Chapter 1342 I want to go north!
"Junior brother, when should I set off?"
In Bianjing City, Lu Junyi was questioning Ren Yuan.
"Second Brother, why are you in such a hurry?"
Ren Yuan was somewhat amused and exasperated. It had only been a few days since the New Year, and one or two of them were already volunteering for the mission?
"The first New Year, why not spend more time at home with your sister-in-law? Second brother, you need to change this habit. I'd like to hold my nephew soon."
Ren Yuan said, "Second Brother, you never learn from your mistakes. Back then, you were never home after you got married, which is why Li Gu broke into your house."
Although your current sister-in-law is very good, and you have Gao Chong as a child, shouldn't your Lu family also keep a bloodline?
"Junior brother, senior brother, this, this..."
When the topic turned to his children, Lu Junyi suddenly stammered.
"Second Brother, Master said that of the three unfilial acts, the greatest is to have no offspring. If you cannot leave an heir, I will not let you go to the battlefield."
Ren Yuan shook his head. Anyone can go, except Lu Junyi.
"Junior brother, I am the number one in the world! Who can hurt me?"
Lu Junyi's face flushed slightly, but his tone suddenly became very domineering.
"I don't care who can hurt you, but if you don't leave any bloodline, then your master will take care of you. Second brother, if you don't listen to me, won't you listen to your master?"
Ren Yuan said, "Don't give me that crap. So what if you're the best in the world? You still can't beat your master."
“Junior brother, but, but, Brother Du Xue, he, he…”
Lu Junyi's tone softened immediately. There was no way around it; the better Du Xue of Nanye performed, the more anxious Lu Junyi became. Now the people of Bianjing knew that Du Xue, the second best in the world, was fighting fiercely outside, so how could he, the best in the world, fall behind?
"Second Brother, you're getting too attached to appearances. No matter how powerful Boss Du is, the people will naturally say he's the second strongest in the world, or that if the second strongest is this strong, then the strongest must be even stronger. No matter which way you say it, you're not at a disadvantage."
Ren Yuan patted Lu Junyi on the shoulder; he valued his second senior brother quite a bit.
"Besides, Second Senior Brother, you've already made a name for yourself in Korea. On the contrary, Boss Du hasn't made any significant contributions before. Why don't you give way to him? Besides, the world is so big, there will be plenty of opportunities for Second Senior Brother to make his move in the future."
"Junior brother, don't lie to me. In a few years, junior brother will have grown up, and there's also Zaixing. At that time, you'll probably send the two of them to war. What will I have to do then?"
Lu Junyi said, "Don't lie to me, I'm very smart."
"Then you, Second Senior Brother, have to take responsibility for teaching. After Master passes away, our entire sect will depend on you. Junior Brother keeps clamoring for me to become the Marquis of Champion, and Senior Brother is the Commander of the Imperial Guards. I also have to take care of the world. Our sect can only rely on you, Second Senior Brother. Master's title of Martial Saint will need you to carry on in the future."
Ren Yuan said, "Lu Junyi, you are going to inherit the sect in the future, so you should hurry up and learn from your master."
"Compared to my master, my martial arts skills are like fireflies compared to the bright moon. How dare I claim to have inherited his skills?"
Lu Junyi shook his head repeatedly after hearing this. Even though he was already the best in the world, he felt like he was facing a vast ocean or an abyss every time he faced his master. He was still far from being good enough.
"Then you should stay home obediently. Putting aside everything else, just look at Xiao Gao Chong. He's a natural-born martial god. Second Senior Brother, if you ruin him, it would be a real waste of talent!"
……
Lu Junyi was eventually persuaded to leave by Ren Yuan. There was really no other way, after all, he and Gao Chong's mother had only been officially married for a short time. If Ren Yuan really let Lu Junyi form a field army at this time, he would be asking to be kicked by his master.
"Nishino Han Shizhong, Minamino Du Xue, and also Higashino and Kitano..."
After seeing Lu Junyi off, Ren Yuan was also pondering the map himself.
The current situation is that the Western Field Army is strong and well-equipped, with a group of former Western Army leaders helping Han Shizhong. Moreover, Guan Sheng, a top-notch general, is the strongest fighting force in the Western Field Army, so defeating the Western Xia should not be a problem.
On Nanye's side, Du Xue's plan to fight three against one was a bit overconfident, but it wasn't expected that he would actually destroy the three kingdoms. He just wanted to expand his territory a little further, since the return of Dali was the most important thing, and the rest were just bonuses.
As for the South Sea Fleet, it is estimated that it will take another month or two before it can set sail, so there is no rush.
So... the problem still lies with you, Jin Kingdom!
Su Ding and Xie Ning have already infiltrated the capital of the Jin Kingdom and, relying on their personal abilities and their status as descendants of the Zeng family, have successfully obtained decent official positions in the Jin Kingdom. According to the message they sent back last time, Wanyan Aguda has also adopted a strategy of recuperation and has no plans to go south in the short term.
"We still need this land in Northeast China."
Ren Yuan looked at the Northeast region occupied by the Jin Dynasty and felt itchy, but Lu Junyi could not leave for the time being, so the commander of the Beiye Army still had to consider it.
Should we send Sun An or Bian Xiang?
Like Du Xue, these two men were capable of being commanders-in-chief, and their individual martial prowess was also very high. After thinking for a long time, Ren Yuan decided to let Sun An go first, since Sun An had followed him for a long time and was ranked third in the world.
"Someone is coming."
"What are your orders, Your Highness?"
Upon hearing Ren Yuan's words, the guards outside immediately responded.
"Go to General Sun An's residence and invite him here."
"Yes!"
The guard obeyed and left, but shortly after he left, two heads suddenly poked out from the doorway.
"Come on in, do you think it's fun to try and pry open the door frame?"
Ren Yuan didn't turn around; he was still looking at the map of the Northeast.
"Senior brother! I just saw Second Senior Brother go back looking dejected. Is it because you didn't want him to go north?"
Yue Fei led Yang Zaixing into the hall, and after bowing respectfully to Ren Yuan, he immediately asked with a grin.
"Your second senior brother is newly married. Do you think it's appropriate for me to send him to the battlefield now?"
Ren Yuan marked the locations of several important cities in the Northeast. If war broke out with the Jurchens, these cities must be captured quickly!
"That's definitely not appropriate, right, Zaixing? I knew my senior brother was wise and would never let my second senior brother go."
Yue Fei turned to look at Yang Zaixing, seemingly praising Ren Yuan, but actually secretly adding his own agenda:
"So, Zaixing, don't worry. There's no one in the world better at recognizing people than my senior brother. He'll make sure everyone is put to the best use, like on the battlefield in the north..."
"You and Zaixing won't work out."
Yue Fei was interrupted by Ren Yuan before he could finish speaking.
"Master, senior brother, I haven't said it yet!"
Yue Fei had a long face. He felt that he had spoken too slowly and should have spoken faster.
"I know what you're up to the moment you bend over. What's wrong? Have you forgotten our agreement? You can only go to the battlefield at sixteen."
Ren Yuan glared at Yue Fei. "You brat, trying to play tricks again?"
"Senior brother, I'm fifteen this year! I'm only one year away from sixteen!"
Yue Fei quickly argued back.
"The world is almost over, senior brother. If we don't fight now, we'll miss the boat. I want to go north!"
"First, there are still many battles to fight, and they are not over yet."
Ren Yuan still refused.
"Secondly, you are only fourteen, or even past your fourteenth birthday. If I add a year to your age, you will be fifteen, but I require you to be sixteen."
"Senior brother, actually, according to the customs of my hometown, I can be considered two years older than my actual age..."
