Chapter 174: Fighting wits and courage
Speaking of which, this is also thanks to the blockbuster "Pirates of the Caribbean", which aroused Li Zhongyi's great interest, and he looked up a lot of nautical information.
It's a pity that Li Zhongyi only remembers that the principle of the relatively simple Davis quadrant is a little vague because of the time it takes too long.
Davis quadrant cooperated with his boss Nan, Li Zhongyi personally thought that it should be enough. However, because he had not really sailed the sea, his heart was still bottomless after all.
"In the first battle of Goryeo, the time may drag on for a long time, everyone must be mentally prepared." Li Zhongyi touched his chin and said with a smile, "Making wedding clothes for others, losing money, this handsome will not do anything." ”
Yang Lie's eyes rolled slightly, and he suddenly smiled: "Sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight? ”
"Didn't the teacher say before that the Uighur Dolgon just took advantage of the fact that Li Zicheng and Wu Sangui were fighting each other and touched a big fish in troubled waters?" Liao Shanhe culture is slightly lower, but his memory is particularly good.
The story of Li Zhongyi's change, Liao Shanhe went to his heart as soon as he heard it, and he is now learning and selling, which also happens to coincide with the current domestic situation in Goryeo.
With Park Jinjian's rebellion in the east and Fujiwara Shisuke in the south, Lee Chung-yi is indeed very similar to the environment in which Manchu Dolgon is located.
"Well, Goryeo is mountainous, and there are many islands, so when the time comes, you can see clearly with your eyes wide open, and find a good island to settle on." Li Zhongyi made up his mind this time to find a permanent foothold on the seaside of Goryeo.
The army went straight down the Yellow River, very fast, and traveled more than 100 miles a day. On the seventh day, they arrived at Yongli Town, which belongs to Bohai County, which belongs to Binzhou, which is the old crossing of the Yellow River.
Li Zhongyi did not delay much this time, and after resting for three days in Yongli Town, he led the whole army along the northern tip of the Jiaodong Peninsula to Dengzhou (Penglai), and then crossed the Yellow Sea. Arrive at Jiaodao Island at the mouth of the Taedong River on the Korean Peninsula.
After replenishing drinking water at Jiaodao, the army continued southward by boat to Jeongju (present-day Gimpo, South Korea) at the mouth of the Yeesung River near the "Kaigyon" in Kyoto, Goryeo.
During the Three Kingdoms period when Goguryeo, Baekje, and Silla were at their best, the Gimpo-gun area was a battleground for the Three Kingdoms, and Jeongju was the most important of all.
The reason is simple. Jeongju has always been an important economic and trade center between Bangzi and China, and even during the war years in Goryeo, trade was not completely cut off.
Businessmen make profits, as long as they make a lot of money, and risk killing their heads. also secretly do business.
After arriving in Zhenzhou, Xu Fenglai played a small trick, pretending to be the king of Goryeo, prohibiting the captives from entering the city, and could only camp on the outskirts of the city.
Li Zhongyi obviously saw through Xu Fenglai's careful thoughts, but he deliberately pretended to be confused and agreed to Xu Fenglai's request.
The reinforcements of the Great Zhou have arrived, and Xu Fenglai is in a nervous mood. Rode back to Kaijing and reported to the lord Wang Zhao.
The local county order organized the villagers, leading a large group of noodle chiefs, euphem chiefs and cave chiefs. There were also local gentry, who came with cattle and sheep to pay tribute to the army.
Li Zhongyi welcomed these local leaders into the big tent with a smile on his face, and he didn't understand what the face chief and the cave chief were at first.
The Jinpu County Commander politely explained, and Li Zhongyi suddenly realized that the face chief is equivalent to the mayor of Chengguan Town. The dongchang is similar to the street of Daeju, and it is the smallest first-level organization in Goryeo.
Hey. The country of sticks is really good at playing tricks, and the face is long. And the noodles too. The name of the cave chief is even more outrageous, why not call the cave chief?
After a polite greeting, Li Zhongyi knew that the Jinpu County Commander was called Liu Zhiqiu, and he was a side descendant of the Liu family, a famous family in Zhenzhou.
Liu Zhiqiu speaks fluent Tang Heluo official dialect, if it weren't for the wrong shape of the official uniform on his body, and it was a big shortening, it was easy to give people an illusion that this guy was the county order of Da Zhou.
The squires of Goryeo, without exception, all wore black gauze crowns resembling hats, and wore chiguli and a circumferential robe.
The squires' belts were actually tied to their chests, and the red straps hung down to their calves, long enough to hang themselves on a rope. Their wide-leg bucky pants are also too short to say, all in all, these guys have learned the clothes of big men, but they are half-and nondescript!
Liu Zhiqiu was quite generous, and sent twenty cows and one hundred sheep in one go, which were not very surprising, and Li Zhongyi didn't care much.
It's just that this Liu Zhiqiu actually sent three hundred dogs at one time, Li Zhongyi touched his chin, and said in his heart, daring to love is a custom passed down from the ancestors, no wonder the stick people love dog meat like life?
"Li Shuai came from afar to help me put down the rebellion in the Great Goryeo Kingdom, and the lower officials are grateful." Liu Zhiqiu's words were very polite, but in his bones, he did not have the slightest consciousness of recognizing the Great Zhou as the suzerain, and he was a great Goryeo country.
Liu Zhiqiu's status is too low, just a county order, Li Zhongyi is too lazy to see him in general, smiled slightly, and ignored the past.
"I wonder how long your army will be stationed in this city? Is it better to prepare for one or two? Liu Zhiqiu's words were said very tactfully, but the meaning was urging Li Zhongyi to quickly lead the troops and leave.
"Hehe, this needs to be discussed between the important ministers of the two countries." Li Zhongyi snorted and said perfunctorily, "Liu Mingfu can rest assured, wherever I go to break the army, I have always committed no crimes." ”
Li Zhongyi knew in his heart that all the officials and soldiers in this era did not have a good reputation, and even had the notoriety of being inferior to bandits.
Liu Zhiqiu secretly inquired about the news, obviously worried that the Broken Army would disturb the place. Whether it is robbing finances or JY women, Liu Zhiqiu, a local official, has a headache and is very tricky.
A few days after Li Zhongyi came, there were no evil deeds in the army, and Liu Zhiqiu was a lowly official, and there was nothing good to do about it.
When the army arrived on the outskirts of Zhenzhou, they no longer moved the place, and Li Zhongyi closed the camp gate and carried out military training activities on a large scale.
This time, since there were only 10,000 people in the First Army of the Xiang Army in Beijing, Li Zhongyi simply adopted a one-on-one training method to strive to raise the discipline of the Xiang Army to a higher level in a short period of time.
According to the rules of the Great Zhou, the identity of the Xiang Army was originally much lower than that of the Forbidden Army, and the Broken Army was the elite of the elite in the Forbidden Army.
Xiang Jun is the commander of Zhou Daozhong, and he is a person who understands. Whatever Li Zhongyi said, he did it, without any complaints.
Li Zhongyi only focused on training Zhou Daozhong's subordinates, but did not break up the inherent structure of the officers and soldiers, obviously. There is no idea of seizing power at the opportunity.
After the army of the Great Zhou was stationed on the border of Zhenzhou, it did not move for more than half a month.
Wang Yongnan, the general of Goryeo, summoned Li Zhongyi to a meeting, but Li Zhongyi said that he was ill and was dismissed.
Thereupon. The monarchs and ministers of the Goryeo Kingdom were suspicious of dark ghosts, and began to discuss in private, will they lead the wolf into the room?
The coach was not accustomed to the soil and suddenly became ill. It makes sense. However, Fu Zhaoxin's body is very good when the deputy capital deploys it, and he goes out of the camp every day to talk with the squires of the Goryeo Kingdom, talk about Fengyue, and is very busy.
Xu Fenglai, the Guangping squire who attracted the Zhou army, was called by Wang Zhao, the lord of Goryeo, and reprimanded him fiercely, and then sent him to the Zhou army camp. Find out the news.
Xu Fenglai rode to the camp of the Broken Army nervously, and the general who guarded the door was polite and led him directly to see Fu Zhaoxin.
Fu Zhaoxin's account. It was full of Xu Fenglai's old acquaintances, Li Anguo, Gao Gao Xiong and other big gangs.
As soon as Xu Fenglai saw the difficult Li Anguo and Gao Gaoxiong, his scalp was numb, and he hurriedly accompanied the smiling face and made a circle, "The generals have worked hard." The lower officials are grateful for my king. ”
"Xu Shilang, hurry up, it's not just a verbal talk. Since General Ben came to Zhenzhou, he has been in addition to unpalatable dog meat. I've never seen half a leg of mutton, are you deliberately bullying allies or what? Li Anguo mocked Xu Fenglai without yin or yang, and his words were very unpleasant.
After coming to Zhenzhou, because the Goryeo Kingdom only supplied some sheep when he was in the army, let alone mutton on weekdays, he didn't even see half a wool.
In the army, Li Zhongyi has always eaten with the soldiers, and he leads by example.
This time Xu Fenglai came again, but Li Anguo and the Yanai seized the opportunity and didn't take the opportunity to vent their grievances, so is he still the little overlord of Kaifeng City?
Others don't know, but Xu Fenglai knows in his heart that the Broken Army has not moved, it must be Li Zhongyi's heart.
But Li Zhongyi has always been sick, and he didn't even attend the joint military meeting of the two countries, and Xu Fenglai couldn't figure it out, what was Li Zhongyi's idea in his heart?
"Alas, my Goryeo country is a small and poor people, and there is a sudden rebellion, and the national strength is really empty......" Xu Fenglai's lie was rudely interrupted by Gao Gaoxiong before he finished making up, "Xu Shilang, what you say is not very authentic?" Ben will see with his own eyes that the small noodle chief in Zhenzhou eats sheep every day. ”
Gao Gao Xiong is very confident in saying this, these days, under Li Zhongyi's pretending to be confused with his eyes open and closed, he and Li Anguo have sneaked out of the camp to fight tooth sacrifices.
These two guys may not be able to lead troops to fight, and they will have a relationship through the back door, but they are one by one. I don't know how they did it, but they actually had a very warm relationship with several local noodle chiefs and chiefs in Zhenzhou, and they staggered every day, singing and dancing their lives, and having fun.
If it weren't for Li Zhongyi's strict military law, I am afraid that the people in the yamen would have to make trouble to the point of not returning to the camp at night.
Xu Fenglai knew that the lord of the country, Wang Zhao, just wanted to use the Zhou army as cannon fodder. When the rebellion is quelled, Zhou Junli will be sent out of the country, and Li Zhongyi will not be allowed to stay longer for a day.
This Li Zhongyi is as cunning as a fox, frequently pretending to be sick, today is not adaptable, Ming'er has become an occasional cold, and the day after tomorrow there is strange news that he fell from a horse.
In terms of the supply of materials, the Goryeo monarchs and ministers have always adopted the strategy of not giving the Zhou army too much food and too well, lest they have too much food and grass, and they will have different intentions.
However, Xu Fenglai is not an idle person, he rolled his eyes and said: "Some eunuch families, the family is very rich, and it is reasonable to eat sheep occasionally. It's just that our country's treasury has long been empty, and we can't take out too much money, so we can't rob the people's things, right? ”
Seeing that Li Anguo didn't think about it for a while, Gao Gao Xiong smiled coldly and said: "My army is stationed in Zhenzhou, every time you send food, you only send three days' worth of food, and the soldiers are hungry, how can they fight?" (To be continued)
