I traveled with them to the Northern Song Dynasty

Chapter 100 Zhao Ya just boasted

...

When it comes to making women pregnant, Zhao Ya has never disappointed anyone.

Well, under the gaze of Pei Sui and other women who had served him wholeheartedly, Zhao Ya admitted that he had just boasted.

But then again, Zhao Ya's record in this regard is really quite good.

Moreover, at the critical moment, Zhao Ya really did not let him down.

In just over a month, Zheng Xiansu's belly started to move because of Zhao Ya.

Crisis resolved.

All the women in the harem were cheering for joy. Their emperor could free himself once again, and their good days were finally back.

Zhao Ya was also very happy!

Zheng Xiansu was beautiful and obedient. She would do whatever Zhao Ya asked her to do. Although she was the queen, she was really submissive in front of Zhao Ya and behaved no worse than any of his concubines.

But men all have bad habits. No matter how good a woman is, after being with her for a long time, they will definitely become greedy and want to try different women.

The saying goes, "A wife is not as good as a concubine, a concubine is not as good as a secret lover, and a secret lover is not as good as not being able to have one" – this is the mentality.

What's more, Zhao Ya has so many women queuing up waiting for him, how can he not be distracted?

But Zhao Ya also knew the importance of giving birth to a legitimate eldest son.

Therefore, in the past month, except for the few days when Zheng Xiansu refused to fight, Zhao Ya went to Wang Yisu and Guo Ting's place to sleep for a few nights. The rest of the time he spent working on Zheng Xiansu, trying to give birth to his own eldest son first and solve the issue of inheritance first.

The key point is that before this, Zhao Ya really didn't know how long he would have to work so hard to complete the task.

Good luck!

This kind of life lasted only more than a month, and then Zhao Ya was free.

Plus, there might be hope for the eldest son.

Zhao Ya rewarded everyone in the harem to celebrate.

After accompanying Zheng Xiansu for a while, Zhao Ya went to the martial arts field according to his habit, ready to continue practicing "Prisoner Conditioning" and "Yoga".

As Zhao Ya expected, Li Lin was already here. She had been practicing for a while, and her body was covered with fine sweat, so that her charming waistline was shining.

Seeing Zhao Ya coming, Li Lin stopped immediately and went to help Zhao Ya change clothes.

Zhao Ya looked at Li Lin's homemade tactical vest (actually, at Li Lin's voluptuous belly) and said, "My beloved, this bra is very unique. Where did it come from?"

"I taught my maid Cui Nianyue and others how to sew. I also taught them to sew a set for you. Would you like to try it?" Li Lin asked.

In fact, Zhao Ya didn’t like the clothes of this era, but he was a “native” and if he rashly tried to make clothes from later times, he would be exposed, so he never did it.

Now that Li Lin had come to him, Zhao Ya took the opportunity to take advantage of the situation: "Good, that's fine."

Li Lin immediately went to get the tactical vest she had prepared for Zhao Ya and helped Zhao Ya put it on.

Not to mention, Cui Nianyue and the others didn't know how to know Zhao Ya's size, but this tactical vest was sewn quite well.

Li Lin not only prepared a tactical vest for Zhao Ya, but also tactical pants and military boots, and even combat uniforms.

It can be seen that after becoming a real woman, Li Lin also showed her feminine side. In other words, she has the willingness to dress her man in the way she likes.

After Zhao Ya had changed all his hair, Li Lin was very satisfied. She thought to herself: "If I cut my hair into a buzz cut, it would be even more perfect."

Next, under Li Lin's guidance, Zhao Ya started practicing again.

When Zhao Ya had almost finished practicing, Li Lin suddenly hugged Zhao Ya from behind and said bluntly: "Your Majesty, I have thought about it."

Li Lin originally thought that she would be able to get pregnant after the previous three attempts and successfully give birth to a son for Zhao Ya.

No, Li Lin is overthinking it.

On the appointed day, Li Lin's relatives arrived on time, not late at all.

This made Li Lin very disappointed, but also made her eager for the next opportunity to sleep with the emperor.

In fact, Li Lin wanted to find Zhao Ya some time ago.

But when Li Lin heard Zhang Chun say that Zhao Ya wanted her to sleep with him, she refused to stay.

Li Lin knew very well how much Zhang Chun wanted to sleep with her.

The fact that this photo of Chun was not kept is enough to show that that period was really not suitable for serving the emperor in bed.

'A lack of patience can ruin a great plan.'

Therefore, Li Lin has been enduring it to avoid being targeted by Zheng Xiansu, who is not easy to deal with.

Now that Zheng Xiansu is pregnant, Li Lin has another chance. How can she endure it anymore?
Zhao Ya also wanted Li Lin's unique body, and he also liked Li Lin's straightforward personality, so Zhao Ya carried Li Lin into the attic without saying a word.

Li Lin was particularly well-behaved today. No matter what Zhao Ya thought, she actively cooperated. Even when Zhao Ya asked her to do the same as Zhang Chun, although she was very reluctant, she finally obeyed.

afterwards.

Zhao Ya hugged Li Lin and asked, "Tell me, what do you want?"

——Zhao Ya knew very well that there must be something wrong when things were abnormal. Li Lin, who was always proud, was so well behaved today. It would be strange if she asked him for help for no reason.

Li Lin gave up everything just for this moment!
So, seeing Zhao Ya giving her a blowjob, Li Lin quickly lay on top of Zhao Ya, and begged Zhao Ya with eyes full of desire: "Your Majesty, can you take me to the parade ground to inspect the Shen Ji Left Army and the Shen Ji Right Army?"

Ever since the Shenji Left Army and the Shenji Right Army arrived at the Kaifeng parade ground, Li Lin has been using a telescope to observe these two new armies that she had built at great cost.

Li Lin found many problems and told them in detail to Tong Guan, who then told them to Zong Ze and others. But for some reason, there were a few mistakes that were never corrected.

Li Lin wanted to go to the training ground in person to see where the problem lay.

But Li Lin was the imperial concubine, and without Zhao Ya to accompany her, she could not go anywhere.

Therefore, Li Lin tried her best to please Zhao Ya, wanting Zhao Ya to take her to see the Shen Ji Zuo Jun and Shen Ji You Jun that she had been thinking about.

Zhao Ya also wanted to see how the two armies he was most looking forward to, the Shenji Left Army and the Shenji Right Army, were training.

Besides, Li Lin, this arrogant big sister, has made such a great sacrifice. If Zhao Ya doesn't give her some sweet rewards, will she still work so hard in the future? The key is, if Li Lin can really help Zhao Ya train the Shen Ji Left Army and Shen Ji Right Army into strong armies, won't Zhao Ya still benefit?

So, Zhao Ya didn't waste any words and immediately asked Li Lin to help him put on his clothes, and then asked her to change into the eunuch's clothes...

……

Zhao Ya and his group were still some distance away from the closed training ground when the noisy sounds of training reached Zhao Ya's ears.

Zhao Ya said to Li Lin, "You have a good momentum."

Unexpectedly, Li Lin frowned and shook his head, as if he disagreed with Zhao Ya's opinion.

Just when Zhao Ya wanted to ask Li Lin what he had heard, Tong Guan, Zong Ze, Zhang Shuye, Wang Bin and He Guan, who had already received the notice, hurried over to greet him.

There is no need to say much about Tong Guan. He followed Zhao Ya when Zhao Ya was still the Prince of Shen. When Zhao Ya ascended the throne, he naturally rose with the tide and became one of Zhao Ya's trusted eunuchs. He currently serves as the chief of the inner palace.

Zong Ze was born into a poor family with a tradition of "farming and reading to pass on the family tradition". He worked with his brother since he was young, and learned to read and write under the guidance of his elders during the slack season.

When he was a teenager, his family moved to Ersanli Town. Zong Ze witnessed the corruption of officials in the Zhao Song Dynasty and the invasion of foreign enemies, and he began to have the ambition to save the country and the people.

Before he was twenty years old, Zong Ze traveled abroad to study for more than ten years, pursuing the way to govern the country. Later, he studied military books seriously and practiced martial arts hard, and grew into a young man with extensive knowledge and both literary and military skills.

In the sixth year of the Yuanyou reign, the 33-year-old Zong Zecai took the provincial examination and passed it, then entered the palace examination. During the examination, he vigorously criticized the current ills and the court, but because of his outspokenness, he was placed in the "bottom category" and was granted the "same status as a Jinshi," thus entering the official career.

After becoming an official, Zong Ze's political achievements have always been outstanding.

But because of his humble background and late debut, Zong Ze was only promoted to the rank of county magistrate when he was almost forty years old.

The key point is that without Zhao Ya, Zong Ze would have been stuck at the magistrate level forever, never being promoted to the magistrate of Dengzhou until he was nearly 60 years old. Later, he was demoted due to an incident and submitted a petition to retire.

It was not until the first year of the Jing Kang period that the Jin army invaded the south again. Zong Ze was able to take up the task and repel the invading Jin army in Cizhou, making his name known throughout Hebei.

Now, not long after Zhao Ya ascended the throne, he quickly promoted Zong Ze to his side.

Although in terms of level, Zhao Ya did not improve Zong Ze much.

But who doesn't know that as long as he is by the emperor's side, he will not only have a high status and great power, but also many opportunities, and Zong Ze will soon become an important official?
In fact, Zhao Ya was already prepared to use Zong Ze to establish a police system to solve the problem of redundant troops in the Zhao Song Dynasty.

However, now is not the time to take action. Besides, Zong Ze does not have enough qualifications now.

That's why Zhao Ya let Zong Ze train the army, and then sent him to the front line to gain military merit and prestige, and then gave him more responsibilities when he came back.

Zhang Shuye was in a similar situation to Zong Ze.

When Zhang Shuye was young, he liked to talk about military strategies. When he grew up, he was appointed as a recorder and military officer in Lanzhou with the help of his father.

Lanzhou is located on the border of the Song Dynasty and relies on the natural barrier of the Yellow River for its own protection. Every year when the Yellow River freezes, it has to be on alert to prevent the invasion of the Qiang people, and the soldiers have to keep their weapons with them for several months.

Zhang Shuye said, "This is not a good strategy. Instead of defending the strategic location, we are pushing the enemy towards the Yellow River. Our army is in danger."

There is a place called Tiandu, which is located between the five routes. When the Qiang people invade the interior, they must first gather there and then discuss the direction of the invasion.

After inspecting the terrain there, Zhang Shuye planned a strategy for attacking and finally succeeded in capturing the place. The imperial court built a garrisoned city called "Xi'an Prefecture" there, and from then on Lanzhou was no longer threatened by the Qiang people.

Zhao Ya used this as an excuse to transfer Zhang Shuye to his side to serve him.

Zhao Ya also had some officials like Zong Ze and Zhang Shuye, including Liu Qian, Zhang Xiaochun, Zhao Kai, Zhang Que, Xu Ji, etc.

Zhao Ya kept some of these talents by his side to train, and also sent them out for training if there were suitable positions.

In short, Zhao Ya adhered to the principle of giving importance to talents but not forcing them to grow, allowing these talents to be fully trained and put to good use.

As for Wang Bing and He Guan, needless to say, they were both famous generals from Kaifeng who were capable of fighting to the death. They were exactly the generals Zhao Ya wanted who could lead the Shenji Left Army and the Shenji Right Army.

With these people training the Shenji Left Army and the Shenji Right Army for Zhao Ya, Zhao Ya felt that these two new armies had the potential to sweep away all enemies for him.

After Zhao Ya had Tong Guan and the others leveled their positions, he said bluntly, "Let's go and see my new army."

After he finished speaking, Zhao Ya was the first to enter the training ground.

Probably because they knew Zhao Ya was coming, the soldiers of the Shen Ji Left Army and the Shen Ji Right Army practiced particularly hard.

However, although Zhao Ya was an outsider, he had participated in military training after all, so he could still see that the Shen Ji Left Army and the Shen Ji Right Army seemed to be a little strong on the outside but weak on the inside, but he could not see where the problem lay.

Zhao Ya turned around and asked Li Lin: "What's the reason?"

Li Lin said, "They didn't seriously train their formations, but hurriedly practiced their battle formations. That's why they advanced and retreated so disorganizedly, making them vulnerable."

Li Lin's merciless evaluation made Zong Ze and others look unhappy.

It wasn't that they didn't want to practice those boring formations, but the problem was, the battle was about to begin, and what good would it do to just practice standing and marching? Naturally, they had to use this precious time wisely, that is, to practice battle formations directly. As for standing and marching, even if they wanted to practice them, they had to wait until they had time.

Also, they didn't know who this little eunuch who looked like a rabbit was and why he was so arrogant.

Unexpectedly, Li Lin then told Zong Ze and his friends about the problems they encountered as if they were familiar with the back of their hands, forcing Zong Ze and his friends to take Li Lin seriously.

In order to make Zong Ze and others pay attention to her guidance, Li Lin began to point out the key points of positional warfare tactics, ambush tactics, siege tactics, and anti-cavalry tactics that she had personally designed...

What Li Lin said was exactly the same as the new army tactics that Tong Guan taught them. How could Zong Ze and others not know that although this young eunuch was young, he must have some real skills.

Zong Ze and the others sighed in their hearts, "After all, he is someone close to His Majesty, he is truly an extraordinary person!"

Li Lin then pointed out the true strengths of the Shenji Left and Shenji Right Armies: "If these two armies are to be effective, they must obey orders and have close coordination between the various arms to ensure smooth and unimpeded tactical execution. Otherwise, they will be vulnerable..."

Zong Ze and others are all very wise people, how could they not know that Zhao Ya brought Li Lin here to guide them?
They listened attentively and asked Li Lin to answer their questions.

After both sides established initial trust, Li Lin told Zong Ze and the others about the tactical issues they were most concerned about:
"The Liao army has always been known for its cavalry, but our Divine Machine Battalion's anti-cavalry tactics can precisely curb their mobility and impact. We'll first deploy our Tiger Crouching Cannons in a circular defensive formation, with our Divine Arm Archers stationed in the center and our Thunderbolt Throwers scattered outside. When the Liao cavalry charge, we'll first fire our Thunderbolts from a distance to blunt their attack and reduce their momentum. As the Liao cavalry draw closer, we'll hurl our Thunderbolts to startle their horses and disrupt their formation. Then, using the firepower of our Tiger Crouching Cannons, combined with our own cavalry's countercharge, we'll surely defeat the Liao cavalry..."

In Zhao Ya's opinion, Li Lin at this moment is the real Li Lin. Her eyes are full of light, which is the light that comes from doing something that she is truly passionate about.

"It's as if you were born to be on the battlefield, not a concubine within the palace walls."

Zhao Yadu felt sorry for Li Lin: "It's a pity that you wore it at the wrong time, otherwise..."

Well, leaving aside those unconfirmed legends, Zhao Ya really didn't know which woman could leave such a significant mark on the battlefield that belonged to men. Was it Qin Liangyu, the only female general in the Ming Dynasty to be awarded a title for her military exploits? It seemed there was no other woman, right?
"Perhaps the battlefield shouldn't belong to women, especially in this age of cold weapons. Hao Zhanlin's dream of commanding an army will likely remain just a dream forever..."
