[Red Mansion] Let's listen to a general's order

Looking at the expressionless handsome face in front of him, Jia Daishan asked anxiously, "Who is fighting? Northwest? Southeast? Barbarians? When will the army be raised? Who is the leading general?" Compared with the information revealed in Jia Lian's words, a The life and death of the little servant is naturally insignificant.

Jia Daishan's feelings for Jia Lian are very complicated. There is a natural love as a parent, the hope that his son will become a dragon, and the pride of his son's success. Emperor Wen loved the fawning he brought.

"Father, are you sure you want me to talk here?" Jia Lian looked around at the figures not far away who dared not come over and pointed.

"Follow me to the study." Jia Daishan also knew that such important military affairs should not be discussed in the court at will, so he walked back to the study with his hands behind his back. He came out to see what happened because Zhan Cai hadn't returned for a long time. After three years of Ding You, even he will go to the Hall of Supreme Harmony every year to participate in the New Year's Day and the Winter Solstice, where civil and military officials, royal relatives and relatives and honorable relatives gather. Some military generals and nobles who had always been friends with each other helped to remind Emperor Zhou Wen that they had already fulfilled their filial piety and could take on important positions.It's just that Emperor Wen of Zhou didn't seem to know, or rather, he seemed to have forgotten Duke Rong Jia Daishan.But he, Jia Daishan, who had won the Sacred Heart, wandered around in front of Emperor Zhou Wen every now and then, so it was impossible to forget him.

At the beginning, Jia Daishan observed the situation in the court, and found that the princes gradually grew up and entered the court one after another, and the prince's kinsmen were also ready to move.He thinks it is a very good strategy to take advantage of the situation and stay at home with Ding You, to put aside the military power of the Fengtai camp in his hand, so as not to be implicated in the emperor's seizure of the heir.

It’s just that in the past eight years, if Emperor Wen of Zhou hadn’t given some rewards from time to time to show that he still attached great importance to Rongguo Mansion (Jia Daishan and Shi’s think), Jia Daishan, who had been idle for a long time, would really be depressed and call himself ill because of his lack of recognition for his talents. .For him who was about to grow old--Emperor Zhou Wen was about to use his troops, which was undoubtedly a great opportunity.

"Then...the elder brother went back to the courtyard and waited for you to come. Hu'er and Lian'er have been arguing for a long time for the little uncle to play with them." Jia She glanced at Jia Daishan's back and said cautiously.

He had been beaten up by his father a lot, and Jia Daishan had always had a bad attitude towards him, and he was annoyed whenever he saw him, so he really didn't dare to stay in front of Jia Daishan for too long.

Thinking of the two clever and cute little nephews, Jia Lian's eyes softened, but his subordinates mercilessly held the cute little nephews' father tightly.

"Where do you want to go?" He did so many things just now, didn't he just want to improve the status of his little nephew's father's family! ?Enter the study to discuss matters with the head of the Rongguo Mansion, but even the Shi family and the most "excellent" son Jia Zheng have never been qualified for this.Jia Amnesty was able to step into the "forbidden area" of the study, but he was the only one, so the benefits can be imagined.

As for Jia Lian himself, he really doesn't care about this little study in the Rongguo Mansion. Emperor Zhou Wen's imperial study, the Hall of Mental Cultivation, is the playground where he fell and grew up.

Before Jia She could think of refusing, Jia Lian said: "Jia Zheng has never entered the study." It may be because Jia She has been chanting in his ear a lot since he was a child, or it may be because of Shi's relationship. I have always disliked this "Second Brother" and just called him by his name.

Immediately, Jia She did not procrastinate at all, straightened his back, and strode towards the study with great ambitious strides, as if a raging fire was burning behind him.

Let him do what the nasty dick never did! !This is a matter that pleases him (Jia Amnesty) so much! ! !

Suddenly crossing the threshold of the study in a menacing manner, Jia She was so proud that he wished that the Manrong Guofu, who was blaring with drums and drums, would tell everyone the "fact" that he was better than Jia Zheng!

Jia Daishan didn't know what kind of madness this careless eldest son was going into. He frowned and opened his mouth to curse: "Unworthy thing! Who allowed you to step into the study? Get out!"

Jia Amnesty shrank his neck, subconsciously took a step back, and left the study.

At this time, Jia She's waist was firmly supported from behind by his calloused hand, which had been clearly defined.

"I asked my brother to come in." Jia Lian walked up from behind without haste.

"Hu Hanxie, the Right Wise King of the Xiongnu in the Northwest, has become more and more insane in the past few years. The emperor has already decided to take the imperial conquest. At that time, I should be assigned to Uncle Niu." While Jia Lian was answering about the situation, Jia She was very interested. He found a position by himself and pretended to be the background obediently.

Seeing that Jia Lian clearly wanted to keep Jia She, Jia Daishan didn't say much, but just gave Jia She a look.

Jia Amnesty said he was innocent.

"Hu Hanxie, the beloved son of the Xiongnu Dashan Yu Yizhixie and the Zhuan Quyan family. He is cunning in nature and has always been ambitious. He has been wooing and incorporating other tribes of the Huns. A large amount of gold and silver to equip the army. It has always been proposed that the Xiongnu, Xianbei, Turkic, and Rouran will unite and want to attack the Great Zhou. They are ambitious. Moreover, after he became the Youxian Queen, he often sent people to plunder the border cities of the Great Zhou. , gold, silver, wealth, and population. He is proficient in the art of war, and with thousands of eagle shooters and tens of thousands of string control men under his command, the frontier army could not stop him, so he had to move the population and money of the border towns as far as possible inward.” One said. When it came time to get down to business, Jia Daishan's expression was sour, he seemed to be talking to himself, and seemed to be explaining to Jia Lian and Jia She.

The Yan family of Zhuan Qu was also the concubine of Shan Yu, followed by the Da Yan family.

"Historical Records of General Li Biography": "The Huns entered Shangjun, and the emperor sent the nobles from Guangle to attack the Huns. The nobles rode dozens of verticals. When they saw three Huns, they fought. The three shot back and injured the nobles. Kill the riders and kill them. The nobles went to Guang, and Guang said: "He must shoot the eagles." The Xiongnu invaded Shangjun on a large scale, and the emperor sent an eunuch to study military affairs with Li Guang to fight against the Xiongnu.The eunuch led dozens of cavalry and galloped on horseback. When they met three Huns, they fought with them. The three Huns turned around and shot arrows, wounding the eunuch and almost killing his cavalry.The eunuch fled back to Li Guang, and Li Guang said, "This must be the eagle shooter of the Huns."

The eagle is a kind of raptor on the grassland, with sharp eyesight, ferocious nature, fast and long-lasting flight.To hit the eagle, you need extraordinary archery skills.Although the Xiongnu were nomads who grew up on horseback and claimed to be able to spend their entire lives on horseback, they were proficient in riding and archery, but it was not so easy to shoot an eagle.Anyone who can shoot the eagle is known as the "Condor Shooter", and he is the most outstanding marksman of the Xiongnu.

Even with the Xiongnu being good at archery, it is difficult to find one eagle shooter in a thousand people. Every eagle shooter has a superb archery skill, which is hard to come by.

And Hu Hanxie actually had thousands of eagle shooters under his command, which shows his power and prestige among the Huns.

In addition, Hu Hanxie was the beloved son of the Great Shanyu Yizhixie. Once Emperor Wen of Zhou sent troops, the Great Shanyu Yizhixie would naturally not sit back and ignore Ai'er's danger, and would naturally recruit all the Huns to fight.With Hu Hanxie's ambition, maybe he will provoke the Xianbei, Turkic, and Rouran clans to give Da Zhou a head-on blow.

"Besides, if my Great Zhou sends troops, I'm afraid it will do what he wants." Except for Quejue and Huhanxie who hit it off, the Xianbei and Rouran clans have been hesitant because of the huge losses after the battle with Li Chengen.If the Great Zhou sent troops, it might make them think about the reason why the lips are dead and the teeth are cold, and it will lead to the alliance of the four clans.

"My Great Zhou has millions of troops, elite soldiers and strong generals, sufficient food and grass, so why not be afraid of wolves, tigers and leopards on the grassland." Jia Lian said confidently. He was not too proud and blindly despised foreigners, but his master once taught him: "For The first condition for a general is "courage". Without courage, no matter how much you know, it is useless. Without courage, thinking about the past and the future, and indecision are taboos in the army. Moreover, if the enemy's soldiers are ten times yours, can't you Do you still want to abandon your armor and surrender?" Even if the four tribes of the Huns joined forces, Master Li was able to lead the Great Zhou to victory [-] years ago, and his disciples would naturally defeat them.

Although Jia Daishan, who has experienced many battles, knows that fighting is not counting, but he is still very happy to see that Jia Lian's newborn calf is not afraid of tigers.Now it seems that the eldest is a useless libertine, while the second is going to be a civil servant, and only the third can inherit his mantle.

"Brother, I heard that Hu'er has learned more than half of the "Children's Learning Qionglin" taught by her sister-in-law, is it true?" Next, Jia Lian changed the subject and asked about Jia Hu's studies.

Jia She was taken aback for a moment, and immediately understood: "The day before yesterday, Hu'er had already memorized all of "Children's Learning Qionglin", and under the test of your sister-in-law, she made no mistakes. It's much better than some young students!" Jia She is most proud of three things in his life - when he was young, he acted first, pulling his good brother over him to fight against the second child, his wife, Xiao Zhang, is gentle, virtuous and good-looking, not like the clumsy mouth of the second child He has a mediocre tongue, a well-behaved son, and his talent in reading is higher than that of Jia Zheng and his son combined!

Jia Daishan could hear him ridiculing Jia Zheng and Jia Zhu and his son secretly. Originally, he was still surprised by Jia Hu's fast progress in study, no one told him, but soon, the anger in his chest overshadowed the surprise.This bastard who has no brotherhood!To hate even a nephew is really not a son of man!

"That's not good!" At this time, Jia Lian slapped Jia She's thigh vigorously, causing Jia She to cry out in pain: "Ah!"

"I promised Xiaohu that if Xiaohu finished memorizing "Young Xue Qiong Lin", I would give him a pony. I thought it would take him a month or two to memorize "Young Xue Qiong Lin", How could I have memorized it so quickly, I haven't asked the emperor for a pony yet!" Jia Lian stared into Jia She's eyes and said with gritted teeth.This brother really doesn't know how to speak, it's all because the old grandmother spoiled him too much, or should it be said that Jia She was born proficient in how to keep anger from dying?

Hearing these words, the anger in Jia Daishan's heart suddenly subsided again, and he felt that he was really favored by the emperor, even the gift promised to his little nephew could beg the emperor's hand, turning a blind eye to the precious royal horse in the palace, as if It's just like a cheap gadget.

Jia She noticed that the sudden irritability on Jia Daishan's body subsided suddenly, and only then did he realize that what he said just now was too blatant and angered his father, but...he looked at Jia Lian sadly, Why is it always he who gets hurt! ?

Jia Lian rolled her handsome eyes at him.Who told you the cutest!

"Ah──" Jia Amnesty screamed again, tearing Jia Lian's ear fiercely, causing him to tremble involuntarily, goose bumps all over his body, and his heart stopped beating.

It was Jia Daishan who saw the "intimate" behavior between the two brothers. Although he regretted why his two sons were at odds with his second son Jia Zheng, he was still relieved and considerate. Zhu Zhu slapped Jia Amnesty's thigh fiercely with his big hand.

Although Jia Daishan has been exercising less in recent years than before, as usual, he has practiced three times in winter and three times in summer, and he has never neglected a day. His martial arts are still seven or eight of what he used to be, and the strength of his hands is not as strong as that of Niu Jin. , but it should not be underestimated, especially for Jia She, a pampered and spoiled young man.

Jia Lian watched a good show with a smile on his side, and seeing Jia She's pitiful little eyes begging for help, he said, "Father, if not, go and listen to Hu'er's endorsement! If Hu'er can get grandfather's praise , will definitely study harder and improve.”

"...That's good, so that this ignorant bastard will spoil my Jia Daishan's grandson." After pondering for a while, Jia Daishan readily agreed, not forgetting to trample on his disliked eldest son.

Jia Amnesty was wronged, is this also his fault?Don't forget that Hu'er is his own son, and he has inherited his blood. Maybe Hu'er's talent and intelligence are learned from him!Jia Amnesty thought complacently, completely forgetting that Xiao Zhang's family has been scholarly for generations, and his own father is Zhang Xu, who has gone through the examination of the examination room and was an official to the Ministry of Rites.

Jia Lian chuckled and glanced at the woman sweeping the floor who was trotting furtively not far away, not taking her to heart.
