"How?" Yun Zhao looked back, looked at Han Zhong, and asked with a smile: "Mr. Han is a master of contemporary military strategy. Are these soldiers still obsessed with it?"

Han Zhong took a deep breath, allowing his trembling lungs to calm down in a short period of time. "Is this the reserve military system that the governor has long implemented under his rule? I have always thought that this reserve military system is just like local regiment training, and I didn't expect it to be a regular army."

Yun Zhao laughed: "Over the years, from the Anqing border army to the Northern Expedition Army, we have been fighting continuously. Every year, a large number of disabled soldiers and older soldiers retired. How to resettle them is a problem we need to consider. These people have made great contributions to the victory of the Northern Expedition Army. They cannot be left alone just because they can no longer fight. Therefore, we organized them to train reserve soldiers in the civilian country. The Northern Expedition Army will pay them military salaries as usual. They are still considered soldiers of the Northern Expedition Army. To be honest, they were just to solve the livelihoods of these people. But after several years, I did not expect that the reserves trained by these retired soldiers are not much more than those of the regular army. This is also a surprise."

Han Zhong looked at the solemn reserve phalanxes with strict military regulations at the city, and the officers standing in front of the formation who were more or less disabled and even white-haired and white, murmured: "If you don't abandon it, don't give up, these people will naturally do their best to serve the governor."

"Don't abandon, don't give up! Well said!" Yun Zhao applauded and praised, "This is the foundation of our Northern Army. As long as we join the Northern Army, we will always be our brother, family, Mr. Han and Lin Ya's defeat in Lu Ning. He mistakenly estimated the power that Huo Zhenting could use. He believed that Huo Zhenting had only more than 20,000 troops, but what he might never expect was that Huo Zhenting could use was more than twice as much as he estimated. He had not even figured out the opponent's living power, so it would be invincible!"

Han Zhong remained silent.

"Mr. Han, do you think my submission to these reserve troops will allow the Northern Army to gain the greatest benefit?" Yun Zhao asked meaningfully.

Han Zhong touched the corner of his mouth, as if he was smiling bitterly, while Malihan on the side was already pale.

Regardless of the two people's current feelings, Yun Zhao said to himself: "Some generals suggested that I send them directly to Liangzhou to attack Bolu or Cheng Qun. Some generals suggested that I directly invest them in the battle of Yanjing, increase the offensive efforts against Yanjing, and earn their contributions to the battle of one battle, and take down Yanjing, and end all one!"

The Malihan on the side was blushing, which was a naked threat. "There are still 100,000 men in Yanjing and strong city defense. The new generals and the governors really attacked Yanjing. I wonder how many people could go home?"

Yun Zhao laughed. He ignored Malihan and just looked at Han Zhong.

"These new forces are naturally the best to cross the south of the Yangtze River!" Han Zhong said with a smile.

"I also want to cross the south of the Yangtze River, but sometimes, I can't help myself. If things in the north are not solved, it will be difficult to get out of here!" Yun Zhao said.

"Isn't this trip just to resolve the conflict in the north?" Han Zhong stroked his beard and thoughtful.

"There are many difficulties, many difficulties!" Yun Zhao said.

"No matter what difficulties are, they can be solved, right?" Han Zhong said.

"That's right. Forget it, I'm too lazy to pay attention to these things when you talk to Ma Yigong and Guo Changxing and others." Yun Zhao waved his hand and said freely: "If you can reach a conclusion, you can fight, and if you can't reach a conclusion, you can fight. It's nothing more than two ways."

Han Zhong and Malihan both looked a little blue.

Wu Fan walked out of the city tower and whispered a few words in Yun Zhao's ear. Yun Zhao nodded and smiled at Han Zhong: "Mr. Han, it is rare to meet him by chance. In the city tower, there is already a thin wine. Yun asked Mr. Han to have a drink! Drinking the strong wine, listening to the war drums and horns, and looking at the golden swords and iron horses, for us generals, it is a great joy in life, how about it?"

Looking at Yun Zhao's appearance, Han Zhong's heart moved slightly and turned to Malihan and said, "General Ma, you go back to the inn first. If those men return to the inn, they will inevitably be a little excited if they don't see you and me. You go to comfort them first. I am here, but I will accompany the governor to the fullest."

Yun Zhao did not invite Malihan in his words, so Malihan was naturally tactful. Could it be that Yun Zhao would even drive him away? Han Zhong gave him a step, so he naturally had to go down the slope.

"Yes, Your Highness, the prince, I will say goodbye first!" Malihan said with his fists.

"Wu Fan, instructed General Ma and his group in the inn to take good care of each person. They should not be short of anything when needed. This is etiquette and the demeanor of my Northern Army. Don't be a little chick, do you know?"

"Don't worry, the governor, I will save you!" Wu Xin nodded repeatedly.

"Please, Mr. Han!" Yun Zhao waved his hand and gave in.

"Please ask the governor!" Han Zhong naturally refused to take the lead.

Inside the city tower, several basins of charcoal fire made the whole room warm as spring. A hot pot was burning on a small copper stove. The soup was boiling and the fragrance was everywhere. On the small table, there were more than a dozen small plates, and all kinds of meat and side dishes were available. Han Zhong was slightly surprised. He didn't expect that Yun Zhao would actually invite himself to eat hot pot. This was obviously a bit casual, but he was inadvertently narrowing the distance between the two sides. Obviously, this was something Yun Zhao had thought about.

"Yesterday Wu Fan took a few people out to hunt and actually caught a deer. It was really not easy to be in the snow and ice. Mr. Han also has a good reputation. Come and ask!" Yun Zhao said with a smile.

Han Zhong was not polite either. He sat by the stove, picked up chopsticks, held a few slices of venison that were as thin as a cicada's wings, and rinsed it in the soup, and put it in the mouth, "Okay, the meat is good, the soup is better!" He nodded repeatedly.

"I made this soup by myself!" Yun Zhao smiled and said, "When I was a hunter, I often hunted some wild animals. The ability to make soup was learned at that time. I have never had the chance to make it again in many years. Today I can get Mr. Han's praise, but it is not a great honor for me to have my skills not yet put down!"

"That's my blessing!" Han Zhong smiled and said, "There are not many people in the world who can eat the soup pot prepared by the governor himself!"

Yun Zhao laughed: "It's right. My civil servants and military generals are all over my command, but no one has ever eaten the hot pot I made myself."

Han Zhong put down his chopsticks, "I wonder why the governor treats me so well?"

"If you give politeness to others, you will have something to ask for." Yun Zhao looked at the other party with a smile.

"I am now the Prince of Mongols and the envoy of peace talks. If the governor hopes that I can let go of water during the peace talks, it is impossible, let alone, even if I let go of water, Your Majesty will not respond. It is still the moon in the water and the flowers in the mirror." Han Zhong shook his head and said.

"Wrong!" Yun Zhao shook his head repeatedly, stretched out his chopsticks and held a few slices of venison, scalded it, and then placed it in the small plate in front of Han Zhong. "I said before that the peace talks are the matter between you, Ma Yigong, Guo Changxing, and others. I will not ask about it until the result is out. What I said is something else."

Han Zhong looked at Yun Zhao in a daze, and after a while, he said, "The governor was born in the countryside and was a hunter. Within ten years, he had hundreds of thousands of soldiers. He was a great minister. Most people thought that the governor was lucky. Han Zhong used to think that although the governor had a plan, he was still lucky. When he saw him today, he realized that there were no empty soldiers under his reputation. The governor's achievements today were definitely not caused by luck, but inevitable!"

"How can I see it?" Yun Zhao asked with a smile.

"Now I am the governor, I am still an enemy, but the governor has a question in his heart and dares to come and ask me for advice. Han is ashamed of this great wisdom, courage and a big heart." Han Zhong sighed, looking at Yun Zhao, his eyes were full of admiration.

"If you listen partially, you will be dark, and if you listen both, you will be clear. Sometimes the enemy's judgment is clearer than yourself, let alone Mr. Han is very talented, so he must teach me." Yun Zhao said seriously, "Does Mr. Han know what I want to ask you?"

"But it's the matter in the south?" Han Zhong said.

"That's right!" Yun Zhao nodded, stood up, walked a few steps in the room, turned around, and looked at Han Zhong, "Sir, Yun Zhao has not yet made a fortune in fighting for the world today, that would be insincere. But for me, there is a huge obstacle now."

"Famous!" Han Zhong said.

"Not bad, reputation!" Yun Zhao said: "Mr. Han must also know that Li Jian's failure has been for sure. Brother Wu has made a comeback. Although I have done some work, the results are unknown. What should I do if Li Jian is defeated and Li Xiao ascended the throne? It is widely rumored in the world that Li Xiao has the will of the late emperor in his hand. Now he has the help of Cao Yi. From the perspective of law, there will be no gaps to take advantage of. From the perspective of reason, the world will be the Li family. I am still a minister of Li."

Han Zhong smiled and said, "Of course, Li Jian will not die and fall into the hands of the governor. Using Li Jian's banner as a guise, he will command the world and raise troops to attack the rebels."

"If Li Jian is defeated, he can get the descendants of Li Jian or his will, and there are also names to be found."

"What if neither of these things work?" Yun Zhao asked.

Han Zhong smiled, "Governor, it's okay if Li Jian and his descendants die. There are so many descendants of the Li family in the world, so what if there is one? In order to return to the court to fight for the throne, Li Xiao gave up the northern land, causing millions of people to fall. This is a great crime. Guan Peng was full of prestige, and his disciples were everywhere in Dayue, but Li Xiao was killed. These two major crimes are the most important ones?" Han Zhong hesitated for a moment and looked at Yun Zhao.

"Mr. Han, please tell me!" Yun Zhao said.

"The governor has been fighting in the north for more than ten years, sacrificing his life to resist the Mongols, but Li Xiao has included the governor's wife in the harem. Such dirty and unrighteous acts are the best reasons for the governor." (To be continued.)
