Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Daxing has Wuxiong Pass, which can be said to have been a barrier to protect Daxing from the invasion of Jiuhong for hundreds of years.  In recent years, Jiuhong has not invaded. In addition, Daxing's national power has declined. Except for Tianmen Pass and Zhenxi Pass, they have not been maintained for many years. To put it bluntly, once the war breaks out, the chronic diseases will kill the dying people.  Daxing's fate.

    Throughout Daxing, only Shaozhou and Cangzhou are still prosperous, but the former is mostly a gathering place for officials, nobles and their clansmen, so it would be strange if it is not prosperous; the latter is different, starting from the first governor Yun  Since ancient times, Cangzhou has been developing, and the speed is much higher than other places.  No one can really know how a border state like Cangzhou, which is remote and not rich in materials, can achieve this level.  []

    It is precisely because of the healthy growth of Cangzhou that Tianmenguan has been able to obtain sufficient support from the local government when the government's finances were tight. It is true that the influence of the Yun Family Army should be involved, but fundamentally speaking, local prosperity is the key point.  In recent months, Cangzhou's strong financial strength has been fully demonstrated. First, it repaired various facilities in Tianmen Pass on a large scale, then completely replaced and stockpiled weapons, machinery, and grain in Tianmen Pass, and finally provided a large number of related materials.  It is for the Yun family army to conduct battle drills.

    This kind of treatment is probably the envy of all frontier guards, but in the eyes of General Qin Zhongyuan of Tianmen Pass, this is a "sweet pain".  After fighting for a lifetime, General Qin knows the cruelty and unpredictability of war better than anyone else. This is a very contradictory and strange mood.  On the one hand, General Qin desires war more than anyone else. Without war, there would be no soldiers. Only on the battlefield is he a real general;  General Qin hates war more than anyone else. There is no victory without sacrifice. As long as he is on the battlefield, he will always lose brothers who have been together for several years or even ten years.

    "General Qin also sent news, saying that there will always be a small group of Jiuhong cavalry patrolling a hundred meters outside Tianmen Pass in recent days. Daxing and Jiuhong have not had any conflicts in five years, and suddenly the cavalry is sent to do such a sensitive thing.  Things cannot help but make people doubt their intentions! To prevent problems before they happen, it is better to believe that they are there than to believe that they are not. It is always good to make more preparations in advance. "

    Yun Buzhi looked at Yun Chang, nodded first, then shook his head, and said leisurely: "Old Chang, what you said is not unreasonable, but for this reason alone, those indifferent guys in the court will do something.  Are you alert? The war with Jiuhong has never been lost since the day I was here, but so what?"

    For some reason, Yun Buzhi's expression was very lonely, and there was a hint of contradiction, "If we calculate the right time, sit on the right location, and maintain harmony, we will naturally be unfavorable. But if we win, no one will sacrifice. If we win, there will be no sacrifices."  Are you sad? How many lives have we spent over the years to fill the bottomless pit of war? Is it effective?"

    Yunchang didn¡¯t know what happened to the always conceited and optimistic master today, why he suddenly became sentimental.  Silently adding a cup of tea, Yun Buzhi and Yun Chang had been together for too long, how could they not know what the old housekeeper meant?  "Old Chang, do you think I'm not normal at this moment?"

    "That's not true. I just think too much. Aren't you tired?"

    Taking a sip of fragrant tea, Yun Buzhi said: "How can I stay in Cangzhou for so many years without thinking too much? It's just that recent events have given me new ideas and new concerns."

    "Master?"

    "What do you think of my grandson?" Yun Buzhi suddenly looked at Yun Chang with interest, his eyes full of expectation, "You and he have a master-disciple relationship. I wonder if Master Yun is satisfied with this apprentice."  Son?"

    Seeing that Yun Buzhi was about to make fun of him again, Yun Chang smiled bitterly and shook his head, but he was still happy in his heart, "The young master has talent, but he is too kind-hearted. Although the young master has behaved a lot tougher in these months, I thought it was more  He is still forcing himself, in other words, he is not the real young master. If things continue like this, I am afraid that the young master may not be able to meet the master's expectations."

    ¡°Isn¡¯t it good to be kind-hearted?¡±

    "How cruel the king is!"

    "It seems that my grandson has no choice but to be a kind-hearted king, hahahahaha!" Yun Buzhi laughed, as if his mood suddenly took a turn, and the sky was clear, "Wouldn't this be too hard on him?  ?¡±

    Yun Chang thought for a while and said: "This kind of thing always depends on luck. I always have a plan. I think there will be no mistakes this time. There is no need to worry!"

    "Is this a perfect plan?" Yun Buzhi murmured, his hand holding the tea cup trembling uncontrollably, "If that were the case, I wouldn't have lost anything I shouldn't have lost, and I wouldn't have killed my brother.  , let alone let my grandson become an orphan! Do you know why I don't want to tell him these things? Because I'm afraid! I'm afraid that he hates me, I'm afraid that he will fall into a nightmare, I'm afraid of losing the only remaining life.  Blood relatives!¡±

    Watching it turnYun Buji was covered with dark clouds in an instant, and Yun Chang didn't know what to say, "Master, don't worry, maybe what the young master has found is another answer, and the young master is so kind, even if he knows all the facts, he probably won't hate him  Master, after all, it was the master who saved him back then."

    "I hope so. Is there any news in the capital?"

    "Eunuch Hu is still living well, but he has been making small moves in private. He has been trying to win over people's hearts during this period. He has bribed many high-ranking officials in important positions. He has not yet infiltrated the Ministry of War, but there is no guarantee that he will not in the future." Thinking of Eunuch Hu.  Yun Chang was not sure that anyone would be able to withstand such a horrific and cruel attack.

    "The living bastard finally realized that being isolated is uncomfortable. Congratulations!" As he said this, Yun Buzhi's expression did not look happy at all. "Old Chang, do you know that what I am most worried about is  What?"

    "Eunuch Hu has taken control of the Ministry of War?"

    "We can't start a war at this time!"

    Indeed, successive years of natural and man-made disasters have left Daxing, which was originally healthy and strong, haggard and trapped. If a large-scale war breaks out at this time, the military expenditures and materials needed to prepare for the war can easily drag down Daxing's self-supporting finances.  Once the great prosperity weakens due to this, or even enters its final years, the people will suffer when it rises, and when it dies, the people will also suffer!

    "Old Chang, we have to delay now. The longer the better, you know what to do!"

    "Yes, sir."

    Yun Buzhi lowered his head and looked at the map that had been laid out on several desks for a long time. There was a thick line running from east to west. It was the iron-blooded defense line that Daxing was most proud of - the Bingqiang. It had blocked Jiuhong from the territory countless times.  outside.  However, such an important line of defense has not been maintained and consolidated due to human negligence. Now, except for the part within the boundaries of Cangzhou, most of the other lines are in dilapidated condition. If it were not for the restraint of Wanqi and the four divisions, Jiuhong would never be able to occupy Mizhou.  , Daxing's defense line may have collapsed long ago.

    In fact, Yun Buzhi is also in a deep contradiction. He knows that Daxing needs variables to get rid of the eternal reincarnation and fateful ending, but he does not know whether this kind of variables can be afforded by the people.  The biggest difference between Yun Buzhi and other officials is not only that he has never lived a vegetarian life, but also that he has removed the distance between himself and the people. In other words, he does not have the inherent superiority mentality of ordinary officials.  Enjoying the fun of management and development is not for human officials, but for people and herdsmen.

    "Old Chang, tell Zhongyuan to conduct the drill according to wartime conditions, and I will find a way to gain time!"

    "Yes, sir."

    ¡°Inform the ¡®Five Elders¡¯ that they can start to shut up.¡±

    "Yes, sir."

    With Yun Chang leaving, Yun Buzhi fell into a new round of contemplation.  The Yun Family Army has been remembered for a long time and is a thorn in the side of many people. If a war breaks out, there is no guarantee that someone will not take the opportunity to cut off their own wings, even if they do so, they will pay an unbearable price.  Even if no one can touch the Yun Family Army, the war itself is a meat grinder. Hard battles and big battles will definitely be eaten by the Yun Family Army. The losses caused by this situation must also be considered.

    The strength of the Yun Family Army must be preserved to a certain extent. Although he carried out secret operations a few years ago, judging from the current situation, some things must be done in advance.  Sighing, Yun Buzhi walked to the window, looked at the clouds rolling in the sky, let the breeze blow on his face, and his thoughts returned to the past.

    ??Brother, Tianyin survived, and lived reasonably well. You should be able to forgive me, right?  I asked him to leave to protect him, but the blood of the Wanqi clan will eventually let him come back, right?  At that time, that is when I leave, and I hope that at that time, you can come out of "nothing" and let's have a good drink and get drunk!

    The fifth year of the Daxing of Tiande seems to be a normal year on the surface. Nine officials are still corrupt, the people are still in dire straits, and there are still dark clouds.  But if you look at it from a historical perspective, you will find that there is a trace of light shining through the thick ink sky above Daxing, which means that no matter how desperate, there will always be some people who become hope.

    Tianyin may be this kind of person. Looking at his life's achievements from the perspective of later generations, it is not difficult to find that the reason why he became the protagonist of this period of history is not only because of his outstanding personal abilities, but more importantly,  is the outstanding contribution of those around him.  As a core that can unite many people with different personalities, it is definitely qualified to become a symbol of that period of history.

    But now, Tianyin himself is not aware of the glory and bleakness of his future. He is still on the way to Lengshui Town; he also does not know that, like the last time, this trip to Lengshui Town will also have a profound impact on his life.  An extremely important impact, it can even be said to be a crucial turning point!

    So, when observers of history are scratching their heads and nervous,The creator of history is really happy.  As long as you go far enough, you will always arrive somewhere at some point, a place full of hope
