Chapter 208: Encirclement
Li Xiaogong patted Li Jing's cotton clothes: "These are secondary, if you have this thing, at least the people can suffer less from freezing, this is a great merit, seeing that the New Year is approaching, we might as well give this kind of child as a New Year's gift to Your Majesty!" ”
Li Jing nodded: "There is indeed nothing more suitable than this thing as a New Year's gift to Your Majesty, since we have military affairs that we can't get out of, let's send a thousand people to escort some cotton and seeds to the capital." ”
After speaking, Li Jing and Li Xiaogong glanced at the account books on the case together and smiled at each other.
The emperor's sycophants have to be filmed by all civil and military officials, and they have to be filmed every year. One of the ways to pat on the back is to give gifts to the emperor every year during the Chinese New Year, and the value of the gifts varies in size, even if they are as shabby as Wei Zheng, they have to write a couplet to send to the emperor.
After all, except for the grassland, Nanzhao and other poor places, other places are very rich, and the army has a lot of harvest, which is called "war failure". Some of them belonged to the emperor, and the rest were distributed to the army after the imperial court counted them to match the imperial court's rewards.
The meaning of Li Xiaogong's words is obvious, that is, to replace the part that belonged to the emperor in the war with cotton seeds, and also to replace the New Year's gifts of the two families.
The emperor got his name, Li Xiaogong and Li Jing benefited, and by the way, he also patted a horse fart, or a dragon fart. This business is sure to make money without losing money!
Gaochang is located on the Silk Road, doing the business of "robbing the road", so it has accumulated a lot of wealth, such wealth, distributed to 50,000 soldiers, everyone can be said to earn a lot of money, those soldiers who died in battle, the pension will be particularly considerable, enough to support several families for several years.
This is the purpose of Li Jing and Li Xiaogong! is also the difference between them and Hou Junji, Hou Junji did not move to his own house in the private annexation war, while Li Jing and Li Xiaogong were "Ming" swallowing the emperor's part, and then distributed it to the soldiers.
Li Xiaogong touched the human-level thunder hanging on his waist, and said to Li Jing: "These riches, we have to give a copy of the Duke of Xi Guo and the Thunderbolt Division, without gunpowder weapons, we will lose 30% of the soldiers in this battle against Gaochang!" ”
Li Jing naturally has no opinion, the miraculous effect of gunpowder weapons on the battlefield has touched him a lot, and made him discover a way to win more with less in an open and honest way, even if Li Xiaogong doesn't speak, he will speak.
"Two marshals! What's going on with this credit book! ”
As soon as the two of them finalized the matter of giving Leng Feng a red envelope, Wuli Sima Zhou Changshou got into the handsome tent without even reporting it.
Li Xiaogong smiled bitterly and began to "reason" with Zhou Changshou.
Li Jing glanced at Li Xiaogong gloatingly, and then continued to experiment with his cotton clothes, Wuli Sima is similar to the emperor's disciples, and everything he does is from the starting point of "sharing worries for His Majesty".
If Li Xiaogong's "gift-giving" document wants to be sent, he must first pass the pass of Zhou Changshou and persuade Emperor Wuli Sima Keng to be much more difficult than breaking through the Gaochang Royal City, and I don't know how much saliva Li Xiaogong will pay.
Out of the tent, Li Jing immediately mobilized scouts to spy on the Western Turkic border, the recalcitrant forces in Gaochang have been almost swept away, and at this time, it will not be seconds if the Western Turks are "left behind".
It was also night, the Tang army in Gaochang shivered in the cold wind, but the soldiers of the Dragon Tooth Army in Lingnan were so hot that they jumped to their feet.
They are used to the cold and heat in Guanzhong, but they are not used to the sultry heat in Lingnan, plus it has just rained heavily, and now they feel that they are drinking water when they open their mouths to speak in Lingnan.
The resting people are better, the army is full of big men, there is nothing to be shy about, it doesn't matter if you take off your own and leave a fig leaf.
But the patrol people are not good, and they have to wear armor when patrolling, which is simply torture.
Although Leng Feng didn't take off his underwear, he was only wearing a wide robe, because he was looking at the telescope, so he often had to come out to see the movement on the other side of the river.
In the morning, Leng Feng took Li Erniu to continue the work of "looking far".
Looking at the restless patrol soldiers of the Dragon Tooth Army, Leng Feng poked the shirtless Li Erniu and said: "Although the sultry heat in Lingnan is tormenting, it won't let you do this, when you return to Chang'an, I will find an opportunity to take you to the desert, you will know that the sultry heat is a supreme enjoyment!" ”
Li Erniu is not afraid of killing the enemy, he is afraid of the boss's special training, and it turns out that the training given to them by Leng Feng is very terrifying! Even now Li Erniu already feels that he is a character, this is true.
Walking to a place with a wide field of vision, Leng Feng took a telescope to look at the other side of the river, and at this time it was already clear, and there was a lot of smoke coming out of the woods on the other side of the river.
Although the Nanzhao people did not have food supplies, the Lingnan mountains and forests, which were rich in products, gave them enough supplies, such as wild beasts, wild fruits, and river fish.........
Leng Feng handed the telescope to Li Erniu: "Test you, see if you can judge the strength of the opposite side." ”
Li Erniu took the binoculars, looked at the smoke on the opposite side and said, "There are about thirty or forty thousand, otherwise the smoke would not have reached such a scale, and it would be almost a mountain fire." ”
Leng Feng pointed to the other side of the river and asked, "Erniu, if you were in command of the army, what would you do?" ”
Li Erniu said without thinking: "A small number of troops feint, and a large army surrounds it!" An army of 100,000 can completely eat these people! ”
Leng Feng nodded, then pointed to a small mound on the edge of the woods and said: "Your task is to feint, with gunpowder weapons in hand, the weather is still sunny, even if you are under the pressure of twenty or thirty thousand, you can hold out for a long time." Don't pity the weapons, as long as we win this battle tomorrow, we can have a vacation in Lingnan. ”
Li Erniu asked confusedly: "Isn't Feng Zhidai's reinforcements not yet here?" Let's attack? ”
Leng Feng patted Li Erniu and said, "You stupid cow can think of things, how could Feng Zhidai, that shrewd ghost-like guy, not think of it." Feng Ang told me last night that Feng Zhidai did not join us, but copied their back road, understand? ”
Li Erniu suddenly came to his senses, he was very unhappy with the dryness of the past two days, if he could go into battle and fight, let him vent!
Leng Feng looked at Li Erniu's cold eyes and knew that this guy was coming again, and couldn't help but slap the back of his neck: "Remember!" With gunpowder weapons, if you can't wait, you can go to hand-to-hand combat, and I will let the Lingnan cooks stew you when you get off the battlefield! ”
Li Erniu covered his neck in severe pain, and immediately didn't dare to say anything, and the boss didn't know when he developed a broken habit, so he specially slapped the back of his neck, and he was very black! Or smoke while people are not paying attention! It hurts to death!
