Wanyan Chizha shook his head with a regretful expression: "I can't learn!"
"Why?"
 “Silver!”
“Huh? What does it have to do with silver?”
“Your Majesty is unaware of something. The old minister saw the strength of Liu Mingzhi’s troops and was naturally moved. Therefore, after returning from defeat last time, the old minister spent a lot of manpower and material resources to go to Dalong to investigate the matter.
 Later, I finally found out the cause of the matter, but I could only look at the plum blossoms to quench my thirst.
Lao Chen is definitely not talking nonsense, but there is really no way."
Looking at the Queen's curious look, Wanyan Chizha sighed silently: "Does Your Majesty know the food situation of Dalong's soldiers and horses?"
The Queen nodded understandingly: "Of course we know that soldiers get a piece of meat every ten days, and those who perform small feats will be rewarded with taels of silver."
“Yes, Your Majesty is right, our Kingdom of Jin is also following the example of Dalong.
Then your Majesty, does your Majesty know how Liu Mingzhi’s troops prepare meals?”
 “No, not very clear.”
“Your Majesty, you will receive one piece of meat every three days and one piece of wine every month, your salary and silver will be distributed as scheduled, and your pension will never be withheld. Those who have meritorious service will receive three times their salary, and the families of fallen soldiers will be supported by the military.
 During the non-war period, they would conduct a military exercise called Sheep Capture every ten days.
　　The winning guard will be given wine and meat for that day's meal, while the losing guard will have to eat dry biscuits and watch them eat.
 That's why we created such a roaring and killing army.
Your Majesty, all those who serve in the army are poor people who don’t have enough to eat. You said that in the military camp, you live a life every day that you may not have at home during the New Year. How can the soldiers not work hard for the commander?
Liu Mingzhi regarded them as his brothers and sisters, and they naturally regarded the commander-in-chief as their brothers and sisters.
 Let me tell you something that shouldn't be said. If I were to follow such a commander, I would be willing to risk my life for him.

The Queen's delicate body trembled, and she looked at Wanyan Chiezha blankly: "How is it possible? How could he have so much money to support 300,000 troops and horses at such an extravagant expense?"
“Naturally, Dalong Household Department spent the money from the national treasury.”
"That's even more impossible. The Sixth Guards of Dalong Beijiang, who are also border troops, don't receive such treatment!"
Wanyan Chizha glanced at the Queen with complicated eyes: "Your Majesty, in fact, the salary and money spent by the household ministry in various countries can be as good as Liu Mingzhi's in the hands of soldiers and horses, but looking at the world, only Liu Mingzhi can do it.
He will not deduct a penny from his soldiers.
　　The money that belongs to the soldiers will naturally be able to do this if it works well. Your Majesty understands what I mean."
The queen sneered and nodded: "I understand, because Liu Mingzhi's family has a great business and a strong foundation, and there is no need to deduct money from the soldiers.
As for the rest of the soldiers, they were exploited at all levels. Even if the court explicitly prohibited it, some people would still take risks for money.
 The same is true for us at Daikin, right?”
Wan Yan and Chi Zha looked at each other and nodded with a wry smile: "Human beings are inherently bad and there is nothing we can do about it."
“That is to say, only Liu Mingzhi managed to spend every penny on the soldiers.”
“Yes, that’s right, so we can’t learn from it. Not only can we not learn from it, but Dalong’s six northern border guards can’t learn from it either, let alone the Turks.
Looking at the world, everyone may be short of money, but he, Liu Mingzhi, will not be short of money.
The little bit his father leaked from the cracks of his fingers to give him would be enough for someone else to embezzle a lifetime of income.
He treats his soldiers wholeheartedly, and his soldiers will naturally work hard for him."
“In the last national war, half of his troops went to the Turks, and half of them were in our country of Jin. Even so, he captured half of the mountains and rivers of Jin Dynasty. Now he leads millions of troops to attack our country of Jin Dynasty.
I really don’t have any confidence that I can withstand 300,000 battle-hardened cavalry who are as good as dead soldiers, plus 700,000 elite troops!"
"I second my suggestion. In this battle, I can only accompany the prince to fight to the death to protect my last dignity of Dajin."
The Queen looked at Wanyan Zha and the two men who were sighing in astonishment.
“When did I tell you that the person in command was Liu Mingzhi, a heartless man?”
“Ah? Isn’t it Liu Mingzhi who leads the troops? Apart from him, no one is more familiar with the situation in our two countries than him.
There is a saying in the Art of War: If you know yourself and your enemy, you will be victorious in any battle. How could it be possible that he was not in command?"
 “It’s really not him, but the new Zhongwu King Yunyang of Dalong who is in command!”
 The two of them took a deep breath: "Isn't it really Liu Mingzhi?"
"really not."
Wanyan stood up suddenly and started pacing in the hall.
“I have been dealing with this guy Yunyang for decades. Compared with the elusive tactics of Liu Mingzhi, I know his military habits very well.
