Chapter 556: Back Hand

Zhou Yuan provided this information, not to be high and far from paying attention to it, although the Donghu iron cavalry is unparalleled in the world, but they have a fatal weakness, although the mineral deposits are rich, but they lack the technology of smelting steel, combat weapons are mainly scimitars, bows and arrows, compared to the Central Plains countries of a variety of weapons, different functions, it is simply not worth mentioning, for many years, the Central Plains countries have treated these Yi tribes are also reported to be not within our race, their hearts must be different, these technologies have been blocked by Donghu, and once the Qi country and Donghu join forces, Through the state of Qi, the Donghu people will be able to obtain these technologies that they have always dreamed of, so as to achieve a qualitative leap in the munitions industry. Thinking of Donghu's purchase of a large number of farm tools, Gao Yuan seemed to see a brand-new Donghu slowly rising in front of him.

The craftsmen of the Qi State can improve the technical level of the Donghu people, and the appearance of the soldiers of the Qi State in Donghu is even more worthy of vigilance. In the army system of Donghu, the foot soldiers are more responsible for the task of logistics, and are rarely sent to the frontal battlefield to fight, and like the Central Plains countries, because the cavalry is not easy to form, more is to develop the mode of infantry and cavalry coordinated operations, Qi soldiers appear in Donghu, there will be nothing else, it must be to assist the Donghu people to train their foot soldiers, once the foot soldiers of Donghu have also formed a strong combat effectiveness, the military strength of Donghu will inevitably go to a new level.

"Qi Guo?" Gao Yuan snorted, his heart was already furious, Qi Guo interfered with Donghu, this was simply smashing his own head with a big stick.

"In the era of Ye Tiannan, relying on the support of Qi State, he returned to Yan State with Ji Ling and ascended the throne of Yan King, Qi Guotian Shan Man thought that he could get great benefits from Yan State, who knew that after Ye Tiannan took the throne, he immediately turned his face with Qi State, not only did he lose his previous promises, but later he almost went to war with Qi State. Qi Guo wants to marry the princess and become Queen Yan, but Qi Guoyan can not be angry? This time, the Yan State coincided with a great change, wouldn't the Qi State take the opportunity to take advantage of the fire to rob and help Donghu to become strong, so that they could contain the living forces of the Yan State, and then they could send troops to the north and bite the Yan State fiercely? Zhou Yuan said slowly: "Maybe now that the Qi State is deploying troops, Zhou Yutanfeng will lose his troops and lose his city if he doesn't deal with it well." ”

The Qi State may take advantage of the fact that the Yan State is now weak to launch a war. Seizing part of the land of Yan State, but this is not within the scope of Gao Yuan's consideration, that is something that the Yan State court should consider, and what he needs to face is the threat of Donghu's reality.

"They're on the waterway!" Gao Yuan suddenly burst out.

"Waterways, of course." Zhou Yuan said: "From the land to Donghu, how can it be possible to pass through our Yan country?" If you take the waterway from Qi to Liaodong, if you have a good wind, it will only take more than ten days to make a trip. ”

"The aid of the Qi people to Donghu will not end in a short time, and the Donghu people receive assistance from the Qi state. Perhaps it also paid a lot of price, if Yan sent troops to intercept it at sea, it could cut off the collusion between them. Gao Yuan looked at Zhou Yuan and said.

"Easier said than done. But it's harder to do! Zhou Yuan shook his head and said: "Our Dayan has always regarded Donghu as the biggest enemy, and militarily we also regard Donghu as the main opponent, there is no water division at all, and the Qi country." But there is a powerful naval army, and among all countries, only the state of Chu can compare with it. ”

Gao Yuan bared his teeth and smiled. In this era, the so-called sailors, that is, the ships with soldiers, engaged each other, are still limited to the most primitive chord battles, the two boats are together, and then the soldiers jump on each other's boats to fight, until one side is cut down, but it is a pity that there is no outlet to the sea at all, otherwise it is possible to create a real sailor. Thinking of this, my heart couldn't help but move.

There are some things that might have been done earlier.

"Taiwei's hometown is in Fenzhou, after returning to China this time, will he continue to live in Jicheng, or are he going to go back to his hometown?" Gao Yuan asked with a smile.

Zhou Yuan smiled to himself, "If it's possible, I naturally want to go back to Fenzhou, can't I still stay in Jicheng and let people see jokes?" But you have to go back alive, right? Didn't you just say that someone doesn't want me to go back? ”

"Of course, if you go back alive, it will definitely be extremely difficult for some people, but in the territory of Liaoxi, I can guarantee the safety of the Taiwei, of course, out of Liaoxi, I can't do anything." High and far-reaching.

"Out of Liaoxi, they won't do it." Zhou Yuan pondered for a moment, "Perhaps, I can be a little smarter." ”

"Taiwei is really a smart person, he made his attitude known earlier, or he can live the rest of his life in peace." Gao Yuan clasped his palms together and laughed. "If Taiwei can really return to Fenzhou safely to retire, we may still deal with each other sometime in the future."

"Gao Yuan, you take this for granted, even if I return to Fenzhou, I will not support you, let alone help you." Zhou Yuan shook his head and said.

"What I'm talking about has nothing to do with politics, maybe it's just some simple business matters." Gao Yuan said with a smile.

"Business?" Zhou Yuan was a little inexplicable, looking at Gao Yuan for a long time, he suddenly remembered the geographical location of Fenzhou, Huo Di stood up, "Qi State Water Master? ”

Gao Yuan smiled and nodded, Zhou Yuan was worthy of an old fox, he had just started a head, and he immediately understood the meaning. Fenzhou is near the sea, and people by the sea naturally have to rely on the sea to make a living, and boats are indispensable.

"Let's talk about it then, I don't think Taiwei will reject this matter, after all, this is also a very beneficial thing for Dayan. Qi Guo wants to bite Yan people, maybe, I can help Yan Guo bite them back. "High and far-reaching.

"What's in it for you?" Zhou Yuan stared at Gao Yuan and asked.

"Captain, are you confused? Qi State helps Donghu, naturally it is my enemy, and if you fight the Qi State Sailor, you can weaken Donghu and get more help from Qi State, which is a matter of mutual benefit to Yan State and me, Taiwei doesn't have to think too much. Gao Yuan stood up with a smile, "Taiwei might as well think about it, don't be in a hurry to reply, and wait until you can return to Fenzhou." ”

Zhou Yuan nodded silently, stood up, and arched his hand: "So I will leave." ”

"Taiwei, rest early, regarding your security in western Liaoning, tomorrow Cao Tianci will report to you about our overall plan, I hope you can support it." Gao Yuan smiled and gave his hand to the guest.

Not long after Zhou Yuan left, Meng Chong quietly appeared in front of Gao Yuan.

"How?"

"Governor, the last general sent someone to contact those soldiers, as expected by the governor, these people are not willing to go back in shame, they want to stay, and they want the governor to give them a chance."

"How many people?"

"I came into contact with several lieutenant officers, and according to them, no less than five hundred." Meng Chong said.

"So many people?" Gao Yuan was a little surprised, "There are too many people, but it's a little difficult to do." ”

"What's so hard to do, Governor!" Meng Chong said with a smile: "All of them report a violent illness and death, even if they know that there are ghosts in it?" Do you dare to compete with us? Aren't you afraid of annoying us, and five thousand people will be detained together? What's more, they have to think about it for the future? Five hundred, a tenth, and they will not fight us for the sake of the tenth. ”

Gao Yuan smiled and nodded: "You're right, but I was a little too careful, and you brought the leading ones?" ”

"Brought it, they're all waiting outside the house!"

"Call them in!" Gao Yuan said: "As long as they have the intention to kill the enemy, I will not hesitate to give them this opportunity." ”

Meng Chong retreated, and a moment later, he walked in with three Yan Army officers dressed in lieutenant uniforms. As soon as the three of them entered the house, they didn't say a word, but when they knelt down, they said loudly: "Please give the villain a chance to kill the enemy." ”

Gao Yuan glanced at them, and among them was the rather burly man he saw during the day, looking at the body, he would never lose to the tiger head after a few months.

"You can think clearly, it's not impossible to stay, but in a short time, you can't go home, and your family will even get the news that you have died, and when you can go back, it may be uncertain." Gao Yuan said lightly.

"General, the villain has thought clearly, instead of going back in such a shameful way to make people laugh, it is better to die, die outside, the family can still hold their heads up, go back like this, the family is afraid that they won't even be able to raise their heads. The villain is willing to stay in Liaoxi to fight with the Donghu people, and if the Donghu people are not destroyed, the villain vows not to return home! ”

"The villain too!"

"The villain too!"

The other two big men also raised their heads and said loudly.

Gao Yuan laughed, walked down, and helped the three of them up with his own hands, "Okay, since you have such determination, I will fulfill you and let you stay and kill the enemy." Come, arise, and speak your names first. ”

"Villain Zhu Tong."

"Villain Yang Fugui!"

"Villain Liu Ye Fei!"

Meng Chong said on the side: "Governor, these three people, originally all under the command of General Kumamoto, in the battle of the east, belonged to the vanguard front army, this army suffered heavy losses, like the three of them, they were originally lieutenant colonels and lieutenant officers of the forward army, but the troops they belonged to did not exist in ten, like this time, a large part of them were people in this army." ”

"General Kumamoto is reluctant to repatriate, but is willing to stay in Donghu to share weal and woe with the rest of the soldiers, but he is not a good man, a good officer, and the officers brought out by such a person are really different." Gao Yuan nodded and praised Kumamoto, "I heard that you have contacted more than five hundred people?" ”

"Yes." Zhu Tong nodded and said, "In addition to the three of our old subordinates, there are also some people in the other brother troops who are willing to stay, and there are more than five hundred people in total. ”

"Meng Chong, you go and arrange for me to leave these more than 500 people. Zhu Tong, I won't break up these five hundred people, you will be in charge, and Yang Fugui and Liu Yefei will assist you. I won't tell you that the war between my Eastern Army and Donghu is about to break out, and if you want revenge, you will look at your own appearance, as long as you are willing to fight, some will fight. Gao Yuan raised his voice and said: "Perhaps, in the future, you will return to your hometown one day." ”

"Thank you, General Gao!" The three of them were overjoyed, never expecting such an outcome, which was much better than they expected. (To be continued......)
