Chapter 5: Convincing Hou Junji
"What did you say?"
Hou Junji's eyes widened instantly, he thought that Li Yan would say that Fengzhou was a heavy land, or that he would not say anything, but Hou Junji never thought that Li Yan would say that Fengzhou was in danger.
You know, now that winter is approaching, almost no ruler since ancient times would choose to go to war in winter.
In this day and age, not only is it difficult for soldiers to protect themselves from the cold in winter, but the transportation of grain and grass can also be a big problem.
According to Hou Junji's thinking, even if the Turks continue to attack Fengzhou now, it is only to plunder resources to prepare for the winter, and they will never start a war in winter.
"You'd better give me a reasonable explanation, or you'll be in the heart of the cholera army!"
Hou Junji's eyes gradually became awe-inspiring, he would rather Li Yan not say a word, than see him talk nonsense in order to attract his attention.
In the face of Hou Junji's questioning, Li Yan was prepared, and he was sure to persuade Hou Junji to follow his advice.
"Have you ever thought about what will happen to the Turks if there is a snowstorm in the steppe and livestock die on a large scale?"
Li Yan threw out a question, he wanted Hou Junji to think about what would happen if the grassland was snowy and Turkic was short of food.
"Grassland snow disaster? Livestock death? Do you mean there will be natural disasters in the grasslands this winter? When the time comes, it will be difficult for the Turks to survive, and they will jump over the wall and forcibly attack our Tang City and plunder the grain? ”
Hou Junji is worthy of a generation of famous generals, and he thoroughly considered the problem in just over ten seconds.
Hou Junji's heart trembled suddenly, if the Turks really jumped over the wall in a hurry, without the slightest preparation in the Tang Dynasty, maybe there would really be many cities on the border that would be breached.
And according to the geographical location, Fengzhou must bear the brunt!
"How can you be sure that there will be heavy snow in the grasslands this year? Do you still have no prophets? ”
Hou Junji didn't fully believe Li Yan yet, and he continued to ask with some doubts.
"General Hui, I met a soldier when I was a child, and learned the method of observing celestial phenomena for a few days, I found that there are many heavy rains in the summer of the grassland this year, and the weather has cooled much faster than in previous years in recent days, according to the method of celestial observation, there will be heavy snow on the grassland this year, and it is a snow disaster!"
Li Yan's words are categorical and decisive, with a convincing momentum between his words.
"Celestial ......"
Hou Junji's brows furrowed, he felt that Li Yan's words had some truth, but he didn't know anything about celestial observations, so he didn't dare to confirm the truth of what Li Yan said.
"Ben will know, you go back first, today's inspection will be carried out normally, and you will lead the team."
Hou Junji had completely forgotten Li Yan's idea of taking the school exam, but was completely immersed in Li Yan's elaboration just now.
"Yes."
Seeing that Hou Junji's expression became more and more serious, Li Yan also knew that now was not the time to disturb, his words were almost done, as long as Hou Junji was not stupid, he would definitely take precautions.
It's just that whether Hou Junji will choose to report the court's speculation about the heavy snow in the end depends on fate, after all, if there is no snow disaster this year, and Datang has spent manpower and material resources to prevent it, then the reporter is very likely to take the blame.
In this way, Li Yan left the schoolyard, leaving Hou Junji alone to stand on the schoolyard and think about countermeasures.
"General, what's wrong with you?"
Adjutant Zhang Cheng saw Hou Junji motionless for a long time not far away, and immediately came over to inquire.
Hou Junji didn't seem to hear Zhang Cheng's words, and still stood in place and thought.
Zhang Cheng is also very aware of the habits of his own commander, he is obviously thinking about extremely important matters, and Zhang Cheng is not good to continue to bother.
A few minutes later, Hou Junji's gaze refocused, as if he had made up his mind, and strode towards his general camp.
"Follow me back to the camp, I want to repair a book and hand it to Your Majesty, so that people can prepare a fast horse, three horses at the same time, and it must be sent to Chang'an within two days!"
Hou Junji couldn't sit still, although he didn't want to take the blame, but he couldn't bear the sin of breaking several cities at the border gates!
Once the border pass is broken in the winter of this year, it will be difficult for Datang to send troops to recapture it under severe cold conditions.
Then, if it is spring, the border of the Tang Dynasty will completely fall under the control of the Turks, and then maybe there will be another Weishui Alliance.
……
Li Yan didn't know that Hou Junji was so attentive to his words, and after he left the school grounds, he had lunch with others, then rested, and then led people to conduct a second inspection.
After the accident of the morning inspection, the Turks seemed to be still afraid of the "heavy infantry" of the Tang army, they did not know that Li Yan was just an example, and now they were still a little worried, and were preparing to send someone to investigate carefully.
Therefore, the remaining two rounds of exploration today passed peacefully, and Li Yan and the others did not encounter another attack by the Turks.
After returning to Fengzhou in the evening, Li Yan plunged into "Minecraft" again and began his mining career.
According to Li Yan's estimate, it will take about three days at most before he can scrape together enough stones to make a monster farming tower.
As long as the "Minecraft" monster farming mechanism remains unchanged, Li Yan can gain unlimited experience through the monster farming tower, and he will not have to worry about experience when he extracts products from "Minecraft" in the future.
Li Yan only had half a night in the end, he finally lost to mental exhaustion, and had to choose to rest in the second half of the night, this sleep Li Yan slept very sweetly, he felt that he had never slept so comfortably in his two lives combined.
All in all, after so many days of struggle after crossing over, Li Yan finally obtained the following materials:
Two sets of cobblestone, two iron sets (extracted to reality), two iron ingots, and wooden pickaxes and stone pickaxes are not counted......
And Li Yan's current experience bar is 24/1000, and there are relatively few monsters encountered in the mine in this half night, only encountering a zombie and a skeleton, that is, Xiaobai, who is often said, these two monsters have exploded with 10 points of experience.
In other words, before the monster farm tower was established, experience became the most difficult resource for Li Yan to obtain.
When he woke up, the sky was just dawning, Li Yan's spirit was extremely clear, and his body recovery power strengthened by using the "Minecraft" experience seemed to be very strong.
"Zhang Dazhu, bring someone to the school! Training! ”
Li Yan woke up Zhang Dazhu with a roar, and now Zhang Dazhu is used to this kind of life.
Since Li Yan's crossing, the training of Zhang Dazhu and others has changed from the normal daily practice of the Tang Army to a daily practice of the devil every day......
"Ang...... Boss, do you want to call the other four members of Team E? They're now in your hands, too. ”
Although Zhang Dazhu forced himself to wake up, he still asked in a bit of confusion.
"Nonsense! Am I like that kind of person who is treated differently? Half incense time, I'm going to see all of you in the school yard! ”
Li Yan decisively gave the order.
