Yang Jian was very embarrassed. He wanted to take the initiative to lift his pants for the official, but he felt it was not appropriate.
But if you don't mention it, it really damages the dignity of the emperor. Showing off a bird to see the good news is probably an anecdote for the ages.
Fortunately, at this time, Miss Shishi, who had been numb on the bed for a long time, came over weakly.
"Mr. Lang, what's the big news?"
"Master, huh?..." It was only at this moment that the official Zhao Ji, who was so happy with Linggai, came back to his senses.
Finally feeling the coolness under his crotch, he mouthed the good news that he was reluctant to throw away. He quickly pulled up his pants with both hands and fastened the belt of his pants quickly.
Fortunately, fortunately, none of the people present are outsiders, and they won’t spread the word after seeing it.
After making sure that the waistband of his trousers would not fall down again, the official Zhao Ji smiled at the teacher girl.
"Do you know? It only took Xiao Gao half a day to break through one of the Twelve Military Divisions of Xixia, and captured more than 10,000 enemies..."
"This, so powerful?" Miss Shishi also widened her enchanting almond eyes in an exaggerated way, and her sexy lips also opened in an exaggerated way.
At this time, Yang Jian cleared his throat to remind the officials.
"Guan family, there is also a scroll delivered here, as well as a letter from Xiao Gao Zhuangyuan..."
"Quick, give it to me."
With the help of the teacher girl and Yang Jian, a picture scroll depicting the war scene unfolded in front of the official Zhao Ji.
The official Zhao Ji only glanced at it and saw that it was Xiao Gao's handwriting.
Looking at the city wall in the painting, the Xixia soldiers ran away with their heads in fear, while inside the city, gunpowder smoke billowed into the sky.
The Xia State flag on top of the city was either set on fire by flames or had been broken and fallen.
On the snowfield, those cavalrymen wearing red coats of the Song Dynasty were charging towards the city with thick smoke billowing out, holding their weapons high.
And a tall figure wearing purple official uniform seemed to be saluting someone with his hands.
At this time, a low cry came from the official Zhao Ji's ear. "Lang Jun, look at those clouds..."
Official Zhao Ji subconsciously raised his eyes and saw the fairy boat swaying in the sky.
But this is not the most outstanding thing. The most outstanding thing is the rolling clouds in the sky, forming a vague face...
"Isn't this me?" Zhao Ji, an official, exclaimed softly subconsciously.
As an art master with extremely high artistic attainments, the official Zhao Ji naturally responded.
"Xiao Gao must have wanted to share it with me because of this hearty victory."
"That's why, regardless of the hard work, he created this picture of ascending to immortality and defeating enemies overnight to tell me his feelings."
Having said this, the official Zhao Ji suddenly couldn't speak any more, his throat was choked up and his eyes were starting to heat up.
And Yang Jian and the teacher girl on the side had to admit that this Xiao Gao was really a very talented flatterer.
After a series of wars, he is still able to flatter the officials so much regardless of their hard work. How can people not be moved?
"This child has really sacrificed a lot for me..."
Official Zhao Ji gently patted the scroll with his fingers, as if he was patting his beloved disciple's shoulder in the past.
"Guan Jia, Xiao Gao is so powerful. He actually captured such an important Xixia town in less than half a day and captured so many enemies."
"Although the slave family doesn't know much about the affairs in the northwest, in the past, they killed hundreds of enemies, which is a victory that can be praised by the people of Tokyo."
"Xiao Gao has only been on the Shaanxi Road for less than a month. If he continues like this, he might be able to restore the Han family's old land for Lang Jun..."
Hearing the soft and gentle voice of Miss Shishi, the official Zhao Ji also believed it.
Only then did Zhao Ji, an official, remember that there was a private letter written by Xiao Gao to him, which he hadn't even had time to read.
Yang Jian followed the official's instructions, carefully packed up the picture of ascending to immortality and defeating enemies, and put it back into the scroll tube.
Over there, the teacher's girl was relaxing her arms in front of the iron stove, making tea and boiling wine for the official family.
The official went to the desk where he had painted before, sat down, and began to read Gao Zhang's autographed letter carefully.
Looking at the content of the familiar colloquial letter, it was like seeing Xiao Gao standing in front of him, respectfully and obediently asking for his instruction.
What Xiao Gao wrote in the letter was far more detailed than the victory report. He first told himself in detail that after he arrived at the northwest border, he met with many Western Army generals in Pingxia City.
The generals of the Western Army felt that they were still children, so they all disapproved of it.
But fortunately, I got the care of my master. The master asked me to bring those new equipment to the northwest border, which impressed those vulgar warriors hard.
After that, Master, you revived the imperial edict of those important generals of the Western Army, and enabled this disciple to finally capture the hearts of these northwest generals.
Only then was the whole army able to work together, taking advantage of the severe winter wind and snow, to march day and night for several days to reach the base of Jingyuan Fort, which is located in the hinterland of Xishou Baotai Military Division.
Afterwards, the flying thunder cannon that gained your respect, Master, really showed its power, directly bombarding those Xixia barbarians at a devastating speed, completely destroying the morale of the army.
Disciple, I was able to achieve a miraculous victory in such a short period of time.
Master, you have done a great job in all this...
#####
Zhao Ji, an official, watched with joy, and the corners of his raised mouth never bent down.
His beloved disciple's vivid descriptions made him feel as if he was actually there, witnessing this battle with his own eyes.
When he saw the second half of Xiao Gao's letter and carefully asked for advice, he explained that considering that the northwest border was sparsely populated, it was a sparsely populated area.
The newly occupied land was definitely not easy to defend, so I thought of the meritorious land system during the Qin and Han Dynasties.
Firstly, it allows the population to actively enrich the border areas. Secondly, after those soldiers retire, they will take root in the local area.
Once something happens, they can be recruited on the spot and directly form an elite army to resist the invading enemy. This avoids the hidden danger that the recovered old land will easily fall into the hands of the enemy...
Compared with migrating unarmed, untrained people are filling the border areas, which has many disadvantages in terms of cost performance and impact on people's livelihood.
Moreover, such a strategy does not need to be promoted nationwide, but only implemented in the northwest border.
This ensures that this method will not interfere with the land system in other parts of the Song Dynasty and harm people's livelihood.
"Okay, okay, you are indeed my beloved disciple. How can I not use such a perfect plan?"
Seeing this, the official Zhao Ji couldn't help but praised the crime loudly.
Looking at the official Zhao Ji who was happily reading the letter over there, Miss Shishi and Yang Jian had a tacit understanding and did not disturb...
