Chapter 712 The reason I have to say
The servants of the Qian Mansion were still very nimble in their movements. After a while, a table was placed in the living room, and the food and wine were also put on the table. Lin Xiaoyao took a closer look, and hey, this is really a meal that only upright officials will eat. Ah, not only is there no meat, there is not even much vegetable oil. As far as the eye can see, they are all pure natural green vegetables.

"There really isn't any meat in the house, and it's hard to buy meat outside now, so I hope the generals will forgive me for my negligence."

Qian Lusong stood up, invited everyone to take their seats, and said apologetically.

"Hey? Master Qian is too out of touch to say that. What is the relationship between us? We are close comrades-in-arms. Don't say it's useless, even if it's just a cornbread, I, Lin, will eat it as a delicacy... ...Oh? You don’t know what a steamed bun is, anyway, it’s several grades worse than the food we eat now.”

Lin Xiaoyao explained to everyone with a smile, even if he was the first to set down the chopsticks, he still enjoyed eating vegetables without a little oil and water, with his eyes closed and an intoxicated look on his face, as if he was eating the best food in the world The food here is so-so, making Qian Lusong and others a little confused. Could it be that these green things without any oily water are really so delicious?

Qian Lusong was more puzzled than Fan Xing, Du Kang and others. He ate these things every day, and he was about to vomit, but he didn't realize that they were so delicious?Could it be that today the chef knew that a big shot was coming, so he made it delicious on purpose?
"Everyone, don't look at it, eat quickly. After traveling for such a long time, I have never had a chance to have a good meal. The opportunity is fleeting, and if you can't catch it, it will really disappear."

Seeing that everyone was looking at him without moving their chopsticks, Lin Xiaoyao couldn't help urging.

"Yes, all generals, hurry up and try our special dishes. Although they are all vegetables and not oily, they are also very famous dishes in our Yan'an Prefecture. Everyone, move your chopsticks quickly."

Under Qian Lusong's warm invitation, Hu Buhui and others finally moved their chopsticks, but the food in their mouths was slightly different from what they expected. Although it was quite fresh, it was not so delicious. Could it be General Lin? Haven't eaten good food for too long, and your taste has changed?

But it’s not right, General Lin didn’t eat less good things along the way, especially when he passed through the mountains and forests, when he didn’t let people catch a few hares and roast them, those wild game were better than these things. ah.

Not only Hu Buhui and others were puzzled, but Qian Lusong was also puzzled. The taste of these dishes has not changed, it still tastes the same. Is it really because I have eaten too much and can't feel how delicious it is? ?

Half an hour later, everyone was full after eating and drinking, and withdrew from the dining table, came to Qian Lusong's study, and continued to discuss business matters.

"Master Qian, let's continue talking about the Daliao incident..."

When Lin Xiaoyao talked about the business, everyone was shocked and could not help but sit up straight.

"Actually, I also understand your worries, not only I understand, I'm afraid everyone is worried..." Lin Xiaoyao looked at Hu Buhui and Sun Wenwu. They all fought against the Daliao people on the battlefield. , At this time, cooperating with Daliao, I am afraid they also have lumps in their hearts, but Lin Xiaoyao didn't take the initiative to say it, and they wouldn't ask.

"I can tell you two reasons. We must cooperate with Daliao, or the reason why we have to cooperate with Daliao..."

Lin Xiaoyao took a deep breath, paused, and continued: "The first reason is that Daliao's proposal is really too tempting. We must attack Xixia, but with our own strength, there is no doubt It will be delayed for a while, and after the war begins, how many soldiers will be killed or injured in Daxia? And if we cooperate with Daliao, not to mention that the time to conquer Xixia will be brought forward, but the sacrifice of soldiers will be reduced The reason is that we cannot refuse, even if it is the survival of one of my Great Xia soldiers, it cannot be refused..."

Qian Lusong had never been on the battlefield, so he might not understand Lin Xiaoyao's meaning, but Hu Buhui and the others completely agreed with Lin Xiaoyao's words. Even if it was just the most ordinary soldier, he was still their brother. For the brothers whose backs are handed over, which brother died in battle is an indelible pain in their hearts. If there is a chance to make them survive more people, it is to cooperate with the enemy once, so what?

"As for the second point... Heh! It might sound a little aggrieved to say it, but it's true..."

Lin Xiaoyao sighed softly and continued: "If Daxia does not cooperate with Daliao, it is very likely to give Daliao an excuse. If Daliao cooperates with Xixia again and attack Daxia together, then I will Xia Ke is really in danger! So, we really have no choice but to cooperate with Daliao."

Hu Buhui and other generals are straight-hearted, without these twists and turns in their stomachs, and they don't know much about what they heard, but Qian Lusong is different. He has the true biography of Yu Yunwen, and he can see these intrigues very clearly, so naturally he also knows Lin Lin The meaning in Xiaoyao's words is just that he still doesn't understand. Since Daxia has no choice and Daliao is so strong, how did Daxia fight for it and make Daliao pay such a high price?
But Lin Xiaoyao obviously didn't want to explain these things. He raised his head and saw that the sun was about to set, so he stood up and said, "It's getting late, we won't bother Mr. Qian anymore, please prepare Mrs. Qian well." As for the supplies, the main force of my Western Conqueror Army should arrive here tomorrow evening, and by then I will trouble Lord Qian."

"Wherever it is, these are what the lower officials should do. It is really the luck of the lower officials to contribute their own strength to the Western Conqueror Army."

Qian Lusong quickly stood up, clasped his fists and said.

"Since this is the case, Lin will not stay any longer. On the day our army triumphs, I will not get drunk with Master Qian!"

"Okay! I'm waiting for Lord Lin to return in triumph!" Qian Lusong shouted, his expression full of excitement.

"Farewell!"

"Farewell!"

After saying that, Qian Lusong sent Lin Xiaoyao and the others out of the Qian Mansion. At this time, the sun was about to set, and there were even fewer pedestrians on the street.

"Let's go back to the military camp quickly. As I expected, Zhilan's information has arrived."

Hearing Lin Xiaoyao's words, the expressions of Hu Buhui and the others were also shocked. After they learned that Yu Zhilan became their military advisor, they were also excited for a long time. It couldn't be compared, after all, Yu Zhilan could easily destroy the enemy thousands of miles away.
