Being unable to distinguish one's own position is a common problem for most generals.
Qin Feng was patient and said seriously: "Why do you two think that you are hawks? Is it just because you two have been on the battlefield and are determined to fight against Beidi?"
"No, whether you are a hawk or a dove has nothing to do with whether you have been on the battlefield. It has nothing to do with whether you are a military general or a civil servant."
"Radicals are not necessarily hawks, but those who are hawks must be radicals."
"Although you two fought bloody battles and showed no mercy when blocking the enemy, you two are by no means radicals."
"On the contrary, you are very rational and put the overall situation first. Then instead of being a hawk, you are a dove."
"It is obviously inappropriate to use dove thinking to understand hawks."
"The officials in Beidi headed by Lu Li are the hawks in the true sense!"
"Do you think Han Yu and Chen Si are hawks or doves?"
The two looked at each other, unable to answer for a while.
Qin Feng didn't push him and let the two of them figure it out.
After a while, Zhao Yulong tentatively replied: "Doves?"
"After all, Han Yu and Chen Si are quite sensible and follow the rules..."
Before Zhao Yulong could finish speaking, Qin Feng had already waved his hand to interrupt: "No, on the contrary, these two are also die-hard hawks!"
As soon as these words came out, Zhao Yulong and Ning Hu both had confused eyes and were completely confused.
Zhao Yulong and Ning Hu couldn't understand Han Yu and Chen Si's stance, and Qin Feng didn't blame them either.
After all, they are professional soldiers who are only good at military affairs and have very little involvement in politics, so they lack political acumen.
But Qin Feng is different. Qin Feng and Chen Siben are old enemies, and this time they presided over the peace talks, they were even more tit for tat.
As the saying goes, if you know your enemy and yourself, you can fight a hundred battles without danger.
Although Han Yu was a civil servant, he seemed to be knowledgeable and abiding by the rules, but in fact, Han Yu never stopped him when faced with Lu Li's radical ideas.
On the contrary, Han Yu has been fully supportive!
Without the support of Han Yu, the deputy envoy, Lu Li's negotiation policy would not have been issued so smoothly.
At the negotiation table, Han Yu also tried his best to cooperate with Lu Li.
Let's talk about Chen Si. During the national war, Chen Si was able to defy all opinions and lead an army to directly attack Daliang.
Such a huge gamble shows that Chen Si is a radical.
I have to say that compared to Lu Li, Chen Si and Han Yu are relatively rational.
Qin Feng stopped and looked at Ning Hu and Zhao Yulong who seemed to understand: "Do you think my father and I are doves or hawks?"
Zhao Yulong frowned, pondered for a moment, and said softly: "Hawks."
The corners of Qin Feng's mouth raised slightly: "That's only half right."
"I'm a hawk and my dad is a dove."
"Don't look back at the time of the National War. My father was an unswerving advocate of war. The war was the result of his careful consideration, not his impulse."
"Compared to my father's strategizing, I prefer gambling!"
"Gaming is not my privilege alone. Since I can bet, others can naturally bet too."
"Therefore, the hawks in Beidi will definitely give it a go and find ways to get rid of me."
"If the entire Liang Dynasty swallows this bad breath and values peace, then Beidi will win the bet."
"If only we send troops to the north, and the saints watch with cold eyes, reap the benefits, and take this opportunity to weaken the strength of the north."
"Beidi still won."
"Only the Beijing and the saints are united and use troops together to attack Beidi, which can cause heavy damage to Beidi and make Beidi lose this big gamble."
"Two of the three possibilities are extremely beneficial to Beidi. Do you think Beidi should bet?"
After hearing Qin Feng's explanation, Zhao Yulong and Ning Hu suddenly realized.
At first glance, Qin Feng had an absolute advantage, but after peeling off the cocoon and pulling out the silk, he found that both sides still had their own way of winning and losing, and there was no telling who would win in the end!
Seeing that the two of them were silent, Qin Feng stopped talking and said straightforwardly: "Yulong, you should go back to Tianji Camp immediately and start preparing for the mission."
"There is no need to count the accompanying ministers. This visit to Beidi can be done by myself."
"But the accompanying troops and horses must be as sophisticated as possible."
"I want Beidi to understand that if you want to kill me, you have to go to war. If you want to use a small amount to gain a big gain? It's better to give up on this idea!"
Zhao Yulong's expression was extremely serious and he nodded heavily.
"Brother Qin, how many people are ready?"
Qin Feng was thoughtful, and after a while, he already had an idea in his mind.
"Don't move the soldiers and horses in Kyoto. You stay in Kyoto and continue to guard the Tianji Camp, lest someone plans to drain the firepower after I leave Kyoto."
"The soldiers and horses in Kyoto are related to the life and death of my father, second sister, third sister, and countless others."
"You directly plan to write a letter and mobilize soldiers and horses from Beixi County. Oh, by the way, the Tianji Camp guards and the Jinyi Anwu Guards all mobilize a small number of elites."
Zhao Yulong cupped his fists and said, "I'll do it right away!"
After watching Zhao Yulong leave, Qin Feng breathed a sigh of relief and turned to look at Ning Hu.
"Ning Hu, please contact Liu Ming immediately and ask him to order the Jin Yiwei messenger to give orders to the northern border."
"Beixi County troops and horses have officially begun to expand!"
"The guards of the Tianji Battalion and the Jinyi Dark Guards have all been expanded to 3,000 people. The number of Jinyi spies and messengers that need to be expanded is up to Mo Li himself.
"Black Cavalry and Beixi Qingqi will be doubled in size on the original basis."
"The infantry is divided into two strong brigades. The heavy armored infantry will be expanded to 10,000 people, and the light armored infantry will be expanded to 30,000 people!"
"These are not included in the Beixi garrison."
"Judging from the current scale of Beixi County's continuous expansion, at least 8,000 defenders are needed to be able to defend it competently."
"All of these eight thousand defenders will be trained by me according to the specifications of heavy armored infantry. They usually defend the city. If the war gets serious, they can be sent out for support at any time."
"By the way, let's inform King Ming, who will order the three generals in the north to restore the organization to the pre-war level."
Ning Hu was secretly surprised when he heard Qin Feng's series of orders.
The entire Beixi County troops and horses have almost doubled in size. Qin Feng is not satisfied with the current combat effectiveness at all, but wants to build the Beixi County troops and horses into a true expeditionary force.
He has the ability to send his troops northward at any time and penetrate directly into the Beidi Royal Court!
As for the three generals in the north, although they still obey the orders of King Ming in name, in fact, they have already cooperated with Beixi County.
Not to mention, for food and military expenses alone, the three generals must rely on Beixi County.
Restoring the pre-war establishment means that Qin Feng will use these three generals to guard the northern border and prevent any hostile forces from within the border.
Qin Feng... now he has to concentrate on dealing with all forces outside the country!
