Chapter Twenty-Seven: What a Big Game of Chess
The dim lighting, the one-foot-square iron windows, the dirty floor, and the straw-assisted bed are just the scenes that Mr. Chen sees when he wakes up.
"Is this a prison?" He was a little dazed, shouldn't he be in the underworld? Turning his head to look, he saw a man standing in front of the window with his back to him, standing with his hands in his hands, and a slight smile on the corner of his mouth.
Liu Yu's mood is actually not so good, the recent qiē made him feel tired, and he ran non-stop between various towns, as if he had returned to the old era of doing sales and running business everywhere.
"Awake?" Hearing a movement next to him, Liu Yu turned around, and the person he caught was pale due to blood loss, and his consciousness didn't seem to be very clear, and a pair of small eyes were rolling around.
"You, you, aren't you" Looking at the face of the man in front of him, Mr. Chen suddenly remembered that it was this person, who led the troops to surround the commander and his party, and ordered a sergeant to kill himself.
"I still know so-and-so, that's good, I've slept for a long time, I must be hungry, but I want to ask for some food with you?" It's okay, not scared of amnesia.
"Who are you, why did you arrest so-and-so here, and what did you do to him?" Mr. Chen's voice began to tremble a little, but after a while, he slowly calmed down, and if he didn't kill himself, it was useful.
"You're a smart man, might as well guess who you are?" Liu Yu paced around the room.
Hearing his words, Mr. Chen lowered his head, his eyes showed a thoughtful look, and he came with the guards and pro-army, intercepting and killing all the way to the division, intercepting and killing, intercepting and killing, Mr. Chen's expression moved, and he suddenly raised his head.
"You are not a subordinate of Jianghuai's envoy, you were sent by Chen Xianggong, you want to kill your mouth, why, so-and-so and Xianggong are fellow villagers and clansmen, you can't kill so-and-so."
"If it weren't for that, how would you have survived until now, fellow clansmen, and put less gold on your face, and entered the five suits?" Hearing the unfamiliar name, Liu Yu searched in his mind while saying without moving, this must be a historical celebrity, Chen Xianggong, who is it?
"What about the commander, is he dead, he has already acted according to orders, why don't you let him go?" Mr. Chen's voice was crying, and his expression was so sad that he couldn't help himself.
"How much did you talk to those three about this?" Liu Yu sighed secretly, he really couldn't understand the friendship in ancient times.
"Which three people, oh, you said that the three of them, the letter is not in your hands, they only know what the commander wants them to do, and they don't know anything else." Mr. Chen reached out and took it into his arms, only to find that the Chinese book was gone.
The three people in Liu Yu's mouth are the three commanders of the Jiankang Mansion Soldiers and Horses, the leader is called Xu Wangrong, the second Mao Shixiong, and the third Weng Fu, and it is these three people who dedicated Jiankang City to the Yuan army in history.
"The three of them don't know, what about the others?" Liu Yu's tone was not hurried or slow, as if chatting with a friend.
"Someone else? The letters with Zhenjiang and Changzhou have already been sent, but the other party has not received them, and whether they have done it or not is not known to Chen. Mr. Chen sighed and gave his fate a look of resignation.
Zhizhenjiang Mansion Hong Qiwei is also a strange thing in history, he is not the only one who abandoned the city and left, this is nothing, what is interesting is that this person wrote a list of articles before running away, the full text is as follows: "Home in Lin'an, duty in Jingkou." If the north rider comes, there is death and will not leave. ”
He also posted these words everywhere to make everyone known, and just when everyone thought that he would die with the city, this guy abandoned the city and ran away, leaving a laughing stock for the ages. Now it seems that according to the meaning of Mr. Chen's words, someone wants him to do this, and this person should be that Chen Xianggong.
Knowing that Zhao and Jian in Changzhou are clansmen, Liu Yu didn't expect that he would also be involved, his hometown, the tragic fate written in the history books, will he experience it again?
"That's all, nothing?" After a long while, Liu Yu's voice sounded again.
"What's more, isn't Commander Sun contacted by yourself?" Mr. Chen was stunned, not knowing what else the other party wanted to know.
Liu Yu's heart moved, Commander Sun, it was a new name, he felt that he had some thoughts, but he couldn't grasp it, the whole thing seemed to be about to come out, as long as the names of these two people were unraveled.
"You stay here for the time being, and you have to check it, and if it's true, then take care of it." Afraid of arousing suspicion, Liu Yu didn't ask any more, and raised his feet and wanted to go out.
"Where is the commander, did you really kill him?" Mr. Chen's unwilling voice sounded behind him.
"He's naturally where he should be, and he shouldn't be in your business, don't talk too much." Liu Yu threw down a sentence and hurriedly walked out. Things were beyond his imagination, and he needed to talk to someone.
In the wing room next to the Yamen Public Hall of the Department of Manufacturing, Wang Lixin, dressed in regular clothes, was sitting upright, and a middle-aged official in green clothes stood below, holding a booklet in his hand, and his mouth kept talking.
"There are still more than 220,000 feather arrows in the library, more than 50,000 long crossbow arrows without feathers, more than 130,000 short crossbows, more than 23,000 double-bow and long crossbow arrows, 7,200 crossbow arrows with three bows and eight oxen, 11,500 collars of new paper armor, more than 8,000 collars still exist within three years of the old system, more than 5,000 collars of the old light leather armor, and 1,247 collars of the infantry armor made in the seventh year of Xianchun are still intact."
Listening to the sound coming from the house, Liu Yu walked in and saw that Jin Ming, who was dressed in military uniform and wearing armor, was waiting in front of the door, and when he came in, Jin Ming greeted him with his eyes.
"Who's in there, and how long have you been waiting?" Liu Yu took a few steps closer and asked in a low voice.
"Young Eunuch Ye of the Ordnance Supervisor, I've been waiting for half an hour, what's wrong with you, is that a move?" When Jin Ming moves slightly, the metal friction sound will occur on the armor piece pierced by the cowhide rope, which reminds Liu Yu of the blockbuster "Iron Man"
"It's hard to say, it's all pickled things, so I won't tell you, so as not to be angry, are those people under you still useful?" Liu Yu knew that Jin Ming had been rectifying the rout of the army these days, and it was difficult to see each other.
"Those birdmen, a certain put a few leaders on the top of the gate, dozens of military sticks down, they are all honest, after a while, promote a few more obedient ones, and they will be available." Jin Ming's voice still had some hatred, as if he had killed too little.
"What is the help of this person, and I don't know how many new pawns Yuan Tongju has recruited?" Liu Yu doesn't like the old oilmen who have been in the army for a long time, and he can recruit people again, at least he won't have those bad habits.
"Without a few months of practice, those new soldiers will not be in a row, they will not be heard, and before they see the battle, they will break and flee, and they will not be used." Jin Ming shook his head repeatedly.
Liu Yu didn't distinguish with him, his main goal was the big war that was about to take place, and the spies sent had already penetrated deep into Tongling, and they could grasp the progress of the war in real time through the guò walkie-talkie.
I don't know how long I have to wait, Liu Yu took out a cigarette and handed it to Jin Ming, for this thing that can swallow clouds and spit out fog, Jin Ming and the sergeants accepted it quickly, it seems that this bad habit, no matter when it comes, is the easiest to spread.
"So-and-so don't wait.,Come back later.,Put this thing with so-and-so.,It's weird.,Since I sucked this.,It's empty.,I still think about it a little." After smoking a cigarette, Jin Ming became a little impatient.
Liu Yu didn't say much, and directly threw the whole bag and matches to him, and a new smoking gun of the old era was born.
Not long after Jin Ming left, the person in the house said goodbye, Liu Yu didn't know anyone, so he could only bow his hand, even if he had said hello.
"Ziqing is here, sit by himself, but he is old at the bottom, and his spirit is so poor." Seeing Liu Yu come in, Wang Lixin rubbed his temples and waved his hand at him.
"Don't work too hard to solicit, the overall situation in the southeast is still necessary" Seeing the old man's appearance, Liu Yu still couldn't help it.
"Ziqing should know the current situation, and there is no need to mention polite words, what does that person say?" Wang Lixin knew what he was going to say next, and the exit was interrupted.
Seeing this, Liu Yu no longer insisted, took out a letter, and told in detail what was said from Mr. Chen's mouth. Wang Lixin listened quietly, opened the letter and looked at it, holding his gray beard and muttering.
"Now the key person is that Chen Xianggong, and Sun Commander, forgive the foolishness of his subordinates, I don't know these two people, do you know about the solicitation?" Liu Yu hopes to get an answer from Wang Lixin's mouth.
"Come, go to the study and get the map." Wang Lixin shouted outside the door, and a sergeant left in response, and after a while, he took in the map that Liu Yu had sent that day.
Liu Yu stepped forward to help unfold the map, Wang Lixin put on reading glasses and looked closely, Liu Yu followed his eyes and looked, it turned out to be Ding Jiazhou.
"Shameless, shameless. Ahem, ahem! Just when Liu Yu was puzzled, he heard Wang Lixin open his mouth and scold. Immediately, he fell on the table and coughed loudly. A mouthful of liquid flew out and splashed on the map, blood-red.
"Recruit, recruit, what's wrong with you? Go and call the doctor. Liu Yu was taken aback, and hurriedly stretched out his hand to support the old man, while calling the sergeant to pass on the person.
"It's okay, the old man is okay, hurry up and find a handkerchief, don't defile the map." Wang Lixin struggled to push him away, and was about to wipe the map with the hem of his clothes.
Liu Yu hurriedly took out the tissue in his sleeve, the map he brought was pressed with a layer of film, and it didn't matter if it was stained with a little water. Seeing that the map was wiped clean, Wang Lixin breathed a sigh of relief, not caring that there were still blood stains on the corners of his mouth.
"Don't be angry, if you know what they're up to, you won't let you succeed, so why hurt your body like this." Liu Yu didn't know what stimulated the old man, but things were definitely not simple.
"Ziqing, it's too late, Da Song is going to die, he can't be saved, he can't be saved." Wang Lixin sat slumped in his chair, seemingly losing all his strength. muttered to himself, and old tears were on his face.
"Who is Chen Xianggong and what does he want to do?" Liu Yu's heart is on fire, and now he can't wait to return to modern times to buy a gun, and he crashed this guy with one shot.
"You don't know him, do you know Chen Yizhong, the Privy Council, have you heard of it?" Wang Lixin's voice was very soft, if it weren't for Liu Yu getting close, he wouldn't know what he was talking about.
"It turned out to be him, that Sun commanded" Liu Yu suddenly thought of the map that Wang Lixin began to see, Ding Jiazhou, a name appeared in his mind, and his eyes widened in disbelief.
"It's him." Wang Lixin saw his expression and knew that Liu Yu had also guessed, so he nodded.
"But why do they do this, and what good is it for them." Historically, after the Battle of Dingjiazhou, the three commanders of the Song army, Sun Huchen, the commander of the former army that was about to collapse, was fine, and later followed Zhang Shijie to participate in the Battle of Jiaoshan.
The only one who was unlucky in this matter was the commander of the whole army, the Metropolitan Governor, Taishi, and Jia Nidao, who was responsible for the military affairs of Pingzhang, and Chen Yizhong and Sun Huchen were both attached to Jia Nidao, and for a moment, Liu Yu felt that his brain was a little insufficient.
"Why, in order to bring down Naja. Chen Youquan was not in place, and he also wanted to make peace about the important affairs of the military state. "Chen and Quan are Chen Yizhong, and Quan is his word.
"But that's the 130,000 army, the last elite of my Great Song Dynasty, if they lose these, how can they resist the invading Yuan army?" Modern otaku Liu Yu doesn't understand, just for this, he wants to cut off his own barrier? At that time, Qin Hui only dared to kill Marshal Yue, and did not move the Yue family's army.
"Not only 130,000 troops, but they also added the entire Jiangnan East Road and Changzhou City of Zhenjiang Prefecture. As a consequence, Jia Rudao will have great achievements, and he can only be dismissed from office. As for those yuan people, what do they have to do with them, it's a big deal, it's lowered. ”
Liu Yu sat down in his chair speechlessly, he didn't know if what he was doing now made sense. The group of people in high positions in the court actually thought that the country was not going to perish fast enough.
"Ziqing, Jiankang City has become a dead place, do you still want to guard it?" Wang Lixin's voice drifted into Liu Yu's mind, making him suddenly sober up, and he didn't come for them.
"Recruit, you take people across the river, Huaixi soldiers, recruit as much as you can, Liu is not talented, just meet the old man of Boyan under this Jiankang City for a while, and see what the Yuan army can do."
History has returned to the original point, Wang Lixin is too old and in poor health, for the upcoming war, Liu Yu doesn't want him to bother anymore, the old man has no more months to live.
