Yao Song turned to look at Yan Li in surprise: "If this matter comes to pass, I will definitely report to the Imperial City Envoy and recommend you as..."
"Ashi doesn't have to be like this!"
Unexpectedly, before Yao Song could finish speaking, Yan Li immediately stopped him and said, "I don't want to rely on this little plan to achieve success in one fell swoop. It won't last long.
Sir, Hexi is known as "Listen to the opinions of hundreds of schools of thought and respect the ways of the saints". There are no taboos in any expression. If you take it from the sullen old scholars in Tokyo City, there will be people who will denounce Ye An's disobedience.
There will be people who will speak up for us and refute the ridiculous statement that "when the Yellow River is clear, saints will emerge"!"
"Huh?...This plan...is very clever!"
Yao Song figured out the key in an instant and couldn't help but exclaim in a low voice. His eyes looking at Yan Li became appreciative: "Well, it really is better to be a better person than a good person!"
"Hey! Why are you doing this, Chief? This is your plan. What does it have to do with my subordinates?"
Yao Song looked at Yan Li meaningfully and said, "Oh? Then I won't be polite!"
Yan Li glanced at the nearby government office and whispered: "Of course it should!"
Yao Song was very satisfied with having such a smart and capable subordinate. He couldn't help but say: "If you have any requests, please tell me. I will arrange it for you if I can do it. If you can't, don't force me to do it."
yes."
Yan Li was overjoyed when he heard this: "What Xiaguan wants is that his wife and daughter are by his side, and his parents are at home. This place is thousands of miles away from Tokyo. I beg the governor to send someone to take Xiaguan's family to Liangzhou City. This can be regarded as fulfilling Xiaguan's filial piety."
Heart!"
"I'm afraid you didn't bring your family to Liangzhou City to live a good life, right? Hey, I'm not as lucky as you. My family can only stay in Tokyo City. As a future official, you don't have such restrictions... It doesn't matter! It's convenient for me to do this.
, I will bring your family along with you when you pick up those sour scholars from Tokyo, and you can write a letter yourself to avoid any trouble."
Yan Li was overjoyed when he heard this. When he saw the side door of the field office approaching, he immediately knocked on the door and waited on Yao Song all the way to the back office.
Seeing his hospitality, Yao Song secretly smiled. This kind of petty official is the best to be driven. A little advantage can make him stand out. He even offered such a good idea to avoid disaster. How could he not be a favor?
After sending Yan Li away with a few words, Yao Song sat alone in front of the case, spread out the secret letter, and wrote down Yan Li's thoughts in great detail, adding his own summary.
In this way, the plan completely came from his hands. At the end, he would add a sentence at the end of the letter: "There are many eyes and ears in Hexi. This plan can prevent the officials of our Imperial City Department from being exposed, and it can also
Let the great scholar refute the absurd remarks!"
If I say the only disadvantage is, it may be the time to go back and forth, but don't worry about this. Yao Song knows that there is still plenty of time. Not only is there plenty of time, but the journey is easy.
In the past, it would have taken at least several months to get from Hexi to Tokyo City, but it is different now. It only takes a few days to reach Lanzhou from Hexi, because the roads are all paved with cement. If you use a fast horse, you can even get there.
It can be reached in less than two days.
As for the road from Lanzhou to Tokyo, although there are not all concrete roads available, as long as you arrive in Lanzhou, you can go directly south to the Weishui River. From the Weishui River, the rest is to go all the way east.
This route is very busy, because it is a route developed entirely by merchants. If the imperial court had not placed many restrictions on merchants in Hexi, it would be impossible to say that this cement road would have been paved from Hexi to every corner of the Song Dynasty.
But Yao Song knows that cement roads are almost everywhere in Tokyo. Ye An's factory and Puhui Company used the cement factory to make their fortunes.
Just when Yao Song was lamenting the transportation network in Hexi, Yelu Dalian and Tuoba Ao also started planning. A highly targeted attack was about to be staged in Hexi, and all of this did not escape the eyes of an old man.
"The Chazi of Tokyo City, the Yuwei of Xingqing Prefecture, and the Yinhou of Shangjing Road all took action, and the news from the Liao Dynasty that the Shangjing Road frequently mobilized troops was to gather at Yizhishui in the north of Xinjiang Prefecture, while Xixia
They are dispatching a large army near the Heluochuan River. If we include the Song Dynasty’s anti-rong army that has already assembled in Lanzhou... Yehou, with this situation, we in Hexi are worried about overthrow!"
Wen Zhongliang's old face was full of worry, and he couldn't help but worry. Hexi was currently surrounded by three beasts, and with the current strength of Hexi, it would be difficult to just fight against the Song Dynasty, not to mention Dang Xiang and
Khitan.
And Ding Xiaoyi has already led some of the elites of the Xi Lie Army to suppress the remaining forces in Heihan. Once the three countries join forces at this time, even if Hexi can still survive, it will lose a lot of land. The most terrible thing is that once Xinjiang Prefecture is captured by the Liao people,
The Silk Road will definitely be cut off, and the connection between Hexi and Anxi will also be cut off.
But to his surprise, Ye An was not too panicked. Instead, he stared at the changing arrows on the map and said, "Do you think the three countries will join forces to attack Hexi?"
"Such a troop deployment involves a lot, so I'm afraid it's not just a show."
Ye An nodded: "Yes! But it's also ridiculous. I am just a small place in Hexi, but I can scare such a powerful empire. This also proves the power of Hexi. When Li Yuanhao inherited his father's business, he became the ruler.
When the army was in trouble, the Song Dynasty and the Liao Dynasty did not join forces to deal with him, but they wanted to contain the Song Dynasty to provide protection..."
Wen Zhongliang took a long breath, collected his thoughts for a while, and then slowly said: "From the humble point of view, it is actually because Hexi is too strong. In the past, the party was weak and had many conflicts with the Song Dynasty. The Liao Dynasty was naturally willing to
reap the benefits of being a fisherman.
The party is weak but the Song Dynasty is strong, so the Liao Dynasty is willing to devote all its efforts to support it, but we are different in Hexi. The current Hexi is no longer comparable to the original troubleshooting army. Not only are we strong economically, we are still unbeatable militarily.
.
As Lord Marquis once said, there are ants hidden in the corridor, but not elephants. Black Khan's war of annihilation seems to have taken place in the far west, but for the Song Dynasty, Liao Dynasty and Xixia, it was
A warning.
Black Khan's strength is not weak. How could they not be frightened when the capital was conquered so quickly? At this time, even if we obey and rely on the Song Dynasty, I am afraid that what we will get is not peace between the king and his ministers, but suspicion!"
Ye An looked at Wen Zhongliang with a smile and shook his head: "Don't worry, I'm not stupid enough to rely on the Song Dynasty to compete with the remaining two countries. At this time, Hexi has embarked on a completely different path. Backing Mountain
It depends on everyone to fall, you can only fall on yourself!"
"No wiser than Ye Hou!" Wen Zhongliang crossed his hands and saluted.
Ye An smiled bitterly and said: "Actually, I knew from the beginning of the battle against Black Khan that we couldn't hide. The military parade that followed was just to put pressure on those who were eyeing us. I didn't expect that in the end, the Song Dynasty would rather abandon its own interests to fight with me."
Hexi turned against him."
"Since the founding of the country, Zhao and Song could not tolerate strong military generals. The generals have long been raised like pigs. Lord Marquis, you are in a league of your own. How can you escape the laws of Zhao Song's ancestors?!"
Looking at Wen Zhongliang's half-smiling expression, Ye An nodded helplessly and said: "Yes! At this time, the tradition of the old Zhao family is about to start to show up again. They would rather destroy Hexi's money bag than make unwarranted threats.
It would be too much torture to have them wiped out!"
"What is the result of Ruishitai's research and judgment?" Ruishitai is the strongest cavalry in Hexi. The Wei An Division is in the light and Ruishitai is in the dark.
Wen Zhongliang looked at Ye An with a smile and said: "The final result of the Rui Shi Station from the director to the surveyor, as well as the Rui Shi, is that we must fight to establish our foundation!"
As soon as these words came out, Ye An immediately said: "Well, it's the same as what I studied and judged before, but what I thought was..."
"Attack first...Lanzhou!"
"Attack Lanzhou first!"
The two people answered almost in unison. After speaking, Ye An and Wen Zhongliang looked at each other and laughed. The heroes saw the same thing!
