The fool has become a spirit, and she can speak

Ge Dongqing was not optimistic about Sha Guanghan's proposal: "We still need to think about this matter in the long run. We have been fighting for years and our military strength is limited. I am willing to go to Yatuo to lobby and disintegrate the relationship between him and Dalang!"

Sha Guanghan also disagreed with Ge Dongqing: "It's too late. Didn't you hear what the emperor said? Yatuo's army has already set out, and they are all cavalry. They will soon be at the gates of the city. If we delay any longer, Fengqi will be in a passive position."

Ge Dongqing said: "We can't confront them head-on at this time. Since we can't stop Yatuo, I can go to Dalang and negotiate with them!"

Sha Guanghan was indeed impatient. "What can we talk about with a dishonest villain? A defeated country that doesn't keep its promise dares to rebel and attack Fengqi! Since they don't keep their promise, don't blame us Fengqi for killing them!"

Ge Dongqing said: "There may be room for maneuver in this matter. I will go to Dalang first to take a look, and then decide whether to fight or make peace!"

"No need to look, their army is already on the way, what else can we Fengqi say to him Dalang!"

"I don't want to negotiate either. It's a fact that we don't have enough troops right now. The war in the south has not ended yet. If we become enemies with the two countries of Langya, I'm afraid that we will suffer losses. We should rest and recuperate until we are strong enough to fight again."

"Don't I understand what you said? He broke the agreement first, so I must defeat him this time."

"How long will it take you to defeat Dalang?" Wan Lianxing, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke.

Sha Guanghan thought for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, this is hard to say. Yatuo's cavalry is unrivaled in the world. Dalang and him have joined forces. We cannot underestimate them. I dare not say big words, but I, Sha, promise that I will never let them violate my beggars! I can issue a military order!"

"I will give you three months to capture Qunyang County, and then two years to pacify Dalang."

General Sha Guanghan couldn't help swallowing his nonexistent saliva when he heard this. This mission was quite heavy! He was confident that he could pacify Dalang, but it would take more than two years. A lean camel is bigger than a horse. If he wanted to pacify Dalang, it would take at least five years, provided that they had strong soldiers and horses. However, the emperor's order was hard to disobey, so he saluted Wan Lianxing and said, "Your Majesty!"

Ge Dongqing said matter-of-factly, "Your Majesty, two years is too fast. It will take more than three months to conquer Qunyang County."

"My words are the imperial decree, General Sha, please issue a military order!"

Looking at Sha Guanghan who was hesitant to move, Wan Lianxing said: "If you are not sure, I can give the task of attacking Dalang to someone else!"

"I obey your command! But Your Majesty, you must allocate more troops to me!"

"How many troops do you want?"

"fifty thousand!"

"Humph, look inside my imperial city and see if there are 50,000 soldiers!"

"Then it will be 40,000. No less. Your Majesty, don't worry. I can recruit soldiers myself."

"Why recruit soldiers or buy horses? Just take your 20,000 men and head east immediately to wait for the soldiers from Dalang and Yatuo! If one comes, I'll beat him. If two come, I'll kill both!"

"Your Majesty, although I am proficient in deploying troops, 20,000 soldiers are really too few!"

"I will let Yan Shizhao be your military advisor and give you a batch of weapons. You must bring Qunyang County into the territory I beg for within three months."

"Your Majesty, what weapon?"

"I'll have someone take you there to see for yourself!"

As soon as Sha Guanghan left, Cheng Youning took the opportunity to come over, "Little Grandpa, I heard that you came back from a night trip!"

Wan Lianxing smiled and nodded. He answered the question irrelevantly: "Have you been to Prince Pang's mansion to see your grandparents?"

"I'll go there every day. After I meet my little grandfather, I'll go to Prince Pang's mansion to visit my grandparents!"

"Didn't you see little grandpa in the court?"

"Grandpa didn't even look at his grandson just now!" There was a hint of complaint in Cheng Youning's words.

Wan Lianxing looked at Cheng Youning carefully and said, "You have grown taller...Okay, Grandpa has seen you, you can leave now!"

"Why are you in such a hurry to get rid of your grandson? I still have something to say!"

"you say!"

"It's the letter my grandfather Ge wrote to you. Have you read it?"

Wan Lianxing looked at Ge Dongqing who was sitting there a little stiffly. Ge Dongqing stood up quickly and said, "Brother, I will leave first and come back later!"

"Grandpa Ge, why are you leaving? We just need to clarify things!"

Wan Lianxing waved his hand, motioning Ge Dongqing to sit down. He was in no mood to accompany Cheng Youning in making trouble at this moment, so he helped Ge Dongqing out and said, "I have read the letter written by your grandfather Ge. I agree to revise the "Prince's Instructions"!"

"Really?" Cheng Youning's eyes lit up, and his mouth was grinning from ear to ear with joy! "Then can I throw away the copy of "Prince's Instructions" in my hand?"

"Although the copy of Prince's Instructions in your hand is not perfect, it is still kept for future use. For the time being, you should discipline yourself according to it." Wan Lianxing glanced at the people around him and ordered, "Go and call the people I have appointed to compile the law code!"

"Yes!"

Cheng Youning was anxious, "Little Grandfather, what are you asking those stubborn ministers to do?"

In Cheng Youning's eyes, the group of people appointed by his young grandfather to revise the code were very fussy and rigid. They often quarreled over a word, and in serious cases, they would go to the emperor to ask his young grandfather to decide who was right and who was wrong. At this time, he was talking about his "Prince's Instructions". Why did he ask those people to make trouble? Cheng Youning objected. No matter how anxious his young grandfather was to deal with the government, he had to finish his business first. Everything should be based on first come first served.

At this time, he heard his grandfather say: "Ask them to revise the Prince's Instructions for you. They are rigorous in their studies and highly talented. They will definitely be able to revise a few volumes of the Prince's Instructions that will satisfy me!"

The light in Cheng Youning's eyes dimmed, and the corners of his mouth were no longer upturned, now they had become straight lines. He wanted those old stubborn people to revise the "Prince's Instructions" for him? His little grandfather asked him to revise "several volumes" right away. Didn't his little grandfather understand his intention? In terms of gains and losses, Cheng Youning was very good at calculating, and his little abacus in his mind was already crackling, "Little grandfather, your grandson wants me, Grandpa Ge, to revise the "Prince's Instructions" for you."

Ge Dongqing, who was sitting there, was in a dilemma and in great torment. If he went, the emperor wouldn't let him go. If he didn't go, Cheng Youning would target him again.

Wan Lianxing immediately rejected the idea: "Your Grandpa Ge is not the best candidate."

"I think my grandfather Ge is very wealthy and rigorous in his studies. He is the most suitable person to revise the "Prince's Instructions" for my grandson!"

Wan Lianxing shook his head: "Your grandfather Ge is my sworn brother, and we have a very close relationship. I am afraid that he will be partial to you and the revised "Prince's Instructions" may not be rigorous enough. I will simply give this task to someone else!"
