Chapter 477: Preparations
Zhenguan ten years, came very calm, no major events happened, the people of Juxian County this year did not come to the top of the mountain to pay New Year's greetings, and they still know the news of the closure of Mantou Mountain.
Right next to Xueer Academy, near Suzaku Temple, there is now an Iron Mountain!
In such a short period of more than a month, this iron mountain has been piled up more than 20 meters high! Just looking at it can be a terrible pressure!
Suzaku Academy has also been on vacation for a long time, a month and a half is their winter vacation time, and when they go home, they can use their credits to exchange for entanglement, and students from poor families also have money to go home for the New Year.
Su Bai is now by Zhao Yue'er's side all day long, and he doesn't go to the library, looking at Zhao Yue'er's belly growing day by day, he has a strong sense of satisfaction, this feeling may only be experienced by those who have been fathers.
Zhao Yue'er likes this feeling of being spoiled very much, the two of them look like you and me, which can make Li Yuerou, a single dog, sour~
After the family spent the Spring Festival happily, they began to prepare for the new year, some students from the college came back, and there were many strange students who came to Juxian, they planned to wait until February 2, and wanted to try to join the college.
With the growing reputation of Wushuang Hou, the reputation of Xueer College is also getting bigger and bigger, and now the college has recruited two batches of students, and after two years, after the first batch of students graduate, they will definitely get to know Xueer College from a new place!
Xie Bi'an and Fan Wusu continued to train the secret guards underground, and the secret guards once again recovered to the scale of five hundred, Xie Bi'an has been training them more strictly since he broke through to the little grandmaster, and even Fan Wuxuan is now forced by Xie Bi'an to fight him every day!
Fan Wusu also understands that Xie Bi'an wants to make himself feel like a breakthrough, but whoever is beaten day by day has a blue nose and swollen face, and he is not happy in his heart!
Xue Rengui was also busy after the New Year, and on the third day of the first month of Su Bai, he suddenly wanted to test the strength of his own guards, and then held a wooden stick in his hand, entered and exited the crowd three times, and killed them in a crush!
This scene directly made Xue Rengui's face blue, and Han Laohu's face was red, he was ashamed.
Su Bai then beat and deformed, threw all the wooden sticks aside and said, "It's so meaningless."
Han Laohu's face turned even redder, and he was about to drip blood! The Ghost King Army was trained by him, and these three thousand personal soldiers were also trained by him, so he naturally knew what was missing, and at that moment, Han Laohu and Xue Rengui asked to go out to suppress the bandits!
The difference in these people is that they lack a murderous aura!
There were too few battles between them, Su Bai smiled and patted Xue Rengui on the shoulder and said, "There is still a lot of time, don't rush, but if one day I use them, I hope they can become an iron wall!" ”
The last two words are said to be extraordinarily hard! These 3,000 people, Su Bai will be of great use in the future! Even if he hoped that the future would not be like that day, he could not help but prepare.
The current guards have not yet met the expectations in his heart.
Everyone is busy, only Su Bai is idle, everyone has their own things that need to be busy, only Su Bai is idle day by day, and he is tired of being with his wife every day, which makes Wang Fugui and several people grit their teeth.
……
"Your Majesty, that Li Huai has now become a guest of honor in Goguryeo, and I even heard that Goguryeo intends to prepare an army for Li Huai! Let Li Huai kill back! ”
Wang Xi's voice was as calm as ever, as if he was an emotionless robot, and at this moment, he was holding a small note in his hand, which was the news passed back by the Xuanwei.
Li Shimin couldn't hold back after hearing this, and laughed out loud, and Wang Xi also echoed and laughed twice.
Li Shimin smiled: "Kill back? Hahaha, I want to know, what did Li Huai promise to give him, so that they could grow such a big bear-hearted leopard gall! ”
Li Shimin sneered twice, and then said: "Originally, I wanted to wait a little longer, since they are so ambitious!" If I don't do something, won't they let them look down on me! ”
Wang Xi didn't speak, and he also knew that Li Shimin didn't need his opinion.
Li Shimin is indeed a Ming Jun, but equally, he is also a dictator! He can accept other people's opinions, but first of all, that opinion is guided by him as a matter of day-before-day severity!
Li Shimin casually drew a circle on the paper and said, "Let the household department prepare military expenses!" The weather in Goguryeo is cold, and the mountains are covered with heavy snow in winter, so let Hou Junji prepare, in March and April! ”
Li Shimin took a big fork in the circle and said: "That's when they perish!" ”
Li Shimin's expression was a little fanatical, how did the Sui Dynasty fall? Conquer Goguryeo!
If it wasn't for the competition with Goguryeo at that time, the Great Sui would have been able to win the national fortune for at least ten years! If it weren't for the fact that the main forces of the Great Sui were all consumed in Goguryeo, would the eighteen-way anti-king still dare to rebel?
What the Sui Dynasty can't do, if the Tang Dynasty does it! And it was made in its own hands, what will history say about itself?
"How's the army of Goguryeo?"
Li Shimin thought about it and asked, Wang Xi pondered a little and then said: "Now the news we have found out is that the other party has 50,000 regular troops!" If you are fighting in the territory of the enemy country, the opponent's combat power can even be on a par with the Ghost King and the Second Army of Suppressing Evil Spirits! ”
Li Shimin frowned, and then asked, "Winter or summer?" ”
"Summer!"
Wang Xi replied very simply, without even hesitating, Li Shimin's brows furrowed even tighter!
In Goguryeo in winter, when the snow is at its heaviest, it can be as thick as one meter a day! What is the concept?
If you camp tonight, you'll freeze your entire camp to death tomorrow morning!" That's that exaggerated! In fact, because of the romance, everyone has a prejudice against the Sui Dynasty, thinking that the Sui Dynasty was tyrannical and the officials were corrupt, in a word, it was all waste!
But in fact, on the contrary, the so-called history books are written by the victors, and this is the truth! In fact, the commerce, industry, and so on of the Sui Dynasty were exceptionally developed! It can be called a strong country! But that's how they lost, and most of it, because of the weather and terrain of Goguryeo!
Li Shimin got up and walked to the world map given to him by Su Bai, looked at it, couldn't help but smile, stretched out his hand and pressed it on the territory of Goguryeo and said with a smile: "I don't know if I can make this whole map in my lifetime!" have become my Datang territory! ”
……
"You say, King Wei? Are you sure you're right? ”
In the Baiyu Building in Juxian County, Wang Xiaobao stared at the person reporting in front of him with a serious face.
The man nodded and whispered, "That's right! The characteristics of King Wei are easy to identify, and our spies will never be mistaken."
Wang Xiaobao's brows couldn't help frowning, and he said softly: "A few days ago, King Wei pretended to be sick, but he went there!" ”
The spy lowered his head, heard Wang Xiaobao's self-talk, took out a piece of paper in his arms and said: "Before we arrived, the King of Wei had already bought a lot of iron ore, and those merchants wanted to regret it because we bought iron at a higher price, but the King of Wei naturally disagreed, and we only investigated the King of Wei."
Wang Xiaobao frowned and said, "King Wei is not in the mansion, why haven't we received any news for such a big matter?" ”
The spy lowered his head and didn't dare to say a word, Wang Xiaobao's brows were tightened, and his fingers tapped on the table in front of him, and after about two or three minutes, Wang Xiaobao said softly: "From now on!" King Wei's every move is all rewarded! I have to know who he meets, who he talks to, and even what he eats three times a day! ”
"Yes!"
The spy in front of him agreed, and he already lowered his head, waiting for Wang Xiaobao's order.
Wang Xiaobao picked up a piece of rice paper on the table, wrote a sentence on it casually, stamped his seal, put it in an envelope, and threw it to the spy and said, "Give it to Chang'an Bian Liang!" ”
The person in charge of Bian Liang's Chang'an White Jade Building!
There are only five simple words on Wang Xiaobao's letter, there is a mole! Quick Look!
These five words can make the underground world of Chang'an flow into a river of blood! Wang Xiaobao looked at him and said softly, "Why don't you leave and wait for me to invite you to dinner?" ”
The spies hurriedly ran out! The spy is a master of the internal force realm, but when facing Wang Xiaobao, who is just an ordinary person, he can't even speak nervously!
Wang Xiaobao simply cleaned up the room, and brought all the important things with him, such as important secret letters, as well as his own seals, etc., such a big thing, he must report it back to Su Bai.
Steamed Bun Mountain is closed, but who will score it, for example, Tang Ju and Wang Xiaobao, Wang Fugui, Xue Rengui, these Su Bai's descendants, this Steamed Bun Mountain is no different from usual.
When Wang Xiaobao came to Mantou Mountain, he saw Yuan Cen walking on a horse, naked in the snow!
On his shoulders, there was a small incense burner, and there was a bowl of water on his head, and there were several incense sticks burning in the incense burner on his shoulders, which only burned less than a third, and it seemed that it could burn for at least half an hour.
Su Bai was standing in front of him, dressed in a moon-white skin, and Lu Yuan and Qiu Fu were standing behind Yuan Cen, each holding a wooden stick the thickness of a baby's fist in their hands!
Su Bai yawned big and said, "Don't stop! Go on! ”
After Lu Yuan and Qiu Fu glanced at each other, they gritted their teeth, picked up the wooden stick, and slapped Yuan Cen on his body one by one!
As soon as Yuan Cen's body shook, some of the burning incense ash on his shoulders fell down, touching his skin, and he immediately became red and swollen.
Wang Xiaobao was a little unbearable, but he understood his responsibilities and identity, so he didn't say a word, just walked up to Su Bai and whispered: "Master Hou, King Wei, there was a little accident"
Su Bai's eyes narrowed, and he looked at Wang Xiaobao and said, "Accident? ”
Wang Xiaobao nodded, took out the secret letter in his arms, and handed it to Su Bai.
Su Bai didn't shy away from it, in front of him were his henchmen and his own disciples, so naturally there was nothing to hide from them.
opened the envelope, took out the letter paper and looked at it twice, Su Bai's face was a little difficult to look at, and his eyes became smaller and smaller.
After reading it all, Su Bai put the secret letter in the palm of his hand, rubbed his hands, and the letter became powder.
Glancing at Yuan Cen in front of him, who was still gritting his teeth and insisting, Su Bai casually took down the bowl of water on his head, handed it to Lu Yuan behind him and said, "Change a bowl of hot, this bowl of water is frozen, just change it to a new bowl, and then add incense, understand?" ”
Lu Yuan looked at his second senior brother, and said a little unbearably: "Master, when is this a head?"
Su Bai glanced at him and said, "Until this bowl of water is not frozen, the incense burns out!" Do you understand? ”
Lu Yuan still respects this master very much, or is a little afraid, he is not a fool, he can feel that the master is guarding against him and Wang Mingzhu to play together. But this can't stop his determination, his father has said, true love is invincible!
After Su Bai finished speaking, he looked at Yuan Cen and said, "Can you persevere?" ”
Yuan Cen said expressionlessly: "Yes!" ”
Su Bai nodded with satisfaction, and then said softly: "You two are not allowed to release water!" That's not helping the second child, but hurting him! Do you understand? ”
"Understood!"
"Understood!"
The two of them replied loudly in unison, Su Bai nodded, and took Wang Xiaobao towards the study in the mansion, and after the two arrived at the study, Su Bai asked, "When was the news delivered?" ”
"This morning!"
Su Bai frowned, and then asked, "What channel?" ”
"Pigeon"
"On such a cold day, the speed of carrier pigeons is also slow."
"Well, carrier pigeons fly a lot slower in winter"
Su Bai frowned, the source of this letter is Liangzhou!
The content of this letter said that the king of Wei is in Liangzhou, Liangzhou is not too far from Xi'an, but it also takes two days away, and in this weather, it will take at least three days.
The reason why this matter was discovered was because of Su Bai.
According to the secret letter, King Wei bought the largest iron ore mine in Liangzhou at a very low price, and now the mine owner regretted it after knowing that Wushuang Hou Ye bought iron ore and wanted to sell the iron ore to Wushuang Hou.
King Wei naturally wouldn't watch this kind of thing happen, and took the initiative to negotiate with the mine owner, and it happened that the people from Baiyulou were also there, so they discovered King Wei!
Su Bai's brows furrowed tightly, Iron Mine, Liangzhou, King Wei, three things happened together, it was hard not to make Su Bai think about it!
What does King Wei want iron ore for? Want to make money by striking iron? With the status and knowledge of the King of Wei, he has a lot of ways to make money, and he can still look at this dirty and tiring method?
So what does he want iron for?
Su Bai may be a little extreme, iron ore, iron smelting! Craft weapons! Rebel!
This is the first thought that came to Su Bai's mind after seeing the secret letter!!
Judging from the current situation of King Wei, if there are no accidents, the future throne will definitely be in his eldest brother's pocket!
Then, if he wants to become emperor, perhaps, there is only one last way left......
