Tao Gan's pitiful scream echoed in the night sky, and Cao Yi's face under the firelight was a little impatient: "The doctor has also found him, why are you still mourning there?"
Ye An smiled and said: "I have seen it. The leg bone is completely broken. I have made a splint with willow wood. But even if I soak his foot with willow wood, it is impossible to heal. I am afraid he will have to use crutches to move around in the future."
Cao Yi nodded slightly and showed a happy smile: "That's good. Don't worry, as long as he doesn't die, he can go to Tokyo City to appeal at most. But as long as he dares to go to Tokyo City, he will definitely feel better. When this is successful, someone will go there The official pleads guilty and is willing to accept the punishment!"
This time, it was Chen Lin who nodded empathetically and said: "I never thought that your Cao family would still have a real man who dares to take on the responsibility! I originally thought that uncle Li could help you establish a family in the Cao family, but I never thought that Li was also a good and unobstructed man. Don’t worry, someone will provide you with circumstantial evidence.”
Unexpectedly, Chen Lin would actually say nice things. Cao Yi was stunned for a moment and showed her signature flattery smile again: "The high official really understands the righteousness!" Seeing Chen Lin turned her head dissatisfied, she said again: "What does Changsheng want? Why don’t you take action when you’ve got the delicious food ahead of you?”
Ye An glanced at Cao Yi, then at the flattering smile of the Hangu Pass defender beside him, and suddenly asked Cao Yi: "Do you think the soldiers in Huanzhou will be like them?"
Cao Yi was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said: "Absolutely impossible! Huanzhou is a border state, and no matter how bad the commander is, he has some tricks in his hands. My father said when he was still here, as long as the soldiers of the border state, We are all veterans, and we can always win even if we fight against foreigners!"
Ye An nodded slightly. He believed what Cao Yi said. If even the border troops could not be relied upon, the Song Dynasty would have been gone long ago. It was only more than sixty years since the founding of the Song Dynasty. The country was on the rise. Although Zhao Er was a prodigal, But at least he still has a family background.
Zhenzong's Xianping rule can be said to have breathed a sigh of relief to the Song Dynasty, but it also squandered a lot. Guozuo of the Han Dynasty often began to wither after a hundred years.
The Tang Dynasty lasted less than 300 years, and there were several ZTE leaders.
An old professor once said that history is sometimes like a closed loop. When a country is just established, everything is going to develop for the better. Unless you mess around, you will usually reach the pinnacle of world civilization, and then start. It gradually declined, either because of party strife, corruption, relatives, etc.
Ye An glanced at Cao Yi and Chen Lin. The old Zhao family kept military generals and internal servants as a guard against thieves, but in the end they were destroyed by foreign enemies. This was rare in the history of the Han Dynasty.
As powerful as the Tang Dynasty, it was only destroyed by foreign enemies after its own chaos. However, in the end, the Han family played the role of the backbone and was not annexed by foreigners.
The only two dynasties that were truly completely destroyed by foreigners and inherited the country were the Song and Ming dynasties, right?
Hangu Pass is quite quiet at night. It is almost like a wilderness. Except for the pass, there is wilderness in front and behind. It is so quiet that it makes people feel isolated from the world.
"I wrote the Tao Te Ching at Hangu Pass, and rode out of the pass on a green ox. But now Hangu Pass is just a pass in our Song Dynasty, and it is still far away from the border! It can be seen that things are impermanent in the development of our Han family. quick."
Ye An seemed to be talking to Chen Lin and others, or to himself. The only thing he lamented now was that the development of the times and the progress of history had left people far behind.
Maybe he really has the power to change the times?
The small Hangu Pass stands tall among the cliffs, giving Ye An confidence, because in his opinion, no matter how powerful this pass is, the power of time can make it insignificant.
The diversion of the Yellow River water has created a large piece of land on the edge of Hangu Pass, and the army can completely bypass Hangu Pass and march eastward.
Time and change are the most powerful forces in the world, and no one can contend with them. If the Song Dynasty does not make changes, the future it will face will surely end.
Cao Yi and Chen Lin drank happily, but Ye An was a teetotaler. He almost didn't drink on the way because he was afraid that it would affect his brain and make wrong judgments.
The soldiers at the border pass are the key to the success of his plan. If they are all like the soldiers at Hangu Pass, then he has no chance of winning.
As long as the army can fight, it can be driven by any method. If you want money, give money, if you want fame, give fame, if you want official position, give official position. Liu E can still do this.
To be honest, Ye An is a layman when it comes to war. What he understands is the war of later generations. He can grasp the essence of war, decision-making and many other factors. But at the moment, he still has a fatal flaw. He has never really been to a major war.
The battlefield of Song Dynasty.
Because of the Huanzhou Rebellion, he is about to face the war of this era, but he has to design the party members. This step is really too big, and it is easy to drag his hips...
After taking a sip of wine and looking at Ye An, who was standing alone watching the stars, Cao Yi smiled: "Master Chen, look, he is still a young man after all. When he saw the appearance of Hangu Pass, he started to worry about Bianzhou. Have you been there?
You're from Bianzhou, don't you know the armaments of Bianzhou? Give this kid some slack, so that he won't have to eat and drink well along the way and feel uncomfortable!"
"This is a good thing, why should we give him relief? Taizu once said, he who is prepared for danger in times of peace is a good general!"
Cao Yi was in awe, cupped his hands and said: "Taizu was born in the army, so he is very knowledgeable! But this kid really shouldn't shoulder such a responsibility. Wouldn't it be better to be the prince of Yunzhong County for the rest of his life? Xinlingfang's business is completely
It's enough for him to squander his life, so who in business is not greedy? If it weren't for his noble status and literary background, he would have been eaten up long ago, and not even the scraps would be left."
"Without the protection of the heavenly family, what do you think? The sage said that Ye An is different. There are many talented young people, and young outstanding people are like crucian carp crossing the river. But there are few in the world like Ye An."
Cao Yi glanced sideways at Chen Lin: "So the saint regards him as a rough jade? He plans to pave the way for him... in order to assist the officials in the future?"
Chen Lin smiled, turned to look at Ye An, who had already boarded the Hangu Pass, and smiled: "Isn't he now assisting the officials? If he makes meritorious deeds, although the saint also has a holy name, so does the official.
in this way!"
Cao Yi smiled slightly but said nothing. The generals never choose any one force. They themselves are a force in the court. The game between civil servants is a matter between civil servants. What does it have to do with the generals?
The discord between saints and civil servants is not something that military commanders can reconcile at will, but Ye An really values military commanders very much, and does not have the condescending disgust of Fan Yong...
Taking a sip of wine, Cao Yi whispered to Chen Lin with the strength of the wine: "The saint thinks so highly of this boy that he is willing to put his reputation on him. What if he fails to ambush the party members?"
Chen Lin was suddenly startled, then calmed down and said: "It is indeed the Qilin'er of the Cao family! Your second uncle often praises you for your great strategy, but today it opened the eyes of a certain family, why don't you continue to pretend to be stupid?
"
Cao Yi grinned and said, "After all, you are just coveting that little bit of military glory!"
