Chapter 720: Are you convinced?(2/3)
Everyone turned around and asked, "What's the matter?"
The businessman wiped his sweat and said: "Some people in the army were making trouble earlier, targeting Deputy Envoy Yang... I heard that many soldiers were among them."
The shopkeeper was stunned when he heard this, "Why?"
The businessman said: "What's the matter? Those soldiers felt that the deputy envoy's training methods were too harsh. Some people said that the Northern Xinjiang Army has been practicing this way for decades and it has not changed. Why should it change when the deputy envoy comes?"
"Idiot!" the shopkeeper was angry, "It depends on the person to change the situation! The deputy commander led the army to fight, who has ever heard of a defeat?"
Everyone shook their heads.
"The training methods of these undefeated generals must be the best. Those fools go deep into the treasure mountain but come back empty-handed!"
"yes!"
"If anyone has an idea to make money and is willing to tell me, I will set up a sign for him, worship him morning and night, and regard him as a benefactor. But those warriors regard the benefactor as an enemy, idiot!"
"This is someone who is very competitive!"
The shopkeeper couldn't sit still and ordered the clerk, "Ask the boss to come and see the shop, and I will go to the camp."
Someone asked: "What are you doing in the camp?"
The shopkeeper said: "Eating hardship and enduring hardship is just like when we do business. Is it bitter? Bitter! But the harder it is, the more money it makes, right?"
"Yes! A businessman who has nothing to do all day long will have to lose all his capital and find a coolie to support his family after a short time."
The shopkeeper was very anxious and couldn't wait any longer, "My second and third sons are all in the army. I'm going to visit you now and ask who is involved in this matter. If anyone dares... I'll give him a beating!"
Everyone looked at each other.
"For this reason, the deputy envoy has good intentions, but some people regard him as a donkey. But our children cannot be like this!"
These words just dispersed.
…
The weather was hot, and Liao Jin couldn't lie down anymore, so he asked someone to carry him under the tree in the courtyard.
"Plant some flowers and plants there, and make a pond here." Liao Jin was planning the yard.
"Lang Jun." A servant came over and said, "Deputy Ambassador Yang is here."
"Invite him in."
When Yang Xuan came in, he saw a few servants digging the ground, making a mess on both sides of the courtyard. He couldn't help being happy, "Does Zhong Cheng want to dig a pond at home?"
Liao Jin shook his head and said, "Sit."
There was a mat under the tree, and Yang Xuan sat down cross-legged with his back against the tree trunk. "It turns out that my husband planted vegetables in the courtyard. It was good, but in summer, there were so many bugs..."
"So, I planed those vegetables. My husband is in Chang'an. I think he will be annoyed!" Liao Jin said.
"I thought your husband was not like this." Yang Xuan looked at him, "He likes to grow vegetables, but Zhongcheng likes flowers and plants. Let a person who likes flowers and plants face a vegetable field every day, what a feeling."
Liao Jin changed the topic, "How have you been feeling these past few days?"
"Watching with fear, walking on thin ice."
"Fear?"
"Not that much."
"Over the Northern Liao Dynasty, when the new emperor ascends the throne, the call for revenge for Helianfeng will become louder." Liao Jin said sarcastically: "Some people say that after the war, peace in Northern Xinjiang can be guaranteed for ten years. But what is peace?"
"Only with balance of power, or even superiority, can there be peace." Yang Xuan picked up a fallen leaf from last year and played with it, "You are the original sin if you are weak."
"That makes sense." Liao Jin rubbed his back against the tree trunk a few times, "You have to keep an eye on the Tanzhou side. If the Tanzhou army strengthens, you have to be careful."
"I know."
"You have to remember one thing." Liao Jin looked at him, "The lives of Beiliao people are worthless."
"There are still many places in the Northern Liao that are tribal. In addition, the Northern Liao is poor, and joining the army is a way to survive. Those who die in battle will receive pensions, and those who have made meritorious service will receive rewards. Therefore, there is no shortage of soldiers in the Northern Liao."
"It's good that you know this. What prevents Bei Liao from launching another war is not something missing, but low morale."
"I have ordered scouts to go deep into the grassland to find out the news."
"Where is the southern part of the town?" Liao Jin asked with a smile.
"The southern part of the town lies between Chenzhou and Tanzhou. It plays a big role in protecting Chenzhou pasture. As for sentinels and merchants, it is better."
"Businessmen can sell everything for profit."
"right."
The two chatted for a long time.
"Is your son naughty?"
When it comes to this, Yang Xuan doesn't feel sleepy anymore, "That kid has a bad temper. But it doesn't matter when he's young, maybe he'll grow up. It's too early to say anything at the moment. He's a mule or a horse. When the time comes, he'll be out for a run."
The two of them were talking slowly under the tree.
An hour later, Yang Xuan left.
Jiao Mingzhong waited for him to leave before coming in.
"Zhongcheng, earlier Yang Xuan..."
"Yeah!" Liao Jin hummed with his eyes closed.
"Yes. Previously, Deputy Envoy Yang went to the school grounds and sent out 500 people from the Chenzhou Army and lined up with 500 people from the Northern Xinjiang Army. The Northern Xinjiang Army was defeated..."
"If you don't accept it, I'll beat you until you submit!" Liao Jin nodded, "Being gentle in the army will only encourage the soldiers to be unruly. This kind of technique is not bad."
"Then we went to the river outside the city, and both sides went into the river together. The Northern Xinjiang army was timid at first."
"Old man, I understand." Liao Jin opened his eyes, "What the formation trains is not the art of war, but the courage and discipline. With an order, you will not move at all, and with an order, you can step into an abyss. Such an army can even hold a hand.
A wooden stick can still make opponents fearful. What a boy!"
Jiao Mingzhong lowered his head and said, "Deputy Envoy Yang ordered the two men to be captured by Kong Rui."
"Um!"
Jiao Mingzhong said: "Those two are veteran generals of Northern Xinjiang! Zhongcheng."
Liao Jin leaned against the tree trunk, and the sunlight filtered through the branches and leaves, reflecting the mottled look on his face. "He came here before and said this." Liao Jin pointed to the soil dug out on both sides, "My husband likes to grow vegetables, and I like flowers."
Trees, when I move here, I will definitely replace them with flowers and trees. Do you understand?"
Seeing Jiao Mingzhong at a loss, Liao Jin sighed: "I can no longer ride a horse with my legs. So who is in charge of the army? He can only be in charge. Since he is in charge, whether he likes farming, flowers and trees, it all depends on him.
Got him."
"But he ignored Zhongcheng."
Liao Jin smiled and said, "He came and talked for more than an hour. In fact, he just said one truth."
Jiao Mingzhong asked: "I dare you to ask..."
Liao Jin said: "Either he comes, or I come."
He looked at Jiao Mingzhong and asked, "Do you think I can come?"
Jiao Mingzhong lowered his head.
Liao Jin said: "I wanted to say something, but he said that it is too early to say anything at this moment. It is a mule or a horse. When the time comes, it will be pulled out and run around."
Jiao Mingzhong's eyes lit up, "Start a war?"
Liao Jin said calmly: "I'll wait and see!"
…
Yang Xuan left the Liao family, followed by He Lianyan and others.
"A bunch of idiots are so bored, Nan He!"
"Here!" Nan He stepped forward.
"The scouts went out to investigate the strength of the Liao army on the front line of Nangui City."
He Lianyan's heart trembled, "Mr. Lang is going to..."
Yang Xuan stopped and said calmly: "Since we want to scare those people with sticks and hammers, training is obviously not enough. Then, let's slap them in the face with a fight until they are subdued."
Han Ji asked: "What about Liao Zhongcheng..."
Will this be a bit embarrassing?
Yang Xuan put his hands behind his hands and looked ahead, "I respect him, and I will naturally consult him on matters that need to be discussed. But I don't want to have a mother-in-law hanging above my head all the time, nagging that this won't work, that won't work. This battle, by the way, Let him see if I take charge of Northern Xinjiang, it will be better!"
…
Rebellion is a big topic. If you wait until the end of the book, everyone will be confused. How did this revolt succeed? Army. Is your army so awesome? Why are they loyal to you? Why do those people and those forces support you? You? Why?
I have to describe and lay out all this...
"Brother Shen!"
"Um!"
