Li Kaifu Rises (2)

The descendants of Yan and Huang rarely joke about their ancestors.

Li Kai is Han Kingdom.

But going back a thousand or eight hundred years...

We may all share the same ancestor.

The people of the Qin Kingdom are also good.

People from the Chu Kingdom, it doesn't matter.

The states of the Qi Kingdom, Zhao Kingdom, Wei Kingdom, and Yan Kingdom are all included.

We are all descendants of Yan and Huang.

Although there is another possibility that they belonged to the Nine Li People under the control of the warlord Chiyou, after the integration and planning, and through the succession of the Xia, Shang, and Zhou dynasties, it is perfectly reasonable for them to call themselves descendants of Yan and Huang.

Anyway, history cannot be verified.

No one can trace back to history from thousands of years ago.

Even an insignificant assassin organization like the Net has become a giant in the assassination and intelligence world after surviving more than seven hundred years of erosion. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call it an uncrowned king. If there really is an organization that has been passed down for thousands of years, existed before the Xia Dynasty, and continues to this day with a complete history, then this organization may possess more than just history; it may also possess the power to overthrow the world.

Therefore, it is pointless to dwell on whether Li Kai is a descendant of Yan and Huang.

Even if his ancestors were the Nine Li People.

Intermarriage continued from generation to generation.

Culture or customs, it doesn't matter.

Under the influence of erosion.

Li Kai would never joke about his ancestors.

His guarantee is undoubtedly credible.

Although Ye Qingcang didn't need his guarantee, neither did Han Fei, Zi Nu, and Wei Zhuang, because they preferred to believe in facts and the principle that practice makes perfect, rather than such a simple guarantee, which was more reliable than any verbal promise.

"And this is the surprise I prepared."

"Hopefully this isn't a shock."

"I don't think so, anyway."

Ye Qingcang looked at Han Fei, not afraid that Li Kai would overhear their conversation. In front of Li Kai, he calmly arranged, "As long as you handle the Ghost Soldiers Robbery Case well enough, no one will pay attention to a mere Army Commandant. Even Ji Wuye wouldn't be able to detect that his Army Commandant has been replaced... As for the proceeds of the Ghost Soldiers Robbery Case... we can't touch the 100,000 taels of gold in military pay, because this pay is for rewarding the Border Army troops. If the Border Army rebel, Han Kingdom will have no more protection. Even your father knows this. But there's no reason why Ji Wuye would only covet this 100,000 taels of gold in military pay, nor is there any reason why only Ji Wuye could command these so-called ghost soldiers. Even if this isn't enough to take the money bag, Emerald Tiger, from Ji Wuye, it will at least make Emerald Tiger bleed a lot... Money to buy horses, make saddles and horseshoes, and recruit soldiers. See, here it is!"

Han Fei nodded thoughtfully.

He didn't know what methods Ye Qingcang had used.

He didn't want to know.

Unless Ye Qingcang is willing to let him know.

However, he was aware of the plan to buy horses, build his own retinue, or in other words, create his own armed force, because this was exactly what he and Ye Qingcang had planned beforehand.

Although it involves extorting money from Emerald Tiger or something.

This contradicts his definition of the law.

Although he is indeed the Minister of Justice now.

They have the power to convict people.

All you need to do is provide evidence.

As we all know, evidence can be forged. As long as you trap your opponent in a self-incriminating trap, even if they are innocent, they can prove their guilt. It is a trick that works every time.

But this did indeed violate his rules.

Even if we win.

That's still a loss.

Because the person who created this law disregarded the law, it must be said that this is indeed a great irony, a betrayal of himself.

Fortunately, he always advocated that legal principles should not be separated from human feelings!

Therefore, adhere to principles rather than rigidly following rules!

There are no unchanging laws in the world!

Use the methods of constant change to respond to the ever-changing situation!

This is the way of governing the country that he aspires to and seeks!

To put it simply, my heart and actions are as clear as a mirror, and everything I do is just!

Emerald Tiger swindle?

That's amazing!

However, before Han Fei could even voice his agreement...

Zi Nu then expressed a different opinion.

"To be honest, I don't recommend that you two, Ninth Young Master and Young Lord Ye, buy warhorses, build your own cavalry force, and then purge the court of corrupt officials."

"Firstly, Han Kingdom is not like Qin and Zhao. Qin and Zhao bordered foreign tribes and barbarians, so the cost of acquiring warhorses was extremely low. But we can't do that. We can only buy them with money. Even if we include food, we can't support too many cavalry. Moreover, we must also consider the cost and losses of transportation. Perhaps General Li Kai can indeed help us conceal this batch of warhorses. Perhaps General Li Kai can handle everything for us every time. But the losses of warhorses during transportation are still significant, and this is something we cannot change."

"Secondly, the terrain of the Han Kingdom is indeed not suitable for cavalry charges. Small groups of cavalry are fine, as it is true that there are no obstacles in front of warhorses. However, if you want to deploy more than three thousand cavalry into formation and charge like an overwhelming force, I must say that I cannot find any suitable place in the Han Kingdom to use this tactic. If the number of cavalry is less than three thousand, it is meaningless and not enough to be your trump card against Ji Wuye or even to turn the tide in the future."

"Thirdly, even if you manage to gather these cavalry, General Li Kai will deceive his superiors and subordinates, and Ji Wuye will be completely unaware of this. Your brothers, including your father, will also be wary of you, and will most likely try to strip you of control over this army... At that point, we will be fighting on two fronts, which will greatly reduce our chances of Quicksand."

Zi Nu pointed out the problem incisively.

In the end.

They didn't forget to deliver the final blow to Han Fei.

Despite what she said being true, "Moreover, all the advantages and disadvantages mentioned above are based on the premise that the Ninth Young Master can extort a fixed amount of profit from Emerald Tiger. If Ji Wuye intervenes, not only will the gains be minimal, but it might also backfire... Deciding on the cavalry at this time is taking too big a step!"

However, Zi Nu had barely finished speaking.

Before Han Fei could even speak...

Wei Zhuang countered from the side, "I believe that the formation of a cavalry is necessary, because highly mobile cavalry is the main theme of future warfare. Since we cannot win through quantity, we can only win through quality... Furthermore, we must plan ahead and prepare for any eventuality. We must have a cavalry force capable of countering Bai Yifei's White Armor Army. Only in this way can we keep Bai Yifei neutral!"

To put it bluntly, Wei Zhuang meant that we might not be able to support a large number of cavalry, but we must still build a cavalry force, even if it's a small one. If three thousand isn't enough, then three hundred will do. Building it now might be difficult and we won't see short-term returns, but the purpose of this cavalry force is simply to counterbalance Bai Yifei and his White Armor Army in the future. From a strategic perspective, it is necessary.
