Chapter III. Unveiled

Leaving the village, thanks to the blessing of the family just now, there is dry food along the way, so that you will not be hungry, but the national capital is some distance from here, and it can be regarded as a long journey, Chen Ziyou finally arrived at the national capital of Zhongshan - Shou.

Although there was some hard work on the road, Chen Ziyou thought it was worth it, and he took this opportunity to get a glimpse of the situation of the mountains and rivers in Zhongshan, which made Chen Ziyou have a headache because most of the terrain in Zhongshan was plain terrain and there was no dangerous terrain, and it seemed that the idea of relying on the terrain to meet the Qin army was difficult to realize.

The number of defenders at the city gate should have increased, and it seems that the national capital is also extremely nervous, presumably to prevent the Qin army from entering the city.

The first thing to do after entering the city, of course, is not to immediately uncover the recruitment list, now there is too little information in Chen Ziyou's hands, rashly uncover the recruitment list, when Zhongshan Bo asks about the strategy, in case he is speechless, or if the strategy is wrong, he will inevitably die, Chen Ziyou does not want to be buried here not long after he just woke up.

And for more information, it is a good choice to go in and out of restaurants, teahouses and other places.

Yangchun Building, the most famous restaurant in the capital of Zhongshan, of course, consumption is not cheap.

Chen Ziyou, who was penniless, would have had an extremely difficult time entering this restaurant, but fortunately, today is the monthly practice of Yangchun Building, and he commented on the story. At this time of the month, Yangchunlou will invite several well-known hermits in the national capital to give storytelling and commentary on the top floor of the restaurant, the main content of which is not only the classic battle examples in history and modern times, but also from time to time to evaluate some of the world's most famous civil and military generals.

"To say that Liu Wei, the general sent by the Qin State this time, although he is leading the army for the first time, after all, he has followed the killing god for many years, and he has been exposed to it, and the military strategy must be extremely high. A white-robed middle-aged man sitting on a high platform, waved the feather fan in his hand, sighed, and began to mention this imminent war between his words.

"What Brother Wang said is that in addition, the terrain in Zhongshan Country is flat, there is no danger to defend, and I heard that the soldiers brought this time are all cavalry formed and trained by Bai Lang, who has experienced a hundred battles, once they reach the plain, the soldiers are pointing out, with the strength of Zhongshan Kingdom, I am afraid it is not a united enemy." The other sat on a high platform, and the middle-aged man in the green robe echoed.

An audience member in the audience asked loudly: "According to what the two gentlemen said, isn't there no chance for our country to win this battle?" ”

The middle-aged man surnamed Wang smiled bitterly: "In recent days, I have been thinking hard, but my wisdom is short-sighted, and I really haven't thought of a way to deal with it. Or maybe the doctors in the palace already have a way to deal with it, and the wisdom of us country horsemen really can't think of more ways. ”

A few more viewers scolded loudly: "If those dignitaries and nobles in the palace have a way, how can the lord of the country post recruitment lists everywhere!" ”

The audience in the audience talked a lot for a while, and some people scolded the doctors in the palace with a face, saying that they were just a group of useless pigs, eating the taxes paid by the people, but there was no way to do it when the war was imminent.

Chen Ziyou also nodded after listening to the discussion of the hermits above, their analysis is roughly the same as Chen Ziyou, the Zhongshan Kingdom, which has no danger to defend, will definitely be defeated when it encounters the elite cavalry of the Qin State on the plain, even if it relies on the deep city for defense, it is not a long-term plan, and the Qin State will not withdraw easily if it is determined to win this time.

If you want to win this battle, you can only win by surprise, but how can the plot be so easy to come up with, otherwise those doctors in the palace will not be at a loss, and Uncle Zhongshan will not post a recruitment list.

Chen Ziyou stroked his forehead, walked to the recruitment list at the door of the restaurant, and unveiled the recruitment list in front of his eyes.

The noisy restaurant suddenly fell silent.

A purple-robed middle-aged man on the high platform stood up and asked loudly, "Where did you come from, boy, do you know what you took off?!" ”

It's really a nonsense, Chen Ziyou scolded from the bottom of his heart, the words of this era are not much different from the words of the ancient civilization period, and he can recognize the three big characters on the recruitment list clearly.

"If you have a way, you can naturally give this opportunity to you, don't you have a way, don't you have a way, don't you allow others to uncover this list?" Chen Ziyou asked with a sneer.

"What an arrogant boy, the public on the high platform is famous, but they are all at a loss, I see that you are dressed like a country farmer, and you dare to speak out here!" The face of the young man in the purple robe is gloomy.

At this time, Chen Ziyou was wearing an ordinary gray shirt that he had begged from the previous family, and coupled with the long journey, he really looked like a farmer who was farming.

"What strange words! Since the length of a person's wisdom is determined by the way they dress, then those strategists who give advice and marshals who command the three armies are useless people, because according to your logic, the wisest should be those merchants who are rich and rival countries, and those who are above ten thousand kings! Chen Ziyou retorted sharply.

The purple-robed young man was speechless for a while, his face turned red, and he was speechless.

The middle-aged man surnamed Wang listened to Chen Ziyou's sharp rebuttal, but his eyes flashed, and in order to break the deadlock, he hurriedly snorted and said: "Little brother doesn't have to be aggressive, Brother Li must also be concerned about the country. Since you have a strategy, why not talk about it in the lower cold house? ”

After saying that, the middle-aged man surnamed Wang stepped off the high platform, walked in front of Chen Ziyou, and made a long gesture.

Chen Ziyou also said without hesitation: "In this case, there are still some questions in my heart, and I hope that Mr. can answer them for the kid." ”

The audience in the restaurant sighed in their hearts, they were still going to hear what this gray-robed young man would think, and they must not be able to hear this situation.

.......

The middle-aged name surnamed Wang is Wang Ye, the purple-robed middle-aged man who was competing with Chen Ziyou before is named Li Li, and the other middle-aged man in Tsing Yi who was talking on the high platform before is named Sun Ju, at this moment, Chen Ziyou is gathering with these three people at Wang Ye's house.

"Childe, I just listened to what you said, it seems that there are some questions to be solved, you might as well say that you can listen to it, everyone here is a well-known hermit, or you can answer for Childe, by the way, I have not asked Childe's surname, where is it." Wang also smiled at Chen Ziyou and said.

Chen Ziyou also smiled, and then asked: "Under the surname Chen, the word Ziyou, a single name is a distant word, is a person from the Yanqi area, because of the change of the country, recently passing by here, I heard that Qin and Zhongshan will have a battle, saw the recruitment list paid well, in order to earn some days in the future, he removed this list." There are three questions below, one is about the strength reserves of the Zhongshan Army and the situation of the troops. Second, ask how long the grain and grass reserves in the city can last. Three questions about the combat habits of the generals of the Qin army and their personalities. ”

"Sure enough, I was right, and the three questions of the son went straight to the point. Zhongshan Army..."Wang Ye was already impressed by Chen Ziyou at this moment, and was about to answer, but was cut off by Li Li on the side.

"Brother Wang, don't be careless, this kid may not be the work of the Qin army, and he is here to spy on my country!"

Chen Ziyou sneered and did not give any explanation.

Wang Ye shook his head and said with a smile: "It's okay, even if Gongzi Chen is a meticulous work of the Qin army, knowing these three points is just icing on the cake, and it is okay to the overall situation, not to mention that I look at Gongzi Chen's face, it is not like a meticulous work, with the strength of the Qin army, there is no need to send a meticulous work to spy on the military situation, it is just a big move." ”

He continued: "Don't hide what Gongzi said, a few years ago, since the Qin State held Zhou Tianzi hostage, the attacks between the countries have continued, and the Zhongshan State, which had no threat of a strong enemy, has also rebuilt its war readiness, plus the conscription a few days ago, the current military strength in the national capital is about 20,000 people, if you want to add the defenders from all over the country, there are only 30,000 people who have died, and 10,000 of them are new soldiers, even the rest of the veterans, most of them have not experienced the battlefield. As for the types of troops, because Zhongshan Bo has never had the heart of external expansion, and Zhongshan is just a small country, most of the soldiers are archers, and they are only used for city garrison, and the only cavalry is only 3,000 personal cavalry around the lord. Childe's second question is not easy for me to answer, after all, how much grain is stored is really a military secret, and we ordinary people are easily unknown, but according to my estimates, in recent years, the wind and rain have been smooth, and the grain in the capital can last at least a year. Gongzi's third question is the leading general, to be honest, the general Liu Wei, who led the troops this time, was once the deputy general of Bai Lang, the general of the Qin State, Wu Anjun, who has followed Bai Lang for many years, and has been in battle for a long time. Therefore, it is said that Bai Lang personally recommended Liu Wei as the main general of our country in this campaign! ”

Chen Ziyou nodded and asked with some curiosity: "Listening to what Mr. said, it seems that he has great respect for this Wu'an Jun Bai Lang." But I don't know what he is capable of? “

Li Li on the side sneered: "Huangkou Xiaoer, even Wu Anjun Bai Lang didn't know, the first general of the Qin State is also the first general of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Bai Lang, born from the Qin army thirteen years ago, both civil and military, so that a bright silver gun, at the beginning of the military and won the weight of the King of Qin, the battle of Qin and Jin Dynasty Yashan, once stalemate for two years, Bai Lang offered a strange plan to the King of Qin, and bypassed the pass with strange soldiers to force the Jin capital Liang, Jin had no choice but to defend, and the frontal troops of the Qin army broke the Jin army in Yushan, After this battle, the Jin Dynasty, which had been the dominant states, was divided into three, and the hegemony of the Qin State was also consolidated. After the Qin king worshiped Bai Lang as a general, commanding the three armies, and then separated from the Jin Zhao inherited most of the strength of the original Jin state, in 380 regrouped and the Qin army to fight in Changping, Bai Lang with weak troops, with a strong military command ability to break the Zhao army, after which Zhao collapsed, until in recent years to recover some vitality. With Bai Lang's help, Qin never suffered defeat in its foreign wars, and in 385, the Qin prince gave Bai Lang the title of Wu'an. In the past ten years, Bai Lang's soldiers have been invincible. All countries have tacitly accepted that Bai Lang is the number one general in the world! ”

Li Li's eyes lit up when he mentioned Bai Lang's deeds.

"Could it be that the plan of coercing the Son of Heaven to order the princes was proposed by Bai Lang?"

"It's not, it is said that it was proposed by a strategist under the King of Qin, who this person is, and there is no answer among the countries so far, it is quite mysterious, and the King of Qin does not seem to want outsiders to know. Such a poisonous plan, Bai Lang did not bother to put forward it when he thought about it. Wang also answered Chen Ziyou's question.

At this moment, the door outside the house was violently pushed open, dozens of officers and soldiers rushed in, and the leader asked loudly: "Which one has unveiled the list, follow me into the palace!" ”
