Stepping into the quiet room and looking at the furnishings inside, Xiao Jing was slightly stunned, but then he suddenly felt enlightened and couldn't help but smile bitterly.

The two table tables are separated on the left and right, and are placed in equal positions, with no priority.

Zhang Cheng is making his attitude clear here.

tell yourself,

What he met was not Xiao Jing, but the commander-in-chief of the Western Army and the representative of Xiao Ding, the Grand Master of the Song Dynasty.

In other words, it is strictly business affairs and does not involve personal matters.

Of course, it also means that he has not forgotten the revenge of killing his father.

It’s just that state affairs are the most important thing, public affairs come first and private affairs last.

That's all.

The wall facing the quiet room door was painted white, and a huge word "forbearance" was so conspicuous. The word was written with a chopping and domineering style. With just one glance, Xiao Jing was sure that this word was definitely written by Zhang Cheng.

.

Such a murderous spirit is definitely not something that a man of letters could write.

It's quite similar to my father's calligraphy in his early years.

However, over the years, my father's handwriting has become more and more rounded. Although the murderous spirit in it can still be seen, it has gradually faded away.

It is said that a word is like a person, and for most people, it is almost a wise saying.

Except for a few people.

For example, take your second uncle, Xiao Cheng.

Standing in front of the word "forbearance", Xiao Jing looked at the word carefully.

It can't be said about the structure or the overall layout. In the eyes of some calligraphy masters, it has no artistic quality at all, but the eager momentum made Xiao Jing a little obsessed.

"The writing is not good, I'll make you laugh!" A voice came from the door. "It's just graffiti. I used to write it a lot when I was in Qinling. Sometimes I wrote on stones, sometimes on the dirt, and sometimes on peeling stones.

Written on a barked tree."

"The word "Uncle Shi" is really well written!" Xiao Jing said.

"This word!" Zhang Cheng laughed: "That's good. I really only have this word. I can barely read it, but the other words are terrible."

Xiao Jing said awkwardly: "Uncle Shi, that's not what I meant."

"I'm not telling lies. This is really the only word I can write reasonably well. There have been so many things over the years that have made me powerless, and so many things that have made me even want to violate my original intention, but there is no way, I can't

That's not possible, so I can only endure it!" Zhang Cheng said calmly.

Xiao Jing took a deep breath. He didn't know how to answer this topic.

Because he knew what Zhang Cheng was talking about.

"Just like my Zhang family and your Xiao family, I obviously have a grudge against your father for killing him, but now that you are here, I don't want to welcome you in like a distinguished guest!" Zhang Cheng said calmly and directly.

It was pointed out that Xiao Jing felt a little embarrassed.

"Uncle Shi!" Xiao Jing couldn't take it anymore.

Zhang Cheng suddenly laughed loudly, strode in from the door, walked straight to the left side and sat down cross-legged. At the same time, he stretched out his hand to signal Xiao Jing: "General Xiao, please sit down!"

Xiao Jing swallowed, nodded, walked to the opposite side of Zhang Cheng, and sat down cross-legged.

"Although the imperial court is now in a stalemate with the Liao people in the Jingxiang and Jianghuai war zones, on the whole, it is still the case that the Liao attack and we defend, the Liao is strong and we are weak. Although we defended, it was still very difficult.

Therefore, the imperial court hopes to open another battlefield to reduce the pressure on the main battlefield." Zhang Cheng said: "attacking the puppet Jin Dynasty and regaining Hedong became the best choice."

"Yes, that's why my nephew came to Jingzhao Mansion!" Xiao Jing said.

"The troops under my command that I can barely muster now only number in the tens of thousands, but the number that can really be used safely to attack the stronghold is only 10,000 people. And of these 10,000 people, at most half can be sent out, and half can be left.

We still have to guard Shaanxi Road, Qinfeng Road, and the other troops, as you know, have not returned home yet, so we cannot expect them to die."

"On the Western Army side, Tie Yaozi is pinned in the direction of Kucha. Although Qin Min's main force is attacking Huazizimo, no one knows whether he will suddenly kill a carbine. Bu Bazi is now surrendering to the city in the east. Dazzling Thunder

Zhai and other places are confronting Yelvhuan on the Xijing Road, but they are unable to escape. The only troops that can be extracted are Zhang Yunsheng's troops in Luowucheng and Li Yi's troops in Shentangbao."

"On both sides of us, no one can defeat Liu Quanyi alone. Especially once we take action, the Liao people will definitely intervene. They will definitely not tolerate us defeating Liu Quanyi and taking over Hedong Road. Therefore, we can only defeat Liu Quanyi if we join forces.

The enemy has the strength to fight!" Zhang Cheng said.

"My master said that many tribal armies on Qin Feng Road can also assemble a powerful army. As long as we fight well in the early stage, they can also be of great use!" Xiao Jing said with a smile.

"They can only fight with the wind, but they can't fight with strength!" Zhang Cheng said: "So I want to know why Xiao Ding wants me to be the main attacker? I'm not afraid of making my family's scandal public. With this little family background, it's really common.

I can’t afford to bother.”

"Zhang Yunsheng's troops have repeatedly left Luowu Village and rushed into Hedong to burn, kill and loot. Hedong has deployed heavy troops in this direction. Next, we will transfer Li Yi's troops from Shentangbao to that side." Xiao Jing said: "This will attract people.

Liu Quanyi tilted more troops towards Luowuzhai."

"If opportunities are created for me, I must have enough strength!"

"That's why I came to Jingzhao Mansion!" Xiao Jing said: "If Uncle Shi allows it, my nephew will lead an army to cross Hengshan and pioneer for Uncle Shi!"

"You?" Zhang Cheng frowned.

Xiao Jing smiled slightly: "My nephew has an army under his command. The number is not large, only three thousand. In the battle of infantry and cavalry, he is the best choice. He will never lose to Bubazi, the iron kite. When he came, my father also

As I said, if Uncle Shi agrees, my nephew will not need to go back and will directly take orders from Uncle Shi."

"Xiao Changqing is really trusting me!" Zhang Cheng snorted coldly.

"My father said that Uncle Shi is the kind of person who is devoted to the country, and he is also the person I admire the most, my nephew!" Xiao Jing bowed slightly. "It is my honor to serve under Uncle Shi!"

"Zhang Yunsheng's troops and Li Yi's troops, after the war begins, whose command will they follow?"

"Uncle Shi will formulate the strategy before the war begins, but in terms of tactics, we hope that you will not interfere." Xiao Jing said: "The Western Army will ensure that it can achieve the strategic goals you set."

"I don't trust Zhang Yunsheng very much!" Zhang Cheng sneered: "Don't forget, he is Li Du's son-in-law."

"General Zhang is a smart man, and his judgment of the current situation has always been extremely accurate! Therefore, in the past twenty years, General Zhang has never been on the wrong team. I believe he will not make a mistake this time." Xiao Jing said with a smile: "

Of course, if General Zhang is really confused, we are also capable of solving the matter."

"It should be like this. Xiao Changqing didn't have this intention, but Zhang Yuan is a person with seven orifices and an exquisite heart. Xu Shen is also a thoughtful person. If there is no arrangement after more than ten years, it would be a damn thing!" Zhang Cheng waved.

Wave.

Xiao Jing smiled and said nothing.

Zhang Cheng clapped his hands, the door of the quiet room was opened, and Gan Quan walked in with two guards.

The two guards opened the roll of drawings they were carrying and hung it on the wall, hiding the murderous word "nin".

That's a map.

"Now let me talk about my thoughts on regaining the entire Shaanxi Road and attacking Hedong Road. I believe Xiao Changqing must also have his thoughts, but let's see if our thoughts are the same!" Zhang Cheng took a picture of the map and said.

"My nephew is all ears!" Xiao Jing took out a document from his arms and placed it on the desk in front of him. "What father wants to say is all in this."

An hour later, Xiao Jing walked out of the quiet room with a smile.

Gan Quan looked at the unopened file on the case, and Xiao Jing's performance had already explained the contents.

"This is what the so-called heroes think alike!" he said with emotion.

"It should be roughly the same, but there should be some differences. Otherwise, Xiao Jing should have taken him away instead of leaving him here!" Zhang Cheng waved his hand: "Take it over and take a closer look, Xiao Ding

A general who has fought hundreds of battles has never lost a battle in his life."

"Actually, he didn't win against Yelumin!"

"I didn't lose either!" Zhang Cheng said: "If it were me facing Yelumin, I would definitely lose!"

"Not necessarily!" Gan Quan said with a smile: "In the past few years, I have witnessed your growth, Governor!"

"Speaking of growth, the next generation of the Xiao family has grown up again. When we were in Tokyo, Xiao Jing was only three or four years old, right? In the blink of an eye, he was as old as I was back then." Zhang Cheng sighed and touched it.

Touching his beard: "Time flies so fast!"

"Time flies so fast!" In Yinzhou City, in the residence of General Zhang Yunsheng of the Western Army, the Yongjun Division on the left wing, Zhang Yunsheng, with his bare arms and sweating profusely, stuffed an iron bar in his hand again

After entering the fire, he motioned to the man sitting on the ground to pull the bellows to stir up the flames, and said to the other guy who had just put down the sledgehammer.

Whether they are the ones pulling the bellows or dancing the sledgehammer, they all have gray hair and are old.

Zhang Yunsheng celebrated his 50th birthday a few days ago.

The leaders of the Western Army, Xiao Jing and Zhang Yuan, Tuoba Yangwei, Ren Duozhong and others all sent congratulatory gifts, and the birthday was celebrated with great splendor and excitement.

Blacksmithing is one of Zhang Yunsheng's hobbies. He has been obsessed with this skill since he was young. Now that he has money, power and leisure, he has studied this skill even more carefully.

The weapons he made with his own hands were not only exquisite in style, but also extremely sharp. The best one was almost as beautiful as Xiao Jing's black iron saber.

"Yes, time flies so fast!" The man sitting there who was working hard to turn the bellows laughed: "Back then, the general was not only the most courageous general in the army, but also a handsome and handsome man! Otherwise,

How can I become the son-in-law of an old general? In those days, there were countless people pursuing young ladies, especially those acid scholars who were the most annoying. They wrote acid poems and gave them to young ladies at every turn. Several of them were covered with sacks and beaten until their noses were bruised and their faces were swollen.

, but I don’t know who to seek revenge from!”

Several people laughed.
