Chapter 387: Male Pet and Female Lead

Lin Zhao was very moved, Shen Kuo had a heart, and knew that he might have unexpected troubles when he went to Suizhou for peace talks, so he deliberately rushed to make the Divine Arm Crossbow so that he could prepare for emergencies. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

This affection, Lin Zhao kept in mind.

Shen Kuo hurried up here and made twenty divine arm crossbows, which were not much, but the power was absolutely not enough. I don't know what the situation is when I go to Suizhou, but with such an artifact in hand, maybe it will help, and it will be beneficial after all.

Before leaving, Lin Zhao remembered another divine weapon, that is, the bed crossbow, to be precise, the three-bow bed crossbow during the Song Dynasty.

I had seen the information in my previous life, although I didn't know the specific manufacturing method, but Lin Zhao believed that as long as the prompt came out, Shen Kuo would always have a way. There is also a craftsman named Li Ding, who is even more ingenious, and such a heavy task is entrusted to them, and the result is waiting to be seen.

The Northern Song Dynasty was still in the era of cold weapons, and although gunpowder had been discovered at the end of the Tang Dynasty, it was not used in the military field until the Southern Song Dynasty. Lin Zhao, who was born in the police academy, naturally knew the formula of gunpowder, and it was estimated that he could get it after a few more tests, but Lin Zhao did not plan to do so.

In these days in the Northwest, he saw the cruelty of war, and as a result of which countless people were killed and wounded. If we enter the gunpowder age too early, the destructive and lethal power of war will be even more terrifying, and the casualties will be even more tragic. Lin Zhao didn't want to do this, why bother to cause misery because of his own selfishness? Moreover, the development of science and technology is a slow process, so why bother to help it grow?

It is okay to promote some of the things that are already in the era itself, or to invent things that are convenient for people's livelihood. For example, wet copper smelting, such as inspiring the production of Shen Kuo's bird diagram. It is worth mentioning that Shen Kuo has already begun to make a map of the whole country, and he will dedicate it to the emperor in the future, thinking that it is the legendary "Guardian Map", but it will take a long, long time to complete......

But in the military field, when it comes to killing weapons, you must be cautious, Lin Zhao is a kind person. All we can do is to improve and make suggestions based on the original of this era. For example, the Divine Arm Crossbow and the Three-Bow Bed Crossbow themselves were things from the Song Dynasty, and they were just using history to influence history, and they were not ahead of their time.

In fact, it is enough to have these things, as long as Shen Kuo can complete it, and finally popularize these weapons into the army and become standard weapons, the combat effectiveness of the Song army can also be improved a lot. As for gunpowder, let's wait until a hundred years later! For the loss of Lin Zhao and the people of the Great Song Dynasty, it may be that they can't see the bright fireworks, that's all.

In Yanzhou, it is destined to be only a small station, and after passing through Qingjian City, he will go to Suizhou to start peace talks with words. Then before leaving Yanzhou, there is one thing that must be taken care of.

That is Li Donglin, and that mysterious caravan, how to deal with it? Put them in Yanju? Perhaps the magistrate will treat them as spies. Lin Zhao didn't want to wronged a good person, so he wanted to be responsible to the end. But it doesn't seem appropriate to let it go, in case it becomes a fish that slips through the net, it will be troublesome. At the same time, Lin Zhao vaguely felt that this Li Donglin and his caravan seemed to be of some use, but he couldn't say how to use it and where it could be used.

The subsequent news confirmed this, and the scouts of the Western Army detected a message that a big man from the Western Xia side would come to Suizhou.

Big shot? How big is the character? Lin Zhao couldn't help muttering in his heart, their ministers have all been captured, could it be that this person is more noble than Liang Yiburi? It seems that in the entire Western Xia, there are only two people who meet this condition, and there are undoubtedly Empress Dowager Liang and Li Bingchang, the lord of the country. Are you kidding? Will the lord of the small country of Western Xia and his ** come to Suizhou to take risks? Lin Zhao shook his head slightly.

Immediately, it occurred to me that what Suizhou was going to carry out was a peace negotiation between the Song and Xia countries. The Western Xia side must have also sent more important people to come, it is estimated that they are the so-called big people, but they were just made a big fuss!

So a bold guess came to mind, could it be that Li Donglin's owner came to Suizhou? Are you here to participate in the peace talks? This is very consistent with the change of exchange venue from Xingqing to Suizhou. If this is the case, Lin Zhao's heart moved, maybe some factors can be used......

"Brother Changzuo, I have an idea!" Lin Zhao found Liu Changzuo in time and discussed related matters with him.

"What?"

Lin Zhao hesitated: "Maybe Li Donglin really went to Suizhou to deliver the goods, so it is estimated that his patron may be a Xixia person who participated in the peace talks?" ”

"Oh?" Hearing this, Liu Changzuo's heart moved, and he immediately understood, thoughtful. Immediately, he looked at Lin Zhao suspiciously, and asked, "Dongyang, do you have any ideas?" ”

"Yes, although this peace talk is on the border between Suizhou and my Great Song Dynasty, we also have to know more about the situation in Suizhou, otherwise we will ...... when the time comes" Lin Zhao's current meaning is obvious, knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent can not be defeated in a hundred battles. If you can understand the situation in Suizhou and be wary of the Western Xia people, it will naturally be the best.

Liu Changzuo pondered for a long time and said, "What does Dongyang mean? ”

"Send someone to take Li Donglin to Suizhou!" Lin Zhao expressed his thoughts. As for whether it is right or not, and how much of a role it can play, to be honest, Lin Zhaozi can't say. He just felt that there was a necessity, maybe there would be unexpected gains, it was completely a premonition!

Liu Changzuo hesitated for a moment, obviously planning the matter, and asked after a while, "Then who is Dongyang going to send?" ”

In fact, Lin Zhao originally planned to let Liu Changzuo go, but there was a shortage of manpower along the way, especially for this kind of big event, there must be a proper person to preside over it. Judging from the current situation, Liu Changzuo may not be willing, after all, this move has the feeling of a headless fly, and it is dangerous on the Western Xia side, maybe there is no return.

In addition, Lin Zhao also thought of one thing in an instant. There is nothing special about the peace talks on this trip, and it is just a step-by-step process. What he cares about is how to rescue Zhe Wenxin, and it is also for this reason that people take Li Donglin there. Let Liu Changzuo go, do you have to tell him the secrets? Can he be trusted?

Although there is a friendship between Dashun City and fighting side by side, after all, it is not his own person, and the friendship is not yet deep to that extent. How many people can keep their promises to Wang Shao and keep their mouths shut? It's not that Lin Zhao doesn't believe Liu Changzuo. It's just that the stakes are very important, and there is no room for the slightest mistake, so Lin Zhao has some doubts in his heart, and this candidate can only be considered separately.

"Let Ah Chang go, he is not a soldier in the army, and it will not be eye-catching to go to Suizhou!" Lin Zhao thought about it, and he could only let Achang from Fuzhou go, at least he could keep it a secret. Ah Chang is a servant of the close confidant of the broken family, and it is more convenient to act in private, and there is no problem with his ability to do these things.

Liu Changzuo nodded lightly, with a slightly interesting apology on his face. To tell the truth, he really doesn't want to go to Suizhou, just serve as a guard general, and there is no need to be in danger. He could feel Lin Zhao's intentions to some extent, but he didn't seem to have that need, so he could only say sorry for some things! Of course, today is equivalent to owing Lin Zhao a favor, and he will always have to pay it back in the future!

Immediately, Lin Zhao instructed Ah Chang to secretly go to Suizhou to inquire about the news and see if he could make any gains. Ah Chang is a confidant of Zhe Wenxin, and he is very attentive to rescuing the seven girls, so he immediately took the order and set off to Suizhou secretly. Lin Zhao looked at Ah Chang's departing back, and shook his head helplessly: "Alas, Ah Chang's departure, there will be more people around him who are available, how can this be good?" ”

Thinking that the next destination was Qingjian City, Lin Zhao's heart suddenly moved, and he didn't know if the Seed Master Dao was idle? How about letting him be his sidekick for a few days?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Li Donglin was taken away like this, and as for his entourage, they were thrown in Yanzhou, and Lin Zhao specially instructed Shen Kuo to help take care of them.

As for the owner of the caravan, Li Donglin was very willing, and it was his plan to go to Suizhou. Only when I go there, I may be able to contribute to my son. Only there can I have the opportunity to make meritorious contributions and gain the trust and favor of my son......

As for these jade artifacts and jewelry, as well as the great man of Western Xia, it may really be useful. I just wonder if there is any more detailed news in the follow-up? Maybe there is progress on the sect master's side, but how should the news be delivered to him? Childe really watched too closely.

It seems that he can only wait until Suizhou to find another way, Li Donglin is now a prisoner, and some things can only be taken one step at a time.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Sect Master, Xingqing Mansion just got the news that there are Spirit Fox Guards heading to Suizhou!" Jiang Leiting hurried over and reported a very important piece of news to the Iron Mask Sect Master.

The Spirit Fox Guard is the guard of the Western Xia court, because the members of it are all known for their martial arts masters and quick movements, just like the Spirit Fox, so they got the title of Spirit Fox Guard.

When the Iron Mask Sect Master heard Jiang Leiting's report, he couldn't help but wonder: "Spirit Fox Guard? Who is going to Suizhou? ”

Now, as long as it is news related to Suizhou, they all attach great importance to it, and they will always consider whether it will affect the actions of Gongzi Lin Zhao in Suizhou. The Spirit Fox Guardian is dispatched, and it must be an extremely important person to protect it, who will it be?

"According to the news from Xingqing Mansion, it may be a lie!"

He is the leader of the Western Xia guards and the Spirit Fox Guards. In addition, he also has another very special identity, he is the guest of the Empress Dowager Liang.

Think about the Empress Dowager Liang's youth and widowhood, how can she endure the loneliness of being alone in an empty house? The land in the northwest is already open to the people, and she holds the power of Western Xia, so what's so difficult about choosing a few male favorites? Even last time, Li Fugui wronged her and chose Lin Zhao, a man from the Great Song Dynasty, as the guest of the scene, which caused a lot of turmoil, and it was not groundless.

This situation is really because the Empress Dowager Liang herself has a criminal record, but she still has to take care of her face, especially her son Li Bingchang is still young, and the Empress Dowager Liang must be restrained, and it is difficult to be fair and honest in some things.

Because he is a guard, he is convenient to enter and exit the palace often, and his appearance must be attractive, so he got the moon first near the water tower and became the guest of the Empress Dowager Liang. The identity of the guard also became an excellent cover-up, avoiding some embarrassment. But it is impossible for this kind of thing to be airtight, and the whole of Xixia knows about it, but it is just tacit!

In this way, the status and role of the reckless Meng in Western Xia have also undergone subtle changes! Its status and influence are somewhat similar to those of Zhang Changzong and Zhang Yizhi's brothers during the Wu Zhou period.

Especially after the Empress Dowager Liang entrusted her younger brother Liang Yibury with a heavy responsibility, Liang Yibury also attracted a lot of slander and formed an interest group. makes the authority in the hands of the reckless Meng more heavy, and he can be regarded as the number one person in Western Xia. Especially in the case of Liang Yi's burial and capture, he is the most trusted right and left hand of the Empress Dowager Liang, and now what is the situation when he wants to go to Suizhou?

The Iron Mask Sect Master pondered for a moment and wondered, "Could it be that Empress Dowager Liang asked him to come to the peace talks?" ”

Jiang Leiting shook his head and said, "But I heard that the peace talks on the Western Xia side are an official named Tuoba Shi!" ”

The leader of Western Xia was originally the Tuoba clan, and the surname Li was given by the Li Tang royal family. Of course, in recent years, the Tangut people have clamored for the resumption of Fanli, so many people have restored the Tuoba surname. It can be seen that this Tuoba stone can also be regarded as a Western Xia clan.

"Could it be that Empress Dowager Liang is not worried about Tuoba Stone?" Jiang Leiting guessed.

"It's not for nothing!" The iron-faced sect master said: "After all, Liang Yibury is her own brother, and it is reasonable for Empress Dowager Liang to be uneasy." Meng Meng is her confidant, and she has always been good friends with Liang Yi, so it is more secure and possible for him to sit behind his back. ”

"In this way, Liang Yi is more valuable?" Jiang Leiting smiled and said, "It's just that I came to the West and Suizhou, will it have an impact on Gongzi's actions?" ”

"This ......" the Iron Mask Sect Master said in a deep voice, "It's possible, the situation in Suizhou will definitely be more complicated...... He really has to be careful here, after all, he has a Spirit Fox Guard in his hand......"

"What to do? Remind Childe to be careful? ”

The Iron-Mask Sect Master shook his head and said, "You can prompt, but it's just a reminder to the Western Army, and they will tell the son." Again...... Do you think that the jewelers that Donglin intercepted a few days ago, will their employers be unscrupulous? ”

Jiang Leiting suddenly had an idea, and said suspiciously: "It seems that there is such a possibility!" Those jade and gems are extraordinary, and it is likely that they were falsely given to the Empress Dowager Liang, and now he has come to Suizhou, so he ......"

"Since there is this possibility, find a way to inform Donglin, I believe he knows what to do, a good opportunity, it must not be wasted!"

"Yes!" Jiang Leiting agreed, but he couldn't help scratching his head and complaining, Gongzi looked at it so closely, how should he be interrogated?

"Also, let's all the people and horses in Suizhou move, and fully cooperate with Gongzi and Donglin!" The Iron Mask Sect Master instructed again.

Jiang Leiting took the order, and there was still a slight puzzled look in the eyes of the Iron Mask Sect Master. Is it really just a lie? Could it be...... A bold idea suddenly came to mind.
