Rebirth Handbook - Chapter 172
“Although the northern wolf army has been temporarily repulsed, it will harass the border again when their king’s account moves south in the coming year. Not only the wolf army, but the vast people in the southwest are also ready to move. I have always focused on writing, but now Powerful enemies from all sides are watching, so they can’t go on like this.” Pei Shunqing said solemnly and cautiously.
“What do you think Pei Aiqing thinks?” The emperor asked sternly while sitting on her head.
“The minister thought that when training troops to strengthen the country, to resist the invasion of foreign enemies.” Pei Shunqing slightly lowered his head.
“Training?” The emperor pondered for a while, then looked up at the others in the hall. The people here are almost all from the Hanlin Academy, and they are all his confidants, “What do you think?”
A middle-aged man who looked stable replied: “The minister thought that Master Pei made sense. The minister was thinking about this matter last year. He also asked Master Pei to discuss it. It happened that both Master Pei and the minister were in general ideas. These mentions are just that the wolf was invaded at the time and everything was complicated in the North Korea, so I didn’t find the time to say that it is just right now.”
“After the Korean mid-Korean regime, the generals withered, the army did not pick up the army, the soldiers were easy to obtain, and the good generals were hard to find. Now there is only one Sheng Yonghou who can be the overall situation. If there is a war in the future, I am afraid that it will suffer.”
Another man in a green robe said: “The officials also thought that the two adults were right. If you want to strengthen the country, you must not be weak. In the past, there was an invincible Sun Jiajun. When the name of Sun Jiajun came out, the world was afraid of no one. Dare to commit, how mighty, if I had such an army in Daqi, how would I be afraid.”
The emperor nodded his head again and again, why didn’t he understand this truth, but he had not taken the throne two years, and the mess before that had not been completely cleaned up, so he didn’t make time for these things. Now being reminded like this, he also feels that it is better to prepare early.
Pei Shunqing said again: “That being said, it is not so easy to train a strong soldier. Nowadays, the treasury is insufficient, and there is no way to train the troops, but you can choose a part first and try it… Qingzhou is from the south to Beijing. Not far away, the people are sturdy, and most men are brave and good at fighting. If you go to Qingzhou to recruit troops and form a good army, and when there is war in the future, you will be dispatched to fight, it will be a sharp blade that will open up a whole new situation for us. “
Another adult who hadn’t made a sound heard these words and said: “Take advantage of the winter to train soldiers for the coming year. This matter is also approved by the minister, but the location, the minister thought, Cangzhou would be more suitable. Although Cangzhou It is remote, but the man is not brave enough to go to Qingzhou. What’s more, Cangzhou is an important place in the northwest of the country. Training there can also deter foreign enemies.”
“Well, Zhou Aiqing also makes sense.” The emperor nodded, “Then train a soldier in each of the two places, so you can compete with each other to learn and help each other. As for the leader, can anyone choose the Aiqing?”
Pei Shunqing said: “Cangzhou Zhizhou Lu Yuqiao is a military prodigy. Cangzhou has been able to maintain stability over the years. Thanks to Lu Yuqiao’s dispatching, he has a close friend. He is the young general Jiang Haidao from Bei Daying. This man also made a lot of credit in the battle of Lang Rong. , It’s better to send this person to assist Lu Yuqiao to train a brave army.”
“Yeah.” The emperor said: “I’ve heard of this person, so let him be. There is no problem in Cangzhou. Where are the candidates from Qingzhou?”
Master Zhou said: “This candidate is none other than Sheng Yonghou.”
Others also nodded, “It’s true that there will be no war this winter. I am afraid that Sheng Yonghou will be bored in Southern Beijing. It is better to go to Qingzhou to train. I heard that Qingzhou Zhizhou also worked with Sheng Yonghou in his early years. The two should cooperate well.”
Pei Shunqing avoided suspicion and did not speak, just a normal look on her face, and she couldn’t see anything. The emperor nodded, “So, let’s make a decision, and we will announce again tomorrow.”
After a group of people went out of the palace after discussing the matter, the middle-aged man walked by Pei Shunqing and asked him: “Why do you suddenly say that you want to bring up the training of soldiers? I remember you said the matter was not in a hurry a few days ago.”
Pei Shunqing said: “Before I wanted to make a difference. For such things as beneficial to the country and the people, naturally, the sooner the better, and winter is a good time for military training. It is a pity to miss it.”
“Yes, if you don’t say it, I will say it in a few days.” Lord Zhou also stepped forward and said to the two of them with sleeves in their sleeves: “It’s better for you two to do things well, just slow. I’m not in a hurry, but I’m almost dying. How many letters the **** guy in Cangzhou sent me asking for someone to train and train. How could it be so easy to say, unless the time was good, it wouldn’t be so easy.”
“But I don’t understand one thing, Master Pei, why did you choose Qingzhou to train?”
Pei Shunqing smiled slightly, “Because Qingzhou is close to Beijing.”
“Oh, is it because this soldier is training to guard the imperial city?” The two adults of Master Zhou guessed, and each had a few words of discussion. Pei Shunqing laughed and said nothing. There are many reasons, one of which is naturally because he can’t arrange Yue Zhang to go too far away.
He had already thought about military training, but he never felt that it was time for it. Now it just happened. Not only could it solve the problem of military training, but it could also move an old mountain in front of him, killing two birds with one stone, well, very good.
The news that he had been sent to Qingzhou to train soldiers reached Sheng Yonghou, and he was really upset for a while. He was really bored in Beijing. It was no better to go to military training than to fight a war. It was safe, and he was still alive. He certainly wanted to go to Qingzhou to meet old friends, but his daughter really embarrassed him. It was like this in the past, when he went out to fight, he had to worry about his sick and weak daughter at home.
Later, his daughter married Pei Shunqing, and someone took care of him, so he was a little relieved outside. But now although his daughter is no longer sick and weak, she is too young now. How can he be relieved to let him leave such a small daughter at home alone.
“It’s better to talk to the emperor, and I won’t go anymore.” Sheng Yonghou thought about it for a day, and said to his daughter.
Ying Xian squeezed a round white stone chess piece and looked at her father when she heard the words, and then her always calm and indifferent face became serious. She put down the chess pieces and said to Sheng Yonghou, “Father, do you know that when the daughter died, she was actually a little happy, because the daughter died, and father will no longer have to worry about it in the future, even on the battlefield.”
Sheng Yonghou raised his eyebrows, “What are you talking about!”
Ying Xian waved her hand, “Don’t be angry first, listen to your daughter. The daughter has been in that ruined body since she was born, and how much effort father has spent in raising her daughter over the years, the daughter is all in his eyes. Daughter knows that father loves the battlefield. Compared to this gentle and soft Nanshangjing, he loves the Mobei Wasteland more, but because of his daughter, Dad has to give up many opportunities just to stay with his daughter.”
“In my heart, I have always been deeply apologetic. If I were not for me, how could my father be so unfree. I hope that my father can be happy and do what he loves without being tied to me. I am no longer in the past. For me, I’m very healthy and can live longer than my father, so father, don’t force yourself for me.”
“If Dad likes to do anything, go. My daughter will always be here waiting for Dad. Whether I am Miss Ying Jia or Mrs. Pei, I will always be Dad’s daughter. What is Dad worried about?”
Sheng Yonghou was silent for a long time and sighed faintly, “Pei Shunqing is a good man, I know. I’m relieved to give you to him.”
