The older you get, the more you feel like a child.

When Yang Qi was still arguing with Yu Qing on the issue of the distribution of interests after the war, the three old children who heard the news blocked him at the door of the imperial study.

"Your Majesty, I heard that the Zhe family suffered a defeat in that Holy Roman Empire?"

"Miserable?"

Wang Gui opened his mouth without front teeth and asked gloatingly.

Yang Hong stroked the white beard on his chin and mended the knife on the side.

Fortunately, Yang Qi arranged for Zhe Yuqing to live in the post house first, if he heard the words of the two old children gloating, he would probably vomit blood in anger.

The hunched old Yang didn't gloat, he just shouted at Chen Lin to help him beat his back and rub his shoulders.

Yang Qi smiled and said, "Uncle Wang, Uncle Hong, where did you hear that the Zhe family suffered a defeat in the Holy Roman Empire?" ”

"Do you need to ask about this? It has been spread all over Yanjing City, saying that the Zhe family was deflated in that Roman Empire, and they came to our Yan Kingdom to ask for help. ”

Yang Hong pouted and spoke, with a look of disdain.

The disdain on his face was aimed at the Zhi family, he felt that since the Zhi family had gone abroad, it was too embarrassing to not play the prestige of the Han family.

Yang Qi nodded and said, "The Zhe family did suffer a defeat in the Holy Roman Empire, and they did come to our Yan Kingdom to ask for help. ”

Wang Gui asked expectantly, "Then shall we help?" ”

After Wang Gui asked this sentence, Yang Hong and Lao Yang's eyes fell on Yang Qi together.

Yang Qi was slightly stunned, he didn't know why, he smiled calmly: "If you help, you must help, but the related interest entanglements need to be clarified first." We, Yanguo, do not fight uncertain battles, let alone do deals that only lose money and do not make money. ”

Wang Gui nodded heavily, and echoed: "That's the reason, let our Yan Kingdom send troops, and the benefits will definitely not be less......"

Wang Gui said half of his words, and then changed his words, "The art of war is cloudy, the soldiers and horses have not moved, and the grain and grass go first." Since it has been decided to send troops, you must prepare first. You talk to Zhe Yuqing first, and Uncle Wang will help you prepare the grain, grass, soldiers and horses first. ”

Yang Hong was not happy when he heard it, "Let you help the army prepare food and grass, the soldiers are afraid that they will drink the wind and fart after they go out." I need to be in charge of this matter to be safe. ”

Wang Gui was anxious, "Why can't I do it, you can do it." ”

Yang Hong glanced at him with disdain, and said proudly: "You have been a pioneer deputy general all your life, what do you know besides charging into battle?" I don't understand anything. I'm different, I've served as a commander in chief for several times, and I've commanded the whole army. ”

Lao Yang pushed away Chen Lin, who was helping him pinch his shoulders, and said to Wang Gui and Yang Hong: "I don't care what the two of you do, anyway, the position of the commander of the Chinese army belongs to the old man, and none of you are qualified to grab it." ”

Wang Gui was always weak in front of Lao Yang, so after hearing Lao Yang's words, he hurriedly said: "No one is competing with you for the position of commander of the Chinese army...... Then the position of commander-in-chief of the left army will be mine. ”

Yang Hong was stunned when he heard this, and snorted: "The position of the commander of the right army belongs to me." ”

Yang Qi watched with tears and laughter as the three old children instantly divided the position of the commander-in-chief of the three armies, and he didn't know what to say for a while.

He finally understood, and dared to love that these three people had come to ask for war.

"The three of you are going to lead the army?"

Lao Yang and the three nodded heavily.

Yang Qi glanced at them, looked at their strong bodies that had lived up to their previous strength, and shook his head, "Aren't you three good at teaching in the Yanjing Martial Academy?" What are you doing on the battlefield.

The important task of the expedition to the Holy Roman Empire is to be given to those juniors, and you will not have to worry about the three of you. ”

"That's not going to work."

Wang Gui shook his head and said, "I have fought all my life, and what I ask for is the horse leather shroud." I've been idle for several years, and if I don't go to the battlefield again, I'm afraid I won't have a chance in my life. ”

Yang Hong nodded approvingly on the side and said: "Me too, as long as you allow me to go on the expedition, I guarantee that I will take the entire territory of the Holy Roman Empire within three years." ”

Wang Gui hurriedly said, "I only need two years. ”

Lao Yang said proudly: "The old man only needs one year is enough." ”

“……”

Yang Qi really didn't know what to say.

Looking at the posture of the three of them, it seems that the Holy Roman Empire is a cabbage in their eyes, they only need to take a sickle and go around the field, and the Holy Roman Empire is gone.

When Yang Hong saw Yang Qi's crying and laughing face, he knew that Yang Qi didn't believe them.

He immediately glanced at Wang Gui and Lao Yang.

Wang Gui and Lao Yang instantly understood.

Lao Yang said stiffly: "The three of them attack together, and it only takes half a year to take down the Holy Roman Empire." ”

Yang Qi smiled bitterly: "You three, don't mess with me here......"

"Who's messing with you. We're all serious. Quickly gave the order, and the three old men were still in a hurry to order troops. ”

Lao Yang shouted with a glare.

Yang Qi shook his head and said, "With the three of you, I'm afraid that you won't be able to hold it before you reach the Holy Roman Empire." Besides, the Holy Roman Empire is nowhere near as weak as the three of you think.

The territory of the Holy Roman Empire is larger than that of my Yan Kingdom.

The combat effectiveness of its soldiers and horses, although it is not comparable to our Yan country, can be compared with the Jin and Shu countries, which is more than enough.

This is also the reason why the Jin Kingdom lost three battles and three times, and did not hesitate to ask for help from my Yan Kingdom.

Therefore, the conquest of the Holy Roman Empire is not a one-day effort, and it may take three or five years to bear fruit. ”

Lao Yang was stunned for a moment, and said lightly: "The old man can live for seven or eight years." ”

"I can live another ten years......"

"I'm younger than all of you, and I'll live seventeen or eighteen years......"

“……”

Seeing that the three old children were fighting again, Yang Qi looked helpless.

From the Yan Kingdom to the Holy Roman Empire, it is thousands of miles away.

The soldiers and horses of the Yan Kingdom left Yanjing City, and if they walked, they had to walk for nearly a year and a half.

On this road alone, it takes three years to go back and forth.

After another three or five years of fierce fighting, with the bodies of Lao Yang and the three of them, they will not be able to hold it up at all.

"You three better go back."

Yang Qi sighed.

When Wang Gui heard this, he stiffened his neck and said, "No, if you don't agree, the three of us won't leave." ”

Yang Hong nodded solemnly and said, "If you don't agree, we won't leave." ”

Although Lao Yang didn't speak, looking at the posture blocking the door, he must have this thought.

"Hey~"

Yang Qi took a step back slightly and bowed.

Lao Yang and the three of them were all stunned.

Before they could react, they heard Yang Qi say: "If the three of you insist on this, then I will not respect the elderly." ”

"Zama and Aoki, take the three of them down, and serve them with delicious food and drink."

Lao Yang and the others were stunned.

Seeing the imperial guards rushing up, he immediately exclaimed, "You want to imprison us." ”

Yang Qi said with a smile: "I have to do it as a last resort, I hope that the three of you will forgive your sins, and I am also for your good." ”

The three of them looked at it, and it was hard to do.

Immediately, Yang Hong suddenly wailed and shouted, "Your Majesty! I'm miserable! Life is so bitter! ”

was called by him like this, and the imperial guards were also stunned in place.

Wang Gui also wailed on the side: "Your Majesty, I also have a hard life!" ”

It is impossible for Lao Yang to wail in front of Yang Qi, it is too embarrassing.

He just stood there coldly, with a posture that whoever moved him would hit whom.

Yang Hong tugged at Yang Qi's sleeve and sighed: "Your Majesty, I will tell you the truth today." You say that in this world, who doesn't want to lie down and eat and drink well, and don't have to do anything?

But I can't lie down now.

Being poked and scolded in the back every day, I feel uncomfortable. ”

Yang Qijian raised his eyebrows sideways, and said coldly: "Who scolded, are you tired of it?" ”

Yang Hong waved his hand and said: "It's not important, the important thing is that you have to give me a chance to prove myself." ”

Yang Qi was stunned.

Yang Hongxu chattered: "When I was in Fuxing Mansion before, the little thing in my stomach was still useful, and I taught it to the students, and they were quite humble to learn. But since arriving in Yanjing City, the situation has been different.

The weapons and equipment of our Yan country's soldiers and horses have been changed one after another, and they have frequently played a majestic role on the battlefield.

The students felt that the set of tactics we were guarding was outdated.

They said that what the three of us old guys taught, they simply didn't use on the battlefield.

They also said that the three of us old guys combined were not a single opponent.

They even said that it was better for us three old fellows to teach them than to teach them from one of the border troops.

Say we don't when we stand in the pit. ”

Yang Hong pounded his chest and said sadly: "Your Majesty! You know, I used to be a Confucian general, and among many generals, I was the most valuable, and I won a hundred battles without defeat. Now that people are saying this, my heart is bitter!

You've got to give me a chance to prove myself.

I don't want to prove how great I am, I just want those little bunnies to see that I can still fight Yang Hong. ”

After Yang Hong finished speaking, Wang Gui continued: "Your Majesty, don't you know that those little rabbit cubs are now turning the sky upside down. We went to teach, and they didn't listen, saying that we were useless old guys. Someone even sent me a letter behind my back, telling me to get out of the Yanjing Martial Arts Academy quickly, and don't mislead people inside.

I, Wang Gui, have fought for half my life, and it is the first time that someone has said this.

Can you understand how bitter my heart is? ”

Yang Qitou was as big as a fight, and scolded: "This group of boys is too rampant, they should be taught a lesson." Chen Lin, you take people to teach them a lesson. ”

Chen Lin opened her mouth and smiled bitterly, "......"

Under Lao Yang's gaze, Chen Lin slowly withdrew from the imperial study.

Yang Qi begged Yang Hong and Wang Gui repeatedly, but he still didn't say yes to them.

However, in order to appease them, Yang Qi said solemnly: "Don't be sad two of you, if you want to prove yourself, I will help you find an opportunity." You go down and wait for the news first, and then make a decision after I have discussed the distribution of benefits with the Zhe family, what do you think? ”

"Will you really give us a chance?"

"Uh-huh......"

"Don't lie to us, if you lie to us, we will, we will ......"

"Hang yourself in the Imperial Study!"

"Yes, hang yourself in the Imperial Study!"

“……”

Under Yang Qi's promise and comfort, the three old children were coaxed away.

As soon as they walked on their front feet, Chen Lin entered the imperial study on tiptoe.

Yang Qi was stunned, "Didn't I ask you to clean up the group of boys in the Yanjing Martial Academy?" ”

Chen Lin smiled bitterly and said, "Your Majesty! You have been deceived by the Emperor. The three of them were in the Yanjing Martial Arts Courtyard, and they were covering the sky with one hand. The students were tossed by him and cried for their fathers and mothers, and when they saw their legs and stomachs, they all trembled, how dare they scold them. ”

Yang Qi was stunned for a moment and smiled bitterly.

"It's a good thing I didn't promise them, otherwise I would have fallen for their tricks."

After Yang Qi sighed, he ordered: "You sent people to guard the main road in the palace, and after you found them in the palace, come and remind me." I would never have agreed to let them lead their troops on the march.

Their bodies can't afford to toss. ”

Chen Lin nodded in agreement.

Yang Qi, accompanied by Zama and Aoki, rushed to the post station outside the palace.

When I saw Zhe Yuqing again, Zhe Yuqing's face was bitter like a wolf.

"Foreign envoy folds the imperial secretary, see His Majesty the Great Yan Emperor......"

When Zhi Yuqing saw Yang Qi, he immediately bowed down and saluted.

Yang Qi stepped forward quickly, helped him up, and said: "When I was in the court, I was the emperor of the Great Yan Kingdom, and when I got out of the court, I was your nephew." How can there be a reason for an uncle to give a gift to his nephew. ”

In the bitter laughter of Zhe Yuqing, the two returned to the main room of the post station and sat down.

Zhi Yuqing said with a bitter face: "Qilang, with your mouth, you want me to make seventy percent of the benefits of the Great Jin in the Holy Roman Empire, which is too much." ”

Yang Qi picked up the teacup on the table, took a sip and said with a smile: "Uncle, others don't know about the Holy Roman Empire, but I know everything about my nephew. Since your soldiers and horses have arrived in the Holy Roman Empire and have fought with the soldiers and horses there, then you probably know the information of the Holy Roman Empire.

What a lot of territory that is, I believe I don't need to say it, you know it in your heart.

The richness of that land is only a cut below that of our Central Plains.

But that place is not lost to our Central Plains.

If the Zhe family occupies it, it will be equivalent to having a foundation that is not lost to my Yan Kingdom, which is thousands of times better than the current place of your Jin Kingdom.

With that piece of land, even if you are a wealthy family, even if the Cao family is inferior, it will be inferior to you by three points.

You eat a whole piece of bread, and all I want is seventy percent of the sesame seeds on the cake, which is not too much. ”

Zhe Yuqing's face became more and more miserable, he looked at Yang Qi with resentment, and said, "You want to eat sesame seeds here, you obviously want to eat the icing in the cake, let me fold the dough." ”

After hesitating for a moment, he gritted his teeth and stretched out four fingers, "Forty percent, forty percent at most." ”

Yang Qi put down the teacup and tapped the cup with his fingers, clanging.

"Uncle, you have to understand, without the help of my Dayan Kingdom, you can't gnaw on this bone. So I want seventy percent of the harvest, which is not much. The Holy Roman Empire is like an acre of wheat. All I want is seventy percent of a harvest in a wheat field. But you are able to guard the wheat and reap it again and again.

Compared to what my Yan Kingdom has to pay, this is actually not much. ”

Zhi Yuqing stretched out a slap in pain, and said in a deep voice: "Fifty percent, at most fifty percent!" ”

Yang Qi shook his head and smiled, withdrew his fingers that were tapping the cup, and proposed, "Look, how about it ...... like this?"
