Kou Ji smiled and said: "It's better to prepare for a rainy day. Now I am not involved in political affairs, and you are not the privy envoy. I won't be able to say for sure later. If we can capture Hexi this time, we can help you plan after we return to Bianjing City."

Plan for the position of deputy privy envoy."

Zhu Neng's background is always too shallow.

It is simply impossible to take over the position of Privy Councilor from Gao Gao Gong.

But it is still possible to plan and plan the Deputy Privy Council.

Kou Ji originally thought that Zhu Neng would agree wholeheartedly, but he did not expect that Zhu Neng actually smiled and waved his hands and said: "Forget it, Privy Councilor, it's too uncomfortable to sit there like a clay Bodhisattva.

I still prefer to stay in the military camp.

Besides, anyone who can sit in the position of Privy Councilor has a dirty heart.

I'm not dirty enough to fight them.

If Hexi is captured this time, after returning to Beijing, you can ask the officials for a father-in-law to sit with you.

If there is anyone among my descendants who can succeed, he can be a privy minister."

When Kou Ji heard Zhu Neng's words, he was slightly stunned and nodded slowly.

He could understand Zhu Neng's thoughts.

Since the founding of the Song Dynasty, those who have sat in the position of privy envoy are either the founding generals, famous generals with family backgrounds, or meritorious ministers with official support.

Heritage, merit, and background are all indispensable.

Although civil servants can suppress the Privy Council, they have not yet reached the point of replacing them.

Zhu Neng's contribution is enough.

But the foundation and background are not enough.

He does not have a father who was a founding general, nor a grandfather who was a founding general.

From the time he became an official until now, he has always regarded himself as Kou Zhun's mazi.

If he ran over to pledge his allegiance to Zhao Zhen on the way, Zhao Zhen might not trust him.

Not to mention making him a confidant and vigorously promoting him.

If he wins this battle, he will be granted the title of Duke for his contribution to the expansion of the territory.

Among the top generals in Bianjing City, there will inevitably be one more from the Zhu family.

After his death, he could still be given a posthumous title with the character Wu or Zhong.

As long as his descendants are not too bastards and rely on his merits, they will have a smooth career in officialdom.

If the descendants become more capable and take some credit for themselves, they will be able to make plans as deputy privy envoys or privy envoys.

Zhu Neng made clear arrangements for his future life, and it was hard for Kou Ji to interfere too much.

Kou Ji thought for a moment and said with a smile: "With the friendship between our families, if I meet my brother in the court in the future, I will naturally take care of him."

When Zhu Neng heard this, he grinned brightly.

Kou Ji's future is bright.

Whether in the Song Dynasty or outside the Song Dynasty, he could prosper.

With him taking care of his children and grandchildren, his children and grandchildren will naturally not suffer any disadvantages in the court in the future.

Zhu Neng smiled and hugged Kou Ji, "Then I will first thank you for those incompetent people in the family."

Kou Ji shook his head and said with a smile: "With the friendship between our two families, there's no point in saying thank you or not."

Zhu Neng nodded with a smile and said: "Getting back to the topic... Since you have clearly arranged Xixia's reinforcements, we don't need to worry about Li Zhaoliang ahead.

Now we just need to wait here, wait for Li Yuanhao to be unable to sit still, run out of Yumen Pass, and then defeat him in one fell swoop."

Kou Ji pondered: "It is best to keep Li Yuanhao at Yumen Pass. This person is quite hostile to me and the Song Dynasty. Keeping him will always be a disaster."

Zhu Neng clicked his lips and said hesitantly: "It is easy to defeat Li Yuanhao, but it is a bit difficult to keep Li Yuanhao. You also know that the cavalry in our hands is always a step behind compared to the Xixia cavalry."

Kou Ji solemnly said: "Then block Li Yuanhao in Yumen Pass and don't let him come out."

Zhu Neng smiled bitterly and shook his head.

Li Yuanhao in Yumen Pass may have already made up his iron kite, plus the tens of thousands of cavalry in his hands. If he breaks out from Yumen Pass, Zhu Neng will not be able to stop him.

"The horse guards, artillery, and invincible mine cannons in my hands are all at your disposal."

"Then you can give it a try."

Zhu Neng said after thinking.

The two chatted about business matters and then some gossip.

After the chat is over.

Accompanied by Zhu Neng, Kou Ji left the Chinese army's tent, found the leader of the patrol horse guards, and ordered: "From today on, you and your party will be dispatched by General Zhu."

The leader of the patrol horse guard was a little hesitant when he heard this order.

"Young Master, these little people are your subordinates, not the soldiers of the imperial court."

Kou Ji curled his lips and said, "I'm just temporarily serving under General Zhu."

The leader of the patrolling horse guards shook his head, "That's not okay. We are in a war-torn place now, and we may encounter danger at any time. Brothers, we must follow you and protect you."

Kou Ji opened his mouth and was about to speak when he heard the leader of the patrolling horse guards continue: "This place is no better than the Shengchuan River. Brothers don't know much about the situation here and don't dare to leave your side rashly.

If an enemy comes out of nowhere and hurts you.

Those brothers will never be able to atone for their sins even if they die."

The leader of the patrol horse guard told Kou Ji in a cryptic way.

They are very familiar with the terrain of the De Sheng River and the enemy situation around the De Sheng River.

That's why I dared to leave him behind and go to De Shengchuan to fight.

But Yumenguan is different.

They have been in the Western Regions for many years, but have never been close to Yumen Pass.

He was not familiar with the terrain of Yumen Pass, so he could not leave Kou Ji's side.

Kou Ji wanted to scold the leader of the patrolling horse guards, but after careful consideration, he decided not to scold him for this matter.

They are subordinates, not servants.

The value and life of Kou Ji are one.

It's fine to curse on a daily basis.

But in serious situations, there should still be respect.

Kou Ji thought for a while and said: "That's it...since you guys don't want to, just follow me. Let the other patrolling horse guards go to General Zhu's command to take care of them. Is that okay?"

The leader of the patrol horse guard did not refute this time, but nodded.

Although they are both patrolling horse guards, there are still differences.
