Chapter 54: Unexpected Joy
readx;
The sun is blazing, and the heat is unstoppable. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info Although Song Jun is sweating like rain, no one complains that he is tired and is training desperately.
"Mo Dao, split!" With the command of the Converts, a series of shining sword lights appeared in the sky, like mirrors, emitting a dazzling cold light.
"Hack again!"
Another flash of knife light made people's hearts palpitate.
"Bow breaking, shoot!"
On the other side, under the order of the Returning Army, arrows appeared in the air, weaving into a net, and the sound of sighing was endless.
"Chopping knife, chop!" Another converting army ordered, and one after another captivity knives were constantly swinging, slashing and slashing sharply.
"Cavalry, kill!"
The sound of hooves suddenly sounded, and they galloped away, and the crossbows continued to exert their might, and the crossbow arrows flew through the air, leaving beautiful arcs behind them.
Han Fang looked at the Baoding Army that was training, his eyes did not blink, he was very happy, and smiled at Wu Ji: "Commander Wu Du, before, I heard that the Conversion Army is very good, and its combat power is amazing. Only now did I know that the combat power of the Converts was far more than that. ”
His right hand pointed at the Baoding Army who was training, and said with a smile: "Hehe! You see, these rabbit cubs have changed a lot now, they are much stronger than before, and they are like bears. I really haven't said anything about this way of working hard. In the past, when I trained them, they were all so miserable that they wished they would never train. Now, they can't wait to train every day. ”
"Actually, it's nothing, as long as they have hope and hope, they will train hard." Wu Ji glanced at the Baoding army who was sweating like rain.
"Haha!" The Korean side let out a burst of laughter and said, "Before, even if I wore out my mouth, they didn't want to move. Now, with the converts, they are all diligent and able to endure hardships. They don't say ten times a day that they are converted, and it won't be dark. Commander Wu Du, guess what they say the most when they mention the Converts Army? ”
"I know that. They said vigorously, "Look at the people who have converted to the army, they are all so rich that they have become rich people." Like Li Mingchu, these people, after a few more battles, the three generations of their ancestors have no worries about food and clothing. Wu Ji was a little funny.
"Ahh Han Fang stroked his forehead and said, "Killing the enemy is what every soldier must do. However, if there is no gain, no one wants to do it. The records of the converted army are ahead, there is hope, there is hope, and it is impossible for them not to admire them. ”
This is a big truth, if there is no hope, no hope, who wants to do it? The Song army just has no hope, no hope, and it can't be done if they don't have low morale. The Song Dynasty emphasized literature over military force, and the social status of soldiers was low, and they were scolded as thieves and soldiers. Moreover, although the military salary is very generous, due to rampant corruption, deducting military salary has become a common practice, who wants to sell their lives? Not to mention, there are endless things to rob merit and risking merit, if you make great contributions, not only will you not be appreciated, maybe you will plot against your superiors, who wants to kill the enemy?
With these factors, it was really difficult for the Song army to win the battle.
Now it's different, with the living example of the Converting Army in front of you, you can't ask these selected Song Army not to work hard. Especially when they knew that the converts had a lot of booty and had become rich landlords, they were even more envious.
"It's ridiculous that these rabbit cubs, when the Converts came, they made things difficult in many ways, and they fought a lot." The Korean side is a little funny.
The Converts were ordered to come to train these Song troops, they were all selected elites, their eyes were higher than the low, they did not take the Converts Army in their eyes, there were provocateurs, there were fights, and for a while, it would not be dark if there were no fights a few times a day. When it comes to fighting, the Converts are not inferior to others, so they will be subdued first.
After a fight, these Song soldiers realized the horror of the Converting Army, and they had to accept it if they didn't accept it.
"Li Mingchu beat your battalion commander miserably, and now, not only does he not care, but he also calls Brother Li and Brother Li all day long." Wu Ji touched the Korean side and pointed at the battalion commander and teased. The commander of this battalion was standing beside Li Mingchu, whispering and laughing, and the two of them hooked their shoulders and backs, as if they were wearing a pair of pants.
"What's going on? Don't talk nonsense! Han Fang's face was pulled down. In that fight, he made a bet with Wu Ji that if Wu Ji hadn't spared him once, he would have to learn how to bark, and when he mentioned it, he was very unhappy.
"It's all in the past, you're not happy, little belly." When Wang Shao arrived, he happened to see Han Fang's dejected face and made fun of it.
"Wang Shumi, my measure is too big, you don't see it." The South Korean side was busy arguing.
"Huh!" Wang Shao let out a burst of laughter, his face was full of red light, he smiled, patted Wu Ji's shoulder, and said, "Brother Wu, go, tell you a great joy for my brother!" What a happy event! ”
"Oh!" Wu Ji saw Wang Shao's joy in his eyes, was a little surprised, and asked, "What kind of happy event?" ”
What can make Wang Shao so happy is definitely not a trivial matter, and Han Fang is also curious, but he waved his hand to Wang Shao and said, "General Han, don't come with you." This matter is related to the secrets of the imperial court, you should not know about it. ”
Wang Shao pulled Wu Ji and walked far away, looked around, and saw that there was no one, so he lowered his voice and said, "Brother Wu, do you know?" Liao's thunderbolt cannon is ruined, ruined! ”
Wang Shao had already told Wu Ji about the artillery, and when Wu Ji heard this, he couldn't help but be surprised, and he was stunned for a long time before he reacted: "Ruined? Who ruined it? Did the king send someone to destroy it? Well ruined! ”
Yelu Hongji stole the secrets of artillery from the Song Dynasty, which is really infuriating, if it is destroyed, it is a very happy thing, Wu Ji is a little high.
"Be quiet." Wang Shao admonished, shook his head and said, "I didn't destroy it, you destroyed it." ”
"Me?" Wu Ji was surprised, he didn't believe it, he saw Wang Shao's serious look in his eyes, and he had to believe it: "There is nothing at all." I'm busy training troops, how can I destroy the thunderbolt artillery of the Liao State? ”
"You ruined it." Wang Shao was very serious, his right thumb was raised high, and he praised: "Brother, you are good!" ”
"Unless I'm an immortal and can cast spells!" Wu Ji was very angry.
"Almost! You really can cast spells! Wang Shao's thumb almost pierced the sky.
Wu Ji became more and more confused, and urged: "Wang Shumi, you say it quickly, don't sell it." ”
"Huh!" Wang Shao stroked his forehead and said, "This matter is really related to Brother Wu, and it has a lot to do with it." According to the news that Liaogou broke a branch of the Qiyun Society and got a few thunderbolts, Yelu Hongji took the thunderbolts to the place where the thunderbolts were made, and the next day the place was a shocking thunderbolt, which was so destroyed that even those craftsmen did not escape. ”
“……”
Wu Ji was speechless when he heard it, and he didn't say anything for a long time. It's too hard to believe, how coincidental is that? Such a coincidence also happened to him.
"Smack!" Wang Shao patted Wu Ji's shoulder vigorously and said with a smile: "Brother Wu, are you also surprised?" When I heard about it, I sat for a long time before I believed it was true. Brother Wu, what did you say happened to destroy that place? ”
If you want to understand the reason, you can only ask Wu Ji.
"How can I know this? Didn't find out? Wu Ji also couldn't figure it out.
"It's good to be able to find this step. It's heavily guarded, and where can our people enter. Wang Shao shook his head.
It is conceivable that it will be the most secret place in the Liao Kingdom, and not many people can enter, and it is really difficult to find out the detailed works of the Song Dynasty.
"It's just a coincidence." Wu Ji's brows were twisted together, and he muttered: "There should be a lot of gunpowder in that place, and the earth-shattering thunderbolt was the gunpowder that ignited the explosion. It is not easy to ignite the gunpowder. The craftsmen who can participate in the manufacture of thunderbolt cannons must be the most desirable craftsmen in the Liao State, and they know the power of gunpowder and will not make such mistakes. Besides, even if there is an accident, not a single craftsman will not escape, and there will be so many people who will escape. In fact, none of them escaped, there could only be one reason, they were studying thunderbolts. ”
This analysis is very reasonable, Wang Shao couldn't help nodding his head, and said: "Our thunderbolt is amazing, more powerful, and better to use." If you get it, if Yelu Hongji doesn't think about it, it won't be reasonable, it is likely that those craftsmen gathered around to ponder and had an accident, which is why this happened. ”
"It's not that there was an accident, it's that they think it's too much." The more Wu Ji thought about it, the more he understood: "They must be dismantling thunderbolts." Hmph, my thunderbolt can't be dismantled at all, no one can't dismantle it, not even me. As soon as it is dismantled, it will be blown up, they don't understand this, or they can't do it. ”
Speaking of this, Wu Ji couldn't help but shake his head, and said with some amusement: "It just so happens that the place where they dismantled is not far from the place where the gunpowder was placed, otherwise, it will not be detonated." ”
Although the specific situation is not clear, Wu Ji's speculation is not far away.
"Regardless of that, it's a good thing after all!" Wang Shao's eyes narrowed together with a smile: "It doesn't matter if the place or gunpowder is destroyed, the Liao Kingdom can come back." However, without those craftsmen, Yeluhongki would not have thought of making a thunderbolt. ”
The craftsmen involved in the manufacture of thunderbolts were the top craftsmen of the Liao Kingdom, and they all died. Even if Yelu Hongji had to start over, it would take a lot of effort, and it would be impossible to build artillery within three or five years, which was a great thing for the Song Dynasty.
"It's such a coincidence." Wu Ji was still a little unbelievable at the moment, so he couldn't help shaking his head and said, "It can only be regarded as an unexpected joy!" ”
"It doesn't matter if it's an unexpected joy or an unexpected event, it's a good thing!" Wang Shao smiled heartily.

Song Shenzong was holding a wine glass and drinking: "This wine tastes long!" Again! ”
Shao Jiu was busy filling it up, and Song Shenzong drank three cups in a row, only then was he satisfied, and said with a smile: "Shao Jiu, do you know why I am so happy?" I didn't tell you, this Wu Ji is really a blessed general, a blessed person. Yelu Hongji got a few thunderbolts, but he didn't expect to kill all the craftsmen. Ha ha! Yelu Hongji, Yelu Hongji, you stole the secret of the thunderbolt back then, which made me angry, didn't you expect it? In the end, you are a bamboo basket to draw water, a nothing! ”
