Hu Zhen, who was shocked, didn't expect that Yang Chendong would joke about such a thing, especially telling himself alone in such a private occasion. If you're really bragging, it's not necessarily good to do so. Isn't it difficult that your grandfather will compliment you? That is to say, to tell the truth is the correct answer.

Hu Chen looked surprised. All this was expected by Yang Chendong. With the strength of today's mercenaries, if you just choose the Beiming family as the enemy, it's not arrogant to take them. Just because of various reasons and immature conditions, he would not do so. But he still said such a result in order to tell Hu Zhen one thing, that is, the real strength of mercenaries. With such support, you don't have to be so careful in everything in the future.

Of course, Yang Chendong still has another mind. He has been away for a long time, so he can't often go back to the Royal Palace in chiembedded city to accompany his wife Hu Yan, but if he can move his family, she should be very happy. Taking this opportunity, he said tentatively, "Grandpa, to tell you the truth, mercenaries have a base at sea. It's very rich and pleasant climate. It's actually a good place to spend your old age. If Grandpa agrees, I'll arrange someone to send your whole family there immediately, so I don't need to worry about any emergencies in the future."

As I said before, many people suspect that mercenaries have bases overseas. But that's just a guess. There's no evidence. But now, Yang Chendong took the initiative to admit it and invited himself to go. For a time, Hu was a little excited.

This Daming is not that Daming, especially after dividing the north and the south, Hu Zhen just felt that life was far better than before. The original strategy of ruling the world by culture is changing towards the rule of the country by force. Whether it is the northern Ming dynasty or the Southern Ming Dynasty, if they want unification, they will inevitably have a big battle to fight. In this way, the position of civil servants is not so important. At this time, if Hu Chen chooses to leave, it is the right time, at least not to worry about the pain of war.

It's just that such an idea is just a flash in my mind so that it can disappear. Although Hu Chen is nearly 70 years old, he is still very strong. In his own words, he can still work for a few years. It's not impossible to promise Yang Chendong now, but he has only one identity there, Hu Yan's grandfather. If so, it's his way to pursue. What he wants is that others treat him differently. What he needs is to lay a good foundation for the Hu family.

He has been keenly aware of Yang Chendong's ambition. He is only in his early twenties, so he has found such a great foundation, and his future can be described as unlimited. As the wife of the National People's Congress, her family should not only eat the mountain sky, but also take this opportunity to do something. Maybe the Hu family will have a bright future in the future.

Suddenly, a road was in front of him. Is it broader or ordinary? Everything is between your own thoughts. So Hu soon made a decision, that is, he should work hard and strive for a better future for the future generations of the Hu family.

With a decision in mind, Hu Zhen shook his head slightly when looking at Yang Chendong, and then asked with a smile: "Zhongdan doesn't think I'm old. I tell you, I'm working for a few years

There's no problem at all. Besides, this place will become a supply line for your army in the future, and you need someone to keep an eye on it. "

Hu Chen rejected his proposal and made a decision to work for mercenaries. This surprised Yang Chendong. He sighed in his heart that smart people are smart people and know how to maximize their own interests. He nodded, "please Grandpa."

Hu Zhen's attitude suddenly changed, which was not a temporary achievement. Since the civil engineering reform, the Ming Dynasty has divided the north and the south, and it has become more and more difficult to be an official.

The decline of national strength and the lifting of martial arts make Hu, as the Minister of rites, even less brilliant in the past. In the past, how brilliant Daming was. It was the coming of all countries. There were many vassal countries alone. As a minister of rites, there were countless things to be done every year. But now? In addition to whether North Korea will send people to see them during the meeting, where other countries pay attention to them.

Moreover, the domestic situation is not very good. In the past, private schools were everywhere, and there were as many scholars and candidates. But now, the whole country has fallen into the armed environment, and scholars are not as popular as before. There are few things to worry about as a minister of rites. It's just to serve some royal etiquette every new year's festival.

Having been a minister of rites for so many years, Hu Zhen had never experienced it. Therefore, he had the intention to resign. If it was not for the sake of his children, he didn't know where to go after he really retired. After all, the world was not at peace. It was the capital of the northern Ming Dynasty and the Southern Ming Dynasty. I'm afraid he really resigned and retired. Now, he finally has a new goal, or the direction of struggle, that is to help the grandson-in-law and lay a better foundation for the future Hu family.

"Did you talk to Jin Ying about your title to the king?" it seemed that he suddenly thought of something. Hu Zhen looked at Yang Chendong with bright eyes and asked.

"No." Yang Chendong shook his head. It was mentioned before that he wanted the throne when he was doing things for Nanming, but it was delayed so that he simply didn't mention it when he arrived. Anyway, it doesn't matter whether he has the name of the Lord or not, and mercenaries won't listen to their own instructions for this reason.

Seeing that Yang Chendong didn't seem to care, Hu Zhen shook his head with a serious look: "no, no, fame is still very important. At least we can't suffer losses in terms of righteousness."

After understanding the meaning of Hu's words, Yang Chendong nodded thoughtfully, "OK, that's it. When I go back to negotiate with them, I'm putting forward it, but it's estimated that the other party won't agree."

Wang with different surnames was taboo in the Ming Dynasty. Except when the country was founded, there was no royal Lord other than Zhu. Of course, the Mu family was an accident, but in the final analysis, it was because the other party's strength was too weak and the influence was limited to one place. What if it was sealed? Yang Chendong is not. His strength is already very strong. If you give him a name, it's really hard to control.

"It doesn't matter. Whether you can promise or not is one thing, and whether you want to say it or not is another thing. At least you should tell your demands. Once the time is right, the trip will be based and assured." Hu Zhen said with an old thoughtful look. I immediately decided to support this grandson-in-law. Of course, I knew everything and said everything.

"OK, I see." Yang Chendong also nodded solemnly. Hu Zhe is right. Whether the other party agrees or not and whether he has made a request are two different things. Now we have to fight for it just to lay the foundation for the throne in the future.

While they were still chatting, the courtyard of Hu's house was already bustling. Hu Changning came back, and he came back unharmed, but the hundred households Gaosheng behind him was still weak.

Compared with Hu Changning's identity, it's nothing to promote a hundred households. He suffered a lot in the imperial prison, but he was still a man. He didn't say anything about the Hu family, which made him return with Hu Changning.

Mother Hu Wang and wife Hu Yu were naturally filled with joy when they got the news. Hu Zhen is going to be much more reserved. Yang Chendong has just said that he talked about Hu Changning during the negotiation with Jin Ying, and the other Party promised to release him soon. Now it seems that he acted very quickly. I think so. If you want to win Yang Chendong's financial support, if you move slowly, it will only add blockage to both sides.

When Hu Changning returned, the Hu family was very lively. Yang Chendong went out of Hu's house at this time and got into the big sedan chair. However, few people knew that after entering the front foot, Yang Chendong had left the car door in an unnoticed street. Under the cover of the night, he reported to Yang San waiting at the corner and rushed straight to a heavily guarded military camp in the west of the city.

Yang Chendong went late at night and still hid his body shape. The picture is naturally a big event. In fact, the place he went to was indeed a very confidential place, Daming artillery camp.

During the capital defense war, Yang Chendong used his power at that time to make friends with some Beiming generals, one of whom was Yang Guang, the Daming general who is now in charge of the artillery battalion.

After seeing the powerful power of mercenary artillery, the court of the northern Ming Dynasty invested a lot of manpower and material resources to study firearms. After more than two years of efforts, the new artillery was finally developed successfully. As a general of the direct artillery battalion, Yang Guang naturally informed Yang Chendong of the news through the secret agent of the Security Bureau at the first time, which was also one of his main destinations for returning to the capital of the northern Ming Dynasty this time.

He came late at night and just killed the royal guards during the day, which made the whole city stormy. I'm afraid no one thought he would toss like this. What Yang Chendong wants is to attack everywhere under such an idea. Others think he will not honestly return to Yang family village to hear the news of the emperor, but he does not. On the contrary, it is the safest way.

At the corner, Yang San had already prepared a Beiming soldier uniform suitable for Yang Chendong's figure. Then Yang San alone accompanied Yang Chendong straight to the fire gun camp.
