Chapter seven hundred and seventy fifth heart to heart
Natural home, living room.
Zhao Shutong put on a long skirt, and she looked like a fairy from the mountain. No wonder Old Huang drooled. Zhao Shutong was sitting in the living room, and outside were dozens of white deer cavalry guards with swords.
As for the foot of the mountain top garden, there are hundreds of White Deer Cavalry, all brought here by Zhao Shutong. Zhu Zhi and Huang Tingyu stood in front of the door, squinting at the White Deer Cavalry. These people are here
I don’t know who is protecting whom here.
In the air, a ray of fiery red sword light fell, and Lin Zhao came with his sword. He jumped off the flying sword and walked into the living room. He saw only Zhao Shutong alone in the living room.
"Lin Zhao, see Her Royal Highness the eldest princess!"
"The mountain master is welcome."
Zhao Shutong stood up and returned the courtesy with palace etiquette, very gentle.
In fact, Zhao Shutong's appearance is no less beautiful than Cao Ying, the most beautiful woman in Baidi City, and even a little bit better. However, Zhao Shutong is the core figure of the Dashang royal family, so there are many concerns about beauties in the human world.
The spread of the story will deliberately erase part of the eldest princess, so that the world only knows that Cao Ying of Xiu Yi Xuan is unparalleled in beauty, but does not know that the eldest princess Zhao Shutong is also charming the country and the city.
"I'm here this time to talk to you about something."
Zhao Shutong looked out the door and said: "Sword Fairy Gardenia, if you can trouble a ban, I would like to have a private chat with the mountain owner."
"..."
Zhi Zhi looked at Lin Zhao.
Lin Zhao nodded slightly in acquiescence.
The next moment, a powerful kendo restriction enveloped the entire living room, with only Lin Zhao and Zhao Shutong inside, shielding the rest of the people.
…
"The water in this garden on the top of the mountain is indeed clear and sweet."
After Zhao Shutong motioned Lin Zhao to sit down, he took a sip of tea and said with a smile: "Speaking of which, this is my first time to the Snowy Tianchi."
"How about the Snowy Tianchi?"
"very good."
Zhao Shutong nodded and smiled: "It's different from what he imagined. Lin Shuai built a world-famous arena on the Snowy Tianchi, and also established a powerful snowy cavalry. It can be said that he is better than the human race."
In terms of the world, Lin Shuai alone is better than an army of millions."
"Your Highness praised you too much."
Lin Zhao smiled: "Tell me, why did you come to me this time?"
"The matter of recruiting troops."
Zhao Shutong said: "When I went up the mountain just now, I had a chat with Chu Yu and Muzhen from the Snow Region Legion. I knew that Snow Region Tianchi lacked soldiers, especially cavalry. After several battles with the demon cavalry,
Snowy Tianchi has raised a large number of Yunxi war horses, but there are too few cavalry, so this is why we came here for this matter."
"Um."
Lin Zhao nodded. Indeed, although he borrowed 20,000 cavalry from the Snow Dragon Dynasty last time, after all, the snowy Tianchi is adjacent to the demon world, and small-scale wars have always been going on. The so-called iron-clad camp and flowing soldiers are actually
In wars, people are always dying. Veterans and recruits are constantly being replaced. Often, people are replaced several times in a continuous war. War is consumption, and what is consumed is national power and human lives. Lin Zhao understands these things.
But we have to face it, military strategists are like this, they cannot be soft-hearted.
Nowadays, the official cavalry of Snowy Tianchi is actually only a little over 3W, and Yunxi War Horse has a total of 60,000 to 70,000 horses. It is indeed a situation of empty troops, and without reserve troops, it will not be able to withstand several battles.
of.
"Shuai Lin."
Zhao Shutong said softly: "In the past six months, the imperial court has provided money and effort, and the leader of Yunzhou, Chen Xi, has personally presided over the recruitment of soldiers. Now it has finally yielded results. Chen Xi has recruited a total of 200,000 young people, all of whom are young people in Yunzhou.
The son of a generation, there has always been a saying in the human race that "heroes have emerged from Yunzhou since ancient times." Yunzhou has a vast territory. Although it is a bitter and cold place, the sons and sons raised by Yunzhou are brave and good at fighting and are invincible. These days, Your Majesty and I support each other.
After overcoming the pressure from the Jinan Palace and the Ministry of War, Xue Tianchi finally obtained the qualification to recruit soldiers in Yunzhou. You can take people to Yunzhou and select 30,000 young people from the 20,000 young men recruited by Chen Xi to join the Snow Region Legion. This
This should be considered good news, right?"
"It's not just good news..."
Lin Zhao said excitedly: "This is great news!"
"Um."
Zhao Shutong smiled slightly and said: "Actually, Commander Lin does not shy away from weapons. He recruited troops and horses to resist the four northern tribes in the snowy Tianchi. He is the true pillar of our Great Shang Dynasty. Logically speaking, Commander Lin guards the northern gateway for the human race. The Great Shang Dynasty
We should give our fullest support, materials should be given to materials, and soldiers should be given to soldiers. However, the obstruction from internal forces is the most terrifying. There are many traitors in the court. On the one hand, I want to help my brother consolidate the imperial power of this young emperor.
, On the one hand, we have to worry about external and internal troubles, which is really... a bit exhausted mentally and physically. Winning these 30,000 troops for Lin Shuai is the limit of what Shutong can do."
Lin Zhao solemnly clasped his fists and said respectfully: "Lin Zhao thanks Your Highness on behalf of Snowy Tianchi!"
"Um."
Zhao Shutong laughed softly and said: "Actually, there is another thing, but... it's a bit hard to say, for fear that Lin Shuai will refuse, and it is indeed a bit overstepping..."
"oh?"
Lin Zhao took a sip of tea and said with a smile: "Your Highness, tell me first."
"Um."
Zhao Shutong said: "Human Emperor Zhao Jingheng is my younger brother. I watched him grow up. This child has a very good nature, a really good one. When Jing Heng was very young, he respected the legendary snow very much."
Yu Tianchi Lin Baiyi, and even he himself wanted to take off his dragon robe, go to the Northern Territory to ride his horse and whip, and follow Lin Shuai. Jing Heng said that as long as Lin Shuai is willing to go to Baidi City, he is willing to accept Lin Shuai as his imperial disciple.
, I will serve you as my teacher for the rest of my life, and will try my best to help Marshal Lin return to the position of commander-in-chief of the three armies. From now on, the Great Shang Dynasty will no longer have the two positions of Da Zhige and Da Zhiyue. There is only one marshal, Lin.
Shuai, so... Jing Heng is in the palace and has no other skills, so he hopes Lin Shuai can go to Baidi City, he wants to see you."
"..."
Lin Zhao was silent for a long time.
Zhao Shutong pursed her red lips and said softly: "Commander Lin, don't worry too much. Jing Heng and I have never thought of blackmailing Commander Lin, using him as an external force to fight for imperial power, and to check and balance Zhao Qiyang, Lin Yan, Li Chunyang and others.
, Shutong is not that mean, and my brother’s respect for Lin Shuai is even more sincere and sincere, but the Great Shang Dynasty really needs Lin Shuai..."
"I know."
After Lin Zhao remained silent for a long time, he said: "But I can't agree to this."
"ah?!"
Zhao Shutong's pretty face was slightly disappointed.
"Your Highness, listen to me."
Lin Zhao said in a deep voice: "First of all, if I really go to Baidi City to see His Majesty, it will inevitably cause turmoil in the court. There are many people in the temple who don't want me, Lin Zhao, to go to Baidi City, such as Zhao Qiyang, such as Lin
Yan, and even your mother, Queen Mother He, no one is willing to break the original balanced situation except Your Majesty, so even if I want to see Your Majesty, I will definitely encounter many obstacles."
Zhao Shutong nodded.
Lin Zhao continued: "Secondly, if His Majesty really appoints me as the Imperial Master, I'm afraid it may not have a good ending. Firstly, although I, the Imperial Master, may be a big help for Your Majesty to take back the imperial power, it will definitely A lot of your Majesty's power has been divided. When the atmosphere in the court is clear and upright, I, the imperial master, will also act arbitrarily. If I don't want to retreat bravely, what should you and your Majesty do with me, Lin Zhao?"
Zhao Shutong frowned lightly and had beautiful eyes. She had thought about this before, but she would never say it out loud, but she didn't expect Lin Zhao to have seen through it all and said it out loud.
"so."
Lin Zhao said softly: "Your Highness, the relationship between you and me now is the best. I will not go into the muddy waters of Dashang, but when the human world needs my help, I will never hesitate. You go back and follow me." His Majesty said, be his emperor well. Although I, Lin Zhao, did not regard myself as a minister of the Great Shang in the Snowy Tianchi, I have always regarded myself as a minister of the human race and the world."
"knew."
Zhao Shutong smiled slightly: "Thank you Lin Shuai for being so candid."
"I don't want to be the last bit of chicken feathers."
"Um."
Zhao Shutong took out a holy edict from his arms and said: "This is your majesty's holy edict. If you take the edict and go to Tianji City to meet Chen Xi, you can naturally start selecting troops. In addition, your majesty will grant you a special pardon. Tianchi can set up an additional agency in Yunzhou to recruit grain and grass to raise grain and grass on its own, and Chen Xi will cooperate with this."
"good!"
Lin Zhao accepted the edict and clasped his fists again: "Thank you, Your Highness!"
Zhao Shutong smiled happily and immediately led everyone away.
…
Natural residence, evening.
Lin Zhao arranged a sumptuous dinner. Huang Tingyu, Zhu Zhi, Tang Guangjun, Chen Ben, Chu Yu and others were all there. After Zhang Luobai and Zhuang Yirong had eaten enough and went to play in the mountains, Lin Zhao sent Zhao Shu Tong said what he had discussed.
"This Zhao Shutong..."
Huang Tingyu frowned: "Why did she give you so many benefits for no reason? She is attentive to you for nothing, and is either an adulterer or a thief. Lin Zhao, I think she wants to trick you into becoming a housekeeper."
"ah?"
Chu Yu was stunned and couldn't help but smile.
Zhi Zhi also smiled and said: "Old Deputy Commander Huang, can't we stop talking nonsense?"
Lin Zhao coughed and said: "Zhao Shutong is public-minded, for the consolidation of the Great Shang Dynasty, even if he has some selfish motives, it is understandable, and our Snowy Tianchi does lack the troops of these 30,000 Yunzhou cavalry, so I have decided to dispatch dragon boats to Tianji City tomorrow to select troops, and I will choose one of you to go with me."
"grown ups."
Zhi Zhi has a sweet smile and recommends herself.
"I won't take you with me this time."
Lin Zhaodao: "After I go there, I will definitely have to deal with those officials from Tianji City. There are too many wrangling things, and you probably won't be able to handle them, Gao Zhi. Let's do this. I'll take Lao Huang with me, and the rest will stay to guard the snowy Tianchi. , don’t slack off.”
"yes!"
Everyone nodded in unison, and no one had any objections.
…
Late at night, Lin Zhao walked out of Tiantianju and looked at the starry sky. Since he was going to Yunzhou, another matter could be solved easily.
Yunzhou Lu family, there will always be retribution for the evil you do, it's just a little too late.
