Xiao Wenkui stared blankly at his son, as if he suddenly realized that he didn't recognize this son of his. Thinking of this, Xiao Wenkui also gradually came to realize that his son was already a "famous northwest general" who had led an army to defeat powerful enemies. His son had really grown up a lot, a lot!
Yang Caiyun looked at her husband with burning eyes, as if she couldn't extricate herself from it.
After a while, Xiao Wenkui seemed to realize it and asked, "Si, how do you know so much about Nihon? How do you know it? "
"There are many merchants coming and going from Ningxia. I have always been interested in the Japanese pirates, so I inquired more about it. Then I noticed this country and felt that it should not be underestimated." Xiao Ruxun explained briefly and changed the topic, "In my opinion, the Liaodong Army will lose face in this battle, but it's also good. Daming will take this opponent seriously, and then I will be in a better situation."
"Situation?" Xiao Wenkui seemed to realize something, "Si, you mean, will you … join the imperial court?"
Xiao Ruxun nodded. "I've just made a name for myself in the northwest. Once the Liaodong Army is defeated, everyone in the imperial court will definitely want me to go to war. Therefore, I'll definitely go to Korea and fight with these Wokou pirates."
Xiao Wenkui thought for a moment and frowned, "If the Liaodong Army is defeated, what can I do to fight with the Japanese pirates? The Liaodong Army is the most elite army of Daming, and most of them are cavalrymen. They are very powerful! "
"If we don't use them in the right place, even the most powerful army will be defeated!" Xiao Ruxun said flatly, "The terrain of Korea is rugged. Eighty percent of the territory is mountainous, and the rest of the plains are mostly farmland and ravines. Only a few areas can be used by cavalrymen.
So, the more cavalrymen there are, the more disadvantageous they will be. In this season, there are many heavy rains in midsummer. Once it rains heavily, the land will be muddy, and the horses' hooves will be easily damaged. They can't charge quickly, so the cavalrymen can't gallop at all. Once the cavalrymen lose their momentum, they can only become living targets for the infantry! "
Xiao Wenkui was not an ignorant person. When he thought of this, he immediately gasped, "This time, the Liaodong Army dispatched cavalry. If it rains heavily and the cavalry turns into infantry, won't it be terrible?"
"That's why I'm sure that if the arrogant soldiers and valiant generals of the Liaodong Army underestimate the enemy and advance rashly, they will definitely lose this battle." Xiao Ruxun drank a cup of wine and then said in a low voice, "If the Liaodong Army is defeated in the first battle, it will inevitably have an impact on the imperial court, and Li Chengliang's backer will also be hit. At that time, I will take the initiative to ask His Majesty for permission to fight."
Xiao Wenkui worriedly held onto Xiao Ruxun's hand and anxiously said, "Si 'er, this isn't a small matter. You have just been conferred the title of nobility. If things go badly for you, I'm afraid it won't be good. You can participate in the war, but you can't be the commander!"
"Father, don't worry. I know what I'm doing." Xiao Ruxun also held Xiao Wenkui's hand and said, "As for the ideas of those dukes and marquises, as long as the Liaodong Army is defeated, their ideas will almost be gone. They have been kept in captivity for so many years, and the blood of their ancestors has long been worn out. They just want to take advantage of the advantages.
They have lived a luxurious life since childhood, and they don't know the suffering of the common people. They have never trained their troops at the frontier. How can they be of great use? If they're willing to give up their people, I'll keep them. When they go back on their word, I'll pretend to be unhappy and release them in the end. I'll do them a huge favor and kill two birds with one stone. Of course, if there are some who have the guts, I'll also help them. "
Hearing this, Xiao Wenkui looked up and down at Xiao Ruxun with joy and praised, "My son has grown up!"
This expression, these words, it was as if he was saying that the pig he raised finally knew how to get cabbages. He was very gratified, which made Xiao Ruxun a little embarrassed — I'm tricking people, can't you tell? "How can you say that I'm good?" Sure enough, in the officialdom, it was a competition of the upper limit of intelligence and the lower limit of moral integrity.
After three rounds of wine, the old man was a little happy. He kept talking about how he wanted to hold a grandson and stuff like that. He wanted Xiao Ruxun to quickly give birth to a grandson for him. The four brothers had not given birth to a child yet. As a father, how could he endure this? It was not until Yang Caiyun covered her face and left that Xiao Ruxun sent his drunk father back to his room to sleep and handed him over to his concubine before leaving.
Xiao Wenkui's mother died when the brothers were still young. It was probably because she had too many children and was too weak, so she died soon after giving birth to Xiao Ruxun. Xiao Wenkui had always felt that he owed his wife, so he had never remarried. After raising the children and sending them away, he also set off to the capital to fight for the children's future. From this point of view, Xiao Wenkui was a father who loved his children very much.
Back in her room, Yang Caiyun gently undressed Xiao Ruxun and then talked about the things in North Korea. This beautiful woman did not need to hide anything.
"Are you really going to North Korea?"
"Yes, definitely."
"Can I not go? I don't want you to go. "
Yang Caiyun hugged Xiao Ruxun from behind. "It's enough for our family to have the title of Count of Pinglu."
"Forgive me, Caiyun. I have to go for a reason." Xiao Ruxun raised his hand and showed her the string of Buddhist beads. "This is a reward from the Emperor. In the middle of the night when we first arrived in the capital, I was secretly taken to the palace to see the Emperor. You were asleep and did not know."
Yang Caiyun's eyes widened in shock and she was speechless.
"The Emperor asked me a lot of things and told me a lot of things. Once the Liaodong army was defeated, it was inevitable for me to go to North Korea." Xiao Ruxun looked at the string of beads. "And I vaguely feel that the meaning of this string of beads is not that simple. The timing is too coincidental. I just defeated Bo Bai, and North Korea was invaded. It is normal for me to enter the Emperor's eyes.
The Emperor probably did not give me this string of beads with simple intentions. This may be just the beginning. In the future, I may go to countless places, fight countless battles, and experience many things. Caiyun, this world is not a place where we can do whatever we want. We have to do a lot of things that we do not want to do. "
Yang Caiyun hugged Xiao Ruxun tightly again and sobbed softly.
"I am afraid."
Just these two words made Xiao Ruxun's heart tremble. He turned around and hugged Yang Caiyun in his arms, lowering his head to smell the fragrance on her body.
"Let's have a child …"
Xiao Ruxun whispered in her ear and saw that her ears were red. Xiao Ruxun smiled happily, took a deep breath, and carried Yang Caiyun horizontally. Looking at the woman who still buried her head in his arms and did not dare to raise her head, Xiao Ruxun's heart was full of love and the impulse to possess, the impulse to disregard everything.
