Chapter 59 Conversation between Weng and his son-in-law
Zhang Peng looked at the cheering people around him, and he knew that the people were excited about the triumphant return of the Beiting Army and the formation of the Luanming Army.
But he was not very happy, because he knew that forming an independent army was not a good thing.
It seems that my daughter-in-law is not as careless as she seems on the surface. She is still quite politically acumen.
After her making such a fuss, the Princess Palace formed an independent army and separated from the Beiting Army. On the surface, this seemed to mean that the Beiting Army was weakened by the split. If there was no political showmanship that Xu Wanyi had planned in advance,
He absolutely didn't believe it.
But why did she choose this time? Is it because Feng Yuxi and those officials from the imperial court were still in Beiting?
No, could it be that... Zhang Peng's pupils suddenly dilated, as if he remembered something terrible.
No way, did she really listen to what he said that day... Zhang Peng turned his head to look at Old Man Qin in disbelief, only to find that Old Man Qin was also looking at him.
"Grandpa Qin, the princess..." Zhang Peng asked tentatively and uncertainly.
"There is no need for you to say anything, Luan Mingjun. In the future, you still have to rely on the commander to take care of you," Mr. Qin smiled and gently cupped his hand towards Zhang Peng.
The corner of Zhang Peng's mouth twitched slightly. In the secret conversation that night, he only shared his superficial opinions about the special forces. He didn't expect that it would touch Xu Wanyi so much!
His mind was spinning rapidly, and he suddenly thought of the beauty of Xu Wanyi's move today.
If the Luanming Army was a special forces branch, then its number would definitely not be large. It would only last for a thousand people, and it would not exceed 3,000 in ten years.
This was in the eighth century. No one knew what special forces were, no one knew the tactics of special forces, and no one understood what precise strikes, decapitation operations, and extreme individual combat were... Limited to the times, in the eyes of today's Daxia officials
Come on, this severely under-organized Luan Ming Army is just an empty shell!
Not pretending to be an empty shell, but really being an empty shell.
No matter how hard the spies in the imperial court or the intelligence organizations in the Western Regions try to verify, they will eventually find out that "the Luanming Army is an empty shell, and its number is pitifully small." From this, they can infer the relationship between the Northern Protector and Princess Luanming.
There must have been a rift between father and daughter.
Zhang Peng continued to think. He was thinking that if he were the emperor of Daxia, after hearing the news, he would definitely agree to the request for food and salary from Beiting Luanming's army, because he would think that this food and salary would
Triggering greater conflicts between the Protectorate and the Princess!
Isn't this the Beiting that the Great Xia court most wanted to see? A Beiting that is not united and has internal struggles for power!
The more he thought about it, the more he felt that the rehearsal of this play was wonderful. He looked at Old Man Qin again.
This old Yin coin must have been his idea! Xu Wanyi must not have been able to think of so many twists and turns. This old guy is amazing.
If he had to use a suitable term to describe this plan, Zhang Peng felt that "true lie" could not be more accurate.
"Master Ma, Master Ma? It's time to welcome the army into the city. You have to be in front," Mr. Qin reminded kindly.
"Okay, Grandpa Qin, I will follow the rules," Zhang Peng replied with a smile.
Next came the welcoming ceremony that strictly followed the etiquette process. Zhang Peng's first experience was not boring, but very tiring. He was responsible for leading the horse and toasting. The whole process had to be accompanied by a smiling face and bowed waist.
If he hadn't been practicing martial arts these days, otherwise he might not be able to endure this complicated ceremony.
"Peng'er, why are you so depressed?" On the way into the city, Xu Xianzhi looked at Zhang Peng who was holding his horse and asked with a smile, "Is it because Wan'er has bullied you again recently? You can tell me everything."
Zhang Peng just wanted to nod and say "yes", but Xu Xianzhi asked and answered his own question: "But telling me is of no use. Anyway, I have nothing to do."
Zhang Peng: Father-in-law, if you don’t know how to comfort people, don’t comfort them.
"By the way, did Yuan Daxia teach you "Lingxi Wuxiang Jue"? I can't mistake the true energy blessed by Wan'er's last ten moves, which is Lingxi true energy," Xu Xianzhi asked with a smile, "Why?
, you two have consummated their marriage? When can a father hold his grandson in his arms? "
Zhang Peng:......
"Hahaha, why are you so shy? You and Wan'er live a harmonious life as a couple and have a harmonious relationship. This is what I want to see," Xu Xianzhi laughed, "You have been hiding your capabilities, biding your time, pretending to be stupid, and deceived your father for four years.
Years old, but as a father, I can understand, but you are not allowed to do this again in the future, live a good life, the vast territory of Beiting is enough for you to display your talents."
"What dad taught me is, Zhang Peng should remember," Zhang Peng could say more. He couldn't explain many words.
Looking back at the luxurious carriage, the eldest princess and the princess, mother and daughter, were chatting and laughing in the carriage, and laughter like silver bells could be heard from time to time.
It doesn't matter, Xu Wanyi will probably be under less pressure than herself when being questioned by the eldest princess at this moment. She is a smart person and should know how to speak.
Arriving at Beiting City, the army was divided into camps, and the pro-combatants followed the general back to the mansion, but this time it was different.
Xu Xianzhi obviously saw Zhang Peng leading his BMW in another direction.
"This is heading south of the city, why don't you go back to the Commander's Mansion?" Xu Xianzhi was a little confused.
"Dad, our Beiting Army has been guarding the border of Daxia for more than 20 years. We have worked hard and made great achievements in battle. However, few people know that our Beiting soldiers are all made of flesh and blood. Even if they are cut with a knife, they will be injured, and even if they are stabbed with a sword, they will be injured."
He will die. Over the years, tens of thousands of brothers have been buried deep in this land of the Western Regions. Dad, do you still remember them?" Zhang Peng did not answer Xu Xianzhi's words, but talked about a heavy topic.
"Everyone in my father's memory remembers that if it weren't for their bravery and fearlessness, we, Daxia, would have lost Beiting, and Turks and Tibet would have herded horses in Hexi. Why did you suddenly talk about this?" Xu Xianzhi's face quickly smiled.
It turned into lamentation.
"The child discussed it with the princess. Since ancient times, famous generals have been given posthumous titles after their death. They can go to the martial arts temple and the village ancestral hall to leave their names for generations. However, few people know about these Jingbian warriors who died on the border of Daxia.
, I think this is unfair," Zhang Peng said angrily, "Why are those fat heads and big ears eating wine and rice bags one by one, and enjoying themselves in the pass with peace of mind? If it weren't for these brothers who bury their bones in the frontier, they would already be Turks.
People are like sheep with two legs!"
"The world's social customs are so difficult to change. This is one of the reasons why my father and the court cannot urinate in the same pot." Xu Xianzhi agreed very much with Zhang Peng's words and said coldly, "Those bad guys with sores on their heads and pus on their soles, from now on.
They have never thought about pacifying the Western Region, because they are more afraid that Beiting will grow stronger and threaten their interests!"
"So, dad, I'm thinking, we can't control how the court views Beiting for the time being, but in Beiting, I must let everyone remember who brought them a comfortable life.
Who is using their lives to protect the safety of their property? I want to imprint Beiting’s core spirit of moving forward unflinchingly and not fearing sacrifice deeply into their hearts, so that women, children, old and young will all know why Beiting!”
