Unparalleled Concubine

Ye Guo recognized the carriage, walked over quickly, bent down and got into the carriage, and then said to the people in the carriage with a smile: "Master, just write to me if you have anything to do, why not?" Come here to see me in person?"

Li Xin, who was sitting in the carriage, looked at Ye Mao silently, and said helplessly: "In the past three months, you rushed into the Shenji camp and the firearms prison, but there was no one there. People from Chen Guogong's mansion often come to my house to look for me. , and asked where the Duke of their family was hidden by me."

Ye Mao scratched his head in embarrassment: "I left them a message saying that I went to work, why are you still so noisy..."

Li Xin shook his head, and asked Ye Mao, "It's been more than three months, how are you doing?"

Ye Mao said with a smile: "This kind of thing that can kill people, I naturally have to figure out what's going on. Don't worry, uncle, although I'm not very smart, I have already figured out [-]% to [-]% of firearms."

Li Xin nodded with a calm expression.

"I received news that the Xianbei tribe in the north..."

"There's internal turmoil."

Li Xin said slowly: "Last year, Yu Wentao gnawed at us at the border and robbed us of a lot of property and people. After returning, the Helan Department began to trouble Yu Wenzhao. After several months, the grievances between the two sides have deepened." , according to the news from our north, the two sides have almost started to fight at this moment."

Governor Li took a deep breath and continued: "These nomads are extremely difficult to deal with. Even if they are defeated, they cannot be eliminated. They will come back in ten or twenty years, and almost everyone has horses. If you want to escape, the imperial court can't catch up."

"This time is an opportunity."

Governor Li let out a sigh of relief.

"If there is internal strife in the Yuwen Department, it is our chance to do something. I will take away a thousand soldiers from the Shenji Battalion for you, and let them go north with you. The imperial troops that He Song brought to Jimen Pass will all be under your command. "

"I don't ask you to be able to wipe out the Xianbei barbarians in the north."

Li Xin looked up at Ye Mao with a cold voice.

"But we must give them a hard time, so that they will not dare to look south for at least 20 years!"

Chapter 1152 Destiny is in the Miao!

The land of Jiangbei was conquered by Ye Mao's grandfather from the Northern Zhou Dynasty. Since then, two generations of the Ye family have devoted their entire lives to the northern border. A general who has served for almost 20 years.

For the Ye family, Jiangbei Wulu couldn't be re-occupied by those Xianbei people.

What makes the current Chen Guogong gnash his teeth even more is that in the fourth year of Yuanzhao, the Xianbei people aggressively attacked Jimen Pass, and the Zhenbei Army fought hard for several months, almost resisting the clan with one army. The army was almost killed and injured, and Jizhou City, which the Ye family had run for decades, had also become an empty city.

This great hatred has always been kept in Ye Mao's heart, and all he wants is to recover all the debts of the Zhenbei Army from the Xianbei people.

It was also for this reason that Ye Mao, who was not very studious since he was a child, threw himself into the Shenji camp with his still injured body and stayed for more than three months.

After hearing Li Xin's words, this tall man trembled with excitement. He took a few deep breaths to calm himself down, and then bowed his head deeply to Li Xin: "The last general...obey the command of the governor!"

Li Xin patted him on the shoulder and continued: "When you go to the north this time, don't rush out to deal with the Xianbei people. You have to re-integrate the Zhenbei Army first. Firearms, no matter how powerful they are, can only It is said to be auxiliary, but it is these Zhenbei Army who are really going to fight."

"The four Zhechong mansions that He Song brought over were only to support Jizhou in name. Most of these forbidden troops in the capital are children from the vicinity of the capital. If they were forced to stay in the northern border, He Song might not be able to hold them back. So they I can lend it to you to fight, but I can't stay in Jizhou to serve as the Northern Army for you, and reorganizing the Northern Army with a staff of [-] is the top priority."

Having said that, Li Xin took out a document from his sleeve, handed it to Ye Mao, and said, "This is a document from the Governor's Mansion. You should rest for a day or two when you go back today, and then take this document to the household. The Ministry asks for money and food."

"When you are ready, I will let the Thousand God Machine Battalion follow you to the north. You have been in the God Machine Battalion for so long. How and when should these people use them? I don't need to teach you, you can do it yourself. Just think about it slowly."

Ye Mao coughed, and said with some embarrassment: "Commander, among the soldiers of the Qianshenji Battalion, can you give me some veterans from the Southwest Army's Firearms Battalion? It's been a few months, but after all, I haven't actually fought..."

When the Southwest Army attacked the capital, the Ningzhou Army's firearms battalion was almost dead, with less than 300 people left, and the Hanzhou Army's firearms battalion had only 1000 left. After the Southwest Army entered Beijing, Li Xin Integrate these more than [-] people as the backbone of the Shenji Battalion, and then transfer relatively younger soldiers from the army to fill the Shenji Battalion. These veterans of the Southwest Army Firearms Battalion naturally became the instructors of the new recruits.

Today, the number of Shenji Battalion has expanded to 6000, of which only more than 1000 are veterans of the original Southwest Army Firearms Battalion.

Li Xin was silent for a while, then slowly said: "50 people for you."

"One hundred."

Ye Mao smiled and said, "Master, it's useless for you to keep them in the capital. Why don't you come with me to northern Xinjiang to make contributions to the country."

Li Xin shook his head helplessly: "Forget it, one hundred is one hundred, but these people are treasures, you have to protect them as much as possible..."

"Don't worry, uncle."

Ye Mao patted his chest and said: "If there is a real fight, I will rush ahead of them. If I don't die, they will definitely not die!"

Li Xin shook his head: "I promised Master Ye to take care of you, you won't die."

After a pause, he continued: "You go north this time, you know everything else yourself, I only ask you one thing."

"Please teach me, uncle."

"Even if the Zhenbei army has firearms, they only have one chance to face the Xianbei tribe. They must be beaten once and hurt so that these Xianbei people can be honest. According to my opinion, try to be patient. If there is no particularly suitable opportunity , might as well wait a moment."

Li Xin's voice was low: "The battlefield is changing rapidly. It's useless for me to say anything now. When the time comes, you have to decide for yourself. How to fight, I won't interfere with you."

After saying this, Li Xin, who was originally serious, showed a smile on his face: "Master Ye once told me before his death that you are 40% like him, and Master Ye beat Xianbei people for 20 years. It’s enough to beat them so that they dare not enter the customs for [-] years.”

Nomads are a particularly difficult point to deal with. If you can't beat them, they will bully you. If you beat them, they will run away.

Even if some talented and generous monarchs wiped out a certain nomadic people or drove them out of the northern border in one go, another nomadic people will appear on this land in the north in a few decades, and then the cycle repeats.

The nomads in another world fell in love with the Central Plains Dynasty for two or three thousand years, until the emergence of automatic weapons.

Hearing this, Ye Mao was excited. He bowed his head deeply to Li Xin, and said in a deep voice, "Don't worry, uncle, I know what to do."

After all, he turned around and got out of the carriage, and was about to go home to prepare for his journey north.

Li Xin opened the curtain of the car, smiled at his back and said, "When you get to the north, tell Senior Brother Ye for me that if there is nothing to do in Jizhou, you can go back to the capital and say that I have left him a place in the court." Great location."

Ye Lin was ordered to intercept Chong Wu, and ran back and forth on both sides. After Zhong Wu decided to return to Yunzhou, he followed Chong Wu to the north, and now he and He Song are stationed at Jimen Pass.

Ye Mao stopped in his tracks, turned his head and smiled at Li Xin: "I will definitely bring the words to Fourth Uncle."

…………

Because Ye Mao wanted to go north to reorganize the Zhenbei Army, the Household Department had no choice but to allocate a large amount of money and food to Ye Mao to recruit recruits in northern Xinjiang. 1000 people were selected from the Shenji Battalion, and they headed north happily.

At the same time, a major event happened in the capital.

Yushitai, a servant of Yushi Zhou Youyi from the palace of the seventh rank, in the main hall of Weiyang Palace, claimed to have found an auspicious piece in his backyard, and he wanted to bring it to the court and present it to the emperor.

Most of the censors in Yushitai have a lot of real power. Of course, the official censor, Yushi Zhongcheng, needless to say, the servants of the censor and the master book, etc., all cough to scare off the positions of civil and military officials, but the job of serving the censor in the palace is the only one. , appear to be some exceptions.

The main responsibility of this position is that when the emperor goes to court, they stand on both sides, staring at the civil and military officials in the palace, picketing some who are not serious, or their clothes are not neat, their hair is not straight, etc., which is equivalent to Weiyang Palace. The "discipline committee".

This errand looks majestic, but it is really not of much use. Not to mention the lack of money, it is easy to offend people. Because he is dressed in black, he is often nicknamed "black dog" by civil and military officials.

Even the supervisory censors from the eighth rank who are lower than them in the censor's platform can patrol the places and show off their power in the places, which is much better than the errands of the censors in this palace.

Zhou Youyi has been in this position for five years. He is 40 years old this year, and he has had enough of this errand. However, he is a fellow Jinshi who was born in the third class, and he has no backing. Fortunately, if there is no accident, he will stop at the position of servant censor in the palace for the rest of his life.

Therefore, he wanted to change his fate against the sky.
