arrange them to teach the Li brothers, and make sure that they master the Japanese language and the customs and habits of the Japanese country in the shortest possible time. But there is one thing you can do Be careful not to reveal the purpose of your study, it is confidential!" Tang Shidian promised with clasped fists.
Yang Peng smiled and said to the Li brothers: "I hope it won't be long before I see two Japanese who can be confused with the real ones!" The two agreed together. Yang Peng said: "Okay, that's it. Let me remind the three of you again that this matter must be kept strictly confidential and cannot be disclosed to anyone. Otherwise, being punished is the worst, and in the future, the Li brothers may die in a foreign land. , you must be aware of the seriousness of the matter." The three of them agreed in unison with their hearts trembling.
Yang Peng said to the Li brothers: "I will definitely be in Bingzhou when you finish your studies. You two come to Bingzhou to see me, and I will personally arrange your actions." The two of them clasped their fists and promised.
Yang Peng turned to Ye Qi Guanyin and said, "Let's go back." Ye Qi Guanyin stood up and walked forward. Tang Shidian and the Li brothers bowed and said, "Best farewell to King Yan and Princess Yan!" Yang Peng smiled and said, "No, you can stay." Then he led Ye Qi Guanyin away. Tang Shidian and Li The brothers stood outside the bamboo pavilion with their waists hunched and fists clasped. They didn't straighten up until they were out of sight. Tang Shidian said to the Li brothers: "Come with me." Then he led the Li brothers towards a group of buildings on the left hidden among the pines and cypresses.
Yang Peng and Ye Qi Guanyin came to Qianping, met with the secret guards, and then left the 'Yenjing University'. Everyone got on their horses and headed towards the palace. Ye Qi Guanyin glanced at Yang Peng and said with a smile: "The world only knows that the eldest brother is brave and invincible, but they don't know that the eldest brother is actually more cunning than anyone else!" Yang Peng touched his chin and smiled, "Little sister, what are you doing? Are you scolding elder brother, or exaggerating elder brother?" Ye Qi Guanyin raised her chin, "Of course I am praising elder brother!" Then his expression changed and he said with a smile: "Everyone thinks that being deceitful is bad? But I don't think so. Just Like a hunter dealing with a fox, if he is not cunning enough, let alone catching the fox, he will be played around by the fox!"
Yang Peng chuckled. Ye Qi Guanyin suddenly showed an angry look, "I have also taken advantage of my elder brother in this regard! I didn't expect that Guo Tong was actually a secret move made by my elder brother. The key Yanmen Pass was easily lost because of him. , which also directly led to the subversion of the entire strategic situation. It is really unexpected that one trick has such a big effect!"
Yang Peng sighed, "I feel really bad after defeating Guanyin!" Yeyi Guanyin was very angry, "Huh! You are so good at being cheap! It's so annoying!" Yang Peng saw that Yeyi Guanyin was so angry. I can't help but be fascinated by her attractive appearance. Seeing Yang Peng's silly look, Ye Qi Guanyin pursed her lips and smiled, feeling very proud and happy in her heart.
Yang Peng came back to his senses and sighed: "The vixen is indeed a vixen!"
Ye Qi Guanyin smiled brightly and glanced at Yang Peng, which almost took away Yang Peng's soul. Ye Qi Guanyin suddenly remembered something, looked serious, and asked: "Brother must not only have planted insiders in the Liao Kingdom, I'm afraid that Xixia, Tubo, and Song Kingdom will not be able to escape from your clutches!" Yang Peng smiled and said nothing. , neither denying nor admitting. Ye Qi Guanyin did not pursue the question further and changed the topic. He talked about horses. He knew the characteristics of various horses such as Mongolian horses, Northeastern horses, Western Region horses, and Sichuan horses. He was familiar with them, and finally talked about the West. Horse: "The countries in the far west are also rich in war horses. Their horses are more majestic and taller than the horses in the Western Regions. They are the best choice for heavy cavalry and have unparalleled power in short-distance charges!"
Yang Peng nodded in agreement. Ye Qi Guanyin looked at Yang Peng and said curiously: "What makes me curious is that some of the eldest brother's formation-breaking cavalry seem to be more majestic and taller than those Western knights. I wonder what these eldest brother's horses are?" Where did you get it?”
Yang Peng smiled and told about the horse officer John. Ye Qi Guanyin suddenly realized something that she had been wondering about for a long time. Yang Peng asked: "Are the blond and blue-eyed generals under your command all warriors from Western countries?" Yedi Guanyin nodded, "They come from several countries, such as Ostrogoths, Visigoths, and Franks. I asked those so-called learned people, huh, those guys who have been holding books all their lives don't know anything about it. It's simply unreasonable! You see, this shows that scholars are useless. They don't even know these things. Reading What’s the use of those books!”
Yang Peng chuckled and thought to himself: In this era, transportation is extremely inconvenient and it is difficult to communicate with each other. It is not surprising that people in the Song Dynasty do not know about Frank and other European countries. Maybe people in the Song Dynasty still have the so-called understanding of Europe in the Han and Tang Dynasties. On top of the 'Great Qin' in the Han Dynasty, the 'Great Qin' in the Han Dynasty was the Roman Empire, while the so-called 'Great Qin' in the Tang Dynasty was actually the Byzantine Empire. At that time, the Chinese people had a very pioneering spirit, so they were able to understand the affairs of distant places. Things are no longer working now.
Yang Peng suppressed his thoughts and asked Ye Yi Guanyin: "Guanyin, why did those blond warriors defect to your command?"
Ye Qi Guanyin smiled and said: "They came to the door themselves. I heard they said that they were some kind of Crusade generals, and they were marching eastward to Jerusalem, the holy land of their sect. However, their troops were ambushed halfway. , they fought desperately to break through the encirclement, came all the way east, and finally entered Xijing Road. At that time, I received a report that a group of blond ghosts were looting the Black Mountain area of Xijing Road, so I sent troops to crusade. These guys were defeated and captured. They were captured and begged me for mercy. I saw that they were all brave and brave, so I incorporated them into the Khitan army." He glanced at Yang Peng and said with a smile: "Later, in the battle with the elder brother, these golden-haired ghosts did not perform as expected. it disappointed me!"
Yang Peng nodded, "These people are not very skilled in martial arts, but they are very powerful. They are not that easy to deal with!" Ye Qi Guanyin nodded, with disdain in his eyes, "But these guys have no loyalty. It can be said that they are a bunch of guys who are blind to money. As long as they are given money, they can do anything. If there is no money, I think they will betray faster than anyone else!" Yang Peng smiled.
The group returned to the palace. As soon as he returned to the palace, Yelu Hanyu came up to him. Yelu Hanyu glanced at Yelu Guanyin and said to Yang Peng: "Brother, Zhang Xiang and I have finished handing over!" Yang Peng nodded and looked at Yelu Hanyu. , smiled and said: "I will leave the Sixteenth Prefecture of Yanyun to Zhang Xiang!" Yelu Hanyu sighed, "Okay, what can I do!" This sentence was so full of resentment that Yang Peng couldn't help but feel A swing.
A secret guard ran in from outside, clasped his fists and said, "Master, the navy commander Wang Hai and Wang Rong are here!" Everyone turned around and saw brother and sister Wang Hai and Wang Rong walking in, dressed in military uniforms. The two brothers and sisters walked into the hall and saw Chen Xiao and the girls. They immediately bowed and said, "I have met King Yan, I have met the two princesses, and I have met Lord Yelu!"
Yang Peng smiled and said, "No need to be polite." The two of them straightened up. Wang Rong stared at Yang Peng with burning eyes. Wang Hai clasped his fists and said, "We are here specially to pay homage to King Yan!"
Yang Peng asked: "Are you going back now?" He couldn't help but glance at Wang Rong. Their eyes met, as if they were lingering for a moment. Wang Hai said: "It's time for the generals to return to the base!" Yang Peng nodded, "You guys came just in time, there is something I want to discuss with you." Wang Hai bowed and said: "Please give me your instructions, King Yan!"
Yang Peng said: "I read the report of your navy. The navy's actions to cut off the Japanese waterways have been very costly. However, the effect recently has been very bad, right?"
Wang Hai nodded, "That's true. The nearest base of our naval force is far away in Tianjing New City. It is very difficult and costly to cross thousands of miles of sea routes to intercept the Japanese. However, the Japanese have recently learned to be smarter. They no longer If we directly cross the strait to go to Goryeo, but take a detour through the sea route in the far north, our military operations will be more difficult and less effective. Several of our commanders have discussed this matter and feel that intercepting the Japanese waterways is really not worth the gain and the loss should be Cancel!"
Yang Peng said: "I have thought about this matter carefully and think what you said makes sense. This kind of thankless and thankless work should be cancelled!" Then he walked to the back of the desk and sat down. Yelu Hanyu followed him to the desk and asked for help. Yang Peng was grinding his ink, Yelu Hanyu and Yeqi Guanyin were standing on the other side, and Wang Hai and Wang Rong were standing in the hall. Yang Peng sat on the chair and thought for a moment. Seeing that Yelu Hanyu had already polished the ink, he picked up the brush, dipped it in the ink, and started writing. After a while, a letter of order was written. He wrote the date, put down the brush, dried the ink, then picked up his Yanwang seal, stamped it, folded it and put it in an envelope, and handed it to Wang Hai: "Brother Wang, take this with you." The order is handed over to Commander Guan to order the navy to stop intercepting the Japanese." Wang Hai came forward, took the order with both hands, made a promise, and then clasped his fists and said, "If King Yan has no other instructions, I will take my leave! "Chen Xiao nodded.
Wang Hai and Wang Rong bowed and retreated. Wang Rong glanced at Yang Peng secretly, and Yang Peng happened to be looking at her. Their eyes met, and both of them couldn't help but feel their hearts tremble. Wang Hai and Wang Rong left, and Yang Peng calmed down, with a look of thinking on his face.
Early the next morning, Yang Peng and his party left Yanjing and headed for Bingzhou. Yeqi Guanyin and Yelu Hanyu were accompanying them. Zhang Xiang led his people to see them out of the city gate before returning.
In fact, if Yang Peng's personal preferences were followed, he would prefer to stay in Yanjing. However, because the location of Yanjing was too far away to command various actions, Yang Peng had to move the Yan King's seat to Bingzhou, but Yanjing was the leader. The status of the government has not changed.
The group of people traveled on the road for several days, always traveling during the day and sleeping at night at a post station or an official office in the city. However, on this day, because Yang Peng and his two wives were greedy for the scenery on the road, they missed the place where they stayed. They had to camp in the wilderness.
In the dead of night, piles of bonfires were scattered on the grass at the foot of the mountain. Looking at the stars from a distance, the guards hugged each other and fell asleep around the bonfires; the night guards patrolled the periphery of the camp, and there were also The sentry was looking into the distance; surrounded by the guards, there was a small forest. There were three tents in the forest. The one in the middle was Chen Xiao's. On the left and right sides were those of Yeqi Guanyin and Yelu Hanyu. There were three tents at the moment. The tents were all unlit, and there was silence.
Yelu Hanyu slept until midnight and woke up, got up and went out to relieve himself. After that, she was about to go back to the tent and continue sleeping. At this moment, she suddenly heard the suppressed moan of a woman. Yeqian Hanyu felt strange, so he followed the sound and found that the sound clearly came from his eldest brother's tent. Yelu Hanyu immediately thought of Yeqi Guanyin, and her anger immediately surged into her heart, and she muttered: "This barbarian woman is so shameless, she actually did that in the wilderness!" She didn't think that she was at all like this. The eldest brother did something wrong and only thought that Ye Qi Guanyin was wrong. Feeling annoyed, he returned to the tent angrily.
However, after she came back, although she could no longer hear any sound, the seductive hum she heard just now kept lingering in her ears, making her extremely hot and unable to sleep. Yelu Hanyu sat up, cursed a few words in annoyance, and then muttered: "Why should I sulk here by myself, but let her enjoy the tenderness of her elder brother alone?" Thinking of this, her heart became even more unbalanced, He stood up, left the tent, and walked towards Yang Peng's tent.
Arriving outside Yang Peng's tent, he heard that there was no movement inside. Yelu Hanyu couldn't help but hesitate again, worried that he had heard wrong just now. If he just went in to find his elder brother, it would be okay for his elder brother to make fun of him, but If that barbarian woman found out, I would be embarrassed!
Yelu Hanyu stood outside the tent and hesitated for a long time, but finally couldn't stand the possibility of Ye Qi Guanyin enjoying her elder brother's tenderness all to herself, so she opened the curtain and walked in.
As soon as I entered the big tent, I felt hazy, and everything could only be seen in very hazy outlines. He immediately looked towards the screen on the left, but didn't see anything unusual. Yelu Hanyu walked over with excitement and anxiety, and suddenly an ambiguous smell hit his face. Yelu Hanyu felt his heart tremble, and he almost fell down.
At this moment, Ye Qi Guanyin's hateful voice suddenly sounded, "Brother, your Princess Yelu is here!" Ye Qi Guanyin immediately became angry, "Humph, am I only allowed to come and not me?" Qi Guanyin chuckled in the dark, "I didn't say it's not allowed. Even if I don't allow it, it can't be done!" When Ye Qi Guanyin said this, Yelu Hanyu had already sat down on the other side of Yang Peng. , and then he felt a strong arm wrapped around his waist, and he couldn't help but feel emotional, and threw himself into Yang Peng's arms.
At this time, Ye Qi Guanyin laughed evilly and sat up. She couldn't see clearly in the dark, but she could see her attractive and embossed outline. Yelu Guanyin incited Yang Peng: "Brother, let's serve Princess Yelu together!" Yang Peng's heart shuddered, but Yelu Hanyu was startled, and hurriedly sat up and said: "Don't bully me again. Me!..." Before he finished speaking, Yelu Guanyin's figure flickered, and Yelu Hanyu screamed. It was Yelu Guanyin who threw Yelu Hanyu down on the bed. Yelu Guanyin smiled evilly. Getting up, Yelu Hanyu said in shock: "What are you doing?"
Yelu Guanyin smiled and said: "You can be louder, that way, everyone outside can hear it!" When Yelu Hanyu heard this, he didn't dare to say anything, and just stretched out his hand to push his Yelu Guanyin tried to push her away. But at this moment, she suddenly felt that her lips were kissed by the other party, and a strange feeling immediately washed through her whole body. She couldn't help but be stunned. During her stunned state, Yeqi Guanyin made every move, and Yelu Hanyu could only I felt as if I had received an electric shock, and my whole body became dazed. …
The next morning, the group continued walking. Yang Peng, Yelu Hanyu, and Yeqi Guanyin rode side by side, while the Feifeng Female Guards and Secret Guards walked in front and behind. Yelu Hanyu's face was red, and she glared at Ye Guanyin from time to time, while Ye Lu Guanyin smiled evilly and proudly. Yang Peng had a headache, this Guanyin was really too wild!
Seeing Yelu Hanyu's aggrieved look, Ye Qi Guanyin smiled and said, "Don't be angry. Didn't my eldest brother help you get revenge after last night?" Then he glared at Yang Peng. Yang Peng chuckled, Yelu Hanyu looked at Yang Peng affectionately.
The group of people walked on the road for another seven or eight days and finally arrived at Bingzhou. In ancient times, their speed was already very fast.
As soon as they returned to Bingzhou Palace, the girls who had long been looking forward to it immediately came out, and both sides were very excited to see him. Then all the girls noticed Ye Qi Guanyin who was following Yang Peng. Although no one had seen Ye Qi Guanyin before, they saw her coming with her eldest brother and she was so beautiful and heroic, so they immediately guessed her. identity of.
Yang Peng introduced the two parties. During the meeting, Ye Qi Guanyin's attitude was a bit arrogant, unlike when she got along with Yelu Hanyu. This made Chai Yonghui and others unhappy.
Yang Peng felt something was wrong in the atmosphere, and quickly intervened: "I'm almost exhausted after driving for such a long time. I want to take a bath first, and then have a good sleep!" The girls smiled sweetly, and Yang Tong said softly: "I know that eldest brother must take a bath. The water is ready. Let's serve eldest brother to take a bath!" As he spoke, his eyes looked at Yang Peng lovingly. Zhao Jinxi also had the same look, because he was serving Yang Peng. The three of them have always done the bathing work.
Yang Peng narrowed his eyes and smiled, turned to Jiang Li and ordered: "Take Guanyin and Han Yu to their yard." Jiang Li responded. At this time, Yang Peng was already surrounded by Yang Tong's three daughters.
The bath lasted for almost an hour, during which the beautiful scenery was not enough to be appreciated by outsiders. After taking a bath, Yang Peng returned to his room and had a good sleep. When he got up, he found that the daughters had prepared a sumptuous banquet. Yang Peng and his wives and concubines were enjoying the scenery of early autumn in the water pavilion in the backyard. , drinking and chatting happily, the silver bell-like laughter of the wives and concubines is really more touching than any music.
After the meal, Yang Peng began to deal with official business. Han Bing, the general manager of the march in Luoyang, and Li Mubai, the envoy of Shanxi Xuanwei, reported to Yang Peng on the military and political situations respectively:
Li Mubai said: "All aspects of Shanxi's situation continue to improve, especially the development of population and handicraft industry. During the period when King Yan was away from Bingzhou, the number of new handicraft workshops registered by local governments increased by more than 60%. In addition, people from various places continue to pour in, most of whom are people whose hometown is in Henan and who fled to the south before. A few towns are already overcrowded!"
Yang Peng nodded with a smile and glanced at Li Mubai, "I already felt this when I entered the city! It was really a stream of cars and horses! Although it has not returned to the scene in its heyday, I think it is not much different. Yes! Mr. Li really did not disappoint me, very good!"
Li Mubai hurriedly bowed and clasped his fists and said: "I dare not take credit, but in fact this is all due to King Yan's majesty!" Yang Peng's expression became a little strange, and Han Bing said angrily: "Master Li, you don't have to imitate those officials in the imperial court! "
Li Mubai was stunned and said quickly: "Xiaguan is definitely not a flatterer! The reason why Xiaguan said this is because it is the truth." After a pause, "King Yan, Chief Manager, you may not know something. Those common people There are naturally other reasons for flocking to Bianliang, but the most critical point is that King Yan moved his seat to Bingzhou. King Yan is invincible in the world. Since King Yan's seat is in Bingzhou, the people Naturally, we will not worry that Bingzhou will make mistakes like before, so we can move in with peace of mind! The official said that this is due to the mighty virtue of King Yan, and it comes from this!"
Yang Peng smiled, Han Bing clasped his fists towards Li Mubai and said, "I have wronged you, sir, please forgive me!" Li Mubai quickly bowed and said, "The general manager's words are serious, I am ashamed to be a subordinate!"
Yang Peng looked at Han Bing and said, "Han Bing, have you received the order I sent before?" Han Bing nodded, cupped his fists and said, "As soon as the little sister received the order from the elder brother, she immediately ordered all the armies to prepare. , Now with just one order from the eldest brother, an army of 200,000 can be mobilized." Chen Xiao nodded, "Okay, now we will wait for the news from the Liao Kingdom!"
At present, the Yanyun Army's 200,000 directly affiliated legionnaires and Xuanjia Army are stationed in Bingzhou and Yanmen Pass. Yang Peng's plan is to mobilize these 200,000 soldiers and horses northward when the opportunity arises, leaving Yanmen Pass to capture the Xijing Road, and troops from other directions Then they all stayed put. It wasn't that Yang Peng didn't want to move, it was because the current military ration situation did not allow him to use other troops. …
In the middle of the night, after enduring Yang Peng's infinite caress, Chai Yonghui lay on Yang Peng's chest and fell asleep deeply; but Yang Peng was in good spirits, staring at the ceiling and thinking about things.
At this moment, soft footsteps came to the stairs, and then Xiaofang's voice came softly: "King Yan, Miss Han Bing is here, saying there is an urgent military situation." Yang Peng's heart moved, and he glanced at Huai Chai Yonghui, who was sleeping soundly, gently moved her body, got off the bed, put on clothes and pants, then turned around and carefully covered her with a quilt. At this time, Chai Yonghui was lying there. , immersed in sleep, there was a sweet smile on the corner of her mouth.
After all, what happened next will be explained later.
