Chapter 523: The elite of the Western Army of the Great Song Dynasty were willing to die for the No. 1 Duke (1st update)
"Why, could it be that Gao Xuanfu even had external support for Ping An Jingzhong?"
Seeing the three people exclaiming in unison, Gao Zhang slowly shook his head and tapped Ping'an Jing on the map with his leg fingers.
"Because the capital of Japan, Ping'an Jing, did not build walls or gates at all."
"...Are they crazy?!" The three Song generals all shouted in unison with disbelief on their faces.
"He doesn't know whether they are crazy or not, but that is not true. There is no city wall in Heianjing of Japan."
"There is a royal palace where their king lives, surrounded by a mud wall about five feet high."
Of course, this does not mean that Gao Zhang was talking nonsense rather than the truth. In addition, all Japanese buildings were made of wood.
If Yao Pingzhong is planning to attack Ping'an Jing by surprise, tsk tsk tsk... the prosperous Ping'an Jing must be very beautiful.
That made Gao Zhang couldn't help but think of several major events in later generations that made people happy, all of which had a great connection with the flames of the Xiaoyuezi Kingdom's Chongqiu City.
He took a look at Yao Pingzhong, a fierce general of the Western Army of the Song Dynasty who was very good at special operations.
Gao Zhang suddenly felt something in his heart and shouted outside. "Fu'an, Fu'an!"
"The villain is here, sir, what are your orders?"
"I'll quickly go to the warehouse to see how much blubber there is now."
Although Fu'an didn't know whether Hong Gongzi meant that he asked him to see how much whale blubber there was, he honestly jumped out.
Not long after the meeting, I came to report and found out that there were eighty jars of whale blubber in Ruming's warehouse. One jar weighed one hundred and fifty kilograms, and eighty jars weighed twelve thousand kilograms.
quantity.
Gao Zhang successively purchased a lot of whale blubber. Most of it has been sent to Bianliang, Tokyo, to please his master and his parents.
Bu Nao, twelve thousand kilograms, although it is not much, it is still a lot. After all, it is resistant to burning, and the burning-resistant whale blubber is a perfect match for the wooden buildings in the Japanese country.
After Gao Zhang thought for a while, he summoned Fu'an to come closer and whispered to him.
"I will bring more people to buy honey for him. The more the better, at least two thousand kilograms will be needed. If Suzhou doesn't have that much.
I will go to Changzhou and Xiuzhou. If it does not exceed two thousand catties, I will be considered as liquid."
"Sir, why do you ask for so much? Two thousand catties, how long will it take to eat?"
"I will go if you ask me to. He will be of great use."
Seeing Gao Zhang start to glare, Fu'an quickly agreed loudly and jumped out, crawling on the ground.
Gao Zhang then turned around and showed an enigmatic smile towards the three generals who were obviously confused.
For some reason, the three generals of the Song Dynasty who crawled over from the mountains of corpses and seas of blood were actually horrified by the smile of the No. 1 Scholar.

"Three of you, come on, come on, leave for now. General Yao, the suggestion I just made is very good. I would like to use a small elite force to surprise the capital of the Japanese king, Ping'an Jing."
"As long as it succeeds, it will definitely shake the entire Japanese country and make it difficult to advance or retreat, and the crisis of Fujiwara Kingdom will be solved by itself."
"Bu Nao, General Yao, he has an idea for General Yao's reference..."
If it weren't for other little babies, let alone Yao Pingzhong, even Fang La and Yang Zhen would just leave.
But the question is, in front of them is the wise child prodigy who is both civil and military.
No matter how unruly Yao Pingzhong is, there will be no distinction between others, not to mention whether he can achieve this feat depends on whether the child prodigy champion nods or not.
The few people who arrived from the east started to murmur outside the house and began to speculate on the feasibility of a surprise attack.
Yang Zhen and Fang La were not optimistic about it before, so they were worried that they would not be able to enter Ping'an Capital.
Do you know now that Heian Jing is basically an undefended royal capital?
The princes and nobles of Japan all live in the undefended capital, so they need good planning and good execution.
It will definitely provide the Japanese king with a stunningly beautiful fire.
Everyone kept talking to each other from daybreak until almost midnight, and then they dispersed hastily. The next day, they once again gathered in Gaozhang's mansion to continue the discussion.
Gao Zhang even hired craftsmen to make a rough model of Heian Kyo based on the map of Heian Kyo given to him by Fujiwara Tadayi.
Fu'an spent a lot of effort, but only managed to get nearly three thousand kilograms of honey.
Under Gao Zhang's instructions, he began to make something with a strong viscosity that was made of whale blubber and honey mixed in proportion.
In addition, Fu'an was ordered by Gao Zhang to collect a large number of pig urine bladders and cortical water bladders.
Due to the insufficient number of leather bladders on the market, Fu'an had to rush to the surrounding cities of Changzhou, Xiuzhou and Hangzhou to purchase them.
This caused the common people and traders in the three states to curse because they could not purchase water bags.
Even Gao Zhang could not guarantee the success of the surprise attack and how to retreat safely.
The test was conducted using the approximate distance from Changshu to Suzhou City.
Although Yao Pingzhong was a little unhappy, he had been persuaded by Gao Zhang before.
After all, Gao Zhang clearly told Yao Pingzhong that my surprise attack on Ping'an Jing would be a victory but not a defeat, and there would be no second chance.

Therefore, only through repeated deductions and military exercises can problems be discovered and solved.
"Gao Mou needs to ensure that General Yao and I can go home safely and become heroes respected by thousands of people."
Rather than denying the life and death of Wu Bi of the Song Dynasty, he walked in the bloody merits and enjoyed the cheers of the people."
At this moment, Yao Pingzhong and one hundred and fifteen elite Western troops under his command, including Yang Zhen, Fang La and other generals, were preparing to set off.
Everyone looked at the short, underage prodigy champion standing on the ground.
Looking at his childish but serious face, even though he is young, people dare not teach or insult him.
Yao Pingzhong pursed his lips, immediately rolled his horse on the east horse, knelt down on one knee and clasped his fists as a salute to Gao Zhang.
"Xie Nao Gao Xuanfu, the general and the rest of the brothers will definitely return with full success."
Behind him were more than a hundred riders, all riding on their east horses and shouting in unison.
Gao Zhang also saluted Yao Pingzhong and others. "Commanders, success is imminent."
"On horseback, let's go!"
Yao Pingzhong turned over and jumped on the horse's back, clasped his fists towards Gao Zhang in salute, then turned his horse's head and roared wildly.
More than a hundred horsemen from the Western Army roared in unison, like bolts of lightning, galloping away into the distance.
Obviously it was just an exercise, but everyone's hearts were filled with boiling blood and pride.
Yang Zhen looked at the team that was galloping away, turned his head, and looked at Gao Zhang who strode to a high place and looked towards the direction where the elite of the Western Army were retreating.
Dong couldn't help but sigh in a low voice towards the generals beside him.
"The performance of Duke Yuan of Yuan Dynasty since those confinement years is very clear. If it is not transmitted back to the northwest border area, it will be enough to make the elite of the Western Army of the Song Dynasty willing to die for Duke Zhuangyuan..."
