Monument Yangmen

Chapter 582 Gamblers
The blueprint drawn by Yang Qi was magnificent, but he failed to convince Yang Hong. Even Mu Yu felt that his statement was unreliable.

They stubbornly believe that it is best to move forward step by step according to the rules of their ancestors.

Therefore, no matter how many generations have passed, they all like to live within the rules of their ancestors.

At least, in their opinion, the ancestors gave the correct answers to the things that their ancestors experienced, and they only need to follow the correct answers, and they will not make mistakes.

Things are not out of their control.

It seems that for them, being out of control is a terrible thing.

It is very difficult for Yang Qi to change the thinking of two mature adults within a short period of time.

A few people expected the end, and they felt a little bit unhappy.

Fortunately, Peng Pai came back in a hurry, not only bringing the craftsmen, but also Kou Zhun.

With their appearance, Yang Hong and Mu Yu could focus more on the sand table model instead of continuing to discuss military service with Yang Qi.

Yang Hong, Mu Yu, and Du Jin'e went to study the sand table.

Yang Qi and Kou Zhun were left in the conference room.

Kou Zhun was tied up by Wuhuada, when he saw Yang Qi, he snorted coldly and turned his head away.

Yang Qi asked a little amusedly: "How could this happen?"

Peng Pai said embarrassingly: "Young Master, you want to see him, but no matter how much my subordinate invites you, he won't come. The only thing my subordinate has to do is tie him up."

Kou Zhun looked like a resentful woman, wailing, "Yang Yansi, you know how to bully me."

"Cough cough cough..."

Yang Qi coughed dryly, waved his hands and said, "Let him go."

Peng Pai untied the rope from Kou Zhun's body.

Kou Zhun broke free from the shackles and rushed towards Yang Qi.

With quick eyes and hands, Peng Pai stood in front of Kou Zhun.

Kou Zhun was blocked by Peng Pai three feet away from Yang Qi, and roared at Yang Qi, "Yang, you are too deceitful, I will fight with you."

Yang Qi was stunned and said: "You can beat me?"

Kou Zhun said resentfully: "If you can't fight, you have to fight. A soldier can be killed but not humiliated."

Under Kou Zhun's astonished eyes, Yang Qi put one hand on Kou Zhun's head, as if comforting a child, and said, "Hey, don't make trouble."

Be good, stop making trouble?
obedient……

"Yang Yansi, your uncle."

Kou Zhun was completely angry, roaring that he wanted to fight Yang Qi desperately.

He felt that he had been insulted, he was already in his 20s, how could he not be angry if he was treated like a child by someone younger than himself.

Yang Qi sat down at the table calmly, and said, "Kou Zhun, I know you are afraid. You are afraid that one day my identity will be exposed and you will suffer disaster together with me. You are also afraid that I will be written in the history books with me, and will be infamous forever.

However, there are some things that have to be done even if they are notorious for a long time.I don't ask much, I just hope that after a hundred years, I will have a clear conscience. "

Kou Zhun squinted, glared at Yang Qi, and growled: "What you are doing now is to crack the soil and seal the border. Could it be that in your heart, cracking the soil and sealing the border means that you have a clear conscience?"

Yang Qi shook his head and said with a sneer, "Crack the soil and seal the border? If the Song Dynasty can't take back these lands, then how can I be regarded as cracking the soil and sealing the border?"

Kou Zhun said angrily, "You're talking nonsense."

Yang Qi stared at him and said with a smile: "Then how about we gamble?"

Kou Zhun raised his eyebrows and said coldly, "Why should I bet with you?"

Yang Qi said seriously: "Because you have no other choice."

Kou Zhun gritted his teeth, a little unwilling, "Okay, I can bet with you, what do you want to bet?"

Yang Qi stood up and pointed directly at the Sixteen States of Yanyun, "If my prediction is correct, within four years, there will be a battle between Song and Liao. We will bet on the victory between Song and Liao."

Kou Zhun said with arrogance, "I bet Song Dynasty will win, and he will succeed in recovering Yanyun sixteen prefectures."

Yang Qi looked at Kou Zhun with pity.

The outcome of the war between Song and Liao is doomed, unless Zhao Guangyi dies suddenly, or Zhao Guangyi is willing to delegate power to his soldiers.

However, neither of these seems possible.

"I lost, and I will be at your disposal in the future."

This is Kou Zhun's promise.

Yang Qi put his hands behind his back and said with a smile: "If I lose, then I will give you the land of three prefectures in the northwest as a favor. You can also win a good future if you give it to Zhao Guangyi."

"It's a word."

The two finalized the bet, and Yang Qi let Kou Zhun go.

Yang Qi believed that the existence of this bet would more or less reassure Kou Zhun.

Kou Zhun walked out of the Fuxing Martial Arts Academy proudly.

After he was out of everyone's sight, his arrogance disappeared and was replaced by a look of worry.

In Kou Zhun's impression, Yang Qi never seemed to fail.

And Yang Qi was willing to bet such a big bet that Song would lose in the battle between Song and Liao, which made Kou Zhun very worried.

Four years later in the war, Yang Qi was able to assert that Song would lose, which meant that Yang Qi had seen from Song that he must lose.

Kou Zhun felt that he needed to study it carefully.

……

For the next six days, Yang Qi stayed in the Fuxing Martial Academy, waiting for the people he invited to gather.

On the fifth day, Zhe Yuxun was invited to the Fuxing Martial Arts Academy, accompanied by Zhe Weichang and a hundred basic generals under the command of the Zhejia Army.

When Zhe Yuxun came to Fuxing Wuyuan this time, besides attending the meeting, he also sent people selected by the Zhe family to Fuxing Wuyuan for training.

Zhe Yuxun not only trained the basic generals of the Zhejia Army, but even hoped that his son Zhe Weichang could worship under Yang Hong's family and learn Yang Hong's art of war.

Zhe Yuxun knew the details of Yang Hong, and also knew the strength of Yang Hong's art of war, so he hoped that his son could learn from each other's strengths, combine the strengths of the two art of war, and go far enough in the art of war.

It can be seen from this that Zhe Yuxun is by no means a pedantic person.

As early as the Five Dynasties, Zhe Yuxun was able to put aside his sectarianism and let Zheda learn art from Lao Yang, and now Zhe Weichang learns art from Yang Hong.

It is not without reason that the Zhe family has been able to run across the Northwest for so many years.

With Yang Qi as the leader, it is not difficult for Zhe Wei to worship under Yang Hong's family.

The hundreds of people from the Zhejia army who came to train were also taken over by Mu Yu after they entered the martial arts academy.

Zhe Yuxun was left, and Yang Qi led him to visit the martial arts academy.

Zhe Yuxun showed great interest when visiting the half-built sand table.

After hearing Yang Qi explain the benefits of the sand table, he made a decision on the spot and asked Yang Qi to help him build a sand table.

Yang Qi readily agreed.

The two are now a very solid strategic alliance, except for some unnecessary core secrets, there is nothing that cannot be shared together.

night time.

The uncle and nephew pushed back the others, and there were only the two of them in the huge conference room.

Zhe Yuxun half-lyed on the chair, with his hands folded on his stomach.

Yang Qi is busy making tea for Zhe Yuxun.

Although Zhe Yuxun is not a scholar, he likes the tea soup that scholars like to drink, and it is the kind with milk.

Yang Qi cooked a cup of tea and handed it to Zhe Yuxun. Zhe Yuxun sat up straight, picked up the teacup, took a sip of the tea soup Yang Qi made, then frowned in distaste, and put the teacup back on the table. On the table, no more touches.

Yang Qi cooked a cup of tea for himself, held it in his hand and sipped it, although his mouth was hot, but he was reluctant to put it down.

Yang Qi likes the fragrance of green tea very much.

Zhe Yuxun tapped the table with his fingers, and suddenly asked: "Did you send the Datong Army out to help the wild beggar Ganbo deal with Li Jiqian?"

Yang Qi nodded, raised his nose, "Yes."

Zhe Yuxun frowned, "What is your plan?"

Yang Qi put down the teacup in his hand, and said with a smile: "I saw that the two groups of them couldn't fight for a while, so I added fuel to the fire."

Zhe Yuxun frowned even deeper, "Aren't you afraid of raising tigers?"

Yang Qi smiled and said: "Li Jiqian is the tiger who is not familiar with it, and the wild beggar is at best a hunting dog."

Zhe Yuxun said seriously: "It doesn't matter who is a tiger or a hound. This is an opportunity for us, and I will not let this opportunity pass."

Yang Qi nodded and said with a smile: "As expected... I know what you mean, I will never allow my own people to beat my own people. Once your Zhejia army enters the party, the soldiers and horses under my command will Withdraw from the party immediately. But I hope you can invade the party later."

Zhe Yuxun was stunned, and tentatively said: "As far as I know, you are about to get Dongshengzhou, do you want more?"

Yang Qi smiled and said: "Who would think that he has less land? It's just that the party item is the party item of the party member after all. We take advantage of their mutual losses and reap the benefits. At the beginning, we will indeed have an advantage, but in the long run Look, it's not worth it."

Zhe Yuxun was stunned, raised his eyebrows and said, "What do you mean?"

Yang Qi patiently explained: "With the power in our hands, it is not enough to annex the entire Dangxiang now. Even if we occupy all the territory of the Dangxiang, it is impossible to truly domesticate the Dangxiang people. After all, we came from two or three states. The land expanded to more than a dozen states at once, and the expansion was too fast. The forces under our hands could not grasp these places quickly.

Therefore, occupying all the party items will not only make us stronger, but will also make us weaker.

Therefore, for us, only cannibalization is the best policy. "

Zhe Yuxun said in a deep voice, "What kind of cannibalization method?"

Yang Qi stretched out his hand, spread his palms, and said, "Let's nibble at the five prefectures of the party first. I know that your Zhejia is determined to win Suizhou and Yinzhou. So the best choice for your Zhejia is to occupy Suizhou and Yinzhou. The territory of your family can be connected into a line.

My side occupies Dongsheng Prefecture and Yunnei Prefecture.

Then, our two families will divide Xiazhou together. "

Zhe Yuxun understood Yang Qi's meaning clearly from Yang Qi's words in an instant, "So, you are going to support the wild beggar tribe to defeat the Li clan. Then after we occupy the five states, let the wild beggar tribe help Are we going to get used to other places for the time being?"

Yang Qi nodded.

"No."

Zhe Yuxun resolutely refused. He said: "Dangxiang was attached to it back then, and the Dangxiang at that time was just a larger tribe. But after a short period of development, the Dangxiang grew rapidly.

Don't underestimate these nomads, their growth rate is much faster than you imagined.

It can even be said that they are growing every moment.

Once the wild beggar tribe is allowed to grow, it will be difficult for us to deal with them. "

Yang Qi was stunned, "So... Uncle, what do you mean, how much can you take advantage of this opportunity?"

Zhe Yuxun nodded firmly.

Yang Qi said helplessly: "Uncle, have you ever thought that occupying too many places will disperse our current power when we have no ability to govern.

Just like your family's current 12 soldiers and horses.It is more than enough to control the land of two states, and it is barely enough to control the land of five states.

However, if you exceed the five states, you will definitely be struggling.

Moreover, for the people of Dangxiang, we belong to the aggressors.

Most of them cannot be domesticated by us.

Following the example of the sages, we can only drive them farther north.

However, without the population, what is the use of the territory we occupy? "

Zhe Yuxun said solemnly: "I have already considered this matter clearly, and I am going to divide some of the people from the two prefectures under my rule."

"Sigh~"

Yang Qi gasped, his pupils shrunk, and he said in shock: "Uncle, do you know the disadvantages of doing this? In the two prefectures under the Zhe family, the people now live and work in peace and contentment. If they relocate rashly, they will not Will conflict?
Moreover, from the densely populated towns to the barren prairie, everything starts from the heart.

Can the people accept it?
The most important thing is that what you do will destroy the economy of the two prefectures under Zhejia's rule.

Are you betting? "

Zhe Yuxun clenched his fists tightly, gritted his teeth and said, "You're right, I'm just gambling. If I win the bet, the Zhe family will skyrocket from then on. If I lose the bet..."

Zhe Yuxun looked at Yang Qi, and suddenly smiled and said: "If I really lost, wouldn't you still help me out? You wouldn't watch our Zhe family go down, would you?"

Yang Qi smiled wryly and said, "I mean, why is my uncle, who always seeks stability, so radical this time? So he was waiting for me to give Zhejia a complete answer..."

Yang Qi pondered for a moment, and said with emotion: "Forget it, I promise you. But I can only help you guarantee that I will help you Zhejia guard the land of Fuzhou and Linzhou. I can't do anything for the rest of the place."

Zhe Yuxun smiled happily: "Hahahaha... With your words, I feel much more at ease."

Yang Qi felt that even with his own help, Zhejia was still a bit risky, so he decided to remind him one more time.

"Uncle, have you considered colonization?"

Zhe Yuxun was stunned, and asked, "How do you say it?"

Yang Qi roughly explained some colonial knowledge to Zhe Yuxun.

Zhe Yuxun thought it was absurd at the beginning, but after careful consideration of Yang Qi's statement, he felt that it was necessary to try it.

Although Zhe Yuxun didn't insist on using the colony method, he had already recorded this method in his heart.
