"Father, mother, uncle and aunt, what's wrong with you? Is there something on my face?" Ling Lei said in confusion, looking at the four people sitting on the chair with their mouths agape.
First of all, the two men who can take charge of the family woke up. Ling Tian and Ye Qian glanced at Jin Shi and Ye Yan in front of them, then looked at each other and smiled, and did not say anything about this aspect. There is a saying that is good, Everything was said without saying anything. Besides, if they said it now in front of the two of them, it would still not be good after all.
Because although Ling Lei is thick-skinned and has nothing to fear, Ye Yan is still a girl even if her personality is that of a boy. Even if she is thin-skinned and is not the most symbolic thing about girls, if they make this young lady unhappy, then they will definitely not There will be a stable life, but there will be things that are not good for others or themselves. Ling Tian and Ye Qian are both old foxes. How could they do it? Even if they are really curious and have strong desires, they will torture Ling Lei alone later. Isn't that enough? Why do you want to cause so many troubles?
"It's nothing. I didn't ask you to come here. It's just because the Yellow Turban thieves are ready to move again this year. In previous years, your Uncle Ye and I commanded the joint army to cooperate with the real city defense forces to defend against the Yellow Turban thieves. This year, you and I, Ye After some discussion, your uncle is going to let you take command and Yan'er will assist you. Yan'er has been familiar with military books since she was a child, which will definitely be of great help to you," Ling Tian said looking at Ling Lei with a happy face.
"What, father, this is the first year of Chuping. Wasn't all the Yellow Turban thieves led by Zhang Jiao wiped out because of Zhang Jiao's death? How could he appear here again now?" Ling Lei was very unhappy. He looked at Ling Tian in confusion. According to historical records, the Yellow Turban Thieves should have been extinct by 190. How could they still appear?
"My child, you don't know something about this. Although Zhang Jiao died, the Yellow Turban thieves have not disappeared. There are still small groups of people in various places. What we are about to face are the relatively large number of remaining Yellow Turban thieves. , there are a thousand people in total." Ye Qian said with a smile. After hearing this explanation, Ling Lei nodded with satisfaction. I don't know if it was because of the sequelae of time travel. There were many things that he could think of, but he couldn't. Get up, just like the question just now, he, a hard-core archaeologist, should not be ignorant of this, but he really forgot.
"Then how many troops do we currently control and how many are there in Zhending's city defense troops?" Ling Lei quickly got into the mood and asked Ling Tian and Ye Qian.
He graduated from a military academy and chose this profession because of his interest in archeology. He knows that if you want to win a war, you must first know yourself and the enemy. Only in this way can you win every battle. Only by doing this can you be considered to be heading towards victory. A big step has been taken. If we can make the best response plan by analyzing the strength of both the enemy and ourselves, we can win the war and minimize our own losses. This is the most important thing. Yes, after all, Ling Lei is not like Nuwa, who can't just pick someone out if one of them dies, nor can he spread the word to make an army. When one of them dies, there will be no more, and he has not saved any strength, so he has made a profit.
After Ye Qian made a gesture of invitation to Ling Tian, Ling Tian nodded and started to answer Ling Lei's questions. If he didn't have Ye Qian's permission, he would have been embarrassed to say it. It wasn't because of Ye Qian's position. Above Lingtian, on the contrary, almost all the marriages between the Lingye family and the Lingye family have been led by the Ling family for several generations. This is something that can't be helped, because the wives of the Ling family always have more ambitions, so they all come out with them. This is an era in ancient China where men were respected, which proves that whoever has more men in his family can be in power.
The army controlled by our two families totals about 500 people. These soldiers are usually supported by us. We are responsible for military pay, equipment, and armaments. The reason why we have so much manpower and material resources to build this army is It is to defend against people like the Yellow Turban Thieves who have evil intentions in their hearts. As for the city defense force, as far as I know, there are about a thousand people in total, and the weapons and equipment are provided by us. Ling Tian said with a smile.
I don’t understand why our three armies have a total of about 1,500 soldiers, and the weapons and equipment are pretty good, so why do I see in your eyes a disdain for these Yellow Turban thieves? What about fear? Ling Lei took a sip of tea in confusion and asked Ling Tian.
After saying this, Ling Tian and Ye Qian both laughed bitterly. In the end, it was Ye Qian who explained: My child, you still don’t understand our situation. The reason why we have the upper hand in terms of quantity, equipment and equipment is that we just The reason why we can defend Zhending City is because of two points. First, although we have money to build this army, although an army does not have money, it is not just a problem of money that can solve everything. What about the generals who serve as soldiers and the generals who train soldiers?
Then Ye Qian coughed slightly and continued: "Secondly, the Lord of Huang City is cautious by nature, and can even be said to be timid. In his eyes, we only need to unite together to hold on to Zhen Ding City, and the rest will not matter. It's our business. Originally, this group of Yellow Turban thieves only had a few hundred people at first, but because the Yellow City Lord didn't want us to go out to suppress the thieves, the thieves slowly developed and reached their current scale. It was because of the rise of the Yellow Turban thieves. The scale has caused the surrounding villages to suffer greatly!!”
"Asshole, this is such a stupid moment!!" If it weren't for his stupidity, how could he have caused so much harm to the people around him? When I think about it, hundreds of people are displaced and their families are destroyed every year because of this bastard city lord. , I was no longer helpless before, but now that God has allowed me to travel through time, I must not let this kind of tragedy appear in front of me again.
"Hey!!" Facing Ling Lei's anger, Ling Tian and Ye Qian had nothing but rogue expressions. After all, although they were more successful than ordinary people, they didn't have any big ambitions in their hearts. In their hearts, as long as they could Just protect your family. After all, it is impossible for everyone to be a god with great ambitions. How can we ask everyone to be a saint who cares about the comfort of the people in the world?
"Father, Uncle Ye, how long will it take until the next yellow turban bandit attacks?" Ling Lei asked the two of them with a serious face, a pair of black eyes flashing with the same brilliance, which is so awe-inspiring, Ling Lei Lei's whole body temperament has changed at this time. At this time, he is more like a monarch who dominates the world and is asking questions to his ministers. Although Yong is so respectful, his tone makes people involuntarily feel The feeling of being majestic and having to answer.
Ling Lei has lived for eighteen years, and during these eighteen years, he has passed away as a hopeless rich young man living among women. But now Ling Lei has been given a strong shock. This is the first time that he has passed away. Once, they felt Ling Lei's change. This momentum made Ling Tian and Ye Qian feel a little speechless, and they didn't know how to answer Ling Lei for a while.
"Father, Uncle Ye, what's wrong with you?" Ling Lei finally recovered from that strange feeling and asked the two of them at the same time.
After Ling Lei's extremely oppressive aura disappeared, the two of them wiped away the cold sweat on their foreheads, and then each gave a wry smile. Finally, Ling Tian replied: "It's nothing, based on the time in previous years. If they do, they have to attack twice a year. The last time was at the beginning of the year. This time there should be no mistakes after a month. Even if there are mistakes, they will definitely not last more than five days. Lei'er, why are you asking this? ?”
Ling Lei chuckled and said to the two of them: "Father, Uncle Ye, I want to ask you two to agree to my request."
Ling Tian didn't know why, but a smile appeared on his face at this time. In his eyes, the son who he once said had lived a mediocre life had changed and turned into a terrifying person. A person, or a powerful person, how could he not be happy when his son has changed like this?
"Tell me, is there anything else you can't say about the relationship between our two families? As long as you are willing to mention it, we will agree," Ye Qian said, looking at Ling Lei with soft light in his eyes.
Ye Qian's eyesight on people is definitely no worse than Ling Tian's. He has been familiar with Ling Lei for a day or two. The previous Ling Lei had never been in his eyes because he was promising, but because he did not damage the relationship between the two families, He has never shown it, but now Ling Lei has changed. Now Ling Lei is like Tianlong who has slept for eighteen years. Now is the time for him to wake up. When he flies to the nine heavens in the future, he will have all the world. When the time comes, if the relationship is not established now, when will it be established?
Ling Tian also nodded. He naturally agreed. What reason would a father have for not supporting his son?
At this time, Ling Lei stood up and looked around everyone and said: "Mother, housekeeper, Ziyi, aunt and Miss Yan'er finally came to our house. Please take them to have a good look at the scenery. Now is the time. It’s time for the flowers to bloom, don’t miss the time.”
After hearing what Ling Lei said, everyone was stunned for a moment, and then they showed expressions of realization. Now is the hot day when flowers are blooming. The reason why Ling Lei said this was because he made it clear that he wanted to put flowers in bloom. They just moved away, but it was absolutely impossible for Ling Lei to do this action before.
The first people to react were Ling Lei's mother and housekeeper. They immediately stood up and smiled at Ye Yan and her mother who had just woken up. They invited Datang out. Zhang Yun didn't know what Ling Lei meant at first. , but he was still dragged out by the housekeeper's father, so even though he didn't know why Ling Lei did this, he followed his father out very obediently.
