Keeping carrier pigeons, or using eagles to send messages, seemed to later generations to be taken for granted and commonplace.

For example, Jackie Chan's movie "Myth" has the content of the eagle's message; There are also descriptions of Bai Xiaosheng raising carrier pigeons and knowing the world in martial arts TV.

But in fact, in the era that Lin Chong is in now, whether it is a carrier pigeon or a carrier eagle, it is quite a rare novelty.

There is a record of Su Wu using wild geese to pass on books in ancient Chinese history books, so Li Qingzhao's words have the saying "who in the clouds sends brocade books", and later generations also often use Hongyan to pass on books to express letters.

However, the earliest record of carrier pigeons was in the Southern Song Dynasty.

According to records, Zhang Jun, a famous general and minister of the Southern Song Dynasty, once inspected the camp of his subordinates, Quduan, and when he arrived at the barracks, there was not a single soldier in sight, and he was very annoyed, so he said to Qu Duan that he wanted to inspect his army, and Qu Duan immediately handed over the roster of the five armies under his command.

Zhang Jun pointed to the roster and said that I want to inspect the First Army, Qu Duan unhurriedly opened the cage and released a carrier pigeon, and the officers and men of the First Army were fully armed and rushed to arrive.

Zhang Jun was shocked and said, "I want to see your entire army." Qu Duan released four more carrier pigeons, and the rest of the four armies were also summoned to arrive, which stunned Zhang Jun and turned to great joy.

Thinking that Zhang Jun led the troops all the year round, often went to the front line to inspect and supervise the war, and was so surprised to see the pigeon herald for the first time, it can be seen that the carrier pigeon has never appeared before.

For the same reason, Amu and Ashu were also very surprised when they heard Lin Chong talk about using Hai Dongqing to transmit military information, saying that they had never thought of it, but they could give it a try, and it was not a big problem.

"Master, in fact, in addition to hunting, Hai Dongqing's biggest role is to fight, they fly high, see far, can find the enemy in front of them in advance, and call the police in advance!"

Lin Chong bowed his head, he naturally thought of this purpose, so he specially brought the two of them here.

"Good! This time we have to rely on you more, with the help of two Haidongqing, our actions are getting more and more"

However, seeing that their father and son, uncle and nephew all looked a little lacking in confidence, Lin Chong couldn't help but smile and asked, "Are you afraid of this operation?" ”

"Nope."

Ah Shu hurriedly said respectfully: "The master is not afraid of such a high status, what are the three of us afraid of?" ”

Lin Chong stared at the three of them, and said lightly: "I'm afraid, you're just scared, you just joined the Liangshan Army, you don't know us, you don't know me, you think we are going to take risks, it's normal to be afraid, it's not ashamed." ”

Amu and Ashu's faces were slightly red, and Ah Shu lowered his eyes, not knowing what to say.

At this time, Lin Chong smiled, turned his head and called Wang Feiyu, who was watching the dolphins at the bow of the boat, to come over, and led a few people to the side of the boat.

I saw Lin Chong ask Wang Feiyu to take a long strip about six inches long and two inches thick, with black cast iron at one end and white wooden handle at the other. Unscrewed the lid behind the wooden handle, revealing a string with loops inside.

I saw Lin Chong pull the string, and the wooden handle soon emitted white smoke, and then Lin Chong threw it into the water casually, and after hearing a loud noise like thunder, the water splash in the sky was blown up, two or three zhang high, and two sea fish weighing four or five catties floated on the water surface.

Ah Shu and the three of them were stunned for a moment, immortal heaven is above! What the hell is this?

At this time, I heard Lin Chong's face not blushing, and his heart did not beat: "You are Jurchens, you may not know that in our Han family, there was a heavenly master named Zhang Daoling in the Han Dynasty.

Not long after Zhang Tianshi attained enlightenment, 100,000 evil ghosts besieged Qingcheng Mountain, and Zhang Tianshi relied on these five thunder Tianxin righteous methods to kill 100,000 ghosts cleanly.

These five thunder heavenly heart rectification is the most masculine and rigid thing in the world, and it is indestructible! And I happened to be taught this method by Master Zhang Tianshi in a dream.

With this method by my side, even if I am not afraid of 100,000 evil ghosts, how can I be afraid of just a few soldiers? Besides, we are a sneak attack, if there is a disagreement, turn around and leave, how can the Liao soldiers stop us! ”

Before Lin Chong finished speaking, he saw that Ah Shu and the three of them were very excited and knelt down towards Lin Chong again.

And Xu Guanzhong, Wang Feiyu, and Wu Song and others who watched the dolphins from the bow of the boat, the eyes of the sailors looking at Lin Chong were also a little different.

Lin Chong couldn't help but cry and laugh a little, and said in his heart that this was just me casually saying to fool these three Jurchens, you won't take it seriously, right?

And Xu Guanzhong, Wang Feiyu, Wu Song and others thought: No wonder the military master's brother is ignorant, new inventions are emerging one after another, and he also has the ability to conjure things out of thin air, so it turns out!

Looking at everyone's eyes like this, Lin Chong smiled, knowing that this matter could not be explained clearly, so he simply did not explain.

He helped Ah Shu and the three of them, and called Duan Jingzhu and the three of them, as well as Xu Guanzhong and Li Jun, to enter the cabin together, ready to discuss some details of the operation and formulate a combat plan.

Since the three of Ah Shu and Duan Jingzhu are going to be used, naturally they can't hide everything from them.

So Lin Chong asked Xu Guanzhong to briefly explain the purpose of this operation.

"The purpose of our trip, first, is to pretend to be a Jurchen army to raid Emperor Tianzuo of Liao, who is hunting in Dading Mansion in Zhongjing.

Of course, it is not really necessary to do this, just to create this illusion for the Liao State, as long as they are scared, thinking that the Jurchens will launch a large-scale attack on the Liao State again, they will not dare to send a large army to the Western Xia border.

The second is that Kou can go, and I can also go. Every year, the Liao State goes south to fight the grass valley to plunder wealth and livelihood, and this time our Liangshan army is to use its own way to govern its people, and try to plunder the property of the Liao State along the way, especially the war horses......"

Speaking of which, Emperor Tianzuo of the Liao State is also a superb emperor, and his mediocrity is not much better than that of Zhao Jilai.

Both of them are also poor and extravagant; are also favored and traitorous and corrupt the dynasty; The same rejection of admonition and disobedience, rebuke loyalty and goodness......

There are so many things in common, but the most important thing is that both of them are greedy for fun.

Zhao Ji likes juju, flowers, birds, fish and stones, art, calligraphy and painting; And Emperor Tianzuo's greatest hobby is hunting.

According to historical records, since the emperor came, this cargo has been hunting almost all year round, and if he no longer hunts, he is on the way to hunting.

Even after losing half of the country, he was even chased by the Jurchens and fled to a hidden swamp in Jiashan, where he still had to hunt and recreation every day.

Moreover, there is also the system of four seasons bowl (Khitan language, Liao Emperor's palace), if in the past, the spring bowl was caught in the fish of Changchun Prefecture, mixed with the river hook fish; The summer bowl is in Yong'an Mountain or Tan Mountain, taking refuge in the summer and Zhang Ying; Autumn bowl shooting deer in Gyeongju Fuhu Forest; Winter bowl in Yongzhou Guangpingdian, hunting tigers.

However, at this time, the Jurchen rose, the entire Tokyo Province of the Liao Kingdom was lost, Shangjing was also captured, and Chunzhou in the spring bowl and Yong'an Mountain in the summer bowl could not go.

According to the information found by Zhao Lancheng and Liang Shanjun themselves, at this time, Emperor Tianzuo was hunting in Luming Mountain in Yuzhou, near Dading Mansion.

The purpose of Lin Chong and the others was to land near Jinzhou, bypass the Songling Mountains, march more than 450 miles, and kill near Luming Mountain, scaring him to death.
