The Life Through Books of the Salted Fish Family

This was the first time that the King of England met Yan Huaiwen.

Many years later, he thought about it again and again, and he was not sure whether it was today or earlier, Yan Huaiwen had planned the world and pushed him onto that chair step by step.

He also thought more than once, if Xiaoan Village had not fled to Guanzhou at that time, but went elsewhere, who would benefit...

At this moment, the King of England only focused on what was in front of him.

The so-called statement of Mr. Tian is better said to be the statement of Yan Huaiwen standing behind him.

He understands Master Tian. He has worked hard in the past few years to guard the border for the people. Huju worked hard to build city defenses to keep the Beirong out.

All your thoughts are put here.

And like most Guanzhou officials, they only focus on their own one-third of an acre of land.

Without being tricked into opening the city gate in the autumn, it would probably be as Mr. Tian imagined. The people would live in peace, multiply the population, and cultivate farmland. This desolate black soil would gradually become rich.

The future is promising.

Unlike this Yan Hushu, who seems to be safe but actually has some surprises, all the changes in Huju over the past year have his shadow.

Xizhou and Beirong are all in his eyes, and he can respond to the current situation and plan ahead.

He came here today to see how the eldest brother of the Yan family compares to his younger brother Yan Huaian!

When they met this time, even though they hadn't spoken to each other yet, they could still feel the difference between the two brothers.

Huai'an seemed more down-to-earth and easy to get along with.

This Yan Huaiwen... looks really good!

The King of England is not exempt from vulgarity. He likes to see Yan Huaiwen like this, which is pleasing to the eye.

I couldn’t help but look at it a few more times.

Looking at Mr. Tian again, the contrast becomes even more obvious.

After all...it was the palace that owed Hu Ju.

It was with this complex thought in mind that he had a favorable view of Huju City.

The same is true for this petition.

Hu Ju regarded this moment as a good opportunity and wanted to leave the border to fight against Beirong.

The cold winter is not over yet, the ice and snow have not been removed, it is really not a good time to go to war.

But the King of England also had to consider Hu Ju's desire for revenge.

The last time someone came from the capital to express condolences to the heroic souls of Mr. Xiao and Mr. Zhang, he heard Mr. Tian choked with sobs and spoke generously. He was also touched by the words of people all over the city weeping and swearing blood revenge.

"Sending troops to Beirong is no child's play. When the army moves, food and grass go first. Now is the most difficult season in Guanzhou, and the cold disaster is particularly severe this year..." The King of England sat cross-legged and unassumingly on the kang in Lord Tian's back office. .

On top of the stove, water boiled and made a sound.

The prince hurriedly poured the boiling hot water into the teapot next to him, washed the tea first, then soaked it again, then quickly wrapped it in a cloth and stuffed it for a while to make the tea more fragrant.

He estimated the time in his mind and opened the cloth.

I chose Master Tian's best tea bowl, filled it with half of it, buckled the lid, and placed it gently on the Kang table in front of the prince.

Their prince likes to drink like this.

It doesn’t take much good tea leaves, the key lies in the stuffiness. It should be stuffy when making tea, and it should be stuffy in the tureen.

Let it dry until it's not so hot on your mouth, and it's almost stuffy, just right for your mouth.

There were only four people in the room at this time.

Mr. Tian pondered for a moment and said: "Your Majesty, I have mentioned this before, and there are still things that are not convenient for me to tell you. Please allow me to report to you."

"speak!"

"Our Huju militia intercepted the coal transport convoy that was privately traded between Xizhou and Beirong, and the harvest was... very rich!

The lower officials made their own decisions and distributed the skins and furs of cattle and sheep to the local militiamen. The cattle could be tamed for farming, the sheep could be bred and eaten, and the furs could be used to protect them from the cold.

The quantity of coal was so large that Huju did not dare to keep it privately, so he temporarily placed it in a safe place and asked the prince to send someone to take over the disposal.

The human slaves used for trading in Beirong were all the captive villagers of Guanzhou. They were afraid that the incident would be revealed and would be detrimental to the current situation, so they comforted and restrained them and would not let them go home for the time being.

There are also captured Xizhou soldiers who are witnesses of Xizhou's liaison with foreign enemies. The locations of several private mines that Xizhou concealed were also revealed by these people.

According to a rough calculation between Xianguan and Yan Hushu, Xizhou is rich and powerful. The King of Qi is amassing wealth and raising troops, and he is ambitious... Seeing that Xizhou has become a climate, we are worried. Although we have reported it to the court, this matter is of great importance, and we must not be in power. If the rumor leaks out about the government being discussed, Xizhou will raise troops. I don’t know how many people will fall into the flames of war. Guanzhou will be the first to bear the brunt.

What we are most worried about is that once there is a change in Xizhou, Beirong will take advantage of the chaos to invade. By then, Guanzhou will be attacked from both sides and will be in danger. "

The King of England remained calm on the surface, but his heart was filled with ups and downs.

He also thought in this way, and then he complied with the instructions sent by Master Tian and reported to the capital.

"Xizhou and Beirong have been in contact for a long time, and this transaction is not the first time." Mr. Tian said solemnly: "I boldly guess that Xizhou has had different intentions for a long time, and is connected with Beirong, not for profit, but to use it to contain us. Guanzhou Army.

According to the records in the county annals in previous years, if there is a disaster, the Beirong army will definitely come next year, and it will be more ferocious and cruel. We cannot just sit back and wait for death, we need to use thunderous means to strike first and be stronger! "

Mr. Tian's sonorous voice is shocking.

"The militia has explored the place where the Beirong tribes gather. If they can take advantage of it and attack it in one fell swoop, the Beirong will be unable to invade the border again for at least five years!"

Yan Huaiwen raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Mr. Tian without any trace.

This small detail was noticed by the King of England instantly.

"Does Yan Hushu have something to say?" King Ying suppressed the fierce fighting spirit stirred up by Master Tian and asked softly.

Yan Huaiwen bowed first, then lowered his eyes and said solemnly: "Your Majesty, Sir Tian's words have been kept."

"The Beirong have always lived in scattered places. When they rarely gather together, we have found out where they are gathering, calculated mentally and unintentionally, and are struck by thunder and fury. If we succeed, within ten years, there will be no worries in the north!"

The fire that the King of England had suppressed just now was rising again.

He muttered silently in a trance: "Thunder...strike of great wrath! Ten years...ten years!"

Mr. Tian lowered his eyes.

In other words, kill them all!

Yan Huaiwen told him that if the battle was successful, Guanzhou would be safe for ten years.

At that time, he was just like the prince at this moment, his heart was surging and he was restless for a long time!

He just spoke in half, thinking that it would be difficult to say too much.

But when Yan Huaiwen said it openly, the prince obviously couldn't hold it any longer, and his heart felt like it was on fire. He drank the tea again and again before putting it down, and then immediately picked it up again, feeling vaguely enlightened.

This seems to be what Huai'an calls...painted cakes.

Since Yan Huaiwen said it, he wouldn't just say this.

He paused for a moment to give the King of England time to react, and then said: "If we want to succeed, we need to hurry up. It's too late to ask for food and supplies from the capital, so we can only raise it ourselves."

“The most important thing is Xizhou, we can’t let them notice the movements of the Guanzhou Army.

Now that the private mines have been exposed, the imperial court will send someone to come. It is the time when Xizhou is shrinking. The prince has asked to take charge of Leshan Prefecture. The King of Qi also followed suit. Xizhou's eyes are on the transfer of private mines to the public and the decentralization of power in Leshan Prefecture. , the prince can send people to and from the capital to lobby in many ways. "

Yan Huaiwen spread the map he had prepared long ago on the Kang table.

Wang Deshan took the tea bowl away from the table at the right time.

Then Yan Huaiwen said calmly:

"Leshan wants to fight, and so do private mines!"
