    Over the years, although there has been constant friction between Subei and Bei Mo, there has never been a real fight. First, there is room for both sides. Second, Shang Junlin led people to fight too hard, and Bei Mo did not dare to make any changes.

    A few years have passed, and time has dispelled fear and fueled the ambitions of Beimo people.

    Especially after successfully connecting with the upper-level officials in Subei, he gave them the wrong view that "the Subei army is nothing more than that". This drought made them think they had the best chance, and those in power could not resist the temptation. .

    "What is the current situation of the Subei Army?" Shen Yu was curious.

    "I asked Yinlongwei to go to Subei because I wanted to know how the Subei Army has developed over the years. I haven't been disappointed, and the drills have not fallen off. Over the years, the Subei Army has recruited a lot of new recruits. , they have never seen a real battlefield, I want to let them grow thoroughly through this time."

    No matter how powerful a soldier who has never experienced war looks, it is uncertain how he will perform on the battlefield. What Shang Junlin needs is not such a soldier. What he wants is a soldier who can fight for Da Huan.

    "Your Majesty, can you tell me about Subei back then?" Shen Yu blinked and looked at Shang Junlin with his cheeks raised.

    "Why do you suddenly want to know this?" Shang Junlin sat beside him.

    "I want to know more about Your Majesty. I have only heard of so many things that happened in the past. I would like to hear what His Majesty said in person." Shen Yu stared at Shang Junlin.

    His eyes are very beautiful. When he is focused on looking at someone, there is a fine light in his eyes, as if the only people in the world who can catch his eyes are the people he is looking at, and no one can resist such gazes.

    The same is true for Shang Junlin.

    He held the gloomy wrist and slowly talked about the events of the year.

    "The real confrontation with Bei Mo is that after I ascended the throne, the late emperor listened to the traitor and ceded Subei to Bei Mo, in exchange for a moment of peace, but Hungry Wolf will never know satisfaction, and one step back can only be exchanged for their progress. , With Subei, Bei Mo is still not satisfied, and wants more and more fertile land, just as I ascended the throne, I was too lazy to talk to ministers in the court, so I just brought my troops and horses to Subei."

    Shang Junlin has his own soldiers in his hands, which is the strength he accumulated step by step from the army in his early years. These people followed him from birth to death, accompanied him from nothing to become the master of a country, and witnessed his every step of growth, step by step. Regain the lost land of Dahuan.

    "Because it was the place that the late emperor took the initiative to send out, Subei did not experience a large-scale war. After the Beimo people entered Subei, they unilaterally tore up the contract that they could not oppress the people of Subei, burned, killed, looted, and committed all kinds of evil. I led troops to arrive. At that time, Subei had spontaneously organized a team to resist the people of Beimo, and if it really counted, this team could be regarded as the prototype of the Subei Army."

    Recalling the past, Shang Junlin's face was expressionless, and Shen Yu covered the back of Shang Junlin's hand with his other hand: "What about the army stationed in Subei?"

    "Let's evacuate first, how many loyal and good emperors have been killed in his old age, he will not care about the lives and deaths of these people." Shang Junlin's voice became cold.

    The capital is far away from Subei, and the late emperor was drunk in the palace, how could he have imagined how many people would be displaced because of his simple decision.

    "Fortunately, His Majesty was there at that time, and then Subei was rescued from the dire waters." Shen Yu said softly.

    "After I arrived in Subei, I reunited the soldiers who were scattered, and formed them with the local spontaneously formed team, and fought back. It's ridiculous. Bei Mo thought that the Dahuan people were easy to bully. Thinking that there will be a day when you will be counterattacked, the first war will be completely defeated."

    "Later, more and more people joined voluntarily. After more than a month of fighting, Beimo surrendered. I didn't want to deal with it, and the people in Subei didn't want to accept it. I took them and drove them out of the Dahuan realm."

    Shang Junlin's voice was low, even though the tone was flat and straightforward, Shen Yu couldn't help but follow his words and imagine the situation in Subei back then.

    Shen Yu knew that things would not be as simple as what Shang Junlin said. Shang Junlin didn't say much, and Shen Yu would not ask in detail.

    "At that time, I was outside all the year round. Thanks to King Li who stabilized the situation in the court, I later cultivated my own manpower, and King Li gradually reduced his sense of existence. I am grateful for his initial help, and I often turn a blind eye to him. One eye." Shang Junlin later thought about whether he did something wrong in this matter.

    "Does your majesty have a good relationship with several princes?" Shen Yu only knew that Shang Junlin had a very bad relationship with his half-brother, and those princes who were one generation higher didn't seem to like to get close to Shang Junlin.

    "Except for King Li and King An, there is nothing else to do." Shang Junlin was too old to expect family affection, and he didn't even care about his own father, let alone other uncles.

    Shen Yu was not surprised. Those princes were like mice meeting cats when they met Shang Junlin. At first, he thought he was frightened, but now it seems that from the beginning of the fight, those people were afraid of Shang Junlin.

    "There is only Ayu by my side," Shang Jun sighed in a low voice and took the young man into his arms, "Ayu can't leave me. If that day comes, I don't know what I will do."

    All his feelings were poured into Shen Yu. Before falling in love with Shen Yu, he once thought that he could only be alone on the cold dragon chair in his life. The arrival of Shen Yu brought him to see another look of life.

    "I won't leave," Shen Yu patted the man on the back to comfort him, wondering in his heart, "Why does Your Majesty always think that I will leave? I have nowhere to go without Your Majesty."

    Shen Yu does not deny that at the very beginning, he thought about leaving, and after all grievances were settled, he would choose a clean place to spend the rest of his life, but as he gradually got along with Shang Junlin, this thought disappeared unconsciously. .

    Shang Junlin couldn't tell the reason, maybe it was because of his nature.

    The Beimo royal family handed Da Huan a document, and they thought that the other party would admit to counseling and do as they asked, but within a few days, their scouts discovered traces of the activities of the Subei Army.

    "What did you say?!" Emperor Beimo stood up suddenly, with a look of disbelief.

    "My subordinates don't dare to lie. We did find the traces of the Subei Army at the junction with Dahuan." The soldier who spoke lowered his head, his voice trembling.

    "How is that possible?!" The Emperor Beimo frantically turned around a few times, "Didn't you say that Subei just experienced a severe drought, how could Dahuan have the courage to fight us?!"

    Beimo dared to go to war, in large part because Subei had just experienced a drought. In their opinion, the lack of food and grass supply was equivalent to a death sentence for the Subei army. After the disaster relief, the national treasury was empty. Seeing is not a wise move.

    The best development in the heart of the Beimo Emperor is that Da Huan admits his counsel and obeys them obediently. They will then lead the troops south to grab a wave in Subei, just to use these things to spend the winter.

    Unexpectedly, Da Huan's reaction was completely different from what he imagined. The female official who was in charge of negotiating with them was even more powerful. There was no one in the entire Beimo who could talk about her. Total victory.

    The Emperor Beimo held his breath in his heart for a long time. He originally thought that when they marched south, he would force Dahuan to dispose of this woman in order to vent his hatred.

    "What shall we do now?" a minister asked, frowning.

    The army has already assembled, and they can't give up just because of a little trouble. How can they hold their heads in other countries when it spreads out?

    "Since Da Huan refuses to make peace, don't blame us for doing it directly!" The Bei Mo Emperor's eyes were ruthless.

    At this moment, the Bei Mo Emperor didn't know that the Subei Army had already sharpened their knives, just waiting for them to come to the door automatically.

    "In the past, these Beimo people shrank their heads and turned their heads, and they couldn't enjoy a battle. This time, we may be able to fight happily."

    In the Subei Army, no one was afraid of this war. When they got the order from the imperial court, everyone was excited. Bei Mo had already ridden them. ?

    "As expected of His Majesty, who was able to drive the Beimo people out by himself back then, the response he gave in the face of the North Desert people's provocation was really heartwarming!"

    War is not a good thing for the common people, but for the people of Subei, they are willing to pay any price to fight the people of Beimo.

    The bloody feud of the broken family, the dead wife, and the separation of the family is not something that can be easily forgotten.

    Shang Junlin gave a secret order to He Chengyu, Jiang Huaiqing, and Fang Jiayi who stayed in Subei, roughly meaning: whatever you want to do, just let it go, and I will support you later.

    Fang Jiayi dared to turn the face of the people sent from Beimo to the ground again and again because of this imperial decree.

    The three of them are not stupid people. From Shang Junlin's actions, they can see his attitude towards Bei Mo. As ministers, they naturally have to share the king's worries, so they added a fire in this war.

    For example, the people in Beimo deliberately misunderstood that the Subei army was underpaid and was greatly affected by the drought. Another example was Fang Jiayi, who made Beimo very popular in every negotiation, but couldn't refute it.

    "She dared to do this, did His Majesty have instructed her?" Shen Yu looked at the document handed back from Subei, which described Fang Jiayi's heroic appearance in the negotiation.

    "Ayu really knows me, Bei Mo feels that this drought is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, why don't I think so." Shang Junlin admitted generously.

    "Does Your Majesty want to take this opportunity to beat Bei Mo or what do you want from Bei Mo?" Shen Yu's question hit the nail on the head.

    "Back then, Bei Mo took Subei from Da Huan, and this time, I also want them to bleed." Besides, the behavior of Bei Mo people has touched Shang Junlin's bottom line.

    "Your Majesty wants the land of Beimo?" Shen Yu was surprised.

    Shang Jun ordered Eunuch Meng to bring the map and open it on the table: "This area north of Subei is very suitable for raising horses. I want to train a cavalry."

    "Cavalry?" Shen Yu thought of Shang Junlin's private horse farm, obviously this idea didn't come up suddenly, "Since when did Your Majesty have this plan?"

    "I fought with Bei Mo back then and suffered from their cavalry. Later, I thought if I could form a strong cavalry, but Da Huan lacked too many things. Until now, this wish has not been realized."

    However, soon.

    Shen Yu pointed at the circled place on the map with his fingertips: "This place is near Subei, and it is convenient to come and go. Your Majesty's wish will soon be fulfilled."
