It was two months later that the victory of Khotan had reached the Central Plains. This was still a threat to Dangxiang, and it had a relatively safe channel to convey messages. If it were put in the past, it might not have been transmitted to the Central Plains even after a few years. Although there were caravans occasionally passing by, you would have to count on a group of guys who were full of trains to provide useful information, so don't even think about it.

After counting it, it has been more than half a year since Brother Guo Xing and his friends went to the Western Regions.

The third child of the Ye family is already half a year old. The little guy is not only sleeping, but also eating every day. He is fat, pink and tender, and very beautiful. Moreover, this kid has a strong body. No matter how he teases him, he just laughs and never cries.

No one in the Ye Mansion doesn’t like this third young master.

Old Mrs. Ye even regarded it as a treasure, but Fu San was very worried, "Brother, grandmother is so spoiled. I am afraid that the child will not be able to do well in the future and will not be able to manage it well at that time."

Ye Hua chuckled, "Then you go and tell the old lady to tell her not to hold the child every day and not to treat it as a flesh in her heart. Go?"

Fu San gave him a blank look, "Do I dare?" Fu San turned over, leaned on her husband's chest, and said softly: "You have the most idea, think of a solution!"

Ye Hua was so annoyed by her that she couldn't help it. Although Fu San was worried a little too early, she had to be careful... Ye Day and Ye Er were born in Jinling. Before the age of three, they were all taught by their husbands. Although the two little guys were very naughty, they were kind-hearted and different from those playboys.

It's the third brother's turn. If Ye's spoiled as a "Jia Baoyu"-like character, Ye Hua would be pissed to death.

"Well, how to teach the child, it's not appropriate for us to say it, but one person can speak, and the old lady must listen."

"who?"

"Feng Zhen!"

Fu Sanchi was stunned for a moment, applauded and said happily: "Brother, you really have it. Parents are afraid of the teacher, and the old lady can't help but not listen!"

Speaking of which, this Miss Feng is really amazing.

She had already set up another school next to Qi Tongwen's academy, which specialized in female students. Many girls from Beijing went to class to study. By the way, Feng Zhen came to a few young ladies who were good at learning and went to give lectures.

Even many old people yell that women have no talent and are of no use. After all, the Five Dynasties inherited the Tang style and did not have too heavy constraints on women.

Many wealthy ladies respect Feng Zhen, especially her students passed the mansion examination not long ago. Although there are many women in the world, only Feng Zhen can afford the word "Mr."!

With her on her way, what else can the old lady say? Fu San happily raised his arms, revealing his white arms, and his tender lotus-like skin, which was flawlessly maintained.

She leaned into Ye Hua's ear and whispered: "Brother, how about you tell me I'm going to teach in girls too? By the way, can you stare at a few little kids?"

"Of course it's good." Ye Hua agreed casually, looking a little absent-minded. Although she had given birth to three children, her wife's changes were not obvious, and she was still so youthful. In addition, her martial arts exercise made her recover well and was full of attractiveness.

They are all old couples, and Fu San can easily detect her husband's thoughts. Her face turned slightly red and she took the initiative to cater to him. Ye Hua immediately roared, grabbed his wife's body, rolled around, and grabbed the initiative.

The candlelight is lush and the beauty is in my arms. Ye Hua, who has not known the taste of meat for a long time, seems to have found the feeling of the bridal chamber at the beginning. It is very sweet and intoxicating...

Some people like to swallow everything whole, some people like to chew slowly. It is good to sit in a forest, but time is fair to everyone. Everyone knows the truth that greed cannot chew too much.

Ye Hua is a person who is easy to satisfy, and there are too many serious things to deal with, so he really can't involve a lot of energy.

The war report from the Western Regions has been delivered.

Chai Rong immediately called Ye Hua into the capital.

"Hahaha, it's not bad, it's not bad!" Chai Rong said disdainfully: "This Black Khanate is nothing great. Tens of thousands of soldiers were defeated in three days. Ye Qing, are you overestimating them?"

Ye Hua chuckled and said, "As far as I know, the number of people in the Black Khanate is more than 200,000 tents, and more than 100,000 troops can be used at a time."

Chai Rong said: "It's not a small matter, but it's not worth worrying."

Ye Hua shook his head, "Of course there is no need to worry about the Black Khanate. What is really amazing is the Great Food Empire behind them."

"Yeah!" Chai Rong said: "I have read the historical records of the previous dynasty. The Tang army once fought with Dashi in Talas. In this battle, the Tang army dispatched 30,000 people, and only a few thousand people came back... This Dashi Empire does have some skills."

Chai Rong said again: "Ye Qing, I am still very confused. Could it be that the Hei Khanate regards the Dashi Empire as his father and is willing to be the son emperor? Otherwise, why is Dashi willing to help the Hei Khanate?"

Ye Hua said: "Your Majesty, the ones that contact the Dashi and the Black Khanate are the common sects."

"Section? Is it a Buddha or a Tao?"

"Not all, they are the sects that the bearded men believe in." Ye Hua said: "The big food helps the Black Khanate. In addition to considering interests, there is also the need for missionary preaching... This is also called fighting between gods and mortals. Those fanatical believers will go to the Black Khanate at all costs to help fight. They can ignore the interests, even life and death... In short, this is a very difficult enemy!"

Chai Rong frowned, and this was troublesome... It was simply interest, and it could be negotiated, compromised and exchanged, but when it came to faith, it was often endless.

After understanding this, Chai Rong also understood why the whole people of Khotan were so swaying against the enemy, especially the monks who were depressed and looked down on their faces, suddenly became violent! There was no way, they were fighting for the gods who believed in behind them.

Even monks can react like this, it is not difficult to guess how the other party will take revenge.

Fifty thousand troops are less than half of the Black Khanate's military force, and the Dashi Empire is at least ten times the Black Khanate's military force. If they are dispatched in full swing, it will be hundreds of thousands of troops, plus servants, and even more than one million...

When he thought of this, Chai Rong's heart kept falling, and the burden on his shoulders instantly became countless times heavier.

"Ye Qing, we must win this battle!"

Ye Hua nodded vigorously, "Of course, Your Majesty wants to create a great cause that surpasses the Han and Tang Dynasties, the stumbling block of the Great Food Empire must be moved away! But the conflict at this time seems to be a little earlier!"

To be honest, Ye Hua hopes to march from the sea, first establish a stronghold, and then slowly erode whale and swallow it. Compared with the big opening and closing of land warfare, starting from the ocean has a higher success rate.

But Chai Rong doesn't think so, he has two reasons.

First, Chai Rong had a strong sense of mission. He inherited Guo Wei's foundation and unified the world. He wanted to surpass the emperors of all dynasties and push the Great Zhou to a supreme height. Second, as long as he crossed the Palacio Mountains, there would be endless plains... The land there was fertile, the climate was suitable, and it was very suitable for farming, but for a long time, it was sandwiched among the powerful nomadic peoples, and no one could gain a foothold in development.

The good farmland has become a ranch that you come and go... Chai Rong felt so distressed. If you don't succeed, let me come!

"I hope the great cannibals will come to my door on their own initiative, just burying them in the Western Regions. Then I can march westward. I want to double the territory of the Great Zhou!"

It was a very painful thing to follow an ambitious emperor. Chai Rong grinned casually and put forward his vision, and the people below would run away.

Ye Hua had to say goodbye to his wife and children and go to Chang'an to take charge.

His task was to supervise the construction of Shu Road, and at the same time he issued instructions to the Western Regions nearby to let them deal with it with caution.

When Ye Hua arrived in Chang'an, the first batch of slaves who had traveled from the Western Regions had arrived. When he set out, he arrived in Chang'an, only 230 people were left.

Most of the dead were from long journeys, and the wounds were cracked and infected.

Ye Hua didn't expect that Brother Guo Xing would allow the people below to do this, nor did he expect that Yutian would be so cruel!

It seems that you can't treat the little guy as a child.

Ye Hua did not hesitate, and he immediately threw the slave into the project.

Zhang Wei was also playing with his life. Originally, Li Gu colluded with the gentry and merchants of Shu Kingdom, smuggled and seized wealth, which made the people of Bashu decay and complained.

Zhang Wei recruited and ordered the civilians to build roads, which caused civil unrest and also impacted the Yizhou Office... This was a big deal. Zhang Wei was already ready to lose his head.

The civil war was uncontrollable, and the imperial army advanced. After a chaotic war, he would definitely use his head to calm the public grievances.

In other words, when the army sets out, it will cut off its head and sacrifice flag.

But what Zhang Wei did not expect was that the rebellion did not spread, and with the road construction, the chaos in Bashu became more and more peaceful... Zhang Wei thought carefully and gradually reached the key.

Because the military provided a large number of slaves, cement, gunpowder, wood, etc. were used to build roads, and the orders were placed and the money was spread... unexpectedly alleviated the deflation in Bashu.

With the source of fresh water, refugees in the city have work to do. When they get wages, they can buy food and cloth, and even farmers have a livelihood...

The Shu Road, which was originally a waste of money, has become a way to make money to alleviate the crisis.

Zhang Wei didn’t know what to say, but I guess the faces of the cabinet’s officials must be very exciting!

With the addition of new slaves, Zhang Shi estimated that the Shu Road project could be completed about one year ahead of schedule.

Ye Hua was still satisfied with the progress... Just as he was planning his next move, Zhao Er sent a secret report. He sent personnel to disguise themselves as Khitan envoys and went to the Black Khan National Alliance.

Zhao Er provided the latest gunpowder to these people and instructed them to kill the Black Khan King, including other Uighurs and Tubo envoys, at the alliance ceremony, all of them were bombed to death!

Zhao Er was very confident and told Ye Hua that this move could bring more than half a year of preparation to Khotan, and even delay the war...

Ye Hua cannot object to this plan, but it is not considered support. After all, assassination cannot solve the problem, but if it can delay time, it is a good idea. What the Zhou lacks the most is time.
Chapter completed!
