There is a lot of discussion among the people. This honor is truly unique!

As an official, you should be like Xue Huairen, and as a father, you should be like Xue Qing.

This father and son duo are really awesome.

The Xue family was at least extremely wealthy during the Yuanwu Dynasty.

Seven girls from one family all entered the harem. Throughout history, there has never been such a thing.

Xue Qing then became the most powerful father-in-law in history, and also the most powerful relative. Fortunately, the Xue family was passed down from generation to generation, and there were not many relatives.

Relatives and even few servants in the mansion have been expelled...

As for dealing with wealthy businessmen, it is even more unique!

He also never participates in social activities and does not engage in courtesy exchanges. He even has a bad temper. He always yells and scolds officials, and does not give face to officials who take the initiative to approach. He is also selfless and does not know how to be tactful.

Now it seems that Xue Huairen is all pretending. He knows better than anyone the reason why a big tree attracts wind...

Another reason is that His Majesty is confident and has absolute confidence in control, whether it is the harem or the court!

It is absolutely impossible for a foreign relative to interfere in politics in this dynasty!

No one knows what will happen next, and no one knows what His Majesty is thinking.

In short, people all felt that His Majesty valued Xue Huairen.

I don’t know how many people will envy a posthumous title Wenzheng.

Xue Huairen's death had a huge impact.

Not too long ago, something that shocked the whole country was mentioned... That was Yu Wenxiong!

When the news came back to Beijing, many people were shocked and confused.

The discord between Yu Wenxiong and His Majesty has been widely circulated for a long time. Even ordinary people know about it and there are many discussions among the public.

In the end it was fake.

Yu Wenxiong sacrificed his life in exchange for a great victory, and was posthumously named Wang Cheng, the first military general.

Xue Huairen used his dedication and hard work to achieve the prosperity of the new dynasty, and his posthumous title Wenzheng became an example for civil servants.

This civil and military force can be regarded as an example.

With such ministers in Daning, why worry about the mountains and rivers being in trouble?

There was a lot of discussion outside.

Guan Ning has returned to the palace. He has not been away from Beijing for a long time. He originally wanted to take a shower and change clothes, but he could not care less because of Xue Huairen's last words.

The map was unfolded, and everyone's eyes were focused on the Western Region!

For Daning, this is an unfamiliar area. No dynasty has ever set foot in it, let alone attempted to attack it.

On the contrary, the Northern Yi barbarians once launched an attack on the Western Regions.

The Western Region is considered an independent region. There has been no sign of invading the interior of the Central Plains over the years. However, the interior of the Western Region is complicated.

This is a vast land with thirty-six countries in total. The warriors of the Western Regions are also quite fierce. They have the same physique as the Beiyi barbarians, and are even bigger. You can tell by looking at the merchants of the Western Regions.

But they all doubted that it would be possible for the Western Regions to be like what Xue Huairen said?

In fact, they had never had such an idea before.

“Be prepared for a rainy day!”

Guan Ning said in a deep voice: "I believe in Xue Huairen's judgment!"

"Where are the 100,000 reserve troops?"

"In Xiying on the outskirts of Beijing."

Fei Tian, ​​Minister of the Ministry of War, responded quickly.

In the eighth year of Yuanwu, the imperial court began large-scale conscription. It was planned to recruit 200,000 new soldiers. In fact, the number of applicants far exceeded this number, and an additional 100,000 soldiers were recruited.

Guan Ning likes to hide his clumsiness.

He knew that the war was difficult. In fact, these 100,000 troops were prepared for the rebellion of the Northern Yi. When the Wei and Liang coalition forces began to attack, they were not mobilized.

"Is there any news from Beiyi?"

"not yet."

Pang Qingyun, the military commander, responded: "I received a letter from the Klei tribe nearly two months ago, saying that Beiyi is very peaceful..."

"When something goes wrong, there must be a monster. The news that King Beiyi was seriously injured and critically ill spread a lot, but there was no movement. How is this possible?"

"There should be a problem, and it might start now."

Guan Ning knows very well.

Even if there is any change in Beiyi, it should be at this time, when the Wei and Liang coalition forces attack Daning, the timing is perfect!

It's already June.

"We don't need to consider the issue of the Northern Yi for the time being. I feel relieved to have the Kelie tribe here. I will immediately transfer these 100,000 reserve troops to the northwest."

Guan Ning gave the order in a deep voice.

Xue Huairen's advice was not spoken casually. He should have made a comprehensive judgment, but he didn't say it out in the end...

Hope nothing happens!

Guan Ning looked heavy.

The northwest is almost undefended, with only a symbolic 30,000 troops deployed. The original intention is not to defend the border, but to maintain stability.

The northwest has strong folk customs and is a poor place. There were frequent uprisings during the previous dynasty, but they improved a lot after the new dynasty, and the foundation laid by the preaching of Wukong.

When the war actually breaks out, these 30,000 troops are nothing.

Moreover, there is not even a place to mobilize troops for support.

Because there are no troops stationed on the northern border, it is no longer fortified!

Guan Ning felt relieved and handed over the border to the Kle tribe, or rather to his father!

This was something that was unthinkable in the past. The previous dynasty's military focus and key defense area was in the north.

Now it has been completely changed. The Zhenbei Army has been in the south all year round. It seems more appropriate to change it to the Zhennan Army...

This is a helpless move.

Insufficient troops are always a flaw, just like patching up a wall.

Once you mend the east wall, it will be difficult to mend the west wall.

The main forces are in the south. There are Kled tribes in the north. What is there in the northwest?

Neglected!

wrong!

It should be said that it was unexpected because there was no reason.

Guan Ning didn’t think about it anymore.

He chose to believe Xue Huairen, but hoped it was not too late...

"Mobilize as quickly as possible and complete it within seven days, no problem."

Guan Ning looked at Fei Tian and Pang Qingyun.

A minister of the Ministry of War and a large military aircraft.

Large-scale military mobilization requires these two people to complete.

"no problem."

The two responded.

"That's it for now, I'm very tired."

Guan Ning rubbed his head.

He is indeed very tired.

Mainly because he was traveling in a hurry. In fact, he came back this time not only because of Xue Huairen, but also because he was worried about the safety of the north.

There is always no movement and I feel uneasy.

This can determine the direction of the war. Since the failure of the Battle of Crossing the River, the Wei-Liang coalition seems to have entered a period of silence.

The offense is no longer as powerful as before, but has become quite conservative. They would rather waste their time than rush to attack.

Apparently they were waiting.

If so, it would be equivalent to having foreign aid, and Daning would face the dilemma of being surrounded by enemies on all sides.

The Wei and Liang coalition forces will receive strong support and will definitely overcome their difficulties!

This is their chance.

As everyone knows, Guan Ning is also waiting.

If there is no war in the north, he will launch a counterattack...

But now it seems that it is not that simple.

Guan Ning put aside his distracting thoughts, took a bath and changed clothes, and went to talk to the girls to talk about old times and express their feelings, mainly the latter.

If he wasn't worried about the impact, he would definitely bring a bed heater.

As expected, the seven daughters of the Xue family were admitted into the harem, which made Ye Wushuang very unbalanced. Guan Ning had to work hard to stabilize her.
Chapter completed!
