Shi Ren paced back and forth thoughtfully, and the minister said to him: "If the Haupt tribe is not notified, the Little Northern Kingdom will be unable to withstand the attacks of the two empires and will be on the verge of destruction!" Other ministers also elaborated on their plans.
In short, the idea was to form alliances with other countries or seek help from the Haupt tribe. Seeing everyone arguing, Mrs. Shi Ren came in and said: "Ministers, there is no need to argue. I have decided to inform my father and send a letter." Shi Ren agreed.
After meeting this request, he issued an order: "All male citizens in the country who are over twelve years old and under eighty years old who can afford weapons must conscript into the army."
As soon as this order came out, everyone resisted, but Shi Ren issued another order: "If you don't join the army or have someone who protects and conceals it, your nine tribes and the nine neighboring tribes will be punished." Although everyone was angry, they did not dare to ignore it.
From then on, the voice of resistance continued to spread...
Relying on this order, Shi Ren cobbled together 30,000 infantry and 10,000 archers to set up defenses in Yongzhou City.
On the other side, Zhao Hongyan and the others finally completed their work and enlisted in the army. When they left, the hot wife specially packed some money for them: "There will always be some money used along the way, so you'd better accept it."
"Hot sister-in-law, why are you so embarrassed?" Chen Sheng held the package of food tightly in his hands, but said he didn't want it. "Then you won't let go until you don't want it!" Zhao Hongyan patted his lower back, and Yao Qiu puffed out.
Got happy.
"Don't argue with me. We don't need those at home. If we sell more wine, we will come back." After all, Zhao Hongyan and others couldn't refuse the hot sister-in-law's kindness, so they accepted the money. After the three of them thanked them, they hurriedly disappeared.
Lost traces.
"Mom..." The child tugged on the hot sister-in-law's clothes: "When will my brothers and sisters come back?"
"Son, we will meet each other eventually when there are no disputes in the world. After all, the world is really too small." The hot sister-in-law said, picking up the child and putting it on her shoulders: "Son, let's go home!" "Okay!"
," the two men finally left everyone's gaze and headed for the long way home.
Qingmeng and Mu Mingrui returned to Wanyang City. The next day, the old scholar talked to Qingmeng in the back palace: "Zheng Gongke and General Mu Mingrui led a small number of troops and horses to attack northward, while the main force was concentrated in Shannan.
This area. According to Xiaodao’s understanding, Wang Fu decided to launch an overwhelming army to attack Xiaobei, with a total of about 130,000 troops. In this way, other areas of the empire lost their supporting troops. I now order Gao Yu to lead the lord.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
More than 50,000 troops were stationed in the Shannan area, ready to attack, and when the two armies fought fiercely, they would steal new weapons. By that time, the Xiaobei Kingdom had been severely weakened and found it difficult to resist our country."
The old Confucian took out an old map, pointed to a peak near Yongzhou City and said: "This is Fushan Mountain. Fushan Mountain is surrounded by Yongzhou City. The last time Zheng Gong failed was because he was besieged at a mountain pass in Fushan Mountain.
But this time we should change the route, first capture the top of Fushan Mountain to put it into a passive defensive state, and then call in the new army to attack it, damaging the vitality of both sides. By then, our country will secretly deploy several armies to annihilate both armies in one fell swoop.
, the matter of annexing the two countries in one battle can be settled." Qing Meng was very happy after hearing the old Confucian's plan.
At night, the lights in Wanyang City were still bright, and the stars in the sky were twinkling. Qingmeng walked up to the platform and looked down at the people on the street. He had a panoramic view of the beautiful city scene - the carriages passing by, the streets with bright lights,
The noisy businessmen are all announcing the prosperity of the city to the world. Every smiling face is full of expectations for the future. Qingmeng is extremely happy at the moment, and she opens her mouth and chants a few words:
"I climbed up the stairs with high spirits, eager to see the stars and look back hundreds of times.
Look up and see the curve of the moon, looking down at the joy of all the people in the world..."
"What are Mr. Zheng looking at?" The old Confucian walked to Qingmeng and took out a flower: "This flower is called kapok, because it blooms red and is not vulgar, and its posture is upright and heroic.
The color of the flowers is as red as the strength of a warrior, and the color is like the blood of a hero dyeing the treetops red. The petals will not fall alone. That is the true nature of a hero."
"How can there be a hero in the world? Everyone will not be a true and kind gentleman like Gu Wenna. They will always have their own desires. No matter what they do, they must be good for their own interests." Qing Meng said calmly.
Said: "The emperor's so-called people-oriented purpose is just to consolidate his dominance, and the purpose of helping others is to get everyone to help him. In other words, everything in the world is based on ensuring that every participant
It was carried out under the condition that all benefits were obtained.”
"Yes, maybe everyone will not be a hero, or maybe everyone is a hero. When everyone can stand upright like Kapok and be willing to contribute his own interests to others to fulfill the interests of others, it may be
What people call a 'hero'." The old Confucian continued his words.
"I want to plant this kind of kapok tree to make the world aware of the so-called

hero."
"This flower is very good, a heroic flower..." Qing Meng sighed with emotion:
"Heroes will eventually go with the wind, but kapok will still remain in the world."
"Yes, I have been chanting for so long, but this sentence is really good. It is suitable no matter when it is placed." The old Confucian sighed: "Although heroes will eventually pass away, why does kapok still exist? Because the heroes'
The spirit lasts forever, and this awe-inspiring righteousness will be passed on forever. This is why kapok is still in full bloom." The old Confucian counted his fingers while reciting this poem:
"Heroes will eventually go with the wind..."
"Kapok blossoms in the world... What a beautiful poem. It will never go out of style in any dynasty or generation."
Qing Meng blushed and said with a smile: "The reputation of military advisor is too great, Qing Meng really doesn't deserve it." The old Confucian seemed to be talking to himself, and seemed to say to Qing Meng: "You still have a long way to go, I hope you can always be like this.
Like a hero, a flower will never lose its true character and will always stand upright. Ah Zheng, I may have found you back then..."
"Military advisor, what's wrong with you?" Qing Meng gently patted the old Confucian's shoulder, "No...it's okay..." The old Confucian calmed down and said: "It will take a few days for the army and horses to be settled before Zheng Gong goes on an expedition. Remember,
Let the new troops charge as much as possible, and our army can just sit back and enjoy the results."
Qingmeng ordered kapok trees to be planted all over the country. For a time, the supply of kapok seeds exceeded demand, and merchants imported a large number of foreign seeds, which further promoted the development of commerce in various places.
Proud and bright red kapok! How beautiful you are and how tenacious you are. You have no green leaves or colorful petals. In the severe cold and storms, those beautiful but useless delicate flowers fell one after another.
Next, there is only you. You are still full of passion and a heart that will never admit defeat. You proudly raise your flower bones and bloom in the wind. You have to show your truest and most original beauty without other embellishments. This is beauty.
.Those shy flowers will never understand the temperament of heroic flowers, and will never understand the joy of fighting the storm. They are just to make people laugh, and are flashy and useless.
Kapok stands at the highest point of the branches, looking down on other flowers, blooming like a hero. For the sake of light, it can break through all obstacles, become stronger when it encounters strength, and never chooses to bow its head, no matter how difficult it is.
