Li Guoqiu, the military advisor of the Jurchen army, was sitting in his tent. He had an unkempt face and unkempt beard, and his eyes were bloodshot. There were some papers piled messily on the table in front of him, with various graphics drawn on them with a brush.
In the past few days, Li Guochou racked his brains to think of ways to deal with the Luoyan Army's firearms. Not only because of Wanyan Agu's scolding, asking him to come up with a way. At the same time, this was also what he felt in his heart.
Desperate to get things done.
Judging from various circumstances, Lin Jue, the coach of the Luoyan Army, had been exposed in Li Guoqiu's mind. Li Guoqiu collected and inquired about various deeds and experiences of this man named Lin Jue, and finally determined his identity.
The identity must be the same as myself, not from this world.
After confirming this matter, it did not bring Li Guoqiu the feeling of meeting an old friend in a foreign land. On the contrary, it brought great panic and jealousy. The fact that he was also a time traveler was already at a loss, and the time traveler
After that, Lin Jue was obviously doing better than himself. He was already one of the most popular figures in the world, and he also made firearms. On the other hand, he had accomplished nothing so far and could only defect to the Jurchens and use the power of the Jurchens.
I want to get a share of the pie. This is a huge difference compared to Lin Jue.
As a time-travelling person, he has more insights and knowledge than the people of the current world, so he is naturally unwilling to settle for mediocrity. Especially now, the world is an era where the strong survive and can enjoy life to the fullest. Being reduced to a humble common people, what fate
How is it different from an ant? So of course Li Guoqiu hopes to make a career. His identity in time travel is a descendant of the royal family of the Southern Tang Dynasty, which has long been destroyed. However, it has long since declined, and the entire family lives in seclusion in the mountains. Li Guoqiu is among them.
A child, who was possessed by time travel at the age of sixteen, had to be trapped in the mountains and forests for the next twenty years. Because of the family rules, as one of the many descendants of Li Tang, he was not special at all.
Not allowed to leave the mountains.
During this period, he tried to run out and venture into the vast world, but he soon discovered that the dangers of the outside world were such that he could not survive. Not only did his status as a member of the Li Tang royal family fail to bring him
He almost died outside. Fortunately, the family elders immediately sent people to capture him after discovering his escape. He and his parents were severely punished by the family. He
I was forced to sweep the floor of the family academy for three years and empty the buckets of shit for three years. He was unwilling to give in and eager to show off what he knew in his mind. As a result, the iron shell he talked about fell into the air.
Fei, why can we talk face to face even though we are thousands of miles apart? These words were regarded as nonsense, and he was almost regarded as a lunatic by his tribe and was imprisoned in a pig cage. Only then did he realize that there were so many things he knew in his mind that others did not know.
In fact, things cannot help him get what he wants easily. On the contrary, they may cost him his life.
After that, Li Guochou finally had to be patient and not dare to make mistakes. With more knowledge and insight than others, ten years later, he gradually gained some status in the family. He also understood the hope of the family's restoration of the country.
It has never been extinguished. Seizing this point, he actively offered suggestions. After all, he knew more than others, which made him stand out. In the past ten years, he has done a lot of things, studying firearms, making armor, and studying
Battle formations and military techniques have gradually become the core figures of the family. And he himself has finally set his sights on using the family's identity to restore the country. At least this is the hope of the whole family and will gain the family's financial resources.
Material and human support.
After twenty years of dormancy, the world changed drastically. Li Guochou thought that the opportunity had come. He proposed to the patriarch the idea of restoring the country with the help of the Jurchens. This was not just a whim. After twenty years of observation, he also realized this big problem.
The history of the Zhou Dynasty is similar to the history of the world he came from. A dynasty called the Song Dynasty at that time was destroyed by the Jurchen tribe. The rise of the Jurchen tribe was a historical trend, and he naturally had to follow the trend.
In this way, he finally walked out of the mountains and came to Wanyan Agu's tent. Using the Iron Buddha Cavalry as a meeting gift, he gained Wanyan Agu's trust and reached a cooperation agreement. In the mountains, he tried many times to make firearms.
The failure was naturally because this thing was too difficult to make and could not be conquered by gunpowder and smelting technology. He himself did not have the ability, because before time travel, he was just a small shop owner and had long forgotten the books he read.
, how could he know these fine details. But he still made some things, such as the Iron Buddha Armor. Although it was something that later generations knew after watching the plot of the Song-Jin War in the TV series, he really studied it. He
He thought that with the Iron Buddha Tu, he could help the Jurchens to sweep through the Great Zhou Dynasty, and he didn't need too many powerful things. However, after he came out, he found out that a man named Lin Jue had actually created it a few years ago.
Firearms. As the Jurchen army and the Luoyan Army fought, the firearms owned by Lin Jue were revealed one by one. He realized that he was already too far behind Lin Jue. This person had become an obstacle to his goals. Therefore, he must
Defeat him, capture him, and empty out the knowledge in his mind. After possessing firearms, I no longer need to rely on others, and my goal is not limited to the restoration of the Southern Tang Dynasty. I can completely sweep the world.
Therefore, for Li Guochou, how to find a way to defeat Lin Jue and resist the opponent's firearms is no longer out of compulsion, but a conscious behavior. To a certain extent, he has regarded the war in front of him as a conflict between himself and Lin Jue.
Lin Jue’s war between two people. Although in fact Lin Jue didn’t even know that Li Guoqiu was
Who? In fact, not many people would have special respect after hearing the name Li Guoqiu, but Li Guoqiu's first target had already been locked on Lin Jue.
In the past few days, Li Guoqiu racked his brains to find a way to resist the opponent's firearms. But there was no good strategy at the moment. Of course there are means, but in this era those are just dreams and cannot be realized. For example,
Li Guoqiu really wanted to make a steel chariot or a bomber. In that case, swarms of rockets and small grenades would lose their threat, and the defenses of hilltop cities would be completely ignored and they would directly crush their opponents. But the problem is
Yes, that's just an unrealistic fantasy.
Looking at the large pile of drawings on his desk with all kinds of powerful weapons in his memory, Li Guoqiu's mind was buzzing and he was very irritated. He grabbed a few pieces of papyrus in front of him and tore them vigorously to vent his irritation. At this moment, the tent
Someone came in at the door.
"Military advisor, the chief has asked you to go to the big tent to discuss matters. Please go there quickly." Those who came were the personal guards around Wanyan Aguda.
Li Guochou hurriedly stood up to accept the promise, feeling even more irritated. The leader wanted to ask himself again if he had come up with a solution. At this point, Wanyan Aguda must have just drank. He must have a bad temper. He will be scolded again.
His head was full of blood. Although in his own mind, Wanyan Aguda was not worth mentioning at all, but he was dependent on others and was already riding a tiger. He had to deal with him with humiliation. After all, he still needed to rely on his strength.
Li Guoqiu rushed to Wanyan Agu's Chinese army's tent with anxiety. Outside the tent, he heard Wanyan Agu's rough laughter coming from inside the tent. Li Guochou was very worried.
I'm surprised. Could it be that things have taken a turn for the better?
In Wanyan Agu's big tent, there were more than a dozen generals sitting high and low, all senior generals in the army. These people were also grinning, as if there was really something happy.
Seeing Li Guoqiu come in, Wanyan Agu nodded and said with a smile: "The military advisor is here, take a seat quickly."
Li Guochou hurriedly bowed and saluted: "Big Chief, I haven't found a solution yet, and I feel guilty to death. Don't worry, Big Chief, I..."
Wanyan Agu waved his hand and interrupted: "I know you haven't come up with a solution, and I'm counting on you. The day lily is cold. I'm not here to inquire about the progress. I called you here to discuss things with us. By the way,
You don’t know yet, do you? There is a letter here. Please read it for us first. Damn it, we are half-informed about Dazhou’s writings and can barely understand it. It’s just right for you to read it to us completely.”
Li Guoqiu felt relieved and breathed a sigh of relief. Wanyan Aguda handed over a crumpled sheepskin letter. Li Guoqiu took it with both hands and began to read.
"Brother Ma Bin, it's like meeting each other. It's been more than a month since I led the army out of the mountain. During this period, I fought with the enemy several times and achieved small gains. Now the morale of the army is high, and everything is going smoothly as we planned before. Now
The Jurchens and Lu thieves have joined forces to trap me on the long hill, intending to trap and kill my army here. Not only do they have sufficient dry food for our army, but there are also water sources on the hill. Our army can support it for at least several months.
The bandits have been suffering from the weapons of my Luoyan Army for a long time, and they dare not attack again in a short period of time. Therefore, the situation of our army is safe. I hope to inform the soldiers in the mountains that there is no need to worry."
Li Guoqiu read this short paragraph and was puzzled. He didn't know where this letter came from, but the tone seemed like a letter sent to Funiu Mountain by someone from the Luoyan Army. Could this tone be written by Lin Jue?
A letter? He had no time to think about it and could not wait to continue reading.
"...Now that my army is in safe hands, I am not afraid to fight them. The Jurchens and Lu Thieves seem to be lacking in resourcefulness. Originally, we were worried that they would take action to evade our army after learning that our Luoyan Army came out to fight.
Our strategy of empty key points in Luoyan Valley in Funiu Mountain will be what we are most worried about. But now it seems that they have not thought of this at all. What we are most worried about is the safety in the mountain. After all, there are only more than 10,000 soldiers and horses in the mountain now.
People, and the parents and families of the soldiers are all in the mountains, and they also have a large amount of food and supplies. These are the lifeblood of our army. Once Funiu Mountain is lost, the morale of our army will be dispersed, and the general situation will be lost. Therefore, we must not let it go.
If this happens, it will be out of control. This is why the younger brother asked his older brother to stay in the mountains for defense. The older brother leads the army well and is fearless in fighting. Such an important matter must be shouldered by the younger brother. But the younger brother is actually also very worried, although the older brother is brave and fearless.
No one in the world can match it, but after all, there are only 10,000 soldiers and horses, and they still have to protect hundreds of thousands of women and children in the mountains, as well as millions of grains and large amounts of supplies stored in the mountains. If the other party sends soldiers and horses to attack, it may be difficult to resist. Fortunately,
These worries are already unnecessary, and neither the Jurchens nor Old Thief Lu have thought of this. The elder brother must also be anxious and worried, but the younger brother told him that reinforcements will arrive at Funiu Mountain soon, and the soldiers and horses in your hands will soon be
If it grows stronger, even if the Jurchens and Old Thief Lu wake up and want to attack Funiu Mountain, they will probably be defeated."
"... I have only one request for my elder brother. If you persist for another half month to ensure the safety of the mountain, the situation will inevitably turn around. The prince has already ascended the throne, and you must have heard the news. That is what angered Thief Lu and the Jurchens.
Strategy. The reason why I hastily asked the prince to ascend the throne is to attract old thieves and Jurchens to come desperately to encircle and suppress my army, so that they will not focus on Funiu Mountain. And after the emperor ascends the throne, he will not
Several local officials also responded positively and swore allegiance. Some state governments in the Jianghuai and Bashu areas will send troops to respond. You will do so as soon as you receive this letter.
Send manpower to contact them and gather soldiers and horses from all over the Funiu Mountains. You will soon have a large number of soldiers and horses on hand. I estimate that in half a month, you will have 50,000 soldiers and horses on hand.
No matter how powerful the mountains are, we are not afraid of being taken advantage of by the enemy. That is our only weakness. Now that the Jurchen army and the Lu bandits are attracted by our army, we will pretend that food and supplies are not enough to attract their attention and let them
Continue to besiege us and buy you more than ten days. I hope that brother will survive this period of time."
"My wife and children are all here in the mountains. Brother can take care of them for me and tell them that everything will turn around soon. Brother should also take good care of himself, drink less, eat more, see more, ask more, and think more, to make sure nothing goes wrong. The day we meet
, and then drank and chatted happily, discussing the brotherhood together. He also said: This letter cannot be shown to others, and there are spies in the mountains to avoid leaking the intention. Burn it after reading it, remember it. I put it aside and wrote it myself, my younger brother Lin Jue."
Li Guoqiu read the letter completely in one breath.
Even though he had read this letter, Wanyan Aguda and his generals could only read the general meaning because of their incomprehension of Dazhou characters. Therefore, when Li Guoqiu read the letter in full at this moment
, Wanyan Aguda and the generals still listened attentively, and obtained information that they had not fully obtained before. At this moment, Wanyan Aguda’s mouth could not be closed with a smile, he was completely clear
the entire contents of this letter.
"Hahaha, God is really helping me. I always feel that something is wrong, that something is not done, that the situation should not be like this, that there are things that should be done but are not. Now that this letter came, I understand
Come here, it turns out that what I have been thinking about is to raid their lair. The Luoyan Army is a bandit in the mountains. There is no city territory outside the mountain. The only lair is Funiu Mountain. As long as their lair is taken away, they will have no choice.
What to rely on, not to mention that the families, parents, and food supplies of these soldiers are still in the Funiu Mountains. Isn’t this a desperate strategy? I have never turned this corner. I am really stupid. Hahahaha." Wanyan.
Agu laughed loudly while stroking his beard. All the Jurchen generals also laughed one after another.
Li Guochou also recovered from his surprise and hurriedly asked: "Big Chief, where did this letter come from? Was this letter written by Lin Jue?"
Wanyan Agu laughed and said, "Didn't you see it? The signature at the end of the letter is Lin Jue, so who else could be Lin Jue? Lin Jue also wanted to use a carrier pigeon to send this letter out, but he didn't know that under the siege of our Jurchen army
Under this, not even a fly could even think of flying out. I, the Haidongqing messenger, had been hovering in the sky for so many days and finally intercepted their carrier pigeon. Hahaha, Lin Jue probably thought that his letter had been sent out.
Well. He didn’t know that his letter just exposed all his thoughts and his weakness. It really made me laugh. Just like when Yelu Zongyuan tried to dig a dam and release the flood to drown my army, we intercepted it.
He got the information but didn't know it, and every move is under our control. Hehe, this Lin Jue is smart, but it's nothing more than that."
All the generals laughed wildly and said: "Although that kid is full of wisdom and tricks, he is not as clever as the big leader. It's ridiculous that he is still in the dark and doesn't know it."
"Isn't that right? Hai Dongqing has made great contributions. Yelu Zongyuan's poisonous plan the year before last year was that Hai Dongqing intercepted the information, and now he has intercepted such an important letter. The big leader has to reward Hai Dongqing with some titles. They can immediately
It’s a great achievement.”
"Bah, what did you say? That's because the big leader is clever. Hai Dongqing can't be born to intercept information. Doesn't it rely on the big leader's taming and training? Without the big leader to train them, they can't do anything.
.This is the foresight of the big leader, who began to tame Haidongqing for combat ten years ago."
"..."
Everyone was arguing enthusiastically, flattering, and flattering. Wanyan Aguda twirled his yellow beard and laughed, appearing to be extremely helpful.
For some reason, Li Guochou felt vaguely uneasy in his heart. He couldn't tell how uneasy he was at the moment, so he just frowned quietly and remained silent.
When Wanyan Aguda saw Li Guochou's appearance, he felt a little unhappy. He frowned and asked, "Military advisor, you don't seem to be happy about this news, do you?"
Li Guochou said hurriedly: "No, I would like to ask, what does the big leader want to do next?"
Wanyan Agu laughed loudly and said: "Aren't we discussing this with you? My idea is of course to send troops to capture Funiu Mountain immediately and raid their lair. When we have Lin Jue's wife and children in hand, look
Isn't he going to surrender obediently? Huh, he actually made a show with me, deliberately attracting my army to surround them and delaying time. Now that we understand his intention, he will no longer have the chance to deceive us."
Li Guoqiu smacked his lips and said: "Does the chief want to send troops and horses to attack Funiu Mountain? But what should we do here? How many soldiers and horses does the chief want to send?"
Wanyan Agu frowned and said: "I haven't thought about this clearly. It is said that Funiu Mountain is steep and has a lot of fortifications. Back then, Lin Jue personally told me that he had more than 30,000 troops and horses.
We defeated hundreds of thousands of imperial troops led by Emperor Guo Xu of the Great Zhou Dynasty. This shows that we cannot take it lightly. So we must mobilize at least 40,000 to 50,000 troops."
Li Guoqiu took a breath and said softly: "Big Chief, don't you have any doubts about the content of this letter?"
Wanyan Agu was stunned and said in a deep voice, "What do you mean by this?"
