What does my future have to do with you?

Of course, I can't answer this way. No matter what, the one in front of me is all his own body, and saying this is just a joke.

I want to make steel, build guns and cannons, first destroy the Tartars, then destroy the Southern Zhou Dynasty, launch a large army to fight westward, destroy the West, and then send a fleet to conquer the new continent and unify the whole world!

If it goes well, this is Xu Shiyang's wish, but he can't say it either - he is afraid of scaring Xu Muhe.

So, since you can't say anything, you can only say something good that can be accepted.

"My future..." Xu Shiyang pondered for a moment, then said: "My future is the future of the family."

"As long as the family is prosperous, as the eldest son of the second wife, I will naturally be able to live a comfortable and good life."

Speaking of this, Xu Shiyang sighed deeply and said:

"Father, this world will not be in chaos forever. When the world is unified again and the world is stable, I am a martial artist who is not easy to study, it will be useless."

"At that time, I hope you can persuade your fifth brother like you are today, so that you can take care of me, a brother who only knows how to fight and kill."

"Now, let me be the older brother first and lay a solid foundation for my younger brother!"

"Shi Yang, you are a good boy!" Xu Muhe was really moved - it would be better for his own son!

"Actually, it's not just our brothers, father, you... but also uncle, you have to think about future events." Xu Shiyang reminded in a low voice.

"When we are old, how long can we have? As long as you guys can be safe, we will be at ease."

Xu Muhe smiled disapprovingly. After the political speculation ten years ago ended in vain, all his ambitions were dead. Now, what he cares most about is the continuation of the Xu family and the future of his son (now Xu Shiyang can be added).

"Father, you and your uncle are all well-known Jinshi, how can you always get along with Tian Mo?"

Xu Shiyang whispered:

"I'll go to war. If I'm lucky enough to win a few games, the fifth brother's trip to Jiangnan is naturally the first priority. However, can't my father take the opportunity to take the position of county magistrate from Juzhou or Rizhao County from the court? Or, my uncle is in charge of Juzhou and my father is in charge of Rizhao, which is not impossible."

"Haha, the city of Juzhou is destroyed. I'm afraid there is not even a population of a fort inside. What's the point of coming?" Xu Muhe smiled and shook his head.

"If the name is righteous, the words will be smooth." Xu Shiyang explained: "As long as there is a formal appointment from the court, we can order all the forts in Juzhou and Rizhao counties."

This is a reduced version of using the emperor to command the princes.

Or, foxes pretend to be powerful.

After all, nominally, all areas north of the Yangtze River and within the Great Wall are still the territory of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and all the people above are still the people of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Although the court was in peace with Jiangnan and looked cowardly and unwilling to make progress, it still had an influence on the Han people.

There are indeed many people in Jiangbei, hoping that the Jiangnan court will fight the Central Plains in the northern expedition to the Central Plains and end this miserable and chaotic era.

If a local tyrant like the Xu family can get the official appointment of the court, it will indeed have the ability to overwhelm other surrounding families.

In addition, for the Jiangnan pro-war faction, resetting Juzhou and Rizhao counties can be promoted to the first time since the Jianxing year that the territory of Jiangbei was recovered (although Jiangbei has not been occupied by any foreign enemy now)!

This can play a very important role in consolidating the relationship between the Xu family and the Jiangnan pro-war faction.

Finally, it is also a more realistic benefit - it is normal for one's own officials to get some subsidies from the court, right?

There are so many benefits that Xu Muhe cannot be moved.

However, the prerequisite for all this is that the Xu family must do their best to support Xu Shiyang's counterattack against the Tartars in the next few years.

Only when the war is won and Xu Shiyang becomes a hero to fight the invasion of the Tartars, all this can be achieved. If he is defeated, he will be killed and destroyed!

Well, it's not right. If the attack on Fulai Mountain is successful this time, even if Xu Shiyang is defeated, the core members of the family can hide on Fulai Mountain. The Tartars are not familiar with the terrain, and they probably won't have any good solutions to the Xu family.

In other words, if Xu Shiyang wins, the Xu family will win, and if he loses, it will not cause too much harm to the Xu family!

Xu Muhe even admired his son a little!

"Shi Yang..." He sighed: "It's so lucky that the Xu family has you! Very lucky!!!"

"Father, you've been awarded."

Xu Shiyang lowered his head and concealed the smile at the corner of his mouth.

"Don't be humble. Too humble is arrogant." Xu Muhe said: "Do what you want! I will not give you all the villages for the time being, so as not to make others think that you want to take over the property of the second house."

"But I will support you with all my strength! Come to me directly if you want! As long as I have it, I can give it to you! You can command all villages in Erfang, and I will try my best to find a way to convince your uncle to support you!"

"Thank you father!"

This thank you is sincere - with the full support of my father, Xu Shiyang has much more resources to use.

Moreover, if the idea he gave to Xu Muhe today can be realized, it will also benefit Xu Shiyang himself!

If the Xu family can officially obtain jurisdiction in Juzhou and Rizhao counties, Xu Shiyang will have the opportunity to mobilize all the forts in the county to unanimously go to the outside world.

If Xu Shiliu could be an official in Jiangnan, the second wife would definitely be in his pocket. He would also bring him a lot of material and political support!

Is there anyone in the court easy to do? This has been the case since ancient times, and it has been the same in later generations.

If..., without if, today, Xu Shiyang is equivalent to taking out a strategic plan for the Xu family in the next ten years or longer, and this plan has been strongly supported by one of the "three giants of the family".

Working together in 5 villages is always much better than fighting alone.

"My father just said, 500 to 1,000 Tartar heads are enough, right?" Xu Shiyang confirmed.

"That's right!" Xu Muhe replied in a deep voice: "I'm in Jiangnan and I'm in the same year. As long as I have 500 Tartar heads, all the things you said are easy to do! But it's best to get it at once. If it can be done, it will be the greatest victory over the Tartars since the Jianxing year of our dynasty!"

"If there is no big victory, you have to accumulate more..." Xu Muhe's voice lowered a lot again. He seemed to think it was too difficult to behead 500 yuan at one time for the Tartars.

What many imperial officials could not do at the time, and letting their underage son lead a group of farmers to do it, which made Xu Muhe feel blushed and it was also unrealistic.

"The Tartars will come back next time, and there will be some time left." Xu Shiyang also guessed what his father was thinking. He said lightly: "Let's be prepared. It's too early to say this now. Our Xu family has to move forward step by step."
