The sun was fierce. Although there was a heavy rain yesterday, the branches and leaves on the treetops were still half dead, and the cicadas were even more twitching...

"Squeak...squeak..."

Cai Yan felt hot and irritable. From time to time, he flipped his body back and forth in the bamboo recliner, and the bamboo chair was also unable to bear the groan...

A sound of footsteps came into my ears. Cai Yan just used a palm fan to squirt twice, and his closed eyes still did not open.

"Dad!"

"Dad!"

...

One was sharper than the other, and he felt two little things hiking into his arms. Cai Yan knew in his heart that one was the eldest son Zhu Wanli, and the other was Saner Yelu Wanzhi.

Perhaps with a younger brother playmate, the eldest son, who is more dull, is also naughty and cheerful. One is as yelling as a "father" and urging in his arms like a maggot. Even if Cai Yan wants to pretend to be asleep, he will not be able to do so.

“Go away…”

"It's so hot, you're not afraid of getting sweaty..."

Cai Yan turned over and sat up, not going to see Master Anon, Guo Huan and others, but looked at Yu Liyan with a complaint.

"You are really good, wouldn't it be nice to keep San'er by his father Khan's side?"

Yu Liyan knew that he was irritated and was looking for trouble because he had nothing to do, so he was not afraid of him. After taking the palm-leaf fan from him, he sat beside him while driving away the heat for him...

"The father is free now, where can I have time to tease my children and grandchildren? Niu Niu still thinks that Zhi'er can learn more skills when she is with her husband. Besides... Isn't it good for Zhi'er to be with Li'er?"

Cai Yan had two big heads, and even if he had any dissatisfaction in front of his two sons, he could not speak too much, so he had to look at Anon and Guo Huan, a small cabinet.

"Why did Master Anon come with Mr. Guo? But is there something wrong?"

Anon pulled over a wooden bench and sighed, "Does Huanger know about Guanzhong?"

Guo Huan took out a letter from his sleeve and said solemnly: "I didn't expect that Zhao Gou was so cruel that he killed hundreds of generals of the Western Army and even slaughtered 30,000 rich gentry families. The small cabinet unanimously agreed that this matter should be spread throughout the world and that the world should see Zhao Gou's face clearly!"

Cai Hua nodded slightly and said, "This matter is presided over by the small cabinet. In addition, I will send letters to Mr. Su. Any letters sent to Chengdu from Chang'an and to Fujin will be reviewed by the cabinet masters. Any envoys from Chang'an will be arrested and interrogated, and will be sent to the Treasure Island of Japan to mine."

Not only Anon, but Guo Huan felt the danger hidden in the Song State, and even Yu Liyan, the youngest, also realized that something was wrong.

Yu Liyan shook his palm-leaf fan and frowned, "My grandpa, the Song State has reached such a point, so Zhao Gou still dares to attack the generals in the army. Will they take the lead in the fall when our Ming Dynasty fights with the female savages?"

Cai Hua curled his lips disdainfully and said, "Then Zhao Gou has never been a modest person. It is normal to make trouble behind his back."

Annon said angrily with a gloomy face: "Song State is not kind, then don't blame us for being ruthless! Why don't you send troops from Sichuan, Shu, Shangluo and Tongguan to capture the chaotic Shaanxi and Gansu in one fell swoop?"

Cai Yan looked at Yu Liyan and nodded repeatedly, and couldn't help but smile treacherously.

"hey-hey……"

"The Zhao family wants to destroy all the people's hearts and prestige accumulated in the Song Dynasty for a hundred years. Why should we stop it? Why should we give future generations more excuses to curse our 'rebellion'?"

Yu Liyan didn't understand for a moment and said in confusion: "The news sent by the First Division did not say... Didn't Zhao Gou also learn from us to divide the fields and recruit soldiers? Isn't my husband worried about hundreds of thousands of Song troops at all?"

Cai Yan patted his son's little head twice and smiled and said, "The Song army is in Bingzhou, and Hebei stationed a million troops. Wasn't it also caused by 100,000 Jin soldiers to slam it?"

"Of course, whether it is the Song army, the Xiang army, or the Baojia army, or the Volunteer Army, they are all very eager for the fields. If Zhao Gou really divides the fields for the soldiers, he will definitely gain the support of countless soldiers in a short period of time. Even if he uses some despicable means to kill countless gentry and wealthy families, the lower-level soldiers will bow their heads and surrender for a while."

Cai Yan said disdainfully again: "But so what? Can Zhao Gou change the fact that Guanzhong is short of money and food? Can he really turn the Song army into a strong army in the world?"

Cai Yan looked at Anon, Guo Huan, and the small cabinets with a serious look...

"No! You must always remember that the army is different from the farming people. The army is a double-edged sword, and it is also a wild beast that destroys everything!"

When he said this, Anon, Guo Huan, Yu Liyan... all looked solemn and serious.

Cai Yan said: "Everyone has a man-eating tiger lying under his heart. The army has a murder knife in his hand. It is closest to the blood. The tiger in his heart is even more cruel and bloodthirsty!"

"The peaceful and prosperous era is different from the chaos in the world. During the peaceful and prosperous era, the court has a strong ability to restrain himself. Even if a beast occasionally loses control and devours people, the five-clawed dragon of the court can easily be killed and subdued. But if the chaos in the world is in chaos, the dragon of the court will become a sick dragon that cannot fly in the universe. Occasionally, the wild beasts that appear will turn into wolves all over the mountains and fields, and will bite the sick dragon to death and swallow... until a real dragon is born!"

Cai Yan sighed, "As the world is in chaos, people's hearts will follow. If not, Zhao Gou would not have to kill Naquduan, nor would he have to kill so many Western generals."

Cai Yan thought about the letters sent by the First Division...

"Qu Duan, whose courtesy name is Zhengfu, was the son of the general of the Zhenrong Army. In the ninth year of Yuanyou, Dangxiang people invaded Jingyuan. His father Qu Huan died in battle. Qu Duan was only three years old."

"I lost my father since I was young and was in the Zhenrong Army, which was often invaded by the Dangxiang people, and I should know the difficulties of an orphan and widowed mother, but this Quduan was also a success. After a little older, he became a small soldier in the Zhenrong Army. Later, he was appointed as a cavalry army for his merits..."

"From a small soldier, fighting with the Xixia people in the front town of the enemy, and then growing into the third general of Jingyuan Road. You should know that such a general... is different from the third brother who served as the Zhenjiang Zhijun when he first entered the army."

Cai Yan looked at everyone and said, "A general who got up from the bottom layer by step, and was also a general who got up from the border where he fought for many years. Such a general was the most recognized by the soldiers at the bottom. Of course, such a general was extremely proud of his character. If he had no ability, it would be difficult to be respected by such generals."

Cai Yan looked at Yu Liyan and said, "The north of Jingyuan Road is the Xingqing Prefecture of Xixia, which is the most elite Dangxiang people and the most soldiers. According to the principle of "using literature to control martial arts" in the Song State, most of the literati were literati. Literary like Zong Ze was the general, and the third brother Cai Chong was appointed as the zhijun in Zhenjiang. Therefore, although Quduan was the third general of Jingyuan Road, he was actually the real number one soldier on Jingyuan Road."

"Qu Duan lost his father since he was young, and his relationships were warm and cold, and his world was in a cold state. Not only did he say that, Niu Niu also had a deep understanding of it."

"A person's growth has a lot to do with the environment. Whenever he wanders between life and death, he can grow from a small soldier to become the third general on Jingyuan Road, which shows that he is determined, arrogant and good at fighting."

Cai Yan sighed: "Song State is a literati politics. Literary people always want to suppress the generals and always try to make the rebellious generals bow their heads and obedient. If Qu Duan and his third brother suddenly hold high positions, they will naturally be easy to surrender. But Qu Duan is different. Generals who get up from the bottom, their confidence comes from themselves, and they are fame and fame that comes from one sword and one shot. Naturally, it is impossible to bow to Li Xiang and Wang Shu easily, and they are not very popular with civil officials."

"Civil officials don't like it, what about the military generals? Could it be that the military generals who are 'no second in martial arts' like Qu Duan?"

"When the Jin soldiers went south to invade Song, Xixia also went south to invade Song at the same time. Quduan was transferred to Li Xiang's army as a general. Because Li Xiang was incompetent, the Berlin Fort was defeated and the troops were defeated. At this time, Quduan conquered the defeated army with his own strength and turned defeat into victory."

"It is because Qu Duan's character is not favored by civil officials, and because everyone else is defeated, Qu Duan wins alone, so he was transferred to the Zhenrong Army, which was ravaged by the Dangxiang people, as a general, and was exiled from the third general on Jingyuan Road in disguise to become a young general on the edge."

Cai Yan pointed to the letter that was ravaged by his son and sighed: "Wu Jie and Qu Duan had similar experiences and were also generals who got up from the bottom. He once led a team of 1000 troops in the Jingyuan Army. During the Manichaeism rebellion, he followed the Western Army to Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and was promoted to the twelfth deputy general of Jingyuan Road for his merits."

"Maybe it's because one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers, or maybe Na Qu Duan is an alien in the Song army, and the relationship between the two is not very good. This is why Zhang Jun, Wang Shu, and Wu Jie killed Qu Duan and a hundred generals of the Western Army in one fell swoop, and Wu Jie also became the number one brother in Jingyuan Road in one fell swoop."

No matter which era, the border army will always be the strongest elite in a country. The strongest ones of the Song army are not the four armies in Kaifeng City, nor the hundreds of thousands of Hebei imperial guards, but the Western army that fights with the Dangxiang people every year.

Due to the deployment of front-line troops in the Song and Xia countries, the Jingyuan Army, which confronted the Western Xia Xishoubaotai Army, Jingsai Army, Xiangqing Army, and Xingqing Prefecture, became the strongest combat power in the Western Army.

In other words, whoever becomes the number one in Jingyuan Road will become the number one in the entire Western Army.

Due to the appearance of Cai Huang, the fate of many people has changed, but he cannot change the temperament, likes and dislikes of others. He should not like Wang Shu or Wu Jie. Although his death is different, he is still killed by them.

It would be fine if a group of small cabinets, but Anon, who had been a school teacher, could tell the right or wrong of his words, and he couldn't help but nod.

Anon nodded and said, "What Na Qu Duan is right. Na Qu Duan is not much different from that Yue Fei. Civil officials and generals are not happy, and death is inevitable."

Cai Yan nodded and agreed: "That's true, but Master Anon should know that although Naquduan was not favored by civil servants and excluded by cowardly generals, the soldiers at the bottom of the army were particularly trusted. After all, everyone was born by their parents, and no one wanted to follow the incompetent person and sacrifice their lives."

Everyone nodded and agreed again. Unlike the farming people, the army will cause countless casualties and injuries if one negligence is needed.

Cai Ying also said: "If Zhao Gou did not bring Kaifeng Imperial Army with him, the Hebei Army and Kaifeng officials from all over the world would not have caused dissatisfaction among the Western Army and the people of Shaanxi and Gansu. After all, Zhao Gou would definitely control the Western Army in his hands and would definitely send some generals to take over the entire Western Army, which also means that the rights of the original Western Army generals were lost. This is definitely not the Western Army would like to see the scene."

"Just like Wu Jie, Han Shizhong, Zhang Jun and Liu Guangshi who obeyed Zhao Gou, they all became the pillars of the Western Army."
