Chapter 236 Delicate Balance
"Hahahaha! That's not right? I believe that a child can do all the things like reciprocating courtesy! Although the boy was born as a monk and is not a scholar, he dare not be disadvantaged in terms of etiquette!" Zhao Sigong He bowed to him and said with a smile.

"It seems that you are quite confident in the housekeeper that Shumi Tong arranged for you!"

"Even if the kid misjudges the person, Clerk Tong's eyes are as bright as a torch, and he will definitely not misjudge the person! Of course Xiao Ke can rest assured that he will use the person he arranges!"

"Facts have proved that it is really good! Your family handles the issue of courtesy and reciprocity seamlessly. The child treats people and treats things with great skill. It seems that Tong Shumi really cares about you, and he is willing to give you any good things! "

"Hehe!" To Gao Qiu's words, Zhao Si could only reply with two words, hehe!
When Zhao Si first entered Beijing, Tong Guan, Gao Qiu, and even many unknown important ministers, watched Zhao Si's rapid rise, and recommended people to him. Their eyeliner was everywhere, and of course it must be indispensable Zhao Si, the eyeliner of the Emperor's Imperial City Secretary, of course showed a frank and open look, accepting everything according to the order.As a modern person who knows a lot of underground struggle experience through film and television dramas, fooling a bunch of people from the Song Dynasty is of course like playing.Of course, through various methods, such as being wise and foolish to pretend to be stupid, or ground-breaking inventions, various means diverted attention, changed flowers and plants, and finally through a war, they successfully signed an armistice agreement with Liangshan. His own position secretly showed his own strength, so that everyone from the emperor down to the officials, but anyone with a little brain understood the weight of Zhao Si's existence.

In fact, this delicate balance is actually a kind of tacit acquiescence from the smart people in the court. It's not that they don't know that Zhao Si is the actual leader of Liangshan forces, but they pretend not to know, Because from the previous situations, they do not have the confidence to completely wipe out Zhao Si’s power, and they also understand Zhao Si’s position that he does not want to be an enemy of the imperial court (this position is weakened by presenting the secret recipe of gunpowder, promoting the country through science and technology, and offering advice and suggestions. The strength of neighboring countries, the mediation of the war between the imperial court and Liangshan, etc., are clearly stated! In fact, the war was obviously launched by Zhao Ji to test Zhao Si's position. Mediation!) Therefore, the emperor and those smart ministers acquiesced in the existence of Zhao Si's power. Although the ancestors of the Zhao family said that others could not sleep peacefully on the side of the couch, they dare not provoke Zhao Si now, because once the A large number of troops are invested in a decisive battle with the forces of Liangshan. The northern iron cavalry will surely go south, and all factors of instability will definitely rise up and sweep the world. At that time, it will not be certain who will win the battle. It is better to acquiesce in the current situation.

Zhao Si can only use "hehe" to express all the things that happened before, which means everyone is tacitly aware of it!

Gao Qiu said: "I heard that you have won a tiger general, and you are very skilled. I wonder if the old man is lucky enough to meet you?"

"Oh! Master Taiwei said that Mu Erzhong? This person is really good at martial arts. He is a charlatan. He was discovered by the boy by accident, so he stayed in the army and appointed him! He is indeed a general, but it is a pity that he is going to let him go. Lord Taiwei is disappointed. At present, this Mu Erzhong is leading a team of soldiers to go to the deep mountains to search for the fish that slipped through the net, because from the confessions of those soldiers, we know that there are still many thieves. They are determined to rebel and refuse to After coming out and surrendering, we got into the vast mountains and deep in the forest, and the next task of suppressing the bandits will be even more difficult..."

In fact, Zhao Si basically guessed the purpose of Gao Qiu's visit this time, so since he said it, of course he wanted to gag Gao Qiu's mouth.Firstly, this old boy must be urging him to take over the defense of Yanmen Pass, and secondly, he must want to see Lin Chong!After all, even though he had gone back, it was a breeze to arrange an eyeliner in Zhao Si's army.

"Oh...you mean to say that the task of suppressing the bandits has yet to be completed? If you really want to arrest these people who have hid in the deep mountains, when will they be caught? The old man thinks that you should take the order first. After receiving the decree, I will take up the post and take over the Yanmenguan city defense first, because the imperial court and Jin Guo have reached an agreement, and it is now a national policy to unite the Jin to destroy the Liao Dynasty, and military action will be taken soon. Important, for a talent like you who is good at fighting, of course you want to participate in this war at this time..."

So Zhao Si had no choice but to order someone to set up an incense table, kneel on the ground, and began to receive the order.

"Zhao Yingxing, the governor of Taiyuan Prefecture, received the decree and said: Zhao Yingxing, the governor of Taiyuan Prefecture, is good at fighting and clearing the Taihang for me. I am very relieved! Now that the strategy of uniting the Jin Dynasty to destroy the Liao Dynasty has been completed, Zhao Yingxing is specially appointed as the General of the Northern Conquest, handsome We have an army of [-]. We will take over the defense of Yanmen immediately and prepare for the conquest of Liao Dynasty! I appreciate this!"

"Minister Zhao Yingxing accepts the decree... Long live my emperor!" Zhao Si stood up after receiving the decree, and asked Gao Qiu, "My lord, where are my one hundred thousand soldiers and horses?"

"These three Yamen are planning to allocate. What can be given to you is actually only 2 forbidden troops, more than 3 Tianwu army, and [-] Xuanwu army. The rest are your frontier troops. They are poorly equipped and are all cold weapons. Because gunpowder students are restricted by confidentiality conditions, they cannot be produced on a large scale, so only the imperial guards in the capital have just changed their costumes! Now the imperial court is much more serious in terms of laws and regulations, and they will be sentenced to death every now and then, just to get more people Go produce gunpowder!" Gao Qiu said.

"This is simply a crime! What have I done, boy! I am Buddha merciful, for the sake of murderous weapons, so many death row prisoners are now sentenced. After the boy dies, he will definitely go to the [-]th floor of hell, and he will never be able to recover forever!"

"..." Gao Qiu couldn't keep up with Zhao Si's thinking, and he didn't expect him to be entangled in this problem, "Uh... there is no problem with the army configuration?"

"Well! Give me a month to wipe out the remnants of the enemy, and then take over the defense of Yanmen Pass, ready to attack at any time! As for the number of troops, it doesn't matter, the important thing is to have enough gunpowder!"

"This problem, in terms of logistics and supply, I'm afraid it's..."

"If things like Liang Shicheng and Wang Fu happen again, it will make me miserable. In order to prevent the entire army from being wiped out, and for the sake of the boy's life, the boy can't care so much. The boy himself will Try to make some gunpowder, of course, maybe the secret will be leaked..."

"You must not! Once the Hu Lu masters this thing, then my Great Song Dynasty will never be restored!"

"Then I would like to ask your lord to play Mingshang, the logistics are important, and there is absolutely no room for loss!"

"How about this, I will do my best to supervise the logistical matters! I have a reputation as a traitor, and I don't ask you to believe me, but you have to believe that I love my own life, and I also love my family business all over the Song Dynasty. , if the Song Dynasty subjugates the country, I will have nothing! Therefore, I am not confused about major matters..."

"The boy naturally believes in the Taiwei!"

"That's good……"
