Why did Mr. Kong turn into a mangy dog? Qiao Mu was very curious and hurriedly said: "What's going on? Please tell me quickly."
"That's it, today..." Zhang San told Qiao Mu exactly what happened in the Star-Zhaing Tower today.
"The person surnamed Kong lost. It was time to fulfill the agreement. She went to the street to shout, but suddenly ran away. Do you think she broke her promise? Is she a mangy dog?"
Qiao Mu shook his head and said, "I really didn't expect that Kong Ruyan would be such a person."
He asked why she was standing on the street today, surrounded by a group of people! It turned out that she had lost a competition with the eldest lady and wanted to shout "I am a talented woman" on the street.
The eldest lady is really awesome! She even surpassed Kong Ruyan.
"Fortunately, she is not the eldest lady's husband now, otherwise the eldest lady would have been taught bad things by her."
"That's true, but you haven't read the word "Da Madam" yet?"
"That's right, just read it out and let us listen!"
Zhang San had already forgotten all the words and poems. He only remembered what he was saying: ten years of life and death, and what if a knife cuts off the water, the water will flow again.
He pretended to be impatient and said: "If you want to know so much, just ask the eldest lady!"
"Hey! I think you just didn't understand or remember."
"that is."
Zhang San rolled his eyes at the two soldiers who were chasing him, and said angrily: "I'm just stupid, I can't remember it."
"Haha..." All the soldiers laughed.
next day
After Song Heng came down from the court, he walked out of the palace with Xuanyuan Liuyun and several generals.
"My young prince, I am afraid that disarmament is not possible! Although there is no war now, once disarmament occurs, the military strength will be weakened. What if the surrounding countries suddenly invade?" Wang Cangping, the general of Bixi, said with a frown.
He only has 80,000 troops and horses at his disposal. If he goes by the Ministry of War's instructions and cuts another 20,000 troops, then he will only have 60,000 troops. What can 60,000 troops and horses do in the event of a war?
Song Heng also nodded and said: "Yes! The border is still peaceful now, but who can guarantee that it will still be like this one or two years later?"
There is nothing wrong with the south and west. After all, Nanyue has just put down the civil strife, and the new king has just ascended the throne. What will he do if he can't spare his time for three to five years? The whole country in Xiling believes in Buddhism and will never stir up trouble. The north is not stable, and the northern region is not stable.
They are strong and warlike by nature. Because their land resources are scarce, the people from the Northern Territory have always wanted to occupy the Dongchen territory.
A few years ago, they attacked Dongchen once, and they happened to encounter a natural disaster. At that time, the Dongchen Kingdom almost experienced annihilation. Fortunately, the whole country was united at that time and forced the Northern Territory people back to their homeland.
Four years have passed, and the people from the Northern Territory have not dared to invade the border again. However, this is not a guarantee, and they will not come back again.
"Who says it's not the case!" Xuanyuan Liuyun frowned and said, "It is said that raising an army takes a thousand days but only a short time. When there is a war, all the soldiers rush to the front. When there is no war, we become the enemy.
Those who work hard will get silver coins for free."
As he said this, he rolled his eyes at the few civil servants who were walking in front.
