Young Master Liu was holding a military book in his study. While flipping through the military book, he was looking at the map hanging on the gun.
Except for Yun Qingshi, all the wives of Young Master Liu were gathered in the study, including the pregnant Qi Ya and Murong Shan.
The girls held their cheeks in boredom, their eyes lingering on their husbands who had been standing in front of the map for more than half an hour.
They glanced at each other from time to time and sighed silently. I really couldn't understand why my husband was silently looking at the map and letting his sisters and others do it.
Even Qi Ya, who understood her husband's thoughts best, covered her lips with her delicate hands and yawned, not understanding her husband's intentions.
You wanted to ask the sisters to refer to what you didn't understand, but it had been more than half an hour since the sisters came in. You didn't even say a word, you just stared at the map blankly.
When it comes to asking sisters to watch you set up formations, no one except sister Qi Yun and sister Shan'er present understands these things. It's like playing the piano to a cow. What's the point?
Young Master Liu nailed the map with nails dotted with red paint, casually closed the military book, clapped his hands, walked towards the chair and sat down.
"Ladies, look at the place where the nails are inserted into your husband's body. Do you have any ideas?"
Knowing that they didn't have to sit boredly in chairs and wait, the girls hurriedly stood up and gathered around the map.
For a moment, the sound of delicate discussion spread throughout the study.
The girls looked at the nails on the map and started chattering. Young Master Liu held a cup of tea and looked at the girls with interest. Young Master Liu would think deeply about every word they said.
One person is short-term, two people are long-term.
Liu Dashao, who had been thinking hard all night, came to the study at dawn, hoping to get a hint of inspiration from the ladies' casual words.
Liu Mingzhi never thinks that he is a person who has no plans. Many times, some people's casual words will give him a lot of inspiration.
"What are these twists and turns? Ying'er can't understand them at all!"
"I can't understand what your husband is talking about. Mountains, rivers, official roads? They all look alike, but they don't look alike."
"This is the left and right road between the six main cities in northern Xinjiang. There are official roads and trails. This side is the main road of the Jin Kingdom, and this side is the important tribe in the southern border of Turks."
Murong Shan had been in Yingzhou, northern Xinjiang for a long time, and with one word he revealed the key to Young Master Liu's map and solved the puzzle for the sisters.
"Sister Shan said so and we understand it, but what does the position of these nails connecting together mean?"
Qi Yun followed Liu Dashao on the Western Expedition and blurted out after thinking for a while.
"All the places connected together form a large formation capable of both offense and defense."
"Advance can be used to attack, retreat can be defended."
"Sister Yun, does that mean that your husband plans to use this as a criterion for national war?"
"My sister doesn't know either. My husband is mysterious and secretive. How can I know what he is thinking!"
"Isn't that right? My husband said that the one who knows his qualities best is Sister Yun. Sisters, don't you think so?"
"My husband has said more than once that before you were married, sister, you had many tricks up your sleeve at Dangyang Academy!"
"You stinky girl, stop talking nonsense. You should know these things best, Lian'er."
"After all, you measured it yourself first, and my sister is even one step behind you!"
Mr. Liu looked at the ladies with a black head as they got on the highway while talking. My husband asked you to come because he had an idea. He didn't hear you driving here.
Why have all of them turned into such female gangsters now? Where have the ladies gone who were so shy and speechless when they held hands?
"uh-huh"
"Be careful, you are the wife of the princess, aren't you afraid that it will be offensive to talk about these vulgar topics?"
Hearing their husband's words, the girls smiled charmingly and turned their attention to the map again.
"Young Master, someone from the palace said that General Liu Wei has returned to court, and you will be summoned to the palace immediately to see him!"
Liu Song's voice sounded from outside the door. Young Master Liu was paused as he drank tea, with a look of doubt in his eyes.
Crazy and they came back a bit quickly!
What's more, things went too smoothly. The Queen's letter promising her had yet to come to fruition, which meant that her daughter Xiao Yue'er would definitely participate in the national war.
In this case, Zhang Kuang and the others would not be able to come back so conveniently in order for him to take command.
Their return means that there are six more people vying for the head coach, and the chances of winning if you take charge are reduced by a few percent.
Could it be that all my ideas are wrong? I politely have another plan!
"I know, just change your clothes and go!"
I thought that the ladies could provide me with some ideas, but I never thought that they would drive together in the study room.
Young Master Liu shook his head helplessly and walked out the door to change his official robe.
As for Qi Yun and the others, they can't control it anymore. She is the one who is being severely exploited now.
After Young Master Liu arrived at the Qinzheng Hall, the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty had already arrived.
On the six cushions where the military attache's position was usually empty, there were six more people in armor. It was Zhang Kuang and his six generals who were in charge of the six guards in Northern Xinjiang.
Seeing Young Master Liu enter the palace, the six people winked at Young Master Liu and gave Young Master Liu a weird smile.
When Li Zheng went to sea in the past, when the Western Region invaded the border, Liu Dashao served as the military governor and had to deal with six old guys.
They also established a deep friendship at the beginning of their expedition to the Western Regions.
Not to mention Uncle Zhang Kuang, the other five people all have very good senses about Mr. Liu.
Young Master Liu responded with a slight smile and knelt down to his seat. In less than a moment of tea, all the civil and military officials arrived.
"Your Majesty is here!"
"I will see you, Your Majesty. Long live, long live."
“Free admission!”
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Li Baiyu's eyebrows were more relaxed than yesterday, and he glanced at the civil and military officials with a faint smile.
"My dear friends, have you thought about who will lead the Northern Expedition?"
"I recommend Yunyang, Duke of Jing."
"I recommend Liu Mingzhi, Duke of Dingguo."
"I recommend General Zhang Kuang to protect the country."
"I recommend General Wan Mingliang, Duke of Wu State."
""
In an instant, the court was once again in chaos. Zhang Kuang and the other six returned, and the civil and military officials had more candidates to choose from. The situation was naturally even more chaotic than yesterday when there were only Liu and Young Master.
Those who knew it were negotiating in the court, but those who didn't know thought it was in the vegetable market bargaining.
Li Baiyu frowned and looked at the civil and military officials who had different opinions: "How dignified are you? Be quiet!"
"I know that I was wrong, and please forgive me, Your Majesty."
"Since you, my dear friends, have a hard time making a decision, I think I will appoint the person to take charge."
After hearing Li Baiyu's words, all the civil and military officials were startled. They came back to their senses and looked at Li Baiyu silently, waiting for the result.
Liu Mingzhi quietly clasped the ring on his thumb, his face calm and unfazed.
"Old Zeng, declare the decree!"
"According to the decree."
The Grand Steward took a step forward and opened the imperial edict in his hand.
"The Emperor Dalong said."
"Since the beginning of Emperor Taizu, our dynasty has always adhered to the principle that others will not offend me and I will not offend others!"
"During the reign of the late emperor, there were few wars, he followed the law of heaven, and he pursued harmonious relations."
"To this day, Jin and Turks have suddenly launched armies to invade our borders."
"The past atrocities committed by thieves and bandits have been witnessed by all since the reign of the late Emperor."
"The Turks repeatedly invaded our borders, killed our people, and disturbed our borders!"
"As the king of a country, I can endure no matter what. I don't seek to be praised forever, but I only wish to protect the peace and tranquility of my people."
"Therefore, I decided to tell the world."
"Promote the king's division, defeat the bandits and bandits, stabilize the world, and create peace for all ages."
"Appreciate this!"
"Long live, long live."
"Jing Guo Gong Yunyang listens to the decree."
Liu Mingzhi's body froze, and the jade ring he was pulling was shattered into pieces by his grasp. He slightly raised his eyes and looked at Yunyang, who had become energetic from a drowsy state.
"Old minister, listen!"
"Jing Guo Gong Yunyang has high moral character and outstanding military exploits. In this northern expedition, he should be the marshal of the left army and command the main battle army of 250,000 in Huben, Xiaoguo and Heshuo."
"Rongwei Hou Cai Jun oversees the army, Huben General Yunchong, Gan Liangbo Dongfang Ming is the deputy commander."
There was no trace of surprise on Yunyang's face. He knelt down on one knee and saluted: "Old minister, I obey the order."
"Nangong Ye, Marquis of Yong'an, listens to the decree."
"Your Majesty Nangong Ye listens to the order."
"Nangong Ye has outstanding military exploits and a high prestige in the army. He should be the marshal of the troops on the right, commanding the main battle army of 200,000 men: Hubao, Huxiang, Feiying, and Longwu."
"Zhang Kuang is the protector of the country, General Hubaowei is the deputy commander, and General Huxiangwei is the warlord."
"I obey your orders."
"Dingguo Gong Liu Mingzhi listens to the decree."
"I'm here!"
"Dingguo Gong Liu Mingzhi, a young and talented man with outstanding military exploits and excellent military skills, should be the central army, commanding the formation, sharp soldiers, breaking captives, pagodas, fighting hundreds of battles, and the new army of six guards with fangs of 300,000."
"The imperial guards are all led by Song Qing as deputy commander. The Imperial Guards are all led by Jia Zhengjing as the military governor!"
"Appreciate this!"
"I obey the order!"
The Grand Manager put away the imperial edict and returned to his original position. Li Baiyu waved his sleeves, revealing the three printing boxes on the dragon case.
"The Ministry of Officials, grant the Tiger Talisman the Commander's Seal!"
"According to the order!"
After a while, the tiger talisman seal was handed over to the hands of the three people. Li Baiyu slowly stood up from the dragon chair and stared at the civil and military officials.
"The coach has been decided. We will suit up tomorrow and set off the day after tomorrow."
"Promote the king's division, defeat the traitors, divide the troops into three groups to rule the world, and create a foundation for eternity."
"I obey the decree, long live, long live!"
"Retreat!"
"Farewell to Your Majesty."
Boy, you still don’t understand the late emperor.
The late Emperor has already decided who will take command.
On the steps of the Qinzheng Hall, Young Master Liu held the seal of commander in hand and looked at Yunyang's retreating back. He opened his eyes and sighed at the piercing eyes, and was thinking in his heart.
"I have an army of millions in my hands."
"Father, it has been almost a year since Daxing, and the affairs of the court are still under your control. You really have no plans left."
"The unparalleled hero! The unparalleled hero!"
"Even if you die, you will be better than the rest of the world!"
"I surrender!"
"Plain words, you see, I won in the end. Rebellion is not so easy."
